A) That the foregoing recitations are true and correct.
B) That based on the evidence presented at the public hearing, the Commission APPROVES
CT 2017-0007/PUD 2017-0006/CDP 2017-0075 -TAMARACK BEACH HOMES, based on the following
findings and subject to the following conditions:
Findings:
Tentative Tract Map
1. 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 five-unit residential air-space
condominium project created through the tentative tract map satisfies all the minimum
requirements of Title 20 and has been designed to comply with other applicable regulations
including the Residential Density-Multiple (RD-M) zone, the Planned Development Ordinance,
Growth Management Ordinance, and the R-15 General Plan Land Use designation.
2. That the proposed project is compatible with the surrounding future land uses since surrounding
properties are developed and are currently designated as R-15 Residential or R-4 Residential in
the General Plan. The subject property is bordered to the north and west by an existing
development of detached air-space condominiums and to the south and east by single-family
residential. Given the existing, surrounding development, the detached air-space residential
condominium 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 all required development standards and design criteria required by the Residential Density-
Multiple (RD-M) Zone and the Planned Development Ordinance are incorporated into the five-
unit residential air-space condominium project without the need for any variances from
development standards.
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 five-unit residential
air-space condominium project has been designed and conditioned so that there are no conflicts
with established easements and ten feet of additional right-of-way is conditioned to be
dedicated along the project's frontage on Tamarack Avenue.
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, if desired.
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 proposed
five-unit residential project is conditioned to pay an inclusionary housing fee for three units, or
five units if building permits for the five-unit project have not been applied for within two years
of demolishing the two existing residential units on-site.
PC RESO NO. 7301 -2-
8. That the design of the subdivision and improvements are not likely to cause substantial
environmental damage nor substantially and avoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat, in
that the five-unit residential air-space condominium project site has been previously graded
and developed with two residential units and is surrounded by existing development.
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.
Planned Development Permit
10. The proposed project is consistent with the general plan, and complies with all applicable
provisions of this chapter, and all other applicable provisions of the Carlsbad Municipal Code, in
that the density of 12.5 dwelling units per acre for the five-unit residential air-space
condominium project is consistent with the R-15 Residential Land Use designation (8-15
du/acre). As discussed in the project staff report, the project is consistent with all minimum
development and design standards applicable to the property as contained in Chapters 21.24
(Residential Density-Multiple (RD-M)) zone and 21.45 (Planned Developments) of the Carlsbad
Municipal Code.
11. The proposed project will not be detrimental to existing uses, or to uses specifically permitted in
the area in which the proposed use is to be located, and will not adversely impact the site,
surroundings, or traffic, in that the five-unit residential air-space condominium project does not
propose or require any variances from standards, is compatible with existing surrounding uses
as permitted by the Residential Density -Multiple (RD-M) and One-Family Residential (R-1)
zones, and does not create any traffic circulation impacts as Tamarack Avenue is adequately
designed to accommodate the 40 Average Daily Trips (ADT) being generated.
12. The project will not adversely affect the public health, safety, or general welfare, in that the five-
unit residential air-space condominium project has been designed to comply with all applicable
development standards to ensure compatibility with surrounding residential uses.
13. The project's design, including architecture, streets, and site layout a) contributes to the
community's overall aesthetic quality; b) includes the use of harmonious materials and colors,
and the appropriate use of landscaping; and c) achieves continuity among all elements of the
project, in that the five-unit residential air-space condominium project is arranged with units
along a private drive aisle that is enhanced by decorative pavers. The two-and three-story
buildings with attached two-car garages are architecturally harmonious with each other and
include a variety of exterior materials and colors. Exterior building materials include horizontal
lapped siding, vertical board and batten siding, and a composite roof. Wood framed deck
railings and decorative door and window trim are provided for each unit. All elements (i.e. site
layout, architecture, landscaping) create continuity in the overall project design.
PC RESO NO. 7301 -3-
Coastal Development Permit
14. That the proposed development is in conformance with the Mello II Segment of the Certified
Local Coastal Program (LCP) and all applicable policies, in that the site is designated R-15
Residential (8-15 du/ac) for multi-family residential development by the Mello II LCP. The
project consists of the demolition of two existing residential units and the construction of five
detached air-space condominiums at a density of 12.5 du/acre on a 0.40 acre previously
developed site. The proposed project is compatible with the surrounding development of
residential structures. The two-and three-story structures will not obstruct views of the
coastline as seen from public lands or the public right-of-way, nor otherwise damage the visual
beauty of the coastal zone. No agricultural uses currently exist on the previously graded site,
nor are there any sensitive resources located on-site. The proposed project is not located in an
area of known geologic instability or flood hazard. Since the site does not have frontage along
the coastline, no public opportunities for coastal shoreline access are available from the subject
site. Furthermore, the residentially designated site is not suited for water-oriented recreation
activities.
15. The proposal is in conformity with the public access and recreation policies of Chapter 3 of the
Coastal Act in that the property is not located adjacent to the shoreline. Therefore, the five-unit
residential air-space condominium project will not interfere with the public's right to physical
access to the ocean. Furthermore, the residentially designated site is not suited for water-
oriented recreation activities.
16. That the project is consistent with the provisions of the Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone
(Chapter 21.203 of the Zoning Ordinance) in that the five-unit residential air-space condominium
project will adhere to the city's Master Drainage Plan, Grading Ordinance, Storm Water
Ordinance, BMP Design Manual and Jurisdictional Runoff Management Program (JRMP) to
avoid increased urban runoff, pollutants, and soil erosion. No steep slopes or native vegetation
is located on the subject property and the site is not located in an area prone to landslides, or
susceptible to accelerated erosion, floods, or liquefaction.
17. 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).
18. The project is not 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).
General
19. 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 July
18, 2018, including, but not limited to the following:
A. Land Use -The five-unit residential air-space condominium project is consistent with
the elements and objectives of the General Plan as discussed in Section "A" of the
project staff report. The five-unit residential project density at 12.5 dwelling units per
acre is within the R-15 Residential density range of 8-15 du/ac. At the GMCP, five
dwelling units would be permitted on this 0.40 net developable acre property.
PC RESO NO. 7301 -4-
Therefore, the residential development complies with the R-15 General Plan Land Use
designation for density.
B. Mobility -The proposed project has been designed to meet applicable circulation
requirements, which include a single driveway access point from Tamarack Avenue. In
addition, the applicant will be required to pay traffic impact fees prior to issuance of a
building permit that will go towards future road improvements.
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 the applicable fire safety requirements.
D. Noise -The project consists of five detached, residential condominiums. A noise study
by Eilar Associates Inc, dated December 28, 2017 was provided. The exterior required
private recreation areas are at or below the maximum 60 dB(a) CNEL noise level and
therefore comply. The windows of each unit will need to be closed to meet a 45 dB(a)
CNEL interior noise level. Therefore, mechanical ventilation is required. In addition,
the project is conditioned to comply with the construction requirements of the
aforementioned noise study.
E. Housing -The five-unit project is conditioned to pay an affordable housing in-lieu fee
on a per unit basis prior to final map approval for three units, or five units if building
permits for the five-unit project have not been applied for within two years of
demolishing the two existing residential units on-site.
20. The project is consistent with the Citywide Facilities and Improvements Plan, the Local Facilities
Management Plan for Zone 1 and all city public facility 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. Park-in-lieu fees are required by Carlsbad Municipal Code Chapter 20.44, and will be
collected prior to issuance of building permit.
C. 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.
D. 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.
21. That the project is consistent with the city's Landscape Manual and Water Efficient Landscape
Ordinance {Carlsbad Municipal Code Chapter 18.50).
22. 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
PC RESO NO. 7301 -5-
documents pursuant to Section 15332, In-fill Development Project, of the state California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, of the state CEQA Guidelines.
23. 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.
