Copies to: City Council, City Manager, City Attorney, Department and Division Heads, Employee Bulletin Boards, Press, File PURPOSE To establish guidelines for allocation of "excess" dwelling units when, following the adoption of all residential Local Facilities Management Plans within a quadrant, the Proposition E quadrant cap is greater than the number of dwelling units approved or issued after November 4, 1986 plus the allowable units per the Growth Management Control Points. STATEMENT OF POLICY Although it should not be mandatory that excess dwelling units be allocated if they become available and it would be desirable to not attain the ultimate residential dwelling unit caps established by the adoption of Proposition E, the following criteria is established to determine eligibility for consideration of "excess" dwelling unit allocation, subject to the required findings in Proposition E. Projects eligible for consideration in order of priority include: 1. Housing development for low or moderate-income households as defined by California Government Code Section 65915. 2. Senior citizen housing as defined by Carlsbad Municipal Code Section 21.18.045. 3. Infill Single Family Subdivisions, Zoned R-1, that meet all development standards and where lot sizes are equal to or greater than adjacent subdivided R-1 properties. 4. Projects within the existing general plan density range that provide, without other compensation, for some significant public facility not required as part of the development process. 5. Projects proposing a zone change from non-residential to residential based upon the following findings: a) The property was zoned for other than residential use on July 1, 1986. b) The property is compatible for residential use without significant mitigation. c) The density of the project does not exceed the Growth Management Control Point of any adjacent residential property. STAFF REPORT DATE: OCTOBER 4, 1989 TO: PLANNING COMMISSION FROM: GROWTH MANAGEMENT DIVISION SUBJECT: CITY COUNCIL POLICY ON ALLOCATION OF EXCESS DWELLING UNITS; AMENDMENT TO CITYWIDE FACILITIES AND IMPROVEMENTS PLAN. I. RECOMMENDATION That the Planning Commission ADOPT Resolution No. 2928 recommending APPROVAL of A Citywide Facilities and Improvement Plan Amendment to correct the existing (1986) dwelling unit totals, based on the findings contained therein, and ADOPT Resolution No. 2929 recommending APPROVAL of City Council Policy No. 43, based on the findings contained therein. II. PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND On February 14, 1989 the City Council reviewed and adopted the recommendations, of the Citizens Committee to Study Growth. Included in those recommendations was the directive to establish guidelines for allocation of excess dwell ing units when, following the adoption of all residential Local Facilities Management Plans within a quadrant, the Proposition E quadrant cap is greater than the number of dwelling units approved or issued after November 4, 1986 plus the allowable future units per the Growth Management Control Points. This condition presently exists in the northwest quadrant of the City. During the confirmation of buildout numbers in the northwest quadrant it was determined that there was a discrepancy in the Citywide Facilities and Improvements Plan existing dwelling unit total for both the northwest and northeast quadrants of the City. At the time the plan was prepared in 1986, 607 existing dwelling units in the northeast quadrant were included in the existing dwelling unit count for the northwest quadrant and were not counted in the northeast quadrant. Review of the information and data used to prepare the residential dwelling unit numbers for inclusion in the 1986 Citywide Facilities and Improvements Plan indicates a boundary error was the cause of the discrepancy. III. ANALYSIS 1. City Council Policy The purpose of the City Council Policy is to establish guidelines for the allocation of excess dwelling units when, following the adoption of all residential Local Facilities Management Plans within a quadrant, the Proposition E quadrant cap is greater than the number of dwelling units approved or issued after November 4, 1986 plus the allowable future units per the Growth Management Control Points. CITY OF CARLSBAD October 4, 1989 PAGE 2 The Citizens Committee to Study Growth criteria to determine eligibility for consideration of excess dwelling unit allocation encompasses four main themes: preservation, choice, housing needs, and growth management. •• It provides for the preservation of neighborhood atmosphere by retaining the identity of the existing R-l neighborhoods. It ensures a variety of housing types through choice for all economic ranges. •• It seeks to meet the need to provide low and moderate income housing. It balances the housing needs of the region against the public service needs of Carlsbad's residents and available fiscal and environmental resources. 2. Citywide Facilities and Improvements Plan As the necessary adjustment to the Citywide Facilities and Improvements. Plan does not change the ultimate buildout numbers of the plan there is no effect on Citywide demand for facilities. Nor does this change the analysis found in the individual Local Facilities Management Plans as these documents accurately reflect existing dwelling unit totals. The correction of existing dwelling unit totals (1986) will affect the park demand as this facility is analyzed on a park district or quadrant basis. The amendment to the buildout assumptions will produce the following change in the parks section of the Citywide Facilities and Improvements Plan: Northwest Quadrant Population Total Required Acres Current (1986) 23,539 70.62 At Buildout 37,979 113.94 Northeast Quadrant Current (1986) 7,107 21.32 At Buildout 22,343 67.03 This information does not change the findings of the parks adequacy evaluation. Existing acreage presently does, and projected future acreage will continue to, meet the performance standard in these two quadrants. CITY OF CARLSBAD October 4, 1989 PAGE 3 IV. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The Planning Director has determined that the environmental effects of this project have already been considered in conjunction with previously certified environmental documents; and, therefore, no additional environmental review will be required and a notice of determination will be filed.
