SUITE 202 CARLSBAD, CA 92008 P.O. BOX 1129 PHONE AREACODE714 729-4987 June 29, 1982 Carlsbad City Council City of Carlsbad Carlsbad, California 92008 RE: PLANNED DEVELOPMENT ORDINANCE AGENDA ITEM NO. 13 Dear Council Members: Tonight you will be considering adopting the Planned Develop- ment Ordinance as presented to you by the staff and Planning Commission. At your last public hearing, on June I, 1982, the Council directed the staff to look at a number of changes. These changes involved a proposed variance procedure, mandatory requirements for recreational vehicle parking and modified front setback requirements. I would like you to reconsider your thinking on the recreational vehicle parking and the setback requirements. First the RV parking. I think the Committee's feelings were really not expressed in detail at the previous public hearing. I think the Committee's feelings came across as trying to discourage or eliminate RV park- ing. The Committee felt there was a need for RV parking, but did not feel it needed to be a mandatory requirement. They were very specific, though, that RVs could not be parked in public streets or in areas easily visible from the development. I would like to request that you reconsider deleting the requirement for RV parking and make it an optional item. I would further like to request that RV parking be specifically not allowed in any front or side yard building setbacks. I think this area needs to be kept clear for emergency and safety provisions. The second item I would like your reconsideration on would he modifications to frontyard setbacks. I would agree with the staff's position in tonights staff report. Thank you for your consideration on these items. Sincerely, RCL : ps Robert C. Ladwig RONALD E. NULL ATTORNEY AT LAW 2124 EL CAmmo REAL STE. 100 LAW OFFICES OCEANSIDE, CA 92054 HIQQS.
