Reco
mmended Action
1. Hold a public hearing; and
2. Adoption of a resolution approving a site development plan (SDP 2023-0012) and coastal development permit (CDP 2023-0022) to replace an existing Driving School and Junior Driving School attraction with a new space-themed attraction within the Inner Park Area of Legoland California on property located at One Legoland Drive, Assessor Parcel Number 211-100-09-00, within Planning Area 4 of the Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan, the Mello II Segment of the Local Coastal Program and the Local Facilities Management Zone 13 (Exhibit 1)
Executive Summary
The City Council is being asked to approve a proposal by the Legoland California Theme Park to replace the existing Driving School and Junior Driving School attraction with a new space- themed attraction with an indoor roller coaster, a rotating ride, a children’s play structure and a play area for younger children.
The project is being presented to the City Council because the Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan requires that any development permit that includes structures above 35 feet be reviewed and decided upon by the City Council. One of the proposed structures is to be 43 feet high.
Explanation & Analysis
Legoland California Theme Park, a 132-acre amusement park located near the northeast corner of Palomar Airport Road and Armada Drive, is proposing to replace an existing driving-school themed attraction with a new spaced-themed attraction that is to include:
• An indoor roller coaster within a new single story, 32,319 square foot, 43-foot-tall pre- manufactured steel building
• A secondary ride consisting of three cantilevered arms that go up and down with four rotating gondolas at each end
• A children’s play structure with an alien spaceship theme April 9, 2024
Item #6 Page 1 of 9
• A play area designed for toddlers, with LEGO DUPLO play features, shade cover and seating area
The current and proposed attractions are on 2.38-acres in the inner portion of the park.
Considering their location within the park, the improvements are not easily visible from outside the park borders.
The Legoland California Theme Park is governed by the Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan, and the proposed new attractions are located within Planning Area 4 of the specific plan. A location map is included as Exhibit 2. In keeping with the specific plan, a site development permit and coastal development permit are required to authorize the improvements.
The proposed improvements meet all required development standards listed in the specific plan. Typically, the required permits for these types of improvements are considered and approved by the Planning Commission or City Planner, depending upon their location. However, proposed structures that exceed 35 feet or three levels (namely the 43-foot-tall indoor roller coaster) requires the approval of the City Council, provided that:
• The building does not exceed 45 feet in height and contains no more than three levels • All required setbacks are increased at a ratio of one horizontal foot for every one foot of vertical construction beyond thirty-five feet
• The additional setback area is maintained as landscaped open space The proposed 43-foot-tall indoor roller coaster meets all of these criteria. The proposed building is one level, provides a 55-foot setback where only a 43-foot minimum setback is required
1 and the entire setback area will be landscaped.
The Planning Commission considered the proposed project at a public hearing on Jan. 17, 2024, and voted 6-0-1 (Lafferty; recused), to recommend the City Council approve the project. No community members spoke at the hearing.
A complete description of the project and the staff analysis that supports the requested permit approvals is included in the Planning Commission staff report (Exhibit 3). The Planning Commission’s actions and decisions are included in the attached minutes (Exhibit 4) and resolution (Exhibit 5).
Public notification
A public notice of this meeting, as well as for the Planning Commission hearing, was mailed to both property owners within 600 feet of the project site and occupants of property within 100 feet of the project site and posted consistent with the requirements of the Ralph M. Brown Act, California’s open meeting law.
Information regarding public notification of this item such as mailings, public hearing notices posted in a newspaper of general circulation and on the city’s website are available in the Office of the City Clerk.
1 The Specific Plan requires a 35-foot standard landscape setback from the eastern curb line of Legoland Drive.
Since the proposed structure is eight feet taller than the 35-foot height limit, an additional eight-foot of landscaped setback is required, resulting in a 43-foot minimum setback requirement.

Item #6 Page 2 of 9
The project is also subject to City Council Policy No. 84 - Development Project Public Involvement Policy. The applicant posted a notice of project application sign at a conspicuous location on the site on June 14, 2023. On June 15, 2023, the applicant also mailed the early public notice to property owners located within 600 feet of the project site and to occupants of property located within 100 feet. No comments were received in opposition to this project.
Fiscal An alysis
There is no anticipated fiscal impact from this action.
Next Steps
The applicant will need to submit applications to the city for the review of grading and building permits consistent with all project conditions, applicable regulations and laws. It is anticipated that construction will begin in the final quarter of 2024.
Environmental E valuation
In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act and the CEQA Guidelines, the City Planner has determined that the project qualified for an exemption under CEQA Guidelines Section 15332, In-fill Development Projects. A notice of determination was published on Nov. 30, 2023. No comment letters or appeals were received and consistent with Carlsbad Municipal Code Chapter 21.54, Procedures, Hearings, Notices, and Fees, the City Planner’s written decision is final.
