TENTATIVE SUBDIVISION MAP - LEBNX ESTi'TES, UNIT #2 The Secretary certified to the mailing of notices to adjacent property owners and then read the recommendations from the various departments and agencies. The Secretary then presented proposed desolution No. 208 incorporating the recommendations of the departmens and agencies as conditions for approving the tentative map . The City Engineer explained his recommendations to the Commission in detail and Mr. Bonadiman, 671 D. St., San Bernardinu, whose firm had prepared the plans for the subdivision, was present to answer any questions the Comnission might have. J.T. PALMER, 2635 Highland, stated that he owned the property inmediately adjoining the Sutton property at the end of Yourell, snd was very interested as to what was going to happen to his fence. The fact that Yourell is to be con- tinued through there, he felt would depreciate the value of his property some- what. He felt that he would rather Yourell stayed a dead end street the way it is now. FRED WHITING, 1420 Yourell, stated that he bought his home with the idea that Yourell would remain a dead end street. As it is now, children cen play there but if it cuts through the children would not have a chance because 90% of the traffic would go down Yourell. He WRS against the street's being made a through street. Z.R. DE ARMOND, 1415 Yourell, stated that a look at the map would show that if cut through, all the traffic would go down Yourell rather than go on to Forest Avenue. Highland Drive will not be cut through, so Yourell will take all the traffic. If you count rerely the traffic caused by people going to and from work, every two or three minutes a car would go dow Yourell. There are a lot of children there and he feared there would be a lot of accidents. He strongly objected to Yourell's being continued on through.. HOWARD BOWLING, 1425 Yourell stated that he thought enough had already been said to show that Yourell should not be cut through. Evervone that had bounht a house there thought it would remain a dead end street. He felt that it was one of the nicest streets in Carlsbad, not elaborate, but the people had improved their properties. There is no need for it to be cut through there and it will depreciate the property. FMLIS LEGLER, 1275 Yourell, stated that the only thing he had to add to what had been said was that he had bought on that street because he liked a dead end street and he would hate to see it continued on through. MRS. Z.R. DE ARMOND, 1415 Yourell, stated that Yourell Avenue re;llly went no- where and there was no need to cut it through. The street is only two blocks long and there is no need to cut it through when it just goes down one block beyond the fence ahd then terminates. Chairman Grant asked for some clarification as to just how the streets in that area tied in with each other. Mr. Bonadiman stated that Yourell, as shown on the original Shangri La Subdivision map, was a through street. Chairman Grant made the observation that although the people's objections to t!-is have to be con- sidered, the people also should renlize that since the street stopped at an avocado grove, there was a strong possibility of its being subdivided. MR. BOWLING stated that he thought it vould be doing the prospective home owners of the subdivision a favor to leave the street a dead end as it is nicer as a quiet street and the distance to get to Highland is about the same by another route. There was some discussion about the fact that Yourell was a dead end street not a cul-de-sac despite the fact that there was curb across it at the end where the fence was, and also the fact that as long as the curb and fence w were on city property, it could be removed at any time that the city felt it was necessary. Comissioners Davis and Ward, as the committee appointed to study this matter, suggested that the street not be opened until after construction of the subdivision was completed and then if it seemed necessary, to open it. MR. BONADLMAN told 'the Commission that they were willing to conform to all the reconmendations that had been made. A motion was made by Commissioner Hardwick and seconded by Commissioner Kistler that Resolution No. 208 be adopted recommending to the City Council the approval of the tentative map of Lebarr Estates, Unit %2 Subdivision. The Chairman asked for a roll call vote.

The Chairman then instructed the Secretary to extend an invitation to the City Council. The committee appointed to look into the matter of industrial zoning in Carlsbad along Vista Way and Haymar Rd. was presented with a study of industrial zoning which the Secretary had compiled.
