LLC • Development Services Planning Division 1635 Faraday Avenue {760) 602-4610 www.carlsbadca.gov Please describe fully the proposed project by application type. Include any details necessary to adequately explain the scope and/or operation of the proposed project. You may also include any background information and supporting statements regarding the reasons for, or appropriateness of, the application. Use an addendum sheet if necessary. Description/Explanation: This application is for a "Planned Development Permit", "Coastal Development Permit" and a "Tentative Map". The site is located at 201 Wlanut Avenue and is bounded on three sides by Walnut Avenue, Garfield Street and Lincoln Street. To the south are existing single and multi-family residential. The property consist of .783 acres (34,107 s.f.) with a relatively flat grade. An existing residential duplex on Lincoln Street will be demolished and the remainder of the land is vacant. Four mature Canary Island Date Palms exist on Garfield and will be retained to maintain the existing streetscape context. The project consists of 14 Townhomes with attached 2 car garages. The units are three stories consisting of two and three bedrooms and range in size from 1 ,688 s.f. to 2,138 s.f. Passive common recreation areas are provided on site along with a gated motor court for access to the garages. Each unit has its front door and porch fronting on the street with a low fenced private yard and patio. In addition each unit has exterior ocean view terraces at level two and three. All of the structures are within the allowed 30' height limit consisting slab on grade wood frame construction. The architecture is based on a beach context consisting of white on white lapped wood siding, white detailed railings and trim, gray standing seam metal roofing and white framed aluminum clad wood windows. Level two and three ocean view terraces are accented with white arbors and trellises. Color accents are added at the doorways and entries. The landscaping continues the beach theme with planting comprised of coastal indigenous plants selected from a variety of textures, colors and form. The plant palette is low maintenance and is irrigated by a subsurface drip soaking system. The drip system insures uniform irrigation coverage for all planting areas and reduces water use by over 50% from normal applications. The hardscape includes enhanced paving with a "stoop" at each residential entrance. The vehicular paving design is based on recharging stormwater and nuisance water back into the local ground plane using porous pavers within the auto court. The residential units are enclosed at the street for privacy by a 66" highly durable polycarbonate fence in white tones. A smaller white picket fence (30") of the same materials enclose two common area landscapes at each corner intersection in compliance with traffic clear zones.

[4A'N~t t.J S P-1(0) Page4 of4 Revised 07/10 W.ASTS MANAGEMENT December 14, 2012 Mr. Hawkins, Waste Management is in receipt of your project design for the 14 unit townhome development at the corner of Walnut Avenue and Garfield in Carlsbad. After a review we find that we will be able to access the bins for service. However, we do have some concerns that need to be pointed out. On your current plan, the trash enclosure is at the end of a long driveway, with no exit access, except to back up and conduct a right angle turn before proceeding forward out onto the public right away. This is a safety concern due to the risk of pedestrians and vehicle traffic while having to perform backing. The second concern we have is the stability of the pavement in the area where our trucks need to travel. The weight of our vehicles can weigh up to 58,000 lbs., which is the legal maximum weight per California DOT. If the pavement is not built to standard and withstand the weight of these vehicles, damage may occur, and Waste Management will not be liable for the damage or repair of the driveways. We appreciated the chance to review the plan before your submittal. If you have any questions, please contact me at 760-754-4120.

The site plan you recently sent on February 5, 2013 has been reviewed by Waste Management and has been confirmed we can service this location from where you show the enclosure to be located. Please keep in mind we will most likely drive straight into the courtyard area of the complex and back up around the corner where the enclosure is located, service the bins and drive forward and turn right to exit the property.

Applicant Name and Address: AJTangsoc Walnut Beach Townhomes, LLC 550 West C Street San Diego, CA 92101 2. Off-Site or Combined Project Name: Tavarua Apartments 3. Description of Project with Inclusionary Housing Obligation: The project consists of 14 Townhomes with attached 2 car garages. The units are three stories consisting of two and three bedrooms and range in size from 1,688 s.f. to 2,138 s.f. Passive common recreation areas are provided on site along with a gated motor court for access to the garages. Each unit has its front door and porch fronting on the street with a fenced private yard and patio. In addition each unit has exterior ocean view terraces at level two and three. 4. Proposed On-Site Affordable Housing Project Description (if any): NA 5. Proposed Off-Site Project Description: Tavarua Apartments 6. Description of On-Site Project Constraints: Due to the proximity of the project to Carlsbad beach and Carlsbad Village, the town homes will warrant a commensurate value to this location. We are planning to sell these town homes from a range of $700,000 to $900,000 depending on the SF of the homes. With these homes being 2 bedrooms, an affordable home would have to sell for $195,000. If we were to take the lower price point of the projected sales price ($700,000}, that would mean that 201 Walnuts project would have to subsidize $505,000 per unit or 1,010,000 gross for the project. This would put the project in fmancial hardship and would threaten the viability of the project. Our initial projections have this project being able to move forward with paying $244,000 in inclusionary fees. As you know with this economy, it is very hard for numbers to pencil out and even with the $244,000 in our projection we are at our internal rate of return for our investors. If the project has to subsidize $1,010,000 in building 2 inclusionary units, it would push this project to an unacceptable margin with our investors. With that said, we are requesting that this project, because of its location, be approved to purchase two inclusionary credits within the city of Carlsbad in order to move forward with the project. .·.l~ "'' ~ ~ CITY OF DISCLOSURE STATEMENT P-1(A) Development Services Planning Division 1635 Faraday Avenue (760) 602-4610 www.carlsbadca.gov CARLSBAD Applicant's statement or disclosure of certain ownership interests on all applications which will require discretionary action on the part of the City Council or any appointed Board, Commission or Committee.

G Santa Maria, CA 93454 p 619.308.9333 F 619.308.9334 Reference: 201 Walnut Avenue Noise Analysis (RECON Number 6704) Dear Mr. Tangsoc: The proposed project is located at 201 Walnut Avenue in the city of Carlsbad, California, adjacent to Walnut Avenue between Garfield Street and Lincoln Street. The proposed project would construct 14 townhomes on a 5,000-square-foot lot. Figure 1 shows the regional location of the project, and Figure 2 shows an aerial photograph of the project vicinity. Figure 3 shows the proposed site plan. As requested, we have prepared this noise assessment to evaluate the potential for existing and future exterior noise levels at the project site to exceed 60 Community Noise Equivalent Level (CNEL). The City's noise contour map for the area indicates that the project site may be exposed to future noise levels greater than 65 CNEL due to nearby rail traffic and vehicle traffic on Carlsbad Boulevard. Therefore, the City has requested an assessment of noise levels at the project site. -·~ -.. * • .. • • .. -~· .. .,. ,....,. 1111 • Applicable Standards and Definition of Terms The noise descriptors used for this study are the 1-hour average-equivalent noise level (Leq[11), and the Community Noise Equivalent Level (CNEL). The 1-hour average-equivalent noise level (Leq<1>) is the level of a steady sound which, in the stated time period and at a stated location, has the same A-weighted sound energy as the time-varying sound. In other words, the hourly equivalent sound level is the A-weighted sound level over a 1-hour period. The CNEL is a 24-hour A- weighted average sound level from midnight to midnight obtained after the addition of 5 dB to sound levels occurring between 7:00P.M. and 10:00 P.M. and of 10 dB to the sound levels occurring between 10:00 P.M. and 7:00A.M. A-weighting is a frequency correction that often correlates well with the subjective response of humans to noise. The 5 dB and 10 dB penalties added to the evening and nighttime hours account for the added sensitivity of humans to noise during these time periods.

City of Carlsbad. Policy C.5 of the City of Carlsbad Noise Element states (City of Carlsbad 1994): ... sixty (60) dBA CNEL is the exterior noise level to which all residential units should be mitigated ... Interior noise levels should be mitigated to 45 dBA CNEL when openings to the exterior of the residence are open or closed. If openings are required to be closed to meet the interior noise standard, then mechanical ventilation shall be provided. Interior noise levels for multi-family residences are also regulated by Title 24 of the California Code of Regulations. California Code of Regulations. Title 24 of the California Code of Regulations requires for multi- family structures: 1207.11.2 Allowable interior noise levels. Interior noise levels attributable to exterior sources shall not exceed 45 dB in any habitable room. The noise metric shall be either the day-night average sound level (Ldn) or the CNEL consistent with the noise element of the local general plan .... Worst-case noise levels, either existing or future, shall be used as the basis for determining compliance with this section. Future noise levels shall be predicted for a period of at least 10 years from the time of building permit application. 1207.11.4 Other noise sources. Residential structures to be located where the Ldn or CN EL exceeds 60 dB shall require an acoustical analysis showing that the proposed design will limit exterior noise to the prescribed allowable interior level. 1207.12 Compliance .... If interior allowable noise levels are met by requiring that windows be unopenable or closed, the design for the structure must also specify a ventilation or air-conditioning system to provide a habitable interior environment. The ventilation system must not compromise the dwelling unit or guest room noise reduction. Existing Conditions and Noise Measurement Noise levels at the project site were measured in 2007 using one Larson-Davis Model 720 Type 2 Integrating Sound Level Meter, serial number 0274. The following parameters were used: Filter: Response: Time History Period: A-weighted Fast 5 seconds The meter was calibrated before the day's measurements. One ground-floor measurement (five feet above the ground) was taken for 20 minutes. The measurement was made adjacent to Walnut Avenue, as shown on Figure 2. A Coaster commuter train passby and aircraft overflights were Mr. AJ Tangsoc Page 6 May 25, 2012 noted during the measurement. but noise levels attributable to these events were minimal. Traffic on the adjacent roadways was also minimal, whereas traffic on Carlsbad Boulevard was free- flowing, but barely audible. The noise measurement was taken on the project site on Thursday, August 13, 2007, between the hours of 4:19P.M. and 4:39P.M. The weather was warm and sunny with no measurable wind. The on-site noise was due to background vehicle traffic on Carlsbad Boulevard, occasional vehicle traffic on Walnut Avenue and the adjacent cross streets, aircraft including a helicopter, and a passing Coaster commuter train at high speed. The noise measurement data are contained in Attachment 1 . During the 20-minute measurement period, the average noise level was 54.0 dB(A) Leq· During the Coaster passby, the average noise level was 47.3 dB(A) Leq over the 10-second passby period, which equates to a sound exposure level (SEL) of 57.3 dB(A). Figure 4 shows a plot of the noise measurement. As seen in Figure 4, the Coaster passby is not easily discernable from the overall ambient noise. The most distinct noise source measured was a helicopter flying near the project site. Assessment of Future Noise Levels Rail Traffic As indicated, the measured noise levels include free-flowing traffic on Carlsbad Boulevard and limited rail activity. The rail activity observed during the measurement was a single Coaster commuter train passby. Other rail traffic that uses the tracks, but that was not observed during the measurement interval, includes Amtrak passenger trains and Burlington Northern-Santa Fe freight trains. While the Coaster runs only during commuting hours (approximately between 5:30 A.M. and 7:30P.M.), this other rail traffic occurs throughout the day, evening, and night. Since Amtrak or freight train noise was not measured at the project site, a comparison of Coaster noise was made with other noise measurement data in RECON's database as follows: 1. Noise measurements taken for the Poinsettia Shores project in the City of Carlsbad (RECON 1997) show a Coaster passby average noise level of 72.8 dB(A) over a 20- second passby interval, and an Amtrak passby average noise level as high as 80.0 dB(A) over a 30-second passby interval (both measurements were taken at a distance of approximately 1 00 feet from the tracks). These can be converted into S E Ls over a one- second interval, which equate to SELs of 85.8 and 94.8 dB(A) at approximately 100 feet for the Coaster and Amtrak passbys, respectively. 2. For a project in the city of San Diego, noise levels for an Amtrak passenger train passby and a freight train passby were calculated to be 101.5 and 110 dB(A) SEL, respectively, at a distance of 45 feet from the tracks (RECON 2007). Using this measurement and analysis data, it can be inferred that the SEL for a freight train passby is approximately 8.5 decibels louder than an Amtrak passby, which is approximately 9 decibels louder than a Coaster passby. Based on the measured Coaster passby SEL of 57.3 dB(A) at the project site, this would result in anticipated Amtrak and freight train passby SELs at the project site of 66.3 and 74.8 dB(A). respectively. Based on the Pacific Surfliner (Amtrak) schedule, a northbound and southbound train could pass the project site in a single one-hour period. Although the schedule for freight trains is not consistent, it is unlikely that more than one freight train would pass by the project site in a single hour. Therefore, if a freight train were to also e e ~ dB(A) n 0 ww.:::...:::..0101CT>CT>-.....J-.....J 001001001001001 iZ 16:19:30 V> A ~ I 16:20:25 ~ ::; '3 J5 ;; I 16:21:20 ~ ~ '2.

Mr. AJ Tangsoc Page 8 May 25, 2012 pass by the project site during the same hour as two Amtrak trains, the overall hourly average Leq due to Amtrak and freight trains at the project site would be 40.3 dB(A) based on the following formula: L6q(l) = SEL + 10 X log(numer of n"B'nts per hour) -10 x log(number of seconds per hour) Further, during rush hour, a maximum of four Coaster passbys could occur during a single one- hour period. Using the formula above, the maximum hourly average Leq at the project site due to Coaster passby noise would be 27.8 dB(A). Therefore, if all of this rail traffic were to occur in a single hour (e.g., 7 train passbys). the combined Amtrak, freight train, and Coaster worst-case hourly Leq at the project site would be 40.5 dB(A). If it were (unrealistically, but conservatively) assumed that this average hourly rail noise level was to occur every hour in a 24-hour period, the resulting rail traffic noise level would be 4 7.2 CNEL at the project site, computed using the following formula: ( ~ ~'8+5 night+11l) 12 X 10 ill + 3 X 10---rD + 9 X 10 ill CNEL = 10 x log 24 ' Where, day= daytime Leq(1l eve = evening Leq(1) night= nighttime Leq(1) Roadway Traffic As indicated, the average measured noise level on the project site during the 20-minute measurement interval was 54.0 dB(A) Leq· Subtracting out the Coaster passby noise still results in an average hourly noise level of 54.0 dB(A) Leq (i.e., the single Coaster passby did not substantially influence the overall measured average noise level). It is assumed that this "remaining" noise is due primarily to background traffic noise levels and is representative of the average hourly daytime noise level due to traffic. The day, evening, and nighttime vehicle traffic distribution was assumed to be 77 percent, 10 percent, and 13 percent, respectively. With these assumptions, the CNEL due to traffic is approximately two decibels above the average daytime hourly equivalent noise level. The existing daytime noise level was converted to a CNEL value by this method. Therefore, the resulting existing CNEL at the project site due to traffic noise is approximately 56 CNEL. Existing and future traffic volumes on Carlsbad Boulevard were obtained from the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) Traffic Forecast Information Center (TFIC). The TFIC contains traffic volume forecast data for years 2008, 2020, 2035, and 2050. Carlsbad Boulevard carried 19,200 average daily traffic (ADT) in 2008 and is projected to carry 17,800 ADT in 2020, 21,900 in 2035, and 23,400 ADT in 2050 (SANDAG 2012). For a worst-case analysis, a future Mr. AJ Tangsoc Page 9 May 25, 2012 traffic volume of 23,400 ADT was used. This would represent an increase in vehicle traffic noise of less than one decibel, as shown by the equation below. !l = 10 X log ( AI11'/u"'n) = 10 X log (za.~Do) = 0 .B6 dB 1401' IZIStlllg 19.~DO Although vehicle counts were not taken during the noise measurement, even if future traffic volumes were double those that occurred during the measurement. this would result in a three- decibel increase in the measured traffic noise and future noise levels at the project site due to traffic would remain less than 60 CNEL (a doubling in traffic volume from that which occurred during the measurements would result in a traffic noise level of 59 CNEL at the project site). Combined Noise Levels As discussed, worst-case anticipated noise levels on the project site due to rail traffic are anticipated to be less than 47.2 CNEL. Even if future traffic volumes on the area roadways were double those that occurred during the noise measurement (actual traffic volumes are anticipated to increase only by approximately 22 percent). future traffic noise levels on the project site are anticipated to be less than 59 CNEL. Combining these worst-case rail and vehicle traffic noise levels result in a total noise level of 59.3 CN EL on the project site. As such, even with the conservative assumptions used in this assessment, it is anticipated that future noise levels on the project site will be within the City's exterior noise level of 60 CNEL. Since exterior noise levels are projected to be less than 60 CNEL, an interior noise analysis is not required to meet the City or State Building Code requirements. Furthermore, standard residential construction techniques will provide 15 to 20 dB reduction of exterior noise levels to an interior receiver. Therefore, future interior noise levels at the project site can be assumed to be 45 CNEL or less due to exterior sources.

List of Figures 4-Woy Site Location Mop Site ond Site Vicinity Pion Photographic Plates Appendices Phase I Environmental Site Assessment iii SCS ENGINEERS \ e Walnut Beach Townhomes, LLC SCS ENGINEERS 1 BACKGROUND Based on our conversations, a review of our in-house databases, and information provided by the Client, SCS understands that the Site consists of approximately 0.75 acre ofland in Carlsbad, California. The Site currently consists of a two-unit residential structure and vacant land. It was reported that the Client currently owns and is proposing to redevelop the Site. Redevelopment plans were reported to conceptually include the demolition of the current Site building and the construction of new residential buildings; however, specific redevelopment plans (e.g., number of buildings, building locations, soil balance, etc.) were not reported to SCS by the Client. A review of our in-house Win2Data database provided the following information in connection with the Site: APN Address Description 204-131-01 No address listed The land use if this parcel is listed as "residential acreage." 204-131-01 No address listed The land use if this parcel is listed as "residential acreage." 204-131-03 3335 to 3345 Lincoln Street This parcel is reported to be developed with a "duplex" building, which encompasses 1,61 0 square feet and which was constructed circa 1959. A review ofthe County of San Diego Department of Environmental Health (DEH) Hazardous Materials Management Division (HMMD) HE-17 database of facilities storing hazardous materials, generating hazardous wastes, and discharging unauthorized releases, dated September 2010, indicated that there is no regulatory file associated with the Site or properties adjacent to the Site. A review of a FirstSearch Report indicated that a number of facilities store or use hazardous materials, generate hazardous wastes, or have leaking underground storage tanks (LUSTs) in the Site vicinity. Please note that relevant facilities were investigated as part of this Assessment. 2 STANDARDS BACKGROUND This Assessment was conducted in general accordance with the following: • Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), 40 CFR Part 312, Standards and Practices for All Appropriate Inquiries; Final Rule (AAI); • American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) Standard Practice for Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Process E1527-05; and • The scope, conditions, and limitations of Exhibit 00. The Client understands that the above-referenced EPA and ASTM standards were not developed to identify all environmental risk to property. The standards were developed to allow a user (Client) to qualify for the innocent purchaser defense, bona fide prospective purchaser defense, Phose I Environmental Site Assessment 1 ' e Walnut Beach Townhomes, LLC SCS ENGINEERS and contiguous property owner defense to the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA, a.k.a Superfund) liability. This Assessment is intended to constitute an appropriate inquiry into the previous ownership and uses of the property consistent with good commercial or customary practice, as part of the due diligence process required by CERCLA, the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1986 (SARA), and the Small Business Liability Relief and Brownfields Revitalization Act of 2002 (Acts). Please note that this Assessment may initially qualify the Client for a CERCLA defense; however, after purchase, there may be "continuing obligations" that must be implemented in order to preserve this defense through the term of property ownership. There may be additional requirements under state law that also apply. The Client should contact qualified legal counsel regarding matters of liability, interpretation of the Acts, and potential continuing obligations. While it is outside the scope of this Assessment, SCS would be pleased to work with your legal counsel to develop and implement a strategy to preserve your CERCLA liability defenses through the term of your ownership. This Assessment focused on potential sources of hazardous substances and petroleum products that could be considered a recognized environmental condition1'2 and liability due to their presence in significant concentrations (e.g., above acceptable limits set by the federal, state, or local government) or due to the potential for exposure and risk due to contaminant migration and complete exposure pathways (e.g., soil vapor inhalation or groundwater ingestion). Materials that contain substances that are not currently deemed hazardous by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) or the California EPA (Cal-EPA) were not considered as part of this Assessment. Unless specifically included in SCS's scope of services, lead in drinking water, urea formaldehyde, and pressure-treated lumber are not considered in this Report, nor are building issues such as fire safety, indoor air quality (with the possible exception of vapor intrusion), mold, or similar matters. SCS did not evaluate the Site for compliance with land use, zoning, wetlands, or similar laws. This Assessment also excludes regulatory compliance, cultural and historic resources, industrial hygiene, health and safety, ecological resources, endangered species, and high-voltage power lines. This Report is not intended to be an environmental compliance audit. Hazardous substances occurring naturally in plants, soils, and rocks (e.g., heavy metals, naturally occurring asbestos, or radon) are not typically considered in these investigations. Similarly, construction debris (e.g., discarded concrete, asphalt) is not considered, unless obvious 1 Recognized environmental conditions, as defined by ASTM, include the presence or likely presence of hazardous substances or petroleum products on a property that indicate an existing release, a past release, or a material threat of release of any hazardous substances or petroleum products into structures on the property or into the ground, groundwater, or surface water on the property. However, the term is not intended to include de minimis conditions. A condition considered de minimis is not a recognized environmental condition. 2 De minimis condition. An environmental condition that does not generally present a material risk of harm to the public health or the environment and that generally would not be subject to an enforcement action if brought to the attention of appropriate governmental agencies. Phase I Environmental Site Assessment 2 e Walnut Beach Townhomes, LLC SCS ENGINEERS indications suggest that hazardous substances are likely to be present in significant concentrations or likely to migrate. An evaluation of business environmental risk associated with a parcel of commercial real estate may necessitate investigation beyond that included herein. 3 OBJECTIVE The objective of the scope of services was to assess the likelihood3 that recognized environmental conditions are present at the Site as a result of the current or historical Site land use or from a known and reported off-Site source. 4 SCOPE OF SERVICES The scope of services designed and conducted to meet the objective was as follows: • Site Reconnaissance, Site Research, Interviews, and User Requirements; • Topography, Geology, Soils, Hydrogeology, and Water Quality Survey; • Site Vicinity Reconnaissance and Off-Site Source Survey; • Historical Site and Site Vicinity Land Use Review; • Identification of Data Gaps; and • Data Evaluation, Figure Preparation, and Assessment Report Preparation. SITE RECONNAISSANCE On May 17, 2012, SCS personnel conducted a Site reconnaissance to observe and document existing Site conditions.1 The general Site location is shown in Figure 1, and a Site and Site vicinity plan is shown in Figure 2. Selected color photographs of the Site and Site vicinity are presented as Figures 3a through 3d. The Site grounds and Site perimeters were systematically traversed on foot during the Site reconnaissance. Interior access to the Site building was not available during the Site reconnaissance. However, based on SCS's experience with assessments conduct at residential buildings, hazardous materials are typically limited to small retail quantities (SRQs t of general household cleaning and maintenance chemicals. 3 Statements of"likelihood" are made in this Report, based on the professional judgment ofSCS. A description of likelihood statements, as made in this Report, is included on page 16. 4 Quantities of hazardous materials in containers of 5 gallon or less, and less than 50 gallons in aggregate.

SITE RESEARCH DEH File Review A review of the DEH HMMD HE-17 database of facilities storing hazardous materials, generating hazardous wastes, and discharging unauthorized releases, dated September 20 10, indicated that there is no regulatory file associated with the Site. In addition, the DEH was contactedii (see endnotes, you have 2 endnotes for this reference) and indicated that there are no regulatory files associated with the Site. Previous Assessment and Subsurface Assessments SCS previously prepared a report entitled, Phase I Environmental Site Assessment, Assessor's Parcel Numbers (APNs) 204-131-01, -02, and -03, 3335 and 3345 Lincoln Street, Carlsbad, California, dated March 7, 2007. This report provided the following conclusion: • "Based on a review of available information, agricultural activities were interpreted to have taken place at the Site and Site vicinity from prior to 1928 to circa 1953. The agricultural activity is interpreted to have taken place at the time that organochlorine pesticides (e.g., DDT and chlordane), toxic metals, and others were in wide general use. If the Site was, in fact, used for agricultural purposes, there is a moderate likelihood that residual concentrations of organochlorine pesticides and metals are present in the shallow surface soil beneath the Site." To assess the above-referenced potential recognized environmental condition, SCS conducted limited soil sampling activities at the Site. SCS prepared a report entitled, Limited Soil Sampling, 3335 to 3345 Lincoln Street, Carlsbad, California, dated April4, 2007. This report provided the following conclusions: • "Soil samples from three shallow soil borings collected at Site were analyzed for organochlorine pesticides (in general accordance with EPA Method 8081A) and selected Phase I Environmental Site Assessment 5 e Walnut Beach Townhomes, LLC SCS ENGINEERS toxic metals (lead, copper, and arsenic) (in general accordance with EPA Method 6010B)." • "Organochlorine pesticides were not detected (above laboratory detection limits) in the soil samples analyzed." • "Concentrations of arsenic ranged from 2.34 to 2.84 mg/kg [milligrams per kilogram], concentrations of copper ranged from 2.24 mg/kg to 3.82 mg/kg, and concentrations of lead ranged from 4.10 mg/kg to 8.59 mg/kg." • "Reported concentrations of arsenic exceed residential PRGs [preliminary remediation goals] and CHHSLs [California Human Health Screening Levels], but are below or within typical background ranges for the western United States and below hazardous waste criteria." • "The highest reported concentration of copper (3.82 mglkg) is below typical background ranges for the western Unites States, hazardous waste criteria, CHHSLs, and PRGs for residential properties." • "The highest reported concentration of lead (8.59 mglkg) is below typical background ranges for the western Unites States, hazardous waste criteria, CHHSLs, and PRGs for residential properties." Fire Department Records Review The City of Carlsbad (CFD) was contacted regarding hazardous materials/waste or underground storage tank (UST) records for the Site. The CFD reported that they have no records associated with the Site. Building Department Records Review Carlsbad Building Department (CBD) records were requested for the Site. The CBD reported that they have no records associated with the Site. INTERVIEWS The above-referenced EPA and ASTM standards require that attempts be made to conduct interviews with past and present owners and occupants of the Site to obtain information indicating recognized environmental conditions in connection with the Site. As part of this Assessment, the following contacts were interviewed. Contact Affiliation to Site Description Interview Date Mr. Alphonse T angsoc Current owner Discussed below and in the May 21, 2012 User's Requirements section below Ms. Maria Garcia Neighbor Discussed below May 17,2012 Phase I Environmental Site Assessment 6 e Walnut Beach Townhomes, LLC SCS ENGINEERS Contad AHiliation to Site Description Interview Date Mr. Jeremy McAbee Neighbor Discussed below May 17,2012 Mr. Tangsoc stated d that he was not aware of environmental cleanup liens or activity and use limitations (e.g., engineering controls, deed restrictions) that have been recorded for the Site. He was not aware of pending or threatened litigation or administrative proceedings relevant to hazardous substances or petroleum products in, on, or from the Site. He was not aware of notices from governmental entities regarding possible violations of environmental laws or possible liability relating to hazardous substances or petroleum products at the Site. Ms. Maria Garcia has been living at the property adjacent to the northeast of the Site for 12 years. Ms. Garcia indicated that the Site has been always used for residential purposes and that she was not aware of hazardous materials and petroleum products were use or storage at the Site or hazardous wastes generation at the Site. Also, to her knowledge, there have been no releases of hazardous materials, petroleum products, and/or hazardous waste at the Site. Mr. Jeremy McAbee has been living in the property adjacent to the northeast of the Site for 8 years. Mr. McAbee indicated that the Site has been always used for residential purposes and that she was not aware of hazardous materials and petroleum products were use or storage at the Site or hazardous wastes generation at the Site. Also, to her knowledge, there have been no releases of hazardous materials, petroleum products, and/or hazardous waste at the Site. USER REQUIREMENTS In order to qualify for one of the landowner liability protections offered by the Small Business Liability Relief and Brownfields Revitalization Act of 2001 (discussed in the Background section above), 40 CFR Part 312 requires that the user (Client) provide the following information to the environmental professional. Mr. Alphonse Tangsoc, completed the User Questionnaire on May 21, 2012. The following table summarizes the responses by the Client. Question Response Have environmental cleanup liens been filed or recorded against the Site? No Are activity or land use limitations in place at the Site, or have they been filed or recorded No in the registry? Does the user have specialized knowledge or experience in connection with the Site? No Does the purchase price being paid for the Site reasonably reflect the fair market value of NA the Site? Is the Client aware of commonly known or reasonably ascertainable information about the No Site, which would indicate releases or threatened releases? Are there obvious indications that point to the presence of contamination at the Site? No Notes: NA: Not applicable, the User currently owns the Site Phase I Environmental Site Assessment 7 e Walnut Beach Townhomes, LLC SCS ENGINEERS DATA GAPS IN CONNECTION WITH CURRENT SITE LAND USE Based on observations and research, and with the possible exceptions discussed below, there are no obvious indications of data gaps in connection with the current Site land use: • SCS attempted to obtain contact information for previous owners and tenants of the Site (through city directories, building department records, interviews, etc.); however, the research did not yield useable contact information (what about asking the Client). • Interior access to the Site building was not available during the Site reconnaissance. However, based on SCS's experience with assessments conduct at residential buildings, hazardous materials are typically limited to small retail quantities (SRQs) of general household cleaning and maintenance chemicals. Findings and Opinions-Current Site Land Use Based on observations and research, there is a low likelihood that a recognized environmental condition exists at the Site as a result of the current Site land use. Although not considered a recognized environmental condition, SCS has provided the following conclusions and recommendations in connection with the possible presence of asbestos containing materials (ACMs) and lead paints below. SCS understands that the Site is proposed to be redeveloped, which includes the demolition of the current Site building. Based on the reported date of construction for the Site building (circa 1959) and applicable regulation, we recommend performing an asbestos and lead paint survey at the Site buildings prior to demolition. Please note that in accordance with local requirements and regulations, and the U.S. EPA's National Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESSHAPS) 40 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 61, Sub-part M, Section 61.145, Standards for Demolition and Renovation, asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) must be removed from a building prior to demolition. In addition, lead paint may need to be abated and/or stabilized prior to demolition. This should be done by a licensed and qualified contractor in accordance with applicable regulations. If ACMs are found to be present, SCS strongly recommends the Client retain a third-party company, reporting directly to the Client as the Client's representative, to monitor the performance of the selected abatement contractor and the quality of work, and to "clear" the spaces upon completion of the abatement. In addition, bidding specifications should be prepared which provide performance standards for abatement requirements.

Local, state, and federal regulatory databases were reviewed for the Site and for those facilities within up to one mile of the Site. The FirstSearch report was reported to have been prepared in general accordance with the ASTM standard for the regulatory database review for Phase I Environmental Site Assessments. The locations of the referenced facilities relative to the Site are shown on FirstSearch's "Map of Sites within One Mile," which is included in its report. A description of the various databases, as well as the date each database was most recently updated, is included in the FirstSearch report. The FirstSearch report is included in the Appendix to this Report. Based on a review of the FirstSearch report, the following table summarizes the facilities within the selected search radii and whether the Site or a facility that was interpreted to be adjacent to the Site was listed on each database. Federal or State Government Database Search Number of On Site Adjacent Radius Reported to the Site Facilities 1.00 mile 0 No No Comprehensive Environmental Response 0.50 mile 0 No No 5 Adjacent is defined by ASTM El527-05 as any real property the border of which is contiguous or partially contiguous with that of the Site or would be contiguous or partially contiguous with that of the Site but for a street, road, or other public thoroughfare separating them.

Off-Site facilities listed in the database report were evaluated as to their potential to impact the Site. The databases included in the FirstSearch report can be grouped into two general categories: databases reporting unauthorized releases of hazardous substances or petroleum products (e.g., Leaking Underground Storage Tanks, RCRA Corrective Action facilities, National Priorities List [a.k.a. Superfund] sites) and databases reporting permitted hazardous materials users and hazardous waste generators, for which a release has not been reported to, and recorded by, the regulatory agency. SCS evaluated each of the off-Site facilities listed in the database report as to their potential to impact the Site, based on the following factors: Phase I Environmental Site Assessment 11 e Walnut Beach Townhomes, LLC SCS ENGINEERS The bullets below are formatted correctly, they should be moved more to the left. • Reported distance of the facility from the Site;6 • The nature of the database on which the facility is listed, and/or whether the facility was listed on a database reporting unauthorized releases of hazardous materials, petroleum products, or hazardous wastes; • Reported case type (e.g., soil only, failed UST test only); • Reported substance released (e.g., chlorinated solvents, gasoline, metals); • Reported regulatory agency status (e.g., case closed, "no further action"); and/or • Location of the facility with respect to the reported groundwater flow direction (discussed in the Hydrogeology section of this Report). Based on one or more of the factors listed above, there is a low likelihood that the off-Site facilities listed in the regulatory database report represent recognized environmental conditions in connection with the Site. FirstSearch listed seven facilities as being orphans, which are facilities for which FirstSearch does not have sufficient information to accurately locate them on a map. Based on a review of the orphans, it is interpreted that none of the facilities are within requisite search radii for their reported database listings. California Division of Oil and Gas SCS personnel reviewed the California Division of Oil and Gas (DOG) Map regarding oil and gas well locations within 1 mile of the Site.v There were no wells interpreted to be located within a one-mile radius of the Site. DATA GAPS IN CONNECTION WITH OFF-SITE SOURCES Based on the Site vicinity reconnaissance and off-Site source survey, there are no obvious indications of data gaps in connection with off-Site sources. Findings and Opinions-Off-Site Source Survey Based on the off-Site source survey, several facilities in the Site vicinity were reported to have had releases of hazardous materials/waste or petroleum products. However, there is a low likelihood that a recognized environmental condition exists at the Site as a result of known and reported releases of hazardous materials/wastes or petroleum products from an off-Site source. This judgment is based on one or more of the following: reported regulatory status (e.g., case 6 Based on studies by the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) for distribution and remediation of methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE) in groundwater, on the average, approximately 94 percent ofthe MTBE plumes studied in detail (as measured by MTBE in a concentration of20 micrograms per liter [IJ.g/L]) did not extend more than approximately 400 feet from the source, while approximately 89 percent of the benzene plumes (as measured by benzene in a concentration of 1 IJ.g/L) extended less than 400 feet. Therefore, the detailed review radius for open groundwater cases has been conservatively established by SCS at 0.20 mile (approximately 1,000 feet). For non-release cases (e.g., permitted facilities), only those facilities that were judged to be immediately adjacent to the Site were interpreted to have the potential to represent a recognized environmental condition.

With the possible exception ofhistorical agricultural site vicinity land use (discussed in the Previous Assessment and Subsurface Assessments section above section above), no obvious historical facilities, features of concern, or land uses indicative of the use, storage, or generation of hazardous materials/wastes or petroleum products were found in the historical resources reviewed. DATA GAPS IN CONNECTION WITH THE HISTORICAL SITE LAND USE Readily available historical information was limited, and information was not available that would provide 5-year data intervals between the following years: 1929 and 1945. Based on the corroborating data from the historical information reviewed (i.e., the Site was interpreted to have been used for agricultural purposes in both of these years), SCS judged it likely that the historical Phase I Environmental Site Assessment 14 e Walnut Beach Townhomes, LLC SCS ENGINEERS Site land use during this time period was not significantly different from the interpretation presented in the table above. Readily available historical information was not available prior to 1928. Thus, SCS is unable to determine the Site usage from the date of first development as recommended by ASTM. Based on our experience and available historical information, the Site was interpreted to have possibly first been developed for agricultural use (prior to 1928). Findings and Opinions-Historical Site and Site Vicinity Land Use Based on a review of historical resources and the findings of previous subsurface assessment activities conducted at the Site (discussed in the XX section above), there is a low likelihood that a recognized environmental condition exists at the Site as a result of a release of hazardous materials/wastes or petroleum products from a known or interpreted historical Site or Site vicinity land use. 5 CONCLUSION This Assessment has been conducted by an environmental professional whose qualifications 7 were made known to the Client. The conclusion presented below is based on the review of readily available data obtained as part of this Assessment, current regulatory guidelines, the Site and Site vicinity reconnaissance, and SCS's experience. SCS has performed a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment of 3335 and 3345 Lincoln Street, Carlsbad, California, in general conformance with the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) Standard Practice for Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Process E 1527-05 and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), 40 CFR Part 312, Standards and Practices for All Appropriate Inquiries; Final Rule (AAI). Any exceptions to, or deletions from, the ASTM and AAI Scope ofWork were previously described in this Report where applicable. There is a low likelihood that recognized environmental conditions are present at the Site as a result of the current or historical Site land use or from a known and reported off-Site source. 6 REPORT USAGE AND FUTURE SITE CONDITIONS This Report is intended for the sole usage of the Client and other parties designated by SCS. The methodology used during this Assessment was in general conformance with the requirements of the Client and the specifications and limitations presented in the Agreement between the Client and SCS.

Phase I Environmental Site Assessment 15 .. e Walnut Beach Townhomes, LLC SCS ENGINEERS subject to the provisions of the Agreement between the Client and SCS. Any misuse of or reliance upon the Report shall be without risk or liability to SCS. Assessments are qualitative, not comprehensive, in nature and may not identify all environmental problems or eliminate all risk. For every property, but especially for properties in older downtown or urban areas, it is possible for there to be unknown, unreported recognized environmental conditions, underground storage tanks, or other features of concern that might become apparent through demolition, construction, or excavation activities, etc. In addition, the scope of services for this project was limited to those items specifically named in the scope of services for this Report. Environmental issues not specifically addressed in the scope of services for this project are not included in this Report. Land use, condition of the properties within the Site, and other factors may change over time. The information and conclusions of this Report are judged to be relevant at the time the work described in this Report was conducted. This Report should not be relied upon to represent future Site conditions unless a qualified consultant familiar with the practice of Phase I Environmental Site Assessments in the County of San Diego is consulted to assess the necessity of updating this Report. The property owners at the Site are solely responsible for notifying all governmental agencies and the public of the existence, release, or disposal of any hazardous materials/wastes or petroleum products at the Site, whether before, during, or after the performance of SCS services. SCS assumes no responsibility or liability for any claim, loss of property value, damage, or injury that results from hazardous materials/wastes or petroleum products being present or encountered within the Site. Although this Assessment has attempted to assess the likelihood that the Site has been impacted by a hazardous material/waste release, potential sources of impact may have escaped detection for reasons that include, but are not limited to: 1) inadequate or inaccurate information rightfully provided to SCS by third parties, such as public agencies and other outside sources; 2) the limited scope of this Assessment; and 3) the presence of undetected, unknown, or unreported environmental releases. 7 LIKELIHOOD STATEMENTS Statements of "likelihood" have been made in this report.

I will take the Walnut project to the Housing Policy Team to ensure that it is OK for them to purchase credits. Until we set the credit price for Tavarua, we can't have the project conditioned to purchase credits in Tavarua. That project has not gone to Council yet to make it a combined project and to set the fee. Right now, the only project is Roosevelt Street and it is oversubscribed. We will just need to condition them to purchase in Roosevelt if credits are avaible when they pull their building permits. We could add a statement that they will need an alternate solution if the credits are not available in Roosevelt, which may include an alternate combined project, if one is made available at the time they pull their building permits. Once Tavarua has completed construction and the lease up has started, we will go to Council to set the fee and allow projects to specifically designate it to meet their inclusionary. We can't do that before that time, however.

'(~ CITY OF ,~CARLSBAD Memorandum January 14, 2013 To: Greg Fisher, Planner From: Tecla Levy, Associate Engineer Re: CT 12-03/CDP 12-17/PUD 12-06-201 Walnut Townhomes Land Development Engineering staff has completed the second review of the above application submittal documents for completeness. The application documents submitted for this project is complete. Prior to next submittal, it is suggested the following items are adequately addressed: Issues of concern: 1. The Geotechnical Update letter dated November 30, 2012 by Hetherington Engineering, Inc. did not verify the type of soil to validate the type A soil used in bioretention BMP sizing calculations provided in the SWMP report and did not provide soils infiltration rate (see previous comments under item 1, incomplete items). Please obtain the requested information from the soils engineer. The soils engineer must also provide design recommendations for the proposed bioretention basins shown on the site plan. 2. Item llb, Site Drainage, on page 8 of the geotechnical update letter, states that the drainage should not be allowed to pond behind walls or adjacent to structures. Based on the site plan all proposed bioretention basins appear to be adjacent to structures. Please obtain clarifications from the soil engineer if the proposed bioretention locations are acceptable. Per the SWMP report, proposed bioretention basins are designed as infiltration basins where storm run-off is allowed to pond and infiltrate into the type A native soil. At locations where infiltration of run-off is not allowed by the soils engineer, the soils engineer may require impermeable liners for bioretention. In this case, the IMP sizing calculations must be revised to assume flow-through planter design in the BMP sizing calculator. This can significantly impact your current design. Flow through planters requires storage volume, V2, and an orifice for flow control. An underground private storm drain may be needed to capture the flow from V2. There are no existing public storm drain system along the adjacent streets, so any proposed private storm drain system may need to be extended to the nearest public storm drain system along Walnut Avenue. 3. On sheet 1 of the slope analysis sheet, clearly show the existing lot lines, APN numbers, areas and provide dimensions and bearings of the project boundary. Identify street right-of- ways for Walnut Street, Lincoln street and Garfield Street. Community & Economic Development 1635 Faraday Ave. I Carlsbad, CA 92008 I 760-602-2710 I 760-602-8560 fax I www.carlsbadca.gov e CT 12-03/CDP 12-17/PUD 12-06-201 Walnut Townhomes January 14, 2013 Page 2 4. On sheet 1 of the site plan, provide a detail of the proposed bioretention overflow and outlet structures. 5. On sheet 1 and sheet 2 of the site plan, label all proposed IMPs/BMPs. Clarify which bioretention basins are combined as one IMP/BMP per the SWMP calculations. 6. On sheet 1, it is not clear how the roof run-off from units 8 and 9 are routed to IMP3. Please show locations of roof drains and drainage arrows. 7. As previously commented and discussed at a meeting with the engineer, the bioretentions combined as one IMP/BMP must have the same bottom elevations in order to function as one IMP. This is to ensure run-off is proportionately distributed to all bioretention basins included in one IMP. However, the revised site plan shows individual bioretention basins have different bottom elevations. As a result, some bioretention basins may not be adequate to handle the flow while some may be oversized, depending on their tributary drainage area. For instance, per the SWMP report and the site plan, the IMP1 consists of three bioretention basins: A18, A25 and A32. Based on the site plan, the drainage area that directly drains into A18 is three times larger than the areas draining into A32. In addition, A18 has a much smaller area (only 1/6th of A32 area}. Obviously, A18 is very inadequate to handle its large tributary drainage area. Combining A18, A25, and A32 will solve the deficiency problem, however, A18, A25 and A32 must have the same bottom elevations and pending depths in order to evenly distribute the water quality run-off from the entire Basin A. The 100-year storm discharge from one bioretention basin must not be routed to another bioretention basin (i.e. 100 year event discharge from A18 should not flow into basin A25}. The proposed IMP system must consist of two pipe systems: 1} A pipe system that connects the bottom of the bioretention basins to distribute the water quality run-off, 2} A by-pass pipe system to carry the 100 year storm event run-off. Show the ultimate discharge point on the site plan. See comments on the red-lined site plans sheet 2 and 3. 8. SWMP indicates that IMP3/BMP3 includes six bioretention basins: C16, C23, C28, C33, C38 and C42. The cross section F on sheet 2 shows significant difference in elevation (about 4 feet} between highest (C16} and lowest (C38} bioretention basins. In this case, it may be necessary to divide IMP3 into 3 separate IMPs and divide DMAs into 3 proportional tributary areas in order to create IMPs containing bioretention basins with the same bottom elevations. (see red-lined comments on sheet 2}. 9. The hydrology report indicates that the post-development storm water discharge (Q} will exceed the pre development condition. Please provide on-site mitigation for this increase in CT 12-03/CDP 12-17/PUD,-06-201 Walnut Townhomes January 14, 2013 Page 3 100 year storm event runoff or provide hydrology and hydraulic calculations to show that downstream drainage facilities have the capacity for this increase in 100 year storm event runoff. 10. The kirpich formula was used in the initial time of concentration calculations for the 100 year event, post development Q. However, Kirpich formula is applicable only for natural watersheds. Please revise calculations using appropriate formula. Please see also the red- lined comments in the hydrology report regarding time of concentration Tc calculations. 11. The hydrology map included in the hydrology report is very small and hard to read. Please include an enlarged and legible hydrology map showing all drainage sub-basins, drainage arrows/path, length of travel and areas. Provide overall pre-development Q and post- development Q comparison for this project. 12. On sheet 3 of the site plan, show/delineate the boundary of drainage management areas (DMAs) that drain into each bioretention basin. Also delineate the overall boundary of each IMP/BMP (see comments on the red-lined site plans). 13. On sheet 2, revise outlet structures top of grate elevations to provide adequate pending with a minimum of 10". Ensure that required pending volumes from the BMP sizing calculations are met. 14. The bioretention detail shown on sheet 3 of the site plan should include a detail of an outlet structure. Please revise. 15. One ofthe justifications provided in the waiver request letter for engineering standard 4.1.8 dated October B, 2012 by Pasco Laret Suiter & Asoociates is that there is more than adequate sight distance on Lincoln to allow for a safe backout onto Lincoln Street. Please submit a sight distance exhibit showing the driver's location and its line of sight. Plot the sight distance line on the grading plan. 16. Provide structural detail and cross-section of the proposed pavers. Provide manufaturer's specifications showing structural capacity of the proposed pavers. Obtain Fire Department approval of the pavers for fire access. 17. Please submit a letter with wet signature from Waste Management. The letter submitted by the applicant dated December 14, 2012 is not signed by Waste Management representative. Per the unsigned letter, Waste management has two concerns: the right angle turn and the stability of the proposed pavers. The applicant must address these issues raised by Waste management. 18. Comply with all other comments shown on red-lined plans. CT 12-03/CDP 12-17/PUD,-06-201 Walnut Townhomes January 14, 2013 Page 4 19.

The application documents submitted for this project are in-complete. Prior to next submittal, it is suggested the following items are adequately addressed: Incomplete Items: 1. Please provide a preliminary soils report that identifies site soil, geologic conditions and provides preliminary grading recommendations. The soils report must verify the type of soil to validate the type A soil mentioned in the SWMP report and used in the water quality BMP sizing calculations. It must also include infiltration rate testing to determine infiltration rate of the underlying soil at the proposed bioretention area. 2. The preliminary hydrology study dated August 1, 2012 by Pasco Laret Suiter and Associates is incomplete. No 100-year hydrology and hydraulic calculations were provided. The report provides only the DMA map and bioretention sizing calculations which were already part of the SWMP report and should not be included in the hydrology report. Provide hydrology and hydraulic calculations to show that downstream drainage facilities have capacity for any increases in 100 year storm event runoff, or that the post development storm water discharges do not exceed the pre development condition. Identify the location, alignment, and discharge point of any proposed drainage system. Issues of concern: Site Plan: 1. The site plan shows a proposed sliding gate at the driveway entrance, however, there is no turn around provided for vehicles that are denied entry or if the gate does not open. Please revise the driveway entrance design to meet engineering standard chapter 4.1.8, which requires that all driveways having an ADT greater than 40 shall have an approved turn around to preclude vehicles from backing onto a public street. Or submit a waiver request Community & Economic Development 1635 Faraday Ave. I Carlsbad, CA 92008 I 760-602-2710 I 760-602-8560 fax I www.carlsbadca.gov CT 12-03/CDP 12-17 /PUD.-06-201 Walnut Town homes September 4, 2012 Page 2 letter with justifications to the City Engineer in accordance with Engineering Standard, Chapter 3, section 18. 2. Chapter 5, section 503.2.1.3 of the 2010 California Fire Code requires single entry developments serving 24 dwelling units or less to provide 36 feet wide residential street/driveway. Obtain approval from the Fire Marshall for the proposed 24 feet wide fire lane. 3. On the site plan, identify the pipe size, material and the approved drawing numbers of the existing water and sewer mains along Garfield Street, Walnut Street and Lincoln Street. 4. Identify the location, alignment, and discharge point of any proposed drainage system. If the proposed bioretention basins are intended to carry the 100 year storm event run-off, show outlet structures, discharge points, and/or emergency spillways. 5. The site plan shows a p·roposed retaining wall at the south east corner of the property. Please revise design to eliminate or replace with a 2:1 slope that portion of the proposed retaining wall located within the public right-of-way. 6. This project will be conditioned to provide, to the satisfaction of the city engineer, a recorded document that ensures maintenance of shared private improvements such as private driveway, stormwater treatment facilities and storm drains within the proposed subdivision. 7. Meet with the Fire Department to identify the necessary fire protection measures required for this project {access, fire hydrants, sprinkler system, etc.). 8. Contact Coast Waste Management to determine if they can adequately serve the project given the location of the trash receptacle enclosure near the end of the driveway aisle. Submit a letter from Coast Waste Management acknowledging that they can serve the project under the proposed design. 9. Comply with all other comments shown on red-lined plans. Hydrology Report: 10. If the bioretention is designed to address the 100 year pre/post development flows, provide a preliminary detention basin routing calculations. 11. Comply with all other comments shown on the red-lined preliminary hydrology report. SWMP Report: CT 12-03/CDP 12-17 /PUD.-06-201 Walnut Town homes September 4, 2012 Page 3 12. The DMA exhibit shows 12 proposed IMPs/bioretention basins. However, there are only three IMP sizing calculations giving three IMP areas. Revise SWMP to show how you appropriately distribute these three IMP areas into the 12 IMP areas. Each of the proposed bioretention must be sized individually based on the tributary drainage management area. Please clarify which DMA drains to each proposed IMP/bioretention basins and size each IMP /bioretention basins accordingly. 13. The calculations show that the existing impervious area was subtracted from the proposed impervious area in sizing the bioretention basin. This procedure is not acceptable. Note that the IMP sizing factors in hydromodification management plan are used for integrated approach design to comply with both the treatment BMP and hydromodification sizing criteria. Per the SUSMP, all existing impervious areas that are proposed to be removed and replaced are subject to treatment BMP requirement and must be included in the calculations. For hydromodification, the project will receive credit for the existing impervious area using factors integrated in the BMP calculator. This is accomplished when you input the existing condition as impervious area in the San Diego County BMP calculator. 14. The treatment BMP and hydromodification calculations provided in the SWMP report do not satisfy hydromodification sizing criteria. For an integrated approach, use the San Diego BMP sizing calculator by Brown and Caldwell will satisfy all requirements for TCBMP, HMP and LID facilities and is available online. Go to http:/ /www.projectcleanwater.org and click on the BMP sizing calculator. Include BMP calculator result printout in the SWMP report. 15.

The Geotechnical Update letter dated November 30, 2012 by Hetherington Engineering, Inc. did not verify the type of soil to validate the type A soil used in bioretention BMP sizing calculations provided in the SWMP report and did not provide soils infiltration rate (see previous comments under item 1, incomplete items). Please obtain the requested information from the soils engineer. The soils engineer must also provide design recommendations for the proposed bioretention basins shown on the site plan. 2. Item llb, Site Drainage, on page 8 of the geotechnical update letter, states that the drainage should not be allowed to pond behind walls or adjacent to structures. Based on the site plan all proposed bioretention basins appear to be adjacent to structures. Please obtain clarifications from the soil engineer if the proposed bioretention locations are acceptable. Per the SWMP report, proposed bioretention basins are designed as infiltration basins where storm run-off is allowed to pond and infiltrate into the type A native soil. At locations where infiltration of run-off is not allowed by the soils engineer, the soils engineer may require impermeable liners for bioretention. In this case, the IMP sizing calculations must be revised to assume flow-through planter design in the BMP sizing calculator. This can significantly impact your current design. Flow through planters requires storage volume, V2, and an orifice for flow control. An underground private storm drain may be needed to capture the flow from V2. There are no existing public storm drain system along the adjacent streets, so any proposed private storm drain system may need to be extended to the nearest public storm drain system along Walnut Avenue. 3. On sheet 1 of the slope analysis sheet, clearly show the existing lot lines, APN numbers, areas, and provide dimensions and bearings of the project boundary. Identify street right-of-ways for Walnut Street, Lincoln Street and Garfield Street. 4. On sheet 1 of the site plan, provide a detail of the proposed bioretention overflow and outlet structures. 5. On sheet 1 and sheet 2 of the site plan, label all proposed IMPs/BMPs. Clarify which bioretention basins are combined as one IMP/BMP per the SWMP calculations. 6. On sheet 1, it is not clear how the roof run-off from units 8 and 9 are routed to IMP3. Please show locations of roof drains and drainage arrows. 7. As previously commented and discussed at a meeting with the engineer, the bioretentions combined as one IMP/BMP must have the same bottom elevations in order to function as one IMP. This is to ensure run-off is proportionately distributed to all bioretention basins included in one IMP. However, the revised site plan shows individual bioretention basins have different bottom elevations. As a result, some bioretention basins may not be adequate to handle the flow while some may be oversized, depending on their tributary drainage area. CT 12-03/PUD 12-06/CDP .7-201 WALNUT TOWN HOMES January 15, 2013 Pa e 4 For instance, per the SWMP report and the site plan, the IMP1 consists of three bioretention basins: A18, A25 and A32. Based on the site plan, the drainage area that directly drains into A18 is three times larger than the areas draining into A32. In addition, A18 has a much smaller area (only 1/Gth of A32 area). Obviously, A18 is very inadequate to handle its large tributary drainage area. Combining A18, A25, and A32 will solve the deficiency problem, however, A18, A25 and A32 must have the same bottom elevations and ponding depths in order to evenly distribute the water quality run-off from the entire Basin A. The 100-year storm discharge from one bioretention basin must not be routed to another bioretention basin (i.e. 100 year event discharge from A18 should not flow into basin A25). The proposed IMP system must consist of two pipe systems: 1) A pipe system that connects the bottom of the bioretention basins to distribute the water quality run-off, 2) A by-pass pipe system to carry the 100 year storm event run-off. Show the ultimate discharge point on the site plan. See comments on the red-lined site plans sheet 2 and 3. 8. SWMP indicates that IMP3/BMP3 includes six bioretention basins: C16, C23, C28, C33, C38 and C42. The cross section F on sheet 2 shows significant difference in elevation (about 4 feet) between highest (C16) and lowest (C38) bioretention basins. In this case, it may be necessary to divide IMP3 into 3 separate IMPs and divide DMAs into 3 proportional tributary areas in order to create IMPs containing bioretention basins with the same bottom elevations (See red-lined comments on sheet 2). 9. The hydrology report indicates that the post-development storm water discharge (Q) will exceed the pre development condition. Please provide on-site mitigation for this increase in 100 year storm event runoff or provide hydrology and hydraulic calculations to show that downstream drainage facilities have the capacity for this increase in 100 year storm event runoff. 10. The kirpich formula was used in the initial time of concentration calculations for the 100 year event, post development Q. However, Kirpich formula is applicable only for natural watersheds. Please revise calculations using appropriate formula. Please see also the red-lined comments in the hydrology report regarding time of concentration Tc calculations. 11. The hydrology map included in the hydrology report is very small and hard to read. Please include an enlarged and legible hydrology map showing all drainage sub-basins, drainage arrows/path, length of travel and areas. Provide overall pre-development Q and post-development Q comparison for this project. 12. On sheet 3 of the site plan, show/delineate the boundary of drainage management areas (DMAs) that drain into each bioretention basin. Also delineate the overall boundary of each IMP/BMP (see comments on the red-lined site plans). 13. On sheet 2, revise outlet structures top of grate elevations to provide adequate ponding with a minimum of 10". Ensure that required ponding volumes from the BMP sizing calculations are met. 14. The bioretention detail shown on sheet 3 of the site plan should include a detail of an outlet structure. Please revise. 15. One of the justifications provided in the waiver request letter for engineering standard 4.l.B dated October 8, 2012 by Pasco Laret Suiter & Associates is that there is more than adequate sight CT 12-03/PUD 12-06/CDP 1--201 WALNUT TOWNHOMES January 15, 2013 Pa e 5 distance on lincoln to allow for a safe backout onto lincoln Street. Please submit a sight distance exhibit showing the driver's location and its line of sight. Plot the sight distance line on the grading plan. 16. Provide structural detail and cross-section of the proposed pavers. Provide manufacturer's specifications showing structural capacity of the proposed pavers. Obtain Fire Department approval of the pavers for fire access. 17. Please submit a letter with wet signature from Waste Management. The letter submitted by the applicant dated December 14, 2012 is not signed by Waste Management representative. Per the unsigned letter, Waste management has two concerns: the right angle turn and the stability of the proposed pavers. The applicant must address these issues raised by Waste management. 18.

Provide hydrology and hydraulic calculations to show that downstream drainage facilities have capacity for any increases in 100 year storm event runoff, or that the post development storm water discharges do not exceed the pre development condition. Identify the location, alignment, and discharge point of any proposed drainage system. ISSUES OF CONCERN Planning: 1. At the upper right hand corner of the plans, please provide the City assigned application numbers (CT 12-03/PUD 12-06/CDP 12-17). 2. As a reminder, the project site meets the definition of a "through lot" and therefore has front yards on both Garfield Street and Lincoln Street and no rear yard. As shown on the site plan and landscape plan (key note #6 and #9 respectively), the proposed five foot vinyl privacy fence is located within the front yard setback area and exceeds the allowed 42 inch maximum height limit. Please lower the privacy fence height in order to comply with the maximum height limit or relocate it outside the 10 foot front yard setback area along Lincoln Street. 3. The 2,135 square feet of proposed recreation area shown on Sheet AO.l is inconsistent with the recreation area total shown on Sheet T0.1. Please correct. Engineering: Site Plan: 1. The site plan shows a proposed sliding gate at the driveway entrance, however, there is no turn around provided for vehicles that are denied entry or if the gate does not open. Please revise e CT 12~03/PUD 12-06/CDP 12-17-201 WALNUT TOWNHOMES September 6, 2012 Page 4 the driveway entrance design to meet engineering standard chapter 4.l.B, which requires that all driveways having an ADT greater than 40 shall have an approved turn around to preclude vehicles from backing onto a public street. Or submit a waiver request letter with justifications to the City Engineer in accordance with Engineering Standard, Chapter 3, section 18. 2. Chapter 5, section 503.2.1.3 of the 2010 California Fire Code requires single entry developments serving 24 dwelling units or less to provide 36 feet wide residential street/driveway. Obtain approval from the Fire Marshall for the proposed 24 feet wide fire lane. 3. On the site plan, identify the pipe size, material and the approved drawing numbers of the existing water and sewer mains along Garfield Street, Walnut Street and Lincoln Street. 4. Identify the location, alignment, and discharge point of any proposed drainage system. If the proposed bioretention basins are intended to carry the 100 year storm event run-off, show outlet structures, discharge points, and/or emergency spillways. 5. The site plan shows a proposed retaining wall at the south east corner of the property. Please revise design to eliminate or replace with a 2:1 slope that portion of the proposed retaining wall located within the public right-of-way. 6. This project will be conditioned to provide, to the satisfaction of the city engineer, a recorded document that ensures maintenance of shared private improvements such as private driveway, stormwater treatment facilities and storm drains within the proposed subdivision. 7. Meet with the Fire Department to identify the necessary fire protection measures required for this project (access, fire hydrants, sprinkler system, etc.). 8. Contact Coast Waste Management to determine if they can adequately serve the project given the location of the trash receptacle enclosure near the end of the driveway aisle. Submit a letter from Coast Waste Management acknowledging that they can serve the project under the proposed design. 9. Comply with all other comments shown on red-~ned plans. Hydrology Report: 10. If the bioretention is designed to address the 100 year pre/post development flows, provide a preliminary detention basin routing calculations. 11. Comply with all other comments shown on the red-lined preliminary hydrology report. SWMP Report: 12. The DMA exhibit shows 12 proposed IMPs/bioretention basins. However, there are only three IMP sizing calculations giving three IMP areas. Revise SWMP to show how you appropriately distribute these three IMP areas into the 12 IMP areas. Each of the proposed bioretention must be sized individually based on the tributary drainage management area. Please clarify which DMA drains to each proposed IMP/bioretention basins and size each IMP/bioretention basins accordingly. ' e e CT 12-03/PUD 12-06/CDP 12-17-201 WALNUT TOWNHOMES September 6, 2012 Page 5 13. The calculations show that the existing impervious area was subtracted from the proposed impervious area in sizing the bioretention basin. This procedure is not acceptable. Note that the IMP sizing factors in hydromodification management plan are used for integrated approach design to comply with both the treatment BMP and hydromodification sizing criteria. Per the SUSMP, all existing impervious areas that are proposed to be removed and replaced are subject to treatment BMP requirement and must be included in the calculations. For hydromodification, the project will receive credit for the existing impervious area using factors integrated in the BMP calculator. This is accomplished when you input the existing condition as impervious area in the San Diego County BMP calculator. 14. The treatment BMP and hydromodification calculations provided in the SWMP report do not satisfy hydromodification sizing criteria. For an integrated approach, use the San Diego BMP sizing calculator by Brown and Caldwell will satisfy all requirements for TCBMP, HMP and LID facilities and is available online. Go to http://www.projectcleanwater.org and click on the BMP sizing calculator. Include BMP calculator result printout in th,e SWMP report. 15. The proposed bioretention facility detail shown on the plan is designed without an underdrain system and is considered an infiltration BMP. Provide drawdown time calculations using the infiltration rate provided by the soils engineer. Show that the bioretention/infiltration basin drains within 96 hours. The drawdown time calculations are not necessary if using BMP calculator. 16. Comply with all other comments shown on the red-lined preliminary SWMP report. Resubmittal: 17. Please submit the following documents in the next review submittal: a) 1 copy of the revised preliminary site plan; b) One copy each of the revised SWMP and hydrology report; c) 1 copy of the preliminary soils report; d) 1st review redlined plans and all red-lined reports. fire: Please contact the Fire Department directly for project issues/comments. Landscaping: Please advise the applicant to make the following revisions to the plans so that they will meet the requirements of the City of Carlsbad's Landscape Manual. Numbers below are referenced on the red line plans where appropriate for ease in locating the area of the comment concern. 1. Please clearly show and label all property lines, right-of-ways and any easements on all plans. 2. Please relocate trees to avoid sewer and water lateral lines. Check all areas. e CT 12-03/PUD 12-06/CDP 12-17-201 WALNUT TOWNHOMES September 6, 2012 Page 6 3. The plan shall demonstrate that plants, when installed and at maturity, will be positioned to avoid obstructing motorists' views of pedestrian crossings, driveways, roadways and other vehicular travel ways. a. On collector streets and larger, landscape elements over 30 inches in height (including planting measured at maturity) as measured from adjacent street grade are not permitted at street corners within a triangular zone drawn from two points, 25 feet outward from the beginning of curves. b. At medium to high use driveways, the 30 inch height limitation applies at driveways 25 feet from the edge of the apron outward along the curb, then 45 degrees in toward the property. c. Ensure that landscape elements at interior private driveway intersections do not obstruct sight lines, so that circulation and pedestrian safety can be maintained. d. Landscape features (shrubs, trees, fencing, etc.) shall be selected to ensure that no visual impairmen~s or obstructions are located within the CaiTrans sight distance lines. Proposed plans locate buildings, fences, retaining walls and plant material that exceed the height limits in the sight lines. Please coordinate revisions to plans to resolve. 4. Evergreen plants shall be used to screen unsightly elements and shall be spaced to provide 100% screening within two (2) years of installation. Plans shall feature ground cover, shrubs, and trees to screen elements of unsightliness and screen/soften new improvements. Please provide tall evergreen shrubs and/or wall vines to soften and enhance these walls. 5. Indicate positive surface drainage (2% grade in planting areas) away from structures and terminating in an approved drainage system. 6. Please clarify that these areas are to be maintained by the HOA. 7. Please provide appropriate grass plantings in the bio-swales for filtering. 8. Please note that the bio-swale structures are to be in full working order prior to obtaining occupancy, therefore all plantings within these areas will need to be fully knitted in and covering. Insure plant sizes and spacing are such that this will be accomplished prior to requesting occupancy. 9. Please address landscaping of this area. 10. Please address landscaping of all planters. Check all areas. 11. Landscaping shall be used to accentuate and enhance architecture. Plans shall feature ground cover, shrubs, and trees to screen elements of unsightliness and screen/soften new improvements. Besides the proposed palms there are no other tall plantings that will soften the upper stories of the buildings along Lincoln and Walnut. There are no tall plantings along the south side of the project. Landscaping to include taller plantings (trees, more palms) is needed to both soften and enhance these building elevations. Please address. 12. 50% of the shrubs (except on slopes 3:1 or steeper) shall be a minimum 5 gallon size. Please insure this requirement is met. e CT 12-03/PUD 12-06/CDP 12-'17-201 WALNUT TOWNHOMES September 6, 2012 Pa e 7 13. All utilities are to be screened.
