AGENDA OF: July 17, 2013 Application complete date: March 26, 2013 Project Planner: Greg Fisher Project Engineer: Steve Bobbett SUBJECT: CDP 13-04 -LE\iVIS RESIDENCE -Request for approval of a Coastal Development Pennit to allow for the demolition of an existing single-family home and detached garage and the constrnction of a new 2,488 square foot single-family residence with detached two-car garage on a .14 acre lot located at 168 Maple A venue, within the Mello II Segment of the Local Coastal Program and within Local Facilities Management Zone 1. The City Planner has detennined that the proj ect belongs to a class of projects that the State Secretary for Resources has found do not have a significant impact on the environment, and it is therefore categorically exempt from the requirement for the preparation of envir01m1ental documents ptusuant to Sections 15301(1)(1) demolition of a single family residence and 15303 (a) construction of a single family residence of the state CEQA Guidelines. I. RECOMMENDATION That the Planning Commission ADOPT Planning Commission Resolution No. 6990 APPROVING Coastal Development Pennit CDP 13-04 based upon the findings and subject to the conditions contained therein. II. INTRODUCTION Pursuant to Section 2 1.201.030 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code, the construction of a single family home within the City's Coastal Zone requires the processing and approval of a Coastal Development Pem1it (CDP). The CDP application was reviewed for consistency with Local Coastal Program (LCP) policies and implementation. The project is not located within the Appeals Jmisdiction of the coastal zone; therefore, the Planning Commission's decision on the CDP cannot be appealed to the California Coastal Commission. There are no unresolved issues. The staff recommendation of approval with conditions is suppo11ed by the analysis as follows. III. PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND The proposed project consists of a request for approval of a Coastal Development Pem1it to allow for the demolition of a single-family home and detached garage and the constrnction of a new 2,488 square foot single-family residence with a detached two-car garage on a .14 acre lot located at 168 Maple A venue within the Beach Area Oveday Zone (BAOZ). 0 CDP 13-04 – LEWIS RESIDENCE July 17, 2013 Page 2 Project Site/Setting: The .14 acre, rectangular shaped and topographically level disturbed parcel is located at 168 Maple Avenue, on the north side of the street. The parcel is located east of Carlsbad Boulevard and west of Garfield Street, within the Mello II Segment of the LCP and Local Facilities Management Zone 1. The site has a Multiple-Family Residential (R-3) Zone and a General Plan Land Use designation of Residential High (RH). Surrounding properties to the north, south, east and west are designated RH and zoned R-3 and are developed with multi- family apartments and single family residences. The project is not located within the Appeals Jurisdiction of the coastal zone; therefore, the Planning Commission’s decision on the CDP cannot be appealed to the California Coastal Commission. Proposed Residential Construction: The project consists of the demolition of an existing single family residence and detached garage and the construction of a new 2,488 square foot two story (23.6 foot tall) single-family residence with detached 400 square foot second dwelling unit, above a two car garage. The proposed two-story residence takes on a European Beach Cottage feel with the use of six inch hardi-siding, aluminum clad wood windows, and a Dutch entry door. Other features include windows of varied shapes and sizes, large covered Lanai, two second story view decks and a decorative asphalt shingle roof. The second dwelling unit will be administratively reviewed and acted upon by the City Planner through a separate minor coastal development permit, pursuant to CMC Section 21.201.085 and subsequent to the Planning Commission action on CDP 13-04. IV. ANALYSIS The proposed project is subject to the following ordinances, standards, and policies: A. Residential High Density (RH) General Plan Land Use designation; B. Multiple-Family Residential Zone (R-3, CMC Chapter 21.16) and Beach Area Overlay Zone (CMC Chapter 21.82); 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 regulations and policies. The project’s compliance with each of the above regulations and policies is discussed in the sections below. A. General Plan The project site has a Residential High Density (RH) General Plan Land Use designation. The RH Land Use designation allows the development of two-family, multiple-family and one-family dwellings at a density of 15-23 dwelling units per acre with a Growth Management Control Point (GMCP) of 19 dwelling units per acre. The project has a density of 7.14 dwelling units per acre which is below the lower range of the General Plan Land Use designation. At the RH GMCP, 2.66 dwelling units would be permitted on this 0.14 acre (net developable) property. However, CDP 13-04 – LEWIS RESIDENCE July 17, 2013 Page 3 one single-family dwelling unit is guaranteed pursuant to the following General Plan Land Use provision: “Notwithstanding the density provisions and intent of each residential land use designation, a one-family dwelling shall be permitted on any legal lot that existed as of October 28, 2004.” The subject lot was legally created prior to October 28, 2004; therefore development of a one-family dwelling is consistent with the RH General Plan Land Use designation. The one dwelling unit proposed is 1.66 dwelling units below the RH Growth Management Control Point yield of 2.66 dwelling units used for the purpose of calculating the City’s 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. Multiple-Family Residential Zone (R-3, CMC Chapter 21.16) and Beach Area Overlay Zone (CMC Chapter 21.82) The project is required to comply with all applicable regulations and development standards of the Carlsbad Municipal Code (CMC) including the Multi-Family Residential (R-3) zone and the Beach Area Overlay Zone (BAOZ). The proposed project meets or exceeds all applicable requirements of the R-3 zone and BAOZ as demonstrated in Table A below. TABLE A – R-3 ZONE AND BAOZ DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS STANDARD REQUIRED PROPOSED COMPLY Front Yard Setback 15’ (key lot) 20’ Yes Side Yard Setback 5’ minimum 5’ Yes Rear Yard Setback 10’ minimum 10’ Yes Lot Coverage 60% maximum 33% Yes Max Building Height (Beach Area Overlay Zone) 30’ maximum with ≥ 3:12 roof pitch or 24’ maximum with < 3:12 roof pitch 23.6’ with 4:12 roof pitch Yes Parking Visitor (BAOZ) Two-car garage One space (may be located within driveway) Two-car garage One space located within driveway Yes Yes C. Mello II Segment of the Local Coastal Program (CMC Chapter 21.201) and the Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone (CMC Chapter 21.03) The project site is located within the Mello II Segment of the Local Coastal Program (LCP). The site is also located within and subject to the Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone (CMC Chapter 21.203). The project’s compliance with each of these programs and ordinances is discussed below: CDP 13-04 – LEWIS RESIDENCE July 17, 2013 Page 4 1. Mello II Segment of the Local Coastal Program The project consists of the construction of a new 2,488 square foot single-family residence on a lot designated as Residential High Density (RH), by the Mello II Land Use designation. The proposed two-story home 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 developed site, nor are there any sensitive resources located on the property. In addition, the proposed single-family residence is not located in 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) and 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 Pursuant to CMC Chapter 21.85.030 (D.3), a project may be exempt from the inclusionary housing requirement if the construction of a new residential structure replaces a residential structure that was demolished within two years prior to the application for a building permit for the new residential structure, provided that the number of residential units is not increased from the number of residential units of the previously demolished residential structure. Since there will not be an increase in the number of units on the property, the project will be exempt from the inclusionary housing requirement if building permits are issued within two years of the demolition of the existing residential structure. E. Growth Management The proposed project is located within Local Facilities Management Zone 1 in the northwest quadrant of the city. However, there will be no impact to public facilities because the new single-family residence will be replacing an existing single-family residence that will be demolished. V. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW This project is exempt from CEQA per the exemptions listed below: CDP 13-04 – LEWIS RESIDENCE July 17, 2013 Page 5 (1) Section 15301(l)(1) of CEQA Guidelines (Class 1) exempts the demolition of single-family residences. (2) Section 15303(a) of CEQA exemptions (Class 3) exempts the construction of a single family residence from environmental review. A Notice of Exemption will be filed by the City Planner upon final project approval. ATTACHMENTS: 1. Planning Commission Resolution No. 6990 2. Location Map 3. Disclosure Form 4.
