Project Title: PermitNo.: Applicant: Roosevelt Street Apartments RP 04-04 Wakeland Housing and Development Corp. Brief Description of Proposal: This is the project's third submittal. The subject property was purchased by the Carlsbad Redevelopment Agency with the purpose of constructing an affordable housing project. Wakeland Housing is assisting us in this effort and is processing the application for an 11-unit affordable apartment project. The site is currently vacant. Assigned staff member: Craig Ruiz Comments: {Please e-mail/send comments to Craig Ruiz in the Housing & Redevelopment Department.) p uiBKEinnp HOUSING AND DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION July 21, 2004 Mr. Craig Ruiz Carlsbad Housing and Redevelopment Department 2965 Roosevelt Street, Suite B Carlsbad, CA 92008-2389 Re: Roosevelt Gardens -Minor Redevelopment Permit # RP04-04 Dear Craig: Wakeland Housing and Development Corporation is hereby resubmitting revised architectural and engineering drawings in application for the above permit. All comments provided by City departments have been addressed in these drawings. Please let us know when the Design Review Board meeting is scheduled, as we need lead time to develop the additional materials 2 weeks prior to that date. We hope that we can obtain approvals from that body and the City Council within the next 60 days. Wakeland's design team would then immediately move to complete the design process and obtain its financing commitments. Depending on the City review of the final construction drawings, we believe we could begin construction sometime next spring. Please call me if you have any questions. Thank you.

The project still has issues that must be addressed. The following is a list of these issues: 1. Add striping and a "no parking" sign in the area for vehicular turn around. In addition, for vehicles backing out of parking stalls 20 and 21, extend the driveway back up area to the wail located at the property line. 2. The location of the sewer lateral is inconsistent between the site plan and grading plan. Please revise accordingly. Do not connect a 4 inch lateral to the access hole. 3. Add a separate water line and double detector check valve for the required sprinkler system. Locate the DDC Valve on private property but in a location accessible to the Fire Department. 4. City Standard GS-15 requires the drainage swale to be located a minimum 5 feet away from the building foundation. Along the southerly and easterly boundary, the proposed drainage swale is located closer than the standard permits. Either correct the design to comply or submit a letter/revised soils report from the soils engineer stating that a lesser distance is acceptable and provide specifications. 5. On the grading plan, correct the vertical scale on Section A and B. In addition, the retaining wall height and grade differential is difficult to determine on cross section A. Please provide elevations. Aiso, is the neighbor's wall as deep into the ground as indicated? 6. The text is difficult to read in some areas. Please revise per the redlined plan. Please forward the attached redlined plan the applicant and tell them to return it with their next submittal. If you or the applicant has any questions regarding the above, please either see or call me at extension 2781.

This resubmittal is in accord with comments made by city departments that were attached to your correspondence ofMareh 9. The materials we are submitting are as follows: 1. A copy of the city comments of March 9. 2. The redlined copies of the previously submitted hydrology and water quality technical reports. 3. The redlined copy of the previously submitted landscape plan. 4. Revised hydrology and water quality technical reports. 5. Five (5) copies of full size revised architectural (site plan, floor plans and elevations), engineering (grading plans) and landscape plans, as well as an aerial photograph of the site and the surrounding area. Please note that, at the request of the Carlsbad Engineering Department, we have attempted to contact neighbors to the rear ofthe property (2605 and 2615 Madison Street). The objective was to determine the preference of those property owners with respect to the drainage of the subject property. The property owners were asked whether they would prefer one of the following drainage altematives: 1) the subject property continues to drain over their property or 2) the subject be raised to accommodate a drainage flow toward Roosevelt Street. Telephonic messages and written correspondence were delivered to both residences. As of this date, we have not received a response from either property owner. Consequently, we have assumed that the property owners would prefer altemative #2 and have designed accordingly. Please call me if you have any questions.

B • Carlsbad, CA 92008-2389 • (760) 434-2810/2811 • FAX (760) 720-2037 ISSUES OF CONCERN Engineering Department staff has completed a review of the above-referenced project for completeness and engineering issues of concern. All items needed for engineering review are provided for determining the application as complete. Engineering issues which need to be resolved or adequately addressed prior to staff making a determination on the proposed project are as follows: 1. On the grading and site plan, indicate with a note that the existing driveways to be removed will be replaced with curb and gutter except where the proposed driveway is located. 2. Because the driveway aisle exceeds 150 feet in length, provide an area for vehicular turn around so that a vehicle can make a three point turn or better. In addition, include an additional 5 feet of driveway back up area for vehicles backing out of parking stalls 20 and 21. 3. Locate the sewer lateral and cleanout outside the driveway and indicate the diameter of the street main and proposed lateral. According to the site plan, a lateral already exists off the manhole. Can this lateral be used? Show this lateral on the grading plan. Also, indicate the size of the existing water lateral, meter and main. The line and meter may need to be upgraded. 4. Identify the location of the nearest fire hydrant. Also, if fire sprinklers are required, add a separate water line and double detector check valve for the sprinkler system. Locate the DDC Valve on private property but in a location accessible to the Fire Department. 5. Have you contacted abutting property owners about the feasibility of draining across their properties? Maintaining the drainage patterns similar to existing patterns should be explored as an alternative to raising the grade. 6. City Standard GS-15 requires the drainage swale to be located a minimum 5 feet away from the building foundation. The proposed drainage swale is located closer than the standard permits. Either correct the design to comply or submit a letter/revised soils report from the soils engineer stating that a lesser distance is acceptable and provide specifications. 7. On the grading plan, add a concrete pattern/symbol wherever concrete is proposed. 8. According to the soils report, remedial grading at depths between 1 and 5 feet will be required. Include the estimated amount of remedial grading in cubic yards on the grading plan. Also, identify the approximate location of the septic tank 9. Provide % grade at the street gutter. 10. On the site plan: a. Add the ADT to the site plan. 11 units X 6 ADT/unit = 66 ADT. b. Place the '8.00 ft.' between the leader arrows of the public sidewalk easement. c. Show the complete legend, as part of it did not copy. Correct the location of Roosevelt Street on the Vicinity map. It's currently shown where State Street is shown. 1. On the grading plan, show existing drainage patterns on the neighboring properties. Also, identify the height of the wall along the rear property line of the abutting property shown in cross section "A". 2. Construct the trash enclosure to City Standard GS-16.

Is it possible to modify the location of the building to eliminate the need for a variance? 3. Building No. 1 shows side yard set backs along the south property line of 4' - 5' and Building No. 2 shows set backs of 9'. The minimum set back is 10% of the lot width, or 10.9'. The reduced setback will require approval of a variance. Is it possible to modify the location to eliminate the need for a variance? 4. The project requires 24 parking spaces. Is it possible to utilize the westerly area of the site to provide additional parking spaces to eliminate the need for a variance or reduce the intensity of the variance being requested? 5. The northwest corner of the site has a significant landscape area. Is it possible to incorporate a monument sign and/or and entry feature/statement in this area?
