FAUL SWIRSKY, stated he was the attorney for the Carlibad MunScipal Wzter District, and sane time ago the City Atto4ney appeared before their board and requested a reduction in the water rates to the City. At that time the City Attorney <as informed thrt at the time the budget was being cdnsideredlthss matter would be taken up. In going over the budget it is! feasible to adjust the water rates. They are willing to i reduce gross cost to the City by 5%. However, there is a: problem in the design of the City water system. They pro: posed that the City install five regulatory water meters ; on their lines. Also if the City could use more Coloradoj River water a reduction in cost could be made. t I It was tne decision of the Council that a committee, consist- ing of the City Manager, City Attorney and the Finance i Director meet with the representatives of the Municipal : Water District to discuss this matter further and rEport i back to the Council. JACK KUBoTh stated that ?Le Presidznir of the Carlsbad Lions Club, Don Hol!;~, asked that he appear in behalf i oli the Lions C:I.!FJ in regards to the trees that are to be i rrxwed on rilestnut Avenue.

The I I City Attorney informed the Council it would be up to the contractor, and he would have to ask his permission. ; JOHN McWIG stated the Rotary Club had the same id&, and ! they would like some for the city, high school and Tri-Ci4y Hospital.

As far as the zoning is concerned; Mr. Briggs has not complied with the zoning ordinance. Tte property owners in the area believe this type of improve-: ment would be injurious to the general welfare of the Comf munity, Section 1802 of Article 18 of the Zoning Brdinanee was reviewed, which section sets forth the required showibg for variances.

A traffic count was made by Mr. dnd Mrs. Grober during the busy hours of the day and one car i per minute passes their hwle during these hours, Article 18, Section 1801 was again referleed to by Mr. Luth, pointing out that the sole purpose of a variance i shall be to prevent discrimination, and no variance shalf: be granted which would have the effect of granting a spe4ial privilege not shared by other property owners. Mr. Luth : informed the Council a friend, who is an architect and b4ild- er was kind enough to core down and look over the propcrtiy in question, and it was his opinion that nothing could bq built on this property which would blend in wjth the exislt- ing homes - only Cliff Dweller type homes ccruld be constx$xted; I I I I I I I 1 I I F I I 4 t I I I t ;p;i ::I:: i:::: 1;;:; :::;; ::::: ;::;; 1:::; ::::: :;: If ;i::: 1:::: i:i$ I:::, ;at+; $:;I ;::I: :It:: ,:;:a ;::I' :I::; *: !I111 i;:i; tt'l: l:;ll ;tl;l 104; ;::I: :;I:: lf*l ::::: ;I:::' I::&:: :;;::: 1 1;;; ;;:;1; ;l;l:l I;@:*: :;I::; ;;!;;; :;;:;; :;:::; ::I::: iIlii! ;l:l l:;::l t: :t4;: ;:!:;I ;::;q ::I::: :!:::: ;: 1:;:: ; 1' I B B I I I .I I I I I I I I 1 I +-"" I I I 4 I I I I I I I I I I I 1 I I I 1 I I I I 1 I I I I I I I I I 8 I 1 I I I I 1 I I I I I 3 I I + I f I I I I I I I I I 1 I I I 1 I I I t I 1 I I I I I I I I i I 1 I I I I 1 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I 1 I I I I I t I i I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I 1 I I I 1 I I I I I t I 1 i ,I I I i I i 4 I I 1 I I I I I I I I I 1 I I 1 '\ \, '\ I ', \ '.

An Fb- stract of the resolution by the Board of Supervisors clqsing the road to vehicular traffic was attached to the lette:. Also presented was a copy of a letter from the County St.$- veyor an8 Road Commissioner's office in San Diego, dated March 1.3, 1959, addressed to G.A. Grober, staring in 1948 Road Survey No. 135 on Map No 1719 of Laguna Mesa Tract$, was closed to vehicular traffic OR~;J and not vacated and abandoned to public use. Since that time the road has tleen annerzd to the City of Carlsbad and the County has no f4rther jurisdiction over the same; therefore, if the adjacent: property owners want the road vacated, it will be necesiary 'io petition the City Council of the City of Carlsbad. i Mr. Luth further stated that at the previous hearing by I the Council on this matter, it was the feeling of some gf the members that in granting this variance, in order thgt the property be improved, it would mean more revenue toithe City through taxation, He did not feel that the amountlof revenue to the City should enter into this matter. The ; question is, is Mr. Briggs in violatior. of the ordinanct. A meeting was held by the various property owners in the area, and this proposed building was discussed; the oniy thing they could think of was '*Cliff DwellersP8 homes. 41so if the Council permits garages on the street level, the3 will be creating a t@Frankenstein". This variance tJould: be detrimental to the City of Carlsbad and to the safeti of the people. I I A letter from P.S. Allen, 5099 Shore Drive, dated August 15, 1960, was presented by Mr. Luth, wherein Mr. Allen statid he wished to protest the granting of a variance request:by Mr. Donald Briggs, Jr. He is financially interested in: the properzy directly across Jefferson Street; a 2' front set back would cause a traffic hazard, due to the curved robd and the street being a heavily traveled thoroughfare; : sewers have been installed 2nd paid for by the neighboring property omers, and no one could collect from Mr. Brigbs no:.?. If the variance were granted, it would certainly aown grade the neighboring property. I I -. I I I I I 1 1 I I I 4 I Mr. Luth presented pictures of the front and rear of this pwerty.

MABEL MARTIN read a statement in which she ob jetted ; to the varizince requested by Mr. Briggs on his Jefferson ; Street prr,y?rty for the following reasons: (1) Ordinance : No. 9060 adopted by the City Council, Article 1 wqs establiskl to promote among other things an orderly, planned use of lbd Her belief was that the Article was written and intended i to protect the individuals who built within the requirements of t"is ordinmce. The taxpayers who own, and have develoied the land across the road fromMr. Briggs proposed building: sir;es3 are well within all of these requirements. They wopld not have put the money they have in their homes, had they i thought that some day all of these ordinam requirements : could be cast aside to allow such building sites; no one i would have become interested in this Cliff if their homes : were not: already there. One of the Planning Commissionersi remarked at the meeting of July 12th Oqlets get on with thib the man has his money tied up in the land and wants to stakt: buildingfl. What about the individuals who have real monieis tied up in their land and homes and not just a down Paymen$ on them. Mr. Briggs did not buy Ocean frontage, nor beach: property, and least of all a building site. He knew this i when he bought it. In closing Nrs. Martin asked that the : Council give them the protection they are entitled to und+ this ordinance, and deny this front set back variance. MR. L. E. BUCKLNGHAM, stated he owned property at the corder of Las Flores and Jefferson, and the property owners want i a fair opinion on this matter. So far it has not looked do honest . I 1 As there ::ere no further protests or objections regisLere4, the Mayor announced that the Council would hear from the i appellee or his representative. 1 I MR. PAML S. SWZnSKY stared he was an Attorney at Law and i was representing Mr. Briggs. There has been no new evide<ce presented that was not presented at the previous hearing.; erty to use. This variance is to be used in a particular; instance where it is necessary for a person to carry out i the use of the land. In Ma.y the matter was denied by the : Planning Cornmission. Mr. Briggs appealed the decision of ithe Planning Commission and a hearing was held by the Council: The Council was required to refer the matter back to the i Planning Commission in accordance with the ordinance, as i it w4s the intention of the Council to grant this variancq. In the meantime a new Planning Conjmission was appointed, dnd the matter had to be reheard by the new Planning Conanissiin, and it was their decision to grant the variance. He furttier pointed out there is proof in file as to any traffic probjem. This street is a secondary street; there is a statement id writing stating in effect that the granting of this variatjce would not create a traffic problem. Mr. Swirsky asked thd Council to give weight to the opinion from the Chief of P4lice. Mr. Briggs presented a model of the building he intends t9 erect on the property. This project is engineeringly fea; sible. This variance should be granted so that the propetty can be developed. The appellants have given no reason fos not grantlng this variance except that they do not want t$e- property developed. This is the very sane problem you hays on the beach front property. The resm for granting thit variance is that it is good eccnomical planning. Mr. Swiqsky pointed out the four reasons the Council gave for grant in$ the appeal of Mr. Briggs at the previous hearing, which were set forth in a memorandum sent to the Planning C&nmissionjas fol:ows: (1) Similar variances have been granted on other; beach front properties; (2) ,A. pattern was set by the Coun4y; (3) There is a definite pattern set by topographical cond$tims that exist in the City; and (4) This property is located ; on the outside radius of the curve on Jeff.erson St. , ther{- for@, a dwelling would not cause any additional traffic haza& I I I 1 I I I I I -1, ALL~ 3 reason for requesting this variance is to put the pro$- I I I I I I I 1 I x..

Mr.Briggs informed the Council he owns 400 feet fronting \ on Jefferson Street, making a total of three lots. He is: requesting this reduction in set back in order to have a ; circular drive. Mayor Sonneman asked about the street vacation of the stret at the rear of the property. She pointed out this street; was closed to vehicular traffic only.

Cmn. Guevara asked if there was an area for children to play. Cmn. McPherson stated he could not understand the real estate people stating that without this variance this property hid no value, but that if the property were granted a varianct they would be worth approximately $10,0001 I I Mr. Briggs stated this was ture - without a variance he wiuld not be able to build. Mayor Sonneman asked to see the letter previously presentfd by Mr. Xuth from the Union Title fnsurance and Trust Compgny dated March 5, 1959, addressed to Mr. Grober, regarding t$e closing of the road to vehicular traffic only, wherein they stated they would make sure that the road would show closgd to any vehicular traffic in issuing any policy of title iosur- ance on properties affected. The Mayor asked that this l+tter be made a part of the records. 8 The City Attorney presented the policy of title insurance: issued to Mr. Briggs, and advised the Council that Mr. Brjggs has title in fee to this road, subject to said road easement, Mayor Sonneman stated she felt the problem before the Coubcil was in regards to the requirements for granting a variance, The City Attorney reviewed the ordinance for the Council.; Cmn. Bierce stated that he did not see that anything new : had been brought out tonight at this hearing that had not: been brought 0u.t at the previous hearing. Cmn.

I I DONALD ERESSELHAUS stated he was representing Mr. Edward$* as he is the engineer on the project. Mr. Dresselhaus ! presented a plan of the proposed project. Mr. Edwards' i lot is situated next to Grand Avenue. Their thinking i was to improve Grqnd Avenue. Their plan and request is: that Grend Avenue be developed in accordance with the i requirements of the City of Carlsbad and in complete ; compliance. He asked that the Council forget the origi4al plan presented and consider the plan before them at thiS time, and grant the request in accordance with Item P2 i of the report for the improvement of Grand Ave, Mayor Sonneman s tated there were several matters to be; considered. This would make quite a steep street; also: the set back should be considered. Mr. Dresselhaus stated Mr. Edwards has already received a variance for the i property. Mayor Sonneman further stqted that a 40 foot: street is a substandard street, and some day she an i visions a pier at the end of '3rand Ave., also she was : concerned with the traffic congestion and turn around. i The Assistant City Engineer stated that in the design of the street it would probably be a 33 foot roadway, and i he would like to limit the grade to a 20% grade. Dis- ; cussion was given as to the turn around at the West end: of Grand, The assistant engineer stated he felt it i would be feasible; hoxever, he suggested that signs be i postcd stating Wot a Through Street'#. I I Mayor Sonneman stated she was fearful of vehicles using! this street and felt it would definitely be a traffic i hazard , Mr. Dresselhaus pointed out there were several streets I in La Jolla that are designed such as this street woufdjbe and have been used successfully €or several years. By motion of the Council the applicant was granted permission to improve Grand Avenue from Ocean Street i west, according to the City's specifications at his own! expense. I I The City Attorney stated she would like the minutes to i reflect that at the meeting with the staff the owner I stated he would be willing to construct steps at the enb of the street for access to the beach, and also take caFe of the drainage problem.
