CITY OF CARLSBAD
PLANNING DEPARTMENT
STAFF REPORT FOR
JANUARY 3, 1974
TO: PLANNING COMMISSION
REPORT ON: REQUEST FOR CONFIRMATION OF CONFORMANCE, OF PROPOSED
AIRPORT EXPANSION TO THIS CITY'S GENERAL PLAN
*• REQUEST: The County of San Diego has requested that the City
of Carlsbad review the proposed expansion of the Palomar Air-
port' as to its conformance to the City's General Plan. The
County is proposing to purchase an approximate 232-acre par-
cel at the northeast corner of the intersection of Palomar
Airport Road and El Camino Real. The proposed use of the
property as indicated in the attached letter is: "...will
be for clear zone, instrument landing system lights and a
site for the middle marker beacon for Runway 9/24."- It is
indicated that the acquisition of this land is to provide for
F.A.A. required clear zone and future instrumentation for. the
existing airport facility.
11 • STAFF RECOMMENDATION: That it be moved that the Planning Com-
mission find that the expansion for the purpose stated is in '
conformance with the City's General Plan. Any physical expan-
sion of the airport beyond that currently in existence which
would result in an increase of the airport's operational level
or any expansion which would result in any land use other than
the airport would requ-ire a more precise evaluation of the pro-
ject by the City.

MEMORANDUM
TO: CITY MANAGER
FRO;': PLAMKIMG DIRECTOR
SUBJECT: Conformity of Proposed County- of San Diego .
Land Purchase for Palomar Airport Expansion
The County of San Diego Department of General Services, by letter
dated December 17, 1973 (attached)s is requesting the City's con-
currence with the proposed 232 acre purchase. The letter indicates
the acquisition is being made for the purpose of airport expansion.
Specifically stated, the letter refers to "The proposed use of this
land will be for clear zone, instrument landing system lights, and
a site for the middle marker beacon for Runway 9/24".
The stated intention of the letter is that of providing land for
FAA required clear zones, future instrumentation system for the
existing airport facility. The Staff is of the.opinion that ex-
pansion for the purposes as stated by the letter is in conformance
with the City.'s General Plan. However, any physical expansion of
the airport facility which would provide for an increased operational
level, or would add new runways would not necessarily be consistent
with applicable General Plans. If such an expansion would take place}
the City would require that application be made for the appropriate
permits. Concurrently, any other future County use of the subject
•property, e.g., sanitary land fill, would also necessitate approval
by the City. Therefore, it is recommended that the City Council
adopt a resolution stating conformity to applicable General Plans for
the lands destined to be used for a clear zone for the existing run-
way, instrument landing system and middle marker beacon. Also, the
resolution should state, that any expansion of the airport beyond that
currently in existence, which would increase the airport's operational
level or which' would envision any other land use other than the airport,
would necessitate the receipt of appropriate City, permits and approvals.

sented it to our Environmental Review Board which approved it on

Palomar Airport, Log "362, 232 acres
This project, a request for the acquisition of 232 acres adjacent to the

the property to remain in its natural state except for ninor
construction of instrument landing lights and a middle marker
beacon.
2. There will be no significant growth inducing ir.pact as a result
of this project. -
Not e: This negative declaration applies only to the use of this property
as a clear zone. If any other use of this proposed site is employed,
it will be subject to the environmental review process.
Respectfully submitted,
