A REPORT TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION
P.C. AGENDA OF: December 21, 2005
Item No. 0
Application complete date: September 1, 2005
Project Planner: Jason Goff
Project Engineer: David Rick
SUBJECT: PUD 04-0l(A) -VILLAGES OF LA COSTA RIDGE NEIGHBORHOODS
2.1 AND 2.2 -Request for a determination that the project is within the scope of
the previously certified Villages of La Costa Program EIR and that the Program
EIR adequately describes the activity for the purposes of CEQA; and a
recommendation of approval of a Major Planned Unit Development Permit
Amendment for building floor plans, elevations and plotting for the development
of 90 single-family detached homes within the Villages of La Costa, Ridge
Neighborhoods 2.1 and 2.2, generally located south of Alga Road, east of El
Fuerte Street, north of the HCP open space in Neighborhood 2.A, and is located
within Local Facilities Management Zone 11.
I. RECOMMENDATION
That the Planning Commission ADOPT Planning Commission Resolution No. 6007
RECOMMENDING APPROVAL of Major Planned Unit Development Permit Amendment
PUD 04-0l(A) based on the findings and subject to the conditions contained therein.
II. INTRODUCTION
The proposed project includes approval of architecture and plotting for 90 single-family dwelling
units located in the Villages of La Costa Ridge Neighborhoods 2.1 & 2.2. The lots for these
neighborhoods were created through Tentative Map (CT 04-02) and Planned Development
Permit (PUD 04-01), approved by the City Council on November 16, 2004. The Planned
Development Permits were required because of gated entries and private streets. Architecture for
the units were not proposed at that time and pursuant to Section 6.2.7 of the Master Plan, could
be processed at a later date through a Major Planned Unit Development Permit Amendment. At
over 50 units the project requires City Council approval. The applicant is now proposing
architecture and plotting for the subject neighborhoods. The proposed one and two-story homes
consist of four separate and distinct floor plans with living areas ranging in approximate size
from 2,844 to 4,213 square feet. The project incorporates four architectural elevation styles and
nine color schemes to provide variation throughout the project. The project complies with City
standards including the Villages of La Costa Master Plan and all necessary findings can be made
for the approval being requested.

III. PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND
Background
On October 23, 2001 the City Council certified the Final Program EIR, approved the Master
Plan, a Master Tentative Tract Map and related applications for the Villages of La Costa project.
The Villages of La Costa Master Plan establishes the permitted uses, development standards, and
design criteria for each neighborhood as well as the development review process to be utilized.
Master Tentative Tract Map CT 99-04 subdivided the area into open space areas and established
the neighborhood development area boundaries. Tentative Tract Map CT 04-02 created the
residential lots for Neighborhoods 2.1 and 2.2. A final map has recorded for The Ridge; grading
and improvement plans have been approved, and construction is presently ongoing.
Project Description
The project site, consisting of Neighborhoods 2.1 and 2.2 of the Villages of La Costa Master
Plan's Ridge Village, is generally located south of Alga Road, east of El Fuerte Street, north of
the HCP open space in Neighborhood 2.A, and is located in the Local Facilities Management
Zone 11. The subject neighborhoods contain 90 single-family residential lots that are a
minimum of 7,500 square feet in size. The Master Plan provides for architectural review of the
units through the processing of a Major Planned Unit Development Permit Amendment.
Because architecture and plotting were not a part of the previous approval, the applicant is now
applying for review and approval of building floor plans, elevations, and plotting. Pursuant to
the Master Plan, four different floor plans are being proposed with living areas ranging in size
from approximately 2,844 to 4,213 square feet. Proposed are 10, one-story units and 80, two-
story units, each of which have an attached garage providing parking spaces for two to three cars.
The project incorporates four architectural elevation styles and nine different color schemes to
provide variation throughout the project. The following table provides a summary of square
footage and elevation styles:

To determine compliance with the prov1s10ns of the Master Plan, a Major Planned Unit
Development Permit Amendment (PUD) is required for the development of homes in gated
neighborhoods with private roads.
IV. ANALYSIS
The recommendation for approval of this project was developed by analyzing the project's
consistency with the standards contained within the Villages of La Costa Master Plan. The
project's compliance with the Master Plan is discussed in detail in the section below.
Villages of La Costa Master Plan (MP 98-0l(C))
The project is located within the Ridge Village area of the Villages of La Costa Master Plan.
The Master Plan maps and text define the allowable type and intensity of land uses in each
village and provides detailed development and design standards, development phasing and
timing, and the method by which the Master Plan will be implemented.
The subject neighborhoods were divided into residential lots through CT 04-02, approved on
November 16, 2004, and compliance with the Master Plan standards relating to the subdivision
were analyzed at that time.
An overall goal of the Master Plan is to create a balanced, open space oriented residential
community. The development standards contained in the Master Plan support this goal by
describing the design elements that are shared by all neighborhoods within the three Master Plan
villages. The following table shows compliance of the proposed project with the
Architectural/Site Planning Design standards and guidelines contained in the Master Plan.

The Master Plan requires that each front elevation incorporate a minimum of 4 enhanced
architectural design elements and that each side and rear elevation incorporate a minimum of 2
such elements so as to create character and interest in the homes. The "Building Elevation
Design Elements" matrix has been included to show which elements are used for each elevation
and floor plan (see Attachment No. 8).
The proposed project is located within Local Facilities Management Zone 11 in the southeast
quadrant of the City. The impacts on public facilities created by the project, and the project's
compliance with the adopted performance standards were analyzed and evaluated at the time of
approval of CT 04-02.
V. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The proposed project has been reviewed pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act
(CEQA). Staff prepared an initial study for the project and concluded that no potentially
significant impacts would result with the implementation of the project that were not previously
