David Rft Assistant Engineer - Land Use Review H:\LIBRARY\ENG\WPDATA\MISC\COMPREV Memorandum TO: Greg Fisher, Assistant Planner FROM: David Rick, Assistant Engineer DATE: March 23, 2001 CDP 01-08 4100 SUNNYHILL DR (McGRADY RESIDENCE) COMPLETENESS & ISSUES REVIEW Engineering Department staff has completed a review of the above-referenced project for application completeness. The application and plans submitted for this proposed project are currently incomplete and unsuitable for further review due to the following incomplete items: 1. Preliminary title report dated within the last 6 months. The following issues need to be resolved prior to resubmittal: 2. If the property must be subdivided to comply with zoning regulations, then identify the location of the proposed property line and submit an application for a minor subdivision. 3. On the site plan and grading plan, show a "proposed 4-foot dedication for public right-of- way" on the Tamarack Ave frontage. Show the radius transition at the curb return at the corner of Tamarack Ave and on Sunnyhill Drive. Use a property line radius of 25 feet. 4. Two percent grade is the maximum permitted within the public right-of-way, including the additional dedication required on Tamarack Avenue. Revise the grades on Tamarack Ave accordingly. To comply with this requirement, the driveway apron must be reduced to 2% grade as well. If the existing pad elevations are to remain, then this change in grade will increase the grade of the driveway behind the right-of-way boundary. The grade is currently proposed at 10.8% and the maximum grade permitted is 14%. Provide a cross section of the driveway to illustrate that the vertical curve of the driveway will not induce bottoming of vehicles exiting the property. 5. Is the swale shown on the grading plan a concrete or earth swale? Use an earth swale wherever functional. It appears that a concrete swale will, however, be required on the west side of the proposed garage. 6. Provide grading quantities in cubic yards. 7. On the grading plan, show a wall or slope transition at the turn around which encroaches into the 2:1 slope. 8. On the grading plan, show the shrub located next to the power pole on Tamarack Ave. City of Carlsbad Planning Department March 23, 2001 Mr. & Mrs Michael McGrady 4100 Sunnyhill Drive Carlsbad, Ca 92008 SUBJECT: CDP 01-08 - MCGRADY RESIDENCE Thank you for applying for Land Use Permits in the City of Carlsbad.

Engineering: Preliminary title report dated within the last 6 months. ISSUES OF CONCERN Planning: 1. Please provide the following information within the Project Data Summary: lot coverage (includes all structures); required and proposed setbacks; proposed maximum building height; change existing residence to accessory building and re-label site plan. 2. Please provide the roof pitch for the existing house. 3. Per Preliminary Review 00-63 dated September 25, 2000, retention of the existing house as an accessory structure will require permanent modifications which will guaranteed that the structure cannot be used as a one-family dwelling defined in the Carlsbad Municipal Code. As a reminder, these modifications will have to be made prior to receiving final occupancy from the building department. 4. Is the neighbor's existing wall that encroaches the subject property to remain? Please show any proposed walls or fences on site plan. 5. Please label the property lines on the site plan P/L. Engineering: The following issues need to be resolved prior to resubmittal: 1. On the site plan and grading plan, show a "proposed 4-foot dedication for public right- of-way" on the Tamarack Ave frontage. Show the radius transition at the curb return at the corner of Tamarack Ave and on Sunnyhill Drive. Use a property line radius of 25 feet. 2. Two percent grade is the maximum permitted within the public right-of-way, including the additional dedication required on Tamarack Avenue. Revise the grades on Tamarack Ave accordingly.

Is the swale shown on the grading plan a concrete or earth swale? Use an earth swale wherever functional. It appears that a concrete swale will, however, be required on the west side of the proposed garage. 4. Provide grading quantities in cubic yards. 5. On the grading plan, show a wall or slope transition at the turn around which encroaches into the 2:1 slope. 6. On the grading plan, show the shrub located next to the power pole on Tamarack Ave. This shrub interferes with safe site distance for drivers exiting the proposed driveway. Before you indicate its removal with a note on the grading plan, approval to remove the shrub must be granted by the General Services Division of the Public Works Department. Contact Fred Burnell at (760) 438-2985. 7. Is the proposed "gravel check dam" temporary for erosion control during the construction phase or is it proposed as a permanent infiltration basin or riprap energy dissipator. The detail is vague. Please clarify its design and purpose. An infiltration basin would be beneficial in its ability to filter storm water runoff, but since it is located at the top of a slope, obtain the support of a soils engineer. Have the soils engineer analyze and make any recommendations for the location of this basin in the soils report or as an addendum. In addition, if the basin is acceptable, an outlet for overflow needs to included. 8. The soils report recommends building setbacks of at least 5 feet from the top of a slope when footings are founded in dense formational material. The garage is proposed at 3 feet. 9. Will all of the chain link fence fronting Tamarack Ave be removed or just at the driveway entrance?

Please be advised that in order to make a more in-depth review of the proposed development, a more complete design of the project is required. 2. Provide finished grade information and proposed topography on the plans. 3. Include the installation of roof gutters on the new residence. Roof gutters should then be collected and conveyed to Tamarack Avenue and not towards adjacent properties. 4. Indicate all existing and proposed utilities along Tamarack Avenue and Sunnyhill Drive (i.e., storm drain, water, sewer, etc.) that will serve the development. Indicate gravity flow for sewer facilities via invert elevations. The submitted plan does not depict any facilities. 5. Clarify whether the existing sewer and water laterals will be utilized to serve the existing and proposed residence. If so, verify that the sizes of the laterals are adequate to serve both structures. If new laterals are proposed, revise the plans should include such provisions. 6. Callout all existing and proposed surface improvements (curb, gutter, sidewalk, paving, inlets, street lights, adjacent driveways, vaults, transformers, etc.) along the property fronting Tamarack Avenue and Sunnyhill Drive, and verify that no conflicts exist. 7. Clarify whether a gate is proposed at the proposed driveway entrance. If one is proposed, the plan must be revised so that there is sufficient room for a vehicle to exit off Tamarack Avenue and park while the gate is opened. 8. Where the existing driveway along Tamarack Avenue is being removed, indicate the replacement of curb and gutter per City Standards. 9. Indicate if there is an existing pedestrian ramp at the corner of Tamarack Avenue and Sunnyhill Drive. If not, one should be installed as part of the project. 10. Identify the horizontal distance from the centerline of the proposed driveway to the PRE 00-63, McGrady Residence Page 2 of3 September 25, 2000 Sunnyhill Drive intersection. 11. Revise the plan to indicate the ADT (traffic), EDU's (sewer), and GPM (potable water) generated or required by the proposed development. 12. Meet with the Fire Department to identify the necessary fire protection measures required for this project (access, fire hydrants, sprinklering, etc.). All proposed fire hydrants must be served by public water mains. 13. Show all existing and proposed topography and drainage patterns on the site. Revise the plans to indicate how on-site surface runoff is controlled. Identify the location, alignment, and discharge of any proposed drainage system. There appear to be areas of ponding around the proposed residence that must be resolved. 14. Indicate the legal description of all adjacent properties. 15. Provide a Vicinity Map on the site plan. 16. Indicate the scale of the drawing submitted. 17. Indicate the volume of grading (cut, fill, import, export, remedial) proposed for the project in cubic yards. There is insufficient information on the plans to make a clear determination of whether a grading permit is required or not. 18. Provide finished surface elevations on the proposed driveway. Clarify how the concrete stairway will be constructed to match the proposed driveway. 19. Clarify if there is a proposed retaining wall required to support the driveway kick-out as noted on the plans. If so, indicate top-of-wall and bottom-of-wall elevations. 20. Indicate the vertical slope of the proposed driveway as it approaches Tamarack.. 21. Show typical street sections of Tamarack Avenue and Sunnyhill Drive that indicate existing and proposed improvements. 22. On the site plan, include dimensions on the width of existing pavement and right-of- way on Tamarack Avenue and Sunnyhill Drive. 23. A recent Preliminary Title Report (PR) issued within 6 months of formal application submittal will be required for the proposed project. 24. If there are existing easements that are not plotted on these plans, there may be significant changes to this proposed concept in order to avoid conflicts. 25. All easements and encumbrances as identified in Schedule "B" of the PR must be indicated on the site plan. The future disposition of any easements and encumbrances must also be identified. 26. The complete property boundary must be shown on the site plan, which must include all bearings and distances. 27. Indicate how National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) criteria will be met. This could include, but not be limited to, doing one or a combination of the PRE 00-63, McGrady Residence PageS of 3 September 25, 2000 following: directing surface run-off through vegetated swales prior to discharge to a storm drain or the public right of way, constructing a gravel/sand/fossil filter system, constructing de-pollutant basins, etc. Also, any loading areas that are located in a sump must have pump facilities to direct drainage to a pollutant mitigation area. 28. Indicate the line-of-sight at the driveway entrance looking east and west onto Tamarack Avenue using Caltrans guidelines. Verify that no conflicts exist. 29. Depict the sight distance corridor on the site plans pursuant to City Standards (at the street intersection) and verify that no conflicts exist. 30. This preliminary review does not constitute a complete review of the proposed project and additional items of concern may be identified upon formal project application submittal. 31. A redlined check print is enclosed for the applicants use in making the requested revisions. This check print should be returned with the formal application submittal to facilitate continued staff review.
