California Environmental Quality Act DeterminationThe project has been determined to be exempt from environmental review pursuant to CaliforniaEnvironmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Section 15301 (a). This CEQA Guideline Sectionexempts existing facilities which involve the interior or exterior alteration of things such asinterior partitions, plumbing and electrical conveyances. The key consideration for thisexemption is whether a project involves negligible or no expansion of an existing use. Currently, the existing restaurant building totals 2,550 square feet. The project also proposes thedemolition of 150 square feet. The project also includes a new outdoor patio area totaling 321square feet. The new 321-square foot patio area consists of 176 square feet of existing buildingarea that has been converted to new patio space, and 145-square foot of new patio space. Withthe proposed demolition and conversion, the proposed interior building area will be 2,224square feet. The project will result on less building area then what is existing. Therefore, theproject meets the criteria for the exemption. None of the exceptions listed in Section 15300.2exist for the proposed project.Section 2. Discretionary Action(s) FindingsBased on the findings for a Use Permit as per Encinitas Municipal Code Section30.74.070 (Use Permit), the Planning Commission has made the following findings tosupport the approval, with conditions:Finding for Use PermitExplanation of Finding1. The location, size, design oroperating characteristics of theproposed project will beincompatible with or willadversely affect or will bematerially detrimental toadjacent uses, residences,buildings, structures or naturalresources, with considerationgiven to, but not limited to:a. The inadequacy of publicfacilities, services andutilities to serve theproposed project,The location, size, design or operating characteristicsof the proposed project will not be incompatible with,or adversely affect, or be materially detrimental toadjacent uses, residences, buildings, structures ornatural resources, as discussed below.The Camino Village Plaza shopping center wasconstructed prior to the City's incorporation in 1986.All public utilities are in place to serve the project andthere are no environmental issues associated with theproject.b. The unsuitability of the sitefor the type and intensity ofuse or development whichis proposed, andThe site is suitable for the type and intensity ofdevelopment proposed. The existing building area willbe reduced by approximately 326 square feet. Theexisting building area is 2,550 square feet, and withthe proposed demolition and conversion, theproposed interior building area will be 2,224 squarefeet. The project will result in less building area thanwhat is existing on the project site to date.The proposed wall signs and menu board signage aresuitable for the type and intensity of developmentproposed on-site. The signage is in scale with thebuilding and is compatible with the surroundingbuildings and uses. The height, length and area of thesigns are proportional to the height and length of thebuilding walls and metal canopy, on which they arebeing placed. The menu board signs are setback fromthe public street and softened with low landscapeplantings. Finding for Use PermitExplanation of FindingThe proposed outdoor patio use is also a suitable usefor the site. The patio will be located within an existingcommercial shopping center, where non-residentialdevelopment is presently concentrated. A wide rangeof commercial activities, including general retail,restaurant, and other service-oriented usescharacterize the land uses within the shopping center.The outdoor patio will be compatible with the existingcommercial uses, and as conditioned, will notnegatively affect or conflict with the residentialdevelopment that is located to the west of the projectsite. The outdoor dining patio is located approximately570 feet away from the nearest residentialdevelopment.The project has been conditioned appropriately toensure that the proposed use will not have anyadverse impacts on the surrounding uses orneighborhood.c. The harmful effect, if any,upon environmental qualityand natural resources of theCity;The project will not have a harmful effect onenvironmental quality or natural resources. Theproject scope involves a minor alteration to an existingstructure. The project is exempt from environmentalreview pursuant to California Environmental QualityAct (CEQA) Guidelines Section 15301 (Class 1-Existing Facilities), subsection (a), of the CaliforniaEnvironmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, whichexempts minor exterior alterations to existingstructures. The project meets the criteria for theexemption. None of the exceptions listed in Section15300.2 exist for the proposed project.2.

The project fails to comply withany other regulations,conditions or policies imposedby this Code.The outdoor area shall also comply with EMC Chapter9.32 (Noise Abatement and Control) and Chapter30.40 (Performance Standards). Based on the findings for a Design Review Permit as per Encinitas Municipal CodeSection 23.08.080 (Design Review) and the aforementioned analysis, the PlanningCommission has made the following findings to support the approval, with conditions:Finding for Design ReviewExplanation of Findinga. The project design is inconsistent with theGeneral Plan, a Specific Plan or theprovisions of this Code.The project is consistent with the applicablepolicies of the General Plan. The project islocated in the General Commercial zone, andas intended by the General Plan, the project isa commercial use and located in an areawhere other commercial uses areconcentrated. The project will authorize a newrestaurant tenant to occupy a building that hasbeen sitting vacant for some time. The projectwill contribute to the elimination of blighted orunderutilized commercial properties along ElCamino Real, consistent with the goals andpolicies of the General Plan.The project is consistent with the developmentstandards in the Municipal Code includingChapter 30.20 (Commercial Zones), andChapter 30.80 (Coastal Development Permit).The project meets all of the applicabledevelopment standards for the GeneralCommercial (GC) zoning district includingsetbacks, lot coverage, floor area ratio, off-street parking requirements, landscaping, andbuilding height.b. The project design is substantiallyinconsistent with the Design ReviewGuidelinesThe project design is consistent with the City'sDesign Guideline recommendations.The project updates the existing buildingarchitecture with a more contemporary design.The building massing and scale is reducedthrough breaks in the wall planes and the use ofvarious building materials, which help providearchitectural interest, shadows and visual relief.The project's varied composition of buildingmaterials (i.e. natural wood, neutral stucco witha darker stucco base element, metal awnings,and metal roof elements etc.), contribute to themodern architectural design theme.The new outdoor patio achieves human scale atthe ground level. The proposed fencing, pottedlandscaping, and horizontal metal awningscontribute to the human scale of the project.Additionally, the outdoor area will be used for Finding for Design ReviewExplanation of Findingopen-air dining and gathering, activating theshopping center and creating a transitionbetween indoor and outdoor uses. The newoutdoor space will contributes to the positiveimage for the shopping center as viewed fromthe street.The project proposes new wall signs, a canopysign, and menu board signs that are in scalewith the proposed development. The design ofthe proposed signage is visually tied togetherthrough the use of a coordinated color scheme(i.e. all channel letters are white, which ties inwith the white and green Starbucks logo, alldrive-thru signs are black with white lettering).The signage design complements the neutralcolor scheme of the building.The installation of updated landscaping aroundthe perimeter of the building complements themodern architectural design of the building. Theselected plant palette provides pops of color,texture and interest to complement thearchitectural elevations.c. The project would adversely affect thehealth, safety, or general welfare of thecommunity.The proposed use is compatible with theimmediately surrounding uses. No evidence thathas been submitted or discovered wouldsuggest that the proposed project wouldadversely affect the health, safety, or generalwelfare of the surrounding uses, residences orstructures.The project has been conditioned appropriatelyto ensure compatibility between the proposeduse and the surrounding uses, and to preservethe health, safety and general welfare of thecommunity.Additionally, the project is exempt from therequirements of CEQA, and no adverse impactsto the environment are anticipated.d. The project would tend to cause thesurrounding neighborhood to depreciatematerially in appearance or value.The proposed project is compatible with thesurrounding structures and uses. The neutralcolor scheme and building materials willcomplement the surrounding buildings withinthe shopping center. The proposed facadechange will give the vacant restaurant buildinga modernized and updated image, while Finding for Design ReviewExplanation of Findingmaintaining a design that is complementary tothe adjacent buildings and structures.No evidence has been identified or receivedthat would suggest that the proposed projectwould cause the surrounding neighborhood todepreciate materially in appearance or value.The project will eliminate a vacant buildingfrom the unoccupied commercial buildingstock within the City, which contributes to theelimination of blighted or underutilizedcommercial properties along El Camino Real.Based on the findings for a Coastal Development Permit as per Encinitas Municipal CodeSection 30.80.090 and the aforementioned analysis, the Planning Commission has madethe following findings to support the approval, with conditions:Findings for Coastal Development PermitExplanation of Finding1.
