SfAFF REPORT
DATE: OCTOBER 20, 1993
TO: PLANNING COMMISSION
FROM: PLANNING DEPARTMENT
SUBJECT: LFMP 87-ll(A)/LFMP 87-12(A) -ZONE 11 and 12 LOCAL FACILITIES
MANAGEMENT PLANS -Request for approval of an amendment to. the Zone
11 and 12 Local Facilities Management Plans to include revisions to the
financing plan.
I. RECOMMENDATION
That the Planning Commission ADOPT Planning Commission Resolution No. 3559,
recommending APPROVAL of the amendment to the Zone 11 and 12 Local Facilities
Management Plans based on the findings contained therein.
II. PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND
The Zones 11 and 12 Local Facilities Management Plans (LFMP) were originally adopted
on February 23, 1988, and August 21, 1990, respectively. On May 19, 1992, the City
Council approved the Financing Plans for Zones 11 and 12 which called for the formation
of an Assessment District to finance the construction of Rancho Santa Fe Road, Olivenhain
Road, and other related minor infrastructure improvements. Changing economic conditions
have made the option of Assessment District formation infeasible. As such, the City in
cooperation with the property owners in Zones 11 and 12 have now determined that a
Community Facilities District (CFO) may be the preferred financing mechanism in place of
an Assessment District for the required facilities. The proposed amendment would simply
allow for this alternate financing option. No other changes to the Local Facilities
Management Plan are proposed at this time.
The following is a summary of the updated status of each of the facilities for Local
Facilities Management Plan Zones 11 and 12.
City Administrative Facilities, Library, and Parks. Community Facilities District (CFO) No.
1 was formed in 1991 to finance a number of facilities of Citywide benefit. All properties
in Zones 11 and 12 are already participating in CFO No.1. A combination of CFO No. 1
and payment of Public Facilities Fee (PFF) constitutes the required financial guarantee for
City Administrative Facilities and Library. Park facilities are guaranteed by a combination
of park-in-lieu Fees, PPP, and compliance with special conditions of the LFMP.

Wastewater Treatment Capacity. The Phase N expansion of the Encina Water Pollution
Control Facility has been completed. Therefore, the special conditions stated in the
approved LFMP's are now satisfied.
Drainage. All development within Zones 11 and 12 will be required to construct drainage
facilities or pay any drainage area fee established by the Revised Drainage Master Plan.
Circulation. With the required mitigation, Zones 11 and 12 will meet the standards of the
Growth Management Ordinance.
Open Space. Open space within Zones 11 and 12 will be in compliance with the latest
adopted standards.
Schools. Pursuant to state law, Zones 11 and 12 will pay required school fees in effect at
the time of development.
Fire. With the establishment of temporary fire station #6, Zones 11 and 12 meet
established standard.
Water and Sewer. All facilities will be provided pursuant to the 1990 Water Master Plan.
All potable water and reclaimed water facilities required to serve Zones 11 and 12 will be
constructed or appropriate fees paid at the time of development. Sewer facilities will be
provided to meet established standards.
m. ANALYSIS
Planning Issues
1. Does the proposed amendment to the Zones 11 and 12 Local Facilities Management
Plans satisfy all requirements of the Growth Management Ordinance (Chapter 21.90
of the Carlsbad Municipal Code)?
DISCUSSION
The proposed amendments to the Zone 11 and 12 Local Facilities Management Plans have
been prepared in accordance with Chapter 21.90 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code. The
present financing plans for Zones 11 and 12 specifically call for the formation of an
"Assessment District" to fund facilities. The proposed amendment would perm.it the use of
a Community Facilities District or other financing program acceptable to the City Council
to fund facilities. This change is consistent with the City's Growth Management Ordinance
(Chapter 21.90 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code).
