Marty Orenyak, Community Development Director, gave the initial staff report as contained in the Agenda Bill, with Charles Grimm, Assistant Planning Director, giving an overview of the Master ? Ian and the cond it ions recommended by the Planning Commission and staff. Mr. Grimm referred to a letter from the developer requestin! Areas G and M be al towed to continue to develop; however, staff recommends Council deny this request. Area G is dormatory units and teacher housing and both are educational dependent. Area M is similar, as it is neighborhood commercial uses and was justified to the C i ty as prov id i ng services to the students. 9 Mr. Orenyak explained that a 75,500 square foot educational facility must be constructed, with the first 25,500 square feet to be occupied by an accredited institution of higher education. The Planning Commission added that all leases must be five years minimum. The Planning Commission also recommended that the staff report be incorporated by reference to make certain there is no misunderstanding between the deve I oper and the City regard i ng the intent of the new conditions. Mayor Lewis opened the Pub1 ic Hearing at 7:Ol p.m., and issued the invitation to speak. Nick Banche, 810 Mission Avenue, Oceanside, Attorney for Sammis Properties, asked for approval of the extension as requested by the developer. Mr. Banche stated there should not be a time limit placed on the extension, and he 1 isted other projects that have taken many years to complete. He added that Mr. Sammis must return to the Counci 1 for approva Is and the City was at no risk. Donald Sammis, 7567 Navigator Circle, reiterated that he is serious about this project and the educational center. Mr. Sammis gave the history of the project and exp 1 ai ned the amounts of money spent for parks, school fees, lagoon mitigation fees, real estate taxes, interest, subd iv i s ion improvements and consu 1 tant fees. He said 75 houses have been bu i It to date and any prof it f ran those houses has gone back into the project. Mr. Sammis said he beiieved the demand for education wi l I come and he would like to go ahead with the research portion of the project. Larry Adams, 7577 Navigator Circle, representing Rosalina Homeowners Association, spoke in favor of the extension and the controlled greenbelt area.

He requested Council give the developer the ability to try. Ruth Lewis, 2001 Avenue of the Trees, read a letter from the League of Women Voters expressing opposition to the extension. They asked Counci 1 to open this Master P Ian for review and amendment. Roger Diamond, Roger D iamond Law Off ices, 21 15 Main Street, Santa Mon i ca, represent i ng Do I ores We 1 ty , stated the proposed educational park was a piecemeal attempt to get other types of commercial /industr ial deve!opment in the project. Mr. Diamond said Council cannot approve an extens ion, as it is an amendment and a major one, and requires a new EIR, subject to a full hearing. Dolores Welty, 2076 Sheridan Road, Leucadia, spoke in opposition to the extension and presented a letter to Counci I Members to be part of the record. Mrs. Welty expressed the belief that proper procedure had not been fol lowed by the City and there was no local coastal plan for this piece of property. Mrs. Welty said the General Plan is not adequate to support this amendment according to State guidelines, and added that the General P Ian shou Id be revised. Inez Yoder, 7738 Madri lena, spoke in opposition to the extension, stating that the building permits should be stal led unti 1 promises are met. She said the un ivers i ty has not materia I ized and has been downgraded to an "educational entity" and now "educational area". Mrs. Yoder asked Counci I to deny the amendment and go back for a re-design of the Master P Ian with cond it ions suitable for the southern entrance into Carlsbad. D. Kleinman, 7019 AI icante Road, spoke against the extension. Connie Stockman, 7123 Linden Terrace, for the residents of Sea C I iff development, stated she questioned the credibility of the Sammis development. She said the likelihood of obtaining a university is remote, as most of them are in financial straits. Ms. Stockman said that many other developers had donated space for parks and schools, and why didnlt Mr. Sammis have to donate part of his property for parks. She suggested the area reserved for the university be made into a park. Ms. Stockman stated she was concerned about what will happen to that area. Ms. Stockman stated that traffic is a concern, and she felt the bridge over the railroad tracks should be built before any more houses are built. She said her group recommended denial of the amendment and urged re- opening of the Master Plan for public review. 134 0 0 MINUTES July 11, 1989 Page 6 PUBLIC HEARINGS: (Continued) Robert E. Meyer, 7133 Linden Terrace, said Mr. Sammis had promised upscale housing and a unique educational park. He asked what there is to gain by approving the amendment and why for a per icd of five years; and why not year to year, until there is a final commitment on the educat iona 1 park. Joe Reed, 1008 Daisy Avenue, had two concerns; one, if the school building is vacant, that the developer might ask for a zone change to use the building for something e 1 se; and two, the length of time for the school leases, Mr. Reed said five years was a very short time for a school, and he asked for a 20-year lease minimum. Mr. Reed requested Counci 1 abandon the idea of an educat iona 1 park and instruct staff to work with the developer on other uses for this site. He suggested open space with a meandering stream, as the residents do not want a commercial building in this residential area. J im Swab, 3640 Adams, stated that poorly designed houses should be hidden and not in such a visible place. He felt the university would never be delivered. Mr. Swab sa id the City shou Id encourage projects on the site to merit national recognition and should give that challenge to staff. Ernest Passon i , Sea CI iff, stated he was a newcomer to the City, and felt the City was not making an effort to cooperate with the developer to bring a university to this area. Nick Banche spoke in rebuttal, stating he hoped the Cit remained as enthusiastic about this project as it was a the beginning and would work with Mr. Sammis to bring this Master Plan to fruition. Mr. Banche reiterated that Mr. Sammis must come back for further d i scret ionary approva 1 s. 'Y It Mr. Banche said this was not an amendment; but a request to extend and a recommendation to extend. Mr. Banche asked for approval of the extens ion and concluded, stating he felt it should be an unlimi-ted extension. Since no one else wished to speak on this matter, the Public Hearing was closed at 8:12 p.m. City Attorney Vincent Biondo, in answer to Council query, stated that a fu 11 E IR had been done and certi f ied on th is project and there was no evidence thai the existing EIR did not discuss the effects of the project. There was no evidence of a change in the project or any adverse effect on the physical environment, and no amendment to the Master Plan or any change in what cou Id be constructed. The argument that a new E I R is required is nonsense, as a 1 I matters have been ful ly addressed previously. In answer to Council query, Mr. Orenyak stated that staff had felt that due to the complexity of this project, a five-year review time would be appropriate. 17 8 I COUNCIL \F %PA "0 +% MEMBERS 2. tp 9 h 0% 0 0 July 11, 1989 MINUTES Page 7 7- I -~~ ~ PUBLIC HEARINGS: (Continued) David Bradstreet, Parks and Recreation D irector, exp 1 ai ned that Mr. Sammis had been requ ired to ded icate park I and in the A Ita Mira area, and the developer has put up one million dollars toward the purchase of the Sherman site.

Th is woujd mean that "other educationaI uses" could occupy no more than 20 percent of the total educational square footage permitted or constructed within Planning Area 11 AI1 .
