1. 7~ZC proposed dr;veZor»nnnt as dnscribcd by t~zo General UcveZopmcn~ Plan and
DeveZop~nent Schedule is in luxrrnong with the provisions of l:he G~iula Vista Cent ~uZ 'Zan.
( The General Plan designates the area as a regional shopping center with h'gh density
residential on the north side of ti Street and single family densities nca by. The

2. A Planned Communitg L'eveZopm~ra can be initiated by establishment of speci-ic uses
or specific sectior~aZ development plans within two gears of the establishment f the
Planned Corrmrunitg Zone.
The developer proposes to start development in this area vrithir. the next ear. If
development does not take place within tti~ro years the City can review this proposal
on its own initiative.
3. In the case of proposed residential development, that such development ~~~i,ZZ constitute
a resideritiaZ environment of sustained desirability arzd stability; af•cl that it will be i.n
har~rnong with or provide corrmati~~Ze variety to the character of the surroi.srfiing a.~ea, and
that the sites proposed for pu:oZic .facilities, suer as schools, playgrounds a par~a, are
adequate to sez've the anticipated population and appear acceptable to the pubZ'c author-
ities having jurisdiction thereof.
The residential developments as proposed on the plan will be in harmony ith the
spirit of the City's Hillside Ordinance, with the natural open spaces in the project,
and vrith the lo4r density character of the adjacent Bonita area. The pro osed elemen-
tary school and park have been revievred and approved by the Chula Vista chool District
' and the Chula Vista Parks and Recreation Department and are adequate to serve the
anticipated population of the area. These factors together with the rec rrmended
conditions of approval ~~rill result in a residential environment of sustained desir-
ability and stability.
4. In the•case of proposed industrial and research uses, that such deveZopee t will be
.appropriate in area, location, and overaZZ design to the purpose intended; th t the design
and development standards are suer as to create a research or industrial envi onment of
sustained desirabiZitg and stabiZitg; and that such development will meet per ormar:ce.
standards established bg this chapter:
There are no industrial or research uses proposed in this plan, therefor this
finding is not applicable.
~. In the case of institutional, recreational, and other similar nonresident aZ uses,
that such development will be appropriate in area, location and overaZZ pZann ng to the
purpose proposed, and that svrrourzding areas are protected from ang adverse e fects from
such develcr,.-:ent..
The recreational commercial uses proposed are separated from the residen ial areas
by natural open space, I-805, and H Street, thereby protecting them from any adverse
effects from such development. The proximity of she site to the freewa and a
major thoroughfare, and its central location with regard to the Chula Vi to planning
area renders it app;op~°iate for these recreational uses.
6. That the streets ar.d thoroughfares are suitable and adequate to carry the antici-
pated traffic thereon.
~- The Department of Pu51ic tti~orks and the City Traffic Frrgineer have review d the
streets and thoroughfares proposed and find they are suitable and adequa e to
carry the traffic anticipated.
7. That ang proposed commercial development can be justified economically at the
Zncatiorz(s) proposed and will provide adequate conmrercz-aZ facilities of the pcs
needed at such. Zocat~.vn (s) proposed.
The proposed commercial development has been justified at the location p~oposed
by the market analysis dated r=ebruary 1974 and prer~ared by the Real Esta e
Research Corporation.
