That the proposed map and the proposed design and improvement of the subdivision as conditioned, is consistent with and satisfies all requirements of the General Plan, any applicable specific plans, Titles 20 and 21 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code and the State Subdivision Map Act, and will not cause serious public health problems, in that the proposed one lot tentative tract map for a 33 airspace condominium subdivision is consistent with the General Plan and satisfies all minimum requirements of the Village Master Plan, and Titles 20 and 21 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code with respect to public facilities, access and parking as discussed in the project staff report. 2. That the proposed project is compatible with the surrounding future land uses since the surrounding properties are developed, are currently designated as Village (V) in the General Plan and are located in Land Use District 2 – Office Support Area, of the Village Master Plan. The subject property is bordered to the north by a parking lot used for the existing project site and single-family and multiple-family residential; to the south by office/commercial and multiple- family development; to the east by a medical office; and to the west by a medical office and senior apartments. The adjacent properties to the north are located within the Multiple-Family Residential (R-3) zone. The properties to the west, east and south are located in Land Use District 2 of the Village Master Plan which allows a wide variety of uses. Multiple-Family Residential is permitted by right in Land Use District 2. Given the existing senior apartments, existing and proposed multiple-family residential development to the west and north, the project is compatible with existing and future land uses. 3. That 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, in that the Village (V) General Plan Land Use designation allows residential development at a density range of 28 to 35 dwelling units per acre. Based on a net acreage of 0.96 acres, the proposed 33 residential condominium units have a density of 34.4 dwelling units per acre. As the proposed project falls within the allowable density range and meets all required development standards, the project is consistent with this finding. 4. That the design of the subdivision or the type of improvements will not conflict with easements of record or easements established by court judgment, or acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of property within the proposed subdivision, in that the project has been designed and conditioned such that there are no conflicts with established easements. 5. That the property is not subject to a contract entered into pursuant to the Land Conservation Act of 1965 (Williamson Act). 6. That the design of the subdivision provides, to the extent feasible, for future passive or natural heating or cooling opportunities in the subdivision, in that structures have been designed to include operable windows on all elevations and balconies to maximize exposure of each unit to natural light and ventilation from nearby coastal breezes. 7. That the Planning Commission has considered, in connection with the housing proposed by this subdivision, the housing needs of the region, and balanced those housing needs against the public service needs of the City and available fiscal and environmental resources in that the applicant proposes to purchase six housing credits within the Tavarua Affordable Housing Project or an PC RESO NO. 7232 -3- 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 alternative solution authorized by the City Council, to satisfy their inclusionary housing obligations prior to the issuance of a building permit. As such, the project has been conditioned to require the approval of an Affordable Housing Agreement prior to approval of the final map. 8. That the design of the subdivision and improvements are not likely to cause substantial environmental damage nor substantially and avoidably injure fish and wildlife or their habitat, in that the previously developed lot is devoid of sensitive vegetation and any natural water features; therefore, the proposed project does not impact any fish, wildlife or habitat. 9. That the discharge of waste from the subdivision will not result in violation of existing California Regional Water Quality Control Board requirements, in that the project has been designed in accordance with the Best Management Practices for water quality protection in accordance with the City’s sewer and drainage standards and the project is conditioned to comply with the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) requirements. 10. That the street systems serving the proposed use is adequate to properly handle all traffic generated by the proposed use, in that the existing street can accommodate the estimated 264 average daily trips (ADTs) and all required public right-of-way has been, or will be, dedicated and has been, or will be, improved to serve the development.

Land Use – The proposed project, which includes the demolition of three existing two-story office/commercial buildings and the construction of 33 new residential condominiums, will enhance the vitality of the Village, specifically Land Use District 2 (Office Support Area), by providing new residential land uses in close proximity to the downtown core area as well as the train station. The project reinforces the pedestrian-orientation desired for the downtown area by providing the residents an opportunity to walk to shopping, recreation, and mass transit functions. The project’s proximity to existing bus routes and mass transit will help to further the goal of providing new economic development near transportation corridors. Further, the proposed project contributes towards the overall goal of creating quality development in that older office/commercial buildings are proposed to be removed and replaced with 33 high-quality residential condominiums which exhibit an architectural design that fits within the existing character of the Village. Overall, the residential project will contribute towards the revitalization of the Village area. b. Circulation – Grand Avenue can accommodate the estimated 264 ADTs.
