RECOMMENDED ACTION:
That the City Council ADOPT Resolution No. 99 -/Jz , APPROVING SDP 98-09/CDP 98-38 as recommended for approval by the Planning Commission.
ITEM EXPLANATION:
On March 17, 1999, the Planning Commission conducted a public hearing and recommended
approval (7-O) of the Poinsettia Properties Planning Area 5 proposed project. The subject site is
located in the southwest quadrant of the City, near the intersection of Poinsettia Lane and Avenida Encinas, in Local Facilities Management Zone 22.
This proposal includes a request for a Site Development Plan and accompanying Coastal
Development Permit to construct 92 affordable housing units within Planning Area 5 (PA 5) of the
Poinsettia Properties Specific Plan Area. PA 5 was designated to fulfil1 the affordable housing
obligations for Planning Areas 1-4, 7 and 8 of the Specific Plan.
The proposed apartment project consists of seven separate residential structures including 36 one bedroom (39%) 44 two bedroom (48%) and 12 three bedroom units (13%). The project will also
feature a 20,000 square foot neighborhood area containing an approximately 2,500 square foot
recreation building with kitchen and laundry facilities, a tot lot with playground equipment, a
swimming pool with changing rooms, a private pedestrian trail system, a passive recreation area for
senior citizens, a half-basketball court, an active open play area, as well as numerous benches and
tables.
The Poinsettia Properties Affordable Housing Agreement was approved by the City Council on
December 8, 1998. This agreement included a construction loan in the amount of $920,000 from
the City’s Housing Trust Fund. The City also agreed to the issuance of $6.5 million of tax-exempt
revenue bonds. Bridge Housing Corporation, developer of the Villa Loma development, is the general partner of the applicant, HSL/BP Michan, and will be responsible for construction,
maintenance and operation of the future Poinsettia Garden Apartments.
The Poinsettia Properties Planning Area 5 proposal was found to be consistent with the various
elements of the General Plan, the applicable segments of the Local Coastal Program, the applicable sections of the Specific Plan and the Municipal Code, as well as the Local Facilities Management
Plan for Zone 22. Therefore, the Planning Commission and staff are recommending approval of the
proposed development.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
The proposed project was included in the Program EIR (EIR 96-10) prepared for the Poinsettia
Properties Specific Plan. The project is still consistent with the land uses, design guidelines and facility improvements required in the specific plan. No new impacts are anticipated as a result of this
proposal except with regard to traffic. The City’s annual Growth Management Traffic Monitoring
Report indicates an unanticipated intersection level of service failure at Palomar Airport Road and El
Camino Real during both the a.m. and p.m. peak hours. This creates a changed circumstance
necessitating a mitigation measure requiring the developer to pay his fair share towards the short- term improvement to this intersection prior to the issuance of building permits. With this mitigation

measure in place, no further environmental documentation is necessary; the project is considered
exempt under Section 15182 of the California Environmental Quality Act.
FISCAL IMPACT:
All public facilities required to serve the additional dwelling units will be constructed prior to or
concurrent with development as mandated by Local Facilities Management Plan for Zone 22. Since
these improvements will be constructed by the developer, no negative fiscal impact will be incurred by the City, As noted above, the applicant will also be responsible for his pro rata share towards the
cost of short term improvements to the intersection of Palomar Airport Road and El Camino Real.
Development of PA 5 will increase land values thus creating a positive fiscal impact in the form of
increased property tax revenues.

SUBJECT: SDP 98-09lCDP 98-38 - POINSETTIA PROPERTIES PA 5 - Request for
approval of a Site Development Plan and Coastal Development Permit to
construct 92 affordable apartments near the northwest comer of Avenida Encinas
and Poinsettia Lane in Local Facilities Management Zone 22.
That the Planning Commission ADOPT Planning Commission Resolutions No. 4514 and 4515
RECOMMENDING APPROVAL of SDP 98-09 and CDP 98-38 based on findings and subject
to the conditions contained therein.
II. INTRODUCTION
The proposed site development plan intends to create 92 affordable apartments within Planning
Area 5 of the Poinsettia Properties Specific Plan area to fulfil1 the affordable housing obligations
for Planning Areas l-4, 7 and 8 of the Specific Plan. As designed and conditioned, the project is
consistent with all relevant City regulations and policies. All issues have been resolved.
III. PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND
In January 1998 and October 1998, the City Council and California Coastal Commission
respectively approved the Poinsettia Properties Specific Plan. This document addresses eight
planning areas wrapping around the east, west and south sides of the Poinsettia Transit Station.
The Specific Plan was designed to create a transit-oriented development (TOD) project located
near the rail station and the nearby major transportation corridor, Interstate 5. The subject site is
located within the southwest quadrant of the City in Local Facilities Management Zone 22.
Planning Area 5 (see Attachment 6) is bounded on the north and east by Avenida Encinas, on
the immediate south by PA 4 (designated for single family development) and on the immediate
west by PA 6 (designated for commercial/retail land development). The vacant project site has a
basically flat elevation and has been disturbed by agricultural operations and contains ruderal
vegetation limited to non-native grasses and small shrubs.
Six buildings wrap around the exterior of the site-three sixteen-plexes, three twelve-plexes, and
one eight-plex. The interior of the site is designed as a common neighborhood area for a variety
of activities including an approximately 2,500 square foot recreation building with a kitchen,
fireplace, common room, and laundry facilities; a “tot-lot” with playground equipment; a
swimming pool with changing rooms; a private pedestrian trail system; a passive recreation area
SDP 98-09KDP 98-38 - POINSETTIA PROPERTIES PA 5
March 17,1999
for senior citizen activities, a half-basketball court; and an active recreation area for open play.
Ample benches, tables, and seating are sprinkled throughout the development to encourage more
resident interaction and passive recreation opportunities.
As designated in the Specific Plan, the project is designed with a Seaside Cottage architectural
style featuring painted lap siding, wood balustrades, patio trellises, wood picket fences and wood
knee braces. Dormer windows, canvas awnings, and trellises provide window accents.
Architectural-grade (thicker ends) composition shingles will provide shadow relief as roof
treatment.
Easy pedestrian access is provided to PA 6 (the mixed-use area) through the tree-lined main entry
on the west side of the site. To establish better interaction between residents and pedestrians,
units were designed to front on the public street and were provided with fenced-in patios at the
ground level and balconies at the second level. Pedestrian circulation is achieved throughout the
development with pathways to recreation facilities, parking, the-public-street, and direct access to
the street from 32 of the units. Abundant landscaping accents the development at the main entry,
the neighborhood area and throughout the parking lot which provides 193 uncovered parking
spaces.
The affordable housing project proposes 92 apartment units. These units will include 36 one
bedroom (39%), 44 two bedroom (48%) and 12 three bedroom units (13%). All 92 units will
rent affordable to households having incomes at or below 60% of the area median income. The
Housing Cornmission reviewed the subject SDP for the project in August, 1998 and
recommended approval to the Planning Commission.
The project will be importing 35,500 cubic yards of fill to create a construction pad somewhat
level with the elevation of Avenida Encinas. The proposed import will add 3-4 feet of fill to the
subject site which is that much lower than the Avenida Encinas elevations.
The proposed project is subject to the following plans, ordinances, standards and policies:
A. Carlsbad General Plan;
B. Mello II Segment of the Carlsbad Local Coastal Program;
C. Poinsettia Properties Specific Plan and underlying RD-M Zone;
D. Inclusionary Housing Ordinance; and,
E. Growth Management Ordinance.
IV. ,4NALYSIS
The recommendation of approval for this project was developed by analyzing the project’s
consistency with the applicable policies and regulations listed above. The following analysis
section discusses compliance with each of these regulations/policies.
- -
SDP 98-09KDP 98-38 - POINSETTIA PROPERTIES PA 5
March 17,1999
A. GENERAL PLAN
When the City Council approved the Specific Plan in 1998 the finding was made that the
Poinsettia Properties Specific Plan implements the General Plan and is consistent with the goals,
objectives, and policies of the General Plan. This finding was based on the fact that the specific
plan provides for the following: (1) the provision of the necessary circulation element roadway
improvements (Avenida Encinas, and Carlsbad Boulevard;) (2) the protection and enhancement
of the off-site wetland areas; (3) the construction of a future public trail; (4) the provisions for
affordable housing; and (5) compliance with the Local Facilities Management Plan Zone 22 for
public facilities and services. Based on this implementation and consistency relationship
between the Poinsettia Properties Specific Plan and the General Plan, it can be assumed that if
the proposed subdivision is consistent with the Specific Plan, the subdivision is also consistent
with the General Plan. As noted above, the subdivision lots are coincident with the Specific Plan
planning area boundaries.
B. MELLO II SEGMENT OF THE LOCAL COASTAL PROGRAM
When the Poinsettia Properties Specific Plan was approved the finding was made that the
specific plan was consistent with the Mello II Segment of the Carlsbad Local Coastal Program.
That finding was based on the fact that the specific plan provided the following: 1) visitor -
serving facilities at the intersection of Carlsbad Boulevard and Ponto Road and on Avenida
Encinas at the Poinsettia Rail Station; 2) subsequent discretionary reviews to ensure quality
development; 3) roadway improvements on Poinsettia Lane to Carlsbad Boulevard (including
Poinsettia Bridge); 4) drainage improvements throughout the Specific Plan neighborhoods; and
5) payment of mitigation fees for the conversion of designated coastal agricultural lands to urban
uses. Based on this implementation and consistency relationship between the Poinsettia
Properties Specific Plan and the Mello II Segment of the LCP, it can be assumed that if the
proposed project is consistent with the Specific Plan, the project is also consistent with the Mello
II Segment of the LCP.
C. POINSETTIA PROPERTIES SPECIFIC PLAN (underlying RD-M Zone)
The Specific Plan requires development in PA 5 to comply with the standards of the RD-M zone
unless otherwise specified. Development is also required to comply with standards and design
guidelines outlined in the Specific Plan. As discussed below, the proposed project is consistent
with all specific plan and zoning requirements.
The Specific Plan designates Planning Area 5 (PA 5) as the affordable housing site for the entire
specific plan area due to its proximity to the transit station, commercial/retail uses, and to focus
on increased density within 500 feet of the transit station. The maximum number of units
allowed on this site is 114. Under transit - oriented development principles, PA 5 should develop
near a density of 20 residential units per acre. The proposed project is consistent with this
density at a proposed density of 19 du/ac and a total of 92 units. For further discussion of the
affordable housing segment of the project, please refer to Section D, page 5. As illustrated in
Table 1 below, the project is also consistent with all development standards and design

The project also complies with all other design and improvement criteria of the specific plan.
Primary access to the project will be from the west side of the project site with a secondary
access located on the south side of the development. All improvements are required to be
constructed by the developer to public street width standards with full curb, gutters, sidewalks,
underground utilities sidewalks, medians, tree wells, landscaping, street lights and fire hydrants
as shown on the site development plan or as included as conditions of approval. The proposed
street is adequate to handle all traffic generated fi-om the subject site as well as from the adjacent
planning area.
D. INCLUSIONARY HOUSING REQUIREMENTS (Chapter 21.85 of the Carlsbad
Municipal Code)
As noted above, the proposed project is subject to the Inclusionary Housing Ordinance
specifically to the affordable housing requirements required by the Specific Plan for units to be
restricted to and affordable to lower income households. Section 21.53.120 of the Zoning
Ordinance requires City Council approval of a site development plan for multi-family affordable
projects of 51 or more units based on findings that the project is consistent with the underlying
zoning/specific plan and in conformance with General Plan policies and goals (see Section A
above). The Poinsettia Properties Affordable Housing Agreement was approved by the City
Council on December 8, 1998. This agreement included an exemption of the Public Facility Fee
requirements, a construction loan in the amount of $920,000 from the City’s Housing Trust
Fund. The City also agreed to the issuance of $6.5 million of tax-exempt revenue bonds. Bridge
Housing Corporation, developer of the highly successful Villa Loma development, is the general
partner of the applicant, HSL/BP Michan, and will be responsible for construction, maintenance
and operation of the future Poinsettia Gardens Apartments.
SDP 98-09/CDP 98-38 - POINSETTIA PROPERTIES PA 5 March 17,1999
Page 6
within the Specific Plan boundaries. If the developer constructs more affordable units than he
needs to meet his affordable housing obligation, he will not be eligible to “sell” these units to
another developer; however, the affordable housing agreement for the Poinsettia Properties
Specific Plan allows any excess affordable units to be applied to meet the affordable housing
obligations for Planning Area 6.
The project complies with the Inclusionaty Housing provisions of Chapter 21.85 of the
Municipal Code as demonstrated below:

E. GROWTH MANAGEMENT
An amendment to the Local Facilities Management Plan for Zone 22 was approved concurrently
with the Poinsettia Properties Specific Plan. At that time, all facility impacts were analyzed and
it was determined that all facilities would be provided, prior to or concurrent with need, pursuant
to the facilities performance standards of Growth Management. Since the proposed development
is consistent with the Specific Plan in which all facilities were determined to be in compliance
with adopted performance standards, no further growth management analysis is necessary. All

E. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The proposed project was included in the Program EIR (EIR 96-10) prepared for the Poinsettia
Properties Specific Plan, certified in January 1998. The Program EIR addressed subsequent
discretionary approvals of the specific plan, including actions such as tentative maps, site
development plans and coastal development permits. No further CEQA compliance was
required for those activities having no effect beyond those previously analyzed in the Program
EIR. As noted above, the proposed project is still consistent with the land uses, design
guidelines and facility improvements required in the specific plan. No new impacts are
anticipated as a result of this action and no new mitigation measures are necessary, therefore, no
further environmental review is required. The Planning Director determined that the proposed
subdivision is pursuant to and in conformance with Specific Plan 2 10 for which a Program EIR was prepared and certified. No additional environmental impacts will be created by the proposed

anticipated as a result of this action and no new mitigation measures are necessary, therefore, no
further environmental review is required. The Planning Director determined that the proposed
subdivision is pursuant to and in conformance with Specific Plan 210 for which a Program EIR
was prepared and certified. No additional environmental impacts will be created by the proposed
subdivision, therefore, the project is exempt under Section 15 182 of the California
Environmental Quality Act.

6. SDP 96-09/CDP 96-36 - POINSETTIA PROPERTIES PA 5 - Request for approval of a Site
Development Plan and Coastal Development Permit to construct 92 affordable apartments near
the northwest corner of Avenida Encinas and Poinsettia Lane in Local Facilities Management
Zone 22.
Assistant Planning Director, Gary Wayne introduced the item and announced that the Commission’s
action on this item is not final and will be forwarded to the City Council for its consideration. Mr. Wayne
introduced Principal Planner Adrienne Landers who described the project and presented the staff report
as follows: This is a request for a Site Development Plan and a Coastal Development Permit to construct
92 affordable apartments near the northwest corner of Avenida Encinas and Poinsettia Lane. The subject
site is located in Planning Area 5 of the Poinsettia Properties Specific Plan with Avenida Encinas and
Interstate Highway 5 to the east, Poinsettia Lane to the south, and the transit station to the west. The
Specific Plan was designed to be a transit oriented development and this means that development within
the plan should have a strong pedestrian focus to encourage use of the nearby transit station. Planning
Area 5 was designated to provide the affordable housing obligation for the entire specific plan due to its
location near the transit station and to implement the TOD principle to place increased density within 500
feet of the transit station. The project features 92 units with 3-16-plexes, 3-i2-plexes, and I-8-plex. Each
of these buildings is 35 feet in height and is two-stories. All of the units have a front porch/patio area or a
balcony, with 32 units having direct access to the street and the nearby mixed use area. The complex is
designed around a large interior neighborhood area. This common space includes a recreation building
with a fireplace, common room, and laundry facilities. Ample recreation opportunities are also provided for
residents of all ages, including a swimming pool, changing rooms, tot lot, a passive grassy area for
seniors, a basketball half-court, a large active open play area, and ample benches and tables sprinkled
throughout the site. Also, there will be 192 required parking spaces provided, on-site, with other on-street
parking which is not required. The project is subject to and is consistent with all of the policies and
regulations of the General Plan, the Mello II Segment of the LCP, the Poinsettia Properties Specific Plan
including the underlying RDM zone, the lnclusionary Housing Ordinance, and the Growth Management
Ordinance. The project is determined to be in compliance with the General Plan and the Local Coastal
MINUTES
PLANNING COMMISSION March 17, 1999
Program if development is consistent with the Specific Plan. The proposal is consistent, in that the 92
units being proposed are within the maximum of 114 units allowed by the Specific Plan for this planning
area. Required setbacks have been provided at 30 feet with a 20 foot landscaped parkway on Avenida
Encinas and a meandering sidewalk. There is also a IO foot setback provided on the interior street for the
front of the units facing the street. Pedestrian focus is an important factor in the development of the
Specific Plan and that has been achieved by orienting 33% of the units with direct access to the public
street. Also, the applicant has created broad pedestrian connections to the mixed use area at the main
entry of the project. A half-width street dedication is a condition for future installation on Avenida Encinas.
Other improvements related to sewer, water and drainage have been conditioned to be installed
concurrent with construction in compliance with City standards and the Zone 22 LFMP. The inclusionary
housing requirements have been met through the provision of the on-site units. The Code requires 10%
of the units to be S-bedroom. As indicated on the exhibit, 36 units (39%) are l-bedroom, 48% are 2-
bedroom, and 12 units (13%) are 3-bedroom, all being in compliance with the Code. The developer has
not requested either a density bonus or a standards reduction. However, a direct financial incentive was
granted by the City Council when they recently approved the Affordable Housing Agreement. At that time
they allowed an exemption from PFF fees, a $920,000 construction loan, and the issuance of $6.5 million
dollars of tax exempt revenue bonds. The developer of the Villa Loma Project, Bridge Housing
Corporation, will be responsible for the construction, maintenance, and operation of this development.
Since the project is in compliance with all of the regulations, staff recommends approval of Site
Development Plan 98-09 and Coastal Development Permit 98-38. This project is also subject to the
findings and conditions that were mentioned earlier in Item #5. The developer has had the opportunity to
review them. There is a revision to Condition No. 20, Resolution No. 4514, which addresses the storage
of household goods, sporting equipment, etc., on the patios and balconies. That condition has been
strengthened by requesting that the management company, through a condition of a lease or rental
agreement, stipulate that there be no storage of this type of equipment on the patio areas.
Commissioner Welshons asked Mr. Wojcik what the distance is between the entrance at Street A and
Avenida Encinas to the transit center. Regarding the parcel located on the corner of Street A and Avenida Encinas, she asked Ms. Landers where people will take access to get into that property.
Ms. Landers replied that the driveways are not shown at this time and indicated on the exhibit where the
future driveways will be located. She also stated that there will be driveways to Planning Area 6 that will
be detailed at a future date.
Regarding Planning Area 6, Commissioner Welshons asked if people will have pedestrian access to the
transit center or will their only access be by vehicle.
Ms. Landers replied that there are several access points planned. However, it does not appear that
Planning Area 6 will have a direct access. She explained that only conceptual plans are available so it is
not possible to give specifics regarding access points from the other planning areas. However, the
developer is proposing (with staffs support) mixed use development facing the street with parking in the
rear. There will be some type of linkage between the transit center and Planning Area 6. There will also
be a pedestrian linkage.
In response to Commissioner Welshon’s question regarding distance, Mr. Wojcik stated that the entrance
meets the 600 foot intersection spacing requirement with a minimum of 600 feet.
Applicant Doug Avis, 5055 Avenida Encinas, Carlsbad, concurred with the staff report and stated
acceptance of the revision of Condition No. 20, Resolution 4514. Regarding new Finding No. 18, and new
Condition No. 22, Mr. Avis stated that the larger project is a transit-oriented project which basically is
trying to emphasize pedestrian use and de-emphasize the use of the automobile. Most of the single-
family product have porches and are alley loaded which is reminiscent of the neo-traditional neighborhood
before the car was the primary source of transportation. He pointed out that it is difficult to take an
apartment project and make it look like it is a lot of old houses in a single family neighborhood but they
have been able to get many of the units out on the street rather than the typical situation of having parking
neat the street. In addition, the exterior will be other than stucco and will give the project a “beach” look
rather than the typical exterior finishes. Mr. Avis also brought attention to the fact that many of the
projects, in Carlsbad, have mitigated their affordable housing requirement off-site and this project,
because this project is so close to the transit center and in an attempt to increase densities near the
MINUTES
I/ a-

PLANNING COMMISSION March 17, 1999 Page 8
station, has chosen to put the affordable project within the Specific Plan area. In response to the
questions regarding access to the transit station through Planning Area 6, Mr. Avis indicated the access
points (both vehicular and pedestrian) on the exhibit. Mr. Avis further stated that they hope to be coming
back before the Commission, in the next few months, with a mixed use project which will primarily consist
of retail/office uses downstairs with residential use upstairs, in accordance with the Specific Plan. In
response to the new addendum regarding the traffic impacts at Palomar Airport Road and El Camino Real,
Mr. Avis stated that he understands that the Growth Management Plan is the authority for dealing with
traffic impacts. He stated they have been supporters of the Growth Management Plan since it’s inception,
and based upon the way Carlsbad is growing, the plan is working. He stated that this is an appropriate
condition and the 20% factor as mentioned by the Engineer, Bob Wojcik, is something they will be looking
at very closely as it relates to the ultimate distribution of traffic in accordance with the EIR and whether or
not this project actually will trigger that 20% based upon the project distribution and their certified EIR.
Commissioner Compas asked Mr. Avis why they reduced the number of affordable units from 114 to 92.
Mr. Avis replied that when they did their Specific Plan they had not laid out subdivisions or products in the
balance of the area. As usually happens to meet the City’s requirements, the number of units goes down.
He explained that the Specific Plan is the outside bubble of densities, not only in single-family but also in
multi-family projects. As they planned and received approvals on the single-family portions of the overall
project, the number of units needed to mitigate was reduced. He added that they are actually building
more units than is required to mitigate the single family project, but there is also an economic model under
which the number of units can be too few for an apartment project to be effective. Mr. Avis further stated
that 92 units appears to be the number that will operate efficiently and effectively as an apartment project.
Commissioner Savary questioned Mr. Avis regarding the exterior use of what appears to be wood and the
difficulties of maintenance attached to the use of wood in this area. She also stated that she feels that
long term maintenance in this coastal area is very important and she is quite concerned about it.
Mr. Avis replied that staff indicated that they would like to see the exterior finishes done in something other
than stucco. However, Bridge Housing was not terribly interested in using wood because of the
maintenance problems and sought alternatives. In their search for better materials they found a number
of high quality wood substitute products which are not wood but are synthetic products that look as good
or better than wood. These products have a better weathering ability than stucco and these are the
products they will be working with. Mr. Avis further stated that they will be bringing samples of the actual
materials to staff at a future date.
Commissioner Savary asked Mr. Avis why they have not used the same pavement treatment at the
southern driveway, as they have at the western driveway, to make the project look more attractive.
Mr. Avis replied that it is probably because no one stated that as a requirement.
Commissioner Savary asked if Mr. Avis would accept a condition requiring the same, more decorative,
pavement treatment and he replied that he would accept such a condition.
Regarding revised Condition No. 20, Resolution 4514, Commissioner Welshons stated that because it is
so close to the beach and because there may be a number of residents owning surfboards, stated that
she feels the condition may be too restrictive and asked what experience Bridge Housing has had in that
regard.
Mr. Avis deferred that question to the Bridge Housing representative but stated that the reason they chose
Bridge for this project is that because they will be building and selling single-family homes immediately
adjacent to this project and appearance is very important.
Brad Woodland, representing Bridge Housing, stated that they have no problem with the revised condition.
He pointed out that while the condition allows barbecues, the management company will not allow them.
While this sounds very restrictive, Mr. Woodland stated that it is important to have these restrictions and
they are strictly enforced.
Commissioner Welshons suggested that since management will not allow barbecues, perhaps barbecues
MINUTES
C
PLANNING COMMISSION March 17, 1999 Page 9
should be removed from the exception in the condition.
Mr. Woodland responded by stating that the condition, as revised, is less restrictive than their lease.
However, if the Commission wishes to further revise the condition, Bridge Housing would concur.
Chairperson Heineman opened Public Testimony and offered the invitation to speak. Seeing no one
wishing to testify, Chairperson Heineman closed Public Testimony.
With regard to Mr. Avis’ discussion of new Condition No. 22, Assistant City Attorney Rich Rudolf stated
that the basis for new Condition No, 22 is dual. It is not only Growth Management but is also CEQA and
they overlap each other. He went on to state that he wished to make it clear to both Mr. Avis, the
Commission, and the public, that the 20% threshold is the only potential applicable standard and in looking
at both the applications to the Growth Management Ordinance and CEQA, that may result in a different
methodology and the City is not relying on just the 20%.
