ITEM EXPLANATION: , APPROVING Master Plan ADOPTING a Mitigated Negative and APPROVING General Plan Project Applications Negative Declaration GPA05-15 MPA 98-01 (G) SDP05-18 SUP 05-17 Administrative Approvals Reviewed by and Final at Planning Commission X X To be reviewed - Final at Council X X X On July 19, 2006, the Planning Commission conducted a public hearing and recommended to the City Council approval (6-0 - Commissioner Segal did not participate due to a potential conflict of interest) of a Negative Declaration, General Plan Amendment and a Master Plan Amendment to change the General Plan Land Use designation on a 7.68 acre parcel generally located on the east side of El Camino Real between Town Garden Lane and Camino Vida Roble in Local Facilities Management Zone 10. At the same hearing, the Planning Commission also approved (6-0) a Site Development Flan and Special Use Permit to construct two 42,500 square foot medical office buildings. The approval of the Site Development Plan and Special Use Permit were final at the Planning Commission. The proposed General Plan Amendment and Master Plan Amendment would change the General Plan Land Use designation on the property from Planned Industrial (PI) to Office (O) The Zoning of the property is Planned Community (PC) and does not need to be changed. The proposed Master Plan Amendment is necessary to provide consistency between the proposed development and the General Plan. Except for a brief statement from the applicant's representative, no public testimony was offered at the Planning Commission hearing. A full disclosure of the Planning Commission's actions and a complete description and staff analysis of the proposed project are included in the attached minutes and Planning Commission staff report. The Planning Commission and staff are recommending approval of the proposed Land Use and Master Plan Amendments. FISCAL IMPACT: All public infrastructures required for this project will be funded and/or constructed by the developer. As estimated by the developer, there will be a four fold increase in the property value developed as medical office. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT: Staff has conducted an environmental impact assessment to determine if the project could have a potentially significant effect on the environment pursuant to CEQA Guidelines and the Environmental Protection Ordinance (Title 19) of the Carlsbad Municipal Code. The project does not have any impacts to any significant native or wetland habitats or wildlife species identified as candidate, sensitive or special status by the wildlife agencies and is identified as a development area within the HMP and Villages of La Costa Habitat Conservation Plan. In consideration of the foregoing, the Planning Director issued a Notice of Intent to adopt a Negative Declaration for the project on May 23, 2006. No comments were received during the 20-day public review period (May 23, 2006 - June 12, 2006).

Carlsbad. San Diego County. APN 213-110-01-00. PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The project consists of a General Plan Amendment and Villages of La Costa Master Plan Amendment to change the General Plan Land Use Element from Planned Industrial to Office and the construction of two two-story 42,500 square foot Medical Office buildings (85,000 sq ft total) on a 7.68 acre site. DETERMINATION: The City of Carlsbad has conducted an environmental review of the above described project pursuant to the Guidelines for Implementation of the California Environmental Quality Act and the Environmental Protection Ordinance of the City of Carlsbad. As a result of said review, the initial study (EIA Part 2) did not identify any potentially significant impacts on the environment, and the City of Carlsbad finds as follows: 1X1 The proposed project COULD NOT have a significant effect on the environment. I I The proposed project MAY have "potentially significant impact(s)" on the environment, but at least one potentially significant impact 1) has been adequately analyzed in an earlier document pursuant to applicable legal standards, and 2) has been addressed by mitigation measures based on the earlier analysis as described on attached sheets. (Negative Declaration applies only to the effects that remained to be addressed). I I Although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, there WILL NOT be a significant effect in this case because all potentially significant effects (a) have been analyzed adequately in an earlier ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT or NEGATIVE DECLARATION pursuant to applicable standards and (b) have been avoided or mitigated pursuant to that earlier ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT or NEGATIVE DECLARATION, including revisions or mitigation measures that are imposed upon the proposed project. Therefore, nothing further is required.

OTHER PUBLIC AGENCIES WHOSE APPROVAL IS REQUIRED (i.e., permits, financing approval or participation agreements): None 9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION/ ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING AND SURROUNDING LAND USES: The project consists of a General Plan Amendment to change the General Plan Land Use designation of the site from Planned Industrial to Office. A Master Plan Amendment is to reflect the proposed Land Use changes in the adopted Villages of La Costa Master Plan from Planned Industrial Zoning to Office Zoning. A Site Development Plan and Special Use Permit are for the construction of two two-story 42,500 square foot Medical Office buildings (85,000 sq ft total) on an existing 7.68 acre parcel. The Special Use Permit is required because the project site is located within the el Camino Real Scenic Corridor. The site is a previously graded industrial pad with utility services provided. Site access is provided via a shared driveway off of El Camino Real and Metropolitan Street from the north. The surrounding land uses are Planned Industrial to the north. Open Space to the south and east, a Community Facilities Site teethe southwest and a prime arterial roadway (El Camino Real) to the west. Planned Industrial is to the west of El Camino Real. The project site is located within Village 1.1 of the Villages of La Costa Master Plan. Many of the environmental impacts of the project were evaluated in the Program Environmental Impact Report TEIR 98-07) for the Villages of La Costa Master Plan (2000) MP 98-01. The City Council of the City of Carlsbad certified EIR 98-07 and adopted a Statement of Overriding Considerations on October 23. 2001. Mass grading of the project site was authorized as part of the approval of the Master Tentative Map for La Costa Greens (CT 99-03). The project has been reviewed for compliance with EIR 98-07 for the Villages of La Costa Master Plan and has been designed or will be conditioned to incorporate the applicable mitigation measures as required. Rev. 02/22/06 IS ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS POTENTIALLY AFFECTED: The summary of environmental factors checked below would be potentially affected by this project, involving at least one impact that is a "Potentially Significant Impact," or "Potentially Significant Impact Unless Mitigation Incorporated" as indicated by the checklist on the following pages.

D I find that the proposed project COULD NOT have a significant effect on the environment, and a NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared. I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, there will not be a significant effect in this case because the mitigation measures described on an attached sheet have been added to the project. A MITIGATED-NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared. I find that the proposed project MAY have a significant effect on the environment, and an ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required. I find that the proposed project MAY have "potentially significant impacts)" on the environment, but at least one potentially significant impact 1) has been adequately analyzed in an earlier document pursuant to applicable legal standards, and 2) has been addressed by mitigation measures based on the earlier analysis as described on attached sheets. A Negative Declaration is required, but it must analyze only the effects that remain to be addressed. I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, there WILL NOT be a significant effect in this case because all potentially significant effects (a) have been analyzed adequately in an earlier ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT or NEGATIVE DECLARATION pursuant to applicable standards and (b) have been avoided or mitigated pursuant to that earlier ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT or NEGATIVE DECLARATION, including revisions or mitigation measures that are imposed upon the proposed project. Therefore, nothing further is required. Date ' T Plann/jig Director's Signature Date / Rev. 02/22/06 11 ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS i - STATE CEQA GUIDELINES, Chapter 3, Article 5, Section 15063 requires that the City conduct an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) to determine if a project may have a significant effect on the environment. The Environmental Impact Assessment appears in the following pages in the form of a checklist. This checklist identifies any physical, biological and human factors that might be impacted by the proposed project and provides the City with information to use as the basis for deciding whether to prepare an Environmental Impact Report (EIR), Negative Declaration, or to rely on a previously approved EIR or Negative Declaration. • A brief explanation is required for all answers except "No Impact" answers that are adequately supported by an 'information source cited in the parentheses following each question. A "No Impact" answer is adequately supported if the referenced information sources show that the impact simply does not apply to projects like the one involved. A "No Impact" answer should be explained when there is no source document to refer to, or it is based on project-specific factors as well as general standards. • "Less Than Significant Impact" applies where there is supporting evidence that the potential impact is not significantly adverse, and the impact does not exceed adopted general standards and policies. • "Potentially Significant Unless Mitigation Incorporated" applies where the incorporation of mitigation measures has reduced an effect from "Potentially Significant Impact" to a "Less Than Significant Impact." The developer must agree to the mitigation, and the City must describe the mitigation measures, and briefly explain how they reduce the effect to a less than significant level. • "Potentially Significant Impact" is appropriate if there is substantial evidence that an effect is significantly adverse. • Based on an "EIA-Initial Study", if a proposed project could have a potentially significant adverse effect on the environment, but all potentially significant adverse effects (a) have been analyzed adequately in an earlier EIR or Mitigated Negative Declaration pursuant to applicable standards and (b) have been avoided or mitigated pursuant to that earlier EIR or Mitigated Negative Declaration, including revisions or mitigation measures that are imposed upon the proposed project, and none of the circumstances requiring a supplement to or supplemental EIR are present and all the mitigation measures required by the prior environmental document have been incorporated into this project, then no additional environmental document is required. ' • • When "Potentially Significant Impact" is checked the project is not necessarily required to prepare an EIR if the significant adverse effect has been analyzed adequately hi an earlier EIR pursuant to applicable standards and the effect will be mitigated, or a "Statement of Overriding Considerations" has been made pursuant to that earlier EIR. • A Negative Declaration may be prepared if the City perceives no substantial evidence that the project or any of its aspects may cause a significant adverse effect on the environment. • If there are one or more potentially significant adverse effects, the City may avoid preparing an EIR if there are mitigation measures to clearly reduce adverse impacts to less man significant, and those mitigation measures are agreed to by the developer prior to public review. In this case, the appropriate "Potentially Significant Impact Unless Mitigation Incorporated" may be checked and a Mitigated Negative Declaration may be prepared. Rev. 02/22/06 • An EIR must be prepared if "Potentially Significant Impact" is checked, and including but not limited to the following circumstances: (1) the potentially significant adverse effect has not been discussed or mitigated in an earlier EIR pursuant to applicable standards, and the developer does not agree to mitigation measures that reduce the adverse impact to less than significant; (2) a "Statement of Overriding Considerations" for the significant adverse impact has not been made pursuant to an earlier EIR; (3) proposed mitigation measures do not reduce the adverse impact to less than significant; or (4) through the EIA-Initial Study analysis it is not possible to determine the level of significance for a potentially adverse effect, or determine the effectiveness of a mitigation measure in reducing a potentially significant effect to below a level of significance. A discussion of potential impacts and the proposed mitigation measures appears after each related set of questions. Particular attention should be given to discussing mitigation for impacts, which would otherwise be determined significant. Rev. 02/22/06 I. AESTHETICS-Would the project:. a) Have a substantial adverse effect on a scenic vista? (#l:Pgs 4.3-1 -4.3-48) b) Substantially damage scenic resources, including but not limited to, trees, rock outcroppings, and historic buildings within a State scenic highway? (#l:Pgs 4.3- 1-4.3-48) c) Substantially degrade the existing visual character or quality of the site and its surroundings? (#l:Pgs 4.3-1 -4.3-48) d) Create a new source of substantial light and glare, which would adversely affect day or nighttime views in the area? (#l:Pgs 4.3-1-4.3-48) Potentially Significant Impact Potentially Significant Unless Mitigation Incorporated Less Than Significant Impact No Impact n n The project is proposed along El Camino Real, a designated scenic corridor. The project would not have an impact as the project is setback from the roadway which would help preserve distant views and reduce a corridor effect caused by buildings being placed near the roadway. The site is Land Use designated as a Planned Industrial building site and the change of the site to an Office Land Use designation would not have any negative effects above those analyzed with the previous land use designation as the same type, intensity and design of building could be developed under either land use designation. II. AGRICULTURAL RESOURCES - (In determining whether impacts to agricultural resources are significant environmental effects, lead agencies may refer to the California Agricultural Land Evaluation and Site Assessment Model-1997 prepared by the California Department of Conservation as an optional model to use in assessing impacts on agriculture and farmland.) Would the project: a) Convert Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland, or Farmland of Statewide Importance (Farmland), as shown on the maps prepared pursuant to the Farmland Mapping and Monitoring Program of the California Resources Agency, to non-agricultural use? (#l:Pgs 4.1-1 -4.1-46 and4.10-1 -4.10-25) b) Conflict with existing zoning for agricultural use, or a Williamson Act contract? Potentially Significant Impact Potentially Significant Unless • Mitigation Incorporated Less Than Significant No Impact Impact Rev. 02/22/06 c) Involve other changes in the existing environment, which, due to their location or nature, could result in conversion of Farmland to non-agricultural use? (#l:Pgs 4.1-1 -4.1-46 and4.10-1 -4.10-25) The site is a previously graded industrial pad and does not support agricultural uses and is not under Williamson Act contracts. III. AIR QUALITY - (Where available, the significance criteria established by the applicable air quality management or air pollution control district may be relied upon to make the following determinations.) Would the project: a) Conflict with or obstruct implementation of the applicable air quality plan? (#1 :Pgs 4.9-1 - 4.9-21) b) Violate any air quality standard or contribute substantially to an existing or projected air quality violation? (#l:Pgs 4.9-1 -4.9-21) c) Result in a cumulatively considerable net increase of any criteria pollutant for which the project region is in non-attainment under an applicable federal or state ambient air quality standard (including releasing emissions which exceed quantitative thresholds for ozone precursors)? (#l:Pgs 4.9-1 - 4.9-21) d) Expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations? (#l:Pgs 4.9-1 -4.9-21) e) Create objectionable odors affecting a substantial number of people? (#1 :Pgs 4.9-1 - 4.9-21) Potentially Significant Impact Potentially Significant Unless Mitigation Incorporated Less Than Significant No Impact Impact Rev. 02/22/06 a) No Impact. The project site is located in the San Diego Air Basin which-is a state non-attainment area for ozone (O3) and for participate matter less than or equal to 10 microns in diameter (PM]0). The periodic violations of national Ambient Air Quality Standards (AAQS) in the San Diego Air Basin (SDAB), particularly for ozone in inland foothill areas, requires that a plan be developed outlining the pollution controls that will be undertaken to improve air quality. In San Diego County, this attainment planning process is embodied in the Regional Air Quality Strategies (RAQS) developed jointly by the Air Pollution Control District (APCD) and the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG). A Plan to meet the federal standard for ozone was developed hi 1994 during the process of updating the 1991 state- mandated plan. This local plan was combined with plans from all other California non-attainment areas having serious ozone problems and used to create the California State Implementation Plan (SIP). The SIP was adopted by the Air Resources Board (ARB) after public hearings on November 9th through 10th in 1994, and was forwarded to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for approval. After considerable analysis and debate, particularly regarding airsheds with the worst smog problems, EPA approved the SIP in mid-1996. The proposed project relates to the SIP and/or RAQS through the land use and growth assumptions that are incorporated into the air quality planning document. These growth assumptions are based on each city's and the County's general plan. If a proposed project is consistent with its applicable General Plan, then the project presumably has been anticipated with the regional air quality planning process. Such consistency would ensure that the project would not have an adverse regional air quality impact. Section 15125(B) of the State of California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines contains specific reference to the need to evaluate any inconsistencies between the proposed project and the applicable air quality management plan. Transportation Control Measures (TCMs) are part of the RAQS. The RAQS and TCM plan set forth the steps needed to accomplish attainment of state and federal ambient air quality standards. The California Air Resources Board provides criteria for determining whether a project conforms with the RAQS which include the following: • Is a regional air quality plan being implemented in the project area? • Is the project consistent with the growth assumptions in the regional air quality plan? The project area is located hi the San Diego Ah- Basin, and as such, is located in an area where a RAQS is being implemented. The project is consistent with the regional air quality plan and "will in no way conflict or obstruct implementation of the regional plan. b) Less Than Significant Impact. The closest air quality monitoring station to the project site is at Camp Pendleton. Data available for this monitoring site from 2000 through December 2004, indicate that the most recent air quality violations recorded were for the state one hour standard for ozone (a total of 10 days during the 5-year period). No other violations of any air quality standards have been recorded during the 5-year tune period. The project would involve minimal short-term emissions associated with finish grading and construction. Such emissions would be minimized through standard construction measures such as the use of properly tuned equipment and watering the site for dust control. Long-term emissions associated with travel to and from the project will be minimal. Although air pollutant emissions would be associated with the project, they would neither result hi the violation of any air quality standard (comprising only an incremental contribution to overall air basin quality readings), nor contribute substantially to an existing or projected ah" quality violation. Any impact is assessed as less than significant. Rev. 02/22/06 c) Less Than Significant Impact. The air basin is currently in a state non-attainment zone for ozone and suspended fine particulates. The proposed project would represent a contribution to a cumulatively considerable potential net increase in emissions throughout the air basin. As described above, however, emissions associated with the proposed project would be minimal. Given the limited emissions potentially associated with the proposed project, air quality would be essentially the same whether or not the proposed project is implemented. According to the CEQA Guidelines Section 15130(a)(4), the proposed project's contribution to the cumulative impact is considered de minimus. Any impact is assessed as less than significant. d) No impact. As noted above, the proposed would not result in substantial pollutant emissions or concentrations. In addition, there are no sensitive receptors (e.g., schools or hospitals) located in the vicinity of the project. No impact is assessed. No Impact. The construction of the proposed project could generate fumes from the operation of construction equipment, which may be considered objectionable by some people. Such exposure would be short-term or transient. In addition, the number of people exposed to such transient impacts is not considered substantial. IV.

The Authority found the Land Use amendment project is conditionally consistent with the ALUCP. The project has been modified to incorporate the conditions which requires development within this area to be kept free of intensive development and all uses which involve the assembly of large groups of people (more than one hundred (100) persons per assembly area (as defined by the California Building Code Group A Occupancy). D 12 Rev. 02/22/06 Vffl. HYDROLOGY AND WATER QUALITY - Would the project: a) Violate any water quality standards or waste discharge requirements? (#l:Pgs 4.11-1 -4.11-31, # 3) b) Substantially deplete groundwater supplies or interfere substantially with ground water recharge such that there would be a net deficit in aquifer volume or a lowering of the local ground water table level (i.e., the production rate of pre-existing nearby wells would drop to a level which would not support existing land uses or planned uses for which permits have been granted)? (#l:Pgs 4.11-1 -4.11-31) c) Substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the site or area, including through the alteration of the course of a stream or river, in a manner, which would result in substantial erosion or siltation on- or off- site?

Development of the Proposed Project site would result in an increase in the cumulative amounts of urban pollutants entering San Marcos Creek and Batiquitos Lagoon. Although the cumulative contribution to urban runoff would be minimal and would not result in water pollution and/or contamination that would significantly impact human health and safety or biological communities, impacts are regarded as significant. Finding. With the incorporation of the mitigation measures contained in Section 4.11 of Program EIR 98-07, the identified direct significant impact would be avoided and thereby reduced to below a level of significance, but the proposed project's cumulative contribution to cumulative impacts would remain significant and unmitigable. The required mitigation measures include: (1) designing and incorporating the current Best Management Practices and Best Available Technologies (BMPs and BATs) available at that time for pollution control and erosion/siltation control, as referenced in the "California Storm Water Best Management Practices Handbook" and meeting all regulatory standards; (2) in conjunction with the sale, rental or lease of business property, all prospective owners and tenants shall be notified hi writing of the requirements for properly disposing of toxic and hazardous waste products; and (3) applicable standards of the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit for the San Diego County area shall be met. Factual Support and Rationale. The new storm water point source discharge requirements apply to urban pollutant elimination. In addition, the project applicant will be required to educate occupants as to the need to eliminate or reduce general non-residential pollution entering the storm drain systems. Regulating the source, plus onsite detention and filtering, all consistent with the RWQCB order No. 2001-1, will further reduce urban pollutants from entering the lagoon and ocean. EX.

The difference in the use of the building would be that the Office uses would allow the sales of goods and services to the general public whereas the Planned Industrial office uses are not retail in nature, do not cater to the general public, and do not generate walk-in or drive-in traffic and are incidental to the industrial uses in the vicinity. The proposed development of an Office Land Use would not have an impact on the Industrial Park hi that the site is located along El Camino Real, a prune arterial roadway, and would not bring traffic into the industrial parks. The site is separated from other industrial uses by El Camino Real and would no bias the ability of industrial users to conduct uses allowed in the industrial zone. Other uses in the immediate area are health club facilities, school district offices, professional office uses and light manufacturing uses. X.

TRANSPORTATION/TRAFFIC - Would the project: Cause an increase in traffic, which is substantial in relation to the existing traffic load and capacity of the street system (i.e., result in a substantial increase in either the number of vehicle trips, the volume to capacity ratio on roads, or congestion at intersections)? (#1 :Pgs 4.7-1 - 4.7-53) a) Exceed, either individually or cumulatively, a level of service standard established by the county congestion management agency for designated roads or highways?

(# 1 :Pgs 4.7-1 - 4.7-53) a) Less Than Significant Impact. The project will generate 4,250 Average Daily Trips (ADT) and 468 peak hour trips. This traffic will utilize the following roadways: El Camino Real and Town Garden Lane. The Villages of La Costa Master Plan analyzed the traffic for this site as 7.9 acres of Industrial Business Park generating 630 ADT. This increase in ADT is partially offset by the reduction in Day Care building for Neighborhood 1.2 from 21,780 s.f. to 10,000 s.f, saving 942 ADT. Taking that into account, the change of land use to Medical Office increases the traffic generation over the master plan levels by 2,678 ADT. This increase was analyzed by Linscott Law & Greenspan in their letter report dated December 30,2005. Their analysis showed that for "Year 2020 with Project", the El Camino Real / Town Garden Lane intersection still operated at Level of Service (LOS) D or better. Therefore, the proposed changes would not result in any new significant project traffic impacts over those analyzed and mitigated hi the Villages of La Costa and Bressi Ranch EIRs. b) Less Than Significant Impact. SANDAG acting as the County Congestion Management Agency has designated three roads (Rancho Santa Fe Rd., El Camino Real and Palomar Airport Rd.) and two highway segments in Carlsbad as part of the regional circulation system. The Existing and Buildout average daily traffic (ADT) and Existing LOS on these designated roads and highways hi Carlsbad is: Existing ADT* LOS Buildout ADT* Rancho Santa Fe Road 17-35 "A-D" 35-56 El Camino Real 27-49 "A-C" 33-62 Palomar Airport Road 10-57 "A-D" ' 30-73 SR78 124-142 "F" 156-180 1-5 199-216 "D" 260-272 * The numbers are in thousands of daily trips. The Congestion Management Program's (CMP) acceptable Level of Service (LOS) standard is "E", or LOS "F" if that was the LOS in the 1990 base year (e.g., SR 78 hi Carlsbad was LOS "F" hi 1990). Accordingly, all designated roads and highways are currently operating at or better than the acceptable standard LOS. Note that the buildout ADT projections are based on the full implementation of the region's general and community plans. The proposed project is consistent with the general plan and, therefore, its traffic was used in modeling the buildout projections. Achievement of the CMP acceptable Level of Service (LOS) "E" standard assumes implementation of the adopted CMP strategies. Based on the design capacity(ies) of the designated roads and highways and implementation of the CMP strategies, they will function at acceptable level(s) of service hi the short-term and at buildout. c) No Impact. The proposed project does not include any aviation components. The project is consistent with the Comprehensive Land Use Plan for the McClellan-Palomar Airport. It would not, therefore, result in a change of ah- traffic patterns or result hi substantial safety risks. No impact assessed. 18 Rev. 02/22/06 d) No Impact. All project circulation improvements will be designed iand constructed to City standards; and, therefore, would not result in design hazards. The proposed project is consistent with the City's general plan and zoning. Therefore, it would not increase hazards due to an incompatible use. No impact assessed. e) No Impact The proposed project has been designed to satisfy the emergency requirements of the Fire and Police Departments. No impact assessed. No Impact The proposed project is not requesting a parking variance. Additionally, the project would comply with the City's parking requirements to ensure an adequate parking supply. No impact assessed. g) No Impact. The project is near public transportation. The project also incorporates bike racks. XVI.

MANDATORY FINDINGS OF SIGNIFICANCE a) Does the project have the potential to degrade the quality of the environment, substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population to drop below self-sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or animal community, reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal or eliminate important examples of the major periods of California history or prehistory? b) Does the project have impacts that are individually limited, but cumulatively considerable? ("Cumula- tively considerable" means that the incremental effects of a project are considerable when viewed in connection with the effects of past projects, the effects of other current projects, and the effects of probable future projects?) c) Does the project have environmental effects, which will cause the substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly? Potentially Significant Impact Potentially Significant Unless Mitigation Incorporated Less Than Significant No Impact Impact n n IEI 20 Rev. 02/22/06 The proposed project was evaluated in the Final Program Environmental Impact Report for the Villages of La Costa Master Plan (2000') MP 98-01 (EIR 98-07), dated July 16, 2001, T & B Planning Consultants, Inc. EIR 98- 07 evaluates the potential environmental effects of the development and operation of the "Villages of La Costa Master Plan (2000)" and associated actions. The "Villages of La Costa Master Plan (2000)" is a planning document which will guide the development of 2,390 dwelling units, and some non-residential land uses on a 1,866.4 gross acre area consisting of three villages. The Greens Village consists of 660.7 gross acres and provides for a maximum of 1,038 residential units with some non-residential land uses. The Ridge Village consists of 493.1 acres and provides for a maximum of 320 residential units. The Oaks Village consists of 712.5 acres and a maximum of 1,032 residential units as well as a community facilities site. The Greens (Zone 10) portion of the project is generally located approximately 2,500 feet south of Palomar Airport Road, east of El Camino Real, north of Alga Road, and west of Unicornio Street. The Ridge and Oaks (Zone 11) portion of the project site is located north and east of La Costa Avenue, south of Alga Road, east of El Fuerte Street, and straddles portions of Rancho Santa Fe Road. EIR 98-07 analyzed the following environmental issue areas: Land Use and Community Character, Landform Alteration, Visual Quality, Biological Resources, Archaeological Resources, Paleontological Resources, Transportation, Noise, Air Quality, Geology/Soils, Hydrology, Water Quality and Drainage, Public Facilities and Services, Human Health and Safety Hazards, and Population and Housing. The Initial Study prepared for the Villages of La Costa Master Plan and related action is included in Volume 1 of the Appendices for EIR 98-07 and analyzed additional issues, which were determined not to have a significant environmental impact. The City of Carlsbad 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 applicable to this Neighborhood have been completed, incorporated into the project design or are required as conditions of approval for the project. The EIR 98-07 "Statement of Overriding Considerations" applies to all projects covered by the Villages of La Costa Final Program EIR. XVIII.

The Conditional Use Permit shall be consistent with the concepts, goals and standards specified in this Master Plan to ensure compatibility with all appropriate City policies and ordinances. After final approval of each Conditional Use Permit, grading, building and other ministerial permits for the development of the site may be issued provided that all conditions of approval and public facility requirements have been satisfied per the relevant Zone 10 and Zone 11 Local Facilities Management Plans. Each Conditional Use Permit shall be submitted and processed as set forth in Chapter 21.42, Conditional Uses, of the Carlsbad Municipal Code. 3.8 Child Day Care Center A child day care center is permitted in the Villages of La Costa within the La Costa Greens area designated Community Facilities on Exhibit 2-3, Master Plan Zoning. The proposed'day care center, located along El Camino Real, is subject to the provisions of Section 21.83.080, Development Standards For Child Day Care Centers, of the Carlsbad Municipal Code. A child day care center located directly adjacent to Planning Area 1.1, designated for Office (O) zoning district permitted uses, is subject to the limitations and provisions within Code Section 21.83.060 (Child Care) regarding the potential health and safety risks associated with hazardous materials used in nearby businesses. The limitations include a required risks evaluation, parental and property owner notifications, an emergency operating plan, and an operational agreement with the City. Child day care center is defined as a facility other than a family day care home which provides non-medical care, protection, and supervision for children under eighteen years of age for periods of less than twenty-four hours per day. Child 3-4 JHAWLC MP April 2006 VILLAGES OF LA COSTA MASTER PLAN DEVELOPMENT REVIEW PROCESS i „ day care centers include preschools through kindergarten, nursery schools, employer-sponsored child day care facilities, and before- and after-school recreational programs, but do not include public or private elementary schools. 3.9 Site Development Plans A Site Development Plan processed pursuant to Chapter 21.06 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code shall be submitted and approved prior to the development of apartment projects which include more than 4 dwelling units, for single-family home neighborhoods with a minimum lot size of 7,500 square feet and greater, and for any development in the Office Zone (Planning Area 1.1). The Site Development Plan shall be consistent with the concepts, goals and standards specified in this Master Plan. After final approval of each Site Development Plan, grading, building and other ministerial permits for the development of the site may be issued provided that all conditions of approval and public facility requirements have been satisfied. 3.10 Public Facility Phasing The Zone 10 and Zone 11 Local Facilities Management Plans contain detailed development phasing programs for eleven public facilities covered by the City of Carlsbad Citywide Public Facility Plan. These plans ensure that public facilities will be in place when they are needed. The Master Plan will be developed in multiple phases. Each phase has specific offsite and onsite improvements that must be provided prior to or concurrent with development. The Citywide Public Facilities plan established performance standards for public facilities. These performance standards were adhered to by the Zone 10 and Zone 11 Local Facilities Management Plans to ensure the appropriate timing of facilities and services. All public facility performance standards identified in the Local Facilities Management Plans and any amendments thereto must be complied with as the Master Plan develops. The phasing of public facilities is addressed within each of the Village Development Plan chapters of the Master Plan. Public facilities phasing for La Costa Greens is discussed in Section 5.4 and illustrated on Exhibits 5-6, 7, 8, 9, and 10. The phasing of public facilities for La Costa Ridge is described in Section 6.4 and shown on Exhibits 6-6, 7, 8, and 9. Public facilities phasing for 3-5 JHAWLC MP April 2006 VILLAGES OF LA COSTA MASTER PLAN DEVELOPMENT REVIEW PROCESS i- La Costa Oaks is described in Section 7.4 and depicted on Exhibit 7-6, 7, 8, 9, and 10. 3-6 JHAWLC MP April 2006 VILLAGES OF LA COSTA LA COSTA GREENS MASTER PLAN VILLAGE DEVELOPMENT PLAN i - 5.2 Village Land Use Plan The La Costa Greens Village consists of approximately 660 acres. Generally located around the north course of the La Costa Resort golf course, the La Costa Greens Village is bounded to the south by Alga Road and by West Bluff Plaza and El Camino Real to the west. Poinsettia Lane, which extends northeasterly from El Camino Real, will serve as a primary pedestrian and vehicular corridor within the community. The La Costa Greens Village Development Plan, Exhibit 5-1, envisions a full spectrum of land uses for the La Costa Greens Village. As defined by the La Costa Greens Village Development Plan Table, Exhibit 5-A, the La Costa Greens Village will provide for a wide range of residential products, active and passive recreation areas, natural open space, a potential elementary school site, a community facilities site, a child daycare site, an RV storage site, and a an Office site. As shown on Exhibit 5-2, individual La Costa Greens neighborhoods are located within the larger General Plan Land Use category areas, which are also shown on Exhibit 2-1, General Plan Land Use. In order to determine the number of dwelling units allowed within any particular land use category, the Growth Management Control Point of the category is multiplied by the number of net developable acres located within the category area. The number of General Plan Dwelling Units and Maximum Allowable Dwelling Units for each General Plan Land Use category are shown on Exhibit 5-B, Residential Density Consistency Table. Dwelling units may be clustered within a General Plan Land Use Category provided the density of each neighborhood falls within the density range allowed by the General Plan Land Use category (see Section 2.1). The density of an individual neighborhood, therefore, may exceed the Growth Management Control Point as long as all the La Costa Greens Village neighborhoods located within the General Plan category do not, in aggregate, exceed the Allowable Dwelling Units shown in Exhibit 5-B. 5-2 JHAWLC MP April 2006 o r u td Q a Sou bo 1/31/3 Cd U Sip- 3 u OH 1 P^WH s uo C0 C. b<y C?

A recreational vehicle (RV) storage site is identified by the La Costa Greens Village Development Plan within the community facilities site in Neighborhood 1.3. The required area of .34 acre, exclusive of driveways and approaches, provides for 20 square feet per dwelling unit within the planned development neighborhoods (those with minimum lot areas less than 7,500 sq. ft. or gated). The .34 required common area assumes that rental apartments will be provided in Neighborhood 1.15. If ownership units are offered, however, then up to an additional .08 acre of RV storage area is required. If Neighborhood 1.12 applies as a planned development for a gated community, then an additional 760 square feet of RV storage space will be required. Independent storage may be provided onsite, within a particular development to serve the neighborhood. The common storage area may also be reduced if the RV storage spaces required to accommodate a neighborhood are provided for within a particular development. The RV storage site must be screened from public view by a fence, wall, or landscaping. 5.2.4 Office The La Costa Greens Village Development Plan identifies a 7.9-acre Office site. Planning Area 1.1 is located in the northwest corner of La Costa Greens, to the east side of El Camino Real. The area is designated Office and Related Commercial (O) by the General Plan. This classification designates areas which are compatible with and environmentally- suited for office uses. Permitted uses and potential conditional uses are identified in sections (d) Permitted Uses and (e) Conditional Uses of Neighborhood 1.1 section of this Master Plan. 5.2.5 Open Space Per Section 21.38.060 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code, all Master Plans must provide fifteen percent (15%) of the total Master Plan area in an integrated open space program which addresses 5-11 JHAWLC MP .

The La Costa Greens Circulation Plan is illustrated by Exhibit 5-4. Typical street sections are provided within the master plan. In general new local streets within the master plan will include landscaped parkways having a minimum width of four and one-half feet located between the curb and sidewalk. Sidewalks having a minimum width of five feet shall be provided on both sides of all streets unless the' Planning Commission or City Council determines that it is appropriate to construct sidewalks on one side of the street only. 1. Traffic Calming During the buildout of the Villages of La Costa Master Plan the City Council may approve standards for the use of traffic calming devices. Should the use of traffic calming devices be approved by the City Council such devices may be incorporated into project designs for neighborhoods which have not yet received discretionary approvals for development or into existing developed neighborhoods. The inclusion of such devices shall not require substantial modifications to the neighborhood concept designs or yields. Recommendations on appropriate locations to achieve better design and slow traffic shall be provided during project review by City departments particularly the Engineering, Fire and Planning Departments. 2. Village Circulation Plan Four Circulation Element roadways are located within or adjacent to La Costa Greens. El Camino Real, a Prime Arterial Street (126-foot divided right-of-way), is adjacent to portions of the western Village boundary.

I.RECOMMENDATION That the Planning Commission ADOPT Planning Commission Resolution No. 6125 RECOMMENDING ADOPTION of a Negative Declaration and ADOPT Planning Commission Resolutions No. 6126 and 6127 RECOMMENDING APPROVAL of General Plan Amendment 05-15 and Master Plan Amendment 98-01(G) and ADOPT Planning Commission Resolutions No. 6128 and 6129 APPROVING Site Development Permit 05-18 and Special Use Permit 05-17 based on the findings and subject to the conditions contained therein. II. INTRODUCTION The 7.68-acre project site is located on the east side of El Camino Real between Town Garden Lane and Camino Vida Roble in the Greens Neighborhood 1.1 of the Villages of La Costa Master Plan Local Facilities Management Zone 10. The proposed project consists of a General Plan Amendment to the Land Use Element to change the Land Use designation of the site from Planned Industrial (PI) to Office (O) to allow the development of two medical office buildings. A Master Plan Amendment is required to change the Villages of La Costa Master Plan Land Use and Zoning designations from Planned Industrial (PM) to Office (O). Any development, other than child day care facilities, requires the processing of a Site Development Plan in the Office Zone. A Special Use Permit is required for development adjacent to El Camino Real. The project meets all regulations applicable to these legislative and permitting actions, and staff has no issues with the proposal. III. PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND The applicant, Carltas Company, has requested a General Plan Amendment (GPA), Master Plan Amendment (MPA), Site Development Plan (SDP), and Special Use Permit (SUP) to allow for the construction of two 42,500 square foot medical office buildings on a 7.68 acre site. The site, 77 GPA 05-15/MP 98-01(G)/SDP 05-18/SUP 05-17 - CARLTAS MEDICAL OFFICE MPA/GPA July 19,2006 Page 2 i- Greens Neighborhood 1.1 of the Villages of La Costa Master Plan, has already been graded with the mass grading of the Villages of La Costa Greens project, CT 99-03. The project site is located adjacent and south of the industrial development of Bressi Ranch and access will be provided from Metropolitan Street (off Town Garden Lane) and a shared driveway off El Camino Real. To the north is a graded industrial pad. The property to the south is located within the Village of La Costa Master Plan and is designated Community Facilities (CF), allowing for a future child day care use. Open space currently exists to the east and southeast. To the west is El Camino Real and existing Planned Industrial uses. Both of the medical office buildings are rectangular in shape and are two stories tall. The buildings are mirror images of each other and are placed end to end with a drive aisle placed between the buildings. The buildings are oriented along the length of the existing development pad which is oriented northwesterly/southeasterly while El Camino Real runs north/south. The concrete tilt-up buildings will be painted off-white with tan color trim. Metal accent entry features, decorative cornice trim, green tinted glass windows and granite stone panels enhance the buildings architecture. The buildings mechanical equipment will be placed within masonry mechanical enclosures located on the ground within landscaped areas. The project also includes associated parking, three outdoor patio areas and landscaping within and around the project. ANALYSIS The proposed project is subject to the following plans, ordinances and standards: A. General Plan Office (O) Land Use Designation; B. Villages of La Costa Master Plan MP 98-01; C. Carlsbad Municipal Code, Title 21 (Zoning Ordinance) including: 1. Chapter 21.27 - Office Zone 2. Chapter 21.40 - Scenic Preservation Overlay Zone; D. Comprehensive Land Use Plan for McClellan-Palomar Airport; and E. Local Facilities Management Plan for Zone 10 and Growth Management. The recommendation for approval of 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 utilising both text and tables. A. General Plan The proposed General Plan Amendment to the Land Use Element would change the Land Use designation of the site from Planned Industrial (PI) to Office (O). The proposed Office designation would be compatible with surrounding uses of Planned Industrial (professional office buildings) and Open Space to the north and east. The site is topographically suitable for the development of Office type uses, as the developable portion has been graded for professional office/industrial development. The proposed Office Land Use designation would not result in any unavoidable adverse impacts to the area. The project will not generate a significant increase in average daily vehicle trips and the existing roadways and El Camino Real are capable of handling the proposed vehicle trips. Adequate buffers in the form of a Circulation Element GPA 05-15/MP 98-01(G)/SDP 05-18/SUP 05-17 - CARLTAS MEDICAL OFFICE MPA/GPA July 19, 2006 Page 3 ' I- roadway, El Camino Real, separate the existing industrial land uses to the west from the proposed office site. The project is consistent with the applicable policies and programs of the General Plan. Particularly relevant to the proposed office development are the Land Use, Open Space and Conservation, Circulation, Noise, Housing and Public Safety Elements. Table 1 below indicates how the project complies with these particular elements of the General Plan. TABLE 1 - GENERAL PLAN COMPLIANCE Element Use Classification, Goal, Objective or Program Proposed Use and Improvements Compliance Land Use Commercial development to serve the employment and service needs of Carlsbad residents. The project proposes a General Plan Amendment to Office (O) for the development of medical/professional office services. Yes Open Space and Conservation To preserve, protect and enhance unique open space functions like buffers between uses and wildlife habitats. The project maintains adequate buffers from native habitat areas and is consistent with the adopted Habitat Conservation Plan. Yes Circulation Adequate circulation infrastructure to serve the projected population. The existing El Camino Real roadway is adequate in capacity to handle the traffic generated by the proposed use. Street improvement plans and bonding for the improvements was completed with the Master Tentative Map CT 99-03. Yes Noise Require that a noise study be submitted with all non- residential projects. Enforce the City policy that 55 Leq (h) dBA is the maximum interior noise level for general office uses. Project has been conditioned to submit a noise report showing compliance with interior noise standards. Yes Housing Provision of affordable housing. Project site is not being developed as residential and therefore is not x required to provide affordable housing. Yes Public Safety Provision of emergency water systems and all- weather access roads. All necessary water mains, fire hydrants, and appurtenances must be installed prior to occupancy of any building and all-weather access roads will be maintained throughout construction. Yes GPA 05-15/MP 98-01(G)/SDP 05-18/SUP 05-17 - CARLTAS MEDICAL OFFICE MPA/GPA July 19, 2006 Page 4 i- B. Villages of La Costa Master Plan MP 98-01 The project site is located in the Greens, Village 1.1. of the Villages of La Costa Master Plan. This planning area is designated (Land Use and Zoning) as Planned Industrial in the Master Plan. The proposed Office designation would be compatible with surrounding uses of Planned Industrial (professional office buildings) and Open Space to the north and east. The Master Plan Amendment is to change the Master Plan Land Use and Zoning of Village 1.1 to Office consistent with the proposed Office General Plan Land Use designation. The Master Plan Amendment includes text and map changes to the Master Plan document to reflect the Land Use and Zoning change. C.I Chapter 21.27 - Office (O) Zoning The project proposes a Zone Change from Planned Industrial (PI) to Office (O). The Office Zone (Chapter 21.27 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code) would implement the proposed Office Land Use designation. The Office Zone has a built-in Site Development Plan requirement and a Qualified Overlay Zone is not required. The proposed project complies with the Office Zone as shown in Table 2 below.

Pursuant to Carlsbad Municipal Code Section 21.40.040, a Special Use Permit is required. GPA 05-15/MP 98-01(G)/SDP 05-18/SUP 05-17 - CARLTAS MEDICAL OFFICE MPA/GPA July 19, 2006 Page 5 i- The project is located within Area 4 of the El Camino Real Corridor (College Avenue to Sunfresh Rose Company).

Compliance Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes D. Comprehensive Land Use Plan (CLUP) for McClellan - Palomar Airport•v The project site is located within the Airport Influence Area and approximately 4,000 feet southeast of McClellan-Palomar Airport. The site is outside the 60 Community Noise Equivalent Level (CNEL) noise contour and outside the Runway Protection Zone. The CLUP identifies the proposed Office use as being a compatible use with essentially no interference from aircraft noise. The southerly portion of the site is within the Flight Activity Zone (FAZ), which is an area most likely to experience a crash since it is beneath the flight pattern. The CLUP identifies that the land beneath the flight activity zone areas should be held free of intensive development such as residential at 10 units per acre, high rise development, and all uses which involve large groups of people, (more than 100). The proposed Office Land Use designation would preclude residential uses at that density and the zoning restrictions would preclude high- rise development. Any proposed use involving a large assemblage of people would likely require a Conditional Use Permit, which should be found to be incompatible with the CLUP. As GPA 05-15/MP 98-01(G)/SDP 05-18/SUP 05-17 - CARLTAS MEDICAL OFFICE MPA/GPA July 19, 2006 Page 6 i- the project involves a General Plan Land Use Element Amendment, the project was submitted to the San Diego County Regional Airport Authority (SDCRAA) for a determination of consistency with the McClellan-Palomar Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan (ALUCP). On March 6, 2006, the SDCRAA adopted Resolution 2006-0015 ALUC finding the project conditionally consistent with the ALUCP. The condition added was the restriction that all assembly areas within the proposed project that are located within the FAZ be limited (as defined by the Uniform Building Code Group A Occupancy) to no more than one hundred (100) persons per assembly area in order to be consistent with FAZ guidelines in the McClellan-Palomar Airport ALUCP. E. Local Facilities Management Plan and Growth Management The proposed project is subject to the provisions of the Growth Management Program, as contained in Chapter 21.90 of the Zoning Ordinance and in the approved Zone 10 LFMP. The change to Office uses on the site will have minimal impact on public facilities as the industrial lot was planned to be developed with 137,650 square feet of industrial and/or professional office uses. Thus, the proposed project public facility demand will be in compliance with the public facility assumptions of the Zone 10 LFMP. No special conditions or requirements exist within the Zone 10 LFMP applicable specifically to the subject site. The project is conditioned to pay the appropriate public facilities fee, water and sewer connection fees, traffic impact and school fees to mitigate its impact on these respective facilities. As conditioned, all facility improvements necessary to accommodate the development will be in place prior to, or concurrent with, development. Therefore, the proposed Carltas development is consistent with the Zone 10 LFMP. Table 4 below details the project's conformance with the requirements of the Growth Management Program.

U VILLAGES OF LA COSTA MASTER PLAN GENERAL PLAN AND LAND USE PROVISIONS 2. Multiple Family Housingl" In order to provide for a variety of housing types and density ranges, four Multiple Family Housing neighborhoods are provided in the Master Plan. Multiple Family Housing is typically located in Neighborhoods designated RMH - Residential Medium-High on the General Plan. These Neighborhoods shall be designed to provide densities of approximately 8.0 to 11.5 dwelling units per acre. A total of 505 multiple-family dwelling units are projected by the Master Plan. 2.4.2 Open Space Preservation and enhancement of Open Space is an important aspect of this Master Plan. Areas designated Open Space by the General Plan constitutes approximately 892 acres or 48% of the Master Plan area. The Master Plan addresses open space for the preservation of natural resources (HCP/OMSP), open space for outdoor recreation and open space for public health and safety. The Master Plan identifies additional open space areas within many of the residential neighborhoods. Each of the Village Land Use Plans includes an Open Space Program (Sections 5.2.5, 6.2.4, and 7.2.4) which describes the distribution of open space within the respective Village. 2.4.3 Planned Industrial Office The Master Plan provides for one Planned Industrial Office site. This land use category allows for research and development, light manufacturing, warehousing, storage, business and professional offices, and utility office uses, including medical. The General Plan also allows for agricultural and outdoor recreation uses on lots of one acre or more as interim uses. JHAWLC MP 2-8 February. 2005 April 2006 VILLAGES OF LA COSTA MASTER PLAN _ DEVELOPMENT REVIEW PROCESS i- &6 - Planned Industrial Permits Prior to development within areas designated Planned Industrial by Exhibit 2 3, Master Plan Zoning, a Planned Industrial Permit shall be submitted and approved pursuant to Chapter 21.34 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code. 3.7 Conditional Uses A Conditional Use Permit processed pursuant to Chapter 21.42 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code shall be submitted and approved prior to the development of a fire station, hospital, church or community services facility (all of which require a CUP). Community recreation centers located in neighborhoods which are not subject to the Planned Development Ordinance shall also require the granting of a Conditional Use Permit. The Conditional Use Permit shall be consistent with the concepts, goals and standards specified in this Master Plan to ensure compatibility with all appropriate City policies and ordinances. After final approval of each Conditional Use Permit, grading, building and other ministerial permits for the development of the site may be issued provided that all conditions of approval and public facility requirements have been satisfied per the relevant Zone 10 and Zone 1 1 Local Facilities Management Plans. Each Conditional Use Permit shall be submitted and processed as set forth in Chapter 21.42, Conditional Uses, of the Carlsbad Municipal Code. 3.8 Child Day Care Center A child day care center is permitted in the Villages of La Costa within the La Costa Greens area designated Community Facilities on Exhibit 2-3, Master Plan Zoning. The proposed day care center, located along El Camino Real, is subject to the provisions of Section 21.83.080, Development Standards For Child Day Care Centers, of the Carlsbad Municipal Code. A child day care center located directly adjacent to a Planned Industrial (PM) Planning Area 1.1, designated for Office ..(O) zoning district permitted uses, zoned area is subject to the limitations and provisions within Code Section 21.83 .060 (Child Care) regarding the potential health and safety risks associated with hazardous materials used in the nearby businesses.

Child day care center is defined as a facility other than a family day care home which provides non-medical care, protection, and supervision for children under eighteen years of age for periods of less than twenty-four hours per day. Child day care centers include preschools through kindergarten, nursery schools, employer-sponsored child day care facilities, and before- and after-school recreational programs, but do not include public or private elementary schools. 3.9 Site Development Plans A Site Development Plan processed pursuant to Chapter 21.06 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code shall be submitted and approved prior to the development of apartment projects which include more than 4 dwelling units^asd for single- family home neighborhoods with a minimum lot size of 7,500 square feet and greater, and for any development in the Office Zone (Planning Area 1.1). The Site Development Plan shall be consistent with the concepts, goals and standards specified in this Master Plan. After final approval of each Site Development Plan, grading, building and other ministerial permits for the development of the site may be issued provided that all conditions of approval and public facility requirements have been satisfied. 3.10 Public Facility Phasing The Zone 10 and Zone 11 Local Facilities Management Plans contain detailed development phasing programs for eleven public facilities covered by the City of Carlsbad Citywide Public Facility Plan. These plans ensure that public facilities will be in place when they are needed. The Master Plan will be developed in multiple phases. Each phase has specific offsite and onsite improvements that must be provided prior to or concurrent with development. The Citywide Public Facilities plan established performance standards for public facilities. These performance standards were adhered to by the Zone 10 and Zone 11 Local Facilities Management Plans to ensure the appropriate timing of facilities and services. All public facility performance standards identified in the Local Facilities Management Plans and any amendments thereto must be complied with as the Master Plan develops. 3-5 JHAYVLC MP December. 2000 April 2006 VILLAGES OF LA COSTA MASTER PLAN DEVELOPMENT REVIEW PROCESS i- The phasing of public facilities is addressed within each of the Village Development Plan chapters of the Master Plan. Public facilities phasing for La Costa Greens is discussed in Section 5.4 and illustrated on Exhibits 5-6,7, 8,9, and 10. The phasing of public facilities for La Costa Ridge is described in Section 6.4 and shown on Exhibits 6-6,7, 8, and 9. Public facilities phasing for La Costa Oaks is described in Section 7.4 and depicted on Exhibit 7-6, 7, 8, 9, and 10. 3-6 JHAWLC MP December. 2000 April 2006 103 VILLAGES OF LA COSTA LA COSTA GREENS MASTER PLAN VILLAGE DEVELOPMENT PLAN \- 5.2 Village Land Use Plan The La Costa Greens Village consists of approximately 660 acres. Generally located around the north course of the La Costa Resort golf course, the La Costa Greens Village is bounded to the south by Alga Road and by West Bluff Plaza and El Camino Real to the west. Poinsettia Lane, which extends northeasterly from El Camino Real, will serve as a primary pedestrian and vehicular corridor within the community. The La Costa Greens Village Development Plan, Exhibit 5-1, envisions a full spectrum of land uses for the La Costa Greens Village. As defined by the La Costa Greens Village Development Plan Table, Exhibit 5-A, the La Costa Greens Village will provide for a wide range of residential products, active and passive recreation areas, natural open space, a potential elementary school site, a community facilities site, a child daycare site, an RV storage site, and a planned industrial site Office site. As shown on Exhibit 5-2, individual La Costa Greens neighborhoods are located within the larger General Plan Land Use category areas, which are also shown on Exhibit 2-1, General Plan Land Use. In order to determine the number of dwelling units allowed within any particular land use category, the Growth Management Control Point of the category is multiplied by the number of net developable acres located within the category area. The number of General Plan Dwelling Units and Maximum Allowable Dwelling Units for each General Plan Land Use category are shown on Exhibit 5-B, Residential Density Consistency Table. Dwelling units may be clustered within a General Plan Land Use Category provided the density of each neighborhood falls within the density range allowed by the General Plan Land Use category (see Section 2.1). The density of an individual neighborhood, therefore, may exceed the Growth Management Control Point as long as all the La Costa Greens Village neighborhoods located within the General Plan category do not, in aggregate, exceed the Allowable Dwelling Units shown in Exhibit 5-B. 5-2 JHAWLC MP October. 2003 April 2006 03Z u Q O £Ou O J 03 OHw a:r ^ ^^^ P"H PH H ZW en S ZPH tJo w w o Q" r^CC W Oa u H S•H ffl ooooW UOtfCM^.S- Sw Z Ja.a;uHoo 3 uo1 0 N, tiw C ?< QO0M<£nea WZ Q. a iQ.O 1 SS = 3 < BO E J 3 00 5 U 3 •< O Z Zo NOIXVN3t, *+j S a M w us ^< g Z |y ^Cj ^o 2 %vyp% •ft '•:>>". r* ~ **)• "? v': * ;& £\ t~j,~ * ti '* * ^tT" ••"' .•••',' ,; f1'. iy: >'; J fcc V 1C.

The required area of .34 acre, exclusive of driveways and approaches, provides for 20 square feet per dwelling unit within the planned development neighborhoods (those with minimum lot areas less than 7,500 sq. ft. or gated). The .34 required common area assumes that rental apartments will be provided in Neighborhood 1.15. If ownership units are offered, however, then up to an additional .08 acre of RV storage area is required. If Neighborhood 1.12 applies as a planned development for a gated community, then an additional 760 square feet of RV storage space will be required. Independent storage may be provided onsite, within a particular development to serve the neighborhood. The common storage area may also be reduced if the RV storage spaces required to accommodate a neighborhood are provided for within a particular development. The RV storage site must be screened from public view by a fence, wall, or landscaping. 5.2.4 Industrial Office The La Costa Greens Village Development Plan identifies a 7.9-acre industrial Office site. Planned Industrial Planning Area 1.1 is located in the northwest corner of La Costa Greens, to the east side of El Camino Real. The area is designated Planned Industrial Office and Related Commercial (O) by the General Plan. This designation provides for business and professional offices, businesses and light industries engaged primarily in research and/or ^testing, compatible light manufacturing, and certain commercial uses which cater to and are ancillary to the uses allowed in the P M Zone. This classification designates areas which are compatible with and environmentally- suited for office uses. Permitted uses and potential conditional uses are identified in sections (d) Permitted Uses and (e) Conditional Uses of Neighborhood 1.1 section of this Master Plan. 5.2.5 Open Space 5-11 JHAWLC MP February, 2005 April 2006 VILLAGES OF LA COSTA LA COSTA GREENS MASTER PLAN VILLAGE DEVELOPMENT PLAN Per Section 21.38.060 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code, all Master Plans must provide fifteen percent (15%) of the total Master Plan area in an integrated open space program which addresses 5-12 JHAWLC MP February, 2005 April 2006 VILLAGES OF LA COSTA MASTER PLAN LA COSTA GREENS VILLAGE DEVELOPMENT PLAN 5.2.6 Circulation JHAWLC MP The Zone 10 Local Facilities Management Plan (LFMP) addresses all Circulation Element roads located within the boundaries of La Costa Greens. The La Costa Greens Circulation Plan is illustrated by Exhibit 5-4. Typical street sections are provided within the master plan. In general new local streets within the master plan will include landscaped parkways having a minimum width of four and one-half feet located between the curb and sidewalk. Sidewalks having a minimum width of five feet shall be provided on both sides of all streets unless the Planning Commission or City Council determines that it is appropriate to construct sidewalks on one side of the street only. 1. Traffic Calming During the buildout of the Villages of La Costa Master Plan the City Council may approve standards for the use of traffic calming devices. Should the use of traffic calming devices be approved by the City Council such devices may be incorporated into project designs for neighborhoods which have not yet received discretionary approvals for development or into existing developed neighborhoods. The inclusion of such devices shall not require substantial modifications to the neighborhood concept designs or yields. Recommendations on appropriate locations to achieve better design and slow traffic shall be provided during project review by City departments particularly the Engineering, Fire and Planning Departments. 2. Village Circulation Plan x Four Circulation Element roadways are located within or adjacent to La Costa Greens. El Camino Real, a Prime Arterial Street (126-foot divided right-of-way), is adjacent to portions of the western Village boundary.

These residential products are located in Neighborhoods 1.3 and 1.6 through 1.17. Area 1.3 also includes a permanent Recreational Vehicle storage facility. Additionally, Neighborhood 1.1 has been established for Planned Industrial Office uses, including medical offices, and Neighborhood 1.2 is planned for Community Facilities. It is intended that day-care facilities, places of worship, youth and/or 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 l.H provide for utility corridors. Specific development standards and criteria for industrial, office, 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 Section, 5.7.4.

A Fire Protection Zone, as defined and illustrated in Section 4.7.9 and which separates developed areas and manufactured slopes from HCP Open Space Areas, will be incorporated where necessary so as to have limited, if any, impact on the Open Space Areas. The final location of the zone will be determined during review of the Tentative Subdivision Map or other permit process applicable to development of the neighborhood. Common streetscape and landscape areas shall conform to community requirements as established within this Master Plan. Street trees, landscape zones, entries, irrigation systems, walls, fencing, etc., have been selected to provide consistency in design and quality. Sight distance and open corridors shall be required per Section 4.9.3. JHAYVLC MP 5-89 December, 2000 April 2006 I a* REENS| LA COSTA GCO<nUJ AN REVIEW PROC_iQ.

Mr. Neu introduced Agenda Item 2 and stated Senior Planner Van Lynch would make the staff presentation. Commissioner Segall recused himself and stepped down from the dias. Mr. Lynch gave the staff presentation and stated he would be available to answer any questions. Chairperson Montgomery asked if there were any questions of staff. Commissioner Whitton stated he was concerned about southbound traffic which would need to make a u- turn to access the medical center off of El Camino Real and the potential traffic hazard this could present on the road. Bob Wojcik Deputy City Engineer referenced the signalized access point on Town Garden Road and stated the intersection would be the main access point for the medical center. Commissioner Baker asked if the access along the property line would be a street or a driveway and if the access would be used by the day care as well as the medical center. Mr. Wojcik stated the driveway will serve the day care and the medical center. Chairperson Montgomery asked if the access had a radius on the curbs coming in and out. Mr. Wojcik replied yes.
