FINAL DECISION LETTER OF TENTATIVE PARCEL MAP REVISION
Project ID: MS 04-08(A)
Project Name: LA COSTA TOWN SQUARE
APN: 223-060-31, 32: 223-050-68. 70
The city engineer has completed a review of the application for a revised tentative parcel map, MS 04-
08(A), generally located at Rancho Santa Fe Road and La Costa Avenue. The city engineer has made a
determination pursuant to the Carlsbad Municipal Code 20.24.080 to approve the tentative parcel map
revision based on the findings and subject to the revised conditions listed below.
Whereas:
a. A request was submitted to revise the conditions of approval reflected in the Final Approval of
Tentative Parcel Map for MS 04-08 dated June 3, 2010; and
b. Condition 10 of the June 3, 2010 approval requires the recording of a prepayment agreement
and payment of a fee for the construction of Rancho Santa Fe Road, to the satisfaction of the
City Attorney and City Engineer, and
c. Similar conditions requiring a prepayment agreement for Rancho Santa Fe Road are contained in
the resolutions of approval for the La Costa Town Square development (CT 01-09, condition 27
of PC Reso 6581; CT 08-03, condition 30 of PC Reso 6582; CT 08-07, condition 29 of PC Reso
6583), and
d. Resolution 93-262 approved by City Council on September 14,1993, establishing the form ofthe
prepayment agreement, sets the EDU allocation for determination ofthe fee, and notes that the
number of each type of unit, and the allocation for non-residential units, shall be made by the
City Engineer, and
e. Said Resolution notes that "The City Engineer is not required to make a determination on the
number of EDUs for any project until adequate information is available", and
f. Condition 1 of the June 3, 2010 approval clearly states that "No development is proposed or
approved based upon this subdivision".
Therefore the city engineer has determined:
a. The previous findings in the Final Approval of Tentative Parcel Map dated June 2, 2010 are still
valid, and

b. The appropriate EDU allocation for the prepayment agreement cannot be determined because
no development is proposed by the minor subdivision, and
c. The discretionary approvals that will allow the EDU allocation to be determined are conditioned
to require the prepayment agreement, rendering the prepayment agreement condition on MS
04-08 redundant, so
d. The subject tentative parcel map revision has been approved per the findings and conditions set
forth in said Preliminary Decision letter subject to the following:
Condition #10 is deleted:
10. Prior to approval of the parcel mapi Dovolopor shall cause Property Owner to exocuto and
