Item No.
P.C. AGENDA OF: July 6, 2011
Application complete date: May 4, 2011
Project Planner: Greg Fisher
Project Engineer: Steven Bobbett
SUBJECT: CDP 11-04 - CORBIN RESIDENCE - Request for approval of a Coastal
Development Permit to allow for the construction of a new 2,518 square foot,
one-story, single family residence with attached two car garage and the conversion
of the existing residence into a 1,120 square foot guest house on a 0.42-acre lot
located at 431 Tamarack Avenue, in the Mello II Segment of the Local Coastal
Program and within Local Facilities Management Zone 1.
I. RECOMMENDATION
That the Planning Commission ADOPT Planning Commission Resolution No. 6780
APPROVING Coastal Development Permit CDP 11-04 based upon the findings and subject to
the conditions contained therein.
II. INTRODUCTION
Pursuant to Section 21.201.030 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code, the construction of a single
family dwelling unit within the City's Coastal Zone requires the processing and approval of a
Coastal Development Permit (CDP). The CDP application was reviewed for consistency with
Local Coastal Program (LCP) policies and implementation. There are no unresolved issues. The
staff recommendation of approval with conditions is supported by the analysis as follows.
III. PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND
The proposed project consists of a request for a Coastal Development Permit to construct a new
2,518 square foot, one-story, single-family dwelling unit with an attached 546 square-foot two-
car garage on an 18,611 square foot lot (0.42 net acres) located at 431 Tamarack Avenue. The
existing single story, 1,120 square foot residence located at the front of the lot will be converted
into a guest house by removing the kitchen facilities. The guest house is not to be rented or
otherwise used as a separate dwelling unit.
Project Site/Setting: The existing lot is narrow and deep in dimension (52' x 365'). Site
topography consists of a previously graded and developed infill lot located on the south side of
Tamarack Avenue as shown on the attached location map). Topographically, the lot is flat and
does not support any native vegetation. The lot area is .42 acres (18,611 square feet) and is
located outside the appeals jurisdiction of the California Coastal Commission. The property is
bordered by single family residences on all sides.

Proposed Construction: The applicant is proposing to construct a new 2,518 square foot, one-
story, single-family dwelling unit, with an attached 546 square-foot two-car garage and the
conversion of the existing residence into a guest house. The dwelling has a proposed maximum
height of 17.5 feet. The one-story "Ranch" architectural style structure will be constructed of
wood framing with a mix of stucco and stone veneer siding and feature white vinyl framed
windows with low-e glass and raised foam trim; tile roof; covered entry porch, separate court
yard area with decorative stucco and veneer faced wall and iron entry gate; as well as a tawny
cream (yellow/brown) tone exterior color which complements the Ranch style architecture.
Proposed Grading: It has been determined that only minimal grading is required to prepare the
site for the home, therefore, the City Engineer has determined that a grading permit will not be
required.
Impact on Coastal Resources: The proposal comprises the development of a one-story, single
family dwelling unit on a previously graded infill lot; no agricultural activities, sensitive
resources, geological instability, flood hazard or coastal access opportunities exists onsite; and
the development does not obstruct views of the coastline as seen from public lands or public
rights-of-way or otherwise damage the visual beauty of the coastal zone.
IV. ANALYSIS
The project is subject to the following ordinances, standards, and policies:
A. Residential Low-Medium Density (RLM) General Plan Land Use designation;
B. One-Family Residential Zone, 7,500 square foot minimum lot size (R-l-7,500, CMC
Chapter 21.10);
C. Coastal Development Regulations for the Mello II Segment of the Local Coastal Program
(CMC Chapter 21.201) and the Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone (CMC Chapter
21.203)
D. Inclusionary Housing Ordinance (CMC Chapter 21.85); and
E. Growth Management (CMC Chapter 21.90).
The recommendation for approval of this project was developed by analyzing the project's
consistency with the applicable city regulations and policies. The project's compliance with each
of the above regulations is discussed in detail in the sections below.
A. Residential Low Medium Density (RLM) General Plan Land Use
The project site has a Residential Low Medium Density (RLM) General Plan Land Use
designation. The RLM Land Use designation allows the development of single-family dwelling
units at a density of 0-4 dwelling units per acre with a Growth Management Control Point
(GMCP) of 3.2 dwelling units per acre. At the RLM GMCP, 1.34 dwelling units would be
permitted on this 0.42 acre (net developable) property. As one single family home is proposed at
a density of 2.38 dwelling units per acre, the project is consistent with the RLM General Plan
Land Use designation. The 1 dwelling unit proposed is .34 dwelling units below the RLM
Growth Management yield of 1.34 dwelling units used for the purpose of calculating the City's
CDP 11-04 - CORBIN RESIDENCE

compliance with Government Code Section 65863. However, consistent with Program 3.8 of the
City's certified Housing Element, all of the dwelling units which were anticipated toward
achieving the City's share of the regional housing need that are not utilized by developers in
approved projects, including fractional units, are deposited in the City's Excess Dwelling Unit
Bank. These excess dwelling units are available for allocation to other projects. Accordingly,
there is no net loss of residential unit capacity and there are adequate properties identified in the
Housing Element allowing residential development with a unit capacity, including second
dwelling units, adequate to satisfy the City's share of the regional housing need.
B. One-Family Residential Zone, 7,500 square foot minimum lot size (R-l-7,500, CMC
Chapter 21.10)
The zoning designation for the property is One-Family Residential, with a minimum lot size of
7,500 square feet (R-l-7,500). The proposed project meets or exceeds all applicable requirements
of the R-l-7,500 zone as demonstrated in Table A below:

The existing one-story residence which will be converted into a 1,120 square foot guest house
also meets or exceeds all applicable development standards of the R-l Zone.
C. Mello II Segment of the Local Coastal Program (CMC Chapter 21.201) and the
Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone (CMC Chapter 21.203)
The project site is located within the Mello II Segment of the Local Coastal Program (LCP) and
the Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone (CMC Chapter 21.203). The project's compliance
with each of these programs and ordinances is discussed below.
1. Mello II Segment of the Local Coastal Program
The project consists of the construction of a new 2,518 square-foot, single-family dwelling unit
and the conversion of an existing residence into a 1,120 square foot guest house on a lot
designated as Residential Low-Medium Density (RLM), by the Mello II Land Use Plan. The one-
story dwelling unit and guest house will be compatible with surrounding one and two-story
residences and will not obstruct views of the coastline as seen from public lands or the public
right-of-way, nor otherwise damage the visual beauty of the coastal zone. No agricultural uses
currently exist on the previously graded site, nor are there any sensitive resources located on the
property. In addition, the proposed single-family dwelling unit and guest house are not located in
CDP 11-04-

an area of known geologic instability or flood hazards. Since the site does not have frontage
along the coastline, no public opportunities for coastal shoreline access are available from the
subject site. Furthermore, the residentially-designated site is not suited for water-oriented
recreation activities.
2. Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone
The project is consistent with the provisions of the Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone
(CMC Chapter 21.203 of the Zoning Ordinance) in that the project will adhere to the City's
Master Drainage Plan, Grading Ordinance, Storm Water Ordinance, Standard Urban Storm
Water Mitigation Plan (SUSMP) and Jurisdictional Urban Runoff Management Program
(JURMP) to avoid increased urban run-off, pollutants and soil erosion. No development is
proposed in areas of steep slopes (> 25% gradient). No native vegetation is located on the subject
property. In addition, the site is not located in an area prone to landslides, or susceptible to
accelerated erosion, floods or liquefaction.
D. Inclusionary Housing Ordinance
For any residential development less than seven units, the inclusionary housing requirements may
be satisfied through the payment to the city of an impact fee. The project has been conditioned to
pay this fee prior to the issuance of a building permit.
E. Growth Management
The proposed project is located within Local Facilities Management Zone 1 in the northwest
quadrant of the City. The project is subject to the provisions of the Growth Management
Ordinance, as contained in Chapter 21.90 of the Zoning Ordinance. The construction of a new
single-family residence and the conversion of an existing residence into a 1,120 square foot guest
house will not have any adverse impacts on public facilities. The project's conformance with the
requirements of the Growth Management regulations is detailed in Table B below.

The proposed project is 0.34 units below the Growth Management unit yield for this RLM
designated property. Consistent with the General Plan and Policy No. 43, 0.34 DUs will be
deposited into the City's excess dwelling unit bank.
V. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The Planning Director has determined that the project belongs to a class of projects that the State
Secretary for Resources has found do not have a significant impact on the environment.
Therefore, the project is categorically exempt from the requirement for the preparation of an
environmental document pursuant to the following Section of the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines:
Section 15303(a) of CEQA exemptions (Class 3) exempts the construction of a single-
family residence in a residential zone from environmental review.
In light of the above, a Notice of Exemption will be filed by the Planning Director upon project
approval.
