LIST OF ITEMS NEEDED
TO COMPLETE APPLICATION:
PLANNING AND ENGINEERING
1. Ten copies of the site plan with following additional information:
a) street address;
b) cross section of Loker Avenue;
c) typical parking stall dimensions for standard and compact spaces;
d) truck turning radii to demonstrate that a 60 foot turning radius can be
accommodated (Cal Trans HWY Design Manual, Fig 407D).
2. Two copies of the landscape plan containing a water conservation plan.
3. Two copies of a clearer preliminary grading plan.
ISSUES OF CONCERN
PLANNING
1. The Carlsbad Airport Business Center Specific Plan requires an average set back of
35 feet. This set back must be entirely landscaped. Because the building and
parking stalls encroach into the 35 foot set back, landscaping equal in area to such
encroachment must be added beyond the 35 foot set back line to satisfy the
requirement for an average landscaped setback. Additional landscaped areas do
extend beyond the set back line, but the area of such landscaping (excluding areas
with slopes) and the area of building/parking encroachment needs to be calculated
to demonstrate that the project complies with the standard.
2. The location of the grade high loading bay fronting Loker Avenue must be either
relocated or redesigned. Because of its high visibility from Loker Avenue, it must
be entirely screened from public view. In addition, trucks stationed at the bay would
block between one to three parking spaces, which is unacceptable. Possible solutions
include:
0 removing the dock entirely;
e relocating the dock to the south or east facing wall; or
0 adding a truck screening wall in front of the bay’s currently proposed location.
Such a wall would need to extend from the bay’s existing exterior wall and
run parallel with building face. At a minimum, the wall would need to be 30
feet long, 12 feet high and harmonious with the building’s facade. Such a
design would also require reconfiguration of the adjacent parking.
3. The minimum side yard interior set back is ten feet. This set back must be entirely
landscaped and irrigated. The proposed eight foot side yard set back along the
southern boundary line is therefore inadequate.
4. The refuse bin enclosure does not comply with City standards. Please review
enclosed specifications for the two different enclosure designs available.
ENGINEERING
1. The easterly driveway does not meet sight distance standards. We recommend that
the project include removal of existing landscaping so that the required 200 foot sight
distance can be provided. This landscaping may be replaced with new landscaping
limited to 30 inches in height.
2. The landscape plan does not appear to be consistent with providing the proposed
grassy swale that is shown on the grading plan.
3. Please provide a detail of the filter type catch basin that is identified on the grading
plan.
