ITEM EXPLANATION Following the adoption of Proposition C by the voters in 1' member agencies of the San Diego Association of Government a joint powers authority, called the Regional Growth Mal Review Board, for the purpose of developing a Regional Management Strategy (RGMS). The heart of the strategy b( adopted list of nine Quality of Life Factors that were de to be of region-wide importance. The nine factors are: Air Quality Transportation System and Demand Management Water Sewage Treatment Sensitive Lands Preservation and Open Space Protection Solid Waste Management Hazardous Waste Management Housing Economic, Prosperity Each Quality of Life Factor has a standard, similar to Ca Growth Management Performance Standards, along with Object Recommended Actions. These program elements are intc enable the measurement of local government compliance or towards compliance with the Regional Strategy. Some taken directly from state or federal laws. Others were d by various technical committees based upon local and needs. Work is still being done on some items, incluc standard for Economic Prosperity, regional land use distr growth rate policies, and financing for regional facilities. All of the member agencies of SANDAG were asked to adopt t Regional Growth Management Strategy, which the Carlsl Council did on March 24, 1992. Then each jurisdiction w to perform a self-evaluation and certification of its the of compliance with the those completed and adopted stand checklist was prepared by SANDAG staff and each agency its degree of compliance as of mid-1992. standards, such as those for air quality and transportat c ? 9 PAGE 2 OF AGENDA BILL NO. jdi ?3/ 0 L The City Council approved Carlsbadls checklist at a public held August 18, 1992. As was the case of all jurisdictions, Carlsbad found itself in compliance with mc not all, of the questions on the original checklist. The subject of this agenda bill is the second self-certif checklist and the progress which the City has made in thc between mid-1992 and the end of 1993. In the interval the Board has approved refinements to somt standards, and work is still being undertaken on E Prosperity, land use distribution, and other Quality somewhat to reflect the refined nature of the Regional Management Strategy and to reflect the cumulative progres: local agencies in coming into compliance.

LOCAL/REGIONAL CONSISTENCY CHECKLIST FOR THE REGIONAL GROWTH MANAGEMENT STRATEGY AND CONGESTION MANAGEMENT PROGRAM April, 1994 This checklist is to be used by local and regional agencies to determine the consistency their general and community plans, policies and regulations/ordinances with the Region Growth Management Strategy and Congestion Management Program. It will also be us monitor implementation of the recommended actions and the achievement of the quality life standards and objectives. Local and regional agencies will describe what actions th have taken or will take to achieve consistency with the Strategy and evaluate their performance with respect to the quality of life standards and objectives. The questions are organized according to the nine quality of life factors as follows: Air Quality and Transportation/Congestion Management Regional Trip Reduction Program Transportation Capacity Expansion to Help Provide Alternatives to Driving Alone/Transit Performance Standards Land Use Actions/Level of Service Standards for Arterials and Freeways Transportation System Management Water 0 Sewage Treatment 0 Sensitive Lands and Open Space Preservation and Protection Solid Waste Management Hazardous Waste Management Housing Economic Prosperity (Questions regarding Economic Prosperity will be added when work on that factor has been completed.) 0 0 8 The questions are categorized according to the parties responsible for answering them; i the cities and the County, the transit boards, the County Water Authority, etc. The transportation questions have also been designed to enable the cities and County to self- certify conformance with the Congestion Management Program (CMP) requirements. [? from Carlsbad stag: questions pertaining to the Counn/ and special districts/agencies hi been deleted from this version of the questionnaire.] Guidelines to help answer the open space/sensitive lands questions are also included (Attachment 1). These guidelines are derived from the Definition of Regionally Signifil Open Space and may be used, if a jurisdiction wishes, to provide more specific inform2 about its open space and sensitive lands regulations. There are two types of questions in the Checklist: self-certification questions and moni questions. The monitoring questions are noted with an asterisk, and are intended to prc Strategy. The responsible agency should answer the questions by checking "Yes", "No "Not Applicable", or by providing the requested information and noting its source. A question has been added this year to each consistency question, which allows agencies 1 if compliance was achieved in a previous year. A "Yes" answer indicates consistency with the Strategy, and should be documented noting the ordinance number and date of adoption, the element of the General/Comn Plan(s), or other policy or regulation. A "No" answer indicates inconsistency with the Strategy, and requires the reporting agency to indicate what actions will be taken, and a schedule to achieve consistency A "Not Applicable" answer should be used when the question does not apply to a particular agency. Each question is followed by a line where "Yes" answers can be documented, and several lines for comments or explanations. If more space is need should be provided for all answers. SANDAG with information to monitor the region's progress toward implementing the explain a "No" or "Not Applicable" answer, please attach additional sheets. Explan 2 e .

The local ordinance is to contain two components: 1) land use-based strategies and 2) empl based strategies. In response to Federal Clean Air Act requirements, the APCD now adopted its Regulation XU], which is a set of employer-based trip reduction strategies which will become efective in mid 1995 and will serve the same finctic the employee-based part of the local Trip Reduction Ordinance. Therefore, Carl: understands that our ordinance need not focus upon employee-based strategies, u we wish to administer/enforce the provisions of Regulation XIII. If we do wish to assume this role, then our ordinance must emulate all aspects of Regulation XIII. do not wish to assume this role, the APCD will assume the administrative and enforcement responsibilities for employer-based strategies, and our ordinance shc focus on the land use-based strategies. Once a model ordinance is produced whi addresses the land-use-based strategies, we will prepare our local Trip Reductior Ordinance.

Year Documentation: ** In 1986, the City of Carlsbad developed and adopted the Carlsbad Growth Management Program. The Growth Management program required the adoption various pe formance standards establishing thresholds of the adequacy of public facilities in Carlsbad. Therefore, on September 23, 1986, the City Council adoptc Resolution No. 8797 approving the City’s Community Facilities and Improvement d@ning the perormance standards, The perormance standard for circulation is follows: “No road segment or intersection in the flacility management] zone nor any road segment or intersection out of the flacility management] zone which is impacted by development in the lfacility management] zone shall be projected to exceed a Service Level of C during ofS-peak hours, nor Service Level D during peak hours. Impacted means where 20% or more of the trafic generated by the local facility management zone will use the road segment or intersection. If The peformance standard has been applied to all major circulation facilities with City, including state highways and peeway ramps and overpasses. For each of the 25 Facility Management Zones in the City, a Local Facility Management Plan must be prepared which 1) identijies the public facilities needec within the zone based upon a land use assessment rejned from the General Plan, 2) a Bnancing scheme (including phasing) to supply the finds necessary to provid needed facilities. Unless this plan has been prepared and adopted, no developme proceed within the zone. As Local Facilities Management Plans are completed ai finding sources identiped, those capital facilities which will not be constructed di by the developer as part of subdivision requirements are added to the City’s Capi Improvement Program and built as finds are collected. These major capital improvements include, for example, expansions of I-5 freeway overpasses at Palo) 7 0 0 Airport Road, Poinsettia Lane, and La Costa Boulevard.

Year Documentation: ** Comments: ** Most lands within the Carlsbud city boundaries are designated by the general plan urban, rather than rural, uses. Carlsbad neither has, nor intends to have in thefi a policy for the permanent preservation of major tracts of land designated as "ruri village 'I, "rural area 'I, etc., as does the County of San Diego. The only exception those lands which are designated for the City's open space, trail, and parks systen and those lands which have been and will continue to be identiJied for sensitive sp protection and habitat management. Although the city encourages the practice of agriculture on an interim basis, as urbanization and economic pressures increase, the viability of farming activity is 1 to decrease. One exception to this may be the Carltas 'lflower fields" located just of I-5 near Palomar Airport Road. This property of approximately 50 acres is sul to Williamson Act protection and is both designated and zoned for permanent ope1 space because of its long-standing agricultural and community value. The Ciq hc that these protective measures, together with favorable economic circumstances, v result in flower production remaining viable for many years to come.

List the current and proposed funding sources/programs being used to acquire/protc sensitive lands, and regional parks and open space. Documentation: ** In the summer of 1992 the City approved a comprehensive "Open Space and Conservation Resource Management Plan " (OSCRMPJ, the culmination of a three, open space planning efon. This plan: provides highly rejined deJnitions of open space; identijks specijic needs and acquisition targets for each of the City's 25 LOC Facilities Management Zones, including the components of a 74-mile city trail systt and regional parks and open space additions; and estimates costs for implementatic The plan anticipates costs ofi $8.8 million for land acquisition, 3.4 million for improvements, and approximately $600,000 per year for maintenance. The plan is considered incomplete, because it was unable to include ajinal analys- habitat management needs and strategies engendered by the recent "listing" of the California Gnat Catcher and heightened concerns over pending listings of other endangered species. The City is currently working on the Carlsbad component of larger, regional, multi-species habitat management planning eflort now underway county. When the many issues associated with this efsort are better resolved, the 2 capital, and maintenance needs can be refined for all of the city's open space and habitat needs, and then financing mechanisms can be more actively identified and pursued. Based upon the 1992 OSCRMP, the City will depend upon a combination of tools finance the program. Much of the trail system will be acquired and built as development exactions. The City is exploring the feasibility of providing maintena for the system through a city-wide assessment district. Another important acquisit, and improvement component is likely to be ~d general obligation bond, although th planning for the voter approval of a bond issue is "on hold", pending both the oui of the habitat management needs and an improved economy. State parks grants a also being aggressively pursued: Carlsbad will be the recipient of $3 million for tl multi-species habitat program if the CalPAW'94 initiative bond issue is passed by voters in June of 1994.

Year Documentation: ** Comments: ** The Southern California Hazardous Waste Management Authority (Authority) has responsibility of assisting local governments in the development of intergovernmer / 22 0 e agreements. However, at this time, there are no intergovernmental agreements foi hazardous waste management in Southern California. Critical to the formation of agreements is certain information, including: quantifiing the prospective local am regional hazardous waste streams, the formulation of siting criteria for waste processing facilities, and the demarcation of "wastesheds " to supply these fucilitie: This and other information in the Southern California Hazardous Waste Managemt Plan (Regional Plan) is currently being revised to define better the waste generatic patterns of Southern California, and therefore the needs for facilities. Agreements incentive programs for siting hazardous waste facilities are being actively pursued the assistance of the Authority. As the revised information is made available and ( interest increases from potential private operators of facilities, proposals for siting facilities will likely increase, thus fostering the formation of such agreements. The City has adopted Ordinance No, NS 208, which established procedures for thc processing of such facilities, in keeping with the County of San Diego Hazardous Management Plan, one of the county plans upon which the Regional Plan is based this time the City of Carlsbad has received no proposals for the siting of hazardou waste management facilities. Therefore, it is appropriate for Carlsbad to check tA "not applicable" box for this question at this time. 5.

The thrust of these programs was establishment of a comprehensive, workable, inclusionary housing program, inch numerical requirements for lower-income housing in residential developments, re6 opportunities for density bonuses, modijkation to the Land Use Element to enablc increased densities, and sources of revenue for a housing trust find (residential ii and impact fees). During late 1992 and theJirst half of 1993 the City adopted th ordinances, general plan amendments, and resolutions necessary to bring the 25 0 e I inclusionary housing program into efect in the City. The key conditions have now met, and, as a consequence, the City stands in unconditional compliance with statt housing law. The City ’s Housing Element and CHAS cull for implementing additional housing programs, and the City is following through on these additional items. * 5. What was your jurisdiction’s progress toward meeting the regional share objective year? Please note the number of units constructed by income level. Documentation: ** Documentation is not available. See following comment. Comments: ** In the extended efort to implement its inclusionary housing program during the fifil half of 1993, the City was unable to implement an independent rent and sales pric monitoring program which would enable it to determine which new housing units qualged as ”afordable” for each of the four income components of the regional J objectives. Therefore no data are available by which to measure progress on regi share by income level. Over-all the City did produce 131 new housing units in calendar year 1993. The number is low, reflecting both the economic recession a developer uncertainty during the development of the City’s inclusionary housing program. None of the new units was income-restricted, Of the total 131 units, 8 were single-family, 16 were in buildings of 2-4 units and 26 were in buildings of: more units. Because of the prevailing economic conditions it is unlikely that any 1 new units were afordable to low- or very low-income households. The Civ did actively panicipate in the regional ad hoc task force hosted by SAM to develop a set of common definitions and standards by which monitoring system! could be developed. This agreed-upon approach was endorsed by HCD and acce, by the SANDAG Board on September 24th, 1993, for use by member jurisdictions keeping with the strategy, and through use of the common set of definitions, Carl5 will prepare an annual housing report for the period July 1993 - June 1994 for submission to HCD in October of 1994. This report will be the basis for respond this question in the next RGMS checklist update.
