CED CITY MANAGER RECOMMENDED ACTION: Introduce Ordinances No. CS-292 and CS-293 approving Zone Change 14-02 and Specific Plan Amendment SP 207(K), and adopt Resolutions No. 2016-021 and 2016-022 , certifying the Environmental Impact Report EIR 15-02, and adopting the Candidate Findings of Fact and a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program and approving a General Plan Amendment, Local Coastal Program Amendment, Tentative Tract Map, Planned Development Permit, Site Development Plan, Conditional Use Permit, Coastal Development Permit, and Hillside Development Permit as recommended for approval by the Planning Commission. ITEM EXPLANATION: The 3.6 acre project site is located at the northern terminus of The Crossings Drive, west of The Crossings at Carlsbad clubhouse, and east of the existing MarBrisa timeshare resort and Sheraton Hotel. The site is comprised of a pad elevated above the surrounding development that was created at the same time as The Crossings at Carlsbad golf course. On the western part of the pad is a de- commissioned 1.5 million gallon, 40-foot tall water tank which will be removed. The project includes both legislative and adjudicatory actions. The legislative actions are a General Plan Amendment, Zone Change, Local Coastal Program Amendment, and Specific Plan Amendment. The legislative actions designate the site for Visitor Serving/Commercial Tourist development, add the 3.6 acre property to the Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan as Planning Area 5A, a subset of PA 5, and establish development standards for the site. The adjudicatory actions regulate the physical development of the site with a 71-room hotel building and a 36 timeshare building. The two buildings flank a central passive open space area. The western most building is the hotel. It has a north-south orientation, is proposed with four habitable floors of hotel rooms within a 45 foot height, all rooms have a western view orientation, there is a central atrium lobby space, and it is topped by an outdoor roof veranda. The architecture is of the same Mediterranean style as the MarBrisa and Sheraton developments to the west. The timeshare building is located on the eastern side of the lot in an expanded "V" configuration also in a north-south orientation. This building is proposed with three habitable floors of timeshare units, the view orientation of the units are both to the west toward the central open area and to the east. The timeshare building includes a ground floor of tuck-under parking and the overall building height is 45 feet. The architecture is also of the same Mediterranean style as the MarBrisa and Sheraton developments to the west.

Written comments were received by the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians (SLR). City staff responded that SLR and City staff are continuing consultation regarding their comments. The cultural resources mitigation measures have been revised in consultation with SLR and the applicant and are incorporated into the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (Exhibit B of the City Council Resolution). The Planning Commission discussed traffic impacts to the intersection of Palomar Airport Road and The Crossings Drive as noted in the EIR. The recently adopted City of Carlsbad General Plan acknowledged that intersections with Palomar Airport Road from Interstate 5 east to College Boulevard would be operating at LOS E or LOS F at build-out. In-lieu of widening Palomar Airport Road as a measure to address the street segment LOS, the General Plan Mobility Element provides for the creation of citywide Transportation Demand Management (TDM) and Transportation System Management (TSM) techniques to better manage the citywide transportation system as a whole. Conditions have been added to the project resolution requiring the project applicant to enter into an agreement to pay fees toward the creation of those citywide programs, and to develop a project specific TDM prior to approval of a final map or issuance of any permits. No members of the public spoke at the public hearing regarding the proposal. The Planning Commission recommended approval of all of the actions by a vote of 5-0 (Commissioner Siekmann absent). FISCAL IMPACT: All required improvements needed to serve this project would be funded and/or constructed by the developer. The Facility Financing section of Zone 8 Local Facilities Management Plan (LFMP 8) provides a list of the public facilities necessary to serve development within Zone 8. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT: An Environmental Impact Report (EIR) was prepared for the project in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the CEQA Guidelines ,and the Environmental Protection Procedures (Title 19) of the Carlsbad Municipal Code. The EIR addresses the environmental impacts associated with all discretionary applications for the proposed project including ultimate buildout of the entire project. In April 2015 a Notice of Preparation was submitted to the Governor's Office of Planning and Research State Clearing House and Planning Unit. Comments were received regarding the content of the proposed Environmental Impact Report and were incorporated into the document. On July 27, 2015, the Draft EIR was published and the City notified the Public, Responsible and Trustee Agencies, as well as other interested parties and agencies via mailings and newspaper publications. The "Notice of Completion" commenced an initial 45 day public review and comment period expiring on September 8, 2015. Two comment letters were received. The "Notice of Completion" advised that the Draft EIR was available for review at four locations: the City of Carlsbad Planning Division; the City Clerk's Office; the Carlsbad Dove Library and the Georgina Cole Public Library. Complete copies were also available for purchase, with or without the Appendices, through the Planning Division. The Draft EIR was also posted in the city website. Westin Hotel and Timeshare January 26, 2016 Page 3 of 3 The analysis contained in the EIR concluded that all potentially significant impacts would be mitigated to below a level of significance. Direct impacts, also referred to as primary effects, are those caused by the project and that occur at the same time and place. In contrast, cumulative impacts refer to two or more individual impacts that, when considered together, are considerable or that compound or increase other environmental impacts. The cumulative impact of several projects is the change in the environment that results from the incremental impact of the project when added to other, closely related past, present, or reasonably foreseeable, probable future projects. The cumulative impacts all arise from the marginal contribution the proposed project will make, when combined with the impacts from existing and other future projects, to pre-existing conditions that fail to meet applicable standards currently. The analysis contained in the EIR also concluded that all potentially significant cumulative impacts would be mitigated to below a level of significance. The CEQA Findings of Fact and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program are attached to Planning Commission Resolution No. 7138 for the EIR. PUBLIC NOTIFICATION: Information regarding public notifications of this item such as mailings, public hearing notices posted in the newspaper and on the City website are available in the Office of the City Clerk.

Findings of Fact and Statement of Overriding Considerations The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (Public Resources Code §§21000, et seq.) and the CEQA Guidelines (14 California Code of Regulations §§15000, et seq.) promulgated thereunder require that the environmental impacts of a project be examined before a project is approved. In addition, once significant impacts have been identified, CEQA and the CEQA Guidelines require that certain Findings be made before project approval. It is the exclusive discretion of the decision maker certifying the environmental impact report (EIR) to determine the adequacy of the proposed Findings. Specifically, regarding Findings, Guidelines §15091 provides: (a) No public agency shall approve or carry out a project for which an EIR has been certified which identifies one or more significant environmental effects of the project unless the public agency makes one or more written findings for each of those significant effects, accompanied by a brief explanation of the rationale for each finding. The possible findings are: 1. Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into, the project which avoid or substantially lessen the significant environmental effect as identified in the Final EIR. 2. Such changes or alterations are within the responsibility and jurisdiction of another public agency and not the agency making the finding. Such changes have been adopted by such other agency or can and should be adopted by such other agency. 3. Specific economic, legal, social, technological, or other considerations, including considerations for the provision of employment opportunities for highly trained workers, make infeasible the mitigation measures or project alternatives identified in the Final EIR. (b) The findings required by subdivision (a) shall be supported by substantial evidence in the record. (c) The finding in subdivision (a)(2) shall not be made if the agency making the finding has concurrent jurisdiction with another agency to deal with identified feasible mitigation measures or alternatives. The finding in subdivision (a)(3) shall describe the specific reasons for rejecting identified mitigation measures and project alternatives. (d) When making the findings required in subdivision (a)(1), the agency shall also adopt a program for reporting on or monitoring the changes which it has either required in the project or made a condition of approval to avoid or -1- substantially lessen significant environmental effects. These measures must be fully enforceable through permit conditions, agreements, or other measures. (e) The public agency shall specify the location and custodian of the documents or other materials which constitute the record of the proceedings upon which its decision is based. (f) A statement made pursuant to §15093 does not substitute for the findings required by this section. The "changes or alterations" referred to in CEQA Guidelines §15091(a)(1) above, that are required in, or incorporated into, the project which mitigate or avoid the significant environmental effects of the project (a.k.a. "project design features"), may include a wide variety of measures or actions as set forth in CEQA Guidelines §15370, including: (a) Avoiding the impact altogether by not taking a certain action or parts of an action. (b) Minimizing impacts by limiting the degree ,pr magnitude of the action and its implementation. (c) Rectifying the impact by repairing, rehabilitating, or restoring the impacted environment. (d) Reducing or eliminating the impact over time by preservation and maintenance operations during the life of the action. (e) Compensating for the impact by replacing or providing substitute resources or environments. Should approval of the project nevertheless result in significant impacts, a Statement of Overriding Considerations (SOCs) must be prepared. The statement provides the lead agency's views on the ultimate balancing of the merits of approving a project despite its unavoidable environmental risks. Regarding the SOCs, CEQA Guidelines §15093 provides: (a) CEQA requires the decision-making agency to balance, as applicable, the economic, legal, social, technological, or other benefits, including region-wide or statewide environmental benefits, of a proposed project against its unavoidable environmental risks when determining whether to approve the project. If the specific economic, legal, social, technological, or other benefits, including region-wide or statewide environmental benefits, of a proposed project outweigh the unavoidable adverse environmental effects, the adverse environmental effects may be considered "acceptable." -2- (b) When the lead agency approves a project which will 'result in the occurrence of significant effects which are identified in the Final EIR but are not avoided or substantially lessened, the agency shall state in writing the specific reasons to support its action based on the Final EIR and/or other information in the record. The statement of overriding, considerations shall be supported by substantial evidence in the record. (c) If an agency makes a statement of overriding considerations, the statement should be included in the record of the project approval and should be mentioned in the notice of determination. This statement does not substitute for, and shall be in addition to, findings required pursuant to Section 15091. FolioWing its independent review, it is exclusively the discretion of the decision-maker certifying the Final EIR to make a final determination regarding the adequacy of the proposed Findings and SOCs. Having received, reviewed, and considered the Final EIR for the Westin Hotel and Timeshare Project, State Clearinghouse No. 2015041042 as well as all other information in the Record of Proceedings on this matter, the following Findings are hereby adopted by the City in its capacity as the CEQA Lead Agency, and the Final EIR is certified as being completed in compliance with CEQA. These Findings set forth the environmental basis for current and subsequent discretionary actions to be undertaken by the City and responsible agencies for the implementation of the project. The Findings presented herein are based on substantial evidence in the entire record. before he City and reflect the City's independent judgment and analysis as the project CEQA Lead Agency. References to the Draft EIR and Final EIR set forth in these Findings are for ease of reference and are not intended to provide an exhaustive list of the evidence relied upon for the Findings. B.

PROJECT SUMMARY A. Project Location The project site is located on a 3.69-acre site located north of Palomar Airport Road, south of Cannon Road, and east of the LEGOLAND Resort within the City of Carlsbad (City). Regional access to the project site is provided by Interstate 5, located approximately one mile to the west of the project site. The Agua Hedionda Lagoon is located approximately three-quarters of a mile north of the project site and McClellan—Palomar Airport is located approximately one mile east of the project site. -4- ' B. Project Description The project includes a General Plan Amendment, Zone Change, and Local Coastal Program Amendment to change the property land use category of Unplanned Area (UA), Planned Industrial (PI), and Office (0) to Travel/Recreation Commercial (TR) and to change the zoning from Exclusive Agriculture (EA), Planned Industrial (PI), and Office (0) to Commercial Tourist with a Qualified Overlay (C-T-Q). Development of the project site would include removal of an existing municipal 1,500,000-gallon water tank, grading of the property resulting in an export of approximately 14,610 cubic yards, and the subsequent development of a four-story, 81,200-square-foot 71-room hotel building, and a four-story, 62,680-square-foot 36-unit timeshare building including an underground garage. C. Discretionary Actions The following discretionary actions are being considered by the City Council: • General Plan Amendment (GPA 14-03) • Zone Change (ZC 14-02) • Local Coastal Program Amendment (LCPA 14-03) • Tentative Tract Map (CT 14-08) • Non-Residential Planned Unit Development (PUD 15-01) • Conditional Use Permit (CUP 15-03) • Site Development Plan (SDP 14-11) • Coastal Development Permit (CDP 14-29) • Hillside Development Permit (HDP 14-06) • Specific Plan Amendment (SP 207(K)) In addition, the City may use the Final EIR to approve other discretionary actions for which the environmental impacts have been analyzed therein. The Final EIR may also be used by responsible and trustee agencies in connection with project-related approvals/conditions including, without limitation, conformance to the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NDPES) Construction General Permit (State Water Resources Control Board/Regional Water Quality Control Board [SVVRCB/RWQCBD and Municipal Storm Water Permit (RWQCB). -5- D. Statement of Objectives As described in Section 3.1 of the Final EIR, the following objectives are identified for the proposed project: • Develop the City-owned property with a use that would generate long-term revenue for the City by means of leasehold rent, transient occupancy tax (TOT), sales tax, and property tax revenues. • Support increased tourism and provide additional leisure and recreational options to visitors of the City. • Develop a four-star hotel to address an underserved market. • Develop a project that incorporates a "life style brand" hotel that will benefit The Crossings Golf Course by generating additional green fees. • Provide additional tourist accommodations that integrate with the existing Sheraton and MarBrisa resorts adjacent to the project site. • Develop a project that is architecturally compatible with the surrounding properties. III. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW AND PUBLIC PARTICIPATION A NOP, prepared in compliance with Section 15082 of the CEQA Guidelines, was distributed for the project from April 13, 2015 to May 12, 2015. The NOP, associated comments, and responses are included in the FEIR as Appendix A. The Draft EIR for the proposed project was then prepared and circulated for review and comment by the public, agencies, and organizations for a public review period that began on July 29, 2015 and concluded on September 11, 2015. A Notice of Completion of the Draft EIR was sent to the State Clearinghouse and the Draft EIR was circulated to state agencies for review through the State Clearinghouse, Office of Planning and Research (SCE[ No. 2015041042). A Notice of Availability of the Draft EIR was mailed to organizations and parties expressing interest in the project, filed with the City Clerk, and published in the San Diego Daily Transcript. Public comments received on the Draft EIR and responses to those comments have been incorporated into the Final EIR as Appendix L. IV. GENERAL FINDINGS The City hereby finds as follows: • The City is the "Lead Agency" for the proposed project evaluated in the Final EIR. -6- • The Draft EIR and Final MR were prepared in compliance with CEQA and the CEQA Guidelines. • The City has independently reviewed and analyzed the Draft EIR and Final EIR, and these documents reflect the independent judgment of the City Council and the City. • The City has adopted a MMRP for the proposed project. That MMRP is included as Chapter 10 of the Final EIR and is considered part of the Record of Proceedings for the proposed project. • In determining whether the proposed project has a significant impact on the environment and in adopting these Findings pursuant to §21081 of CEQA, the City has based its decision on substantial evidence and complied with CEQA §§21081.5 and 21082.2 and CEQA Guidelines 15091(b). • Pursuant to Senate Bill 18, the City provided consultation opportunity with Native American tribes. Meetings with the City, applicant, and representatives of the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians occurred on several occasions both Prior to and after public review of the Draft EIR. The proposed mitigation plan and alternative foundation design to minimize potential cultural resource impacts was refined with input from tribal representatives. • The City reviewed the comments received on the Draft EIR and Final EIR and the responses thereto and has determined that neither the comments received nor the responses to such comments or associated Final EIR revisions add significant new information regarding environmental impacts to the Draft EIR or Final EIR. The changes to the Final EIR would not result in any new significant environmental impact or increase the severity of an environmental impact. • The City has based its actions on full appraisal of all viewpoints, including all comments received up to the date of adoption of these Findings concerning the environmental impacts identified and analyzed in the Final EIR. V. SUMMARY OF IMPACTS In identifying the following impacts that are less than significant without mitigation, the City has considered project design features, as well as applicable plans, programs, regulations, and policies. The Final EIR concludes that the proposed project will have no significant impacts and require no mitigation measures with respect to the following issues: • Aesthetics • Agriculture and Forestry Resources -7- • Air Quality • Biological Resources (Sensitive Habitats, Jurisdictional Wetlands and Waters, Wildlife Corridors, Local Ordinances) • Cultural and Paleontological Resources (Historic Resources only) • Geology and Soils • Greenhouse Gas • Hazardous Materials • Hydrology and Water Quality • Land Use (Physically Divide an Established Community, Conflicts with Applicable Plans and Zoning, and Local Coastal Program) • Mineral Resources • Noise • Population and Housing • Public Services • Transportation and Circulation • Utilities VI. FINDINGS REGARDING SIGNIFICANT IMPACTS In making each of the Findings herein, the City has considered the project design features and plans, programs, and policies identified throughout the Final EIR. The project design features described throughout the Final EIR are part of the project that the City has considered, and the project may only be constructed in accordance with the project design features regardless of whether they are explicitly made conditions of the project permits. The plans, programs, and policies discussed in the Final EIR are existing regulatory plans and programs, which the project is subject to regardless of whether they are explicitly made conditions of the project permits. The CEQA Guidelines state that an agency's Findings must be "accompanied by a brief explanation of the rationale for each Finding" (14 California Code of Regulations §15091(a)). This requirement applies to the Findings relating to mitigation of significant impacts, mitigation measures under the jurisdiction of another agency, and infeasibility of mitigation measures and alternatives required under Public Resource Code §21081(a) and -8- 14 California Code of Regulations §15091(a), (c). Every citation to the Final EIR or other documents identified in these Findings is hereby incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein. A. Findings Regarding Significant Impacts That Can be Mitigated to Below a Level of Significance (CEQA '§21081(a)(1) and CEQA Guidelines §15091(a)(1)) The City, having reviewed and considered the information contained in the Final EIR, and the Record of Proceedings pursuant to CEQA §21081(a)(1) and CEQA Guidelines §15091(a)(1), adopts the following Findings regarding the significant effects of the proposed project, as follows: (1) Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into, the project which would mitigate avoid or substantially lessen the significant environmental effects as identified in the Final EIR as described below: Biological Resources Sensitive Wildlife Species Potentially Significant Effect Potentially significant impacts to sensitive wildlife could result during project grading and construction. Specifically, construction during the,,breeding season could adversely impact nesting or migratory birds, including raptors that may occupy the on-site eucalyptus trees. Additionally, construction during the breeding season of the coastal California gnatcatcher would generate noise that could disrupt nesting or breeding activities in the off-site coastal sage scrub habitat. Facts in Support of Finding The potentially significant impacts to sensitive wildlife shall be mitigated to below a level of significance with implementation of the mitigation measures identified as BIO-1 and BIO- 2 in Section 4.4.3.2 of the Final EIR. BIO-1 requires: either construction shall occur outside the bird nesting and breeding season (February 15 to September 15) or pre-construction surveys shall be conducted to determine the absence or presence of nests and, if nests are present, implementation of nest avoidance measures. Nest avoidance measures consist of providing a fenced protective buffer of at least 500 feet from active nests of listed species, and 300 feet from other sensitive bird species. All construction activity shall be prohibited within the protective buffer. -9- BIO-2 requires: either construction shall occur outside the coastal California gnatcatcher breeding season (between March 15 and August 15), or U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) protocol pre-construction nest surveys shall be conducted and nest avoidance measures shall be implemented if nests are found. For coastal California gnatcatcher avoidance measures, a qualified acoustician must complete a study showing that noise generated by construction activities will not exceed 60 A-weighted decibels (dB(A)) hourly average at the edge of occupied habitat prior to construction, and take of active nests shall be prohibited. Rationale and Conclusion Impacts to raptors, migratory, nesting birds, or coastal California gnatcatcher would be mitigated through implementation of BIO-1 and BIO-2, which require grading and construction to occur outside the bird breeding season. If grading must occur during the breeding/nesting season, pre-construction surveys would be required to determine absence or presence. If present, appropriate buffers would be implemented to avoid direct impacts. Measure BIO-2 would further require noise analysis and monitoring to ensure that noise levels do not exceed 60 dB(A) hourly equivalent sound level (Leg) within 500 feet of habitat occupied by the coastal California gnatcatcher. A fenced protective buffer and supervision by a qualified biologist would also be required. Project impacts to sensitive wildlife would be mitigated to below a level of significance. Implementation of these mitigation measures is assured through their incorporation into the project's MMRP. Reference: Final EIR Section 4.4.3. Cultural Resources Archaeological Resources Potentially Significant Effect The project site contains portions of a significant archaeological site, CA-SDI-8797 Locus C, which was previously capped in conjunction with a prior project and includes a subsurface archaeological deposit and human burial(s). Development of the project site would result in some disturbance to CA-SDI-8797 Locus C; however, impacts to known human burials would be avoided. Disturbance of CA-SDI-8797 Locus C would be considered a significant impact. In addition, project grading could result in significant impacts to currently unknown and buried prehistoric/archaeological resources on-site. Facts in Support of Finding The project's potentially significant impacts to the capped portion of CA-SDI-8797 Locus C would be avoided to the maximum extent practicable through the use of an alternative foundation design that would allow the structure in the location of CA-SDI-8797 Locus C to essentially float over the ground surface by transferring the weight of the structure deep -10- into the earth by installing concrete piles, or caissons. The structure would require 47 caissons to support the hotel foundation, and each caisson would require disturbance of an approximately 1 meter x 1 meter section of earth. Additionally, installation of the elevator pit and basement area would require penetration of the capped portion of CA-SDI-8797 Locus C, which would be a potentially significant impact. Implementation of the data recovery program as detailed in ARC-1 would ensure that any cultural material present in the area of SDI-8797 Locus C would be recovered and reburied within the project site to retain the cultural value of the resource on-site. The data recovery program would include hand excavation of 100 percent of the material extracted from the 1 meter x 1 meter test units for each caisson; data recovery of the basement and elevator pit at a minimum of 15 percent of the excavated material, up to 100 percent of the excavated material depending on the extent of cultural materials encountered during data recovery for caissons; and additional data recovery within the fenced area around the water tank that has never been subject to subsurface archaeological testing. Implementation of ARC-1 would ensure that the research potential of the site has been exhausted and that any cultural material encountered during data recovery would be identified and reburied within the on-site open space easement to preserve cultural material within the site. The project's potentially significant impacts to currently unknown and buried prehistoric/archaeological resources on-site would be mitigated through implementation of mitigation measure ARC-2. Specifically, ARC-2 requires the preparation of a monitoring plan and the presence of the Archaeological Monitor and Native American Monitor from the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians during grading/excavation/ trenching activities that could result in impacts to archaeological resources as identified in the monitoring plan. Prior to any construction permits, the City shall, verify that the requirements for archaeological monitoring and Native American monitoring have been noted on the appropriate construction plans. The Qualified Archaeologist and Native American Monitor shall attend any grading/excavation-related preconstruction meetings to make comments and/or suggestions concerning the archaeological monitoring program. Included in this mitigation measure is the requirement that the Archaeological Monitor shall document field activity and if a discovery is made, the monitors shall divert construction activities from the area of discovery. After following the identified protocol to determine significance, either a data recovery program shall be implemented for significant resources or less than significant artifacts shall be collected, curated, and documented in the Final Monitoring Report. If human remains are discovered, work shall stop in that area, and the procedures as set forth in the California Public Resources Code (Sec. 5097.98) and State Health and Safety Code (Sec. 7050.5) shall be followed. Additional details of this mitigation measure are included in Section 4.4.4.3 of the Final EIR. Mitigation measure ARC-3 would provide protection in perpetuity through an open space easement for the known archaeological resources on-site. While the project would impact a -11- portion of CA-SDI-8797 Locus C through installation of caissons and a basement and elevator pit, the majority of this site would remain undisturbed. Measure ARC-3 would ensure that no further disturbance to the archaeological site would occur after project construction. Rationale and Conclusion The actions making up mitigation measure ARC-1 identified in Section 4.4.4.3 of the Final EIR assure the recovery and recording of important prehistoric/archaeological information, which may otherwise be lost during construction of the proposed project. The requirements of ARC-2 ensure that an Archaeological Monitor and Native American Monitor from the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians would be present for all grading activities and assure that grading shall be halted or diverted should any discovery be made. In the event that a discovery of prehistoric or archaeological resources occurs during grading for the proposed project, the determination of significance shall be made and the mitigation measure outlined in the Final EIR shall be implemented. ARC-3 would provide protection in perpetuity for the known archaeological resources on-site (CA-SDI-8797 Locus C). These mitigation measures would reduce potentially significant impacts to archaeological. resources to a less than significant level. Implementation of these mitigation measures are assured through their incorporation into the project's MMRP. Reference: Final EIR Section 4.4.4 Paleontological Resources Potentially Significant Effect The project site is underlain by Santiago Formation and Lindavista Formation, which have high and moderate paleontological resource sensitivity, respectively. Project grading would involve cut and removal of approximately 14,610 cubic yards of material; as a result, there is a potential for grading to destroy buried fossil remains, resulting in a significant impact to paleontological resources. Facts in Support of Finding The project's potentially significant impacts to paleontological resources will be mitigated to below a level of significance with implementation of the mitigation measure identified in Section 4.4.6.3 of the Final EIR. Implementation of the mitigation measure PAL-1 shall require paleontological monitoring requirements to be noted on the appropriate construction plans, a monitoring plan be prepared prior to the start of construction to identify- areas that shall be monitored, and presence of a paleontological monitor on-site during grading. In the event of a discovery, grading activities in the area of discovery are required to stop. The resource is required to be studied so that a determination of significance can be made. If the resource is significant, appropriate collection and curation is required. Upon completion of construction, a Draft Monitoring Report shall be prepared -12- that describes the results, analysis, and conclusions of all phases of the Paleontological Monitoring Program. Additional details of this measure are found in Section 4.4.6.3 of the Final EIR. Rationale and Conclusion These individual actions making up mitigation Measure PAL-1 assure the recording and recovery of important paleontological information,' which may otherwise be lost during construction of the proposed project. The requirement for a monitor to be present for all construction activities, along with the specified processes, assures that grading will be halted or diverted should any discovery be made. Implementation of the mitigation measure assures that significance testing occurs immediately and that important discoveries are reported and/or collected. Because the discovery of any paleontological resources will not occur until the grading for project construction is underway, it is not feasible to pursue preservation in place as a mitigation measure in the event of the discovery of significant resources. This mitigation measure will reduce potentially significant impacts to paleontological resources to less than significant. Implementation of this mitigation measure is assured through its incorporation into the project's MMRP. Reference: Final EIR Section 4.4.6 Land Use Multiple Habitat Conservation Program/Habitat Management Plan Consistency Potentially Significant Effect While the project would not result in any direct impacts to the adjacent Habitat Management Plan (HMP) Preserve, the project would have the potential to generate noise during construction that could indirectly impact the coastal California gnatcatcher inside the adjacent hardline preserve. This would result in a significant impact related to the City's Multiple Habitat Conservation Program (MHCP)/HMF'. Facts in Support of Finding Implementation of mitigation measure B10-2 would reduce potentially significant impacts to the coastal California gnatcatcher inside the adjacent HMP hardline preserve to below a level of significance. As stated above,- B10-2 requires construction to occur outside the coastal California gnatcatcher breeding season (between March 15 and August 15) or USFWS protocol pre-construction nest surveys and nest avoidance measures. For coastal California gnatcatcher avoidance measures, a Qualified Acoustician must complete a study showing that noise generated by construction activities will not exceed 60 dB(A) hourly average at the edge of occupied habitat prior to construction and prohibit take of active nests. These measures will ensure that no indirect impacts to coastal California gnatcatcher occur in the adjacent HMP preserve. -13- Rationale and Conclusion Implementation of mitigation measure BIO-2 requires noise analysis and monitoring to ensure that noise levels do not exceed 60 dB(A) hourly Leg within 500 feet of habitat occupied by the coastal California gnatcatcher. A fenced protective buffer and supervision by a Qualified Biologist would also be required. Implementation of this mitigation measure is assured through its incorporation into the project's MMRP. Reference: Final EIR Section 4.8.6 B. Findings Regarding Mitigation Measures Which are the Responsibility of Another Agency (CEQA §21081(a)(2)) and CEQA Guidelines §15091(a)(2)) The City, having reviewed and considered the information contained in the Final EIR, finds pursuant to CEQA §21081(a)(2) and CEQA Guidelines §15091(a)(2) that there are no changes or alterations which could reduce significant impacts that are within the responsibility and jurisdiction of another public agency. C. Findings Regarding Infeasible Mitigation Measures or Alternatives (CEQA §21081(a)(3) and CEQA Guidelines §15091(a)(3)) The City, having reviewed and considered the information contained in the Final EIR and the Record of Proceedings, and pursuant to Public Resource Code §21081(a)(3) and State CEQA Guidelines §15091(a)(3), finds that specific economic, legal, social, technological, or other considerations, including considerations of the provision of employment opportunities for highly trained workers, make infeasible alternatives identified in the Final EIR (SCH No. 2015041042). D. Findings Regarding Alternatives Considered and Rejected Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines §15126.6, the range. of potential alternative to the proposed project shall include those that could feasibly accomplish most the basic objectives of the project and could avoid or substantially lessen one or more of the significant effects. An EIR should briefly describe the rationale for selecting the alternatives to be discussed. The EIR should also identify any alternatives that were considered by the lead agency, but were rejected as infeasible during the scoping process and briefly explain the reasons underlying the lead agency's determination. Additional information explaining the choice of alternative may be included in the administrative record. Among the factors that may be used to eliminate alternatives from detailed consideration in an EIR are (i) failure to meet most of the basic project objectives, (ii) infeasibility, or (iii) inability to avoid significant environmental impacts. Alternatives considered but rejected include the Alternate Location Alternative and the No Project/Plan and Zone Consistent Alternative. The Alternate Location Alternative would -14- develop the project in an alternate location in proximity to the existing Sheraton and MarBrisa Resorts and nearby tourist attractions including LEGOLAND Resort. The No Project/Plan and Zone Consistent Alternative would develop an industrial/office building on the project site, consistent with the existing Plan and Zone, and would not require a General Plan Amendment, Specific Plan Amendment, or Rezone. The Alternate Location Alternative was dismissed because no other site(s) under the City's ownership in the vicinity of the existing Sheraton and MarBrisa Resorts were identified that could provide a development that would meet the majority of the project objectives. Even if property could be acquired by the City that would be in a suitable location, the need to purchase additional property would negate the project objective of developing the existing City-owned property to provide revenue for the City. The No Project/Plan and Zone Consistent Alternative was dismissed because it would not meet the main project objectives of providing tourist opportunities through development of a hotel. E. Findings Regarding Alternatives Considered in EIR The Final EIR examined three alternatives: No Project/No Development Alternative, No Project/Alternative Consistent with Carlsbad Municipal Golf Course EIR, and Reduced Development Alternative. These project alternatives are summarized below, along with the findings relevant to each alternative. Social Infeasibility/Other Considerations Under CEQA, "[i]t is the policy of the state that public agencies should not approve projects as proposed if there are feasible alternatives or feasible mitigation measures available which would substantially lessen the significant environmental effects of such projects . . . The Legislature further finds and declares that in the event specific economic, social, or other conditions make infeasible such project alternatives or such mitigation measures, individual projects may be approved in spite of one or more significant effects thereof." (Public Resources Code §21002; emphasis added.) Moreover, CEQA defines "feasible" as "capable of being accomplished in a successful manner within a reasonable period of time, taking into account, economic, social, legal, and technological factors." (CEQA Guidelines § 15364; emphasis added.) Finding for All Alternatives The City, having reviewed and considered the information contained in the Final EIR and the Record of Proceedings, and pursuant to Public Resource Code §21081(a)(3) and CEQA Guidelines §15091(a)(3), hereby finds that specific economic, legal, social, technological, or other considerations, including considerations of the provision of employment opportunities for highly trained workers, make infeasible the project alternatives identified in the Final EIR as described below. More, specifically, based upon the administrative record for the -15- project, the City makes the following findings concerning the alternatives to the proposed project: No Project/ No Development Alternative Summary Description of Alternative The No Project /No Development Alternative addresses the situation that would occur if the proposed project did not go forward and the project site remained in its existing condition. Rationale for Selecting this Alternative for Analysis This alternative was selected for analysis, because it allows decision makers to compare the impacts of approving the project with the impacts of not approving the project and is required to be analyzed and considered pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15126.6(e)(3)(B). Potentially Significant Effects and Grounds for Infeasibility Under this alternative, the project site would remain in its current undeveloped condition. Continued use of the project site in its existing condition would result in no significant impacts. However, this alternative would not meet the basic project objectives or provide any fiscal benefit to the City through development of the City-owned property. Therefore, the grounds for infeasibility are that it does not meet basic project objectives and it conflicts with the City's goals for developing the site to provide a fiscal benefit to the City. Facts in Support of Finding While adoption of the No Project/No Development/) Alternative would avoid the proposed project's significant impacts, the majority of the project objectives would not be attained. Specifically, it would not generate long-term revenue for the City or provide a hotel to support tourism. Since this alternative would not meet most of the project objectives, it is considered infeasible. Reference: Final EIR Section 9.2 No Project/Alternative Consistent With Carlsbad Municipal Golf Course EIR Summary Description of Alternative The No Project/Alternative Consistent with Carlsbad Municipal Golf Course EIR would develop the site with a 21,000-square-foot conference center on the 2.24-acre City-owned property. The Carlsbad Municipal Water District water tank would remain as is and not be removed. This alternative would reduce the overall footprint of the development. Thus, this alternative would incrementally reduce impacts compared to the project, but would not -16- avoid the biological, cultural, and paleontological resources and land use impacts of the project. Rationale for Selecting this Alternative for Analysis This alternative was selected for analysis because it represents a development scenario consistent with what was analyzed in the environmental document prepared for development of the Carlsbad Municipal Golf Course. As the No Project/No Development Alternative already analyzed a no development scenario, this alternative allows decision makers to compare the impacts of approving a project that was originally envisioned as part of the Carlsbad Municipal Golf Course project. Potentially Significant Effects and Ground for Infeasibility Due to its reduced footprint, this alternative would result in a reduction in the significance of impacts to the known archaeological site. All other potentially significant impacts of the project would be the same for this alternative including biological resources, paleontological resources, and land use. There would be potentially significant impacts to unknown and buried human remains that would require mitigation; however, this alternative could likely reduce or avoid potentially significant impacts to CA-SDI-8797 Locus C. However, this alterative would not meet the basic objective of providing a hotel to serve the tourist population. Facts in Support of Finding The No Project/Alternative Consistent with Carlsbad Municipal Golf Course EIR would not meet the project objectives because it would not provide a hotel to serve the tourist population. Additionally, while a conference center at the site would generate some revenue, there would be no transient occupancy tax revenue generated. Accordingly, as the this alternative would not fully meet most of the project objectives, it is considered infeasible. Reference: Final EIR Section 9.3 Reduced Development Alternative Summary Description of Alternative The Reduced Development Alternative would construct the proposed timeshare structures and would reduce the footprint of the hotel by one-half by reducing the number of units. By reducing the footprint of the hotel, it is anticipated that the alternative could significantly avoid impacts to the archaeological site. Grading for the alternative would be similar to the project because a majority of grading is proposed to allow access to the site from The Crossings Drive into the subterranean parking garage for the timeshare. -17- Rationale for Selecting this Alternative for Analysis This alternative was selected for analysis to provide an alternative that would meet most of the basic project objectives while reducing the potentially significant impacts to archaeological resources. This alternative would provide the decision makers an opportunity to consider a reduced project that could potentially avoid and preserve in place the majority of the archaeological site. Potentially Significant Effects and Ground for Infeasibility Due to its substantially reduced footprint of the hotel, this alternative would result in a reduction in the severity of impacts to cultural resources as compared to the project. Specifically, the majority of the archaeological site could be preserved in place and not disturbed. All other potentially significant impacts of the project would be the same for this alternative, including: biological resources, paleontological resources, and land use. This alternative would still generate revenue for the City, including transient occupancy tax, although revenues would be reduced due to the reduced size of the hotel. This alternative would also support tourism and would potentially benefit The Crossings Golf Course by generating additional green fees; however, it could potentially not provide a top tier hotel to address an underserved market. Reduction of the number of hotel room by 50% would violate the franchise agreement with the brand, that is also associated with the adjacent existing hotel, and would eliminate the possibility of integrating the project with the adjacent existing hotel and hotel facilities. Therefore, the grounds for infeasibility of this alternative are that it does not fully meet the main project objectives. Facts in Support of Finding The Reduced Development Alternative would only partially meet Objective 1 because it would generate revenue for the City, but the development would not maximize the use of the City-owned property and would generate reduced revenue compared to the project. The alternative would support increased tourism and additional leisure opportunities to visitors of the City and would meet Objective 2, although to a lesser extent than the project. The alternative would not meet Objectives 3 or 4 because it would not develop a hotel. The alternative could meet Objectives 5 and 6 because the alternative could be designed to integrate with adjacent resorts in an architecturally compatible fashion. In summary, this alternative was proper to study because it met .some of the project objectives; however, it would only fully meet two objectives (5 and 6) and partially meet two objectives that are most important to the City, while not meeting two key project objectives related to developing a hotel. Accordingly, as this alternative would not fully meet most of the project objectives, it is considered infeasible. Reference: Final EIR Section 9.4 4 -18- VII. STATEMENT OF OVERRIDING CONSIDERATIONS Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15093, CEQA requires the decision-making agency to balance, as applicable, the economic, legal, social, technological, or other benefits, including region-wide or statewide environmental benefits, of a proposed project against its unavoidable environmental risks when determining whether to approve the project. All significant impacts of the project would be mitigated to below a level of significance; therefore a statement of overriding considerations pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15093 is not required. VIII. CONCLUSION For the foregoing reasons, the City concludes that all of the significant impacts of the proposed project would be mitigated to below a level of significance. Changes to the project have been incorporated to avoid and substantially lessen potential impacts to cultural resources. . Therefore, the City has adopted these Findings. -19- £kh th Westin Hotel and Timeshare Project Carlsbad, California SCH #2015041042 Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), Section 21081.6, requires that a mitigation monitoring and reporting program (MMRP) be adopted upon certification of an environmental impact report (EIR) to ensure that the mitigation measures are implemented. The MMRP specifies what the mitigation is, the entity responsible for monitoring the program, and when in the process it should be accomplished. The proposed Westin Hotel and Timeshare project includes a General Plan Amendment, Zone Change and Local Coastal Program Amendment to change the property land use category to Visitor Commercial (VC) and the zoning to Commercial Tourist with a Qualified Overlay (C-T-Q). Development of the project would include removal of an existing municipal 1,500,000-gallon water tank, grading, and the subsequent development of a four-story, 81,200-square-foot 71-room hotel building, and a four-story, 62,680-square- foot 36-unit timeshare building with an underground garage. The hotel structure would be constructed using an alternative foundation system knOwn as Cast-In-Drilled Hole (CIDH) Pile foundation in order to minimize potential impacts to cultural resources. The project site is located on two parcels totaling 3.14 acres in addition to 0.55 acre of adjacent off-site areas. The Final EIR focuses on issues determined to be potentially significant by the City including aesthetics; air quality; biological resources; cultural and paleontological resources; greenhouse gas emissions; hazardous materials, airport safety, and wildfire; hydrology and water quality; land use; noise; public services; transportation and circulation; and utilities and service systems. Agricultural resources, geology and soils, mineral resources, and population and housing were addressed in lesser detail in Chapter 8, Effects Found Not to be Significant. After analysis, potentially significant impacts requiring mitigation were identified for land use (Multiple Habitat Conservation Plan/Habitat Management Plan consistency), biological resources, cultural resources, and paleontological resources. The environmental analysis concluded that the potentially significant impacts associated with land use (Multiple Habitat Conservation Plan/Habitat Management Plan consistency), biological resources, cultural resources, and paleontological resources could be avoided or reduced through implementation of recommended mitigation measures. The following table summarized the potentially significant project impacts and lists the associated mitigation measures and monitoring efforts necessary to ensure measures are properly implemented. All mitigation measures identified in the Final EIR are recommended as conditions of project approval and are stated herein in language appropriate for such conditions. Page 1 If DOCS 121163-000006/2419403.4 Potential Significant Impact Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program Mitigation Measure Timeframe of Mitigation Monitoring, Enforcement, and Reporting Responsibility BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES Wildlife Species. Project grading and construction would result in potentially significant direct impacts to wildlife species including raptors and migratory or nesting birds located within the project footprint. Coastal California gnatcatcher, raptors and migratory and nesting birds were determined to have the potential to occur in the project area due to the existence of suitable habitat. Indirect impacts from construction noise to coastal California gnatcatcher in the adjacent HMP hardline preserve and potentially nesting raptors on the project site would be significant. B10-1: Pre-construction Surveys. Prior to the issuance of a Notice to Proceed for a subdivision, or any construction permits, such as demolition, grading, or building, or beginning any construction-related activity, the City shall verify that the following project requirements regarding nesting and migratory birds, including raptors, are shown on the construction plans: To avoid any direct impacts to nesting or migratory birds, including raptors, removal of habitat that has potential to support active nests should occur outside of the breeding season for these species (February 15 to September 15). If removal of habitat must occur during the breeding season, a qualified biologist shall conduct a pre-construction survey to determine the presence or absence of nesting birds within the proposed area within three calendar days prior to the start of construction activities, including the removal of vegetation. If nests of migratory birds or raptors are located, they shall be fenced with a protective buffer of at least 500 feet from active nests of listed species, and 300 feet from other sensitive bird species. All construction activity shall be prohibited within the protective buffer, B10-2: Coastal California Gnatcatcher Surveys. Prior to the issuance of a Notice to Proceed for a subdivision, or any construction permits, such as demolition, grading, or building, or beginning any construction-related activity, the City shall verify that the following project requirements regarding coastal California gnatcatcher are shown on the construction plans: No clearing, grubbing, grading, or other construction activities shall occur between March 15 and August 15, the breeding season of coastal California gnatcatcher, unless the following requirements have been met: A biologist possessing a valid Endangered Species Act Section 10(a )(1)(A) Recovery Permit shall conduct coastal California gnatcatcher surveys within 500 feet of potential breeding habitat in the HMP Preserve that would be subject to construction noise levels exceeding 60 decibels [dB(A)] hourly average. Surveys shall be conducted in accordance with the protocol survey guidelines established by the USFWS (1997). A total of three surveys shall be conducted no less than one week apart, with the last of these surveys occurring no more than three days prior to construction. If coastal California gnatcatchers are present, then the following conditions must be met: a. An analysis showing that noise generated by construction activities would not exceed 60 dB(A) hourly average within 500 feet of occupied habitat shall be completed by a qualified acoustician and approved by the City Manager or designated appointee. Prior to the commencement of construction activities between March 15 and August 15, areas restricted from such activities shall be fenced with a protective buffer under the supervision of a qualified biologist; or b. Between March 15 and August 15, no construction activities shall occur within any portion of the site where construction activities would result in noise levels exceeding 60 dB(A) hourly average within 500 feet of occupied coastal California gnatcatcher habitat. Construction noise shall be monitored to maintain a threshold at or below 60 dB(A) hourly average sound level within 500 feet of occupied coastal California gnatcatcher breeding habitat. If noise levels supersede the threshold, the construction array shall be changed or noise attenuation measures shall be implemented to ensure that noise levels do not exceed the threshold. ermi g Prior to any construction permits, including but not limited to, the first Grading Permit, Demolition Plans/ and Buildin Pts Plans/ Permits, but prior to the first pre- construction meeting.

Prior to the issuance of any construction permits, including but not limited to, the first Grading Permit or Demolition Plans/Permits, the applicant shall provide a written and signed letter to the City Planner stating that a Qualified Archaeologist and Luisefio Native American Monitor have been retained to implement the monitoring program and as described in the pre-excavation agreement. 3. Prior to the start of any ground disturbing activities, a written "Controlled Grade" procedure to be approved by the City, shall be prepared in consultation with the Luiserio Native American Monitor , Qualified Archaeologist, applicant, and San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians as applicable, for any ground disturbing work with machinery occurring in and around CA-SDI-8797 Locus C, and potential other areas in the general proximity of known cultural deposit locations. The Controlled Grade would have the earth disturbing equipment operate at a deliberate pace, in a specialized manner and work in controlled increments. In addition, the equipment would need to meet specific requirements regarding weight, attachments and type of wheels. 4. The Qualified Archaeologist shall maintain ongoing collaborative consultation with the Luisefio Native American Monitor during all ground disturbing activities. The requirement for the monitoring program shall be noted on all applicable construction documents, including demolition plans, grading plans, etc. The applicant shall notify the City of Carlsbad in writing of the start and end of all ground disturbing activities. The Qualified Archaeologist and Luisa() Native American Monitor shall be present on-site full-time during ground disturbing activities, including but not limited to, grubbing, excavation, grading and/or other ground altering activities, including the placement of imported fill materials or fill used from other areas of the project site, to identify any evidence of potential archaeological or tribal cultural resources. The presence of the Qualified Archaeologist and the Luiseno Native American monitor are a mandatory requirement for all grading activity. S. Prior to the initiation of grading, the contractor shall organize a pre-construction meeting of all personnel scheduled to work on the grading and construction phases of the project . The Qualified Archaeologist and Luiserio Native American Monitor shall present the monitoring program to the general Contractor and associated sub-contractors in attendance. A written summary of the monitoring program shall be distributed to all personnel hired and scheduled to work on the grading and construction phases of the project.. 6. The Qualified Archaeologist or the Luisefio Native American Monitor may halt ground disturbing activities if archaeological artifact deposits and/or Tribal Cultural Resources are discovered. Ground disturbing activities shall be directed away from these deposits to allow a determination of potential importance. Isolates and clearly non-significant deposits will be minimally documented in the field. Before grading proceeds Tribal Cultural Resources shall be given to the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians so that they may be repatriated at the site on a later date. If a determination is made that the unearthed artifact deposits or Tribal Cultural Resources are considered potentially significant, the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians shall be notified and consulted with in regards to the respectful and dignified treatment of those resources. The avoidance and protection of the significant Tribal Cultural Resource and/or unique archaeological resource is the preferable Page 3 DOCS 121163-000006/2419403.4 Potential Significant Impact Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program Mitigation Measure Timefra me of Mitigation Monitoring, Enforcement, and Reporting Responsibility mitigation , however, the resource may be more appropriately treated according to an approved Cultural Resource Recovery Plan. For significant artifact deposits or Tribal Cultural Resources that are to be treated pursuant to a recovery plan, an adequate artifact sample to address research avenues previously identified for sites in the area will be collected using professional archaeological collection methods. If the Qualified Archaeologist collects such resources, the Luisa° Native American Monitor must be present during any testing of those resources. Moreover, if the Qualified Archaeologist does not collect the cultural resources that are unearthed during the ground disturbing activities, the Luisefio Native American Monitor, may at their discretion, collect said resources and provide them to the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians for respectful and dignified treatment in accordance with the Tribe's cultural and spiritual traditions. 7. Any and all uncovered Tribal Cultural Resources of Native American importance shall be returned to the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians of Mission Indians, and/or the Most Likely Descendant, if applicable, for respectful and dignified treatment and not be curated. 8. All fill materials shall be absent of any and all Tribal Cultural Resources. 9. No testing, invasive or non-invasive, shall be permitted on unearthed Tribal Cultural Resources without the written permission of the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians. 10. Prior to the release of the grading bond, a monitoring report and/or evaluation report, if appropriate, which describes the results, analysis and conclusions of the monitoring program (e.g., Cultural Resource Recovery Plan) shall be submitted by the Qualified Archaeologist, along with the LuiseFlo Native American Monitor's notes and comments, to the City of Carlsbad for approval. Said report shall be subject to confidentiality as an exception to the Public Records Act and will not be available for public distribution. The project site contains a significant archaeological site, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.4, known as CA-SDI-8797 Locus C, and occurs in a sensitive Tribal Cultural Resource area. The project would require grading and/or excavation that could result in a substantial adverse impact and/or change to a signficiant portion of CA-SDI-8797 Locus C and the sensitive Tribal Cultural Resource area. Impacts to CA-SDI-8797 Locus C and the sensitive Tribal Cultural Resource area will be significant. CR-2. Cultural Resource Data Recovery Plan. In order to mitigate for potential impacts to significant cultural resources associated with CA-SDI-8797 Locus C, a CEQA signficiant archaeological site and a sensitive Tribal Cultural Resource area, a Cultural Resource Data Recovery Plan (DRP) shall be developed in consultation with a Qualified Archaeologist and the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians (SLR) to be approved by the City of Carlsbad. The DRP shall include research design, excavation, analysis, a report of findings, and the repatration of all cultural resources to the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians for respectful and dignified treatment. The DRP shall be approved by the City prior to issuance of any construction permit, including but not limited to, the first Grading Permit, Demolition Plans/Permits and Building Plans/Permit, and prior to the first pre-construction meeting. Prior to any construction permits, including but not limited to, the first Grading Permit, Demolition Plans/Permits and Building Plans/ Permits, but prior to the first pre-construction meeting. City of Carlsbad Page 4 DOCS 121163-000006/2419403.4 Potential Significant Impact Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program Mitigation Measure Timefra me of Mitigation Monitoring, Enforcement, and Reporting Responsibility Human Remains and Archaeological Resources. The project site contains the archaeological site CA-SDI-8797 Locus C and known human burial(s) that were discovered during grading for the Carlsbad Municipal Golf Course and the Lot 9 pad and left in place at the time of discovery. These known resources will be preserved in place and will not be disturbed. Grading and development of the proposed project could disturb undiscovered resources, resulting in a potentially significant impact. CR-3: Repatriation and Report of Findings a. A repatration area(s) shall be identified in an area deemed appropriate by the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians and agreed upon by the City and the applicant to be used in the event that significant Tribal Cultural Resources are discovered. Repatriation areas shall either be located on the project site and/or within close proximity to the project site. A repatriation area shall have a Cultural Conservation Easement and/or similar restrictive easement executed and recorded on the property to protect the cultural resources in perpetuity. The applicant shall be responsible for all costs and/or expenses related and/or associated with the repatriation rrea. b. Human Remains. As specified by California Health and Safety Code Section 7050.5, if human remains are found on the project site during construction or during archaeological work, the person responsible for the excavation, or his or her authorized representative, shall immediately notify the San Diego County Coroner's office by telephone. No further excavation or disturbance of the site or any nearby area reasonably suspected to overlie adjacent remains shall occur until the Coroner has made the necessary findings as to origin and disposition pursuant to Public Resources Code 5097.98. If such a discovery occurs, a temporary construction exclusion zone shall be established surrounding the area of the discovery so that the area would be protected, and consultation and treatment could occur as prescribed by law. By law, the Coroner will determine within two working days of being notified if the remains are subject to his or her authority. If the Coroner recognizes the remains to be Native American, he or she shall contact the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) within 24 hours. The NAHC will make a determination as to the Most Likely Descendent (MLD). If Native American remains are discovered, the remains shall be kept in-situ, and the analysis of the remains shall only occur on-site in the presence of a Luiseflo Native American Monitor. c. In order to permanently protect portions of 501-8797 Locus C, and other areas that are deemed to be significant Tribal Cultural Resource areas by the landowner and the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians, that will not be directly impacted by the construction of the project, the City of Carlsbad and the applicant shall place a Cultural Conservation Easement over said locations and/or areas and have such easement recorded on the property. This easement will restrict any future disturbance of the cultural deposit area. The Qualified Archeologist and Luiseno Native American Monitor shall have the authority inherit in and responsibility to ensure that construction activities are not expanded beyond the limits presented in "Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program" for the Westin Hotel and Timeshare project. The delineation of the boundaries of the Cultural Conservation Easement shall be completed by the consulting Qualified Archaeologist and San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians Tribal representative and submitted to the City of Carlsbad. The applicant shall be responsible for all costs and expenses incurred in association with this mitigation measure. Prior to granting of occupancy permits or before final inspection.

Project implementation has the potential to result in significant impacts to paleontological resources due to grading within formations with a high and moderate resource sensitivity. Impacts would be significant. PAL-1: Paleontological Monitoring 1 . M onitoring N an Prior to any grading on any portion of the project site, a qualified paleontologist shall be retained by the City to prepare a Monitoring Plan. A qualified paleontologist is an individual with an MS or PhD in paleontology or geology who is familiar with paleontological procedures and techniques. No Grading Permits shall be issued until the monitoring plan has been approved by the Planning Director. 2. Pre-Grading Conference and Paleontological Monitor a. A qualified paleontological monitor shall be present at a pre-grading conference with the developer, grading contractor, and the environmental review coordinator. The purpose of this meeting will be to consult and coordinate the role of the paleontologist in the grading of the site. A qualified paleontologist is an individual with adequate knowledge and experience with fossilized remains likely to be present to identify them in the field and is adequately experienced to remove the resources for further study. b. A paleontologist or designate shall be present during those relative phases of grading as determined at the pre-grading conference. The monitor shall have the authority to temporarily direct, divert, or halt grading to allow recovery of fossil remains. At the discretion of the monitor, recovery may include washing and picking of soil samples for micro-vertebrate bone and teeth. The developer shall authorize the deposit of any resources found on the project site in an institution staffed by qualified paleontologists as may be determined by the Planning Director. The contractor shall be aware of the random nature of fossil occurrences and the possibility of a discovery of such scientific and/or educational importance which might warrant a long-term salvage operation or preservation. Any conflicts regarding the role of the paleontologist and/or recovery times shall be resolved by the Planning Director. 3. Fossil Recovery and Curation a. If fossils are discovered, the paleontologist (or paleontological monitor) shall recover them. In most cases, this fossil salvage can be completed in a short period of time. However, some fossil specimens (such as complete large mammal skeleton) may require an extended salvage period. In these instances the paleontologist (or paleontological monitor) shall be allowed to temporarily direct, divert, or halt grading to allow recovery of fossil remains in a timely manner. Because of the potential for the recovery of small fossil remains, such as isolated mammal teeth, it may be necessary in certain instances, to set up a screen-washing operation on the site. b. Fossil remains collected during the monitoring and salvage portion of the mitigation program shall be cleaned repaired, sorted, and cataloged. c. Prepared fossils, along with copies of all pertinent field notes, photos, and maps, shall either be deposited (as a donation) in a scientific institution with permanent paleontological collections such as the San Diego Natural History Museum or retained by the City and displayed to the public at an appropriate location such as a library or City Hall. 4. Monitoring Report Prior to occupancy of any buildings, a paleontological monitoring report shall be submitted to the Planning Director and the Carlsbad Historic Preservation Commission. This report shall describe all the materials recovered and provide a tabulation of the number of hours spent by paleontological monitors on the site. Prior to any construction permits, including but not limited to, the first Grading Permit, Demolition Plans/ Permits and Building Plans/Permits, but prior o the first pre- construction meeting.

Thetnitigation measures proposed regarding the known Native American burial are not in compliance with CEQA Guidelines section 15064.5, subdivisions (d) and (e) and will result in the disinterment of previously reinterred Native American remains, the reinterment.of which was intended as a mitigation measure-for the construction of the Carlsbad Municipal Golf Course. As a trustee agency for Native American cultural resources under CEQA,I the NAHC would welcome the opportunity to work with the City of Carlsbad and the applicant to protect- the burial site and all Native American cultural resources affected by this project. As a matter. of principle, the NAHC opposes the disinterment of previously reinterred Native American remains without the consent of the Most Likely Descendant (MLD), especially when the remains were previously disturbed and then reinterred as a mitigation measure. The NAHC also proposes avoidance and preservation in place as the first and second options to be considered before mitigation and would ask that the applicant and the City of Carlsbad consider theae options fully and thoughtfully. Consultation between the City, applicant, and representatives of the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians occurred on several occasions both prior to and after public review of the Draft Environmental Impact Report (EIR). Consultations occurred between March, 2015 and December, 2015. At an October consultation, the project applicant presented a commitment to avoid significant impacts to known human remains and proposed an alternative foundation design to a typical shallow foundation system, a deep foundation system known as Cast-In-Drilled Hole (CIDH) Pile foundation, which would significantly reduce the amount of disturbance to the capped portion of CA-SDI-8797 Locus C. The pile foundation system would support the structure so that it "floats" above the ground surface and transfers the weight of the structure deep into the earth by means of the concrete piles, or caissons. Thus, the project has been redesigned to avoid and preserve in place all known human remains as well as reduce to the greatest extent feasible, disturbance to the capped portion of CA-SDI-8797 Locus C. B-1 B-1 B-2 As described in response B-1 above, the project has been redesigned so that it would avoid and preserve in place all known human remains. Thus, mitigation measure ARC-3, Recovery of Known Human Burial is no longer required. The City conferred with representatives from the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians (SLR), as the Most Likely Descendant (MLD) regarding the proposed project redesign and avoidance of known human remains. The proposed mitigation plan to address potentially significant impacts to unknown human remains was also refined with input from tribal representatives. B-2 The NAHC's comments are as follows: 1. Mitigation Measure ARC-3: Recovery of Known Burial Mitigation Measure ARC-3: Recovery of Known Burial states as a potential significant impact the fitct that the project site contains a known human burial that was discovered and See Environmental Protection Information center (EPIC) v. Johnson (1985) 170 Cal.App.3d 604; see generally Koska and Zisehke, Practice under the Califbrnia Environmental QucrIiiy Act (2015) (CEB) § 20.101 ("If a project is located on a site containing an archaeological site, the Native American Heritage Cotnmission is a trustee agency that must be consulted by the lead agency in connection with the preparation of an EIR or negative declaration.") LETTER RESPONSE Westin Hotel and Timeshare EIR Page RTC-4 reinterred during grading for the Carlsbad Municipal Golf Course, and that project grading and development is anticipated to require disturbance and relocation of these known remains in coordination with the Most Likely Descendant. It also states as a potential significant impact the fact that there is a potential for unknown human remains to be uncovered during project grading and these impacts would be potentially. significant The mitigation measure states that excavations would be conducted, and the goal of the excavations would be to locate, pedestal and remove the burial on a block of soil and relocate the burial to an off-sitelocation approved by the MLD. Nowhere in this mitigation measure is it stated that the MLD for this known burial, the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians (SLR); has agreed to the disinterment and reburial of this known burial, because SLR has not consented to the disinterment. Under CEQA Guidelines section 15064.5 (d) and (c), and in the absence of avoidance, the failure to work with SLR to reach an agreement as to treatment and disposition of this known burial leaves the project applicant with one and only one option should the remains be disturbed: To reinter any remains on the property in an area where there will be no further subsurface disturbance, which was the goal of the previous reinterment. The ambiguity of the term "off-site" does not connote compliance with CEQA Guidelines section 15064.5, subdivisions (d) and (e) and raises the legal issue whether remains that were intended to be reinterred in an area without future subsurface disturbance can be disinterred without the MLD's consent. The NAHC doubts that SLR would have agreed to the prior reinterment if they had known they would have to disturb the resting place of their ancestors.yet again. CEQA Guidelines section 15964.5; subdivision (d) provides in relevant part: (d) When an initial study identifies the exittence of, or the probable likelihood, of Native American human remains within the project, the lead agency shall work with the appropriate Native Americans as identified by the Native American Heritage Commission as provided in Public Resources Code section 5097.98.

B-2 cont. Mitigation Measure ARC-2 has been revised to specifically refer to the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians as the appropriate Native American Monitor during construction. Additionally, a new Mitigation Measure ARC-3 is proposed that would require dedication of an open space easement over the cultural resources on- site and would prohibit any disturbance to the known human remains. In the event unknown buried human remains are encountered during grading for the project site, those human remains would be handled in accordance with all applicable guidance and regulations and would be reinterred on-site as requested during consultations with the MLD.

Nothing in CEQA Guidelines section 15064.5 contemplates the unilateral disintennent of a known Native American burial by an. applicant without the consent of the MIA/ Given the potential for finding more burials in the area of the known burial, in the absence of some agreement with SLR, the mitigation measure is insufficient to mitigate impacts- to the known' burial and what .could be a Native American cemetery. Additionally, given that the previous reintertnent of remains was supposed to mitigate previous impacts caused by the construction of the Carlsbad Municipal Golf -Course, the idea that any known Native American reinterments should be disinterred .whenever a new project is proposed for a site where a reinterment was'a mitigation measure is objectionable on both a legal and moral basis, especially given the dictate that a reinterrnent of Native American human remains is to be in a site where there should be no further subsurface disturbance. The NAHC recommends that theapplicent enter into a treaunent and disposition agreementwith SLR. B-2 cont. B-3 The project includes Mitigation Measure ARC-1, which details the data recovery plan for project impacts to CA-SDI-8797 Locus C. This mitigation measure was revised from the Draft EIR version after consultation with the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians. This measure reflects reduced impacts to CA-SDI-8797 Locus C as a result of the use of an alternative foundation system as detailed in Response B-1. At the request of the tribes, the project mitigation would require that any cultural materials encountered during data recovery be reburied on-site within the proposed open space easement to preserve cultural materials in place. This would include any grave goods that may be encountered. Implementation of Mitigation Measure ARC-2 for archaeological monitoring requires the use of a Native American Monitor who will be present to observe any cultural materials found and identify their cultural significance. B-3 2. Mitigation Measure ARC -1: Data Recovery Program Mitigation Measure ARC-1 contemplates data recovery as mitigation for artifacts found in the same area as the known burial. The determination as to what artifacts are associated grave goods should be made by the MLD, and them should be some means of resolving conflicts regarding what are or are not associated grave goods, as the tvILD has tribal knowledge and a significant role in determining the treatment and disposition of assOciated grave goods under CEQA Guidelines section 15064.5 (d) and (e). 3 LETTER RESPONSE Westin Hotel and Timeshare EIR Page RTC-6 B-4 The portion of Mitigation Measure ARC-2 that required controlled grading to find the known human burial(s) is no longer required and has been removed from the Final EIR because the project has been redesigned to avoid known human burials. The alternative foundation system would reduce impacts to and would minimize impacts to the cultural site. 100 percent hand excavation and data recovery would occur in the location of caisson excavations, and 15 percent or greater data recovery would be required in the location of the elevator pit and basement excavations as detailed in the project's Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program. Tribal monitors would be present to monitor all excavations on-site and would have the authority to halt operations if materials are identified as detailed in the updated Mitigation Measure ARC-2, which requires archaeological monitoring. B-5 This is a concluding paragraph. As discussed in response to comments B-1 through B-4 and detailed in the Final EIR Errata and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program, the project has been redesigned to avoid impacts to known Native American burials. In addition, the City has worked closely with the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians to identify a compromise solution that would provide the minimum amount of disturbance to other on-site cultural resources. B-4 3. Mitigation Measure ARC-2: Archaeological Monitoring Program Mitigation Measure ARC-2 provides under section A.5; provides: In areas within the area of potential effect where significant deposits have been identified, controlled grading may be implemented to carefully peel away layers of soil, which would expose features of human remains with minimal damage. The consulting archaeologist, in conjunction with the Native American monitors, shall determine when and where the controlled grading is needed. The pace, depth, and location of the controlled grading protocol will be made in concert with tribal monitors, but it will ultimately be the responsibility of the consulting archaeologist. The NAHC would propose that the peep, depth and location of the controlled grading protocol be with the consent of tribal monitors, as their unique tribal knowledge regarding the site should be respected in protecting the Native American burials that could potentially be discovered. B-5 What makes this particularly disturbing is the fact that this burial was known to or should have been known to the City of Carlsbad before leasing the property in question. Native Americans should not be required to rebury their ancestors every time a new project comes along on a parcel with a known Native American burial. No other culture would be required to repeatedly rebury their ancestors. That's not.mitination; that's desecration. ceYo s very. tru c 4e,,) Terrie L.

Based on the information contained in the DEIR, we have the following comments: (1) The cultural resources appendix, Appendix D, is not posted on the City's websitc with the main body of the DEIR, and SDCAS was not sent a copy of the appendix. Therefore, our comments cannot extend to the details of the 2015 work on SDI-8797, Locus C, by Brian F. Smith & Associates. (2) Section 4.4 of the:DEIR, Cultural and Paleontological Resources, is comprehensive and well thought out. We concur with the impact analySis and with the mitigation measures as proposed. (3) It is unfortunate that the project applicants either chose to ignore the information available, or failed to do a due-diligence cultural resources study of the property before deciding to proceed with a proposed development that would impact a portion of a site which (a) Was capped only about 10 years ago to protect it, presumably in perpetuity, and (b) Was deemed potentially eligible for the National Register of Historic Places, and (c) Obviously holds particular cultural sensitivity due to the known burial on the site. The proposed project disrespects both the cultural and scientific values of Locus C of SDI-8797. P.O. Box 81106 San Diego, CA 92138-1106 (858) 538-0935 Comment noted. Comment noted. As described in the responses to Comment Letter B, the project has been redesigned since public review of the Draft EIR to increase avoidance to CA-SDI-8797 Locus C and to avoid impacts to known Native American burial(s) on the project site. This has been achieved through redesign and use of an alternative foundation design, which would support the hotel structure so that it "floats" above the ground surface and transfers the weight of the structure deep into the earth by means of the concrete piles, or caissons. With implementation of this redesign and alternative foundation system, the project would avoid and preserve in place all known human remains and would avoid disturbance to approximately 80 percent of CA-SDI-8797 Locus C. The City recognizes and respects the cultural sensitivity of the project site and has worked closely with the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians to arrive at a solution that would protect the on-site cultural resources to the maximum extent practical. The project would implement the alternative foundation design for the hotel structure, data recovery for areas of CA-SDI-8797 Locus C that would be disturbed by the project, additional subsurface archaeological testing in areas that have never been tested (around the water tank), and implementation of an open space easement to protect the on-site cultural resources from further disturbance. These revised mitigation measures would further reduce impacts to cultural resources and avoid impacts to human burials.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND The 424 acre Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan (SP 207) was first approved in 1993. Carlsbad Ranch is located north of Palomar Airport Road, south of Cannon Road, east of Carlsbad Car Country and west of The Crossings at Carlsbad golf course. In October 2004 the City Council approved an amendment to the Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan [SP 207(E)] to define the development of the approximately 53 acre Planning EIR 15-02/GPA 14-03/ZC 14-02/LCPA 14-03/SP 207(K)/CT 14-08/PUD 15-01/SDP 14-11/CUP 15-03/CDP 14-29/HDP 14-06 — WESTIN HOTEL AND TIMESHARE December 16, 2015 Page 2 Area 5 with a timeshare/hotel resort. That approval included 3 hotel buildings with 350 hotel rooms, multiple timeshare buildings with 350 timeshare units, onsite recreation facilities and restaurants to be used by both resorts as well as circulation and parking for both resorts. Planning Area 5 has been developing in phases. The completed phases to date include the main central circulation (Grand Pacific Drive), the main parking lot, several smaller parking areas, two three-level Sheraton hotel-room buildings with 250 rooms, a Sheraton hotel reception and conference building with outdoor pool recreation area, 14 MarBrisa timeshare villas with 172 units, a MarBrisa resort lobby/sales building, and two outdoor pool recreation areas. Revisions to the Planning Area 5 site plan and buildings were recently approved by the City Council and included minor changes to secondary circulation and parking areas north of the existing Sheraton hotel-room buildings, the addition of a new 17,000 sq. ft. resort center which will house a new lobby entrance with porte-cochere, conference center, 4,200 square foot restaurant, the elimination of a free-standing restaurant pad located at the Cannon Road project entry, and the re-configuration and expansion of the second Sheraton pool area. Revisions to the approved architecture include the introduction of four-story hotel and timeshare buildings with an overall building height of 45 feet. The project includes the addition of the 3.6 acre property, to the Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan as Planning Area 5A, a subset of PA 5, the development of a 71-room 4-story hotel building and a 36 timeshare unit 3-story building over a basement garage. The 3.6 acre project site is located at the northern terminus of The Crossings Drive, west of The Crossings at Carlsbad clubhouse, and east of the existing MarBrisa timeshare resort and Sheraton Hotel. The site is comprised of a pad elevated above the surrounding development that was created at the same time as The Crossings golf course. On the western part of the pad is a de-commissioned 1.5 million gallon, 40- foot tall water tank which will be removed. Two buildings flanking a central passive open space area are proposed. The western most building is the hotel. It has a north-south orientation, is proposed with four habitable floors of hotel rooms within a 45 foot height, all rooms have a western view orientation, there is a central atrium lobby space, and it is topped by an outdoor roof veranda. The architecture is of the same Mediterranean style as the MarBrisa and Sheraton developments to the west. The timeshare building is located on the eastern side of the lot in an expanded "V" configuration also in a north-south orientation. This building is proposed with three habitable floors of timeshare units, the view orientation of the units are both to the west toward the central open area and to the east. The timeshare building includes a ground floor of tuck-under parking and the overall building height is 45 feet. The architecture is of the same Mediterranean style as the MarBrisa and Sheraton developments to the west. Approval of a habitable fourth level is contingent upon adoption of the proposed Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan amendment (SP 207K) which includes the proposal to add this property to Carlsbad Ranch Planning Area 5 as a sub-area Planning Area 5A and to allow the fourth habitable level within the existing allowance of a 45-foot height limit. In addition, the Specific Plan amendment strikes mention of uses that were anticipated but not realized from the original text, provides some current clean-up text, and introduces new parking and setback standards for Planning Area 5 and 5A.

Local Coastal Program (Mello II Segment); F. Hillside Development Ordinance (Chapter 21.); and G. McClellan-Palomar Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan H. Growth Management—Zone 8 Local Facilities Management Plan A. General Plan — Visitor Commercial (VC) The project includes a request to change the General Plan land use designation of the site to Visitor Commercial (VC). The VC land use designates areas for visitor attractions and commercial uses that serve the travel and recreational needs of tourists and residents as well as employees of business and industrial centers. Table 2 below indicates how the development of the site under a Visitor Commercial land use designation complies with the elements of the General Plan. EIR 15-02/GPA 14-03/ZC 14-02/LCPA 14-03/SP 207(K)/CT 14-08/PUD 15-01/SDP 14-11/CUP 15-03/CDP 14-29/HDP 14-06 — WESTIN HOTEL AND TIMESHARE December 16, 2015 Page 4 TABLE 2: GENERAL PLAN COMPLIANCE ELEMENT USE CLASSIFICATION, GOAL, OBJECTIVE, OR PROGRAM PROPOSED USES AND IMPROVEMENTS COMPLY Land Use 2-G.10 Promote continued growth of visitor- oriented land uses, and provide enhanced opportunities for new hotels and visitor services in desirable locations. The project is the development of 71 hotel rooms and 36 timeshare units. Yes 2-P.23 Sites designated for "Visitor Commercial" uses should generally be located near major transportation corridors and proximate to key tourist/visitor draws such as hotels and LEGO LAND. The project site is located adjacent to LEGOLAND, the Sheraton Resort, and the Crossings at Carlsbad golf course. Yes Mobility 3-P.5 Require developers to construct or pay their fair share toward improvements for all travel modes consistent with the Mobility Element, the Growth Management Plan, and specific impacts associated with their development. • The proposal does not require improvements to the existing street system. Yes 3-P.38 Develop flexible on-site vehicle parking requirements including innovative parking techniques, effective TDM programs to reduce parking demand, and other means to efficiently manage parking supply and demand. The project includes a shared common parking agreement with the adjacent Sheraton hotel development. Yes B. Zoning — Qualified Development Overlay Zone (Q), Commercial Tourist (C-T), Conditional Use Permit The project includes a request to change the zoning of the site to Commercial Tourist (C-T) with a Qualified Development Overlay (Q). The project is therefore subject to the Qualified Development Overlay Zone Chapter 21.06; Commercial Tourist Chapter 21.29; and Conditional Uses Chapter 21.42. The permitted uses and physical development aspects of the project are governed by the Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan. The Qualified Development Overlay Zone requires project review pursuant to a Site Development Plan (SDP). The intent of the overlay is to insure that development will be compatible with surrounding developments, both existing and proposed. The proposed project is a hotel and timeshare development similar in character and use as the existing adjacent Sheraton Hotel and MarBrisa timeshare resort. No special considerations or conditions are necessary to ensure that the project will be compatible with the existing development on adjacent properties. EIR 15-02/GPA 14-03/ZC 14-02/LCPA 14-03/SP 207(K)/CT 14-08/PUD 15-01/SDP 14-11/CUP 15-03/CDP 14-29/HDP 14-06 — WESTIN HOTEL AND TIMESHARE December 16, 2015 Page 5 The Commercial Tourist zone establishes land uses that are appropriate for serving the tourist community and their needs while visiting Carlsbad. The project is a continuation of the hotel and timeshare uses that currently exist on the adjacent property within Planning Area 5 of the Carlsbad Ranch. The hotel and timeshare project implements the intention of the zone by creating the opportunity for three separately branded resorts within Carlsbad Ranch that will serve different clients. The purpose of the Conditional Use Permit is to allow special consideration for certain uses to be located in zones other than those in which they are classified as permitted because of their particular characteristics. The timeshare component of the proposed project is subject to the review and approval of a Conditional Use Permit. Given the existing hotel and timeshare development within Planning Area 5 and the commercial tourist nature of the other surrounding development which includes LEGOLAND and the Carlsbad municipal golf course, there are no special conditions beyond those identified in Chapter 21.42 specific to timeshare projects required in the Conditional Use Permit necessary to achieve land use compatibility. The proposed timeshare development will operate in the same manner as the existing Planning Area 5 MarBrisa Resort. The following findings and support are required to be made to approve the Conditional Use Permit. That the requested use is necessary or desirable for the development of the community, and is in harmony with the various elements and objectives of the general plan, including, if applicable, the certified local coastal program, specific plan or master plan, in that timeshare ownership provides one opportunity among many opportunities to achieve a form of land ownership. That the requested use is not detrimental to existing uses or to uses specifically permitted in the zone in which the proposed use is to be located in that timeshare condominium units are established as an encouraged and allowed use within the Visitor Commercial General Plan land use designation and the land use table for Planning Area 5 and 5A of the Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan. That the site for the proposed conditional use is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the yards, setbacks, walls, fences, parking, loading facilities, buffer areas, landscaping and other development features prescribed in this code and required by the City Planner, planning commission or city council, in order to integrate the use with other uses in the neighborhood, in that as designed the project site accommodates the proposed development without the inclusion of special adjustments or variances to development standards. That the street system serving the proposed use is adequate to properly handle all traffic generated by the proposed use, in that the 856 Average Daily Trips generated by the resort property will be distributed between The Crossings Drive, Cannon Road and Palomar Airport Road. C. Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan (SP 207) The project includes an amendment to the Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan to add the 3.6 acre project site to Planning Area 5 as a subset (Planning Area 5A) and to include development standards appropriate for Planning Area 5A. The physical development of the site requires compliance with the proposed development standards of the Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan: Planning Area 5 and 5A. As seen in the following Table 3, the proposed project meets or exceeds the development standards established and proposed in the Specific Plan.

The approval must be pursuant to a Site Development Plan approved by the City Council and providing that 1) setbacks from the planning area's outer perimeter shall be increased at a EIR 15-02/GPA 14-03/ZC 14-02/LCPA 14-03/SP 207(K)/CT 14-08/PUD 15-01/SDP 14-11/CUP 15-03/CDP 14-29/HDP 14-06 — WESTIN HOTEL AND TIMESHARE December 16, 2015 Page 7 ratio of one horizontal foot for every one foot of vertical construction beyond 35 feet; 2) The additional setback area shall be maintained as a landscaped open space; and 3) The building conforms to the requirements of Section 18.04.020 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code. Each of the 45-foot tall buildings is located further from the outer perimeter property line than the minimum 30-foot setback requirement for the proposed height. The minimum proposed setback is 41 feet from the hotel building to the adjacent open space lot to the east. The extended setback areas are predominantly landscaped with the exception of the 75-foot setback to the timeshare building which includes circulation and parking. All of the buildings onsite, regardless of building height, must comply with Carlsbad Municipal Code Section 18.04.020 which is the requirement to obtain a building permit prior to construction according to plans reviewed and approved by the City and after paying all appropriate fees prior to obtaining a building permit. 2 The Carlsbad Municipal Code Parking Ordinance (Chapter 21.44) and the Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan designate a per-room parking demand of 1.2 parking spaces for all timeshare units and all hotel units. However, the original approvals granted in 2004 for the Planning Area 5 resort site included 1.5 parking spaces as a demand for each timeshare unit that included a "lock-off'. Therefore, for consistency, the "lock-off' timeshare parking standard of .1.5 spaces per unit with a lock-off has been proposed as a standard for Planning Area 5 and 5A. A parking standard of 1.5 parking spaces is assigned to the timeshare units proposed with a "lock-off". 3 The Parking Ordinance (Chapter 21.44) allows an offset of parking demand for integrated developments that have the potential of "sharing" patrons and thereby diminishing the actual demand for parking. The parking available to the Westin Hotel and Timeshare project includes both those that are onsite for PA 5A and all of the spaces located within PA5. A limit of up to 15% of the required parking may fall into the shared category of a Common Parking Facility. Also in consideration for common facilities is the number of spaces allocated to meeting rooms. Meeting room occupancy is in great part attributed to destination conference events which directly affects and is affected by room occupancy. Assessing the entire parking demand for both Planning Areas 5 and 5A, the proposed parking count includes 198 Common Parking spaces which is equal to a 12.9% reduction. Findings for approval of the common parking are made as part of the Site Development Plan. D. Title 20 and Non-Residential Planned Development (Chapter 21.47) The project includes 36 air-space timeshare condominium units and is therefore subject to the regulations of Chapter 20.16 of the Subdivision Ordinance. These subdivision regulations require the project to include street dedications and improvements (streets, sewer, water, and drainage) to serve the proposed subdivision. The Land Development Engineering Division has reviewed the proposed Tentative Map and has concluded that the subdivision of one of the buildings into timeshare airspace ownership units, as conditioned, complies with all the applicable requirements of the Subdivision Map Act and the City's Subdivision Ordinance. Cannon Road and The Crossings Drive are publicly dedicated roadways and no additional improvements or dedication of streets are required. All infrastructure improvements, including street frontage, drainage, sewer, and water facilities exist. EIR 15-02/GPA 14-03/ZC 14-02/LCPA 14-03/SP 207(K)/CT 14-08/PUD 15-01/SDP 14-11/CUP 15-03/CDP 14-29/HDP 14-06 — WESTIN HOTEL AND TIMESHARE December 16, 2015 Page 8 No standards variances are needed to approve the timeshare subdivision. Given the above, the proposed subdivision would provide all necessary facilities and improvements without producing land conflicts; therefore, the project is consistent with the Subdivision Ordinance. The project is also subject to the provisions of the Non-Residential Planned Development Ordinance since it is the creation of timeshare airspace ownership units. This chapter is the mechanism by which non- residential airspace condominium units may be created in conjunction with a tentative map. No special development criteria is established by this chapter. The project includes an application for a Non- Residential Planned Development Permit. E. Local Coastal Program and Coastal Resource Protection Overlay The project site is located within the Mello II Segment of the Local Coastal Program, but is not within the appealable jurisdiction of the California Coastal Commission. The site is also located within and subject to the Coastal Resources Protection Overlay Zone. The project's compliance with each of these programs and ordinances is discussed below: 1. Mello II Segment of the Certified Local Coastal Program and all applicable policies The project is located in the Mello II Segment of the Local Coastal Program. The project site is proposed to have a Local Coastal Program Land Use designation of Visitor Commercial (VC) and zoning of Commercial Tourist, Qualified Development Overlay Zone (C-T-Q) consistent with the proposed City's General Plan Land Use designation and Zoning for the site. One of the primary requirements of the applicable coastal regulations pertains to the conversion of agricultural land to urban use. The property is not identified as an active "Map X - Designated Coastal Agricultural Lands" site since a fee was paid with previous approvals for that portion of the property that fell within the area designated on the map and therefore, is not required to be preserved nor is it subject to an agricultural conversion mitigation fee. The project is further consistent with the policies of the Coastal Act in that, a) the site is geologically stable; b) the project has been designed to reduce the amount of runoff off-site through the use of Low Impact Development (LID) design features and has been conditioned to implement the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) standards; c) the project does not preclude any recreational opportunities or shoreline access as the property is not located adjacent to any waterways or bodies of water; and d) the development does not obstruct views of the coastline as seen from public lands or public rights-of-way. 2. Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone The project is consistent with the provisions of the Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone (C.M.C. Chapter 21.203) in that the project will adhere to the City's Master Drainage Plan, Grading Ordinance, Storm Water Ordinance, Standard Urban Storm Water Mitigation Plan (SUSMP) and Jurisdictional Urban Runoff Management Program (JURMP) to avoid increased urban run-off, pollutants and soil erosion. No development is proposed in areas of natural steep slopes (?_25% gradient) and no native vegetation is located on the subject property. In addition, the site is not located in an area prone to landslides, or susceptible to accelerated erosion, floods or liquefaction. EIR 15-02/GPA 14-03/ZC 14-02/LCPA 14-03/SP 207(K)/CT 14-08/PUD 15-01/SDP 14-11/CUP 15-03/CDP 14-29/HDP 14-06 — WESTIN HOTEL AND TIMESHARE December 16, 2015 Page 9 F. Hillside Development Ordinance Portions of the property have a gradient of fifteen percent or more and an elevation differential greater than fifteen feet. Therefore, grading and development of the site requires the issuance of a Hillside Development Permit. The Hillside Ordinance development standards are largely intended to direct the development of property with natural slopes, however, there are development standards that apply to properties that have manufactured slopes. This property was graded and a development pad created as part of the approval process and construction of the Carlsbad municipal golf course thereby creating a lot with manufactured "downhill perimeter slopes" along the eastern perimeter. As proposed, project grading cuts into the eastern half of the site to create driveway access, surface parking, and ground level tuck-under parking for the timeshare building. This design re-grades the site and establishes new downhill perimeter slopes and a new top-of-slope along the eastern perimeter of the lot. The re-grading requires an export of 14,610 cubic yards. The effect creates a building profile for the timeshare building, as seen from the east, of a four-story building and as seen from the west of a three-story building. Retaining walls are located along the eastern manufactured slope of the project site. The use of retaining walls allows for the preservation of more buildable pad area and eliminates the need to extend the toe of the new manufactured slope into the adjoining property which is a Habitat Management Plan hardline preserve. To the greatest degree possible for four-story hotel buildings, the project applies the hillside and hilltop architecture design principals of paralleling the slope contours and including roof slopes that follow the same slope direction as the lot. Development of the lot is subject to a top-of-slope edge setback relative to the onsite downhill perimeter slopes along the north and eastern perimeters. Those top-of-slopes are both a portion of the existing pad and the new outer eastern edge of slope established by the Fire Department vehicle access and driveway access to the parking garage. The top-of-slope setback requirement is equal to 0.7 horizontal foot for every 1.0 vertical foot of building face that parallels the top-of-slope. The timeshare building's eastern face is 43 feet to the bottom of the roof so a 30-foot top-of-slope setback is required and provided at its closest points along the Fire Department vehicle access. The Hillside Ordinance includes a provision that no main or accessory building may encroach over the top/edge of a downhill perimeter slope. However, if such an encroachment is necessary to fulfill the project goal and is designed to preserve and or reduce encroachment into slopes and open space, it may be allowed. The project has a unique grade change issue to be solved in that the existing hotel in Planning Area 5 must be connected with the proposed hotel in Planning Area 5A. A walkway and elevator tower is proposed for that connection and is designed to be cut into the adjacent north and northwest slope. The design of encroaching over the top of the slope for the elevator is less impactful to the slope than creating several cuts into the slope for an ADA compliant ramp. G. Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan (ALUCP) The project site is located within Review Area 2 of the Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan (ALUCP) for the McClellan-Palomar Airport, it is within Safety Zone 6, and the southernmost part of the project site is located within the 60-65 CNEL noise contour. As stated in the Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan for EIR 15-02/GPA 14-03/ZC 14-02/LCPA 14-03/SP 207(K)/CT 14-08/PUD 15-01/SDP 14-11/CUP 15-03/CDP 14-29/HDP 14-06 — WESTIN HOTEL AND TIMESHARE December 16, 2015 Page 10 McClellan-Palomar Airport (ALUCP), hotels are conditionally compatible uses in 60-65 CNEL noise contours. The interior noise level must be attenuated to 45 decibels CNEL, however the outdoor noise level is acceptable for associated outdoor activities, pursuant to the ALUCP. The project is conditioned to comply with this requirement. A noise analysis was conducted by RECON Environmental, Inc. for the project dated April 30, 2015. The report indicates that the principal noise source impacting the southern portion of the site is McClellan-Palomar Airport, with additional noise contribution from Palomar Airport Road. The southern portion of the project site will be subject to exterior noise levels of less than 65 dB CNEL. H. Growth Management—Zone 8 Local Facilities Management Plan The proposed project is located within Local Facilities Management Zone 8 in the northwest quadrant of the City. The impacts on public facilities created by the project, and its compliance with the adopted performance standards, are summarized in Table 4 below. TABLE 4— GROWTH MANAGEMENT COMPLIANCE STANDARD IMPACTS COMPLIANCE City Administration N/A N/A Library N/A N/A Waste Water Treatment 81 EDU Yes Parks N/A N/A Drainage 73 cfs Yes Circulation 856 ADT Yes Fire Fire Station No. 5 Yes Open Space 0.25 acres Yes Schools N/A N/A Sewer Collection System 81 EDU Yes Water 20,100 GPD Yes At the time that the Zone 8 Local Facilities ManageMent Plan was first adopted and subsequently amended the site was designated as Open Space and was not considered in having any significant demand for the improvement of infrastructure within Zone 8. With the approval of The Crossings at Carlsbad golf course, the project site land use was changed to industrial use and the appropriate facilities needs were conditioned to be constructed concurrent with that development. Currently, all of the community infrastructure located within Zone 8 that would require a contribution from the development of the site as a non-residential project, has been completed including street improvements to Palomar Airport Road, Cannon Road, Faraday Avenue, and College Boulevard. Development of the site with a 71-room hotel and 36-unit timeshare does not create the need for new or expanded infrastructure and is therefore consistent with the existing Zone 8 Local Facilities Management Plan. IV. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW An Environmental Impact Report (EIR) was prepared for the Westin Hotel and Timeshare in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the CEQA Guidelines, and the Environmental Protection Procedures (Title 19) of the CMC. The EIR addresses the environmental impacts associated with all discretionary applications for the proposed project, including ultimate build-out of the entire EIR 15-02/GPA 14-03/ZC 14-02/LCPA 14-03/SP 207(K)/CT 14-08/PUD 15-01/SDP 14-11/CUP 15-03/CDP 14-29/HDP 14-06 — WESTIN HOTEL AND TIMESHARE December 16, 2015 Page 11 project. City staff issued a Notice of Preparation (NOP) on April 7, 2015. The NOP was distributed to all Responsible and Trustee Agencies, as well as other agencies, and members of the public. The public was invited to comment on the scope and content of the EIR. Three responses were received regarding cultural resources. Modifications to the project and mitigation measures were implemented to address the comments received. The Westin Hotel and Timeshare EIR analyzed the following areas of potential environmental impact: Aesthetics Air Quality Biological Resources Cultural and Paleontological Resources Greenhouse Gas Emissions Hazardous Materials, Airport Safety, and Wildfire Hydrology and Water Quality Land Use Noie Public Services Transportation and Circulation Utilities and Service System The Draft EIR includes sections required by CEQA including an Executive Summary, Project Description, Cumulative Effects, Effects Found Not to Be Significant, and Growth Inducing Effects and Alternatives. Alternatives are considered in the EIR including the "no project/existing General Plan" alternative, a "no project/no development" alternative, and a reduced development footprint alternative. On July 21, 2015, the Draft EIR was published and the City notified interested Responsible and Trustee Agencies, as well as other interested agencies. The "Notice of Completion" commenced an initial 45 day public review and comment period expiring on September 8, 2015. The "Notice of Completion" advised that the Draft EIR was available for review at four locations: the City of Carlsbad Planning Division; the City Clerk's Office; the Carlsbad Dove Library; and the Georgina Cole Library. Complete copies were also available for purchase, with or without the appendices and on CD, through the Planning Division. The Draft EIR was also published on the City's website. The analysis contained in the EIR concluded that all significant impacts would be mitigated to below a level of significance. Three comment letters, all of them pertaining to onsite cultural resources, were submitted in response to the public review period. Responses to the comment letters were prepared and mailed to the commenters. An alternative "Caisson Foundation" project was created in response to the comments and is the recommended project. The alternative project introduces a caisson foundation for the hotel building which creates a floating platform above the ground surface versus a spread footings foundation that is cut directly into and formed on the ground surface. The advantage of using caissons, is the reduction in physical disturbance to the ground beneath the hotel building.

The project is not within the appealable area of the California Coastal Commission. Commissioner L'Heureux disclosed that he has previously handled the estate of the project applicant's consultant; however there is no conflict of interest with him participating in the agenda item. Mr. Neu introduced Agenda Item 2 and stated Senior Planner Christer Westman would make the staff presentation. Mr. Westman gave a brief presentation and stated he vvould be available to answer any questions. Chairperson Anderson asked if there were any questions of staff. Chairperson Anderson asked about the Mitigation Monitoring and Report Program and the changes being requested by the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians as well as the archeology society. Mr. Westman stated that they would like to continue consultations in order to further improve and refine the language in the approving documents. Because this a recommendation of approval to the council, that process will continue. Ron Kemp, Assistant City Attorney, stated they are opposed to the project in principle. However, given the consultations and negotiations with the city, they are satisfied with the project moving forward. Mr. Kemp commented that the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians reserve the right to tinker with the documents. Mr. Westman stated a critical factor with this project is the foundation system. He stated the type of system for this project is a caisson foundation which has a different type of impact on the soil beneath it. Mr. Kemp stated the Commission would review that item as a mitigation measure that would lessen the impact of the construction of the hotel on the cultural resources that may be there. Chairperson Anderson asked about the possible dedication of open space. Mr. Westman explained that if the project is approved and constructed, there will be areas within the 3.6 acres, particularly the courtyard/garden area, which will have a cultural resources easement. Commissioner Black asked about the removal of the water tank and if another tank will be installed. Mr. Westman stated no other tank will be installed on the property as there is sufficient supply from other sources. Commissioner L'Heureux commented that a mitigation measure will be developed stating that a caisson foundation is the preferred method of construction. Mr. Westman explained that the caisson foundation is part of the project and there will not be any further changes. The San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians are concerned that there may be too much information included in the documents that may reveal sacred resources on the property and they would like to see the language modified to lessen the identification of sensitive resources. Mr. Kemp stated that there is an agreement in principle with the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians. There are no substantive changes proposed to the project, it is simply wordsmithing. The city will be meeting with the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians on Monday. If there are any substantive changes, the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians would like to reserve that right when the project moves forward to City Council. Planning Commission Minutes December 16, 2015 Page 4 Chairperson Anderson asked if there were any further questions of staff. Seeing none, she asked if the applicant wished to make a presentation. Bill Hofman, Hofman Planning and Engineering, 3152 Lionshead Av, Carlsbad, gave a detailed presentation and stated he would be available to answer any questions. Commissioner Black asked about the placement of the caisson foundation and what will happen if artifacts are found. Mr. Hofman stated that they are obligated by state law to immediately cease operations, identify it and mitigate it. Commissioner Montgomery asked about the changes to the existing hotel. Mr. Hofman deferred to Tim Stripe. Tim Stripe, Grand Pacific Resort, 5900 Pasteur Court, Carlsbad, explained the construction of the new hotel which will have separate lobbies, separate check-ins, and separate restaurants. Commissioner L'Heureux asked for clarification regarding the franchise agreement. Mr. Stripe stated that the franchise agreement calls for 200 Sheraton rooms and 200 Westin units. Commissioner L'Heureux asked about the number of hotel rooms in the city and the demand. Mr. Stripe stated that what exists today under the Sheraton brand is 250 rooms. They will be adding 150 rooms and Mr. Stripe stated he is confident the demand is there for that segment of property. Commissioner L'Heureux asked about the timeframe for the entire project. Mr. Stripe estimated late spring 2018 as long as the approval process goes as planned. Commissioner L'Heureux asked about cumulative impacts of traffic on Palomar Airport Road and the fact there is no mitigation required. Mr. Hofman explained that they reviewed the project at a very worst case scenario with the Caruso project being approved. Looking at this project by itself and the driving patterns of hotel guests in general, they just do not drive during peak hours. Commissioner Segall asked if the entrance from the lobby to the new entrance will be covered. Mr. Hofman stated it is outdoors now and it is not an issue. Commissioner Segall asked about the parking for the "V" shaped building. Mr. Stripe stated that most guests that„use the Westin brand will look for valet parking, not self-parking. He added that for the Marbrisa Timeshare units, there will be basement parking plus 40 surface spaces. Chairperson Anderson asked about the comment regarding an underserved market for 4 star hotels. Mr. Stripe explained that currently the Sheraton runs at about 83% occupancy. They feel with the price differentiation between the brands they will obtain the same occupancy rate. Chairperson Anderson asked if that has any bearing on the Caruso project. Mr. Stripe stated no. Chairperson Anderson asked about employee parking. Mr. Stripe stated that the employees currently park in the lower lot. In the future, there will still be available parking for employees, however if issues arise in the future, there is still room for a parking garage. Chairperson Anderson asked about the additional buildings to be constructed after this. Mr. Stripe stated that this plan includes project buildout. Chairperson Anderson asked about the basement adjacent to the elevator and if it is allowed. Mr. Westman stated it is considered a basement because it is completely underground. It is not counted in the building height and is considered to be exempt. Commissioner Montgomery asked if there a physical alteration to the existing buildings to bring it to the level of Westin standards and if so will it go through the Planning Commission or if it will be done through the building permit process. Mr. Stripe stated the rooms were built to the Westin standards. There will be interior upgrades to the rooms. Chairperson Anderson asked if there were any further questions of the applicant. Seeing none, she asked if any person in the audience wished to speak on the item. Seeing none, Chairperson Anderson opened and closed public testimony on Agenda Item 2. Chairperson Anderson commented that there are no requirements for employee parking. Mr. Westman stated that the city does not have employee parking standards for any commercial or industrial buildings. DISCUSSION Commissioner Montgomery stated that he make all the findings and believes the project meets the standards. He can support the project. Commissioner Black commented that he is concerned about the traffic, however he can support the project. Planning Commission Minutes December 16, 2015 Page 5 Commissioner L'Heureux thanked the applicant for designing the project. He stated he is also concerned with the traffic and is torn with the impacts from other potential projects. Commissioner L'Heureux stated that he can support the project. Commissioner Segall likes the campus nature of the project. He can support the project but he too has concerns with the cumulative traffic impacts. Chairperson Anderson stated she can support the project. MOTION ACTION: Motion by Commissioner Segall and duly seconded by Commissioner Black that the Planning Commission adopt Planning Commission Resolution No. 7138 recommending that the City Council certify the Environmental Impact Report EIR 15- 2, including the approval of Candidate Findings of Fact and a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program, and adopt Planning Commission Resolutions No. 7139, 7140, 7141, 7142, and 7143, recommending approval of General Plan Amendment GPA 14-03, Zone Change ZC 14-02, Local Coastal Program Amendment LCPA 14- 3, Specific Plan Amendment SP 207(K), Carlsbad Tract Map 14-08, Non- Residential Planned Development Permit PUD 15-01, Site Development Plan SDP 14-11, Conditional Use Permit CUP 15-03, Coastal Development Permit CDP 14-29, and Hillside Development Permit 14-06 based on the findings and subject to the conditions contained therein including the errata sheet dated December 16, 2015, VOTE: 5-0 AYES: Chairperson Anderson, Commissioner Black, Commissioner L'Heureux, Commissioner Montgomery and Commissioner Segall NOES: None ABSENT: Commissioner Siekmann ABSTAIN: None Chairperson Anderson closed the public hearing on Agenda Item 2 and called for 10 minute recess. RECESS Chairperson Anderson called for a 10 minute recess at 7:48 p.m. MEETING CALLED TO ORDER Chairperson Anderson called the meeting to order at 8:00 p.m. with all Commissioners present. Chairperson Anderson asked Mr. Neu to introduce the next item and opened the public hearing on Agenda Item 3. 3. RP 92-10(A)/CDP 92-08(A) — BLUEWATER GRILL — Request for a recommendation of approval of a Major Review Permit Amendment and Coastal Development Permit Amendment to add 2,049 square feet of interior restaurant space and a 1,202 square foot outdoor dining area to an existing 3,346 square foot restaurant and participation in the Parking In-Lieu Fee Program for 21 parking spaces. The 0.19-acre project site is addressed as 417 Carlsbad Village Drive, and located within Land Use District 1, Carlsbad Village Center, of the Village Review (V-R) Zone and Local Facilities Management Zone 1. The project qualifies as a CEQA Guidelines Section 15332 (In-Fill Development Projects) Class 32 Categorical Exemption. This project is not located within the appealable area of the California Coastal Commission. Mr. Neu introduced Agenda Item 3 and stated Assistant Planner Chris Garcia would make the staff presentation. Mr. Garcia gave a brief presentation and stated he would be available to answer any questions. ffCityof Carlsbad Memorandum January 26, 2016 To: City Council, via Kathy Dodson, City Manager From: Christer Westman, Senior Planner Via Don Neu, City Planner Re: Errata Sheet for Agenda Item # 9 - EIR 15-02/GPA 14-03/ZC 14-02/LCPA 14- 03/SP 207(K)/CT 14-08/PUD 15-01/SDP 14-11/CUP 15-03/CDP 14-29/HDP 14-06 — WESTIN HOTEL AND TIMESHARE Staff is recommending that the City Council include the following revisions to the Final Environmental Impact Report (FEIR) for the Westin Hotel and timeshare project. 1. Edits to pages 10-12 shown in strikeout/underline text to the Findings of Fact that reflect the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program measures CR-1, CR-21 and CR-3 as proposed. 2. Addition of a letter presented by the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians to the Planning commission regarding the Westin Hotel and Timeshare project and Environmental Impact Report. The addition includes a response to the letter and its inclusion into the Final Environmental Impact Report as Letter D. Community & Economic Development Planning Division 1635 Faraday Avenue I Carlsbad, CA 92008 I 760-602-4600 I 760-602-8560 fax 1310-2 requires: either construction shall occur outside the coastal California gnatcatcher breeding season (between March 15 and August 15), or U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) protocol pre-construction nest surveys shall be conducted and nest avoidance measures shall be implemented if nests are found. For coastal California gnatcatcher avoidance measures, a qualified acoustician must complete a study showing that noise generated by construction activities will not exceed 60 A-weighted decibels (dB(A)) hourly average at the edge of occupied habitat prior to construction, and take of active nests shall be prohibited. Rationale and Conclusion Impacts to raptors, migratory, nesting birds, or coastal California gnatcatcher would be mitigated through implementation of BIO-1 and. B10-2, which require grading and construction to occur outside the bird breeding season. If grading must occur during the breeding/nesting season, pre-construction surveys would be required to determine absence or presence. If present, appropriate buffers would be implemented to avoid direct impacts. Measure B10-2 would further require noise analysis and monitoring to ensure that noise levels do not exceed 60 dB(A) hourly equivalent sound level (Le) within 500 feet of habitat occupied by the coastal California gnatcatcher. A fenced protective buffer and supervision by a qualified biologist would also be required. Project impacts to sensitive wildlife would be mitigated to below a level of significance. Implementation of these mitigation measures is assured through their incorporation into the project's MNIRP. Reference: Final EIR Section 4.4.3. Cultural Resources Archaeological Resources Potentially Significant Effect The project site contains portions of a significant archaeological site, CA-SDI-8797 Locus C, which was previously capped in conjunction with a prior project and. includes a subsurface archaeological deposit and human burial(s). Development of the project site would result in some disturbance to CA-SDI-8797 Locus C; however, impacts to known human burials would be avoided. Disturbance of CA-SDI-8797 Locus C would be considered a significant impact. In addition, project grading could result in significant impacts to currently unknown and buried prehistoric/archaeological resources on-site. Facts in Support of Finding The project's potentially significant impacts to the capped portion of CA-SDI-8797 Locus C would be avoided to the maximum extent practicable through the use of an alternative foundation design that would allow the structure in the location of CA-SDI-8797 Locus C to essentially float over the ground surface by transferring the weight of the structure deep -10- into the earth by installing concrete piles, or caissons. The structure would require 47 caissons to support the hotel foundation, and each caisson would require disturbance of an approximately 1 meter x 1 meter section of earth. Additionally, installation of the elevator pit and basement area would require penetration of the capped portion of CA-SDI-8797 Locus C, which would be a potentially significant impact. Implementation of the data recovery program as detailed in ARC 1 CR-2 would ensure that any cultural material present in the area of SDI-8797 Locus C would be recovered and reburied within the project site to retain the cultural value of the resource on-site. The data recovery program would could include hand excavation of 100 percent of the material extracted from the 1 meter x 1 meter test units for each caisson; data recovery of the basement and elevator pit at a minimum of 15 percent of the excavated material, up to 100 percent of the excavated material depending on the extent of cultural materials encountered during data recovery for caissons; and additional, data recovery within the fenced area around the water tank that has never been subject to subsurface archaeological testing. Implementation of ARC 1 CR-2 would ensure that the research potential of the site has been exhausted and that any cultural material encountered during data recovery would be identified and reburied within the on-site open space easement to preserve cultural material within the site. The project's potentially significant impacts to currently unknown and buried prehistoric/archaeological resources on-site would be mitigated through implementation of mitigation measure ARC 2 CR-1. Specifically, ARC 2 CR4 is require° the preparation of a monitoring plan and includes the presence of the Archaeological Monitor and Native American Monitor from the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians during grading/exca.vatMn/ trenching activities that could result in impacts to archaeological cultural resources as identified in the monitoring plan. Prior to any construction permits, the City shall verify that the requirements for archaeological monitoring and Native American monitoring have been noted on the appropriate construction plans. The Qualified Archaeologist and Native American Monitor shall attend any grading/excavation-related preconstruction meetings to make comments and/or suggestions concerning the archaeological monitoring program. Included in this mitigation. measure is the requirement that the Archaeological Monitor shall document field. activity and if a discovery is made, the monitors shall divert construction activities from the area of discovery. After following the identified protocol to determine significance, either a data recovery program shall be implemented for significant resources or less than significant artifacts shall be collected.; curated, and documented in the Final Monitoring Report. If human remains are discovered, work shall stop in that area, and the procedures as set forth in the California Public Resources Code (Sec. 5097.98) and State Health and Safety Code (Sec. 7050.5) shall be followed. Additional details of this mitigation measure are included in Section 4.4.4.3 of the Final EIR. -11- Mitigation measure ARC 3 CR-3 would provide protection in perpetuity through an open apace a cultural conservation easement for the known archaeological resources on-site. While the project would impact a portion of CA-SDI-8797 Locus C through installation of caissons and a basement and elevator pit, the majority of this site would remain undisturbed. Measure ARC 3 CR-3 would ensure that no further disturbance to the archaeological site would occur after project construction. Rationale and Conclusion The actions making up mitigation measure ARC 1 CR-2 identified in Section 4.4.4.3 of the Final EIR assure the recovery and recording of important prehistoric/archaeological information, which may otherwise be lost during construction of the proposed project. The requirements of ARC 2 CR-1 ensure that an Archaeological Monitor and Native American Monitor from the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians would be present for all grading activities and assure that grading shall be halted or diverted should any discovery be made. In the event that a discovery of prehistoric or archaeological resources occurs during grading for the proposed project, the determination of significance shall be made and the mitigation measure outlined in the Final EIR shall be implemented. ARC 3 CR-3 would provide protection in perpetuity for the known archaeological resources on-site (CA-SDI- 8797 Locus C). These mitigation measures would reduce potentially significant impacts to archaeological resources to a less than significant level. Implementation of these mitigation measures are assured through their incorporation into the project's MMRP. Reference: Final EIR Section 4.4.4 Paleontological Resources Potentially Significant Effect The project site is underlain by Santiago Formation and Lindavista Formation, which have high and moderate paleontological resource sensitivity, respectively. Project grading would involve cut and removal of approximately 14,610 cubic yards of material; as a result, there is a potential for grading to destroy buried fossil remains, resulting in a significant impact to paleontological resources. Facts in Support of Finding The project's potentially significant impacts to paleontological resources will be mitigated to below a level of significance with implementation of the mitigation measure identified in Section 4.4.6.3 of the Final EIR. Implementation of the mitigation measure PAL-1 shall require paleontological monitoring requirements to be noted on the appropriate construction plans, a monitoring plan be prepared prior to the start of construction to identify areas that shall be monitored, and presence of a paleontological monitor on-site during grading. In the event of a discovery, grading activities in the area of discovery are required to stop. The resource is required to be studied so that a determination of -12- Letters of Comment and Responses Westin Hotel and Timeshare Project Final EIR Letters of Comment and Responses The following letters of comment were received from agencies, organizations, and individuals during the Public Review period (July 29 through September 11, 2015) of the Draft EIR.

Consultations occurred September 25, 2015 and October 20, 2015 and on multiple other occasions. The revised project design and revised mitigation measures for archeological resource impacts were the outcome of consultation. At the consultations referenced above, the project applicant presented an alternative foundation design for the hotel that would avoid significant impacts to known hum an remains and minimize adverse impacts to CA-SDI-8797 Locus C. Thus, the project has been redesigned to avoid impacts to the known Native American burial on the project site. As an alternative to a typical shallow foundation system, a deep foundation system known as Cast-In-Drilled Hole (CIDH) Pile foundation is proposed, which would completely avoid impacts to known human remains and would significantly reduce the amount of disturbance to the capped portion of CA-SDI-8797 Locus C. The pile foundation system would support the structure so that it "floats" above the ground surface and transfers the weight of the structure deep into the earth by means of the concrete piles, or caissons. With implementation of this alternative foundation system, the project would avoid and preserve in place all known human remains. B-2 As described in response B-1 above, the foundation system for the hotel has been redesigned so the project would avoid and preserve in place all known human remains. Thus, mitigation measure ARC-3, Recovery of Known Human Buri4 is no longer required. The City conferred with representatives from the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians, as the Most Likely Descendant (MLD) regarding the proposed project redesign and avoidance of known human remains. The proposed foundation design and mitigation plan to address potentially significant impacts to human remains was also refined with input from tribal representatives.

I wish in continent on the Draft Environmental Impact Report (DEM) for the Westin Hotel end Timeshare with respect to the known Native American burial site on this project and Native American cultural resources in general. The mitigation measures proposed regarding the known Native American burial are not in compliance with CEQA Guidelines section 15064.5, subdivisions (d) and (c) and will result in the disinterment of previously reintorred Native American remains, the-reinter/neat of which was Intended ass mitigation measure for the construction of the Carlsbad Municipal Golf Course. As a trustee agency for Native American cultural resources under CEQA,I the NAFIC would welcome the opportunity to work with the City of Carlsbad and the applicant to protect Site burial site and all Native American culturel resources affected by this project. As a. matter or the.NAHC opposes the disinterment of previously reinterred-NatIve American remains without the consent of the Most Likely Descendant (MLD). especially When thc remains were previously disturbed and then reinterred as a mitigation measure. The NAI-IC also proposes avoidance and preservation in place as thefint and second options to be considered before mitigation and would ask that the applicant and the City of Carlsbad consider these options fully and thoughtfully. The NAFIC's comments are as follows: I. Millgodun,MeasareARC-3: Recoyerysficommpgrint Mitigation Measure ARC-3: Recovery-of Known Burial states ao a potential significant impact the fact that the project site contains a known human burial that was discovered and I See Environmental Protection Inlinwratten Center (P.P1C) i Janneon (1985) 170 Cal•APP3d 604; see generally Koski' and Zischke, Practice under the Cal(fornia Eneirmintental Quality jltt (2015) (CEB) 20.101("Ifs project is located on &site containing an archaeological site, the Native American Ficritngc Commission is a trustee agency that must be consulted by the lead agency in-connection with the preparation of an EIR or negative declaration.") B-1 B-2 Planning Division Re: LETTER RESPONSE Westin Hotel and Timeshare EIR Page RTC-4 reinterred during grading for the Carlsbad Municipal Golf Course, and that project grading and development is anticipated to require disturbance and relocation of these known remains in coordination with the Most Likely Descendant. It also states as a potential significant impact the fact that there is a potential 1hr unknown human remains to be uncovered during project grading and these impacts would be potentially significant The mitigation measure states that excavations would be conducted, and the goal of the excavations would be to locate, pedestal and remove the burial on a block of soil and relocate the burial to on off-site location approved by the MD. Nowhere in this mitigation measure is it stated that the MW for this known burial, the San Lids Rey Band of Mission Indians (SLR), has agreed to the disinterment and reburial of this known burial, because SLR has not consented to the disinterment. Under CEQA Guidelines section 15064.5 (d) and (e), and in the absence of avoidance, the failure to work with SLR to reach an agreement as to treatment and disposition of this known burial leaves the projeet applicant with one and only one option should the remains be disturbed: To reinter any remains Tube property in an area where them Will be no further subsurface disturbance. which was the goal of the previous reintennent. The ambiguity of the term "off-site" does not connote compliance with CEQA Guidelines section 15064.5, subdivisions (d) and (e) and raises the legal issue whether remains that were intended to be reinterred in an area without ftaure subsurface disturbance can be disinterred without the MLD'S consent. The NAHC doubts that SLR would have agreed to the prior reinterment if they had known they would have to disturb the resettle place of their ancestors yet again. CEQA Guidelines section 15064.5, subdivision (d) provides in relevant part: (d) When an initial study identities the existence of, or the probable likelihood, of Native American human remains within the project, the lead agency shall work with the appropriate Native Americans as identified by the Native American Heritage Commission as provided in Public Resources Code section 5097.98. The applicant may develop en agreement for treating or disposing of, with appropriate dignity, the human remains and any items associated with Native American burials with the appropriate Native Americans as identified by the Native American Heritage Commission. ... CEQA Guidelines section 15064.5, subdivision (e) provides: (e) In the event of the accidental discovery or recognition of any human remains in any location other than a dedicated cemetery, the following steps should be taken: (I) There shall be no further excavation or disturbance of the site or any nearby arcs reasonably suspemed to overlie adjacent human remains until: (A)The coroner of the county in which the remains are discovered must be contacted to determine that no investigation of the cause of death is reqtrired: and (L3) If the coroner determines the remains to be Native American: 2 B-2 cont. B-2 (continued) Mitigation measure ARC-2 has been revised to specifically refer to the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians as the appropriate Native American monitor during construction. Additionally, a new mitigation measure ARC-3 is proposed that would require dedication of an open space easement over the cultural resources on-site and would prohibit any future disturbance to the known human remains and capped portions of CA-SDI-8797 Locus C. In the event unknown buried human remains are encountered during grading for the project site, those human remains would be handled in accordance with all applicable guidance and regulations and would be reinterred on-site as requested during consultations with the NILD. LETTER RESPONSE Westin Hotel and Timeshare EIR Page RTC-5 B-3 B-2 I. The coroner shall contact the Native American Heritage Commission within 24 hours. COWL 2, The Native American Heritage Commission shall identilY the person or persons it believes to be the most likely descended from the deceased Native American. 3. The most likely descendant may make recommendations to the landowner or the person responsible for the excavation work, for means of treating or disposing, with appropriate dignity, the human remains and any associated move goods as, provided in Public Resources Code section 5097.98, or (2) Where the following conditions occur, the landowner or his authorized representative shall rebury the Native American human remains and associated grave goods with appropriate dignity on the property in a location not subject to further subsurface disturbance. (A) The Native American Heritage Commission is unable to identify a most likely descendant or the most likely descendant failed to make a recommendation within 24 hours of being notified by the commission. (13) The descendant identified rails to make a recommendation; or (C) The landowner or his authorized representative rejects the recommendation of the descendant, and the mediation by the Native American Heritage Commission fails to provide measures acceptable to the landowner. Nothing . in CEQA Guidelines section 15064.5 contemplates the unilateral disinterment of a known Native Atneriffan burial by an applicant without the consent of the MLD. Given the potential for finding more burials in the urea of the known burial, in the absence of some agreement with SLR, the mitigation measure is insufficient to mitigate impacts to the known burial and what could be a Native American cemetery. Additionally, given that the previous reintennent of remains was supposed to mitigate previous impacts caused by the construction of the Carlsbad Municipal Golf Course, the idea that any known Native American reinterments should be disinterred whenever a new project is proposed for a site where a reinterment was a mitigation measure is objectionable on both a legal and moral basis, especially given the dictate that a reintennent of Native American human ternains is to be in a site where there should be no further subsurface disturbance. The NM-IC recommends that the applicant enter into it treatment and disposition agreement with SLR. B-3 2. Mitigation Measure ARC -I: _pate Recovery Program Mitigation. Measure ARC-I contemplates data recovery as mitigation for artifacts found in the sante area as the known burial. The determination as to what artifacts are associated grave goods should be made by the MLD, and there should be some means of resolving conflicts regarding what are or are not associated grave goods, us the MLD has tribal knowledge and a significant role in determining the treatment and disposition of associated grave goods under caw Guidelines section 150645 (d) and (c). 3 The project includes mitigation measure ARC-1, which details the data recovery plan for project impacts to CA-SDI-8797 Locus C. This mitigation measure was revised from the Draft EIR version after consultation with the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians. This measure reflects reduced impacts to CA-SDI-8797 Locus C as a result of the use of an alternative foundation system as detailed in Response B-1. At the request of the tribes, the project mitigation would require that any cultural materials encountered during data recovery be reburied on-site within the proposed open space easement to preserve cultural materials in place. This would include any grave goods that may be encountered. Implementation of mitigation measure ARC-2 for archaeological monitoring requires the use of a Native American monitor who will be present to observe any cultural materials found and identify their cultural significance. LETTER RESPONSE Westin Hotel and Timeshare EIR Page RTC-6 B-4 The portion of mitigation measure ARC-2 that required controlled grading has been removed from the Final EIR. Controlled grading to rind the human burial(s) is no longer required because the project has been redesigned with an alternative foundation system that would avoid impacts to known human burials and would minimize impacts to the cultural site. One hundred percent hand excavation and. data recovery would occur in the location of caisson excavations, and 15 percent or greater data recovery would be required in. the location of the elevator pit and basement excavations as detailed in the project's Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program. Tribal monitors would be present to monitor all excavations on-site and would have the authority to halt operations if materials are identified as detailed in the updated mitigation measure ARC-2, which requires archaeological monitoring. B-5 This is a concluding paragraph. As discussed in response to comments B-1 through B-4 and detailed in the Final EIR Errata and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program, the foundation of the hotel has been redesigned to avoid impacts to known Native American burials. The City has worked closely with the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians to identify a compromise solution that would provide the minimum amount of disturbance to the on-site cultural resources. 3. Midlatipn Measure ARC-2: Arehaeplogical Monitoring Program B-4 Mitigation Measure ARC-2 provides under section A5, proVides: In areas within the area of potential effect where significant deposits have been identified, controlled grading may be implemented to carethlly peel away layers of soil, which would expose features of human remains with minimal damage, The consulting archaeologist, in conjunction with the Native American monitors, shall deteimine when and where the controlled grading is needed. The pace, depth, and location of' the controlled grading protocol will be made in concert with tribal monitors, but it will ultimately be the responsibility of the consulting archaeologist. The NAHC would propose that the pace, depth and location of the controlled grading protocol be with the ;pascal of tribal monitors, as their unique tribal knowledge regarding the site should be respected in protecting the Native American burials that could potentially be discovered, What makes this particularly disturbing is the fact that this burial was known to or should have B-5 been known to the City of Carlsbad before leasing the property in question. Native Americans should not be required to rebury their ancestors every time a new project comes along on a parcel with a known Native American burial. No other culture would he required to repeatedly rcbuty their ancestors. That's not mitigation; that's desecration. Yo rs very. truly, o p eel , f4 Terri° L.

Therefore, our comments cannot extend to the details of the 2015 work on SD1-8797, Locus C, by Brian F. Smith & Associates. C-2 (2) Section 4.4 of the DE1R, Cultural and Paleontological Resources, is comprehensive and well thought out. We concur with the impact analysis and with the mitigation measures as proposed. 0-3 (3) his unfortunate that the project applicants either chose to ignore the information available, or failed to do a due-diligence cultural resources study of the property before deciding to proceed with a proposed development that would impact a portion of a site which (a) Was capped only about 10 years ago to protect it, presentably in perpetuity, and (b) Was deemed potentially eligible for the National Register of Historic Places, and (c) Obviously holds particular cultural sensitivity due to the known burial on the site. The proposed project disrespects both the cultural and scientific values of Locus C of 801-8797. P.O. Box 81106 San Diego, CA 92138-1108 WO 538-0935 Comment noted. Comment noted. As described in the responses to Comment Letter B, the project has been redesigned since public review of the Draft EIR to maximize avoidance to CA-SDI-8797 Locus C and to avoid impacts to known Native American burial(s) on the project site. This has been achieved through use of an alternative foundation design, which would support the hotel structure so that it "floats" above the ground surface and transfers the weight of the structure deep into the earth by means of the concrete piles, or caissons. With implementation of this alternative foundation system, the project would avoid and. preserve in place all known human remains and would avoid disturbance to approximately 80 percent of CA-SDI- 8797 Locus C. The City recognizes and respects the cultural sensitivity of the project site and has worked closely with the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians to arrive at a solution that would protect the on-site cultural resources to the maximum extent practical. The project would implement the alternative foundation design for the hotel structure, data recovery for areas of CA-SDI-8797 Locus C that would be disturbed by the project, additional subsurface archaeological testing in areas that have never been tested (around the water tank), and implementation of an open space easement to protect the on-Site cultural resources from further disturbance. These revised mitigation measures would further reduce impacts to cultural resources and avoid impacts to human burials.

C, which was included in a previous cap prc,-,icucly capped. in conjunction with a prior project and includes a subsurface archaeological deposit and human burial(s). Capping of a site associated with a subsurface archaeological deposit often sigMfies that the site is part of a mitigation requirement to preserve the area from future disturbance: however, the previous capping of this site was not part of a requirement to preserve the site. The previous project archaeologist requested that the cemented area be placed within an open space easement however, City staff indicated to him that. while no future uses of the area were known at the tune the City was not prepared_ to place the site in an open space easement as the pad was being created for future development Only a small portion of the capped site was known to have cultural or archaeological resources: however a cap was put in place to cover the entirety Locus.

The proposed Westin Hotel and: Timeshare project includes a General Plan Amendment, Zone Change and Local Coastal Program Amendment:to change the property land use category to Visitor Carnmercial NC) and the zoning to Commercial Tourist with a Qualified Overlay (C-T-Q). Development of the project would include removal of an existing municipal 1,500,000-gallon water tank, grading, and the subsequent development of a four-story, 81,200-square-foot 71-roam hotel building, and a four-story, 62,680-Square- foot 16-unit timeshare building with an underground garage. The hotel structure would be constructed using an alternative foundation system known as Cast-In-Drilled Hole (CI-DH) Pile foundation in order to minimize potential impacts to cultural resources. The project site is *located on two parcels totaling 3.14 acres in addition to 0.55 acre of Adjacent off-site areas. The Final EIR focuses on issues determined to be potentially Significant by the City including aesthetics; air quality; biological resources; cultural and paleontological resources; greenhouse gas emissions; hazardous materials, airport safety, and wildfire; hydrology and Water quality; land use; noise; public set-Vices; transportation and circulation; and utilities and service systems. Agricultural resources, geology and:soils, Mineral resources, and population and housing were addressed in lesser detail in Chapter 8, Effects Found Not to be Significant. After analysis, potentially significant impacts requiring Mitigation were identified for land use (Multiple Habitat CanServation Plan/Habitat Management Plan consistency), biological resources, cultural resources, and paleontological resources. The environmental analysis concluded that the potentiafiy-signifitant impacts associated with land use, (Molt* Habitat Conservation Plan/Habitat Management Plan consistency), biological resources, cultural resources, and paleontological resources could be avoided or reduced through implementation of recommended mitigation measures-.

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE Mayor Matt Hall 1200 Carlsbad Village Dr. Carlsbad, CA 92008 Members of the Carlsbad City Council RE: Carlsbad Chamber of Commerce support for the Westin Hotel project My name is Ted Owen. I am the President and CEO of the Carlsbad Chamber of Commerce and I am here in support of the Westin Hotel project before you tonight. Grand Pacific Resorts a Carlsbad based hotel and time share company is a top of the line hospitality corporation that employs hundreds of workers, and pays millions of dollars in sales and transient occupancy taxes each year. In addition to the taxes Grand Pacific Resorts participates in dozens of civic and community events annually both as a host and sponsor. Without the Grand Pacific Resorts support many worthwhile organizations would not prosper and fulfill their mission. This chamber has held dozens of events with Grand Pacific entities that have showcased not only the Chamber but the city as thousands of guests attend events at the company's many properties located in Carlsbad. Now they are before you seeking approval to build a world class Westin Hotel on a 3.7 acre bluff overlooking the Pacific Ocean. A world class corporation with your support will add another jewel in the Carlsbad Hospitality industry. The Grand Pacific Resorts is a premier Carlsbad company and I am proud to support without reservation the Westin Hotel project on behalf of the Carlsbad Chamber of Commerce and its 1,400 member companies.
