Maintain a Level of Service Dor better for all modes that are subject to the Multi-Modal Level of Services standard, as identified in Table 341 of the General Plan Mobility Element, excluding Level of Service exempt intersections and streets approved by the City Council. Rationale ► The ability to move safely and conveniently throughout thE quality of life and the local economy as the city manages fi ► The committee believes vehicle traffic congestion needs ta should better accommodate all modes of travel. ► The 2015 General Plan update calls for a multimodal Comp throughout the city, which will accommodate all modes of and pedestrian). These modes will be prioritized drfferent~ purpose of each street. ► The city is currently developing a multimodal impact fee tc streets to meet current and future demands. Once comple could be reviewed to ensure alignment with the new impa, Other considerations ► Some committee members preferred a staff recommendat one that relied upon the Sustainable Mobility Plan and a rn impact fee to address citywide improvements. The majori1 recommend the current standard be kept in place. Status ► Based on the 2020-2021 Growth Management Monitoring roadway facilities identified in the report were previously c be deficient and exempt per General Plan Mobility Policy 3 Service analysis continues to be developed with the Traffic initial Multimodal Level of Service will be presented to the in the spring of 2023 34 WATER DISTR IBUTION SYSTEM STANDARD Proposed new standard ► Concurrent with development, coordinate with the appropriate water district to ensure water pipelines have capacity to meet increased demand. Existing standard ► Line capacity to meet demand as determined by the appropriate water district must be provided concurrent with development. A minimum 10-day average storage capacity must be provided prior to any development. Rationale ► Reliable delivery of safe drinking water is essential for public health, quality of life and the city's economy as the city manages future growth. ► Carlsbad Municipal Water District, which is a subsidiary district of the City of Carlsbad, Olivenhain Municipal Water District (southern carlsbad) and Vallecitos Water District (parts of eastern Carlsbad) distribute water within the city's boundaries. ► These water districts prepare water master plans to forecast future infrastructure needs, among other things. ► When a residential development project is proposed, city staff consult the appropriate water master plan to check pipeline sizes and facility capacities. If needed, developers will be required to build projects identified in the master plan concurrently with the project. ► The committee recommends removing the storage requirement because the standard is not intended to address water supply, just infrastructure. Additionally, the city has developed adequate storage capacity since the original standard was developed. Status ► Based on the 2020-2021 Growth Management Monitoring Report, all three water districts serving Carlsbad have plans in place to ensure water distribution capacity will keep pace with development. 36 Carlsbad-""": TOMORR W STANDARDS RECOMMENDED FOR REMOVAL By consensus, the committee recommended four of the existing performance standards be removed from the Growth Management Program. WASTE WATER TREATM ENT STA NDARD 0 Existing standard ► Sewer plant capacity is adequate for at least a five-year period. Rationale Sufficient planning processes and efforts exist to maintain sewer system capacity through the city's invotvement with the Encina Joint Powers Authority and the city capacity. Y A DMI NISTRATIVE FACILITIES STANDARD 0 ing standard 1,500 sq. ft. per 1,000 population must be scheduled for construction within a five-year period or prior to construction of 6,250 dwelling units, beginning at the time the need is first identified. nale This standard is no longer reflective of modern business operations and is unnecessary with the new civic center and city hall project authorized in August 2022 to move forward.
