RE: Certification of the City of ’ Carlsbad Local Coastal Program A m
#I -03B (Habitat Management Plan)
Dear Mayor Lewis:
The California Coastal Commission has reviewed the City’s Resolution Nos. 2003-154 and
2003-155, together with the Commission’s action of June 12,2003 certifying City of
Carlsbad Local Coastal Program Amendment #1-03B pertaining to the City’s Habitat
Management Plan (HMP). In accordance with Section 13544 of the Commission’s Code of
Regulations, I have made the determination that the City’s actions are legally adequate, and
the Commission has concurred at its meeting of August 8,2003.
By its action on June 17,2003, the City has formally acknowledged and accepted the
Commission’s certification of the Local Coastal Program Amendment, including all suggested
modifications. The modifications addressed revised development limitations on specific
properties, included additional requirements for development of the preserve management
plan and an amendment to the Implementation Plan (P) of the certified LCP, revised wildlife
undercrossing requirements for Poinsettia Lane, and added policy language prohibiting the
use of invasive plants in landscaping. The City is already issuing coastal development
permits in conformance with the certified local coastal program for this area.
Ir, coficlusion, I would like to congrahlate you md all other elected or appointed officials,
staff and concerned citizens for continuing to work towards full implementation of the Coastal
Act. We remain available to assist you and your staff in any way possible as you continue to
develop and implement the City’s local coastal program.
Executive Director
