La Costa Town Square Update

Categories: Carlsbad, La Costa, La Costa Oaks, La Costa Town Square

As you may know, the City of Carlsbad held their planning commission meeting last Wednesday, July 1st to discuss La Costa Town Square.

Pat O’Day – the general contractor of the project ran the presentation. The project was started in 1972. This is the third revision. As part of the project, the developer is $9.5M toward traffic fees.

Some of the restaurants interested in coming to our neighborhood are:
St. Tropez Bakery and Bistro, The Chop House, The Daily Grill. Tommy Bahama has expressed interest in being one of the retail stores. They expect to have a drug store and two gas stations – one with a car wash.

As of right now, Vons has the lead position to be the grocery anchor. We have heard from a number of neighbors that they would really love to have a Bristol Farms for the daily fresh dinners.

Some of the neighborhood participants requested – The Cheesecake Factory, PF Changs, Ruth’s Chris, Souplantation,

Our estimate was that about 70% of the attendees were for the project and about 30% were against it.

Although it does look like the project will go through, we DO have a say in the tenants. The developer DOES want to hear what we think. They do want to be able to go to prospective tenants and show our feedback.

If you have an opinion, PLEASE contact the developer and let them know what you would or would not like to see in your neighborhood.

Please contact Gretchen at Aspen Properties to express your opinions and desires.  Her email is:  gearly@aspen-prop.com.

Also, please visit our blog and leave comments under the La Costa Oaks Neighbors page. We will forward any information to Gretchen.
