SUBJECT: CD 2018-0015 (DEV2017-0069)-SIX ON MADISON
{"city of
Carlsbad
The City Planner has completed a review of your application for Consistency Determination CD 2018-0015,
(APN: 203-305-10-00) which is a modification to CT 2017-0004/RP 2017-0009-Six on Madison, a request
for a Tentative Tract Map and Major Review Permit for the construction of a mixed-use building consisting
of 943 square feet of commercial space and six residential condominium unlts located at the northwest
corner of Madison Street and Oak Avenue.
After careful consideration of the request, the City Planner has determined that the request meets all of
the findings below and APPROVES this request. The proposed modifications include:
• Enclosing the fourth-floor walkway along the north side of the building.
• Extending the stairway enclosure on _the east and west ends of the building to create an
enclosed area at the residential unit entries.
• Minor changes to the floor plan layout that reduce the commercial space from 943 square
feet (s.f.) to 905 s.f. (-38 s.f.).
• Minor changes to the floor plan layout that reduce the total residential square footage from
12,717 s.f. to 12,569 s.f. (-148 s.f.).
In order for a Discretionary Permit Consistency Determination to be approved, all of the following findings
must be made:
1) No project condition, feature, facility or amenity is changed or deleted that had been considered
essential to the project's design, quality, safety or function. -
2) The request represents an upgrade in overall design features and or materials and improves upon
the project's compatibility with the surrounding neighborhood in that the fourth-floor (top floor)
walkway will be enclosed with a solid wall and windows, and the exposed walkway on the
second and third floor is reduced in length by the enclosure of the unit entries. This creates a
more cohesive architectural design by adding more exterior stucco to the north elevation as
provided on the other elevations.
3} The proposed revision does not change the density or boundary of the subject property.

4) The proposed revision does not involve the addition of a new land use not shown on the original
permit.
5) The proposed revision does not rearrange the major land uses within the development.
6} The proposed revision does not create changes of greater than ten percent provided that
compliance will be maintained with the applicable development standards of the Carlsbad
Municipal Code in that the building footprint remains the same and the square footage is not
increased.
7) The proposed change will not result in any significant environmental impact, and/or require
additional mitigation.
8} The proposed change would not result in any health, safety or welfare impacts.
9} There were not any major issues or controversies associated with the original project w(lich would
be exacerbated with the proposed change.
10} The proposed change would not be readily discernable to the decision makers as being
substantially different from the project as originally approved.
Therefore, the City Planner has determined that the application qualifies for a consistency determination
with the approved permit and approves the changes to the project based on Planning Division
Administrative Policy No. 35.
