RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CHULA
VISTA, URGING THE LEAGUE OF CALIFORNIA CITIES TO
RECOMMEND AND SUPPORT LEGISLATION REQUIRING THE
PROVISION OF OPEN SPACE THROUGH THE INCLUSION OF
GREEN BELTS AS A DESIGN REQUIREMENT OF ALL SUB-
DIVISIONS, AND DEVELOPMENT OF NEW ZONING TOOLS TO
PRESERVE OPEN SPACES
The City Council of the City of Chula Vista does hereby
resolve as follows:
WHEREAS, it has become increasingly apparent that California
cities are growing at a rapid pace without due consideration for the
provision of meaningful open spaces to provide for a healthy and
aesthetically desirable urban environment, and
WHEREAS, it is essential that open space, as distinguished
from park and recreational facilities, should logically be required
to be set aside in all new subdivisions and to be an integral part
of the design of land development.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the
City of Chula Vista that the League of California Cities is hereby
urged to recommend and support such amendments to the State Subdivision
Map Act as may be necessary to require that in all subdivisions in
those cities where an open space/green belt master plan has been
adopted, said subdivisions be designed in a manner so as to establish
permanent open spaces, the maintenance of which would be financed by
assessments levied upon the residents of said subdivisions or by
such other financing as may be determined by the municipalities.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Council of the City
of Chula Vista urges the League of California Cities to support
amendments to the State Planning Act, authorizing the use of zoning
regulations to preserve open space areas.
