PROPOSED LCP AMENDMENT SUMMARY
CARLSBAD RANCH/LEGOLAND SPECIFIC PLAN AMENDMENT (LCPA 90-OS(B)
The proposal includes amendments to the text of the Agua Hedionda and Mello I1 Segments of the
Local Coastal Program as well as amendments to the Mello I1 Land Use Plan Map. Also proposed
are amendments to the implementation plan which consist of zone changes as well as text
amendments to the Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan and the Coastal Agricultural Overlay Zone.
The amendment to the Agua Hedionda Segment includes a revision to Policy 2-2 (Agriculture) to
permit a 24.2 acre area adjacent to and north of Cannon Road to be utilized as part of a proposed
golf course and allowing for it to be zoned as Open Space (0-S) rather than Exclusive Agriculture
(E-A). In addition a zone change from Public Utility (P-U) to Open Space (OS) is proposed on this
24.2 acre area.
Proposed amendments to the Mello I1 Segment include revisions to Policy 2-1 (Conservation of
Agricultural Lands) to: (1) Apply Policy 2-1 to the area of the Carlsbad Ranch within the agricultural
preserve with the exception of the approximately 53.42 acres to be retained for agricultural use and
(2) Provide that any acreage under the control of a public entity for use as public recreation or open
space will be exempt from Policy 2-1. Also proposed are amendments to Policy 2-2 (Carlsbad Ranch
Specific Plan "Mixed-Use" Development) to: (1) Provide that development of land within the
agricultural preserve will be subject to approval of a Local Coastal Program Amendment, Specific
Plan Amendment and compliance with Policy 2-1 and (2) Reducing the structure setback from 50
feet to a minimum of 25 feet from the adjacent agricultural area. The amendments to the
implementation plan consist of revisions to the Coastal Agricultural Overlay to apply the overlay to
the Carlsbad Ranch property within the agricultural preserve with the exception of the approximately
53.42 acres which are to be retained for agricultural use.
Also proposed are amendments to the Mello I1 Land Use Plan Map to revise land use designations
as shown on the accompanying map. Zone Changes to achieve consistency with the proposed Land
Use Plan designations are proposed.
The Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan which is the implementation plan for this area of the Mello I1
Segment of the LCP is proposed to be revised to accommodate the land use changes.
