PUBUC COMMENT
Joe Fallon, 3730 Yvette Way, spoke in opposition to a Leg0 park in Carlsbad, and referenced the recent
Carlsbad Sun poll results.
Marilyn Ratcliff, 3645 Marjorie Lane, NAIL Member, stated Council did not respond to the invitation to verify
the validity of the NAIL petitions she previously presented.

of the Carlsbad Sun poll and he presented a copy of a letter dated September 7, 1993, from Gary
Lawrence, President of Lawrence Research, evaluating the methodology used by the Carlsbad Sun
regarding a mail-in survey regarding Leg0 park.
Geoff Bell, 3686 Highland Drive, stated the Carlsbad Sun poll showed 61 percent against Leg0 and 39
percent for, indicating the majority of the 3,000 people who voted, do not .want the park. He requested

PUBUC COMMENT: (Continued)
Jim Young, 3951 Park, NAIL, spoke in opposition to Lego, and requested citizens be given the opportunity
to vote on the matter.
Karen Ireland, 4025 Crescent Point Road, stated Leg0 should be allowed to choose Carlsbad and then
go through the process detailed by the City to determine whether or not the park was something that
would benefit the City.
Glenn Bernard, 361 1 Cheshire Avenue, stated he felt that roof-to-roof homes would contribute more than
a Leg0 park to making Carlsbad an over-populated, over-visited place. He stated that it has already been
determined that Leg0 will build their park in Virginia and it is time to end the civil war here in Carlsbad.
PUBUC HEARING:
99 7. AB #12,382 - EIR 90-5/GPA 90-4/MP 150(G)CT 90-26/HDP 90-33 - CALAVERA HEIGHTS. 113
57 City Engineer Lloyd Hubbs explained the revisions to conditions 91 A (4), 91 A (5) and 91 A (7)
of Planning Commission Resolution No. 3518 as contained in the memorandum from the
Engineering Department to the Planning Department dated August 30, 1993.
Mayor Lewis opened the duly noticed Public Hearing at 654 p.m., and issued the invitation to
speak.
Lex Williman, Hunsaker & Associates, 101 79 Huennekens Street, San Diego, representing the
applicant, Lyon Communities, stated that Lyon Communities requests Conditions 91 A
(4), 91 A (5) and 91 A (7) be eliminated from Planning Commission Resolution No. 3518
and that the conditions be placed on Village ”H” instead.
Mr. Williman stated the major issue is the requirement to construct College Boulevard and Cannon
Road off-site. He detailed the plan for the dual left turn lanes for westbound Tamarack Avenue
to southbound El Camino Real, stating when that intersection failed, then the applicant would
proceed with the building of College Boulevard and Cannon Road.
Steve Sasaki, WPA Traffic Engineering, stated he reviewed the proposed dual left turn lanes
proposed by Hunsaker and there is still an additional traffic capacity at that intersection, if
constructed.
Ed Switzer, 4000 Skyline Road, stated there are no provisions for the school. The developer is
designating a site, but the District has to purchase that site. The developer stopped negotiations
with the School District. Additionally, the developer did not support the District’s Mello Roos, and
it failed. Therefore, there are no funds to purchase the site. He concluded, saying the District
sent a letter to the City saying there are no schools for this development and no provision for
schools.
David Stoffel, 4705 Edinburgh Drive, expressed concern about the traffic issue.
George Marhoefer, 4437 Mayfair Court, said he hoped there would be some open space and
public trail system as a part of this development. He also expressed concern with the
Tamarack/El Camino Real intersection with one lane for traffic traveling west.

PUBUC HEARING: (Continued)
James Sullivan, 31 76 Seabury Street, stated that safety should be the main consideration on this
project, and he expressed concern for the children going to the recreation center and Hope
School without College Boulevard being built to Cannon Road.
Larry Lamb, 4669 Woodstock, representing The Cape at Calavera Hills, stated the main concern
at the Planning Commission hearing was College Boulevard, as it would be approximately 40 feet
from the street to existing homes. This project was approved prior to the City of Carlsbad noise
abatement policies, and he requested a possible change in the alignment of College Boulevard.
Mr. Lamb said there is also concern about the intersection at Tamarack and El Camino Real. The
applicant states they would build Cannon and College when that intersection failed. Mr. Lamb
asked who would determine when the intersection failed.
Carolyn Prescott, 4669 Woodstock, opposed the project, stating there should be more
requirements placed on the applicant.
Daryl Pines, 201 1 Lee Court, expressed concern about the traffic in Calavera Hills.
Jim McCormick, 3994 Syme Drive, stated the applicant voted against the Mello Roos Plan after
they had stated they would support it. He asked for time to allow the applicant to meet with the
School District and satisfy the school requirement.
Lloyd Shier, 2990 Brandon Circle, stated there should be a buffer placed next to the residences
where College Boulevard is designed to be built.
