Mr. Don Agatep, Planning Consultant, 2956 Roosevelt, reported stating there will be one access at the southern end of his property and the two existing driveways would be taken out.

Roy Sanchez, 3482 Roosevelt, spoke in favor of this request, stating the people in that area were in favor of the expansion. Jim Hicks, 2910 Managua Place, speaking for the Robertson family, stated they were in favor of staffs report recommending denial of the request and noted they would be willing to work with the Country Store and the mbile home park to have an appropriate intersection. Since no one else wished to speak on this item, the Public Hearing was closed at 6:53 p.m. In answer to query, staff stated the site is not adequate to contain typical neighborhood comrcial. Council Member Pettine asked whether it would be safer with the two present driveways closed and the new driveway put to the south end of the property, and the City Engineer answered that it would &e a safer situation. In answer to a question regarding the possible signalization of that intersection, the City Engineer stated one would be warranted at that spot. He also felt that a signal that close to the Kelly signal would be dangerous and might cause accidents. He did, however, ag-ree that this propxed access would be safer than what exists at the present time. Council Member Pettine inquired about the ,mssibility of the mbile home park using this one access at the southern end of this property, as proposed, and stated that he would be in favor of the GPA. He felt the citizens wanted this and Council could put a "Q" overlay on the C-2 portion requiring the site development plan to go to the Planning Commission. Council Member Lewis stated that he was in supprt of the concept, but he agreed a "Q" overlay was necessary. He also felt that if a signal were necessary at that corner, he would like to have it made clear who would pay for the signal. Council Member Chick stated he supported the C-2, and would like one safe entrance for the future residential on the hill and the possibility of the mobile home park using that entrance. 389 \v 5 COUNCIL 3 % MEMBERS % $ I l MINUTES December 10, 1985 Page 4 MEMBERS \I (57) PUBLIC HEARING: (continued) Mayor Casler stated she was in agreement, but she did not see how the mobile home park could use the same access. She would like to see an engineering design and have that made a condition. Council added a andition to this item stating that access from the mobile home park to this southern access, as proposed, be d esigned and approved by the City Engineer. Council added the "Q" overlay to this parcel and added a condition that if a signal is warranted at the new intersection, the developer will be responsible for the payment and installation of that signal. Council granted the appeal and directed the City Attorney's Office to prepare documents approving GPA/LU 85-3 and ZC-326, with the additional conditions. City Attorney Vincent Biondo added for, clarification, that the bcuments Flould contain conditions requiring elimination of the two existing driveways; relinquishment of the access rights to those driveways; and requiring one access at the south end of the property and developer responsibility for any signalization at that new intersection. 5.

Mayor Casler opened the Public Hearing at 7:18 p.m., and issued the invitation to speak. Ken Chriss, Architect, 2979 State Street, speaking for the Chamber of Commerce Growth Management Comnittee, stated they had sent charts out to a task force of architects to look at what would happen to the types of buildings with the density ranges proposed. He gave copies of three &arts to the Council Members only. He stated that fifteen planning and architectural firms had replied to this mailing and they took the actual maximum density range per building type and overlaid this with the City's new density ranges. He stated that there +.ould not be a lot of apartments from their conclusion of the building types. He felt that there would not be duplexes or triplexes, which muld be what people would be able to afford. He recomnded that the density range be left at 4 to 10. He said 4 to 9 is compromise to be able to live with, but 4 to 8 would cause problems in the future. His second suggestion was to create another category between the ranges of and 12. 383 a 7 Casler Lewis Kulchin Chick Pettine Casler Lewis Kulchin Chick Pettine Casler Lewis Kulchin Chick Pettine 0 MINUTES 0 December 10, 1985 Page 5 Since no one else wished to speak on this item, the Public Hearing was closed at 7:36 p.m. Mike Holzniller corranented that staff preferred not to work with the fractions as it made computation mre difficult. [Jsing fractions in the lower density ranges could increase the density rather than lower it. Mayor Casler stated that she felt a mmnittee of 25 persons from all areas of the City had. worked very hard on the density range reconmendat ion they had made and she was reluctant to go against their remmndations. Council Member Chick concurred. Council directed the City Attorney's Office to prepare documents approving GPA/LU 85-11, according to Planning Comission Resolution No. 2506 with the ranges recommended by the Planning Conmission.

AB #8435 - AElENDMENT ?o PARKING VIOLATION ENFOR~MJ?N!L' FEES. Frank Mannen, Assistant City Manager, gave the staff report as contained in the Agenda Bill. Council introduced the following Ordinance: ORDINANCE NO. 3195, A"DING TITLE 10, CHAPCER 10.42 OF THE CARLSBAD MUNICIPAL 03DE BY "UE AMENDMENT OF SECTION 10.42.010(b) ?n INCREASE THE SURCHARGE FOR PARKING VIOLATIONS BY $2.00. (113) 1 0. ME" FROM CqrJNCIL "5ERS LEWIS AND PETTIME. Council Member Lewis gave the hackground and stated they had proposed a three-point program. This program consists of urban land preservation, phasing and public facilities adequacy. Reference was made to a map showing the existing volumes of traffic on the streets in the La Costa area, project volumes for projects approved, and existing capacities. Mike Holzmiller explained the Traffic Engineering Department had made that mp and the Consultant was working on this at the present time. This chart shows, in a preliminary state, what the mnsultant's figures will show with the projects *proved in the La Costa area and the nunher of units. The Engineering Department and Traffic Engineering assigned volumes to each one and determined distribution for the traffic generated by the projects qproved. If you add the existing volumes and the potential volumes that could occur, this gives the potential volm of traffic as conpared with existing capacity of the streets. There are certain streets that could exceed their capacity and would need to be @roved in the interim. One of those streets is Rancho Santa Fe Road. Olivenhain and El Camino from Alga to La Costa and La Costa from El Cmino to the freeway are other streets that will need irrrplrovement. Traffic from surrounding cities and intersection capacities were not included. Mike Holzmiller stated there were three programs; the Urban Land Reserve, Phasing and Public Facility Adequacy Program. 1). The Urban Land Reserve muld include the areas held in reserve or set aside for future development. This is areas where no urban infrastructure or major public facilities are anticipated in the near future. Mayor Casler inquired whether this muld be voluntary on the part of the landowners, and staff stated that under this program it wuld be mandatory. 380 7 COUNCIL \p 5 % % MEMBERS % q Casler Lewis Kulchin Chick X Pettine e MINUTES 0 December 10, 1985 Page 8 2). Phasing would be a portion of the city, for exan-ple, (master plan area) munt or timing of development tied into provision for mjor ,public facilities services and infrastructure. 3). The Public Facilities Adequacy Program would be on individual projects, with a specific analysis of the adequacy of public facilities and services when the individual project was ansidered. Council Me&r Lewis stated the developer wuld know upfront where he stood. He also reanmended a six- mnth hold on La Costa projects until staff brings this program back. Mike Holzmiller stated that if Council approved this proqram, staff muld have to commit a great deal of time to work out the details. Other projects and other work would have to 'be delayed. Also, other remmndations from the Citizen's Cornittee wuld be held up if Council gave this a high priority. If this were a number one priority, !W. Holzmiller said they could come back within six mnths with a program. Bob Ladwig, 3289 Donna Drive, Rick Engineering, stated that the items discussed were not included in the packet. This program would slow down the collection of fees, which is the way to solve the problems that the City has toclay. He stated the major mncem was for traffic, and he referred to a transparency showing traffic figures. He felt those traffic problem need to be looked at now, and solved. He stated a mratorium would delay solving the problems. Growth should pay for its way and the facilities should be there when they are needed. Marylynn Brown-Bellman, 2638 Luciemaga, representing Neighborhccd Committee for La Costa stated they support the efforts of Council and offer their support and help in resolving the problems, Doug Avis, 11300 Sorrento Valley Road, Suite 101, San Diego, representing Rieri-Avis, stated that he or his partner attended all of the Land Use Committee meetings they did not hear anything regarding an urban reserve program, Bob Prescott, 3303 Belle Lane, stated he approved reviewing the La Costa master plan, He stated that he was in favor of controlled and managed growth. Bowever, he suggested the phasing and urban reserve programs muld preclude all but expensive housing and the City muld not have _busing for families of all salary ranges. Mr. Presmtt stated that the Land Use Review Committee heard from citizens all over the City, and the Cormittee did not recommend measures that are before the Council tonight. Ye felt this muld undo the wrk of the Conunittee. He remmnded Council implement the measures as remmended by the Land Use Review Conunittee and give them a dhance to wrk. 33? - \p 5 COUNCIL 3 9L MEMBERS % % a MINUTES e - - December 10, 1985 Page 9 Hal Kuykendall, 401 W. A Street, San Diego, addressed Council stating his project is an infill project. He is hoping he will receive encouragement from the City on this project, since he has followed all the rules as set down by them. W. Allan Kelly, 4912 Via Arequipa, stated he felt Urban Reserve would not be good for him or for the City. Council Memher Pettine expressed support for the three programs. Mayor Casler stated the major problems are density and La Costa Avenue, and the density range changes were approved earlier in the meeting, She expressed opposition to an Urban Reserve program. Council Mernber Lewis stated this was a conceptual idea only, and the examples used on the map were only for the purposes of shcrwing examples. In answer to Mayor Casler's request for clarification of this proposal, Council vember Lewis stated that he was asking Council to approve all parts of this program and to allow staff to co-me back with a report based on the information they obtained. Then Council would mdlce remmndations as to how to handle these problems . In response to query, City Attorney Vincent Biondo stated Council, by 4/5 vote, could inpse a moratorium, and explained the process and requirements. Council Member Chick stated he did not feel density was a problem in La Costa; that it was lower there than in mst of the City. Re stated the real problem should be identified and then solved. Mayor Casler made a mtion to have the City Manager brinq back a report on the cost and the timing of improving the intersection at La Costa Avenue and El Camino Real, widening La Costa to four lanes, widening the bridge over 1-5 and improving the off-ramps. Council Member Chick seconded the mtion. The mtion was later withdrawn. Council directed staff to review the entire La Costa Master Plan, with particular focus upon the processing mechanism for developer applications, conpatibility of land uses and adequacy of public facilities. Council directed all master plans be reviewed every four years, or at any time the Land Use Manager feels circwns tances warrant.
