A RESOLUTION OF INTENT TO VACATE A
PORTION OF VAN ALLEN WAY, FROM
FARADAY AVENUE TO ITS NORTHERLY
TERMINUS, STV 11-01
DEPT. DIRECTOR
CITY ATTORNEY
CITY MANAGER
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Adopt Resolution No. 2013-097 declaring the intention to vacate a portion of Van Allen Way,
from Faraday Avenue to its northerly terminus, STV 11-01 and to set a public hearing. Van Allen Way
is generally located north of Faraday Avenue, west of College Boulevard.
ITEM EXPLANATION:
All three (3) property owners fronting Van Allen Way, north of Faraday Avenue have requested the
vacation of Van Allen Way, originally dedicated per Parcel Map No. 17971. The property owners are:
1) The GC Net Lease (Carlsbad) Investor, LLC, owner of Parcel 1 of Parcel Map No. 17971, 2)
Mararisk Carlsbad, LLC, owner of Parcel 2 Parcel Map No. 17971, and 3) Life Technologies
Corporation, owner of Parcel A of ADJ 540.
The portion of Van Allen Way to be vacated extends approximately 530 feet north from Faraday
Avenue. Since Van Allen Way is currently improved, vacating this street this will result in Van Allen
Way, north of Faraday Avenue, becoming a private street.
Background
Van Allen Way was dedicated and constructed around 1997 as part of The Carlsbad Spectrum project
to serve those parcels fronting Van Allen Way created by Parcel Map No. 17971. The three
properties that front the portion of Van Allen Way to be vacated are Parcels 1 and 2 of Parcel Map
17971 and Parcel A of ADJ 540.
In June 2011, the city planner conditionally-approved an amendment to a non-residential Planned Unit
Development application for Life Technologies, PUD 09-02(B). Among the conditions, the Developer
must obtain approval of a street vacation to vacate a portion of Van Allen Way to make it a private
street.
Since Van Allen Way contains existing public utilities, an easement will be reserved over Van Allen
Way for public utility and access purposes. Utility companies and pertinent City departments have
been notified ofthe proposed street vacation, and no objections were received.
The attached resolution establishes the City Council's intent to vacate the street right-of-way and sets
a City Council public hearing date. A second resolution will be presented for the City Council's action
at said following hearing.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
The proposed easement vacation does not qualify as a "project" under the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA) per Public Resources Code Section 21065 and State CEQA Guidelines Section
15378 in that it has no potential to cause either a direct physical change in the environment or a
reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment and therefore does not require
environmental review.
FISCAL IMPACT:
That portion of Van Allen Way, north of Faraday Ave was granted to the City for a no fee cost
acquisition and the City will vacate said right-of-way for no fee. The owner has paid the standard fee
for processing this vacation. Approval of this vacation will result in a nominal cost savings as the
street maintenance for Van Allen Way is transferred to the property owners.
