32. Describe the project site as it exists before the project, including
information on topography, soil stability, plants and animals, and any
cultural, historical or scenic aspects. Describe any existing structures on
the site, and the use of the structures. Attach photographs of the site.
Snapshots or Polaroid photos will be accepted.
The La Costa Residential project is part of the La Costa Town Square approvals
in 2009. The property was analyzed as part of Environmental Impact Report
(EIR) 01-02. The EIR, Candidate Findings of Fact, Statement of Overriding
Considerations, and the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program were
adopted per Planning Commission Resolution No. 6577.
The site is graded and vacant of any structures. The property currently has and
will continue to gain access off of Paseo Lupino. The graded pad is relatively flat.
The site sits higher than neighborhoods to the west and lower than
neighborhoods to the east. Maximum slopes on site are 2:1. A geotechnical
investigation was performed and is included with this submittal for you reference.
There is no historical significance associated with this property and the Initial
Study found Cultural Resources to not be significant. Rancho Santa Fe Road is
identified as a "community scenic corridor". The property sits higher than Rancho
Santa Fe Road and will not disrupt the scenic corridor of the roadway. All homes
will be either one or two story levels, which is consistent with the adjacent
homes.
33. Describe the surrounding properties, including information on plants and
animals and any cultural, historical or scenic aspects. Indicate the type of
land use (residential, commercial, etc.), intensity of land use (one-family,
apartment houses, shops, department stores, etc.), and scale of
development (height, frontage, set-back, rear yard, etc.). Attach
photographs of the vicinity. Snapshots or polaroid photos will be accepted.
The surrounding properties include two existing single family developments
located directly east and directly north of the property. The single family site to
the north sits below the subject site and is separated by Old Rancho Santa Fe
Road. As a part of the La Costa Master Plan, a new commercial and office
shopping center will be located south of the site and Rancho Santa Fe Road. The
adjacent areas do not contain any sensitive plants or animals. There is no
significant cultural or historical value in the neighboring area. The proposed land
use is consistent with the surrounding uses.
. . • •
The residential development is proposed as one and two stories and of similar
character as the surrounding residential developments outside the project site.
There is no state or local designated scenic vistas that would be impacted by the
proposed project as the proposed project will implement visually appealing
landscaping and building designs consistent with other appropriate City
guidelines, no impact associated with scenic corridors would occur. Please find
attached site photos for your reference.

Jason,
The proposed conditions are okay with me. I would recommend adding to the conditions that they be placed on the
construction plans as notes so that the field inspectors are aware of the requirements. Thanks.

Don/Chris,
In the email below, Liz Ketabian has proposed a condition to the project that addresses interruption and possible
encroachments onto the Citywide trail (i.e., Old Rancho Santa Fe Road) running adjacent to the project. This condition
has not yet been integrated into the CT resolution that Chris has already looked at and Don you should have at
present. Below are two bolded conditions I am planning to add to the resolution. If you see any issues with these,
please let me know at your earliest convenience so I can adopt them. I have conferred with Liz regarding the
modifications. She Is in agreement with the proposed changes.
Condition 1:
Developer shall provide a minimum 48 hour notification to the City of Carlsbad Parks Division regarding any use of the
Old Rancho Santa Fe Road public trail for construction activities Including, but not limited to, access to overhead and
underground utilities within the public trail right-of-way. Notification on such matters shall be made by contacting · i
Michael Bliss, Parks SUpervisor at (760}434-2985, or by contacting the Parks Maintenance Division Office at (760) 434-
2824, 1166 Carlsbad Village Drive, Carlsbad, CA 92008.
Condition 2:
Prior to any construction activities commencing within any portion of the Old Rancho Santa Fe Road public trail right-
of-way, developer shall close the trail and provide for trail closure signage at the Old Ranch Santa Fe Road trailheads
located at Cadencla Street (northerly end of trailhead} and at La Costa Avenue (southerly end of trailhead).

Hi Jason,
I am returning the plans in interoffice mail today, and have no further comments on the plans. However, from looking at
the plans it is evident that there will be some encroachment into the public trail right of way for some of the
construction operations mainly for some utility modifications. Therefore, we would like to put the responsibility for any
trail closures and not open up the City for any potential liability that could arise from any construction activities that spill
over into the public trail right of way. I've crafted this particular condition arid request that this be included as a
condition for this project.
Applicant and/or Contractor for the development of La Costa Residential, shall provide a 48 hour notification to the City
of Carlsbad Parks Division regarding any use of the Old Rancho Santa Fe Rd. trail for any construction activities including,
but not limited to, the access to overhead and underground utilities within the public trail right of way. Notification on
such matters shall be by contacting Michael Bliss, Parks Supervisor at 760-434-2985 or the Parks Maintenance Division
Office at 760-434-2824, 1166 Carlsbad Village Dr., Carlsbad, CA 92008. In addition, prior to any construction activities
commencing within the public trail right of way the applicant and /or contractor for the La Costa Residential
development shall close the trail and provide and be responsible for trail closure signage at the Old Ranch Santa Fe Rd.
trailheads at the north end at Cadencia St. and at the La Costa Ave. trailhead at the south end of the trail prior to any
construction activities commencing.
Thanks.

Please note that we just routed the latest version of plans to each of you for conditions. I believe on the last review
Building, Fire, and Parks had no comments or conditions for the project, it was only Planning, Engineering, and PELA that
had minor comments. I have scheduled this project for the PC Hearing of 5/1/2013. No major changes have occurred
since the last submittal; just some clean-up consistency items. Please note that despite what the routing slip says
regarding a due date (4/1) for conditions, in order to make the 5/1 PC hearing we really need your conditions no later
than 3/21. I would greatly appreciate it if you all could please take a look at these plans as soon as possible and let me
know if you will have conditions. If you see an issue that can be conditioned, then please do so instead. Thank you.

positioned to avoid obstructing motorists' views of pedestrian crossings,
driveways, roadways and other vehicular travel ways.
b. On collector streets and larger, landscape elements over 30 inches in height

3'd Review: The applicant has provided street trees (Jacaranda} at 30' on center and
indicated that they are to be 24" box size. Although this does meet the requirement, in
order to better maintain street scene continuity it is preferred that the spacing of the
Jacaranda trees be 40' on center to better match spacing of existing Jacaranda trees to
the east and upsize some of the Pinus torreyana theme trees to account for the
additional required quantity of 24" box size trees. There is approximately 1,130 lineal
feet of street frontage. Dividing by 30 equals a total of 38-24" box trees required.
Jacaranda spaced at 40' on center equals about 28 trees leaving a total of 10
additional 24" box size trees required. Please revise spacing of the Jacaranda to 40'
on center (approximately 28 trees) and revise 10 of the Pinus torreyana to 2 4" box size
to provide a total of 38 ~ 24 " box size trees.

RE: LA COSTA TOWN SQUARE
PLAN CHECK NO. 2
CT 12-05/PUD12-07N 12-02
CONCEPTUAL LANDSCAPE PLANS
I have reviewed the above plans for La Costa Town Square residential development.
Please provide the below comments and attached red line mark-up of the plans to the
applicant so that they may address these comments with the next plan review submittal
for the project.
Plan Review Comments:
1. Tentative Map-Connectivity of the housing development private trail connection
to the existing Old Rancho Santa Fe Rd. trail could benefit from including a
security gate and additional fencing. It is recommended that the same type of 6'
combo fencing/wall ( sheet 45 of Landscape Plans) with plexi glass as shown on
the Conceptual Landscape Plans, be extended to secure the community garden
area and a security gate added to provide additional security at the trail
connection that goes to the residential units. This will provide additional privacy
and security separate from the public access trail that is provided further north.
(public trail that connects Paseo Lupino trail to Old RSF Rd. trail.
See also Sheets 1 & 5 red line comments and mark-up pertaining to this
comment.
2. Landscape Plans-It is recommended that additional pedestrian access be
provided to Rancho Santa Fe Rd. from the southern end of the planned
development to allow for an additional pedestrian access from the planned
development to the La Costa Town Center shops and the existing businesses
available at the corner of La Costa Ave. and Rancho Santa Fe Rd.
This additional path within the community that would connect to the sidewalk
along Rancho Santa Fe Rd. would also provide for a few "loop" walking routes
around the development as well affording the opportunity to utilize the old RSF
Rd. trails, the Paseo Lupino trail and existing sidewalk connections along Rancho
Santa Fe Rd. This recommendation is highly desireable and in line with the
Livable Streets initiative and for providing a more walk friendly residential
neighborhood and community.

Re: CT 12-05/ EIA 12-04/ PUD 12-07 / V 12-02 -La Costa Residential
Engineering Department staff has completed the first review of the above application submittal
documents for completeness. The application documents submitted for this project are
complete. Prior to next submittal, it is suggested the following items are adequately addressed:
Issues of concern:
1. A combination of numbers and letters in lot numbering is not acceptable. Please revise
lot numbering so lots, including residential, open space and private street lots, are
numbered consecutively starting from one (1) throughout the subdivision.
2. Please add remedial (over excavation) grading quantity as recommended by the soils
engineer (page 2 of soil's report dated November 16, 2012}.
3. The recent soils report update did not include design recommendations for the
proposed bioretention basins. Please provide a soils update letter addressing the
suitability of the proposed bioretention basins at the proposed locations as shown on
the site plan. The update letter should include bioretention design recommendations,
including set-back requirement from top of slopes.
4. Change the project title shown on the site plan and reports from "La Costa Town
Square" to "La Costa Residential".
5. It is indicated on page 10 of the preliminary SWMP report that the orifice sizing
calculations will be provided during final engineering. However, the bioretention detail
shown on the site plan should include a detail of the outlet structure similar to the detail
shown on page 93 of the City SUSMP (see attached detail), showing the location of the
orifice and overflow catch basin to capture larger storm events.
6. Please verify sewer easement and water easement requirements from leucadia
Wastewater District and Olivenhain Municipal Water District and show the required
utility easement widths on the site plan.

Memorandum
October 17, 2012
To: Jason Goff, Planner
From: Tecla Levy, Associate Engineer
Re: CT 12-05 I EIA 12-04 I PUD 12-07 IV 12-02-La Costa Residential
Engineering Department staff has completed the first review of the above application submittal
documents for completeness. The application documents submitted for this project are
incomplete. Prior to next submittal, it is suggested the following items are adequately
addressed:
Issues of concern:
1. The bioretention areas shown on the preliminary site plan appear to be less than the
required areas calculated using the sizing factors given in Table 7-1 of the HMP manual.
As previously commented (see item 4 of the City comment letter for PRE 12-13 dated
July 24, 2012), the limit of the bioretention surface area is determined by the extent
(area) of the engineered soil (planting mix) layer where pending and infiltration occurs,
and is governed by the outlet spillway elevation. Please provide details and cross-
sections for each of the proposed bioretention basins. On the preliminary grading plan,
please delineate the surface area limit of the bioretention basins as defined above,
show the bottom (flat area) and side slopes and ensure that the surface areas provided
are greater than or equal to the required sizes per calculations shown in the SWMP
report.
2. The bioretention labeled as BMP2 in the DMA map provided in the SWMP appears to be
a linear swale. Please provide longitudinal and transverse cross-section details. Check
dams should be provided to allow pending and infiltration. Provide treatment layer and
storage volume. (See page 86 of City SUSMP for check dam design criteria).
3. The proposed bioretention basins located at the westerly corner of the site labeled as
BMP1 appears to extend to the edge of the slopes. Please consult the soil engineer for a
minimum edge distance required for slopes' stability. On page 3 of the of the update
geotechnical investigation prepared by Southern California Soil and Testing, Inc., it is
indicated this preliminary site plan was not available during the preparation of the
update geotechnical investigation. Please have the soils engineer review the preliminary
site plan and obtain soils engineer approval for the suitability of the all proposed
bioretention BMPs. Obtain design recommendations such as the minimum required

distance to the edge of the slopes, impermeable lining requirements (if any), etc ..
Submit an update letter from soils engineer with the next submittal.
4. If the soils engineer requires impermeable lining for bioretention basins, then
bioretention basins must be sized using sizing factors for flow-through planters. A lined
bioretention basin functions like a flow through planter since it does not allow
infiltration into the native soil. The sizing factors for a flow through planter are much
larger than that of the bioretention. Larger bioretention basins, if needed, will
significantly impact the current design/layout. I suggest you explore other BMPs options
such as bioretention plus vault, etc.
5. The preliminary grading plan shows that the outlet pipes from BMP3 and BMP4 are
connected into a stormdrain that discharges into BMPl. It appears that the already
treated run-off from BMP3 and BMP4 co-mingle with the untreated run-off in BMP1.
BMPl is not designed to treat additional flows from BMP3 and BMP4. Please revise to
route the already treated run-off from BMPs 3 and 4 directly to the off-site drainage
system. Per hydrology report, the same storm drain system routes the 100-year storm
to be detained in BMPl. This may overwhelm BMPl.
Staff suggests that BMPs 1, 3 and 4 be designed to each handle both the water quality
run-off and 100-year storm run-off from each of their tributary DMAs. The outlet pipe
from each BMPs shall be connected directly to off-site stormdrain system. Please
provide preliminary cross-section detail for the proposed bioretention BMP shown on
the site plan. Include a detail of the outlet structure and show the locations of the
required orifices (for hydromodification and 100-year storm flows).
6. The SWMP report indicates that DMA1 drains into two separate bioretention basins
located at the westerly corner of the site, both labeled as BMPl. Show how these two
basins are connected to act as one basin. I suggest that DMA1 be divided two separate
DMAs, one DMA for each bioretention basins.
7. The proposed pervious pavers at the driveway entrance are labeled as BMPS to treat
DMA5. Pervious pavers are not considered a treatment/hydromodification BMP since
they have no numerically sized treatment or storage layer per SUSMP sizing criteria. A
small portion of the driveway entrance that drains into Paseo Lupino, if paved with
pervious pavement that meets certain criteria provided in the city SUSMP (see page 82
of City SUSMP) are considered self-treating. Self-treating areas do not require
additional treatment or flow control BMP if they drain directly off-site. However, self-
treating pervious pavers cannot treat additional area. Revise the limits of DMA5 on the
DMA map and provide a separate BMP/IMP for DMA 5 or route DMA 5 to BMPl.

Plan Review Recommendations
Carlsbad Police Department's Crime Prevention Unit has provided the following optimal security
recommendations. The purpose of this document is to safeguard property and public welfare by regulating and
reviewing the design, construction, quality of materials, use and occupancy, location, and maintenance of all
buildings and structures. The standards used in this document represent model international standards.
Crime Prevention through Environmental Design
The proper design and effective use of the built environment can lead to a reduction in the fear and incidence of
crime and an improvement in the quality of life. The proper design influences this by positively affecting human
behavior. The design includes the physical environment, the planned behavior of people, the productive use of
space and an effective crime/loss prevention program.
Natural Surveillance
1. Place and design physical features to maximize visibility. This will include building orientation, windows,
entrances, walkways, landscape trees and shrubs, fences and any other physical obstruction.
2. Design the placement of persons and or activities to maximize surveillance possibilities.
3. Design lighting that provides for appropriate nighttime illumination of walkways, entrances and
driveways.
Natural Access Control
L Use walkways, pavement, lighting and landscaping to clearly guide guests to and from selected entrances.
2. Use real or symbolic barriers like fences or landscaping to prevent and or discourage access to or from
dark and or unmonitored areas.
Provisions for territorial reinforcement
L Use pavement treatments, landscaping and fences to define and outline ownership or property.
Area if concern-Model 3 side entrances
L Prevents surveillance of the main entrance from the street
2. Prevents surveillance of the street from the front entrance.
3. Removes eyes and ears from the street. An element of a healthy neighborhood.
Ughting
L Equip building on all sides with light fixtures. White florescent lights allow the best vision.

• •
2. Install lights on the building in the eaves to illuminate the perimeter of the house.
3. Choose light fixtures with dawn to dusk sensors or timers not motion sensors.
1. Plan a landscaping design that enhances surveillance and security.
2. Tree canopies should be no lower than six (6) feet and should not allow access to roofs or balconies.
3. Ensure landscaping plan does not deter from lighting and addressing.
4. Plant only low profile shrubs that can be maintained below two (2) feet.
5. Use security plants where necessary to prevent entering and tampering.
6. Install walls and fences that are see-through and enhance surveillance.
7. Install lockable gates that allow surveillance.
Addressing
1. Locate numerals where they are clearly visible from the front street
2. Contrast the numeral's color to the background on which it is affixed.
3. Numerals shall be no less than four (4) inches in height and illuminated during the hours of darkness.
Entrances
1. Allow front entrance design to provide vision from the front door to the front access street.
Removing the main entrance from the front street takes the resident's eyes and ears off the street
reducing the residents ability to protect themselves and provide surveillance for their neighbors thus
decreasing the overall security of the neighborhood and decreasing the quality of life for the resident.
2. Keep entranceways clear of clutter.
Doors
1. Do not use of glass within 42 inches of a locking device.
2. A single or double door shall be equipped with a double cylinder deadbolt with a bolt projection
exceeding one inch or a hook-shaped or expanding dead bolt that engages the strike sufficiently to prevent
spreading. The deadbolt lock shall have a minimum of five-pin tumblers and a cylinder guard.
3. Install wooden doors of solid core construction with a minimum thickness of one and three-fourths (1-3/4)
inches.
4. Provide a double door inactive leaf with metal flush bolts having a minimum embedment of five-eighths
(5/8) of an inch into the header and footer of the doorframe.
Strike Plates
1. Reinforce all deadbolt strike plates. Choose Strike plates constructed of a minimum 16 U.S. gauge steel,
bronze, or brass and secure it to the jamb by a minimum of two screws, which should penetrate at least
two (2) inches into the solid backing beyond the surface to which the strike is attached. Re-enforcement
of the door area around the lock is also suggested.
Viewer
1. Arrange entrance doors so that the occupant has a view of the area immediately outside the door without
opening the door. Except doors requiring a fire protection rating that prohibits them, such a view may be
provided by a door viewer having a field of view of not less than 190 degrees. Mounting height should not
exceed fifty-four (54) inches from the floor.
.. • •
Windows and sliding glass doors
1. All exterior sliding glass doors and windows should be equipped with locking devices which will keep the
sliding panel of the door or window from being opened from the outside horizontally or vertically.
2. Ensure windows have security features preventing the window from being forced to slide or rise.
Alarm system
1. When considering an alarm system, consider a verified system.
This information is a representation of information gathered on a national level. The purpose is to provide
effective and consistent information. If you would like additional assistance concerning building security or
employee security issues, please contact the Crime Prevention Unit at (760) 931·2105.

SUBJECT: Proposed Building Assembly Conformance for Noise -La Costa Town
Square (Montecina) Residential Development, Carlsbad CA
Ldn Consulting has reviewed the architectural plans provided by Bassenian Lagoni Architects
dated September 25, 2013 and the proposed Milgard Styleline series windows and Milgard
Montecito series sliding glass door ratings pertaining to the proposed La Costa Town Square
(Montecina) Residential Development project in Carlsbad, CA.
The architectural plans identify a standard exterior wall assembly made of wood studs and a
stucco finish having a nominal Sound Transmission Class (STC) rating of 46 as modeled in the
interior noise assessment. The window and glass door manufacture's specifications and STC
ratings provided by Migard were reviewed and compared to the recommendations in the Final
Noise Assessment. The Migard STC ratings are provided as an Attachment to this letter.
These requirements are consistent with the mitigation findings identified in the Project's
acoustical report prepared by Ldn Consulting (Source: La Costa Town Square (Montecina)
Residential Development Final Noise Assessment-City of Carlsbad CA dated 10/7/13).
Should you have any questions regarding the above conclusions, please do not hesitate to

Noise Assessment -City of Carlsbad CA
The firm of Ldn Consulting, Inc. is pleased to submit the following exterior and interior noise
impact analysis for the proposed La Costa Town Square (Montecina) Residential Development
in the City of carlsbad CA. The purpose of the survey is to determine the estimated exterior
noise levels at the primary outdoor use area and proposed building facades.
In addition, the anticipated interior noise levels within the residential structures will be
determined and recommend mitigation measures for compliance with the california Code of
Regulations Title 24 and the City of carlsbad guidelines and requirements for interior noise.
PROJECT LOCATION/DESCRIPTION
The proposed project is located within the City of carlsbad, CA. More specifically, the project
is located north of and adjacent to Rancho Santa Fe Road between La Costa Avenue and
Paseo Lupino. Access to the project site is from Paseo Lupino via Rancho Santa Fe Road. The
project vicinity can be seen in Figure 1 on the following page.
The project site consists of 32 single family units within approximately 9. 9 acres. The project is
proposing three different floor plans. The project site configuration is provided in Figure 2 on

ACOUSTICAL FUNDAMENTALS
•
Noise is defined as unwanted or annoying sound which interferes with or disrupts normal
activities. Exposure to high noise levels has been demonstrated to cause hearing loss. The
individual human response to environmental noise is based on the sensitivity of that individual,
the type of noise that occurs and when the noise occurs.
Sound is measured on a logarithmic scale consisting of sound pressure levels known as a
decibel (dB). The sounds heard by humans typically do not consist of a single frequency but
of a broadband of frequencies having different sound pressure levels. The method for
evaluating all the frequencies of the sound is to apply an A-weighting to reflect how the
human ear responds to the different sound levels at different frequencies. The A-weighted
sound level adequately describes the instantaneous noise whereas the equivalent sound level
depicted as Leq represents a steady sound level containing the same total acoustical energy
as the actual fluctuating sound level over a given time interval.
Mobile noise levels radiant in an almost oblique fashion from the source and drop off at a rate
of 3 dBA for each doubling of distance under hard site conditions and at a rate of 4.5 dBA for
soft site conditions. Hard site conditions consist of concrete, asphalt and hard pack dirt while
soft site conditions exist in areas having slight grade changes, landscaped areas and
vegetation.
The Community Noise Equivalent Level (CNEL) is the 24 hour A-weighted average for sound,
with corrections for evening and nighttime hours. The corrections require an addition of 5
decibels to sound levels in the evening hours between 7 p.m. and 10 p.m. and an addition of
10 decibels to sound levels at nighttime hours between 10 p.m. and 7 a.m. These additions
are made to account for the increased sensitivity during the evening and nighttime hours
when sound appears louder. CNEL values do not represent the actual sound level heard at
any particular time, but rather represents the total sound exposure.
Additionally, Sound Transmission Class (or STC) is an integer rating of how well airborne
sound is attenuated by a building partition. STC is widely used to rate interior partitions,
ceilings/floors, doors, windows and exterior wall configurations (see ASTM International
Classification E413 and E90). The STC number is derived from tested sound attenuation
values found at the 1/3 octave band frequencies. These transmission-loss (TL) values are
then plotted and compared to a standard reference contour. Acoustical engineers fit these

•
values to the appropriate TL Curve to determine a single STC value found at 500 Hertz. STC is
roughly the decibel reduction in noise a partition can provide, abbreviated 'dB'.
If an 85 dB sound on one side of a wall is reduced to 50 dB on the other side, that partition is
said to have an STC of 35. This number does not apply across the range of frequencies
because the STC value is derived from a curve-fit from the tested 1/3 octave band
frequencies. Any partition will have less TL at lower frequencies. For example, a wall with an
STC of 35 may provide over 40 dB of attenuation at 3000 Hz but only 20 dB of attenuation at
125Hz.
INTERIOR NOISE STANDARDS
California's Title 24 Noise Standards
In 1974, the california Commission on Housing and Community Development adopted noise
insulation standards for multi-family residential buildings (Title 24, Part 2, california Code of
Regulations or CCR). CCR Title 24 establishes standards, based on the U.S. Department of
Housing and Urban Development (HUD) requirements, for interior room noise (attributable to
outside noise sources). The regulations also specify that acoustical studies must be prepared
whenever a multi-family residential or motel/hotel building or structure is proposed to be
located near an existing or adopted freeway route, expressway, parkway, major street,
thoroughfare, rail line, rapid transit line, or industrial noise source, and where such noise
sources create an exterior CNEL (or Ldn) of 60 dBA or greater. Such acoustical analysis must
demonstrate that the residence has been designed to limit intruding noise to an interior CNEL
(or Ldn) of at least 45 dBA.
City of Carlsbad Noise Standards
The City of carlsbad's Noise Guidelines Manual (1995) requires that all exterior sensitive
residential areas shall limit noise exposure. For noise sensitive residential land uses, the City
has adopted a policy which has established an exterior noise level goal of 60 dBA CNEL for the
outdoor living areas and an interior noise level of less than 45 dBA CNEL. For residential
properties identified as requiring a noise study, a study shall be prepared by an acoustical
professional. This study shall document the projected maximum exterior noise level and
mitigate the projected exterior noise level to a maximum allowable noise level as identified in
Noise Guideline Manual.

The primary source of noise impacts to the project site will be vehicular noise from Rancho Santa
Fe Road is the principal source of community noise that could impact the site. Based on the
future traffic projections along these roadway, portions of the site will along Rancho Santa Fe
Road experience unmitigated exterior noise levels at the seoond floor building facades of Lots 1-
10 of 72 dBA CNEL (Source: La Costa Town Square Noise Study-Ldn Consulting dated January
17, 2013). The noise levels depend on the location of the buildings, shielding from existing and
proposed structures and the proximity to the aforementioned roadway. Interior building facades
not having a direct line of sight to the roadways were found to have a noise level of 62 dBA CNEL
or less.
The extemal acoustical report determined that with the incorporation of a sound barrier along
Lots 1-10, adjacent to Rancho Santa Fe Road, the first floor areas would be mitigated below 60
dBA CNEL. Therefore, only the seoond floor building facades would be exposed to noise levels
above 60 dBA CNEL and would require interior noise reductions. Since Building Plan 1 is a single
story plan only the seoond floor areas of Plans 2 and 3 are affected by noise levels above 60 dBA
CNEL from Rancho Santa Fe Road. The worst-case exterior noise level of 72 dBA CNEL was
utilized for the seoond floor areas of the architectural floor Plans 2 and 3 of Lots 1-10.
Interior Noise Levels
The methodology used to determine the resultant interior noise levels is based upon the
exterior noise level minus the sound transmission loss as identified in the American Society of
Testing and Materials (ASTM) guidelines: E413 &E90. Standard building construction will
provide a noise reduction of approximately 12-15 dBA with a windows open condition and a
minimum 20 dBA noise reduction with the windows closed. The exterior noise levels at the
proposed structures calculated in terms of dBA are converted to the six octave band sound
pressure levels between: 125 -4000 Hertz.
Acoustical modeling of the proposed project dwelling units was performed in accordance with
the above guidelines and included combining the transmission loss for each of the building
components that will reduce the interior noise levels. Building components typically include
the windows, exterior doors, and exterior walls. The total noise reduction is dependent upon

•
the transmission loss of each building component, their subsequent surface area, quality of
the building/construction materials, a building fac;ade and angle correction.
The interior noise level is also dependent on the acoustical energy absorbed within the room
based upon the Noise Reduction Coefficients (NRC). NRC is a scalar representation of the
amount of sound energy absorbed upon striking a particular surface and the arithmetic value
average of sound absorption coefficients indicating a material's ability to absorb sound. The
absorption coefficients for individual surface areas such as carpet, drywall and furnishings are
used to calculate the interior room effects. The calculated building noise reduction includes
both the room absorption characteristics and the transmission loss from the exterior wall
assembly.
The interior noise reduction calculations were performed using Ldn's interior noise model. The
model converts the exterior sound level to octave band frequencies and accounts for the
transmission loss, correction factors and room absorption. The floor plans used for this analysis
were provided by Bassenian Lagoni Architecture dated August, 2013. The following construction
details were utilized for each of the building assemblies to determine the noise reduction
characteristics:
Exterior walls and roof assemblies must have a Sound Transmission Class (STC) rating of 46 or
better. Exterior walls with this rating consist of 2"x4" studs or larger, spaced 16" o.c. with R-13
insulation minimum and an exterior surface of 7/8" cement plaster (stucco). Interior wall and
ceiling surfaces shall be at least 1/2" thick gypsum or plaster. Roof assemblies should have a
minimum of 1/2" sheathing, R-19 insulation and sealed to prevent noise leaks. Exterior entry
doors should be of solid core construction and glass assemblies should be dual-glazed and
acoustical sealant applied around the exterior edges. The window and door assemblies are
generally the weakest noise reducing component but are the most convenient and cost
effective elements to change if additional attenuation is needed. The src ratings for the glass
assemblies and exterior entry doors were calculated in the interior noise model and provided
in the findings below.
Bathrooms, kitchens, closets and corridors are not required to meet the 45 dBA CNEL standard
and therefore were not modeled. All living areas where lower noise levels are essential for
conversation and sleep should have carpeting installed; this includes bedrooms, living rooms and
dining rooms. These rooms and were modeled to determine the interior noise reductions. If the
modeled interior noise levels were found to be higher than 45 dBA CNEL in the living areas with
the minimum assembly requirements described above additional modeling was performed to

detennine the minimum STC rating for the glass assemblies to further reduce interior noise levels
below the acceptable interior threshold of 45 dBA CNEL
FIN PINGS
The worst-case exterior noise levels were detennined to be as high as 72 dBA CNEL at the
second floor building facades of Lots 1-10. Basic calculations show that a windows open
condition will typically reduce the interior noise levels 12-15 dBA CNEL and not provide adequate
interior noise mitigation. To meet the 45 dBA CNEL interior noise standard, an overall minimum
interior noise level reduction of an overall interior noise level reduction of 27 dBA CNEL is needed
for the proposed project. Therefore a closed window condition is required to reduce interior
noise levels to comply with CCR Title 24 and City of carlsbad requirements. The windows closed
condition requires that mechanical ventilation is installed to move air within the structure and
control temperatures. The mechanical ventilation must meet the jurisdictional requirements for
these dwelling units.
The proposed operable glass assemblies have an STC 28 rating, the fixed windows have an
STC 29 rating and the sliding glass doors have an STC 30 rating. These STC ratings were
entered into the interior noise model to determine compliance with the City's 45 dBA CNEL
interior noise standard.
It was determined, based on the modeling, that the proposed STC ratings for the glass
assemblies having direct line of sight to the roadways (i.e., northern, southern and eastern
facades) of the second floor areas for Plans 2 and 3 of Lots 1-10 will reduce the interior noise
levels below 45 dBA CNEL The modeled results with an anticipated interior noise level of 45
dBA CNEL or less are provided as an Attachmentto this report.
The remainder of the proposed buildings will have noise levels that are more than 5 dBA CNEL
lower and standard STC ratings of 26 for those glass assemblies would reduce the noise levels
to be below the 45 dBA CNEL threshold. The necessary Sound Transmission Class and
transmission losses for the glass assemblies are provided in Table 1.

To avoid the above ground utilities and grading constraints in this area, please abandon
the design to construct a 10ft. wide trail connection with Old Rancho Santa Fe Road
from the existing asphalt trail located on the east of the project. Also, please relocate the
4ft. wide private trail connection with Old Rancho Santa Fe Road to another area
located somewhere before or at the entrance to the community garden passive recreation
area. Please revise all plans to be consistent throughout.
PELA:
Response: The I 0' trail connection has been abandoned and the 4' trail
connection has been updated to avoid the above ground utilities.

b. Existing conditions (i.e., grades, plants, property lines, easements, right-of-ways,
drainage elements, utilities, etc.). Clearly show and label all above items. Insure
that no trees are located within utilitv easements. 3'd Review: Easements are
difficult to see and some are not shown/labeled (i.e., water and sewer). Trees
appear to be shown inside the water and sewer easements. Please clearly show
and label all easements (i.e., darken and label) and insure no trees are located
within the easements.
Response: The easements have been clearly identified on the plans including
labels for reference to insure no trees are located within the easements.
d. All existing and proposed easements (labeled). Trees shall not be planted within a
public utility easement unless otherwise approved by the City. Avoid planting
trees and large shrubs above or near sewer laterals, water mains, meter boxes and
other utilities.

within public utility easements, including sewer laterals, water mains,
meter boxes and other utilities.
e. All vehicular sigh lines, including intersection site distance corridors (see Figures
3-A and 3-B in section 3 of the Landscape Manual) and CalTrans sight distance
standards (i.e. stopping sight distance). Coordinate with the civil engineer to show
and label this information on the conceptual plans. 3'd Review: Sight lines are
difficult to see. Please darken lines to be easily seen.
Response: The sight distance lines have been darkened and coordinated with the
civil plans.

13. 2"d Review: Walls to the east of Paseo Lupino appear to be split face block.
Please revise to split face with cap to match existing walls to the east. 3'd
Review: Please revised to "split face" block.
Response: Per discussions with the planner in an impromptu onsite visit, the
slump block with wash finish is an acceptable wall type to use on this project.
16. Please show and label all vehicular sight lines.
a. 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.
Response: The planting when installed at maturity is positioned to
avoid obstructions to views of pedestrians crossings, driveways,
roadways and other vehicular travel ways.
b. 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 comers within a triangular zone drawn two
points, 25 feet outward from the beginning of curves.
Response: The landscape elements are not more than 30 inches in height along
collector streets, see elevation on sheet 45 of the monument area.
e. Landscape features (i.e. shrubs, trees, fencing, etc.) shall be selected to
ensure that no visual impairments or obstructions are located within the
Ca!Trans sight distance lines.
Response: The landscape plans have been updated to ensure that the shrubs and
trees are not creating a visual impairment or obstruction within the CalTrans
sight distance lines.
f. Ca!Trans sight distance lines have a horizontal and vertical component
(profile). Please coordinate with the civil engineer to determine the location
and height restrictions within the required sight distance area. 3'd Review:
Both Caltrans and the 25' comer sight lines are not legible. Please darken
the lines so they can be seen. Please correct the call outs and leader.
Response: The landscape plans have been updated to comply with the CalTrans
sight distance and the lines have been darkened.

Response: The project has been updated to include the Pinus Torreyana
theme trees to the end of the project.
24. Please clearly show and indicate which areas are proposed for recycled water use
(HOA maintained areas?) and which are proposed for potable water use (private
lots?) each with a separate hatch symbol. Please indicate which water district
services this area (OMWD or CMWD). 2nd Review: Is there a reason no to include
these areas as recycled water use? Drip can be used around the picnic and BBQ
areas. Please review with OMWD for a final determination and provide
documentation of OMWD direction. Revise water use calculations as appropriate.
3'd Review: The applicant has responded: "Reclaimed and domestic water crossing
requirements make the use of reclaimed within the community prohibitive." Please
provide documentation of OMWD direction. It is not clear what makes this
prohibitive. Please explain.
Response: OMWD is deferring the use of reclaimed water to DEH The purpose
of the park is to be a place where parents would sit down on the lawn and watch
their kids play and babies would be free to crawl around on the ground. Taylor
Morrison is opposed to using reclaimed within the park area. Taylor Morrison is
okay with providing additional reclaimed water as marked on the Landscape
redlined plans.
26. Please revise water use calculations noting that recycled water use areas are
considered special landscape areas (SLA). Please use forms a provided in appendix
'E' of the Landscape Manual. 2nd Review: Please correct the MAWA and ETWU
calculations as indicated. Please note that with corrections the ETWQU exceeds the
MAW A. Revise design as appropriate to provide an ETWU that does not exceed
the MA WA. 3'd Review: Although the ETWU is less than the MAW A, the
calculation is still incorrect. Please make the revisions as appropriate.
Response: The water use calculations have been revised and corrected.
27. Return Redlines and provide 2 copies of all plans (concept, water conservation,
and colored/hatched water use plan) for the next submittal.
Response: The Redlines have been included in the plan submittal.

3'" Review: The applicant has provided street trees (Jacaranda) at 30' an center and indicated
that they are to be 24" box size. Although this does meet the requirement, in order to better
maintain street scene continuity it is preferred that the spacing of the Jacaranda trees be 40' an
center to better match spacing of existing Jacaranda trees to the east and upsize some of the
Pinus torreyana theme trees to account for the additional required quantity of 24" box size trees.
There is approximately 1,130 lineal feet of street frontage. Dividing by 30 equals a total of 38-
24" box trees required. Jacaranda spaced at 40' on center equals about 28 trees leaving a total
of 10 additional 24" box size trees required. Please revise spacing of the Jacaranda to 40' on
center (approximately 28 trees) and revise 10 of the Pinus torreyana to 24" box size to provide a
toto/ of 38-24 "box size trees.
2A Completed.
NEW COMMENTS
lB. Pinus torreyana has been revised to Pinus eldarica. Please revise back to Pinus torreyana in
order to match existing Pines to the east on Rancho Santa Fe Road and to meet
requirements of Appendix D of the Landscape Manual.
2B. Please identify the water use for this area and revise water use calculations as appropriate.
3B. Please hatch all appropriate areas of private homeowner maintained areas.

PLANNING DIVISION
On behalf of our client, Taylor Morrison we are pleased to re-submit this package for the La
Costa Residential project. Below is a point by point response to your letter dated January 14,
2013, our responses are in bold.
Planning:
1. Noise Study. Please address the following issues:
a. Figure 1-2, Figure 4-1, Figure 4-2, and Figure 5-1 are illegible as it relates to
identifying the Lot #s. Please revise these exhibits within the document and
resubmit.
Response: The figures have been updated to be easier to determine lot numbers.
b. In addition to Lot 1-9, the document discusses noise impacts to Lots 28 and 29. Is
reference to Lot 29 a typo; and should this instead be Lot 27? Please confirm.
Response: Correct, the noise study has been revised and Lot 29 has been removed
from the mitigation list. The noise barrier needed for Lot 28 also reduces the
noise at Lot 2 7 sufficiently.
c. Figure 5-1 requires a 6 foot barrier extending in the easterly direction
towards the edge of the existing trail separating this project from the
adjacent homes. However, the proposed landscape submittal shows a 6
foot barrier following the lot lines of these proposed lots. Please address
any inconsistencies.

Response: The noise study graphic has been revised to reflect the wall location
consistent with the landscape plans.
d. Please see attached redlines for clarifications of the above. Revise
accordingly.
Response: All red!ine comments have been addressed in the revised report. It
should be noted: Exterior noise mitigation is needed for Lots I-9 & 28. Since
second floor facades noise levels were found to be above 60 dBA CNEL at Lots I-
IO & 27-28, an interior noise assessment is needed for those Lots. Language has
been added to the report to help clarify.
2. Sheet 1 (Title Sheet). Please address the following issues:
a. Please revise Development Summary Items #3 and #4 to include the Open
Space (OS) Land Use designation that exists on this property in addition to
the RM.
Response: See revised plan for updated Items 3 and 4.
b. Please revise the proposed density (3.2 dulac) that is labeled in Development
Summary Item #8 as the project's density is based on the net
developable acreage, and not gross acreage (9.96 acres). It is
important to note that the net developable acreage should exclude the
improved portion of Rancho Santa Fe Road and Paseo Lupino, along with
the 1.9 acres of existing General Plan designated Open Space (OS).
Based on this, the net developable acreage for this project should be
5.77 acres. Please confirm the following acreages (Gross Acreage (9.96
acres)-Improved Rancho Santa Fe Road!Paseo Lupino (2.2 acres)-
Existing GP designated OS (1.9 acre)= Net Developable Acreage (5.77
acres)). If this is correct, then the project should have a density of 5.5 dulac.
This would be within the RM density range, but just below the Growth
Management Control Point.
Response: Total developable area minus Rancho Santa Fe Rd and Paseo Lupino
= 7.98 acres -I.9 acres of OS =5.78 acres. Therefore 32lots/5.78 ac.=5.54 DU
per acre. See revised Item 8.

c. Please revise Development Summary Item #19 as the 4.56 acres of
open space does not match that shown in the Lot Summary Table on Sheet
8.
Response: Lot Summary Table and Item 19 have been updated to 3.93 Acres
d. Please revise any inconsistent lot numbers between the Key Map and
other sheets. For example the Key Map has Open Space Lots A and C,
whereas Sheet 5 has Lots 33 and 35 for the very same lots.
Response: All lot numbering has been updated and only numbers are used. See
revised sheet 5.
3. Sheet 2 (Typical Sections Lot Area). Please address the following issues:
a. Please note, the lot area table is no longer on this sheet. Please rename
the sheet.
Response: Lot Summary Table move to sheet 8. Sheet 2 has been renamed.
b. Please add cross section details for all of the Private Drive Aisles (A, B,
and C). Be sure to label the location of the property lines as each of these
are individual lots.
Response: Added cross sections for Private Drives C and D. Cross sections for
Private Street A and B already provided. Property lines have been identified on
all sections.
c. Please revise the cross section detail for Private Street A to identifY the
location of property lines.
Response: Property line has been identified.
d. Instead of providing a note, please revise the Parallel Parking Space Detail to
include an example of the 20ft. length where a parallel space is located
adjacent to a drive aisle and/or driveway pan. This can easily be
accomplished by converting one of the 24 ft. lengths.
Response: Added a detail specifically for the parallel parking adjacent to a drive
aisle or driveway.

e. Please note that the perpendicular parking spaces proposed in the plans do not
match the Perpendicular Parking DetaiL If a parking overhang is to be
used in order to meet the minimum area requirements for a parking
space, then please revise the exhibit to match. Re-label this exhibit to
also include Private Drive C.
Response:
• Parking detail dimensions have been revised to match the plan.
• A 2-foot overhang has been added to the detail and to sheets 5 and 6. With
the 2-foot overhang, the parking area per space is 9ft x20 ft = 180 SF.
This exceeds the 170 SF minimum requirements.
• The exhibit has been revised to include Private Drive C.
[ Please relocate the Parking Summary table to the architectural site plan
on Sheet 7 or Sheet 8.
Response: The Parking Summary has been relocated to sheet 7.
4. Sheet 3 (Existing Conditions and Easements). The Easement Table that is
provided on this sheet includes two (2) rows of the same easement information
identified and listed under Item No. 17. However, the column entitled
"Deposition" is different for each one of these rows; one indicating that
the easement is "to be vacated," and the other indicating that the same
easement is "to remain." Please revise these inconsistencies to clarify intent.
Response: The portion of Item 17 north of Pas eo Lupino and Corte Brezo intersection
and west of Pas eo Lupino centerline is to be vacated. A note to that effect has been added
to Sheet 3.
5. Sheet 5 (Proposed Conditions). Please address the following issues:
a. Please revise any inconsistent lot numbering/lettering. For example Lots 33 and
35 on this sheet are the same as Lots A and C on the Key Map (Sheet I, Title
Sheet).
Response: All lot numbering has been revised. All lettered lots are now
numbered.

b. Please label lot numbering/lettering on this sheet for the Open Space
recreation lot located in the center of the project and the Open Space lot that is
adjacent to Rancho Santa Fe Road.
Response: Lot has been numbered and is identified as lot 3 7.
c. The perpendicular parking stalls located adjacent to Private Drives A and
C do not meet the minimum area requirements of the Carlsbad
Municipal Code chapter 21.44, nor do they match the typical detail
provided on Sheet 2. They appear to scale at approximately 9' by 17',
which equates to 153 sq. ft. in area, where 170 sq. ft. is required. Look to
the vehicle parking overhang (C.M.C. Section 21.44.050(A)) allowance as a
possible way to resolve this issue. This will likely require slightly
widening the sidewalk in front of the spaces along Private Drive A in
order to accommodate pedestrian accessibility. For the three spaces
located in Private Drive C, be sure to label any proposed overhang.
Revise all plans to be consistent.
Response:
• Parking detail dimensions have been revised to match the detail on sheet
2.
• The parking area per space is 9ft x20 ft (18ft + 2ft overhang) = 180 SF.
This exceeds the 170 SF minimum requirements.
• Sidewalk along Private Dr. B has been widened by 2ft.
• All overhangs have been labeled.
6. Sheet 6 (Proposed Conditions). Please address the following issues:
a. Please revise the location of the proposed public trail connections to avoid
any impacts with the existing utilities that are located within this area.
Please revise all plans to be consistent.
Response: Trail alignments have been revised to eliminate impacts to trails.
b. Please revise the plans to extend the proposed trail next to the
community garden area to also connect with the existing asphalt trail similar
to what is proposed in the landscape plans. Please revise all plans to be
consistent.
Response: Trail has been extended.
7. Sheet 7 (Architectural Site Plan). Please address the following issues:

a. Please increase the scale of this sheet to 1" = 40' scale. There is too much
information on this plan, and at the 1" = 50' scale it is too difficult to read.
Response: Plan scale has been changed to I "=40'
b. Front setbacks for Lots 15-21 need to be measured to the property line behind the
sidewalk, not the curb of the drive-aisle.
Response: Setback dimensions are now to back of sidewalk.
c. Please label all lots on the architectural site plan that are subject to the
slope edge building setback (see C.M.C. 21.95.120(1)) and demonstrate
project compliance with this standard. Our calculations indicate that Lots 2-
15 are subject to this requirement.
Response: Note has been added identifying lots 2-5 as being subject to the slope
edge building setback requirement. Cross sections are provided for worst case
conditions, lots 8-12.
d. Please revise Slope Edge Building Setback, Section Detail D-D to more
accurately reflect the grading conditions of this slope with the 8 ft. combination
retaining/glass noise wall. Be sure to include in the detail the locations of
the noise wall, property line, and projected slope edge as recently
discussed.
Response: Section has been revised and reviewed by Jason Goff on 1123113
e. Please include additional Slope Edge Building Setback section details for Lots 7
and 9. Please note that the residential unit proposed on Lot 9 is subject to slope
edge building setbacks on two (2) sides. At least two section details relating to the
slopes facing Old Rancho Santa Fe Road and the existing Rancho Santa Fe Road
are necessary to determine if the home proposed on Lot 9 is compliant.
Response: Per email from Jason Goff on 1123/13, cross section for lot 7 is not
required. Lot 9 pad has been lowered to increase pad size and two cross sections
have been provided to show compliance.
8. Sheet 8 (Private Rec. Area and Lot Summary). Please address the following
issues:

m1ssmg space.
Response: Total lot area has been calculated.
b. Please add two (2) columns to the Lot Summary Table that identifies the
minimum Side Yard Setback and Rear Yard Setback for each residential
lot. See Planned Development TableD (C.M.C. 21.45.070) for the
individual requirements.
Response: Columns have been added with minimum yard setbacks requirements.
c. For Lots 20, 26, and 28, please revise to include a similar dimension as
provided on all other lots showing the degree of encroachment by the
proposed covered patios for purposes of determining the minimum 15 ft.
dimension requirement for private recreation areas.
Response: Dimensions have been added for encroachment into patios.
9. Landscape Plans. Please address the following issues:
a. The noise study identifies a requirement of Y," thick glass as one of
the wall materials allowed to be used in properly mitigating noise
levels within the project. The proposed "combo wall" details that are
provided for both the 6 ft. and 8 ft. walls call for X" thick glass. Please
revise plans to comply with the noise study.
Response: Details have been updated to l6" thick glass.
b. Please revise the location of the proposed public trail connections to avoid
impacts with the existing utilities located in this area.
Response: Completed.
c. On Sheet 42 (Passive Park Enlargement), the note pointing to the Active
Play Area needs to be revised. The Planned Development Regulations
Table C (C.M.C. 21.45.060) allows for a grassy play area with a slope of
"less than 5%." The plans are labeled "5% max." Please revise this and
any other areas of the plans that could be impacted by this requirement.
Response: Completed.

should be approved as part of the development. However, the signage itself that
will ultimately go on the low "sign" wall would be issued under separate permit.
Please revise notes.
Response: See monument elevation on sheet 44.
10. Meandering Sidewalk (Rancho Santa Fe Road). Please revise the
sidewalk/parkway proposed along Rancho Santa Fe Road to instead
provide for a fully detached sidewalk/parkway. Consultation between
Engineering and Planning Division staff revealed that a physical separation
between the sidewalk and Rancho Santa Fe Road is preferred. In addition, we
have discussed an option to increase the parkway width along this frontage
that we would like to share with you as a possible solution to increase the
parkway without the need for retaining walls (please see the attached exhibit).
Please review and follow up with a meeting to discuss.
Response: Complete.
11. Please see the completed Planned Development -Tables C and D and also
City Council Policy 44 and 66 tables. Please address all of the comments
identified in red text and revise project accordingly.
Response: See responses to Tables and City Council Policies, attached.
Engineering:
1. A combination of numbers and letters in lot numbering is not acceptable.
Please revise lot numbering so lots, including residential, open space and
private street lots, are numbered consecutively starting from one (1) throughout
the subdivision.
Response: Lettered lots have been revised to numbers.
2, Please add remedial (over excavation) grading quantity as recommended by
the soils engineer (page 2 of soil's report dated November 16, 2012).

1. lA. Below is an excerpt from Planned Development Table C regarding
arterial setback landscaping:
a. Half (50%) of the required arterial setback area located closest to the
arterial shall be fully landscaped to enhance the street scene and buffer
homes from traffic on adjacent arterials, and:
* Shall contain a minimum of one 24" box tree for every 30 lineal feet
of street frontage; and
* Shall be commonly owned and maintained
Plans indicate that the street trees are 24" box size and they are
currently spaced at an average 47 lineal feet along Rancho Santa Fe
Road. There are background trees but plans indicate that they are to be 15
gallon size minimum. Please revise plans providing for one 24" box size
tree for every 30 lineal feet of street frontage.
Response: The Jacaranda trees have be re-spaced accordingly.
2. 2A. Wall vines or other plantings are needed along this wall to soften it
from view. Please address.
Parks:
Response: A 2 'planter has been created and additional plant material has been added at
the base of the wall.
1. Connectivity of the housing development private trail connection to the
existing Old Rancho Santa Fe Road trail could benefit from inclusion of a
security gate and additional fencing. It is recommended that the same type of 6
ft. tall combo wall with glass, as shown on Sheet 45, be extended to secure the
community garden area. In addition, it recommended that a security gate also
be added to provide additional security at the trail connection interface. This
will provide additional privacy and security separate from the public access
trail that is providedfurther north (i.e., the public trail connecting Paseo Lupino
with the Old Rancho Santa Fe Road trail).
Response: Security gate and additional fencing has been provided. See detail, sheet 43.

2. It is recommended that additional pedestrian access be provided to Rancho
Santa Fe Road from the southern end of the planned development to allow
for an additional pedestrian access from the development to the La Costa
Town Center shops and the existing businesses at the comer of La Costa
Avenue and Rancho Santa Fe Road.
This additional path within the community would provide additional
pedestrian connection to the sidewalk along Rancho Santa Fe Road .and
would provide for additional walking routes around the development as
well, affording the opportunity for residents to utilize the Old Rancho Santa
Fe Road trails, the Paseo Lupino trail, and the existing sidewalk connections along
Rancho Santa Fe Road. This recommendation is highly desirable and is in line
with the City's Livable Streets initiative for providing a more pedestrian friendly
residential neighborhood and community.
Response: This is not feasible. This would require ramping for over 15 feet of elevation
and 200 linear feet of ramp to access Rancho Santa Fe Road. in addition, this would be a
safety concern by enticing pedestrian traffic to cross Rancho Santa Fe Road at mid-
block. Onsite walks provide a safer, more direct route to the signalized intersection at
Paseo Lupino and Rancho Santa Fe Road.

SUBJECT: 2nd REVIEW FOR CT 12-05/PUD 12-07/V 12-02 -LA COSTA RESIDENTIAL
Dear Ms. Tornillo,
This letter is considered to be supplemental to the January 14, 2013 completeness letter that the
Planning Department sent out following our review of the December 12, 2012 resubmittal of the La
Costa Residential project. In that letter it was stated that the Fire Department comments would follow
under separate cover. The Fire Department has since reviewed the 2"• submittal of the project and has

ISSUES OF CONCERN
Planning:
1. Noise Study. Please address the following issues:
a. Figure 1-2, Figure 4-1, Figure 4-2, and Figure 5-1 are illegible as it relates to identifying the
Lot #s. Please revise these exhibits within the document and resubmit.
b. In addition to Lots 1-9, the document discusses noise impacts to Lots 28 and 29. Is
reference to Lot 29 a typo; and should this instead be Lot 27? Please confirm.
c. Figure 5-1 requires a 6 foot barrier extending in the easterly direction towards the edge of
the existing trail separating this project from the adjacent homes. However, the proposed
landscape submittal shows a 6 foot barrier following the lot lines of these proposed lots.
Please address any inconsistencies.
d. Please see attached redlines for clarifications of the above. Revise accordingly.
2. Sheet 1 (Title Sheet). Please address the following issues:
a. Please revise Development Summary Items #3 and #4 to include the Open Space (OS) Land
Use designation that exists on this property in addition to the RM.
b. Please revise the proposed density (3.2 du/ac) that is labeled in Development Summary
Item #8 as the project's density is based on the net developable acreage, and not gross
acreage (9.96 acres). It is important to note that the net developable acreage should
exclude the improved portion of Rancho Santa Fe Road and Paseo Lupino, along with the 1.9
acres of existing General Plan designated Open Space (OS). Based on this, the net
developable acreage for this project should be 5.77 acres. Please confirm the following
acreages (Gross Acreage (9.96 acres) -Improved Rancho Santa Fe Road/Paseo Lupino (2.2
acres)-Existing GP designated OS (1.9 acre)= Net Developable Acreage (5.77 acres)). If this
is correct, then the project should have a density of 5.5 du/ac. This would be within the RM
density range, but just below the Growth Management Control Point.
c. Please revise Development Summary Item #19 as the 4.56 acres of open space does not
match that shown in the Lot Summary Table on Sheet 8.
d. Please revise any inconsistent lot numbers between the Key Map and other sheets. For
example the Key Map has Open Space Lots A and C, whereas Sheet 5 has Lots 33 and 35 for
the very same lots.
3. Sheet 2 (Typical Sections Lot Area). Please address the following issues:
a. Please note, the lot area table is no longer on this sheet. Please rename the sheet.
b. Please add cross section details for all of the Private Drive Aisles (A, B, and C). Be sure to
label the location of the property lines as each of these are individual lots.
CT 12-05/PUD 12-07/V 12-02~ COSTA RESIDENTIAL
January 14, 2013 •
Pa e4
c. Please revise the cross section detail for Private Street A to identify the location of property
lines.
d. Instead of providing a note, please revise the Parallel Parking Space Detail to include an
example of the 20ft. length where a parallel space is located adjacent to a drive aisle and/or
driveway pan. This can easily be accomplished by converting one of the 24ft. lengths.
e. Please note that the perpendicular parking spaces proposed in the plans do not match the
Perpendicular Parking Detail. If a parking overhang is to be used in order to meet the
minimum area requirements for a parking space, then please revise the exhibit to match.
Re-label this exhibit to also include Private Drive C.
f. Please relocate the Parking Summary table to the architectural site plan on Sheet 7 or Sheet
8.
4. Sheet 3 (Existing Conditions and Easements). The Easement Table that is provided on this sheet
includes two (2) rows ofthe same easement information identified and listed under Item No. 17.
However, the column entitled "Deposition" is different for each one of these rows; one
indicating that the easement is "to be vacated," and the other indicating that the same
easement is "to remain." Please revise these inconsistencies to clarify intent.
5. Sheet 5 (Proposed Conditions). Please address the following issues:
a. Please revise any inconsistent lot numbering/lettering. For example Lots 33 and 35 on this
sheet are the same as Lots A and Con the Key Map (Sheet 1, Title Sheet).
b. Please label lot numbering/lettering on this sheet for the Open Space recreation lot located
in the center of the project and the Open Space lot that is adjacent to Rancho Santa Fe
Road.
c. The perpendicular parking stalls located adjacent to Private Drives A and C do not meet the
minimum area requirements of the Carlsbad Municipal Code Chapter 21.44, nor do they
match the typical detail provided on Sheet 2. They appear to scale at approximately 9' by
17', which equates to 153 sq. ft. in area, where 170 sq. ft. is required. Look to the vehicle
parking overhang (C.M.C. Section 21.44.050(A)) allowance as a possible way to resolve this
issue. This will likely require slightly widening the sidewalk in front of the spaces along
Private Drive A in order to accommodate pedestrian accessibility. For the three spaces
located in Private Drive C, be sure to label any proposed overhang. Revise all plans to be
consistent.
6. Sheet 6 (Proposed Conditions). Please address the following issues:
a. Please revise the location of the proposed public trail connections to avoid any impacts with
the existing utilities that are located within this area. Please revise all plans to be consistent.
b. Please revise the plans to extend the proposed trail next to the community garden area to
also connect with the existing asphalt trail similar to what is proposed in the landscape
plans. Please revise all plans to be consistent.

7. Sheet 7 (Architectural Site Plan). Please address the following issues:
a. Please increase the scale of this sheet to 1" = 40' scale. There is too much information on
this plan, and at the 1" =50' scale it is too difficult to read.
b. Front setbacks for Lots 15 -21 need to be measured to the property line behind the
sidewalk, not the curb of the drive-aisle.
c. Please label all lots on the architectural site plan that are subject to the slope edge building
setback (see C.M.C. 21.95.120{1)) and demonstrate project compliance with this standard.
Our calculations indicate that lots 2-15 are subject to this requirement.
d. Please revise Slope Edge Building Setback, Section Detail D-D to more accurately reflect the
grading conditions of this slope with the 8 ft. combination retaining/glass noise wall. Be
sure to include in the detail the locations of the noise wall, property line, and projected
slope edge as recently discussed. ·
e. Please include additional Slope Edge Building Setback section details for lots 7 and 9. Please
note that the residential unit proposed on lot 9 is subject to slope edge building setbacks on
two (2) sides. At least two section details relating to the slopes facing Old Rancho Santa Fe
Road and the existing Rancho Santa Fe Road are necessary to determine if the home
proposed on lot 9 is compliant.
8. Sheet 8 (Private Rec. Area and lot Summarvl. Please address the following issues:
a. Please calculate the total lot area column and insert the figure into the missing space.
b. Please add two (2) columns to the lot Summary Table that identifies the minimum Side Yard
Setback and Rear Yard Setback for each residential lot. See Planned Development -Table D
(C.M.C. 21.45.070) for the individual requirements.
c. For Lots 20, 26, and 28, please revise to include a similar dimension as provided on all other
lots showing the degree of encroachment by the proposed covered patios for purposes of
determining the minimum 15ft. dimension requirement for private recreation areas.
9. landscape Plans. Please address the following issues:
a. The noise study identifies a requirement of Yz" thick glass as one of the wall materials
allowed to be used in properly mitigating noise levels within the project. The proposed
"combo wall" details that are provided for both the 6ft. and 8ft. walls call for W' thick glass.
Please revise plans to comply with the noise study.
b. Please revise the location of the proposed public trail connections to avoid impacts with the
existing utilities located in this area.
c. On Sheet 42 (Passive Park Enlargement), the note pointing to the Active Play Area needs to
be revised. The Planned Development Regulations-Table C (C.M.C. 21.45.060) allows for a
grassy play area with a slope of "less than 5%." The plans are labeled "5% max." Please
revise this and any other areas of the plans that could be impacted by this requirement.

d. Please incorporate a decorative color concrete band adjacent to the enhanced paving at
each street and driveway entrance to better separate the enhanced pavers and asphalt
sections.
e. Please include a detail of the entry pilasters and low "sign" wall. These items should be
approved as part of the development. However, the signage itself that will ultimately go on
the low "sign" wall would be issued under separate permit. Please revise notes.
10. Meandering Sidewalk (Rancho Santa Fe Road}. Please revise the sidewalk/parkway proposed
along Rancho Santa Fe Road to instead provide for a fully detached sidewalk/parkway.
Consultation between Engineering and Planning Division staff revealed that a physical
separation between the sidewalk and Rancho Santa Fe Road is preferred. In addition, we have
discussed an option to increase the parkway width along this frontage that we would like to
share with you as a possible solution to increase the parkway without the need for retaining
walls (please see the attached exhibit). Please review and follow up with a meeting to discuss.
11. Please see the completed Planned Development-Tables C and D and also City Council Policy 44
and 66 tables. Please address all of the comments identified in red text and revise project
accordingly.
Engineering:
1. A combination of numbers and letters in lot numbering is not acceptable. Please revise lot
numbering so lots, including residential, open space and private street lots, are numbered
consecutively starting from one {1) throughout the subdivision.
2. Please add remedial (over excavation) grading quantity as recommended by the soils engineer
(page 2 of soil's report dated November 16, 2012).
3. The recent soils report update did not include design recommendations for the proposed
bioretention basins. Please provide a soils update letter addressing the suitability of the
proposed bioretention basins at the proposed locations as shown on the site plan. The update
letter should include bioretention design recommendations, including set-back requirement
from top of slopes.
4. Change the project title shown on the site plan and reports from "La Costa Town Square" to "La
Costa Residential".
5. It is indicated on page 10 of the preliminary SWMP report that the orifice sizing calculations will
be provided during final engineering. However, the bioretention detail shown on the site plan
should include a detail of the outlet structure similar to the detail shown on page 93 of the City
SUSMP (see attached detail), showing the location of the orifice and overflow catch basin to
capture larger storm events.
6. Please verify sewer easement and water easement requirements from Leucadia Wastewater
District and Olivenhain Municipal Water District and show the required utility easement widths
on the site plan.
7. Comply with comments shown in red on the preliminary site plan and tentative map.

Half (50%) of the required arterial setback area located closest to the arterial shall be
fully landscaped to enhance the street scene and buffer homes from traffic on adjacent
arterials, and:
•
•
Shall contain a minimum of one 24" box tree for everv 30 lineal feet of street
frontage; and
Shall be commonly owned and maintained
Plans indicate that the street trees are 24" box size and they are currently spaced at an
average 47 lineal feet along Rancho Santa Fe Road. There are background trees but plans
indicate that they are to be 15 gallon size minimum. Please revise plans providing for one 24"
box size tree for every 30 lineal feet of street frontage.
2A. Wall vines or other plantings are needed along this wall to soften it from view. Please
address.
Parks:
1. Connectivity of the housing development private trail connection to the existing Old Rancho
Santa Fe Road trail could benefit from inclusion of a security gate and additional fencing. It is
recommended that the same type of 6 ft. tall combo wall with glass, as shown on Sheet 45, be
extended to secure the community garden area. In addition, it recommended that a security
gate also be added to provide additional security at the trail connection interface. This will
provide additional privacy and security separate from the public access trail that is provided

further north (i.e., the public trail connecting Paseo Lupino with the Old Rancho Santa Fe Road
trail).
2. It is recommended that additional pedestrian access be provided to Rancho Santa Fe Road from
the southern end of the planned development to allow for an additional pedestrian access from
the development to the La Costa Town Center shops and the existing businesses at the corner of
La Costa Avenue and Rancho Santa Fe Road.
This additional path within the community would provide additional pedestrian connection to
the sidewalk along Rancho Santa Fe Road and would provide for additional walking routes
around the development as well, affording the opportunity for residents to utilize the Old
Rancho Santa Fe Road trails, the Paseo Lupino trail, and the existing sidewalk connections along
Rancho Santa Fe Road. This recommendation is highly desirable and is in line.with the City's
Livable Streets initiative for providing a more pedestrian friendly residential neighborhood and
community.

Re: La Costa Town Square Residential Property-Request to purchase housing credits
Dear Ms. Tornillo:
Thank you for your proposal dated December 12, 2012 regarding your client's request to
purchase housing credits in an offsite combined housing development to satisfy the
inclusionary obligation for the La Costa Town Square residential property (CT 12-05). Based on
your correspondence, the property owner intends to build 32 single family homes and has
determined it is not feasible to construct the low income affordable units on site.
As requested, the Housing Policy Team did review and give serious consideration to your
proposal and related arguments, and then determined that it could support your proposal to
purchase housing credits from the City of Carlsbad to satisfy the inclusionary requirement for
the said project. It should be noted, however, that the matter must still be considered by the
City Council and approved. The Housing Policy Staff team, however, will recommend approval
of the purchase of credits.
Please note that if you satisfy your requirement offsite, and build 32 homes on the original La
Costa Town Square site, you will be required to purchase six (6) housing credits total. You will
also be purchasing those credits within the Cassia Heights Affordable Apartment project, rather
than the Villa Lorna development (which has sold all of its credits). The current price for those
housing credits in Cassia Heights is $57,465. Your client, however, will be required to pay the
credit price in effect at the time of purchase (building permit). The credit price is scheduled to
increase by the percentage of CPI each year (typically revised in September). Therefore,
depending on when your client pulls the building permits, the credit price could be higher than
it is today.
The appropriate conditions will be set forth within the approving resolutions for the subject
project. Once the Planning Commission has taken action to approve your project and assuming
the Commission accepts the purchase of credits as the appropriate means for satisfying the
inclusionary ordinance, our office will process an affordable housing agreement for your client's
signature and then present said agreement to the City Council for approval to purchase credits.

Subject: La Costa Town Center Residential Development-Request to Purchase
Off-site Affordable Housing Credits
Dear Ms. Fountain:
This letter serves as a formal request by Taylor Morrison of California, LLC, acting on
behalf of the property owners of the La Costa Town Center Residential Property to
satisfy the affordable housing obligations through the purchase of off-site affordable
housing credits in the existing Villa Lorna development as permitted by CMC 21.85 and
City Council Policy 57.
The La Costa Town Center residential project proposes the construction of 32 single
family detached condominium units on a 9.9 acre site located on the north side of Rancho
Santa Fe Road at Paseo Lupino. The units are proposed to range from approximately
1800 to 2500 square feet, with an average projected sales price of approximately
$615,000.
The original proposal under the master development of La Costa Town Center, includin~
this property, was proposed to be multi-family residential condominiums. On July 15
2009, the multi-family residential condominium development was approved by Planning
Commission. Subsequently in August 2009, City Council rejected a designation of multi-
family residential condominium and conditioned the property to be single family
detached residential.
The current application and the preliminary review of the Tentative Map CT 12-05 is
filed with the City as of last September. The present application is for a single family
detached residential development of 32 units. This application is proposing under City
Council policy 57 to enter into an agreement for the purchase of credits from Villa Lorna
Combined Inclusionary Housing.
Due to constraints imposed by the project setback requirements along Rancho Santa Fe
Road and the City's Planned Development Ordinance, the project is highly constrained.
The project is anticipated to be scheduled for Planning Commission consideration in June
2013.

The options that are available to a developer to satisfy the inclusionary housing
obligations are: 1) construct affordable units on-site, 2) participate in an off-site
combined inclusionary housing project in accordance with the requirements set forth in
Chapter 21.85 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code and City Council Policy 57 dated August
8, 1995, or 3) enter into an agreement with the City to purchase credits from the Villa
Lorna Combined Inclusionary Housing Project in accordance with City Council Policy 58
dated September 12, 1995.
In the case of the La Costa Town Center Residential application, there are particular
circumstances that warrant this project's participation in the purchase of credits in the
Villa Lorna project, pursuant to Council Policy 58 criteria. Significant feasibility issues
in addition to surrounding compatibility affect the provision of on site affordable units as
discussed below.
• Given the small size of the project (32 total units) and the restricted sale prices
that would be associated with affordable units (approximately $200,000 based on
a providing a 1400 square foot two bedroom unit affordable at 80% AMI), as
discussed below, it will not be possible to make the project profitable and
economically feasible with on-site affordable units.
• The projected cost of land acquisition, carrying the land, improving the site on a
32 unit basis is in excess of $270,000 per unit. The cost of bringing a market rate
unit to sale including permit fees, construction and sales costs is approximately
$240,000. This leaves approximately $105,000 or 20% per unit for contingency
and pre tax profit, based on an average sales price of $615,000.
• The construction of the 5 affordable units on-site at a cost of $510,000 per unit
and a sales price of $200,000 would result in the project's market-rate units being
required to subsidize the 5 affordable units by over $55,000 per market unit or
nearly $1.5 million dollars. This represents over 60% of the project's pre-tax
profit and contingency funds.
• The development cannot afford to build affordable housing product on-site. The
purchase of 5 credits in the Villa Lorna combined affordable housing project at a
cost of approximately $250,000 will reduce the projected profit and contingency
funds to approximately I 0% and maintain the project's feasibility.
• The project's density cannot be increased to absorb the onsite affordable housing
as the average lot size are at a minimum of 3,500 SF, and this represents the
minimum amount allowed under Section 24.4570 of the City's Zoning Code for
Planned Developments.
• Of the 9.9 acres, 3-acres will be dedicated open space due to existing site
conditions and it is infeasible to increase the developable area.
. . l • • • •
This request complies with City Ordinances and City Council policies previously adopted
by the City Council.:
Contribution to the existing off-site project versus providing 5 affordable units on-site
will also result in increased public benefit by returning funding into those affordable
developments and contributing to the use in other affordable housing activities. In
addition the project will be completing the last remaining pedestrian improvements along
the northern frontage of Rancho Santa Fe Road.
Please call if you need additional information or if we may be of any other assistance.
We look forward to receiving your response to this request.
Sincerely,
April Tornillo

OEC 1 2 2012
CITY OF CARLSBAD
PLANNING DIVIS!ON
On behalf of our client, Taylor Morrison we are pleased to re-submit this package for the La
Costa Residential project. Below is a point by point response to your letter dated October 25,
2012, our responses are in bold.
Planning:
1. Constraints Map. It is unclear how the identified density of 5.2 du/ac is being
determined based on the percentage (23%) of undevelopable acreage provided in the
Development Summary section of the plans labeled on Sheet 1. Please provide a
constraints map/analysis (density determination pursuant to 21.53.230 of the Carlsbad
Municipal Code) as a separate sheet to the submittal package identifying the net
developable acreage of the project site. Please also see Pg. 5, Section D of the
Development Permit (Form P-2) requirements.
Response: The La Costa Residential site was a part of the La Costa Town Square
approvals. This property is a previously graded parcel. According to the requirements
for Planned Development Permits, the application checklist states the following under
Constraints Map: "(NOTE: This information is not required for previously graded sites
and the conversion of existing structures.) If the constraint does not apply to the
property, list it on the map as not applicable." We have noted on the plans that a
Constraints Map is not applicable.
To assist Staff, we have clarified the density calculation as follows: The net area used
to determine density excludes streets, private drives and steep slopes; see Slope

Analysis included with this submittal. The resulting developable acreage is 5.2,
yielding 32 units at 6 dwelling units per acre as desired by the Growth Management
Control Point for this area.
2. Slope Analysis. Please provide a slope analysis in accordance with Section 21.95.110(A)
of the Carlsbad Municipal Code.
Response: A slope analysis is included with this submittal for staff's review.
3. Slope Profiles. Please provide slope profiles in accordance with Section 21.95.110(8) of
the Carlsbad Municipal Code.
Response: Slope profiles are shown on the Slope Analysis exhibit.
4. Noise Study. Please provide a noise study consistent with the City of Carlsbad Noise
Guidelines Manual. The noise study is required to identify the need for and to allow a
noise wall within the 50 foot arterial landscape setback and any other requirements as
deemed necessary to comply with the guidelines.
Response: A Noise Study is included with this submittal. Walls and fences have been
incorporated on the Landscape Concept Plan based upon the Noise Study.
5. Color Board(s). Please provide color boards (no larger than 9" x 12" in size) showing
building materials and color samples of glass, reveals, aggregate, wood, etc. which is
consistent the project proposal.
Response: Color boards are included with this submittal for staff's review.
6. Architectural Site Plan. Please provide a detailed architectural site plan of the project
that includes at a minimum the following information:
a. Architectural plotting of all homes. Please be sure to label each of the plotted
homes with the proposed plan type (i.e., Plan I, II, or Ill), architectural style (i.e.,
Spanish, Monterey, or Santa Barbara), and color scheme that will be associated
with that specific lot. The overall site plan should demonstrate a well thought
out and coordinated development pattern that is consistent with City Council
Policy 44, shows variation between housing types and is aesthetically pleasing to
the neighborhood.
b. Dimension all building setbacks. Please be sure to also include any optional patio
covers, decks, balconies, etc. and also any architectural projections (i.e.,

Sheet 7.
8. Parking Summary. Please include as part of the plans, preferably within the
architectural site plan, a parking summary table describing the following:
Response: A parking summary has been added to Sheet 2.
9. Lot Summary. Please include as part of the plans, preferably within the architectural
site plan, a table describing the following information. The lot summary table will need
to be expanded beyond what is shown in the example below to include all lots within
the subdivision.
Please be aware that according to footnote #1 of C.M.C. 21.45.070(A) -Table D, lot
width is to be measured 20ft. behind the front property line.
Response: A lot summary table is added to Sheet 8 for staff's review.
10. Building Elevation Design Elements. Please include a building elevation design elements
table as part of the plans identifying the following design elements as required by the
City Council Policy 44 Neighborhood Architectural Design Guidelines. The table can be
included within the architectural site plan or provided as a separate exhibit to be
approved as part of the project staff report. The table will need to be expanded beyond
the example shown below to include all plan types that are being proposed. Please
check all design elements that apply. Please see City Council Policy 44-Neighborhood
Architectural Design Guidelines on the specific number of design elements that are
required for each plan type. Revise all elevations where any deficiencies are occurring.
Response: A Building Elevation Design Elements table is shown on the Architectural
Site Plan, Sheet 7.
11. Slope Edge Building Setbacks. Please label all lots on the requested architectural site
plan (see above) that are subject to the slope edge building setback (see C.M.C.

detail for each plan type/architectural variation being proposed. Be sure to include any
optional patio covers or balconies that you might be including. Attached is an example
for you to follow of a typical detail that was prepared as part of PD -5-ll(B)-Villages of
La Costa North, Neighborhood 3.1.
Response: Lots subject to the slope edge building setback have been called out on the
Architectural Site Plan. A typical detail for each plan type has been added. See
Architectural Site Plan, Sheet 7.
12. For comparative analysis and making the findings to support a variance for smaller lot
sizes, the Preliminary Review (PRE 12-13) letter dated July 26, 2012 (see Planning Item
#3) required that you show the total dwelling unit yield if the project were developed
with 5,000 sq. ft. lots. Please include this analysis as requested.
Response: We have included an exhibit showing all 5,000 square foot lots per staffs
request. At 5,000 square foot lots, the project would yield 26 units (4 dulac). With the
Variance request for 3,500 square foot lots, the project increases to 32 units (5 dulac).
13. lnclusionary Housing. All residential projects are subject to the City's lnclusionary
Housing Ordinance, Chapter 21.85 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code. Please indicate how
the project intends to satisfy its inclusionary housing component. Please consult with
Debbie Fountain, Housing & Neighborhood Services Director, prior to resubmitting the
revised project.
Response: A letter of request to purchase off-site affordable housing credits is being
contemplated and outlined in the letter dated 12-12-12 to Deborah Fountain.
ISSUES OF CONCERN
Planning:
1. Please resubmit all revised plans on sheets no greater in size than 24" x 36".

along Rancho Santa Fe?
Response: The tentative map title sheet has been revised to show all buildings, private
streets/drives, and open space lots.
4. Please show sidewalk/parkway improvements for the areas of the project fronting along
Paseo Lupine and Rancho Santa Fe Road.
Response: Sidewalk/parkway improvements fronting along Paseo Lupino and Rancho
Santa Fe are shown on Sheets 4 and 5.
5. Please show the existing sidewalk/parkway improvements along the north side of Corte
Breza so that we can determine how the transition between the proposed project and
the adjacent residential development is occurring. Please update all plans to be
consistent throughout (especially the landscape plans).
Response: See sheet 5 for connection to Corte Breza.
6. The "Typical Lot Setback" detail shown on Sheet 2 is not applicable to this project as
setbacks and lot configurations are not typical, but instead are site specific to each lot
per the Planned Development regulations and the plotting that is ultimately finalized
and indicated on the required architectural site p_lan that has yet to be submitted (see
incompleteness items above). Please remove this detail from plans.
Response: We have removed the Typical Lot Setback from Sheet 2.
7. Please revise plans to show any noise walls, fences, courtyard walls, retaining walls, etc.
Response: All walls and fences are shown on the landscape sheets for staff's review.
8. On the Architectural Site Plan and the Tentative Map sheets, please add Approval Block
No. 2 to the plans. This can be found on the Planning Division's web page at the

Response: Approval Block 2 has been added to the Tentative Map and Architectural
Site Plan per staffs request.
9. Planned Development Regulations. This project is subject to compliance with Table C
(General Development Standards) and Table D (One-Family Dwelling and Twin Homes
on Small Lot) of the Planned Development regulations outlined in Chapter 21.45 of the
Carlsbad Municipal Code. Attached to this letter are the two tables, which will
eventually accompany the project staff report demonstrating the project's overall
compliance. We have provided comments in each of the compliance comment sections
of the table where additional information, clarifications, or revision to the project plans
are necessary. Please review these tables and revise the project and plans to meet each
ofthese requirements as applicable.
Response: Please refer to responses on Table C attached.
10. Council Policy 44 and 66. Pursuant to Table D of the Planned Development regulations
Section 21.45.070, the project must demonstrate compliance with Council Policy 66
(Livable Neighborhood Policy) and Council Policy 44 (Architectural Requirements).
Please find attached two tables covering each of these policies, which will eventually
accompany the project staff report demonstrating the project's overall compliance. We
have provided comments in each of the compliance comment sections of the table
where additional information, clarifications, or revision to the project plans are
necessary. Please review these tables and revise the project and plans to meet each of
these requirements as applicable.
Response: Please refer to responses on the Council Policy table attached.
11. Garage Setback. We do not support the minimum 18 ft. typical setback for garages as
shown in the "Typical Lot Setback" detail provided on Sheet 2 of the proposed plans.
The reason being is that a single-family home typically provides a minimum 20 ft.
setback to the garage, which provides adequate distance between the face of the
garage and the sidewalk for parking a vehicle in the driveway and avoiding any sort of
vehicle overhang from projecting out into the sidewalk and furthermore inhibiting
pedestrian maneuverability. Where we have developed similar projects, it is preferred
that the homes be designed and plotted such that either a typical 20 ft. setback be
provided (allowing for a vehicle to comfortably park in the driveway) or the minimum
allowed under Planned Development Regulations. In this case, Table D of the Planned
Development regulations (C.M.C. 21.45.070) would allow for a minimum garage setback
of 3ft. when facing directly onto a private drive-aisle. While 3ft. is allowed by code, we
find that a minimum of 5 ft. is more aesthetically preferred for designing the
neighborhood, but will still provide the necessary effect for discouraging parking in the

driveway. Please be aware that there is a minimum setback of 20 ft. for direct entry
garages located on a private street. such as Private Street A.
Response: The layout has been revised to provide at least 20 foot typical setback for
garages. See Architectural Site Plan, Sheet 7.
12. Perpendicular/Parallel Parking Detail. Please provide a typical detail of the proposed
perpendicular parking spaces and parallel spaces proposed along the private drive aisles
and Private Street A. Development standards covering stall sizes can be reviewed in
section 21.44.050{a) of the C.M.C. A standard parking space, such as the proposed
perpendicular spaces, require at a minimum 170 sq. ft. in area and a minimum width of
8.5 ft. A maximum overhang of 2.5 ft. is allowed provided the overhang does not
encroach into any required landscape setback areas. Parallel parking spaces require a
minimum length of 24 feet, exclusive of driveway/drive-aisle entrances and aprons;
minimum length of 20 feet if located immediately adjacent to a driveway/drive-aisle
apron; and minimum width of 7ft. The spaces shown on the proposed plans do appear
to meet these requirements.
Response: Typical details have been added on Sheet 2.
13. For the purposes of calculating lot coverage, please include the area {sq. ft.) of any
optional covered patios as part of the floor area tables that are included with each of
the proposed floor plans.
Response: Please refer to the lot summary which shows the lot coverage with and
without covered patio option, see Sheet 8.
14. It is assumed from each of the floor plans that the optional covered patios would be
structurally integrated into the architecture of the home based on their location and the
design shown on the plans. However, what is unclear is how the patio covers would be
covered or integrated into the proposed rooflines. It is your intent that the main
roofline for each proposed home be revised to extend over these spaces, or are they
going to consist of an open roof type cover that would extend out perpendicularly from
the rear yard elevations? It is important to be clear on the plans and consider all
impacts that could occur, in that the existing rooflines as proposed would not easily
accommodate the optional patio cover given their slope orientations, and if they were
to be extended or revised this could conflict with the slope edge building setbacks; the
plan change requirements discussed in the City Council Policy 44; change the overall
appearance and orientation of roofline as it relates to the hillside development
guidelines; and furthermore it could significantly change the overall architecture that
will ultimately be approved as part of this project necessitating subsequent consistency

determinations or amendments to the project in the future. Please revise the
elevations to clarify.
Response: BLA has provided elevations of optional patios and decks on sheets 13-14,
16-17, 19-20, 23-24, 26-27, 29-30, 33-34, 36-37, and 39-40 to indicating the
relationship of the optional patio and deck to each plan and elevation style.
15. Please revise plans to show how the project relates/connects with the existing trail
system along the north and east sides of the project. The plans do not presently
illustrate how the proposed trails will connect with these existing trails. It is expected
that the trails connect. Please consult with Liz Ketabian in the Parks Department
regarding this issue and revise plans accordingly to show compliance.
Response: A note has been added to show connection to the trail on the Landscape
Concept Plan.
16. Please include volume of grading calculation as part of the grading analysis provided on
Sheet. For calculating volume of grading please see C.M.C. 21.95.120 (D).
Response: The grading calculations per CMC 21.95.120(0} can be found on the
Tentative Map, Sheet 1.
17. Please show the existing concrete spillway that is located on the northwesterly side of
the site and label on the plan that it is to be removed.
Response: The concrete spillway is shown on the Tentative Map and noted as "to be
removed", see sheet 5.
18. The landscape concept plans need to be updated and revised to include the triangular
piece of property extending along the public trail northeast of Lot 22, and also the area
along the project frontage west of the location where the public trail intersects Paseo
Lupine.
Response: Completed.

1. The bioretention areas shown on the preliminary site plan appear to be less than the
required areas calculated using the sizing factors given in Table 7-1 of the HMP manual.
As previously commented (see Item 4 of the City comment letter for PRE 12-13 dated
July 24, 2012), the limit of the bioretention surface area is determined by the extent
(area) of the engineered soil (planting mix) layer where ponding and infiltration occurs,
and is governed by the outlet spillway elevation. Please provide details and cross-
sections for each of the proposed bioretention basins. On the preliminary grading plan,
please delineate the surface area limit of the bioretention basins as defined above,
show the bottom (flat area) and side slopes and ensure that the surface areas provided
are greater than or equal to the required sizes per calculations shown in the SWMP
report.
Response: The bioretention areas have been designed according ta the minimum
required areas/volumes from the HMP. Since the bioretention basins will contain an
impervious liner, the flow-through planter sizing factors have been used. Cross section,
details and surface areas are shown on Sheets 5 and 6.
2. The bioretention labeled as BMP2 in the DMA map provided in the SWMP appears to be
a linear swale. Please provide longitudinal and transverse cross-section details. Check
dams should be provided to allow ponding and infiltration. Provide treatment layer and
storage volume. (See page 86 of City SUSMP for check dam design criteria).
Response: BMP 2 has been reconfigured as a basin and is no longer a linear swale.
3. The proposed bioretention basins located at the westerly corner of the site labeled as
BMP1 appears to extend to the edge of the slopes. Please consult the soil engineer for a
minimum edge distance required for slopes' stability. On page 3 of the updated
geotechnical investigation prepared by Southern California Soil and Testing, Inc., it is
indicated this preliminary site plan was not available during the preparation of the
update geotechnical investigation. Please have the soils engineer review the preliminary
site plan and obtain soils engineer approval for the suitability of the all proposed
bioretention BMPs. Obtain design recommendations such as the minimum required
distance to the edge of the slopes, impermeable lining requirements (if any), etc.
Submit an update letter from soils engineer with the next submittal.
Response: Per Leighton & Associates recommendation: Plans show a 20 mil HDPE liner
with a 2 inch layer of sand below the liner to prevent puncturing liner due to rocky fill
in the bioretention basins bottom. The bottom of the bioretention has fall away from
the slope or fall towards the center towards the subdrain system.
4. If the soils engineering requires impermedable lining for bioretention basins, then
bioretention basins must be sized using sizing factors for flow-through planters. A lined
H:\1100\1136.00\Docs\Draft Response Lener.dot
Chris DeCerbo

• •
bioretention basin functions like a flow through planter since it does not allow
infiltration into the native soil. The sizing actors for a flow through planter are much
larger than that of the bioretention. Larger bioretention basins, if needed, will
significantly impact the current design/layout. I suggest you explore other BMPs
options such as bioretention plus vault, etc.
Response: The bioretention basins will contain impermeable linings, and have been
sized as flow-through planters.
5. The preliminary grading plan shows that the outlet pipes form BMP3 and BMP4 are
connected into a storm drain that discharges into BMP1. It appears that the already
treated run-off from BMP3 and BMP4 co-mingle with the untreated run-off in BMPl.
BMP1 is not designed to treat additional flows from BMP3 and BMP4. Please revise to
route the already treated run-off from BMPs 3 and 4 directly to the off-site drainage
system. Per hydrology report, the same storm drain system routes the 100-year storm
to be detained in BMPl. This may overwhelm BMPl.
Response: The plans have been revised to so that BMP 2, 3 and 4 will connect to the
existing of/site storm drain so that they will not be comingled with BMP l. Flows into
BMP 1 will be treated independently prior to discharging into the of/site storm drain
system as well.
Staff suggests that BMPs 1, 3 and 4 be designed to each handle both the water quality
run-off and 100-year storm run-off from each of their tributary DMAs. The outlet pipe
from each BMPs shall be connected directly to off-site storm drain system. Please
provide preliminary cross-section detail for the proposed bioretention BMP shown on
the site plan. Include a detail of the outlet structure and show the locations of the
required orifices (for hydromodification and 100-year storm flows).
Response: The BMP's will handle both water quality and 100-year flows with outlet
pipes connecting to an of/site drainage facility. Preliminary cross-section details are
now provided.
6. The SWMP report indicates that DMAl drains into two separate bioretention basins
located at the westerly corner of the site, both labeled as BMPl. Show how these two
basins are connected to act as one basin. I suggest that DMA1 be divided two separate
DMAs, one DMA for each bioretention basin.
Response: DMA l is no longer a split basin. Each bioretention basin/flow-through
planter will have a unique upstream drainage area.

7. The proposed pervious pavers at the driveway entrance are labeled as BMP5 to treat
DMA5. Pervious pavers are not considered a treatment/hydromodification BMP since
they have no numerically sized treatment or storage layer per SUSMP sizing criteria. A
small portion of the driveway entrance that drains into Paseo lupine, if paved with
pervious pavement that meets certain criteria provided in the City SUSMP (see page 82
of City SUSMP) are considered self-treating. Self-treating areas do not require
additional treatment or flow control BMP if they drain directly off-site. However, self-
treating pervious pavers cannot treat additional area. Revise the limits of DMA5 on the
DMA map and provide a separate BMP/IMP for DMA 5 or route DMA 5 to BMPl.
Response: The pervious pavers at the driveway entrance have been increased in area
in order to act as self-treating BMPs.
8. Please show a meandering sidewalk along Rancho Santa Fe Road on the revised site
plan, for consistency with the Rancho Santa Fe Road corridor.
Response: Please refer to sheets 4 and 5.
9. The project site is shown as Parcel 1 in the recorded Parcel Map No. 20982. Please
provide two (2) copies of an updated title report reflecting this information.
Response: An updated Title Report is included with this submittal. Legal description
has been updated.
10. Meet with the Fire Department to identify the necessary fire protection measures
required for this project (access, fire hydrants, sprinkler systems, etc.). All proposed fire
hydrants must be served by public water mains.
Response: We received positive comments from the Fire Department during our
Preliminary Review. We were requested to follow up once detail is provided on our
Tentative Map, which is included with this submittal. We will continue to coordinate
with the Fire Department.

Small lot) of the Planned Development regulations outlined in Chapter 21.45 of the
Carlsbad Municipal Code. Attached to this letter are the two tables, which will eventually

have provided comments in each of the compliance comment sections of the table where
additional information, clarifications, or revision to the project plans are necessary. Please

review these tables and revise the project and plans to meet each of these requirements as
applicable.
10. Council Policy 44 and 66. Pursuant to Table D of the Planned Development regulations
Section 21.45.070, the project must demonstrate compliance with Council Policy 66 {livable
Neighborhood Policy) and Council Policy 44 {Architectural Requirements). Please find
attached two tables covering each of these policies, which will eventually accompany the
project staff report demonstrating the project's overall compliance. We have provided
comments in each of the compliance comment sections of the table where additional
information, clarifications, or revision to the project plans are necessary. Please review
these tables and revise the project and plans to meet each of these requirements as
applicable.
11. Garage Setback. We do not support the minimum 18 ft. typical setback for garages as
shown in the "Typical Lot Setback" detail provided on Sheet 2 of the proposed plans. The
reason being is that a single-family home typically provides a minimum 20ft. setback to the
garage, which provides adequate distance between the face of the garage and the sidewalk
for parking a vehicle in the driveway and avoiding any sort of vehicle overhang from
projecting out into the sidewalk and furthermore inhibiting pedestrian maneuverability.
Where we have developed similar projects, it is preferred that the homes be designed and
plotted such that either a typical 20 ft. setback be provided (allowing for a vehicle to
comfortably park in the driveway) or the minimum allowed under Planned Development
Regulations. In this case, Table D of the Planned Development regulations {C.M.C.
21.45.070) would allow for a minimum garage setback of 3 ft. when facing directly onto a
private drive-aisle. While 3 ft. is allowed by code, we find that a minimum of 5 ft. is more
aesthetically preferred for designing the neighborhood, but will still provide the necessary
effect for discouraging parking in the driveway. Please be aware that there is a minimum
setback of 20ft. for direct entry garages located on a private street, such as Private Street A.
12. Perpendicular/Parallel Parking Detail. Please provide a typical detail of the proposed
perpendicular parking spaces and parallel spaces proposed along the private drive-aisles
and Private Street A. Development standards covering stall sizes can be reviewed in section
21.44.050{A) of the C.M.C. A standard parking space, such as the proposed perpendicular
spaces, require at a minimum 170 sq. ft. in area and a minimum width of 8.5 ft. A maximum
overhang of 2.5 ft. is allowed provided the overhang does not encroach into any required
landscape setback areas. Parallel parking spaces require a minimum length of 24 feet,
exclusive of driveway/drive-aisle entrances and aprons; minimum length of 20 feet if
located immediately adjacent to a driveway/drive-aisle apron; and minimum width of 7 ft.
The spaces shown on the proposed plans do appear to meet these requirements.
13. For purposes of calculating lot coverage, please include the area {sq. ft.) of any optional
covered patios as part of the floor area tables that are included with each of the proposed
floor plans.
14. It is assumed from each of the floor plans that the optional covered patios would be
structurally integrated into the architecture of the home based on their location and the
• CT 12-05/PUD 12-07/V 12-02 -lA COSTA RESIDENTIAL • October 25, 2012
Pa e 8
design shown on the plans. However, what is unclear is how the patio covers would be
covered or integrated into the proposed rooflines. Is it your intent that the main roofline
for each proposed home be revised to extend over these spaces, or are they going to consist
of an open roof type cover that would extend out perpendicularly from the rear yard
elevations? It is important to be clear on the plans and consider all impacts that could
occur, in that the existing rooflines as proposed would not easily accommodate the optional
patio cover given their slope orientations, and if they were to be extended or revised this
could conflict with the slope edge building setbacks; the plan change requirements
discussed in the City Council Policy 44; change the overall appearance and orientation of
roofline as it relates to the hillside development guidelines; and furthermore it could
significantly change the overall architecture that will ultimately be approved as part of this
project necessitating subsequent consistency determinations or amendments to the project
in the future. Please revise the elevations to clarify.
15. Please revise plans to show how the project relates/connects with the existing trail system
along the north and east sides of the project. The plans do not presently illustrate how the
proposed trails will connect with these existing trails. It is expected that the trails connect.
Please consult with Liz Ketabian in the Parks Department regarding this issue and revise
plans accordingly to show compliance.
16. Please include volume of grading calculation as part of the grading analysis provided on
Sheet 1. For calculating volume of grading please see C.M.C. 21.95.120(0).
17. Please show the existing concrete spillway that is located on the northwesterly side of the
site and label on the plan that it is to be removed.
18. The landscape concept plans need to be updated and revised to include the triangular piece
of property extending along the public trail northeast of Lot 22, and also the area along the
project frontage west of the location where the public trail intersects Paseo Lupino.
PELA:
Please note that the numbers below are referenced on the returned set of redline plans where
appropriate for ease of locating areas of comment concern.
1. Please coordinate landscape plans with civil plans. Prepare landscape plans on a 50%
screen of the most current civil plan at the same scale as the civil plans.
2. Please show the entire property and address landscaping of all areas.
3. Plans are too conceptual to provide an appropriate review. One symbol is used for all
shrubs and ground covers which may be very different in size and character. Please provide
a separate symbol for each type of shrub (i.e., large evergreen shrub, medium size shrub,
small flowering accent shrub, etc.) and ground covers. Final comments are reserved
pending receipt of more complete plans.

Land Development Engineering:
1. The bioretention areas shown on the preliminary site plan appear to be less than the
required areas calculated using the sizing factors given in Table 7-1 of the HMP manual. As
previously commented (see item 4 of the City comment letter for PRE 12-13 dated July 24,
2012), the limit of the bioretention surface area is determined by the extent (area) of the
engineered soil (planting mix) layer where ponding and infiltration occurs, and is governed
by the outlet spillway elevation. Please provide details and cross-sections for each of the
'• .
' " • • CT 12-05/PUD 12-07/V 12-02-LA COSTA RESIDENTIAL
October 25, 2012
Pa e 13
proposed bioretention basins. On the preliminary grading plan, please delineate the surface
area limit of the bioretention basins as defined above, show the bottom (flat area) and side
slopes and ensure that the surface areas provided are greater than or equal to the required
sizes per calculations shown in the SWMP report.
2. The bioretention labeled as BMP2 in the DMA map provided in the SWMP appears to be a
linear swale. Please provide longitudinal and transverse cross-section details. Check dams
should be provided to allow pending and infiltration. Provide treatment layer and storage
volume. (See page 86 of City SUSMP for check dam design criteria).
3. The proposed bioretention basins located at the westerly corner of the site labeled as BMPl
appears to extend to the edge of the slopes. Please consult the soil engineer for a minimum
edge distance required for slopes' stability. On page 3 of the of the update geotechnical
investigation prepared by Southern California Soil and Testing, Inc., it is indicated this
preliminary site plan was not available during the preparation of the update geotechnical
investigation. Please have the soils engineer review the preliminary site plan and obtain
soils engineer approval for the suitability of the all proposed bioretention BMPs. Obtain
design recommendations such as the minimum required distance to the edge of the slopes,
impermeable lining requirements (if any), etc. Submit an update letter from soils engineer
with the next submittal.
4. If the soils engineer requires impermeable lining for bioretention basins, then bioretention
basins must be sized using sizing factors for flow-through planters. A lined bioretention
basin functions like a flow through planter since it does not allow infiltration into the native
soil. The sizing factors for a flow through planter are much larger than that of the
bioretention. Larger bioretention basins, if needed, will significantly impact the current
design/layout. I suggest you explore other BMPs options such as bioretention plus vault,
etc.
5. The preliminary grading plan shows that the outlet pipes from BMP3 and BMP4 are
connected into a storm drain that discharges into BMPl. It appears that the already treated
run-off from BMP3 and BMP4 co-mingle with the untreated run-off in BMPl. BMP1 is not
designed to treat additional flows from BMP3 and BMP4. Please revise to route the already
treated run-off from BMPs 3 and 4 directly to the off-site drainage system. Per hydrology
report, the same storm drain system routes the 100-year storm to be detained in BMPl.
This may overwhelm BMPl.
Staff suggests that BMPs 1, 3 and 4 be designed to each handle both the water quality run-
off and 100-year storm run-off from each of their tributary DMAs. The outlet pipe from
each BMPs shall be connected directly to off-site stormdrain system. Please provide
preliminary cross-section detail for the proposed bioretention BMP shown on the site plan.
Include a detail of the outlet structure and show the locations of the required orifices (for
hydromodification and 100-year storm flows).
6. The SWMP report indicates that DMAl drains into two separate bioretention basins located
at the westerly corner of the site, both labeled as BMP1. Show how these two basins are
• • CT 12-05/PUD 12-07 /V 12-02-LA COSTA RESIDENTIAL
October 25, 2012
Pa e 14
connected to act as one basin. I suggest that DMA1 be divided two separate DMAs, one
DMA for each bioretention basins.
7. The proposed pervious pavers at the driveway entrance are labeled as BMP5 to treat DMA5.
Pervious pavers are not considered a treatment/hydromodification BMP since they have no
numerically sized treatment or storage layer per SUSMP sizing criteria. A small portion of
the driveway entrance that drains into Paseo Lupino, if paved with pervious pavement that
meets certain criteria provided in the city SUSMP (see page 82 of City SUSMP) are
considered self-treating. Self-treating areas do not require additional treatment or flow
control BMP if they drain directly off-site. However, self-treating pervious pavers cannot
treat additional area. Revise the limits of DMA5 on the DMA map and provide a separate
BMP/IMP for DMA 5 or route DMA 5 to BMP1.
8. Please show a meandering sidewalk along Rancho Santa Fe Road on the revised site plan,
for consistency with the Rancho Santa Fe Road corridor.
9. The project site is shown as Parcel 1 in the recorded Parcel Map No. 20982. Please provide
two (2) copies of an updated title report reflecting this information.
10. Meet with the Fire Department to identify the necessary fire protection measures required
for this project (access, fire hydrants, sprinkler systems, etc.). All proposed fire hydrants
must be served by public water mains.
11. Obtain approval from Leucadia Wastewater District for the proposed sewer system shown
on the site plan.
12. Obtain approval from Olivenhain Municipal Water District for the proposed water system
shown on the site plan.
13. This project will be conditioned to submit CC&Rs or other recorded document addressing
maintenance, repair and replacement of shared improvements such as private roads, BMP
facilities, etc.
14. This project will also be conditioned to provide to the City Engineer, a recorded document
that ensures maintenance of shared private improvements such as stormwater facilities and
storm drains within the proposed subdivision.
15. Comply with all other comments shown on the redlined preliminary SWMP report (see
attached).

On behalf of our client, Taylor Morrison of California, LLC, we are pleased to submit this request for a
Tentative Tract Map, Planned Development Permit, and Variance. The property is located between Old
Rancho Santa Fe Road and Rancho Santa Fe Road, just west of Paseo Lupino, APN 223-05-71. The
property is 9.96 acres, currently vacant and rough graded, and is a part of the overall La Costa Town
Square approval. Specifically, Ordinance CS-051 and Resolution 2009-232 included the approval for an
amendment to the La Costa Master Plan to change the land use on the subject property from Local
Shopping Center and Office to Residential Medium and Open Space. The City Council Ordinance limited
single family detached dwelling units at this site.
The proposed project includes development of the site with 32 single family detached dwelling units and
two open space lots. The site will gain access off of Paseo Lupino via the realigned Rancho Santa Fe
Road. The project maintains the required 1.9 acres of open space as well as the 50 foot setback from
Rancho Santa Fe Road.
Due to the irregular shape of the land, its topography, its unique entitlement history, and in order to
meet the City's Growth Management Control Point for the RM zone, we are requesting a Variance from
the required 5,000 square feet lot area development regulation restriction. The project's proposed lot
sizes range from 3,500 to 6,500 square feet (see attached Site Plan for lot areas). We have addressed
the Justification for Variance as follows:
1. Explain what special circumstances are applicable to the subject property, including size, shape,
topography, location of surroundings, whereby the strict application of the zoning ordinance
deprives such property of privileges enjoyed by other property in the vicinity and under identical
zoning classification:
.. •
Page 2 of3 • •
Justification: The proposed La Costa Single Family Residential site was part of the overall La
Costa Town Square approval. In the 2009 Planning Commission approval, the subject site was
originally permitted as a Multi-Family development to include 128 dwelling units. Because of the
site's adjacency to Single Family development, various conditions were placed upon the
property, which were never modified when the City Council later restricted the site to Single
Family detached dwelling units. There are unique characteristics in which developing the
property with the strict application of zoning ordinance for minimum 5,000 square foot lots
while maintaining all conditions creates a hardship for our client compared to the property
privileges enjoyed by other properties in the RM zone. Additionally, the RM zone allows up to 8
units per acre. The site includes special circumstances including a triangular shape, steep slopes,
requirement to preserve 1.9 acres of open space for a buffer between the site and the adjacent
Single Family development, various easements, and a 50 foot setback requirement from Rancho
Santa Fe Road when together result in hardships. None of the adjoining properties or in the RM
zone contain the same development constraints. Strict application of the code to restrict the lot
areas to 5,000 square feet would develop the property at less than 5 units per acre. The City's
General Plan establishes Growth Management Control Points for various land use designations.
The Growth Management Control Point for the RM zone is 6 dwelling units per acre. To more
appropriately meet this requirement; we believe the granting of the lot area variance is required
which would develop the property at 5.8 dwelling units per acre.
2. Explain why the granting of the variance does not constitute a grant of special privileges
inconsistent with the limitations upon other properties in the vicinity and zone in which the
subject property is located and is subject to any conditions necessary to assure compliance with
this finding:
Justification: The granting of the lot area variance does not constitute a grant of special
privileges because the proposed project is maintaining all restrictions and development
standards placed on the site when the property was originally approved as a Multi-Family
product. The proposed project with the variance request does not increase the density allowed
for the site and is consistent with the surrounding properties in both land uses and densities.
The project will remain as single family detached dwelling units and preserves the 1.9 acres of
open space.
3. Explain why the granting of the variance does not authorize a use or activity which is not
otherwise expressly authorized by the zone regulation governing the subject property:
Justification: The proposed project with the lot area variance does not change the use or activity
which is authorized by the RM zone. The variance request is necessary to develop the property
to more closely meet the City's Growth Management Control Point and the residential needs of
the area given the sites unique and hardship circumstances.
4. Explain why the granting of the variance is consistent with the general purpose and intent of the
General Plan and any applicable specific or Master Plans:
Justification: The La Costa Master Plan calls for Single Family Detached dwelling units and open
space within this area. The proposed project is for 32 single family detached dwelling units and
two open space lots. Granting the lot area variance request is consistent with the general
purpose and intent of the La Costa Master Plan as well as the General Plan by more closely
meeting the City's Growth Management Control Point goals. Granting the variance request will
• • •
allow for 5.8 units per acre on this site where the General Plan identifies a desired 6 dwelling
unit per acre Control Point.
5. If located within the coastal zone, explain why the variance is consistent with and implements
the requirements of the certified local coastal program and that the variance does not reduce or
in any manner adversely affect the protection of coastal resources:
Justification: The proposed project is not located within the coastal zone.
We will concurrently process the vacation of the westerly half of Paseo Lupino and designate it as Open
Space with the processing of the Tentative Map. (Pursuant to the 2009 Planning commission approval
for the site that stated that "once proposed collector roadway not be vacated until the site design of the
multi-family site is completed.")

proposed at the northwesterly corner of Rancho Santa Fe Road and Paseo Lupino. The project
site, an approximately 9.9 acre lot is currently undeveloped.
In response to your application, the Planning Division has prepared this comment letter. Please
note that the purpose of a preliminary review is to provide you with direction and comments on
the overall concept of your project. This preliminary review does not represent an in-depth
analysis of your proiect. It is intended to give you feedback on critical issues based
upon the information provided in your submittal. This review is based upon the plans.
policies. and standards in effect as of the date of this review. Please be aware that at the
time of a formal application submittal. new plans. policies. and standards may be in
effect and additional issues of concern may be raised through a more specific and
detailed review.
Planning:
General
1. General Plan and zoning designations for the property are as follows:
a. General Plan: Residential Medium (RM), 4 to 8 units/ac. Growth Management
Control Point of 6 units/ac.
b. Zoning: Planned Community (La Costa Master Plan-MP 149R)
c. The project is within the La Costa Master Plan development area SE-14.
2. The project requires the following permits:
a. Tentative Tract Map
b. Planned Development Permit
c. Variance (Please see discussion below)
d. A Hillside Development Permit will not be required, but the project will be subject to
the Hillside Design Guidelines.
3. Per the Planned Development Ordinance, the minimum lot size for One-family dwellings
on properties with a General Plan Land Use designation of Residential Medium (RM) is
5,000 square feet of lot area. The project proposes lot sizes less than 5,000 square feet
in area. Per the Planned Development ordinance, lot areas may be reduced to 3,500
square feet if the site is General Plan Land Use designated Residential Medium High

(RMH) and also meets one of the "unique circumstances" Identified in the code. The site
is not land use designated as RMH. However, the site does qualify as being unique as it
is adjacent to Rancho Santa Fe Road, a Circulation Element Roadway. As proposed,
the project density of 5.2 dulac Is below the Growth Management Control Point (6 dulac)
for the RM Land Use designation. If the project were to be redesigned to meet the 5,000
sq. ft. minimum lot area, the project density would likely fall below the 4 units per acre
minimum density for the RM land use designation. Additionally, the City Councils
directive that the project be developed as single family detached homes furthers the
inability to develop an alternative product type to meet the required Growth Management
Control Point. Given the above, staff is supportive of a variance to the lot area
requirements in order to develop the property within the range of the RM Growth
Management Control Point. The project should show the number of dwelling units if
developed with 5000 sq., ft. lots for analytical and comparative purposes.
4. Please provide a constraints analysis (density determination pursuant to 21.53.230 of
the Carlsbad Municipal Code) to clarify the net developable acreage of the site. The
numbers provided in the "General Notes" section of the plans do not provide enough
information.
5. Please correct the information in the "General Notes" section as follows: Zoning
(existing and proposed) is Planned Community (PC), General Plan (existing and
proposed) is Residential Medium (RM).
6. A noise study will be required to identify the need and to allow a noise wall within the 50
foot arterial landscape setback.
7. Be advised that future additions to homes may be precluded by the 50 foot arterial
roadway setback, including free standing structures and decks, balconies, and patio
covers.
8. The two drive-aisles shall be enhanced with decorative concrete.
9. Along Private Street "A", interior parallel parking spaces shall be a minimum of 24 feet
long. End spaces may be 20 feet long.
10. For Lot 9, consider widening the lot to allow for a wider driveway where it narrows and
provide a turnaround. Driveways over 40 feet in length qualify as providing one guest
parking space.
11. Please identify the required active recreation area (6,400 sq. ft.) and the amenities
provided. 75% (4,800 sq. ft.) of the recreational requirement must be active recreation.
12. Please review City Council Policy 44, Neighborhood Architectural Guidelines, as no
detailed plot plans or elevations were provided. Please design the product and
elevations to comply with this policy.
13. Please demarcate the required private recreational space (400 sq. ft. per unit with a
minimum dimension of 15 feet) for each loVunit in the formal submittal.
All necessary application forms, submittal requirements, and fee information are available at the
Planning counter located in the Faraday Building at 1635 Faraday Avenue or on line at

Zoning Ordinance online at the website address shown; select Department Listing; select
Planning Home Page. Please review ail information carefully before submitting.
Land Development Engineering:
1. Complete a Storm Water Standards Questionnaire, form E-34 (see attached). The form
is also available on the City of Carlsbad web-site at:
http://www.carlsbadca.gov/business/building/permittingprocess/pages/applicatlons_hand
outs.aspx
2. This project is a priority project. A preliminary Storm Water Management Plan (SWMP)
will be required. SWMP must include appropriate analysis and sizing calculations for
flow control and treatment control BMP facilities. The SWMP must demonstrate
compliance with latest City of Carlsbad Standard Urban Stormwater Management Pian
(SUSMP) for Treatment Control Best Management Practices (TCBMP), Low Impact
Development (LID) and Hydromodification Management Plan (HMP). Please refer to
Engineering Standard, Volume 4, Chapter 2 at: http://www.carlsbadca.gov/standards.
3. The preliminary hydromodification analysis prepared by Latitude 33 Planning and
Engineering shows that the proposed bioretention basins were sized using sizing factors
from the San Diego County Hydromodification Management Plan dated March 2011.
Note that this sizing method is not adequate and does not comply with the current
hydromodification sizing criteria. The sizing factors determine the required footprint sizes
of the bioretention areas but do not determine the required orifices sizes to comply with
the flow control requirements. A continuous simulation analysis of a series of storm
events from .1 Q2 to Q1 0 is required using any acceptable simulation software such as
SDHM. Alternatively, an integrated approach using the San Diego BMP sizing
calculator by Brown and Caldwell will satisfy ail requirements for TCBMP, HMP and LID
facilities. The BMP sizing calculator is available online at:
http:l/www.projectcleanwater.org.
4. It appears that that the bioretention areas provided are less than the required areas per
the calculations. Note that the bioretention surface area limit is determined by the extent
(area) of the engineered soil (planting mix) layer, which is governed by the outlet
spillway elevation (see attached bioretention facility detail). The areas provided may
need to be increased.
5. The proposed IMP 2 appears to be a linear bioswale. In order to function as a
bioretention, check dams may be needed to provide the required pending depth (V1 ).
6. Ensure that all proposed bioretention facilities have the capacity to handle the 100 year
storm event.
7. Obtain approval from the soils engineer for the use of bioretention basins at locations
shown on the preliminary BMP map. The preliminary soils report must include design
recommendations for the proposed bioretention basins. Ensure that the proposed
bioretention located on top of the slope at the south west corner of the property will not
compromise the slopes' stability.
8. Provide a preliminary cross-section detail for the proposed bioretention BMP shown on
the site plan. Show pending volume (V1 ), engineered soil layer for treatment, storage
layer (V2), underdrain, and outlet structure. Include a detail of the outlet structure and
show the locations of the required orifices (for hydromodification and 100-year storm
flows). The outlet structure must provide easy access to the orifices for proper
maintenance and prevent clogging. It is preferable to use the city standard bioretention

detail provided in the city SUSMP (see attached details).

9. The preliminary hydromodification analysis shows no IMP proposed for DMA 5. Although
the overall total IMP area provided is greater than the overall total area required, this
does not exempt DMA 5 from treatment and hydromodification requirements. All runoff
from each DMA requires treatment and flow control. Each DMA must be routed to an
IMP. An excess IMP area from one DMA cannot be used to mitigate another DMA that
does not drain to such IMP.
1 0. Show the locations of outlet structures for each proposed bioretention basins. Show
where the outflow pipes connect. Show the connection point to existing off-site storm
drain pipes or structures. Ensure that the there are no increases in flows (including 1 00
year storm event flows) at all discharge points.
11. Provide a preliminary hydrology study that determines the development discharge flows,
(water quality flows, hydromodification flows and 100 year storm event flows). Provide
preliminary recommendations on the anticipated storm drain facilities required as part of
the development.
12. Clearly differentiate between existing and proposed contours. Identify existing slopes per
the approved drawing number DWG 409-46. Show drainage arrows and % grade on all
proposed streets.
13. Add adequate spot elevations to show direction of drainage. Ensure that run-off drains
into the designated IMP per the DMA map. On sheet 2, typical lot drainage shows pads
draining into the streets. This typical drainage may not be applicable to some of the
proposed pads. Show how run-offs from the proposed streets and lots get routed to the
designated IMP (bioretention basins).
14. A Preliminary Title Report (PR) issued within 6 months of formal application submittal
will be required for the proposed project.
15. Label existing Paseo Lupine road easement; include document number and date of
recordation. Clearly label/identify that portion proposed to be vacated.
· 16. Indicate proposed ADT (traffic), EDU's (sewer), GPM (potable water), and GPM
(reclaimed water) for this project.
17. Meet with the Fire Department to identify the necessary fire protection measures
required for this project (access, fire hydrants, sprinkler systems, etc.) All proposed fire
hydrants must be served by public water mains.
18. Obtain approval from Leucadia Wastewater District for the proposed sewer system
shown on the site plan.
19. Obtain approval from Olivenhain Municipal Water District for the proposed water system
shown on the site plan.
20. This project will be conditioned to submit CC&Rs or other recorded document
addressing maintenance, repair and replacement of shared improvements such as
private roads, BMP facilities, etc.
21. This preliminary review does not constitute a complete review of the proposed project
and additional items of concern may be identified upon formal project application
submittal.

Fire Prevention:
1. Fire Access Road surface. The surface of all fire department access routes shall be of
an impervious "all-weather" surface material, designed to carry a minimum load of
75,000 pounds axel weight.
2. Fire Lanes. Private "Drive A" shall be designated as a FIRE LANE and become the
responsibility of the developer to have said access restrictions recorded, that the
owner/HOA is responsible to provide and maintain the enforcement of this designated
access.
3. An automatic fire sprinkler system is required for all dwelling units. Provide notes on all
plans submitted for review that indicate that fire sprinklers are required.
4. The Developer will be required to install a one inch ( 1 ") or greater water service and
water meter. This Is to ensure that there is adequate water provided in the event of a
fire sprinkler activation during periods of other uses and/or demands, e.g. irrigation.
