SfAFF REPORT
DATE: MAY 6, 1992
TO: PLANNING COMMISSION
FROM: PLANNING DEPARTMENT
SUBJECT: CT 91-5/CP 91-3/HDP 91-10 -IA COSfA FAIRWAYVIIJ..AS -Request for
approval of a single lot Tentative Tract Map and Condominium Permit for 16
airspace townhome condominiums on 1.17 acres of land in the Residential
Density-Multiple Zone and Local Facilities Management Zone 6 located
directly south of the intersection of Jerez Court and Gibraltar Street.
I. RECOMMENDATION
That the Planning Commission ADOPT Planning Commission Resolution No. 3380,
APPROVING The Negative Declaration issued by the Planning Director, and ADOPT
Planning Commission Resolution Nos. 3381, 3383, 3382, APPROVING CT 91-5, CP 91-3,
and HDP 91-10, based on the findings and subject to the conditions contained therein.
II. PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND
The project is a single lot Tentative Map with a Condominium Permit for 16 air space
townhome condominium units and a Hillside Development Permit for the alteration of
pregraded pads and manufactured slopes.
The site is a collection of three vacant lots. Each lot has been graded into a pad which is
separated in elevation by approximately 10 feet from the adjacent pad. This pregraded
condition severely constrains the project site and limits the available options of site design.
There is existing two-story development on each of the privately owned contiguous
properties.
The project consists of 16 townhomes. There are four 2,200 square feet split-level two-
story units and twelve 2,700 square feet split-level three-story units. Each unit has an
attached two-car garage. The units have been designed in a contemporary architectural
style with stucco facades and tile roofs. The site will be reconfigured into two larger pads
with a grade difference of about eight to ten feet. Because of this and other proposed
design factors, ten of the twelve 3-story units retain approximately 8 feet of earth at their
rears and each of the 2-story units retain approximately 9 feet of earth.

The property is zoned Residential Density-Multiple (RD-M) and has a General Plan
designation of Residential High (RH). The RH density range is 15 -23 units per acre and
the Local Facilities Growth Control Point is 19 units per acre.
The project is consistent or complies with:

DISCUSSION
General Plan
The General Plan
The Zoning Ordinance/Planned Development Ordinance
Hillside Development Ordinance
The Zone 6 Local Facilities Management Plan
ANALYSIS
The Land Use Element of the General Plan characterizes Residential High density (RH) as
low and medium rise condominium and apartment development. The Residential
Guidelines encourage a variety of housing types; limit higher density residential
developments to those areas where they are compatible with the adjacent land uses; and
encourage the achievement of a variety and choice of housing in all economic ranges
throughout the city.
The adjacent development and surrounding neighborhood consists of two and three story
multi-family projects. Similarly, the proposed project offers a higher density housing type;
is compatible with adjacent development in density, scale and mass; and can therefore be
found to be consistent with the goals of the General Plan.
The General Plan Density range is 15-23 units per acre. The proposed density is 18.75
units per acre.
Zoning: Ordinance/Planned Development Ordinance
Approval of the Condominium Permit is subject to compliance with the Planned
Development section of the Zoning Ordinance. The proposal complies with setback, height,
and lot coverage regulations. Sufficient parking for residents and guests, individual interior
storage, common recreational equipment storage and circulation area are a part of the
development design. Open Space requirements are satisfied through the provision of
exterior balconies and decks, private ground level patios, and common recreational spaces
which include putting greens. Coast Waste Management Service has indicated by letter
that the project provides adequate access and space for collection of trash and recyclables
with residential curb service.

Hillside Development Ordinance
A Hillside Development Permit is required to be processed along with the request for
approval of any development on properties which have slopes greater than 15% and an
elevation difference of 15 feet or more.
The site has been graded by previous approval (approved as La Costa South #5 in 1969)
into three pads, each with a different pad elevation. This pregraded condition creates
severe constraints on the ability to design a reasonable and logical site plan. Therefore,
in a best effort to combine the three lots into a single development, the applicant has
proposed regrading the lots to create two larger pads separated in elevation by
approximately 10 feet.

Approval of the site design requires the exclusion of previously graded slopes and slopes
less than 15 feet in height and 4,000 square feet in area. Findings for exclusion can be
made and have been included in the resolution of approval.
The number of cubic yards of earth estimated to be moved for this design is 2,845 cubic
yards which calculates to 3,327 cubic yards per net acre. This amount falls within the
Hillside Development Ordinance acceptable range of 0-7,999 cubic yards per acre.
Because this project will have no control on the upper portion of the 1 1/2-1 rear slope,
a special condition has been included for the project proponent to provide a Hold Harmless
Geologic Failure Agreement. The slope is shared by the project and the adjacent property.
Local Facilities Management Zone 6
The subject property is located within Zone 6. Impacts on public facilities created by the
proposed project and compliance with the adopted performance standards are summarized

All new residential development in Zone 6 is subject to a Growth Management Fee of
$310.00 per unit. The fee was established by the City Council to fund the provision of
infrastructure required as a result of development.

ENVIRONMENfAL REVIEW
The environmental impacts created by development of the site were assessed to be
insignificant through the initial study. Therefore, a Negative Declaration was issued by the
Planning Director.
