COASTAL DEVELOPMENT PERMITS FOR
VILLAGE REDEVELOPMENT ARECI
If Housing and Redevelopment Commission concurs, your action is
to adopt Resolution Nos. 126, 127, 128, and 129, APPROVING CDP
88-7, 88-8, 88-9, and 88-10, Village Redevelopment Area
Streetscape Project.
ITEM EXPLANATION:
On December 14, 1987, the City of Carlsbad received permit
issuing authority for Coastal Development Permits within the
Redevelopment Area.
For Coastal Development Permit issuance, the Streetscape Project
was broken into four (4) separate actions. The first, CDP 88-7,
Resolution No. 126, is street improvements on Elm Avenue from Pio
Pica to Garfield Street and on Carlsbad Boulevard from Oak Avenue
to Pacific Street. CDP 88-8, Resolution No. 127, is for the
Streetscape Sculpture Park on Carlsbad Boulevard at Oak Avenue.
CDP 88-9, Resolution No. 128; is for the portions of the
Streetscape Project on Elm Avenue and Carlsbad Boulevard which
are within the Coastal Development appeal Area. CDP 88-10,
Resolution No. 129, is for the off-street parking lots to be
built as replacement for parking spaces removed from Elm Avenue.
The Planning Director has determined that the Streetscape Project
has already been considered in conjunction with a previously
certified Negative Declaration dated January 20, 1988, and
confirmed by Housing and Redevelopment Commission Resolution No.
98, dated February 2, 1988, and has therefore, issued a Notice of
Prior Compliance dated January 18, 1989.
Approval of the attached Resolutions will issue the Coastal
Development Permits for the Village Redevelopment Area
Streetscape Project.
%
FISCAL IMPACT:
There will be no fiscal impact as a result of the approval of the
Coastal Development Permits for the Streetscape Project. The
Housing and Redevelopment Commission has previously considered
the expenditure for the project using Tax Allocation Bond Funds.

Housing and Redevelopment Commission ADOPT Resolution
127, 128, and 129, APPROVING CDP 88-7, CDP 88-8,
and CDP 88-10, based on the findings and conditions
contained therein.
II. PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND
As indicated by the separate applications, the project has four
distinct components.
The first component is the enhancement of the Elm Avenue and
Carlsbad Boulevard Streetscapes. The enhancement would extend
from Pio Pica to Garfield Street on Elm Avenue from Oak to
Pacific Street on Carlsbad Boulevard. The project proposes; 1)
resurfacing roadways and sidewalks, 2) enhancing the landscaping
of the roadway medians and parkway, and 31 roadway improvements
to enhance circulation and access to the Village. On-street
parking and bike routes on Elm Avenue will be eliminated by the
project.
The second component is the Streetscape Sculpture. This project
is located on State owned property west of Carlsbad Boulevard,
between Pine and Oak Avenues.
The third component is the portion of the Streetscape Program on Elm Avenue and Carlsbad Boulevard which is within the Coastal
Development Permit Appeals area. Approvals of projects within
this area can be appealed to the California Coastal Commission.
The last component of the project is an off-street Downtown
parking program.

III. ANALYSIS
Does the project conform to the Village Redevelopment segment of
Carlsbad's adopted Local Coastal Program?
On December 14, 1987, the California Coastal Commission granted
permit authority to the Redevelopment Agency to issue Coastal
Development Permits. Coastal Development Permits must implement
the Village Design Manual and the specific Coastal requirements
outlined in the Village Design Manual. For the project, those
requirements relate to urban design, the provision of adequate
off-street parking and the elimination of bicycle facilities on
Elm Flvenue.
The Streetscape Project’s Design clearly implements the design
goals of the redevelopment area. The Streetscape Project will
provide landscaping, enhanced pavement, pedestrian furniture -
such as benches and trash compactors, public art and signage.
The specific coastal requirements do not allow reductions, or
off-site provision of, off-street parking requirements for
redevelopment projects unless amendments or exemptions are
formally approved by the Coastal Commission. The proposed
Streetscape Project will remove approximately 92-95 on-street
parking spaces. Although not a Coastal requirement, these 92-95
on-street spaces will be replaced by the 111 off-street spaces
proposed by the Downtown Parking Program. The project complies
with the Specific Coastal parking standards of the Village
Redevelopment Segment of Carlsbad's Local Coastal Program for two
reasons. First the proposed project in total will increase the
amount of parking by 16-19 spaces, second, the 111 off-street
parking spaces will not be used to satisfy any required off-site
parking requirements for any other redevelopment project.
Carlsbad's circulation element of the General plan identifies Elm
Avenue as a bicycle route and the Village Design Manual
specifically encourages bicycle linkages within the redevelopment
area. Although the proposed project could make safe bike travel
on Elm Avenue difficult, it will provide bike routes one block
north on Grand Avenue from Harding to Carlsbad Boulevard. As a
result, this improvement would be consistent with Carlsbad's
circulation element to provide safe and efficient bike travel in
the area.
ENVIRONMENTAL
The Planning Director has determined that this project has
already been considered in conjunction with a previously
certified Negative Declaration dated, January 20, 1988, and
confirmed by Housing and Redevelopment Commission Resolution No.
98, February 2, 1988, and therefore, has issued a Notice of Prior
Environmental Compliance dated January 18, 1989. A copy of the
Negative Declaration is on file in the Planning Department.
