CHANGE OF ZONE FROM S-90 (COUNTY) TO R-1-10000-Q APPLICANT: Sudan Interior Mission CASE NO: ZC 214 STA'TEMEFr OF THE MATTTR' ^ \ The applicant requests a change of zone from S-90 (County) to R-l on property generally located southwest of the intersection of Palomar Airport Road and Laurel Tree Road. At the public hearing, the Planning Commission was concerned that an R-l zone could allow a density of development which could overburden existing public facilities . The Planning Commission, therefore, is recommending a zone change to R-1-lOOOOr-Q instead of the originally requested R-l zone. With the R-1-10000-Q designation, the Planning Commission found the project to be consistent with the General Plan and also that uses allowed in the zone would not overburden existing public facili- ties and would be compatible with surrounding land uses. No public opposition was expressed at the public hearing. Through staff review and Planning Commission hearing, all issues on this matter have been satisfactorily resolved. EXHIBITS 1.

HAGAMAN, Secretary CARLSBAD PLANNING COMMISSION PC RESO # 1676 -2- 3 STAFF REPORT DATE: August 13, 1980 TO: Planning Commission FROM: Planning Department SUBJECT: ZC-214 - SUDAN INTERIOR MISSION - Request for prezoning from existing San Diego County S-90 zone to R-l zone on property located southwest of the intersection of Palomar Airport Road and Laurel Tree Road. I. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The applicant is requesting to prezone the subject property from the County zone of S-90 to R-l in order to allow subsequent annexation and development in the city. The subject property is a 12.36 acre parcel located off Laurel Tree Road approx- imately a quarter of a mile south of Palomar Airport Road. Most of the property consists of sloping land covered with native vegetation, however, the southwesterly third of the property has been previously graded and is devoid of any native vegetation. A large single family dwelling is located on the southwesterly portion of the property. In the past, this, building was utilized as an office and heavy equipment wa,s stored on the property. The house is being used a$ a single family residence at the present time. The properties to the east, west, and south are vacant at the present time while the property to the north is being utilized for agricultural purposes and has an agricultural processing plant on it. The applicant has indicated that his organization wishes to eventually construct a retirement home on this property, consisting of cluster housing. Construction of thi.s facility would require subsequent approval of a Planned Unit Development by the Planning Commission. II. ANALYSIS Planning Issues 1. Is the proposed R-l zone consistent with the RLM General Plan designation? 2. Is the proposed R-l zone consistent with existing surrounding zoning and land use? 3.. Is the proposed R-l zone premature at this time and would another zone be more appropriate? Discussion The RLM (Residential Low-Medium Density, 0-4 du/ac) designation of the General Plan is intended to allow the type of residential development that would occur in the requested R-l zone. Therefore, R-l zoning would be consistent with the General Plan designation for this property. Staff is concerned, however, as to whether the R-l zone would be consistent with the existing surrounding zoning and land use in the area and whether the requested R-l zone is premature at this time. The subject property is rather isolated from the nearest residentially developed property and approximately a mile from the nearest existing R-l zone. The nearest existing residential development is located at Alta Mira, approximately a half mile to the west of the subject property. The subject property is contiguous to the City of Carlsbad along its northern boundary only. However, this property has a zoning of E-A (Exclusively Agricultural) which has a minimum lot size of 10 acres. It is the staff's feeling that a zoning of R-l would not be appropriate for this parcel at the present time. Approval of the requested zoning would result in an isolated R-l zoning district completely surrounded on all four sides by zoning permitting a much lower density of development than would be permitted in the R-l zone and requiring a much lower level of public services. Planning staff feels that a zoning of L-C (Limited Control) would be the appropriate zoning for this property at t^iis time. The L-C (Limited Control) zone is an interim type of zoning which would allow the property to annex into the city, but would not allow it to be used for other than agricultural type purposes. At a future date, when the surrounding area is also ready to develop at a more intense level and a higher level of public services are available, the applicant would be able to apply for a zone change from L-C to R-l. It should be pointed out that although the applicant has indicated an intention to develop the property with a specific use, the Planning Commission's consideration should focus on the proper zoning for the property given the major planning issues listed above. III. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Planning Commission ADOPT Resolution No. 1676, recommending to the City Council APPROVAL of ZC- 214 for the L-C zone rather than the requested R-l zone based on the findings contained therein. -2- Attachments Background Data Sheet Disclosure Form Location Map PC Resolution No. 1676 MHrar 7/31/80 — 3— BACKGROUND DATA SHEET CASE NO: ZC-2J4. ^ APPLICANT: SUDAN INTERIOR MISSION REQUEST END LOCATION: ZONE CHANGE FROM S~90 (COUNTY) TO CITY OF CARLSBAD R-l LOCATED SOUTH OF PALOMAR AIRPORT ROAD, EAST OF INTERSTATE 5.
