Dale Schreiber, Carlsbad, questions for Commission. Dedicating a 60 feet easement for access out of project? Temporary blacktop road to beach - will this conflict with driveway into Ponto storage?

All shall be reflected on final map including the 60 foot right of way.
Per hauser in response to lewis - no way Schreiber could be burned. The developer is also conditioned to design and install improvements along Ponto Drive to intersection with Beach Way. Not only will he have to build temporary improvements must also bond and commit for permanent improvements. (Listen to this).
Lewis - Fair share of Carlsbad Boulevard?
Hauser - we looked at different ways to establish fair share - we have conditioned project to construct all improvements to support the development - not conditioned for any additional improvements on Carlsbad Boulevard. Ponto improvements born by the developer and Beach Way.

Linda Very, Carlsbad (Mar Viera), Carlsbad, 6332 Paseo Serra. Oppose Parking Restrictions. Love Carlsbad - live on Cul De Sac last house on the right - trail behind house goes down to where they are saying. Sympathetic to present conditions. I don't belive problem was fine for five years. They used to park on Carrillo Way. There is designated visitor parking. When called over there. Would have to petition for other spaces. Individuals will now park on cul de sac and hike up the trail.
It will push the problem up farther - like it just the way it is now. Wants parking back on Carrillo Way.
Steven Helming, right across from mailboxes. Would like parking situation to stay the same. Maybe talk to Cascada about taking away red curbs.
Road is deemed safe by City Engineer. Is it a safety hazard. If you take any portion and make them no parking it will impact other homeowners on the streets.
Elderly visitors will not be able to stay over night. City Street, we expect to be able to use streets we pay taxes for.
There is algae in storm drain.
Asking Council - please consider this a safety issue.

Greg and Dawn Coss wrote the letter.
Janelle Fennell, 6302 Paseo Descanso, Carlsbad, came forward to address Council. Rent a storage unit to keep two cars in the garage. The Homeowners who are opposed because they are in violation of current neighborhood rules. Those in favor abide by the rules.
Our guests can park on our street. Paseo Bravada no parking.
Rights have been taken away by this parking.
12 cars parked along the street.
Car alarms have gone off on two occassions.
Lack of a good night sleep is an effect on Quality of Life.
There is adequate parking in the Cascada for all residents in condominium community.
Packard - refer to Cascada board Member - Mrs. Elizabeth Gain . . . any Mara Villa Board Members present - president of Rancho Carrillo HOA present. CC&R's for all of Rancho Carrillo apply to neighborhood.
Debra Taylor, 6310 Paseo Descanso, Carlsbad, came forward to address Council. Own her own business. Beginning to feel uneasy in neighborhood. Now looking over her shoulder.
Reading a letter from someone who could not be there - a resident, 6389 Paseo Descanso, spoke about incident of vehicle parked at the corner.
Felt sorry for neighbors that live at foot of hill. Sincerely, Judith King.
John Brent, 6314 Paseo Descanso, 4th house down on road. Within past couple years cars from Cascada - I have to come out of my house and see cars parked across the street, trash and noise.
Spoke in support of restrictions.l Read letter on behalf of Guerraro's (listen for names). Also spoke in support of parking restrictions. Andre and Laura Guerraro ,k 6382 Paseo Descanso.
Lila, new to Paseo Descanso, live in house number 6. Did note that there are cars parked on lower half of road. Have no children and only have two cars and park in garage. If my family or extended members - I wan this to be a win - win - do not want a restriction. Would like name off of list. ONly for parked cars on the other side is what lady thought initially.
Packard - new resident - yes said lady. Did you read CC&R's - did you notice that there are restrictions for parking in the garage.
Carrie Lonyen, Carlsbad, a Cascada resident, came forward to address Council. Only half of Fennell's presentation true. Security company inspects garage. They also give tickets to people parked in wrong places. I feel sorry for people who have visitors and more cars . . .no where to park. Everything painted red. If you have visitors, where are they supposed to park.
Not a safety concern.
Kulchin - you have private security in there - they give warnings and tow cars. Like living in Nazi concentration camp.
Lewis - in the requirements of the home - your CC&R's agreed to paint the curbs red - went to the city and presented it as a fire hazard.
Other cars are over night guests. Are there limitations on how many can live in the home asked Lewis - no just the number of cars.
Hall - confirmed individual didn't like seeing cars in street so petitioned to paint curbs red.
Lewis - those are private streets in the neighborhood. And HOA requested curb red.
David Lyon, renter in Cascada condos. Origin of problem was the painting of curbs red. Initially able to park on Rancho Carrillo, then that right was taken away. Who required who to paint what red??? Parking limited in Cascada now.
Robert Wolfer, Paseo Monona, President of HOA - been working with Descanso homeowners and Cascada homeowners. Have done everything they can. Our CC&R's require - two cars in two car garage and garage cannot be used for other purposes. Difficult to enforce that requirement. If garage is full of storage, cannot park in garage. Been told, that there is plenty of parking in Cascada - 34 visitor spaces that are rarely used in Cascada. I was here when there was an issue on Cassia.
We have tried everything we can to get cars into Cascada. The red curbs in Cascada - the Fire Department came through and said road is too narrow when cars parked on both sides of road.
Lewis - if the Fire Department said one red side not both sides. Some spaces are variance parking. Can request a variance for additional spaces.
Bob Wallin, 6306 Paseo Descanso, in support of Parking Restriction.
KirstinFirella, 6334 Paseo Descanso, am opposed to parking restriction. Conflicted opposition - don't think this is a long term solution. Question - is it an option to have the parking on one side of Carrillo Way open again for the Cascada residents.
Robbie Frankel, 6306 Paseo Descanso, spoke in support of the parking restriction.
41 of 44 homeowners that were home signed petition for parking restrictions on Paseo Descanso.
Dean Nathans, 6351 Paseo Descanso, sympathetic to neighbors at end of street; however, we suggest that we do not want to penalize everyone on the street to solve the problem. Maybe allow permit parking for Paseo Descanso residents through the permit process.
End of Speakers now.
Johnson gave details of length of Carrillo Way - three lanes - the Center line has been moved to the south. Because of turn lane is not enough space for parking. There is a taper of the road - there may be the middle segment where it is 20 feet wide to make it wide enough for parking. Also sight cooridor must be taken into consideration. If Parking on Carrillo Way, space for three or four cars only. Could be concern because this only ingress degress to the communities.
Hall - can you walk us through what has changed in past five years.
Johnson - when roads were built - about 80 % of roads have no parking. On improvement plans that constructed road - there were no parking signs on Carrillo Way - only last couple of years.
Red curb in Cascadao condo units - that is typical in multi-family dwelling units. Fire Marshall will determine that red curb is necessary.
If Fire Marshal said paint the curbs road HOA would have been ordered to contract for painting curb.
Hall - one of the speakers tonight - After this was built and sold, something could have changed. And based on Fire Department inspection - could have been delay in inspection for compliance of conditions of approval.
Packard - if Via Cascada designed and built to allow fire trucks to travel - did the streets not get built to requirement or did trucks get wider. Johnson - when project was built per plans - when the roads are built to allow the one sided parking. Originally engineered for one side parking. packard confirmed that for several years the curbs were not painted in violation of plan. Johnson - do not know if there was a lag.
Chief Crawford - my understanding that this was always intended to be a red curb.
Why not red curb the inside and leave outisde un red asked Johnson? Chief - driveway curbs must be red.
Kulchin - if you did red curb red side and can park on the otehr. Per Crawford - it's an issue relating to the ingress degress width.
Lewis - do we still have a Planner inside right now. No.
Lewis - when projects are approved they were approved with idea that both autos were parked in the garage. And units are designed for 4 people.
Hildabrand - do not know if the units are 1 and 2 bedroom. Should be designed to meet the city's parking regulations.
Lewis commented that had similar situation on Poinsettia.
Blackburn - Did go out there on Paseo Descanso at 8:45 last night. Came here leaning towards denying the appeal and upholding the Traffic Safety Commission decision.
Will support the appeal of the Traffic Safety Commission and support parking restrictions on Paseo Descanso.
Packard - spoke about Board Member of Cascada writing letter asking for City decision.
Will support the appeal of the Traffic Safety Commission appeal - will support the appeal to go full length for Parking Restriction.
Hall - can support colleagues. Is a Quality of Life Issue.

AB #19,910
Cari Dale Public Works Manager and Don Wasko Public Works Superintendent presented the staff report and reviewed a PowerPoint Presentation (on file in the Office of the City Clerk).
Lewis, cant we say "if Possible" for Required plan? State Water Board Requires SSMP and how you do it is up to you said Wasko.
Hall - the STate Board - the Regional Board do not give us a blueprint - what we have developed is specific to Carlsbad Program and System.
HIldabrand - what are the penalties - we have set forth what we are going to do? Or is it a best efforts to comply with what's put out in the plan.
Stone - the Order requires that the Plan to the maximum extent practicable.
To implement with plan.
Hall - say we are going to clean lines every two years but do it every year instead. Order requires that we continuously improve our program to get to 0 spills. Hall concerned that we are out of compliance due to the fact where we set the benchmark.
Lewis - concerned about the fines. Hildabrand - from what I understand - the rates that are set is sufficient to fund the Plan as it is.
When we get NOV's the Board looks at how much we have tried. Fines are based on how well you have tried to eliminate spills. Per Stone, the Board looks at Notices of Violations in the past.
Packard - what level we can be content with?
Stone - we are not asking for additional resources or staff - what we have in our rates can take care of the plan. Just asking that plan be reviewed.
Packard - have had to make changes because of agency forcing the standards.
Hildabrand - is there a possiblity to add wording that will allow us to add verbiage. Stone nothing that prohibits that we can do whatever is possible.
Ball - I think adding words may be fine . .. I don't think it will actually reduce any liability. We will get fined because we have a spill and a number of factors will be considered. What is your level of effort and history. If possible can be added. Would rather diabuse Council that will protect us.
Wasko now reviewing due dates.
Compliance Deadlines reviewed again.
Final elements due August 1, 2009.
Must be submitted by August 2, 2009 to State Water REsources Control Board.
Hall - my understanding that we need to clean every pipe at least once a year 12" and under? How often do we scope- every other year.
Alan Wanamaker, Carlsbad, came forward to address Council. My original concern is that we don't try to go after a fly with a hawotizer. In the original order from Sacramento no direction given on how to combat FOG program. Would urge Council to give direction to Council, if something less than an interceptor can be used, then use something smaller.
Wasko - currently Mr. Wanamaker does not have a grease device at all. Is not contributing to the grease - we will continue to monitor that and wil allow him to use a grease trap.
Hall - there isn't any grandfathering? If a violation you will require an interceptor? Wasko - other measures can be taken to limit the FOG going down the drain to lower the FOG - if you aren't contributing FOG, will not force the installation of the device. Hall - will newer owners be able to self-certify. Wasko - our staff will be inspecting.
Dale - in restaurant business - usually a high turnover in kitchen staff - part is educating the folks working in the kitchen.
Hall - concerning item - cost of doing business - would like to see us bring in a private sector to help us. Would like to take the easiest part (25% of the city and outsource it for three years).
Lewis - maybe a workshop.
Hall - would like to review on how to outsource some of the work.
Hildabrand - we could go out to bid for the crew and vactor truck that is not used right now. Prefer to use least cost alternative.
Hall - am recommending three years so that scope of work can be understood.

Dale Schreiber, Carlsbad, questions for Commission. Dedicating a 60 feet easement for access out of project? Temporary blacktop road to beach - will this conflict with driveway into Ponto storage?

Linda Very, Carlsbad (Mar Viera), Carlsbad, 6332 Paseo Serra. Oppose Parking Restrictions. Love Carlsbad - live on Cul De Sac last house on the right - trail behind house goes down to where they are saying. Sympathetic to present conditions. I don't belive problem was fine for five years. They used to park on Carrillo Way. There is designated visitor parking. When called over there. Would have to petition for other spaces. Individuals will now park on cul de sac and hike up the trail.
It will push the problem up farther - like it just the way it is now. Wants parking back on Carrillo Way.
Steven Helming, right across from mailboxes. Would like parking situation to stay the same. Maybe talk to Cascada about taking away red curbs.
Road is deemed safe by City Engineer. Is it a safety hazard. If you take any portion and make them no parking it will impact other homeowners on the streets.
Elderly visitors will not be able to stay over night. City Street, we expect to be able to use streets we pay taxes for.
There is algae in storm drain.
Asking Council - please consider this a safety issue.

Safety Issue cited.
Spoke about having to swerve to avoid parked cars and illegal u-turns.
Greg and Dawn Coss wrote the letter.
Janelle Fennell, 6302 Paseo Descanso, Carlsbad, came forward to address Council. Rent a storage unit to keep two cars in the garage. The Homeowners who are opposed because they are in violation of current neighborhood rules. Those in favor abide by the rules.
Our guests can park on our street. Paseo Bravada no parking.
Rights have been taken away by this parking.
12 cars parked along the street.
Car alarms have gone off on two occassions.
Lack of a good night sleep is an effect on Quality of Life.
There is adequate parking in the Cascada for all residents in condominium community.
Packard - refer to Cascada board Member - Mrs. Elizabeth Gain . . . any Mara Villa Board Members present - president of Rancho Carrillo HOA present. CC&R's for all of Rancho Carrillo apply to neighborhood.
Debra Taylor, 6310 Paseo Descanso, Carlsbad, came forward to address Council. Own her own business. Beginning to feel uneasy in neighborhood. Now looking over her shoulder.
Reading a letter from someone who could not be there - a resident, 6389 Paseo Descanso, spoke about incident of vehicle parked at the corner.
Felt sorry for neighbors that live at foot of hill. Sincerely, Judith King.
John Brent, 6314 Paseo Descanso, 4th house down on road. Within past couple years cars from Cascada - I have to come out of my house and see cars parked across the street, trash and noise.
Spoke in support of restrictions.l Read letter on behalf of Guerraro's (listen for names). Also spoke in support of parking restrictions. Andre and Laura Guerraro ,k 6382 Paseo Descanso.
Lila, new to Paseo Descanso, live in house number 6. Did note that there are cars parked on lower half of road. Have no children and only have two cars and park in garage. If my family or extended members - I wan this to be a win - win - do not want a restriction. Would like name off of list. ONly for parked cars on the other side is what lady thought initially.
Packard - new resident - yes said lady. Did you read CC&R's - did you notice that there are restrictions for parking in the garage.
Carrie Lonyen, Carlsbad, a Cascada resident, came forward to address Council. Only half of Fennell's presentation true. Security company inspects garage. They also give tickets to people parked in wrong places. I feel sorry for people who have visitors and more cars . . .no where to park. Everything painted red. If you have visitors, where are they supposed to park.
Not a safety concern.
Kulchin - you have private security in there - they give warnings and tow cars. Like living in Nazi concentration camp.
Lewis - in the requirements of the home - your CC&R's agreed to paint the curbs red - went to the city and presented it as a fire hazard.
Other cars are over night guests. Are there limitations on how many can live in the home asked Lewis - no just the number of cars.
Hall - confirmed individual didn't like seeing cars in street so petitioned to paint curbs red.
Lewis - those are private streets in the neighborhood. And HOA requested curb red.
David Lyon, renter in Cascada condos. Origin of problem was the painting of curbs red. Initially able to park on Rancho Carrillo, then that right was taken away. Who required who to paint what red??? Parking limited in Cascada now.
Robert Wolfer, Paseo Monona, President of HOA - been working with Descanso homeowners and Cascada homeowners. Have done everything they can. Our CC&R's require - two cars in two car garage and garage cannot be used for other purposes. Difficult to enforce that requirement. If garage is full of storage, cannot park in garage. Been told, that there is plenty of parking in Cascada - 34 visitor spaces that are rarely used in Cascada. I was here when there was an issue on Cassia.
We have tried everything we can to get cars into Cascada. The red curbs in Cascada - the Fire Department came through and said road is too narrow when cars parked on both sides of road.
Lewis - if the Fire Department said one red side not both sides. Some spaces are variance parking. Can request a variance for additional spaces.
Bob Wallin, 6306 Paseo Descanso, in support of Parking Restriction.
KirstinFirella, 6334 Paseo Descanso, am opposed to parking restriction. Conflicted opposition - don't think this is a long term solution. Question - is it an option to have the parking on one side of Carrillo Way open again for the Cascada residents.
Robbie Frankel, 6306 Paseo Descanso, spoke in support of the parking restriction.
41 of 44 homeowners that were home signed petition for parking restrictions on Paseo Descanso.
Dean Nathans, 6351 Paseo Descanso, sympathetic to neighbors at end of street; however, we suggest that we do not want to penalize everyone on the street to solve the problem. Maybe allow permit parking for Paseo Descanso residents through the permit process.
End of Speakers now.
Johnson gave details of length of Carrillo Way - three lanes - the Center line has been moved to the south. Because of turn lane is not enough space for parking. There is a taper of the road - there may be the middle segment where it is 20 feet wide to make it wide enough for parking. Also sight cooridor must be taken into consideration. If Parking on Carrillo Way, space for three or four cars only. Could be concern because this only ingress degress to the communities.
Hall - can you walk us through what has changed in past five years.
Johnson - when roads were built - about 80 % of roads have no parking. On improvement plans that constructed road - there were no parking signs on Carrillo Way - only last couple of years.
Red curb in Cascadao condo units - that is typical in multi-family dwelling units. Fire Marshall will determine that red curb is necessary.
If Fire Marshal said paint the curbs road HOA would have been ordered to contract for painting curb.
Hall - one of the speakers tonight - After this was built and sold, something could have changed. And based on Fire Department inspection - could have been delay in inspection for compliance of conditions of approval.
Packard - if Via Cascada designed and built to allow fire trucks to travel - did the streets not get built to requirement or did trucks get wider. Johnson - when project was built per plans - when the roads are built to allow the one sided parking. Originally engineered for one side parking. packard confirmed that for several years the curbs were not painted in violation of plan. Johnson - do not know if there was a lag.
Chief Crawford - my understanding that this was always intended to be a red curb.
Why not red curb the inside and leave outisde un red asked Johnson? Chief - driveway curbs must be red.
Kulchin - if you did red curb red side and can park on the otehr. Per Crawford - it's an issue relating to the ingress degress width.
Lewis - do we still have a Planner inside right now. No.
Lewis - when projects are approved they were approved with idea that both autos were parked in the garage. And units are designed for 4 people.
Hildabrand - do not know if the units are 1 and 2 bedroom. Should be designed to meet the city's parking regulations.
Lewis commented that had similar situation on Poinsettia.
Blackburn - Did go out there on Paseo Descanso at 8:45 last night. Came here leaning towards denying the appeal and upholding the Traffic Safety Commission decision.
Will support the appeal of the Traffic Safety Commission and support parking restrictions on Paseo Descanso.
Packard - spoke about Board Member of Cascada writing letter asking for City decision.
Will support the appeal of the Traffic Safety Commission appeal - will support the appeal to go full length for Parking Restriction.
Hall - can support colleagues. Is a Quality of Life Issue.

AB #19,910
Cari Dale Public Works Manager and Don Wasko Public Works Superintendent presented the staff report and reviewed a PowerPoint Presentation (on file in the Office of the City Clerk).
Lewis, cant we say "if Possible" for Required plan? State Water Board Requires SSMP and how you do it is up to you said Wasko.
Hall - the STate Board - the Regional Board do not give us a blueprint - what we have developed is specific to Carlsbad Program and System.
HIldabrand - what are the penalties - we have set forth what we are going to do? Or is it a best efforts to comply with what's put out in the plan.
Stone - the Order requires that the Plan to the maximum extent practicable.
To implement with plan.
Hall - say we are going to clean lines every two years but do it every year instead. Order requires that we continuously improve our program to get to 0 spills. Hall concerned that we are out of compliance due to the fact where we set the benchmark.
Lewis - concerned about the fines. Hildabrand - from what I understand - the rates that are set is sufficient to fund the Plan as it is.
When we get NOV's the Board looks at how much we have tried. Fines are based on how well you have tried to eliminate spills. Per Stone, the Board looks at Notices of Violations in the past.
Packard - what level we can be content with?
Stone - we are not asking for additional resources or staff - what we have in our rates can take care of the plan. Just asking that plan be reviewed.
Packard - have had to make changes because of agency forcing the standards.
Hildabrand - is there a possiblity to add wording that will allow us to add verbiage. Stone nothing that prohibits that we can do whatever is possible.
Ball - I think adding words may be fine . .. I don't think it will actually reduce any liability. We will get fined because we have a spill and a number of factors will be considered. What is your level of effort and history. If possible can be added. Would rather diabuse Council that will protect us.
Wasko now reviewing due dates.
Compliance Deadlines reviewed again.
Final elements due August 1, 2009.
Must be submitted by August 2, 2009 to State Water REsources Control Board.
Hall - my understanding that we need to clean every pipe at least once a year 12" and under? How often do we scope- every other year.
Alan Wanamaker, Carlsbad, came forward to address Council. My original concern is that we don't try to go after a fly with a hawotizer. In the original order from Sacramento no direction given on how to combat FOG program. Would urge Council to give direction to Council, if something less than an interceptor can be used, then use something smaller.
Wasko - currently Mr. Wanamaker does not have a grease device at all. Is not contributing to the grease - we will continue to monitor that and wil allow him to use a grease trap.
Hall - there isn't any grandfathering? If a violation you will require an interceptor? Wasko - other measures can be taken to limit the FOG going down the drain to lower the FOG - if you aren't contributing FOG, will not force the installation of the device. Hall - will newer owners be able to self-certify. Wasko - our staff will be inspecting.
Dale - in restaurant business - usually a high turnover in kitchen staff - part is educating the folks working in the kitchen.
Hall - concerning item - cost of doing business - would like to see us bring in a private sector to help us. Would like to take the easiest part (25% of the city and outsource it for three years).
Lewis - maybe a workshop.
Hall - would like to review on how to outsource some of the work.
Hildabrand - we could go out to bid for the crew and vactor truck that is not used right now. Prefer to use least cost alternative.
Hall - am recommending three years so that scope of work can be understood.
