ITEM EXPLANATION This item is for approval of planning regulations which would ensure corn between multi-family residential sites and adjacent single-family residential are regulations have been prepared at the request of the City Council following th of an eight unit residential project on such a site. The project site is located at the northwest corner of La Costa Ave. and Levan and consists of five previously graded lots, zoned for multi-family re development (RD-M) that are located adjacent to existing single-family re development to the north and west. A brief history of the project and the event5 up to this Planning Commission recommendation are provided below: On August 2, 1989 the Planning Commission approved an 8 dwelling L family project on Lot No. 229 which is located in the middle of the fiw lots. The neighbors in the surrounding single-family neighborhood appc decision to the City Council. On September 12, 1989 the City Council all the issues associated with the project and upheld the Planning Cor approval of the project. The project on Lot No. 229 has been constru At the City Council hearing the neighbors were concerned that future mi residential development on the five lots would not be compatible with thc neighborhood. In response to those concerns, the City Council dirc Planning Department to: (1) prepare a specific plan to create tr: development standards for the five lots, and; (2) amend the RD-M Zon the City the authority to impose more restrictive development standar development is proposed on any RD-M zoned lot located adjacent to family zoned lot. In addition, the Planning Department recommend€ Planning Commission that the Qualified Overlay Zone be placed on thc for the reasons stated below in item No. 2 P 0 ' PAGE 2 OF AGENUA BILL NO. J/) M 3 d x L 0 J On September 18, 1991 , the Planning Commission considered and recomrr approval of a specific plan (SP 208), a zone change to add the Qualified-Overla on the five RD-M zoned lots, and to amend the RD-M Zone. These three actions ensure that future multi-family residential development is compatible WI surrounding neighborhood, and provides the following three layers of regulatory over development on the five lots: (1) Specific Plan 208 contains setback, landscaping, wall and height standarc architectural guidelines to provide buffering and compatibility betwe existing single-family land uses to the north and west, and the future mu1 development on the remaining RD-M zoned vacant lots. Placement of the Qualified Overlay Zone on the five subject lots would that any future development on the vacant lots would require discretions? and approval from the Planning Commission or City Council. The proposed amendment to the RD-M Zone would provide the F Commission or City Council with the authority to impose special condi requirements for RD-M zoned lots adjacent to R-1 zoned lots. On a C basis this amendment would ensure adequate buffering and coml between the two residential land uses. (2) (3) The recommended specific plan, addition of the Q-Overlay Zone on the five parc the zone code amendment to the RD-M Zone would comprehensively ensure th multi-family residential development on these five lots is compatible with surr neighborhood.

DISCUSSION OF EaJVlR0"TAL EVALUATION: The proposed project consists of a Specific Plan that establishes development stand; parcels generally located at the northwest comer La Costa Avenue and Levante St: to the following two amendments to Title 21 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code: zoning map to change the zoning designation on the same five parcels from Resi Multiple (RDM) to Residential Density-Multiple with the Qualified Overlay Zonc Amend Chapter 2 1.24 of the Residential Density-Multiple Zone to incorporate I transitional development standards when development is proposed on any RDM z immediately adjacent to an R-1 Zone. PHysrcAL ENVIRONMENT: (1 - 11 ) The five lots have been previously rough graded into level building p physical development is proposed as part of this project. The Zone Cl Code Amendment, and Specific Plan do not alter the existing type or residential land use designated for these lots as determined by the Genera Use Element and Zoning Ordinance. The project establishes land use that: (1) Require a discretionary Site Development Plan for any future n residential development on the five parcels; (2) Create transitional dc standards in the RDM Zone for lots that are located adjacent to R-1 Zon Create development standards and design guidelines in the form of a Sk for the five parcels. The proposed physical development of residential dw on these five lots will require additional environmental review. BIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENT: (12-16) The five vacant parcels have been previously disturbed by authorized g are entirely devoid of any native vegetation, (See sections on physical a environment). HUMANENvIR0"T: (1 7-32) The Zone Change, Zone Code Amendment, and Specific Plan do not alter 1 type or density of residential land use designated for these lots as detennj General Plan Land Use Element and Zoning Ordinance.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND Neighbors in the area surrounding the project site have expressed concerns that pro multi-family residential development on the five lots located on the northwest corner Costa Avenue and Levante Street will have a detrimental effect on the existing single-f neighborhood located to the north and west. In response to those concerns ai direction from the City Council, the Planning Department is recommending approvz specific plan for the five lots, placement of the Qualified Overlay Zone on the propc and an amendment to the RD-M Zone. 0 w * SP 208/ZC 90-5/ZCA 91-4 - LEVANTE STREET SEPTEMBER 18, 1991 PAGE 2 Specific Plan 208 is being proposed by the City of Carlsbad to create develo standards for five residential lots on Levante Street to provide buffering and compal between existing single-family land uses to the north and west, and future multi- residential development on four of the five lots. The fifth lot has been developed 1 multi-family residential units (see page 2, paragraph 3). The zone change would pla Qualified Overlay Zone (Q) on these lots. The Q-Overlay Zone supplements the undc zone by providing additional regulations for development within designated are: requires that a discretionary Site Development Plan be processed with any proposed family residential development on the lots. The Q-Overlay Zone would ensure that family development is compatible with the surrounding neighborhood tl- implementation of the Specific Plan 208. The Zone Code Amendment would incor into the RD-M Zone, generalized language providing the City with the authority to r increased standards. The increased requirements would apply to proposed multi- residential development on vacant RD-M zoned lots located adjacent to property single-family residential (R-1). The project site (APN: 223-170-18, 19,20,21 and 22) has been previously rough 1 into terraced lots that average 33,105 square feet in size. The five parcels are CUI zoned Residential Density-Multiple (RD-M) which permits multi-family and single- residential development. The General Plan Land Use designation is Residential M High (Range: 8-15 dus/ac) with a Growth Control Point of 11.5 dus/ac. The surroi neighborhood is developed with multi-family residential land uses and a fire station south, single-family development to the west and north, and multi-family developm the east. The City Council, at its meeting of September 12, 1989, denied an appeal and up Planning Commission decision to approve an eight-dwelling unit, planned unit develo (CT 89-1/PUD 89-1) for Lot 229 of this specific plan. This eight-unit project ha: constructed. Lot 229 is included within this rezone and specific plan despite the fa( development exists. If these existing residential structures were removed, remodel destroyed, all new additions or structures would have to abide by the new require of this specific plan. This would bring Lot 229 into conformance with the specific pl; adjacent lots developed under the specific plan. 111. ANALYSIS Planning Issues 1. 2. Does the proposed specific plan implement the General Plan? Does the proposed zone change and specific plan emure that future multi- development of the lots minimizes visual and land use compatibility i~ associated with the higher density multi-family residential development? 0 ' , SP 208iZC 90-5/ZCA @ 4 - LEVANTE STREET SEPTEMBER 18, 1991 PAGE 3 3. Will the proposed Zone Code Amendment provide adequate controls on multi-fa residential development constructed adjacent to R-1 zoned property? Is the proposed project in compliance with the Growth Management Ordinanl Will the project have a significant impact on the environment? 4. 5. DISCUSSION General Plan Implementation The proposed Specific Plan, Zone Change, and Zone Code Amendment implements General Plan in several ways. First, the Specific Plan does not alter the type and de1 of residential development, therefore, the plan is consistent with the project s Residential Medium High (RMH) General Plan Land Use designation. Secondly, proposed development standards are in accordance with General Plan residential guide1 designed to preserve the neighborhood atmosphere and identity of existing reside areas. The Q-Overlay zone will, through the requirement of a Site Development E implement the General Plan Land Use Guidelines and ensure that developmer compatible with the surrounding neighborhood. Specific Plan and Zone Channe The Specific Plan establishes site specific development standards and design guidelines would reduce land use impacts as follows: 1. The additional 20 foot building setbacks, and wall, balcony, height, architecc and landscape buffer requirements on Lot 231 would ensure that visual imi created by potentially large and massive multi-family structures would be minim for the single-family homes directly west. A 15 foot slope setback along the northern property lines and the acces structure, height and architectural requirements would minimize visual impact: single-family homes directly down slope to the north. The 30 foot or two story height requirement and architectural guidelines wc ensure that multi-family development is compatible and in scale with surrounding single-family neighborhood. Placing the Qualified Overlay Zone on the properties would ensure that a Development Plan is processed with any proposed multi-family reside] development. The Q-Overlay Zone would ensure that proposed developmei 2. 3. 4. 0 a SP 208/ZC 90-5/ZCA 91-4 - LEVANTE STREET SEPTEMBER 18, 1991 PAGE 4 consistent with the Specific Plan and compatible with the surrounding developr The Q-Overlay will also provide the Planning Commission with the opportunii discretionary review of any development on the subject site. Zone Code Amendment A review of the City's zoning maps indicates that there are approximately 15 vacant R lots adjacent to existing R-1 zoned properties. A review of the City's General Plan Use Map indicates that there are a number of undeveloped areas in the City where i is the potential to have future RD-M-zoned properties adjacent to R-1 properties situations where there are RD-M-zoned lots adjacent to R-1 lots, the individual phj circumstances could be very different, therefore, specific quantitative standards m prove inflexible and should not be incorporated into the RD-M Zone. The Plan Department recommends that the RD-M Zone be amended with general language provides the decision makers with the authority to impose special condition: requirements when appropriate for RD-M lots adjacent to R-1 lots. The Planning Department recommends that adequate buffering and standards to en compatibility with R-1 Lots be placed on the RD-M lots. The RD-M Zone permits family and multi-family residential structures that create more impacts because thej normally larger in size and bulk, and are developed at a higher density and intensil residential land use. The Planning Department recommends that the Title 21 of the Carlsbad Municipal CI Chapter 21.24 (RD-M Zone) be amended to include a new section that reads as follc New section, 21.24.160, entitled "Lots adjacent to R-1 zoned property" Ln approving a site development plan, planned development permit, tentative map or other discretionary permit, for a property located adjacent to an R-1 zone, the decision maker may impose special conditions or requirements that include provisions for, but are not limited to, the following: (1) (2) (3) Additional landscaping; (4) Signs, fences, and walls; (6) (7) (8) . Special setbacks, yards, open space; Special height and bulk of building regulations; (5) special gradin%: restrictions; Regulation of point of ingress and egress; Compatibility with surrounding properties and land uses; Such other conditions as deemed necessary to ensure conformity with general plan and other adopted policies, goals or objectives of the city. I , SP 208/ZC 90-5/ZCA 4) -4 - LEVANTE STREET SEPTEMBER 18, 1991 PAGE 5 Growth Manazement The five parcels are located within Local Facilities Management Plan Zone 6 in Southeast Quadrant. The impacts associated with the existing subdivision were anal: in the Zone 6 plan, approved on November 10, 1987. Therefore, because no additi dwelling units are proposed, no further analysis is needed for the proposed Specific E As these lots are developed, the owners must comply with all conditions of the Zo: plan. nr. ENVIRONMENTAL REYEW The site has been previously disturbed by authorized grading and is devoid of significant natural biological resources. The disturbed condition of the site also reduce: potential for cultural resources. The proposed project is compatible with the surroun uses, and is consistent with the General Plan and zoning. The Specific Plan, Zone Cha and Zone Code Amendment were analyzed through an Environmental Assessment Pa and field visits. The Planning Director has determined that the proposed develop1 standards and guidelines, Zone Change, and Zone Code Amendment would not create significant adverse environmental impacts, and a Negative Declaration was issued May 30, 1991. SUMMARY The proposed project is (1) consistent with the General Plan; (2) minimizes compatil impacts between higher density multi-family development and single-family developn (3) is in conformance with the Zone 6 Local Facilities Management Plan; and (4) wil have any significant adverse environmental impacts based on the requirements environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act. Therefore, recommends approval of SP 208/ZC 90-05/ZCA 91-04, based on the findings conditions found in the attached resolutions. ATTACHMENTS 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Background Data Sheet 6.

ARCJAITEcXURALGULD~Es Architecture is a very important element in the overall design of a project. Higl density multi-family residential development that is designed in scale w surrounding land uses and the pedestrian is visually and aesthetically pleasi provides harmony and continuity in the project, and increases the proje compatibility with the street scene and surrounding land uses. A pleasing living environment and compatible development can be created throi the application of good architecture and neighborhood design principles. ' primary application of these design principals is directed towards residen architecture and the streetscape. A. General Desim Standards The following set of architectural standards and guidelines should incorporated into the design of each project to create aesthetically plea and compatible multi-family residential development. Each proposed prc will be reviewed by the City for compliance with these guidelines. 1. Visual interest should be created by using varied and recei dwelling unit entryway treatments for townhome type units. Varied building height and roof massing should be utilized. To create variety and visual interest along the street and drivew; variety of facade treatments, including roof, window, siding, 1 accent, garage door, and entryway types should be used. Building facades (particularly street elevations) and roof planes sh be varied in placement and size to avoid visual monotony, to CT visual interest, and to provide a pedestrian scale. Special con should be placed on building facades that face adjoining single-fa development. Further articulation of building facades and roof planes shod accomplished by introducing sub-elements such as architec projections, dormers, roof overhangs, building face trim, recc doorways or entryway courtyards and bay windows. For two-story structures, scale and vertical transition shod created along the street elevations and elevations that face s family development by "stepping back" the second story. Sy attention should be placed on those building planes that face SI family development. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 10 w 7. An accent window having a different or articulated shape rounded, diamond), and with contrasting moldings or with f texture (Le. many small planes) may be used to create heres building elevations. Solar energy equipment such as solar panels, and solar module piping that is located on the roof should be well integrated intc roof design in terms of placement, screening and color. Project perimeter walls or fences should compliment the pro. architecture and should avoid monotony by using design elem with horizontal articulation (i.e. caps, cornices,or contrasting ac bands) and vertical articulation (i.e. periodic pilasters, insets, off buttress, change of material, etc.). 8. 9. 10. The architecture should complement surrounding develop: whenever possible to provide blending and compatibility surrounding land uses. B. Buildinn Materials 1. Plain building surfaces should be embellished with loca contrasting materials such as accents and trims. Instead of 1 contrasting materials on the same flat building surface it is be offset the materials on different building planes. Any bare metallic surfaces (vents, pipes, gutters, flashing, etc.) st be painted or covered from view in a manner harmonious general exterior architectural treatment of the building. To better complement natural materials and earth tones c commonly found in contemporary residential structures, the cov of metallic aluminum frames around doors and windows with v brick, or stucco trim systems is encouraged. Anodized dun window frames are also appropriate. To provide visual interest and/or architectural accents on s finished structures use moldings, cornices, insets and offsets. To ( more visual interest, a portion of the exterior building surface s be covered with complimentary materials, texture, and color. Building materials should complement surrounding develoi whenever possible in order to provide harmony and compatibiliq the surrounding neighborhood. 2. 3. 4. 5. 11 0 w 6. Driveway materials that retain their original beauty and strength st as textured concrete, brick, tile, or conglomerate should be U~ outside the City right-of-way. Trees should be used to interrupt the appearance of long horizoi building mass. 7. 12 e W RESIDENTIAL ARCHITECTURE STREETSCAPE ELEMENTS E TREATMENTS ACCENT FEAmES) EETSCAPE ELEMENTS WHICH CREATE m: SI~ILU) ROOF AND STRUCTUPE SIDUUG MATERIA SlMllAR AND PERMCAU Y Ocm STREET 13 0 w I ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN ELEMENTS BUILDING FACADE \ 4 ARllCULATED ROOF PLA OtTSETROOR PLANS A PARnAL ROW.

Commissioner Erwin declared that he owns two pieces of property within 500 ft. of the proposed project and excused himself due to a conflict of interest. He left the room. Jeff Gibson, Associate Planner, reviewed the background of the request and stated that on August 2, 1989 approved an 8-unit multi-family project on Lot No. 229 which is located in the middle of the five lots being considered. At that public hearing, surrounding neighbors raised many issues of concern regarding density and increased traffic in the neighborhood. All issues were reviewed by the Planning Commission and a decision was made to approve the proposed project. The neighbors appealed the decision to the City Council. On September 12, 1989 the City Council reviewed the same issues and upheld the Planning Commission's approval of the project. The project on Lot 229 has since been constructed and completed. regarding compatibility, the City Council instructed staff to prepare a Specific Plan to create transitional development standards for the five lots and to amend the RD-M Zone to give the City the authority to impose more restrictive transitional development standards when development is proposed on any RD-M lot located adjacent to a single family zoned lot. That Specific Plan is presented tonight, together with a proposed zone change with a qualified overlay to ensure that future development of those lots will be subject to a discretionary site development plan review by the Planning Commission. The qualified overlay and the transitional development standards found in Specific Plan 208 will ensure that future development on the remaining four vacant lots will be compatible with the surrounding single family neighborhood. He showed some slides of the lots and surrounding area. Staff recommends approval. Chairman Holmes opened the public testimony and issued the invitation to speak. Mark Lucci, Joseph Wong & Associates, 2359 Fourth Avenue, San Diego, addressed the Commission and stated that he represents the owners of Lot Nos. 230 and 231. They are in agreement with all of the issues in the Specific Plan and they support the approval. There being no other persons desiring to address the Commission on this topic, Chairman Holmes declared the public testimony closed and opened the item for discussion among the Commission members.
