Item 10; page 1 CITY OF CARLSBAD -AGENDA BILL AB# MTG. DEPT. 22,298 5/17/16 CED HOEHN MOTORS AUTO RETAIL DISTRICT SP 186{E) DEPT. DIRECTOR CITY ATTORNEY CITY MANAGER RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council hold a public hearing and introduce an Ordinance approving Specific Plan Amendment SP 186(E} to 1} add an Automotive Retail District; 2} expand the architectural guidelines to allow for contemporary architecture within the Automotive Retail District; and 3} add a review process and development standards within the Automotive Retail District, as recommended by the Planning Commission. ITEM EXPLANATION: Project I Planning Commission I City Council SP 186(E} I RA I X RA = Recommended approval X = Final city decision-making authority On April 20, 2016, the Planning Commission recommended approval {5-1, Goyarts opposed} of Specific Plan Amendment SP 186(E} to 1} add an Automotive Retail District; 2} expand the architectural guidelines to allow for contemporary architecture within the Automotive Retail District; and 3} add a review process and development standards within the Automotive Retail District. The properties affected by the Specific Plan Amendment are currently developed with two auto dealerships, Porsche and Volvo, and are addressed as 6800 and 6830 Avenida Encinas. Discussion at the Planning Commission primarily focused on the proposal to allow for contemporary architecture for the Volvo and Porsche dealerships, which are adjacent to Interstate 5 to the east and Avenida Encinas to the west. Commissioner Goyarts expressed concern with respect to how the contemporary architecture would blend in with the surrounding development. Commissioner Siekmann requested that consideration be given to utilizing trees in the landscaped setback to soften the views of the auto dealerships from the freeway. Commissioner L'Heureux and Chairperson Anderson suggested that warmer and more traditional architectural features, such as wood or brick, be considered in future remodels to blend in with the surrounding area. On May 11, 2016, the California Coastal Commission (CCC} approved the Local Coastal Program Amendment associated with the General Plan Update. A number of modifications were included as part of the approval, one of which impacts the exhibits attached to SP 186(E}. Specifically, Figure 2 and Exhibit A have been updated to reflect the CCC's desire to protect the existing visitor commercial uses (i.e., hotels and a restaurant) for the properties located off of Macadamia Drive (Lots 1, 8, 9 and 10 of Exhibit A}. Originally, the exhibits reflected City Council's September 2015 approval to change the General Plan Land Use designation from Travel Services Commercial/Community Commercial (TS/C) to General Commercial (GC}. As a result of the CCC's recent action, these properties are now shown as Visitor Commercial (VC} in the exhibits attached to SP 186(E). The changes were not considered by the Planning Commission as the CCC had not approved the modifications at the time the project was reviewed. No text changes are required to SP 186(E} and the development standards will remain the same.

ARCHITECTURAL GUIDELINES I.(A) ARCHITECTURAL THEME All buildings and other architectural features within Carlsbad Tracts 81-5 and 81-6 shall be designed and built with a Spanish architectural theme, except for APN # 214450-14 (Volvo) and APN #214- 450-15 (Volvo) and APN # 214450-16 (Porsche) which propose to be designated as an Automotive Retail district (Area C) for Lots 14, 15 and 16. Specifically, they Existing development in Area A and B shall follow the "Spanish-Mediterranean" and "Mission" styles of architecture prominent in early Southern California development. Existing development in Area C may utilize an alternate architectural style for redevelopment. Automotive retail uses relyies upon the recognition of branded architecture, (i.e. using architecture to express identity.) Therefore. alternate architectural styles, from the Spanish Mediterranean and Mission styles ofSpec.ific Plan 186 (SP-186), shall provide a more relevant style of the automotive dealership's cmporate architecture which includes high gualitv design and detailing consistent with the Commercial I Visitor Serving Overlay Zone and the Land Use Element and Community Design of the City;, of Carlsbad's General Plan. The goal of this alternate architectural style is to embody its automotive uses, and be clustered and limited to these three lots adjacent to the freeway. II.(B) DESIGN ELEMENTS Since the project sites are highly visible, it is re,quired that all portions of each structure be aesthetically pleasing. Buildings shall be designed to provide an interesting facade from all elevations. Architectural interest and relief can be provided by such elements as projections, recesses, arcades, door and window articulation, molded wall details and variations in colors and building materials. Architectural design shall avoid the appearance of large building masses. Breaking up buildings into smaller components and staggering their site placement will reduce the scale and impact of building mass. Varying rooflines, ve1iical architectural elements, interesting facade treatment and material use should also be incorporated into the design to satisfy this obje.ctive. Site development, as well as the buildings1 architectural quality, plays an important role in creating an appearance to help draw in the user. Correct sign location and appearance, entry identification, effective on-site circulation and orientation are all important factors in successful site development. Auto and pedestrian circulation must be well thought-out with an organized flow and identification of special site features such as enriched paving, walls, trellises, special lighting and fountains. Buildings should be located to make best use of the site. Correct placement can provide exterior open space framed by the building(s), creating alcoves or a courtyard as expanded use areas and allowing orientation toward off-site views. The correct building form and location develops a relationship between building and parking areas where neither overpowers the other. 25 Item 10; page 31 Automotive retail design elements are based on the combination of two functionally defined volumes: a rectangular volume housing the workshop and warehouse for the service and parts functions and a distinctly different volume housing the sales and administrative functions. The architectural volume housing the sales function needs to be visually discernable to the general public, featured prominently on the site, and ideally be oriented toward the freeway and A venida Encinas to take advantage of the site opportunities. The architectural volume housing the workshop and warehouse function are typically lower in height and in a supporting role to the sales functions. A customer service and drop off area, protected from the elements by a canopy or the structure of the building typically links these two volumes to effectively service the customers and vehicles. · These areas must be arranged so that both the connections with the outside (approaches, customer parking spaces, deliveries) as well as the internal, process-oriented links between the sales, ~orkshop and the warehouse work efficiently. Future extensions or additions to the sales, workshop and warehouse should be accomm0dated into the redevelopment to be responsive to increasing sales figures and subsequent development permits. These design elements need to be "site-adapt" to accommodate the site's geometry, opportunities, constraints, surrounding development and vehicular car inventory requirements of the individual manufacturer, thereby preventing standardized corporate development solutions. Depending on the site's available area, an underground parking level, or rooftop parking deck or parking structure may be necessary and would be appropriately screened to enhance the architecture and to screen the cars from outside views by the structure walls and/or landscaping. (C) ARCHITECTURAL ELEMENTS The buildings which incorporate elements of the "Spanish-Mediterranean" and "Mission" styles of -,architecture, shall use bold forms with large-scaled features. Prominent elements shall be wide arches, heavy wood members, thick looking stucco walls and columns, clay tile roofs and the appearance of deep inset features. Walls and columns must have rounded edges and include some molded relief. More than one shade of stucco color from off-white, beige to ochre can be used. Arcaded walkways with stucco columns and tiled roofs should be used on ground floor level. Upper floors can use wood colonnades and balconies with well worked wood, stucco or iron balustrades. Hipped roofs (not mansard roofs) are typically used with elaborated rafter rails or clipped eves and a molded cornice and corbels. These roofs can run up to meet a vertical parapet-type wall with a built-up or embellished cornice. · Gable roofs, if used, should use a curvilinear line prevalent m the "Mission" style. The deep inset appearance of doors and windows can be produced by a built-up wall area around them. Special doors and windows can have this embellished further with decorative tile and detailed with iron grill work. Further detail can be added by use of exposed and elaborated second-story floor joist that can be extended to support shallow balconies. Canvas awnings may be permitted over windows to add additional color. All lighting shall be controlled to prohibit direct view from off site. 26 Item 10; page 32 Good examples of this type of architecture in Carlsbad are the San Diego Trust and Savings Bank, located at the comer of Elm A venue and El Camino Real and the interior elevations of the Plaza De La Costa Real project at the comer of La Costa Boulevard and El Camino Real, with the exception of the Security Pacific Bank. All development within these tracts shall comply with the requirements described in governing specific plan #186 and site development plan #82-3, except for APN # 214-450-14 (Volvo) and APN #214-450-15 (Volvo) and APN # 214-450-16 (Porsche) which propose to be designated as an Automotive Retail district (Area C) for Lots 14, 15 and 16. Within Area C, the Automotive Retail d9istrict, a more modern streamlined and urban architectural style is contemplated to· embody the motor and electrical vehicles that are now represented in auto dealerships. Linear planes, cu~ed facades .. exposed steel and masonry construction, tower elements, and the use of glass and metal materials emphasize the technical sophistication of today's automotive brands. High-end finishes and products, some that are sole sourced bv automotive manufacturers, are depicted in the architecture to give a unique and upscale image aligned with the vehicles being marketed. The architecture is designed to showcase the uniqueness of the vehicles. The concept of minimalism and restraint is expressed in the architectural form, materials, colors, and lighting. These design elements are utilized strategically to provide a strong, straightforward and unique identitfy separate and distinct from the adjacent tourist I recreational, general commercial, and ·residential medium density land uses of the surrounding development. Automotive dealership design benefits from the input of a national architectural firm representing the manufacturer and a local architectural firm representing the dealer to create a unique architectural solution, site adapted to the area, and that will become the "sign" for their unique brands. Key signage features should be used to enhance the architecture, identify and help direct the various types of customer and service professionals and not "be" the 27 Item 10; page 33 ALL DEVELOPMENTS SHALL INCORPORATE APPROVED MATERIALS AND ARCIDTECTURAL ELEMENTS Approved Exterior Materials Tile roofing; barrel or flat, terracotta or earth tones Stucco in off-white, beige or ochre colors Heavy wood members; including beams, joists, doors and& casements Decorative ceramic tile Wrought iron Canvas awnings Bricks, pavers and quarry tile Alternate Architectural Stvle -Automotive Uses (Area C) Flat roofs and multiple rooflines Stucco -lie-ht and muted tones (field color) and saturated tones {accent color) Steel and masonry construction exposed Non-reflective metal finishes, panels and cladding Structural awnings or canopies Pavers and quarry stone Enhanced;exterior shielded light incorporated into the building facades to accent specific areas See Exhibit C 28 Item 10; page 34 Approved -Architectural Elements Arcaded walkways/corridor Deep inset openings Hip roofs Parapet walls with molded cornice Embellished or molded cornice Heavy looking columns/colonnade Molded wall treatments Balustrades of stucco, wrought iron or turned wood Alabaster window forms Courtyards Corbels Arches/archways Fountains Alternate Architectural Style -Automotive Uses (Area C) Curved facades and streamlined forms Linear planes and/or slots Fa£ade width to height ratio of3:l (1/3 open face to 2/3 closed face) .

CASE NAME: HOEHN MOTORS AUTO RETAIL DISTRICT CASE NO.: SP 186(E) WHEREAS, Ted Hoehn, "Developer/Owner," has filed a verified application with the City of Carlsbad regarding property described as Lots 14, 15, and 16 of Carlsbad Tract 81-5, in the City of Carlsbad, County of San Diego, State of California, according to map thereof No. 10899, filed in the office of the County Recorder of San Diego County, April 11, 1984 ("the Property"); and WHEREAS, said verified application constitutes a request for a Specific Plan Amendment, on file in the Carlsbad Planning Division, SP 186(E) -HOEHN MOTORS AUTO RETAIL DISTRICT as provided by Government Code Section 65453; and WHEREAS, the proposed SP 186(E) -HOEHN MOTORS AUTO RETAIL DISTRICT is set forth and attached in the draft City Council Ordinance, Exhibit "X" dated, April 20, 2016, and attached hereto; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission did, on April 20, 2016, hold a duly noticed public hearing as prescribed by law to consider said request; and ·· WHEREAS, at said public hearing, upon hearing and considering all testimony and arguments, if any, of all persons desiring to be heard, sald Commission considered aU factors relating to the Specific Plan Amendment; and Item 10; page 50 1 2 3 4 6 7 8 9 _10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 WHEREAS, on September 6, 2005, the City Council approved SP 186(8), as described . ' and conditioned in Planning Commission Resolution No. 5928 and City Council Ordinance No. NS-769. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED by the Planning Commission of the City of Carlsbad as follows: 1. A) B) That the foregoing recitations are true and correct. That based on the evidence presented at the public hearing, the Commission RECOMMENDS APPROVAL of SP 186(E) -HOEHN MOTORS AUTO RETAIL DISTRICT based on the following findings and subject to the following conditions: The Planning Commission finds that the project, as conditioned herein, is in conformance with the Elements of the City's General Plan and the_ Occidental-Jewitt Specific Plan based on the facts set forth in the staff report dated April 20, 2016, including but not limited to the following: a. b. c. d. Land Use and Community Design -The proposed Auto Retail District for Lots 14, 15, and 16 of SP 186(E} creates a separate district which addresses the corporate branding needs associated with auto-related land uses. The proposed revisions to SP 186 are consistent with the intent and purpose of the General Commercial Land Use and zoning designations. The proposed Auto Retail District specifies that all buildings will be limited to a maximum height of 35 feet, with allowable architectural projections up to 45 feet. The height limitations are consistent with what is currently allowed in SP 186, as well as the Car Country Specific Plan and the existing Bluewater Crossing development, which is located northwest of the project site. Therefore, the scale and character of any future remodel will be appropriate with the setting and intended use. Mobility-The proposal does not require improvements to the existing street system as it only allows additional land use ·flexibility and creates new development standards, as ·well as a process to redevelop the existing auto dealerships. Any future remodel at either the Porsche or Volvo dealerships will be accordingly-conditioned to pay all necessary impact fees. Noise -Lots 14, 15, and 16 of SP 186 are located adjacent to Interstate 5. Pursuant to the Noise Element, the lots are located within the 70+ Community Noise Equivalent Level (CNEL) existing and future noise contour. Future development within the Auto Retail District will require a noise study prepared by a certified consultant to ensure that the noise levels are adequately attenuated and consistent with the General Plan and Noise Guidelines Manual. Economy, Business Diversity and Touri~i:r, -The proposal to create an Auto Retail District for Lots 14, 15, and 16 of ~P.: ~86 addresses the corporate branding needs associated with auto-related land us_e_s and facilitates the redevelopment of two existing auto dealerships through the allowance for an alternate architectural style. Ultimately, the new Automotive Retail District will enhance the climate for conducting commercial business in Carlsbad. PC RESO NO. 7157 . -2~ Item 10; page 51 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 2. 3, 4. 5. 6. 7. The proposed Specific Plan Amendment to add an Automotive Retail District for Lots 14, 15, and 16 of SP 186(E) would facilitate the redevelopment of the existing auto dealerships. SP 186(E) would not be detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or welfare bf the City in that the amendment to the Occidental-Jewitt Specific Plan provides development standards and a development review process for Lots 14, 15, and 16 of SP 186(E), which ' . ensures that the scale of future development complements the existing neighborhood. That the Occidental-Jewitt Specific Plan will continue to be the controlling document for properties ·1ocated within the boundaries of the Specific Plan. It will continue to further the objectives and policies of the General Plan and not obstruct their attainment. The proposed amendment to the Occidental-Jewitt Specific 'Plan is consistent with the intent and purpose of the existing Specific Plan, which ensures that th.e commercial development will conform to the community goals and values associated with the. General Commercial (GC) General. Plan Land Use designatidn. In addition, the proposed Autci'Retail District specifies that all buildings will be limited to a maximum height of 35 feet, with allowable architectural projections up to 45 feet. The height limitations are consistent with what is currently allowed in SP 186. The project is consistent with the Citywide Facilities and Improvements Plan, the Local Facilities Management Plan for Zone 22 and all City public facility policies and ordinances. The project includes elements or has been conditioned to construct or provide funding to ensure that all facilities and improvements regarding sewer collection and treatment; water; drainage; circulation; fire; schools; parks and other recreational facilities; libraries; government administrative facilities; and open space, related to the project will be installed to serve new development prior to or concurrent with need. Specifically, a. The Public Facility fee is required to be paid by Council Policy No. 17 and will be collected prior to the issuance of building permit. All necessary public facilities can be provided concurrent with need, and adequate provisions have been provided to implement · those portions of the capital improvement program applicable to the subject property. The City Planner has determined that the project is· exempt from the provisions of CEQA, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 1506l(B)(3} (General Rule) and City of Carlsbad Municipal Code Chapter 19.04.070(A)(l}(c), ge11eral rule exemption where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment. The proposed revisions to the Specific Plan are similar to minor Zoning Ordinance amendments and therefore are exempt from environmental analysis. The Planning Commission h.as reviewed each of the exactions imposed on the Developer contained in this resolution, and hereby finds, in. this case, that the exactions are imposed to mitigate impacts caused by or reasonably related to the project, and the extent and the degree of the exaction is in rough proportionality to the impact caused by the project.

April 20, 2016 Project Planner: Shannon Werneke Project Engineer: N/A SUBJECT: SP 186(E)-HOEHN MOTORS AUTO RETAIL DISTRICT-Request for a recommendation of approval of a Specific Plan Amendment SP 186(E) to 1) add an Automotive Retail District; 2) expand the architectural guidelines to allow for contemporary architecture within the Automotive Retail District; and 3) add a review process and development standards within the Automotive Retail District. The properties affected by the Specific Plan Amendment are located west of Interstate 5, on the east side of Avenida Encinas, in between Palomar Airport Road to the north and Poinsettia Lane to the south, addressed as 6800 and 6830 Avenida Encinas, within Local Facilities Management Zone 22. The City Planner has determined that this project is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15061(8)(3) (General Rule) and City of Carlsbad Municipal Code Chapter 19.04.070(A)(l)(c}, minor municipal code amendments that do not involve physical modifications or lead to physical improvements beyond those typically exempt. I. RECOMMENDATION That the Planning Commission ADOPT Planning Commission Resolution No. 7157 RECOMMENDING APPROVAL of Specific Plan Amendment SP 186(E) based on the findings and subject to the conditions contained therein. II. PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND Background Specific Plan 186 (SP 186), also known as the Occidental-Jewitt Specific Plan, adopted on January 18, 1983 {City Council Ordinance No. 9660), consists of a 16-lot, 23.60-acre commercial subdivision located on the northeast corner of Poinsettia Lane and Avenida Encinas and adjacent to Interstate 5 to the east. SP 186 was adopted as a tool to implement the goals and policies of the General Plan, as well as to provide a set of development standards, including architectural standards, to encourage high-quality development of the area, Except where noted in the Specific Plan, SP 186 supersedes the development standards of the underlying C-2, C-T, and Commercial/Visitor-Serving Overlay zoning designations. The architectural guidelines of SP 186, the focal point for the subject amendment, currently limit the design and style of all development within the Specific Plan to "Spanish-Mediterranean" and "Mission" styles. When the Specific Plan was originally approved in 1982, it was believed that a cohesive architectural style would encourage high-quality development. The area encompassing SP 186 is built-out with a mixture of visitor-serving and commercial uses. Area A of SP 186, which comprises the southern portion of the Specific Plan, ls developed with more traditional commercial-tourist uses, including a motel, hotel and a restaurant. Area B, comprising the northern two-thirds of SP 186, is developed with a variety of commercial and office uses, including a medical office, hotels, and two auto dealerships. The Hoehn Porsche dealership is located at the northern boundary of SP 186, on the east side of Avenida Encinas, and is identified as Lot 16 of CT 81-5 (6800 0 Item 10; page 60 SP 186(E)-HOEHN MOTORS AUTO RETAIL DISTRICT April 20, 2016 Page 2 Avenida Encinas, APN 214-450-16). The Volvo dealership, which is independently-owned, is located adjacent to and south of the Hoehn Porsche dealership. The Volvo dealership comprises two parcels which are identified as Lots 14 and 15 of CT 81-5 (6830 Avenida' Encinas, APN 214-450-14, -15). As required pursuant to the architectural guidelines of SP 186, the auto dealerships were designed to incorporate Spanish-Mediterranean architectural features. Table A below includes the General Plan designations, zoning and current land uses for the project site and the surrounding properties.

To allow for corporate recognition at the subject auto dealerships (i.e., Porsche and Volvo), the project applicant, Hoehn Porsche, has submitted a, request to amend SP 186 to allow for contemporary architectural styles for lots 14, 15 and 16 of CT 81-5 and SP 186. More specifically, the applicant proposes to remove lots 14, 15, and 16 from Area B of SP 186 and to create a new land use district, "Area C", the "Automotive Retail District". This new district is intended to guide redevelopment and enhancements to the auto dealerships (i.e., lots 14- 16 of SP 186) and any related accessory uses. Architectural guidelines, as well as examples of contemporary architecture, are proposed to be included as part of the new Automotive Retail District. In addition to the proposal to allow for contemporary architecture in proposed Area C of SP 186, the applicant proposes to amend SP 186 to add the same development review process included as part of the Car Country Specific Pian. The new process add~ three categories or levels of review: Exemptions, Minor Site Development Plan, and Site Development Plan. A Minor Site Development Plan requires approval by the City Planner, while a Site Development Plan requires approval by the Planning Commission. Because the properties are located in the coastal•zone, unless a project is found to be exempt pursuant to Carlsbad Municipal Code (CMC) Chapter 21.201, a Coastal Development Permit will also be required. Item 10; page 61 SP 186{E) -HOEHN MOTORS AUTO RETAIL DISTRICT April 20, 2016 Finally, the applicant proposes the addition of development standards which are unique to Area C and which more closely align with the development standards of the underlying General Commercial (C-2) zone, as well as the Car Country Specific Plan. This includes standards such as setbacks, building coverage, parking, landscaping, signage, storage, fencing, lighting and roof equipment. Other changes include updates to code references· and City Planner title changes. The proposed changes to the Occidental-Jewitt Specific Plan, SP 186{E), are shown in a strikethrough/underline exhibit attached to the City Council draft ordinance. While the applicant of Hoehn Porsche filed the subject application, the owner of the Volvo dealership, which is proposed to be included in the proposed Automotive Retail District, is also supportive of the request.· Please see Att~chment 4 for reference. The proposed project is subject to the following plans, ordinances and standards as analyzed within the following section of this staff report: A. General Plan Land Use Element -General Commercial (GC} Land Use Designation; B. Occidental-Jewitt Specific Plan (SP 186(E}); C. General Commercial and Commercial/Visitor-Serving Overlay Zone -(C-2-Q) {CMC Chapter 21.28 and 21.208); D.

Growth Management Ordinance {Local Facilities Management Plan Zone 22). The recommendation for approval for 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 following sections. A. General Plan Lots 14, 15 and 16 of SP 186 have a General Plan Land Use designation of General Commercial (GC). The proposed amendment to create an Auto Retail District is consistent with the policies and programs of the General Plan. Specifically, the amendment promotes continued economic growth and enhanced vitality of the auto-related !and uses which serve a broader area of the community and region. Therefore, SP 186(E) is consistent with the Land Use Element of the General Plan as illustrated in Table B below.

Occidental-Jewitt Specific Plan Amendment 186(E) The proposed Specific Plan Amendment, SP 186(E) is a property-owner initiated amendment to the Occidental-Jewitt Specific Plan to accomplish the following: 1. Remove lots 14, 15, and 16 from Area B of SP 186 and create a new land use district for lots 14- 16 entitled "Area C," the "Automotive Retail District." The primary purpose of the Automotive Retail District is to allow an alternate architectural style and guide redevelopment and enhaneements to the auto dealerships and any related accessory uses. Architectural guidelines, as well as examples of contemporary architecture, are proposed to be included as part of the new Automotive R€tail District. As discussed in the "Architectural Elements" section of the proposed amended Specific Plan, the applicant envisions a modern, stream-lined architectural style which embodies the current automotive brands in the market. Linear building planes, curved facades, exposed steel and masonry construction, tower elements, as well as the use of glass and metal materials are intended to highlight the technical sophistication. In addition, high-end finishes and products are .incorporated into the architectural design to provide a unique and upscale image which aligns with the vehicles being marketed. 2. Add a developmen,t review process to Area C, which mimics the development process in the Car Country Specific Plan. The proposed development review process would require city staff review to determine whether a Site Development Plan would be required. The new process adds three categories or levels of review: Exemptions, Minor Site Development Plan, and Site Development Plan. A Minor Site Development Plan requires approval by the City Planner, while a Site Development Plan requires approval by the Planning Commission. Because the properties are located in the coastal zone, unless a project is found to be exempt pursuant to CMC Chapter 21.201, a Coastal Development Permit will be also be required. 3. Add development standards which are unique to Area C and which more closely align with the development standards of the underlying General Commerclal (C-2) zone, as well as the Car Country Specific Plan. This includes standards such as setbacks, building coverage, parking, landscaping, signage, storage, fencing, lighting and roof equipment. The maximum allowable height pursuant to the SP 186 is 35 feet. The proposed height for Area C will remain at 35 feet, with allowable architectural projections up to 45 feet. in addition, provisions are proposed in the.Speeific Plan which would allow for parking structures. The proposed changes to SP 186 are presented in a strikethroi1gh/underline format in Exhibit X of the City Council Draft Ordinance., As highlighted in the General Plan consistency Table B above, the amended Specific Plan complies with the goals, objectives, and policies of the various elements of the General Plan. SP 186 will continue to be the controlling document for any development proposed in the Specific Plan area. C. General Commercial and Commercial/Visitor-Serving Overlay Zone {C~2-Q) (CMC Chapters 21.28 and 21.208) The underlying General Commercial (C-2-Q) Zone d~velopment standards an.d permitted uses for lots 14, 15, and 16 of SP 186 (APNs 214-450-14, -15, and -16) are superseded by the development standards and permitted uses of the Occidental-Jewitt Specific Plan, SP 186; therefore, the C-2 development Item 10; page 65 SP 186{E)-HOEHN MOTORS AUTO RETAIL DISTRICT April 20, 2016 Pa e 7 standards are not applicable. In general, the development standards that are proposed to be added to the new Automotive Retail District are equal to or more restrictive than the standards in the C-2 zone, particularly as it relates to building height and setbacks. The maximum allowable building height in the proposed Auto Retail District is 35 feet with allowable architectural projections up to 45 feet. The C-2 zone· allows buildings with a height up to 55 feet with the approval of a Site. Development Plan .. In addition, no structural setbacks are required in the C-2 zone. SP·186{E) proposes an average front yard setback of 30 feet from Avenida Encinas (minimum 10 foot . building setback and 15 .feet for parking/driveways), and a minimum side and rear yard setback of five (5) and 10 feet, respectively. D. Mello I Segment of the Local Coastal Program, Coastal Development Permit Procedures, and Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone (CMC Chapters 21.201, 21.203, and 21.205) The project site is located within the Mello I Segment of the Local Coastal Program {LCP). While the proposed amendment to SP 186 is exempt from the requirement of a Coastal Development Permit, all future development proposed on Lots 14, 15, and 16 of SP 186 will be subject to CMC Chapters 21.201, 21.203 and 21.205. · E. Growth Management Ordinance (Local Facilities Management Plan Zone 22) The project area is located within Local Facilities Management Plan {LFMP) Zone 22 in the southwest quadrant of the City. The proposed Specific Plan Amendment does not have any impacts on public facilities. All infrastructure needed to serve existing auto dealerships are presently in place, in accordance with the Zone 22 Local Facilities Management Plan.' Fees for development impacts are levied at building permit issuance pursuant to LFMP Zone 22 requirements. IV. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The City Planner has determined that the project is exempt from the provisions of CEQA, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061{8){3} (General Rule) and City of Carlsbad Municipal Code Chapter 19.04.070(A)(l)(c), minor municipal code amendments that do not involve physical modifications or lead to physical improv.ements beyond those typically exempt. A Notice of Exemption will be filed by the City Planner upon project approval. The appropriate level of environmental review will be completed when an application is submitted to develop the subject sites. ATTACHMENTS:. 1. Planning Commission Resolution No. 7157 2.

Inc. (Ownership of property) Carlsbad Volvo Item 10; page 70 DRAFT Planning Commission Minutes April 20, 2016 Page 1 Chairperson Anderson closed the public hearing on Agenda Item 3, asked Mr. Neu to introduce the next item and opened the public hearing on Agenda Item 4. 4. SP 186(E) -HOEHN MOTORS AUTO RETAIL DISTRICT -Request for a recommendation of approval of a Specific Plan Amendment SP 186(E) to 1) add an Automotive Retail District; 2) expand the architectural guidelines to allow for contemporary architecture within the Automotive Retail District; and 3) add a review process and development standards within the Automotive Retail District. The properties affected by the Specific Plan Amendment are located west of Interstate 5, on the east side of Avenida Encinas, in between Palomar Airport Road to the north and Poinsettia Lane to the south, addressed as 6800 and 6830 Avenida Encinas, within Local Facilities Management Zone 22. The City Planner has determined that this project is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15061 (8)(3) (General Rule) and City of Carlsbad Municipal Code Chapter 19.04.070(A)(1 )(c), minor municipal code amendments that do not involve physical modifications or lead to physical improvements beyond those typically exempt. Ms. Werneke gave a brief presentation and stated she would be available to answer any questions. Commissioner Goyarts inquired if there was information available on what the building will look like when the freeway expands. Ms. Werneke stated that she has not spoken to CAL TRANS, however, there is a required 10-foot-wide rear yard setback which will be landscaped. Chairperson Anderson asked what the maximum allowable height would be. Ms. Werneke stated 35 feet with allowable architectural projections up to 45 feet. Chairperson Anderson asked if there were any questions of staff. Seeing none. She asked if the applicant would like to make the presentation. Kathryn Conniff, Horine Group, made a presentation and indicated she is available to answer any questions. Commissioner Black expressed concerns about the possibility of the incorporation of a digital sign. Ms. Conniff indicated that a digital sign was not proposed as the sign standards mimicked the standards of the Car Country Specific Plan. Commissioner Goyarts stated that he is concerned with the contemporary design of the project given the existing architecture throughout the city, which is predominantly Spanish and Mediterranean. He recommended that the applicant consider blending the contemporary and Spanish/Mediterranean themes. Commissioner Siekmann inquired about the timing of the widening of Interstate 5 and what is anticipated. Ms. Conniff stated that she met with Caltrans regarding the widening of 1-5 and they indicated that while there are future plans to expand to the full right-of-way width, there are no specific plans that have been prepared. Commissioner Siekmann inquired as to whether trees would be included in the landscaped setback adjacent to the freeway. Ms. Conniff indicated that trees would be included in the setback area. . Commissioner Siekmann recommended softening the east elevation with taller trees. Commissioner L'Heureux asked if sound walls would be constructed in the future and, if so, how tall they would be. Ms. Conniff did not know offhand what the height of the walls would be but indicated they could get that information. Commissioner L'Heureux asked if Ms. Conniff is representing Volvo. Ms. Conniff indicated they were not representing Volvo. He also asked if they have any idea what Volvo's intentions are as far as renovating the existing building. Ms. Conniff indicated she's seen a few concepts which are similar to the contemporary concepts presented to the Commission tonight, but wasn't sure if it accurately represented what they might submit in the future. She also recognized the importance of incorporating branded architecture to satisfy car manufacturers. Item 10; page 71 DRAFT Planning Commission Minutes April 20, 2016 Page2 Commissioner L'Heureux asked if Porsche had a standard design palette. Ms. Conniff stated that Porsche has standard recommended contemporary design features, Commissioner L'Heureux asked if Volvo would return to modify the Specific Plan, and if there has been communication with them. Ms. Conniff indicated the owner of Volvo was aware of the requested amendment and supported the changes to the Specific Plan. Mr. Neu stated that staff has had contact with Volvo and they have shared preliminary designs, which incorporate contemporary features. Chairperson Anderson asked if the building is close to the setback. Ms. Conniff stated there is currently a 10-foot setback along the rear elevation, facing the freeway. If a sound wall is constructed, the wall will screen, to some extent, the display of cars. Ms. Werneke indicated that the Specific Plan requires the 10- foot-wide rear yard setback be landscaped. Ms. Werneke also indicated that the entire east elevation would not be fully screened as the auto dealer may want some visibility for the display; she further indicated that palm trees might be used so as to allow for some visibility of the building. Chairperson Anderson asked why we were not entertaining the change to contemporary architecture on the east side of the freeway. Ms. Werneke stated that there are a mix of uses and more urban designs on the west side of the freeway but the dealerships in the Car Country Specific Plan are required to maintain a Spanish/Mediterranean architectural theme. Chairperson Anderson inquired about the possibility of adding warmer design materials to the glass and steel design features. Ms. Conniff interjected that wood was an approved material in the old Specific Plan and could be approved in the new design as well. Commissioner Goyarts asked how close the 4-story sign would be to the freeway and if it will ever be constructed. Ms. Werneke stated that the freestanding sign was approved as part of the original Specific Plan but was never constructed. Ms. Werneke indicated that a Coastal Development Permit would be required to construct it. Commissioner Goyarts asked if the freestanding sign approved in the Specific Plan could be changed to a digital sign. Ms. Werneke stated that they would need to apply for an amendment to the Specific Plan but that doesn't mean staff would support it. Chairperson Anderson asked if there any further questions of the applicant. Seeing none, she asked if there was anyone in the audience who would like to speak who didn't fill out a speaker slip. Jim Klinko, 3462 Don Ortega, indicated that wood does not hold up well near the ocean and suggested the consideration of incorporating brick with the glass and steel design elements. Chairperson Anderson asked if brick would be allowed. Ms. Werneke stated that she would need to check the Architectural Guidelines but thought there was built in flexibility for contemporary materials beyond glass and metal. Ms. Conniff stated that there is language in the architectural guidelines that allows for terracotta or earth tones. Chairperson Anderson asked if brick along with wood, glass and steel could be used. Ms. Werneke stated yes. Chairperson Anderson asked if there were any further questions of the applicant. Seeing none, Chairperson Anderson opened and closed public testimony on Agenda Item 4. DISCUSSION Commissioner Black thanked staff for the presentation and stated that he is in favor of a more modern design for the dealership and supports the branded architecture. Commissioner Goyarts stated that he cannot support the project since there are still outstanding questions as to what the building would look like. Item 10; page 72 DRAFT Planning Commission Minutes April 20, 2016 Page 3 Commissioner Siekmann stated that the project was great and suggested taller trees to soften the view from the freeway. She can support the project. Commissioner L'Heureux expressed concern regarding the contemporary nature of the elevations as viewed from Avenida Encinas and the freeway and how it would flt in within the neighborhood, which includes some older buildings along Avenida Encinas. Commissioner L'Heureux requested that the owners of the auto dealerships be sensitive to the community by softening the architecture with earth tones. Commissioner Segall stated he could support the change. He indicated that corporate branding is important for the industry and the option remains to use Spanish or Mediterranean architecture. He can support the project. Chairperson Anderson liked the examples of contemporary design and agrees with Commissioner L'Heureux that some warmer design elements, particularly as viewed from the freeway, should be incorporated into the modern style. She can support the project To address Commissioner Goyarts concern, Mr. Neu indicated that if s a substantial renovation of the dealership is proposed, a site development plan would be required to be approved by the Planning Commission. At that time, plans would be available for review. Staff requests your support of the proposal with the expectation that you would see more detail in the future when the Site Development Plan is submitted. Chairperson Anderson asked if the eventual design would go to the Coastal Commission. Mr. Neu indicated that the city has the coastal permit authority for this property. In addition, the sound wall may be quite significant in height, similar to what you would see on other parts of the freeway in Orange County. Commissioner L'Heureux stated that if the Planning Commission reviews an application for development at this site in the future, he would like to see renderings from 1-5 with the sound walls. Mr. Neu indicated that if Caltrans does not have designs, they will have guidelines that can be used to include a sound wall in the exhibits. MOTION ACTION: Motion by Commissioner Segall and duly seconded by Commissioner Black that the Planning Commission adopt Planning Commission Resolution No. 7157 recommending approval of Specific Plan Amendment SP 186(E) based on the findings and subject to the conditions contained therein. VOTE: 5-1-1 AYES: Chairperson Anderson, Commissioner Black, Commissioner L'Heureux, Commissioner Segall and Commissioner Siekmann NOES: Commissioner Goyarts ABSENT: Commissioner Montgomery ABSTAIN: None Chairperson Anderson closed the public hearing on Agenda Item 4, asked Mr. Neu to introduce the next item and opened the public hearing on Agenda Item 5.
