The following numbered responses correspond to the numbered planning and engineering comments: PLANNING 1. You indicated that SANDAG will be responding to you with an approval letter. 2. We have determined that the mini-park on lot 17 is within 1,000 feet of this 0 project, thus satisfying the requirement for outdoor eating areas. We will continue to show the hardscape areas on-site, but they will not be labeled as outdoor eating areas. 3. We have deleted the proposed future subdivision line from the drawings, and this PIP application will no longer make reference to the subdivision. The minor subdivsion and non-residential Planned Development Permit application may be submitted independent of this application. The building@) will be designed with code-compliant zero lot line wall construction, opening protection, parapets, etc. 4. We have added "Planned Industrial Permit PIP 97-06" to the site plan; indicated the landscaping %; indicated all setbacks and indicated parking stall & drive aisle dimensions and truck turning radii. On the floor plans we have indicated the locations and square footages of each proposed use and the at-grade loading doors. 5. On the site plan and grading plan, the perimeter retaining walls(and finish grades) have been revised so they do not exceed six feet high. 5355 Mira Sorrento Place Suite 650 San Diego, California 92121 (619) 452-3188 Fax (619) 452-3907 Carlsbad Airport Center Lot 41 911 1 197 6. The parking area adjacent to Camino Vida Roble has been revised so it does 7. We have revised the south and east building elevations to properly indicate the not encroach into the setback. finish grade at those locations, so that the building height may be assessed correctly. 8. We have shown the trash enclosure elevation on the site plan sheet. 9. We have included roof plans which show the proposed locations of future mechanical equipment and roof screens. The equipment will be screened from view from the existing buildings on the east, south and west of the site. On the site plan, we have shown the buildings on lot 40 (east) and lot 6 (south), whose second floor occupants have sight lines to the roof screens. Buildings on lots 18 and I9 are a minimum of fifteen feet lower than lot 41 , so the roof screens are effective, by inspection. The line of sight cross section on the site plan sheet justifies our roof screen design for the line of sight from lot 40, which is the "worst case" line of sight to lot 41. The equipment will not be visible from any street (especially Camino Vida Roble) because their elevations will not permit a sight line elevation that exceeds the top of the roof screens. IO. On the site plan, we have shown a future monument sign on the planted slope at the street corner. The dimensions and location within the setback comply with city and Carlsbad Airport Centre design guidelines. The sign is shown for information and entitlement purposes only. ENGINEERING 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. The driveway at Palomar Oaks Way has been revised to show the requested tangent alignment from the property line. We have shown the driveway at lot 18 across Palomar Oaks Way from lot 41. No other driveways occur across the streets from this site. The driveway at Camino Vida Roble is skewed less than ten degrees from being perpendicular to the street. The grading plan now shows the vertical curves and contours at both driveways. The entrances are shown as standard driveways instead of alley aprons. The grading plan now shows the &foot triangular sight view corridors at each side of the driveways. Caltrans sight distances have been met by this design. The site plan has been revised to show a five foot back-up area behind parking spaces at ends I corners of rows. The site plan has been revised to show at-grade loading door locations that can be serviced by medium size trucks with a 42 foot turning radius. Parking areas at the rear of the building have been reconfigured to accommodate side- loading. The grading plan shows a 15-foot drainage easement along the north site boundary. This is the only existing easement per the preliminary title report. J Carlsbad Airport Center Lot 41 911 1 I97 9. The grading plan has been revised to show minimum 1% surface slopes at IO. The grading plan has been revised to delete the ribbon gutters at the center of 11. The revised grading plan includes a detail of a catch basin with a single stage, paved areas. the driveways. Surface drainage occurs at a 1% minimum gradient. rail section fossil filter. The loading area catch basins will also be equipped with fossil filters.
