Just for your information....
The DRB approved the minor redevelopment permit for the Alvarez Flower Stand
last Wednesday (August 16, 1995). Mr. Silvino's attorney, Richard Macgurn,
indicated that ihe 300 sq.ft. patio/overhang will be removed in order to
comply with building codes. So, the stand will be reduced to the 120 square
foot building. Staff had recommended that if the building is reduced to 120
sq.ft that a 2 year limit be placed on the permit. Mr. Macgurn did not like
this and asked for DRB to grant a timeframe of 5 years or until the property
is sold. The DRB agreed with him and granted his request.

FROM: HOUSING AND REDEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT
SUBJECT: RP 94-04 - ALVAREZ FLOWER STAND - Request to approve a Minor
Redevelopment Permit to allow installation and operation of a flower stand at
2815 Jefferson Street.
I. STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the Design Review Board APPROVE Resolution No. 232 approving a
Minor Redevelopment Permit to allow a flower stand for a limited period of time at 2815
Jefferson Street in the Village Redevelopment Area.
n. PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND
The applicant, Mr. Silvino Alvarez, through his attomey Mr. Richard MacGum, submitted a
request for a minor redevelopment permit to allow the installation and operation of a flower
stand on the property located at 2815 Jefferson Stt-eet in the Village Redevelopment Area.
The application was submitted as the result of a violation notice for the presence of the
unpermitted flower stand. Staff has been working with the applicant and his attomey since
the date of the violation notice (12/27/93) to submit the documents necessary to request a
minor redevelopment permit to allow the continued use of the flower stand.
The flower stand represents a retail use within Subarea 1 of the Village Redevelopment Area.
Retail shops are permitted by right within Subarea 1 as long as they receive the appropriate
permits and licenses for operation purposes. The building strucmre proposed for the flower
stand includes the building (120 sq.ft) and a patio area with an overhang (300 sq.ft.); the
total building stmcture size is 420 square feet. Building permits are required for any building
stmcture over 120 square feet in size. A minor redevelopment permit is required to approve
the land use (retail) and the stmcture installed/constmcted on the site.
When the formal application for the subject project was received and deemed complete for
continued processing, staff indicated to the applicant and his attomey that the flower stand
use was not considered by the Carlsbad Redevelopment Agency to be the highest and best
use for the property and could not be supported by staff as a long term use for the property.
Additionally, staff expressed the opinion that the design of the flower stand structure was not
RP 94-04
August 16, 1995
Page 2
consistent with Village standards for a permanent stmcmre on the site. However, since the
property owner is currently in the process of trying to sell the subject property and it is
assumed that the flower stand continues to represent only a temporary use of the property,
staff outlined two options which could be supported for continued operation of the flower
stand on the subject site.
The two options are as follows:
1. If the applicant is able to obtain the required building permits for the building
stmcmre currently on the site at 420 square feet and makes the necessary
improvements to comply with the building code, staff will recommend a maximum
five (5) year period for operation of the flower stand. This recommendation
recognizes the fact that to bring the stmcture into compliance with the existing
building codes, the applicant will be required to complete substantial improvements to
the building stmcture which could be quite costly. Therefore, if the property owner
allows the applicant to operate the flower stand on the subject property for five (5)
years, the Redevelopment Agency is willing to allow the continued operation of the
flower stand for five (5) years as well.
2. If the applicant is not able to obtain the required building permits for the 420 square
foot building stmcture as proposed, the building stmcture size must be reduced to 120
square feet with no overhang stmcmre. Under this option, it is staffs opinion that the
period of permitted time for operation of the flower stand should be reduced to no
more than two (2) years. Since the applicant has already been allowed to operate for
over a year without the appropriate permits, staff originally indicated to the applicant
that only one (1) additional year of operation could be supported by staff. However,
after further consideration, staff feels that a two (2) year period of time can be
supported for continued operation of the flower stand with a building stmcmre which
does not exceed 120 square feet in size.
ffl. vn .T .AnE DESIGN MANUAL AND REDEVELOPMENT PLAN CONSISTENCY
As mentioned above, the proposed retail use is consistent with the Village Design Manual
and Redevelopment Plan for the Village Redevelopment Area. The proposed site for the
flower retail stand is located within Subarea 1 of the Village Redevelopment Area. The uses
allowed in this area are the same as those allowed within the C-1, C-2 and R-P zones as
indicated in the Carlsbad Municipal Code. The uses permitted by right include retail shops.
The property is located outside the Coastal Zone.
RP 94-04
August 16, 1995
Page 3
IV. GENERAL PLAN CONSISTENCY
The project is consistent with the goals and objectives of the various elements of the General
Plan. One of the goals of the City for the Village Redevelopment Area is to create a distinct
identity for the Village by encouraging activities that traditionally locate in a pedestrian-
oriented downtown area, including offices, restaurants and specialty retail shops such as
flower stands. Although staff does not believe that the proposed flower stand is the highest
and best use for the subject property on a long term or pennanent basis, the temporary use
(no longer than five years) of the site for the flower stand is consistent with the objective of
creating a sense of community within the Village and is an allowed use for the site.
The proposed project meets the goals and objectives of the Carlsbad General Plan, as
outlined for the Village Redevelopment Area.
V. PARKING ANALYSIS AND ZONING ORDINANCE COMPLIANCE
The flower stand has a total parking requirement of two (2) spaces. The applicant will be
able to provide for two (2) parking spaces on-site as required.
In addition to meeting the zoning standards for parking, the proposed project meets all other
standards outlined with the Zoning Ordinance.
VI. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The Planning Department has conducted an environmental review of the above described
project pursuant to the Guidelines for Implementation of the Califomia Environmental
Quality Act and the Environmental Protection Ordinance of the City of Carlsbad. As a result
of said review, the Planning Department has made a detennination that the flower stand
qualifies as an exempt project under Secdon 15303(c) of the CEQA regulations.
vn. CONCLUSION
As stated previously, staff does not believe that the proposed flower stand is the highest and
best use for the subject property on a long term basis. However, the flower stand does
provide for a use which is allowed in Subarea 1 of the Village Redevelopment Area.
Therefore, staff is able to support this project and recommends that the flower stand be
allowed with a limit on the maximum period of time for operation. Staff recommends that the
Design Review Board take action to approve the minor redevelopment permit related to this
project and subject to the conditions contained therein.

3 NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED, by the Design
^ Review Board as follows:
1. That the foregoing recitations are tme and correct.
2. That based on the evidence presented at the public meeting, the
7 Design Review Board hereby APPROVES Minor
Redevelopment Permit, RP 94-04, based on the following
® fmdings and subject to the following conditions:
FINDINGS: 9
10 ..
That the Planning Dkector has determined that the project is exempt
11 from the requirements of the Califomia Environmental Quality Act
(CEQA) per Section 15303 of the state CEQA Guidelmes and will not
have any adverse significant impact on the environment.
13
The Project qualifies as a Minor Redevelopment Permit under Chapter
14 21.35 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code because the project involves a
stmcmral change which costs less than $50,000.
15
.Jg 3. The project is consistent with the goals and objectives of the various
elements of the General Plan because it assists in the effort to create a
17 distinct identity for the Village Redevelopment Area by encouraging
activities that traditionally locate in a pedestrian-oriented downtown
18 area, including offices, restaurants and specialty retail shops.
19
4. The project is consistent with the City-wide Facilities and
20 Improvements Plan, the applicable local facilities management plan,
and all City public facility policies and ordinances since:
21
a) The project has been conditioned to ensure that, if sewer service
22 is required for the subject project, the necessary building
22 permits will not be issued, or building official approval shall not
be granted, for the flower stand project unless the District
24 Engineer determines that sewer service is available, and building
cannot occur within the project unless sewer service remains
25 available, and the District Engineer is satisfied that the
requirements of the Public Facilities Element of the General
Plan have been met insofar as they apply to sewer service for
2j this project.
28
DRB Resolution No. 232

3 required as a condition of approval.
5
9
This project has been conditioned to comply with any requirement
approved as part of the Local Facilities Management Plan for Zone 1.
^ c) The Developer has agreed and is required by the inclusion of an
appropriate condition to pay a public facilities fee. Performance
of that contract and payment of the fee will enable this body to
g fmd that public facilities will be available concurrent with need
as required by the General Plan.
7
5. The project has been conditioned to pay any increase in public facility
® fee, or new constmction tax, or development fees, and has agreed to
abide by any additional requirements established by the Local Facilities
Management Plan prepared pursuant to Chapter 21.90 of the Carlsbad
10 Municipal Code. This will ensure contmued availability of public
facilities.
11 "
12
13
The project is consistent with the Carlsbad Village Area Redevelopment
14 Plan and the Village Design Manual because it will continue to provide
for a temporary use which is an encouraged use and is permitted by
^5 right within Subarea 1 of the Village Redevelopment Project Area, if it
has received all applicable permits and licenses.
ID
17 8. The project is in accordance with the applicable provisions of the
Carlsbad Municipal Code as demonstrated by the processing of the
18 appropriate discretionary permits, maintenance of compatibility with
surrounding land uses, and the provision of adequate parking and
landscapmg.
20
The Design Review Board has reviewed each of the exactions imposed
21 on the Developer contained in this resolution, and hereby fmds, in this
case, that the exactions are imposed to mitigate impacts caused by or
22 * reasonably related to the project, and the extent and the degree of the

PROJECT DESCRIPTIQN/EXPLANATIQNI
PROJECT NAME: Alvarez Flower Stand
APPUCANTNAME: Silvino Alvarez
Please describe fully the proposed project. Include any details necessary to adequately
explain the scope arc/or operation of the proposed project. You may also include any
background information and supporting statements regarding the reasons for. or
appropriateness of, the application. Use an addendum sheet if necessary.
Description/Explanation.
The 2815 Jefferson Street site is a previously developed
residential site, now levelled and undeveloped, located one-half
block north of Grand Avenue and one block east of Madison within
the Carlsbad Redevelopment Area. The site has been listed for sale
with CB Commercial Realtors.
With the support of the owners and the realtor, the proposed
project provides an interim use for the lot while it lays vacant
prior to sale. Mr. Alvarez proposes to produce and sell flowers at
the site on a small scale. His presence will provide the community
with the aesthetic amenity of the site's gardens and with quality,
reasonably priced, locally produced cut flowers, while deterring
the vagrancy and vandalism commonly associated with vacant
property.
The proposed use is ideal for the Jefferson location. The
flower stand and gardens are oriented to pedestrian traffic, yet
are easily accessible to vehicular traffic. Ninety seven percent
of the project is devoted to open space, providing a "green belt"
in the developed neighborhood, and adding to the semi-rural feel
associated with the "Village" theme of Carlsbad's Redevelopment
Project.

of an existing 1287 s.f. office building from 660 Carlsbad Village Drive to 2963 Madison Street
(approximately 200 ft.).
Debbie Fountain, Senior Management Analyst, reviewed the background of the request and stated that the
applicant is requesting permits to relocate an existing 1.287 s.f. single story medical office buiiding from
Carlsbad Village Drive to a vacant parcel on Madison Street. The building use is proposed to remain the
same, with modifications to comply with applicable building code requirements related to handicap
accessibility. The applicant also proposes to remodel the exterior of the building. The project involves the
capping of the sewer and the removal of utilities at the site on Carlsbad Village Drive. The new site on
Madison Street will require site improvements which include parking, a trash dumpster/enclosure, sidewalk
with physically challenged ramp, and landscaping. An existing metal storage shed and tree will be
removed from the proposed site.

Ms. Fountain directed the Board's attention to staff memo dated July 19,1995 which contains numerous
errata revisions to the resolutions. Since there may be other errata changes needed, she requested that
the Board authorize staff to make other minor language revisions, as necessary, which would then be
approved by the City Attorney's office prior to execution.
Chairman Noble opened the public testimony and issued the invitation to speak.
Oakley Parker, 3215 Maezel Lane, Carlsbad, acknowledged his presence and offered to answer questions.
In response to an inquiry by Member Savary, Mr. Parker replied that he plans to use the cleared lot for
another project which is still in the planning stage. He also acknowledged that he would be using the
private alley to transport the building rather than the public thoroughfare.
John L. Jones. 3044 State Street, Carlsbad, addressed the Board and stated that he is familiar with the
medical building being relocated and, as part of the modifications, he would like to see restroom

placed.

public testimony closed and opened the item for discussion among the members.
