PROJECT DESCRIPTION
® Roy Sapa'u, City Planner
The proposed project includes a request for a Minor Use Permit to construct a new oversized
detached garage, workshop and storage area on a property developed with an existing single -
family home and associated site improvements. The proposed combined detached uses are
secondary to the primary use of the existing single- family residence.
ITEM NAME: MOOREs GARAGE AND STORAGE ADDITION
PROJECT NUMBER: 18 -126 MIN
DECEMBER 11, 2018
The proposed project includes the following:
• Construction of a detached garage /workshop consisting of 1,560 square feet on the
second level and a storage area of 1,560- square feet on the first level located in the
northeast portion of the property. Materials and colors for the detached structure include
a red clay tile roof, light brown stucco, decorative wood trellis elements and window
detailing consistent with the design of the existing single - family home.
• The construction of a new paver and DG driveway for access to the first floor storage
area.
• The planting of nine new 10- gallon Sycamore trees across the west, north and east
sides of the new detached structure for screening consistent with the Fire Department
approved planting list within the High -Fire Severity Zone of Encinitas.
PROJECT ANALYSIS
Background
The site currently has an existing 5,671 - square foot residence with an attached 970- square foot
garage and an 800- square foot detached cabana on a 2.106 net acre site. The detached
cabana was approved on March 7, 2000 with Case No. 99 -292 MIN (DCD- 2000 -019). The
residence was constructed with Building Permit No. 97 -969 and the detached cabana with
Building Permit No. 00 -127.

Minor Use Permit
Pursuant to EMC section 30.48.040G1, the area of any detached accessory structure and
detached private garage, shall not exceed 1,200 square feet or 50 percent of the living area of
the primary residence, whichever is less. However, additional area and height may be
authorized upon issuance of a Minor Use Permit. The project proposes a detached
garage/workshop consisting of 1,560 square feet on the second floor and a storage area of
1,560 square feet on the first floor. The existing 800 - square foot cabana onsite today will
remain. Together, the detached garage/workshop, storage area and existing cabana structures
total 3,920 square feet, which exceeds 50 percent of the living area of the residence. In
addition, the 1,560- square foot garage exceeds the 1,000 maximum allowed area for a
detached garage.
The addition of the detached garage/workshop and storage on the northeast portion of the site
is compatible with the surrounding neighborhood character. The proposed structure is located
approximately 170 feet from a single- family residence to the east and 250 feet to the most
adjacent residence to the south. The lower floor of the two -story structure is buried on one
elevation and partially buried on two other sides of the structure. Additionally, abundant
screening with the use of trees is proposed on three sides of the structure. The accessory use
is subordinate to the existing single- family residence as a secondary use to the property, as
discussed further in the findings below.
PUBLIC NOTICE AND PARTICIPATION
Citizen Participation Program
A Citizen Participation Program (CPP) meeting was held on July 7, 2018, at the project site.
Fourteen members of the public attended the meeting in addition to the project applicant.
Concerns raised included: the bulk and mass of the structure, height of the structure, the
appearance of the north elevation, landscape screening, garage doors, and a general question
was raised about the use of the new access driveway.
The applicant has coordinated with the neighbors to reduce the size of the building, reduced the
plate height, added windows, trellises and other architectural elements, and provided screen
trees on three sides of the structure. The access has been clarified to all CPP attendees for
easier ingress and egress to the lower level storage area.
Public Notice
The Notice of Pending Action on the Minor Use Permit and Coastal Development Permit was
mailed on November 29, 2018, to all property owners and occupants within 500 feet of the
project site and to anyone who requested such notice in writing, in compliance with Encinitas
Municipal Code Sections 30.01.070 and 30.80.080 and Government Code Sections 65090,
65091 and 65092, as applicable. Additionally, as a courtesy, the notice was posted at City Hall
and on the Development Services Department's Internet site under "Public Notices" and via e-
Project Source.

Administrative Hearing
An Administrative Hearing was held pursuant to EMC Section 30.08.080 for consideration of the
Minor Use Permit and Coastal Development Permit request on Tuesday, November 13, 2018, at
5 p.m. in the Council Chambers. Staff, the applicant's representatives and three neighbors
attended the administrative hearing. An adjacent neighbor located on 3451 Toscano Court
raised concerns regarding a temporary storage container located onsite, the removal of a railing
adjacent to Wishbone Way and the storage of vehicles within an existing orchard on the
northerly portion of the property. Additionally, a request was made from the neighbors for
additional landscape screening within the orchard and around the perimeter of the proposed
detached garage and storage area. Both the neighbors and applicant's representative agreed
to the language in the added Conditions SCA-4, SCA -5 and SCA -6 to address all of these
issues during the building permit process and construction process. No other concerns were
raised at the public hearing.
ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS
The applicant is proposing the construction of a detached oversized garage/workshop and
storage area. The project has been determined to be exempt from environmental review
pursuant to California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Section 15303(e). Section
15303(a) exempts from environmental review the construction of a new detached
garage/workshop and storage area. No historic resources are affected by the demolition work
proposed with the project. None of the exceptions in Section 15300.2 exist.
DISCUSSION
The proposed project is in conformance with the goals and policies of the General Plan and
Chapters 30.16 (Residential Zone) and 30.48 (Accessory Structures) of the Encinitas Municipal
Code. The project meets all of the applicable development standards for the RR Zone, include
size of the structure with the issuance of the Minor Use Permit.
FINDINGS
Based on the findings for a Minor Use Permit per Encinitas Municipal Code Section
30.74.070 and the aforementioned analysis, the Development Services Director has made
the following findings to support the approval, with conditions:
