ENVIRQNMENTAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT FORM - PART I
This Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Form - Part I will be used to
determine what type of environmental documentation (i.e. Environmental Impact
Report, Mitigated Negative Declaration, Negative Declaration or Exemption) will
be required to be prepared for your application, per the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA) and Title 19 of Carlsbad's Municipal Code. The clarity and
accuracy of the information you provide is critical for purposes of quickly
determining the specific environmental effects of your project.
Recent judicial decisions have held that a "naked checklist", that is a checklist
that is merely checked "yes" or "no", is insufficient to comply with the
requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act. Each "yes" or "no"
answer must be accompanied by a written explanation justifying the "yes" or "no"
answer. This is especially important when a Negative Declaration is being
sought. The more information provided in this form, the easier and quicker it
will be for staff to complete the Environmental Impact Assessment Form - Part
II.

ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT
LAND USE REVIEW
December 29,1999
TO: Lorl Rosenstein - Redevelopment Department
FROM: David Rick - Engineering Department
ISSUES REVIEW, SECOND CHECK
PROJECT ID: RP 99-13 EDWARDS FINANCIAL
The Engineering Department has completed its review of the above referenced project for
compliance with the previously determined issues. The project still has issues which must be
addressed. The following is a list of these issues:
1. Either the scale appears to be slightly inaccurate or the dimensions given are wrong. Some of
examples of these inaccuracies are as follows: The lot is correctly dimensioned at 52.78 feet
wide but the scale indicates that it is 49 feet wide. The front yard set back is dimensioned at
22'6". The scale indicates that the building set back is 20 feet.
2. Is the 6 foot high chain link fence located along the north side of the property on your property
or the neighbors? Provide a symbol such as "™x—x—x—" to show where the fence is
located. Also, show the 3 foot high wood fence which encloses the side yard.
3. On the site plan:
a) provide a north arrow;
b) show the location of any trees or shrubs;
c) provide the grading quantities (the grading is listed without quantities);
d) show the neighbor's facilities within 20 feet of the property.
4. Indicate the dimension of the existing driveway approach. Show that this approach will be
replaced with a new approach 12 feet wide. Add a note stating that the remaining portion of
the approach will be replaced with curb, gutter and sidewalk. The portion of the driveway on
private property is 8 feet wide based on a field measurement (the scale indicates that it is 6.5
feet wide). Add a note to the site plan indicating that the existing driveway will be removed
and replaced with a new 8 foot wide concrete driveway (widen the driveway to 12 feet if space
permits) since the existing driveway is in poor condition.
5. The proposed driveway at the rear of the lot is 17 feet wide according to the scale. The
minimum width permissible is 24 feet. One suggestion would be to reduce the landscaping
widths at each or both ends of the property to provide the required driveway width.

6. Is the trash area enclosed by a fence or wall? What does the dashed line represent? Also,
indicate with a note that the property has curb-side pick-up.
7. What do the various'lines within the parking lot represent? Are these topographical lines?
Provide one foot inten/als for slopes less than 5%. The drainage arrow in the parking lot
shows the surface water flowing towards the driveway entrance. The parking lot needs to be
graded such that drainage falls toward the landscaped drainage swale located at the north
end of the site. Othen/vise, the design as proposed would not filter surface pollutants. Please
provide a cross section of this drainage swale. Also, add additional proposed and existing
spot elevations throughout the site, including along the drainage swale. The drainage arrow at
the north east corner of the lot suggests that drainage is flowing onto the adjacent lot. At this
location, flow needs to be directed to the public street preferably by sheet flow.
8. Change the "no exif sign to "one way - do not enter".
Attached Is a relined plan showing some of the issues which must be addressed. If you or
the applicant have any questions regarding the above, please either see or call me at extension
4324.
