Please describe fully the proposed project. Include any details necessary to adequately explain the scope and/or operation of the proposed project. You may also include any background information and supporting statements regarding the reasons for, or appropriateness of, the application. Use an addendum sheet if necessary. Description/Explanation. The proposed project involves an amendment to an approved subdivision. The approved subdivision proposed and was approved for 129 single family lots, and PUD permits for 220 multi family units. As a result of modifications to the approved plan by the California Coastal Commission, it. is necessary to process modified plans (amendments) to the approved permits. Modifications in the single family area of the project (Areas B and C), involve a realignment of Cherry Blossom Road to avoid a native finger canyon. This canyon is now under protection of a Coastal deed restriction. Cherry Blossom Road is realigned southerly at this point to avoid the canyon. Single family lots in the vicinity of Cherry Blossom Road are realigned. Nine additional single family lots are proposed as a result of the redesign. Area A was approved for multi-family housing for apartment and condominium development. A specific site design was approved. The proposed project proposes superpad grading (mass grading) for the site. No specific site design is proposed at this time. Area D was also approved for condominium development. The present proposal also anticipates mass grading for Area D, with specific site design to be processed through the City and Coastal Commission in the future. The Community Facility site is proposed for relocation to the northern portion of Area D, and has been re-named Area E. The overall residential unit count for the proposed project is reduced from 349 units to a maximum of 312 units, eliminating the density-bonus situation. Additional project and process information is provided in the cover letter provided with this application. P.v. 4/91 ProjD.sc.frm November 28, 1995 Mr. Jeff Gibson City of Carlsbad Planning -Department 2075 Las Palmas Dr. Carlsbad, CA 92009 RECE I VED 1995 • i rc (•;j -'y RE: Permit Amendments: CT 92-02/PUD 92-02/SDP 92-09/HDP 92-03 (SAMBI) Dear Jeff: Enclosed with this letter are application, with supporting documentation and fees, for amendments to the above-referenced permits. This application is an outgrowth of your letter of July 27, 1995, in which Sambi is directed to amend the City permits in response to the Coastal Commission modification of the Cherry Blossom Road alignment. As you know, the project is presently under construction, in compliance with the Substantial Conformance Exhibit approved by the City and Coastal Commission. It has been understood by all involved that the Substantial Conformance Exhibit does not present the ultimate preferred design for portions of the project. To this end, Sambi has prepared this application package to respond to the desired modifications. The tentative subdivision map, planned development permit, site development plan permit and hillside development permit are proposed for modification generally as follows: a. Cherry Blossom Roa'd is realigned to avoid the north-westerly finger canyon as directed by the Coastal Commission. In order to maintain proper traffic flow on this collector roadway, its alignment easterly to Alga Road is also affected. Single family lots in this area ard redesigned. b. The Community Facility site is relocated to the northern portion of Area D, and has been re-named Area E. This is a move that results directly from the Cherry Blossom Road realignment. Its area is increased in size. The Area D multi-family site is significantly reduced in size. c. Area A is slightly reduced in size to deal with Coastal Commission dictates for preservation of the north-easterly open space preserve. Affordable 2111 PALOMAR AIRPORT ROAD • SUITE 100 • CARLSBAD, CA 92009 • (619) 931-0780 • FAX (619) 931-5744 7425 SUNNYSIDE ROAD • COEUR dALENE, ID 83814 • (208) 667-3969 • FAX (208) 667-9495 housing will continue to be planned for this area, in conjunction with market-rate multi-family housing. d. Single family lot counts on Areas B and C are increased from 129 lots to 138 lots. This is a result of increased efficiency of loading directly onto Cherry Blossom and the relocation of the Community Facility site onto Site D. e. The overall residential unit count for the project is reduced from 349 units to a maximum of 312 units, thus eliminating the density-bonus situation, and reducing the affordable housing requirement. f. Sambi understands that an approved PD permit encumbers the entire parcel. In light of the fact that the exact number and product of affordable units to be constructed will not be decided until negotiations with the City and a non-profit builder are complete, detailed site planning for Area A will not be completed for some time. Similarly, uncertainty in the market makes it premature for Sambi to prepare detailed site plans for Areas D and E. As a result, it is Sambi's desire to delay detailed site plan review of Areas A, D,and E to subsequent, separate individual TM, PD and SDP applications. This proposal is an amendment to existing entitlement permits. For areas in which the ultimate proposed design are now known (Areas B and C), that design is demonstrated on the TM/PD map. In areas where the ultimate design cannot be known at this time (Areas A, D and B), elimination through this amendment of any approved non-conforming design is anticipated, resulting in mass-graded pad status, until subsequent entitlements are processed and approved. Section 21 .45.040 (Planned Developments) allows the phasing of planned developments. Sambi is requesting phasing of the project through this two-step site plan approval process. This process allows the imminent completion of all required infrastructure, including Alga Road and Hidden Valley Road. It further avoids the necessity of preparing artificial "placeholder" plans in order to provide notice of land use for the affected multi-family parcels. This two-step approval process will not preclude and will continue to be subject to compliance with all required findings of Section 21 .45.072 and of designated "receptor sites" per the Zone 20 Specific Plan. Multi-family housing on Areas A and D, at densities significantly higher than are now anticipated, have been approved by the City through the original vesting tentative map and PD permit. Sambi simply proposes removal of these approved site plans, and replacement with a designation of future planning areas, subject to a maximum holding capacity in compliance with the LFMP Growth Management buildout assumptions for the overall site. Sambi further proposes delay of site plan approval (and ultimate dwelling unit count, not to exceed the counts stipulated on the plan)until these site plans can be prepared. PLANMNG I- In no case shall development of the site exceed the overall growth control point for the total parcel (68 acres). This two-step entitlement program is not unusual nor prejudicial. Master plans throughout the City utilize this program. Any residential project with on-site requirement to provide affordable housing will likely utilize uch a program, due to the length of time necessary to finalize financing packages for such projects, particularly when tax credit financing is involved. The subject site is covered by both a Planned Development permit and the Zone 20 Specific Plan, both of which allow density transfer within certain guidelines. We anticipate that the Sambi proposal is in compliance with these regulatory documents. Since grading of the site is -proceeding at this time, it is our desire to process the subject amendments as expediently as possible. We believe it is most practical for both Sambi and the City to complete a revised subdivision process as soon as possible. Mandating the complete redesign of the entire site (Areas A and D) at this time will cause undue delay, and most likely result in approval of plans which will need to be further modified in the future. We are also including new information regarding the scope and appraised value of historical on-site agricultural use of the subject property, in response to state law governing determination of the Agricultural Mitigation Fee. We anticipate that this information will result in a modification of the previous fee amount. Please contact us immediately if any additional information relative to the applications for permit amendments is needed. We are available at any time to discuss the applications.
