AARP California State Director
1415 L Street, Suite 960
Sacramento, CA 95814
Dear Ms. McPherson,
{city of
Carlsbad
On behalf of the City of Carlsbad, we appreciate the opportunity to apply for membership in the
AARP Network of Age-Friendly States and Communities. Our leadership recognizes the rapidly
growing 55+ population in our community and has shown consistent leadership in creating an
inclusive place for all ages.
With nearly seven miles of coastline, three lagoons, world class resorts, family attractions, well-
planned neighborhoods, a diverse and innovative economy and a charming village atmosphere,
the City of Carlsbad is one of the most desirable places to live and work in California. It is also a
place that recognizes changing demographics and the rapidly aging nature of our residents. In
San Diego County, Carlsbad is a community that will see a greater concentration of our 55+
population than some other areas in our region. As a part of our on-going commitment to
create a place that is welcoming to residents and visitors, the city is excited by the opportunity
to join a global network of cities that are focused on creating age-friendly communities.
Consider this letter our strong commitment to continue along the path of creating an age-
friendly city for all. If approved, we lo'ok forward to participating with AARP and other peer-
cities as we employ strategies and practices that enhance the wonderful City of Carlsbad.

Responses to Questions from the Sept. , 2019, Council Briefings
Agenda Item No. 9 -Laguna Drive Subdivision
Question 1: What is the minimum square footage required per dwelling? And is this
minimum stated in the Village Barrio Master Plan or in the State of CA Building Code?
Answer: There is no minimum square footage required per dwelling in the Village and
Barrio Master Plan or within the State of CA Building Code. The Building Code only
specifies a minimum area with respect to habitable rooms. Section R304.1 states that
habitable rooms, such as bedrooms and living rooms (but excluding kitchens, bathrooms
and hallways), shall have a floor area of not less than 70 square feet.
Question 2: What is the percentage of profit in the Pro Forma submitted by the applicant
and reviewed by staff? Does the city have a published generally accepted range?
Answer: For this project, proforma information was not requested. The project
applicant provided some information in response to the Off-site and Combined
lnclusionary Housing Project Assessment Worksheet. In addition, in reviewing the project
it became clear that the project would require several development standards waivers in
order to provide affordable units on-site to meet the inclusionary housing
requirement. Further, the staff of the California Coastal Commission indicated concerns
with proposed on-site parking reductions needed to provide affordable units on-
site. Because of these factors a pro form a was not required of the project applicant. The
Housing Policy Team recommended that the applicant purchase two affordable housing
credits from the City of Carlsbad in the Tavarua senior affordable apartments, a combined
offsite affordable housing development located in the Northwest Quadrant of the
city. The Planning Commission recommended approval of the credit purchase and the
requirement is contained in the Planning Commission conditions of approval.
In reviewing a project proforma for other project applications, city staff generally
considers a profit margin of 12%-15% to be reasonable, however, developers often have
different financing requirements and profit margin minimums based on investors and the
financing associated with a project.

Question 1: Will this initiative be related to Blue Zones?
Answer: The AARP Network of Age Friendly States and Communities is not directly
related to the Blue Zones, which uses demographic and behavioral research to determine
factors that may lead certain communities to have longevity characteristics that are
different than the rest of the world. Dan Buettner was responsible for the claims that
people within these, "Blue Zones" live much longer than the average. The concept first
appeared in a 2005 National Geographic story. Since that time, Blue Zones has become a
company that promotes ways of extending longevity based upon original research of five
communities that exhibit longer life-spans than average. The Network of Age-Friendly
States and Communities, on the other hand, will broadly cover more domains that lead a
community to being age friendly and will use local research, through surveys and listening
sessions, to guide the development of an action plan that is tailored to the needs of our
community.
