I. GENERAL INFORMATION:
A- Request: The applicant requests acceptance of a Final Environ-
mental Report and approval of a Zone Change from A-3(8) (County)
to P-C and a Master Plan for a 717 acre parcel to include an ultimate
total of 3,859 dwelling units and a 125 acre golf course on a oor-
tion of Sections 23,24,25 and 26 in Townshin 12 South, Range 4
West, San Bernardino Base and Meridian in the City of Carlsbad.
B. Background; The subject 717 acre parcel is generally located
north of Alga Road, east of El Camino Real, west of Carrillo
Ranch, and south of the Bressi Ownership.

following laYid uses:
a. East of the flood plan:
Estate Low Density Residential (0-2 families per net
acre)
b. Flood Plain:
Park-, semi-public, open space
c. West of the Flood Plain:

If the flood plain is figured into the overall area, approxi-
mately 2438 dwel 1 ing. units would be permitted. The density
range that would be allowed equals 0-7 families per net acre.
The overall gross density permitted equals 3.4 du/ac..
The applicant proposes an overall gross density of 5.38 du/ac
and a net density of approximately 9.79 du/ac for a total
of 3,859 dwelling units. The density range proposed equals
.93 du/ac to 17.5 du/ac.
D. Publ ic Not i f icati on ; The required public notices
have been published and mailed regarding these items.
II. CONSIDERATION OF E.I.R. NO. 172;
A. Project Description; Other sections of this report and pages
1-4 of the draft E.I.R. provide an adequate description of the proposed
project.
B. Environmental Setting without the Project:
Pages 5-10 of the draft EIR provides this information.
Two items should be emphasized. First, the project site lies within
the Agua Hedionda Watershed. Two creeks, with watershed areas of approximately
280 acres and 2093 acres, cross the property from north to south and drain to the
Batiquitos Lagoon. Additional information regarding this item can be found
in the attached letter from the County Department of Sanitation and Flood Control.
The second item of note is the presence of Coastal Sage Shrub on the site;
flora that is endemic to the north San Diego County region.
C. Identify Environmental Impacts:
Pages 11-17 of the draft EIR describes the environmental impacts expected
to occur as a result of this development. Many of the impacts can not be fully
evaluated until specific development plans are prepared.
These are the three basic impacts expected on the natural environment:
1. The further encroachment into the remaining remnant of Coastal
sage.
2. The recontouring of the natural terrain into terrace'd building
pads. This impact can not be properly assessed prior to the
preparation of a grading plan;
3. Partial channelization and encroachment into the natural flood
plain.
Because of the economic market tha,t this development is, aimed at, the
impacts on public services are expected to be minimal. El Camino Real is capable
of providing adequate access to the site (although there is some question as to
the location and widths on the Master Plan). "Hardware" and "software" services
have previously been extended to serve La Costa, thus diminishing this type of
public service impact (except for the need created for additional police and fire
department personnel to properly serve this increase of area). There is not
Kratter Property
Page 3.
expected to be a conflict with the operation of the Palbmar Airport.
Poinsettia Lane is shown on the Circulation Element of the adopted
General Plan traversing this property from west to east through the center of
the property. The Master Plan makes no provisions for this extension. If this
road is eliminated, there will be an impact on the Carrillo Ranch Master Plan and
the plan would have to be amended. If Poinsettia is to remain, as shown in the .
General Plan, major grading of significant natural slope areas would be required.
D. Adverse and Irreversible Effects of the Project: These impacts are again
reiterated on pages 18-22 of the draft EIR. An additional potential impact is(
discussed in this section - archeological sites on the property.
E. Short and Long Term Use of Land: This information is discussed on pages
22-23 of the draft EIR. - . "
F. Growth Inducement Impact: This impact is adequately described on pages
18-19 of the draft EIR. The expected growth inducement effects caused by this
project alone will basically be limited to the adjacent properties.
G. Mitigative Measures: The following mitigative measures are proposed on
pages 24-27 of the draft EIR:
1. Archeology: A full site investigation should be made
in cooperation with the standards of the San Diego Museum of Man.
2. Density Pistributions: Further studies, including the General
Plan revision, should be completed prior to densities being applied
to specific areas on the Master Plan.
3. Grading Control: Controls suggested on page 25 of the draft
EIR should be implemented as conditions of the Master Plan.
4. Open Space Preservation: Of the two-thirds open space
requirement of the P-C zone, those areas of "natural" open-space should
be distinguished from "man-made" open space and designated on the Master
Plan.
5. Structural Concepts - These controls should be located' in the
C.C. & R's that will accompany the development.
6. School Site Location: The proposed school site location should
be coordinated with the Carlsbad and Richmar Unified School Districts.
Efforts should be made to provide for school needs that will arise as a
result of this development.
7. Circulation: An independent study should be prepared by a
traffic engineer to determine if there is a need for the extension of
Poinsettia Lane and if so, the optimum width and location. The study
should also indicate the required widths and locations of the access
roads to the remainder of the development.
Kratter Property
C O
8. Specific Plans and Tentative Maps: Conditions to mitigate
additional environmental impacts should be placed on future specific
plans and tentative maps for this development.
9. The General Plan:. A Master Plan designating densities and
circulation in this area should be held in abeyance until the completion
and adoption of the revised General Plan.
H. Alternative Choices: Alternatives to the proposed development are
discussed on pages 28-29 of the draft EIR.
I. Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission ACCEPT
this Final Environmental Impact Report analysis, along with the draft EIR
and the comments received from the reviewing agencies, as the Final
Environmental Impact Report for the afore described project known as
the "Kratter Property".
III. CONSIDERATION OF ZONE CHANGE NO. 124
A. Description of Appli cati on: The applicant is requesting approval
of a pre-annexational zone change from A-3-8 (County) to P-C (Planned
Community). Approval of this reclassification would become effective upon
the date that the subject property is annexed into the City of Carlsbad and,
because of the nature of this zone, would not allow any specific forms of
development prior to the approval of a Master Plan, Specific Plan and tentative
map.
B. Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission
recommend to the City Council that Zone Change No. 124 BE APPROVED. Justification
is based upon:
1. P-C zoning is the best way to assure the City proper controls
over the development of this area.
2. P-C zoning, by itself, does not establish any commitment
to density or design; it only establishes a concept of development.
3. P-C zoning, by itself, would not have an adverse impact on the
environment.
An alternative to Staff's recommendation would be to table or deny
this application pending the completion of the revised General Plan and the
studies recommended in the Final Environmental Impact Report.
IV. CONSIDERATION OF MASTER PLAN NO. 128
A. Description of Project: The master plan indicates two degrees
of design detai1. The golf course, clubhouse facilities, access roads and single
family subdivision portion of the development are indicated rather specifically
on the plan. The remaining areas, including areas of varying residential
densities, a school site, a commercial/recreation area, and open space areas,
are schematically delineated on the plan. Further, description, in addition
to the attached Master Plan, has already been discussed. Some important aspects
of the Master Plan that should be reemphasized include:
Kratter Property
Page 5.
1. Circulation:
a. No provision has been made on the proposed Master Plan
for the extension of Poinsettia Lane as shown on the
adopted General Plan.
b. No provision has been made on the proposed Master
Plan for the collector street (84' R.O.W.) running
north of the extension of Poinsettia as shown on the
adopted General Plan.
C. The 60 ft. width of the private streets shown on the
proposed Master Plan are questionable, as to whether they>
can adequately handle the internal traffic load of this
development.
2. General Plan:
a. The adopted General Plan would permit a total of 2438
dwelling units in this area; the developer proposes 3859 dwelling
units.
b. The specific density ranges permitted by the adopted General
Plan are 0-7 families per net acre; the developer proposes
a density range of .93 to 17.5 d.u./acre.
c. The developer proposes a 22.6 acre commercial area on the
site; the adopted General Plan does not designate a
commercial area in this location.
d. The City is currently in the process of revising its
General Plan (it should be noted at this point that La
Costa to the south, was approved with a gross density of
6.8 d.u./acre and Carrillo Rancho to the east was approved
with a gross density of 5.3 d.u./acre).
B. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: There are four alternative courses of action that the
Planning Commission can take on the application before them. They are:
1. Recommend approval of the application as it is now, with no changes.
2. Deny the application.
3. Table the application until the revised General Plan has been
adopted.
4. Recommend approval of a Master Plan as long as it conforms to
the density and circulation requirements of the existing
General Plan. This alternative would require a continuance of
one month to allow the applicant sufficient time to submit a
revised Master Plan, and give Staff adequate time to review
said plan.
Staff Recommends alternative No. 4,
1973 is requested.

SUBJECT: Kratter Property MP-128, ZC-124
We have reviewed subject land development project as requested^ in your letter
of 6 June 1973- The property is located on the north side of Alga Road, just
easterly of El Camino Real.
Although the property is in the City of Carlsbad, all drainage and flood
control facilities are to be maintained by the San Diego County Flood Control
District. Therefore these facilities must conform to the Flood Control District's
standards (except for street surface drainage systems) and be approved by the
District prior to construction.
Two natural swales draining watershed areas of about 280 acres and 2,093 acres
converge in the middle of the property and continue to the south of the property.
Therefore a good portion of the low area is subject to flood hazard.
The proposed plan shows numerous residential lots that appear to encroach upon
the flood plain. Extensive grading, engineering and construction will be
required to provide for flood control in the proposed golf course and residences.
All weather cross ings'should be provided for emergency access during floods for
(1) the islands near the convergence of the two watercourses and (2) the easterly
inlet entrance of the swale of 2,093 acres.
The map should show all areas subject to flood hazard and a flowage easement
should be granted to the San Diego County Flood Control District to provide for
the perpetual conveyance of flood waters. In the northerly portion of the
project the map should show how flood waters would be conveyed under the proposed
street in the low point of the natural swale.
All building pads should be elevated above the 50-year flood and if necessary
fill slopes protected from erosion.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT
Site Description
The applicant, Marvin S. Kratter, is proposing a
planned community development for the 717-acre parcel
located north of Alga Road, east of El Camino Real, west
of Carrillo Ranch, and south of Bressi Ownership in
northern San Diego County near Carlsbad city limits.
It is accessible from El Camino Real.
The property is currently zoned (San Diego County)
A-l-(8) (agricultural zoning, eight-acre minimum lot
size) and is presently in an undeveloped state excepting
the farming operations and single house on the property.
La Costa, a planned community having a density of less
than five dwelling units per acre, is located to the
south. To the east is Carrillo Rancho Partnership property
which will be developed as a planned community with a
density of 5.8 dwelling units per acre. The remaining
portion of the Bressi property, which is currently being
used for agricultural purposes, is located to the north.
Project Description
The applicant has requested a pre-annexational change
of zone from (San Diego County) A-l-(8) to City of Carlsbad
o
PROJECT LOCATION
Planned Community (P-C) zone to facilitate the develop-
ment of a 717-acre parcel to include an ultimate total
of 3,859 dwelling units and a 125-acre golf course»with
club house facilities. The gross acre dwelling unit
density would be 5.4 units per acre, and the net acre
density would be |97T9^|anits per acre. Densities would
vary throughout the residential areas of the property.
The remaining 213 "acres will-be used for a school site
(10.2 acres), golf course and facilities (125 acres),
club house, tennis courts, etc. (13,3 acres), and the.
remainder, including private roads and open space (65.5
acres). Access to the property will be via El Camino
Real, Alga Road, and Zodiak Street (La Costa).
A section of this development is devoted to lot
sales. The prices of these lots will begin at $30,OOP
and range to $30,000. „The prices for a unit in the
condominium section will begin around $45,000. These
residential units are proposed to provide additional
housing for potential residents of the City of Carlsbad.
At present the architectural theme or type of
living accommodations has not been determined, nor has
a time schedule for completion. The existing slopes
will not be graded to more than 15% of slope. Open
space will be provided by the City of Carlsbad Planned
Community (P-C) Ordinance.

THE PRESENT ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING
Climate
The climate of the proposed site is dry, steppe
and hot with winter precipitation and dry summers.
The sparce rainfall that averages about twelve inches
annually, falls mostly in the period from October through
May, with rainfall during other months being rare. Rain-
fall is highly variable from season to season and may
range from four to five inches to over twenty-five inches.
The site is influenced by daytime on-shore breezes
and nighttime breezes which blow out to sea.
Geology and Soils
The project site lies within the geologic area of
coastal plain terraces which in the case of the project
site, consists of undivided sandstone and alluvium.
The soils are highly diverse throughout the property,
consisting of various clays, loamy alluvial, and sandy
loam. The alluvial soils are particularly suited for
agricultural uses.
Hydrology & Topography
The project site lies within the "Agua Hedionda
Watershed" that drains toward and into Bautiquitos
Lagoon. Two reservoirs at the north and east sections

of the property control the intermittant flow of the two
/**""• intersecting creeks that feed the valley. The acquifer
properties of the valley are insignificant since irrigation
and ground water activity have been deemphasized through
the changing use of land in the area. The intermittant
it
stream pattern in the area is^dendritic while eroding
the sedimentary rock formation into disected terraces.
Runoff into and through the valley is estimated by the
project engineer at 16QJ)
Flora
The vegetative cover on the site consists mainly of
Coastal Sage Shrub, a stand of Eucalyptus trees near the
existing farmhouse, and agricultural fields used for
^*«*>
^ the cultivation of grain. The sage shrubs, old fields
of wild oats, and grain fields each occupy about a third
of the total 717 acres.
The following list is representative of the flora
which was observed on the project area. The list does
not include all plants which are on the site, but it is
indicative of the plant associations present.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
^*p*-^r
'****' Project Impact on the Natural Environment
As discussed above, the project includes a portion of
a remaining remnant of Coastal Sage. This belt is quickly
being defoliated as a result of excavation for farming and
urban purposes. The Kratter development represents a
further encroachment into this native bio tic community.
It is difficult to assess the impact of this develop-
ment on native vegetation, since, details of grading,
slope treatment, construction methods, and areas of natural
open space are absent from the planning completed so far.
The master plan indicates two degrees of design
detail. The golf course, club house facilities, access
^"^
^, roads, and single family subdivision portion of the develop-
ment are indicated on the plan. The remaining areas
including areas of varying residential densities, a
school site, a commercial-recreation area, and open space
areas are schematically delineated on the plan. It is
within the latter that the critical areas of natural vege-
tation and wildlife habitats occur. Without knowing the
details of design for these areas, the impact of this
project on the natural environment cannot be adequately
assessed.
Since the golf course area and single family residential
area are planned to occupy the area that previously had been
C
o 12
cultivated, it does not represent a significant impact on
the natural environment except where different wildlife
species enjoyed the grain crops as a feeding ground or
nesting place. The fact that the plan is generalized in
terms of the more intense areas of development that are
located in critical areas would indicate a potential
negative impact. The map on page 13 indicates the areas
of significant negative impact to the bio-physical environ-
ment based on the information so far developed in the
planning of the project.
Project Impact on Human Systems
The development of the project is obviously a product
of the trend established by La Costa. The major impact
of this trend on human and public systems has not been
realized as yet. However, the impact can be anticipated
through the sure weight of population diffusion that will
accompany the many projects planned or developing in the
area.
The indicators that mark this trend so far are
exclusionary and economically structured. The housing
market, closely aligned to the recreation-residential
golf course oriented developments, is economically
affluent. Some afford this type of living as a resort-
related second home.
The demands on public services resulting from this
kind of development are minimal excepting the extension

and maintenance of sewer, water and street systems. In
the case of the Kratter development, El_Camino Real
relieves any major impact on the traffic circulation
system. The project will have, through its proximity,
easy access to this prime arterial highway. Other "hard-
ware services" have been extended to accommodate La Costa,
therefore diminishing this type of public service impact.
Fire protection is also in close proximity to the project
from the La Costa facility. Police protection will con^
tinue to be impacted with additional population growth for
the area along with the added investment to property.
However, since the project will be walled with at least— - _rr
fourteen security guards, the impact on police protection
will be lessened.
Fire, police, and administration of public services,
represent an abstract form of impact. The remoteness to
urban areas and proximity to fire hazard areas cause the
project to demand a high degree ,of fire protection.
Agency administration is affected where a demand on various
services (soft ware) are created. Planning, Engineering,
Building Inspection, Parks & Recreation are all impacted
when a developing area demands administrative services
for the purposes of growth and development.
The possible conflict of this development with the
operations of Palomar Airport are subject to any increase
«•
intensity in the use and functions of the airport. To
15
date, all southerly landing approaches to the airport have
been abandoned in the ongoing study and plan of the facility.
As it stands, the project will not be affected by any

The nearest commercial service facility to serve the
project is located near El Camino Real and La Costa Avenue.
For convenience purposes, this center might suffice.
Circulation Element of the City of Carlsbad General Plan
The Circulation Element of Carlsbad's General Plan
presently indicates the future alignment of Poinsettia
Lane extending easterly across El Camino Real bisecting
the property. This alignment is intended to connect 1-5
with El Camino Real and with Melrose Drive (future align-
ment) to the east. The County Circulation Plan also
indicates this alignment. However, Carlsbad designates
this road as a major street with 102 feet of right-of-way,
extending east from El Camino Real, while the County desig-
nates the road as a major 102' street from 1-5 to El Camino
Real and from El Camino to Melrose, an 84 ft. collector
street.
Several issues surround this problem. First of all,
this plan (City Circulation Element) was prepared when the
first General Plan was prepared and adopted in 1966. At
that time little development had occurred in the area
affected by this alignment. A lack of detailed site
planning for development in the area had not taken place
as well as any study of the area on the part of the City.
c o
Secondly, it followed the philosophy of extending major
_ . | ^ ^ -^
***>• streets into undeveloped areas so as to avail those areas
' W —
of access and utilities so that development could occur.
Thirdly, this philosophy took the form of a large grid
type pattern of major streets, criss-crossing nonurban
outer areas with streets which interconnected presently
developed areas of the north county.
The consequences of this concept would surely continue
and complete the patternization of urban sprawl in the
north county. Thus, it prohibits the chance to control the.
urban form and the pattern of settlement and extension of
services.
v^Quite obviously there is a conflict between the City'sn
circulation plan and the developer's plan. The alignment
of Poinsettia Lane impacts the developer's plan by cutting
across the planned golf course and his concept of a "self-
contained" residential-recreational development. On the
other hand, the development plan impacts the circulation
element by disruption of the alignment of Poinsettia Lane.
Beyond this conflict, however, there are other conse-
quences which should be taken into account that have a
potential negative impact on the environment via the
extension on Poinsettia Lane.
If an Environmental Impact Report was prepared on
the proposed alignment and.function of Poinsettia Lane,
a more detailed description of the nature of the impact
,•"*""*• might be devulged. Certainly, the major impact would bew-
in relation to the pattern of development that would result
17
from the alignment and the subsequent impact on .aatural /* £>
jtts^fy* /st^fr^C v"' '-7^ 7and. human environmental systems.
If the City intends to stand by the present circulation
plan, it is strongly recommended that such a study take _
place in order to best weigh the alternatives .
The grading would require the cutting of significant
natural slope areas. It would traverse a natural flood
plain, thus disrupting the natural land form of the area.
In terms of land form, the proposed golf course is
more compatible than the extension and alignment of Poin-
settia Lane. The concept of the golf course and residen-
tial area is to create an environment where development .
coincides with the natural land form. The golf course is,
by design, a good example of man's harmonious use of a
natural feature. The flood plain provides natural with
certain ecological requisites. The golf course, rather
than impeding these; allows them to continue. The only
negative impact to the local ecological community is in
plant life, which has already been disrupted via the
cultivation of the flood plain. The golf course would not
extentuate this, but only convert the use of the area.
Certain wildlife species, rabbits, birds-, etc. will
continue to flourish, but not in the golf course area
itself. Here they will feed, not breed.
3 18
Growth Inducement Impact
**•*- The growth inducement effects of the project will
basically be limited to adjacent properties. This area
is schematically delineated on the map on page 19. The
growth inducement factors of this project will be, for
the most part, related to land value increases due to pro-
ximity to the project. The services accommodating the
project will not significantly stimulate growth since
they have previously been extended for the sake of La
77?Costa and Hughes. ; . /
The growth occurring on properties in the area has
been induced by the improvement to El Camino Real, the
construction of major water and sewer trunk lines, the
__. fire station at La Costa, the La Costa development andC 'now the Hughes development. The Bressi lot split and this
project, was induced conceptually from these developments.
The project will consequently have an effect on peripheral
properties in the future since these properties are becoming
increasingly attractive to develop.
Adverse and Irreversible Effects of the Project
The project will undoubtedly adversely affect the natural
environment. It will disrupt the local biotic community
either through the.destruction of existing plant life or
removel of species of birds, animals, and insects. The
native shrubs which provide a habitat for such species as
A

' 20
squirrels, coyotes, rabbits, mice, pocket gophers, owls,
/«-* finches, towees, and etc., will be displaced in numbers
W
according to the amount of natural area to be altered.
Certain species will be displaced if any degree of altera-
tion takes place, since their territorial limits are near
their respective minimums now. These would include: coyotes,
white-tailed kites, and marsh hawks, for example. More
adaptable species, such as, sparrow hawks, red-tailed
hawks, and red-winged blackbirds, and etc. will not be so
disrupted. However, the terrestrial species will be
affected more than bird species through the impact of the
project. It is possible that some of the more sensitive
species will be displaced to adjacent natural habitats to
the west, north and east. However, the long term environ-
W'mental effect of this project and subsequent projects to
occur in the area will eventually deplete this section of
the region of many species of wildlife.
In addition to adverse and irreversible effects on the
natural environment, the'human environment will be impacted
in varying degrees. Basically, the secondary effects of
the project, coupled with similar growth patterns in the
vicinity, will create an increase in intensity of public and
private human activities.
There are at least five known archeological sites on
the Kratter property. These sites, from the records of
the Museum of Man in San Diego, possess varying significance.

ARCHEOLOGICAL SITES
)--approx. locations

It is possible that other sites could be discovered on the
^ property if subject to further investigation. In any case,
the sites will require excavation by a qualified archeologist.
Short and Long Term Use of Land
The Kratter property lies within the planning area
for the existing general plan for the City of Carlsbad.
According to an interim sphere of influence plan prepared
for the City of Carlsbad by LAFCO (Local Agency Formation
Commission) in September, 1972, the Kratter property lies
within Carlsbad's interim area of influence. The Carlsbad
general plan, which was adopted in 1966, recommends the
subject area to be developed as estate low density (0-2
dwelling units per acre) and low density (3-7 dwelling units
f* per acre). The applicant would, therefore, have to request
W-
an amendment to the existing general plan to accommodate
his projected density of 5.38 dwelling units per acre.
The City of Carlsbad is presently revising its general plan,
but the revision is not scheduled to be completed until
early 1974 or later. It is not known at this time if the
general plan recommendations for the Kratter property
will be altered.
The short and long term use of the land will be
affected through the development of this project. Immediately,
the project would discontinue agricultural uses of the
property. This would diminish the employment opportunities
of farm workers, the inventory of usable agricultural land,
\ntf the economic resource of agricultural land, and the aesthetic
qualities of land under cultivation.

Since the valley traversing the project site has been
designated as a segment in aii^open space corridor in the
Carlsbad General Plan, the planned golf course will assure
its preservation. Although this is implementing the General
Plan as far as open space for the property is concerned/
no determination has been made as to the type of open
space. Therefore, if public or natural open space was
intended, it will be limited to the extent of use a golf
course functions as open space.

MITIGATIVE MEASURES
In order to mitigate against the negative impacts
resulting from this project, it is suggested that atten-
tion be given to the following areas: a) archeology, b)
density distributions, c) grading control, d) open space
preservation, e) structural methods, f) school site loca-
tion, g) circulation, h) specific plan and subdivision
controls, and i) the general plan.
Archeology
It is recommended that a full site investigation be
made and a report as to significance and possible disposi-
tion of sites be presented to the City of Carlsbad.
Density Distributions
In order to minimize the on-site environ«*mrmal irtia^t ,
consideration should be made to reallocate density distribu-
tions. The westerly portion of the master plan contains
the highest on-site densities. This area also contains
the most significant vegetative cover. Without knowing
architectural design, construction methods, and the degree
to which slope and vegetation will be degraded, it is
assumed that the higher the density the more impact to
the natural environment.
The easterly area could possible accommodate the
redistribution of higher density areas. In, this case,
however, certain changes in the circulation plan must
be made. On the; other hand, if architecture requires,
25^b
through deed restriction, cantilever-type structures, the
westerly portion might not be impacted to such a degree.
Grading Control
Without knowing details of grading for the project,
controls can be imposed by the City of Carlsbad in order
to minimize this impact. These controls may relate to
cut and fill padding, graded slope ratio, compaction,
and retention of natural slopes. It is recommended that
initial conditons of development, relating to grading,
be imposed at the time the master plan is adopted. These
conditions should be aimed at: 1) the preservation of
natural slopes that exceed 25%; 2) ^preservation of highly
«!-" ' ' '"""
vegetated slopes; 3) provisions for recontouring of slopes
~~~in order to effect a finished naturaj.sjbate in• slope; (
4) planting and maintenance of treated slopes; and,
5) drainage of slopes should be effected and controlled
to enhance a natural topographical landscape and at
the same time prevent erosion. These conditions, adopted
as part of the conditions of development of a master
plan, will aide in the planning of specific plans of
development for specific areas within the master plan.
They will assist project planners or architects and
engineers in designing the different subsequent phases
of development for the project.
Open Space Preservation
f*^ . The proposed master plan indicates approximately
two-thirds of the project area to be open space of one
c o
kind or another. It is significant to wildlife, natural
C vegetation, and steep slope areas, to consider the pre-
servation of these areas for ecological and aesthetic
purposes. Conditions of master plan approval should
indicate specific areas of natural open space preservation
in addition to other forms of open space. These areas
are indicated on the map on page 13.
Structural Concepts
Every effort should be made to minimize the ridity
in engineering pads and slopes in order to accomodate
structures. Conditions relating to this need should,
however, be contained within the CC & R's or deed restric-
*«-. tions that will accompany the development.
W
School Site Location
Alternatives to the school site indicated on the
master plan of development should be sought for two
reasons. First of all, the location is cpite proximate
to the possible flight patterns of the airport. State
standards for school locations would preclude this loca-
tion for that reason. Secondly, it shouldn't be located
contiguous to El Camino Real with direct access to the
prime arterial. This location would impede the function-
ing of the school and safety of childr<
o 27
r-w
Circulation
If it is determined that a major street, such as the
extension of Poinsettia Lane, be aligned through the
property that care be taken for its specific alignment.
Any alignment which does not follow a course of the least
topographical resistance should be abandoned. If such
a major street alignment is not determined at the time
of master plan approval, then the Carrillo Ranch master
plan will have to be amended.
Specific Plans and Tentative Maps
In addition to the provisions required by ordinance
for both specific plans and tentative maps, consideration
of the above measures should be included as means to
deter any negative environmental impact caused by design
of the project.
The General Plan
The City of Carlsbad, in updating its General Plan,
should be cognizant of the relative importance of agri-
cultural land and natural open space. Agriculture should
be considered a necessary and valuable land use in the
plan. Provision of its sustenance and improvement should
accompany the current General Plan revision. ^-
ALTERNATIVE CHOICES
Alternatives to this project could be classified
as no project, partial project, or other uses.
No Proj ect
Without this project, agriculture and the existing
natural open space could be maintained in its present
state. /Considering the pressures of development and the
. ——4
fact this property has been acquired for purposes of
(development, some form of development is inevitable.
If specific planning measures on the part of the City
of Carlsbad and the County Tax Assessor were adopted,
pressures could be diminished thus, causing the "no
project" alternative to become more realistic.
Partial Project
Considering the degree and scope of planning for
the development of this property, it is conceivable to
consider the approval for the golf course and related
residential area only. If this approach is considered
it would most likely require the endorsement of the
developer as well as the lenders for the project. Since,
it is likely that the project is conceived to be econom-
ically integrated through its various units and phases,
a major adjustment in the concept and plan of the project
would have to be made.
29

W
Other Uses
The City of Carlsbad could possibly designate this
area for other uses as integral components in larger
schemes of land use planning. If this were possible,
through the update of the general plan, then no con-
sideration should be made at this time for the approval
of the project.

PALOMAR AIRPORT INTERIM
AIRPORT INFLUENCE AREA
PURPOSE
The County of San Diego is in the process of preparing a Master Plan for the
Palomar Airport facility. It is estimated that it will require approximately
nine months to one year for the Master Plan to be prepared and adopted. During
this interim period, it is desired to prevent development in the vicinity of
this facility which would be incompatible with its future configuration. It
is for this purpose that the Interim Airport Influence Area and referral pro-
cedures have been established.
INTERIM AIRPORT INFLUENCE AREA
The Interim Influence Area illustrates the land area which could be influenced
by the future configuration of the Palomar Facility. The boundaries of this
influence area were based primarily on estimates of noise zones for future
alternative runway configurations which will be under study by the Master Planning
contractor. This influence area will be revised as required as the Master Plan-
ning study progresses.
SUBMISSION PROCEDURES
It is requested that jurisdictions submit proposed land use changes within the
Interim Airport Influence Area to the Airport Land Use Commission for review
and recommendation. The following proposed land use changes should be sub-
mitted: zone reclassifications, annexations, special use permits, conditional
use permits, tentative subdivision maps, private development plans, master plans,
and specific plans. The Airport Land Use Commission will accomplish its review
and recommendation within forty-five days of the date of receipt of the referral.
Please direct referrals to the Airport Land Use Commission at the above address.

1. The County Road through the Kratter property under discussion is
SC 1340 and is known as "Carrillo Way. "
2. It was located in 1967 with a 200 scale drawing a.nd intersects El
Camino Real at approximately Engineers Station 242 + 50.
3. It is to be a standard County collector road of 64 ft. curb to curb in
an 84 foot right of way. As a collector road it can have radii down to
500 feet minimum and grades in the 6 to 8% range- -sometimes 9 to
10% if really necessary.
4. The County doesn't care where it intersects El Camino Real, but will
hold the east end at the intersection of El Fuerte and Carrillo Way as
shown on Parcel Map #1188 and will want it to-be located somewhere,
on the Kratter subdivisions.
5. The County did a 1972 traffic assignment for all the area shown on the
San Dieguito Plan. This plan has not been 'revised in 5 or 6 years.
This assignment shows 4,000 to 10,000 Average Daily Traffic in the
future on Carrillo Way. Land use revisions in the area since the 1972
traffic assignment would likely increase the importance of Carrillo Way.f
6. Therefore, we think Carrillo Way should be planned as a collector
street. The street location should be in the north part of the Kratter
subdivisions so as to avoid the Golf Course residential area where the
road is now planned by the County. Since on- street parking will not be
needed, the standard street width may be reduced depending on emerg-
ency parking requirements and separate turning lanes at intersections.

ARCHAEOLOGY
RECOMMEWATIONS FOR PREPARATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
REPORTS PKRTAINING TO CALIFORNIA ARCHAEOLOGICAL RESOURCES
TO: ALL COUNTIES, CITIES, DISTRICTS, PLANNING AGENCIES, AND FIRMS ENGAGED IN PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT
FROM: THE SOCIETY FOR CALIFORNIA ARCHAEOLOGY
Recent court decisions pertaining to application of the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970
have precipitated considerable confusion not only in planning and development circles but also among those
members of the scientific community concerned with the preparation and review of Environmental ImpactReports. Clearing up this confusion over the long run will presumably require more action by the courts,
the Governor, and the Legislature, as well as adjustments by local agencies and the natural and social-scientific disciplines. In the Interim, we as the representative organization of archaeologists in Calif- '
ornia are orovlding the following recommendations in the hope that they will be of assistance to those
charged with requiring, preparing, and reviewing EIRs.
Inclusion of Archaeology in EIRs
"Historic environmental qualities" are specifically alluded to in Section ?1001(b) of the California
Environmental Quality Act of 1970, which states that it is the policy of the State to "take aTl actionnecessary to provide the people...with...enjoyment..." of such qualities. This very broad statement may
be minimally defined as requiring that the tangible remains of California's past be preserved in the public
Interest Insofar as this 1s possible. In general, such tangible remains constitute archaeological sites -
Indian villages, cemeteries, campsites and ceremonial loci, Spanish, Mexican, Russian, American and other
settlements and structures. The State Office of Planning and Research has assured us that archaeological
resources should be included 1n any EIR. The Department of Parks and Recreation is charged with the
responsibility for review of FIRs for adequacy 1n the area of historical preservation, though the DPR staffresponsible for this review is not yet sufficient to do the kind of job that they, or we, feel is necessary.
In the past, some EIRs have included a consideration of archaeological resources while others have not. It
seems evident, however, that an adequate statement under the law should Include such consideration. It 1s
the purpose of-this memorandum to provide some suggested guidelines for archaeological elements in EIRs.
Recommended Guidelines ,
No official guidelines exist as yet for the preparation of archaeological elements under the Environ-
mental Quality Act. Guidelines have been Issued, however, for the preparation of such elements as required
by the National Environmental Policy Act of 19f>9*, which 1s very similar to the EQA. The brief suggested
guidelines presented below are based on this 27-page document.
1. Basic Requirements: Adequate evaluation of the Impact of a program or project on archaeological
resources requires both an appraisal of extant files and puhlications and field examination of the project
area. Both kinds of operations should be carried on by professionally trained archaeologists, who alone
have command of the relevant literature and the trainino to provide a scientifically valid evaluation of
the importance of given resources. Evaluations should include consideration of resources that may be
Impacted both DIRECTLY and INDIRECTLY by the project or program. In the case of a housing development,
for example, the archaeological element of the EIR should deal not only with sites that may be destroyed by
construction, but also with sites that may be damaged through vandalism or other "diffuse" land-modifying
activities resultant from changing the population structure of the project area.
2. Projects in Early Design Stages: When an EIR is required on a project in a very early planning or
design stage, a Preliminary Field Reconnaissance" is aopropriate. A PFR is a "relatively superficial arid
brief examination of representative portions of a program or project area, conducted for the purpose of
defining the general categories of cultural and related environmental resources contained in the area.
Test excavation is usually not required...and collection of artifacts is not necessary if they can be satis-factorily. ..recorded in the field.'1 A PFR "should be adequate to estimate the time and cost of an adequateIntensive survey" (NPS NEPA Guidelines 3i). .., « 9 *
On the basis of a PFR it should be possible to predict archaeologically sensitive portions of the proj-
ect area, or to state with reasonable confidence that no significant archaeological values are present.With this information project panning will usually be able to proceed 1n a way that will minimise Impact
on archaeological resources. n PFR may Indicate that an Intensive survey and/or an excavation may be neces-
sary. It may Indicate ways to design the project 1n such a way as to avoid disturhance of archaeological
resources, and it may provide means by which the project can result 1n a positive Impact on such resources
(by protecting sites in parks or open-air museums, etc.).
3. Projects in Late Design or Implementation Stages: When an EIR is required on a project in a relatively
late stage of planning (after the preparation of subdivision maps, for example), an "Intensive Field Testing
Survey" should he conducted. An IFTS Is "a comprehensive and extended physical examination of an area, for
the purpose of obtaining an accurate sample of data on all archaeological resources, situations, and associated
environmental variables. This should provide a quantitative measure of the resources affected by the action.
All periods of occupation should he identified. Test excavations will usually be necessary for th.1s survey
to Identify the character, age, and extent of archaeological resources" (NPS NEPA Guidelines 3g).
On the basis of an IFTS it should be possible to decide whether the archaeological resources of the pro-
ject area are of such great importance that the project should be halted or seriously modified, or to develop
a detailed program for mitigation of the project's adverse Impact on such resources.
"GUIDELINES FOR THE PREPARATION OF STATEMENTS OH ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ON ARCHAEOLOGICAL RESOUI
National Park Service, Arizona Archaeological Center, Tucson, June 1?, 1W.
4. Content of anjfjte EIR: An adequate EIR should contain the fol|J^^g information, 1n greater
or less detail dependin^llTwhether the report 1s based on a PFR or an I
C
c
a. An inventory of the archaeological resources to he potentially affected, directly or indirectly,
by the project;
b. A map showing the location of such resources relative to the project;
c. An evaluation of the significance of the resources 1n terms of their long-range potential for
scientific research, education, and public interest, and 1n terms of their historic, religious,
or cultural importance to living communities,
d. The predicted effect of the proposed project on the resources.
e. A planned program for mitigating any adverse effects of the project on the resources, and for
realizing any positive effects.
"...this information and any assessments based on it may be presented 1n summary form. They must,
however, be based on a detailed study of substantive data by a professionally competent archaeologist and
his report should be specifically cited in the (EIR)" (NPS NEPA Guidelines 7).
Time and Costs Involved in Archaeological Impact Studies
The time Involved in an archaeological survey, either oreliminary or intensive, depends on the kind of
terrain 1n which the survey is to be performed, the size and nature of the project, and the kind and number
of archaeologists available to perform the survey. The last factor is an esoecially important one to keep
in mind at this time. Most.professional archaeologists are employed in academic institutions or museums
and are regularly engaged in teaching, research, and curatorial activities. Trained "students and avocation-
al archaeologists, who often provide survey crews and field supervision, must work under similar constraints.
To receive best results from an archaeological survey, sufficient time should be allowed for archaeologists" .
to fit the project into their schedule of other activities. Exact time schedules must be worked out between
archaeologists and the firms or agencies responsible for snecific EIRs.
The cost of archaeological services i's easier to estimate. The California Department of Public Works,
Division of Highways, has recently established the following fee schedule for archaeologists at varying
levels of training working on EIRs:
Full Professor: $115.00/day Experienced Graduate Student: 35.00
Associate Prof: 90.00 Inexperienced Grad. Student: 25.00
Assistant Prof: 70.00 Undergraduate Student: 15.00
Instructor: 65.00
The above titles should be regarded as "rules of thumb" only. In some cases the experience and partic-
ular abilities of an archaeologist will qualify him for a fee different from that suggested by his formal
employment or educational status.
In those cases where surveys are funded on a reimbursaV basis through an educational institution,
museum, or foundation, the overhead charges of the particular institution must be added to the above
schedule. Costs of travel, per diem, equipment and supplies must also be added as necessary.
Obtaining Archaeological Services
The problem of obtaining competent archaeological consultation is a considerable one. Only a few competent,
professionally trained archaeologists in the state have full time to devote to consultation in the oreparation
of EiRs, though this numher is exoected to increase. Archaeologists employed in academic institutions, museums,and other agencies usually must fit consultation on EIRs into their schedule of regular activities. Since
there is no state accreditation program for archaeologists, some untrained persons have been known to unscrup-
ulously advertise themselves as archaeologists for profit-making purposes. The credentials of any proposed
consultant should be examined closely for both academic qualifications and field experience. The Society for
California Archaeology recognizes a group of volunteer "District Archaeologists": professionally trained
members of the organization responsible for coordination of archaeology in various regions of the state.
These individuals are listed on the following page. Agencies and firms concerned with Environmental ImpactReports are urged to contact these people and/or:

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT
MAY 2 0 1373
Date; May 25, 1973 CITY OF CARLSBAD
Planning Department
Name of Applicant: John Mamaux
Permit Applied For: Pre-annexational Zoning (P-C)
Location of Proposed Activity: North of Alga Road, East of
El Camino Real, West of Carrillo Ranch,
South of Bressi Ownership.
I. Background Information.
1. Give a brief description of the proposed activity.
The applicant proposes to develop a 717 acre parcel to include
an ultimate total of 3,859 dwelling units and a 125 acre
golf course with club house facilities. The gross acre
dwelling unit density would be 5.38 units per acre, and the
net acre density would be 9.79 units per acre. Densities
would vary throughout the residential areas of the property.
Of the total acreage, 394 acres are considered "usuable"
for residential development. The remainder, 213 acres will
be used for a school and park site (10.2 ac.), golf course
and facilities (125 ac.), club house, tennis courts, etc.
(13.3 ac.), and the remainder, including private roads
and open space (65.5 ac.).
2. Describe the activity area, including distinguishing natural
and manmade characteristics.
The property is dominated by a drainage basin which continues
southerly through La Costa and ultimately to the Batiquitos
Lagoon. The valley is the extension of two drainage courses
from the north and from the east that meet at the northern
end of the property and extends the entire length of the
property. This vallev has been .cultivated throughout the
property. It has been developed as a golf course as it
extends through La Costa. The sides of the valley form the
perifery of the property. These slopes, where not cultivated
or once cultivated, are covered with natural chapparal.
At least two resourvoirs are located on both the north and
east borders of the property at the heads of the valley.
El Camino Real, a prime artierial highway to the west, Palomar
Airport to the northwest, and La Costa to the south, are
the primary man-made features in the area.

IV. Commants or Elaborations to Any of the Questions in Section II
Note: The following elaborations are brief comments on the
possible nature of the impacts relative to questions
answered Yes in Section II.
1. The project, through the extension of services necessary to
support the activity and its proximity to undeveloped land,
will inadvertantly change present land uses in the vicinity
of the activity.
3. The activity will intensify the development in the La Costa
community area, thus affecting La Costa.
4. The possible displacement of farm workers through the
depletion of agricultural lands resulting from this project
may require a change in residence.
6. The Carrillo and Bressi ranches will be affected by this
project. These ranches could be considered significant
historical sites.
7. The activity will remove cultivatible soils from the inventory
of natural resources in the area.
9. The project will remove or impact certain habitat areas.
13. The project will eliminate agricultural lands on the property
and potentially impact the Bressi property (agriculture)
to the north of the property.
14. The activity will potentially encourage development of
undeveloped areas to the east, north, and west.
19. The activity will result in the construction of a golf course
club house facilities and single family homes in a flood plain.
20. Some slope areas of 25 per cent or more will be affected,
although no specific plan and design of development in those
areas is available at this time.
23. During construction of the project, dust will be generated.
26. Grading plans have not been completed as yet, however it is
anticipated that existing land forms will be affected.
27. "Hardware" type services will be affected by the project,
particularly, water, sewer, and external public streets.
