Kevin Donahue
1014 Daisy Court
Carlsbad,CA 92011
RE:CDP 2017-0062 (DEV2017-0205)—DONAHUE ADDITION
The City has completed a review of the application for a Minor Coastal Development Permit for the
development of a 498 square foot addition to an existing single-family home located at 1014 Daisy Court
(APN 214-410-08-00).
It is the City Planner's determination that the project CDP 2017-0062 —DONAHUE ADDITION, is consistent
with the City's applicable Coastal Development Regulations (Chapters 21.201 -21.205) and with all other
applicable City ordinances and policies.The City Planner, therefore, APPROVES this request based upon
the following:
1.That the total cost of the proposed development is less than $60,000.
2.That the proposed development requires no discretionary approvals other than a Minor Coastal
Development Permit.
3.That the development is in conformity with the public access and public recreation policies of
Chapter 3 of the Coastal Act, in that no public opportunities for coastal access are available from
the subject site, nor are public recreation areas required of the project as the property is not
located adjacent to the shore; therefore, it will not interfere with the public's right to physical
access or water-oriented recreational activities.
4.The proposed development will have no adverse effect on coastal resources, in that the location
of the property is not immediately adjacent to any body of water and the lot is already disturbed
and developed with a single-family home.
5.That the proposed development is in conformance with the. Mello II Segment of the Certified
Local Coastal Program and all applicable policies in that the site is designated R-4 (Residential, 0-
4 dwelling units per acre) which allows for residential development, including a single-family
home and any subsequent additions.The proposed project consists of a 498 square foot
addition to an existing single-family home. The addition will not obstruct views of the coastline
as seen from public lands or the public right-of-way, nor otherwise damage the visual beauty of
the coastal zone.No agricultural uses currently exist on the site, nor are there any sensitive

resources located on the property.Furthermore, the proposed addition to the single-family
home is not located in an area of known geologic instability or flood hazards.

(Chapter 21.203 of the Zoning Ordinance) in that the project will adhere to the city's Master
Drainage Plan,Grading Ordinance,Storm Water Ordinance,and the National Pollutant

pollutants and soil erosion.In addition, the area of the addition is relatively flat and does not

removed; and the site is not located in an area prone to landslides, or susceptible to accelerated
erosion, floods or liquefaction.
