According to the information enclosed with your reply (see Engineering, item No. 2) we have been approved for a total of eight (8) parking spaces and asked to eliminate space # 1 and space #6 (see Engineering, Item No. 3.) Space #1 was eliminated because it was in the front yard setback area. (Housing and Redevelopment, Item No. 1.) Subsequently, we have moved space #1 up so that it is completely out of the front setback area. By eliminating the trash bin area at the northwest comer, there is ample room for five (5) parallel parking spaces as shown on the attached plan and a buffer zone of two (2) feet. As per your request, we have eliminated space #6 to accommodate a dumpster. As you can see from the plan, we have placed the trash bin area in space # 6 at a distance of seven (7) feet from the building as there is an existing eight foot door into the building as shown on the attached plan. The trash bin area is according to the size and location of the new bin area for the recently completed Carlsbad Animal Hospital, the plans for which I recently picked up from your office. Our thanks and appreciation for the help and information received in this process from your office and from Mr. Clyde Wickham at City of Carlsbad Engineering. It is our request that we be approved for the nine (9) parking spaces as per the attached plan. Please feel free to call us with any questions you may have at (760) 720-4887.

The flow of traffic will be one- way from State Street through the property to the alley. There will be no changes to the existing building or site. The building has been in existence in its present form since 1975. We will not be removing and replacing any asphalt or concrete currently in existence. The only change we foresee in the near future is removal of the chain link fencing and, subsequent to approval, stripping for the parking plan. At this property there is a 50% availability of "in lieu of spaces according to Housing and Redevelopment's Craig Ruiz. We are looking at the possibility of using this program in the fiiture. We hope this will clarify our request. Our apologies for having confused the issue in our previous request of Febmary 24, 2004. Hopefully this will be the first step toward establishing a higher and better use for this property in the future. Please feel free to call us with any questions you may have at (760) 720-4887.

On the preliminary grading plan, provide additional spot elevations or topography at least 25-feet outside the property line. This information should clearly demonstrate existing drainage patterns. 7. This project qualifies as a "priority" project pursuant to new regulations issued by the Regional Water Quality Control Board. Please clarify how this project minimizes impervious area and maximizes infiltration to the maximum extend practical for storm run-off. One suggestion may be for the water discharged from the parking lot to flow over a grass or landscaped swale along the side of the structure to allow for some infiltration before being discharged to City right-of-way. 8. The legal description for this project is not clear. Please submit a title report to validate the ownership and easement information of the proposed development. 9. Revise the site plan to list the correct ADT (traffic), EDU (sewer), and GPD (water) required or generated by this project. 10. Parking space #1 is located within the City Right of way (move back, clear of State Street R/W. 11. Revise the site plan and preliminary grading plan to incorporate stalls at least 10-feet wide when located next to solid walls (parking space 11). This is required so vehicles may open their doors. 12. 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. A redlined check print is enclosed for the applicants use in making the requested revisions. This check print must be returned with the plan revisions to facilitate continued staff review.

If you have any questions regarding the Engineering Department's comments, please call Clyde Wickham at 602-2742. Building: Based on the submitted documentation, the Building Department had the following comments: 1. Change of use to retail and a dwelling unit will require a building permit after acquisition of a Redevelopment Permit. 2. Parking for retail has to provide a van accessible parking stall. This should be the closest stall and provide an 8 foot loading / unloading zone and a path of travel to the main entrance to the retail component. 3. The residential unit has to have an occupancy separation between the retail and residence (fire resistive assembly). The entrance/exit from the residence cannot terminate inside the retail store. 2001 CAUFORNIA BUILDING CODE FIGURE 11B-18B FIGUnE 11B-18C WHEEL STOP 70 SO.

Carlsbad, CA 92008 February 25, 2004 Housing & Redevelopment 2965 Roosevelt St. Carlsbad, CA 92008 Att: Lori Rosenstein Dear Ms. Rosenstein, Attached please find parking proposal for use of property located at 2659 State Street, Carlsbad, CA. We are requesting the following usage for the building: (1) 1500 sq. feet of retail (2) Approximately 930.3 sq. feet of habitation one or two bedrooms (second floor only) (3) Approximately 3933.4 sq. feet of wholesale/warehouse area We currently are using this building as warehousing and wholesale of antiques and would like to upgrade the function of this property thus creating higher and better usage. If this is viable, future plans to remodel the building with a more pleasing facade than the current outdated look are anticipated. An upscale facade change will create better eye appeal and furter enhance the Village atmosphere on North State Street. We feel this will better suit not only our needs as as a long time local business entity, but serves to create additional retail availability and stimulate business activity on North State Street which will happily result in increased revenue and sales tax. With this positive change the results will include a richer, more esthetically appealing climate for the whole community and benefit all who visit, live, work and shop in our Village area. We are also confident that this will increase foot traffic in the Village area. Page 1 2659 State ST February 24, 2004 City of Carlsbad Housing and Redevelopment Page 2 We have based the plan for this property on the Housing and Redevelopment view of the future for north State Street and feel that we are within the guidelines of Housing and Redevelopment for this change. Having maintained a successful business in the Village for the past 22 years, we hope to continue the beneficial relationship with Housing and Redevlopment and the City of Carlsbad as well as the com munity while also creating additional opportunity for another business or businesses at this si te. Please feel free to call us at (760) 720-4887 with any questions. Sincerely, Thomas & Lucinda Vigne Page 2
