We have completed our review of the project and recommend approval under the attached
conditions. Following is the Engineering Project Report for your use in preparing the staff
report to the Planning Commission:
ENGINEERING ISSUES AND DISCUSSION:
TRAFFIC AND CIRCULATION
ADT1016
With the construction of two proposed offsite streets, Poinsettia Lane and Blackrail Road, the
project can meet the cul-de-sac standard and be adequately served. Poinsettia Lane is to be
constructed westerly to intersect with Alga Road. Blackrail Road is to be constructed southerly
to intersect with Alga Road at the Aviara Sales and Information Center.
Access to adjoining properties is being provided for their future circulation needs and possible
access alternatives to the project site.
IMPROVEMENTS
The parcel does not front on an existing public street. In order to meet cul-de-sac standard,
two streets will be needed to serve the project. The project proposes to have access from
Poinsettia Lane and Blackrail Road and make appropriate dedications for these streets. Both
streets are proposed to be constructed with 32 wide pavement sections offsite to connect to
the existing street system.
Interior streets are all public and will be constructed to City Standards.
SEWER AND WATER 104 EDU
The project proposes to sewer through offsite lines to be constructed for this project and
connect to the existing system that flows into the Batiquitos Lift Station. This proposal
involves a diversion of about 80 to 90 EDUs into the Batiquitos Lift Station. Water will be
provided by existing lines on the site. All design will need to meet CMWD requirements.
GRADING
CUT: 160,000 CUBIC YARDS; FILL: 160,000 CUBIC YARDS
The developer is proposing to record as many as three final maps and to grade the entire site
at one time. This proposal requires that grading plans be approved with the first final map.
H:\LIBRARY\ENC\WPDATA\DAVIS\OCNBFCON.RPT
The proposal is supported by engineering because it allows balanced grading on site which is
desirable given the site's isolation and long distance from locations of possible borrow or
stockpile sites.
The grading needed for the offsite portion of Blackrail Road is expected to balance. The
grading for the offsite portion of Poinsettia Lane is expected to have a need for approximately
36,600 cubic yards of import. The borrow site for the 36,600 cubic yards may require a
separate grading permit. One possible borrow site is Alga Road north from Poinsettia Lane.
DRAINAGE AND EROSION CONTROL
Standard methods of erosion control will be adequate for this development. No diversion of
drainage into any basin is proposed. The increase in drainage amounts is reasonable for
development and the project is in conformance with the Master Plan of Drainage as
conditioned.
A temporary siltation basin is located on Lot 1 and will be modified for a longer term use until
an offsite basin downstream is constructed. When the downstream basin is constructed or the
long term basin is no longer needed, Lot 1 can then be developed.
LAND TITLE
There are no land title issues.
