Recmest for an amendment I. to a previously approved 60 unit Tentative Tract Map and Condominium Permit on a 5.2 acre site located on the"northeast corner of El Camino Real and Dove Lane.

II.PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND The applicant is requesting an amendment to a previously approved 60 unit condominium as described above. This project was approved by the Planning Commission and City Council in 1980. The applicant is now proposing to divide the project into two phases for financial purposes. There will be no changes in the number of units or the approved site design. The project is described in detail in the attached July 9, 1980 Staff Report. Ill ANALYSIS Planning Issue 1) Is the requested phasing essentially in conformance with the previously approved tentative tract map and condominium permit? Discussion When a developer is requesting to phase a project, Staff's main concern is that the phasing sequence be such that the early phases can stand on their own in terms of parking, amenities, etc. Each phase must be examined as a project, as though later phases may never get built. As is shown on Exhibit. "A", the entire common recreation area will be constructed in Phase I. Also the entire entrance, access drive, and sufficient parking (including visitor) will be included in this phase. If, for some reason, Phase II were to never be built, Phase I could meet the development standards and design criteria of the planned development ordinance. As a result, Staff sees no problem with allowing this project to be constructed in the phasing sequence they have requested. All of the previous conditions of approval are applicable to this project and have been incorporated into the Planning Commission resolution for this project. Staff is recommending the addition of a Condition (No. 1) to allow for the requested phasing. IV.

DSL SERVICE COMPANY STAFF REPORT ©+•4" DATE: July 9, 1980 TO: Planning Commission FROM: Michael Howes , Planning Department SUBJECT: CT 77-8 (A) /CP-45/SDP 80-8 - MOLA - Request for 60 unit Tentative Tract Map and Condominium Project ®n property located on the northeast corner of El Camino Real and Dove Lane. I. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The applicant is proposing a 60 unit condominium develop- ment on the east side of El Camino Real, north of "Westbluff Plaza". The units are generally proposed in four-unit clusters, with each building taking access off of a private driveway. Each driveway, in turn, connects with an existing public street, Sandpiper Place. This street ends in a cul-de-sac at the northern boundary of the site as shown on Exhibit "A". The proposed condominium project is located in an area that is designated as RMH by the Land Use Element of the Carlsbad General Plan. This designation allows a density of 10-20 dwelling units per acre; the proposed project will have a density of 11.5 units per acre. The subject property was previously subdivided into a total of 16 lots, and building pads have been graded, in conjunction with the approval of CT 77-8. As a result, the lots are relatively level and devoid of any significant flora or fauna. The pads step up towards the northern end of the property, with an elevation differential of approximately 20 feet between the northern and southern boundaries of the site. Approx- imately 1600 cubic yards of additional grading is proposed to prepare the site for development. II. ANALYSIS Planning Issues 1. Does the proposed condominium project conform with the development standards of the condominium ordinance? 2. Does the proposed condominium project conform with the design criteria of the condominium ordinance? Development Standards The applicant proposes to provide one covered parking space and one open parking space per unit. Guest parking will be available along Sandpiper Place where there is sufficient space to accommodate 28 cars, meeting the visitor parking requirements. In regards to building setbacks, all of the.buildings will be setback at least 30" from El Camino Real. This 30' area will be heavily landscaped to shield the condominiums from El Camino Real. The two southernmost buildings will be setback at least 20 feet from Dove Lane. This area will also be heavily landscaped to shield these buildings from the traffic on Dove Lane. All except one of the proposed condominium buildings will be setback 30" - 40' from Sandpiper Place, a private street serving this development. The one exception is the eight unit building located at the southwestern corner of the project. This building is setback 10 feet from Sandpiper Place. Due to the location of this building with streets on all three sides the applicant and the staff felt a 10 foot setback from Sandpiper Place was acceptable. This complies with the minimum 10f setback from a private street required by the condominium ordinance. All of the buildings will be setback at least 10 feet from the parking areas. A tennis court will be constructed at the northern edge of the site and barbecue facilities will be located adjacent to each of the buildings, meeting all open/ recreational space requirements. In terms of storage, a small amount of storage will be available- in the front section of the garages. A condition has been added to the approval of this project requiring that additional storage be provided so that each unit has at least 480 cubic feet of storage area accessible to the outside. Design Criteria This project meets all of the design criteria of the condominium ordinance. The street pattern should provide adequate circulation, yet will not be the dominant feature of this development. The open space and recreational areas are readily accessible to each of the buildings. This project will be located between an existing shopping center and an existing apartment complex, both of which have been constructed by the applicant. The architecture of this project will be similar to that of the existing apartments and should fit in well v/ith the surrounding development. -2- G The applicant has indicated to the staff that eventually he would like to integrate this project with his existing apartments if they are converted to condominiums. The applicant has indicated via dashed lines on Exhibit A the location of future parking areas along the northern edge of this project. These parking spaces would be required if the existing apartments were converted to condominiums. Approval of this tentative map and condominium permit in no way indicates approval of the proposed future driveway and parking improvements along the northerly portion of the property nor does it justify a future conversion of the existing apartments. These parking spaces and driveway improvements will have to be approved as part of the application for the future conversion of the existing apartments. III. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Planning Commission adopt Resolution No. 1663^ recommending APPROVAL to the City Council of CT 77-8(A)/CP-45, and Resolution No. 1664, APPROVING SDP 80-8, based on the findings and subject to the conditions contained therein.

Since that time, the property has changed ownership and the new owner is requesting minor revisions to the approved plan. Exhibit "X" depicts the proposed revisions which include: 1. An increase of 150 square feet of floor area for the smallest unit; 2. Replacement of the proposed tennis court with a swimming pool and spa; 3. Re-alignment of the most northeasterly building complex and parking area to take advantage of the view; and 4. Relocation of 1 unit from the most southwesterly com- plex to the most northeasterly complex. Staff has reviewed the proposed request and feels the re- visions are minor in nature and will improve the project. If the Planning Commission concurs, staff will prepare a memo for the file and make the necessary changes. If the Plann- ing Commission feels, however, that the changes constitute a major revision and would like the opportunity of additional review, then this item must -be brought back as an amendment to the tentative tract map and condominium permit at an advertised public hearing. RECOMMENDATION • It is recommended that the Planning Commission find the proposed revisions minor in nature and direct staff to make the necessary corrections to the file. ATTACHMENTS 1.
