The City of Encinitas General Plan Housing Element Update (HEU) was adopted by the City on March 13, 2019. Subsequently, on June 13, 2019, the California Coastal Commission unanimously approved the Local Coastal Program Amendment (LCPA) associated with the City’s Housing Plan Update. On July 10, 2019, the Encinitas City Council adopted Ordinance No. 2019-08, accepting the California Coastal Commission’s LCPA as amended.
Finally, on October 8, 2019, the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) certified the City’s Housing Element. Site 1 is identified in the HEU as Site 07: Jackel Properties. It is comprised of APN 216-041-20 (“Parcel 1;” approximately 0.69 acres) and APN 216-041-21 (“Parcel 2;” approximately 2.3 acres).
The HEU assigns a minimum allocation of 33 residential units to Site 07, if the site is developed at a mixed-use ratio with visitor-serving commercial uses and a minimum of 30 traditional overnight accommodations.
Document Description
The project proposes a mixed-use development consisting of 94 for-lease apartments, a 34- room boutique resort hotel, and 18,261 square feet (SF) of mixed-use development. The project would also include a subterranean parking garage, a walking paseo, pedestrian plaza, and an outdoor seating area. Of the 94 residential apartment units proposed, 75 would be rented at market rate and 19 would be affordable housing units dedicated to “low-income” (80% area median income) qualifying residents; refer to Figure 2.0-3A, Site Plan, and Figures 2.0-4A to 2.0-4F. Additionally, 8 of the 34 guest rooms at the hotel would be available at “economy” rates to ensure a full range of affordability.
Improvements to North Coast Highway 101 are also proposed to allow for adequate
ingress/egress. Vehicular access to the site would be provided via a roundabout constructed along North Coast Highway 101 near the southern boundary of the
project site; refer to Figure 2.0-3B, Conceptual Roundabout Plan. The roundabout would provide connection to a proposed access drive leading into the subject property.
In March 2019, the Encinitas City Council adopted a Housing Element Update (HEU) to its General Plan which provides the City with a coordinated and comprehensive strategy for promoting the production of safe, decent, and affordable housing for all within the City. Mandated by state housing law, the purpose of the HEU is to ensure the City establishes policies, procedures, and incentives to increase the quality and quantity of the City’s housing supply.
