AS-V&3. . APPROVING MPA-149(O), MP 88-1 and ZC 88-3. ITEM EXPLANATION The applicant is requesting approval of a variety of applications which cover 529 acres generally located east of El Camino Real, north of Olivenhain Road, and west of Rancho Santa Fe Road. The intended applications would establish a cohesive residential community of 1076 single family units and related recreational facilities including a common recreation/daycare center. The development also supplies two school sites, a potential church site and six miles of trails included within 135 acres of open space. The proposed project, which complies with all City ordinances and policies, includes the following discretionary actions: EIR 86-2 - The Environmental Impact Report was processed addressing all requested discretionary actions. The EIR identified short term construction noise and the change in the visual nature of the area from open space to urban uses as being significant adverse impacts that cannot be mitigated to a level of insignificance. Planning Commission and staff disagree and recommend that the City Council find that all project-related impacts can, after mitigation, be reduced to a level of insignificance. Justification for this determination is contained on pages 4 and 5 of attached Exhibit 6. MPA-149(O) - Amendment to the La Costa Master Plan (MP-149) to segment out the area previously known as La Costa Southwest (now Arroyo La Costa) and to place certain restrictions on remaining future development. MP 88-1 - A new Master Plan, in compliance with all current ordinances and standards, for the area previously known as La Costa Southwest (now Arroyo La Costa) . GPA/LU 88-1 - A General Plan Amendment to redistribute higher density land uses into medium residential and low residential areas to establish the exact location of two school sites, and to redefine open space within the Master Plan area. PAGE 2 OF AGENDA BILL NO. CT 88-3 - A Tentative Map to divide the property into 1,126 lots. PUD 88-4/HDP 88-8/SDP 88-18 - A Planned Unit Development Permit and Hillside Development Permit to allow the construction of 1,076 single family homes, as well as a Site Development Plan to create a common recreation/daycare facility. SUP 89-18 - A Special Use Permit for the construction of road improvements in the 100 year floodplain. SUP 90-8 - A Special Use Permit to demonstrate compliance with the El Camino Real Corridor Standards. The Planning Commission additionally adopted a Resolution of Intention to declare the City's intent for a future change in land use designation on the railroad parcel from Travel Services/Utility (TS/U) to a residential land use. More detailed information is included in the attached staff report to the Planning Commission. Also attached are two memorandums. The first memorandum is to the City Manager, dated July 16, 1990, which describes five concerns expressed by citizens during the project review and the Planning Commission hearing. The second memorandum, from the Traffic Consultant to the Planning Director, provides a discussion of the traffic issues. The Planning Commission heard the project on June 6, 1990, revised and/or added several conditions and on June 20, 1990 voted unanimously to approve all aspects of the project. To provide clarification, minor changes have been made to three of the conditions. In addition, since the last Planning Commission hearing one new condition has been added to the tentative map. This condition requires the applicant to enter into a third party agreement with an environmental consultant who, in conjunction with the Planning Department, will then be responsible for the extensive mitigation monitoring on this project. All revised conditions are included in the City Council Resolution for the tentative map. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT A Mitigated Negative Declaration was prepared for the Master Plan Amendment because at this time the land uses, locations, and environmental impacts for the northwest and southeast areas of La Costa are unknown. The mitigation would require environmental review and new master plans prior to review of future development in these areas of La Costa. PAGE 3 OP AGENDA BILL NO. An EIR was processed addressing all proposed discretionary approvals. The report was found by staff and the Planning Commission to have been prepared in compliance with state and local regulations. All project-related impacts will be mitigated to a level of insignificance by the application of mitigation measures required in the EIR and the amended Zone 12 Plan. FISCAL IMPACT The fiscal impact analysis prepared for the Arroyo La Costa Master Plan and reviewed by the Finance Department, indicates the project will have a net zero fiscal impact on the City. GROWTH MANAGEMENT An amendment to the Local Facilities Management Plan for Zone 12 was processed concurrently with the other applications and is fully in compliance with Proposition E and all applicable requirements of the Growth Management Ordinance. Impacts of the proposed plan are less than those projected in the original plan. EXHIBITS 1. City Council Resolution Nos. <?Q-£55 . 90-456 . 9&-A68- .QO-AZCi . qo~£fcQ . 9£-<&b/ . QD-&&3-. & 2.

Most of these have been resolved, however, the following still remain as concerns to citizens in the surrounding neighborhoods: 40' Open Space As a condition of the Santa Fe Glens project located adjacent to the northeast corner of Arroyo La Costa, the applicant on that project was required to make an irrevocable offer of dedication for a 40' easement along the south side of Santa Fe Glens. This offer was never accepted by the City. The developer for Arroyo La Costa originally proposed to utilize the 40' easement as rear yards for the new development; however, agreement was subsequently reached to preserve this area as open space, maintain fencing on both sides of the easement, and include a trail connection to Rancho Santa Fe Road for both existing and future development. Location of Junior High School Residents of the Rancho del Ponderosa development object to the proposed location of the junior high school situated at the bottom of an existing 40' slope to the north of their development. They expressed concern regarding light and noise impacts as well as a potential lowering of property values. Because this site was selected by the San Dieguito High School District, the applicant is not able to mitigate these issues entirely. The applicant has offered to install landscaping and irrigation on the slope belonging to the existing property owners. This would be done immediately and maintained by the developer for a minimum of one year so that substantial growth could occur before the school is constructed. This is still an unresolved issue with the property owners from Rancho del Ponderosa. Environmental Impact Report The EIR for this project began in 1988. During the review period, a number of inaccuracies and inconsistencies were discovered in the text. For example, some of the technical reports indicated insignificant impacts, however the summaries concluded that they were significant. At that time, the consultant was released from his contract and another firm, Ponseggi & Associates, was hired to revise the document in compliance with state and local requirements. RAYMOND PATCHETT, CITY MANAGER JULY 16, 1990 PAGE 2 The final EIR is much different than the draft because it has been revised to reflect the numerous comments made during the review period. The final EIR, has been made available at the public library so that all citizens could review the changes that were made. At the Planning Commission meeting there were only minor comments (other than traffic) made regarding environmental impacts. As previously stated, these impacts have all been reduced to a level of insignificance. Santa Fe Ridge Wall Half width improvements for Calle Barcelona are currently existing adjacent to the north of the Santa Fe Ridge development. For sound attenuation and safety protection a solid wall was required along the south side of proposed Street N-N next to Santa Fe Ridge. Because Calle Barcelona was realigned, the developer believes this wall is no longer necessary. The property owners to the south are not in agreement on whether they want a block wall, a stucco wall, or the existing wood fences. As of July 17, 1990, this issue is not resolved and the solid wall remains as a condition of exhibit "U - U". Traffic Residents from surrounding neighborhoods expressed objections to four proposed street connections from Arroyo La Costa to existing neighborhoods. A detailed discussion of this issue is included in a memorandum, dated July 2, 1990 from the Transportation Consultant to the Planning Director. This memorandum is attached to the agenda bill as exhibit 4. arb EXHIBIT 4 CITY MEMO DATE: July 2, 1990 TO: MICHAEL HOLZMILLER, Planning Director FROM: Marty Bouman, Transportation Planning Consultant SUBJECT: Arroyo La Costa Traffic Circulation Issue Traffic circulation is one of the few remaining Arroyo La Costa issues on which some citizens disagree with the Planning Commission and staff. Specifically, there are objections to four street connections from Arroyo La Costa into existing neighborhoods, despite the fact that such connections were planned and constructed as part of the original neighborhoods. These include: 1. Via - Palenque Way into Spanish Village 2. Via - Segovia Way into La Costa South, Unit 4 * 3. Via - Corte Carolina into Santa Fe Ridge * 4. Via - El Bosque into Rancho Ponderosa *Most concern expressed here The primary reasons expressed by citizens who object to the connections are based on the amount of traffic to be generated on the connecting street system, and the perceived accident risk resulting therefrom. Claims have been made that there will be heavy, fast and reckless traffic, endangering children who have been accustomed to relatively quiet, sometimes dead-end streets. There is also a fear that drivers from both old and new neighborhoods will form new travel patterns, each through the other's neighborhood, without regard for courtesy and safety. Background In the Circulation Element of the City's General Plan, a classification system is utilized which is basic and fundamental to practically all governmental agencies. At the top are freeways, designed to carry high speed traffic over long distances with practically no side-friction. At the bottom are local streets, designed to provide direct access to residences, business or industry. In between is the "distribution system". Collector streets "collect" traffic from the local streets and deliver it to three kinds of arterial streets, each with increasingly higher standards, each functioning to distribute traffic into a regional arterial network. While the total system rarely works perfectly, the concept is sound and has universal acceptance. The proposed street configuration for Arroyo La Costa, including the connections into adjacent neighborhoods, was not designed just for the benefit of future Arroyo La Costa residents, but for all residents of the area, including those who are now voicing objections. It conforms to the street hierarchy concept and provides all of the area residents with the traffic distribution system they need and are entitled to; namely, the ability to travel to and from their homes in any direction over the shortest and safest possible route. Arroyo La Costa Traffic Circulation Page 2 Discussion The basis for staffs determination on the through street connections relates to four specific areas. These include the following areas which are individually discussed below. 1. Neighborhood Compatibility 2. City Cul-de-sac Policy 3. Emergency Access 4. Street Widths 5. Social Interaction 6. Travel Distances 1. Neighborhood Compatibility Under some circumstances it is desirable to separate or isolate one neighborhood from another, usually when there are conflicting land uses. As an example, there is no great harm in allowing industrial traffic on commercial streets or vice versa, but sound transportation planning would never encourage commercial/industrial traffic on residential streets. In the case at hand, there is total compatibility between old and new residential neighborhoods. All traffic will be residential-generated. Without doubt, some traffic from "old" will utilize streets in "new", and vice versa. Those drivers will simply be taking advantage of the best reasonable route - a service they expect as taxpayers. The amount of such "induced" traffic is simply impossible to predict. However, there is no reason to think that traffic on any street will exceed the capacity of a local street (up to 5,000 vehicles daily). The highest "collector route" might reach 1200 vehicles daily. Some residents have expressed a fear that there will be regional "shortcut traffic" from completely outside Rancho del Ponderosa, Santa Fe Ridge, or Arroyo La Costa, looking for ways to bypass traffic signals on Rancho Santa Fe Road, Olivenhain Road, or El Camino Real. However, the street layouts in Rancho del Ponderosa, Santa Fe Ridge, and Arroyo La Costa have been deliberately designed to discourage that. There will be numerous sharp turns, stop signs, and parked cars. Would-be "short-cutters" would lose time rather than gain it. 2. City Cul-de-sac Policy To the best of its ability City staff has, over the years, applied a policy dealing with the length of street and number of homes that may be served by a single street entry, or a single cul-de-sac. There is sound reason for such a policy. As the number of homes served by a single entry increases, so does traffic generation and so does the risk of an incident requiring emergency access (to be discussed later). Arroyo La Costa Traffic Circulation Page 3 As for traffic generation, let us use Arroyo La Costa Phase I (in the southwest comer) as an example. This phase includes 117 homes. These homes will generate about 1200 daily one-way auto trips (in and out). With just the single access off of Calle Barcelona, virtually all 1200 of those vehicles would have to pass through the "entry throat", a 500 foot length of street south of Calle Barcelona. Logically there should be another option; in this case, the opportunity for some of that traffic to use El Bosque, Los Pinos, etc. to reach Olivenhain Road. This traffic is just what Rancho del Ponderosa residents object to. Yet, that is the very reason El Bosque was dead-ended (without cul-de-sac) originally. It is the same good transportation planning that Rancho del Ponderosa and Santa Fe Ridge residents enjoy with three access points into their area off of Olivenhain Road/Rancho Santa Fe Road, all interconnecting within their two subdivisions to provide excellent circulation. 3. Emergency Access As the size of a dead-end area increases, two risks associated with emergency access become important. First, the potential for an emergency to occur increases simply as a matter of exposure. The more homes, the more people, the more cars, the greater the potential for fire, accident, and serious injury or illness. In such an event, seconds may make the difference between life and death. Second, sound emergency planning dictates that every residential area have more than one street access into the area. There is always the possibility that a single entry point may be blocked by an accident, toxic spill, fire, or natural disaster. In such an event, not only would emergency equipment be denied access, but residents, too, would be unable to get to or leave their homes. Residents have suggested that the emergency problem be solved with "crash gates" that will allow only authorized emergency vehicles to pass. The term "crash gate" is a misnomer. Fire, police, or ambulance vehicles will not "crash" physical barriers because of the risk of injury and damage. As an alternative, one possibility is a gate which may be opened by key, radio, or magnetic card. However, these have not always been reliable due to malfunction or vandalism. Again, valuable life or death time may be lost. With the installation of any sort of physical barrier, one scenario can be positively predicted: If the barrier is built so that an emergency vehicle can get through, the public, seeking a reasonable travel route, will also force its way through either by vandalism, deliberate destruction, or willful trespassing. Not only would City emergency forces be confronted with unreasonable delay, they would take on a hopeless enforcement problem as well. Finally, there should be an awareness that an emergency does not always involve a "911" red light and siren response. Citizens often respond to "emergencies" by themselves. A phone call to a parent that a child has been injured at school is an "emergency". A call that a loved one has been hospitalized is an "emergency". A neighborhood brush fire requiring a "garden hose brigade" is an "emergency". When those events occur, an extra mile of travel requiring ten minutes is like an eternity. The difference may be tragic. Arroyo La Costa Traffic Circulation Page 4 4. Street Widths It has been argued that a portion of the "El Bosque Route", specifically Los Pinos Drive between El Bosque and La Macarena Drive is only 32 feet wide from curb to curb, as opposed to a recommended residential street width of 36 to 40 feet. However, such a width is not uncommon for a "single-loaded" street with homes and a small neighborhood park fronting on one side of the street only. The other side of the street faces only residential side yards. It has not been necessary to prohibit parking on that side but if it were done, the street is of adequate width and would probably be safer than other streets because of the shorter crossing distance and improved visibility. 5. Social Interaction Arroyo La Costa will have an Elementary School, a Junior High School and a Recreation/Child Care Center. Perhaps not initially, but surely in the future these facilities will serve residents in existing neighborhoods to the north and south. There is no single public function that creates more social interaction, and more need for efficient transportation than schools. Friendships and "dear neighbors" will evolve. Children will spend the night at homes of school chums, neighbors will babysit for each other, there will be school plays, open houses, graduation ceremonies, carnivals, teachers conferences, Little League and Youth Soccer games, Field Days, barbecues, Father-Son and Mother-Daughter parties, etc., etc; ~ the list is near endless. And virtually all the trips in connection therewith will be made in the family car. 6. Travel Distances If the El Bosque and Corte Carolina connections are not made, it is believed that Rancho del Ponderosa and Sante Fe Ridge residents will experience the greatest inconvenience in being denied access to Calle Barcelona. It serves as the sole access to the schools and recreation/day care center, as well as being the secondary arterial which distributes traffic to the regional highway network. The attached chart of distance comparisons shows the difference in travel distances and traffic controls between the "short way" and the "long way". Although this has been explained to Rancho del Ponderosa and Santa Fe Ridge residents, the position of those appearing before the Planning Commission varied from "Our children won't attend those schools", to "We will walk", to "We don't mind driving the extra miles". In my opinion, none of those attitudes are realistic. If indeed all those trips are made "the long way", it means an extra round-trip difference of 1.5 to 2 miles through two or three major signalized intersections. It will simply add more cars traveling more miles on an overloaded arterial system — the very thing we should try to prevent. Arroyo La Costa Traffic Circulation Page 5 CONCLUSION City Traffic Engineer Bob Johnson and I have both been urged by Rancho del Ponderosa and Santa Fe Ridge residents to change our position by recommending that the streets remain closed, or be provided with "crash gates". We cannot, in good professional conscience, do that. This is not a matter of emergency access, it is one of good transportation design and service. These street connections are needed and we would be performing a disservice to our citizens if we block them, in whole or in part.

The Final EIR was prepared by a different consulting firm which was retained by the City after the public review period for the Draft EIR was over. During the preparation of the Final EIR, portions of the Project Summary Matrix pages were not revised to accurately reflect the conclusions of the Environmental Analysis in the Final EIR. Portions of the matrix have been revised to reflect the conclusions of the Final EIR. Revised pages are labeled "revised". All corrections to the matrix are under the "level of significance" column except for page xix where the scope of impact for the loss of habitat was mistakenly identified as cumulative as well as project specific. There have been no changes to the Environmental Analysis in the Final EIR or to the conclusions of that analysis. The only changes on the attached pages pertain to items where the summary did not accurately reflect the Final EIR document. No other changes to the matrix have been made. Executive Summary Page xiii has been revised to correct a typographic error in the number of units that could be built under the Master Plan Alternative. Page 254 of the Final EIR has been revised to correct a typographical error in the second paragraph changing "elementary" to "secondary". Environmental Summary Pages 342 through 344 have been revised to reflect the conclusions in the Environmental Analysis section of the Final EIR. Prior to this correction, potential impacts that can mitigated were incorrectly included in the section that discusses impacts that cannot be mitigated. All corrected pages follow. No changes to the Environmental Analysis in the Final EIR have been made. The only changes are to the summary pages that are attached and typographical corrections discussed above. In addition, three comment letters from the public were not responded to in the Response to Comments. Responses to those three letters are attached.

The initial study shows that there is no substantial evidence that the project may have a significant impact on the environment provided that mitigating conditions of approval are 21 complied with. P?*" 2. The proposed project only deletes references to the area known as La Costa Southwest, however this does not change the present or planned land uses of the remaining land area. The proposed amendment will allow for more in-depth analysis to occur on specific 24 area within the overall Master Plan area. A mitigation measure has been included in this document to ensure that when these areas are developed they comply with current City 25 policies and standards. This mitigation measure requires that a Master Plan and environmental documentation will be approved prior to the approval of any devleopment 26 permits in the Northwest or Southeast areas of the La Costa Master Plan. 27 28 1 3. The proposal will not affect any transportation systems in the vicinity. The proposal will 2 not generate additional systems in the vicinity. The proposal will not generate additional vehicular trips over that allowable under the Local Facilities Management Plan Zones. 3 Traffic impact analysis will be conducted at an appropriate time in the future. Since the proposal is a change in the text and map boundaries, it will not affect parking facilities, transportation systems or create traffic hazards to vehicles, bicyclists or pedestrians. 4. The proposal will not affect the public utilities, schools, police, fire, emergency or other public services. The site is located in Zones 6, 10, 11 and 12.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS STATE CEQA GUIDELINES, Chapter 3, Article 5, section 15063 requires that the 'ity conduct an Environmental Impact Assessment to determine if a project may have a significant effect on the environment. The Environmental Impact Assessment appears in the following pages in the form of a checklist. This checklist identifies any physical, biological and human factors that might be impacted by the proposed project and provides the City with information to use as the basis for deciding whether to prepare an Environmental Impact Report or Negative Declaration. * A Negative Declaration may be prepared if the City perceives no substantial evidence that the project or any of its aspects may cause a significant effect on the environment. On the checklist, "NO" will be checked to indicate this determination. * An EIR must be prepared if the City determines that there is substantial evidence that any aspect of the project may cause a significant effect on the environment. The project may qualify for a Negative Declaration however, if adverse impacts are mitigated so that environmental effects can be deemed insignificant. These findings are shown in the checklist under the headings "YES-sig" and "YES-insig" respectively. A discussion of potential impacts and the proposed mitigation measures appears at the end of the form under DISCUSSION OF ENVIRONMENTAL EVALUATION. Particular attention should be given to discussing mitigation for impacts which would otherwise be determined significant.

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.) X_ 35. Does the project have the possible environmental effects which are in- dividually limited but cumulatively considerable?

X_ 36. Does the project have environmental effects which will cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly? X_ -5- DISCUSSION OF ENVIRONMENTAL EVALUATION The proposal is to amend the La Costa Master Plan (LCMP) by eliminating all aferences to the southwest portion of the Master Plan. This proposal will remove all text regarding the southwest section and change the boundaries of the overall Master Plan accordingly. The southwest section will be referred to as Arroyo La Costa. This area will be closely analyzed under a separate Master Plan and associated Environmental Impact Report. The remainder of the LCMP will be analyzed in further detail at some future date, under a separate Master Plan and Environmental Impact Report. Due to the nature of the proposal and its affect upon the area, the proposal will not significantly affect the environment. PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT Earth - The proposal is a change in the text and map boundaries of the La Costa Master Plan. Geotechnical feasibility evaluation will be conducted at a future date. An in depth analysis will occur under a separate Master Plan and associated Environmental Impact Report (EIR) at the appropriate time. The proposal will have no impact to earth stability, topography erosion, deposition or natural resources. Air - The proposal will not create objectional odors or produce emissions that will affect the ambient air quality. The proposal is a change in text and map boundaries, therefore, it will not affect the air quality. Water - The proposed text change and map revisions will not authorize any development that could affect the quality or the demand for water. These issues will be addressed at a future date when detailed development proposals are analyzed. Natural Resources - The proposal will not affect on any natural resources. Previous studies have indicated that there are no natural resources in the vicinity. BIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENT Plant and Animal Life - Since the proposal is a change in text and map boundaries, it will not alter or affect any biological resources. At the appropriate time an EIR will be prepared which will specifically address agriculture, plants, microflora and any animals (birds, land animals, water animals and insects). Agriculture - The proposal will not affect any agriculturally designated land. -6- DISCUSSION OF ENVIRONMENTAL EVALUATION HUMAN ENVIRONMENT Use - The change in text and map boundaries will not change the present or planned land uses of the area. It will, however, allow for more in depth analysis to occur on specific areas within the overall Master Plan area. A mitigation measure has been included in this document to ensure that when these areas are developed they comply with current City policies and standards. This mitigation measure requires that a Master Plan and environmental documentation wiil be approved prior to the approval of any development permits in the Northwest or Southeast areas of the La Costa Mater Plan. Utilities - The proposal will not affect the public utilities, schools, police, fire, emergency or other public services. The site is located in Zones 6, 10, 11 and 12. Services will be provided through the implementation of the zone plans. Noise - An acoustical analysis will be prepared at a future date to ensure that any projects conform to the current standards at the time of development. The current proposal has no affect on the site at this time. Human Health - The proposal will not involve the use of explosive or hazardous materials. Light and Glare - The proposal will have no affect on the amount of light and glare in the vicinity. This issue will be addressed at a future date with the appropriate EIR. Housing - The proposal will not alter the density of human population or affect housing demand more than that which has been approved under the overall La Costa Master Plan. Transportation/Circulation - The proposal will not affect any transportation systems in the vicinity. The proposal will not generate additional vehicular trips over that allowable under the Local Facilities Management Plan zones. Traffic impact analysis will be conducted at an appropriate time in the future. Since the proposal is a change in the text and map boundaries, it will not affect parking facilities, transportation systems or create traffic hazards to vehicles, bicyclists or pedestrians. Fuel and Energy - Since the proposal is a change in text and map boundaries only, it has no affect on fuel and energy consumption. Archeoloaical/Historical/Paleontological - The proposal will not affect any archeological, historical or paleontological sites. Since the proposal will only affect the text and map boundaries, the above issues will be addressed at the appropriate time in the future. Aesthetics/Recreation - The proposal will not affect the site aesthetically or affect the quality or quantity of recreational opportunities. These issues will be addressed at a future date. -7- ANALYSIS OF VIABLE ALTERNATIVES TO THE PROPOSED PROJECT SUCH AS: a) Phased development of the project, b) alternate site designs, c) alternative scale of development, d) alternate uses for the site, e) development at some future time rather than now, f) alternate sites for the proposed, and g) no project alternative. a) This project is the first phase of an overall review and revision of the La Costa Master Plan. The northwest and southeast portion of the Master Plan will be reviewed at some future date. b) This project is a revision to the approved La Costa Master Plan to eliminate any reference to the southwest portion of the overall Master Plan. Site design is not a part of this project. Alternate site designs will be addressed at a future date under a new Master Plan and environmental studies. c) The scale of the project has been determined by the original Master Plan. The La Costa Master Plan was divided into three sections: Northwest, southeast and southwest. The project will allow for a more detailed analysis of the southwest section. d) This project does not address the uses of the site. It merely allow for the elimination of all references to the southwest from the overall Master Plan. Alternate uses for the site will be addressed at a future date under a new Master Plan and environmental studies. e) The proposed Master Plan Amendment does not authorize any development. It merely deletes any reference tothe southwest portion of the La Costa Master Plan. f) The site of the project has been determined by the La Costa Master Plan. The project will not change the boundaries of the southwest section but will remove any reference to the southwest from the overall Master Plan. g) The no project alternative would leave the existing La Costa Master Plan in existence for all areas of La Costa. The existing La Costa Master Plan does not comply with current City ordinances and policies. The deletion of the southwest area from the La Costa Master Plan is the first step in bringing this Master Plan into conformance with current ordinances and standards. -9- DETERMINATION (To Be Completed By The Planning Department) On the basis of this initial evaluation: _ _ i find the proposed project COULD NOT have a significant effect on the environment, and a NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared. X I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, there will not be a significant effect in this case because the mitigation measures described on an attached sheet have been added to the project. A Conditional Negative Declaration will be proposed. .1 find the proposed project MAY have a significant effect on the environment, and an ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required.

II.PROJECT BACKGROUND AND DESCRIPTION The applicant is requesting a number of discretionary approvals for a 529 acre Master Plan community located between El Camino Real, Olivenhain Road, and Rancho Santa Fe Road. This area is currently a part of the La Costa Master Plan (MP-149(G)) and is known as La Costa Southwest. Through the proposed actions, the applicant is requesting approval to withdraw from the La Costa Master Plan and form a new Master Plan, known as Arroyo La Costa (MP 88-1). In addition, the applicant is also proposing a Tentative Map/Planned Unit Development Permit to allow the construction of 1,076 single family dwellings and accompanying recreational facilities. To accomplish these actions, the applicant is requesting the following discretionary approvals: A. B. BC.

Due to the complex nature of the proposed project, all discretionary actions and related planning issues are discussed individually below and may be found on the following pages: EIR 86-2 24f MPA 149(0) 4| MP 88-1 S| GPA/LU 88-1 7J ZC 88-3 CT 88-3/PUD 88-4/HDP 88-8 SDP 89-18 SUP 89-3 2l|| SUP 90-8 22|j Growth Management 22!1 ROI 181 241 Project Background The La Costa Master Plan covers approximately 5,282 acres, divided into four areas as follows: The Developed Area 2888 acres The Northwest Area 744 acres The Southeast Area 1121 acres The Southwest Area 529 acres See Exhibit X-l, pg. 27, for the location of each of these areas. ARROYO LA COSTA JUNE 6, 1990 PAGE 3 Because the overall La Costa Master plan is 17 years old, the document does not adequately address current environmental concerns nor does it comply with City standards and policies. To correct these inconsistencies, in 1985 the City Council directed staff to work with the owner of the undeveloped portions of La Costa to revise and update the La Costa Master Plan. Because the owners of the undeveloped portions of La Costa are not yet ready to develop all of their properties, staff and the developer have agreed to first address the Southwest area of the Master Plan (now called the Arroyo La Costa Master Plan). To simplify matters, the overall La Costa Master Plan is being amended concurrently with the preparation of the Arroyo La Costa Master Plan and will eliminate all references to the Southwest. The overall La Costa Master Plan will remain in effect for the Developed, Northwest and Southeast areas. The only La Costa Master Plan areas which will not be impacted by this revision are areas not owned by the applicant within the Southeast and Northwest portions of the Master Plan. These areas that have either approved projects or projects that are pending have been considered exempt. All other vacant property has been conditioned to comply with the Master Plan requirements. It is anticipated that the Southeast portion of the La Costa Master Plan will be the next area considered for development. When that occurs, a separate Master Plan will be prepared and all references to that area will be removed from the overall La Costa Master Plan. Although the Ranchero Estates area was originally included in the "Developed Area" of the overall La Costa Master Plan, it was subsequently included in the Zone 11 Local Facilities Management Plan and therefore will be incorporated into the Southeast Master Plan. Similar procedures would take place when the Northwest area is developed. This would have the end result of eliminating the overall La Costa Master Plan and replacing it with three detailed, up-to-date Master Plans. The Master Plan includes the area which was previously approved by Tentative Map CT 85-6 and Planned Development Permit PUD 80 for 789 dwelling units. This project was a mix of multi- family units and small single family lots. Approval of this project will be revoked and superseded by the new Tentative Map and Planned Development Permit. Approval of the proposed Master Plan and related Tentative Map and Planned Development Permit will include a condition that the previously approved Tentative Map and Planned Development Permit shall be superseded and therefore revoked. Project Description The 529 acre Arroyo La Costa site consists of primarily undeveloped land between El Camino Real and Rancho Santa Fe Road. Agricultural and urban land uses characterize much of the surrounding landscape; however, a particularly important natural area, the Green Valley and Encinitas riparian systems remain adjacent to the site on the west side of El Camino Real. Elevations are relatively low and relief is minor on the site. The lowest point is along the western property line at about 64 feet above mean sea level, and the highest point is in the east-central area at 273 feet. Small, steep slopes occur on sandstone soils in the western portions and in several of the small ravines. Approximately 60% of the site is covered in grasslands. Small ARROYO LA COSTA JUNE 6, 1990 PAGE 4 Eucalyptus and Oak woodlands are located in the northern portions of the site. A third woodland feature is the riparian zone in the central valley. The site contains several drainage areas which are tributary to Green Valley, some of which contain enough moisture to support riparian vegetation. The Master Plan consists of 16 residential Villages, 9 Open Space Planning areas, 2 school sites, and a church site. When built out, the Arroyo La Costa Master Plan will consist of a maximum 1,076 single family homes. These residences will be located on lots that range from 5,000 to over 23,000 square feet in size with the majority of the lots over 7,500 square feet in size. The minimum size of the flat, usable portion of each lot will be 5,000, 6,000 or 7,000 square feet depending upon the village in which each lot is located. Features of the Arroyo La Costa Master Plan include a pedestrian/bike trail which will be used to provide access from the various neighborhoods to a centrally located common recreation/day care facility. Passive recreational lots will be located in most of the villages to provide open space as well as access to the trail system. A pedestrian/bike bridge will span Calle Barcelona from a common recreation/day care center to the nearby junior high school. The trail system has been designed to provide links to other portions of Carlsbad as well as provide bicycle and pedestrian circulation within the Master Plan area. The Master Plan has been designed to preserve the onsite environmental resources which include the riparian habitat and the oak grove. A portion of the pedestrian/bicycle trail system will be constructed along each side of the enhanced riparian corridor. The oak grove will be incorporated into the design of the adjacent village as a natural, passive recreation area. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT Certification of an Environmental Impact Report is being requested. The Environmental Impact Report addresses the environmental impacts associated with the Master Plan and the related applications. In response to the draft EIR, the Arroyo La Costa Master Plan conceptual land use plan has gone through substantial revision. In addition a Local Facilities Management Plan, (Zone 12) which covers required public facilities for this property has been prepared. Environmental review has been completed pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act and mitigation measures identified in this EIR and the Zone 12 Plan have been incorporated into the provisions of the Master Plan. The EIR Project Summary identifies project impacts as well as appropriate mitigation measures. It also assesses impacts after the application of the mitigation measures. These measures have reduced the impacts to a level of insignificance in all cases except for Air Quality Noise and Aesthetics. These issues are discussed below: Air Quality Neise The EIR identifies short term construction pjsj impacts d|gi^!;i;p»$^eti^i as not being ARROYO LA COSTA JUNE 6, 1990 PAGE 5 mitigated to a level of insignificance. Staff disagrees with this position because application of standard measures to control fugitive dust and emissions Boise &nd regulate WorJk hours during construction will, as in all other projects in the City, reduce this type of impact to a level of insignificance. Aesthetics The EIR states that the project will change the visual nature of the area from open space to urban uses which will result in significant adverse impacts. Staff disagrees with this position. Since annexation into the City, the area has been designated for residential land uses on the General Plan and Zoning Map. Because the site is surrounded by existing development, leaving the site as open space is not a feasible solution nor is it consistent with the projected urbanization of the area. It is staffs position that the proposed residential development is consistent with the planned land uses and that the project will not create significant adverse impacts, with respect to aesthetics. In conclusion, based on the environmental analysis contained in EIR 86-2 plus staffs position on the issues of air quality |||||| and aesthetics, staff is recommending that the Planning Commission find that all identified project related impacts can be reduced to a level of insignificance by the application of mitigation measures and conditions contained in the EIR and the amended Zone 12 plan. Therefore, project approval would not require the decision makers to make findings of overiding consideration. MASTER PLAN AMENDMENT - (MP 149(O) Planning: Issues 1. Is the proposed amendment consistent with the goals of the La Costa Master Plan? 2. How will the proposed amendment impact development within the La Costa Master Plan Area? Discussion The proposed amendment to the La Costa Master Plan addresses two major revisions as follows: 1. Elimination of any reference to the area previously known as Southwest (Arroyo La Costa). 2. Stipulation that updated Environmental Impact Reports and new Master Plans be required prior to future development occurring in the Northwest and Southeast Areas of La Costa. The proposed Master Plan Amendment is consistent with the goals of the La Costa Master Plan because it maintains residential land uses and ensures the provision of a variety of housing types ARROYO LA COSTA JUNE 6, 1990 PAGE 6 within the overall Master Plan area. In the overall Master Plan, the Southwest Area was intended solely for residential development. The proposed amendment will allow for residential development that is more compatible with surrounding single family homes. No non-residential land uses such as commercial, office, nor industrial uses are proposed except for residential support facilities such as schools, recreation/daycare center and a church. The proposed amendment will impact development by providing a mechanism for creating up- to-date master plans for the La Costa area. The existing La Costa Master Plan is out-of-date and does not address many of the present ordinances and policies. For example, all development is currently required to process a La Costa Development Plan. Parking standards are less restrictive and not consistent with the present ordinance, and other ordinances relating to Planned Development, Growth Management and Hillsides are not addressed. The proposed Arroyo La Costa Master Plan will correct this situation for the Southwest Area by addressing all current ordinances and policies. Since it is presently not known what land uses, their locations or their eavfcojHmHjal impact* will be tmtSJ new taasjsr pIan* are pc$0$e4 & Mdpted Mgattve declaration was prepared for this amendment. As—disnmed previously under "Project Background", (page 3), The mitigation would rebuke updated EIRs and new Master Plans will be required prior to review of future development in the Northwest or Southeast Areas of La Costa. Each of these Master Plans will also be required to comply with all ordinances and policies in effect at the time of approval. As discussed in the overall La Costa Master Plan, there are several properties in these areas that have either been approved or are currently under review. These projects have been considered exempt from the new Master Plan/EIR requirement but must comply with all current ordinances and policies. As stated earlier, all other vacant properties have been conditioned to comply with the Master Plan requirement. After the approval of the last Master Plan the "Developed Area" (LFMP Zone 6) of La Costa will no longer be covered by a Master Plan (See page 3, paragraph 3). However, as indicated in the Citywide Plan, Zone 6 is considered an infill area. Similar to other infill areas of the City, individual properties are still subject to a number of discretionary reviews including: tentative tract maps, planned development ordinance, hillside, site development plan, and grading and building plan check. These review mechanisms will ensure that all the developable areas of La Costa will be reviewed in accordance with current requirements. MASTER PLAN fMP 88-1) Planning Issues 1. Does the Master Plan properly implement the General Plan, Zoning and appropriate policies governing the site? 2. Are the general development plan and the standards provided in the Master Plan adequate to properly develop the property? Discussion ARROYO LA COSTA JUNE 6, 1990 PAGE 7 Upon approval, the Master Plan will become the controlling document for the Southwest Area. (Exhibit X-4, page 30). It implements the General Plan, Planned Community (PC) zone, by establishing land uses and maximum development intensities based on a detailed analysis of the opportunities and constraints of the site. As required by the General Plan, consideration was first given to potential school sites, existing riparian areas, and the alignment of Circulation Element roadways (eg. Calle Barcelona). The proposed locations for these uses are consistent with the School Location Plan, the Open Space Element, and the Circulation Element. As discussed in the "General Plan Amendment" section, the proposed Master Plan also ensures the provision of multi- family and affordable housing thereby complying with the Housing Element. Mitigation measures incorporated into the project also ensure adherence with appropriate ordinances and policies such as the Hillside Ordinance and the Noise Policy. The location and phasing of all required public facilities is discussed in the Zone 12 Plan and demonstrate compliance with the Growth Management Ordinance. The Arroyo La Costa Master Plan Area is divided into separate planning areas and three phases as shown on Exhibit X-5, page 31. The land use summary for the property is shown on Exhibit X-9, page 35. Approximately 135.8 acres (26 percent) of the Master Plan Area is composed of open space. Otherwise, individual single family neighborhood developments are proposed throughout the remainder of the property. Each village or planning area is designed to be compatible with surrounding development and product types. In addition to sites for a church, elementary school, and junior high school, the Master Plan also provides for several features that have not been incorporated in previous Master Plans in the City, including: 1. A large, community recreation area rather than individual recreation areas for each village; 2. An extensive bicycle and pedestrian trail system including a pedestrian bridge across Calle Barcelona; and 3. A large daycare center incorporated into the community recreation site. The common recreation/daycare center will be tied to the rest of the Master Plan by an extensive trail system. This trail system will include the first pedestrian bridge in the City. The bridge will span Calle Barcelona and link the common recreation/daycare center with the junior high school site. This trail system has been designed so that it could be connected to a future citywide trail system. The applicant has provided plans showing how pedestrian bridges could be constructed at some future date across Rancho Santa Fe Road and El Camino Real to link this trail system with other parts of the City. These trails were designed in accordance with the recommendations of the City's Open Space Committee. The details of the trail system are provided in the Open Space chapter of the Master Plan. During review of the Master Plan the applicant proposed the formation of a maintenance district for the maintenance of the trail system and pedestrian bridge. The applicant believes that a maintenance district is necessary for the establishment of a trail system that links the various neighborhoods of Carlsbad. It is the applicant's position that it would be difficult for a homeowners' association to maintain a trail system that was open to persons not residing within the project. ARROYO LA COSTA JUNE 6, 1990 PAGE 8 The applicants have indicated that if a citywide maintenance district is not formed they would prefer to redesign the trail system to serve only the residents of the project. At this time, however, the applicant (through a proposed Master Homeowners Association (MHOA)) has been required to provide maintenance in perpetuity for the trail system. If a citywide maintenance district is formed in the future, the MHOA will have the option of joining. Details of the common recreation/daycare center will be discussed in the portion of this report that addresses the Site Development Plan which is being processed concurrently with the Master Plan. In addition to the comprehensive development plan, the Master Plan provides the development standards to adequately develop the property. Normally, a Master Plan is implemented through subsequent tentative maps or Planned Development Permits; however, because a Tentative Map and Planned Development Permit are being processed concurrently with the Master Plan a greater level of detail has been provided than would ordinarily be submitted with a Master Plan. With these mechanisms the applicant has provided architectural details and individual site designs for every unit proposed in the Master Plan. In conclusion, staff believes that the Master Plan implements the General Plan, zoning and all appropriate policies governing the site. The Master Plan also provides a detailed set of development standards and ensures that an adequate mixture of single family, multiple family and affordable housing will be provided in the La Costa area. GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT - fGPA/LU 88-11 Planning Issues 1. Is the proposed amendment consistent with the maximum number of dwelling units allowed under the existing General Plan? 2. Will the proposed change in General Plan/Land Use designations from RMH to RM and RLM adversely impact the mix of housing types in the City? 3. Does the proposed amendment protect the environmental resources of the site? 4. Is the proposed change in Open Space boundaries consistent with the City's Interim Open Space Ordinance? ARROYO LA COSTA JUNE 6, 1990 PAGE9 Discussion Exhibit X-2, page 28, illustrates the existing and proposed General Plan land use designations for the subject property. The proposed amendment will: 1. 2. 3. 4. Eliminate four pockets of RMH, Residential Medium High Density (8-15 du/ac). Total of 25.0 acres. Increase the amount of RLM, Residential Low Medium (0-4 du/ac) and RM Residential Medium (4-8) du/ac) within the master plan area. Total of 327.23 acres. Establish the exact locations of two previously floating school locations. Redefine the boundaries of Open Space within the Master Plan area.

The project is proposing 1,076 dwelling units. Land Use Impacts During review of the proposed project it was determined that the subject site was more appropriate for single family development based on the fact that the Southwest is actually an infill area and is surrounded on three sides by single family homes. Staff also examined other areas ARROYO LA COSTA JUNE 6, 1990 PAGE 10 of the La Costa Master Plan to determine suitability for multi-family and affordable housing. It was decided that both the Northwest and Southeast areas were more appropriate for the following reasons: 1. The Northwest allows closer accessibility to a major employment center; o _ * pr 3|. Both areas are located closer to designated commercial sites; and 4|. Both the Southeast and Northwest will be closer to full service Community Parks (Stagecoach, Alga Norte). The City of Carlsbad's Housing Element Is under review, J^e&Hinary number* from SANE>A<J veil pla<* a fctemdal obligation on C&efcbad to aieer the »e<afe of its <&&«*»$ fax low mad moderns! income housing. Almost certainly new programs will be retailed to demonstrate a good faith effort to meet this need. Developers of new commtinities like Arroyo La Costa must provide for all ecortosiie ssgrneats of &e ^tamnait? and share & the i^oftsibilty foj #>Jttteg this problem* Therefore, prior to final map approval for any portion of the Master Plan area, the applicant shall enter into an agreement mth the Citjr to provide the Master Plait's proportional share of the City/is total obligation for low and moderate income housing units or to implement whatever programs ate adopted by the City Council as part of the Housing Element review should that review be completed prior to final map approval, To guarantee the required variety of housing types, the project has been conditioned to prepare separate master plans for Northwest and Southeast La Costa. Each of these master plans will be required to provide multi-family and affordable housing as defined bv the Citv. Prior to recordation of the Southwest final mspi this will be detailed in o HT-TQiisirijT Element Agreement11 between the developer smd the City stnd to ensure compliance this agreement will be recorded as a lien on the developer's Southeast Master Plan property. Future changes in land use designations to provide multi or affordable housing within the Northwest or Southeast will not result in an increased gross density in these areas, unless approved by the City Council. Such an increased density would be possible if the City Council determined that affordable housing was in the best interests of the City and if the dwelling unit cap for the Southeast Quadrant were not exceeded. The following example is included for illustrative purposes only. Hypothetically, the proposed Housing Element Agreement determines that 200 units of multi-family/affordable housing are required by the Southwest but must be built in the Southeast. These 200 units could not be added to the Southeast (Zone 11) buildout number. Instead they would have to be subtracted from the Southeast buildout number after the requirement for multi-family/affordable housing is met within that Zone HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE 1000 - Buildout dus for the Southeast -200 - Multi/Affordable housing dus required for Southeast -200 - Multi/Affordable housing dus required for Southwest 600 - Remaining dus available in Southeast. ARROYO LA COSTA JUNE 6, 1990 PAGE 11 Basically, in both the Northwest and Southeast, provisions for multi-family/affordable housing must be determined first. Then other housing types may be considered. This will most likely result in clustered housing surrounded by large, open space bands again, unless the City Council allowed an increased density to provide affordable housing. Staff has determined that this method meets with the requirements of the Housing Element and allows for more compatible development in the Southwest, Southeast and Northwest areas. The proposed General Plan Amendment will also establish the location of two schools which include a junior high school and an elementary school. These were previously shown as floating sites on the General Plan because, although the school districts knew they needed schools in the general area, they did not know when or where the schools would be needed. During review of the Master Plan, school locations were established based on input from representatives of both the San Dieguito and Encinitas Elementary School Districts. San Dieguito preferred to locate the junior high school site south of Calle Barcelona because the site could be graded into a level 20+ acre pad that was adjacent to Calle Barcelona and away from the riparian habitat area. Encinitas preferred an area in the westerly portion of the site because it was farthest away from existing school sites at Levante Street and Calle Barcelona/Rancho Santa Fe Road. They also wanted to be separated from the junior high school. Environmental Resources The existing General Plan designations do not accurately reflect existing topography or constraints of this site. Areas shown as open space on the General Plan do not protect the most environmentally sensitive portions of the site, such as the large riparian habitat in the west- central portion of the site. It appears that these boundaries were drawn with little or no field work. The revised open space boundaries are based on extensive field work and detailed biological surveys of the site. The proposed open space areas will protect and enhance the existing riparian habitat onsite. This area will serve as a natural open space corridor running through the project. All of the area west of and within the S.D.G. & E. easement along the westerly edge of the site will be left in its natural state except for trails and the enhancement of several eroded areas. As well as preserving several endangered plant species it will serve as a buffer between El Camino Real and future residences. Open Space/Interim Ordinance In December of 1989, the City of Carlsbad adopted an interim ordinance establishing temporary land use controls to protect open space. The interim ordinance requires that developments proposing to modify the open space boundaries as shown on the General Plan make four findings. The proposed project is requesting a modification to the open space boundaries and therefore is subject to this interim ordinance. The required findings are: 1. The open space area is of equal or greater area; and 2. The open space area is of equal or greater environmental quality; and 3. The boundary modification is made in order to provide an enhancement to an ARROYO LA COSTA JUNE 6, 1990 PAGE 12 environmentally sensitive area; and 4. The adjusted open space is contiguous or within close proximity to the open space shown on the map. In addition, the project must not preclude linkage to other designated open space areas. 1. The proposed change in open space boundaries is illustrated on Figures 1 and 2, pages 13 and 14. As can be seen on Figure 1, Existing Open Space, the total area encompasses 94.6 acres. The total area of proposed Open Space shown on Figure 2 includes 135.8 total acres. The proposed plan will thus provide 41.2 additional acres of open space above that called for, thereby satisfying the first of the four required findings referred to earlier. 2. The open space areas shown on Figure 1 were established in the mid-1970's, and although they may have been based to a degree on the environmental resources of the area, their primary purpose was to accommodate "a string of parks". Key environmental resources, such as die large riparian area in the west-central part of the property (OS-5 on Exhibit 2) were not shown on the vegetative maps accompanying the original La Costa Master Plan, and there is no indication that this or other environmentally sensitive areas were used as major determinants in the overall planning process for this part of La Costa. As a result, much of the open space shown in Figure 1 may have been useful as linkages or parkland under the concept of small community parks. However, as explained later in this section, the environmental quality of most of the open space areas shown in Figure 1 is generally marginal to low. The proposed open space boundary change will protect the large central riparian habitat and form the major element of a continuous corridor Unking this area with Canada Canyon (previously allowed for development). In addition the proposed change will preserve the existing vegetation under the SDG&E easement and also expand the area to the north, south, and east to provide a continual link along El Camino Real. Subsequently, a number of sensitive plant species will be preserved. The other major areas of disagreement between Figures 1 and 2 involve three long fingers of open space shown in Figure 1 and not shown in Figure 2. One runs from just below OS-4 (Figure 2) to the west, encompasses the oak woodland mentioned above, and terminates at the SDG&E easement just east of El Camino Real. This open space finger crosses grassland for its entire length, and except for the oak woodland, no sensitive plant species occur within the designated open space area. Elimination of the open space designation for this area in favor of the addition of areas described earlier would therefore be considered environmentally beneficial. The second area of disagreement between Figure 1 and Figure 2 involves the long east- west greenbelt running through the center of the property. The original purpose of this greenbelt was to provide a pedestrian, bicycle and possibly an equestrian trail Unking small parks within the project area together and providing access to an elementary school site.

O.S.) •Note: Arroyo La Costa numbers do not include Rancho del Ponderosa Acreage Proposed "Comprehensive Open Space Network Map" ARROYO LA COSTA- 14 - ARROYO LA COSTA JUNE 6, 1990 PAGE 15 With regard to the habitat value and environmental quality of this existing greenbelt, a comparison of the two areas indicate that the existing green belt would save only a small part of the exisitng riparian area near Rancho Santa Fe Road (OS-3 in Figure 2), and would cross grassland, chaparral and coastal sage scrub habitat. A small portion of two sensitive plant species would be saved. The proposed open space boundary changes will produce a higher quality of environmental resources and wildlife habitat than would be possible if the area were developed using the existing open space designations shown on the City's Comprehensive Open Space Network Map. The proposed plan therefore meets the second requirement of the Interim Open Space Ordinance (i.e., that the new area be of "equal or greater quality"). 3. The third finding of the interim policy is satisfied by the proposed linkage of two natural open space areas (OS-4 and OS-5) via an enhanced and revegetated riparian corridor and wildlife habitat. By retaining OS-3, 4, 6, 7, and 8, sensitive plant species and other habitat were preserved. 4. With regard to proximity, major portions of the east-west greenbelt and trail system shown in Figure 1 are completely consistent with the linkages shown in Figure 2 (near the eastern end and in the large riparian area). Furthermore, the linkage and trail opportunities that were being sought when this greenbelt was originally proposed in 1975 will still exist, although some portions of the primary trail will be moved southerly into the landscaped buffer areas adjacent to Calle Barcelona. A continuous linkage from east to west through the center of the project area will thus still remain under the proposed open space plan. In addition, because the City's stance on small, neighborhood parks versus larger community parks has changed since 1975, much of the justification for creating the greenbelts shown in Figure 1 no longer exist. Given this, and the fact that much of the open space proposed in Figure 2 closely corresponds, or is in reasonably close proximity to that shown in Figure 1, leads to the conclusion that the intent of Item 4 of the City's Interim Open Space Ordinance is being fully met by the proposed plans. 5. The proposed project includes provisions for trails, thus the requirements of Section 2 of the City's Interim Open Space Ordinance can readily be met. This Section of the Ordinance is designed to prevent or defer action on any developments which "would preclude linkage of the larger open space areas shown on the "comprehensive Open Space Network Map". As can be seen by comparing Figures 1 and 2, the open space and trail system proposed for Arroyo La Costa is in full conformance with this requirement. Provision has been made for a primary trail system through the center of the project which could be linked to properties both east and west of the boundaries of Arroyo La Costa. Additionally, if desired, this trail system can also be made to interface with the pedestrian crossing at El ARROYO LA COSTA JUNE 6, 1990 PAGE 16 Camino Real shown in the City's map. In addition to this primary east-west trail system, a series of secondary trails are also shown in Figure 2. Therefore, as can be seen from the foregoing discussions, the proposed open space and trail system for Arroyo La Costa is in full conformance not only with Section 1, Items 1 through 4 of the City's Interim Open Space Ordinance, but also with Section 2 regarding the linkage of large open space areas within the City. ZONE CHANGE (ZC 88-3) Planning Issues 1. Is the proposed zone change in conformance with the site's General Plan designation? 2. Would the uses allowed by the proposed Zone Change be compatible with the surrounding land uses? Discussion The proposed Zone Change will change the zoning from R-l to PC (Planned Community) on an 8.42 acre parcel, shown on Exhibit X-3, page 29. This area was created as a remainder parcel when the subdivision to the north was created in the 1970's. The proposed zone change area will be incorporated into and regulated by the Arroyo La Costa Master Plan. Both the proposed GPA and the proposed Arroyo La Costa Master Plan designate this finger of land as Open Space (OS). Because the site is surrounded on three sides by existing single-family homes it can only be accessed from the south through the Master Plan area. In response to neighborhood concern, the Master Plan proposes to leave the area (small mesa and arroyo) in its natural state. One of the trail systems within the Master Plan will terminate in a viewpoint at the proposed open space. The open space use has been determined to be the most compatible with existing and future development and the most appropriate for the site. TENTATIVE TRACT MAP/PLANNED DEVW)PMF.NT/HTT.I.SIDE DEVELOPMENT PERMIT - CT 88-3/PUD 88-4/HDP 88-8 Planning Issues 1. Does the proposed tentative subdivision map satisfy all requirements of the Subdivision Ordinance and the State Map Act? 2. Does the proposed project comply with the Master Plan? ARROYO LA COSTA JUNE 6, 1990 PAGE 17 3. Does the proposed residential development meet the standards of the Planned Development Ordinance? 4. Does the proposed tentative map comply with the requirements for the City's Hillside Development Ordinance (Chapter 21.90 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code)? Discussion Tentative Map As mentioned earlier, the applicant is requesting approval of a 1,076 unit Tentative Tract Map, Planned Unit Development and Hillside Development Permit for all of the undeveloped area within the Arroyo La Costa Master Plan. As explained in the introduction, this tentative map includes the area that was covered by the previously approved tentative map CT 85-6/PUD 80. The proposed tentative map conforms with all requirements of the Carlsbad Zoning Ordinance, Subdivision Ordinance, and State Map Act. All lots will front on publicly dedicated streets and meet minimum lot width and depth requirements. All lots will range in size from 5,000 feet to over 23,000 square feet in size with the majority of the lots over 7,500 square feet in size. Primary access to the project will be from the construction of Calle Barcelona, a secondary arterial identified in the Circulation Element. This 64' wide roadway within an 84' right-of-way will also have an additional 15' easement on both sides for additional bicycle lanes and meandering sidewalks. During the EIR process, the applicant redesigned the Tentative Map and alignment of Calle Barcelona in response to citizen input by the residents of Santa Fe Ridge. Some residents claimed that although a portion of the street was already built when they bought their homes that Calle Barcelona was designated as a local street and not a collector. In response, the applicant redesigned the alignment farther to the north, away from existing residences. Internal traffic circulation is provided by standard local streets having pavement widths of 48', 40' and 36'. Pedestrian circulation will be accommodated by standard contiguous sidewalks as well as a pedestrian bridge over Calle Barcelona, which has been provided for safe access to the junior high school site. This bridge is being provided for public safety, although the City recognizes that there is no guarantee all pedestrians will utilize the bridge. Connection to existing developments, via local streets, will be made at El Bosque Avenue, Corte Carolina, Segovia Way and Palenque Street. These connectors are being required to improve circulation for the surrounding area, to provide emergency vehicle access and to meet the City's secondary access policy. This development will also improve El Camino Real from Levante Street to Olivenhain Road to three, full, north bound lanes and a full raised and landscaped median. Olivenhain Road will also be improved to an interim four lanes from El Camino Real to Rancho Santa Fe Road. These improvements will be done with the first phase of development. ARROYO LA COSTA JUNE 6, 1990 PAGE 18 Both the Tentative Map and Planned Development comply with the requirements of the Master Plan. The Master Plan specifies lot size, setbacks, architectural style, amenities, community identity elements, and a sign program, all of which are implemented in the Tentative Map and Planned Development Permit. Planned Development The proposed project also complies with all requirements of the Planned Development Ordinance. In regards to parking, all units will have either a two or three car garage with more than adequate guest parking available on the public streets. Although not required to comply with the Small Lot Planned Unit Development Architectural Guidelines in all villages, the applicant has demonstrated compliance with these guidelines throughout the project to provide more varied and articulated street scenes. The proposed project exceeds the recreation requirements of the Planned Development (PD) Ordinance. The PD Ordinance requires that 200 square feet of recreation space be provided for each dwelling unit. In addition, when lots within a project are less than 7,500 square feet in size both common and private recreation must be provided. As indicated on the chart below this project is required to provide a total of 4.94 acres of common and private recreation facilities. The project has provided 13.73 acres of common recreation area, not including the private rear yards each home will have. Although each residence has a minimum rear yard of 15' x 15', the majority of the lots have substantially more.

ARROYO LA COSTA JUNE 6, 1990 PAGE 19 In addition to the rear yards, a common recreation facility (discussed under SDP 89-18), two passive recreation areas, and 19 individual open space lots have been provided. All of these are linked with the trail system which is available for walking, jogging, or bicycling. A common recreation vehicle storage facility is provided per the requirements of the Planned Development Ordinance within Open Space Area OS-8. This area is not counted toward meeting the Performance Standard Open Space required for either Zone 12 or the Arroyo La Costa Master Plan. The RV area, located above El Camino Real and buffered on all sides by landscaped berms, will not be visible to the public traveling on El Camino Real. The proposed project is required to provide 20 sq. ft. per unit or 21,520 sq. ft. exclusive of driveways or travel lanes. The applicant has exceeded this requirement by providing 27,442 sq. feet or a surplus of 5,922 square feet. Because there is a surplus of space available in the RV area, a portion of the site will be used to provide RV storage for the upcoming Fairways Project (CT 89-6), also owned by the applicant. With the Fairways requirement of 2,660 square feet for 133 units, there will still be a surplus of 3,262 square feet remaining. In summary, the applicant has greatly exceeded the minimum requirements of the PD Ordinance. Hillside As proposed, the Tentative Map and Planned Unit Development comply with all the development and design provisions of the Hillside Ordinance. Grading is proposed at 8,850 cubic yards per acre. These amounts are "potentially acceptable" with the Hillside Ordinance. This figure is calculated over the entire Master Plan area with overall cut and fill grading amounts at 3,824,000 cubic yards. After the allowed exemption for grading amounts on Calle Barcelona, the grading quantity per acre then falls within the acceptable range allowed by the Hillside Development Ordinance. In addition to looking at cubic yards per acre, an analysis was also done of areas with significant amounts of grading. As can be seen from Exhibit X-6, page 32, there are only three larger areas where cut or fill amounts exceed 30'. Areas A and B were permitted to allow construction of roadways which were constrained on both sides by the SDG&E easement or the riparian area. Area C was a 30' deep canyon created as a result of runoff from Segovia Way. Large amounts of grading were required for the construction of Calle Barcelona; however, construction for improvements of Circulation Element roadways are also considered exempt by the Hillside Ordinance. In an effort to better balance grading onsite, grading is proposed to correspond to the phasing of development. Phased grading is permitted by City Ordinance when final maps are phased, (i.e., Arroyo La Costa, three phases). Typically, the phased grading boundary will coincide with the appropriate final map boundary. Where the overall benefits outweigh any possible costs, the phased grading boundary may extend outside the final map boundary. For the Arroyo La Costa grading, Phase I and III need to export approximately 300,000 cubic yards of earth each and ARROYO LA COSTA JUNE 6, 1990 PAGE 20 Phase II needs to import the same quantity. The benefit to the city in allowing this phased grading to extend outside the final map boundary is preventing that 600,000 cubic yards of earth from being hauled over city streets. Any possible problems will be mitigated by the implementation of erosion control methods such as desiltation and landscaping. Overall, the proposed project implements contoured and undulated slopes, enhances views, preserves riparian areas, and minimizes grading. For these reasons, the project has been determined by staff to be in compliance with the Hillside regulations. SITE DEVELOPMENT PLAN fSDP 89-181 Planning Issues 1. Does the proposed common recreation/daycare facility comply with the Master Plan? Discussion The applicant is requesting a site development plan for a recreation/daycare facility within Open Space Area OS-9 of the Master Plan. The Master Plan designates this Planning Area for development with a common recreation/daycare center. To comply with the requirements for common recreation facilities in a planned development, the developer is taking a somewhat different approach by providing one large facility to provide active recreation opportunities rather than smaller, scattered facilities. This larger facility will include the following: 1. A Junior Olympic size swimming pool; 2. A 5,653 square foot recreation building; 3. Three regulation-size tennis courts; 4. A grass play area of approximately 40,480 square feet; and 5. A 5,080 square foot daycare center with fenced play area. This recreation area will be easily accessible from other parts of the Master Plan area via a bike/pedestrian trail system. To increase safety, a pedestrian bridge is proposed between the recreation facility and the Junior High School site on the opposite side of Calle Barcelona. This will make it possible for children/pedestrians to cross a major street without encountering automobile traffic although it is acknowledged that not all pedestrians will use the bridge. In response to concerns for the need for daycare facilities in Carlsbad, a 5,080 square foot daycare center is being provided in the common recreation facility. This daycare center has been designed based on input from local daycare operators to ensure an efficient design. Parking for the recreation center has been calculated in the following manner.

This will allow for independent review of the Site Development Plan in the event that a modification is requested at a fixture date. Overall, the large, common recreational center exceeds both in quality and quantity what would ordinarily be provided in a Planned Unit Development. ARROYO LA COSTA JUNE 6, 1990 PAGE 22 SPECIAL USE PERMIT (SUP 89-3) Planning Issues 1. Will the proposed development be subject to inundation in a 100 year flood? 2. Will the proposed development within the 100 year flood plain adversely impact other properties? 3. Will the proposed development adversely impact the riparian habitat within the detention area? Discussion The applicant is requesting approval of a Special Use Permit because grading work and construction/improvements of public roadways are proposed within the Flood Hazard Area, Zone A and subject to inundation during a 100 year flood. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) establishes Base Flood Elevations (BFE) to determine flood hazard areas. The BFE corresponds to the highest elevation subject to a 100 year flood. A 100 year flood is a flood level which has 1% probability of being equaled or exceeded in a given year. Properties are designated by FEMA to be subject to a 100 year flood when their lowest grade, or lowest finished floor of a structure, is equal to or less than the BFE. The proposed grading work will have a minimum finished elevation of 13.6 feet and 7.1 feet respectively above the 100 year flood elevation for the Flood Hazard Area within the project on the east side of El Camino Real. It should be noted that the existing elevation of El Camino Real, along the project frontage, is 1.0 feet above the 100 year flood elevation for the Flood Hazard Area on the west side of El Camino Real. This difference in elevations is caused by the proposed grading and detention of flood waters on the east side of El Camino Real. (Exhibit X-8, page 34, is attached to graphically depict these elevations.) Although FEMA has not yet established a BFE for the affected area of the Master Plan, the county of San Diego completed a computer analysis in 1981 that established a 100 year flood elevation in a critical area west of El Camino Real of 63.4 feet above sea level. Rick Engineering Company completed a computer analysis in 1988 that established a 100 year flood elevation at the same critical area of 65.6 feet above sea level. The City has reviewed and approved the later analysis as it is the most conservative. Using that higher elevation, the lowest point of El Camino Real is one foot above the flood elevation on the west side of El Camino Real. Because it is designed to detain the 100 year flood within the project boundary, the proposed development will not adversely impact other properties. The designed 100 year flood elevation on the east side is 76.38 feet above sea level. The lowest elevation adjacent to this area is a proposed public roadway at elevation 83.5. The riparian area would be inundated for a maximum ARROYO LA COSTA JUNE 6, 1990 PAGE 23 duration of 6.5 hours during a 100 year storm. That duration will not cause any significant damage to the area. In summary, staff believes the proposed project will not have any developed area inundated in a 100 year flood and would not adversely impact other properties or the riparian habitat area. The EIR prepared for this project supports these conclusions. SPECIAL USE PERMIT (SUP 90-8) 1. Does the project enhance the scenic qualities of the El Camino Real Corridor consistent with the corridor's development standards? Discussion The westerly edge of the Arroyo La Costa Master Plan falls within Area 5 of the El Camino Real Scenic Corridor. The El Camino Real Scenic Corridor study requires approval of a Special Use Permit for all development within 300 feet of the right-of-way of El Camino Real when an upslope conditions exists. The majority of the western edge of the Master Plan is above El Camino Real. The majority of the area within this 300 foot corridor will remain in its natural state. A small portion of Village Q falls within this 300 foot area. The Special Use Permit is required to assure compliance with the requirements of the corridor's development standards. The applicable standards refer to design theme signage, grading, setbacks, street furniture and roof equipment. The standard designates a design theme of "Old California/Hispanic1'. The architecture of the units in Village Q will be Contemporary Mediterranean which is compatible with Old California. If the southern portion of Village Q is utilized for church purposes any church designed in the area will be required to have an "Old California/Hispanic1' style of architecture. The recreational vehicle storage area in Open Space Area OS-8 will also be located within the El Camino Real Scenic Corridor area. This facility will be surrounded by mounding and landscaping so it will not be visible from El Camino ReaL The corridor's applicable building setback requirements are 40 feet from the public right-of-way. There is an open space area which is in excess of 220 feet in width along the entire length of the western project boundary adjacent to El Camino Real, thereby exceeding the setback requirements. GROWTH MANAGEMENT Planning Issues 1. Will the proposed project be consistent with the Growth Management Ordinance? ARROYO LA COSTA JUNE 6, 1990 PAGE 24 Discussion The subject property is located within Local Facility Management Zone 12, Southeast Quadrant. The impacts on public facilities created by the proposed project and compliance with the adopted performance standards are discussed in the Zone 12 plan and are also summarized in the discussion below. In addition to the conditions placed on the tentative map all requirements of the Local Facilities Management Plan as amended for Zone 12 must be complied with in their entirety. FACILITY COMPLIANCE WITH STANDARD City Administrative Facilities - Yes Library - Yes Wastewater Treatment - Yes Parks - See discussion below. Drainage - See discussion below. Circulation - See discussion below. Fire - Yes Open Space - Yes Schools - Yes Sewer Service - Yes Water Service - Yes Parks Prior to the approval of the first final map, the applicant will enter into an agreement dedicating 35 acres of park land and providing financing acceptable to the City for the construction and operation of Alga Norte Park. The park must be functional by 1993 or the performance standard will not be met and no further residential development will be allowed in the Southeast Quadrant. Drainage A detailed hydrological study must be completed which analyzes the capacity of existing drainage structures and which proposes mitigation alternatives including a flood attenuation study for the entire drainage course. The mitigation measures identified in the hydrological study must be provided concurrent with development so the performance standard will be maintained. ARROYO LA COSTA JUNE 6, 1990 PAGE 25 Circulation The following is a list of the existing Circulation Facilities which are currently operating at an unacceptable level of service (LOS D). Location Needed Improvement Road Segments - Olivenhain Road Widen to 4 lanes from El Camino Real to Rancho Rancho Santa Fe Road Santa Fe Road Widen to 4 lanes from La Costa Avenue to Melrose Avenue Intersections - La Costa Avenue and 1-5 Construct Interchange The project has been conditioned in the LFMP to correct these deficiencies. FttttibtittttOft^ $te tentative m^p has been conditioned such that btnMrtg permits cannot be issued unless all of the conditions ami mitigations outlined in the Zone 12 Plan have bees implemented. Also, the tentative map cannot be finailed until City Council has approved a financing plan guaranteeing compliance with Growth Management. RESOLUTION OF INTENTION 181 Discussion A 4.5 acre parcel of land, owned by the Northwestern Pacific Railroad is located adjacent to the southwest corner of the Arroyo Master Plan. The site is an island of useable land with El Camino Real at the west, Olivenhain Road at the south, open space at the north, and a 200' SDG&E easement at the east. As shown on Exhibit X-7, page 33, the site has split general plan designations of Travel Service/Utility (TS/U) and is zoned Limited Control/Public Utility. In reviewing the proposed Master Plan it was discovered that this parcel was under different ownership and was outside the Master Plan boundaries. The proposed Arroyo La Costa Master Plan addresses and completes all planning issues except for land uses on this parcel. Although the subject site is partially designated for commercial development, it is constrained by its topography. Because developable area of the site is 40-50 feet above the roadways, complete excavation of the site and utilization of high retaining walls would be required to develop the site with commercial uses. The other issue constraining development of the site is its proximity to the intersection of two prime arterials. Because the property has only 180 feet of street frontage on El Camino Real and 150 feet along Olivenhain Road, proper intersection/driveway spacing for prime arterials could not be maintained. City Standards require 2,600 feet of spacing on each respective arterial. The only access available to the site will be from a local street (60* wide) through the proposed single family neighborhood to the east. ARROYO LA COSTA JUNE 6, 1990 PAGE 26 The portion of the site designated for Utility uses was reserved many years ago when there was some indication that the property would be used for a pump station for a major fuel line; however, the pump station never developed. The Engineering Department indicates that there is no longer a necessity for such a pump station and concurs with the Planning Department's intent to redesignate the entire site for residential development. After a thorough analysis of the site is complete and the Railroad is allowed to comment, staff recommends that the Planning Commission direct staff to process a General Plan Amendment to redesignate the property to a residential land use. The attached Resolution of Intention is included as a separate item rather than an action necessary for the approval of the Arroyo La Costa Master Plan. FISCAL IMPACT ANALYSIS Planning Issues 1. What are the fiscal impacts created by the proposed project? Discussion Pursuant to 21.38 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code, a fiscal impact analysis has been prepared for the proposed Master Plan. That analysis has been reviewed by the City's Finance Department which has determined that the proposed development will have a net zero fiscal impact on the City. Although the analysis is a reasonable effort to determine the fiscal impacts of development, any report of this type should be accepted only with the knowledge that it is based on a wide range of assumptions. Many of these assumptions must be accepted based on a sense of reasonableness rather than fact or defensible research. Although Staff recommends that the Planning Commission accept the report, this is done with the caveat that the report must be seen by the Commission as an approximation, as opposed to an exact calculation, of the fiscal impacts of this project. Summary The proposed project is consistent with all policies and ordinances governing the subject site. In addition, it provides a development plan that is comprehensive, cohesive, and well-integrated with the surrounding environment. Staff, therefore, recommends approval of all the previously mentioned actions.
