II. INTRODUCTION The above applications were not determined (split vote) at the Planning Commission meeting of February 19, 1997, and were continued to the meeting of March 19, 1997, at the applicant's request. During the meeting of February 19, 1997, several questions were raised by the Planning Commission. The following summarizes and provides a response to those questions. SDP 96-05/CUP 96-07/CDP >u-06 - CARL'S JR./GREEN BURRITO Dki/E-THRU RESTAURANT & SDP 90-05(B) - PRICE CLUB PROPERTY ADJUSTMENT MARCH 19, 1997 PAGE 2 III. CARL'S JR ISSUES Landscaping Q: Can more colorful trees be used along the Palomar Airport Road frontage? R: Applicant is studying alternatives. Evergreen Pear and Purple Plum have been suggested. Q: Should the proposed wall on the west boundary be a uniform height (currently shows 6' and 3')? R: Applicant has been requested to clarify what the final height will be. Land Use Q: Are there other sites in the area where drive-thru restaurants would be allowed? R: Drive-thru restaurants can be considered via a Conditional Use Permit on sites which are not zoned for residential development and which have an appropriate General Plan Designation. The Conditional Use Permit for the proposed Carl's Jr. site should be considered on its own merits. The Council determined the citywide issue of fast food use in a recent hearing. Council instructed staff to prepare a Zone Code Amendment which requires more stringent development standards together with a Conditional Use Permit. Q: Will the City have any liability connected with allowing this use to exit thru Price Club? R: Project conditions require submission of joint access easements and documents which absolve the City from liability. Traffic Q: Adopted EIR's and traffic studies show significant adverse traffic impacts to the Palomar Airport Road (PAR) and Paseo Del Norte (PDN) intersection at full buildout. How can a land use be approved which could add even more traffic to this intersection? R: The City of Carlsbad General Plan Update EIR 1994 (GPEIR) found that there would be circulation impacts to the PAR and PDN intersection (together with other City intersections) which at City buildout, would cause the intersection to function below the Growth Management acceptable LOS standard (LOS "D"). (Attachment 1) Even though the GPEIR of 1994 found that the LOS at this intersection would not meet City standards at buildout, a special legal "Statement" was made to allow development to continue which still would contribute additional traffic. The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) allows that a "Statement of Overriding Considerations" can be adopted as part of the approval of an EIR if it's considered that the benefits of future proposals outweigh the unavoidable adverse environmental impacts. The City Council adopted such a "Statement of Overriding SDP 96-05/CUP 96-07/CDP ^-06 - CARL'S JR./GREEN BURRITO Dki vE-THRU RESTAURANT & SDP 90-05(8) - PRICE CLUB PROPERTY ADJUSTMENT MARCH 19, 1997 PAGE 3 Considerations" for the 1994 General Plan Update EIR because it was decided that the benefits of developing the City in accordance with the land uses shown in the General Plan outweighed the unavoidable traffic impacts (Attachment 2). The 1994 GPEIR found that the main cause of future traffic congestion would be regional through traffic over which the City has no jurisdiction as opposed to being caused primarily by the development of land in Carlsbad. The City of Carlsbad General Plan Update EIR 1994 was a broad environmental analysis of the entire City and it contained general mitigation necessary for this kind of General Plan level document. After the adoption of the 1994 General Plan Update EIR a subsequent EIR and Facility Study were prepared as follows: 1. Zone 13 Local Facilities Management Plan, Oct. 1995 (Attachments 3) 2. Carlsbad Ranch EIR, Nov. 1995 (Attachments 4) These documents took a more detailed look at traffic impacts and mitigation in the area surrounding Carlsbad Ranch and Zone 13 (an area which includes the proposed Carl's Jr. site). This analysis was more focused than the 1994 General Plan EIR, which as noted above was intended to provide a more general picture of impacts and city-wide mitigation. Consistent with the prior 1994 General Plan EIR, both the above documents (1 & 2) found that the LOS at the PAR and PDN intersection at buildout would be not meet the growth management standard (even though the LOS on the PAR roadway segment would be acceptable). These documents, however, went on to propose detailed mitigation for the failure of the intersection by requiring the restriping of an additional lane for the westbound PAR approach to the northbound 1-5. This Mitigation Measure would ensure that the LOS at the PAR and PDN intersection at buildout would comply with the growth management standard (LOS "D"). Mitigation is currently proposed which would improve on the required restriping. The 1997 City Capital Improvement Program (CIP) currently includes a project to add a turn pocket to the westbound PAR approach to the northbound 1-5. This project has been designed by the City Engineering Department who are currently requesting approval from the Caltrans to begin construction in 1997. Construction of this turn pocket would go beyond the restriping only mitigation required by the Carlsbad Ranch EIR and Zone 13 Local Facilities Management Plan because it would facilitate better turning movements onto the freeway and it would add the extra striped right turn lane. Currently, if no additional roadway is added an acute turn would have to be made onto the northbound on-ramp from PAR. The additional turn pocket would alleviate this problem. This improvement would also ensure that the level of service at the PAR and PDN intersection is at an acceptable LOS ("D") at buildout. SDP 96-05/CUP 96-07/CDP _-06 - CARL'S JR./GREEN BURRITO DK, vE-THRU RESTAURANT & SDP 90-05(B) - PRICE CLUB PROPERTY ADJUSTMENT MARCH 19, 1997 PAGE 4 Summary. A "Statement of Overriding Considerations" was adopted by the City Council for the 1994 General Plan Update EIR. This "Statement" allows approval of development projects even if they will contribute additional traffic to intersections which do not meet the growth management LOS standard at buildout. Carl's Jr. would be such a project. Two later, more focused EIR's and traffic studies found that the congestion at the PAR and PDN intersection at buildout could be adequately mitigated by restriping a right turn lane from PAR onto the 1-5 north bound on-ramp. The City currently proposes a turn pocket and restriping of lanes which goes beyond the required mitigation of restriping of lanes alone. This mitigation will provide a LOS "D" at buildout for the PAR and PDN intersection to comply with the growth management standards for the City. Q: Isn't traffic circulation in this area already adversely impacted by peak use at the flower fields, LEGO and Price Club? R: It is true that all of those projects, along with all other traffic in the area, contribute to impacts. However, taken individually these uses have different peaks in their traffic generations. The cumulative impact has been addressed in the response immediately preceding this one. Q: What is the anticipated % of Carl's only patrons who will use Price Club access and egress to get to Carl's? How many existing Price Club customers are expected to also use Carl's. R: Response to this is referred to the applicant. Staff does not have any data to base an answer. Q: Is the proposed access thru Price Club safe? Will Price Club's general on-site circulation be impeded by the addition of this thru traffic? Will pedestrians be endangered? Will maneuvering cars into parking spaces impede the free flow of this thru traffic? Is it a good idea to have a use such as Carl's exit thru another site (i.e. Price Club). R: This proposed use is not significantly different than the existing Poinsettia Plaza project. In order to access the El Polio Loco or Jack in the Box, traffic must drive through the Poinsettia Plaza parking lot and down aisles that have vehicles pulling in and out of parking spaces as well as pedestrians randomly walking through the parking lot. In contrast, the Carl's Jr. access is down an aisle, on the Price Club property, that has no parking spaces on it. The pedestrians crossing that access aisle, are directed to defined point of intersection with the aisle. Q: What are the existing traffic counts for Price Club? Do these exceed the projected ADT for this site? R: The projected ADT for the Price Club was 7911 ADT. The City has not taken any traffic counts specifically for the Price Club site, however the applicant may have some information.

What is the anticipated % of patrons using sit down? R: Staff has no information on this and refers it to the applicant for response. Q: What is the existing Nurseryland trip generation? What is the proposed Carl's trip generation? R: The city does not monitor traffic counts for individual sites. However, using the SANDAG trip generating tables, the projected ADT would be 560. The projected ADT for Carl's Jr. is 2145. Q: Will there be adverse impacts on Armada/PAR intersection as a result of this proposal? What will LOS be before and after development? R: The applicant may have updated information on this. The studies that the city has indicates LOS A in both AM and PM peaks. This information was from the last study of that specific intersection in 1995. The projected LOS at buildout from the same study shows an AM LOS A and a PM LOS D (V/C=0.81). Q: Will there be adverse effects to the Price Club site from traffic moving through the site from the Armada/PAR intersection with Carl's as its destination? R: No adverse effects are expected because of the review and design of the Price Club site to accommodate this use. Q: When will Cannon Road and Poinsettia-Aviara Parkway be constructed. What effect will construction of these streets have on PAR and its intersections?. R: Cannon Road from Car Country Drive to El Camino Real (ECR) is projected to be constructed in 2-5 years. Aviara Parkway from Palomar Airport Road (PAR) to Poinsertia is projected to be constructed in 18 months to 3 years. A study was done looking at the with and without Cannon Road impact for PAR intersections. At PAR and Paseo del Norte (PDN) the change in AM LOS from (V/C=0.74) C to (0.79) C and PM LOS from (0.83) D to (0.84) D. At PAR and the Price Club intersection the change in AM LOS was from (0.45) A to (0.51) A and PM LOS from (0.67) C to (0.75) C. Q: Are there any problems with the design of Carl's access/egress? Will turning movements into the site impede traffic on PAR? Will turning movements out of the site impede traffic on PAR? Is adequate deceleration space available for Carl's? Will the proposed Carl's access design interfere with the existing deceleration lane to Price Club (given there will be more ADT then Nurseryland)? R: By reducing the number of driveways on PAR and moving the proposed driveway further away from PDN the roadway service level is enhanced. By increasing the number of vehicles using the proposed driveway on PAR the operation of the through lane adjacent to the frontage may be impacted.

Is "worst fear" condition of too little stacking space a scenario which is likely to occur often? What is typical Engineering Dept. standard for stacking? Does this project comply with this standard? R: The typical requirement for stacking that the city uses is three vehicles between the pick- up window and the order board and four vehicles from the order board to the parking lot. This project exceeds that requirement by one and two vehicles, respectively. No adverse impact is expected with the proposed design. Q: What types of onsite signs will be required/provided and what will they say? (e.g. "Stop", "Exit" etc.) R: Directional signage was discussed at the last meeting and the applicant is expected to provide an exhibit incorporating those discussions. Q: Review the potential public street circulation patterns for Carl's Jr. Are the circulation patterns acceptable? R: Review the potential public street circulation patterns for Carl's Jr. may be addressed further by the applicant. Staff believes the general traffic circulation is adequate. Q: What is LOS and how is it used in project analysis? R: Please see Attachment 5 Q: Is the access drive to Carl's too close to the PAR/PDN intersection? Are there any City spacing standards for such driveways and do they apply in this situation? R: PAR is a prime arterial roadway. The city standard requires intersections to be 2600 feet apart. The existing Nurseryland driveways do not meet this requirement. These standards do not apply in these cases because of property rights issues. Because the Nurseryland property has two existing driveways on PAR and no other frontage on a publicly dedicated road, the property right of access to PAR cannot be ignored Q: What is the required unimpeded sight distance from the Carl's driveway? What is the provided unimpeded sight distance from the Carl's driveway? What is the maximum design speed this sight distance would accommodate? R: The required intersection sight distance is 550 feet. The proposed sight distance exceeds this significantly because of the lack of significant horizontal or vertical roadway changes. The maximum design speed for the posted speed limit of forty-five miles per hour is 490 feet. Q: What is the speed limit on PAR adjoining Carl's? R: The measured critical speed is fifty MPH which requires the stated 550 foot sight distance.

Q: How will the addition of more lanes from PAR to the northbound on-ramp of 1-5 relieve congestion at the PAR/PDN intersection? When will this work be completed? Can the City require this on-ramp work to be completed as a condition of approval? R: The PAR/PDN LOS is B for both AM and PM. Initial observation of this intersection during peak hours would not suggest these levels of service. This is because the LOS at the 1-5 northbound ramp from PAR has a PM LOS of E. The poor LOS at the ramp causes traffic to back up through the PAR/PDN intersection. This is what causes the observed poor performance of the intersection and not the failure of the intersection to handle the traffic. Therefore, with the improved flow of traffic through the I-5/PAR intersection an improvement in the flow of traffic through the PAR/PDN intersection will be observed. Since any improvement to the 1-5 ramp requires CAL-TRANS approval a definite date for completion can not be made. The city is pursuing the construction of improvements with CAL-TRANS and is prepared to start construction next year. There is precedence in conditioning this type of improvement. Q: Is the restriping a condition of the Carlsbad Ranch project? R: Yes Q: Who will pay for the turn pocket and restriping? Shouldn't this be the Carlsbad Ranch developers? R: Because the work requires approval from CAL-TRANS the work is proposed to be done by the city using funds available from the 1-5 interchange work. EXHIBITS: 1.

Planning Commission Staff Report, dated February 19, 1997. FINAL MASTER CITY OF CARLSBAD ; Environmental bnp»t* Report Peak hour turning movement volumes were modeled for all major circulation element intersections to calculate intersection peak hour levels of service for more than 60 intersections in Carlsbad. Assuming General Plan roadway configuration, 20 intersections were identified as not meeting Growth Management standards (LOS C during off peak hours and LOS D during peak hours). The levels of service used to determine impacts are generally more conservative than levels of service used in surrounding cities. As a result, the impact conclusions might not have been as severe if more typical standards were used. The 20 impacted intersections were then analyzed assuming the addition of turn lanes to determine required mitigation measures to allow the intersections to meet standards. Even with the implementation of improvements such as additional turn lanes, additional traffic signals, and road and ramp widening proposed in the TIF report, a number of intersections are projected to fail the adopted Growth Management performance standards at buifdout of the City. They generally include ail freeway interchange areas and major intersections along Carlsbad Boulevard. However, more detailed analysis revealed that more than 50 percent of the projected Carlsbad Boulevard traffic volumes are the result of the diversion of regional traffic from Interstate 5 due to projected traffic congestion on the freeway. Structural mitigation for these projected intersection failures is not feasible from an economic or traffic engineering standpoint. In many cases existing improvements limit the City's ability to acquire additional right-of-way. With the adoption of the Citywide Facilities and Improvements Plan it was recognized that there might be certain intersections which would fail to meet the adopted performance standard and over which the City does not have jurisdictional control and therefore, would not halt development because of this condition. The diversion of regional through traffic from a failing Interstate or State Highway onto City streets would qualify as not being within the jurisdictional control of the City. The City may be able to fully or partially mitigate these failures by aggressive pursuit of the implementation of an effective regional program of Transportation Demand Management (TDM) and alternative mass transit services. Evaluation of the adequacy of the Circulation Element involved comparisons of projected peak hour traffic volumes against planned roadway capacity for circulation roadway segments and intersections. The study confirmed that, when fully constructed, the Circulation Element roadway segments will be adequate to accommodate buildout traffic. Peak hour turning movement volumes were modelled for all major circulation element intersections to calculate intersection peak hour levels of service for more than sixty intersections in Carlsbad. Assuming General Plan roadway configurations, twenty intersections were identified as not meeting Growth Management standards. These intersections were then analyzed assuming the addition of turn_ lanes to determine required mitigation measures to allow the intersections to meet standards. Even with the implementation of the improvements proposed in the TIF report, a number of intersections are projected to fail the adopted Growth Management performance standards at buildout of the City. These intersections are shown in Map 5.7-7: Impacted Intersections. They generally include alj_ freeway interchange areas and major intersections along Carlsbad Boulevard. However, more detailed analysis revealed that more than fifty percent of the projected Carlsbad Boulevard traffic volumes are the result of the diversion of regional traffic from Interstate 5 due to projected traffic congestion on the freeway. The traffic studies referenced in this EIR are available for public review in the City See Sec. 9.0: Engineering Department. Response 4C Planned development in North County, including Carlsbad, will generate freeway trips that could Sec Sec. 9.0. significantly impact operation of on/off ramps. The significant impact can be mitigated by continued ResP°nse 4A participation in regional transportation programs (such as the Congestion Management Program) and coordination with CalTrans.

Public Resources Code Section 21081(c). As discussed above, the Final MEIR 4 concludes that development of the project as proposed would result in significant, unmitigated cumulative impacts to air quality and circulation. 5 However, pursuant to Public Resources Codes Section 21081 (c), the decisionmakers find that none of the project alternatives, as analyzed in 6 Table 2.0-2 of Master EIR 93-01, reduce the impacts to air quality and „ circulation to less than significant because the primary sources of impacts are regionally generated and not within the jurisdiction of the City to control. 8 STATEMENT OF OVERRIDING CONSIDERATIONS: 9 Section 15093 of the CEOA Guidelines10 , , The decision makers, having reviewed and considered the information contained in the Final MEIR, and having reviewed and considered the public record, find that the following 12 factors support approval of the project despite any significant impacts identified in the Final MEIR and, therefore, make the following Statement of Overriding Considerations. 13 The City of Carlsbad finds that the mitigation measures discussed in the CEQA findings and the Final MEIR (EIR 93-01), when implemented, avoid or substantially lessen most of the significant effects identified in the MEIR. Nonetheless, certain significant effects of the project on AIR QUALITY and CIRCULATION are unavoidable even after incorporation of 16 ! all feasible mitigation measures such as those listed in Section 5.3-1, Air Quality, and Section 5.7-1, Circulation of Master EIR 93-01. The impacts to Air Quality and Circulation are regional issues which require regional solutions and are beyond the jurisdiction of the City to control. The City has included text, and numerous programs and policies which acknowledge the City's responsibility and willingness to participate in regional efforts to 19 resolve these issues. The City required an Updated General Plan which reflects the current goals of the community and recognizes the quality of life standards that are fundamental 20 to the citizens of Carlsbad. The benefits of adopting the Updated General Plan outweigh the incremental contribution to regional Air Quality and Circulation impacts. {Zt .L I .^^^•B 22 Conditions: 23 1.

The intersection of Cannon Road/El Camino Real is assumed to be signalized and improved to the level described under the Year 2000 scenario conditions with Cannon Road extended. As shown above, in addition to the assumed improvements five intersections are anticipated to require mitigation to operate at acceptable levels at build out.

Based on the development phasing of the zone, this improvement would be needed in 1998. • Paseo del Norte & Cannon Road - The southbound approach (SDG&E driveway) should be constructed and striped as follows: one exclusive left-turn lane, one shared through/right-turn lane, and one exclusive right-turn lane. In addition, the eastbound Cannon Road approach would require an additional left-turn lane. The resulting lane configuration in the eastbound direction would be two exclusive left-turn lanes, one through lane, and one through/right turn lane. Also, at a point east of the intersection, an additional westbound Cannon Road through lane would be required. At the intersection, this would result in the following lane configuration in the westbound direction: one exclusive left-turn lane, two through lanes, and a shared through/right-turn lane. With the implementation of these improvements, the intersection would operate at acceptable levels of service. Based on the development phasing of the zone, this improvement would be needed at Buildout conditions. • Paseo del Norte & Palomar Airport Road - Restripe the northbound and southbound Paseo del Norte approaches to provide the following: two exclusive left-turn lanes, one shared through/right-turn lane, and one exclusive right-turn lane. With the implementation of this improvement, the intersection would operate at acceptable levels of service. Based on the development phasing of the zone, this improvement would be needed at Buildout conditions. • El Camino Real & Cannon Road - Restripe the southbound El Camino Real approach for the following: one left-turn lane, two through lanes, one shared through/right-turn lane, and one exclusive right-turn lane. In addition, provide an exclusive right-turn lane on the eastbound Cannon Road approach. With the implementation of this improvement, the intersection would operate at acceptable levels of service. Based on the development phasing of the zone, this improvement would be needed in 2006. • El Camino Real & Palomar Airport Road - Restripe the northbound El Camino Real approach for the following: one left-turn lane, two through lanes, one shared through/right-turn lane, and one exclusive right-turn lane. With the implementation of this improvement, the intersection would operate at acceptable levels of service. Based on the development phasing of the zone, this improvement would be needed in 2008. The improvements and the resulting lane configurations at the impacted locations are illustrated in Appendix A. EFFECT OF MITIGATION MEASURES With the implementation of the suggested improvements, the impacted locations would be mitigated to acceptable levels. Table 9 summarizes the effects of the proposed mitigation 43 ATTACHMENT 3 this EIR require the provision of a shuttle for all specific plan land uses which reduce the project's contribution to the overall demand on beach parking. Parking The parking standards and parking ratios provided in the specific plan are consistent with the minimum parking standards of the City. Because the City does not have a parking standard for a themepark or equivalent use, the potential parking needs of the LEGOLAND Carlsbad were assessed by Kaku and Associates. Based on the proposed parking plan of 3,500 visitor parking spaces, it was determined that this supply would be sufficient to meet the projected parking demand for the Year 2000 conditions. Under buildout conditions an overflow parking lot is proposed which would provide an additional 1,150 parking spaces. The proposed parking supply including the overflow lot will be sufficient to meet the demand projected for buildout conditions. These parking estimates are based on a conservative approach to determine the peak demand. That is, these projections are based on attendance levels on the busiest weekday and weekend day of the busiest month of the year. As these projections are evaluated over time, the actual parking patterns will determine the need for the overflow parking lot under the buildout conditions. No impact to parking is anticipated. MITIGATION MEASURES 1. The following mitigation measures shall be implemented to reduce significant impacts on two intersections under the Year 2000 conditions and seven intersections under Buildout conditions to a level of less than significant. The recommended street improvements and their phasing, based on ultimate buildout conditions, are as follows: 1997 1-5 Northbound Ramps & Palomar Airport Road (CMP Location) - Restripe the westbound Palomar Airport Road approach for the following: two through lanes, one shared through/right-turn lane, and one exclusive right turn lane. 2000 1-5 Northbound Ramps & Cannon Road (CMP Location^ - Restripe the westbound Cannon Road approach for the following: one through lane, one shared through/right-turn lane, and one exclusive right-turn lane. 2006 El Camino Real & Cannon Road (CMP Location*! - Restripe the southbound El Camino Real approach for the following: one left-turn lane, two through lanes, one snared through/right-turn lane, and one exclusive right-turn lane.

RECOMMENDATION That the Planning Commission ADOPT Planning Commission Resolution No. 4061 APPROVING the Negative Declaration for SDP 96-05/CUP 96-07/CDP 96-06 and ADOPT Planning Commission Resolutions No. 4062, 4063, 4064 and 4065 APPROVING Site Development Plan SDP 96-05, Conditional Use Permit CUP 96-07, Coastal Development Permit CDP 96-06 and SDP 90-05(B), respectively, based on the findings and subject to the conditions contained therein. II. INTRODUCTION This application is a request for a drive-thru restaurant and related parking and landscaping for a site on Palomar Airport Road (PAR) as shown on the attached Location Map. The site is located at 925 Palomar Airport Road which is currently occupied by "NurseryLand" (a retail nursery use). A portion of existing Price Club owned property adjacent and to the east is proposed to be transferred to the Carl's Jr./Green Burrito project for parking spaces, landscaping and secondary access. Specifically, the proposal requests to demolish the existing nursery, and to construct a 3,086 square foot restaurant with an outdoor eating area and a drive-thru lane with related landscaping, parking spaces, setback areas, circulation aisles and a trash enclosure. An amendment to the SDP 96-05/CUP 96-07/CDP > - 06 - CARL'S JR./GREEN BURRITO Dk, v E-THRU RESTAURANT & SDP 90-05(B) - PRICE CLUB PROPERTY ADJUSTMENT FEBRUARY 19,1997 PAGE 2 Price Club site development plan is required to formally remove approximately 14, 740 sq. ft. of property, and transfer it to enlarge the proposed Carl's Jr./Green Burrito property. Staff has reviewed the proposal and all the required findings of approval can be made. Required Entitlements and Project Exhibits The land use designations on the site are as follows: Local Coastal Program - Travel Service Commercial (T-S); General Plan - Travel-Recreation Commercial (T-R); Zoning - Commercial- Tourist with the Qualified Development Overlay Zone (CT-Q). A restaurant is allowed by the underlying CT zoning designation; a site development plan (SDP) is required by the Q overlay. The Q overlay is intended to bring out the highest quality development possible while maintaining compatibility with adjacent existing and future permitted land uses. The conditional use permit (CUP) is to allow the drive-thru lane component and a coastal development permit (CDP) is required because of the coastal zone location of the project. To accommodate the Price Club property adjustment, an amendment to the existing Price Club SDP is being processed (SDP 90-05(B)). The Carl's Jr./Green Burrito project site plan, elevations, floor plans, roof plans, landscape plans, water conservation plan, grading concept plan and sign program are shown, respectively, on Exhibits "A" - "L" dated February 19,1997. The Price Club property adjustment is reflected on Exhibit "X" dated February 19,1997. III. PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND This project involves the development of a 3,064 square foot restaurant building with approximately 215 square feet of outdoor eating area. The overall height of the restaurant structure will be 18 feet to the parapet with a vertical tower projection to 25 feet. The contemporary architectural style features mission tile roofing, variety in roofline, white stucco walls with architectural details including cornices and reveals, and storefront wood framing around the windows. A 10 car deep drive-thru lane that will not conflict with internal circulation or adversely affect the PAR street system is proposed. Extensive landscaping and the use of screen walls are also proposed primarily to landscape the setback and to adequately screen all parking areas and the drive-thru lane. The subject site, with frontage on the scenic highway of PAR, serves as a gateway to the City's industrial and office corridor and airport area which highlights the need for visually sensitive architecture and site design. During the review, a variety of revisions were made to the project to respond to this objective. Because of the prominence of this site, staff has attached Exhibit "Z" to this report, entitled "Summary of Project's Design Revisions", which itemizes the specific changes made to improve this project as it underwent staff analysis and review. SDP 96-05/CUP 96-07/CDP>v,-06 - CARL'S JR./GREEN BURRITO Dki ^E-THRU RESTAURANT & SDP 90-05(B) - PRICE CLUB PROPERTY ADJUSTMENT FEBRUARY 19, 1997 PAGE 3 A playground structure was initially proposed with this project, however, it was eliminated in response to the visual concerns of a brightly colored apparatus reaching up to 15 feet in height and located adjacent to the scenic highway of Palomar Airport Road. A project condition specifically prohibits the construction, erection, placement or use of any type of playground apparatus in the future. An amendment to the existing Price Club Site Development Plan is necessary to exclude property currently from the Price Club Site Development Plan and make it available to the Carl's Jr./Green Burrito project. This is being processed concurrently. As shown on the Carl's Jr. exhibits as well as Exhibit "X" dated February 19, 1997 for SDP 90-05 (B), an area of approximately 14,740 sq. ft. is proposed for transfer from the Price Club project into the Carl's Jr./Green Burrito project. This is necessary because the Carl's Jr./Green Burrito project is proposing to locate some of its required parking spaces into this area. Thirty-three parking spaces are required based on the total square footage of outdoor eating/restaurant space. Of the 33 required spaces, 25 are provided on the existing nursery lot; the balance of 8 required spaces will be provided on the Price Club transfer piece. The transfer piece is designed to provide 22 parking spaces so that the project will have 14 spaces more than is required. The project has been conditioned such that, prior to building permit issuance, an adjustment plat shall be submitted and approved by the City Engineer to include the Price Club portion into the Carl's Jr./Green Burrito lot. To the east of the site an internal access road will connect with the Price Club thereby allowing traffic from the Price Club to access the Carl's site without using Palomar Airport Road. To the north of the site across Palomar Airport Road is the location of the Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan area and Flower Fields. Directly to the west of the site is the existing "7-11" building and related commercial uses. To the south is the Caltrans maintenance yard. All of the required SDP, CUP and CDP findings can be made for this project. Staff is recommending approval of the Carl's Jr./Green Burrito project (and related Price Club property adjustment project) as presented and conditioned. Applicable Regulations The proposed Carl's Jr./Green Burrito project (SDP 96-05/CUP 96-07/CDP 96-06) is subject to the following regulations: A. CT-Q Zone/Site Development Plan (Chapters 21.29 and 21.06 of the CMC); B. Conditional Use Permit Regulations (Chapter 21.42 of the CMC); C. Mello II Segment of the City's Local Coastal Program; and D. Growth Management (Chapter 21.90 of the CMC). The proposed Price Club Property Adjustment project (SDP 90-05(B)) is subject to the following regulations: A. C-2-Q Zone/Site Development Plan (Chapters 21.28 and 21.06 of the CMC); SDP 96-05/CUP 96-07/CDP ..-06 - CARL'S JR./GREEN BURRITO Dkx v E-THRU RESTAURANT & SDP 90-05(B) - PRICE CLUB PROPERTY ADJUSTMENT FEBRUARY 19, 1997 PAGE 4 B. Mello II Segment of the City's Local Coastal Program; and C. Growth Management (Chapter 21.90 of the CMC). The Analysis section below has two sections: Carl's Jr. and Price Club adjustment analysis. IV. ANALYSIS ANALYSIS FOR THE CARL'S JR. PROJECT - SDP 96-05/CUP 96-07/CDP 96-06 A. CT-Q Commercial Tourist-Qualified Overlay Zone/Site Development Plan CT-O Zone The site's underlying zoning designation of CT (Commercial-Tourist) allows restaurants as an outright permitted use. Section 21.29.050 (5) of the Commercial-Tourist chapter of the Zoning Ordinance allows restaurants that provide drive-thru business with the approval of a conditional use permit. The Qualified (Q) overlay requires a site development plan to be approved in implementing the CT zone. The appropriate applications have been submitted to the City. All applicable findings can be made and applicable standards are complied with, resulting in staffs recommendation of approval. Site Development Plan Findings All the required site development plan findings can be made and are contained in Planning Commission Resolution No. 4062 for SDP 96-05. A descriptive summary of the findings is provided below. The proposed drive-thru restaurant use is consistent with the site's land use designations and will not be detrimental to existing or permitted uses in the area which includes a variety of motels, restaurants and other uses geared towards the traveling public. The use has been designed to be properly related to the site which can accommodate the design requirements of this use while complying with applicable standards and policies. Setbacks, screen wall and landscaping are used in combination to adequately screen the use and drive-thru lane. The project will contribute approximately 2,145 average daily trips (ADT) to the prime arterial of Palomar Airport Road which is designed for greater than 40,000 ADT. The proposed use will provide a commercial- tourist serving use which will be used by the growing numbers of tourists to the City as well as employees and residents from the area. B. Conditional Use Permit - CUP 96-07 - Carl's Jr./Green Burrito A conditional use permit is required for the drive-thru lane component of the project. All the required CUP findings can be made and are contained in Planning Commission Resolution No. 4063 for CUP 96-07. A descriptive summary of the findings is provided below: SDP 96-05/CUP 96-07/CDP >^-06 - CARL'S JR./GREEN BURRITO DKi vE-THRU RESTAURANT & SDP 90-05(B) - PRICE CLUB PROPERTY ADJUSTMENT FEBRUARY 19, 1997 PAGES The drive-thru component of the requested use is necessary and desirable for the development of the community by providing an element of vehicular convenience to a restaurant use on a site intended to serve the traveling public. The drive-thru lane will not be detrimental to adjacent uses since it will be adequately screened, designed to allow for efficient on-site vehicular circulation and is supported by the Engineering Department since up to ten cars can be stacked waiting for service without impacting on-site circulation or PAR. The drive-thru lane will be extensively screened by landscaping (with up to thirteen 24 inch box screening specimens) and screen walls. It will be a feature of the project that will be visually and functionally compatible with adjacent existing future permitted uses. Since a conditional use permit is involved, project aspects such as screening, landscaping and on-going adequate traffic circulation are all subject to the CUPs annual review and continuous monitoring efforts to ensure long term land use compatibility. C. Local Coastal Program - Carl's Jr./Green Burrito The site is located in the coastal zone of the City and specifically within the Mello II Local Coastal Program (LCP) Segment. The project is consistent with, and in compliance with, the Mello II LCP segment. The coastal land use designation for the site is Travel-Service (T-S) Commercial. The proposed use of a drive-thru restaurant directly implements this designation which primarily is intended to provide commercial uses for the traveling public. Redevelopment of this site with the proposed use will not impact any coastal resource or access situation. As required by the applicable Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone, all drainage impacts have been designed to be adequately handled by implementing the City's Master Drainage Plan and related pollutant runoff control measures. A Coastal Development Permit (CDP 96-06) is required with this project and is being processed concurrently with this entitlement package. D. Growth Management - Carl's Jr./Green Burrito This project, proposed for a site intended for tourist-serving commercial uses, will not impact any projected public facility or service requirements anticipated for the area. Specifically, the project will not impact any of the provisions of the Local Facilities Management Plan (LFMP) for Zone 3 as provided by the City's Growth Management Ordinance. Attached to this report is a summary of the applicable impacts to public facilities and services (Facilities Impact Assessment Form). No adverse impacts to such services are anticipated from the proposed use which implements the site's General Plan, LCP and zoning designations, as well as the corresponding LFMP. SDP 96-05/CUP 96-07/CDP ^-06 - CARL'S JR./GREEN BURRITO DK, vE-THRU RESTAURANT & SDP 90-05(B) - PRICE CLUB PROPERTY ADJUSTMENT FEBRUARY 19, 1997 PAGE 6 ANALYSIS FOR PRICE CLUB PROPERTY ADJUSTMENT - SDP 90-05(B) The following analysis relates only to the portion of the Price Club property which is proposed to be transferred to Carl's Jr. A. C-2-Q General Commercial-Qualified Overlay Zone/Site Development Plan C-2-Q Zone The site's C-2 zoning allows a full range of commercial uses, however, the subject site is part of the Price Club setback area and will not support commercial buildings or development. As shown on Exhibit "X" for SDP 90-05 (B), the subject area is part of the western flag portion of the irregularly shaped Price Club property and will be strictly regulated to only allow parking, landscaped areas, circulation aisles and setback areas. The Qualified (Q) Overlay Zone requires that a site development plan be processed prior to or concurrent with any entitlement. Since a site development plan already covers the subject area, an amendment to that existing entitlement is required and proposed (SDP 90-05(B)). The original Price Club, SDP 90-05 was amended in 1995 via SDP 90-05(A) for an expansion area. Site Development Plan Findings All the required site development plan findings can be made and are contained in Planning Commission Resolution No. 4065 for SDP 90-05(B). A descriptive summary of the findings is provided below. The proposed property line adjustment will not affect the General Plan or be detrimental to existing or future permitted land uses since only the allowed uses of parking, landscaping and vehicular access will be proposed for the purpose of constructing the Carl's Jr./Green Burrito project. The property adjustment will accommodate a previously required 30 foot access easement and allow for all the Carl's Jr./Green Burrito improvements to be located on one lot. The second access to the Price Club will provide an alternative for the Carl's users which will reduce the demand on the PAR access point provided by Carl's. B. Local Coastal Program - Price Club Property Adjustment The existing Price Club site development plan was required to obtain a coastal development permit from the California Coastal Commission because of its coastal zone location. This existing coastal permit can only be legally amended by the Coastal Commission. Therefore, a project condition for SDP 90-05 (B) will be to obtain an amendment to the existing Price Club coastal development permit from the Coastal Commission prior to any building permit issuance for the Carl's Jr./Green Burrito restaurant structure. SDP 96-05/CUP 96-07/CDP , J6 - CARL'S JR./GREEN BURRITO Dlv.. E-THRU RESTAURANT & SDP 90-05(6) - PRICE CLUB PROPERTY ADJUSTMENT FEBRUARY 19, 1997 PAGE? C. Growth Management - Price Club Property Adjustment Since this entitlement only involves the removal of property of from one entitlement to another, it will not affect the allocation or demand of public services and/or facilities per the Zone 3 LFMP. The proposed property adjustment will not create any impacts to Zone 3 and therefore this project (SDP 90-05(B)) does not contain a calculation of the impacts made to facilities and services (no Facilities Impact Assessment Form). Because of the lack of impacts, this project does not adversely impact the Zone 3 LFMP and is therefore consistent with the City's Growth Management Program. V. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW Environmental review for this project was performed and determined that no significant environmental impacts will result from the approval of the requested project. The project design and conditions of approval will reduce significant impacts to visual aesthetics, drainage/urban pollutants, circulation and land use compatibility. In addition this project qualifies as a Subsequent Project as described in the Master Environmental Impact Report (MEIR) for the 1993 General Plan Update. There will be no additional significant effect not analyzed therein and no new or additional mitigation measures or alternatives are required since all feasible mitigation measures or alternatives identified in the MEIR which are appropriate to this Subsequent Project have been incorporated. A Negative Declaration has been prepared for Planning Commission approval. The Negative Declaration was noticed for a 30 day public review period on November 8, 1996. No comments were received during the public comment period. SDP 90-05(B) - Price Club Property Adjustment Since this entitlement only involves the removal of property from one entitlement to another, it qualifies for a categorical exemption under the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Class 5, categorical exemptions (Section 15305). A Notice of Exemption will be filed after project approval in accordance with Section 15374 of CEQA. ATTACHMENTS: 1. Planning Commission Resolution No. 4061 2.
