General Plan Amendment and locks in the density €or this prc at a maximum of 5 du's/acre. The tentative map and planned unit development were first h the city Council on October 29 of last year. project was proposed as a 537 unit development consisting 1 of condominiums. The City Council sent the project back to Planning Cornmission with the understanding that the applica should meet with the surrounding property owners to try and some of their COTIC~C~S. Xajor areas of neighborhood concer expressed included density (8.39 du's/ac), product type and access. A revised project containing 311 ilnits )vas presented to the Planning Commission on January 22. After receiving input f neighbors the Planning Commission added several conditions project and voted to approve it. 9ne of the conditions ad6 required the applicant to increase the size of a number of lots which did not conform to City policy. As a result, t'r project has been lowered to 299 single family mits. The 1 is now proposed at 4.67 du's/ac. This is at the low end of recently approved RM designation (4-8 du's/ac). The produc proposed is largely small-lot single family units (3500 sq, lots) with some larger lots (up to 1 acre) located on the F portion of the site. du's/ac (RMH) to 4-8 du's/acre (RM).

The product type is now single family and t density has been greatly reduced. The only reinaining issue access. Based on input from property owners on Alicante the applicant had proposed closing off the min road through the project so that only a small number of units could exit on t Alicante Road (refer to attached Exhibit labeled - Residents Preferred Access). The rest of the units would have to gain ingress and egress through two additional access points loca directly on Alga. Neither staff nor the Planning Commissior support this concept because of safety issues affecting all Costa residents using Alga Road. The steepness of Alga in t area and the corresponding high speeds makes access extreme1 hazardous on to that street. Alicante Road is signalized, f a safe place for access an to Alga. Alicante Road was desic handle the majority of traffic Erom this project. The Plan] Commission has conditioned this project to incorporate full through the project to Alicante Road as recommended by the I Traffic Engineer. All of the other major recommendations from surrounding pro] owners were incorporated into the project including a subst< reduction in density. The Planning Commission and staff arc recommending approval of both the zone change and the tenta map. It should be noted that approval does not allow this to be built at this tine. 9 community facilities managemen program for the area in which the project is located must 'n~ prepared before the project can move forward.

I. RECOMMENDATION That the Planning Commission ADOPT Resolution No. 2492, recommending APPROVAL of CT 84-417PUD-77 to the City Council based on the findings and subject to the conditions containe the rein. 11. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The applicant is requesting approval of a 311 unit tentative tract map and planned unit development, located as described above. The proposed project will be located on a 64 acre si and have a density of 4.85 du/ac. This is in conformance wi site of RMH, Residential Medium High (8-15 du/ac). (A Gener Plan Amendment is currently being processed to change the Ge Plan to RM ( 4-8 du’s/ac) . The proposed density is in confor with the RM density). The proposed project will consist of the following uses, proposed to be developed in 16 phases: 1) Nineteen (19) single-family detached homes on average 6 square foot lots, located adjacent to Alicante Road and across the street fron the La Costa Valley Subdivision. These residential lots will be sold for custom home d eve 1 opmen t . and below the low end of the General Plan designation for th 2) Thirteen (13) single-family detached homes on lots whic in size from 7,750 square feet to over one acre, locate within the northeast corner of the property, adjacent t the large-lot custom homes of Estates North. These residential lots will be sold for custom home developmc 3) Two hundred and eighty (280) detached patio homes on IC which vary in size from 3,000 square feet to 10,659 sqt feet, located throughout the remainder of the property, These patio homes will range in size from 1,181 square to 1,494 square feet. 0 In association with the residences, three community recreatic areas consisting of swimming pools, cabanas, barbeque, and pz areas are proposed. In addition, two tennis courts, three tc lots and four picnic/barbeque areas will be located through01 the property, Access to the property is proposed from Alicante Road and Alga Road. The project site is presently vacant and slopes steeply from north and west to the southeast. Approximately one half of site has been previously disturbed by a borrow operation. TI remainder of the property is covered by coastal sage scrub, Freshwater marsh and riparian habitats have formed in the ma drainage along the eastern property line. These habitats arl considered as rare and valuable wildlife habitats. The property to the north of the project site across Alga Ro designated RM (4-8 du/ac) and is undeveloped. The property the south is designated RMH (8-15 du/ac), is fully developed projects ranging in density from 18 to 20 du/ac, The proper (0 to 1.5 du/ac) and developed with large lot single family custom homes (Estates North). The property to the west acro Alicante Road is designated RLM (0 to 4.0 du/ac) and is deve with single family residences on minimum 10,000 square foot lots. 111. ANALY S IS Planning Issues the east contains an open space lot and also area designated - 1) Does the proposed project conform to the development standards of the Planned Development Ordinance? 2) Does the project conform to the design criteria of the Planned Development Ordinance? 3) Is the proposed project compatible with adjacent land u and acceptable to surrounding residents? 4) Does the proposed project address the environmental sensitivities of the site? DISCUSSION The proposed project adequately complies with the developmen standards of the Planned Development Ordinance. All residences will have a two-car garage with a minimum dimensi of 400 square feet. This will provide the adequate space to fulfill the storage requirements as well as provide parking two cars. Adequate guest parking will be available in parki bays scattered throughout the project. -2- a W All residences will be set back at least 20 feet from frontii private driveways or streets in conformance with the Planned Development Ordinance, All units will also have minimum fivt foot sideyard setbacks and a minimum rearyard dimension of 1' feet. In addition, three community recreation areas, each consisting of a swimming pool, cabana and patio/barbeque are( are proposed. Two tennis courts, three tot lots and four picnic/barbeque areas will also be located throughout the property. The project also conforms with the design criteria of the P1 Development Ordinance at the density proposed. The project been laid out to provide views for many of the units. Heavy landscaping and entry monuments will provide attractive entr to the project from along Alga Road and Alicante Road. Enri pavement will also be provided along all neighborhood privat street entryways, The common recreation areas proposed will to create visual breaks throughout the project. These recre areas are conveniently located and readily accessible to all units within the project. All manufactured slopes will be heavily landscaped to enhance the visual quality of the proj For these reasons, staff feels that the project justifies th density proposed. It is staff's opinion that the project as proposed is compat , with surrounding land uses. Of particular concern is the project's compatibility with the large lot, single-family residential subdivisions to the east and west of the propert While there is no question that the proposed project will be more intense than these surrounding projects, it is nonethel felt by staff that the applicant has attempted to design the project to ensure its compatibility with adjacent uses by; (1) including only single-family residences within the proje along the eastern and western sides of the property, nearest the existing aforementioned single-family residential subdivisions. With regard to the project's acceptance by surrounding resid the applicant has met with surrounding residents to listen t their concerns over the development of the subject property. These suggestions included; that the property be developed exclusively with single-family residences and that the proje access along Alicante Road be limited to reduce potential tr nuisance and/or congestion impacts. In accordance, the proj has been designed to include only single-family residences, to include a cul-de-sac access along Alicante Road, whereby 19 dwelling units will take access onto/off of Alicante iioad The remainder of the 292 project units will take access alor Alga Road. Attached as Exhibit "K" , is a letter from the LE design, and by (2) incorporating the larger residential lots -3- 0 0 Costa Community Awareness Group, expressing support of the proposed project. Although the surrounding community is supportive of the proposed project, it is staff's opinion th through access from Alga Road to Alicante Road is the prefer alternative would result in a more equitable distribution of project trips along Alicante and Alga Roads instead of loadi the majority of project trips at the Alga Road access point. Staff feels that the alignment as proposed comprises safety Alga Road. This portion of Alga Road is on a hill where vehicle speeds tend to accelerate. Alicante Road was design collect the traffic generated from this project. A type of traffic signal currently exists at Alga and Alicante Roads, making that a safe entrance onto Alga Road. The project has also been designed to ensure the preservatio the existing onsite stream and riparian habitat located with the southeastern corner of the property. All proposed development has been pulled back from this sensitive area an all manufactured slopes adjacent to this area will be plante with native vegetation. In conclusion, staff believes that the proposed project is consistent with the development standards and design criteri the Planned Development Ordinance and is compatible with adjacent land uses and acceptable to surrounding residents. Therefore, staff recommends approval of CT 84-41/PUD-77. IV.

DONOVAN DED:DAF:saf Attachment a 0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Carlsbad Traffic Impact Fee Study by Barton-Aschman Associates, Inc. April, 1986 Transportation system improvements are needed and will be nee in the future based on development trends in the La Costa arc the City of Carlsbad. The City retained Barton-Aschman Associates, Inc. to determine the necessary roadway requiremc to meet existing and future traffic demand, and to recommend financing method to implement the improvements. In sequence, the study determined appropriate area boundarie: identified short and long-range developments within the stud! area, calculated present and future levels of service on the transportation network, determined what improvements would bc needed to correct deficiencies, estimated how much money wou: .I ip needed to fund the improvements, and finally, evaluated alternative funding mechanisms for raising the needed revenuc The geometrics of the existing roadway network were taken as starting point, with all needed improvements to be added to existing street system. When so considered, some 46 differei construction projects were recommended. The projects were p into two categories: (1) Those needed now ‘or to satisfy alre approved or committed projects, and (2) those additionally nl in the future as development proceeds to General Plan buildo -_. 0 0 The study determined that projects in the first category tote $1 1.5 million, while those needed ultimately total an additic $22.5 million. Thus, the total street improvement needs, to buildout of the General Plan, will cost $34 million. A dollar assessment per trip generated, to be called a Traffi Impact Fee, is the recommended financing mechanism. It provi the most direct tie between new traffic generated by area development and funds needed to improve roadways to accornmoda new traffic demand. The amount of the fee can be calculated dividing the number of future trips to be generated into the amount of money to be raised. As an example, the $34 millior General Plan buildout could be divided by SANDAG's estimate c 141,242 future trips to be generated, and would result in a E daily trip fee of $240. .. In setting the per trip fee, the City has several options: 1) The project list might be reduced depending on other func sources that might be available. 2) There could be a differentiation between residential trip and other trips such as commercial or industrial, due to phenomenon of "double-counting". -. . 3) The project list might be reduced through the City's willingness to accept a level of service lower than "average". 2 e 0 4) The future needs (and future trips generated) might be reduced through a reduction of allowable density in the General Plan. Because actual development may take place differently than assumed under the General Plan, the analysis of the Traffic Impact Fee should be frequently renewed, no less than once ev two years. Finally, this type of analysis could be expanded to determine appropriate roadway improvements and financing mechanisms for other areas in the City of Carlsbad. -. . 3 0 e @ MEMORANDUM DATE: APRIL 23, 1986 TO: PLANNING COMMISSION FKOM; PLANNING DEPARTMENT SUBJECT: ZC-342 - CITY OF CARLSBAD (ALGA HILLS) - Request for Zone Change from RD-M to RD-M-5 for a 64 acre site located at the southeast corner of Alga Road and Alicante iioad, RECOMMENDATION Staff is recommending that the Planning Commission reaffirm decision to recommend APPROVAL of ZC-342 and return the item Council, DISCUSSION On January 22, 1986, the Planning Commission recommended app of ZC-342 in association with GPA/LU 85-13.

I. RECOMMENDATION That the Planning Commission recommend APPROVAL of the Negal Declaration issued by the Land Use Planning Manager and ADO1 Resolution Nos. 2518 and 2519 recommending APPROVAL of GPA/ 13/2C-342, based on the findings contained therein. 11. PROJECT DESCRIPTION On September 25, 1985, the Planninq Commission approved a development (Alga Hills) on the subject property located as described above (Planning Commission Resolution No. 2492). During the course of this Commission hearing, a number of surrounding residents spoke in opposition to the proposed project relative to its potential traffic and land use compatibility impacts. On October 29, 1985, the Alga Hills project was scheduled t heard before City Council. Prior to any discussions on thi item, the applicant's project engineer requested a continua the Alga Hills hearing in order to meet with the surroundin residents to resolve their aforementioned project concerns. Council discussion of this project continued regarding the compatibility of the subject property's RMH land use designation, with surrounding lower intensity residential 1 uses and land use designations. The City Council directed staff to undertake a review of the existing RMH land use designation on the subject property and to bring it before Planning Commission for reevaluation. request for a 537-unit tentative tract map and planned unit e 0 111. ANALYSIS Planning Issues 1) Is a land use designation of RM (Residential Medium) mc appropriate for the site than the existing RMH (Reside] Medium High) designation? 2) Would the uses allowed by the RM General Plan Designat. be compatible with surrounding uses, existing and propc 3) Is the proposed zoning consistent with the General Plai 4) Would the proposed zoning be consistent and compatible surrounding zoning? DISCUSSION As shown on Exhibit "A", the subject property is surrounded four different land use designations including, RM (4 - 8 d to the north across Alga Road, RMH (8 - 15 du/ac) to the so RL (0-1.5 du/ac) to the east and RLM (0-4 du/ac) to the wes across Alicante Road. The property to the north is currently undeveloped. The property to the south is fully developed with multi-family residential, ranging in density from 18 to 20 du/ac. The property to the east is developed with large lot single-fam custom homes (Estates North). The property to the west, ac Alicante Road is developed with single-family residences on minimum 10,000 square foot lots. In the original staff report for the proposed 537 unit Alga tentative map (since revised) and planned unit development subject property, it was discussed that staff had a concern regarding the existing RMH designation on the property. It staff's opinion that based upon the sites topographic const (35 percent of the site has slopes of 25 percent or greater RMH land use designation on the property may not be appropr In view of these concerns, it is staff's opinion that the property should be redesignated to RM. Implementation of t lower density residential designation would minimize land u compatibility impacts, reduce potential traffic impacts, an would likely also result in less topographic alteration thr more sensitive project design. With regard to identifying which land use designation would more appropriate for the site and more compatible with surrounding uses, it is staff's opinion that the appropriat designation should be selected to fit the proposed Alga Hi1 project subsequent to a resolution of pertinent land use is between the applicant and the surrounding residents. its location between lower intensity residential land uses, -2- 0 e It is noted here that subsequent to the October 29, 1985, C Council hearing, the applicant met with surrounding resideni listen to their concerns over the Alga Hills project. response to their concerns over land use compatibility and traffic, the project was redesigned whereby the following c: were made: 1) The number of residential units was reduced from 5 2) The project density was reduced from 8.39 du/ac to du/ac. 3) All attached product types were eliminated and rep with single-family residences. Residential units located adjacent to Alicante Road will have an ave lot area of 6,000 square feet. Residential units located in the northeast corner of the property an adjacent to the large lot custom homes (Estates No to the east will vary in size from 7,750 square fe over one acre. The remainder of the property will developed with patio homes. 4) The access road to and throughout the property has redesigned to form two cul-de-sac roads instead of private through street as proposed in the original project design. Implementation of this revision w reduce the number of project related trips along Alicante Road in that only 19 proposed residential units will be able to take access along Alicante. remainder of the project residences (292) will tak access along Alga Road. Although residents along it is staff's opinion that a through access from A to Alicante Road is the preferred circulation alternative. In 311. Alicante Road are supportive of this project revis The surrounding residents have indicated to staff that, in accordance with these changes, they are supportive of the project. The primary objective of the applicant and the Co was to come up with a plan/designation for the subject proF which was agreeable to all concerned. Since it now appears an acceptable plan has been agreed to, it is staff's opinio the land use designation for the property be changed to RM du/ac). This land use designation would enable the agreed project, which is at a density of 4.85, to be developed on site. The RM designation and more specifically, the revise Hills project will be more compatible with surrounding land in particular the large lot single-family residential subdivisions to the east and west of the property. Should new owners would still have to comply with the revised designation. proposed Alga Hills project not be built, and the property -3- 0 e In accordance with the recommended General Plan redesignatic from RMH to RM, staff also recommends that the property be rezoned from RD-M to RD-M-5. This zone change is consistenl the General Plan. The RD-M-5 zone would implement the RM (4 du/ac) designation. This rezone would also limit the ultimi development intensity on the property to a maximum of 5 du/; This rezone would enable the applicant to implement the rev Alga Hills plan which has been agreed upon by the surroundii residents. This rezone which restricts the allowable densif the site to 5 du/ac maximum, would also provide a level of comfort to the City in the event that the proposed Alga Hi1 project is never developed. Any future development proposa this property would not be able to exceed this development intensity. The proposed RD-M-5 zone would also be consiste compatible with surrounding zoning. Properties to the nort east are zoned P-C, property to the west is zoned R-1-10 an property to the south is zoned RD-M. Overall, staff believes that the proposed RM General Plan Amendment would be more appropriate for the site than the existing RMH designation. The proposed zone change to RD-M also consistent with the General Plan. Since the revised A Hills plan is acceptable to surrounding residents and to st and because the proposed General Plan Amendment and rezone enable the revised Alga Hills plan to be implemented, staff recommends approval of GPA/LU 85-13/ZC-342.

April, 1986 Transportation system improvements are needed and will be net in the future based on development trends in the La Costa arc the City of Carlsbad. The City retained Barton-Aschman Associates, Inc. to determine the necessary roadway requiremc to meet existing and future traffic demand, and to recommend financing method to implement the improvements. In sequence, the study determined appropriate area boundarie: identified short and long-range developments within the stud! area, calculated present and future levels of service on the transportation network, determined what improvements would bc needed to correct deficiencies, estimated how much money wou needed to fund the improvements, and finally, evaluated alternative funding mechanisms for raising the needed revenul The geometrics of the existing roadway network were taken as starting point, with all needed improvements to be added to existing street system. When so considered, some 46 differe construction projects were recommended. The projects were p into two categories: (1) Those needed now ‘or to satisfy alre approved or committed projects, and (2) those additionally n in the future as development proceeds to General Plan buildo - .. 0 e The study determined that projects in the first category tot, $1 1.5 million, while those needed ultimately total an additic $22.5 million. Thus, the total street improvement needs, to buildout of the General Plan, will cost $34 million. A dollar assessment per trip generated, to be called a Traff Impact Fee, is the recommended financing mechanism. It prov the most direct tie between new traffic generated by area development and funds needed to improve roadways to accommodi new traffic demand. The amount of the fee can be calculated dividing the number of future trips to be generated into the amount of money to be raised. As an example, the $34 millior General Plan buildout could be divided by SANDAG's estimate ( 141,242 future trips to be generated, and would result in a 1 daily trip fee of $240. In setting the per trip fee, the City has several options: 1) The project list might be reduced depending on other fun( sources that might be available. 2) There could be a differentiation between residential trig and other trips such as commercial or industrial, due to phenomenon of "double-counting". -_. 3) The project list might be reduced through the City's willingness to accept a level of service lower than "average" . 2 e e 4) The future needs (and future trips generated) might be reduced through a reduction of allowable density in the General Plan. Because actual development may take place differently than assumed under the General Plan, the analysis of the Traffic Impact Fee should be frequently renewed, no less than once ey two years. Finally, this type of analysis could be expanded to determint appropriate roadway improvements and financing mechanisms foi other areas in the City of Carlsbad. -_. 3 A . -- -- ..b...LIIb&L. 8 a ___-.. ............. r;; ; .. ...... ,,mnm,,Y)mm.z4~ ?:a ozr : 5:g~ rn =~~ vI pcZ o Omorry,o y,m sB~~xcz+~xcc~ m ;:$E;$ g %It =p g g;; g ;;f k :$jp&k;$ p@;sfw%;@$$f: 2 Kc<"n" p 5, @$ z ;;; E =a0 n 632";;s;50: ;;; $ RE: e;! * o :$$g2:5::;;; ~~&$:;~~:::w= z ::i:ss .,.ew:o jn % g: 02 < 6;: 2 m 9.~~wR~e:~aK~K"~a~~~~~~~~~~~ z ?rnT<rn* v) .,& .) * ;;t ; 2;: 7 ~~~~n~e~:~,,R~B:~:~8~~e~~~~ czF-"m<z;-mo zs zi 0 + +p5, $iG::A 0 :I+' p $ > nrt E: ;;:"E:$:"::". :os-.+, m >Y)- v , Rz;"-";ra::$;azs 2 $;;$f;$ "5 co ;:?.gd Y', 5y:+:26:o"g;; Y) ", p: 0 :I: ;;g 4= =' &;ggp;; :;X* * :03:@g ' z :s$:g"p; Bpi a9-,5.- $;&gs 4= Az; $ EO~~I~G+ f?,08Q Ez: z 5; 0 nggq $ ~ Yl 5,s Y) 2 t g :<z5,8;;s ;-;n' -2 zk?: 6 ;: ' 5; 55 E TI 5 2 + X& D r, 8 6 ;;e 5 $ 2; h: 2 i: zg I,7 E; x: $8 !!< :E I$ -%Eg$07>-::oog m g;y:m* r :I; $io. 0 i~ xm F -~ D ;:~$~7ywomw' LO Tm~;~~::~ r~~;m:~~~~~~4~~~~~ F E2z5g; m 2c Fmg :si 7 ,,,Tsom~~f:5~~~~-~~n"=~~~~~ x: m .-xegza 6 ;, ~~ 0': 2 2': :0;:5 .:OR -I ae - ZFg;? .?:-E f :.*ze ;g;B mmm D 26 CTT - nmY -0 - a00 0 "S u i3 0 nz .* F c- Y) i. !j $! mDY - c, 00- = , -.- 20 z 0 " d g 0 a MAY 7, 1986 TO : FRANK ALESHIRE , CITY YANAGEK ,I FROM: Michael Holaniller , Planning Director F+dl ALGA RILLS (CT 84-41/PUD-77) RESOLUTION NO. 2550 The Planning Commission Resolution approved for this project w drafted and sent to the Commission before the City Council mad their recent changes regarding the increase to the Public Facility Fee and the La Costa Traffic Impact Pee.
