AGENDA OF: February 4, 2009 Application complete date: December 16, 2008 Project Planner: Shelley Esteybar Project Engineer: Tecla Levy SUBJECT: CUP 08-12 -7-ELEVEN GAS STATION -Request for approval of a Conditional Use Permit to allow the continued operation of an existing 7-Eleven gas station, generally located on the southeast corner of Palomar Airport Road and Paseo Del Norte within Local Facilities Management Zone 3. I.RECOMMENDATION That the Planning Commission ADOPT Planning Commission Resolution No. 6529 APPROVING CUP 08-12 based upon the findings and subject to the conditions contained therein. II.INTRODUCTION This Conditional Use Permit will allow for the continued operation of an existing 7-Eleven gas station located at 901 Palomar Airport Road. The original Conditional Use Permit (CUP 284x2) for this use expired on August 21, 2006 prior to the applicant submitting a CUP extension application. Accordingly, a new conditional use permit application is required to extend this use. The project complies with City Standards and all necessary findings can be made for the approval being requested. The Planning Commission is the final decision making body for this project. III.PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND On July 23, 1986, the Planning Commission approved CUP 284 to remove an existing gas station, and to replace it with a drive-through gas station and a permitted 7-Eleven convenience store on property generally located on the southeast corner of Palomar Airport Road and Paseo Del Norte. On August 2151, 1996, the Planning Commission approved CUP 284xl (ResolutionNo. 3956) to extend the use permit for a five year period. On December 4, 2002, the Planning Commission approved CUP 284x2 (Resolution No. 5303) to extend the use permit for an additional five year period. Condition No. 4 of the approving CUP Resolution No. 5303 specifies that CUP 284x2 is granted for a period of five years but may be extended upon written application of the permittee. Because the applicant did not submit an extension application in a timely manner as required, a new Conditional Use Permit is required to request the continued operation of the gas station. The gas station is currently operated in conjunction with a permitted 7-Eleven convenience store and is located within the vicinity of two other gas stations and the Flower Fields at the Carlsbad Ranch. It is adjacent to an existing commercial center as well as a Carl's Jr. Fast Food ,, •+r CUP 08-12- 7-ELEVEN GAS STATION February 4, 2009 Page 2 Restaurant. The gas station is located within the Commercial-Tourist, Qualified Development Overlay (C-T-Q) zone and is a permitted use within this zone subject to the approval of a Conditional Use Permit by the City of Carlsbad Planning Commission. Pursuant to Section 21.06.040(3) of the Carlsbad Municipal Code (CMC), the project is exempted from the requirements of the Q-Overlay zone in that the originally approved Conditional Use Permit (CUP 284) was for the replacement of an existing gas station with a new gas station and a permitted 7-Eleven convenience store. No additional square footage of more than one-thousand square feet was included with this proposal. The project site is also located within the CommercialNisitor Serving Overlay Zone. Pursuant to Section 21.208.130 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code (CMC), the proposed project is not subject to the provisions of the CommercialNisitor Serving Overlay Zone in that the project is an existing use that does not propose a change in use, does not require a building permit or a business license and does not propose an increase in square footage. Staff has historically performed annual reviews of the project in accordance with the conditions of approval. At each of the annual inspections, the project site was determined to be in compliance with the conditions of approval for the project. As a part of the current Conditional Use Permit (CUP) renewal request, staff determined that the landscaping needed to be refurbished and requested the applicant to complete the landscape improvements prior to taking the project forward for consideration by the Planning Commission. The applicant has addressed staff's concerns and has adequately refurbished the landscaping (see Attachment No. 7). The Planning Department is recommending that the Conditional Use Permit (CUP 08-12) be approved retroactively from August 21, 2006 and in perpetuity to allow the continued operation of the gas station located at 901 Palomar Airport Road. IV.ANALYSIS A.The existing gas station located at the southeast comer of Palomar Airport Road andPaseo Del Norte continues to be consistent with all applicable plans, policies andregulations described below: 1.The Carlsbad General Plan; 2.Title 21 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code; and 3.Local Facilities Management Plan for Zone 3. B.The adopted project findings for CUP 284x2, which are contained in Planning Commission Resolution No. 5303 still apply to this project (CUP 08-12) and are incorporated within the new resolution of approval. C.The adopted project conditions for CUP 284x2, which are contained in PlanningCommission Resolution No. 5303 still apply to this project (CUP 08-12) and are incorporated within the new resolution of approval with the exception of Condition No. 6 which has been satisfied, and Condition No. 4 which is replaced by Condition No. 9 in Planning Commission Resolution No. 6529 to approve CUP 08-12retroactively from August 21, 2006 and in perpetuity. CUP 08-12-7-ELEVEN GAS STATION February 4, 2009Page 3 D.No formal written complaints regarding CUP 284x2 have been submitted to the City. E.Annual reviews have been conducted for CUP 284x2 and the project is in compliancewith all conditions of approval. V.ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The Planning Director has determined that the project belongs to a class of projects that the State Secretary for Resources has found do not have a significant impact on the environment, and it is therefore categorically exempt from the requirement for the preparation of environmental documents pursuant to Section 15301 -Existing Facility, of the state CEQA Guidelines. In making this determination, the Planning Director has found that the exceptions listed in Section 15300.2 of the state CEQA Guidelines do not apply to this project. A Notice of Exemption shall be filed with the County Clerk upon approval of the project.
