AGENDA OF: April 6, 2011 Application complete date: February 3, 2011 Project Planner: Shelley Glennon Project Engineer: Clyde Wickham SUBJECT: CDP 10-27 - ROZEK RENOVATION - Request for approval of a Coastal Development Permit to construct a 393 sq. ft. addition to an existing 984 sq. ft one-story single-family dwelling unit, which includes a first story covered porch, a second story master bedroom, bathroom and sundeck, as well as an enclosed staircase and roof deck on a .08 acre lot located at 2677 Garfield Street within the Mello II Segment of the Local Coastal Program and within Local Facilities Management Zone 1. I. RECOMMENDATION That the Planning Commission ADOPT Planning Commission Resolution No. 6770 APPROVING Coastal Development Permit CDP 10-27 based upon the findings and subject to the conditions contained therein. II.INTRODUCTION The proposed single-family residential addition is located within three hundred feet of the inland extent of a beach and results in an increase of ten percent or more of internal floor area and height of an existing residential structure. Therefore, pursuant to Section 21.201.060 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code, the proposed 393 sq. ft. addition to a 984 sq. ft. one-story single- family home located within the City's Coastal Zone requires the processing of a Coastal Development Permit (CDP) and approval by the City of Carlsbad Planning Commission. The project site is also located within the appeals jurisdiction of the California Coastal Commission; therefore, the Planning Commission's decision on the CDP can be appealed to the California Coastal Commission. The CDP application was reviewed for consistency with Local Coastal Program (LCP) policies and implementation. The proposed residential addition is consistent with the R-3 Zone and the Mello II segment of the City's LCP. There are no unresolved issues and staffs recommendation of approval with conditions is supported by the analysis as follows. III. PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND Project Site/Setting: The rectangular shaped infill lot is located at 2677 Garfield Street as shown on the attached location map. The lot area is .08 acres (3,498 square feet) and is located in the appeals jurisdiction of the California Coastal Commission. CDP 10-27 - ROZEK RENOVATION April 6, 2011 PAGE 2 The project site is located adjacent to single family residential homes to the west and to the north. To the south of the project site is an existing 3-unit apartment complex and to the east across Garfield Street is Magee Community Park. The project will take access off of Garfield Street. Per the City's Street and Sidewalk Policy, Garfield Street has been identified as an Alternative Design Street, and as such, will be required to enter into a Neighborhood Improvement Agreement (NLA). Topographically, the previously graded site slopes downward approximately 5 feet from east to west and is currently developed with a one story single-family residential home. The existing one story single-family residential home is currently legally nonconforming by substandard side and front yards. The single-story residence is currently located 2.5' from the south side property line (5' minimum side yard setback required) and 15' from the front yard property line (20' front yard setback required). The existing single-family residence is also nonconforming by inadequate onsite parking. The existing home currently has a one-car garage, however, pursuant to the City of Carlsbad parking ordinance (CMC Section 21.44.010(2)(a)), a single-family home requires a two-car garage or two one-car garages. Proposed Residential Construction: The applicant proposes to construct a 393 sq. ft. addition to an existing 984 sq. ft one story single-family detached residential home which consists of a 384 sq. ft. second story master bedroom, master bathroom, and sundeck. Additionally, the project proposes to remove 94 sq. ft. of living area and add a covered porch to the first floor, an enclosed staircase and roof deck with a covered alcove to house outdoor furniture. The proposed "California Beach Bungalow" architectural style consists of wood framing, horizontal wood paneling, shingle siding, large fascias, stone veneer bay window seat, vinyl windows of varied shapes and sizes, and composition asphalt roof shingles. In addition to the Coastal Development Permit, the project also requires an Administrative Variance (AV 10-03) to locate a free standing open-lattice wood trellis 5 feet into the 20 foot front yard setback (See Exhibit "A"). The Administrative Variance was conditionally approved by the Planning Director on March 1, 2011, subject to the approval of CDP 10-27. Proposed Grading: Estimated grading quantities include 50 cubic yards (cy) of fill within the rear yard with 50 cy of import. A grading permit will not be required for this project. IV. ANALYSIS The project is subject to the following regulations and requirements: A. General Plan Residential Medium-High Density (RMH designation); B. Multiple-Family Residential Zone (R-3) (CMC Chapter 21.16) and Beach Area Overlay Zone (BAOZ) (CMC Chapter 21.82); C. Coastal Development Regulations for the Mello II Segment of the LCP (CMC Chapter 21.201); and Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone (CMC Chapter 21.203); D. Inclusionary Housing Ordinance (CMC Chapter 21.85); and E. Growth Management (CMC Chapter 21.90). A. General Plan The project site has a General Plan Land Use designation of RMH (Residential Medium High Density). The RMH Land Use designation allows the development of single-family residences CDP 10-27 - ROZEK RENOVATION April 6, 2011 PAGES at a density of 8-15 dwelling units per acre with a Growth Management Control Point (GMCP) of 11.5 dwelling units per acre. At the RMH GMCP, .92 dwelling units would be permitted on this 0.08 acre (net developable) property. The project proposes an addition to an existing single- story one-family dwelling unit (without increasing the number of units) and pursuant to the following General Plan provision: "Notwithstanding the density provisions and intent of each residential land use designation, a one-family dwelling shall be permitted on any legal lot that existed as of October 28, 2004." The subject lot was legally created prior to October 28, 2004; therefore the proposed addition to the existing one-family dwelling is consistent with the RMH General Plan Land Use designation. B. Multiple-Family Residential Zone (R-3) (Chapter 21.16 of the Zoning Ordinance) and Beach Area Overlay Zone (BAOZ) (Chapter 21.82 of the Zoning Ordinance) The project is required to comply with all applicable regulations and development standards of the Carlsbad Municipal Code (CMC) including the R-3 zone (CMC Chapter 21.16) and Beach Area Overlay Zone (BAOZ) (CMC Chapter 21.82). The R-3 zone allows for the development of a single family residence on any legal lot with an R- 3 zone that existed as of October 28, 2004. The subject lot has existed since 1927. The BAOZ regulations are applicable to all residential developments within the Beach Area Overlay Zone and are intended to supplement the underlying zoning (R-3) by providing additional development regulations to: 1) ensure that proposed development is compatible with existing surrounding uses; 2) provide adequate parking for residential developments; 3) ensure that public facilities exist to serve the beach area; and, 4) protect the unique mix of residential development and aesthetic quality of the area. Table A below illustrates the project's compliance with the various chapters of the Zoning Ordinance. The development standards stated in Table A are the standards applicable to the project. The single-family residence meets or exceeds the requirements of the R-3 (21.16) and BAOZ (21.82) regulations as outlined in Table A below: TABLE A - R-3 AND BAOZ DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS COMPLIANCE R-3 STANDARD Front Yard Setback Side Yard Setback Rear Yard Setback Lot Coverage REQUIRED 20' min. 5' min. 10' min. 50% max.

This addition is exempted from this requirement since the total new addition will be 299 sq. ft. (393 square feet addition - 94 square feet of existing square footage to be removed). C. Conformance with the Coastal Development Regulations for the Mello II Segment of the Local Coastal Program (CMC Chapter 21.201) and the Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone (CMC Chapter 21.203) The project site is located within the Mello II Segment of the Local Coastal Program and is within the California Coastal Commission's appeal jurisdiction. The site is also located within and subject to the Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone (Chapter 21.203) of the Carlsbad Municipal Code. As shown in Table B and discussed below, the project complies with all applicable LCP provisions. CDP 10-27 - ROZEK RENOVATION April 6, 2011 PAGES 1.Mello II Segment of the LCP The subject site has an LCP Land Use Plan designation of RMH (Residential Medium High Density), which allows for a density of 8 - 15 dwelling units per acre and 11.5 dwelling units per acre at the Growth Management Control Point (GMCP). Notwithstanding the density provisions and intent of each residential land use designation, a one-family dwelling shall be permitted on any legal lot that existed as of October 28, 2004 and therefore will remain consistent with the RMH General Plan Land Use designation as discussed in Section A. Therefore the project is consistent with the Mello II Segment of the LCP. The project includes the construction of a 393 sq. ft. addition to an existing 984 sq. ft one-story single-family dwelling unit, which includes a first story covered porch, a second story master bedroom, bathroom and sundeck, as well as an enclosed staircase and roof deck. The proposed single-family residential addition would be consistent with the surrounding development of one and two-story single-family and multi-family structures. The two-story residential addition 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 currently exist on the site, nor are there any sensitive resources located on the property. The proposed single- family residence is not located in an area of known geologic instability or flood hazard. Since the site is not located in close proximity to the coastline, no public opportunities for coastal shoreline access are available from the subject site. The residentially designated site is not suited for water-oriented recreation activities. TABLE B - COASTAL DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS COASTAL DEVELOPMENT COMPLIANCE STANDARD LCP Land Use Plan General Plan Zoning Grading Permit Required Hillside Development Permit Required Native Vegetation Impacts COMPLIANCE RMH (Residential Low Medium) RMH (Residential Low Medium) R-3 No (Import: 50 cubic yards (cy)) (Cut: Fill: 50 cy ) 0 cy/ No None 2.Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone 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, 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 steep slopes (> 25% gradient). 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. CDP 10-27 - ROZEK RENOVATION April 6, 2011 PAGE 6 D. Inclusionary Housing Ordinance (CMC Chapter 21.85) The project proposes to expand an existing single family residential dwelling unit without increasing the number of units provided. Therefore, pursuant to Carlsbad Municipal Code Section 21.85.030(D)(1)), "existing residences which are altered, improved, restored, repaired, expanded or extended, provided that the number of units is not increased" shall be exempted from inclusionary housing requirements. E. Growth Management The project site is presently developed with a single-family residential home and the proposed renovation will not significantly add demand for public facilities addressed by the Growth Management Program. Pursuant to Section 21.91.030(C)(2) "Growth Management", the proposed addition to the existing single-family residence will only be subject to pay any applicable fees established pursuant to city-wide facilities and improvement plan, and any applicable local facilities management plan as conditioned in Planning Commission Resolution No. 6770 (Condition No. 12). Since the site has an existing density and no changes to the density will occur from the proposed addition, the project will not be subject to City Council Policy No. 43 "Excess Dwelling Unit Bank Allocation." V. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW This project is exempt from CEQA per the Categorical Exemption Section 15301(e)(l) "Additions to Existing Structures" of CEQA Guidelines (Class 1) which exempts additions to existing structures provided that the addition will not result in an increase of more than 50 percent of the floor area of the structures before the addition, or 2,500 square feet, whichever is less. The 393 sq. ft. addition is less than the 2,500 sq. ft. maximum and will increase the existing 984 sq. ft. floor area by only 39.94%. A Notice of Exemption will be filed by the Planning Director upon project approval. ATTACHMENTS: 1. Planning Commission Resolution No. 6770 2. Location Map 3. Disclosure Form 4.
