11. INTRODUCTION
The applicant is requesting approval of an amendment to a coastal development permit to allow
the construction of 14 single family homes on previously subdivided and graded single family
lots and an amendment to a site development plan to change two approved detached second
dwelling units to attached second dwelling units. The Planning Commission’s decision is
limited to determining if the proposed architecture and building placement of the 14 single
family homes and two second dwelling units are consistent with the R-1 (One Family
Residential) Zone including the Second Dwelling Unit Ordinance, Mello I1 LCP policies, and
the Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone. As designed and conditioned, the project is in
compliance with the General Plan, Mello I1 Segment of Carlsbad’s Local Coastal Program, and
the relevant zoning regulations of the Carlsbad Municipal Code.
111. PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND
The proposed project consists of a request for a Coastal Development Permit amendment and
Site Development Plan amendment to allow the construction of 14 single family one and two
story homes and two second dwelling units on previously graded and subdivided single family
lots in the R- 1 - 10,000 zone at the comer of Park Drive and Monroe Street. As stated above, the
Planning Commission’s decision must be based on the projects consistency with the R-1 Zone
development standards for single family homes and second dwelling units and the applicable
Mello I1 LCP and Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone development regulations. The R-1
zone standards limit building height to a maximum of 30 feet and two stories, and the Mello I1
SDP 98-05(A)/CDP 97-58(A) - CARLSBAD PARK ESTATES
October 20, 1999
Page 2
LCP regulations applicable to the subject property have no provisions for the preservation of
private views or building height beyond those required by the R-1 zone.
The May Subdivision, which was approved by the City Council in September, 1998 on appeal,
created 14 single family lots that are a minimum of 10,000 square feet in area and included two
detached second dwelling units on two of the 14 lots to satisfy the project’s inclusionary housing
requirement. Although conceptual archtectural exhibits were approved for the lots proposed with
second dwelling units as part of the original project approval, the project was conditioned to
receive approval of an amended coastal development permit for the actual single family units
prior to issuance of building permits. Since the proposed second dwelling units are no longer
proposed as detached single story units, the approved site development plan (SDP 98-05) for the
two second dwelling units must also be amended.
The single family lots have been graded in accordance with the approved subdivision map and all
the necessary utilities and street improvements have been constructed. Retaining walls in side
and rear yard slopes are proposed to enable detached garages to be accommodated to the rear of
residential structures and to ensure positive drainage to the street. Five of the lots have frontage
on Monroe Street, three lots have frontage on Park Drive, and the remaining lots have frontage
on May Court, an internal cul-de-sac street.
.
The proposed homes consist of two two-story floor plans (Plans 1 and 2) and two single story
floor plans (Plans 3 and 4) that range in size from 2,720 square feet to 4,107 square feet
(including three car garages). Two different facade treatments are proposed for each of the two-
story units. Plan 1 has a detached single story garage located behind the main structure; Plan 2
has an attached single story garage located at the rear of the structure; and Plans 3 and 4 have
side loaded garages which results in a street scene exclusive of garage doors. The proposed
architectural style is craftsman with steeply pitched shake tile roofs, wood and shingle siding,
cultured stone and river rock trim elements, and enhanced window treatment on all elevations.
Four different muted color schemes are proposed. Plans 3 and 4 (single story units) are proposed
for Lots 10 and 13 fronting on Monroe Street and the remaining lots are proposed with a mix of
Plans 1 and 2. Lots 7 and 8, which were previously approved with detached second dwelling
units, are now proposed with a Plan 2 which is altered by the addition of a 631 square foot, one
bedroom second dwelling unit located above the single story garage. Exterior stairway access is
provided to the unit and a parking space is provided in the driveway outside of the front yard
setback.
The proposed project is subject to the following land use plans, policies, and zoning regulations:
A. Mello I1 Segment of the Local Coastal Program (LCP)
B. Carlsbad Municipal Code; Title 21 , (Zoning Ordinance) including:

IV. ANALYSIS
COASTAL DEVELOPMENT COMPLIANCE TABLE
LCP Land Use Plan I RLM (Residential Low- Medium>*
The recommendation for approval of this project was developed by analyzing the project’s
consistency with the applicable regulations and policies. The project’s compliance with each of
the above regulations is discussed in detail in the sections below.
Side Yard Setback
Rear Yard Setback
Max Building Height
A. Mello I1 LCP Segment
The 14 single family lots proposed to be developed with single family homes have been
previously found in compliance with the applicable Mello I1 LCP resource preservation policies
and implementing ordinances pertaining to soil erosion, sediment control, and drainage facilities
as part of the subdivision map and subsequent grading permit. The proposed one and two story
single family homes are consistent in size and architecture with surrounding development and
will not obstruct public views or otherwise damage the visual beauty of the coastal zone. The
proposed single family homes and second dwelling units are consistent with the LCP Land Use
Map and Zoning Map as shown on the Coastal Development Compliance Table below:
10% Lot Width (5’ - lo’)
2 X Side Yard (lo’ - 20’)
Minimum 6’
Minimum 16’

1 Zoning I R-1-10,000 (One Family Residential) U
*The LCP Land Use Plan designates the subject site for RLM (Residential Low Medium)
density development. Based on a density of 0 - 4 ddac, the lots could accommodate one
dwelling unit on each lot and a second dwelling unit on Lots 7 and 8. Affordable
Housing Policy 1-1 of the Mello I1 LCP allow for the development of second dwelling
units subject to compliance with all applicable LCP provisions, with the exceptions of
base density.
B1. Chapter 21.10 - R-1 (One Family Residential) Zone
The site is zoned R-1-10,000 requihng compliance with the R-1 Zone building height, setback,
and coverage development standards. The proposed single family homes and second dwelling
units are consistent with the R-1 Zone development standards as shown in the following table:

B2. Chapters 21.53 and 21.85 -Site Development Planfinclusionary Housing
As required by Chapters 21.85 and 21.53 for all affordable housing projects, the Planning
Commission and City Council, (on appeal) approved a Site Development Plan for two
conceptually designed 603 square foot, one-bedroom, detached second dwelling units on Lots 7
and 8 for the May Subdivision project whch satisfied the project’s inclusionary housing
requirement. Subsequently, an affordable housing agreement was approved for second dwelling
units on these lots. It was recognized at that time that since plans for the actual single family
units on each lot would be proposed at a future date, the Site Development Plan illustrating the
conceptual second dwelling units might also have to be amended.
As stated above, the proposed second dwelling units are consistent with the required second
dwelling unit development standards. Although the second dwelling units are still proposed on
Lots 7 and 8, they me now proposed as attached units located above the single story garage of
Plan 2. The proposed units are still one-bedroom and slightly larger, 631 square feet compared
to the approved 603 square feet. The exterior architectural design of the second dwelling unit is
consistent with the main dwelling. An exterior stairway access is proposed adjacent to the
garage, however, since the garage door is set back 44’ from the front of the structure, the
stairway is not directly visible from the street. An off-street tandem parking space in front of the
garage is provided.

See discussion under Section A (Mello I1 LCP) above.
V. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The initial study (EIA-Part 11) prepared in conjunction with this project determined that the
project would not have a significant impact on the environment because the applicant has agreed
to mitigate the failure of the Palomar Airport and El Camino Real intersection through payment
of their fair share for the short term improvements to that intersection. The project falls within
the scope of the City’s MEIR for the City of Carlsbad General Plan Update (EIR 93-01) certified
in September, 1994, in which a Statement of Ovemding Considerations was adopted for
cumulative impacts to air quality and traffic. An Average Daily Trip (ADT) of 160 would be

generated by the proposed project. Ths ADT is consistent with the generation rate analyzed for
the site in the MER. Therefore, the Planning Director issued a Mitigated Negative Declaration
for the proposed project on September 7, 1999. The environmental document was noticed in the
newspaper and no public comments were received during the 30 day public review and comment
period.
