SUBJECT:
VILLAGE COMMERCIAL OFFICE COMPLEX - SEWER ALLOCATIONS
Statement of the Matter
Mr. David Ruhnau, architect for the subject office complex, is re-
questing a sewer allocation of six E.D.U.'s. The location for the
proposed 10,800 sq.ft. development is 2922 Roosevelt Street.
The First Phase Sewer Allocation System provides for a contingency
reserve. There are 39.5 E.D.U.'s left in the contingency reserve.
These E.D.U.'s are reserved for such things as failed septics, pub-
lic projects and redevelopment projects. Allocations from the con-
tingency reserve requires council approval.
The City Engineer has determined that the subject project would
require six E.D.U.'s. If the council wishes, capacity from the
contingency reserve could be used for this project. The redevelop-
ment coordinator supports the project.

Subject: Sewer Allocations for Proposed Village Commercial/Office
Complex for David Thompson in the City of Carlsbad.
Dear Sir:
I am representing my client, David Thompson, who is a long time
property owner in the City of Carlsbad. He wishes to develop a piece
of property fronting on Roosevelt Street and adjacent Grand Avenue in
the redevelopment area as described in the attached drawing.
The estimated value of the land is approximately $200,000 and we plan
a building construction cost of $380,000. We are proposing a first
class facility containing some 5440 s.f. of commercial on the first
floor and some 5440 s.f. of office on the second floor. We plan to
take physical as well as visual amenities into consideration in the
development of this project, realizing its potential for enhancing the
City of Carlsbad, and in particular the redevelopment area.
As is shown, we plan to provide set-backs for the building fronting on
Roosevelt to provide additional pedestrian amenities and circulation
space. As can be seen by the attached drawing we have provided the
required parking spaces for this development and also plan to landscape
the site extensively.
We appreciate your consideration and hopefully favorable action for
this project.
Very truly yours,
David Runnau, AIA, for,

MEMORANDUM
DATE: August 24, 1978
TO: James C. Hagaman, Planning Director
FROM: Jack Henthorn, Redevelopment Coordinator1
SUBJECT: DAVID THOMPSON, VILLAGE OFFICE COMMERCIAL PROJECT
I have reviewed the subject development proposal from the
standpoint of the redevelopment planning process and found
it to be compatible with the provisions contained in the
Planning Commission's recently adopted preliminary plan.
The applicant has been working with staff over the past
four months in an effort to reach a mutually satisfactory
site plan. The result of that effort is the plan which
serves as the basis of this memo. From the land use/economic
standpoint, the admixture of commercial and office use creates
a desirable situation in that the retail uses add to the
market attraction of the area, while the commercial service
uses generate potential clientel for the existing retail uses.
The site of the project is on one of the largest vacant
pieces of property within the village area commercial core.
There has been significant new development activity occur-
ring peripheral to the subject site and the Thompson pro-
ject would add to an upgrading of the overall character
of the area.
It is concluded from my review that the project would be
a definite asset to the City's revitalization efforts in
the village area and that this project should be considered
for an allocation of 6 E.D.U.'s on the basis of its con-
tribution of the City's overall revitalization efforts.
