TO COMPLETE THE APPLICATION
No. CT 98-12 - MAGNOLIA GARDENS
Planning:
1. A site development plan application and the associated fee are required pursuant to
Section 21.53.120 of the Zoning Ordinance to demonstrate compliance with the
affordable housing requirements of the City of Carlsbad. Section 21.85.090 of the
Zoning Ordinance requires that 15 percent of units shall be affordable to lower
income households.
2. The application fee for the environmental impact assessment is required to be
submitted prior to the application being deemed complete.
3. Include on the tentative map the distance between the proposed cul-de-sac street
and Valley Street.
4. Show how future access will be provided to the property to the north via the
proposed street.
5. Please label the existing 10 foot contour intervals on the western area of the site.
6. Provide a preliminary landscape plan for proposed slopes and street trees as required
by Section IV.E.3-1.2.1 of the Landscape Manual of the City Of Carlsbad.

ISSUES OF CONCERN
Planning:
1. Please add the project application numbers to the plans.
2. Access for the property to the north must be provided from the proposed cul-de-sac.
Possible options for providing access may be to extend the cul-de-sac bulb further
to the north or to reverse the location of the panhandle for proposed lots 9, 10, and
11 thereby setting up the potential for a private driveway.
3. The project must satisfy the city's inclusionary housing requirements. No project
can be recommended for approval unless it satisfies these requirements. You may
want to refer to CT 97-23, CT 97-24, and CT 96-08 to see projects of a similar size
in this general area and how they satisfied the inclusionary housing requirement.
4. Clarify whether the strip of land west of the proposed Street "A" just north of
Magnolia Avenue is proposed to be part of Lot 1.
5. Please revise the plan so that the panhandle length for Lot 11 does not exceed the
200 foot maximum.
6. Several setbacks plotted on the tentative map exceed the required maximum and
should be revised as noted on the enclosed redlined checkprint.
7. Revisions to the notes on sheet 1 of the tentative map must be revised as noted on
the enclosed redlined checkprint.
8. Minor revisions noted on the enclosed redlined checkprint of the Constraints Map
must be made prior to submitting revised plans for the project.
9. Please return the enclosed redlined checkprint with your revised plans to assist city
staff in processing your project.
Engineering:
Traffic and Circulation:
1. Street A and Valley Street will be required to be dedicated and constructed to
engineering standards to include paving, curbs and gutters, sidewalks and street
lights.
2. Due to the need to provide public access to the lot adjacent to the northerly
boundary of the proposed subdivision, Street A must be extended northerly. The
configuration of the cul-de-sac bulb can be modified to reduce the impact of lots 8
and 9
3. Provide handicap ramps at the curb returns at the intersection of Street A and
Magnolia Avenue.
Sewer and Water:
1. Both sewer and water facilities will be required to be extended to service future
development of the parcel along the northern boundary of the proposed subdivision.
Drainage:
Based on the proposed grading and topography of the parcel along the northern boundary
of the subdivision, an inlet will be required to drain that parcel.
The inlet at the intersection of Street A and Magnolia Avenue will need to be relocated.
Miscellaneous:
1. Attached is a red-lined check print of the proposed project for the applicants use in
making the requested revisions. This check print must be returned with the project
revisions to facilitate continued staff review.
