Feb. 6, 2024 Item #7 Page 1 of 28 Explanation & Analysis Ordinance Nos. CS-465 and CS-466 were introduced and first read at the City Council meeting held on Jan. 30, 2024. On a motion by Mayor Blackburn, seconded by Mayor Pro Tem Bhat- Patel, the City Council voted 5-0 to introduce Ordinance Nos. CS-465 and CS-466 amending the Zoning Ordinance and Zoning Map, Title 21 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code, to implement portions of objectives b, c, and d of Housing Element Program 1.1 and objective b of Housing Element Program 1.3 for Map 1 and amending the Bressi Ranch Master Plan, Fenton Carlsbad Center Specific Plan, Green Valley Master Plan, North County Plaza Specific Plan, and Westfield Carlsbad Specific Plan. The second reading allows the City Council to adopt the ordinances. The ordinances shall be effective thirty days after their adoption for properties outside the coastal zone. For properties inside the coastal zone, the ordinances shall be effective thirty days after their adoption or upon Coastal Commission approval of LCPA 2022-0015, whichever occurs later. The City Clerk shall certify the adoption of these ordinances and cause the full text of the ordinances or a summary of the ordinances prepared by the City Attorney to be published at least once in a newspaper of general circulation in the City of Carlsbad within fifteen days after their adoption. Fiscal Analysis There is no direct fiscal impact associated with the recommended action. The requirement to build additional housing units in the city will generate additional revenue; however, the timing and amount of this revenue are difficult to predict, so it will be incorporated into the city’s budget on an annual basis. Next Steps The City Clerk’s Office will have the ordinances, or a summary of the ordinances, published in a newspaper of general circulation within 15 days following adoption of the ordinances. Environmental Evaluation A final environmental assessment/program environmental impact report (EIR) (State Clearinghouse No. 2022090339) relative to the Housing Element Implementation and Public Safety Element update has been prepared and the City Council has certified it with the approval of City Council Resolution No. 2024-14 The action before the City Council to adopt implementing ordinances directly related to the project considered in the EIR. This action was evaluated for environmental processing in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, (CEQA, Public Resources Code section 21000), and its implementing regulations (the CEQA Guidelines, Article 14 of the California Code of Regulations section 15000). No further environmental documentation is necessary, in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15162(b). Exhibits 1. Ordinance No. CS-465 2.

McMAHON, City Attorney KEITH BLACKBURN, Mayor SHERRY FREISINGER, City Clerk (SEAL) Feb. 6, 2024 Item #7 Page 28 of 28 Tammy Cloud-McMinn From: Sent: To: Subject: Carlsbad City Council Members George Skinner <george.a.skinner@gmail.com> Tuesday, February 6, 2024 1 :49 PM City Clerk Comments re agenda items 6 & 7 All Receive -Agenda Item # U?:J-7 For the Information of the: CITY COUNCIL Date:2./tJP/CA __::::-cc _::: CM ✓ ACM ✓-'DCM (3) _;;;;;- I attended the meeting last week re. rezoning and was very concerned re the lack of information from City staff on some of the topics.discussed. Seeing agenda items 6 and 7 are adding to my concerns and those of my neighbors here in SeaGrove. To keep it brief, re: 6) Negotiating with NCTD re parking in the Village including the Train Station I'm sure you recall there was a lot of commentary from your constituents last week re increasing traffic and shortage of parking within the Village. The City Traffic Planner was asked how he determined that Carlsbad had sufficient infrastructure to handle all of the new development proposed. His answer was that the analysis was done on a macro level for the entire city and not specifically for any of the sites. In what world is that an adequate response? Is this the same team that will be negotiating with NCTD? Hope to learn more tonight. 7) Acceptance of the rezoning proposals. I believe it was Melanie Bukholder who asked where the housing units removed in siets 8 and 15 were going to be reallocated . She asked specifically if they were planning to add these to sites 14 and 17 (the rail stations).The City Planner would not answer so I expect that is the plan, as NCTD wants to maximize the density at those sites. Also I asked what number of units the city plans for in Site 14, as the density numbers and acreage quoted are conflicting.These questions needed to be answered before your vote last week. I have to add that the City has approved many projects in the past that conflict with the Village theme. Seaglass on State is a prime example; it is such a poor design that the builder can not even sell some of these units. Ocean 17 has flooding issues even before our recent rains. The grotesque box approved 6 years ago for the corner of State and Carlsbad Village Drive was vqted down by the Council only after a public outcry. Now the developer is back with another 45' plus version that does not remotely fit our village. Is there a point to having height and lot line restrictions if no common sense is used re the actual design and fit of the buildings .. Thanks for your attention, and hoping for answers!
