TITLE: A GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT AND ZONE CHANGE; WEST SIDE OF EL CAMINO REAL, 7500 FEET NORTH OF PALOMAR AIRPORT ROAD - GPA-67(A)/ZC-270 - IVAR CITY ATTY O g O OO RECOMMENDED ACTION: Both the Planning Commission and staff recommend that this application be APPROVED and that the City Council direct the City Attorney's Office to prepare document APPROVING GPA-67(A), and ZC-270. ITEM EXPLANATION This item consists of two requests: 1) A General Plan Amendment from RLM (Residential Low- Medium, 0-4 du/ac) to P-I (Planned Industrial); and 2) A preannexational zone change from E-1-A (County) to P-M (Planned Industrial) and R-1-10,000. The property is 44.6 acres in size and divided topographically by a steep slope. The upper portion of the site is proposed as industrial and the lower portion as single family residential. The Planning Commission found that both the General Plan Amendment and Zone Change made sense from a land use point of view. The upper portion of the site, proposed as industrial, physically relates to the Carlsbad Research Center (Roll Property) and would derive its access from there. The lower portion of the site ties into residentially designated properties to the north. Through staff review and Planning Commission hearing, all issues on this matter have been satisfactorily resolved. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The Land Use Planning Manager has determined that this project will not cause any significant environmental impacts and, therefore, has issued a Negative Declaration, dated March 8, 1983, which was approved by the Planning Commission on April 13, 1983. A copy of the environmental documents is on file in the Land Use Planning Office. FISCAL IMPACT No direct fiscal impacts will be created by approval of the General Plan Amendment or Zone Change. Upon development, the applicant will be required to provide all needed public improvements to the property and, in addition, pay a public facilities fee to offset the costs of providing City services.

B) That based on the evidence presented at the public hearing, the Commission recommends approval of ZC-270, based on the following findings and subject to the following conditions: o Findings : 1 ) The proposed zone change to P-M is consistent with the General Plan designation of P-I since this designation is applied to areas that are suitable for industrial development. The proposed zone change to R-1-10,000 is consistent with a General Plan designation of RLM since a designation like this is applied to an area that is suitable for single-family residen- tial development.5 2) The P-M zone is compatible with surrounding properties because " the properties to the south and west of subject property have been designated for industrial development, and R-1-10,000 ' zones are compatible with surrounding properties because the surrounding properties to the north have been designated for residential development at similar densities. 3) The applicant has agreed and is required by the inclusion of an appropriate condition to pay a public facilities fee. Perfor- mance of that contract and payment of the fee will enable this body to find that public facilities will be available concur- •'••'• rent with need as required by the General Plan. 12 4) ip^ project will not cause any significant environmental impacts and a Negative Declaration has been issued by the Land Use Planning Manager on March 8, 1983, and approved by the Planning Commission on April 13, 1983 Conditions :15 1) Approval is granted for ZC-270 as shown on Exhibit "A", dated March 31, 1983,. incorporated by -reference and on file in the Land Use Planning Office.

(D STAFF REPORT DATE: April 13, 1983 TO: Planning Commission FROM: Land Use Planning Office SUBJECT: GPA-67(A)/ZC-270 - IVAR - A request to amend the General Plan land use designation from RLM (residential low-medium, 0-4 du/ac) to P-I (planned industrial), and a preannexational zone change from E-1-A (county) to R-1-10,000 (one-family residential, 10,000 square-foot minimmum lot size), and P-M (planned industrial). I. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Planning Commission APPROVE the Negative Declaration issued by the Land Use Planning Manager and ADOPT Resolutions Nos. 2110 and 2109, recommending APPROVAL of GPA-67(A) and ZC-270. II.PROJECT DESCRIPTION The applicant is requesting that the Land Use Element of the General Plan be changed from RLM (0-4 du/ac) to P-I (planned industrial) and that the zoning be changed from County E-1-A to P-M and R-1-10,000 on property located southwest of El Camino Real approximately 7,500 feet north from the intersection of El Camino Real and Palomar Airport Road. The property is bounded on the southern and western sides by the Koll Research Center. Topographically, the site is dominated by a steep slope which runs east to west and divides the property in half. The upper section is relatively level and the lower section slopes slightly toward El Camino Real. The applicant is requesting a zone change of R-1-10,000 for the lower section so as to keep it consistent with future residential development in the area. The applicant is, also, requesting a zone change to P-M for the upper section to be consistent with the adjacent industrial designated parcels of the Koll property. III. ANALYSIS Planning Issues - General Plan Amendment 1. 2. Is the proposed General Plan designation of planned industrial appropriate for this site? Is the proposed designation compatible with existing and future land uses in the area? Discussion The applicant has requested the P-M designation for the upper portion of the site since it is on the same elevation as the adjoining Roll Research property and is best suited for industrial uses. Staff concurs with this proposal since this area is bounded on two sides by industrial uses and the proposed P-I designation would be consistent with existing and future uses in the area. Staff also believes that access would be better served from the Koll property than from El Camino Real. With the addition of this land to industrial use, a natural boundary would be created by having the slope divide residential and industrial uses. This would be in line with the General Plan guidelines which allows that either property lines, streets or topography should be used to designate land use boundaries. Overall, staff feels it can make the required findings for a General Plan Amendment, and therefore, recommends approval of GPA-67(A). Planning Issues - ZC-270 1. Are the proposed zones (R-1-10,000 and P-M) both consistent with the General Plan designations of RLM and P-I. 2. Are the uses allowed in the R-1-10,000 and P-M zones consistent with the surrounding zoning and land uses? Discussion The requested zone changes would be consistent with the General Plan designations for these properties as proposed. Planned industrial, P-M, is the implementing zone for the P-I designa- tion. Also, R-1-10,000 is an implementing zone for an area with a General Plan Amendment of RLM. Staff feels the proposed zone changes and the uses allowed within these zones will be consistent with the surrounding zoning and land uses. The properties to the south and west of the property proposed for a zoning of P-M have been designated for industrial development. The property that is being rezoned to R-1-10,000 is adjacent to other property that is designated for a similar density of developement. Overall, staff can make the required findings and is, therefore, recommending approval of ZC-270. IV. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The Land Use Planning Manager has determined that this project will not have a significant impact on the environment and, therefore, issued a Negative Declaration on March 8, 1983. -2- /3 ATTACHMENTS 1.
