I. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Planning Commission APPROVE the Negative Declaration issued by the Land Use Planning Manager and ADOPT Resolution Nos. 2371, 2372 and 2373, recommending APPROVAL ofA/LU 84-13, X-320 and SP-196, to the City Council based on the findings and subject to the conditions contained therein. 11. PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND The applicant is requesting approval of three actions on 3.36 acres, located as described above, The discretionary actions requested are: General Plan Amendment from U, Public Utilities,to a combination district comprised of G/O, Governmental Facilities/Professional; - 1) 2) Preannexational Zone Change to 0, Office; and 3) A Specific Plan. The subject property is roughly triangular in shape and isolated by roadways on all three sides as shown on the locatio map. Olivenhain Road borders the site to the south, and sections of Rancho Santa Fe Road adjoin the property to the eas and west. The site is currently occupied by the Olivenhain Municipal Water District headquarters. The requested actions are proposed to accommodate annexation of the subject property to Carlsbad, The site adjoins the City o Carlsbad boundaries to the north, east and west. The Woolley Annexation, to be considered by the City Council in the next month, includes 375 acres of property immediately adjacent to the south. As originally proposed, the annexation would have left the water district as a small county island. LAFCO, in recently approving the Woolley annexation, added a condition requiring the prezoning of the water district property prior t formal annexation. I a @ $, " The intent of the actions before the Planning Commission is to accommodate existing water district operations and to provide for possible future uses or redevelopment of the site. end, staff has prepared a specific plan for the property. specific plan is required, pursuant to the Land Use Element of the General Plan, for any property upon which a combination district of land use designations is placed. 111. ANALYSIS General Plan Amendment Planning Issues TO this A 1) Are the proposed land use designations the most 2) Would uses permitted by the proposed land use appropriate for the site? designations be compatible with existing and future permitted land uses? Discussion The project site is currently designated U, Public Utilities, by the Land Use Element of the General Plan. The water district, however, is not a public utility but a qovernmental agency. The designation G, Governmental Facilities, would most accurately reflect the existing operations. Staff is proposing a combination district of G/O, Governmental Facilities and Professional uses as a means to best accommodate existing uses as well as future use of the site. The water district operations are predominately office in nature. Designating the site as a combination district would enable a non-governmental office uses to occupy the site, should the water district relocate. The combination district also requires approval of a specific plan whereby future users could be restricted and development standards specified for new development . The site is bordered on all sides by property developed as or designated for Residential Low-Medium density development. due to the property's size, shape and proximity to major roadways, (Olivenhain Road and Rancho Santa Fe are prime arterials), staff does not believe the property is suitable for residential development. Of possible non-residential uses, professional office use, as restricted by the specific plan, would have the least potential impacts on nearby residences. Further, the project site's isolation by prime arterials would serve as a buffer between proposed and adjoining uses. Staff believes that the proposed combination district most accurately reflects existing land uses while providing for future use of the site. The required specific plan process provides a mechanism to ensure future land uses are compatible and that new development reflects high quality standards. -2- e a , I), )' zone Change Planning Issue 1) Is the proposed zone consistent with the General Plan? Discussion Staff is proposing the 0, Office zone for the subject property. The Office zone is consistent with both the Governmental Facilities and Professional land use designations. The proposed specific plan would further modify zoning to properly implement both land use classifications, As exhibited by current operations, the site is adequate in size and shape to accommodate uses permitted in the zone. Land uses, permitted by the Office zone, that may have the potential to impact neighboring properties or the circulation system (eg., high traffic generators) would not be permitted under the specific plan, Specific Plan Discussion As noted previously, the specific plan is intended to accommodate the existing water district operations as well as future users of those same facilities or redevelopment of the site. The specific plan approves the existing development and provides for construction of a future storage building. The specific plan also includes a list of permitted uses, similar to those contained in the Office zone, except that high traffic generators have been eliminated. A future user, as permitted by the specific plan, could occupy the site as existing with no discretionary action required. Any alteration to the approved site plan, however, would require an amendment to the specific plan, The project site is in an area that may undergo considerable changes in the next twenty years. As well as new development, realignment of Rancho Santa Fe Road and possible construction 0 Highway 680 may impact permitted uses, site configuration or render the uses or standards of the specific plan inappropriate It is for these reasons that staff has built a review process into the specific plan, The process calls for Commission revie every five years or upon change to the area circulation. In this manner, staff hopes to provide a mechanism to ensure that uses are appropriate, all impacts are mitigated and that the conditions of the specific plan are current and pertinent to tl needs and concerns of the City. -3- m m I. ' I? :* Overall, staff believes that the proposed combination district would incorporate the most appropriate land use designation for the site, that the Office zone would properly and consistently implement those land uses and that the Specific Plan adequately accommodates existing operations while providing for future compatible uses and quality development.
