SUBJECT: CDP 08-20x1 - GARFIELD BEACH RESIDENCE
The Planning Division has completed a review of your application for a Coastal Development
Permit Extension, CDP 08-20X1 - GARFIELD BEACH RESIDENCE, located at 2637 Garfield
Street. The project consists of the demolition of an existing two-unit residential apartment
building and the construction of a new 3,156 square foot single family dwelling unit on a .08 acre
lot. The project originally received Planning Commission approval of a Coastal Development
Permit on February 18, 2009 and was due to expire on February 17, 2011. After careful
consideration of the circumstances surrounding this request, it has been determined that (1)
there has been no change of circumstances in relation to coastal resources per Section 13169
of the California Code of Regulations, (2) the project is still in compliance with the Coastal
Development Permit regulations, and (3) that the findings required for granting a Coastal
Development Permit extension can be made; therefore, the Planning Director APPROVES
Coastal Development Permit Extension No. CDP 08-20x1 for two (2) years retroactive
(from February 18, 2011 to February 17, 2013) based on the following findings and conditions.
Findings:
1. All of the findings contained in the Planning Commission Resolution No. 6523 dated
February 18, 2009 for CDP 08-20 are incorporated herein by reference and remain in
effect.
2. That the two (2) year retroactive extension (from February 18, 2011 to February 17,
2013) is appropriate because the owner/applicant is diligently pursuing finalizing all
necessary permits, the project is still consistent with the Coastal Development Permit
regulations, and the extension would allow the owner/applicant to preserve existing
property entitlements while satisfying the conditions for the demolition of an existing
two-unit residential apartment building and the construction of a new 3,156 square
foot single family dwelling unit on a .08 acre lot (CDP 08-20).
3. That such permit and approval as extended are consistent with the requirements of Title
21 of this code at the time of their extension.
4. The Planning Director has determined that the project belongs to a class of projects that
the State Secretary of Resources has found do not have a significant impact on the
environment, and it is therefore categorically exempt from the requirement for the
preparation of environmental documents pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Sections 15301
and 15303 which exempts the demolition of a duplex or similar multi-family residential
structure or the construction of a new single-family residence in an urbanized area. In

making this determination, the Planning Director has found that the exceptions listed in
Section 15300.2 of the state CEQA Guidelines do not apply to this project.
Conditions:
1. This Coastal Development Permit retroactive extension is granted from February 18,
2011 to February 17, 2013. If building permits for this project are not obtained within
this time period, the coastal development permit extension will expire on February 18,
2013, unless extended per Section 21.201.210 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code.
2. All of the conditions contained in Planning Commission Resolution No. 6523 dated
February 18, 2011 for CDP 08-20 are incorporated herein by reference and remain in
effect except for Planning Condition No. 11 which is superseded by Condition No.
1 of this approval letter and Condition No. 14 which is superseded by Condition
No. 3 of this approval letter.
3. Prior to the issuance of a Building Permit, Developer shall submit to the City a Notice of
Restriction executed by the owner of the real property to be developed. Said notice is to
be filed in the office of the County Recorder, subject to the satisfaction of the Planning
Director notifying all interested parties and successors in interest that the City of
Carlsbad has issued a Coastal Development Permit Extension by this Approval
Letter, dated February 28, 2011 on the property. Said Notice of Restriction shall note
the property description, location of the file containing complete project details and all
conditions of approval as well as any conditions or restrictions specified for inclusion in
the Notice of Restriction. The Planning Director has the authority to execute and record
an amendment to the notice which modifies or terminates said notice upon a showing of
good cause by the Developer or successor in interest.
4. Fire sprinklers will be required for the project per the 2010 California Fire Code.
