TO: DESIGN REVIEW BOARD
FROM: HOUSING AND REDEVELOPMENT/PU\NNING/ENGINEERING
SUBJECT: RP 88-2x2 - LANDRETH - SECOND EXTENSION OF PERMIT
I. RECOMMENDATION
That the Design Review Board ADOPT Design Review Board Resolution No. 165
recommending approval of the one year extension request for RP 88-2x2 to the Housing
and Redevelopment Commission based on the findings and subject to the conditions
contained therein.
Analvsis
Staff has received a request for an extension of a Major Redevelopment Permit - RP 88-2.
The project site is located at 715-725 Arbuckle Place. If approved, the project's new
expiration date will be November 15, 1991.
The Design Review Board initially recommended approval of this project at the October
19. 1988 meeting. Final project approval took place on November 15, 1988 by the
Housing and Redevelopment Commission (HRC).
A request for extension was granted by the HRC on December 19, 1989 following the
Design Review Board's recommendation of December 6, 1989. This extension moved
the expiration date of approval to November 15, 1990 For RP 88-2x1.
Planning, Engineering and Housing and Redevelopment staff have reviewed the current
extension request. Staff recommends approval of the extension request subject to the
recommendation of adoption of Design Review Board Resolution No. 165 which contains
modified conditions of approval. Resolution No. 165 would supersede the project's
previous approval resolution (Resolution No. 118) and would be valid until November 15,
1991, if adopted by the Housing Redevelopment Council.
REDEVELOPMENT ANALYSIS
Redevelopment Department supports the extension of RP 88-2x2 Landreth for an office
building at 715-725 Arbuckle Place. Based on the proposed 4,800 square feet, the
project will generate approximately 14 jobs. While none of the uses will generate sales
tax, the people employed will likely spend time and money In the Village area which will
result in some sales tax increase.

The current assessed value is $218,482. Adding the construction cost of $400,000 will
result in a new assessed value of $618,482. This will result in an increase in tax increment
to the Redevelopment Agency of $6,185 the first year.

Re: 715 & 725 Arbuckle Place
Redevelopment Approval #T-22
Dear Ms. Graham,
I am writing today to request city consideration
to extend the referenced redevelopment permit.
Original approval was granted in 1988 and
extended in 1989. At the time of the 1989 extension I
stated that I had met with numerous utility and civil
engineering revisions. Currently those items are being
resolved. However, due to the current stringent funding
guidelines, I am finding it difficult to arrange the
financing necessary to proceed with the final drawings.
I look forward to an expedient resolution to the
above mentioned issue, and am anxious to proceed with my
long anticipated move to the village area.
Once again, I greatly appreciate the time and
effort the redevelopment staff has put forth on my behalf
Please contact me should you have any questions.
Respectfully,
Richard S. Landreth

RE: NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING RP 88-2
As a citizen and resident of the core of Carlsbad, I would like
to respectfully express my strong objection to the construction
of any additional office buildings with adjacent parking lots
within the redevelopment Village area. I would respectfully
request that you veto any and all such project proposals. I am
in favor of upscale residential construction and would hope that
you could withhold permitting until some developer should decide
to build residential housing. I have no specific objection to
the Landreth, except that it is an office building. Thank you
for your considerations.

Dear Rich:
On April 12, 1988 your application (RP 88-2) was complete for processing. State
law requires a complete application such as yours to be brought to public hearing
within six months; or by October 12, 1988. Since April, working together, we
have resolved all but one critical issue with respect to the project. That
remaining issue is drainage. We need to have your response to the drainage issue
by August 29th, 1988.
If we can't appropriately resolve the drainage issue by that time, staff would
have to recommend denial of the project. This would be unfortunate given our
ability to successfully resolve all other issues. Please let me know as soon
as possible before August 29th as to your decision.

Dear Mr. Wickham:
As we have previously discussed, the Transmission Department of
the Southern California Gas Company operates and maintains a 12
inch high pressure natural gas line within the construction
limits of the proposed Carlsbad Inn Tennis Facility in the AT&SF
Railroad Right-of-Way between Oak Street and Pine Street in the
City of Carlsbad.
Due to the development unreasonably interfering with the free and
complete exercise of our rights to operate and maintain the
pipeline, we object to the construction of the Carlsbad Inn Tennis
Facility unless the following operational conditions are met with
regard to the protection of our pipeline:
1. Complete and free access must be maintained 10 feet on
either side of the 12 inch high pressure natural gas
line for maintenance and operation.
2. No permanent structures within the 20 foot strip, i.e.,
buildings, block walls, concrete pad, fences, etc.
3. No planting of trees or deep rooted plants without
prior written approval of Southern California Gas
Company.
4. No change of grade without prior written approval of
Southern California Gas Company. Grade clearance to
provide a minimum of 36 inches and a maximum of 7 feet
over our high pressure natural gas pipeline.
5. Minimum of 12 inch clearance from any substructure and
crossing of our pipeline.
SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA GAS COMPANY
Attached is a copy of the grading plan for the proposed Carlsbad
Inn Tennis Facility with our pipeline plotted.
Please call me on (714) 496-5712 if there are any questions and
advise me of the Public Hearing Date in order to attend.

RE: Project RP 88-2 (Landreth)
Dear Mr. Schulte:
North County Transit District staff has reviewed project RP 88-2
(Landreth) and has the following comments concerning the project:
1. Although the project site is not adjacent to existing routes,
the site is well served by NCTD. The site is served by two
routes, Route 321 and Route 322, which have existing stops
less than 1/4 mile from the site.
Route 321; This route has an existing sheltered stop near
the intersection of Arbuckle Place and Jefferson
Street. Route 321 transfers with Routes 301 and
322 at the intersection of Grand Avenue and Washington
Street and Routes 302, 309, 312, 316, 320, 322
and 800 at Plaza Camino Real.
Route 322; This route has a stop near the intersection of
Roosevelt Street and Beech Avenue. This route
makes all the same transfers/connections as Route
321.
2. NCTD is not planning to change any of the above mentioned
routes during the next five (5) fiscal years.

completeness for processing.
The subject application is complete, as submitted. Although the
initial processing of your application may have already begun,
the technical acceptance date is acknowledged by the date of this
communication.
The Planning Director and the City Engineer have also reviewed
the application you submitted. Based upon this review, it has
been determined that there are major issues associated with your
application which must be addressed before this application can
be scheduled for a Design Review Board hearing. The problems or
issues are listed below. Once the issues have been addressed,
your application will then be scheduled for a hearing.
Please contact Lance Schulte, at (619) 438-1161 to set up a

LIST OF ISSUES/PROBLEMS:
PLANNING:
1. The attached Local Facilities Impacts assessment form needs
to be filled out. This is a new requirement that was not
available when you submitted your application.
2. The lack of clarity in the site plan makes review difficult.
A 1" = 10' Site Plan with about one half as many numbered
notes would be easier to read. Many notes can be directly
labeled on the site plan.
3. Show N-S-E-W orientation and complete lower floor outline on
floor plans.
4. Trash pick-up must load onsite, not in the public right-of-
way.
5. A roofing plan is needed. Is the roof hipped?
6. A preliminary signage plan is needed.
7. Compliance with the 20% of net site landscaping requirement
is not clearly shown. Please provide a clear indication of
compliance with the Design Manual requirement.
8. Handicap access is inadequate. Please redesign and show how
a handicapped person would get from the parking stall to the
office building.
9. Bike storage facilities should be provided in the "dead
space" on the first floor plan.
10. The design of the entry deck is of concern.
11. The lack of windows in some sections of the building is of
concern.
12. The architecture presents inappropriately rigid walls to
surrounding land uses. This incompatibility to surrounding
land uses is of concern.
13. No indication of building height is provided. Please dimen-
sion all elevations and floor plans.
14. Some aspects of the proposed landscaping are of concern.
It appears additional landscaping is needed. Particularly,
since mature trees will be eliminated by the project, and
the office is next to residential uses.
Page 2
15. Evidence of how use of the office space will be restricted
to not allow medical and financial tenants needs to be
provided.
16. Has the possibility of reciprocal access with the property
owner to the east been explored?

17. The attached Engineering comments are enclosed for your
review.

RE: Landreth Professional Office Center
Major Redevelopment Permit Application
Traffic Analysis
The proposed building is a small (5100 SF) professional
office building for non-medical and non-financial uses. Based
on SANDAG standards, the building will generate 102 trip ends
per day. Those numbers are based on 20 trips per day per
1000 square feet of building area.
Based on traffic flow volume figures available from the City
of Carlsbad records, the impact on Jefferson Street which will
be the major street most affected, should be approximately 2.6%
increase to the northbound flow and 1% increase to the southbound
flow.
The percentage of increase to the flow on Arbuckle will be quite
high, but even at it's maximum potential, 102 trips, does not
represent a significant traffic flow in terms of number of trips.
In addition, the street frontage on both Arbuckle and Madison
will be developed as required to match adjacent properties, one
of which, on Arbuckle east of the proposed building, is quite
new.
The ends of Madison Street, at Grand and at Laguna support
traffic from the Old World Center, the Post Office and the
Jazzercise Center. Although we do not have specific numbers
to back up the discussion, it appears obvious that impact of
the new building will not be significant enough to require
a change in the proposed design of the street or to generate the
need for traffic control systems.
Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call.
Sincerely,
