STAFF REPORT
DATE: May 17, 1989
TO: PLANNING COMMISSION
FROM: PLANNING DEPARTMENT
SUBJECT: MP - 177(A) - AVIARA PACIFIC - Request for approval of an Amendment
to Master Plan 177 (Pacific Rim Country Club and Resort) to revise
Specific Planning area development standards for property located
in Local Facilities Management Zone 19, north of Batiquitos Lagoon
and west of E1 Camino Real.
I. RECOMMENDATION
That the Planning Commission ADOPT Resolution No. 2863 recommending (1) APPROVAL
of MP-177(A), as modified, based on the findings and subject to the conditions
contained therein.
II. PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND
On December 22, 1987, the City Council approved the Pacific Rim Country Club and
Resort Master Plan (MP-177). Master Plan - 177 includes Planning Area specific
development standards for each of the 32 Planning Areas of the Master Plan. As
proposed, the developer, Hillman Properties is requesting that three of the
Planning Area Development Standards be amended as discussed below. These three
proposed amendments will be referred to as Sections 1, 2 and 3 within this
report. (See Exhibit "A", Developer's Proposal)
1. SECTION I - PLANNING AREAS 4, 8, 14 and 24
For these four, small lot Single Family Planning Areas, Master Plan-177 specifies
that "The minimum building separation shall be 10 feet between one story
structures, 15 feet between one and two story structures and 20 feet between two
or more story structures."
Hillman Properties requests that this building separation standard be deleted
and replaced by the following requirements:
(1) That the minimum distance between structures within these small lot, single
family planning areas shall comply with Section 21.45.090(5) of the Planned
Development Ordinance. Where there are fewer than 10 structures in a row
the separation between dwelling units shall vary from 10 feet to 14 feet,
with a Planning Area - wide average of 12 feet and
(2) that developments proposed within these Planning Areas comply with the
recently adopted (by Planning Commission) "Guidelines For Small -Lot Single
Family Detached Projects."
2. SECTION 2 PLANNING AREA 9
Master Plan-177 specifies that for this multifamily residential planned unit
development, "All structures and parking shall be setback a minimum of 20 feet
from internal streets."
r
MP-177(A) AVIARA PACIFIC
MAY 17, 1989
PAGE 2
Hillman Properties requests that this standard be qualified whereby front
setbacks on attached structures, with side -loaded garages may be varied to a 15
foot average with a 10 foot minimum."
3. SECTION 3 PLANNING AREA 3
For this standard lot (7500 SF) single family residential planning area, Master
Plan 177 specifies that: "To encourage height variation for this neighborhood,
10 of the units shall not exceed a height of 18 feet above finished grade."
Hillman Properties requests that this height standard be replaced with the
following; "To encourage height variation for this neighborhood at least 2 of
the units (Those within the Seaport Viewshed) shall not exceed a height of 18
feet above finished grade, and all of the units shall exhibit substantial
roofline variation."
III. ANALYSIS
1. SECTION 1 PLANNING AREAS 4, 8, 14 & 24
At the time that the existing building separation guidelines were incorporated
into Master Plan 177, there existed a City staff and Planning Commission concern
regarding the appearance of small lot, Single Family Planned Development Projects
that had already been constructed under the former City Standards (minimum of
10 feet between structures). The City staff and Planning Commission, were
concerned that these projects appeared overbuilt and that by increasing the
required separation between dwelling units from ten feet to fifteen or twenty
feet, overall project appearance would be enhanced.
In view of this concern, the Planned Development Ordinance was amended in 1987
to require that: "When more than ten structures in a row front or back on a
street, the distance between two and three story structures shall not be less
than twenty feet and the distance between two-story and one-story structures
shall not be less than fifteen feet."
Since that time, the overall City staff and Planning Commission understanding
of the problem of "large dwelling units on small lots" has evolved whereby the
Planning Commission adopted "Architectural Guidelines for small lot Single Family
detached units (February 15, 1989). It is staffs opinion that these guidelines,
which will supplement the existing development standard, of the Planned
Development Ordinance should be adequate (except in highly visible areas) to
enable quality small lot single family project design within Carlsbad.
Overall, staff recommends support of amended building separation standards (as
modified below) for Planning Areas 4, 8, 14 and 24 in that those projects
proposed within those Planning Areas (4, 8, 14 and 24) will exceed the existing
building separation development standards of the Planned Development Ordinance,
and the recently adopted Architectural Guidelines for Small Lot Single Family
Detached Units." As proposed by the developer, the required building separation
(regardless of whether there are 10 structures in a row) will range between 10
to 14 feet (with an average of 12 feet). Staff agrees that the architectural
guidelines adopted by the Planning Commission could allow for a reduction in the
MP-177(A) AVIARA PACIFY
MAY 17, 1989
PAGE 3
Master Plan requirement of 20' between buildings. Staff does not agree with the
10' minimum requested by the developer. Staff feels the Master Plan should still
be greater than other areas of the City and would recommend a minimum of 12 feet
between buildings and an average separation of 14 feet.
2. SECTION 2 PLANNING AREA 9
Overall, staff recommends support of this amendment to Planning Area 9 because
(1) this amendment request, to allow reduced frontyard setbacks (average of 15
feet with a 10 foot minimum) for attached, multifamily dwelling units, with side -
loaded garages, would still be more restrictive than the existing Planned
Development Ordinance, and (2) because this amendment should enable the applicant
to create a more diverse and aesthetically appealing street scene, and (3) this
would only apply to Planning Area 9.
3. SECTION 3 PLANNING AREA 3
At this time staff is unable to recommend support of the applicants request to
reduce the number of one story units within Planning Area 3 from 10 to 2 because
staff does not have adequate information to make this decision. This development
standard (10 one story dwelling units) was incorporated within this Planning Area
for purposes of ensuring that existing views from the adjacent Seaport
development were preserved. In fact, the preservation of these views is a
Special Design Criteria of this Planning Area. Up until now, the applicant has
not provided any evidence to staff which justifies modification of this section.
Staff has proposed an additional change to the height section of area 3 (p. 81
of the Master Plan). Staff has put a maximum height of 20 feet (at peak) to
single story structures and has indicated more clearly the intent to have the
single story structures adjacent to the Seaport Development.
In summary, staff is recommending approval of the Master Plan Amendment only with
the following suggested modifications as discussed above:
1. Section I, the reduction in building separation be modified to allow
a 12 foot minimum with a 14 foot average.
2. Section 2, no modifications proposed.
3. Section 3, Reject the applicant's proposal to reduce the number of
one story structures from 10 to 2 and modify page 81 of the Master
Plan to establish a maximum height of 20 feet measured to the highest
point of the roof for single story structures and that these single
story structures be located adjacent to the Seaport development.
Finally, staff is recommending an addition to page 41 of the Master Plan (The
Architectural Guidelines - Condition 11) which would require that any
modifications to the Guidelines when incorporated into the code shall also be
reflected in the Master Plan.

within the Pacific Rim Country Club and Resort, the color
white will be used extensively either on its own or mixed
with other colors. In essence, all wall surface colors
with the exception of Planning Area 28 will be a tint of
white. Therefore, the overall wall surface scheme will
be based on color value rather than hue. This means the
entire range of hues will be permissible in order to meet
personal and market demands. Stain colors will be gauged
similarly. A more detailed description of these colors
and a color palette will be included in the Pacific Rim
Country Club and Resort Design Guidelines.
Optional colors may be allowed in single family
detached planning areas provided that they are found
to be compatible with the colors and character of
the Master Plan area by the Planning Department.
As discussed under roof treatments above, roof
colors shall be in the red to reddish -brown to
orange range. Color variations in a roof tile piece
or plane are allowed, provided a compatible
appearance is maintained.
GUIDELINES - Detached Products - PUD
1. In projects where there are three 2 story units in a row
situated less than 15 feet apart, at least one of the
three units shall have a single story building edge with
a depth of not less than 10 feet adjacent to one of the
other units. The roof covering the single story element
shall be substantially lower than the roof for the 2
story element to the unit (this is not intended to
preclude long shed -type roofs falling to a single -story
element.)
2. In projects where there are three 2 story units in a row
situated between 15 and 20 feet apart, at least one of
the three units shall have a single story building edge
with a depth of not less than 5 feet adjacent to one of
the other unit. The roof of the single story element
shall be substantially lower than the roof for the two
story element of the building (this is not intended to
preclude long shed -type roofs falling to single -story
element).
3. On a project basis, thirty-three percent (33%) of all
units shall have a single story edge for forty percent
(40%) of the perimeter of the building. For the purpose
of this guideline the single story edge shall be a
minimum depth of three feet (P ). The units qualifying
under the 33% shall be distributed throughout the
project.
41
4.
4. For at least 50% of the units in a project, there shall
be at least three separate building planes on street side
elevations of lots with 45 feet of frontage or less, and
four separate building planes on street side elevations
of lots with a frontage greater than 45 feet. The
minimum offset in planes shall be 18 inches and shall
include but not be limited to building walls, windows and
roofs. The minimum depth between the faces of the
forward -most plane and the rear plane on the front
elevation shall be 10 feet and a plane must be a minimum
of 30 sq. ft. to receive credit under this section.
5. Rear elevations shall adhere to the same criteria
outlined in number 4 above for front elevations except
that the minimum depth between front and back planes on
the rear elevation shall be 3 feet.
6. At least 50% of the units in a project shall have one
side elevation where there are sufficient offsets or
cutouts so that the side yard setback averages a minimum
of 7 feet.
7. Projects with an average lot
less shall limit the number
garages to 75% of the plans
units with three car garages

8. Fifty percent (50%) of exterior openings (doors/windows)
shall be recessed or projected a minimum of 2" and shall
be with wood or colored aluminum window frames (no mill
finishes).
9. Variety in Roof Framing Direction
The predominant roof framing for each floor plan shall
exhibit directional variety to the other floor plans of
the same project.
Notes: a) For the purpose of these guidelines a
single story element shall be defined as a
plate line of 12 feet or less.
b) In addition, when a percentage of units is
described in the guidelines the intent is
to have that percentage spread throughout
the entire project.
Landscaping
a. Community Landscape Concept
The major components of the landscape design are the
resort area, golf course, lagoon shoreline, hillsides and
streetscape.
42
0 � 1 0
1) Resort Area
The resort area (Planning Areas 2, 9, 10 and 11)
creates the dominant landscape character and theme
to be reflected throughout the community. It will
resemble a hillside village within a natural
landscape with the introduction of agricultural
groves at its periphery and ornamental plants in its
interior garden areas. Cars on the parking deck are
screened with trellis rows that recall vineyards.
The hotel courtyard is paved with rough stone and
exposed aggregate concrete and is framed by a
pergola with flowering vines. It is connected by a
narrow garden consisting of ramps, stairs, low
terrace walls, naturalized plantings and a linear
water feature.
2) Golf Course
Golf course areas limit turf to fairways, tees and
greens. Naturalized vegetation provide a transition
to existing slopes. Hedgerows or eucalyptus follow
the valley slope. Water features shall provide
obstacles to the golfer as well as create an
attractive natural connection to Batiquitos Lagoon.
3) Lagoon Shoreline
The lagoon shoreline shall be preserved and in areas
of disturbance or decline the naturalized setting
shall be reestablished.
4) Hillsides
Hillsides throughout the project will be carefully
planned due to their extremely sensitive nature and
visibility. Four concepts will apply to these
areas:
- All development shall comply with the City's
Hillside Ordinance (Chapter 21.95).
- All development shall comply with the grading and
natural resource preservation policies of the
underlying Local Coastal Programs.
- Existing tree groves and vegetation will be
preserved to the greatest extent feasible.
- Erosion control techniques shall be employed
where needed.
43
- Views to and from the_ lagoon and golf course
shall be preserved to the greatest extent
feasible. View preservation is illustrated on
Exhibit IV-3.
- The landscape treatment shall present a visually
cohesive appearance, since hillsides will be
viewed from distant areas such as La Costa
Avenue, El Camino Real, Interstate 5 and
surrounding neighborhoods.

CHAPTER IV. COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS
Page 41 shall be amended to incorporate a new Section g. Architectural Guidelines
for Planned Unit Development Detached Products, directly following Section
f. Colors.
AMENDED PAGE 41 SHALL READ AS:
g. Architectural Guidelines for Planned Unit Development Detached Products
1. In projects where there are three 2 story units in a row situated less than
15 feet apart, at least one of the three units shall have a single story
building edge with a depth of not less than 10 feet adjacent to one of the
other units. The roof covering the single story element shall be
substantially lower than the roof for the 2 story element to the unit (this
is not intended to preclude long shed -type roofs falling to a single -story
element.)
2. In projects where there are three 2 story units in a row situated between
15 and 20 feet apart, at least one of the three units shall have a single
story building edge with a depth of not less than 5 feet adjacent to one
of the other unit. The roof of the single story element shall be
substantially lower than the roof for the two story element of the building
(this is not intended to preclude long shed -type roofs falling to single -
story element).
3. On a project basis, thirty-three percent (33%) of all units shall have a
single story edge for forty percent (40%) of the perimeter of the building.
For the purpose of this guidelines the single story edge shall be a minimum
depth of three feet (3'). The units qualifying under the 33% shall be
distributed throughout the project.
4. For at least fifty per cent (50%) of the units in a project, there shall
be a least three separate building planes on street side elevations of lots
with 45 feet of frontage or less, and four separate building planes on
street side elevations of lots with a frontage greater than 45 feet. The
minimum offset in planes shall be 18 inches and shall include but not be
limited to building walls, windows and roofs. The minimum depth between
the faces of the forward -most plane and the rear plane on the front
elevation shall be 10 feet and a plane must be a minimum of 30 square feet
to receive credit under this section.
5. Rear elevations shall adhere to the same criteria outlined in number 4
above for front elevations except that the minimum depth between front and
back planes on the rear elevation shall be 3 feet.
6. At least fifty percent (50%) of the units in a project with minimum 5'
sideyards shall have one side elevation where there are sufficient offsets
or cutouts so that the side yard setback averages a minimum of 7 feet from
the property line.

7. Projects with an average lot size of 5,000 sq. ft. or less shall limit the
number of units with three car garages to seventy-five percent (75%) of
the plans in the project. Project units with three car garages shall be
a mix of two door garages, three door garages, and offset (2 planes min.
12") two door garages.
8. Fifty percent (50%) of exterior openings for every dwelling unit
(doors/windows) shall be recessed or projected a minimum of 2" and shall
be with wood or colored aluminum window frames (no mill finishes).
9. Variety in roof framing direction shall be required.
10. All architecture shall abide by the design parameters identified in the
Aviara Design Manual.
11. Any changes or modification regarding these guidelines within Section 21.45
of the Carlsbad Municipal Code shall also be reflected in this Master Plan.
The predominant roof framing for each floor plan shall exhibit directional
variety to the other floor plans of the same project.
Notes: a) For the purpose of these guidelines a single story element
shall be defined as a plate line of 12 feet or less.
b) In addition, when a percentage of units is described in the
guidelines the intent is to have that percentage spread
throughout the entire project.
