Jack Woodward, 6649 Towhee Ln., Carlsbad, stated his opposition to the commercial use of Area 23 and suggested that detached, single-family homes should be built instead of multi-family units. Guy Moore, 6503 El Camino Real, Carlsbad, voiced his concerns regarding traffic circulation in Area #23 and requested Council to the approval of this item conditioned upon Aviara Corporation’s dedicating and opening traffic on-site (Aviara Property) from Black Rail Road between Alga (Aviara Parkway) and the north sub-division boundary by January 1, 1998.

Mr. Clemens addressed the subject of Black Rail Road and stated that the land has been dedicated and bonds have been posted for the construction of the road.

Tom Krouse, 6637 Curlew Terrace, Carlsbad, expressed concerns regarding this annexation as well as the additional housing units proposed in previously heard Item #19, in that he feels there will be undue burden on many of the resources. He stated that he feels the developer is being allowed to build wherever and whatever he pleases with no notification to the current residents and no request for their input, not to mention the pace at which these areas are being developed. Mr. Krouse also stated that Council should continue this item pending more community involvement to ensure mutual understanding. Ted Griswold, of Procopio, Cory, Hargreaves & Savitch, 530 B. Street, San Diego, representing Welton and Carol Whann, 7137 Aviara Drive, owners of 288 Aviara Drive, requested that Council direct staff to involve the community regarding this development. Mr. Griswold referred to his letter to the Council, dated June 24, 1997, (a copy of which is on file with the City Clerk), and requested that staff also be directed to look more closely at the Environmental Review documentation for Lot #308. Janos Beny, 1886 Maya Ct., Vista, owner of Lot #92, pointed out that he attended the Planning Commission meeting of May 21 , 1997, and suggested that the minutes of that meeting were somewhat incorrect and asked that Council direct the Planning Commission to provide a copy of the electronic recording of that meeting. Mr. Beny alleged that Hillman Properties have known, all along, that Lot #308 was there and have always intended to remove it from an Open Space designation to develop. Mr. Clemens addressed the total number of units in the entire Aviara development. He stated that the original plan was for 2836 homes and the improvements were built with that number in mind. However, he stated, as they progressed in the development, the number was reduced and when the development is complete there will be 1850 homes, which the infrastructure will support. e e June 24,1997 CITY COUNCIL Page 7 Mr. Clemens, in addressing the annexation of Azure Cove and the perceived failure of the developer to communicate with the present homeowners, he pointed out that this annexation was brought before the Master Homeowners Association several months ago and their Board of Directors approved the annexation.

Don Jackson, 260 Normandy Ln., Carlsbad, representing a group of citizen named Advocates for the Northwest Quadrant, spoke in support of a Community Center and Gymnasium in the northwest quadrant. Mr. Jackson read a letter from Jeanne McFadden, dated June 24, 1997 (a copy of which is on file in the City Clerk’s office), urging that land acquisition be made and the development of a community center be scheduled in the CIP in the year 2000.

He also spoke briefly on the subject of indemnification by the State of California.
