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 six-unit residential air-space condominium subdivision is consistent with the General Plan as described below and satisfies all minimum requirements of the Village and Barrio Master Plan, and Titles 20 and 21 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code with respect to public facilities, access and parking as discussed below and in the project staff report dated September 4, 2019. 2. That the proposed project is compatible with the surrounding future land uses since surrounding properties are developed, currently designated as Village-Barrio {VB) in the General Plan and located in the Barrio Center {BC) District or Barrio Perimeter {BP) Districts of the Village and Barrio Master Plan {VBMP). The subject property, which is in the BC District, is bordered to the north by Chase Field {public park) and to the south, east, and west by existing residences. The adjacent properties to the south and west are also located within the BC District. The property to the east is located within the Barrio Perimeter {BP) District of the VBMP which allows a much higher density. Residential uses are permitted by right in the BC District. The proposed six-unit residential air-space 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 the BC District within the VBMP allows residential development at a density range of 8 to 15 dwelling units per acre {du/ac). Based on a net acreage of 0.44 acres, the proposed six-unit residential condominium project has a density of 13.6 du/ac. As the proposed project falls within the higher yet allowable density range and meets all required development standards, the project site will accommodate the proposed density. 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. PC RESO NO. 7346 -2- 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 six-unit residential project can be adequately served by the existing public services, and is conditioned to pay an inclusionary housing fee for five (5) units, or six (6) if building permit(s) not applied for within two years of demolition of existing single-family residence. 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 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. Site Development Plan SDP 2019-0001 10. That the proposed development or use is consistent with the General Plan and any applicable master plan or specific plan, complies with all applicable provisions of Chapter 21.06 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code, and all other applicable provisions of this code, in that the proposed one-lot tentative tract map for a six-unit residential air-space condominium subdivision is consistent with the General Plan as described below and satisfies all minimum requirements of the Village and Barrio 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 dated September 4, 2019. 11. That the requested development or use is properly related to the site, surroundings and environmental settings, 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 consists of the construction of a six-unit residential air-space condominium project on a 0.44-acre site located at 3535 Harding Street within the BC District of the VBMP. The subject property is bordered to the north by Chase Field (public park) and to the south, east, and west by existing residences. The adjacent properties to the south and west are also located within the BC District. The property to the east is located within the BP District of the VBMP which allows a higher density. Residential uses are permitted by right in the BC District. Given the variety of existing uses and districts, the proposed six-unit residential air-space condominium project is compatible with existing and future land uses. The six-unit residential condominium project will not adversely impact the site, surroundings, or traffic circulation in that the existing surrounding streets have adequate capacity to accommodate the 48 Average Daily Trips (ADT) generated by the project. The project complies with all minimum development standards of the BC District and the VBMP, and the project provides adequate parking on-site and does not result in any significant environmental impacts. 12. That the site for the intended development or use is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the use, in that the BC District within the Village and Barrio Master Plan (VBMP) allows residential development at a density range of 8 to 15 dwelling units per acre (du/ac). Based on a net acreage of 0.44 acres, the proposed six-unit residential condominium project has a density PC RESO NO. 7346 -3- of 13.6 du/ac.

In addition, privacy walls/fences on the property will be provided and maintained yet complement the character of the neighborhood. 14. 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 six-unit residential condominium project will take access off of Harding Street, which is identified as a local street, and is designed to adequately handle the 48 Average Daily Trips (ADT) generated by the project. Palm Avenue and Harding Street are already improved with pavement, curb, gutter and sidewalks. City Council Policy No. 43, Allocation for Excess Dwelling Units 15. 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 consists of the construction of a six-unit residential air-space condominium project on a 0.44-acre site located at 3535 Harding Street within the BC District of the VBMP. The subject property is bordered to the north by Chase Field (public park) and to the south, east, and west by existing residences. The adjacent properties to the south, and west are also located within the BC District. The property to the east is located within the BP District of the VBMP which allows a higher density. Residential uses are permitted by right in the BC District. Given the variety of existing uses and districts, the proposed six-unit residential air-space condominium project is compatible with existing and future land uses. The six-unit residential condominium project will not adversely impact the site, surroundings, or traffic circulation in that the existing surrounding streets have adequate capacity to accommodate the 48 Average Daily Trips (ADT) generated by the project. The project complies with all minimum development standards of the BC District and the VBMP, and the project provides adequate parking on-site and does not result in any significant environmental impacts. 16. 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 BC District within the VBMP allows residential development at a density range of 8 to 15 dwelling units per acre. Based on a net acreage of 0.44 acres, the proposed six-unit residential condominium project has a density of 13.6 dwelling units per acre. As the proposed project falls within the higher yet allowable density range and meets all required development standards, the project is consistent with the General Plan and VBMP. 17. That there are an adequate number of units in the Excess Dwelling Unit Bank in the Northwest Quadrant to allocate one (1) unit (net unit increase on-site). Per the city's Quadrant Dwelling Unit Report dated June 18, 2019, 129 units remain available for allocation outside the Village. PC RESO NO. 7346 -4- General 18. The Planning Commission finds that the project, as conditioned herein, is in conformance with the Elements of the city's General Plan and the Village and Barrio Master Plan based on the facts set forth in the Staff Report dated September 4, 2019 including, but not limited to the following: a. Land Use -The proposed project enhances the neighborly community of the Barrio by providing additional multi-family residential options, and a design that is complementary to the area. The Barrio currently enjoys a diverse mix of commercial, single-family and multi-family housing uses. The scale and character of the project is consistent with the Barrio community's character and the development complies with the Village and Barrio Master Plan's intent and standards, including a development of structures that provide a cohesive transition between public and private space. The proposed residences are oriented in that the front entries face Palm Avenue with the garages located at the rear of the property. This orientation in design enhances the walkability of public sidewalks along Palm Avenue by form; residences closer to the public sidewalks create pedestrian-friendly streets and enhance a sense of community. The project reinforces the pedestrian orientation desired for the Barrio by providing residents an opportunity to walk to shopping, recreation, and mass transit. b. Mobility-The proposed project is designed to meet circulation requirements, which include maintaining or enhancing frontage improvements consisting of sidewalks and landscaping and accommodating future bike lane improvement along Harding Street. The proposed project is located approximately one mile from the Carlsbad Village train station which provides rail and bus service throughout the day. The existing and proposed bike lanes along Harding Street and throughout the Barrio and Village provide residents the opportunity to access job centers, thereby offering a method of alternative transportation which reduces vehicle miles traveled (VMTs) and overall carbon footprint. Furthermore, the project supports walkability and mobility by being located near existing goods and services in the Barrio and Village. c. Noise -Based on the noise analysis report (LSA, dated October 2017) which studied short term noise levels during construction, and long term or operational levels, post construction, and determined the proposed project is in compliance with the City of Carlsbad Noise Standards. The project's building design, with the windows closed and mechanical ventilation, adequately attenuates the noise levels for the new condominiums. d. Public Safety -The proposed structures would be required to meet all seismic design standards. In addition, the proposed project is consistent with all applicable fire safety standards as required by State's building and fire codes. The project is required 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. The project has been conditioned to pay all applicable public facilities fees for Zone 1 and meet with the Fire Marshal to determine if public fire hydrants are required. e. Housing -The inclusionary housing requirement may be satisfied through the payment of an in-lieu fee for projects that have less than seven units. Therefore, the project has been conditioned to require the payment of the housing in-lieu fee for six units prior to issuance of a building permit, or payment for five units if building permits are applied for within two years from demolition of the existing single-family residence. PC RESO NO. 7346 -5- 19. 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. 20. 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 preparation of environmental documents pursuant to Section 15332 of the State CEQA Guidelines as an infill development project. In making this determination, the City Planner has found that the exceptions listed in Section 15300.2 of the State CEQA Guidelines do not apply to this project, including historical resources. Specifically, the existing home and detached garage, which are estimated to be 77 years old and are proposed to be demolished, are not identified on a local register of historical resources and a qualified professional has determined they do not meet the criteria for listing on the California Register of Historical Resources. 21. The project has been conditioned to pay any increase in public facility fee, or new construction tax, or development fees, and has agreed to abide by any additional requirements established by a Local Facilities Management Plan prepared pursuant to Chapter 21.90 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code. This will ensure continued availability of public facilities and will mitigate any cumulative impacts created by the project. 22. This project has been conditioned to comply with any requirement approved as part of the Local Facilities Management Plan for Zone 1. 23. That all necessary public facilities required by the Growth Management Ordinance will be constructed or are guaranteed to be constructed concurrently with the need for them created by this project and in compliance with adopted city standards. 24. That the project is consistent with the city's Landscape Manual and Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance {Carlsbad Municipal Code Chapter 18.50). 25. 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.
