SUBJECT: La Costa Mobile Homes - Request
for Condemnation Assistance
DISCUSSION:
The owners of the La Costa Mobile Homes property have requested
the City to condemn the section of proposed Las Encinas Road across
the property owned by Paul Ecke. The Road is required for access
to the presently landlocked Mobile Home property.
Construction of the road is a condition of the Conditional Use
Permit authorizing the Mobile Home Park.
The specific action requested is outlined in Exhibit "1". A
sketch of the location is attached as Exhibit 2.
The City Attorney has advised that this would be a legal
condemnation since Las Encinas is a proposed Master Plan street.
The applicants have stated that Mr. Ecke is not opposing the
acquisition and that the condemnation would be a friendly action.
The Road is not needed at this time to serve property other
than that proposed for development by the applicant. It will,
however, open up the lands to the south to possible development.
If the condemnation is approved, it should be subject to Las Encinas
Road being improved to the southerly boundary of the development
concurrently with the development of Phase I.
There are no overpowering reasons to either approve or deny
the request. We believe the Council will be justified to act in
either manner.

Re: Request by Andrew McReynolds, Eminent Domain Action, Las Encinas
Road
Dear Sir:
I represent Andrew McReynolds to whom a conditional use per-
mit has been granted by City Council Resolution No. 1696, for the development
of a mobile home park.
Under the Conditional Use Permit an 84' right of way is to be
dedicated between the southerly boundary of the development and Palomar
Airport Road. A portion of the road as dedicated would cross over land not
owned by Dr. McReynolds.
Negotiations are pending with Mr. Ecke, owner of the other parcel
for a dedication from him in favor of the City. However, it is not known at
this time whether such negotiations will prove successful.
On April 6, 1970 the proposed annexation of the McReynolds Tract
will come on for hearing before the Local Agency Formation Commission. On
the assumption that present negotiations with Mr. Ecke will not consummate,
it is requested that the City of Carlsbad cause an eminent domain proceeding
to be filed for the acquisition of a public right of way across land owned by Mr.
Ecke which would represent an extension of Las Encinas Road.
Enclosed is a plat showing the location of said proposed public
right of way. This location has been discussed on a preliminary basis with
members of the City staff. A legal description will be provided by separate
cover.
The City staff has previously stated that Las Encinas Road is con-
templated as a major arterial to service properties south of Palomar Airport
Road. Because such a road would have an obvious public benefit to the City of
Carlsbad this letter does not attempt to set forth with particularity the public
benefits which would derive from the proposed eminent domain proceeding.
The costs of such eminent domain proceeding would be met by Dr.
McReynolds, and he would also bear the cost of developing that portion of Las
Encinas Road crossing the Ecke property to the width as may be required by
LEON E. CAMPBELL City of Carlsbad

the City at this time.
Dr. McReynolds has no knowledge at this time of any objection
to Las Encinas Road being extended south of Palomar Airport Road in ac-
cordance with said plat and under the conditions of the Conditional Use
Permit.
It is requested that this matter be placed on the next agenda ofthe City Council for consideration and action.
Yours very truly,
LEON E. CAMPBELL
