Thank you for applying for Land Use Permits in the City of Carlsbad. The Planning Department
has reviewed your Coastal Development Permit, application no. CDP 98-05, as to its
completeness for processing.
The application is incomplete, as submitted. Attached are two lists. The first list is information
which must be submitted to complete your application. This list of items must be submitted
directly to your staff planner by appointment. AH list items must be submitted
simultaneously and a copy of this list must be included with your submittals. No processing
of your application can occur until the application is determined to be complete. The second list
is issues of concern to staff. When all required materials are submitted the City has 30 days to
make a determination of completeness. If the application is determined to be complete,
processing for a decision on the application will be initiated. In addition, please note that you
have six months from the date the application was initially filed, January 15, 1998, to either
resubmit the application or submit the required information. Failure to resubmit the application
or to submit the materials necessary to determine your application complete shall be deemed to
constitute withdrawal of the application. If an application is withdrawn or deemed withdrawn, a
new application must be submitted.
Please contact your staff planner, Michael Grim, at (760) 438-1161, extension 4499, if you have

subdivision from the requirements of the underlying zone. Please modify the tentative
map to conform to the R-l standards.
2. The proposed subdivision would intensify the potential development on the coastal bluff
top. These proposed lots could be severely constrained, considering the front yard
setback from Carlsbad Boulevard and the necessary bluff top setback. Additionally, the
creation of three dwellings instead of one increases the likelihood of impermeable
surfaces (such as roofs, decks and patios), thereby intensifying the amount of drainage.
Please submit a geotechnical study to show the developable area of each lot, based upon
bluff top setbacks, and the potential impacts, and any necessary mitigation, of increased
drainage on bluff stability.
Engineering:
1. Please refer to the Initial Issues Review letter for Minor Subdivision MS 98-01, dated
February 5, 1998, for the Engineering Department's issues of concern.
LIST OF ITEMS NEEDED
TO COMPLETE THE APPLICATION
No. CDP 98-05 - JENSEN TENTATIVE PARCEL MAP
Planning:
1. In accordance with Section 21.201.080(A)(2), any coastal development permit that
requires another discretionary approval cannot qualify as an Administrative Coastal
Permit. Since this subdivision requires a tentative parcel map, the Coastal Development
Permit must be a major permit. The corresponding fee for a 4 lot CDP is $1,000.00. The
fee received with CDP 98-05 was $175.00. Please submit the balance due ($825.00).
Mailing notices for the public hearing will be collected once the item is scheduled for the
Planning Commission.
Engineering:
1. The Preliminary Drainage Study was not included in the Engineering package.
2. Please indicate all easements and encumbrances, with the recordation number and
date, in accordance with the title report.
3. Please show any existing driveways, street lights, public improvements, fire hydrants,
etc.. which are adjacent to and across the street from this project.
5. Show street improvements, existing and proposed.
6. Show proposed method and path of drainage.
7. Include proposed grading plans.
8. Show proposed location of sewer, water and utility services, (keep meters and
laterals out of driveway)
Additionally, staff has conducted a review of the project for engineering issues of concern.
Please refer to Minor Subdivision 98-01 for further comments and issues.
ISSUES OF CONCERN
Planning:
1. The Planning Department cannot support the creation of a unbuildable lot for the
purposes of public access. The minimum lot width and street frontage for lots in the R-l,
Single Family Residential Zone is 60 feet. Staff can find nothing in the California Civil
Code Section 846 (as referenced in your application letter) that would exempt the
