Section 2. Discretionary Action(s) Findings

Based on the findings for a Major Use Permit as per Encinitas Municipal Code Section 30.74.070 (Use Permit) and the aforementioned analysis, City Council has made the following findings to support the approval, with conditions:

Finding for Major Use Permit Explanation of Finding

1. The location, size, design or operating characteristics of the proposed project will be incompatible with or will adversely affect or will be materially detrimental to adjacent uses, residences, buildings, structures or natural resources, with consideration given to, but not limited to:

a. The inadequacy of public facilities, services and utilities to serve the proposed project,

The proposed site modifications and reduction in the number of units, with the conditions of approval and mitigation measures, will be compatible with and not adversely affect the adjacent uses, residences, building structures or natural resources. Existing public facilities exist or conditioned to be constructed to serve the proposed project.

b. The unsuitability of the site for the type and intensity of use or development which is proposed, and

No change in intensity of the site is proposed with the modifications. The project, with the implementations of the conditions of approval and mitigation measures, will result in a project that is suitable for the site.

c. The harmful effect, if any, upon environmental quality and natural resources of the City;

Stronger conditions as identified with coordination with the California Coastal Commission have been incorporated to protect the environment and natural resources. The project, with the conditions of approval, will not have a harmful effect upon the environmental quality and natural resources of the City.

2. The impacts of the proposed project will adversely affect the policies of the Encinitas General Plan or the provisions of this Code; or

No changes to the operational characteristics have been made with the project modifications. The proposed use, as conditioned, is consistent with the policies of the General Plan and applicable provisions of the VSC zone, wherein a timeshare requires the approval of a Major Use Permit. The timeshare will not adversely affect the policies of the General Plan or Municipal Code.

3. The project fails to comply with any other regulations, conditions or policies imposed by this Code.

The project, as conditioned, demonstrates compliance with the applicable policies of the General Plan and the standards for the VSC Zone.

Based upon the findings for a Design Review Permit as per Encinitas Municipal Code Section 23.08.080 and the aforementioned analysis, City Council has made the following findings to support the approval, with conditions: Findings for Design Review Permit Explanation of Finding

1. The project design is inconsistent with the General Plan, a Specific Plan, or the provisions of the Municipal Code.

The proposed color changes to be of earth tone as requested by Coastal Commission, landscaping and best management practices for stormwater purposes are consistent with the provisions of the General Plan, North 101 Corridor Specific Plan and the Local Coastal Program. The design of the timeshare/hotel and site improvements are consistent with the Design Review recommendations included in the North 101 Corridor Specific Plan.

2. The project design is substantially inconsistent with the Design Review Guidelines.

The modifications are consistent with the North 101 Corridor Specific Plan Design Guidelines. A detailed analysis of facts supporting a finding of substantial consistency with the applicable City Design Guidelines is presented in the ‘Design Guidelines Consistency’ section of the staff report. The proposed project color change and landscape site improvement elements will enhance the image of the property and contribute positively to the surrounding area.

3. The project would adversely affect the health, safety, or general welfare of the community.

No evidence has been submitted or received to demonstrate that the proposed modifications would adversely affect the health, safety, or general welfare of the community. The project has been conditioned appropriately to ensure that the health, safety, and general welfare of the community is maintained.

Based upon the findings for a Coastal Development Permit as per Encinitas Municipal Code Section 30.80.090, and the aforementioned analysis, City Council has made the following findings to support the approval, with conditions:

allowable land use, setbacks, lot coverage, landscaping, building height and parking.

2. The proposed development conforms with Public Resources Code Section 21000 and following (CEQA) in that there are no feasible mitigation measures or feasible alternatives available which would substantially lessen any significant adverse impact that the activity may have on the environment.

An Environmental Impact Report was prepared for the project on September 1, 2005, which included mitigation measures still applicable to the current project design. Under the California Environmental Quality Act, an Addendum to a previously certified Environmental Impact Report (EIR) may be prepared if minor additions are proposed to a project and the changes do not result in new significant environmental effects. An Environmental Initial Study was conducted to support the Addendum to the EIR.

3. For projects involving development between the sea or other body of water and the nearest public road, approval shall include a specific finding that such development is in conformity with the public access and public recreation policies of Section 30200 et. seq. of the Coastal Act.

The proposed project is located between the sea and the nearest public road. Part of the project includes a pedestrian path to ensure public access through the site as presently offered is maintained. View outlooks are included and the path connects to a sidewalk on North Coast Highway 101 that leads to a pedestrian crossing across North Coast Highway 101 to further connect to the future Carlsbad trail, which is to be located on the west side of North Coast Highway 101.

No new lots are proposed by this application. All necessary on- and off-site improvements are in place or are conditioned to be provided as part of this project. All utilities and services are in place for the proposed project.

The above environmental determination and findings are supported by the minutes, maps, and exhibits, all of which are herein incorporated by reference.

9. Where basement retaining walls abut property lines, easements, etc. the applicant shall ensure that the width of required shoring is accounted for in the basement dimensions so that there is no encroachment into the public right-of-way.

10. This project proposes construction of an underground garage. The drainage for the garage access ramp shall be designed to intercept all runoff and ensure that no storm water may enter the garage. The system to drain wastewater from the garage shall be connected to the sewer system.

11. The developer shall design and have approved the shoring and construction dewatering systems necessary for the construction of the underground garage prior to issuance of any grading permit for the project.

12. No permanent dewatering system shall be allowed for the underground garage. The underground garage shall be designed to withstand the hydrostatic pressure without any dewatering.

13. All proposed trash enclosures shall be fitted to comply with Storm Water Best Management Practice requirements. The trash enclosures shall have an impervious, non-combustible roof that will not allow rainwater to enter the enclosure. The enclosure shall be lockable and locked when not in use.
