AGENDA OF: June 20, 2001 Application complete date: May 4, 2001 Project Planner: Michael Grim Project Engineer: David Rick SUBJECT: CDP 99-32(A) - JENSEN RESIDENCE EXPANSION - Request for approval of a Coastal Development Permit Amendment to allow for the expansion of the livable floor area in an existing basement of a single-family residence within the City's Coastal Zone located at 5139 Carlsbad Boulevard within Local Facilities Management Zone 3. I. RECOMMENDATION That the Planning Commission ADOPT Planning Commission Resolution No. 4991 APPROVING Coastal Development Permit Amendment CDP 99-32(A) based upon the findings and subject to the conditions contained therein. H.INTRODUCTION Pursuant to Section 21.201.060.A.l.b of the Carlsbad Municipal Code, improvements to an existing single-family residential building located within 50 feet of the edge of a coastal bluff within the City's Coastal Zone requires the processing and approval of a Coastal Development Permit Amendment (CDP(A)). The proposal converts non-livable space within an existing basement to livable space. The CDP(A) application was reviewed for consistency with LCP policies and implementation. There are no unresolved issues. The staff recommended approval with conditions is supported by the analysis as follows. HI. PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND Project Site/Setting: Infill, developed lot located at 5139 Carlsbad Boulevard as shown on the attached location map. The lot area is 0.53 acres (23,086 square feet). The property is currently being developed with a single-family residence pursuant to Coastal Development Permit CDP 99-32, approved March 15, 2000. Proposed Residential Construction: Internal expansion of the livable floor area of the basement totaling 851 square feet. The existing residence totals 7,053, with 1,608 square feet of basement, 3,132 square feet of first floor, and 2,313 square feet of second floor space. Proposed Grading: No grading is proposed with this CDP(A) because no expansion of the existing basement perimeter is needed. Therefore, a grading permit will not be required for this project. CDP 99-32(A) - JENSEN June 20, 2001 Page2 SIDENCE EXPANSION IV. ANALYSIS As shown on the Coastal Development Compliance Table below, the proposed development is in compliance with all applicable regulations. Building permits may be issued subject to the conditions contained in Planning Commission Resolution No. 4991.

Conformance with the Certified Local Coastal Program and all applicable policies. The project is located in the Mello II Local Coastal Program Segment. The project proposes the livable floor area expansion of an existing single-family residence in an area designated for single-family development. The LCP Land Use Plan designates the subject site for low medium density development (0.0 - 4.0 dwelling units per developable acre). 2. Conformance with public access and recreation policies of Chapter 3 of the Coastal Act. The subject lots, and two other oceanfront lots, were created through a minor subdivision (CDP 98-05, processed by this applicant) and Coastal Zone access was discussed at that time. The applicant (and property owner of the subject property) constructed a beach access stairway on the southernmost of the lots, providing access from Carlsbad Boulevard to the beach. All easements to secure the public use of the beach access stairway have been secured and, therefore, the proposed residential expansion still conforms with the public access policies of Chapter 3 of the Coastal Act. 3. Coastal Overlay Zones. The subject site is located in the Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone, however, due to its location and the absence of slopes steeper than 25% inclination and/or native vegetation, additional submittals, standards or requirements do not apply. The proposed basement floor area expansion is contained within the existing envelope of the residential structure, therefore the existing bluff top setback will remain.
