Some of these Homeowner lots such as Open Space Area 2 will contain active and passive recreational facilities to serve the needs of the future residents of the Master Plan. Other Homeowner lots will consist of slopes between the various Planning Areas. The residential lots created by the Tentative Map will range ins size from 3500 square feet to over 9000 square feet.

Planned Development Permit The Planned Development Permit will allow for the creation of lots less than 7500 square feet in size.

The proposed number of units in each Planning Area is within 10% of the number estimated in the Master Plan therefore a Minor Master Plan Amendment is being processed with the proposed Tentative Map. Upon approval of the Tentative Map, the Master Plan Amendment Log, Chapter XIV will be revised to reflect the actual number of units approved in each Planning Area. Conditional Use Permit A Conditional Use Permit is being processed per the requirements of the Master Plan, which requires approval of a CUP for the site design and any structures in Open Space Area 2. the Village Green. The active and passive recreational facilities that will be provided in this area will satisfy the active and passive common recreational area requirements of Carlsbad's Planned Development Ordinance. Environmental Impact Assessment Part I The EIA Part I is being submitted in conformance with the City's requirements for environmental review of all major discretionary projects.
