Findings:
Tentative Tract Map
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
That the proposed map and the proposed design and improvement of the subdivision as
conditioned, is consistent with and satisfies all requirements of the General Plan, any applicable
specific plans, Titles 20 and 21 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code, and the State Subdivision Map Act,
and will not cause serious public health problems, in that the six-unit residential air-space
condominium project created through the tentative tract map satisfies all the minimum
requirements of Title 20 and has been designed to comply with other applicable regulations
including the Residential Density-Multiple (RD-M) Zone, the Planned Development Ordinance,
Growth Management Ordinance, and the R-15 General Plan Land Use designation.
That the proposed project is compatible with the surrounding future land uses since surrounding
properties are developed and are currently designated as R-15 Residential or Village (V) in the
General Plan. The subject property is bordered to the north by multiple-family residential, to
the west and east by single-family residential, and to the south by an existing motel. Given the
existing, surrounding development, the multi-family residential condominium project is
compatible with existing and future land uses.
That the site is physically suitable for the type and density of the development since the site is
adequate in size and shape to accommodate residential development at the density proposed, in
that all required development standards and design criteria required by the Residential Density-
Multiple (RD-M) Zone and the Planned Development Ordinance are incorporated into the six-
unit residential air-space condominium project without the need for any variances from
development standards.
That the design of the subdivision or the type of improvements will not conflict with easements
of record or easements established by court judgment, or acquired by the public at large, for
access through or use of property within the proposed subdivision, in that the six-unit residential
air-space condominium project has been designed and conditioned so that there are no conflicts
with established easements and no additional right-of-way is required.
That the property is not subject to a contract entered into pursuant to the Land Conservation Act
of 1965 {Williamson Act).
That the design of the subdivision provides, to the extent feasible, for future passive or natural
heating or cooling opportunities in the subdivision, in that structures have been designed to
include operable windows on all elevations and balconies to maximize exposure of each unit to
natural light and ventilation from nearby coastal breezes, if desired.
That the Planning Commission has considered, in connection with the housing proposed by this
subdivision, the housing needs of the region, and balanced those housing needs against the public
service needs of the city and available fiscal and environmental resources in that the proposed
six-unit residential project is conditioned to pay an inclusionary housing fee for four units, or
six units if building permits for the six-unit project have not been applied for within two years
of demolishing the two existing single-family homes on-site.
That the design of the subdivision and improvements are not likely to cause substantial
environmental damage nor substantially and avoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat, in
that the six-unit residential air-space condominium project site has been previously graded and
developed with two single-family homes and is surrounded by existing development.

9. That the discharge of waste from the subdivision will not result in violation of existing California
Regional Water Quality Control Board requirements, in that the project has been designed in
accordance with the Best Management Practices for water quality protection in accordance
with the city's sewer and drainage standards and the project is conditioned to comply with the
National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) requirements.
Planned Development Permit
10.
11.
12.
13.
The proposed project is consistent with the general plan, and complies with all applicable
provisions of this chapter, and all other applicable provisions of the Carlsbad Municipal Code, in
that the density of 14 dwelling units per acre for the six-unit residential air-space condominium
project is consistent with the R-15 Residential Land Use designation (8-15 du/acre). As
discussed in the project staff report, the project is consistent with all minimum development
and design standards applicable to the property as contained in Chapters 21.24 (Residential
Density -Multiple (RD-M)) Zone and 21.45 (Planned Developments) of the Carlsbad Municipal
Code.
The proposed project will not be detrimental to existing uses, or to uses specifically permitted in
the area in which the proposed use is to be located, and will not adversely impact the site,
surroundings, or traffic, in that the six-unit residential air-space condominium project does not
propose or require any variances from standards, is compatible with existing surrounding uses
as permitted by the Residential Density -Multiple (RD-M) and Village Review (V-R) zones, and
does not create any traffic circulation impacts as Grand Avenue is adequately designed to
accommodate the 48 Average Daily Trips (ADT) being generated.
The project will not adversely affect the public health, safety, or general welfare, in that the six-
unit residential air-space condominium project has been designed to comply with all applicable
development standards to ensure compatibility with surrounding residential and motel uses.
The project's design, including architecture, streets, and site layout a) contributes to the
community's overall aesthetic quality; b) includes the use of harmonious materials and colors,
and the appropriate use of landscaping; and c) achieves continuity among all elements of the
project, in that the six-unit residential air-space condominium project is arranged with units
along a private drive aisle that is enhanced by decorative pavers. The two, three story buildings
with attached two-car garages are architecturally harmonious with each other and include a
variety of exterior materials and colors. Exterior building materials include two colors of stucco,
horizontal siding, metal facias, and stone veneer. Metal railings and decorative privacy screens
are located at the balconies, and contemporary garage doors are provided for each unit. All
elements (i.e. site layout, architecture, landscaping) create continuity in the overall project
design.
Growth Management
14. The proposed project is consistent with General Plan Land Use Policy 2-P.8 to exceed the Growth
Management Control Point (GMCP) in that the following findings can be made:
A. The project qualifies for and will receive an allocation of "excess" dwelling units, pursuant to
City Council Policy No. 43.
B. There have been sufficient residential projects approved at densities below the GMCP so the
citywide and quadrant dwelling unit limits will not be exceeded as a result of the proposed
project.

City Council Policy No. 43, Allocation for Excess Dwelling Units
15.

General
19.
That the project location and density are compatible with the existing adjacent residential
neighborhoods and/or nearby existing or planned uses in that the project is consistent with the
adjacent residential land uses and anticipated uses. Specifically, the project is located within
the R-15 Residential General Plan Land Use Designation and Residential Density-Multiple {RD-
M) zone, which consists of single-family homes as well as attached multiple-family residential
apartment buildings that are approved at a similar density {8-15 du/ac) as the density of the
proposed project {14 du/ac).
That the project location and density are in accordance with the applicable provisions of the
General Plan and any other applicable planning document, in that the density range of the R-15
Residential General Plan Land Use Designation is 8 to 15 dwelling units per acre. With a net
acreage of 0.43 acres, the proposed project has a density of 14 dwelling units per acre.
Therefore, the proposed project density falls within the allowable density range.
That the project complies with the findings stated in the General Plan Land Use Element for
projects that exceed the GMCP for the applicable density range, in that there have been sufficient
residential projects in the Northwest Quadrant that have developed at densities below the
GMCP such that the allocation of one dwelling unit would not result in exceeding the quadrant
limit. The project is conditioned to pay the appropriate fees to comply with the city's Growth
Management Program. Lastly, the city's public facilities plans will not be adversely impacted as
the allocation of one unit has already been analyzed and anticipated within the Northwest
Quadrant.
That there are an adequate number of units in the Excess Dwelling Unit Bank in the Northwest
Quadrant to allocate one unit. Per the city's Quadrant Dwelling Unit Report, 133 units remain
available for allocation in Northwest Quadrant, outside of the Village.
The Planning Commission finds that the project, as conditioned herein, is in conformance with
the Elements of the city's General Plan based on the facts set forth in the staff report dated May
16, 2018, including, but not limited to the following:
A. Land Use -The six-unit residential air-space condominium project is consistent with the
elements and objectives of the General Plan as discussed in Section "A" of the project staff
report. The six-unit residential project density at 14 dwelling units per acre is within the R-
15 Residential density range of 8-15 du/ac. However, the project is one dwelling unit above
the GMCP {11.5 du/ac) and, therefore, one dwelling unit will be withdrawn from the city's
excess dwelling unit bank consistent with City Council Policy No. 43.
B. Mobility-The project will take access off Grand Avenue, which has full street improvements
along its frontage. The project has been conditioned to install all infrastructure-related
improvements {including but not limited to curb, gutter and sidewalk) and any necessary
easements for these improvements concurrent with development. In addition, the

applicant will be required to pay traffic impact fees prior to issuance of building permit that
will go towards future road improvements.
C. Public Safety -The six-unit residential air-space condominium project is located within a
five-minute response time of Fire Station 1, will provide an automatic sprinkler system
within each dwelling unit, and is consistent with the Fire Code. The proposed structural
improvements are required to be designed in conformance with all seismic design
standards. In addition, the proposed project is consistent with all applicable fire safety
requirements.
D. Noise -The project consists of two, three-unit buildings. A noise study by Hans D. Giroux,
dated October 11, 2017, was provided. The windows of each unit will need to be closed to
meet a 45 dB(a) CNEL interior noise level. Therefore, mechanical ventilation is required. In
addition, the project is conditioned to comply with the construction requirements of the
aforementioned noise study.
E. Housing -The six-unit residential air-space condominium project is consistent with the
Housing Element of the General Plan and the lnclusionary Housing Ordinance as the project
has been conditioned to pay an affordable housing in-lieu fee on a per unit basis prior to
building permit issuance for four units, or six units if building permits for the six-unit project
have not been applied for within two years of demolishing the two existing single-family
homes on-site.
The project is consistent with the Citywide Facilities and Improvements Plan, the Local Facilities
Management Plan for Zone 1 and all city public facility policies and ordinances. The project
includes elements or has been conditioned to construct or provide funding to ensure that all
facilities and improvements regarding sewer collection and treatment; water; drainage;
circulation; fire; schools; parks and other recreational facilities; libraries; government
administrative facilities; and open space, related to the project will be installed to serve new
development prior to or concurrent with need. Specifically,
A. The project has been conditioned to provide proof from the Carlsbad Unified School District
that the project has satisfied its obligation for school facilities.
B. Park-in-lieu fees are required by Carlsbad Municipal Code Chapter 20.44, and will be collected
prior to issuance of building permit.
C. The Public Facility fee is required to be paid by Council Policy No. 17 and will be collected prior
to the issuance of building permit.
D. The Local Facilities Management fee for Zone 1 is required by Carlsbad Municipal Code
Section 21.90.050 and will be collected prior to issuance of building permit.
That the project is consistent with the city's Landscape Manual and Water Efficient Landscape
Ordinance (Carlsbad Municipal Code Chapter 18.50).
22. That the city planner has determined that the project belongs to a class of projects that the State
Secretary for Resources has found do not have a significant impact on the environment, and it is
therefore categorically exempt from the requirement for the preparation of environmental
documents pursuant to Section 15332, In-fill Development Project, of the state California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, of the state CEQA Guidelines.

provided in Article ___ _, Section ______ the city shall have the right, but not the
duty, to perform the necessary maintenance. If the city elects to perform such maintenance,
the city shall give written notice to the Association, with a copy thereof to the Owners in the
Project, setting forth with particularity the maintenance which the city finds to be required
and requesting the same be carried out by the Association within a period of thirty (30) days
from the giving of such notice. In the event that the Association fails to carry out such
maintenance of the Common Area .Lots and/or Association's Easements within the period
specified by the city's notice, the city shall be entitled to cause such work to be completed
and shall be entitled to reimbursement with respect thereto from the Owners as provided
herein.
D. Special Assessments Levied by the City: In the event the city has performed the necessary
maintenance to either Common Area Lots and/or Association's Easements, the city shall

constitute a charge on the land and shall be a continuing lien upon each Lot against which the
special assessment is levied. Each owner in the project hereby vests the city with the right
and power to levy such special assessment, to impose a lien upon their respective Lot and to
bring all legal actions and/or to pursue lien foreclosure procedures against any owner and
his/her respective Lot for purposes of collecting such special assessment in accordance with
the procedures set forth in Article ____ of this Declaration.
