Robertson Ranch I. INTRODUCTION
An amended LFMP accompanied the original Master Plan adoption in 2006. This LFMP
included a revised constraints analysis which determined that the maximum number of dwelling
units for the Robertson Ranch was 951 dwelling units (or 983 dwelling units if the Alternative
Uses for the elementary school was implemented). However, the Robertson Ranch Master Plan
was approved with the statement that a total of 171 additional units would be allocated to the
Master Plan, bringing the total project units to 1,122 (1,154 with the Alternative Use sc~nario).
The additional 171 units (under either the Elementary School or the Alternative Use scenario)
will be made available from the City's Excess Dwelling Unit Bank. Then in 2015. the City
allocated 98 additional units from the Excess Dwelling Unit Bank to Planning Area 22 as part of
their General Plan Update. As a result. the total number of residential units within the project is
1.252 units.
The project site is bound on three sides by General Plan Circulation Element roadways, as
indicated on Figure I-7, General Plan Roadways. El Camino Real forms the project site's
southern boundary and is designated as a "Primary Arterial" in the General Plan Circulation
Element and as a "Community Theme" Corridor in the City's Scenic Corridor Guidelines.
College Boulevard and Cannon Road traverse the eastern portion of the site and both are
designated ''Major Arterial" roadways by the General Plan Circulation Element, and as
"Community Scenic Corridors" in the City's Scenic Corri~or Guidelines. Tamarack A venue,
which forms the site's western boundary, is designated as a "Secondary Arterial" .in the General
Plan Circulation Element.
. . .
D. Project Description
The Robertson Ranch Master Plan is envisioned as a balanced master planned community which
successfully integrates residential, commercial, recreational and open space land uses. As shown
on the Master Plan Land Use Map, Figure II-3, the project design provides for the creation of a
remarkable community composed of the 178.6-acre East Village and the 219.4-acre West
Village. Table 1-1, Land Use Summary identifies the land uses proposed for each of the two
villages. Since the original Master Plan approval in 2006, the Carlsbad Unified School District
has rejected the Planning Area 13/14 Elementary School site. Thus, combined upon buildout, the
villages of the Robertson Ranch Master Plan, including the Alternative Uses, comprise a total of
+,l-M 1.252 dwelling units in a wide range of product types, densities and price ranges, including
multifamily neighborhoods and dwelling units provided under the City's Inclusionary Housing
Ordinance.
The land uses within the Robertson Ranch Master Plan have been chosen to provide residents the
opportunity to live, shop and enjoy open space and active recreational facilities within their own
community, As· a result, each of the villages has a distinct set ofland uses, physically linked by a
pedestrian circulation system and thematically linked through the implementation of strong,
consistent landscape design theme and related architecture.

Robertson Ranch l. INTRODUCTION
Extensive design guidelines and implementation standards ensirre high quality development and
recognizable community identities, while providing the architectural and landscape design
flexibility necessary to successfully accommodate future market demands. In addition, the
project design has incorporated the requirements of the City's Livable Neighborhood Policy and
Livable Streets Ordinance and reflects smart growth elements, as exemplified by the Ahwahnee
Principles.
East Village Land Uses
The Architectural Design Guidelines are intended to evoke a rural atmosphere by utilizing the
architectural elements consistent with both traditional European and related early California
design. The Landscape Design Guidelines establish the project's character and provide thematic
continuity throughout the entire community. Through the thematic blending of hardscape and
planting elements, the landscape plan helps create a strong "sense of identity." Elements of the
landscape theme include appropriately landscaped common areas and landscape materials
identified with rural communities, including river rock, stone, clusters and groves of trees, wood
materials, earth-tone colors, and a diversity of materials.
The 178.6-acre East Village provides 482 dwelling units within sevell5HE residential
neighborhoods consisting of four planning areas totaling 320 dwelling units on 5,000 square-foot
lotg2, one planning area consisting of 84 courtyard homes, and a multifamily neighbor4ood
composed of 78 units and a senior housing site composed of 98 senior units. The affordable
units for the East Village will be accommodated in the multifamily neighborhood. The majority
of the East Village single-family neighborhoods will utilize a grid-pattern of streets, resulting in
a high degree of internal connectivity, in conformance with the Ahwahnee Principles. The
nonresidential portion of the East Village includes 2.0 net acres of the required Community
Recreation facilities within a centrally-located community park site, and-approximately 16.5
acres of roads. The East Village also provides approximately 72.4 acres of open space, mostly
located within the wildlife corridor, as well as recreatiop. and circulation trails to encourage
alternative transportation methods, in conformance with the Ahwahnee Principles.
Planning Area 22, located south of Cannon Road between Street "A" and Street "0" within the
East Village, shall be designated for office usehigh density senior housing and a permanent RV
storage facility for the Robertson Ranch Master Plan.
2 Within Planning.Area 18, a minimum lot size of 4,500 square feet is permitted for those lots which abut Cannon

Multifamily housing, in the form of attached products including but not limited to
condominiums, townhomes, apartments, stacked flats, duplexes, triplexes, and six-
plex buildings in Planning Areas 7, ·8,--arui 15 and 22. The affordable housing
requirements for the Master Plan as specified in the Carlsbad Inclusionary Housing
Ordinance are accommodated within these multifamily planning areas.
c) Mfordable housing
(1) General Requirements: The provision of ''lnclusionary'' or "affordable"
housing in all new developments is required by the Housing Element of the
City's General Plan. The requirements applicable to locating and constructing
these housing units are stipulated in the Inclusionary Housing Ordinance, City
Municipal Code Chapter 21.85. Sub-section 21.85.050 indicates in part, that
"the required number of lower-income Inclusionary units shall be fifteen
(15%) percent of the total residential units, approved by the final decision
making authority." "Lower-income" households are defined by sub-section
21.85.020 as, " ... households ... whose gross income does not exceed eighty
(80%) percent of the median income for San Diego County as determined
annually by the U.S. Department ofHousing and Urban Development."
The Robertson Ranch Master Plan is obligated to provide a maximum of 174
dwelling units which are affordable to lower-income households (80% median
income) based on the total number of allowed units within the project, as
shown on Table II-3, Lower-Income Affordable Housing Requirements. The
inclusionary housing obligation of the Robertson Ranch Master Plan is based
qn the total number of dwelling units. This obligation shall be adjusted in
proportion to the total number of approved and constructed dwelling units
within each Village. The actual number of required lower-income units will be
based on the final number of dwelling units appro~ed for each Village within
3 Within Planning Area 18, a minimum lot size of 4,500 s.f. is permitted for those lots iwhich abut Cannon Road.

the Master Plan. Each Village will be responsible for providing their
proportional share of affordable units based on the number of approved units
in each village. If the required West Village senior housing units meet the
affordability criteria, then those units shall meet the requirements of this
Master Plan for both senior and the inclusionary requirement. Thus, senior
housing units that are restricted to the appropriate lower income rates shall
qualify as combined affordable/senior housing projects.

In addition, and in conformance with the Ahwahnee Principles, the Robertson
Ranch Master Plan will exceed the inclusionary housing obligations of
Chapter 21.85 of the Municipal Code by providing additional units affordable
to "moderate-income" households within the West Village of the Master Plan.
Moderate-income units, for the purposes of this section, shall be defined as
those units that are affordable to households whose gross income does not
·exceed one-hundred twenty percent (120%) of the median income for San
Diego County as determined annually by the U.S. Department ofHousing and
Urban Development. As negotiated with the City of Carlsbad, 56 moderate-
income units shall be provided within the West Village of the Master Plan.
Moderate-income units may be provided as' for-sale condominium units or
for-rent apartments, and may be included as part of an affordable housing
development. Housing for se:J?.ior citizens, as defined by Municipal Code
Section 21.84.030, is also required in the West Village and these senior units
may contribute to satisfying the affordable J;lousing requireme;nts.
Therefore, the East Village shall provide a total of73 low income (80% of the
median income) affordable housing units. The West Village shall provide a
total of 101low (80% ofthe median income) plus 56 moderate (120% ofthe
median income) affordable units. The West Village shall also' provide the
required 100 senior units; however these senior units may be accommodated
within the West Village 157 (101 . du + 56 du) unit affordable program.
Twenty percent (20%) of the senior housing units within Planning Area 22
shall be affordable to low income residents.
(2) Affordable Housing Agreement I Site Development Plan:

Robertson Ranch II. DETAILED PLAN DESCRIPTION
F. General Provisions
1. Growth Management
The Robertson Ranch Master Plan shall comply with all provisions of the Carlsbad
Municipal Code, Section 21.90 (Growth Management Program). The Master Plan
developer or the developer of any portion of the Master Plan, by pulling building
permits pursuant to the Master Plan and the Local Facilities Management Plan
(LFlVIP) and the Finance Plan, agrees that all of the dedication and other public
facility requirements imposed as a condition of the Zone 14 LFlVIP and the Finance
Plan, are reasonably necessary to serve the needs of the development for which the
building permits are required. ·
The Growth Management Ordinance provides "Growth Management Control Points"
which determine the maximum number of dwelling units permitted for a given· area.
Pursuant to the LFMP for Zone 14 and the Growth Management Ordinance, a
constraints analysis was performed for the Robertson Ranch Master Plan which
determined that, based on the Growth Control Points for LFMP Zone 14 and the
amount of unconstrained lands on-site, the maximum number of units permitted
within the Master Plan is 983. Of these units, 476.5 are allocated to the East Village
and 506.5 are allocated to the West Village, although the number of units allocated to
each Village may change if units are transferred between Villages.
However, 171 units have been allocated to the Master Plan from the City's Excess
Dwelling Unit Bank per the Alternative Use scenario. Any additional requirements
for affordable units, restrictions,. or conditions associated with the provision of these
171 units shall be applied only to the Village in which the units are to be constructed.
Additional requirements for 56 moderate-priced units shall be required in the West
Village, pursuant to an affordable housing agreement however these units are
included in the 203 unit calculation from the Excess Dwelling Unit Bank.
2. Maximum Number of Dwelling Units
As discussed above, the number of dwelling units permitted within the Robertson
Ranch Master Plan shall be 1,154 units, based on the Growth Control Points and
constraints analysis established by the LFlVIP for Zone 14 and the provision of
additional units pursuant to Section 21.90.045 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code. The
land use change associated with the 2015 General Plan Update may increase the total
unit count by 98 senior housing units. These residential uses shall be distributed
within the Master Plan area as shown in Table II-2, Detailed Land Use Summary.
3. Transfer of Dwelling Units
Density transfers within the Master Plan are permitted, but are subject to the
following conditions:
Robertson Ranch Master Plan
May 19, ?Q15Januarv5. 2016
Pageii-31
Item 10; pg. 21
Robertson Ranch II. DETAlLED PLAN DESCRIPTION
• Units may be transferred between Villages or between residential planning
areas within a village, provided however: a) that the transfer of units was
addressed within the adopted Master Plan as an alternative use for the
Planning Area( s) proposed to increase in density; b) the transfer does not
result in the net densitY of any Planning Area being increased greater than 10
percent of the density stated in the Master Plan; and c) the transfer does not
result in the density of a Planning Area to fall below the density range of its
General Plan land use designation. The overall unit count of the project shall
not exceed the maximum number of units provided for by this Master Plan
regardless of the above density transfer provisions except as otherwise
provided by Chapter 21.86 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code.
• Only those Planning Areas that are designated for residential use by this
Master Plan may receive transferred units, including Planning Area 11.
• If units are transferred between ViJlages, then the affordable housing
obligation and recreation requirements for each Village shall be revised
accordingly.
• As discusse~ in Section V, MAsTER PLAN IMPLEMENTATION MEASURES, a
Minor Master Plan Amendment shall be required for each proposed transfer
of density of 10 percent or less within the Master Plan and a Major Master
Plan Amendment shall be required for density transfers exceeding 10 percent.
4. Option Parcel-Not a Part (N.A.P.)
Approximately 5.7 acres of land located between Planning Areas 22 and 23F is
shown on the Master Plan exhibits as being Not a Part and is identified as the Option
ParceL Ownership of this Option Parcel was transferred to the Rancho Carlsbad
Home Owners Association (RCHOA) in 2011 and the area has been designated Open
Space.
5. Unplanned Area
Planning Area 22 was designated in the original Master Plan approvals as an
"Unplanned Area" with the intent that final Land Use designations would be
determined upon the completion of a comprehensive land use study for Planning
Area 22 and the adjacent "Option ParceL" This work was accomplished in 2010, and
revised in 2015. Planning Area 22 has been officially decreased in size (a portion
designated as open space Planning Area 23G) and designated in the Master Plan for
senior housing residentialGf:Hee anQ, RV Storage, and open space land uses.
6. Recordation
Notice of the approval of the Robertson Ranch Master Plan by the City Council of the
City of Carlsbad shall be recorded with the County of San Diego Recorders Office.
