Public Hearing-Wednesday, December 12, 1984
Dear Mr. Klukas:
I received a notice of public hearing that you sent to me relative the above matter
and I apprecate your follow through on this issue. I am extremely disappointed
that the matter falls on the same night in which I have previously committed my-
self in another city which would preclude me from appearing publicly at the hear-
inq. Accordingly I am requesting that you carry my sentiments to the commission
for their consideration while deliberating this particular issue.
As I have stated in the past, I am not opposed to the orderly development of any
of the property along the coast line for the City of Carlsbad. However I am
strongly opposed to a deep density development which would not give considera-
tion to the needed open space of the eventual occupants of any such development
as well as impact the open space of adjacent properties. You will note that this
property Is surrounded or I should say nearly adjacent to two mobile home parks.
Solamar Mobilehome park is located on the north while just south of the proposed
development is my park, Lanikal Lane Mobilehome park. Under present laws of
the City of Carlsbad, it is highly unlikely that either of these mobllehome parks
wl 11 be redeveloped Into any other useage than that of which they now maintain.
There Is on the bc>,0ks of the City of Car·lsbad a mobilehome law which protects
the residents of sald park at a time of redevelopment and with the terms of that
law so in favor of the resident, the redevelopanent is made unlikely. I point this
out to you as both of these developments are low profile properties which blend
quite nicely with the overall coast line. To inject between them a high density
high rise development would destroy the general contour of the coast line as well
as Interfere with the o!)en space now provided by the nearly ~00 plus residents
of the community of Carlsbad who reside ln these two mobilehome parks. It Is
my pe,..sonal and professional opinion that any density of this property greater
than ten units to the aero would be excessive and would not provide for the future
level of acceptable living conditions for either the eventual residents of the created

project or the neighboring residents of the project.
I flnnly believe that the Planning Commission of the City of Carlsbad should under
the professional eye of the Planning Dt:,partment give special and detailed con-
slmratlon to his entire remaining coast llne of our community. It ls cl•rly the
responsiblllty of the Planning Commission to not only study density of this par-
tlallar profect but as well its design, facade, color and texture.
All of us that are Interested In the on-going development of Carlsbad and in parti-
cular Its Planning Commissioners and elected councilmen should r•llze and recog-
nize t t this open piece of coast line is a very pr ecious cormnodlty and as such
Its development should be strongly scrutlnh:ed and highly controlled.
While It may not be germane to the points that I set forth, I feel it is somewhat
Interesting to note that this position is taken by me after having spent 35 years
In the real estate de•.-elopment business, I field in which I still practice. 1 am
eminently famlllar with the demands placed upon developers by other communities
and thus I recognize and know the responsibilities that should be yours In this
particular instance.
I would greatly appreciate this letter being distributed to the members of the
Planning Commission prior to their public nearing and I have enclosed copies ofr
that purpose.
Very truly yours,
