CASE NAME: SWAN RESIDENCE
CASE NO: CDP 2021-0025/V 2021-0001 (DEV2021-0100)
WHEREAS, Chris and Crista Swan, "Developer/Owner," has filed a verified application with the
City of Carlsbad regarding property described as:
Lot 82 and the southwesterly 5 feet of Lot 89 of Granville Park No. 2, in
the City of Carlsbad, County of San Diego, State of California, according
to map No. 2037, filed in the office of the County Recorder of San Diego
County June 18, 1927
("the Property"); and
WHEREAS, said verified application constitutes a request for a Coastal Development Permit and
Minor Variance as shown on Exhibit(s) "A" -"L" dated May 18, 2022, attached hereto and on file in the
Carlsbad Planning Division, CDP 2021-0025/V 2021-0001 -SWAN RESIDENCE, as provided in Chapters
21.50 and 21.201 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Division studied the Coastal Development Permit and Minor Variance
applications and performed the necessary investigations to determine if the project qualified for an
exemption from further environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act, (CEQA,
Public Resources Code section 21000 et. seq .), and its implementing regulations (the State CEQA
Guidelines), Article 14 of the California Code of Regulations section 15000 et. seq . After consideration of
all evidence presented, and studies and investigations made by the city planner and on its behalf, the city
planner determined that the project was exempt from further environmental review pursuant to State
CEQA Guidelines sections 15301(1) -Existing Facilities; 15303(a) -New Construction or Conversion of
Small Structures; and 15305(a) -Minor Alterations in Land Use Limitations. These exceptions are for (1)
the demolition and removal of small structures, including one single-family residence and accessory
structures such as garages, carports, patios, swimming pools and fences; (2) the construction of one-single
residence in a residential zone, including accessory (appurtenant) structures such as garages, carports,
patios, swimming pools and fences; and (3) side yard and setback variances in areas with an average slope
of less 20 percent, which do not result in any changes in land use or density, and furthermore do not result
in the creation of any new parcels. The project will not have a significant effect on the environment and
all the requirements of CEQA have been met; and
WHEREAS, on Mar. 9, 2022, the city distributed a notice of intended decision to adopt the
"Existing Facilities; New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures; and Minor Alterations in Land
Use Limitations" exemptions. The notice was circulated for a 10-day period, which began on Mar. 9, 2022
and ended on Mar. 20, 2022. The city did not receive any comment letters on the CEQA findings and
determination. The effective date and order of the city planner CEQA determination was Mar. 20, 2022;
and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission did, on May 18, 2022, hold a duly noticed public hearing as
prescribed by law to consider said request;
WHEREAS, at said public hearing, upon hearing and considering all testimony and arguments, if
any, of all persons desiring to be heard, said Commission considered all factors relating to the Coastal
Development Permit and Minor Variance.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED by the Planning Commission of the City of Carlsbad,
as follows:
A) That the above recitations are true and correct.
B) That based on the evidence presented at the public hearing, the Commission APPROVES
CDP 2021-0025/V 2021-0001 -SWAN RESIDENCE, based on the following findings and
subject to the following conditions:
Findings:
Coastal Development Permit
PC RESO NO. 7447 -2-
1. That the proposed development is in conformance with the Certified Local Coastal Program and
all applicable policies in that the site is designated for residential development, and the project
proposes the demolition of an existing one-story single-family residence to construct a new
two-story single-family residence with mezzanine and an attached garage. The development is
consistent with the LCP Mello II R-15 land use designation. No agricultural activities, sensitive
resources, geological instability, flood hazard or coastal access opportunities exist onsite. Given
that the project is located in a residential neighborhood where the majority of dwellings are
one-and two-stories with an occasional three-story structure, the construction of a new two-
story single-family residence with a mezzanine will not obstruct views of the coastline as seen
from public lands or public right-of-way, nor otherwise damage the visual beauty of the Coastal
Zone.
2. The proposal is in conformity with the public access and recreation policies of Chapter 3 of the
Coastal Act in that the property is not located adjacent to the coastal shore; therefore, it will
not interfere with the public's right to physical access or water-oriented recreational activities.
3. The project is consistent with the provisions of the Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone
(Chapter 21.203 of the Zoning Ordinance) in that the project will adhere to the city's Master
Drainage Plan, Grading Ordinance, Storm Water Ordinance, BMP Design Manual and
Jurisdictional Runoff Management Program (JRMP) to avoid increased urban runoff, pollutants,
and soil erosion. No steep slopes (equal to or greater than 25% gradient) or native vegetation
is located on the subject property and the site is not located in an area prone to landslides, or
susceptible to accelerated erosion, floods or liquefaction.
Minor Variance
4. That because of special circumstances applicable to the subject property, including size, shape,
topography, location or surroundings, the strict application of the zoning ordinance deprives such
property of privileges enjoyed by other property in the vicinity and under identical zoning
classification in that the subject lot is considered substandard at 3,748 square feet, which is
approximately 50 percent of the 7,500-square-foot minimum lot size for the R-3 zone. The lot
was legally created more than 95 years ago and is one of the smaller lots within the subdivision
and surrounding area. The strict application of the zoning ordinance requiring residential
buildings to be 20 feet from the front and 10 feet from the rear property lines physically
constrains or constricts development onsite from satisfying current development standards.
Additionally, the configuration of the substandard lot is considered shallow (75 feet) when a
typical lot in the R-3 zone is approximately 125 feet in depth, furthering the deprivation for
future development. Furthermore, without approval of the minor variance, the applicant could
not achieve a similar building footprint and square footage enjoyed by other properties located
within the subdivision and surrounding neighborhood.
5. That the minor variance shall not constitute a grant of special privileges inconsistent with the
limitations upon other properties in the vicinity and zone in which the subject property is located
and is subject to any conditions necessary to assure compliance with this finding in that the
surrounding neighborhood consists of substandard lot sizes and developed properties that
generally do not meet the current R-3 development standards. Most of the surrounding lots
have been developed in a way that does not meet at least one of the current required
development standards of the R-3 zone. Deviations on other lots include front yard, rear yard,
and side yard setback reductions and reduced off-street covered parking requirements. Many
other properties in the neighborhood were originally built with reduced front, side, and rear
PC RESO NO. 7447 -3-
yard setbacks. Minor variances for setback reductions have been granted to other properties in
the same zone and vicinity. Therefore, the minor variance is not considered a grant of special
privilege. Overall, the proposed front yard setback reduction to 15 feet and rear yard setback
reduction to eight feet four inches are similar to other nearby properties within the
neighborhood.
6. That the minor variance does not authorize a use or activity which is not otherwise expressly
authorized by the zone regulation governing the subject property in that the granting of a minor
variance to reduce the required front yard setback from 20 feet to 15 feet and the rear yard
setback from 10 feet to eight feet four inches does not authorize a use which is not otherwise
expressly permitted by the zoning regulations. A one-family dwelling is allowed by right within
the Multiple-Family Residential (R-3) zone. Therefore, a deviation from the setback standards
does not authorize a use or activity which is not authorized by the zone.
7. That the minor variance is consistent with the general purpose and intent of the general plan and
any applicable specific or master plans in that the project consists of a new single-family home
with a two-car garage. The proposed use is expressly authorized by the Zoning Ordinance and
General Plan regulations governing the subject property. The granting of a minor variance for
front yard and rear yard setbacks to allow for the construction of a new home is consistent with
the general purpose and intent of the General Plan for the R-15 Residential Land Use
designation.
8. The minor variance is consistent with the general purpose and intent of the certified local coastal
program and does not reduce or in any manner adversely affect the requirements for protection
of coastal resources in that the project consists of the construction of a new 3,348 square foot
single-family residence with an attached two-car car garage in an area designated for residential
development. The proposed two-story, single-family residence with mezzanine is compatible
with the surrounding development of one-and two-story single-family residences and the
occasional three-story structure. The two-story residence with mezzanine will not obstruct
views of the coastline as seen from public lands or the public right-of-way, nor otherwise
damage the visual beauty of the coastal zone. No agricultural uses or sensitive resources
currently exist on this previously graded and developed site. The proposed single-family
residence is not located in an area of known geologic instability or flood hazard. Given that the
site does not have frontage along the coastline, no public opportunities for coastal shoreline
access or water-oriented recreational activities are available from the subject site. Furthermore,
the subject property is a developed parcel that does not include steep slopes (equal to or
greater than 25% gradient), native vegetation, nor is it located in an area prone to landslides,
or susceptible to accelerated erosion, floods or liquefaction. Therefore, the granting of such
minor variance to construct a single-family residence will not adversely affect the Local Coastal
Program.
General
9. The Planning Commission finds that the project, as conditioned herein, is in conformance with the
Elements of the city's General Plan, in that the General Plan Land Use designation for the
property is R-15 Residential, and under Land Use Element Policy 2-P.7 one single-family dwelling
is permitted to be constructed on a legal lot that existed as of October 28, 2004. The subject lot
was legally created on June 18, 1927. Therefore, the existing single-family residence is
consistent with the Elements of the city's General Plan.
PC RESO NO. 7447 -4-
10. The project is consistent with the City-Wide Facilities and Improvements Plan, the Local Facilities
Management Plan for Zone 1 and all city public policies and ordinances. The project includes
elements or has been conditioned to construct or provide funding to ensu re that all facilities and
improvements regarding sewer collection and treatment; water; drainage; circulation; fire;
schools; parks and other recreational facilities; libraries; government administrative facilities; and
open space, related to the project will be installed to serve new development prior to or
concurrent with need. Specifically,
a. The project has been conditioned to provide proof from the Carlsbad Unified School District
that the project has satisfied its obligation for school facilities.
b. The Public Facility Fee is required to be paid by Council Policy No. 17 and will be collected
prior to the issuance of building permit.
11. That the project is consistent with the city's Landscape Manual and Water Efficient Landscape
Ordinance {Carlsbad Municipal Code Chapter 18.50).
12. The Planning Commission expressly declares that it would not have approved this Coastal
Development Permit and Minor Variance application to use the Property for completing and
implementing the project, except upon and subject to each and all of the conditions hereinafter
set, each and all of which shall run with the land and be binding upon the Developer and all
persons who use the Property for the use permitted hereby. For the purposes of the conditions,
the term "Developer" shall also include the project proponent, owner, permittee, applicant, and
any successor thereof in interest, as may be applicable. If the Developer fails to file a timely and
valid appeal of this Coastal Development Permit and Minor Variance within the applicable appeal
period, such inaction by the Developer shall be deemed to constitute all of the following on behalf
of the Developer:
a. Acceptance of the Coastal Development Permit and Minor Variance by the Developer; and
b. Agreement by the Developer to be bound by, to comply with, and to do all things required of
or by the Developer pursuant to all of the terms, provisions, and conditions of this Coastal
Development Permit and Minor Variance or other approval and the provisions of the
Carlsbad Municipal Code applicable to such permit.
13. The Planning Commission 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.
