MINOR COASTAL DEVELOPMENl PERMIT
NOTICE OF DECISION
RE: CDP 2021-0063 (DEV2021-0111)-FLAMMER LOT LINE ADJUSTMENT
. {'cityof
Carlsbad
The city has completed a review of the application for a Minor Coastal Development Permit for a lot line
adjustment between two parcels located at 2943 Jefferson Street.
It is the City Planner's determination that the project CDP 2017-0065-FLAMMER LOT LINE ADJUSTMENT
is consistent with the city's applicable Coastal Development Regulations (Chapters 21.201 -21.205) and
with all other applicable city ordinances and policies. The City Planner, therefore, APPROVES this request
based upon the following:·
1. That the total cost of the proposed development is less than $60,000.
2. That the proposed development requires no discretionary approvals other than a Minor Coastal
Development Permit.
3. That the development is in conformity with the public access and public recreation policies of Chapter
3 of the Coastal Act, in that no public opportunities for coastal access are available from the subject
site, nor are public recreation areas required of the project as the pr9perty is not located adjacent
to the shore. Therefore, the lot line adjustment will not interfere with the public's right to physical
access or water-oriented recreational activities.
4. The proposed development will have no adverse effect on coastal resources, in that the location of
the property is not immediately adjacent to any body of water, and the existing lots are already
considered disturbed, each developed with an existing single-family residence. The reconfiguration
of the lot lines will continue to be legal and conforming in size following the completion of the lot
line adjustment. The project will not result in a greater number of residential lots than existed prior
to the lot line adjustment.
5. That the proposed development is in conformance with the Mello II Segment of the Certified Local
Coastal Program and all applicable policies in that the site is designated for residential uses in that the
site is designated as Village (V -B) which allows for residential development, including a single-
family residence and any ancillary structures. The lot line adjustment does not include any new

development (e.g., structures, walls, grading) <?r alterations to the existing onsite conditions. The
existing lots are already considered disturbed, each developed with an e~isting single-family
residence. Both lots involved in the lot line adjustment are conforming in size in their existing
configuration and will continue to be conforming in size as a result of the adjustment.
6. The project is consistent with the provisions of the Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone (Chapter
21.203 of the Zoning Ordinance) in that the lot line adjustment does not include any development
or grading; therefore, does not contribute to urban run-off, pollutants and/or soil eros.ion. The lot
line adjustment will not impact native vegetation or natural steep slopes greater than a 25 percent
gradient.
7. That the request for a minor coastal development permit was adequately noticed at least ten {10)
working days before the date of this decision pursuant to Section 21.201.080(8) and (C) of the
Carlsbad Coastal Development Regulations.
8. That the City Planner has determined ·that the project is exempt from the requirements of the
California Environmental Quality Act {CEQA) per Section 153O5(a) '.""' Minor Alterations in Land Use
Limitations of the State CEQA Guidelines and will not have any adverse significant impact on the
environment.
9. The City Planner has reviewed each of the exactions imposed on the Developer contained in this
resolution, and hereby finds, in this case, that the exactions are imposed to mitigate impacts caused
by or reasonably related to the project, and the extent and the degree of the exaction is in rough
proportionality to the impact caused by the project.
