PIP 95-06 - CARLSBAD CORPORATE CENTRE Planning: 1. Please add application type and number, PIP 95-06, to Site Plan. 2. Please indicate on Site Plan/Landscape Plan/Floor Plans the proposed improvements and amenities to be located in the interior/exterior employee eating areas (i.e., benches, tables, trash cans etc.). 3. Please include an exhibit on the Site Plan which cleady shows the specific dimensions (length and width) and design(s) of the standard and compact parking stalls Be sure to include wheel stops and/or cur&ing if proposed. 4. Please include a scale on the building elevation exhibit. 6. Please identify on Site Plan/Building Elevation exhibits the proposed location of signs and exterior lights 7. In that this project is proposing to develop slop greater than 15% in grade with an elevation differential greater than 15 feet (see Planning Isuc #l), a Hillside Development Permit application shall be required to be submitted Engineering: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. The current Preliminary Title Report (PR) indicates that the current owner of the property is the Sumitomo Bank of California. 'Ihe PR das not indicate that Four-Sher Development has any interest in this property. Therefore, the application must be signed by a representative from sumitom0 Bank. Please add Planned Industrial Permit (PIP) 9546 to the cover &et of the Site Development Ran (SDP). Please label all facilities as existing or proposed (e.g., add the existing curb, gutter and sidewalks to the site plan and pr~limi~ry Grading Plan, add "existing public sheet" to the street typical sections m the site plan.) Add the Owens Street typical section to the site plan. As was indicated at our April 26, 1995 meeting with the applicant, all easements must be identified on the site plan in accordance with Schedule 'B" of the PR 'zhe future disposition of the easements must also be indicated on the site plan. PIP 95-06 - CARLSBAD CORPORATE CENTRE May 30, 1995 Page 3 ISSUES OF CONCERN Planning: 1. Section 2 1.53.230 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code specifies that slopes with an inclination of 40% or more are undevelopable. This development prohibition applies to manufactured slopes (cut or fill slopes) as well as natural slopes of 40% or greater gradient Recently (February 1,1995), the Carlsbad Planning Commission made the determination that development of manufactured slopes of 40% or greater gradient could be permitted provided that the extent of slope encroachment be limited to a maximum of 6 vertical feet as measured from the pad elevation at the toe of the subject slope. nEc Planning Department is currently drafting a policy to reflect this Planning Commission determination. The proposal of this project to encroach more than 6 vertical feet into the existing manufactured slopes located along the north, east and west sides of the property clearly does not comply with this Planning Commission determination and future policy. In order to em compliance, all project retaining walls shall be required to be reduced to a maximum height of 6 feet The revised ate plan addressing this issue (lowering of retaining walls), which was submitkd to the City on May 22, 1995, is not an acceptable solution. As discussed in our preliminary review hue letter for this project (PRE 95-08), dated April 19, 1995, proposed outdoor lunch areas should be located to provide a snsc of privacy and high amenity and buffered from parking. The proposed 600 squarc foot lunch area, located in the northeast comer of the parking lot in proximity to the loading docks and the 720 square foot lunch area, located in the northwest comer of the parking lot do not satisfy the above-noted outdoor lunch area locational criteria. Pleas revise the site plan to consolidate these two small outdoor lunch areas and locate to achieve required locational objectives 2. Please revise the PROJECT DATA sections of the project cover sheet and Site Plan as follows: EXISTING LAND USE PI LAND USE ZONE PM PARKING REQUIRED: Office - 110 spaces Manufacturing - 93 Spaces Warehow - 61 Spaces TOTAL: 264 Spacer 3. Please increase the width of the interior landscape planter islands to a minimum d 6 feet 4. Compact parking spaces are required to have a minimum dimension of 8' x 15' with no overhang permitted Please revise the compact parking spaces on the site plan to comply with these dimension requirements 5. Please revise ate plan to delete landscape planting area encroachment into parking spaces which are located along the north and east sides of the parking lot. \I/ PIP 95-06 - CARLSBAD CORPORATE CENTRE May 30,1995 me 4 6. Please identify the specific location of the site to be used for the disposal of the 35,000 cubic yards of export material from the project site. Ah, please identify the proposed haul route. 7. In order to enhance the appearance of the project along Camin0 Vi& Roble, staff strongly recommends that project driveways be texture paved. Engineering: Traffic and. Tramrtation 1. As previously indicated, the proposed loading bay located at the northeast comer of the building must be able to function utilizing semi-trailer turning radii. A California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) 407C turning template with a 50 foot tuming radius will be required as a minimum; a Caltrans 407D with a 60 foot turning radius is, however, preferred Using a standard Caltrans 65 foot semi-trailer length, neither the 407C not 407D turning templates function at this proposed loading bay. Therefore. this desim must be revised or this loading bay must be deleM. One option for making this loading bay functional is to incnase the width and depth approximately 5 feet and 25 feet nspectively, and, deleting approximately two parking spaces along the rear wall of the building, directly adjacent to the loading bay. Field Conditions 1. Please indicate the location of any monument signs on the ate plan. Please be advised that adequate sight distance must be obtained at the public stnet intersections and facility private driveways (If no monument signs are proposed, please indicate this to staff.) 1. Please provide staff with a copy of PR Schedule 2" item No. 8 (Certificate of Compliance.) 2. Add the redesigned location of the northwesteriy lunch area to all applicable plans. 1. As was indicated at our April 26, 1995 meeting with the applicant, a design for the pro& drainage inlet grease traps must be shown At the meeting the applicant indicated that they do have a design for this system. Please show a typical grease trap design section m the preliminary (and ultimately the final) grading plans
