Mike Holzmiller, Planning Director, gave the staff report as contained in the Agenda Bill, using wall charts to indicate the previous design of the project and the present desian. Drawings were shown to indicate the placement of the building on the lot and the parking and driveway configuration. Mayor Lewis opened the Public Hearing at 6:3O p.m., and issued the invitation to speak. Sam Lavenuta, 1045 Magnolia, stated he was happy with some of the changes made in the project. However, he requested all the windows on the east side of the motel be obscure and the block wall be constructed prior to the construction of the motel. 322 0 0 MINUTES October 20, 1987 Page 4 PUBLIC HEARINGS: (Continued) Mr. Lavenuta stated his opposition to the driveway on Magnolia, stating traffic comes down that street very fast and this would create a safety hazard. Staff indicated the windows on the third floor were to be obscure, and Council could include the other floors in that condition. The wall is to be constructed prior to the motel and is already part of the conditions. Barbara Tuck, 1055 Magnolia, presented petitions in opposition to the Magnolia driveway and a letter from the Principal of Valley 3unior High stating his concerns over that driveway. She suggested the windows in all three stories he obscure on the eastern side. Mrs. Tuck concluded, stating the Manager of the motel would have no control of the parking lot with a driveway open onto Magnolia. Christopher Rooney, C. W. Kim, Architects, 8035A Camito de Pizza, representing Torr. Lin, stated this project has been worked on for two years. He displayed the newest design for the windows, showing glass for the first two floors, which would be covered by trees and the fence. He stated it would be impractical- to close off the entrance on Magnolia, but suggested a type of concrete and grass combination that might be used to discourage use of that driveway. Since no one else wished to speak on this item, the public hearing was closed at 6 :47 p.m. In response to Council query, staff stated the second access to the project was needed to accommodate large vehicles. To eliminate the need for the second access would require locating the mtel on the lot nearer the existing residences. Additionally, the Magnolia access could be designated as an exit only, but enforcement would be difficult. Staff also stated that the zoning on the property only allows for a hotel/motel, a restaurant, or a service station. Council Member Mamaux suggested signing within the project concerning presence of children in the area. Council Member Pettine expressed the opinion that the lot is not of proper size for a three-story motel. Council approved the Negative Declaration issued by the Lewis Planning Director; denied the appeal; and upheld the Kulchin x; Planning Commission approval of SDP 87-4, including Pettine requirements for obscure windows on the east side of the Mamaux P motel on the second and third. floors and signing in the Larson F project to alert people to be cautious because of the presence of children in the area. 32 / 0 0 MINUTES (29) (102) October 20, 1987 Page 5 11.

AB f9120 - Supplement 82 - REPOFIT OF RANCHO SANTA. FE ROAD ALIGNMENT COWlITTEE. City Engineer Lloyd Hubbs gave the staff report as contained in the Agenda Eill., explaining the process used to arrive at the report. He used wall charts to show the two proposed routes and an aerial photograph to show the area. Mr. Huhbs explained both proposed alignments are not final projects and would require further detailed design. Transparencies were used to show the advantages and disadvantages and the cost comparison, as contained in the Agenda Fill. Doug Avis, P. 0. Box 9000-266, representing La Costa Ranch Company, stated they could support the canyon alignment, but would want staff to know what it would take on the part of the City to put La Costa Ranch Company in a position to be able to accomplish that. Mr. Avis stated this would require approval of Zone Plan 11, the La Costa Ranch plan and assistance in financing . Mr. Avis stated La Costa Ranch Company was ready to negotiate with MAG Properties and the City to accomplish the re-alignment to the canyon route. Nick Banche, 810 Mission Avenue, Oceanside, representing MAG Properties, stated MAG Properties was awaiting Council's decision and was willing to work for a solution. 3ohn Waterstradt, 7312 Muslo, spoke in favor of the canyon alignment, playing a tape of traffic noise at an acceptable standard of 65 CML. Homer Hupf, 3341 Cadencia Street, requested Council approve Hunsaker 2, the canyon realignment, and reduce Rancho Santa Fe Road from a prime arterial. Mike Glass, representing the Circulation Committee, stated using the mitigated route for Rancho Santa Fe Road over the canyon route would be a serious mistake. The mitigated route would make a tunnel of walls and the relief would be mini.ma1. 320 0 0 MINUTES October 20, 1987 Page 6 DEPARTMENTAL AND CITY MANAGER REPORTS: (Continued) Girard Anear, 1728 Calavo Court, addressed Council stating the canyon alignment would cost from two to five million dollars more than the mitigated route, and he questioned who would pay. He asked if La Costa Ranch Company's project would be expedited to compensate for the costs. Mr. Anear felt no commitments should be made to MAG and La Costa Ranch Company with regard to density compensation on their projects. He felt there should be definite answers on the cost factors. Mr. Anear also questioned whether a fire station site could be found within six months. Marty Orenyak, Community Development Director, stated a site for the fire station was under consideration at this time. Mayor Lewis announced that the Circulation Committee had completed their task and was disbanded at this time. Council comments reflected preference for the canyon alignment, and concern about the cost. Mayor Lewis stated the construction of the canyon realignment would take much longer, perhaps four to seven years, and La Costa Ranch Company has to have the cooperation of the City to build this road. He stated the Growth Management Plan would not be violated, but it was important to understand that density transfers will be required. Council approved realignment of Rancho Santa Fe Road southeasterly in the general alignment identified as Hunsaker Alignment 2, and directed that required financing and planning efforts be expedited to insure the earliest possible construction of the roadway. Staff was directed to amend the Circulation Plan and prepare the necessary environmental documents. Staff stated they will return with information regarding the negotiations between La Costa Ranch Company and MAG Properties, and project timing, as an information item in two weeks.
