The hotel would also incorporate architectural treatments using Lego themed materials. The 137,370 square foot three story hotel will have an articulated floor plan to create an interesting building form. The western end of the hotel is located at the east side of the existing pedestrian entry plaza to the park, with the bottom floor containing a retail shop, entry atrium, and restaurant with an outdoor dining area opening out onto the east side of the entry plaza. The hotel entrance and porte-cochere is located on the south side of the hotel. The pool and water play features would also be located on the southern side and easterly of the hotel entrance. A total of 254 hotel rooms would be located on all three floors. Four different room sizes (338 sq ft, 363 sq ft, 522 sq ft, and 591 sq ft.) are provided. The hotel is proposed to be built in two phases with 152 rooms in the first phase (69,848 sq ft) and 102 in the second phase (44,531 sq ft). Lego colors and materials are emulated throughout the building's design. The hotel exterior has a smooth white stucco finish with a soft yellow colored trim and profiled green roof tiles with exposed timber rafter tails. The middle portion of the building's southern elevation incorporates exterior covered decks with aluminum metal railings finished in black for 10 rooms. Seven of the lower floor rooms include an exterior open trellis feature. Twenty-one of the second and third story rooms without balconies will have Juliette balconies and decorative window awnings supported by corbels. The awnings will be of a plastic material and red, green, orange, yellow, or blue in color. The north building elevation includes 6 balconies and 22 Juliet balconies. The hotel entry and fa9ade are enhanced with additional Lego themed treatments. The porte cochere is attached to a freestanding Lego brick clock tower feature. The hotel elevations at the entry and restaurant side are embellished with additional Lego themed treatment of decorative columns, brise soleil (Sun shade for Atrium), and Lego themed architectural rooftop elements. Vehicular access to the hotel will primarily be from the main park entrance. Guests staying at the hotel will be directed to the hotel entry, then on to a separate 308 space parking lot which serves the hotel. A gate controlled entry from The Crossings Drive will only allow entry of already registered hotel guests, charter bus service to the hotel, and North County Transit to access the bus turnaround. The gate is located beyond (west of) the employee parking and service entrances, which are located off the Crossings Drive, so that employee and service access is unimpeded. The project application also includes the request to share parking between the uses within the theme park. Further discussion and analysis is provided in the body of this report. The project modifies the existing parking lot to reconfigure the existing handicapped parking area and relocates the bus and RV parking to the southwestern area of the parking lot as a result of the hotel project. The entire Legoland park area is roughly 128 acres in size. Planning Area 8 of the Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan, which is currently vacant and designated as Open Space, is located adjacent to the north, a resort/timeshare, which is under construction, is located to the northeast in Planning Area 5, and the Legoland Drive main entrance with Planned Industrial uses beyond are located to the west. SDP 96-14(C)/CDP 96-16(C) - LEGOLAND HOTEL CALIFORNIA September 16, 2009 Page 3 The original Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan (SP 207) was approved in 1993. The first amendment to the Specific Plan was to allow the Legoland theme park in 1996. There have been two other significant amendments for the development of the Museum of Making Music and the development of Planning Area 5 for the hotel/timeshare project. Most recently, the Specific Plan was amended to allow for the Legoland Inner park overnight stay program, the addition of the hotel use within Legoland, and modifications for the widening and turn lane for Palomar Airport Road. The Coastal Commission action is pending on these amendments and the project is recommended for approval subject to the Coastal Commission's approval of the Local Coastal Program Amendment. The Site Development Plan Amendment requires City Council approval because the height of the hotel exceeds 35 feet. Buildings are allowed up to three stories and 45 feet with City Council approval. Pursuant to Section 21.201.120(8), because the Site Development Plan Amendment requires City Council action, the Coastal Development Permit Amendment requires a recommendation from the Planning Commission to the City Council. IV. ANALYSIS The proposed project is subject to the following plans, ordinances and standards as analyzed within the following section of this staff report: A. General Plan Land Use Element -Travel Recreation/Commercial (TR) General Plan Land Use Designation; B. Commercial Tourist Zone - Qualified Development Overlay (C-T-Q) (Carlsbad Municipal Code Chapter 21.29); C. Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan (SP 207(E); D. Mello II Segment of the Local Coastal Program and Carlsbad Municipal Code, Chapter 21.203, the Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone; E. Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan for McClellan-Palomar Airport; F. Growth Management Ordinance (Local Facilities Management Plan Zone 13). The recommendation for approval of this project was developed by analyzing the project's consistency with the applicable regulations and policies. The project's compliance with each of the above regulations is discussed in detail in the sections below. A. General Plan The General Plan Land Use designation for Planning Area 4 of the Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan area is Travel Recreation/Commercial (TR). The TR designation allows uses such as visitor attractions and commercial uses that serve the travel and recreational needs of tourists, residents, and employees of the business and industrial centers. Such uses include hotels, restaurants, and specialty retail catering to tourist and recreation facilities. The Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan was recently revised (SP 207 (E)) to add hotel and associated hotel uses as allowed uses within Planning Area 4 of the Specific Plan. Hotel and associated uses to hotels are appropriate in the location proposed as they will serve the Legoland California Theme Park and are accessible from major circulation element roadways (Palomar Airport Road and Cannon Road). SDP 96-14(C)/CDP 96-16(C) - LEGOLAND HOTEL CALIFORNIA September 16,2009 Page 4 B. Tourist Commercial Zone - Qualified Development Overlay The project is within the Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan and all properties within Planning Area 4 (Legoland) are Zoned Tourist Commercial with the Qualified Development Overlay (CT-Q). The Qualified Development Overlay Zone requires the approval of a Site Development Plan. Development within the Specific Plan area is subject to the development standards of the Specific Plan rather than the City's Zoning Ordinance. The Specific Plan maps and text define the allowable type and intensity of land uses in each planning area and provides detailed development and design standards, requirements, development phasing and timing, and the method by which the Specific Plan will be implemented. The Specific Plan was recently amended to add hotel and accessory hotel uses to the allowed uses within Planning Area 4 of the Specific Plan as well as design guidelines for the hotel. Pursuant to the previously-approved Site Development Plan Resolution for SDP 96-14, any substantial amendments to the original Legoland SDP require the approval by the Planning Commission. A project which exceeds the 35 foot building height may be approved by the City Council, provided the building height does not exceed 45 feet, contain more than three stories, and the project has increased landscaped setbacks equal to the height increase. All improvements are associated with the existing Legoland theme park. As discussed below, all required SDP findings can be made. 1. That the requested use is properly related to the site, surroundings, and environmental settings; is consistent with the various elements and objectives of the General Plan; will not be detrimental to existing uses or to uses specifically permitted in the area in which the proposed use is to be located; and will not adversely impact the site, surroundings, or traffic circulation. The project is consistent with the various elements and objectives of the General Plan since the proposed project falls within an approved and amended Specific Plan (Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan), which was found to be consistent with the General Plan. The requested improvements are properly related to the site surroundings and the environmental setting in that the project design complies with the development standards (as discussed Section C below) and design requirements of the Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan. The design provisions of SP 207(E) requires the hotel to be located and oriented towards the main park entry, have an articulated design, and be constructed of durable, high quality building materials. The proposed hotel building articulates to form a shallow S-shape adjacent to the entry plaza of the park entrance. The hotel includes design elements such as a white stucco walls, balconies with metal railings, balcony covers, and a pitched roof design with a variety of roof lines constructed with a tile roof and exposed rafter tails. The roof has a green shade which blends with the other park buildings and landscaping. The building also incorporates Lego themed elements and figures. The project will provide adequate on and off-site access and parking. The location of the hotel will not disrupt the existing vehicular circulation on the site. Further, the proposed uses are compatible with the existing theme park recreation uses in the area; therefore, the adjacent properties will not be adversely impacted. SDP 96-14(C)/CDP 96-16(C) - LEGOLAND HOTEL CALIFORNIA September 16,2009 Page 5 2. That the site for the intended use is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the use. The subject site is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the proposed hotel and the proposed uses comply with the required development and design standards of the Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan and no variances to standards are proposed. The addition of the hotel, restaurant, and retail uses will increase the total Legoland Park building coverage up to 5.2% whereas 50% is allowed. The hotel site is conveniently located adjacent to the Legoland California Theme Park and convenient access and parking is provided. 3. That all yards, setbacks, walls, fences, landscaping, and other features necessary to adjust the requested use to existing or permitted future uses in the neighborhood will be provided and maintained. The site functions as a component of the Specific Plan's allowed commercial tourist serving uses. The project has been designed in accordance with all development and design standards of the Specific Plan; therefore, the project is compatible with the existing Legoland California Theme Park and potential future commercial tourist uses. Furthermore, the proposed hotel will be setback from the southern property line (abuts Palomar Airport Road) a minimum of 1,187 feet and adequate circulation, access aisles, parking spaces, and landscaping will be provided and maintained. The Legoland California Theme Park has previously requested structures over 35 feet in height and has accordingly provided the increased landscaped setbacks to allow buildings up to 45 feet in height. 4. That the street system serving the proposed use is adequate to properly handle all traffic generated by the proposed use. Primary access to the site will continue to be provided from Cannon Road. A small amount of traffic will be generated by the hotel use on Palomar Airport Road once guests have checked into the hotel and are provided access via the gate controlled entrance off The Crossings Drive. There are no near term traffic impacts within the project vicinity, but cumulative impacts to the intersection of Palomar Airport Road and Paseo Del Norte have been identified by 2030. The project has been conditioned to mitigate this future impact in the form of monetary contributions to road improvements which consist of a new right turn lane from eastbound Palomar Airport Road to southbound Paseo del Norte. As such, the street system serving the proposed use will be adequate to handle the increase in traffic generated by the proposed project. C. Specific Plan 207(H) The subject site is located within the boundaries of Specific Plan-207, Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan, which was originally approved in 1993. As demonstrated in Table 1 below, the proposed project is in compliance with the design guidelines and development standards contained in the Specific Plan. SDP 96-14(C)/CDP 96-16(C) - LEGOLAND HOTEL CALIFORNIA September 16, 2009 Page 6 TABLE 1 - SPECIFIC PLAN COMPLIANCE STANDARD Building Setbacks: Lego Drive Northeast boundary The Crossings Drive Palomar Airport Rd Building Height Building Coverage Architectural Design Roof Equipment Landscaping Service and Trash collection REQUIRED/ ALLOWED 50-foot minimum 3 5 -foot minimum 20-foot minimum 300-foot minimum 45' and three stories 50% Articulated building with stucco finish and roofing to blend with environment. Roof-mounted equipment shall be screened from view of adjacent properties and public streets. 5% minimum, exclusive of setback area Enclosed by 6-foot-high masonry wall with gates; shall be of similar colors to the project. PROPOSED/ PROVIDED 400 feet 35 feet (overall park setback) 730 feet 1,187 feet 45' and three stories 5.2% Articulated building around project entry plaza with stucco finish, complementary design elements and green shaded s-shaped tile roofing to blend with the theme park and landscaping. Roof equipment for hotel is proposed to be located in a mechanical well, behind the roof line. 50%, inclusive of setback area The existing Legoland Theme Park project includes a service yard with trash facilities that will service the hotel project. Although not required, the developer is requesting a 6% common parking reduction between the hotel and accessory uses and the theme park general parking. Common parking facilities may be provided in lieu of the individual requirements pursuant to Section 21.44.090 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code (Parking Ordinance), but such facilities shall be approved by the Planning Commission as to size, shape and relationship to business sites to be served, provided the total of such off-street parking spaces, when used together, shall not be less than the sum of the various uses computed separately. When the common parking facility occupies a site that is greater than five thousand square feet, then the parking requirements as specified in the Parking Ordinance for each of two or more participating buildings or uses may be reduced not more than 15% upon approval of development plans by the Planning Commission. The request to allow for the provision of common parking facilities is supported in that the location and site design of the Legoland theme park is wholly contained within its own development area and accessed from a common entry. There are multiple existing and proposed uses (park, hotel, restaurant and retail uses) within the Legoland California Theme Park that will have common customers and therefore use common parking facilities. Hotel guests will use the park, restaurant and retail and park guests will use the restaurants and retail. The 6% reduction would amount to 225 fewer parking spaces. The park would continue to have a surplus of 887 visitor parking spaces. These spaces would be used with the future expansion of the Legoland inner park. The latest inner park approval was for the overnight stay program, which was SDP 96-14(C)/CDP 96-16(C) - LEGOLAND HOTEL CALIFORNIA September 16, 2009 Page? determined to not increase the parking demand of the park. The overall parking demand and supply is shown in Table 2 below.

SDP 96-14(C)/CDP 96-16(C) - LEGOLAND HOTEL CALIFORNIA September 16, 2009 PageS D. Mello II Segment of the Local Coastal Program The project is consistent with the relevant policies of the Mello II Segment of the Local Coastal Program and the Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone. The Specific Plan implements the intent of the Travel/Recreation Commercial (TR) General Plan Land Use designation and TR Local Coastal Program Land Use designation. With regard to consistency with the Local Coastal Program, the Specific Plan is the implementing ordinance for the LCP. The proposed project will not result in any conflict with the provisions of the LCP. The proposed project is located on a previously developed site and will not affect any of the Mello II Land Use Policies related to grading, landscaping, erosion, steep slopes, landslides and slope instability, seismic hazards, erosion control practices, or removal of native vegetation. Additional Mello II Land Use Policies that are applicable to this site include Policy 1-1 Allowable Land Uses, Policy 2-2 Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan "Mixed-Uses" Development, Policy 6-5 Hotel-Motel rooms, Policy 7-10 Parking and Policy 8-5 Signage. The proposed project is consistent with Policy 1-1, allowable land uses, since the proposed addition of a hotel and hotel accessory uses is consistent with the specific list of allowed uses in the Specific Plan and the hotel is consistent with the General Plan and Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan as a Travel/Recreation Commercial Land Use. Policy 2-2 of the LCP provides conditional development standards for the Specific Plan area to preserve and protect agricultural uses. The proposed amendments would not affect the existing agricultural uses as the proposed improvements are within the Legoland Park area. Policy 6-5 addresses a need for additional hotel-motel rooms and visitor-serving commercial. One of the suggested locations is near 1-5 and Palomar Airport Road and the Legoland California Theme Park is located near this intersection. The Legoland California Theme Park is also adding retail and restaurant uses which are visitor serving facilities. Policy 7-10 addresses parking standards set forth in the Carlsbad Municipal Code. The parking generation rate for the theme park was established within the Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan. The park would still exceed the required parking for the proposed use. The proposed amendments would not affect Policy 8-5, since no modifications are proposed to the existing Sign Program. The project is recommended for approval subject to the California Coastal Commission approval of LCP A 08-01 for SP 207(H). SP 207(H) provides for the hotel, restaurant, and retail uses as a permitted use within the Legoland California Theme Park. E. Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan for McClellan-Palomar Airport The project site is located approximately one mile westerly of the airport and is within the Airport Influence Area for McClellan-Palomar Airport. The Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan, McClellan-Palomar Airport (ALUCP) identifies noise levels up to 68 CNEL could impact the site. While noise impacts are identified, the ALUCP indentifies that the interior noise levels would need to be attenuated to 45 CNEL for the hotel use and 50 CNEL for the restaurant and retail uses. Exterior noise levels are determined to be acceptable by the ALUCP for the proposed hotel land use. Mitigation measures have been added to the project to require interior noise level compliance prior to building permit issuance to ensure the noise levels are attenuated. Previous project approvals have required, and the developer has recorded, a "Notice Concerning Aircraft Environmental Impacts." On February 25, 2009, the Airport Land Use Commission issued a consistency determination and found the project conditionally consistent with the ALUCP, with sound attenuation from airport operations being the only condition. SDP 96-14(C)/CDP 96-16(C) - LEGOLAND HOTEL CALIFORNIA September 16,2009 Page 9 F. Growth Management Ordinance The proposed project is located within Local Facilities Management Zone 13. The proposed 254 unit hotel and accessory hotel uses does not impact public facilities, with the exception of traffic impacts which have been identified and mitigated through the funding of intersection improvements. The impacts on public facilities created by this project and compliance with the adopted performance standards are summarized below in Table 3.
