SUBJECT: CUP 205(A)x3 - CRAZY BURRO
An annual review was conducted on January 9, 2004 for Conditional Use Permit No. CUP
205(A)x3 - Crazy Burro, as required by Condition No. 3 of Planning Commission Resolution
No. 4920 (copy attached). During that annual review it was noted that seating area in the form
of tables and chairs was located on the patio. This seating is not part of the original approval
and is therefore in violation of the Conditional Use Permit.
Please remove this seating to remain in conformance with the scope of development approved
through the Conditional Use Permit. Should you desire to explore the addition of this seating
area to the approved development, the processing of an Incidental Outdoor Dining Area Permit
would be necessary. Attached are the Zoning regulations and application materials pertaining
to the Incidental Outdoor Dining Area Permit. Please be advised that any outdoor dining area
approved through this permit process must be consistent with all applicable regulations,
including the C-1 - Neighborhood Commercial Zone.
Should you require additional information or wish to have a meeting to discuss this issue,
please feel free to contact me at (760) 602-4623. Thank you for your cooperation in this
matter.

Dear Counclmembers,
This Is a request to modify or eliminate condition #9, CUP No. 2O5 (A)x1.

The concern as we understood in "\2>8><o was parking, this has never developed as

The restaurant operates with a limited number of dining tables as we had to
remove 1C1 tables to accommodate the dance floor.
In light of these moves we are requesting permission to utilize our patio for
evening use, weather permitting.
In the past 15 years our patio has been used for many positive functions, from
LCYO sponsor appreciation parties, small weddings, charitable fund raising
events to Carlsbad Chamber events I.e.: Sundowners and more.
We would like to work in a manner that compliments not only our city but also

MEMORANDUM
DATE: MAY 20, 1987
TO: PLANNING COMMISSION
FROM: PLANNING DEPARTMENT
SUB3ECT: INFORMATION ITEM - CUP-205(A) - CRAZY BURRO - Request
for approval of a change of use from patio area to
restaurant seating area at an existing restaurant on the
east side of El Camino Real between Alga Road and Dove
Lane in the C-1-Q zone.
The applicant is requesting that occasional restaurant seating be
allowed on an open patio area, located at the west side of the
Crazy Burro restaurant. A slight redesign of the inner courtyard
is proposed in addition to a vine-covered trellis. According to
the applicant, the courtyard would accommodate approximately four
tables.
In October, 1986, the applicant requested approval of a
conditional use permit to allow dancing in the patio area. The
request was denied due to the lack of additional parking for the
increased square footage. The applicant realizes the parking
concern at the shopping center and has addressed this issue in
his proposal. He does not intend to expand the total dining area
square footage but to close off an equal number of tables indoors
when the tables outdoors are being used. The applicant has
agreed to a number of conditions to ensure that no additional
traffic would be generated by the opening of the patio area.
These include:
1) At any time that the patio area is open for use as an
eating area for the general public, an equal amount of
seating area within the interior of the restaurant shall
be closed off. It is understood that the City may
revoke its approval of the patio eating area if this
condition is not met. The intent of this condition is
to ensure that no additional traffic will be generated
by the opening of the patio area.
2) The Crazy Burro may occasionally have private parties in
the patio area during nonbusiness hours (eg. wedding
reception, etc.). Any music for these activities that
is generated from the patio area must cease by 5:00
P.M.
3) The Planning Department reserves the right to monitor
the use of the patio area and may require review by the
Planning Commission at any time if any problems arise
resulting from this use.
Staff feels that this can be handled as an information item since
the applicant has agreed to these measures.
It is staff's opinion that the outdoor patio would be an
attractive addition to the restaurant as well as providing
patrons with a pleasant place for outdoor dining. The conditions
agreed to by the applicant will ensure that the eating area will
not be expanded. If the applicant does not comply with the
measures that he agreed to, the Planning Director may bring the
CUP forward to the Planning Commission under condition number
eight of the existing CUP, shown below. Staff, therefore,
recommends approval of this request based on the proposed
conditions.
Condition
This conditional use permit is granted for a period of two
years. This conditional use permit shall be reviewed by the
Planning Director on a yearly basis to determine if all
conditions of this permit have been met and that the use does
not have a significant detrimental impact on surrounding
properties or the public health and welfare. If the Planning
Director determines that the use has such significant adverse
impacts, the Planning Director shall recommend that the
Planning Commission, after providing the permittee the
opportunity to be heard, add additional conditions to
mitigate the significant adverse impacts. this permit may be
revoked at any time after a public hearing, if it is found
that the use has a significant detrimental affect on
surrounding land uses and the public's health and welfare, or
the conditions imposed herein have not been met. This permit
may be extended for a reasonable period of time not to exceed
tow years upon written application of the permittee made not
less than 90 days prior to the expiration date. In granting
such extension, the Planning Commission shall find that no
substantial adverse affect on surrounding land uses or the
public's health and welfare will result because of the
continuation of the permitted use. If a substantial adverse
affect on surrounding land uses or the public's health and
welfare is found, the extension shall be considered as an
original application for conditional use permit. There is no
limit to the number of extensions the Planning Commission may
grant.

Dear Mike and Dee:
Once again, thank you very much for your time and consideration.
My request for permission to utilize our patio is being submitted
because there is a need for an open air restaurant, both as an
appreciated option and hopefully to curb a declining business
trend in the La Costa area.
Since 1985 there has been aggressive restaurant development in
all our neighboring cities, including Carlsbad proper. The
result has been a downtrend in gross sales from 8-15 percent.
The reasons are obvious, the "restaurant rows" in Cardiff,
Encinitas, San Marcos, Oceanside, Oceanside Harbor and downtown
Carlsbad have not only made it difficult to lure people from, but
also very difficult to keep the La Costa locals at home.
Our hope is that it will be possible to trade off indoor space
for outdoor space making us a little more attractive and
competitive during those days when the weather is beautiful.
Realistically the evening weather is consistently, nice from July
to October with close to twice as many warm, sunny days during
the whole year.
It is not our intention to expand our dining area square footage
so on those "patio days" we would merely assign that waiter or
waitress to the outside and close up the -inside section.
Recognizing your concern as to whether or not;' the section is
closed, I can only tell you that I wouldn't do anything to
jeopardize this often asked for customer elective.
The subtle trellis work would be used to support a series of
fully grown rose bushes with other assorted flowers to add
atmosphere to the courtyard and provide some relief from the sun.
The addition of the entry wall would guarantee the integrity of
the patio by limiting its uses.

fully grown rose bushes with other assorted flowers to add
atmosphere to the courtyard and provide some relief from the sun.
The addition of the entry wall would guarantee the integrity of
the patio by limiting its uses.

With a "courtyard" of this design we would be able to offer an
affordable area for wedding receptions or semi-private breakfast,
lunch meetings. Any of these functions, would most likely be
over by 5:00 PM at the latest. This same area would most
assuredly make our Sunday Brunch more enjoyable for our patrons.
To ensure that the use does not become objectionable and that no
further traffic is generated, I have attached a letter agreeing
to mitigating conditions as we discussed at our meeting.
The Crazy Burro, La Costa, is my sole business concern and as a
six year La Costa resident I can tell you that the people in this
area of Carlsbad would greatly appreciate the opportunity to dine
outside on some of these spectacular days. It is my sincerest
wish that the Crazy Burro can provide this luxury for them.
Thank you,

SUBJECT: Letter of Understanding for the addition of a
patio area at the Crazy Burro restaurant.
This letter sets forth the understanding of the Crazy Burro
restaurant regarding its proposed addition of seating area
in the patio section of the restaurant. Seating area in
the patio is administratively approved by the Planning
Department subject to the following conditions:
1. At any time that the patio area is open for use as
an eating area for the general public, an equal
amount of seating area within the interior of the
restaurant shall be closed off. It is understood
that the city may revoke its approval of the patio
eating area if this condition is not met. The
intent of this condition is to ensure that no
additional traffic will be generated by the opening
of the patio area.
2. The Crazy Burro may occasionally have private
parties in the patio area during nonbusiness hours
(eg. wedding reception, etc.). Any music for these
activities that is generated from the patio area
must cease by 5:00 P.M.
3. The Planning Department reserves the right to
monitor the use of the patio area and may require
review by the Planning Commission at any time if any
problems arise resulting from this use.
I hereby agree to abide by the following conditions as
described /hereii

to permit a dance floor at the
Crazy Burro Restaurant.
I oppose issuance of this conditional use permit amend-
ment to permit a dance floor at the Crazy Burro Restaurant.
My opposition is based upon the following eonsidations.
1. There is a shortage of parking needed to accommodate the
crowds likely to be attracted by dances at this location.
This opinion is based upon experience resulting from special
events held there in the recent past. On several occasions
cars have filled the parking areas provided at the mall in
which the Crazy Burro is located. As a consequence there
has been an overflow of cars onto the private street within
Ffts«o de La Costa, the condominium in which I live just north
of Dove Lane on El Camino Real. Not only have private and
guest parking spaces been violated and access to garages been
blocked but access by fire equipment has been jeopardized on
several occasions.
No potential increase in activity should be encouraged
until such time as the Crazy Burro can guarantee adequate
parking.
2. The areas immediately to the north and to the south
of the mall in which the Crazy Burro is located are resi-
dential. Increased littering, traffic, and potentially un-
ruly crowds are likely to adversely affect living conditions
and property values.

RE: CUP-205(A) CRAZY BURRO
On December 23, 1985 a letter was sent to your office regarding
the above-mentioned project. This letter listed a number of
problems which had to be resolved prior to scheduling the project
before the Planning Commission. One of these items included the
fact that plans which were submitted were not for the Carlsbad
site but one in Huntington Beach. This information is not
sufficient for our purposes.
As you are aware, the above-listed project has been in the review
process for some time and yet nothing has been done to provide
the required information. In addition, the City is subject to
certain time constraints by State law for the processing of
applications. If new plans have not been submitted to our office
by April 7, then I will assume you do not wish to continue
processing your application and will schedule the project, with a
recommendation of denial, for the Planning Commission meeting on
May 14, 1986.
If you wish to withdraw your application, you will need to submit
a letter to this department with a request for a refund. If you
have any further questions you may contact me at 438-5591.
