It was also pointed out that Phase-V was in the jurisdiction of the Coastal Commission. Jack Gleason, Newport Shores Builders said that he wished to amend their application to include Phase V only and that he concurred with the conditions of the Staff Report. The Commission then discussed Conditions #7 and #31. Condition #7 regarding two 15-foot wide public easements for pedestrian/equestrian use (The Com- mission asked that this condition be further dis- cus'sed with the Parks and Recreation Director) and Condition #31 to be changed to read "1-5" rather than "1 -6". As this Phase is in the jurisdiction of the Coastal Commission, there was much discussion as to whether or not the Coastal Commission would apDrove this Phase, what would happen to the subdivision if they did not approve this Phase, etc. It was decided by the Commission that the decision of the Coastal Commission should in no way affect the decision of the Planning Commission.

NEW BUSINESS Report to Planning Commission re intersection of Jefferson and Marron Road (Duck Landing). Planning Director Don Agatep read the following excerpts from the Environmental Impact Report for the Plaza Camino Real Expansion (EIR-295) - Page 2, Mitigation Measure No. 18 "Jefferson Street should be realigned so that it "T's" into Marron Road so that circulation will be improved and duck safety problems at the duck landing would be corrected." Page 115 "It is also recommend that the existing two-lane Jefferson Street roadway along the lagoon be realigned somewhat so that it 'IT'S" into Marron Road (see Figur.e 6-1). This would not only improve through traffic operations but would also correct ~ existing parking' and duck safety problems at the duck 1 anding. I' Graphics were then shown to the Commission.and Mr. Agatep stated that he' felt that the Engineering solutions were reasonable and adequate. Kent Whitson, Engineer with the City of Carlsbad suggested that a boxed culvert could be built so that the ducks could cross from the lagoon over to Hosp Grove for nesting without crossing Jefferson. 10 ti on \yes loes Abstain 4otion \yes - X X X X CITY OF CAWSBAD MEETING OF: PLANNING COMMISSION DATE: July 28, 1976 TIME: 7:30 P.M.

Planning Director Agatep gave the staff report stat ing that that during the City Coun'cil hearing on July 6, 1976, Mr. Paul Swirsky, Attorney for the Applicant, said that the temporary office building would be. removed in six months if building permits for the permanenet structure had not yet been se- cured, or when the City had adopted a redevelopment plan for the downtown, whichever came first. The, City Council announced its intent to reverse the Planning Commission decision of denial and to returl the matter to the Planning Commission for report. Because of a question raised concerning the Fire Chief's objections to the requested CUP, the staff further investigated his objections and found that the temporary structure was in violation of Section 2203, Chapter 22, of the Uniform Building Code. Mr. Paul Swirskey, Attorney 'at Law, 2965 Roosevelt, Carlsbad representing the Applicant reiterated his statement to the Planning Commission that he made to the Council stating that if they did not have building permits within 6 months, they would remove ..: their temporary structure. He also felt that they were in compliance with.the Uniform Building Code. There was a great deal of discussion between Staff, Commission and Applicant's representative regarding whether or not the temporary structure was in com- pliance with the Uniform Building Code. A minute motion was made that the City Council be advised that the Planning Commission did not make a decision regarding this case because they felt the decision should include a recommendation by the Advisory a.nd Appeals Board of Section 2203 of the Uniform Building Code and how it relates to this application.
