PLANNING:
1. Based on the proposed design, approximately 6,239 square feet of eating area is required
for the project, At minimum, 60 percent of this area must be outside. Based on our
review of the project less than 3,700 square feet of eating area is provided (eating areas
cannot be located within any of the required setback areas). Please note proposed eating
area amenities on the site plan.
2. Please indicate grading volumes including cut, fill, import and export on the plans.
3. We reviewed the color renderings prepared for this project during the preliminary review
process. Please submit the colored elevation plans for this review.
4. The parking calculations for this project are not shown on the plans, only the total
required of 190 parking spaces. Based on our review, the required parking for this
project is 165 spaces. The requirement for office is 1250 square feet of gross office
space and the parking requirement for warehouse is 1: lo00 square feet of gross floor area,
plus one space per vehicle stored on the site. If vehicles are to be stored on the site,
please indicate this on the plans. Note that if trucks or any kind of equipment is proposed
to be stored outside, the vehicle/equipment storage must be screened by a 6 foot
decorative masonry wall.
5. Additional planters are needed in the parking areas. Please provide approximately one
of the larger tree planters for every ten parking spaces provided.
6. The Carlsbad Airport Centre Specific Plan (SP 181(A)) prohibits parking overhang within
the rear landscape setback area on the project. Please revise plans to eliminate the
parking overhang within the rear landscape setback area.
ENGINEERING:
1. The plans should indicate the grading quantities proposed for this project, including the
number of cubic yards of cut, fill, import, and export.
2. The parking lot should be designed to drain with a minimum of 1 % slope, as opposed to
the 0.5% slope currently shown on the preliminary grading plan.
3. Overall, drainage of the site should be designed to catch the low flow in the earthen swale
for pollutant mitigation purposes, as well as accommodate those periods of high runoff
without eroding or eradicating the swale. For low flows, we suggest providing additional
openings along the length of the curb to drain to the earthen swale. To help protect the
swale during high flows, we recommend that roof drains not be connected to the below
grade PVC pipe located at the rear of the building. We also recommend the top of berm
of the earthen swale have a minimum width of 12" to prevent failure during periods of
heavy runoff.

The grading plan indicates that the northwest portion of the parking lot will drain directly
to the street. To comply with surface pollutant mitigation requirements, it appears that
the runoff from a majority of this parking lot area could be directed to the landscape area
along the western edge of the project site before entering the storm drain.
The location of the water meter is shown within the driveway apron. Please check with
the Carlsbad Municipal Water District to determine if relocation of this water meter will
be required.
Please indicate on the plan the calculation used for determining the Average Daily Traffic
(ADT) of 3 18 trips.
Please remove the notes on the typical street section, as red-lined on the checkprint.
