Findings:
1. The Planning Commission finds that the project, as conditioned herein, is in conformance with
the Elements of the City’s General Plan, based on the facts set forth in the staff report dated
January 18, 2017 including, but not limited to the following:
a. Goal 2-G.3: Promote infill development that makes efficient use of limited land supply,
while ensuring compatibility and integration with existing uses. Ensure that infill
properties develop with uses and development intensities supporting a cohesive
development pattern. The applicant is proposing to redevelop an infill site that is
underutilized as it relates to density. The 24-unit affordable apartment building is an
appropriate location as it is compatible with existing residential uses, including multi-
family on Oak Avenue. The location of the project site is in walking distance to
commercial services, employment opportunities and public transit.
b. Goal 10-G.3: Sufficient new, affordable housing opportunities in all quadrants of the city
to meet the needs of current lower and moderate income households and those with
special needs, and a fair share proportion of future lower and moderate income
households. The proposed project will provide 24 affordable housing units dedicated
to person who are in the very low to extremely low income level bracket for the San
Diego County area median income level.
c. Policy 10-P.19: Adhere to City Council Policy Statement 43 when considering allocation
of “excess dwelling unit” for the purpose of allowing development to exceed the Growth
Management Control Point (GMCP) density, as discussed in Section 10.3 (Resources
Available). With limited exception, the allocation of excess dwelling units will require
provision of housing affordable to lower income households. The 24-unit affordable
apartment project will have housing units available to very low and extremely low
income households. Furthermore, the project site is located in an area that is in close
proximity to public transit, employment opportunities and commercial support
services.
d. Policy 6-P.28: Encourage physical planning and community design practices that deter
crime and promote safety. The project has been designed to prevent crime and has
incorporated design review recommendations from the Police Department. For
example the courtyard common area is located in an area that provides maximum
surveillance from windows and balconies of the units on the second and third floors.
Additionally, the parking area will be gated and secured 24 hours a day.
e. Goal 5-G.2: Ensure that new development is compatible with the noise environment, by
continuing to use potential noise exposure as a criterion in land use planning. Policy 5.P.2:
Require a noise study analysis be conducted for all discretionary development proposals
located where projected noise exposure would be other than “normally acceptable.” A
noise study was prepared by Ldn Consulting Inc. (May 6, 2016) and determined that a
Sound Transmission Class (STC) rating of 34 will be needed for glass assemblies for units
facing Interstate 5 to reduce the interior noise levels below 45 dBA CNEL. The
remainder of the units, set back from the freeway, will need glass assemblies having an
STC rating of 31. Necessary noise mitigation measure are required and included as a
condition of approval.
f. Policy 3-P.5: Require developers to construct or pay their fair share towards
improvements for all travel modes consistent with the Mobility Element, the Growth
Management Plan, and specific impacts associated with their development. The
applicant will be required to pay traffic impact fees prior to issuance of building permit
that will go towards future road improvements.

2. That the requested development or use is properly related to the site, surroundings and
environmental settings, is consistent with various elements and objectives of the General Plan,
will not be detrimental to existing development or uses or to development or uses specifically
permitted in the area in which the proposed development or use is to be located, and will not
adversely impact the site, surroundings or traffic circulation, in that the project site is located
within an urbanized area and involves the redevelopment of a flat infill lot which is located in
close proximity to commercial/retail services, professional offices, social and community
services, and public transportation. The proposed 24-unit multi-family residential use will not
be detrimental to existing uses or to uses specifically permitted in the area in which the use is
located in that multi-family residential is a use permitted within the Residential-Density
Multiple (RD-M) Zone and is compatible with other residential uses surrounding the project site.
The project exceeds the density permitted by the Growth Management Control Point for the R-
30 General Plan Land Use designation by 13 units, however, the project satisfies the criteria set
forth in Chapter 21.53 and City Council Policy No. 43 for allowing a density increase in that the
project will be income restricted to very low and extremely low income households.
3. That the site for the intended development or use is adequate in size and shape to accommodate
the use, in that the 24-unit affordable apartment project complies with all of the minimum
development standards of the Residential-Density Multiple (RD-M) Zone and Carlsbad
Municipal Code, except for a requested development standards modification to allow parking
in the front yard setback and for a reduction in the required number of parking spaces.
Justification for allowing the development standards modification is further discussed in finding
number six of this resolution.
4. That all yards, setbacks, walls, fences, landscaping, and other features necessary to adjust the
requested development or use to existing or permitted future development or use in the
neighborhood will be provided and maintained, in that the 24-unit affordable apartment project
complies with all of the minimum development standards of the Residential-Density-Multiple
(RD-M) Zone and the Carlsbad Municipal Code, except for a requested development standards
modification to allow parking in the front yard setback and for a reduction in the required
number of parking spaces. Justification for allowing the development standards modification
is further discussed in finding number six of this resolution. Landscaping throughout the project
site will be provided consistent with the requirements of the city’s Landscape Manual. In
addition to the above, existing privacy fences will be maintained or replaced consistent with
the development standards in the zoning ordinance.
5. That the street systems serving the proposed development or use is adequate to properly handle
all traffic generated by the proposed use, in that the 24-unit affordable apartment project will
take access off of Oak Avenue, which is identified as a Village Street in the Mobility Element of
the city’s General Plan. Harding Street is designed to adequately handle the 144 Average Daily
Trips (ADT) generated by the project. Harding Street is already fully improved with pavement,
curb, gutter and sidewalk. The project will reconstruct portions of the curb, gutter and sidewalk
along the project frontages due to the new driveway entrance.
6. That with the application of the development standards modifications, the site is physically
suitable for the type and density of the development since the site is adequate in size and shape
to accommodate residential development at the density proposed. Development standards
modifications are appropriate for the site in that:
a. An increase in the allowed density from 30 dwelling units per acres to 55 dwelling units
is necessary to make the project financially feasible for the developer as the units will

be subsidized in order to allow for households that meet the very low and extremely
low income levels to live within the proposed project. The site is an appropriate
location for this type of development and density as it is in close proximity to
commercial/retail, professional offices, social and community services, and public
transportation.
b. The proposal to allow a standard and accessible parking space to be located within the
front yard setback is supported in order to meet American with Disabilities Act (ADA)
requirements. One accessible parking space must be provided onsite for access to the
office and lobby. The parking garage will not be accessible to visitors because the
security gate will be closed 24 hours a day. The standard parking space allows visitors
who aren’t using the accessible parking space to park off-street when visiting the office
or residents.
c. The proposal to reduce the required parking spaces from 43 to 23 is supported by the
parking study prepared by Kimley-Horn (August 26, 2016). The development will serve
homeless veterans and veterans in the very low to extremely low income bracket.
These population groups are less likely to have access to a vehicle for economic reasons.
Field observations of affordable housing sites in the area with similar access to goods
and services show a reduced need for parking compared to market rate residential
developments. Based on these observations, Kimley-Horn suggests a parking ratio of
0.5 space per studio/one bedroom unit, and 1 space per unit for two and three bedroom
units. This recommendation would require 13 parking spaces for the proposed
affordable apartment project.
7. That the proposed project helps achieve the city’s affordable housing goals as set forth in the
Housing Element of the General Plan by providing an affordable apartment project with 100%
of the units designated as affordable to very low and extremely low income households. Per
the Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA), the City of Carlsbad is expected to produce
912 housing units for very low income households for the reporting period of January 1, 2010
to December 31, 2020. As of the latest Housing Element Progress Report for 2015, 35 units for
very low income households have been permitted with 877 units remaining. The proposed 24-
unit affordable apartment project will reduce the amount of remaining units and help the city
achieve its affordable housing goals.
8. That the Housing Policy Team has reviewed the applicant’s pro forma and has recommended
that the density increase is necessary to make the project feasible and to allow the project to
be developed to satisfy the City’s need to provide housing which is affordable to very low and
extremely low income households.
City Council Policy 43, Allocation for Excess Dwelling Units
9. That the project location and density are compatible with the existing adjacent residential
neighborhoods and/or nearby existing or planned uses in that the project includes a request for
an increase in the allowed density from 30 dwelling units per acre to 55 dwelling units per acre
pursuant to CMC Chapter 21.53.120. The project meets all applicable findings required of the
proposed density increase. Surrounding land uses include a multi-tenant commercial center to
the north, a single-family residential use to the east which is proposed to be condemned to
accommodate the Interstate 5 widening, single-family residential on the property to the south,
and a two-story multi-family residential building to the west. The proposed three-story 24 unit
apartment project is compatible with the surrounding land uses.

10. That the project location and density are in accordance with the applicable provisions of the
General Plan and any other applicable planning document, in that dense residential uses are
encouraged in the Barrio in the Housing Element of the General Plan because of the connection
to commercial services in the Village, as well as easy access to nearby public transit services and
Interstate 5. The site is identified in Figure 10-1 of the General Plan as an underutilized site for
lower and moderate income housing. The requested increase in allowed density is consistent
with the provisions of CMC Chapter 21.53.120.
11. That there are an adequate number of units in the Excess Dwelling Unit Bank to remove 13
units. Per the city’s most recent Quadrant Dwelling Unit Report in November of 2016, 564 units
remain available for allocation in the Village.
General
12. That the project is consistent with the City’s Landscape Manual and Water Efficient Landscape
Ordinance (Carlsbad Municipal Code Chapter 18.50).
13. The City Planner has determined that the project belongs to a class of projects that the State
Secretary for Resources has found do not have a significant impact on the environment, and it is
therefore exempt from the requirement for preparation of environmental documents pursuant
to Section 15194 of the State CEQA Guidelines as an affordable housing project. In making this
determination, the City Planner has found that the criteria listed in Section 15192 of the State
CEQA Guidelines have been met.
14. The Planning Commission has reviewed each of the exactions imposed on the Developer
contained in this resolution, and hereby finds, in this case, that the exactions are imposed to
mitigate impacts caused by or reasonably related to the project, and the extent and the degree
of the exaction is in rough proportionality to the impact caused by the project.
