The intent of this supplemental staff report is to help the C Council in their understanding of the Batiquitos Bluff projec and its relationship to the lagoon, the LCP, and the Batiquit Lagoon Management Plan. Discussion is as follows: A) Project Relationship to Lagoon and Laqoon Bluffs On July 20, 1982, the City Council approved preannexatic zoning (X-244) on the site to RDM-Q and 0-S zones. Per this action, the bluff-top provides the boundary betweer two zones, with the bluffs and the lagoon area designate open space (0-S) . The upland area is zoned RDM-Q. Subsequent to this action, a parcel map (MS-595) was approved on the property, which legally separated the 01 space area (lagoon and lagoon bluffs) from tine remainin5 (upland) portion of the site. As such, the lagoon, and lagoon bluffs adjacent to the project are zoned open sp: and are separated legally (by lot line) from the area proposed for development. No development or alteration whatsoever is proposed on the bluffs or in the lagoon. B) Environmental Review On July 6, 1982, the City Council certified an environmc impact report for the 130-acre "Seabluff" property. Th: area included the subject site. This certified environinental impact report addressed all environmental issues associated with "worst case" development of the property, in accordance with the San Dieguito Local Coal Proyrarn. The docum.ent identified significant impacts a1 recommended mitigation measures. As mentioned on the ac bill face, staff is recommending the inclusion of a new condition that "all mitigation measures of the environmc impact report shall be complied with in their entirety. to assure that no a.dverse impacts result from the projec Staff has reviewed the project in light of identified mitigation measures and finds that it complies. The addition of this condition will insure that no minor, o technical violations of these measures are overlooked. 0 0 1 1 C) Compliance with Local Coastal Plan (LCP) The subject property was located within the San Dieguito area. When this LCP was recently amended, the property deleted from the LCP since it had annexed to Carlsbad. project however, was designed, in terins of complying wit the San Dieguito LCP. The project proposes development within the allowable density range only on the upland portion of the property. Open space areas identified in undisturbed open space. A sediment catch-basin is provi to control erosion. Overall, staff ainalysis of the proj concludes that it does comply with the requirements of t San Dieguito LCP. D) Compliance with the Batiquitos Lagoon Management Pla Although the Batiquitos Lagoon Managenent Plan has not 1 been adopted by the Council, staff has reviewed the proj in light of the drafted plan, and concludes that while t project generally complies with the plan, it does exceed of the development standards. Section 202.040 states th ''no portion of any structure within 100 feet of a bluff shall exceed one story". Several (approximately 50%) of single-family homes within this 100-foot area are two st In addition, a 3-story rulti-family structure is situate within this area near the 1-5 right-of-way. Section 202.071 requires that cut or fill grading "shall exceed 10 feet from the natural grade". The easternmost portion of the project (adjacent to 1-5) exceeds this standard. In this area earthwork will include cutting t existing grade up to 15 feet. Section 204.061 allows density on the subject site up tc du/ac. The proposed project density is exactly 15 du/ac This section goes further to say, however, that the maxi density on the entire 100-acre "Seabluf f 'I site (includir this site and the agriculture preserve) shall not exceed du/ac. 'While the proposed project technically meets the density requirements, ultimate development of the agriculture preserve would be restricted to much lower density (around 5 du/ac). This aspect could pose some future compatibility and design problems. IJCP are accoinmodated. The lagoon and bluffs are left in PJK/ar nyrh JUNE.'

I. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Planning Cornfission APPROVE the Negative Declaration issued by the Land Use Planning Manaqe ADOPT Resolution No. 2352 recommending APPROVAL of CT 84-25, toe City Council base2 on the findinF5 and subject to thl conditions contained therein. 11. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The proposed project involves the development of a 40-acre into a planned residential development. The site is bounde the future extension of Avenida Encinas (providing the Poin Lane - Carlsbad Boulevard link) on the north, 1-5 on the ea Batiquitos Lagoon on the south, and a vacant 60-acre parcel the same ownership to the north and west. The northern and western vacant parcel was limited to agric uses by the San Dieguito Local Coastal Plan. The entire pi however, has recently been deleted from this plan and, as : new local coastal plan for the property must be adopted by Coastal Commission prior to any new development. The site encompasses a gently-sloping (2-9 degrees of slop marine terrace, presently used for agriculture production. are no existing improved roads which access the site. An unimproved dirt road extends from Avenida Encinas south of Lakeshore Gardens Mobile Home Park, Commission requirement, a desiltation basin has recently b constructed above the lagoon bluff, in the southwest corne site. No development would occur on the lagoon bluff or c actual portion of the lagoon. The Land Use Element of the General Plan designates the si (10-20 du/ac). Surrounding land uses vary. Batiquitos L; classified open space. The agricultural cropland area (Cc Commission requirement) is designated RMH (City Designatic south of Avenida Encinas (adjacent to the subject site) ar 10 du/ac) between Avenida Encinas and the Lakeshore Gardei Home Park. The 1-5 Freeway is to the east. Community shc and tourist facilities are planned adjacent to the Poinsei Lane/I-5 interchange. In compliance with a 0 0 The project design incorporates four distinct product types f 01 lows : a) 70 attached and detached zero lot-line, single family residences on the southern portion of the site adjacent lagoon bluffs. b) 90 duplex condominiums in three building clusters on the western portion of the site. c) 176 four-plex condominium townhouses in 16- unit clusters throughout the central portion of the site ti) 264 multi-family condominiums in large 3-story structure subterranean parking garages. This design results in a 600-unit development with an overa? du/ac range for the site. The entire site is zoned RD--M-Q. III. ANALY S I S Planning Issues 1 ) Does the project address the environmental sensitivitie! density of 15.0 du/ac, at the mid-point olf the allowable 10- the site? 2) Is the project compatible with surrounding present and land uses? 3) Does the project meet the development standards and des criteria of the planned development ordinance? Discussion AS shown on Exhibits ''An, 'Qn, and llC", the proposed devel0 will be located on the blufftop to the south of proposed Av Encinas. All structures are designed to be set back a mini feet from the top of the lagoon bluff. Such setback shoulc provide sufficient buffer between the development and the t edge. In addition, structures adjacent to this buffer varl height (one and two-story mix) and width (two attached unit maximum) to provide visual break-up and variety and lessen impact along the lagoon viewshed. Potential lagoon sedimer impacts should be reduced significantly by the recent const of a desiltation basin which will reduce sediment load befc entering the lagoon. -2- 0 0 f The project is proposed at an overall density of 15.0 du/ac \ is at the mid-point of the 10-20 du/ac range for this area. Batiquitos Pointe condominium project has previously been approved westerly of the site (between Carlsbad Boulevard an( railroad tracks) at 19 du/ac. Intervening property is slatec the City) for multi-family development at 10-20 du/ac. Exisl Lakeshore Gardens Mobile Home Park is developed at 7 du/ac w intervening property (between the park and the subject site) specified for 4-10 du/ac development. The Batiquitos Bluff project wuld be considered compatible with such surrounding I As proposed, the project meets the development standards and design criteria of the Planned Development Ordinance. Both common and private recreation facilities are provided within product-type subarea. Four centralized recreation areas wit1 pools and spas are well integrated with other elements of thi project. These areas are conveniently accessed through a meandering pedestrian circulation system which avoids confli with drives and parking areas. All units of the project pos usable patios or balconies.
