SUBJECT: BUILDING PERMIT FOR HUSQVARNA TRAINING CENTER
Revised building plans have been submitted for the Husqvarna Train- ing Center at the Carlsbad Raceway and they would like us to issue a permit as soon as possible. In reviewing the CUP file, I find the following problems:
1) The one-year time limit to begin construction has expired. Some initial work, without permits, was begun for the original proposed site near the entrance of the Raceway. The County Health Depart- ment then required that the location be moved in order to properly connect the new sewer into the existing facilities. This, plus the fact that the original building plans (for a metal building) were completely revised, (now a standard frame building), created the delay that caused the CUP to expire. A lot of work was completed that was required as part of the conditions. However, no permits have been issued to date.

UESTION: Does the work done to date (i.e., relocation of power
commencement of construction of the structure or facility? If it does, we can proceed with the review of their plans. If not, they will have to reapply and go through the whole process again. Is there something to be gained by this alternative?
+TK- fencing replacement, landscaping, painting, etc.) constitute
RECOMMENDATION: I recommend that we do considerrthe work done to date as beginning construction because it was done as a requirement of the CUP and I don't think the City has anything to gain by re- quiring a reapplication.
(2) The proposed structure has been relocated from it's approved location. Because of the aforementioned requirements of the County Health Department, the original location had to be abandoned.
QUESTION: The conditions of the CUP give the Planning Director the right to approve minor changes. Is this a minor change?
RECOMMENDATION: Sometimes, location of a particular facility is very critical. However, in this case I think it should be considered

If you and the rest of Staff agree with my recommendations, the applicant would only have to comply with two additional conditions prior to the issuance of building permits:
(1) Installation of a fire hydrant;
(2) Future agreement for a traffic signal.
I would like to discuss this matter at the August 7, 1974 Staff meeting and have us reach some conclusion.
