Grading d development would not appreciably alter the environmental impac to the existing site constraints - open space easement, st slopes, and connection with existing roadways. ClUSt€ development with small lots is an alternate site design; howet the biological impacts would not be any different. The neqat visual impacts would most likely be much greater- Larger g would be required and thus more grading. Such a project wc also present a very dense appearance and be incompatible b approved development to the west. - 21, . in one area would impact another area. Additionally, phasing b) Other site designs for the proposed development are limited -6- 101 : VIA&E ALTERNATIVES T & HE PROPOSED PROJECT (Continued) e) This alternative would involve a change in the density of project and would result in a reduction of the number residential units. As a consequence, the project would gene slightly less traffic, air quality emissions and noise. Eff associated with development onsite and the conversion of va land to urbanized uses would be essentially the same under option. Adoption of this alternative could reduce effects biological and visual resources by reducing the encroachmeni the project into steep slopes and sensitive biological habit; The current project has already been designed to avoid tl areas as much as possible. A project redesign would eliminate any significant environmental effects. Given current zoning, General Plan designation, and open SI dedication, a reduced project is not feasible. d) Alternative uses are not appropriate for this constrained S: Single family residential is the most flexible and site sensit type of land use for this location. Single family residentia: also consistent with the General Plan and LCP designation for 1 site. .. e) The proposed project is consistent with development occurrinc the vicinity. This includes residential units to the south west. The project, therefore, will be consistent with surrounc land uses. Due to existing or approved development, pul facilities will be available to serve this site. f) Development on another site could possibly reduce the numbei . impacts created by the project; however, these impacts have t . addressed in the attached mitigation measures. The site w( still be designated for residential uses so that construcl elsewhere would in effect only delay development of the site g) The "no project" alternative would retain the site in undeveloped state. The changes in land use, visual qual biology, cultural resources and noise as well as incremei increases in traffic and air quality would not occ 'Implementation of this alternative would not necessarily elimii future development and associated environmental effects since property is designated by the City for residential development is surrounded by existing and future residential developmc Given the continued growth in the City of Carlsbad, as well a, the entire region, the demand for new residential development i continue. The proposed project is consistent with the Genc Plan and as conditioned would not have any significant, advc environmental effects. Therefore this alternative would re! only in a delay of development of the site. -7- m - YES MAYBE m '22. Mandatorv findinas of siqnificance - a. Does the project have the potential to substantially degrade the quality of the.environment, substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wild- life species, cause a fish or wildlife population to drop below self-sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or animal CO~Unity, reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or en- dangered plant or animal, or eliminate important examples of the major periods of California history or prehistory. b. Does the project have the potential to achieve short-term, to the dis- advantage of long-term, environmental goals? (A short-term impact on the environment is one which occurs in a relatively brief, definitive period of time while long-term impacts will endure well into the future.) c. Does the project have the possible environmental effects which are in- dividually limited but cumulatively considerable? (*'cumulatively con- siderablell means that the incremental - effects of an individual project are considerable when viewed in connection with the effects of past projects, the effects of other current projects, and the effects of probable future projects.) d. Does the project have environmental effects which will cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, - either directly or indirectly? - 111. DISCUSSION OF ENVIRONMENTAL EVALUATION The applicant proposes the development of a 40.5 acre site with SlIlgle-family residential dwelling units. A proposed open space 1 including the SDG&E easement, would retain approximately 13.2 acres the total 40.5 acres) in natural open space in the western portion the site, with approximately 3 additional acres of open space easernei placed on the slopes throughout the proposed development. The averi proposed lot size is 8,800 square feet, resulting in a developme density of approximately 3.1 dwelling units (d.u.1 per acre of lar Access to the site would be from Alga Road to the south and from th -a- 1 0 - DIYCUSSION OF ENVIRON AF, TAL EVALUATION (Continued) future southern extension of Mimosa Street to the site's n boundary. Internal circulation would include the project's ex of Mimosa Street south to Alga Road, an internal loop road w Connections t0 Mimasa Street ,. and three small cul-de-sacs, A landscaping plan has been proposed for all manufactured slopes project. The exterior slopes which are contiguous to the ope area will provide a transitional appearance from the existing habitat to semi-natural species along the bottom of the slc ornamental species from the middle to the top of the slope. The on the interior of the development will be primarily planted mixture of ornamental species. The preliminary grading plan proposes 213, 000 cubic yards of fill, resulting in no export material. Manufactured slopes of 1 gradient would be created in a number of areas onsite, -with a slope height of 30 feet. The proposed grading plan would result majority of the development concentrated in the eastern and portions of the site, with the open space lot situated to the the residences, The Southwestern boundary of residential deve would be the SDGbrE easement. Some grading would occur southwestern corner of the site along Alga Road to accommod# construction of Alga Road. 1. Earth The proposed development will regrade the existing north-soutl by lowering it approximately 20 feet. The design typically pi terraced pads following the general terrain. This is con5 with the City's grading and hillside ordinances which hav implemented in the project. Any increase in runoff will be dc by way of temporary basins and erosion control practice! unstable earth conditions or unique geologic structures are on the project site or general vicinity. 2. Air The project would contribute to the incremental increase il and regional emissions; however, the residential buildout ( site is planned for in the City's General Plan. It has al! included in the residential buildout of the Local Fac Management Plan for Zone 6. The emissions generated b development have been anticipated and would not adversely the attainment of regional air quality standards. Const emissions are considered short-term and insignificant. -9- Q ' DI:!CUSSION OF ENVIRO dhTAL EVALUATION (Continued) A 3. Water Development of the project would create impervious surfacg which would reduce absorption rates and increase surface ri runoff Velocities. To accommodate this runoff, when del occurs the project will be conditioned to install drainage fa4 and slope erosion control measures. As identified in t: Facilities Management Plan for Zone 6, all existing drainagc within this zone are adequate to serve the residents anc property in this area. The subject site will connect underground pipe system and empty into an existing mastei desiltation basin which discharges into Batiquitos Laqoon. 4. Plant Life The proposed project would develop 27.3 of the 40.5 acres w project site. There are no rare or endangered plant species on the property. Identified on the subject site are four ! plants species which will be affected by the proposed devl This represents an incremental but insignificant impact regional populations of these plant species. The project site contains 6.2 acres of land with slopes c greater which contain mixed chaparral, oak woodland, and areas. Of this 6.2 acres, 1.9 acres would be impacted, how acres are already disturbed. This loss is offset by the ret a much larger 13.2 acre open space system onsite. Three-ten acre of oak woodland has already been removed by the constr Alga Road. The proposed landscape plan would introduce ornamental spe' a site currently containing native vegetation. The plan wo native species directly adjacent to all open space areas. Th native species would transition into mixed species and 1 purely ornamental species. This gradual transition would s buffer between native and non-native plant life, redu potential impacts to below a level of significance. 5. Animal Life Development of the site would remove some animal habitat; retention of the open space onsite would serve as a functiona for species in the project vicinity. In addition, reduce would be expected as larger predators are excluded a influences take effect. Therefore, the reduction of the an onsite does not represent a significant impact. -10- 1 eJ L DIPCUSSION OF ENVIRO __ JR NTAL EVALUATION (Continued) .- Although development of the project would reduce some of the habitat onsite, the retention Of the 13.2 acre open space serve as a functional habitat, thus reducing the adverse i a level of insignificance. 6. Noise The traffic generated by the proposed project would incr contribute to the community noise levels along Alga Road ai project vicinity. community buildout would increase noise le the 60 dB(A) CNEL standard in those areas onsite immediately to Alga Road. The incorporation of noise walls and balcon those areas affected by the significant traffic noise wou onsite noise levels to below a level of significance. I 7. Liaht and Glare The development of the Viewpoint site would introduce st residential lighting and reflective surfaces (windows) on a is currently undeveloped. However, residential homes exist south of the site, the Pacific Rim project is being developed to the site to the west, and a commercial/post office/cit- complex is proposed directly to the east. Because there street lights in the area, there will be more liqht and g1a future Once the adjacent complex and Pacific Rim are built project would incrementally, and insignificantly, contributd and glare in the project vicinity. 8.. Land Use The proposed project will develop a currently vacant site single-family dwelling units and an open space lot. Altho is an alteration of the existing land use, residential devel the site at a density of up to 4 dwelling units per ac conformance with the City of Carlsbad General Plan. The the site would place the zoning of the site in conformance General Plan designation, therefore, no significant land us would occur. 9. Natural Resources Implementation of the proposed project will incrementally c to the depletion of fossil fuel and other natural resources for construction of the project. This is not regarc significant impact in view of the limited scale of the proj 10. Risk of Upset The proposed project, due to its residential nature, does nc a significant increase in the use of chemicals, pesticides, hazardous materials. -11- I e DI'XUSSION OF ENVIRO !ab "TAL EVALUATION (Continued) ' 11.

Human Health The proposed residential project will not create any healt as a result of development of the subject site. 18. Aesthetics The proposed grading plan for the project would create mal slopes which would range up to 30 feet in height. In the t -12- I a - DI3CkJSSION OF ENVIRO IdE NTAL EVALUATION (Continued) portion of the property, these slopes would be above manufactured slopes of up to 20 feet in height, resulting in artificial slope along the eastern site boundary that would b from El Camin0 Real to the east. However, buildout of the c complex between the road and the Viewpoint property and the landscaping of the slope would ultimately obstruct the viet slope. Views of the site from the south would not be sign altered, although the 30 foot manufactured slope would be v motorists along Alga Road and Mimosa Views from thc Rim project to the west would not change appreciably. No sic impacts are anticipated. Street. 19. Recreation The project will be required to pay park-in-lieu fees as a contributing towards the fulfillment of park requirements southwest quadrant of the City. 20. Archaeolouical/Historical/Paleontolouical Development of the Viewpoint project would result in thl disturbance of prehistoric site SDi-4358 (W-108) and indirect. the portion of SDi-4358 (W-108) located to the north of the E This disturbance is considered a potentially significant i cultural resources.

I. RECOMMENDATION That the Planning Commission ADOPT Resolution No. 2834 recommending APPROVAL the Negative Declaration issued by the Planning Director, and ADOPT Resolutio 2831, 2832, and 2833 recommending APPROVAL of ZC-341/CT 85-34/HDP 88-19, bas on the findings and subject to the conditions contained herein. 11. PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND The app’licant is proposing a tentative tract map to subdivide the subject si into 90 single family lots and one open space lot. The proposed open space 1 would retain approximately 13.2 acres in natural open space in the weste portion of the site, with approximately 3 additional acres of open spa easements placed on the slopes throughout the project. The project, locat within the Coastal Zone, will also require approval of a zone change fr Limited Control (LC) to R-1-7500(Q)/Open Space (OS) as well as approval of Hillside Development Permit. The site has a General Plan designation Residential Low Medium (RLM 0-4) which will continue to be in effect. The proposed project was originally submitted in September 1985; however, duri review of the project a number of changes in City policy occurred whi contributed to revisions of the project as well as delays in processing. So of these changes included the La Costa Traffic Study, the Growth Manageme, Ordinance, the Local Facilities Management Plan for Zone 6, the Hillsic Ordinance, the City Noise Policy, and the southwest quadrant park dedicatioi The applicant has addressed these policy changes and has redesigned the proje several times to accommodate each change as it occurred. The average proposed lot size is 8,800 square feet, resulting in a developme density of approximately 3.1 du/acre. The project connects with Mimosa Stre Lane to the north. to the south and provides for a connection with the future extension of DO 1 I' e a ZC-341/CT 85-34/HDP 8&-19 VIEWPOINT April 19, 1989 PAGE 2 The topography of the site is dominated by a north-south trending ridge, whi is cut by numerous gullies, particularly to the west. The eastern side of I ridge is relatively level. The site vegetation consists primarily of nati chaparral, with small areas of oak woodland in the northwestern and southwest€ corners of the site, and scrub vegetation in the eastern portion of the si1 The entire site drains to the south toward Batiquitos Lagoon. The project s- is essentially undeveloped at this time. A portion of the grading for the AI Road extension has recently been completed along the southern boundary of t site, extending into the Pacific Rim development. Improvements onsite inclu a number of dirt roads that traverse the property and a San Diego Gas a Electric (SDG&E) service easement that contains a high voltage overhe transmission line across the southwestern quarter of the site. Adjacent to t property to the north are agricultural lands and single-family residences; the south are single-family homes; to the east is the recently approved Von C Ahe commercial site; and to the west is an undeveloped elementary school sit The preliminary grading plan proposes 251,063 cubic yards of cut, 205,232 cut yards of fill, with 45,831 cubic yards of export material. Manufactured sloy: of a 2 to 1 gradient would be created in a number of areas onsite, with maximum slope height of 30 feet. Slopes along the northeast corner would rea a maximum of 54 feet when combined with approved slopes to the east. T proposed grading plan would result in the majority of the developme concentrated in the eastern and central portions of the site, with the op space lot situated to the west of the residences. The southwestern boundary residential development would be the SDG&E easement. Some grading would occ in the southwestern corner of the site along Alga Road to accommodate t construction of Alga Road. Due to the complex nature of the proposed project, all discretionary actions a related planning issues are discussed individually below. 111. ANALYSIS A. ENVIRONMENTAL P1 anninq Issues 1. Does the design of the proposed subdivision address t environmental sensitivities of the site? DISCUSSION When the project was submitted in 1985, staff completed an Environmental Impa Assessment Part I1 (Initial Study) which determined that there was a potenti< for limited environmental impacts. The project planner at that time made tl decision to require environmental studies which included biology, traffil noise, and archaeology. These studies identified potential impacts ai mitigation measures which would reduce the environmental impacts to a level I non-significance. These were prepared as a comprehensive environmental analys (Exhibit "X") and included proposed mitigation measures. Staff refined the I e 0 ZC-341/CT 85-34/HDP 88-19 VIEWPOINT April 19, 1989 PAGE 3 measures and included them as conditions in the Mitigated Negative Declaratic The applicant agreed to comply with the conditions and signed the Mitigat Negative Declaration. Major areas of environmental concern are discussed bel c 1. Circulation The proposed development will generate additional vehicular traffic of estimated 900 ADTs. The area between the project and Dove Lane has I potential to develop with approximately 40 additional single family dwell in! This area, in addition to the project site, would generate a total of 1,330 AL which can be accommodated by the proposed circulation design. The project h been conditioned to design and bond for a traffic signal at the intersection Mimosa Street and Alga Road. In addition, the project will be responsible f 100% of the cost of a signal at this intersection when traffic signal warran are met. This project has also been conditioned to provide mitigation for A1 Road and El Camino Real as identified in the Zone 6 plan (Exhibit "F"). 2. Rialaav The proposed project would develop 27.3 of the 40.5 acres within the projc site. There were no rare or endangered plant species observed on the propert Identified on the subject site were four sensitive plants species which will affected by the proposed development. This represents an incremental t insignificant impact to the regional populations of these plant species. The project site contains 6.2 acres of land with slopes of 25% or greater whi contain mixed chaparral, oak woodland, and disturbed areas. Of this 6.2 acre 1.9 acres would be impacted, however, 0.4 acres are already disturbed and acres in developable areas consist of isolated pockets of land. This loss offset by the retention of a much larger 13.2 acre open space system onsi (Exhibit "X", page 17). Three-tenths of an acre of oak woodland has alrea been removed by the construction of Alga Road; however, the proposed developme will not encroach or disturb the remainder of the oak woodland. A landscaping plan has been proposed for all manufactured slopes on the projec The exterior slopes which are contiguous to the open space area will provide transitional appearance from the existing natural habitat to semi -natur species along the bottom of the slope and ornamental species from the middle the top of the slope. The slopes on the interior of the development will primarily planted with a mixture of ornamental species. 3. Archaeoloqv Development of the proposed project would result in the direct disturbance an archaeological site located on the north-south ridge running through t middle of the property (Exhibit "X", page 5). The City has traditional required the developer to perform excavation and data recovery on archaeolo sites. This form of mitigation was included as a condition in the Mitigat Negative Declaration and agreed to by the applicant. Additionally, the propos was reviewed by the Historical Preservation Commission and found to acceptable. Excavation and data recovery is also in compliance with t Cal i forni a Environmental Qual i ty Act. r 7 9 ZC-341/CT 85-34/HDP 8-19 VIEWPOINT April 19, 1989- PAGE 4 4. Noise The City has recently approved a Noise Policy which, requires that the projecl buildout noise level be mitigated to a maximum of.60 dba CNEL at: A. B. Five feet inside the proposed project's property line at six feet above finished grade level, and Immediately above the highest window or door opening in a dwelling unit. The applicant has proposed mitigation to comply with these requirements. The proposed project will be impacted by noise from Alga Road. Buildout traff volumes along this road are projected to be approximately 24,400 ADT. Sever lots will be impacted by noise and will require sound attenuation through t use of walls/berms (4' - 6.5' in height, Exhibit "X", page 4-29). Second-stc windows and doors will also be impacted by noise from Alga Road. To redu noise levels immediately above the highest window or door opening to 60 dB( CNEL, a 7' foot balcony barrier has been required on second story windows doors on the impacted lots. This mitigation is illustrated on Exhibit "X", pa 4-30. B. ZONE CHANGE (ZC-341) P1 anninq Issues 1. Are the proposed zone changes consistent with the General Plan a Are the proposed zone changes consistent with surrounding land us and zoning? Local Coastal Plan designations on the property? 2. DISCUSSION The proposed zone change from Limited Control (LC) to R-1-7500-Q/Open Space consistent with the subject property's General Plan and Local Coastal P1 designations of RLM, Residential Low - Medium (0-4 du/acre). R-1-7500-Q is implementing zone for property designated as RLM. The rationale for t additional requirement of a Q - Overlay (site development plan) is discuss under Section E, Hillside Development Permit. The open space zoning designati will serve as an additional protection of Lot 91 by legally excludi development in this area. Both the open space zone and the proposed R-1-750 Q zone as well as the uses permitted within these zones will be consistent wii the surrounding land uses. Property to the south is already developed with I is likely to be developed similarly. Land to the west is designated in tl Pacific Rim Master Plan as an elementary school site and consistent wi. 1-7500 lots, Property to the north has the same General Plan designation ai )I 8 0 ZC-341/CT 85-34/HDP tr-19 VIEWPOINT April 19, 1989 PAGE 5 residential uses. Land to the east is proposed to be developed with a pub library and post office; however, these uses will be separated from the propo residences by a heavily 1 andscaped, intervening slope. The proposed zoning average lot size of 8,800 square feet will create development compatible w existing and potential single family development in the area. C. COASTAL P1 anninq Issues 1. Does the proposed project implement the policies of the Mello segment of the Local Coastal Plan? DISCUSSION The proposed project is consistent with the relevant policies of the Mello segments of the Local Coastal Plan. These policies include the preservation natural vegetation on steep slopes (25% or greater) and the adoption of eros control standards. Slopes of 25% or greater with native vegetation are requii to be preserved in permanent open space easements unless they would precli reasonable use of the site. The purpose of the open space easement is to redl the potential for erosion, prohibit the removal of natural vegetation, and protect visual resources. Development of the subject site has been designed to concentrate the units the flatter eastern portion to protect the steep slopes and sensitive vegetat located in the southern and western portions of the site. Seventy percent all slopes in excess of a 25 percent gradient would be preserved (Exhibits 'I page 4-23). Because the steep slope areas proposed for development are not p impacts are anticipated. In addition, the project has been reviewed by Coas Commission staff on a preliminary basis. It was their opinion that preservat- of the western portion of the site would sufficiently mitigate removal of 1 isolated pockets of steep slope areas. of a major corridor and are such small areas, no significant environmen D. TENTATIVE TRACT MAP (CT 85-34) P1 anninq Issues 1. Does the proposed tentative map satisfy all requirements of I Carlsbad Zoning Ordinance, Subdivision Ordinance, and the State f Act? As proposed, this subdivision meets all of the requirements of the Carlst Subdivision Ordinance and the Subdivision Map Act. The proposed map a improvements are consistent with the Carlsbad General Plan. The site applicant. With an average lot size of approximately 8,800 square feet, t proposed lots exceed the minimum lot size for an R-1-7500 zone. Except on 1 cul-de-sacs, all lots have a minimum street frontage of 60 feet and an aver: physically suited for the type and density of development proposed by t q m ZC-341/CT 85-34/HDP 8-19 VIEWPOINT April 19, 1989 PAGE 6 buildable pad depth of approximately 100 feet. Even the smaller pads are st large enough to accommodate single-story homes of as much as 2400 square fe( Overall, the proposed project complies with the Subdivision Ordinance and State Map Act. In addition, the project helps to fulfill a General Plan g1 of providing a variety of housing types. In the last three years, this is I first project of this size requesting approval of R-1-7500 square foot lots, E. HILLSIDE DEVELOPMENT PERMIT (HDP 88-19) Planninq Issues 1. Does the proposed project implement the development standai established by the Hillside Ordinance? DISCUSSION The proposed project is consistent with the purpose and intent of the Hillsi Ordinance and also complies with the specified development standard Generally, the ordinance addresses the following issues: density calculatic grading amounts, grading contours, and hillside design. These are discuss bel ow. Both the Hillside Ordinance and the Growth Management Ordinance consider certa lands to be undevelopable and excluded from density calculations. For tk project, these include power easements, wood1 and habitats, ha1 f of 25-4 slopes, and 40% or greater slopes. With these deleted, the proposed density 3.1 du/acre is below the growth control point of 3.2 du/acre (Exhibit "G"). Approximately 8,778 cubic yards of grading per acre is proposed. The gradi plan for the site proposes approximately 251,063 cubic yards of cut and 205,2 cubic yards of fill with 45,831 cubic yards of export (Exhibit "H"). The sit after grading, would still follow the north-south tending slope of the land wi level building pads terraced up the slope (Exhibit "I"). This is consiste with the Hillside Ordinance by preserving the general slope of the existi topography. It should be noted that normally grading amounts are usually larg for single family lot subdivisions (as opposed to PUD or condominil subdivisions) because each single family lot must have a minimum 60 foot stre frontage. In addition, the vertical and horizontal a1 ignments of streets serve such a subdivision require reduced gradients and therefore, larger amoun of grading. Slopes and streets of the proposed project are designed to follow or emula the natural land contours. Curvilinear slopes vary in height from 20 feet 30 feet. All perimeter project slopes are conditioned as open space easement The applicant will be required to landscape these slopes for fire protection well as open space maintenance as required by the City's Landscape Guidelin Manual (Pages 29-36). The applicant has also been conditioned to construct stuccoed slump block and wrought iron wall at the top of all perimeter slopc to protect the open space areas. 9 m ZC-341/CT 85-34/HDP 8-19 VIEWPOINT April 19, 1989 PAGE 7 The developer is not proposing building elevations or floor plans at the prese time. This is permissible under the Subdivision Map Act and Zoning Ordinan for single family dwelling projects not developed as planned unit development To ensure that the building designs are consistent with the Hillside Ordinanc staff required the accompanying zone change to include a Q-overlay. Th overlay will require a site development plan to be approved prior to t issuance of building permits. The site development plan will address buildi height, distances from tops of slopes, distances between structures, elevatio of buildings, and slopes of roofs. This additional level of review creates t opportunity to ensure that the proposed project is compatible with bo surrounding development as we1 1 as surrounding 1 and forms, F. GROHTH MANAGEMENT P1 anninq Issues 1. Is the proposed project consistent with the Growth Manageme Ord i nance?

Parks At the present time, there exists a park shortage of 4.2 acres in the southwe quadrant, or Park District 3. This project has been conditioned to bring par into conformance with the adopted performance standard by financing t construction of 4.2 acres to make up the current shortfall as well as t acreage required for 90 additional units within Park District 3. Prior to t recordation of the final map, the developer will be required to enter into parks agreement with the City to fund necessary park land to bring parks in conformance with the standard. 2. Drainaqe This project meets the guidelines with respect to drainage as identified in t current Master Drainage Plan. The City is currently revising this Pla therefore, the project has been conditioned whereby the applicant agrees to sic an agreement which requires him to pay any fees or construct new facilities l determined by the revi sed P1 an. 3. Circulation The LFMP for Zone 6 indicated that intersection improvements would be necessa at Alga Road and El Camino Real within one to three years (1988-1990). T proposed project directly impacts this intersection. Even though the impact minimal, the Growth Management Ordinance requires that as development occurs ti performance standards must be maintained, therefore prior to recordation of t: final map, a mitigation plan must be approved by the City Engineer to provic the needed facilities. The Pacific Rim and Von Der Ahe properties which a) further along in processing, also impact this intersection and were al: required to provide mitigation as deemed acceptable by the City Engineer. 4. Open Space The Citywide Facilities 'and Improvements Plan determined that Zone 6, as i infill zone and substantially developed, met or exceeded the open spac requirements. The proposed project, therefore did not need to address th facility; however, the applicant has agreed to dedicate 13.2 acres as permanei open space and an additional 3 acres of open space easements on the perimetf slopes. (Exhibit "J") 5. Sewer This project will sewer utilizing the South Batiquitos pump station and forc main. The Zone 6 Local Facilities Management Plan, along with the Zone 19 Loci Facilities Management Plan, identified a need to upgrade the pump station ar corresponding force main when 200 additional EDUs utilize that line. Tt proposed project has been conditioned to provide necessary financing to ensui that this line can be upgraded and, prior to recordation of the final map, th applicant will be required to provide pro rata share of funds to make thi improvement. As proposed and conditioned, the project meets the adopte performance standard for all public facilities. 9 a ZC-341/CT 85-34/HDP 8- 19 VIEWPOINT April 19, 1989' PAGE 9 GI SUMMARY The proposed project is consistent with the General Plan, the Local Coast Plan, the Zoning ordinance, the Subdivision Ordinance, the Hillside Ordinanc and the State Map Act.
