Discussion on the Cultural Resource Guidelines:
ITEM #3
Approved:
3-/;J.-(Y'
The Commissioners discussed the Draft Carlsbad Tribal, Cultural, and Paleontological Resources
Guidelines. They summarized their recommendations in five bullet points:
• The HPC should/will be notified when a decision to prepare an EIR is issued. We believe
the CEQA term of art for this step in the process is "Notice of Preparation". The earliest
possible notification to the Commission regarding sensitive projects will allow the
Commission to fully research each project and fulfill their charted duty to advise the
Planning Commission and the City Council on these projects. (Section 5.1 last paragraph}
• HPC will be notified on all non-confidential updates of the sensitivity models.
(Section 6.5)
• The commission suggests a flow chart in the appendix that outlines the entire process
including decision points and when the Commission will be notified.
