II.PROJECT BACKGROUND AND DESCRIPTION
Kaiza Poinsettia Corporation is requesting approval of entitlements that will allow the
implementation of the Poinsettia Shores Master Plan, MP 175(D), GPA 91-05, LCPA 91-02
and LFMP 87-09(A), approved by the Carlsbad City Council on January 4,1994 and by the
California Coastal Commission on May 12, 1994. The next step to implement the master
plan is to subdivide the master plan property, mass grade the site and construct required
public improvements (Avenida Encinas roadway and drainage facilities). The proposed
tentative map is a master tentative map that subdivides the subject property into eight
planning area lots and two open space lots. Rough sheet grading is also proposed so that
only final finish grading will be required with individual planning area development
proposals.
No dwelling units or specific planning area site plans are involved with this master
tentative map. Individual planning area proposals will be reviewed after master tentative
map approval. A Hillside Development Permit (HDP) is required because the eastern edge
of the master plan site is a hillside area that is part of the proposed mass grading and is
C^ ,-r-wi/4^ 7-r-v^

subject to the City's Hillside Development Ordinance with regards to grading quantities and
cut/fill slope heights.
Exhibits "A" - "D" reflect the proposed master tentative map including the large lot
subdivisions, the proposed mass grading, the Avenida Encinas roadway and a desiltation
basin on the west side (of the railroad tracks) of the master plan. Exhibits "E" - "P" are the
constraints exhibits for the site. Exhibits "Q" - "S" are open space exhibits that show in
detail a blufftop open space lot that will be a public open space right of way area for a trail
segment within the master plan. The HDP exhibits including slope analysis and cross
sections are shown on Exhibits "T" - "X". The landscaping associated with this master
tentative map/HDP is shown on Exhibits 'Y1 - "Z".
The general topography of the Poinsettia Shores master plan site is mostly flat with slight
topographic undulations on both sides of the railroad tracks. Two exceptions are (1) the
bluff and slope areas adjacent to the Batiquitos Lagoon which have already been dedicated
as permanent open space, and (2) the hillside area on the eastern perimeter of the site
between the existing Windrose Circle roadway and the 1-5 freeway. The site has been
previously disturbed through past agricultural and flower growing activities. No sensitive
plant or animal species are associated with the site. Environmental impacts from
subdividing and mass grading the land are minor and mitigation measures are imposed to
reduce any impacts to insignificance as discussed in the Environmental Review section of
this report. The site now remains vacant with the exception of the Rosalena single family
subdivision and Windrose Circle.
The proposal is consistent with all applicable land use designations, coastal designations
and policies, local facilities provisions per the City's Growth Management Ordinance and
will allow implementation of the Poinsettia Shores Master Plan and subsequent planning
area level proposals.
A brief summary of the entitlements being requested is provided below:
Master Tentative Tract Map:
As shown on Exhibits "A" - "D", dated July 6, 1994, the master tentative map proposes to
create eight large, single lot planning areas and two open space lots on the master plan's
east side. The Avenida Encinas roadway will be constructed in compliance with the
alignment approved with the Poinsettia Snores Master Plan. This involves an alignment
of the roadway over the eastern portion of the master plan, a bridge over the railroad
tracks and a new intersection with Carlsbad Boulevard. Portions of existing Windrose
Circle, not needed for this or future development, will be vacated on the final map. As
required by the Local Facilities Management Plan documents for Zone 9 and the City's
Master Drainage Plan, a desiltation basin is also proposed for the west side of the master
plan. No dwelling units are proposed with this master tentative map.

PAGE 3
The proposed 328,000 cubic yards of mass grading balances onsite and primarily involves
the excavation of dirt from the hillside area of the site on the eastern edge to supply the
material for the roadway embankments. Elsewhere on the site, the mass grading will even
out the site and remove topographic undulations to allow for finished grading to be
proposed with individual planning area development proposals. No alterations will be
made to the sensitive lagoon slopes or bluff areas. Full public improvements, including
streets, sewer and water lines, and a storm drain system, will be required within the
subdivision's boundaries.
In addition, there will be no grading within the public right of way located on the blufftop
adjacent to the lagoon. This public right of way measures up to 50 feet wide on the south
facing edge of the bluff and is designated for a public access trail with some amenities
(viewing areas, etc.) per the Poinsettia Shores Master Plan. This area is referred to as Lot
10 on the master tentative map and is depicted with cross sections on Exhibits "Q" - "S".
Hillside Development Permit:
The hillside development permit is required for the grading operations due to the sloping,
hillside topography of the site's eastern portion. This hillside area is reflected in the
project's constraints mapping (Exhibits "E" - "P") as well as the slope analysis required by
the Hillside Development Ordinance (Exhibits "U" and 'V). No significant topographical
features exist in the area and slope areas over 40 percent are mostly confined to the lagoon
slope areas and not the area proposed for mass grading. The former master plan
(Batiquitos Lagoon Educational Park) had a similar yet more intensive grading concept
approved where the hillside was to be cut into for the roadway/embankment material.
No dwelling units or planning area site plans are proposed with this HDP; only compliance
of the grading operation to hillside development regulations is involved. The hillside area
of the site (Lot 9 on the master tentative map) is designated in the master plan as planning
area "C" (a multi-family planning area) and requires a Hillside Development Permit for the
review and approval of structures and crib walls as part of the planning area's specific
development proposal.
III. ANALYSIS
The findings required for the approval of a tentative map and hillside development permit
are found in sections 20.12.091 and 21.95.030, respectively. The project is in compliance
with the West Batiquitos Local Coastal Program and will require a Coastal Development
Permit prior to final map approval. The detailed findings for each permit are listed in the
attached resolutions, therefore the following analysis provides an overview of the pertinent
criteria.

1. Is the proposal consistent with the goals and objectives of the various elements of
the General Plan? Is the proposal consistent with the Poinsettia Shores Master
Plan?
2. Is the proposal consistent with all applicable provisions of the Carlsbad Municipal
Code including Title 20 (Subdivisions) and Chapter 21.95 (Hillside Development
Ordinance)?
3. Is the proposal consistent with the Coastal Act and specifically with the provisions
of the recently amended West Batiquitos Local Coastal Program?
4. Is the proposal consistent with the Zone 9 Local Facilities Management Plan
documents assuring compliance with the City's Growth Management Program?
DISCUSSION
1. General Plan Consistency
The proposal is consistent with the various goals and objectives of the General Plan. The
Poinsettia Shores Master Plan approval of January 4, 1994 included a General Plan
Amendment (GPA 91-05) which established General Plan designations for the master plan
property and found the master plan consistent with various elements and objectives of the
General Plan. Therefore, this master tentative map/hillside development application is
consistent with the General Plan since it will allow implementation of the approved
Poinsettia Shores Master Plan. All subsequent individual planning area development
proposals shall comply with the master plan. This application constructs a major roadway
and subdivides the east side of the master plan to accommodate the residential land uses
of the master plan. Housing Element and affordable housing compliance will be a part of
the first development application that proposes dwelling units, and not this application.
A brief summary of pertinent General Plan elements relative to this application is provided
below:
Circulation Element: The project will construct Avenida Encinas which is a Circulation
Element roadway to a new intersection with Carlsbad Boulevard in the southwest quadrant
of the City. This new intersection will require the removal of two mature Monterey
Cypress trees. These trees will be replaced on the north side of the new intersection as
part of this project's Mitigated Negative Declaration (and discussed further in the
Environmental Review section of this report). This is also consistent with the Scenic
Highways component of the Circulation Element.
Open Space and Conservation Element: The project will not impact any master plan open
space areas associated with the lagoon. A separate lot will be created (Lot 10) specifically
for the bluff top public right of way to accommodate a public trail and related amenities.
CT 94-01/HDP 94-03
POINSETTIA SHORES MASTER TENTATIVE MAP
JULY 6, 1994
PAGE 5
As required by this project's Mitigated Negative Declaration, full archeological and
paleontological monitoring must be coordinated with the mass grading of this site. This
is also consistent with the Cultural Resources component of the Open Space and
Conservation Element.
Land Use Element: The project will mass grade the site and provide infrastructure to allow
the development of the residential portion of the master plan which is designated
Residential Medium (RM). Future map submittals will propose dwelling units within
residential planning areas of the master plan.
2. Municipal Code Consistency
The proposed subdivision complies with all provisions of Title 20 - Subdivisions. All
proposed lots will front on or have access to a publicly dedicated street designed to City
standards. The existing and proposed water and storm drain systems are adequate to
accommodate the proposed master subdivision and future residential subdivisions. The
proposed lot configurations meet all requirements of the Subdivision Map Act and Section
20.16.110 of the C.M.C. regarding subdivision design. The tentative map is conditioned
to provide all necessary circulation improvements. All other improvements and grading
will be reviewed for consistency with the exhibits associated with this project at final map
review, therefore the proposed subdivision complies with the provisions of Title 20.
The portions of Title 21 applicable to this master tentative map/hillside development
application are Chapters 21.38 (P-C Planned Community Zone), Chapter 21.90 (Growth
Management), and Chapter 21.95 (Hillside Development Regulations). The underlying
zone of the subject property is Planned Community (P-C) which requires a master plan to
serve as the zoning document for the site (the approved Poinsettia Shores Master Plan).
The project's consistency with the Growth Management Plan is discussed in a separate
section of this report (Growth Management Compliance). Compliance with hillside
regulations is discussed below.
Hillside Development Ordinance
The topography of the eastern edge of the project site triggers the requirement for a
Hillside Development Permit, subject to Chapter 21.95 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code.
As mentioned earlier, the balanced grading operation of 328,000 cubic yards will mass
grade the site to accommodate planning area developments, drainage facilities and the
Avenida Encinas roadway and associated embankments. Since no dwelling units are
involved with this application, compliance centered on the proposed grading concept.
This project complies with the Hillside Development Ordinance for the following reasons:
(1) a slope analysis of the hillside topography has been provided (Exhibits "U" and 'V) as
well as cross sections of the existing and proposed grades (Exhibits "W" and "X"), (2) there
Cv,, 7-T-wi/n^r 7T-w^
POINSETTIA SHORES MASTER TENTATIVE MAP
JULY 6, 1994
PAGE 6
are no cut or fill slopes proposed that are greater than thirty feet in height (the highest cut
slope is approximately 18 feet associated with the excavation of the hillside area of the
site; the highest fill slope is approximately 16 feet associated with the fill of the Avenida
Encinas roadway just west of the railroad tracks), (3) the project's overall grading volume
of approximately 3,698 cubic yards per graded acre is well within the "acceptable" range
of hillside grading per Chapter 21.95, and (4) the development of Lot 9 (planning area "C")
will require another HDP to review hillside architecture, crib walls, etc.
3. Coastal Zone Compliance
With the approval of the Poinsettia Shores Master Plan, a Local Coastal Program
Amendment was included that established the coastal designations consistent with the
City's General Plan as well as the master plan designations. This proposal for land
subdivisions, mass grading and infrastructure is consistent with the West Batiquitos Local
Coastal Program because it will allow implementation of the approved master plan for the
site. Since no dwelling units are proposed, there are few coastal issues. No grading is
proposed or allowed for sensitive lagoon/coastal resource areas or the public bluff top right
of way adjacent to the lagoon. Exhibits "Q" and "R" show the blufftop public right-of-way
area (Lot 10). Exhibit "S" contains cross sections of this area and shows how no grading
is proposed for Lot 10. Approval of a Coastal Development Permit by the Coastal
Commission is a requirement of final map approval for this project. Therefore, the project
is in compliance with the Coastal Act and the West Batiquitos Local Coastal Program.
4. Growth Management Compliance
The project area is contained within the Local Facilities Management Plan (LFMP) for Zone
9 in the southwest quadrant of the City. This plan was adopted in July, 1989, with an
amendment approved on January 4, 1994 in coordination with the Poinsettia Shores
Master Plan approval. Since no dwelling units are proposed, there are a limited number
of public facility requirements and therefore, the standard assessment of facilities impacts
and the Local Facilities Impacts Assessment Form is not applicable since most facility
requirements are based on dwelling units. However, the project is required to construct
major circulation and drainage facilities in conformance with Zone 9 LFMP documents and
the City's Master Drainage Plan to accommodate the further implementation of the master
plan.
Regarding drainage facilities, as shown on Exhibit "D", the project proposes a desiltation
basin on the site's west side. This area was approved for a basin with the former
educational park master plan and is allowed in the master plan and LCP for the site subject
to all applicable resource agency review and approval. With the master plan approval of
January 1994, specific direction was given by the City Council to examine drainage
alternatives to the westerly (of the railroad tracks) drainage alignment as required by the
Zone 9 LFMP and the City's Master Drainage Plan. Therefore, as part of this project's
C ~
~. ,-,-„., i x-, w
POINSETTIA SHORES MASTER TENTATIVE MAP
JULY 6, 1994
PAGE 7
environmental review, staff reviewed various westerly and easterly drainage alternatives
from both an engineering and environmental standpoint. This analysis led to the
conclusion that any easterly drainage alignment was not preferred to a westerly alignment
for the following reasons: (1) any easterly alignment would require the demolition,
reconstruction and ultimate expansion of the existing basin located just west of the existing
Rosalena subdivision, (2) alteration/expansion of the existing basin will encroach into
sensitive lagoon habitat area, (3) amendments to the Zone 9 LFMP and Master Drainage
Plan would be required, (4) deep storm drains are involved with either alternative,
however, the west side alignment has incrementally shallower storm drains, and (5) any
easterly drainage alignment does not adequately account for the drainage associated with
Carlsbad Boulevard and the Ponto Drive area. A biological report was prepared which
compares the biological impacts of a west side basin vs. an east side basin and concluded
that the west side basin has fewer biological impacts. The least tern site associated with
the on-going Batiquitos Lagoon Enhancement Plan will not be impacted by the desiltation
basin since both were mutually designed to not impact, or not be impacted by, each other.
IV. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The master plan site has a history of environmental analysis starting with a certified
Environmental Impact Report (EIR), EIR 84-03, which addressed the more intensive (with
regards to land use and traffic) former educational park master plan. More recently, a
Mitigated Negative Declaration was approved with the Poinsettia Shores master plan
approval. Most of the required mitigation resulting from EIR 84-03 has already been
completed. As applicable, the remaining mitigation measures were incorporated into the
master plan's Mitigated Negative Declaration. For this master tentative map, a Mitigated
Negative Declaration was prepared that carries over relevant mitigations from the master
plan level environmental review, along with additional mitigations resulting from the
proposed project.
At this time, the site is relatively free of environmental constraints with a few exceptions:
(1) fugitive dust control is required with the grading operations to incrementally address
regional air quality issues, (2) cultural resources may be present on the site in the form of
archeological and paleontological resources and therefore requires close monitoring before
and during grading operations, (3) the replacement of two mature Monterey Cypress trees
with six 24 inch box minimum Monterey Cypress trees to maintain the scenic highway
qualities of Carlsbad Boulevard, and (4) minor biological impacts associated with the west
side's desilt basin. A biological report outlined the comparative impacts of a west side vs.
east side basin and concluded the west side had far less impacts since lagoon/sensitive
wetland habitat was not being encroached onto. The west side basin's impacts include an
impact of approximately 0.18 acres of coastal sage and the need to transplant a small
population of a List 4 sensitive plant species per the California Nature Plant Society
(Southwestern spiny rush). The basin shown on Exhibit "D" reflects the proposed basin

design that will either be re-designed to avoid or reduce impacts; or be subject to
mitigation. The above items are the focus of this project's Mitigated Negative Declaration
and related mitigation measures which are attached to Planning Commission Resolution
Nos. 3677 and 3678. Any potential environmental impacts resulting from this project are
therefore reduced to levels of insignificance. The Mitigated Negative Declaration
underwent standard State Clearinghouse review because of the project's coastal zone
location. The public review period lasted from May 9 to June 9, 1994. One comment was
received from Mr. Lou Taschner regarding drainage issues. His letter and the City's
response letter are attached to this report.
V. SUMMARY
The master tentative map and hillside development permit applications are consistent with
all applicable legislation and ordinances and is compatible with the project site. Approval
of the project as proposed will allow the implementation of the approved Poinsettia Shores
Master Plan. Based upon the required mitigation measures, no significant adverse
environmental impacts will occur due to implementation of the project. Therefore, staff is
recommending approval of CT 94-01 and HDP 94-03.

RE: Comments concerning drainage contained in
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW FOR KAIZA'S MASTER
TENTATIVE MAP - CT 94-01/HDP 94-03
Dear Mr. Munoz;
I have been representing Dale Schreiber concerning the 1 \
proposed alignment of the Master Drainage solution for what__\
has now become the PONTO BASIN.
JUN a 9 TO
CITY OF CARLSBAD
DEPT.
proj ect.
The State Lands Commission and City of Carlsbad based
on approved documents reserves review and approval of any
DESILTATION BASIN. The comment concerning mitigation for the
WEST SIDE DESILTATION BASIN for issuance of a grading permit
does not include the City of Carlsbad.
I have been unable to get from you or any other person
the specific pipe alignment or desiltation basin design so
that the impacts can be sufficiently analyzed or whether the
80" pipe can wind its way through or around the gas line,
the utility cables in the area, or the three high pressure
sewer lines coming from Leucadia. I object to the City of
Carlsbad completing its review without consideration of the
design of the WEST SIDE DESILTATION BASIN or alignment of
the EIGHTY INCH PIPE which needs to be designed for upwards
of 250 C.F.S. of drainage water entering the lagoon.
'•' •
The impacts of the desiltation basin include not only
the ground upon which it will be located but the impacts of
the spillway and piping system carrying the water into the
lagoon as well as the water which will flow into the lagoon
at a location which currently appears to be a feeding area
for the birds.
. As you will notice, the Biological Report considered
only the physical location of the desiltation basin and not
the remainder of the construction project needed to carry
the drainage water to the lagoon. The report is incomplete
and the statement in item #3 may be correct but the
construction project for the desiltation basin to function
will include construction into the lagoon's delineated
z.
wetland boundary. Whether there are other sensitive areas
has certainly not been addressed in the report. The report
for the eastern basin includes not only the berm but
includes the concrete spillway and the downstream area
adjacent to the lagoon.
I am pleased to note that the biologist has identified
a new growth of Coastal Sage upon the berm of the eastern
desiltation basin which was created in or about 1984.
Apparently/ Coastal Sage can be grown with only a natural —t
watering process on a steep slope. With the proof of this
process, I am assured that the any new berm could support a
much larger area of Coastal Sage as the size of the western
desiltation basin will be at least 4 times the size of the
current eastern desiltation basin.
•- —Mr. Schreiber does not have the monetary resources to
continue to debate with the staff of City of Carlsbad
concerning the alignment of the pipe and the location and O
design of the desiltation basin. The person requesting that ^
the drainage alignment and desiltation basin be located in a
particular location should have the obligation to present
the complete information for review.
In the event that the pipe alignment and desiltation
basin location and design are produced, then and only then
can the impacts for construction and the environment be M
adequately addressed. Mr. Schreiber paid for an eastern pipe \
alignment and a probable design of the eastern desiltation
basin and had the project costed. This alignment and costs
associated therewith are attached as Exhibit A.
Even though I have requested this information on many
occasions, I have never been provided with a specific
alignment or desiltation basin design so that the impacts
associated therewith could be evaluated.
Apparently you and the staff are prepared to recommend
to the City Council of Carlsbad that the alignment and
desiltation basin should be approved without the benefit of
seeing the specific project. That precisely has been my
debate with the staff for the last two years and my position
has not changed.
I implore you to require the specifics of this project
not only because of the impacts of construction and the
environment but also because of the large bermed reservoir
needed to create the desiltation basin adjacent to 101 and
the Least Tern Site.
