TO: FROM: RE: Dear MI Mike Grim City of Carlsbad Planning & Engineering MAR 2 L7 5997 Larry Richards 1830 Oxford Avenue Cardiff, CA 92007 (61 9) 944-0765 COASTAL BLUFF SETBACK FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SINGLE 5305 CARLSBAD BLVD.) FAMILY HOME ON APN @lo-120-31 (SIXTY FOOT LOT JUST SOUTH OF Grim: My family and I have started the process of designing our home on the above mentioned property. We are designing our home within the R-1 zoning setback requirements. This being front yard 20', side yard 6'. We are setting the home back 25' from the bluff edge on the west side of the property per the recommendations made by Southland Geotechnical Consultants. I have submitted the following reports: 1. Geotechnical Investigation and Foundation Recommendations by Engineering Design Group, dated March 3, 1997. 2. Geotechnical Evaluation of Coastal Bluff Property by Southland Geotechnical Consultants, dated March 10, 1997. I have also enclosed a drawing showing the subject property and our relationship to our neighbor at 5305 Carlsbad Blvd. We appreciate the reviewing of the submitted materials and confirming the setbacks being used for our home design. Thank you for your time. Sincerely, I Larry D. Richards TO: Associate Planner, Mike Grim FROM: Associate Engineer, Clyde Wickham DATE: April 7, 1997 RE: PRE 97 - 19, Larry Richards We have completed our review of the Preliminary Development Plan identified above. We have a few comments that could affect the project, as submitted. Based upon the plan submitted we can support this request, provided that a third party review of Geotechnical stability is acceptable. The adjacent property owner has submitted a proposal for a stairway that has gone through this process and has received favorable support. Please forward these comments in your letter to the applicant. The Geotechnical Evaluation and Recommendations should follow the guidelines of the Local Coastal Plan. I believe the setback using this scenario will be 40’ similar to the adjacent property south of this site and will also correspond to the adjacent Geotechnical Report. The setback line appears to be airborne at the south west corner of this site and a more specific setback could be identified by an Engineer or Surveyor. The bluff setback area should remain clear of patio decks planter areas and yard drains that would endanger the bluff stability. The public improvements and dedication along Carlsbad Blvd. should be shown and anticipated. Construction and dedication along with the proposed development will be required. Ideally, the Building footprint should be shown. The landscape drains and elevations should also be considered at this stage because of the limited options available. It appears that the proposed residence is lower than the street. x, Associate Engineer Land Development Division October 27, 1997 TO: ASSOCIATE PLANNER - ERIC MUNOZ Principal Civil Engineer Wojcik /- W Associate Engineer - Land Development f VIA: FROM: CDP 97-32 - TERRAMAR BEACH HOUSE - CONDITIONS The Engineering Department has completed its review of the subject project. The Engineering Department is recommending that the project be approved subject to the following conditions: General 46. Prior to hauling dirt or construction materials to or from any proposed construction site within this project, the developer shall submit to and receive approval from the City Engineer for the proposed haul route. The developer shall comply with all conditions and requirements the City Engineer may impose with regards to the hauling operation. FeeslAareements 50. 51. 52. 55. 56. The developer shall pay all current fees and deposits required. The owner of the subject property shall execute an agreement holding the City harmless regarding drainage across the adjacent property. The owner shall enter into a lien contract for the future public improvement of Carlsbad Boulevard along the project frontage for a half street width of fifty (50) feet. Public improvements shall include, but not be limited to, paving, base, sidewalks, curbs and gutter, medians, grading, clearing and grubbing, undergrounding or relocation of utilities, sewer, water, fire hydrants, street lights and retaining walls. Additionally, the lien contract shall include the owner’s consent to modify the project’s access drive as shown on the site plan, and to include the cost of the modification with the cost of the public improvements. The owner shall execute a hold harmless agreement for geologic failure. Prior to approval of any grading or building permits for this project, the owner shall give written consent to the annexation of the area shown within the boundaries of the subdivision plan into the existing City of Carlsbad Street Lighting and Landscaping District No. 1 on a form provided by the City. 1 0 3 * Gradinq 58. Based upon a review of the proposed grading and the grading quantities shown on the site plan, a grading permit for this project appears to be required. The developer must submit and receive approval for grading plans in accordance with city codes and standards prior to issuance of a building permit for the project. 61. No grading for private improvements shall occur outside the limits of the project unless a grading or slope easement or agreement is obtained from the owners of the affected properties and recorded. If the developer is unable to obtain the grading or slope easement, or agreement, no grading permit will be issued. In that case the developer must either amend the site plan or modify the plans so grading will not occur outside the project site in a manner which substantially conforms to the site plan as determined by the City Engineer and Planning Director. 77. Drainage outfall end treatment for the drainage outlet at the bottom of the bluff area, shall be designed and incorporated into the grading plans for the project. The end treatment shall be designed so as to prevent sand erosion from the beach area. The design shall be made to the satisfaction of the City Engineer. Code Reminder The project is subject to all applicable provisions of local ordinances, including but not limited to the following: 79. The developer shall exercise special care during the construction phase of this project to prevent offsite siltation. Planting and erosion control shall be provided in accordance with the Carlsbad Municipal Code and the City Engineer. 4 Prior to performing any work in the City right-of-way, the developer shall obtain a Right-of-way permit. FRANV~IMENO Associate Engineer C: City Engineer Bob Wojcik, Principal Civil Engineer 2 August 29, 1996 TO: MIKE GRIM, ASSOCIATE PLANNER FROM: Associate Engineer Quon VIA: Principal Civil Engineer 9/3/74 t7 LARRY RICHARDS, PRE 96-39 The following are comments from the Engineering Department relative to the applicant’s list of general concerns submitted with this Preliminary Review application: 1. Development of this site will require the developer to install street improvements to Carlsbad Boulevard along the property frontage. These improvements are to include curb, gutter, sidewalk, and paving to the ultimate width of the road. If the applicant so chooses, a request may be made to the City Engineer to defer these improvements through the execution of a Future Improvement Agreement, at which time the City will designate the value of these improvements using the Unit Price List for Estimating Subdivisions and Permit Bonds, published by the City of San Diego. 2. In general, a grading permit is required when excavations exceed four feet in depth, or fills exceed three feet in height, or cut and fill exceeds 100 cubic yards per each 8,000 square feet of graded area. 3. The property should be graded to drain in accordance with its existing natural course without causing impacts to surrounding properties. 4. It is possible that the top of curb elevation fronting this project will be higher than the proposed building pad elevation. This elevation difference should be taken into account when determining the final building pad elevation, driveway grades, and lot drainage. If the elevation of the lot is lower than the street, and drainage of the lot towards the street is desired, then methods such as installing a pump to drain to a below grade public storm drain may have to be utilized. Pumping drainage out of the face of curb is not allowed. 5. Given the general information provided in this application, this proposed project will not encroach into the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) High Hazard Zone, and a Special Use Permit will not be required. 6. Engineering fees which may be applicable to this project include the following: Bridge and Thoroughfare District Drainage Fees Future Improvement Agreement Grading Cash Deposit Grading Permit Fee Grading Plancheck Fee Improvement Inspection Fee Improvement Plancheck Fee Public Facilities Fee Public Facilities Fee Agreement Sewer Lateral Sewer Permit Traffic Impact Fees Water Service Connection Fee We suggest the applicant refer to the City’s Fee Schedule for determining the amount of each fee. 7. Development of this site will require a Coastal Development Permit issued by the California Coastal Commission. Additionally, a permit may be required from the State Lands Commission if work is proposed on State lands. These permits must be obtained prior to the City issuing any grading or building permits.
