Background On July 16, 2019, the City Council considered a staff recommendation for addressing street segments that failed to meet the city's Growth Management Plan (GMP) circulation performance standard, as reported under the fiscal year 2017-18 Growth Management Plan Monitoring Report. At that same meeting, the City Council directed staff to return with additional options to address the LFMZ 15 deficiencies. Discussion Under Carlsbad Municipal Code section 21.90.080, if a GMP performance standard is not met, then no development permits or building permits shall be issued within the local zone until the performance standard is met or arrangement satisfactory to the City Council guaranteeing the facilities and improvements have been made. Several of the reported street segment deficiencies affected LFMZ 15, where private property is located. The LFMZ 15 related street segment deficiencies could be resolved by the completion of an extension of College Boulevard (Cannon Road to Sunny Creek Road), which would be fully located on private property. The city's GMP requires that private development provide, or guarantee, adequate facilities/improvements prior to, or concurrent with development. Therefore, the city has anticipated that the College Boulevard extension would be constructed by projects located on private property in LFMZ 15. However, to date, private development in LFMZ 15 has been unable to undertake, or guarantee, construction of the College Boulevard extension.

In 1986, Carlsbad residents voted to pass the GivlP, which put conditidris oh how growtffli'fthe City of Carlsbad could occur. Under the GMP, the impact of development on public facilities is me~sured against adopted "performance standards." If at any time a proposed development Wol~Jd contribute to a failure of any of .:these adopted facility performance standards, the development cannot be approved until the problem is resolved. The streets network is evaluated using a LOS method, and, in 2015, the General Plan Mobility Element established a performance standard of LOS D or better. Development is prohibited in a LFMZ that is affected by a deficient street segment until the problem is resolved to the satisfaction ofthe City Council. Ca:rlspad had used the-same LOS method (1dJ)' fo evaluate traffic con'ditions',srnce the'GMP ifionitoring program was implemented. The 2015 General Plan Mobility Element shifted the approach to require that all vehicular LOS analyses for growth management purposes be consistent with the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM}. Therefore, the LOS analyses for the GMP 1119nitoring program were revised to comply with the latest version of the HCM. Each year staff collects traffic data accordi'ngto; tlle GMP01onitoring progr;:lrtl to cl~termirwif the performance standard is being met for each facility. The Annual Growth Management Monitoring Report fiscal year (FY) 2017-18 (Exhibit 3) applied the new LOS HCM methods. Table 1 lists the eight street segments that failed to meet the LOS D standard for FY 2017-18. Staff recommends City Council determine that these street segments are deficient according to the GMP circulation performance standard, that Council adopt staff's proposed measures for four . of the eight defici~nt facilities, and that Council prohibit the issuance of building and ,development permits in LFMZ 15 for projects that add traffic to the remaining four deficient street segments until the performance standard is met or arrangements satisfactory to the City Council are in place that guarantee the necessary facilities and improvements. Oi'stuss,on . Background P.priOlar:yob.jective of the GMPiHo ensure that ade'quate pohiitfadlities are·:provided concurrent with growth as established by Proposition E, which was passed by voters in 1986. Pr6p9Sition E establishe(f broad guidelines for determining adequacy of public facilities. These gtiid~IJries are further defined in the Citywide Facilities and Improvements Plan (CFIP) by means July 16, 2019 Item #4 of specific performance standards for eath of the 11 public facilities. The CAP established the following performance standard forthe clrculationfacillty group that includes street segments: Implement a ~ompreh~nsivg liiir;b,lestreet.soetwqrk thatsetvtz~ all us.ets of the s,ystem ..., vehftles, pedestrians, bicycles .and public transit. Maintarn LOS Dor betti?r foraH modes thati:tre subject to this multi-modal level of service (MM LOS) standard, as identified in Tab/e3,,1 of the General Plan Mobility Element, excluding LOS exempt intersections and streets approv_ed by the City Council.

The · GMP requires development activity to stop in an LFMZ if a performance standard is not being met or a facility located in the LFMZ is determined to be deficient, unless arrangements satisfactory to the City Council are made guaranteeing the facilities and improvements. No development permits or building permits can be issued in the affected LFMZ until the problem i's resolved. · P{ 20.1t-2018 Monitorlng Repo.rt•and StreetSegmentDeflciencies Each Y<tar, staff monttors the i1 different publlcfadlity systems and submits a report,to City Council comparing performance data aga.inst the adopted stantlards.

Wi;th respectto deeming street facilities built out and exempt from the LOS D stahdard, the G~neralPlan Mobility Element acknowledgesthat the city cannot always rely on adding rol:lgway capacity to address deficiencies. In other words, the city cannot always build our way ouh,>f traffic congestion. City Council can approve exemptions from the street segment LOS standard when build-out criteria are met per General Plan Mobility Element Policy 3-P.9: Develop and mdintairt i:J list of street fad/ities where sjiecified modes of travel are exempt from the LOS standard (LOS exempt street facilities), as approved by the City Council. For LOS exempt street facilities, the city will not implement improvements to maintain the LOS standard outline.din Policy 3-P.4 if such improvements are beyond what is identified as appropriate at build out of the General Plan. In the case ofstreet facilities where the vehicle mode of travel is exempt from the LOS standard, other non-vehicle capacity-building improvements will be required to improve mobility through implementation of transportation demand and transportation system management measures as outlined in Policy 3-P.11, to the extent feasible, and/or to implement the Uvable streets goals and policies of this Mobility Element. Evaluate the list of exempt street facilities, as part of the .. Growth Management monitoring program, to determine if such exemptions are stj}/ wq.rrttnted. To exempt the vehicle mode of travel from the LOS standard at a particular ~tteeFintersection or segment, the intersection or street segment must be identified as built- out by the City Council because: q. ac_qa{ring the rights ofwqyis notfeaslble; Qt b.. the proposed improvements would significantly impact the environment in an unacceptable way and mitigation would not contribute to the nine core values of the Carlsbad Community Vision; or c.. the proposed improvements would result in unacceptable impacts to other community values or General Plan policies; or d. the proposed improvements would require more than three through travel lanes in each direction. Geli~rar Plan Policy 3-P.11 requires new deveioprnenfthat adds vehicle frafficto streetfadlities Wat are exempt from the vehicle LOS standard to implement: • · TDM strategies that reduce the reliance on single,.occupant automobile and assist in :achieving the city's livable streets vision; and •• TSM strategies that improve traffic signal coordination and improve transit service. The City Couridt previously deemed the foUowintfstreet facilities built out and exempt from the LOS standard during the 2015 General Plan amendment adoption (these segments are thus npW subject to TDM/TSM requirements as described in General Plan Mobility Element Policy 3- P.11): l.:a Costa Avenue between Interstate::.$ and El Ca-mirioReal July 16, 2019 Item #4 Page 5 of 27 -1:l .Camlho Real between Palomar AWport Road and La Costa Avenue Palcimai' Airport Road between lnterstate-5 and College Boulevard -p'aloii1,arAirport Road between El Camino Real and Melrose Drive Ttible 1sug,roc1rizes.s1afts recqrnrnended,actf6i1S regarding each ofthe eight deficient street. segtnents:Staffs recommended actions are further described below: Ptoposed M~asures to Address Four Street Segment Deficiendes . . St~ffre~ornn'l~n<Jsthat: the :city Council atfotit the following measures to address four of the ·~!ght identifi'~<tstreet deficiencies: 1. O.etetr;nfoe ~treet $egrnents to be btdlt cfut and exemptffom th~'LOSp stan<;i'~rd pursuantto Mobility Element Policy 3-P.9, as follows: • El Camino Real between Oceanside city limits and Marron Road (northbound and southbound): Addressing these deficiencies through roadway improvements would r¢quire widening El Camino Real to accommodate one or more additional through lanes. Staff does not support such a project because this section of El Camino Real is currently three lanes in each direction of the deficiencies. Adding more than three through lanes to address circulation deficiencies is inconsistent with the City's policy to shift from roadway improvements to TDM/TSM measures at build out. Therefore1 staff recommends that these street segments be exempted from the LOS D standard pJ.1rs:uant to Mobility Element Policy 3-P.9 (c;J). These deficient street segments are loci:!ted in LFMZ 1 and LFMZ 2. Pursuant to Policy 3-P.11, future development in . IJMZ'l and LFMZ 2 that add traffic to the exempt segments will be subject to <implementing appropriate TSM and TDM strategies. • College Boulevard southbound .. from Aston Avenueto·Paiomar:AirportRoad: CIP Ptoject No. 6028 could potentially atldtessthis-deficientyby re~striping and eliminating the existing bike lane to allow a second through lane. Staff is not recommending this project because doing so would create a safety concern for · l)kyclists and conflict with Mobility Element guidance for arterial streets, which ~fates, "Bicycle lanes shall be provided and can be further enhanced or c:qrnplemented by other facilities or off-street pathways (Table 3-1, Carlsbad Livable · Streets Guide; p. 3-11)." AlternatiV~Jy, CIP Project No. 6028 could be rede'signed;to wld~n the inters~btJon . within existing right-of-way. However, such widening could impact existing hardline Ha(?ltatManagement Plan (HMP) preserve area, impact sensitive upland and/or · riparian habitat in the Coastal Zone, and be constrained by an existing SDG&E pd'(V¢rline easement and tower support. Therefore, staff is recommending this street section be deemed built out and exempted from the LOS D standard pursuant 'tcf Policy 3-P.9 (c). This deficient street segment is loca'ted in LFMZ 5. Pursuant to . Policy 3-P.11, future development in LFMZ 5 that add traffic to the exempt segment Will be subject to implementing appropriate TSM and TOM strategies. July 16, 2019 Item #4 Page 6 of 27 · 2. Expedi~e the·construction of existing CiP project No. 6'c>34 to address the deficiency · reported on Melrose Drive: . • Melrose Drive southbound from Vista City limits to Palomar Airport Road: tills deficient street segment is located in LFMZ 18. CIP Project No. 6034 will address this deficiency by adding a southbound right turn lane and re-striping to provide a third southbound through lane on southbound Melrose Drive at the intersection with P~lomar Airport Drive. Adjustment of the adjacent open space boundary within the right-of~way (a recorded irrevocable offer to dedicate area of approximately 0.24 acres for future road improvements) is necessary to accommodate the improvements. Staff recommends that the City Council waive applicable right-of-. . way open space boundary adjustment requirements pursuantto General Plan Policy 4~P.6 which states: "City Council may exempt public rights-of-way from the open space boundary adjustment requirements. However, environmental analysis shall be performed for all proposed public right-of-way improvements, and if determined that there are significant adverse impaci:s to the value of the open space system, thoseih-\pacts shall be mitigated." . . The open space is a road parkway area consisting of ornamental fatidsdrpff1g; is not eilvironm entally constrained, was anticipated to be utilized for future roadway · Improvements ~s evidence by the recorded irrevocable offer to dedicate, and the .GJ\t1Popen space acreage standard for LFMZ 18 will still be met. Upon construction of the proposed improvement, this roadway section will meet the LOS D standard · and LFMZ 18 will not be reported as impacted by this road segment. This street segment will continue to be monitored as part of the City's annual GMP monitoring requirements. . . -. . . P-roposedProliibition on Development in LFiVIZ 15 . Cr P Project No~ 3636 fs l'Otated in LFMZ 15 and would extend College Boulevatd between· El' Camino Real and Cannon Road. A separate CIP project located in LFMZ 15 is programmed, but . ndtfuHy ruhded, to widen El Camino Real northbound from Sonny Creek Road to Jackspar Drive; Tfresetvvo projects are fully located on private property in LFMZ 15 and would resolve ihe four remaining street deficiencies (El Camino Real southbound from Cannon Rd. to College . Blvd.; El Camino Real northbound from College Blvd. to Cannon Rd.; Cannon Rd. eastbound ffbm El Camino Real to College Blvd.; and Cannon Rd. westbound from College Blvd. to El Camino Real). Fyti.ire private q~VE?(Qp!Jll;)lll Willfully fund fi,e, outstanding balance of these two ph:ijed:s: Therefore, the deficiencies reported on these street segments are not expected to be fully resolved until the proposed projects located on private property in LFMZ 15 are fully . peveloped. Development outside of LFMZ 15 is not expected to directly participate in the fun.ding, permitting or other aspects of the construction of these projects. For these reasons, LfMZ 15 is considered the sole "affected LFMZ" for the deficiencies reported on Cannon Road and El Camino Real south of Cannon Road. July 16, 2019 Item #4 Page 7 of27 Although they will not fully address the four remaining street deficiencies, staff recommends expediting two existing CIP projects to reduce area congestion on El Camino Real between Cannon Road and College Boulevard: • CIP Project No. 6042, which is currently fllnded and will reduce northbound congestion on this street segment through intersection improvements at El Camino Real and Cannon Road. • CiP Project No. 6071, which is currently funded and will reduce southbound c;ongestion on this street segment through intersection improvements at El Camino Realand College Boulevard. CMCSection 21.90.080 requires that if "the performance standard established by a plan are not met then no development permits or building permits shall be issued within the local zone until the performance standard is met or arrangements satisfactory to the city council guaranteeing the facilities and improvements have been made." Therefore, until the deficiencies are fully addressed, staff recommends that the. Council prohibit the issuance of building and µ-~velopment permits for projects in LFMZ 15 that add traffic to the below deficient street segments: • ELCamino Real southbound from Cannon Road to College B:oulevard • · El Camino Real northbound from College Boulevard to Cannon Road • Cannon Road eastbound from El Camino Real to College Boulevard • Cannon Road westbound from College Boulevard to El Camino Real Staff wilt report back to City Council in ninety (90} days on potential arrangements that would gllarantee the facilities and improvements necessary to meet the LOS performance standard for the,above four str~et segments. If ~rrangements satisfactory to the City Council are made to gliarantee the facilities and improvements, then the city can remove the prohibition on the issua:nce of development and building permits in LFMZ 15. Fiscal Analysis The proposed Resolution does not have a direct ff seal impact. No new CiP projects have been identified in this staff report. Staff annually reviews the CIP program and adjusts project costs accordingly with recommended funding changes proposed as part of the budget approval process. The resulting development restrictions in LFMZ 15 may have indirect fiscal impacts such as delayed development fee collection. NextSteps Consistent with the Council's direction, staff will update the applicabie LFMP and CFIP as needed to comply with the CMC and GMP, and will remove or expedite existing CIP projects. Fleld data has been collected and analysis is being prepared for the next Annual Growth Management Monitoring Report FY 2018-19. Staff:witl report back to City CounciUn ninety (90) days on potential arrangements that would guarantee the facilities and improvements necessary to meet the LOS performance standard for the above four street segments. If arrangements satisfactory to the City Council are made to July 16, 2019 Item #4 Page 8 of 27 .guarant~e the f;;icilities and improvements, then tlie city can remove the prohibition 011 the . . . issuance of development and building permits in LFMz'is. · Environmental Evaluation (CEQA) Exempting street segments and intersections from the GMP circulation L.Os standard. isan activity that was previously evaluated in the Fin'al Program Environmental impact R~port (~lR) ;J.:3-02 for the General Plan update (GPA 07~02 }, dated September 22; 2015. The City Council tnay declare certain street facilities as built-out and approve LOS exemptions consistent with General Plan Mobility Element Policy 3-P.9 provided that subsequent development projects within-exempted lFMZs incorporate appropriate TOM and TSM measures to reduce project Jmpacts, The EIR evaluated the potential environmental effects of the implementation of · GaneralPfan policies and Climate Action Plan measures that would reduce congestion and · vehicle:..related demand through TOM and TSM. Therefore, pursuant to California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Section 15168 (c) (2), the action to exempt the r:ecornmended street segments from the GMP circulation LOS performance standard is within the scope of the Final Program EIR 13-02 and no further CEQA compliance is required.
