WHEREAS, said verified application constitutes a request for a Tentative Tract Map and Site
Development Plan as shown on Exhibit(s) "A" -"0000" dated June 17, 2020, on file in the Planning
Division CT 2019-0003/SDP 2019-0004 -CARLSBAD STATION, as provided by Chapters 20.12, 21.06,
21.35, and 21.86 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission did, on June 17, 2020, hold a duly noticed public hearing as
prescribed by law to consider said request; and
WHEREAS, at said public hearing, upon hearing and considering all testimony and arguments, if
any, of persons desiring to be heard, said Commission considered all factors relating to the Tentative Tract
Map and Site Development Plan.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED by the Planning Commission of the City of Carlsbad
as follows:
A) That the foregoing recitations are true and correct.
B) That based on the evidence presented at the public hearing, the Commission
RECOMMENDS APPROVAL of CT 2019-0003/SDP 2019-0004 -CARLSBAD STATION,
based on the following findings and subject to the following conditions:
Findings:
Tentative Tract Map CT 2019-0003
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 ofthe Carlsbad Municipal Code, and the State Subdivision Map Act,
PC RESO NO. 7375 -3-
and will not cause serious public health problems, in that the proposed 83 condominium units
comprising 79 residential units and four commercial units satisfy all minimum requirements of
Titles 20 and 21 with respect to uses, public facilities, access, parking and setbacks; and is
consistent with the General Plan as described below and in the project staff report dated June
17, 2020. Pursuant to Chapter 21.86 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code {CMC), a density bonus
waiver is requested from the Village & Barrio Master Plan (VBMP), Village Center District,
Section 2.71{1){1), provision that new ground floor street frontage uses shall occupy more than
one-half of the habitable space developed on the ground floor. The findings for approval to
support this modification can be made as provided below. A density bonus incentive is also
being requested for the withdrawal of 79 units from the Excess Dwelling Unit Bank as discussed
below. Although the project's density of 44.9 dwelling units per acre is above the maximum V-
B density of 35 du/ac, the 79-unit mixed-use project can be found consistent with the General
Plan Land Use Policies as discussed below.
2. That the proposed project is compatible with the surrounding future land uses in that the
proposed mixed-use project is a permitted use within the Village Center {VC) District of the
Village and Barrio Master Plan {VBMP) and is compatible with the other commercial and
residential uses surrounding the project site. The adjacent properties are also located within
the VC District of the VBMP. Given the variety of existing uses within the vicinity of the project
site, which include multi-story residential and commercial developments, as well as the wide
variety of uses permitted in the surrounding VC District, the proposed 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 proposed project entails a request to construct mixed-use buildings which include 79
residential units. Pursuant to the Village & Barrio Maser Plan, the maximum number of units
for a 1.75-acre parcel at 35 dwelling units per acre is 62. In order to construct 79 units, the
applicant is requesting approval of a density bonus pursuant to CMC Chapter 21.86, the
Residential Density Bonus and Incentives or Concessions Ordinance. CMC Chapter 21.86 was
established as a means to implement the goals, objectives and policies of the Housing Element
of the General Plan which includes the provision to provide housing affordable to lower to
moderate income households. Specifically, the applicant is requesting up to a 35% density
bonus pursuant to Table A of CMC Chapter 21.86.040. In exchange for designating 20% of the
base maximum density number of units,· or 12 units, as inclusionary units, the developer is
entitled to a 35% density bonus. The inclusionary apartments are required to be rent-restricted
and affordable to low income households. The project meets the findings for approval of a
density bonus, is consistent with CMC Chapter 21.86 and, therefore, 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
PC RESO NO. 7375 -4-
include operable windows where practicable 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 designate 20% or 12 units as inclusionary units. Further, because ten or more
inclusionary units are required, at least 10% of the lower income units shall have three (3) or
more bedrooms. The project satisfies this requirement with the inclusion of two, three-
bedroom inclusionary units. The city's Housing Policy Team recommended approval of the
request on May 4, 2020. As required by CMC Chapters 21.85 and 21.86, the project has been
accordingly-conditioned to require the approval of an Affordable Housing Agreement and
Density Bonus Housing agreement, respectively, prior to issuance of building permit.
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 SOP 2019-0004
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 project is
consistent with the various elements and objectives of the General Plan as discussed in the
findings below and in the project staff report dated June 17, 2020. The various goals and
objectives of the General Plan will be implemented as the proposed project is consistent with
the General Plan, which allows for commercial and residential uses within the Village-Barrio {V-
B) Land Use designation. Although the project's density of 44.9 dwelling units per acre is above
the maximum V-B density of 35 du/ac, the 79-unit mixed-use project can be found consistent
with the General Plan Land Use Policies as discussed in the findings below and in the project
staff report dated June 17, 2020.
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 proposed mixed use project will not be detrimental to existing uses or to uses specifically
permitted in the area in which the use is located in that mixed-use is a permitted use within the
Village Center {VC) District of the Village and Barrio Master Plan {VBMP) and is compatible with
the other commercial and residential uses surrounding the project site. The adjacent properties
are also located within the VC District of the VBMP. Given the variety of existing uses within the
vicinity of the project site, which include multi-story residential and commercial developments,
as well as the wide variety of uses permitted in the surrounding VC District, the proposed
PC RESO NO. 7375 -5-
project is compatible with existing and future land uses. The proposed mixed-use project will
not adversely impact the site, surroundings, or traffic circulation in that the existing surrounding
streets have adequate capacity to accommodate the 1,615 Average Daily Trips (ADT) generated
by the project, which is a net decrease of 181 ADT below the existing on-site uses that generate
a total of 1,796 ADTs. With the exception of the density bonus waiver from the provision that
new ground floor street frontage uses occupy more than one-half of the habitable space
developed on the ground floor, the project complies with all minimum development standards
of the VC District and the VBMP. The project is adequately parked on-site and will 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 with the exception of the density bonus waiver from the provision that new
ground floor street frontage uses occupy more than one-half of the habitable space developed
on the ground floor, the project complies with all minimum development standards of the VC
District and the VBMP, and all other applicable sections of the Zoning Ordinance, as discussed
elsewhere in the findings and in the project staff report dated June 17, 2020.
13. 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 with the exception of the density bonus
waiver from the provision that new ground floor street frontage uses occupy more than one-
half of the habitable space developed on the ground floor as discussed elsewhere in the findings
and in the project staff report, the project complies with all remaining development standards
(i.e. front, side and rear setbacks, lot coverage, and parking) of the VC District and the VBMP.
Landscaping along the courtyards and outer edges of the property, including street trees with
ground cover in wells along Roosevelt Street and State Street, will be provided consistent with
the requirements of the city's Landscape Manual.
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 mixed-use project will take access from
Roosevelt Street, which is identified as a Village Street. Roosevelt Street is designed to
adequately handle the 1,615 Average Daily Trips (ADT) generated by the project, which is a net
decrease of 181 ADT below the existing on-site uses that generate a total of 1,796 ADTs.
Roosevelt Street is improved with pavement, curb, gutter, and · minimum-width sidewalk. The
project will reconstruct portions of the curb, gutter and sidewalk along the project frontage to
accommodate project access into a below-grade parking garage. Street trees in wells and bicycle
racks will be provided within a new 10.5-foot-wide sidewalk. The project will also reconstruct
portions of the curb, gutter and sidewalk along the State Street project frontage to
accommodate street trees and bicycle racks within a new 12-foot-wide sidewalk.
City Council Policy No. 43, Allocation for Excess Dwelling Units
15. That the City's Housing Policy Team recommended approval of the request for an allocation of
79 units from the EDUB on May 4, 2020.
16. That pursuant to CMC Chapter 21 .85, a minimum of 15% of all proposed ownership units in any
residential project are required to be restricted to lower income households. The proposal to
construct 79 condominium units includes 15% of the total number of units (i.e., 12 units) as
inclusionary units. The 12 units will be required to be rented or sold to households earning a
low income level {80% of the San Diego County Area Median Income). As 10 or more units are
PC RESO NO. 7375 -6-
required, at least 10% of the lower income units shall have three (3) or more bedrooms. The
project satisfies this requirement with the inclusion of two, three-bedroom inclusionary units.
In addition, an Affordable Housing Agreement will be recorded prior to issuance of building
permit.
17. 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
up to a 35% density bonus pursuant to CMC Chapter 21.86, Residential Density Bonus and
Incentives or Concessions. The project meets the applicable findings associated with the
proposed density bonus request as described in the findings below. The adjacent properties
are also located within the VC District of the VBMP. Given the variety of existing uses within the
vicinity of the project site, which include multi-story residential and commercial developments,
as well as the wide variety of uses permitted in the surrounding VC District, the proposed four-
story mixed-use project is compatible with existing and future land uses.
18. 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 mixed-use is encouraged in
the urban core in the city's Housing Element and the proposed 35% density bonus is consistent
with the provisions in CMC Chapter 21.86.
19. That there are an adequate number of units in the Excess Dwelling Unit Bank in the Village to
remove 79 units. Per the city's Quadrant Dwelling Unit Report dated April 30, 2020, less any
recent allocations, 528 units remain available for allocation in the Village.
Residential Density Bonus, CMC Chapter 21.86
20. The project is consistent with the provisions of this chapter in that the proposed mixed-use
project includes the requisite 20% of the base maximum density as low income, deed-restricted
housing units. The project meets all of the density bonus housing standards in CMC Section
21.86.090, including but not limited to location of affordable units onsite and near transit,
timing of construction, number and size of bedrooms, and parking. In addition, the allowance
for a waiver from the requirement that new commercial ground floor street frontage uses
occupy more than one-half of the habitable space developed on the ground floor is an allowable
waiver.
21. The requested incentive(s) or concession(s) will result in identifiable, financially sufficient, and
actual cost reductions in that the allocation of excess dwelling units allows for a financially
feasible project by sharing construction costs among all units including the land, permitting and
construction costs. The allowance for a waiver from the requirement that new commercial
ground floor street frontage uses occupy more than one-half of the habitable space developed
on the ground floor allows for a financially feasible project by sharing construction costs among
all units including the land, permitting and construction costs, and allows for the development
of the 79 units including 12 inclusionary units.
22. The requested incentive(s) or concession(s), and/or waiver(s) or reduction(s) of development
standards, if any, will not result in an adverse impact, as defined in paragraph (2) of subdivision
(d) of Section 65589.5 of the California Government Code, to the public health and safety, the
environment, or on any real property that is listed in the California Register of Historical Resources
in that the allowance for a waiver from the requirement that new commercial ground floor
street frontage uses occupy more than one-half of the habitable space developed on the ground
floor will not adversely impact the public's health or safety, the environment or a historic
PC RESO NO. 7375 -7-
resource. The withdrawal of 79 units from the Excess Dwelling Unit Bank is a permitted
incentive for density bonus projects in California pursuant to CMC Chapter 21.86.050 and
Government Code §65915 as discussed in the staff report dated June 17, 2020.
23. The requested incentive(s) or concession(s), and/or waiver(s) or reduction(s) of development
standards is not contrary to state or federal law (Ord. CS-242 §§ 14, 15, 2014; Ord. NS-889, 2008;
Ord . NS-794 § 11, 2006) in that the allowance for a waiver from the requirement that new
commercial ground floor street frontage uses occupy more than one-half of the habitable space
developed on the ground floor is clearly laid out as a waiver for density bonus projects in
California pursuant to CMC Chapter 21.86.060 and Government Code §65915. The withdrawal
of 79 units from the Excess Dwelling Unit Bank is a permitted incentive for density bonus
projects in California pursuant to CMC Chapter 21.86.050 and Government Code §65915 as
discussed in the staff report dated June 17, 2020.
California Environmental Quality Act
24. 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 -In-Fill Development Projects 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.
General
20. 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 and Barrio
Master Plan, based on the facts set forth in the staff report dated June 17, 2020 including, but
not limited to the following:
a. Land Use -The proposal to construct a mixed-use project with 79 residential condominiums
and ground floor commercial would enhance the vitality of the Village by providing new
residential and commercial land uses near the downtown core area. The project reinforces
the pedestrian orientation desired for the downtown area by providing residents an
opportunity to walk to shopping, restaurants, recreation, and mass transit functions. The
project's proximity to existing bus routes and mass transit help further the goal of providing
new economic development near transportation corridors. Overall, the mixed-use project
would contribute toward the revitalization of the Village area.
b. Mobility-The proposed project is located approximately 0.2 miles from the Carlsbad Village
train station, which provides rail and bus service throughout the day. The project's
proximity to the transit station would provide residents with the opportunity to commute
to major job centers, thereby reducing vehicle miles traveled (VMTs) and the carbon
footprint. Furthermore, the project supports walkability and mobility by locating the
project near existing goods and services within the Village.
c. Noise -The proposed project is consistent with the Noise Element of the General Plan in
that the building's design, with windows closed, complies with the requirements of the
noise study (Veneklasen Associates, dated June 21, 2019) and adequately attenuates the
PC RESO NO. 7375 -8-
interior noise levels for the new condominiums to 45 dB(a) CNEL or less (i.e., interior
average noise level). The project is conditioned to provide mechanical ventilation.
d. Housing -The proposed project includes twelve inclusionary units (20 percent) which will
be required to be rented or sold to low-income households. The provision for inclusionary
housing will contribute toward achieving the city's Regional Housing Needs. The project
has been conditioned accordingly to require the approval of an Affordable Housing
Agreement prior to building permit issuance.
e. Public Safety-The proposed structural improvements would be required to meet all seismic
design standards. The Fire Department has reviewed and approved the proposed
conceptual building design with fire sprinklers included throughout the building along with
a wet standpipe per the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 24 standards.
Therefore, the proposed project is consistent with the applicable fire safety requirements.
The project would be required to develop and implement a program of "best management
practices" for the elimination and reduction of pollutants which enter and/or are
transported within storm drainage facilities. The project has been conditioned to pay all
applicable public facilities fees for Zone 1.
f. Village Center (VC) District Standards -The project as designed, with the exception of the
requested waiver from the provision that new commercial ground floor street frontage uses
occupy more than one-half of the habitable space developed on the ground floor which is
clearly laid out as a waiver for density bonus projects in California pursuant to CMC Chapter
21.86.060 and Government Code §65915, is consistent with the development standards for
the VC District, the Village and Barrio Master Plan (VBMP) Design Guidelines and all other
applicable regulations set forth in the VBMP as discussed in the project staff report dated
June 17, 2020 and Attachment 4.
21. 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.
22. 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
PC RESO NO. 7375 -9-
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.
23. This project has been conditioned to comply with any requirement approved as part of the Local
Facilities Management Plan for Zone 1.
24. 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.
25. That the project is consistent with the city's Landscape Manual and Water Efficient Landscape
Ordinance (Carlsbad Municipal Code Chapter 18.50}.
26. 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, or approval of the Final Map, whichever occurs first.
1. If any of the following conditions fail to occur, or if they are, by their terms, to be implemented
and maintained over time, if any of such conditions fail to be so implemented and maintained
according to their terms, the city shall have the right to revoke or modify all approvals herein
granted; deny or further condition issuance of all future building permits; deny, revoke, or further
condition all certificates of occupancy issued under the authority of approvals herein granted;
record a notice of violation on the property title; institute and prosecute litigation to compel their
compliance with said conditions or seek damages for their violation. No vested rights are gained
by Developer or a successor in interest by the city's approval of this Tentative Tract Map and Site
