Conditional Use Permit, CUP 2021-0014
2. 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 the project was
developed consistent with the local coastal program and general plan for the city, that has long
anticipated the project be developed consistent with the proposed Master Park Site Plan
Exhibit A that provides for a mix of improved recreation amenities and avoided open space.
3. 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 the project avoids or mitigates all impacts
to a level of less than significant, as outlined in the Mitigated Negative Declaration and Initial
Study. The proposed park is allowed in the Open Space zone through application and
conditions contained within the Conditional Use Permit and other permit findings.
4. 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 the size of this park allows the uses to be self contained and avoid impacts to the
neighborhoods to the west and the north. Faraday Avenue runs continuously along the
property to the south and the project is surrounded by open space to the south and east. The
parking study evaluated and determined that the on-and off-street parking supply is adequate
for the proposed uses contained on the site.
5. That the street system serving the proposed use is adequate to properly handle all traffic
generated by the proposed use, in that the Mitigated Negative Declaration conducted a study

Coastal Development Permit, CDP 2021-0052
6. That the proposed development is in conformance with the Certified Local Coastal Program and
all applicable policies in that it complies with the following policies in the Mello II segment of the
Local Coastal Program:
a. Policy 3-1: Environmentally Sensitive Habitat Areas {ESHAs): the project is consistent with
the Carlsbad HMP through issuance of an HMP Permit and avoids and mitigates all impacts.
Buffers are incorporated consistent with Policy 3-1.12 of the LCP.
b. Policy 3-4: Grading and Landscaping Requirements, stormwater BMPs are included in the
project design, minimizing impacts to water quality and to avoid ESHAs on the project site.
c. Policy 3-7: City Owned Lands Adjacent to Macario Canyon and Veterans Memorial Park,
project fully mitigates impacts, minimizes grading to the extent necessary to comply with
policies to provide public recreation uses on the "Veterans Memorial Park Development
Area" and through the Habitat Management Plan Permit proposes hardline revisions that
result in net increase of 9.5 acres of additional habitat.
d. Policy 4: Geologic, Floodplain, and Shoreline Hazard Areas. Project is consistent and
completed studies to determine no impacts due to grading project impacts to sensitive
habitat is limited to 1.05 acres, less than 10 percent of the 50.44 acres of sensitive habitat
on the site allowed in Policy 4-3 (b). Site design, construction best practices, and the projects
Stormwater plan are incorporated in the project design to show consistency under Policy 4-
5 (e) to avoid soil erosion or sediment impacts.
7. The proposal is in conformity with the public access and recreation policies of Chapter 3 of the
Coastal Act in that the project will not impede any public access to waterways, ocean front
land, or water-oriented activities; furthermore it will improve parking and public access to this
property within the Coastal Zone that offers sufficient on-and off-street parking for passive
and active recreation activities within the "Veterans Memorial Park Development Area" as
allowed under the city's Local Coastal Program.
8. 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. The Project will impact less than 10 percent of lands that are
greater than twenty-five percent slope and have endangered species or sensitive habitat.
Pursuant to LCP Policy 4-3 and CMC 21.203.040 (A) (1) (d) the encroachment into these areas
is allowed pursuant to the issuance of the Hillside Development Permit and Habitat
Management Plan Permit.

9. That hillside conditions have been properly identified on the constraints map which show
existing and proposed conditions and slope percentages.
10. That undevelopable areas of the project, i.e., slopes over 40%, have been properly identified on
the constraints map.
PC RESO NO. 7454 -4-
11. That the development proposal is consistent with the intent, purpose, and requirements of the
Hillside Ordinance, Chapter 21.95, in that the Project has been designed to maintain much of
the natural hillside character of the site by minimizing the amount of Project grading, by
incorporating contour grading into manufactured slopes, and by avoiding nearly all on-site
sensitive habitat and steep slope areas. Several areas require retaining walls that exceed 6'
vertical height; however, the retaining walls are necessary to construct city-wide multi-use
trails, to minimize impacts to the surrounding habitat areas, and to stay within acceptable
grading volumes.
12. That the proposed development or grading will not occur in the undevelopable portions of the
site pursuant to provisions of Section 21.53.230 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code, in that these
sites will be preserved as HMP hardline preserve consistent with the allowances of the
Conditional Use Permit, Coastal Development Permit, and Habitat Management Plan Permit.
13. That the project design substantially conforms to the intent of the concepts illustrated in the
Hillside Development Guidelines Manual, in that the project preserves and/or enhance the
aesthetic qualities of natural hillsides to the extent feasible and the manufactured slopes
incorporates contour grading. The proposed design minimizes the amount of project grading
through construction of the retaining walls.
14. That the proposed modification will result in significantly more open space or undisturbed area
than would a strict adherence to the requirements of the ordinance, in that the project impacts
0.11 acres that are both steep slope and sensitive habitats. Project design minimizes impacts
to habitat and grading, and results in a net increase of 9.505 acres of equal or better quality
habitat into the adjacent open space network.
Habitat Management Plan Permit, HOP 2021-0003
15. That authorization to impact sensitive habitats through the removal of 0.94 acres of Coastal Sage
Scrub, 0.01 acres of Southern maritime chaparral, 0.1 acres of Riparian Scrub, and 35.29 acres
of non-native grassland is subject to continuous compliance with all provisions of the Habitat
Management Plan for Natural Communities in the City of Carlsbad (HMP), the Citywide Incidental
Take Permit issued for the HMP, the Implementing Agreement, the Terms and Conditions of the
Incidental Take Permit, and the Biological Opinion.
16. That authorization to impact sensitive habitats is subject to continuous compliance with all
mitigation measures as stated in the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program and is
subject to all conditions contained in Planning Commission Resolutions No. 7453 for those other
approvals, including but not limited to recordation of conservation easements over all conserved
areas and management and monitoring in perpetuity by a qualified conservation entity.
17. That authorization to impact sensitive habitats is subject to continuous compliance with the
provisions of Volumes I, II and Ill of the Multiple Habitat Conservation Program and the Final
Environmental Impact Statement/Environmental Impact Report for Threatened and Endangered

18. That all impacts to habitat and all take of species will be incidental to otherwise lawful activities
related to construction and operation of the Veterans Memorial Park project.
PC RESO NO. 7454 -5-
19. That the project design as approved by the City of Carlsbad has avoided and minimized impacts
to wildlife habitat and species of concern to the maximum extent practicable. Specifically, the
site has been designed to concentrate most impacts to reduce impacts to sensitive habitat
areas and steep slopes, that the development maximizes use of habitats that are not sensitive,
and the major amendment results in a net gain of 9.505 acres of equivalent or better habitat
areas.
20. The project design and modification to the hardline preserve that results in a net gain of 9.505
acres of equivalent or better habitat is consistent with the requirements of Chapter 21.210.080
(A), and that through the process and letter received from the United States Fish and Wildlife
Service.

General
22.
23.
24.
The Planning Commission hereby finds that all development in Carlsbad benefits from the
Habitat Management Plan, which is a comprehensive conservation plan and implementation
program that will facilitate the preservation of biological diversity and provide for effective
protection and conservation of wildlife and plant species while continuing to allow compatible
development in accordance with Carlsbad's Growth Management Plan. Preservation of wildlife
habitats and sensitive species is required by the Open Space and Conservation Element of the
city's General Plan which provides for the realization of the social, economic, aesthetic and
environmental benefits from the preservation of open space within an increasingly urban
environment. Moreover, each new development will contribute to the need for additional
regional infrastructure that, in turn, will adversely impact species and habitats. The In-Lieu
Mitigation Fee imposed on all new development within the city is essential to fund
implementation of the city's Habitat Management Plan.
All necessary public facilities can be provided concurrent with need, and adequate provisions
have been provided to implement those portions of the capital improvement program applicable
to the subject property.
The project is consistent with the Citywide Facilities and Improvements Plan, the Local Facilities
Management Plan for Zone 8 and all city public facility policies and ordinances. The project
includes elements or has been conditioned to construct or provide funding to ensure that all
facilities and improvements regarding sewer collection and treatment, water, drainage,
circulation, fire, schools, parks and other recreational facilities, libraries, government
administrative facilities, and open space, related to the project will be installed to serve new
development prior to or concurrent with need. Specifically, the proposed project will provide
parks to meet the standard with the 93.7 acres divided equally to all four quadrants, will result
in a net gain of open space in the city's Habitat Management Plan, and does not impact any of
the other nine standards. The park has been long anticipated in the city's General Plan and a
park at this location was anticipated in the 1988 Local Facilities Management Plan for Zone 8.
The project is consistent with the adopted Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan for the McClellan-
Palomar Airport (ALUCP), dated December 1, 2011, in that the project is in Zone 6 and both
group and non-group recreation uses are allowed in Zone 6. The project is compatible with the
projected noise levels of the ALUCP; and, based on the noise/land use compatibility matrix of the
ALUCP, the proposed land use is compatible with the airport, in that a portion of the project site
is within the 60-65 decibel noise contours; community parks are compatible with this noise
contour area.
PC RESO NO. 7454 -6-
25. That the project is consistent with the city's Landscape Manual and Water Efficient Landscape
Ordinance (Carlsbad Municipal Code Chapter 18.50).
26. 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.
