ISSUES OF CONCERN
h
Project No. AV 97-04
Planning:
1. Delineate on the project site plan the location where the administrative variance
is proposed to allow the encroachment into the required Armada Drive landscape
setback area.
2. Dimension in several locations on the project site plan the distance from the
proposed fence from the front property line (Armada Drive right-of-way). The
required setback is 40 feet in areas for which the administrative variance is not
requested. When the project site plan is scaled there are numerous areas where
the fence would encroach into the required setback.
3. The plan appears to indicate that the proposed fence color is tan. To
complement the project architecture it is suggested that you consider utilizing the
champagne gold color applied to the building’s metal surface such as the metal
seemed roof as well as the onsite signage fixtures. A color sample of the
proposed fence color must be provided and the plans revised to clearly indicate
the color proposed.
4. For your information it is suggested that you contact David Meyer at the
Carlsbad Ranch Company concerning approval necessary under the CC&Rs
applicable to the Carlsbad Ranch.
Engineering:
1. The developer should adhere to the previous comments and agreed design of
this fence. The main entrance (Sheet L1.l) gate and fence is supposed to be a
“U” configuration past the guard station about 50 feet to the existing planted
medians. This was agreed as a preliminary issue and subsequently changed in
final design process.
2. The’ detail call outs on Sheet L1.l don’t match the “Enlargement Details” on
Sheet L1.2 please correct.
3. The card readerskall box and know box override locations should be shown on
each gate detail.
