PUBLIC HEARINGS
1. REZONE 85-
Proposal:
Consideration of an application to subdivide 17 acres into
five parcels and to rezone the area from CM (Commercial
Manufacturing) to PD (Planned Development) District. The
property is located at the south portion of the City and is
bordered by the San Diego Freeway and Camino Capistrano to
the east; an automobile agency to the north, the AT&SF
Railroad to the west, and vacant land to the south. The
item was reviewed by Council on December 17, 1985, with
direction to refer the item to the Planning Commission for
report on the issues of grading and landform alterations,
tree preservation plan, construction phasing, setbacks for
building areas, and graphics depicting views of the project.
Applicant:
Kaiser Development Company, 2121 Palomar Airport Road, Suite
201, P. O. Box 308, Carlsbad, 92008-0060, Attention Mitch
Ritschel.
Written Communications:
Report dated March 18, 1986, from the Director of Community
Planning and Development, forwarding information regarding
-4- 3/18/86
345
the modified project and setting forth changes recommended
by staff relative to tree preservation, grading/landform
alteration, and development standards. The report advised
that as proposed by the applicant, the project was in
conflict with the goals and objectives of the General Plan
due to the addition of a 3 -story building. The report set
forth the March 11th Planning Commission recommendations,
including direction that the Comprehensive Development Plan
be amended to include all of the proposed changes and be
submitted for Commission review on March 25, 1986. Staff
recommended the Public Hearing be opened and continued to
April 1, 1986.
Exhibits were on display and the Director of Community
Planning and Development advised that there were three
significant areas of disagreement between the applicant and
the Planning Commission: (1) an increase in the proposed
square footage from 156,000 to 176,000; (2) the addition of
a 3 -story building; and, (3) a proposal to allow hotel/motel
uses on all five lots. He noted that the Commission would
finalize their recommendation following review of the
revised Comprehensive Development Plan on March 25th. Susan
Tebo, Associate Planner, made an oral presentation,
summarizing the areas of disagreement.
Public Hearing:
Notice having been given as required by law, Mayor Schwartze
opened the Public Hearing and the following persons
responded:
(1) Frank Rice, representing the applicant, Kaiser
Development Company, advised that even with City
support of their proposal, the project was not feasible
due to approximately $1 million in off-site improvement
costs. He discussed the following four areas in which
there was disagreement with the Planning Commission
recommendations:
Setbacks - setbacks of 125 feet recommended for Lots 2
and 3 and setbacks of 75' for Lots 1, 4, and 5; a slide
presentation was made.
Building Heights - a single 3 -story building had been
proposed due to the large number of physical
constraints limiting their ability to use the surface
of the land. Mr. Rice recommended the 3 -story building
be located on Lot 5 since it was the lowest parcel on
the entire site. He noted that the first story would
be slightly below grade and the use of a berm and
-5- 3/18/86
landscaping would make it appear to be a 2 -story
building.
Permitted Land Uses - office uses proposed on Lot 5; a
restaurant use on Lots 2 and 3; a conference center on
Lot 3; and, hotel/motel uses on all five lots, but
ultimately constructed on only two lots. _
Square Footage of Project - increased square footage
necessary due to escalating costs and loss of acreage
to the Stonehill freeway off -ramp. He stated the
increase was reasonable since only 408 of the land area
was devoted to building, parking, and roads, leaving
the balance of the site devoted to tree preservation,
open space, and landscaping. He stated there was no
opposition from residents. Mr. Rice reiterated their
inability to pay full purchase price without City
assistance due to the $1 million off-site costs, noting
the property is in the redevelopment area, and the
widening of Camino Capistrano was listed as a possible
public improvement. He advised that the issue had not
been discussed with staff.
(2) Russell Burkett, 29520 Spotted Bull Lane, San Juan
Capistrano, complimented staff and Council on their
position on tree preservation and cited concerns
regarding City involvement in the purchase of property.
He stated opposition to any financial participation and
advised that many residents would be opposed to the
project if it were larger.
There being no further response, Mayor Schwartze closed the
Hearing with the right to re -open at any time.
Council Discussion:
Discussion ensued and Council stated general opposition to
financial participation, three-story buildings, and flexible
multi -uses on the various lots. Concern was cited with
reoccurring last minute changes and an apparent communication
problem between the applicant and the City. Council
concurred that the applicant may have to make a decision
whether to continue with the project if escalating costs
make the project unfeasible; that community values could not
be subjugated to the applicant's wishes. There was general
concurrence that the issue of setbacks could be examined
further. Councilman Bland suggested one plan be allowed to
go through the entire process and then the decision made
whether to proceed based on the merits of the plan.
Mr. Rice stated that every effort had been made to put
together a project which would not require public
assistance, but due to increased costs and loss of property
to the freeway ramp, a recent financial model indicated the
-6- 3/18/86
347
project was not feasible without assistance. He discussed
his perception of the increased square footage and the
rationale for making last minute changes, stating that the
current plan responded to the City's major objectives.
Mayor Schwartze suggested the applicant contact staff
regarding the request for funding of off-site improvements and
discussion ensued regarding the suggested review schedule.
Continuation of Hearing to April 15:
It was moved by Councilman Bland, seconded by Councilman
Hausdorfer, and unanimously carried to continue the Public
Hearing to the meeting of April 15, 1986.
2. AMENDMENT TO TITLE 9 OF THE MUNICIPAL CODE - VEHICLE RENTALS
AND LEASING (LAND USE PARKING STANDARDS) (418.3)
Proposal:
Consideration of an amendment to the Municipal Code to
address parking requirements for vehicle rental and leasing.
Applicant:
This was a City -initiated Public Hearing.
Written Communications:
Report dated March 18, 1986, from the Director of Community
Planning and Development, forwarding proposed parking
standards for vehicle rental and leasing. The report
advised that existing requirements were the same as those
required for new vehicle sales. The proposed requirements
would be the same as those applied to building equipment
sales, since that requirement relates to the number of
vehicles operated in conjunction with the business.
Tom Tomlinson, City Planner, made an oral report, and noted
screening requirements set forth in the amendment.
Public Hearing:
Notice having been given as required by law, Mayor Schwartze
opened the Public Hearing and, there being no response,
closed the Hearing with the right to re -open at any time.
Notification of Affected Property Owners/Businesses:
Discussion ensued regarding notification of affected persons
and there was concurrence with Councilman Friess' suggestion
that affected property owners and businesses be notified
prior to adoption of the regulations.
Introduction of Ordinance:
The City Attorney read the title of the Ordinance next in
