B) That based on the evidence presented at the public hearing, the Commission
RECOMMENDS APPROVAL of RP 16-13/CDP 16-35 – CARLSBAD VILLAGE CENTER, based
on the following findings and subject to the following conditions:
Findings:
Major Review Permit, RP 16-13
1. The Planning Commission finds that the project, as conditioned herein, is in conformance with
the Elements of the city’s General Plan, and the development standards of the Village Review
Zone and the Village Master Plan and Design Manual, based on the facts set forth in the staff
report dated December 6, 2017, including, but not limited to the following:
a. Land Use – The proposed four-story mixed-use development provides mutually supportive
uses in the form of residential, professional office and retail opportunities and reinforces
the pedestrian orientation desired for the downtown area by providing new residents and
employees an opportunity to walk to local shopping, dining, recreation, and mass transit
functions; its close proximity to existing bus routes and train station help to further the goal
of providing new economic and residential development near transportation corridors; and
the project will contribute to the revitalization of the Village area in the form of a new
building in the core of the Village with new commercial lease space, new employment
opportunities and new consumers.
b. Mobility – The proposed project has been designed to meet all of the circulation
requirements, which include vehicular access off the State Street alley. In addition, the
applicant will be required to pay traffic impact fees prior to the issuance of building permits
that will go towards future road improvements. The proposed project is located
approximately ¼ mile from the train/coaster station, which provides service throughout the
day. The project’s close proximity to the transit stop will provide residents with the
opportunity to commute to major job centers, thereby reducing vehicle miles traveled
(VMTs) and their carbon footprint. Furthermore, the project supports walkability and
mobility by locating the project near existing goods and services within the Village. Finally,
the existing street trees along State Street and Carlsbad Village Drive will be retained. The
project proposes to add raised planters and potted plants adjacent to the retail storefronts
to further enhance the streetscape and promote livable streets.
c. Public Safety – The proposed structural improvements are required to be designed in
conformance with all seismic design standards. In addition, the proposed project is
consistent with all of the applicable fire safety requirements. Further, the project is
conditioned to develop and implement a program of “best management practices” for the
elimination and reduction of pollutants which enter into and/or are transported within
storm drainage facilities.
d. Noise – The proposed project is consistent with the Noise Element of the General Plan in
that the noise study prepared by Birdseye Planning Group (July 2016) determined that the
worst-case cumulative noise level from the surrounding roadways and the railroad was 64.1
and 70.7 dBA CNEL, respectively, at the property line. The proposed project is designed to
meet or exceed California Energy Code Title 24 standards, which require construction
methods and materials resulting in energy efficient structures and up to a 30 dBA reduction
in exterior noise levels. Assuming the windows are closed and with the inclusion of
mechanical ventilation (proposed as part of the project), interior noise levels would be
reduced to less than the 45 dBA CNEL interior noise level threshold.

e. Housing – The proposed project is consistent with the Housing Element of the General Plan
and the city’s Inclusionary Housing Ordinance, in that as less than seven (7) units are
proposed, the inclusionary requirements may be satisfied through the payment to the city
of an in-lieu inclusionary housing fee. The project is conditioned to require the payment of
the applicable housing in-lieu fee for five (5) units prior to issuance of the building permit.
f. Land Use District 1 Standards – The project as designed is consistent with the development
standards for Land Use District 1, the Village Design Guidelines and all other applicable
regulations set forth in the Village Master Plan and Design Manual as discussed in the
project staff report. The project is not requesting any deviations to the development
standards.
Coastal Development Permit, CDP 16-35
2. That the proposed development is in conformance with the Village Area Segment of the Certified
Local Coastal Program and all applicable policies in that the proposed four-story, multi-family
building will not obstruct views of the coastline as seen from public lands or the public right of
way or otherwise damage the visual beauty of the coastal zone. The project is consistent with
the surrounding development in that the ground floor retail uses complement the retail uses in
the commercial core and the residential units proposed on the upper three (3) floors are
stepped back from the first floor to reduce the mass and scale of the building. In addition, the
proposed architectural style, while contemporary in nature, complements the existing
architectural style of the adjacent one and two-story buildings to the north. No agricultural uses
currently exist on the site, and the property is not within the Coastal Agricultural Overlay Zone
that would require mitigation for conversion to urban uses. There are no sensitive coastal
resources within the property and it is not located in an area of known geologic instability or
flood hazard.
3. The proposal is in conformity with the public access and recreation policies of Chapter 3 of the
Coastal Act in that no public opportunities for coastal shoreline access are available from the
subject site and no public access requirements are required for the project since it is not located
between the first public road and the ocean.
4. The project is consistent with the provisions of the Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone
(Chapter 21.203 of the Zoning Ordinance) in that the project will adhere to the city's Master
Drainage Plan, Grading Ordinance, Storm Water Ordinance, and the National Pollutant
Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) requirements to avoid increased urban run-off,
pollutants and soil erosion. In addition, the site is flat and does not contain natural steep slopes
greater than 25 percent gradient; no native vegetation will be removed; and the site is not
located in an area prone to landslides, or susceptible to accelerated erosion, floods or
liquefaction.
5. The project is not located in the Coastal Agriculture Overlay Zone, according to Map X of the Land
Use Plan, certified September 1990 and Agricultural Conversion Mitigation Fees are not required
in accordance with the provisions of the Coastal Agriculture Overlay Zone (Chapter 21.202 of the
Zoning Ordinance).
6. The project is not located between the sea and the first public road parallel to the sea and
therefore, is not subject to the provisions of the Coastal Shoreline Development Overlay Zone
(Chapter 21.204 of the Zoning Ordinance).

7. The Developer/Property owner qualifies to participate in the Parking In-Lieu Fee Program and
participation in the program will satisfy the parking requirements for the project. Justification for
participation in the Parking In-Lieu Fee Program is contained in the following findings:
a. The project is consistent with Village Review Master Plan and Design Manual in that the
project assists in satisfying the goals and objectives through the following actions 1) the
mixed-use project stimulates property improvements and new development in the Village
by constructing a new permitted mixed-use building in an area with a mix of dated buildings
and increasing the intensity of development within the Village; 2) it establishes Carlsbad
Village as a quality shopping, working and living environment by providing new
employment opportunities; increasing the number, quality, diversity and affordability of
housing units within the Village; and reinforcing pedestrian retail continuity within the
Village commercial areas; and 3) improves the physical appearance of the Village Area by
developing the northwest corner of Carlsbad Village Drive and State Street with a new
building that adheres to the land use regulations and design guidelines set forth for the
area;
b. The proposed use is consistent with the goals and objectives set forth for Land Use District 1
of the Village Master Plan and Design Manual in that the mixed-use development not only
provides mutually supportive uses in the form of residential, professional office and
commercial retail uses along Carlsbad Village Drive and State Street, but reinforces the
pedestrian orientation desired for the downtown area by providing new residents and
employees an opportunity to walk to local shopping, dining, recreation, and mass transit
functions; furthermore, its close proximity to existing bus routes and mass transit help to
further the goal of providing new economic and residential development near
transportation corridors; and lastly, it will contribute to the revitalization of the Village area
in the form of a new building in the core of the Village with new commercial lease space,
new employment opportunities and new consumers;
c. Adequate parking is available within the Village to accommodate the project's parking
demands in that based on the most recent parking study (Kimley Horn, September 2017),
the average occupancy for all public parking lots is 51.1 percent. The single highest
measurement of occupancy was on a weekday afternoon in May 2016, wherein the
occupancy rate was 70 percent. This utilization ratio allows for continued implementation
of the parking in-lieu fee program because it is less than the 85 percent threshold for
maximum utilization set by the City Council; and
d. The In-Lieu Fee Program has not been suspended or terminated by the City Council.
City Council Policy No. 43, Allocation for Excess Dwelling Units
8. That pursuant to CMC Section 21.85.110, for all qualifying residential development less than
seven (7) units, the inclusionary housing requirement may be satisfied through the payment of
an inclusionary housing in-lieu fee. The proposal to construct five (5) multi-family apartments
has been conditioned to pay the applicable housing in-lieu fee for five units prior to issuance of
the building permit.
9. That the project location and density are compatible with the existing adjacent residential
neighborhoods and/or nearby existing or planned uses in that mixed use buildings up to 45 feet
in height with a density of 28-35 dwelling units per acre are permitted by right in Land Use
District 1 of the Village Master Plan. Furthermore, the project will provide positive support for
the commercial uses in the core of the Village.

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 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 0.17 acres, the proposed mixed use project, which
includes five (5) multi-family apartments, has a density of 29.4 dwelling units per acre. The
proposed project is consistent with the intent of Land Use District 1 of the Village Master Plan
and will contribute toward the overall revitalization of the Village Area.
11. That there are an adequate number of units in the Excess Dwelling Unit Bank in the Northwest
Quadrant to allocate 5 units. Per the city’s Quadrant Dwelling Unit Report (latest available
dated September 2017), 584 units remain available for allocation in the Village.
General
12. The project is consistent with the City-Wide Facilities and Improvements Plan, the Local Facilities
Management Plan for Zone 1 and all city public policies and ordinances. The project includes
elements or has been conditioned to construct or provide funding to ensure that all facilities and
improvements regarding: sewer collection and treatment; water; drainage; circulation; fire;
schools; parks and other recreational facilities; libraries; government administrative facilities; and
open space, related to the project will be installed to serve new development prior to or
concurrent with need. Specifically,
a. The project has been conditioned to provide proof from the Carlsbad Unified School District
that the project has satisfied its obligation for school facilities.
b. The Public Facility fee is required to be paid by Council Policy No. 17 and will be collected prior
to the issuance of building permit.
c. The Local Facilities Management fee for Zone 1 is required by Carlsbad Municipal Code
Section 21.90.050 and will be collected prior to issuance of building permit.
13. That the project is consistent with the city’s Landscape Manual and Water Efficient Landscape
Ordinance (Carlsbad Municipal Code Chapter 18.50).
14. That 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 categorically exempt from the requirement for the preparation of environmental
documents pursuant to Section 15332, In-fill Development Project, of the state California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines.
15. 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.
Conditions:
NOTE: Unless otherwise specified herein, all conditions shall be satisfied prior to the issuance of a
grading or building permit, whichever occurs first.
