The project as proposed has a P-C (Planned Community) zone
classification. However, as discussed in the La Costa Master Plan, the subject Santa Fe Knolls property is part of approximately 3200 acres of property developed under the exis Master Plan MP-149. MP-149 designated the subject property tl developed to R-1-7500 zoninq standards.
This proposed project will consist of one phase, comprising a
total of 73 single family buildable lots. The 73 buildable 1
created by this subdivision will range from 7500 sq. ft. to
24,000 sq. ft. in size. All lots will take access from publi streets. This portion of the Santa Fe Knolls project will be
du/ac. This density is consistent with that formerly approve
CT 75-9(B) and is in conformance with the General Plan
Knolls, CT 75-9(B) recorded two final maps over 138 of the
located on a 23.6 acre site and will have a density of 3,09
e 0
designation for this site of RLM, Residential Low Medium, 0-4
du/ac. The projects density (3.09 du/ac) is slightly above the mean density of three du/ac established for the RLM General P1z
designation by City Council Policy 7872. However, this project is part of the original Santa Fe Knolls (CT 75-9(B)) project
which has an overall density of 3.0 du/ac, thereby complying wj
City Council's mean density policy.
The subject property is characterized by hilly topography and 2
covered with native grasses. It is currently in its natural
state except for grading done in conjunction with the construction of the Olivenhain Municipal Water District water line with the proposed right-of-way of Mision Estancia, locatel along the western edge of the property. A riparian woodland
exists along the northernmost property boundary. This riparia area is identified in the La Costa Master Plan EIR (307) as a locally important resource, and is designated in the City's General Plan for Open Space uses.
The property to the south of the site is proposed for the
development of single family residences included as Phase 2 of
Santa Fe Knolls (CT 75-9(B)). The properties to the east and west are designated for Rural Estate Single Family Residential
and Clustered Multifamily Residential respectively, on the La
Costa Master Plan.
111. ANALYSIS
Planning Issues
1) Does the proposed tentative map meet the requirements
of the Carlsbad Zoning Ordinance?
2) Does the proposed project meet the requirements of Carlsbad's Subdivision Ordinance and the State Subdivision Map Act?
3) Will the design of the project protect the valuable
riparian habitat existing along the northern properti boundary?
Discuss ion
The design of this project is essentially the same as the previous approved tentative map. The only changes include, tl
extension of Sitio Bay from the south to the north throuahout property, the elimination of one cul-de-sac, and the minor
changes. It is staffs opinion that compared to the already
approved tentative map, CT 75-9(B), this proposed project is equal to, if not better, because the circulation system
throughout the property has been improved.
redesign of residential lots associated with these circulatioi

The proposed tentative map complies with all of the requiremen of the Carlsbad Zoning Ordinance. All of the lots will have a
minimum area of 7500 sq. ft. as required by R-1-7500 zone standards. All of the lots will gain access from public
streets.
This subdivision meets all of the requirements of the Carlsbad
map and improvements are consistent with the Carlsbad General Plan. The site is physically suited for the type and density
development proposed by the applicant. If all of the mitigati
measures listed in the conditions of approval are fully
implemented, the proposed subdivision and its improvements sho not cause substantial environmental damage. Also, the propose subdivision and its required improvements should not cause serious public health problems, nor will the desiqn of the subdivision conflict with any easements.
Staff had concerns about the riparian woodland habitat existin
along the northern property boundary. This habitat includes a
number of mature Coast Live Oak and Sycamore trees. The applicant revised the tentative map by pulling back the fill
slopes along the northern property boundary where possible frc the dripline of the habitat area, thereby preserving several 0 and Sycamore trees. Although three Oak and one Sycamore tree
this project will not have an adverse unmitigable impact on th riparian habitat environment. The revised project will mainta
the majority and overall integrity of this riparian area.
Conditions are included within this report to adequately mitig
the identified biological impact.
In conclusion, staff feels that the proposed tentative tract n
complies with all applicable ordinances, and that the projects
design, with mitigation measures recomm.ended as conditions of approval, will adequately protect the riparian habitat located along the northern property boundary, therefore recommends
approval of CT 85-5.
