ITEM EXPLANATION:
402
-
2005-305
Background 2005 Amendment
The Commission has been undertaking the necessary steps to prepare the 2005 Amendment to
the South Carlsbad Coastal Redevelopment Area Plan, which would enable the Commission to:
1 ) issue redevelopment permits for all rehabilitation, redevelopment and development activities
involving private and public real property, buildings, facilities and infrastructure systems within the
South Carlsbad Coastal Redevelopment Project Area (“Project Area”); 2) make findings that
certain land uses serve an extraordinary public purpose, and; 3) require certain uses obtain a
precise development plan or other appropriate planning permit or regulatory document approved
by the Commission, which sets forth the standards for development of the project.
The 2005 Amendment enables the Commission to facilitate development in accordance with the
Carlsbad General Plan, the Local Coastal Program and all subsequent land use documents
through permit issuance and other appropriate regulatory review. The 2005 Amendment also
requires a finding of extraordinary public purpose and requirements for other regulatory
documents to set forth specific development standards for the following uses:
0 Desalination Plant and other facilities for the production, generation, storage, treatment or
transmission of water;
Generation and transmission of electrical energy;
Public Utility district maintenance and service facilities;
Governmental maintenance, storage and operating facilities;
Processing, using and storage of natural gas, liquid natural gas, and domestic and
agricultural supplies;
Energy transmission facilities, including rights-of-way and pressure control or booster
stations for gasoline, electricity, natural gas, synthetic natural gas, oil or other forms of
energy sources; I

0 Energy transmission facilities, including rights-of-way and pressure control or booster
stations for gasoline, electricity, natural gas, synthetic natural gas, oil or other forms of
energy sources;
0 Wastewater treatment, disposal or reclamation facilities; and/or
Using and storage of fuel oils.
No alteration to existing land uses is proposed by the 2005 Amendment. It is also important to
note that a redevelopment permit, finding of extraordinary public purpose and/or other regulatory
document will not be required to approve any of the above uses which are regulated by the
California Public Utilities Commission.
The 2005 Amendment requires private and public projects, unless exempted, to satisfy
appropriate Commission review before the project would be permitted. In addition, the 2005
Amendment will assist the Commission in facilitating three specific goals of the existing
Redevelopment Plan:
Facilitate interim improvements at the Encina/Cabrillo power generating facility to reduce
the plant’s environmental and economic impacts on the community;
Accommodate the economically viable redevelopment of the Encina/Cabrillo plant to a
physically smaller, more operationally efficient facility, and;
Promote the redevelopment of underutilized properties in the Ponto area.
s33336 of the California Community Redevelopment Law (“Law”) requires redevelopment plans
to contain adequate safeguards to ensure that the work of redevelopment will be carried out
pursuant to the redevelopment plan. In addition, s33338 of the Law allows for redevelopment
plans to contain other covenants, conditions and restrictions which the legislative body (city
council) prescribes, in order to implement the goals and objectives of the redevelopment plan.
While the Law requires mechanisms to ensure the goals of a redevelopment plan will be
achieved, $33331 of the Law requires every redevelopment plan be consistent with the
community’s general plan. The 2005 Amendment is not proposing any changes to the existing
land use regulations of the General Plan, Zoning or Local Coastal Program. The 2005
Amendment does not alter the land uses or development intent of the General Plan or Local
Coastal Program. Instead, the 2005 Amendment merely establishes a process and framework
(e.g., permit and Commission approval) within which projects will be evaluated by the
Commission as to their conformance with the General Plan, Local Coastal Program and their
ability to implement the goals of the Redevelopment Plan. On September 21, 2005 the Carlsbad
Planning Commission found the 2005 Amendment to be consistent with the General Plan and has
recommended approval of the amendment. In the future, specific plans or other land use
strategies or regulatory documents may be proposed for the Project Area which could involve
land use changes or land use issues. However, any future proposals would require separate,
additional review and consideration by the Planning Commission as well as the Housing and
Redevelopment Commission and/or City Council.
Joint Public Hearinq
Pursuant to Sections 33451 and 33454 of the Law, the City Council and Commission must hold a
public hearing prior to the adoption of the 2005 Amendment to hear all testimony for and against
the proposed 2005 Amendment. The Law provides that when a city council serves as the
governing board of the community development commission/redevelopment agency, both bodies
may hold a joint public hearing to receive testimony on a redevelopment plan amendment.
2-
Page 3
Further, the Law stipulates: that the notice of the joint public hearing be published in a
newspaper of general circulation not less than once a week for three (3) successive weeks prior
to the hearing; that it be mailed to all affected taxing agencies via certified mail, return receipt
requested; and that it be mailed to all affected property owners, businesses, and residents at
least 30 days prior to the hearing via first-class mail.
The attached resolutions provide for Council and Commission consent to hold a joint public
hearing. The hearing is scheduled for the City Council/Commission meeting on Tuesday,
November 8, 2005, at 6:OO p.m. (or as soon as possible thereafter) in the City Council Chamber’s
located at 1200 Carlsbad Village Drive.
Environmental Review
The City Council and Housing and Redevelopment Commission certified the original Final
Program Environmental Impact Report (EIR 99-01) for the South Carlsbad Coastal
Redevelopment Project Area in July, 2000 prior to adopting the Redevelopment Plan. The EIR
was prepared pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (Public Resources
Code Section 21000 et/seq) and State and City Guidelines implementing CEQA, which included
the Draft EIR, the comments made on the EIR and the Agency’s written response to the
comments. The 2005 Amendment to the SCCRA Plan would not change the expectations of the
land uses, amount of development and character of the development that would occur as a result
of implementing the amendment to the Redevelopment Plan from that in the certified Final EIR for
the assessment of potential environmental impacts. Since no substantial changes have occurred
and there is no new information of substantial importance with respect to circumstances under
which the Redevelopment Project is undertaken which would require revisions to the certified
Final EIR, in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Sections 15180 and 15162, no subsequent EIR
or supplement to the Final EIR need be prepared for the Project. No further environmental review
is required for said 2005 Amendment to the SCCRA Plan.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Staffs recommendation will not have a fiscal impact on the City of Carlsbad General Budget. The
estimated cost of mailing the public notice to all residents, property and business owners within
the Project Area has been included in the Commission’s 2005-06 budget.
