Neighborhoods 1.4 and 1.7 as recommended for adoption and approval by the Planning
Commission.
2005-071
ITEM EXPLANATION:
On February 16, 2005, the Planning Commission conducted a public hearing for a residential
subdivision and a minor amendment to the Villages of La Costa Master Plan. Neighborhoods 1.4
and 1.7 (CT 04-15/PUD 04-13) require approval by the City Council since the subdivision contains
more than 50 residential lots. The Minor Master Plan- Amendment [MP 98-01(D)] to locate an
elementary school site on a portion of Neighborhood 1.7 and designate the areas as School Area 1.4, relocate a common recreation lot from Neighborhood 1.7 to Neighborhood 1.6, adjust the
maximum number of residential lots allowed in Neighborhood 1.7 to 85 (location of the school site
eliminated 42 residential lots), and related adjustments to the Master Plan exhibits was approved by
the Planning Commission and is final unless appealed to the City Council. No appeals were received
For this project within the 10-day appeal period.
The Villages of La Costa Greens Neighborhoods 1.4 and 1.7 consist of the subdivision of 41.4 acres
into 71 single-family residential lots with a minimum lot size of 5,000 square feet, 7 open space lots,
and one school site lot. In addition to the Tentative Tract Map, a Planned Development Permit is
required by the Master Plan to allow for lots less than 7,500 square feet. The Master Plan specifically
identified Neighborhood 1.7 as a subdivision of 5,000 square foot residential lots. Architectural
review of the homes will be presented to the City Council at a later date as an amendment to the
PUD.
The Planning Commission discussed the merits of all applications, and voted 5-0-0 (Segall and
Baker Absent) to recommend approval of the project to the City Council.
4 full disclosure of the Planning Commission’s discussion for both Neighborhoods 1.4 and 1.7 and a
2omplete description and staff analysis of the project is included in the attached minutes and staff
-eport to the Planning Commission.
ENVIRONMENTAL:
The proposed project has been reviewed pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act
[CEQA). Staff prepared an initial study for the project and concluded that no potentially significant
mpacts would result with the implementation of the project that were not previously examined and
svaluated in the Final Program Environmental Impact Report for the Villages of La Costa Master
Plan MP 98-01 (EIR 98-07), dated October 23, 2001. EIR 98-07 evaluates the potential
I
PAGE 2 OF AGENDA BILL NO. 18,023
environmental effects of the development and operation of the “Villages of La Costa Master Plan”
and associated actions inclusive of the proposed planning area project reviewed here.
The City Council certified EIR 98-07 on October 23, 2001. At that time CEQA Findings of Fact, a
Statement of Overriding Considerations, and a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program were
approved. All mitigation measures contained in the adopted Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting
Program from EIR 98-07 applicable to the proposed project have been completed, incorporated into
the project design or are required as conditions of approval for the project. Mitigation Measure 4.8-
1A required an acoustical analysis for certain areas of the Master Plan to identify all necessary noise
control requirements on project plans necessary to meet the City of Carlsbad interior and exterior
noise levels. The required study was provided and the plans have incorporated noise walls where
appropriate. The EIR 98-07 “Findings of Fact and Statement of Overriding Considerations” applies
to all subsequent projects covered by the Villages of La Costa Master Plan Final Program EIR.
The proposed activities would have no effects beyond those analyzed in the program EIR, as they
are a part of the program analyzed earlier. This project is within the scope of Final Program EIR 98-
07 and no further CEQA compliance is required. EIR 98-07 and the initial study prepared for the
project are available at the Planning Department.
FISCAL IMPACT:
No fiscal impacts have been identified.

11. INTRODUCTION
The proposed project consists of a minor amendment to the Villages of La Costa Master Plan
(VLCMP) and a proposal for a Tentative Tract Map and Planned Unit Development (Pm>
within Neighborhoods 1.4 and 1.7 of the La Costa Greens area of the VLCMP. The Master Plan
amendment is a follow-up action to the Carlsbad Unified School District’s acquisition of
property for an elementary school site withm Neighborhood 1.7 and relocation of a shared
recreation lot for both Neighborhoods 1.6 and 1.7 from Neighborhood 1.7 to Neighborhood 1.6.
Neighborhood 1.7 contains 41.4 acres and will be subdivided into 71 residential lots with a
minimum lot size of 5,000 square feet, 8 open space lots, and a single 12.7-acre lot for the
Carlsbad Unified School District. This lot will become the location of the elementary school site
and will be designated as School Area 1.4. A Planned Unit Development permit (PUD) is
required for Neighborhood 1.7 since the proposal includes lots less than 7,500 square feet.
Architectural plans for the residences are not proposed at this time and will require approval at a
future date of a PUD amendment. The project complies with City standards and all necessary

111. PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND
Background
On October 23,2001, the City Council certified the Final Program ER, approved the Villages of
La Costa Master Plan, a Master Tentative Tract Map and related applications for the Villages of
La Costa project. The Master Plan establishes the permitted uses, development standards, and
design criteria for each neighborhood as well as the development review process to be used.
Master Tentative Tract Map CT 99-03 subdivided the area into open space areas and established
the neighborhood development area boundaries. A final map has been recorded for the La Costa
Greens area. Plans for mass grading and circulation element roadway improvements have been
approved. This mass grading is currently underway, as well as the roadway improvements of
Poinsettia Lane and Alicante Road.
Proiect Description
The site is located north of Poinsettia Lane on the east side of Alicante Road within the Villages
of La Costa Master Plan and the Zone 10 Local Facilities Management Plan. Development of
the neighborhood requires mer subdivision of the large neighborhood planning area lots
created by Master Tentative Tract Map CT 99-03, along with finish grading for the site and
inhstructure improvements. Neighborhood 1.7 is west of Alicante Road and Neighborhood 1.6.
Bressi Ranch Planning Area 11 , being developed by Barratt Homes is to the north, Bressi Ranch
Planning Area 12 is to the east, and Poinsettia Lane runs along the entire southerly property line.
The proposed project includes the applications summarized below in Table 1. In addition to the
discretionary actions, a Minor Master Plan Amendment MP 98-01(D), pursuant to Section 2.5.2
of the Villages La Costa Master Plan is being processed to locate an elementary school site on a
portion of Neighborhood 1.7 and designate the area as School Area 1.4; to relocate a shared
recreation facility lot for Neighborhood 1.6 and 1.7 fiom Neighborhood 1.7 to Neighborhood
1.6; and modify text and graphics in the Villages of La Costa Master Plan to reflect the
relocations. Action taken on the maps will be contingent on the action taken on the Minor
Master Plan Amendment.

Along with the proposed Tentative Tract Map, a PUD is required by the Master Plan to allow for
lots less than 7,500 square feet in Neighborhood 1.7.
Land Use
Architectural plans and plotting for the subdivision will require discretionary approval.
However, the Master Plan does allow this review to be postponed to a future date. To determine
compliance with the provisions of the Master Plan for future plotting and architecture, an
amendment to the Planned Unit Development Permit (PUD 04-13) will be required.

Residential Low-Medium Density (RLM) General Plan Land Use Designation;
Villages of La Costa Master Plan (MP 98-01);
Planned Development Regulations (Chapter 21.45 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code);
Subdivision Ordinance (Title 20 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code); and
Growth Management Regulations (Zone 10 Local Facilities Management Plan).
The recommendation for approval of this project was developed by analyzing the project’s
consistency with the applicable regulations and policies. The project’s compliance with each of
the above regulations is discussed in detail in the sections below.
A. General Plan
The General Plan designation for Neighborhood 1.7 is Residential Low-Medium Density (RLM).
The RLM designation allows single-family residential development at a range of 0-4 dwelling
units per acre (ddac). The Villages of La Costa Master Plan limits the maximum number of
dwelling units for each neighborhood. The density in Neighborhood 1.7 is 2.47 ddac with 71
units proposed. The average density of all neighborhoods throughout the Greens is 2.70 ddac.
The Villages of La Costa Master Plan was found to comply with all applicable General Plan
Goals, Objectives and Policies including the Housing Element. This project is in conformance
with the Master Plan and therefore is also in compliance with the General Plan. The project
complies with Elements of the General Plan as outlined in Table 2 below.

area. The units were then distributed among the neighborhoods and the description of each neighborhood contains the maximum allowable units. Since the proposed number of units within each Neighborhood
will not exceed the number identified in the Master Plan, the density of the subject neighborhood is
consistent with the General Plan.
B. Villages of La Costa Master Plan (MP 98-01(C))
The project is within the La Costa Greens Village of the Villages of La Costa Master Plan. The
Master Plan maps and text define the allowable type and intensity of land uses in each village
and provides detailed development and design standards, requirements, development phasing and
timing, and the method by which the Master Plan will be implemented.
Master Plan Amendment 98-01 CD)
A Minor Master Plan Amendment is necessary to accompany these applications. The Carlsbad
Unified School District is acquiring 12.7 acres within Neighborhood 1.7 for an elementary
school site. The elementary school site is therefore being formally located within the Master
Plan at th~s new location and will be designated as School Area 1.4.

In addition, a combined recreation facility for Neighborhoods 1.6 and 1.7 was originally required
to be provided in Neighborhood 1.7. However, since the development of an elementary school
by the Carlsbad Unified School District will greatly reduce the overall size and scope of
Neighborhood 1.7, a combined recreation facility can be better provided for in Neighborhood
1.6.
The extent of the Master Plan Amendment consists of text and graphic changes to reflect the
final location of the school and the combined recreation area. All of the text and graphic exhibits
are included as attachments to the Master Plan Amendment resolution.

The Master Plan designates Neighborhood 1.7 for single-family detached homes. The minimum
lot size and lot width for each neighborhood will be evaluated in the Subdivision Section of this
report. The pad elevations proposed on the tentative tract map substantially conform with the
conceptual grading and lotting study included in the Master Plan.
The Master Plan includes special provisions applicable to specific neighborhoods. The special
provisions applicable to Neighborhood 1.7 include noise attenuation along Poinsettia Lane if
required by a noise analysis, provision of a shared recreation facility in Neighborhood 1.7,
landscaping and lighting compatibility with adjacent open space lot 1 .B, the provision of a Fire
Protection Zone, and special landscap-e treatment along Poinsettia Lane and between the existing
sewer pump station and the subdivision.
A noise analysis was conducted and noise attenuation is required for lots along Poinsettia Lane
in Neighborhood 1.7. The attenuation is provided in the form of six-foot decorative block walls.
A relocated shared recreation facility is proposed in Neighborhood 1.6. Relocating the shared
facility to Neighborhood 1.6 is within the scope of the Minor Master Plan Amendment Mp 98-
Ol(D). The recreation facility is part of the 1.6 Neighborhood and is pending a public hearing
before the Planning Commission. Landscaping is proposed on all manufactured slopes including
those contiguous to Open Space lots, Poinsettia Lane and the existing sewer lift station. The type
of landscaping shown is a mixture of “naturalizing” shrubs and ground cover. No lighting is
proposed other than street lights. Fire zones meeting the standards of City of Carlsbad
Landscape Manual are identified on the conceptual landscape plans.
C. Planned Development Regulations
The Villages of La Costa Master Plan contains development standards for a variety of lot sizes
and product types. Generally, lots with a minimum lot size of 7,500 square feet or greater are
not required to comply with the Planned Development standards. However, Neighborhood 1.7
has lots that are a minimum 5,000 square feet in size and therefore requires approval of a
Planned Unit Development. Certain Master Plan standards differ fi-om those adopted in
Municipal Code Chapter 21.45 (the Planned Development Ordinance). The Master Plan
provides that the Planned Development Ordinance shall be used unless otherwise modified in the
Master Plan.
No dwelling units are proposed with this tentative map. Therefore, compliance with the Planned
Development and Master Plan regulations will be limited to those that are applicable only to the
subdivision of the property. Table 4 demonstrates the project’s compliance with the required
standards.

D. Subdivision Ordinance
The Engineering Department has reviewed the proposed project and has concluded that the
subdivision complies with all applicable requirements of the Subdivision Map Act and the City’s
Subdivision Ordinance. All major subdivision design criteria have been complied with including
the minimum lot depth of 90 feet, provision of public access, required street fiontage, minimum
lot area, and the design of the project so that individual residential lots do not have street
fiontage or access to circulation element roads.
The project is consistent with and satisfies all requirements of the General Plan, the Villages of
La Costa Master Plan and Title 21. The minimum required lot size for Neighborhood 1.7 is
5,000 square feet. Each of the proposed residential lots meets the applicable minimum lot area
and lot width required by the Master Plan.
The developer will be required to offer various dedications (e.g., drainage easements, street
right-of-way) and install street lights and utility improvements, including but not limited to
curbs, gutters, sidewalks, landscaping, street trees, sewer facilities, drainage facilities, fire
hydrants, and street lights.
E. Growth Management
The subdivision is located within Local Facilities Management Zone 10 in the southeast quadrant
of the City. The impacts on public facilities created by the subdivision, and its compliance with
the adopted performance standards, are summarized in Table 5 below.

The existing Master Plan allocated 127 dwelling units to the entire 41.4-acre Neighborhood 1.7.
Forty-two (42) of these 127 units were originally allocated to the area containing the 12.7-acre
School Site 1.4. Upon approval of MP 98-01(D), the maximum residential unit allowance in the
remaining 28.7 acres of Neighborhood 1.7 will be 85 dwelling units. The 71 unit proposal for
Neighborhood 1.7 will therefore be 14 units below the new Neighborhood 1.7 allowance of the

V. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The proposed project has been reviewed pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act
(CEQA). Staff prepared an initial study for the project and concluded that no potentially
significant impacts would result with the implementation of the project that was not previously
examined and evaluated in the Final Program Environmental Impact Report for the Villages of
La Costa Master Plan MP 98-01 (EIR 98-07), dated October 23, 2001. EIR 98-07 evaluates the
potential environmental effects of the development and operation of the “Villages of La Costa
Master Plan” and associated actions inclusive of the proposed planning area project reviewed
here.
The City Council certified EIR 98-07 on October 23,2001. At that time CEQA Findings of Fact,
a Statement of Overriding Considerations, and a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program
were approved. All mitigation measures contained in the adopted Mitigation Monitoring and
Reporting Program from EIR 98-07 applicable to the proposed Planning Area project have been
completed, incorporated into the project design or are required as conditions of approval for the
project. Mitigation Measure 4.8-1A required an acoustical analysis for certain areas of the
Master Plan to identify all necessary noise control requirements on project plans necessary to
meet the City of Carlsbad interior and exterior noise levels. The required studies were provided
and the plans have incorporated noise walls where appropriate. The EIR 98-07 “Findings of Fact

and Statement of Overriding Considerations” applies to all subsequent projects covered by the
Villages of La Costa Master Plan Final Program ElR.
The proposed activities would have no effects beyond those analyzed in the program EIR, as
they are a part of the program analyzed earlier. The total number of Master Plan units evaluated
in EIR 98-07 will not be increased. This project is within the scope of Final Program ElR 98-07
and no Mer CEQA compliance is required. EIR 98-07 and the initial study for the application
are available at the Planning Department.

GENERAL PLAN AND
LAND USE PROVISIONS
2.4.4 Community Facilities
Residential objectives B.4 and C.12 of the Land Use Element of the
General Plan call for Master Plan communities to provide, within the
development area, adequate areas to meet some social5uman service
needs. Typical Community Facilities which meet these needs might
include day care, worship, youth and senior citizen activities, or
community meeting halls. Village Community Facilities area
requirements are: La Costa Greens, 3.15 acres; La Costa Ridge, 1.63
acres; and La Costa Oaks, 3.30 acres. A 2-acre minimum daycare site is
also required in addition to the community facilities acreage previously
mentioned.
2.4.5 School Site
The Master Plan identifies one elementary school site in La Costa
Greens. The school site is located to the east of Alicante Road and north
of Poinsettia Lane. The site is provided in the event the Carlsbad Unified
School District determines that an additional elementary school is
necessary to service the area.
2.4.6 Street System
Arterial access to the Villages of La Costa is illustrated on Exhibit 2-1,
General Plan Land Use. Primary access to La Costa Greens is provided
by El Camino Real, Alga Road, and Poinsettia Lane, which will be
extended through the village. Access to La Costa Ridge will be provided
by Alga Road, El Fuerte, Melrose Drive, and Rancho Santa Fe Road.
Primary access to La Costa Oaks will be via Rancho Santa Fe Road and
La Costa Avenue. Regional circulation and street standards are further
described in Section 4.3, Circulation.

Village, whichever occurs first. Refer to Section 1.7 of the.
Master Plan for additional HCP/OMSP information.
2. Open Space for the Managed Production of Resources
This area is not currently being used for agricultural purposes
and has not been used in the recent past for agricultural
purposes. No portion of the La Costa Greens Village will be
reserved for the production of agricultural resources by this
Master Plan.
3. Open Space for Outdoor Recreation
The La Costa Greens Village Development Plan establishes
Park Area 1.5 in the central portion of the La Costa Greens
Village. The approximate 34.4-acre community park is located
just north of Poinsettia Lane and is bounded on the east by
Alicante Road and portions of the HCP/OMSP conserved
habitat on the west and north sides.
School playgrounds will be available in conjunction with the
development of the school site within PA 1.4. Playgrounds
will be included as part of the project Open Space if the site is
developed.
Recreation areas will be constructed per the requirements of
the Planned Development Ordinance, Section 21.45 of the
Carlsbad Municipal Code and as specified in the Development
Standards for neighborhoods requiring the approval of a
Planned Development Permit (with lots under 7,500 square
feet) or a Condominium Permit. The total required recreation
area is 200-square-feet per dwelling unit. This may be
comprised of 100 square feet per dwelling unit of common
active recreation area and 100 square feet of private passive
recreation area. Private yards with a minimum dimension of
15 feet, balconies, decks and patios may satisfy the private
recreation area requirement.
Common recreation areas are discussed further in Section 5.2.7

of this Master Plan. A total of 674 “eligible units” in La Costa
Greens results in a requirement of 1.55 acres of common
recreation areas. A total of 7 common recreation areas will be
provided within the La Costa Greens Neighborhoods. The
precise size and location of each facility will be determined at
the time of Planned Development Permit or Condominium
Permit approval. The exact details of landscaping on open
space lots shall be approved by the Planning Director.
In addition to the areas listed above, lands associated with the
trail system discussed in Section 5.2.6 of this chapter are
considered outdoor recreation areas.
4. Open Space for Public Health and Safety
All .common maintained slope areas will be maintained as open
space. Each neighborhood shall provide for dedication of open
space easements or common area lots for slope maintenance
purposes at the time of final map approval for that
neighborhood.
A Fire Protection Plan shall be approved by the Fire
Department for any area designated as a Fire Protection Zone
on one of the neighborhood development plans prior to the
approval of the tentative subdivision map for the affected
neighborhood. The Master Plan Fire Protection Plan is
described in Section 4.7.9. A minimum of 60 feet shall be
provided within the Fire Protection Zone between the edge of
structure and the edge of the HCP/Open Space lots with
existing native vegetation.
5. Open Space Maintenance
Maintenance responsibilities for open space areas of La Costa
Greens are described by Exhibit 5-3, Maintenance Areas.
Maintenance responsibilities are divided into three categories.
Conserved Habitat areas defined by the HCP/OMSP (Open
Space Areas 1.A, 1.B, 1.C, l.D, 1.E, 1.F and 1.1) shall be
maintained by an approved conservation entity. Natural areas,

5.4 La Costa Greens Village Phasing Plan
Implementation of the La Costa Greens Village Development Plan will be
accomplished through a multiple phase plan. The objective of the La Costa
Greens Village Phasing Plan is to coordinate a logical sequence and pattern of
residential development and habitat conservation with the provision of public
facilities and services as established by the Zone 10 Local Facilities
Management Plan. All public facility performance standards identified in the
Zone 10 Local Facilities Management Plan must be complied with by each
individual development phase. The boundaries of the La Costa Greens
development phases are shown on Exhibit 5-10, La Costa Greens Village
Phasing Plan.
The La Costa Greens Village Phasing Plan divides the Village into four
development phases: Phase 1 (Southeast) will consist of Neighborhoods 1.8
through 1.15 and the availability of Park Area 1.5; Phase 2 (Southwest) will
consist of the development of Neighborhoods 1.16, and 1.17; Phase 3
(Northwest) development will include Neighborhoods 1.1, 1.2, and 1.3; Phase
4 (Northeast) development will add Neighborhoods 1.6, 1.7 and School Area
1.4. Each phase of the Development Plan can be graded independently except
for grading necessary to accommodate the major roadways.
The affordable housing site will require an affordable housing agreement and
a Site Development Permit approval prior to recordation of the first
neighborhood Final Map. Construction of the affordable housing units will be
provided in relation to the timing of the market-rate units. The affordable
housing agreement will contain the phasing requirements for the affordable
units.
The grading and construction of Poinsettia Lane and Alicante Road (southern
section from Alga Road to the access for the park site) will be provided
concurrent with Phase 1 of the La Costa Greens development.
A recreational vehicle storage site (or temporary facility) must be provided
prior to the occupancy of residential units within the planned development
neighborhoods. A temporary facility may serve the initial neighborhood
development phasing until the final facility is completed.

5.7 La Costa Greens Development Standards
5.7.1 Introduction
The La Costa Greens Village is composed of a variety of residential
products ranging fiom 1 1,000-square-foot lots for single-family
detached dwellings to townhomes and multi-family residences with
each product being discretely designed within 13 distinct
Neighborhoods. These residential products are located in
Neighborhoods 1.3 and 1.6 through 1.17. Additionally, Neighborhood
1.1 has been established for Planned-Industrial uses and Neighborhood
1.2 is planned for Community Facilities. Area 1.2 also includes a
permanent Recreational Vehicle storage facility. It is intended that
day-care facilities, places of worship, youth andor senior center
activities, and other community facilities may be situated on the
Community Facilities parcel. Active recreation is provided by a
Community Park, located in Park Area 1.5, and an elementary school
is expected to be constructed in School Area 1.4.
These 17 Neighborhoods are encompassed within a vast Habitat
Conservation Plan area, which itself is divided into seven individual
Open Space Areas. These HCP Open Space Areas are located in Open
Space Areas A through F and I. No residential, commercial or
industrial development will occur in any of these HCP Open Space
Areas. HCP Open Space Areas will remain in their natural state
except for the provision of road, drainage and utility crossings as well
as City-Wide or Local Pedestrian Trails as detailed in Section 5.2.6.
In addition to the HCP Open Space Areas, Open Space Areas l.G and
1 .H provide for utility corridors.
Specific development standards and criteria for industrial, commercial
and residential uses are detailed in Section 5.7.3 below, and Open
Space Area standards and criteria are provided in the Open Space Area

Planning Commission Minutes Page 3 DRAFT EXHIBIT 5 February 16,2005
Vice Chairperson Montgomery closed the public hearing and asked Mr. Neu to introduce the next item.
4. MP 98-01(D)/CT 04-15/PUD 04-13 - VILLAGES OF LA COSTA - GREENS
NEIGHBORHOODS 1.4 & 1.7 - Request for a determination that the project is within the
scope of the previously certified Villages of La Costa Program EIR and that the Program
EIR adequately describes the activity for the purposes of CEQA; and 1) approval of a
Minor Master Plan Amendment to locate an elementary school site on a portion of
Neighborhood 1.7 and designate the area as School Area 1.4; relocate a shared
recreation facility lot for Neighborhoods 1.6 and 1.7 from Neighborhood 1.7 to
Neighborhood 1.6; and modify text and graphics in the Villages of La Costa Master Plan
to reflect these actions; and 2) a recommendation for approval of a Tentative Tract Map
and Planned Unit Development for 71 residential lots and 8 open space lots for
Neighborhood 1.7, and 1 school lot for School Area 1.4. The project sites are located
east of Alicante Road and north of Poinsettia Lane in Local Facilities Management Zone
IO.
5. CT 04-16/PUD 04-14 - VILLAGES OF LA COSTA GREENS NEIGHBORHOOD 1.6 -
Request for a determination that the project is within the scope of the previously certified
Villages of La Costa Program EIR and that the Program EIR adequately describes the
activity for the purposes of CEQA; and a recommendation of approval of a Tentative
Tract Map and Planned Unit Development Permit to subdivide 36 acres into I 91
residential lots, 1 recreation lot, and 6 open space lots for Neighborhood 1.6, located to
the north of Poinsettia Lane and east of Alicante Road in Local Facilities Management
Zone IO.
Mr. Neu introduced Items 4 and 5 and stated Senior Planner Christer Westman would make the staff
presentation.
Vice Chairperson Montgomery opened the Public Hearing on Items 4 and 5.
Mr. Westman stated that agenda Item 4 [MP 98-01(D)/CT 04-1MPUD 04-13 - Villages of La Costa -
Greens Neighborhoods 1.4 and 1.71 is located at Poinsettia Lane and Alicante Road. The project was
analyzed based against the General Plan, the Villages of La Costa Master Plan, Planned Development
Regulations, and the Zoning Ordinance, the Subdivision Ordinance, the Growth Management Plan as
well as CEQA. The Master Plan Amendment is to locate the school site, which is Neighborhood 1.4, and
to adjust the maximum dwellings for Neighborhood 1.7 which is because several of the home sites are
replaced by the school site. The Master Plan Amendment also shifts the location of a common recreation
lot, which was required for both Neighborhoods 1.6 and 1.7, originally required to be in Neighborhood 1.7
and is now shifted to Neighborhood 1.6. Several adjustments to exhibits have been made to reflect the
above-mentioned changes. Planning Area 1.4 and 1.7 is a 41.4-acre site. The residential lots permitted
in the original Master Plan is 127; however, with the adjustments to the Master Plan, 85 is the maximum
number of residential units allowed. Proposed with the map are 71 residential lots, 7 open space lots,
and 1 school lot. The minimum lot size is 5,000 square feet and the minimum lot width is 50 feet.
Mr. Westman stated that agenda Item 5 (CT 04-16/PUD 04-14 - Villages of La Costa Greens
Neighborhood I .6) is a request for approval of a Tentative Tract Map and Planned Unit Development for
Neighborhood 1.6 in the Villages of La Costa Greens to subdivide 36 acres into 91 residential lots, 1
recreation lot, and 6 open space lots. The project site is located to the north of Poinsettia Lane and east
of Alicante Road. Architectural and dwelling unit plot plans are not proposed at this time. The Planned
Unit Development proposes private streets and a minimum lot size of 6,000 square feet. The project complies with City standards and all necessary findings can be made for the approvals being requested.
Mr. Westman concluded his presentation for agenda Items 4 and 5 and stated he would be available to
answer any questions.
Vice Chairperson Montgomery asked if there were any further questions of staff. Seeing none, he asked
if the applicant wished to make a presentation.
Planning Commission Minutes February 16,2005 Page 4
Fred Arbuckle, President of Morrow Development located on Palomar Oaks Road in Carlsbad, gave a
brief presentation. He stated that Morrow Development and the Carlsbad Unified School District reached
an agreement regarding the conveyance of the site.
Jack Henthorn, 5365 Avenida Encinas, Suite A, Carlsbad, gave a joint detailed presentation of both
agenda Items 4 and 5.
Vice Chairperson Montgomery asked if there were any questions of the applicant.
Commissioner Dominguez asked Mr. Henthorn what kinds of activities, or the level of activity, will occur at
the recreation lot. Mr. Henthorn stated the lot will primarily be a grass area with possibly some facilities
for quasi-passive use of the area. He stated it will be a more passive area instead of active area.
Mr. Dominguez stated that because of the distances between the recreation areas, there might be the
potential for parking problems. Mr. Henthorn stated it had been determined that there is adequate
parking on the street. Mr. Dominguez stated he was satisfied.
Commissioner Whitton commented that he read there would be 85 units in Neighborhood 1.7, but it was
stated there will be 71 units. Mr. Westman clarified that the Master Plan states the maximum number of
units allowed is 85; however, the applicant is proposing 71 units.
Vice Chairperson Montgomery asked if the charitable donation of land to the Carlsbad Unified School
District for the school site was arranged by a reduction in price to accommodate the fiscal needs of the
school district. Mr. Arbuckle stated that, legally speaking, there is a complete purchase price, which has
two components: one portion is cash and the other is a charitable contribution.
Commissioner Cardosa asked Mr. Arbuckle if the school district is pleased with the size of the proposed
school site and if it will be adequate for the future growth of the area. Mr. Arbuckle stated that they have
been meeting with the school district for some time on how to site plan their facilities as well as circulation
patterns on entering and egressing this particular site. Mr. Arbuckle further stated that an extra stop light
on Poinsettia Lane has been added to accommodate the traffic. He believes the school district is
satisfied with the site.
Robert Todd, Director of Construction and Planning for the Carlsbad Unified School District, 6225 El
Camino Real, stated the district is very pleased and very excited with the site.
Commissioner Cardosa asked if there is an anticipated number of students for this facility. Mr. Todd
stated that the school is currently designed with three classroom pods of six rooms each plus three
kindergarten classrooms, which will give an opening occupancy of about 600 students. The site is also
designed and is being permitted for additional classroom pods to allow for future growth, which would
increase the capacity up to approximately 750 students. It is also a function of how the district staffs a
classroom, due to class size reduction, which reduces the number of students per class in grades
kindergarten through third grade.
Vice Chairperson Montgomery asked if there would be a reapportionment between this new school,
Pacific Rim, and Aviara Oaks when the new school opens. Mr. Todd stated that most of the relief will
come from Aviara Oaks Elementary. There might be some students transferred from Pacific Rim. About
80 percent of the target enrollment for the new school will come from the Villages of La Costa Greens and
Bressi Ranch developments, as well as some other new housing just west of El Camino Real, but the
primary relief will come from Aviara Oaks Elementary.
Vice Chairperson Montgomery asked if there were any further questions of the applicant or if there were
any members of the audience who wished to speak on the items. Seeing none, he opened and closed
public testimony on the items.
Vice Chairperson Montgomery asked if there were any further questions of staff.
Vice Chairperson Montgomery asked Bob Johnson, Deputy City Engineer - Transportation, that because
the traffic circulation into the school site appears to travel along Poinsettia Lane to Street “A” then enters
the site, and then exits at the Quartz Street intersection then out in a one-way direction, he stated his
concern about the stacking that might occur on Street “A.” Vice Chairperson Montgomery asked if that is
/a 9
Planning Commission Minutes February 16,2005 Page 5
sufficient or if accommodations can be made for that intersection into the actual school site, possibly
moving it farther north on Street “A.” Mr. Johnson stated that moving the entrance into the school farther
north on Street “A“ would be problematic in that there is a horizontal curve on the road there. He stated
he is concerned with sight distance. He further stated that grading is another issue which factors into it as
well as the landscaping of the school site. Mr. Johnson stated a lot of the problems which occur at the
school entrance, or the ingress point, is a function of how the circulation on site is laid out. He stated that
at this particular school there is a long travel way for drop-off, there appears to be adequate parking
areas, and staff believes the traffic flow into the school site and through the actual school grounds to the
exit point will be much better than what exists at most of the other schools in Carlsbad. He further stated
that this site is designed similar to Pacific Rim Elementary School, which seems to function fairly well. Mr.
Johnson stated staff does not anticipate too many problems with the layout of this site. It is located on
Poinsettia Lane, which is a major arterial, which means there will be no on-street parking for the school.
If there is an overflow condition of parking, it will have to occur on the residential streets surrounding the
school. He stated that with the parking that is provided onsite, that will accommodate most of that
demand. Mr. Johnson further stated that the Carlsbad Unified School District is very well aware of the
concerns from the various City departments about school layouts. Vice Chairperson commented that he
appreciates the remarks because this is the only time the Planning Commission can consider these
concerns. Mr. Johnson commented that Mr. Arbuckle mentioned that there will be an additional traffic
signal provided which was a concern of staff that it would not be provided. However, those concerns
have been addressed and staff is satisfied with the arrangement.
Vice Chairperson Montgomery asked if there were any further questions of staff.
MOTION
ACTION: Motion by Commissioner Heineman, and duly seconded, that the Planning
Commission adopt Planning Commission Resolutions No. 5837 approving Minor
Master Plan Amendment MP 98-01 (D), and adopt Planning Commission
Resolutions No. 5838 and 5839 recommending approval of Tentative Tract Map
CT 04-1 5 and Planned Unit Development PUD 04-1 3 based on the findings and
subject to the conditions contained therein, and that the Planning Commission
adopt Planning Commission Resolutions No. 5840 and 5841 recommending
approval of a Tentative Tract Map (CT 04-16), and Planned Unit Development
Permit (PUD 04-14) based on the findings and subject to the conditions
contained therein.
DISCUSSION
Commissioner Whitton stated he had no comments.
Commissioner Dominguez stated he feels the proposed improvements work to the benefit of the
properties. He commented he is pleased that the developer was able to accommodate the needs of the
school district, which is always important, and that the traffic problems will be mitigated with adequate
internal circulation.
Commissioner Cardosa also appreciates the fact that Traffic Commission has looked at this project with
an open eye. He stated that the schools within the City of Carlsbad are greatly impacted for drop-off and
pick-up and it is an important issue for this development and the number of students the school will
handle. He further stated he supports the project.
Commissioner Heineman stated he supports the project. He stated he is particularly impressed looking at
the entire La Costa Greens layout to see the amount of open space and its placement throughout the
project. He stated he is very much in favor of the project.
Vice Chairperson Montgomery stated he is also in favor of the project. He commented that he likes the
idea of the recreation area in Neighborhood 1.6 being directly adjacent to Neighborhood 1.7, which will
actually work very nicely between both communities. He further stated that these communities benefit not
only from both the school site but the huge public park which will also be built nearby.
Planning Commission Minutes February 16,2005 Page 6
Mr. Westman clarified that the Traffic Commission has not reviewed the project; however, the traffic
engineer, Bob Johnson, and his staff have reviewed the school design and made comments on that.
VOTE: 5-0

NOES: None

presentation.
