OLD ENCINITAS COMMUNITY ADVISORY BOARD
RESOLUTION NO. OE89-07
CASE NO. 88-361 DR/EIA
Findings For Design Review
(Section 23.08.076 Municipal Code)
23.08.072 Regulatory Conclusions - Generally.
A. The project design is inconsistent with the General
Plan, a Specific Plan or the provisions of this Code.
Evidence to Consider:
The proposed is consistent with and allowed by right in both
the present RV-11 zoning of the property and the Residential
5-8 du/acre designation on the Land Use Policy Map of the
City's Draft General Plan.
B. The project design is substantially inconsistent with
the Design Review Guidelines.
Evidence to Consider:
The proposal is in substantial conformance with the City's
Design Review Guidelines in that the home will take advantage
of available views while not significantly impacting views
presently enjoyed by others, is consistent in design among
elevations and with the adjoining areas, features constraint
in the variation of building materials and colors, utilizes
mostly drought tolerant or nature landscape materials
compatible with project design, and otherwise conforms to the
letter and/or intent of the City's adopted design criteria.
C. The proj ect would adversely affect the health,
safety or general welfare of the community.
Evidence to Consider:
The applicant has submitted investigation reports within which
a geologist states that the structure will not be subject to
or contribute to bluff failure within its anticipated 75 year
lifetime. Water and sewer services will be provided to the
property, and there has been no other provided evidence to
suggest that the project would adversely effect public health,
safety, or welfare.
TC/03/CRO4-243WP54(3-13-89-2)
D. The proj ect would tend to cause the surrounding
neighborhood to depreciate materially in appearance or value.
Evidence to Consider:
The proposal reflects a quality of design appearance which is
complimentary to the adjoining areas and thus will not be
materially detrimental to surrounding properties.
E. There is reasonable probability that the land use
and design proposed will be consistent with the General Plan
proposal being considered or studied since the proposed
General Plan and the currently adopted General Plan both
explicitly allow for this type of use and development.
F. There is little or no probability of substantial
detriment to or interference with the future adopted General
Plan if the proposed design is ultimately inconsistent with
the plan, since the project is allowed by the proposed General
Plan.
