You may either make a brief presentation prior to the staff meeting to discuss your project with your staff planner and engineer or after the receipt of a response letter from the City to discuss the staff comments. If you indicate this on the application form you will be contacted to set up a meeting time.

The proposed hotel will have outdoor amenity space including an exterior patio, pool, and spa. Food and beverage options will be limited with a breakfast service, small plates, and lobby bar. The hotel brands being considered are environmentally conscious and focused on healthy alternatives. The architecture of the hotel and office building will be consistent with other office and hospitality product in the immediate area. The maximum height of the hotel is proposed to be 45 feet and three stories. Attached are samples of the type of architecture proposed. The applicant is also proposing a 5,000 square foot medical office pad to accommodate a +/-10,000 square foot structure. The parking required for both uses would be provided utilizing a shared parking area with the required number of spaces calculated at peak demand. The hotel peak demand occurs during the hours of 5pm to 8am and the office peak demand occurs between the hours of 9am and 4pm. A total of approximately 165 parking space will be provided at a 1.1 space per hotel room ratio for the peak hotel demand. A detailed parking analysis will be provided at the time of a formal submittal to the city. Site circulation is a key aspect of the preliminary site plan and requires a right in, right out connection from Aviara Parkway as a secondary access to meet fire department access requirements. The primary access to the site would be from Laurel Tree Lane. Careful consideration was taken in siting the structures to comply with the FAR regulations of the Palomar Airport overlay zones. The calculations are depicted on the preliminary site plan. These FAR restrictions along with the SDG&E easement limit the options for placing the building and associated parking on the site. The existing trail connection on the south side of the site will be preserved and enhanced and the riparian buffer of 50 feet maintained. A 60-foot setback will be maintained off Palomar Airport Road and a 40-foot setback will be maintained off Aviara Parkway. In summary, the applicant believes the proposed hotel and office area are complimentary to the surrounding uses and the overall development within the immediate area. We like to opportunity to meet with either you or a staff member to answer questions and provide additional background prior to the preparation of a comment letter. Please feel free to contact me at your earliest convenience.
