Executive Summary Pursuant to the City Council’s direction in Resolution 2014-280, construction documents were prepared for the Poinsettia Community Park - Phase III Construction Project (Phase III Construction Project) which included a multi-sport arena field, an enlarged playground, and a dog park. In September 2016, the City Council approved the Phase III Construction Project’s plans/specifications and authorized the advertisement for bids. Prior to staff’s request of the City Council to award the construction contract, staff posted signs in the park indicating that the associated improvements would be ‘Coming Soon’. Shortly thereafter, multiple residents requested the dog park be moved from its’ master planned location. In September 2017, the City Council directed staff to revise the plans/specifications for the Phase III Project to remove the dog park and to explore its’ relocation to an area in Poinsettia Community Park previously envisioned for a multi-generational community center. On Feb. 13, 2018, the City Council directed staff to pursue the relocation of the dog park as a separate project – i.e., the Poinsettia Community Park – Phase IV Dog Park Project (Phase IV Dog Park Project). In November 2018, the conceptual plans were submitted to the Planning Division with applications for a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) Amendment and a Coastal Development Permit (CDP). On Aug. 21, 2019, the Planning Commission approved the CUP Amendment and CDP for the Phase IV Dog Park Project. Although additional parking was not required in conjunction with the approval of the CUP and the CDP for the dog park, staff has received correspondence from numerous patrons and neighbors about the demand for parking during heavily attended park activities. Staff has also identified the need for the addition of a restroom within this area of the park for patrons of the pickleball courts, the upper tennis courts and the proposed dog park. On Oct. 31, 2019, the Planning Division approved a Consistency Determination for the subject parking lot and restroom. A chronology of events leading to the proposed amendment to the Poinsettia Community Park Master Plan is included herein (Exhibit 2). 7 of 83 Discussion Background In 1992, the Master Plan for Poinsettia Community Park, previously known as Alta Mira Community Park, was approved (Exhibit 3). In 2014, the City Council approved an amendment to the Poinsettia Community Park Master Plan, which included amongst other amenities, an off- leash dog park (dog park) in a central area of the park (Exhibit 4). Pursuant to the City Council’s direction in Resolution No. 2014-280, construction documents were prepared for the Phase III Construction Project, which included a multi-sport arena field, an enlarged playground, and a dog park. In September 2016, the City Council approved the Phase III Construction Project’s plans/specifications and authorized the advertisement for bids. All bids were determined to be non-responsive and were subsequently rejected by the City Council. The Phase III Construction Project was then re-advertised for bids in February 2017. Prior to staff’s request of the City Council to award the construction contract, staff posted signs in the park indicating that the associated improvements would be ‘Coming Soon’. Shortly thereafter, multiple residents requested the dog park be moved from its’ master planned location in a grass-laden detention basin, expressing a desire to save the ‘grassy bowl’ as an unstructured play area. In September 2017, the City Council directed staff to revise the plans/specifications for the Phase III Project to remove the dog park and explore its’ relocation to an area in Poinsettia Community Park previously envisioned for a multi-generational community center. The following month, staff sought community input on the possible relocation site for the dog park. Community members provided input through an online survey, emails, social media and temporary on-site information centers. Staff completed review of the community's input on this topic and found that nearly 80 percent of the 678 responses supported relocating the dog park to the east side, on the undeveloped site south of the main entrance (Exhibit 5). Phase IV Dog Park Project In January 2018, given the community’s expressed support, staff sought the Parks & Recreation Commission’s recommendation on pursuing relocation of the dog park to the alternate site. The Commission supported the alternate location and recommended that staff advise the City Council accordingly. On Feb. 13, 2018, the City Council authorized staff to pursue relocation of the dog park as a separate project – i.e., Phase IV Dog Park Project. The staff report to the City Council provides a comprehensive summary of the recommendation to relocate the dog park to the east side of the park (Exhibit 6). The City Council’s initial authorization to pursue relocating the dog park allowed staff to proceed with obtaining the necessary discretionary approvals from the Planning Commission in advance of the City Council’s approval of the amendment to the Poinsettia Community Park Master Plan. In June 2018, staff entered into a professional services agreement with a design firm to prepare conceptual plans for the dog park. In November 2018, the conceptual plans were submitted to the Planning Division with applications for a CUP Amendment and a CDP. In accordance with the City Council’s Public Involvement Policy (Policy 84), public notification and information signs were installed at the dog park site, early public notices were mailed - advising of the application, and interested parties were invited to access information via a website link. The 8 of 83 website included the dog park’s conceptual site plan and color rendering. In response to the public noticing and informational signs, 55 comments were received. Nearly 90% of the comments requested using a grass surface for the dog park rather than a mulch surface. After receiving these responses, staff submitted revised plans to the Planning Department showing a grass surface would be used instead of a mulch surface (Exhibits 7 and 8). On Aug. 21, 2019, the Planning Commission approved the CUP Amendment and CDP for the Phase IV Dog Park Project. No additional correspondence was submitted by the public and there were no speakers at the hearing. The Planning Commission Staff Report provides a description of the dog park, analysis of the project, and a summary of the public outreach - consistent with Policy 84 (Exhibit 9). Added Parking Lot and Restroom Although additional parking was not required in conjunction with the approval of the CUP and the CDP for the dog park, staff has received correspondence from numerous patrons and neighbors about the demand for parking during heavily attended park activities. Further, staff has observed consistent illegal overflow parking on the park’s grass, planters and sidewalks during such activities. To help alleviate this peak parking demand, staff recommends adding a parking lot, northerly adjacent to the dog park, on the vacant pad originally intended to serve the multi-generational community center. Staff has also identified the need for the addition of a restroom within this area of the park for patrons of the pickleball courts, the upper tennis courts and the proposed dog park. The location for the added parking lot and restroom is illustrated on the draft amendment to the Poinsettia Community Park Master Plan. Although the plans/specifications for the parking lot haven’t been completed, staff estimates it will accommodate approximately 30 standard spaces, 2 handicapped accessible spaces, and 4 electric vehicle (EV) spaces with charging stations. Providing the EV charging spaces would be consistent with the requirements of Carlsbad Municipal Code Chapter 18.21.150 California Green Building Standards Code Chapter 5 Amended – Nonresidential Electric Vehicle Charging, and the Carlsbad Climate Action Plan. The material type, design and layout of the restroom building will be consistent with that of the restroom building adjacent to the park’s playground. On Oct. 31, 2019, the Planning Division approved a Consistency Determination for the subject parking lot and restroom. This determination confirmed the addition of these amenities is consistent with the uses previously allowed in Poinsettia Community Park under its’ approved CUP and CDP (Exhibit 10). Fiscal Analysis There is no direct fiscal impact associated with the recommendation to approve the amendment to the Poinsettia Community Park Master Plan. There are sufficient funds currently available in the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Phase IV Dog Park Project to address development of the dog park. Staff will request a funding appropriation to address development of the adjacent parking lot and restroom at the time of the City Council’s approval of the plans/specification and authorization to bid the Phase IV Dog Park Project. 9 of 83 Next Steps Staff will work with the design firm to prepare the construction documents & plans/specifications for the Phase IV Dog Park Project. Staff anticipates returning to the City Council by the end of Spring 2020 for approval of the Phase IV Dog Park Project’s plans/specifications and authorization for public bidding. Environmental Evaluation (CEQA) On Oct. 7, 1992, the Planning Commission approved a Conditional Use Permit (CUP 92-5) and adopted a Mitigated Negative Declaration and a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program for the Poinsettia Community Park. On Aug. 21, 2019, the Planning Commission found that the dog park project is within the scope of the prior environmental document and no further environmental documentation is required per CEQA Guidelines Section 15162. All applicable mitigation measures contained in the prior environmental document have either been satisfied previously, will be incorporated into the Phase IV Project’s construction documents, plans/specifications, are existing Parks and Recreation Department policy, and/or are conditions of approval in Planning Commission Resolution 7343 for Phase IV Dog Park Project. The addition of the parking lot and restroom are also within the scope of the prior environmental documents and are consistent with the uses allowed in the Poinsettia Community Park Master Plan.

Adopt a Resolution approving plans and specifications for Aviara Community Park-Ph. II and Poinsettia Community Park-Ph . Ill Construction Projects, authorizing the City Clerk to advertise projects for bids, and directing staff to pursue relocation of a dog park at Poinsettia Community Park Recommended Action Adoption of a Resolution approving the revised plans, specifications and contract documents for the Aviara Community Park -Phase II and Poinsettia Community Park-Phase Ill Construction Projects, authorizing the City Clerk to advertise the projects for bids, and directing staff to pursue relocation of a dog park at Poinsettia Community Park. Executive Summary The Aviara Community Park -Phase II Construction Project and the Poinsettia Community Park - Phase Ill Construction Project were designed together and intended to be bid as one unit to achieve site efficiencies and cost savings. The initial design of the Poinsettia Community Park - Phase Ill Construction Project included a dog park. During the bidding process, multiple residents and representatives of home owners associations requested that the dog park not be constructed in the master planned location of Poinsettia Community Park. While staff was administering the designing and bidding of the Aviara Community Park-Phase II and Poinsettia Community Park-Phase Ill Construction Projects, staff was also conducting a feasibility study for a master planned multigenerational community center at Poinsettia Community Park. A multigenerational community center was ultimately found to be not feasible as envisioned at this community park. As a result, that segment of Poinsettia Community Park became available to be considered and studied for other potential uses. Based on the findings of the feasibility study, and in response to the requests received from the public, staff recommended revising the Poinsettia Community Park-Phase Ill Construction Project plans and specifications to remove the dog park, and exploring its relocation to the segment of this community park initially envisioned for a multigenerational community center. In conjunction with that recommendation, staff also recommended the rejection of all bids received for the Aviara Community Park -Phase II and Poinsettia Park-Phase Ill Construction ..I 18 of 83 Projects. On Sept. 12, 2017, the City Council approved the above recommended actions (Resolution No. 2017-185), Staff subsequently re-engaged the design team to revise the Poinsettia Community Park - Phase Ill Construction Project plans and specifications to remove the dog park. Staff is now seeking the City Council's approval of the revised plans, specifications and contract documents for the Aviara Community Park-Phase II and Poinsettia Community Park-Phase Ill Construction Projects, and authorization for the City Clerk to advertise the projects for bids. Staff also subsequently sought public input on the concept of relocating the dog park to the segment of Poinsettia Community Park initially envisioned for a multigenerational community center. Based on the results of the public input survey conducted, and the Parks & Recreation Commission's advisement, .staff is recommending the City Council provide direction to pursue relocation of the dog park as described. Discussion The Aviara Community Park -Phase II Construction Project plans consist of a large passive outdoor community gathering space with a stage, individual picnic areas, and a group picnic shelter that contains restrooms and a catering support room. The Poinsettia Community ~ark - Phase Ill Construction Project plans initially consisted of a dog park -with separate areas for large and small dogs, a multi-sports arena field, a new larger playground -with equipment for two age groups, and six pickleball courts. The city sought public input throughout the planning phase of these projects, beginning with stakeholder interviews and open public meetings for the parks during 2014. This early public input contributed to the development of the Aviara Community Park and Poinsettia Community Park Master Plan Updates, which were adopted by the City Council on Dec. 9, 2014 (Resolution No. 2014-280). The projects were designed together and intended to be bid as one unit, in order to take advantage of soils export/import needs associated with the respective amenities, the close proximity of the parks, and the available economies of scale in construction. On Sept. 27, 2016, the City Counci l approved the plans and specifications for the Aviara Community Park -Phase II and Poinsettia Park -Phase Ill Construction Projects, and authorized the City Clerk to advertise the projects for bids (Resolution No. 2016-199). On October 7, 2016, the projects were advertised for bids. On Nov. 10, 2016, three bids were received for the projects. All three bids were subsequently determined to be non-responsive. On Jan . 10, 2017, the City Council rejected the bids and approved of staff's pending action to revise the bidding provisions/forms, extend the advertisement period, and re-advertise the projects for bids (Resolution No. 2017-005). On Feb. 2, 2017, the projects were re-advertised for bids. On March 21, 2017, seven bids for the projects were received. After the apparent lowest bidder withdrew its bid, the next lowest responsive and responsible bid received was in the amount of $6,797,556. During the bidding process, multiple residents and representatives of home owners associations requested that the dog park not be constructed in the master plan-indicated location of Poinsettia Comm unity Park. The master plan-indicated location of the dog park is a 19 of 83 grass-laden drainage detention basin, referred to as "the grassy bowl" by many of the residents. The predominant reason provided to not construct the dog park in the master plan- indicated location was the desire to leave "the grassy bowl" as an unstructured play area. While staff was designing and bidding the Aviara Community Park-Phase II and Poinsettia Community Park -Phase Ill Construction Projects, staff was also conducting a feasibility study for a master planned multi-generational community center at Poinsettia Community Park, titled "Big Idea No. 1." On Aug. 22, 2017, the City Council accepted the findings of that feasibility study (Resolution No. 2017-172). In specific, the resolution states: '' ... while a smaller facility; i.e. 35,000 square foot or less, could certainly be possible at Poinsettia Community Park, it is not recommended since it does not fulfil the intended vision of the Big Idea in serving the community's diverse needs to the greatest possible extent at this site ... " " ... with Poinsettia Community Park deemed not to be a feasible site for a multigenerational community community center as envisioned, the same segment of the park can now be considered and studied for other potential uses ... " Based on the findings of the feasibility study, and in response to the requests received from the public, staff recommended revising the Poinsettia Community Park-Phase Ill Construction Project plans and specifications to remove the dog park, and exploring its relocation to the segment of Poinsettia Community Park initially envisioned for a multigenerational community center. In conjunction with that recommendation, staff also recommended the rejection of all bids received for the Aviara Community Park -.Phase II and Poinsettia Park -Phase Ill Construction Projects. On Sept. 12, 2017, the City Council approved the above recommended actions (Resolution No. 2017-185). Staff subsequently re-engaged the design team to revise the Poinsettia Community Park - Phase Ill Construction Project plans and specifications to remove the dog park. Staff is now seeking City Council approval of the revised plans, specifications and contract documents for the Aviara Community Park -Phase II and Poinsettia Community Park -Phase Ill Construction Projects, and authorization for the City Clerk to advertise the projects for public bids. Staff also subsequently sought public input on the concept of relocating the dog park to the segment of Poinsettia Community Park initially envisioned for a multigenerational community center. From Oct. 31, 2017, to Nov. 30, 2017, staff solicited public input on this concept via a two question survey. The two questions in the survey were: Ql. Do you support this possible location for a dog park? Q2. Why or why not? The survey was distributed to those who signed up to receive city email notifications, a list of key stakeholders, mailers to 3,249 owners and occupants living in the area around the park, and it was promoted through the city's website and social media channels. 619 responses to the survey were received on line. Input was also solicited from park patrons and neighbors during on-site visits at Poinsettia Community Park on Thursday, Nov. 16, 2017, and on Saturday, Nov. 18, 2017. Approximately two dozen individuals provided verbal feedback to staff, and all of them were invited to respond to the survey on line, or on-site. 12 responses to the survey were received on-site. 20 of 83 In addition to the above responses to the survey, 44 individuals' responses were received via social media and 3 responses were received via email. A grand total of 678 responses to the survey were received. The results were as follows: Ql. Do you support this possible location for a dog park? Answer # of Responses % of Responses Yes 526 80 No 149 20 Total 675 100 Q2. Why or why not? Themes as to why support was offered for this possible location for a dog park • Dog friendly community; dog park very welcome • A place to help dogs learn socialization with people and their dogs • Needs for a dog park; large population of dogs • Much better than previous proposed location; responsive to resident input • Close to the street and away from kids' playing areas • Close proximity to parking lot; dogs do not need to be walked across the park • Less impact to the whole park; not near the playground • Near entrance and level ground; away from the grass area where children play Themes as to why support was not offered for this possible location for a dog park • Impossible to play in a clean park; dogs are allowed to play everywhere • Dog park should not be in the community park; dog owners in area are irresponsible • Posted that dogs are not allowed in the community park, but there's no enforcement • People walk their dogs off-leash; dogs chase birds and make messes on grass/play areas • Parking and traffic to/from community park is overwhelming, with sports and events • Lack of parking now; dog park congestion would push traffic into local neighborhoods • Location should be used for more pickleball courts; reserve for expansion of courts On January 22, 2018, the Parks & Recreation Commission received a report on this item, and voted unanimously to advise the City Council of its support for the relocation of the dog park. Based on the results of the public input survey, and the Parks & Recreation Commission's advisement, staff is recommending the City Council provide direction to pursue relocation of the dog park to the segment of Poinsettia Community Park initially envisioned for a multigenerational community center. Should the City Council provide that direction, staff would next initiate the requisite environmental review, and seek any amendments needed to the community park's master plan and permits. 21 of 83 Along with that direction, the dog park's designing, bidding and construction would be submitted as a new project request in the FY 2018-19 Capital Improvement Program Budget. Those processes would be carried out separately from the bidding and construction processes of the other amenities presently master planned for the Aviara Community Park -Phase II and Poinsettia Community Park-Phase Ill Construction Projects. Fiscal Analysis Staff recommends bidding the Aviara Community Park -Phase II and Poinsettia Community Park -Phase Ill Construction Projects together in order to achieve economies of scale, operational efficiencies, and synergies related to construction of the various park components. Sufficient funding is currently available for these projects. The table below provides the engineer's estimate and the available funding for each of the projects. Funding for the Aviara Community Park -Phase II and Poinsettia Community Park -Phase Ill Construction Projects was approved in the FY 2015-16 Capital Improvement Program Budget. Funding for the pickleball courts was added to the Poinsettia Community Park -Phase 111 Construction Project in the FY 2016-17 Capital Improvement Program Budget, and is included in the available funding shown below. Construction Project Engineer's Construction Estimate Funding Available Aviara Community Park-Phase II $2,710,560 $2,714,945 Poinsettia Community Park-Phase Ill $ 3,618,220 $3,622,660 . Total: $6,325,780 $6,337,605 In regards to the dog park, the costs associated with initiating the requisite environmental review, and seeking any amendments would be absorbed in the Parks & Recreation Department's FY 2017-18 Operating Budget. The dog park's designing, bidding and construction would be submitted as a new project request in the FY 2018-19 Capital Improvement Program Budget, for the City Council's consideration. Next Steps Upon the City Clerk's advertisement of the Aviara Community Park Phase II and Poinsettia Community Park-Phase Ill Construction Projects for bids, staff would administer the bid process. Staff would then review the bids received for responsiveness. Staff would anticipate returning to the City Council with a recommendation for award of a construction contract in Spring 2018. In regards to the dog park, staff would next initiate the requisite environmental review, and seek any amendments needed to the community park's master plan and permits. Environmental Evaluation (CEQA) On October 71 1992, the Planning Commission approved a Conditional Use Permit (CUP 92-5) and adopted a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) and a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) for the Poinsettia Community (Alta Mira) Park. On Aug. 6, 2002, the City Council approved a Conditional Use Permit (CUP 01-22) and adopted a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) and a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) for the Aviara 22 of 83 Community (Zone 19) Park. Both projects are within the scope of the prior environmental documents for the respective parks and no further environmental documentation is required per CEQA Guidelines Section 15162. All applicable mitigation measures contained in the prior environmental document have either been satisfied previously or have been incorporated into the Aviara Community Park-Phase II or the Poinsettia Community Park -Phase Ill Construction Projects' contract documents, plans and specifications. Should the City Council provide direction for staff to pursue relocation of the dog park as noted, staff would next initiate the requisite environmental review, and seek any amendments needed to the community park's master plan and permits. Public Notification The Aviara Community Park and Poinsettia Community Park Master Plan Updates underwent extensive outreach, including public participation meetings, online input and public hearings. Public notification of these pending construction projects occurred through the prior two advertisements for bids, and the prior two rejections of those bids. Staff notified the public of the possible new location for the dog park at Poinsettia Community Park through site sign age, a postal service mailer,_emails, the city's website, and social media channels. In addition, this item was noticed in ~ccordance with the Ralph M. Brown Act and was available for public viewing and review at least 72 hours prior to the scheduled meeting date. Exhibits 1.

AGENDA OF: August 21, 2019 Project Planner: Scott Donnell Project Engineer: Jennifer Horodyski SUBJECT: AMEND 2018-0011/CDP 2018-0048 (DEV 99035) – POINSETTIA PARK PHASE IV – DOG PARK – Request for a recommendation to approve a Conditional Use Permit Amendment and Coastal Development Permit for the construction of a dog park at Poinsettia Community Park located at 6600 Hidden Valley Road in Local Facilities Management Zone 20 and the Mello II segment of the Local Coastal Program. The City Planner has determined the project has no new significant environmental effects not analyzed in the originally approved Mitigated Negative Declaration for the park, and therefore no further CEQA compliance is required. I. RECOMMENDATION That the Planning Commission ADOPT Planning Commission Resolution No. 7343 APPROVING AMEND 2018-0011 and Coastal Development Permit CDP 2018-0048, based on the findings and subject to the conditions contained therein. II. PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND The city Parks and Recreation Department proposes to construct a dog park on an approximately one acre unused, previously graded site at Poinsettia Community Park. Located in the eastern portion of the park near its Hidden Valley Road/Plum Tree Road entrance, the proposal would feature separate enclosed facilities for small and large dogs enhanced with natural turf, trees and other landscaping. If approved, the dog park will also follow the park’s “phase III” improvements - a playground expansion, multi-sports arena, and pickleball courts now under construction at other park locations and planned for completion this summer. Nearest residences to the proposal are more than 200 feet east and are separated from it by Hidden Valley Road and a park parking lot. More information on Poinsettia Community Park improvements, including renderings of the proposed dog park, is available on the city’s website at www.carlsbadca.gov/newparks. Poinsettia Community Park, approved in 1992 as Alta Mira Community Park, is 42 acres. The proposal will amend the park’s conditional use permit. The original conditional use permit, CUP 92-05, expired and was replaced by CUP 05-12, which the Planning Commission approved in August 2005. Some features approved as part of the original CUP, including a tournament tennis court (now partially replaced by the under construction pickleball courts) and 22,500 square foot community center/gymnasium, will not be built. Because of its Coastal Zone location, the dog park also requires a coastal development permit. Due to resident requests over recent years, a dog park was included in the 2014 update to the Poinsettia Community Park Master Plan. Staff originally planned the dog park in a grassy bowl near the park’s west border. When the community expressed concern over this originally planned location, city staff requested 1 EXHIBIT 9 47 of 83 0 AMEND 2018-0011/CDP 2018-0048 (DEV 99035) – POINSETTIA PARK PHASE IV – DOG PARK August 21, 2019 Page 2 public input on alternatives dog park sites at the park. The community overwhelmingly supported a dog park just south of the main entrance from Hidden Valley Road, the site previously planned for the split- level community center/gymnasium. In February 2018, the City Council approved staff's recommendation to pursue a dog park in this location, which the submitted application reflects. The project site is generally void of vegetation and terraced by previous grading for the community center/gymnasium as well as dirt stockpiled on the site from construction of the other park improvements now underway. The site, including the stockpile, will be regraded to gently slope to the southwest and to a proposed bioretention basin that will collect runoff and pollutants. An existing grassy area separating the terraced area from a sidewalk and park landscape entry feature to the north will be regraded as well and replanted with shrubs and trees. Proposed improvements will not impact the existing sidewalks that border the site nor the majority of surrounding landscaping, including trees. The project will also not impact nearby park features, such as the adjacent sidewalks, basketball courts and park access road and parking lot. Just east of the existing stairs that lead to the center of the park from the Plum Tree Road entrance, a new concrete walkway is proposed that connects to a proposed shade structure, picnic tables, and gated entrances to the fenced dog park. The park will be split into two separate areas, an approximately 20,000 square foot enclosure for large dogs and a smaller, 7,500 square foot enclosure for small dogs. Both feature turf, trees, drinking fountains, and additional picnic tables and are bordered by six-foot-tall vinyl chain-link fence. Long seat walls (1.5-feet high) for dog park users are provided in combination with the fence along the northeast and southwest edges of both enclosures. Along the northeast edge, the seat wall and fence form a 7.5-foot high barrier. This portion of the dog park is approximately 2-feet or more below nearby sidewalks and will be enhanced with existing and proposed landscaping. At the dog park’s southwest corner, the seat wall caps a retaining wall proposed to provide more area for the adjacent bioretention basin, planned between the small dog enclosure and existing basketball court to the west. From the basketball court and nearby sidewalk, the retaining wall/seat wall will be visible to park users and will have an exposed height ranging from about 2.5 to 5.5-feet. Topped by the chain link fence, the total exposed height will reach a maximum 11.5 feet along an approximately 50 to 60-foot length of wall. Screening of the wall/fence combination will be provided by existing and proposed trees and shrubs along and around the bioretention basin. All seat and retaining walls will also have a sandblasted texture finish to match retaining walls at the nearby playground. Lighting of the dog park will be limited to fixtures attached to the proposed shade structure (primarily intended to illuminate the dog park entrance) and new pedestrian lights along the existing sidewalks to the south and east. Proposed lighting will remain on until 10 p.m. when park lights are turned off and the park closes. No additional parking is proposed as part of the dog park. Instead, the project will be served by the existing 361 parking spaces at Poinsettia Community Park, including those in the adjacent 49 space lot along Hidden Valley Road. While the park was approved in 1992 with 412 parking spaces (51 spaces were not built), existing parking is adequate to accommodate the dog park as significant components of the park as originally approved, including the community center/gymnasium, will not be constructed. The following tables and information demonstrate the adequacy of parking. 48 of 83 AMEND 2018-0011/CDP 2018-0048 (DEV 99035) – POINSETTIA PARK PHASE IV – DOG PARK August 21, 2019 Page 3 TABLE A – POINSETTIA COMMUNITY PARK PARKING REQUIREMENTS USE STATUS NUMBER OF PARKING SPACES PARKING RATIO Total parking spaces required, entire park 412 N/A Total parking spaces built, entire park 361 N/A 22,500 sf community center/gymnasium Approved by CUP 92-05, but will not be constructed 113 5 spaces/1,000 sf1 3,000 sf tennis clubhouse 15 5 spaces/1,000 sf1 Tennis tournament court with seating for 200 spectators 67 1 space/3 spectators2 Total parking spaces, uses not constructed 195 N/A Multi-sport arena field with seating for 120 spectators (Phase III improvement) Approved by CUP 92-05, now under construction 40 1 space/3 spectators2 Tot lot – combine three locations into one larger site of 0.25 acre (Phase III) 10 40 spaces/acre3 Pickleball with seating for 144 spectators (Phase III) Under construction 48 1 space/3 spectators2 Total parking spaces, Phase III uses under construction 98 N/A Parking spaces remaining for other uses in park, including the proposed dog park (total existing spaces minus Phase III spaces) 263 N/A 1Parking ratio is that required for gyms and health spas per CMC 21.44.020, Table A. 2Parking ratio for spectator seating identified in Planning Commission staff report for CUP 92-05/HDP 92-09. 3Parking ratio for tot lot identified in Planning Commission-approved exhibits for Alga Norte Park (CUP 04-08). While no parking standard exists for dog parks in the Municipal Code, Table B provides parking requirements for other existing dog parks in the city and elsewhere in California and compares the requirements to that recommended for the proposed dog park.

For example, Ann D. L’Heureux Dog Park along Carlsbad Village Drive, the city’s first dog park, has a disproportionately higher parking requirement than 49 of 83 AMEND 2018-0011/CDP 2018-0048 (DEV 99035) – POINSETTIA PARK PHASE IV – DOG PARK August 21, 2019 Page 4 other dog parks surveyed due likely to its somewhat isolation from residences and partial function as a trailhead. In any case, since the proposed dog park is within Poinsettia Community Park, can share its parking with other park amenities, and is within easy walking distance to surrounding neighborhoods, an estimated parking requirement of 10-15 spaces is reasonable. As Table A notes, after subtracting for the 98-space parking demand created by Phase III improvements under construction, 263 spaces remain available for all other uses at the park. This would include the existing baseball and softball fields, which have seating for 300 spectators and require 100 spaces based on the 1 parking space/3 spectators parking ratio the table identifies. The other existing park uses, which consist of two soccer fields, two basketball courts, ten tennis courts and unstructured play areas, are served by the remaining 163 spaces. None of these other existing park uses have spectator seating. Table A also indicates the three uses approved but not to be constructed at Poinsettia Community Park (i.e., the community center/gymnasium, tournament tennis court, and tennis clubhouse) would have required 195 parking spaces. The difference between this and the 98 spaces required by the Phase III improvements now under construction is 97 parking spaces. Subtracting the 51 spaces not constructed as part of the original park parking leaves a surplus of 46 spaces (195 – 98 – 51 = 46). This surplus supports the finding that existing parking at Poinsettia Community Park is adequate to support the recommended dog park parking demand of 10-15 spaces. Finally, the proximity of the proposed dog park should not pose an issue to nearby residents living along the east side of Hidden Valley Road. Distance, landscaping, parked cars, and topography provide a measure of visual and noise buffering. Furthermore, the city analyzed potential noise impacts from barking dogs based on a consultant-prepared study. The “Poinsettia Dog Park Project Noise Assessment” prepared by Helix Environmental Planning concluded the proposed dog park would not generate noise levels exceeding the city’s daytime (7 a.m. to 10 p.m.) noise limits for non-transportation sources. Therefore, noise from dog barks would be less than significant.

ANALYSIS The proposed project is subject to the following regulations: A. Open Space (OS) General Plan Land Use Designation B. Open Space (OS) Zone (CMC Chapter 21.33) C. Conditional Use Permit regulations (CMC Chapter 21.42) D. Local Coastal Program (Mello II segment) E. Growth Management Ordinance (CMC Chapter 21.90) and Local Facilities Management Zone 20 F. McClellan-Palomar Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan The recommendation for approval of this project was developed by analyzing the project’s consistency with the applicable city regulations and policies. The project’s compliance with the noted regulations and policies is discussed in detail in the sections below. A. Open Space General Plan Land Use Designation Poinsettia Community Park has a General Plan Open Space land use designation. The designation applies in part to recreation and aesthetic areas such as parks. The Open Space, Conservation and Recreation Element further clarifies Poinsettia Community Park is designated as Category 3 Open Space, or open space for outdoor recreation. Goal 4-G.6 of the element encourages Carlsbad to offer a wide variety of recreation activities and facilities to park users of all ages and interests. Combined with other amenities of the park, such as playgrounds and soon-to-be-completed pickleball courts, the dog park helps fulfill this goal. B. Open Space Zone Consistent with its General Plan designation, the park is zoned Open Space. In the O-S Zone, public parks are a conditionally permitted use requiring Planning Commission approval. The zone establishes no development standards other than a maximum building height of 25-feet, which may be exceeded through the conditional use permit process. The dog park is proposed to feature a single shade structure with a height under 20-feet. Otherwise, proposed structures are limited to features such as walls, fencing and picnic tables. C. Conditional Use Permit regulations (CMC Chapter 21.42) To approve or amend a conditional use permit, the Planning Commission must make the four specific findings listed in CMC Section 21.42.030. As discussed below, each of these findings can be made. 1. That the requested use is necessary or desirable for the development of the community, and is in harmony with the various elements and objectives of the General Plan, including, if applicable, the certified local coastal program, specific plan, or master plan in that development of a dog park at Poinsettia Community Park and in the location proposed is supported by the community and the City Council. Furthermore, as a public park amenity, the requested use is consistent with Poinsettia Community Park’s General Plan, Zoning, and Local Coastal Program designation of Open Space and with the 1993 Zone 20 Specific Plan, which identifies Poinsettia Community Park as a recognized future land use. The project also complies with Goal 4-G.6 of the Open Space, Conservation, and Recreation Element: “Offer a wide variety of recreational activities 51 of 83 AMEND 2018-0011/CDP 2018-0048 (DEV 99035) – POINSETTIA PARK PHASE IV – DOG PARK August 21, 2019 Page 6 and park facilities designed to encourage educational benefits and active or passive participation by users of all ages and interests.” 2. That the requested use is not detrimental to existing uses or to uses specifically permitted in the zone in which the proposed use is to be located in that the proposal’s design fits well with and complements its surroundings and is a typical public park use. Further, by developing a vacant, unimproved area, the dog park will improve the appearance of the park’s main entrance and provide a desired, conveniently accessible public amenity. 3. That the site for the proposed conditional use is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the yards, setbacks, walls, fences, parking, loading facilities, buffer areas, landscaping and other development features prescribed in this code and required by the City Planner, Planning Commission or City Council, in order to integrate the use with other uses in the neighborhood in that the approximately one acre site can adequately accommodate a large fenced, dog play area within a surrounding buffer of existing and proposed landscaping. Additionally, the project is convenient to the park’s sidewalk network and its Plum Tree Road entrance and nearby 49- space parking lot, which provide adequate access for park visitors and surrounding residents. Further, the 361 parking spaces available at Poinsettia Community Park are adequate to accommodate existing and under construction uses and the proposed dog park. Finally, the city analyzed potential noise impacts from barking dogs based on a consultant-prepared study. The “Poinsettia Dog Park Project Noise Assessment” prepared by Helix Environmental Planning concluded the proposed dog park would not generate noise levels exceeding the city’s daytime (7 a.m. to 10 p.m.) noise limits for non-transportation sources. Therefore, noise from dog barks would be less than significant. 4. That the street system serving the proposed use is adequate to properly handle all traffic generated by the proposed use in that the dog park will not generate more traffic than was anticipated with the full development of Poinsettia Community Park as approved in 1992, particularly since three components of the original approval (the 22,500 square foot community center/gymnasium, tournament tennis court, and tennis clubhouse) will not be built. Further, the dog park is not expected to add significantly to existing traffic levels as its estimated traffic generation is 50 – 75 average daily trips (ADT). In addition, users will likely drive to the dog park during off-peak hours (e.g., weekday evenings and weekends) or walk to it from surrounding homes. D. Local Coastal Program The Local Coastal Program designates and zones Poinsettia Community Park as Open Space. The project does not conflict with any Coastal Zone regulations or policies with which development must comply, such as a policy or standard concerned with agricultural, habitat or steep slope preservation or coastal access. E. Growth Management Ordinance (CMC Chapter 21.90) and Local Facilities Management Zone 20 The proposed dog park is within Local Facilities Management Zone 20 in the city’s Southwest Quadrant. Construction of Poinsettia Park was anticipated by the Local Facilities Management Plan for Zone 20, and the park helps the zone meet the parks performance standard. The impacts on public facilities created by the proposed dog park and its compliance with the adopted performance standards are summarized in the table below. 52 of 83 AMEND 2018-0011/CDP 2018-0048 (DEV 99035) – POINSETTIA PARK PHASE IV – DOG PARK August 21, 2019 Page 7 TABLE D – GROWTH MANAGEMENT COMPLIANCE STANDARD IMPACTS COMPLIANCE City Administration N/A N/A Library N/A N/A Waste Water Treatment N/A N/A Parks N/A N/A Drainage N/A N/A Circulation 50 -75 ADT1 Yes Fire Station 4 Yes Open Space N/A N/A Schools N/A N/A Sewer Collection System N/A N/A Water 2,280 gallons per day (GPD) (approx. 2,268 GPD reclaimed water for irrigation, 12 GPD for drinking fountains) Yes 150 ADT, or average daily trips, is the per acre estimate for city parkland as identified in the San Diego Association of Governments’ 2002 traffic generation rates; 75 ADT is the per acre estimate for Alga Norte Park (less the aquatics complex) as identified in the Planning Commission-approved exhibits for the park (CUP 04-08). The proposed dog park is approximately one acre. F. McClellan-Palomar Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan Poinsettia Community Park is near the western edge of Safety Zone 6 as identified in the McClellan- Palomar Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan. Safety zones are established for the purpose of evaluating the safety compatibility of land use proposals in the influence area of the airport. In Safety Zone 6, parks are identified as a compatible use. The park is not within an identified airport noise contour and therefore is not subject to any measures necessary to reduce impacts of airport noise. IV. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW On October 7, 1992, the Planning Commission approved a Conditional Use Permit (CUP 92-5) and adopted a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) and a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) for the Poinsettia Community Park. The project is within the scope of the prior environmental document and no further environmental documentation is required per CEQA Guidelines Section 15162. All applicable mitigation measures contained in the prior environmental document have either been satisfied previously, will be incorporated into the Poinsettia Community Park - Phase IV construction contract documents, plans and specifications, are existing Parks and Recreation Department policy (e.g., turning off park lights at 10 p.m.), and/or are recommended conditions of approval. V. DEVELOPMENT PROJECT PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT POLICY The proposed project is subject to the Early Public Notice and the Enhanced Stakeholder Outreach processes outlined in City Council Policy No. 84 – Development Project Public Involvement Policy. The policy requires applicants of certain development projects to provide an opportunity for and consider input from interested and affected stakeholders prior to project consideration by city decision makers. The city outreach conducted as described below satisfies Policy No. 84 requirements. 53 of 83 AMEND 2018-0011/CDP 2018-0048 (DEV 99035) – POINSETTIA PARK PHASE IV – DOG PARK August 21, 2019 Page 8 In late 2017, the Parks and Recreation Department employed a variety of means to publicize and survey residents and park users on the concept of relocating the dog park from its originally planned location along the park’s west boundary to the site now proposed. Methods included mailers, email notifications, social media posts, and on-site surveys during the week and weekend. Of the 678 responses received, nearly 80 percent favored the dog park relocation. Following project submittal in November 2018, public notice and informational signs were installed at the dog park site and early public notices were mailed advising of the application. In lieu of advertising a public meeting to share the dog park concept plan and visual simulations, interested parties were invited to access information via a website link (www.carlsbadca.gov/newparks) that was included in the early public notice letter and on the informational sign installed on site. The linked website included a dog park site plan and color renderings. The early public notice letter, sign and website also included contact information for the city’s project manager and project planner. In response to the noticing and signs, 55 comments were received. Nearly 90% of the comments requested using a grass surface for the dog park rather than bark mulch. Many respondents stated that the bark mulch has splinters which get in their pets’ eyes and paws; the mulch smells of urine over time; and it camouflages feces and becomes unsanitary. Many individuals noted that they prefer taking their pets to dog parks in Encinitas that have grass, such as the Encinitas Community Park. Since receiving the responses, the Parks and Recreation Department has revised project plans and replaced the mulch with grass. Additionally, several comments had suggestions including incorporating benches, shaded areas, and draining water dishes for dogs; creating equal size areas for small and large dogs; using artificial turf because it is easier to see messes and saves water; and relocating the dog park to the ‘grassy bowl’ or to the area where the multi-sport arena field is being constructed. Those not in favor of the dog park cited concerns such as odors emanating from the dog park to the new pickleball courts; using city funds for a dog park; and traffic/parking concerns.

CASE NAME: POINSETTIA PARK PHASE IV – DOG PARK CASE NO.: AMEND 2018-0011/CDP 2018-0048 (DEV 99035) WHEREAS, City of Carlsbad, “Developer,” has filed a verified application on the portion of Poinsettia Community Park described as: That portion of the west half of Section 21, Township 12 South, Range 4 West, San Bernardino Meridian, in the City of Carlsbad, County of San Diego, State of California, according to United States Government Survey, described as follows: Commencing at the south quarter corner of said Section 21 as shown on La Costa Downs Unit No. 1, according to map thereof no. 2013, filed in the Office of County Recorder of San Diego County, April 6, 1927; thence along the north- south center line of said Section 21, North 00°00'24" East, 1124.13 Feet to the true point of beginning; thence continuing along said north-south center line, North 00°00'24" East, 1119.74 feet to the intersection with the southerly line of Rancho Aqua Hedionda as established by decree under Superior Court Case No. 16820; thence along said southerly line, North 89°50'30" West, 1169.18 Feet to the northwest corner of land described in Parcel 1 in deed to Charles J. Kramer, et ux, recorded September 16, 1958, in Book 7256, Page 331 of Official Records; thence along the westerly line of said Parcel 1 of Kramer's Land, South 00°00'40" East, 1116.28 feet to an intersection with a line which bears North 89°40'20" West, from the true point of beginning; thence South 89°40'20" East, 1168.86 feet to the true point of beginning (“the Property”); and WHEREAS, said verified application constitutes a request for a Conditional Use Permit Amendment (of Conditional Use Permit CUP 05-12) and a Coastal Development Permit as shown on Exhibit(s) “A”- “F” dated August 21, 2019, on file in the Planning Division POINSETTIA PARK PHASE IV – DOG PARK – AMEND 2018-0011/CDP 2018-0048, as provided by the conditions of approval of CUP 05-12 and Chapter 21.42 and Chapter 21.201 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission did, on August 21, 2019, hold a duly noticed public hearing as prescribed by law to consider said request; and PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 7343 55 of 83 PC RESO NO. 7343 -2- WHEREAS, at said public hearing, upon hearing and considering all testimony and arguments, if any, of all persons desiring to be heard, said Commission considered all factors relating to the CUP amendment; and WHEREAS, on August 3, 2005, the Planning Commission approved CUP 05-12, as described and conditioned in Planning Commission Resolution No. 5930. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED by the Planning Commission of the City of Carlsbad as follows: A) That the foregoing recitations are true and correct. B) That based on the evidence presented at the public hearing, the Commission APPROVES POINSETTIA PARK PHASE IV – DOG PARK – AMEND 2018-0011/CDP 2018-0048 based on the following findings and subject to the following conditions: Findings: Conditional Use Permit Amendment AMEND 2018-0011 1. That the requested use is necessary or desirable for the development of the community, and is in harmony with the various elements and objectives of the general plan, including, if applicable, the certified local coastal program, specific plan or master plan, in that the dog park is an identified project in the 2014 update to the Poinsettia Community Park Master Plan, is desired by the community based on public surveys and noticing conducted by the city’s Parks and Recreation Department in 2017 and 2018, and is in a location supported in 2018 by both the city’s Parks and Recreation Commission and City Council. Furthermore, as a public park amenity, the requested use is consistent with Poinsettia Community Park’s General Plan, Zoning, and Local Coastal Program designation of Open Space and with the 1993 Zone 20 Specific Plan, which identifies Poinsettia Community Park as a recognized future land use. The project also complies with Goal 4-G.6 of the Open Space, Conservation, and Recreation Element: “Offer a wide variety of recreational activities and park facilities designed to encourage educational benefits and active or passive participation by users of all ages and interests.” 2. That the requested use is not detrimental to existing uses or to uses specifically permitted in the zone in which the proposed use is to be located in that the proposal’s design fits well with and complements its surroundings and is a typical public park use. Further, by developing a vacant, unimproved area, the dog park will improve the appearance of the park’s main entrance and provide a desired, conveniently accessible public amenity. 3. That the site for the proposed conditional use is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the yards, setbacks, walls, fences, parking, loading facilities, buffer areas, landscaping and other development features prescribed in this code and required by the City Planner, Planning Commission or City Council, in order to integrate the use with other uses in the neighborhood, in 56 of 83 PC RESO NO. 7343 -3- that the approximately one acre site can adequately accommodate a large fenced, dog play area within a surrounding buffer of existing and proposed landscaping. Additionally, the project is convenient to the park’s sidewalk network and its Plum Tree Road entrance and nearby 49- space parking lot, which provide adequate access for park visitors and surrounding residents. Further, the 361 parking spaces available at Poinsettia Community Park are adequate to accommodate existing and under construction uses and the proposed dog park. Finally, the city analyzed potential noise impacts from barking dogs based on a consultant-prepared study. The “Poinsettia Dog Park Project Noise Assessment” prepared by Helix Environmental Planning concluded the proposed dog park would not generate noise levels exceeding the city’s daytime (7 a.m. to 10 p.m.) noise limits for non-transportation sources. Therefore, noise from dog barks would be less than significant. 4. That the street system serving the proposed use is adequate to properly handle all traffic generated by the proposed use, in that the dog park will not generate more traffic than was anticipated with full development of Poinsettia Community Park as approved in 1992, particularly since three components of the original approval (the 22,500 square foot community center/gymnasium, tournament tennis court, and tennis clubhouse) will not be constructed. Further, the dog park is not expected to add significantly to existing traffic levels as its estimated traffic generation is 50 – 75 average daily trips (ADT). In addition, users will likely drive to the dog park during off-peak hours (e.g., weekday evenings and weekends) or walk to it from surrounding homes. Coastal Development Permit CDP 2018-0048 5. That the proposed development is in conformance with the Certified Local Coastal Program and all applicable policies in that the dog park, located on a previously graded area within Poinsettia Community Park, is consistent with the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance, does not pose any impacts to coastal resources such as agriculture, habitat or steep slopes, does not interfere with coastal access, and enhances public recreational opportunities within the Coastal Zone. 6. The proposal is in conformity with the public access and recreation policies of Chapter 3 of the Coastal Act in that the project does not interfere with public access to the coastline or public opportunities for coastal recreational uses. Conversely, the project enhances public recreation at an existing park nearly one mile east of the beach. 7. The project is consistent with the provisions of the Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone (Chapter 21.203 of the Zoning Ordinance) in that the project will adhere to the city's Master Drainage Plan, Grading Ordinance, Storm Water Ordinance, BMP Design Manual and Jurisdictional Runoff Management Program (JRMP) to avoid increased urban runoff, pollutants, and soil erosion. No steep slopes or native vegetation is located on the subject property and the site is not located in an area prone to landslides, or susceptible to accelerated erosion, floods, or liquefaction. General 8. The project is consistent with the Citywide Facilities and Improvements Plan, the Local Facilities Management Plan for Zone 20 and all city public facility policies and ordinances in that the project will improve the wastewater treatment process by improving the primary treatment process of 57 of 83 PC RESO NO. 7343 -4- wastewater flows and replace aging equipment. Furthermore, project operations will not result in any significant increased traffic and will thus not result in any substantial deterioration of the public roadway system, nor generate a need for other governmental services, such as emergency services. 9. That the project is consistent with the city’s Landscape Manual and Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance (Carlsbad Municipal Code Chapter 18.50). 10. The Planning Commission approved a Conditional Use Permit (CUP 92-5) and adopted a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) and a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) for the Poinsettia Community Park on October 7, 1992. The project is within the scope of the prior environmental document and no further environmental documentation is required per CEQA Guidelines Section 15162. All applicable mitigation measures contained in the prior environmental document have either been satisfied previously, will be incorporated into the Poinsettia Community Park - Phase IV construction contract documents, plans and specifications, are existing Parks and Recreation Department policy (e.g., turning off park lights at 10 p.m.), and/or are recommended conditions of approval. 11. The Planning Commission has 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. Conditions: NOTE: Unless otherwise specified herein, all conditions shall be satisfied prior to issuance of a notice to proceed or approval of a grading permit or building permit, whichever occurs first. 1. If any of the following conditions fail to occur, or if they are, by their terms, to be implemented and maintained over time, if any of such conditions fail to be so implemented and maintained according to their terms, the city shall have the right to revoke or modify all approvals herein granted; deny or further condition issuance of all future building permits; deny, revoke, or further condition all certificates of occupancy issued under the authority of approvals herein granted; record a notice of violation on the property title; institute and prosecute litigation to compel their compliance with said conditions or seek damages for their violation. No vested rights are gained by Developer or a successor in interest by the city’s approval of this Conditional Use Permit Amendment and Coastal Development Permit. 2. Staff is authorized and directed to make, or require the Developer to make, all corrections and modifications to the Conditional Use Permit Amendment and Coastal Development Permit documents, as necessary to make them internally consistent and in conformity with the final action on the project. Development shall occur substantially as shown on the approved Exhibits. Any proposed development, different from this approval, shall require an amendment to this approval. 3. Developer shall comply with all applicable provisions of federal, state, and local laws and regulations in effect at the time of grading or building permit issuance. 58 of 83 PC RESO NO. 7343 -5- 4. If any condition for construction of any public improvements or facilities, or the payment of any fees in-lieu thereof, imposed by this approval or imposed by law on this Project are challenged, this approval shall be suspended as provided in Government Code Section 66020. If any such condition is determined to be invalid, this approval shall be invalid unless the City Council determines that the project without the condition complies with all requirements of law. 5. Developer/Operator shall and does hereby agree to indemnify, protect, defend, and hold harmless the City of Carlsbad, its Council members, officers, employees, agents, and representatives, from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, demands, claims and costs, including court costs and attorney’s fees incurred by the city arising, directly or indirectly, from (a) city’s approval and issuance of this Conditional Use Permit Amendment and Coastal Development Permit, (b) city’s approval or issuance of any permit or action, whether discretionary or nondiscretionary, in connection with the use contemplated herein, and (c) Developer/Operator’s installation and operation of the facility permitted hereby, including without limitation, any and all liabilities arising from the emission by the facility of electromagnetic fields or other energy waves or emissions. This obligation survives until all legal proceedings have been concluded and continues even if the city’s approval is not validated. 6. Prior to the issuance of a building permit, the Developer shall provide proof to the Building Division from the Carlsbad Unified School District that this project has satisfied its obligation to provide school facilities. 7. This project shall comply with all conditions and mitigation measures which are required as part of the Zone 20 Local Facilities Management Plan and any amendments made to that Plan prior to the issuance of building permits. 8. Building permits will not be issued for this project unless the local agency providing water and sewer services to the project provides written certification to the city that adequate water service and sewer facilities, respectively, are available to the project at the time of the application for the building permit, and that water and sewer capacity and facilities will continue to be available until the time of occupancy. 9. Developer shall submit to the city a Notice of Restriction executed by the owner of the real property to be developed. Said notice is to be filed in the office of the County Recorder, subject to the satisfaction of the City Planner, notifying all interested parties and successors in interest that the City of Carlsbad has issued a Conditional Use Permit Amendment and Coastal Development Permit by Resolution No. 7343 on the property. Said Notice of Restriction shall note the property description, location of the file containing complete project details and all conditions of approval as well as any conditions or restrictions specified for inclusion in the Notice of Restriction. The City Planner has the authority to execute and record an amendment to the notice which modifies or terminates said notice upon a showing of good cause by the Developer or successor in interest. 10. Developer shall submit and obtain Parks and Recreation Director approval of a Final Landscape and Irrigation Plan showing conformance with the approved Preliminary Landscape Plan and the city’s Landscape Manual. Developer shall construct and install all landscaping and irrigation as shown on the approved Final Plans. All landscaping shall be maintained in a healthy and thriving 59 of 83 PC RESO NO. 7343 -6- condition, free from weeds, trash, and debris. All irrigation systems shall be maintained to provide the optimum amount of water to the landscape for plant growth without causing soil erosion and runoff. 11. CUP 05-12, as amended by AMEND 2018-0011, shall be reviewed by the City Planner annually to determine if all conditions of this permit have been met and that the use does not have a substantial negative effect on surrounding properties or the public health, safety and general welfare. If the City Planner determines that: 1) the Conditional Use Permit was obtained by fraud or misrepresentation; or 2) the use for which such approval was granted is not being exercised; or 3) the Conditional Use Permit is being or recently has been exercised contrary to any of the terms or conditions of approval or the conditions of approval have not been met; or 4) the use for which such approval was granted has ceased to exist or has been suspended for one year or more; or 5) the use is in violation of any statute, ordinance, law or regulation; or 6) the use permitted by the Conditional Use Permit is being or has been so exercised as to be detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare or so as to constitute a nuisance, the City Planner shall recommend that the Planning Commission hold a public hearing and after providing the permittee the opportunity to be heard, the Planning Commission may revoke and terminate the Conditional Use Permit in whole or in part, reaffirm the Conditional Use Permit, modify the conditions or impose new conditions. 12. This Conditional Use Permit is granted without an expiration date. This permit may be revoked at any time after a public hearing, if it is found that the use has a substantial detrimental effect on surrounding land uses and the public’s health and welfare, or the conditions imposed herein have not been met. Engineering General 13. Prior to hauling dirt or construction materials to or from any proposed construction site within this project, developer shall apply for and obtain approval from the city engineer for the proposed haul route. 14. This project is approved upon the express condition that building permits will not be issued for the development of the subject property, unless the district engineer has determined that adequate water and sewer facilities are available at the time of permit issuance and will continue to be available until time of occupancy.

The restroom would have similar architecture and materials as other restrooms in the park. Both the parking lot and restroom would be constructed at a later date as part of Phase IV park improvements. Prior to their construction, the Parks & Recreation Department will include them in a MP update for City Council approval. A Consistency Determination is requested so the parking lot and restroom may be included in the proposed MP update. BACKGROUND The California Coastal Commission (CCC) issued a Coastal Development Per_mit (CDP 6-92-182} for Poinsettia Park on February 16, 1992. The approval included 20,000 square feet of building coverage and 412 parking spaces. The City Council adopted Resolution No. 92-255 at its August 11, 1992 meeting, accepting the MP and approving Alternative A-2 in the MP, which included a 22,500 square-foot community center/gymnasium, 2,800 square-foot tennis clubhouse, and 412 parking spaces. Finally, the Planning Commission approved the conditional use permit for Poinsettia Park (CUP 92-05, superseded by CUP 05-12) on October 7, 1992. The approval was consistent with the City Council-approved Alternative A-2. The MP was updated at the City Council's December 9, 2014 meeting. At that meeting the City Council directed staff to pursue proposals for a feasibility study and business plan for an expansive two story multi-use, multi-generational community recreation center at the park, which would replace the tennis clubhouse, community center/gymnasium, and other uses. In 2017, the City Council determined Poinsettia Park was not a feasible location for a multi-generational center. A dog park and pickleball courts instead of the center were later approved. The remaining unplanned area of the MP is now proposed for use as restroom and a parking lot. After careful consideration of the request, the City Planner has determined that the request meets all of the findings below and APPROVES this request This request only conceptually approves a parking lot and restroom at the northeast park corner. It does not approve the design of the parking lot or a specific number of spaces. For approval of project specifics, more plan details and review will be necessary. In order for a Discretionary Permit Consistency Determination to be approved, all of the following findings must be made: Community & Economic Development Planning Division I 1635 Faraday Avenue Carlsbad, CA 92008-7314 I 760-602-4600 I 760-602-8560 f I www.carlsbadca.gov 72 of 83 CD 2019-0022 {DEV99-035)-POINSETTIA PARI<-PHASE IV PARl(ING & RESTROOM October 31, 2019 Pa e 2 1) No project condition, feature, facility or amenity is changed or deleted that had been considered essential to the project's design, quality, safety or function in that the project does not propose removing any existing features and/or amenities and the site plan substantially conforms to the original approval. 2) The request represents an upgrade in overall design features and or materials and improves upon the project's compatibility with the surrounding neighborhood in that the restroom structure will include similar architecture and materials as the existing restrooms; is a needed amenity in the northeast area of the park and will complement the surrounding area; and is a typical park use. Further, developing a vacant unimproved area with a parking lot and restroom will improve the appearance of the park's main entrance and will provide a desired, conveniently accessible public amenity. 3) The proposed revision does not change the density ot boundary of the subject property in that Poinsettia Park is designated for public park and not residential uses and the restroom and parking lot do not represent an intensification of park uses or change parlc boundaries. 4) The proposed revision does not involve the addition of a new ldnd use not shown on the original permit in that the addition of a restroom and parking lot is consistent with the existing park features approved by the original and amended CUP and no land use other than those associated with park development are proposed. 5) The proposed revision does not rearrange the major land uses within the development in that no land uses will be rearranged. The proposed restroom and parking lot would be located on a pre- graded, undeveloped area of the park that was shown for parking and building development by the original and amended CUP. 6) The proposed revision does not create changes of greater than ten percent provided that compliance will be maintained with the applicable development standards of the Carlsbad Municipal Code in that the MP was originally approved with 412 parking spaces. Currently, 361 parking spaces have been constructed and the proposed additional parking would not exceed the maximum number approved. The MP was originally approved with a 22,500 square-foot community center/gymnasium and 2,800 square-foot tennis clubhouse. While these features have been omitted from the MP through subsequent approvals of other improvements, the proposed restroom will be approximately BOO square feet and will not result in a change of greater than ten percent of the approved building square footage. 7) The proposed change will not result in any significant environmental impact, and/or require additional mitigation in that the proposed restroom and parking lot will be constructed on an existing graded site that is surrounded by existing park uses. Building and grading permits will be required for construction of the proposed amenities, which will ensure that construction complies will all locai state and federal requirements. 8} The proposed change would not result in any health, safety or welfare impacts in that the restroom structure and parking Jot will meet all applicable standards, including parking, grading, landscaping, structural and building code requirements. 73 of 83 CD 2019-0022 (DEV99-035)-POINSETTIA PARK-PHASE IV PARKING & RESTROOM October 31, 2019 Pa e 3 9) There were not any major issues or controversies associated with the original project which would be exacerbated with the proposed change in that there were no major issues or controversies associated with the original approval (CUP 05~12}. 10} The proposed change would not be readily discernable to the decision makers as being substantiaffy different from the project as originaffy approved in that the features shown in the proposed MP Amendment are consistent with those approved by the CUP. The restroom design will complement the existing restrooms; it will be conveniently located in the northeast end of the park for patrons using the pickleba/1 courts, tennis courts, and the future dog park; and it will serve a need that would have been included in the community center. The proposed parking lot will be located in an area that was shown as parking in the original MP and will provide additional parking facilities for patrons. Therefore, the City Planner has determined that the application qualifies for a consistency determination with the approved permit and approves the changes to the project based on Planning Division Administrative Policy No. 35. Please submit two (2) blueline copies {24" X 3611 ) of all applicable exhibits for the project file. This could include an overall site plan of the park with location of new uses shown. On the plans, please make sure to note the restroom's architectural and material compatibility with the exist ing park restrooms. The copies must be submitted, stamped "Consistency Determination," and signed by the City Planner prior to issuance of any grading or building permits for t he project. The Consistency Determination Title Block stamp, and other Title Block stamps, can be downloaded from the City's website at http://www.carlsbadca.gov/servlces/depts/planning/applications.asp. The Tit le Block (stamp) is located at the bottom of the page. If you have any questions regarding this matter, please feel free to contact your project planner, Pam Drew at 760-602-4644.
