PUBLIC BUILDIPIG ELEPiIENT
OF THE
CHULA VISTA GENERAL PLAN
Foreword
Section 65303 (f) of the Government Code of the State of
California permits a city to include, as part of its General
Plan:
"A public building element showing locations and
arrangements of civic and community centers, public
schools, libraries, police and fire stations, and
other public buildings, including their architecture
and the landscape treatment of their grounds."
This report represents the Public Building Element of the Chula
Vista General Plan. The report is divided into two sections
Section I is intended to provide the Planning Commission and
the City Council with the background for the Public Building
Policy which is presented in Section II.
The purpose of the Public Building Element is to identify existing
and future needs, and to provide general guidance as to where
public buildings should be located in reference to projected
population. The accompanying map illustrates the location of
existing and proposed public buildings.

SECTION I
INTRODUCTION
A. City Council Action & Concern: Basis of the Element
As the population of the City of Chula Vista increases each year,
the need also increases for additional public services and the
buildings necessary to house those services. Recognizing this
need, the City Council unanimously adopted the following amendments
to the Chula Vista General Plan on December 5, 1972, with Resolu-
tion No. 6671.
"PART III
"THE CHULA VISTA GENERAL PLAN - 1990
GOALS OF THE CHULA VISTA PLAN.
"3. Provide adequate and convenient public facilities to
serve anticipated population.
a. Bring neighborhood and community recreation areas
up to accepted standards.
b. Provide one or more large parks in areas best
suited to this use.
' c. Provide for recreational use of a portion of the
waterfront.
d. Continue to develop and improve the Civic Center
__ as a major focus and service center for the
community.
e. Provide for adequate storm drainage, particularly
through preservation of natural channels.
f. Encourage development of Southwestern College as
a major community cultural and educational center.
g. Provide municipally operated facilities, e.g., fire
stations, to insure an adequate level of service
and protection as established by standards and
criteria adopted by the City of Chula Vista.
h. Provide adequate school facilities in order to satisfy
the educational needs for newly developed areas in
accordance with the level of educational services as
established by standards and criteria adopted by the
school districts operating within the City of Chula
Vista.
~~~G
"PART IV
CARRYING OUT THE GENERAL, PLAN
SUBDIVISION AND ZONING CONTROLS TO INSURE ADEQUACY OF PUBLIC
FACILITIES.
New subdivisions will be developed in the nova undeveloped
portions of the Chula Vista Planning Area and zoning changes
will be made in accordance with the General Plan adopted by
the City of Chula Vista, which will create a substantial
impact on existing public facilities, e.g., fire stations
and schools. The character of the future City will be
greatly affected by the quality of the subdivision and
zoning ordinances, and the careful administration of the
subdivision and zoning processes in order to implement this
General Plan.
The requirements for public facilities, in accordance with
necessary and desirable levels of services, are required to
satisfy needs in newly developed areas in accordance With
standards and criteria adopted by the concerned local
agencies..."
Since the adoption of the General Plan Amendments, the Chula Vista
City Council has expressed a desire to further study public facilities
in order to insure that they provide adequate 'and convenient services
to existing as well as to anticipated City residents. As a result
of this concern on the part of the City Council, this new element
to the General Plan was written and contains recommendations for
the expansion of municipal office space, as well as police, fire,
and library facilities. Although not administered by City government,
recommendations for the growth of public schools are also included
because they occupy and influence a significant portion of the total
community land area. Finally, public hospitals and religious
facilities will be examined in this element.
B. Survey of the Public Buildings and Facilities of Chula Vista
The Public Building Element is based upon City Council action, and the
city-planning survey of public buildings and facilities, which is
summarized in the following paragraphs.
CIVIC CENTER
Knight-Gladiuex Plan
In 1968, the City Council authorized the consulting firm of
Knight and Gladiuex to develop a master plan for the long-range
development of the City's Civic Center. This plan supersedes
the Civic Center Sketch Plan, prepared by Williams, Cook, and
74 ~ 3
Mocine, whickz was never adopted by the City Countil. The archi-
tectural firm of John Carl Warnecke and Associates also worked
on this project assisting in developing the configuration of
facilities on the site and assuming primary responsibility for
the preparation of the site plans, landscaping recommendations
and illustrations.
The Knight and Gladiuex report presented: 1) site plans and
perspective illustrations of the plan; 2) analyses of costs;
3) recommended construction phases; and, 4) projected office
space and parking requirements. Basically, the study calls for
one centralized Civic Center complex to serve the City's needs,
This desire for a centralized rather than a decentralized approach
to the Civic Center complex is reflected in the General Plan and
Map for 1990.
The present Civic Center site is sufficiently large to permit
needed expansion of facilities to accommodate Chula Vista's City
government. Recent studies indicate that the existing Civic Center
is appropriately located in proximity to the Third Avenue Business
District and other major elements of central Chula Vista. In the
future, the Civic Center will contain expanded administrative
facilities for the City.
A detailed plan for the future development of the Civic Center
has been separately published and titled, "Civic Center Master
Plan". This has been prepared to properly guide the orderly
development of the Civic Center.
Court Facilities
The South Bay Judicial Service System over the years has undergone
two major changes. The first being the creation of a South Bay .
Judicial District as the result of legislative action in 1952.
The second came about by action of the Board of Supervisors which
consolidated the then existing South Bay Judicial District into
the San Diego Diunicipal Court District on November 1, 1965,

POLIC); FACILITY
Station Locations and Needs
In November 1968, the citizens of Chula Vista passed a 1.5 million
~9Y~
dollar bond issue for a new Police Facility and remodeling of the
Civic Center. As a result of this general obligation bond, the
nets Police Facility became operational in April 1971. At that
time, the policy was established to have one centralized police
center rather than a number of smaller sub-stations. It was
decided to house the new Police Facility in the Civic Center
Complex, as suggested in the Knight and Gladieux Civic Center
Master Plan Study, so as to maximize citizen convenience through
centralization.
While this centralized approach to police services is not in
keeping faith the decentralized concept of fire protection, it
must be remembered that police patrols are constantly on the
streets and respond from varied locations rather than from a
fixed location such as a fire station. Because police patrols
are mobile rather than stationary, it was determined that sub-
stations would not be necessary at this time. Furthermore, the
geographical size of the Chula Vista Planning Area is not so
large or graphically separate at the present time to warrant
sub-stations. Also, the police center is centrally located in
the downtoorn area and on an arterial street at Fourth Avenue,
between E and F Streets, for maximum coverage and transportation
ease.
Support Facilities
The County of San Diego now provides nearly all detention and
jail facilities for all cities in the County. The City of
Chula Vista still provides jail facilities for overnight and
short-term male prisoners. All women and juvenile prisoners are
accommodated by the County. In addition, the County provides a
Sheriff's Department for the protection of unincorporated areas.
The County also maintains the Marshal's force for process serving
and policing the courts.
FIRE FACILITIES
Future Plans for Local Fire Stations
According to the General Plan of the City of Chula Vista, the
population of the Planning Area of this municipality will be approximately
167,000 by 1990. Most of this population will be within the
corporate limits of Chula Vista. Pihile the City's present popu-
lation of about 75,000 is primarily housed in the Central Chula
Vista and Castle Park communities, the future growth will sub-
stantially occur to the east, in the Telegraph Canyon, Bonita and
Lakes communities. This population growth and land use expansion
will require the expansion and redeployment of fiae protection
facilities. The precise size and location of Piro facilities in
1990 will be governed by the precise patterns of g>opulation and land
use by this target year.
If the population projections of the Planning Department are supported
7~~0 5
by time and events, the number of fire stations within Chula Vista
may increase from four to eight, and the number of fire department
personnel may increase from 70 to about 150. The new stations,
which will be located in accordance with standards predicated upon
response time, will be sited in the Telegraph Canyon, Tidelands,
and Bonita communities.
Also seen is the possible eventual City annexation of the County area now
protected by the Dlontgomery Fire District with their single station
at Oxford Street and Fourth Avenue. The same action is possible
for the Bonita-Sunnyside fire District and their main station on
Bonita Road at S•lillow Street. Such an annexation program would
enable the entire planning area to be served with a minimum of stations.
LIBRARY FACILITY
The City of Chula Vista is presently served by a central Library
in the Civic Center Complex on Fourth Avenue, between E and F
Street. In addition, many schools in the area maintain libraries
for the use of their students, and many businesses maintain technical
libraries with specialized books and reference material for their
employees.
The central Library at present is the only public library in the
City of Chula Vista having a full range of goverruaental publications,
technical material, and periodicals. Other specialized services
and facilities housed in the main library include administration,
acquisitions and book repair, main reference and research collections,
special collections, and special programs and exhibits such as
audio-visual.
The City of Chula Vista, on January 22, 1974, commissioned an
architect, George 47heeler AIA, to prepare plans fcr the construction
of a 57,000 square foot public library at the northeasterly corner
of Fourth Avenue and "F" Street, in the Civic Center. This library
building, ~•~hich will be completed by July, 1976, will free the existing
library building for city-administrative use.
The central Library is called upon to serve in the following ways:
1. A central administrative center including the receipt,
processing, and shipping of materials.
2. A central information center for requests that cannot
be handled by other agencies.
3. A central circulation library for the residents of
Chula Vista.
PUBLIC HOSPITAL FACILITIES
In April and November 196E3, the citizens of Chula Vista were asked
to enter into a joint powers agreement with the County of San
Diego for the purpose of establishing a public authority with the
power t-o acquire, construct, maintain, and operate a community
7 ~4a~ s
hospital and related facilities, Tliese two bond elections, to
authorize the construction of a new non-profit community hospital
in C}iula Vista, failed to gain the two-thirds majority required for
passage. However, the expansion of the Bay General fospital at
435 H Street and the recent opening of the new Community Hospital of
Chula Vista at 751 Dora Lane off Telegraph Canyon Road ~•~ill provide
Chula Vista residents a high level of hospital service.
The new Community hospital has 131 beds. Bay General Hospital has
159 beds and modern medical office and laboratory facilities. These
two hospitals have a total of 290 beds and plan to eventually have a
total of about 660 beds.
RELIGIOUS FACILITIES
Religious facilities such as churches, synagogues, temples, and
meeting houses, are an important and prominent feature in every
community. Although perhaps not as integral a part of community
life as in earlier periods of American history, religious facilities
are nevertheless significant to most people. Oftentimes, in addition
to the spiritual aspects of service, these facilities help meet
their members' educational and social needs. Presently, there are
fifty churches within the Chula Vista Planning Area and they encompass
a full range of denominations and faiths.
SCHOOL FACILITIES
The Chula Vista Planning Area is served by tcao school districts:
the Chula Vista City School District servicing students from
kindergarten through the sixth grade, and the Sweetwater Union
High School District inclining junior high school and senior high
school students. In addition, the Sweetwater Community College
District offers a two-year college curriculum for area residents.
All three districts have expanded by annexation at rates equal to
or greater than those of the City of Chula Vista. There is every
indication that this trend will continue.
By 1990, based on the projected Chula Vista Planning Area population,
93 elementary (grades K - 6), 8 junior high schools, and 6 high
schools will be needed, These numbers are based on an average en-
rollment per school of 650 in elementary, 1,500 in junior high,
and 1,800 in high schools. The following ratios, based on the 1974
census statistics, were used for estimating public school attendance:
children per household at the elementary school level, 0,6; at the
junior high school level, 0.3; and at the senior high school level,
0.2.
7 f'S!o ~
Southwestern College will continue to provide two years of higher
education for many of the college age students in Chula Vista. A
second junior college site is planned in the next ten years in the
San Ysidro-Otay Mesa area,
It is assumed that those private and parochial schools which serve
the residents of the Chula Vista planning area will expand to meet
some of this subregion's growing educational demand. These schools
currently educate nearly 1000 local residents, at the grammer school
level.
