Per the California Environmental Protection Agency's website, 'While Government Code
Section 65962.5 [referred to as the Cortese List] makes reference to the preparation of a "list,"
many changes have occurred related to web-based information access since [the amended
statute's effective date in] 1992 and this information is now largely available on the Internet sites
of the responsible organizations. Those requesting a copy of the Cortese "list" are now referred
directly to the appropriate information resources contained on the Internet web sites of the
boards or departments that are referenced in the statute."

Plan Review Recommendations
Carlsbad Police Department's Crime Prevention Unit has provided the following optimal security
recommendations. The purpose of this document is to safeguard property and public welfare by regulating and
reviewing the design, construction, quality of materials, use and occupancy, location, and maintenance of all
buildings and structures. The standards used in this document represent model international standards.
Crime Prevention through Environmental Design
The proper design and effective use of the built environment can lead to a reduction in the fear and incidence of
crime and an improvement in the quality of life. The proper design influences this by positively affecting human
behavior. The design includes the physical environment, the planned behavior of people, the productive use of
space and an effective crime/loss prevention program.
Natural Surveillance
1) Place and design physical features to maximize visibility. This will include building orientation, windows,.
entrances, walkways, landscape trees and shrubs, fences and any other physical obstruction.
2) Design the placement of persons, common areas or activities to maximize surveillance possibilities.
3) Design lighting that provides for appropriate nighttime illumination of walkways, entrances and driveways.
Natural Access Control
1) Use walkways, pavement, lighting and landscaping to clearly guide guests to and from selected entrances.
2) Use real or symbolic barriers like fences or landscaping to prevent and or discourage access to or from dark
and or unmonitored areas.
Provisions for territorial reinforcement
1) Use pavement treatments, landscaping and fences to define and outline ownership or property. Show clean
transformation between public and private space.
Lighting
1) Illuminate all vehicular drive surfaces with a minimum maintained 1 foot-candle of light at ground level during
the hours of darkness.
2) Illuminate all exterior common area pedestrian walkways and recreation areas with a minimum maintained
0.25 foot-candle of light at ground level during the hours of darkness.
3) Illuminate cluster mailboxes and trash enclosures located on the exterior with a minimum maintained 1 foot-
candle of light, measured within a five-foot radius at ground level, during the hours of darkness.
~ ~ 2560 Orion Way, Carlsbad, CA 92010-7240 T 760-931-2100 F 760-931-8473
4) Illuminate recessed areas of building or fences, which have a minimum depth of two feet, a minimum height of
five feet, and do not exceed 6 feet in width and are capable of human concealment with a minimum
maintained 0.25 foot-candles of light at ground level during the hours of darkness. This requirement applies to
defined recessed areas that are within 6 feet of the edge of designated walking surface with an unobstructed
pathway to it, not hindered by walls or hedgerow landscaping a minimum of two feet in height.
5) Protect accessible luminaries with vandal resistant light fixtures when they are not less than three feet in
height from the walking surface when used to illuminate walkways and a minimum of 78 inches in height

ISSUES OF CONCERN
1. Architectural relief and features should be designed into all sides of the building. Please
enhance the blank walls on the second and third floors of the side elevations.
Landscape:
1. The landscape maintenance exhibit indicates that landscape areas will be maintained by an HOA.
Civil plans currently appear to provide for 4 water meters (1 for each of 4 units). Please coordinate
with civil to provide a 5th water meter for the HOA landscape areas. Provide a copy of revised civil
plans clearly showing a water meter for the HOA maintained landscape areas.
2. Please provide landscaping along the north, south and west sides of the building to both soften and
enhance these elevations. Please also provide taller plantings on both sides of the unit 1 front
windows to help soften this elevation. The taller plantings along the east elevation should be either
trees or palms with appropriate height to soften the elevation.
3. Correct the scientific name of the proposed palm. California Fan Palm is Washingtonia filifera. Is
this supposed to be a Washingtonia or some kind of Phoenix? See comments 4 and 5 below.
4. Washingtonia filifera is not listed as an approved tree in Chapter 6 of the Carlsbad Community
Forest Management Plan. If this is to be the designated street tree it will need to be selected from
the approved tree replacement list. Please address. Palms included in the list are Archontophoenix
cunninghamiana, Syagrus romanzoffianum, Brahea armata and Brahea edulis.
5. RETURN REDLINES and provide 2 copies of all plans (concept, water conservation, fire protection,
and colored water use plan) on the next submittal.
