On August 9, 2012, the California Coastal Commission (Coastal Commission) subsequently approved these same amendments adopted by Council, as well as additional revisions (known as suggested modifications) to the City's Land Use Plan and Specific Plan. The proposed actions would approve amendments to the City's LCP Land Use Plan and Specific Plan to incorporate the newly suggested modifications adopted by the Coastal Commission. f~ SEPTEMBER 25, 2012, Item Page 2 of 4 ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW In accordance with the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act , (CEQA), the proposed LCP amendments were the subject of the Final Environmental Impact Report (EIR) prepared for the Bayfront Master Plan and Port Master Plan Amendment (dated April 2010) (UPD #83356-EIR-658; SCH No. 2005081077) (Final EIR) which was certified the Final EIR on May 18, 2010 and whereby, the requisite CEQA Findings of Fact pursuant to Section 15096 (h) of the CEQA Guidelines and a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) were adopted. RECOMMENDATION That the City Council: 1) Adopt the Resolution amending Resolution Number 2010-115 of the City of Chula Vista by adopting the California Coastal Commission's August 9, 2012 actions on the City of Chula Vista Local Coastal Plan Amendment 1-11 and accepting and incorporating modifications to the Land Use Plan, 2) Adopt the Ordinance of the City of Chula Vista adopting the California Coastal Commission's August 9, 2012 actions on the City of Chula Vista Local Coastal Plan Amendment 1-11 and accepting and incorporating modifications to the Specific Plan, approving the amended Specific Plan of the Chula Vista Local Coastal Program and amending Chula Vista Municipal Code Chapters 19.81 through 19.87. BOARDS/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION None DISCUSSION The Chula Vista Bayfront is located on the southeastern edge of San Diego Bay in the City of Chula Vista (Attachment A). In 2002, the San Diego Unified Port District (Port) and the City of Chula Vista (City) joined together to create a master plan for the approximately 556-acre bayfront area The culmination of this decade-long joint planning process resulted in the development of Chula Vista Bayfront Master Plan (CVBMP). The CVBMP contains a range of land uses on both City and Port lands including park, open space, buffers, cultural, recreational, hotel and conference space, mixed use office/commercial recreation, residential and retail. On May 18, 2010, the Board of Port Commissioners, the Chula Vista City Council, the Chula Vista Redevelopment Corporation and the Chula Vista Planning Commission held a joint hearing during which the respective amendments to the Port Master Plan and the City's LCP were adopted to reflect land use and circulation changes in the CVBMP. Since January 2011, the Port and City have worked closely with California Coastal Commission staff to process the joint application for amendments to the Port Master Plan and the City's LCP. As is typical with other LCP documents, the Coastal Commission reviewed the City's initial submittal and then requested the City to consider changes to ~/ ` ~ SEPTEMBER 25, 2012, Item ~~ Page 3 of 4 the document consistent with the California Coastal Act policies. These revisions are referred to as "suggested modifications" by the Coastal Commission (refer to Attachment B). After several months of successful collaboration with the Coastal Commission staff, the City agreed to a number of revisions (or suggested modifications) that are summarized below, and were a part of the Coastal Commission's approval actions on August 9, 2012. The accompanying specific wording proposals and other LCP edits are presented in Attachment B. Visual Resources and View Protection: Suggested modifications regarding visual resources largely focused on specific changes to the Pacifica development to protect public view corridors through the residential development area, as well as along the J Street corridor. These modifications included such changes as enhanced setbacks and modification to tower heights. Other suggested modifications included lowering the height of the commercial office-designated parcel in the Sweetwater District (from 125 to 44 feet), and identifying public view corridors to the Bay from D Street, E Street, F Street, L Street, Palomar Street, and H Street. Environmentally Sensitive Habitat and Water Quality Protection: In order to address environmentally sensitive areas within the plan, an additional graphic (Environmental Resources Map) was included in the plan as well as additional environmental and water quality policies. New environmental policies included defining permitted uses allowed in wetlands (i.e., restoration, nature study, mineral extraction etc.); defining requirements for buffers from sensitive habitat, requiring specific mitigation when impacts are permitted, and limiting the use of toxic chemical substances which have the potential to significantly degrade sensitive habitat areas. The limit on use of chemical substances is required under other City habitat planning documents and will not add additional restrictions to adjacent sensitive uses. New water quality policies included specific water quality standards to ensure that long-term protection and enhancement of water quality is provided through watershed planning and requirements that new development implement water quality protection policies. These water quality requirements are also consistent with other City storm water guidelines and policies. Public Access: To address traffic and circulation impacts, the City's initial submittal included a draft Public Access Plan. The Public Access Plan provides details about how public access will be provided to the, waterfront and throughout the CVBMP. Measures to facilitate public access include a wide array of promenades, bikeways, a shuttle service and parking reduction demand strategies. The Coastal Commission staff requested minor modifications to the public access plan to add updated graphics and to provide additional detail regarding the proposed shuttle service regarding an in-service timing requirement. Transit service shall be provided upon the issuance of certificate of occupancy for either the resort conference center hotel or the 500th residential unit. In addition, coastal staff also requested that the LCP policies be revised to provide consistency between the Public Access Plan and the LCP. Recreation and Protection of Priority Uses: The Coastal Act requires that there be a range of affordable accommodations provided within the Coastal Zone area. The ~/ .3 SEPTEMBER 25, 2012, Item e~ Page 4 of 4 City's LCP provides for one new 250-room hotel within the Pacifica development azea. It is unknown at this time what the room rates for the proposed hotel will be; however, suggested modifications require that where a new hotel or motel development would consist of entirely high cost overnight accommodations, the City should do a supply/demand analysis within the Chula Vista Master Plan and South Bay area, to determine whether in-lieu fees or comparable mitigation should be required as a condition of approval for a coastal development permit. This requirement has been included in the suggested modifications. The requested amendments to the City's LCP Land Use Plan and Specific Plan would incorporate the exact suggested modifications provided by Coastal Commission staff included in Attachment B and summarized above into the City's LCP. Adoption of these amendments would update the City's LCP to be consistent with the action taken by the Coastal Commission on August 9, 2012. DECISION MAKER CONFLICT Staff has reviewed the property holdings of the City Council and has found no property holdings within 500 feet of the boundaries of the property, which is subject to this action. CURRENT YEAR FISCAL IMPACT There will be no fiscal impact to the General Fund during the current fiscal year. ONGOING FISCAL IMPACT As part of the overall CVBMP development and implementation, the City and Port anticipate the formation of a Joint Powers Authority (JPA). Revenues from CVBMP development projects, including hotel occupancy taxes paid to the City, Ground Lease payments paid to the Port and development impact fees collected by the City, will be combined within the City /Port JPA to fund CVBMP infrastructure, the convention center and ongoing operations and maintenance costs including costs for the mitigation and monitoring of impacts. To the extent permitted by law, the above new revenue sources will be used by the JPA to fund costs associated with this action and are expected to be sufficient to fully fund these costs, therefore no additional impact to the General Fund is expected. Costs related to the Pacifica project and any associated approval processing and/or mitigation monitoring efforts would be funded directly by a developer deposit account.

BROWN, JR., Governor CALIFORNIA COASTAL COMMISSION SAN DIEGO AREA 7575 METROPOLITAN DRIVE, SUITE 103 SAN DIEGO, CA 92108-4429 (619) 767-2370 August 24, 2012 The Honorable Cheryl Cox Mayor of Chula Vista 276 Fourth Avenue Chula Vista, CA 91910 Re: Certification of City of Chula Vista LCPA #1-11 (Chula Vista Bayfront Master Plan) Dear Mayor Cox: On August 9, 2012, the California Coastal Commission approved the above referenced Local Coastal Program Amendment (LCPA) with suggested modifications. The approved amendment replaces the City's Bayfront Land Use Plan and Specific Plan (Implementation Plan) with new plans allowing for the redesignation of existing land uses to allow for the implementation of the Chula Vista Bayfront Master Plan, the transfer of various parcels of land between the City and the Port District, and adds policy language addressing environmentally sensitive habitat, visitor-serving uses, overnight accormmodations, visual quality, and parking and circulation. In its action, the Commission adopted the LUP with suggested modifications addressing specific requirements for the Bayfront Master Plan, and all of the above-noted policy groups. The modifications cover a broad range of topics, and include such things as additional definitions, clarifications in language to ensure protection for visitor-serving commercial uses, overnight accommodations, environmentally sensitive habitat, visual resources, and water quality. A copy of all of the suggested modifications as adopted by the Commission is attached. Before the LCPA can become effectively certified, the Executive Director must determine that implementation of the LCPA will be consistent with the Commission's certification order. This is necessary because the LCPA was certified with suggested modifications. In order for the Executive Director to make this determination, the local government must formally acknowledge receipt of the Commission's resolution of certification; including all of the suggested modifications, and take any formal action which is required to satisfy them, such as incorporating the modifications. This must also include production of new LUP and IP text, maps, and/or other graphics demonstrating that the amendment, as approved by the Commission and accepted by the City, will become the City's Land Use Plan and Implementation Plan immediately upon concurrence by the Commission of the Executive Director's determination. As soon as the necessary documentation is received in this office and accepted, the Executive Director will report his/her determination to the Commission at its next regularly scheduled public hearing. If not extended by Commission action, the -~ . r,: ~~rlA August 24, 2012 Page 2 Commission's certification with suggested modifications expires six months from the date of Commission action. Because the LCPA involves revisions to the City's coastal permit jurisdiction and updated wetland determinations, revisions to the City's post-certification boundary map will be required, consistent with the approved LCPA. This action should occur once the suggested modifications have been adopted by the City. If you have any questions about the Commission's action or this final certification procedure, please contact our office. Thank you and the other staff members who worked on this planning effort. This was a challenging task, but the coordination and interaction with City staff was always positive and constructive. We remain available to assist you and your staff in any way possible to continue the successful implementation of the local coastal program. Sincerely, ~«'~J~ .

On Page I-8, the following additions shall be made to the top of the page, before heading 2. Area Location and Description: California Coastal Commission. The LCP must be sufficiently detailed to indicate the kind, location, and intensity of land uses and the applicable resource protection policies for development within the local coastal zone. The Land Use Plan component of the LCP must provide land use and development policies, which will ensure that development within the local coastal area will be consistent with the provisions of the Coastal Act. Both the "Obiectives" and the "Policies" of the LUP are the standard of review far coastal development Hermits." In addition, the LCP must contain implementing ordinances to carry out the policy provisions of the Land Use Plan. These are provided in the Chula V ista Bayfront Specific Plan, which serves as the implementation plan for the Chula Vista LCP. Second, this LCP must be consistent with, and implement, the City of Chula Vista General Plan, which is the primary local land use and development policy document. The Bayfront Specific Plan is a component of the City's General Plan and represents a step toward systematic implementation of the General Plan in the Bayfront. If there is a conflict between a provision of this LCP arid a provision of the General such other plan resolution or ordinance the LCP shall control and take precedence and the development shall not be approved unless it complies with the LCP provision. 5. On Page I-12, the fourth paragraph shall be revised as follows: //-~ Chula Vista LCP Suggested Modifcations August 24, 2012 Page 3 On Page I-13, the second paragraph under the heading Subarea 3 Otay District, shall be revised as follows: This subarea also consists of the small southern inland parcel on Faivre Street annexed to the City from the County of San Diego in 1985. This parcel is located adiacent to wetlands associated with the Otay River The undeveloped portion of the property characterized by native habitat is zoned and desienated as Open Space. On Page II-3, the first paragraph under b. Existing Conditions, shall be corrected as follows: There is currently limited physical, public access to Chula Vista's shoreline. The only direct public access to the bay is outside the LCP Planning Area on Port property. This includes a boat launch, marina, and park that are located off the westerly extension of "J" Street. Also on Port property is a park and public beach located west of the Goodrich facility Public access is also provided via a shuttle bus that serves the Chula Vista Nature Center, located on Gunpowder Point, and within the boundaries of the National Wildlife Refuge. 8. On Page II-6, the first proposed (not struck-out) paragraph on the page under Plan Provisions, shall be revised as follows: Wildlife populations (rimar~ily birds) using the National Wildlife Refuge will be protected from physical and visual intrusion by (1).implementingthg arrangement of uses resulting from the land exchange depicted in the Land Use Plan including the placement of more intensive land uses farther from environmentally sensitive areas such as the National Wildlife Refuge and the incorporation of buffer zones and other adjacency measures around sensitive habitat and (2) through siting and design of buildings according to the design and environmental protection requirements of the LCP. 9.

Buffers should take into account and adapt for rises in sea level by incorooratine wetland mieration areas or other sea level rise adaptation strategies as a~pronriate The CDFG and USPWS must be consulted in such buffer determinations and, in some cases, the required buffer, especially for salt marsh wetlands, could be greater than 100 feet. Uses and development within buffer areas shall be limited to minor passive recreational uses. with fencine desiltation or erosion control facilities or other improvements deemed necessary to protect the habitat to be located in the upper (unlandl half of the buffer area• however water quality features required to support new development shall not be constructed in wetland buffers. All wetlands and buffers identified and resultine from development and use approval shall be permanently conserved or protected throueh the recordation of an open space easement or other suitable device that perpetually prohibits development in wetlands and wetland buffer areas Such ~~~~~ Chula Vista LCP Suggested Modifications August 24, 2012 Page 62 devices shall include attached exhibits that consist of a leeal description of the subiect parcel upon which development has been approved and a eranhic depiction of the easement or otherwise restricted. area. .All development activities, such as nradine buildines and other improvements in adiacent to or drainine directly to a wetland must be located and built so thev do not contribute to increased sediment loadine of the wetland disturbance_of its habitat values or impairment of its functional capacity. In some unusual cases, smaller buffers may be aropropriate, when conditions of the site as demonstrated in a site specific bioloeical survey, the nature of the proposed development etc show that a smaller buffer would provide adeuuate protection. In such cases the CDFG must be consulted and aeree in writine. that a reduced buffer is anroropriate and the Citv or Commission on aropeal must find that the development could not be feasibly constructed without a reduced buffer. However., in no case shall the buffer be less than 50 feet. ,~ _ 1...7.: r.,• :.. al.e „ .. 1.., iF..F rho h:.

L NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Chula Vista does hereby find and determine as follows: A. ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION In accordance with the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the proposed LCP amendments were the subject of the Final Environmental Impact Report (EIR) prepared for the Bat~front Masser Plan and Port Master Plan Amendment (dated April 2010) (UPD #83356-EIR-65$' SCH No. 200.1081077) (Final EIR) which was certified on May 18, 2010 and whereby, the requisite CEQA Findings of Fact pursuant to Section 15096(h) of the CEQA Guidelines and a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) were adopted. B. CONSISTENCY WITH GENERAL PLAN AND CALIFORNIA COASTAL ACT The City Council finds that the amendment to the Local Coastal Program Land Use Plan, including the California Coastal Commission suggested modifications thereto, are consistent with the City of Chula Vista General Plan and the California Coastal Act Policies. The proposed amendments and suggested modifications are based on sound planning principles and practices that will provide for the protection and conservation of sensitive natural resources. The amendment allows the transfer of development from the Sweetwater District to the Harbor District, which is a previously developed and less sensitive area of the Bayfront, leading to the development of a project that will minimize potential negative impacts. The amendment will also contribute to provide and conserve bay views and provide more direct access to the Bayfront creating better connection to the rest of the city and the region. This will open up the Bayfront for the enjoyment of residents and visitors. The proposed amendment will be conducive to the development of the Bayfront and the creation of a world-class destination for residents and visitors. C. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT AND ACCEPTANCE OF RESOLUTION The City Council does hereby acknowledge receipt of the California Coastal Commission resolution of certification, as referenced in the California Coastal Commission's Statt' Report of August 9, 2012, including all of the suggested modifications to the Local Coastal Program Amendment 1-11 Land Use Plan, and accept the same. ~~ ~~8 Resolution No. Page 3 11.

Properties under the jurisdiction of the Port uses. 1. Purpose of Plan The purpose of the Chula Vista LCP is to provide a detailed plan for the orderly growth, development, redevelopment, and conservation of the City jurisdictional parcels located within the Chula Vista Bayfront coastal area. The LCP must be consistent with both local and state land use policies. First, every coastal city and county is required to prepare an LCP, pursuant to the California Coastal Act, to be approved by the Chula Vista Bayfront LCP Amendment I-2 „N"' "' Land Use Plan //~`~~~ Site Location i --~~.. say ~: c< Pacific ~~~~ .

The LCP must be sufficiently detailed to indicate the kind, location, and intensity of land uses and the applicable resource protection policies for development within the local coastal zone. The Land Use Plan component of the LCP must provide land use and development policies, which will ensure that development within the local coastal area will be consistent with the provisions of the Coastal Act. In addition, the LCP must contain implementing ordinances to carry out the policy provisions of the Land Use Plan. These are provided in the Chula Vista Bayfront Specific Plan, which serves as the implementation plan for the Chula Vista LCP. Second, this LCP must be consistent with, and implement, the City of Chula Vista General Plan, which is the primary local land use and development policy document. The Bayfront Specific Plan is a component of the City's General Plan and represents a step toward systematic implementation of the General Plan in the Bayfront. 2. Area Location and Description The City of Chula Vista was incorporated in 1911 and became a charter city in 1949. The City currently has a population of approximately -149;899 209,133 and covers an area of about 34 52 square mites. Geographically, the City is located adjacent to the east side of San Diego Say, 8 miles south of San Diego's downtown and 7 miles north of the International Border (see Exhibit 1). The Chula Vista Goastal Zone currently includes a large amount of industrial development and the National Wildlife Refuge (Sweetwater Marsh and F&G Street Marsh). It also contains one of the last remaining large blocks of undeveloped land on San Diego Bay. Regionally, the area is served by I-5, the major freeway connection between San Diego and Mexico. State Route 54 (SR-54) and its interchange with I-5 in the Bayfront enhance the site's locational advantage. The Bayfront area is located 10.8 miles south of the San Diego International Airport. 3. Caas#a~~r-e-- Chula Vista Bayfront and Subareas The boundary of the Chula Vista Bayfront area extends from the coast to just immediately east of I-5, except in the northerly portion of the City where it turns east (inland) along the prolongation of C Street to a point approximately midway between Broadway and Fifth Avenue and then north of the City boundary. The Coastal Zone and Bayfront boundaries are shown in Exhibit 2,-f3age-1-4. 1'tie'-Gtt~ EI~rT~oo-v~cn~.

The Harbor District is the central area and includes the ma'orit of Port lands. The Ota District includes the southern portion of the Chula Vista Bayfront area and is defined on the southern boundary by Palomar Street, with the addition of the inland coastal zone parcel at Faivre Street. The districts are shown in Exhibit 6. The three districts are further defined into three subareas within the LCP Planning Area for land use planninclpurposes The three subareas generally coincide with the boundaries of the three districts and are described in more detail below. Only properties within the districts that are under the City's Chula Vista Bayfront LCP Amendment I-10 April 2012 Land Use Plan // ~~ Land Use Plan ~~ The Chula Vista Coastal Zone totals approximately 1,345 acres, of which 722 acres are within the LCP Planning Area (local coastal zone), 536 acres are within the Port's jurisdiction (Port Master Plan), and 87 acres are outside of the Bayfront area (West Fairfield Planning Area).' Five major ownerships dominate the Planning Area: (1) Goodrich, Inc. (Goodrich), which purchased the land previously owned by Rohr, Inc., in the Harbor District with 79 acres; (2) the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service (USFWS), which owns 316 acres in two parcels (Sweetwater Marsh and the "F&G" Street Marsh), which comprise the National Wildlife Refuge; (3) a private entity, which controlled approximately 97 acres in the Sweetwater District that was exchanged far approximately 30 acres of Port lands in the Harbor District; (4) Chula Vista Redevelopment Agency. which owns approximately 16 acres, also in the Sweetwater District of the Bayfront: and SDG&E, which purchased approximately 12 acres of land from the Port District. Although the Port area is within the City limits, it is included in the Port's Master Plan, rather than the City's LCP. The Bayfront is characterized by a land use mix that balances coastal development and protected coastal open space. Development associated with the land exchange will enhance this goal by exchange also allows for large protected open spaces and buffer zones adjacent to sensitive Street. The South Bay Power Plant and smaller industrial users are located south of "J" Street to Palomar Street. In addition to these areas located west of I-5, one parcel east of the freeway is within the Bayfront and LCP Planning Area and is known as the Faivre Street Inland Area. This inland parcel is located south of the western end of Faivre Street and is currently used as a lumber yard distribution facility and open space. on the issues specific to each area. These subareas, which correlate to the Port's districts, are indicated in Exhibit 6, and are described below: Subarea 1 Sweetwater District This subarea is located generally north of "F" Street.

Subarea 2 Harbor District subarea are developed with industrial or related uses. This area contains four parcels transferred to a private entity as a part of the land exchange that were previously under Port iurisdiction but are now under City iurisdiction. The exchanged parcels are also part of the CVBMP area. Subarea 3 This subarea. known as the Otav District is located south of Otay District "J" Street and includes parcels located along Bay Boulevard which are primarily developed with light industrial and related commercial uses under City iurisdiction. This subarea also consists of the small southern inland parcel on Faivre Street annexed to the City from the County of San Diego in 1985. This parcel is located adjacent to wetlands associated with the The Chula Vista Coastal Zone contains parcels under either Port or Citv iurisdiction Only those parcels within the Bavfront area under City iurisdiction are included in the City's LCP Plannin Area and are subject to the provisions of this Land Use Plan. 4.

B. LOCAL COASTAL PROGRAM OVERVIEW 1. Coastal Act Provisions As provided in section 30500(a) of the Public Resources Code, "Each local government lying, in whole or in part, within the coastal zone shall prepare a local coastal program for that portion of the coastal zone within its jurisdiction." The Local Coastal Program is defined as "A local government's land use plans, zoning ordinances, zoning district maps, and implementing actions which, when together, meet the requirements of, and implement the provisions and policies of, the Coastal Act at the local level. The Coastal Act divides the LCP process into three documented phases: (1) Coastal Act Provisions/Issue Identification; (2) Land Use Plan; and (3) Implementing Ordinances. Issue Identification was completed in connection with the original LCP approval in 1986 and has not been included in this resubmittal. This revised LCP includes (1) the Land Use Plan and (2) the Implementing Ordinances (the Bayfront Specific Plan}. ~~. ~~.Eh~ + r +ho 1 .~, r.rl I Ico Dlnn nrn~°c~tS-t7.-tfiS~Si wish- ar-e- r 1 + +n +h n a ~.,~ +. - ~~, ar-~t+fies-e~i-&ti --{del icy -eategar-y; a7; rl ~ .+lir, n +hn I r'I7 nr,_~s~nf91~mn~~ rinl'~' ~~r cnnnifir•nll~i i rlnn+ifiorl +n ~ir!_i~_ci1.[~Ciil~~nn +h~~_~.~ro tiiiur ~.~.~JtP. ~~iy:. }~'~ Chula Vista Bayfront LCP Amendment I-14 Hprll cu Land Use Plan ~/,~/3 , / 2.

Development Criteria 6. Environmental Management Pro ram 7. Infrastructure Financing and Funding Mechanisms 3. History of Chula Vista Coastal Program This LCP lie-~~c~+tta4 Amendment is the latest in a series of studies and plans that have been prepared for the Chula Vista Bayfront. In 1972, the City initiated a program to evaluate development options and prepare a master plan for the area. In 1972, Proposition 20, the Coastal Initiative, was passed by the voters of California. Proposition 20 mandated the preparation of the California Coastal Plan, which was issued in 1975. The California Coastal Plan and subsequent legislation established stringent review requirements for projects in the Coastal Zone. To respond to blighting conditions in some areas of the Bayfront, in 1974 the City established the Bayfront Redevelopment Project Area, which includes a majority of property within the Bayfront area. Many of the blighted conditions have been removed or redeveloped through the successful implementation of the Redevelopment Plan. The City began the Coastal Commission review process in 1976. A lengthy process that included additional environmental review and analysis, several lawsuits, and reconfiguration of portions of the plan extended to March 1984, at which time the Chula Vista Bayfront Land Use Plan was approved by the Coastal Commission. Subsequently the implementing ordinances (specific plan) were also approved in June 1985. Certification was challenged by lawsuits regarding the adequacy of endangered species habitat protection within the Bayfront and mitigation of on-site and off-site impacts. The settlement agreement concluding the lawsuit resulted in the creation of the Sweetwater Marsh National Wildlife Refuge, which includes property designated for the principal visitor-serving use in the Bayfront. The settlement agreement required that Gunpowder Point (designated resort hotel site), the "D" Street Fill (designated for marina, commercial, and residential development), and the entire Paradise Creek and Sweetwater Marsh complex be deeded to the U:~-F~-r~-Wii~l+fe~Ser~iFe USFWS. Eliminating these uses from the Bayfront Plan resulted in an imbalance in the land use allocation for the remaining developable upland property. Because of this, the City re-initiated a planning program to formulate a new plan for the Bayfront in 1988. This effort was curtailed when the major undeveloped portion of the property was sold and the new landowner expressed an interest in working with the City to prepare a new plan emphasizing amixed-use, visitor-serving development.

Refuge, under USFWS ownership, is part of the LCP Planning Area Close cooperation between the City, the Port, and Federal agencies is necessary to ensure: • Coordination of road, water, sewer, and storm drainage improvements; • Effective management of coastal environmental resources; • Harmonious land use and development, which permits all portions of the Bayfront lands to benefit from the economic, visual, and recreational values of the waterfront site; and • Provision of public access to coastal resources. State law and good planning practice require that the Bayfront Land Use Plan address the relationship between the lands within the LCP boundaries and the adjoining Port lands. This is done by indicating where the continuity of public facilities (roads, water lines, sewers, storm drainage provisions, and pedestrian and bicyclist routes) is to be maintained, where protection of economic and aesthetic values provided by water-oriented views are to be protected, and where safeguards are necessary to prevent conflicts in land use and development. Specific aspects requiring coordinated action include: • Rerouting and design of Marina Parkway it?-E,s_>-r~?cLLll~~~~r;-1~;~;t ~=.~~~; • Maintenance of a protected habitat for the least tern and other sensitive species within the National Wildlife Refuge; • Integration of pedestrian watertront access; • Protection of existing water-oriented views from inland areas; and • A balanced mix of developed land uses within the coasta! area of the City.

LOCAL PLANNING PROGRAMS Adopted local plans and State law create the planning context for the Chula Vista Bayfront LCP. The LCP must be consistent with both the City's General Plan and the provisions of the California Coastal Act. State law (Code Section 65300) requires each city to adopt a comprehensive, long-term general plan for the physical development of the city. The State requires general plans based on the belief that the future growth of the State is determined largely through local actions. By requiring general plans, the State can be ensured of a consistent framework for decisions while still allowing local control. In a similar manner, an approved LCP provides assurance that the specific interest of the State, as expressed in the Coastal Act, will be met within the Coastal Zone while still allowing local decision- making. 1. General Plan Bayfront Vision Statement The 2010 Chula Vista General Plan includes a description of "The Vision" for the development of the City. The City considers the Bayfront an important development area due to its location and potential to create a unique image for Chula Vista. The following statement from the General Plan describes the vision for the Bayfront: ~~r .prm~_~~h~cic~ nn nrrh lin .- .~..~f:vn ~n}i~ii}io op }nrrrior» ~. n.-! .. ...L;~..-.

A major component of the Bayfront Master Plan is the protection of natural areas and sensitive biolo ical resources. The Ba front Master Plan su orts the im lementation of a variety of uses including office residential retail entertainment recreation other visitor-serving uses and reconfiguration of the harbor. 2. Goals for Development The preceding vision statement can be expressed as a series of goals for Bayfront development as listed below: • Create a water oriented focal point for the entire city Of Chula Vista which includes uses which are attractive to visitors and residents alike. • Provide for the extension of the downtown urban core into the Bayfront to emphasize a strong east-west connection. • Establish roadwa s in the Ba ront Plannin Area that res and to the s ecial o eratin characteristics of roadwa s within a more urbanized environment accommodate slower Chula Vista Bayfront LCP Amendment II-1 April 2012 Land Use Plan ~~ ~~~ speeds in pedestrian-oriented areas, and facilitate multi-modal design elements and amenities. • Provide continuous open space network which links the Bayfront to the planned "Chula Vista Greenbelt" incorporating the Sweetwater River Valley to the north and the Otay River Valley to the south. • Increase mobility fior residents and visitors in the Bayfront Planning Area. • Promote integrated land uses in the Bayfront and create an identifiable image for the Bayfront. • Create park and recreational opportunities in the Bayfront Planning Area that protect the natural beauty of the Bay and improve access and usage by area residents and visitors. • Provide good regionalaccess to encourage visitors to the Bayfront. Provide for natural open space conservation in the Bayfront Planning Area. • Provide for the Tong-term protection of important natural resources, including those withing the National Wildlife Refuge. • Encoura e req development and new development activities within the Sweetwater Subarea that will minimize impacts to environmentally sensitive lands adjacent to the Sweetwater Marsh National Wildlife Refu e. Promote opportunities for public coastal success, open space, park and recreational uses adjacent to the natural resources of the Bayfront. Provide for the redevelopment and new development of the Harbor Subarea that will reinforce its identity as the City's Bayfront focal point. ~ ~~.~ ' na ~nrli m#ri.~l h„oinocc in (`Milo 1/ic I~,~ limi# +h(+ ,.~,I r u ii~va.,., ...., .., ..,..,~....,,, .., ... ~.. ~-.. ....hG;-TStti-m-r-nr-crrc Ey~ten~t_~f-t~u_~~~~~p,nE+~'+n~~stf~nl ~+nrl nvmmorniol ~~coc #n occ~~_~~.~.vmm~n# of i~nirv~~o • The Chula Vista Bayfront contains scenic resources of local and regional importance.

Coastal Act Policies Sections 30210-30212 of the Coastal Act require that public and recreational opportunities be provided for all the people, that development not interfere with the public's right of access, and that new development provide public access to the shoreline. b. Existing Conditions There is currently limited physical, public access to Chula Vista's shoreline. The only direct public access to the bay is outside the LCP Planning Area on Port property. This includes a boat launch, marina, and park that are located off the westerly extension of "J" Street. Also on Port property is a park and public beach located immediately west of the Goodrich facility Public access is also provided via a shuttle bus that serves the Chula Vista Nature Center, located on Gunpowder Point, and within the boundaries of the National Wildlife Refuge. The lack of adequate public access is due partly to the types of land uses that currently exist along the shoreline, ~-s~= Goodrich's major industrial/manufacturing facility, boats yards, SDG&E ;_~,-:~{~~~;~:y utility infrastructure, power plant operations, the National Wildlife Refuge, and undeveloped property all have resulted in very limited direct public access opportunities.

Coastal Act Policies Sections 30212.5 and 30213 [part, 30220-30223 and 30250(c)] of the Coastal Act requires the provision of public and low-cost recreation and visitor-serving facilities, and encourages the provision of commercial recreational and visitor-serving facilities by requiring that suitable land be reserved for such uses and that uses be given priority over other uses. b. Existinc~Conditions Limited visitor-serving facilities are located adjacent to I-5 along Bay Boulevard, including a small motel and four restraints. The Port District Marina and boat launch facilities contain restaurants, boat slips, and a marina. Marina View Park and the Port District's fishing pier are adjacent to the bay and provide low cost public recreational facilities. A yacht club facility and excursion pier have been constructed to provide additional recreational opportunities. Within the LCP Planning Area, limited visitor-serving facilities are located adjacent to I-5 along Bay Boulevard, including a small motel and two restaurants.

Water and Marine Resources a. Coastal Act Policies Sections 30230, 30231, and 30236 of the Coastal Act require the preservation and, where feasible, the enhancement and restoration of water and marine resources including coastal water, streams, wetlands, estuaries, and lakes. Special protection shall be given to areas and species of special biological or economic significance. b. Existing Conditions The Bayfront contains marshes, mudflats, and uplands and includes one of the last remaining major wetlands in San Diego Bay. These wetland areas provide habitat and nesting sites for a wide range of avian species, which are of special concern due to diminishing habitat throughout their range. ~~;~~--;=:Many of the important wetlands are located within the °~^~°~ ~-~~=-,nnnars;;-National Wildlife Refuge (Subarea 1).-~nr}~Feh-~j~s tie °~-zo"~ -~~iliti~ - t-.~~ ;.arm-a, Establishment of this refuge has ~~;-~~~ ensured, +,. -, ~n~+.,~n ,,,,+~n+ the preservation of the important wetland and biologically valuable upland resources.

Establishment of the National Wildlife Refuge ensures protection of the sensitive species/ habitat areas, while the policies of the LCP require mitigation of impacts to wildlife areas from development on adjacent uplands parcels. 4. Diking, Dredging, Filling, and Shoreline Structures a. Coastal Act Policies Sections 30233 and 30235 of the Coastal Act establish the limited conditions under which diking, dredging, filling of wetlands, restoration of wetlands, and construction of shoreline structures may occur. Section 30411 (b) provides additional provisions for the filling of wetlands, provided it is accompanied by substantial restoration of degraded wetland. b. Existing Conditions In the past, there has been considerable alteration of the Bayfront. Filling to some degree has occurred along much of the shoreline. By far the most significant, in terms of total fill and amount of shoreline affected, is the "D" Street Fill. A railroad has also been constructed across the Sweetwater Marsh using fill material. The majority of lands potentially impacted by existing diking, dredging, or filling of wetlands are within the Port Master Plan area.

Commercial Fishing and Recreational Boating a. Coastal Act Policies Sections 30224, 30234, and 30255 of the Coastal Act encourage increased recreational boating, require the preservation of boating facilities, and give precedence to coastal-dependent development, except in wetlands. b. Existing Conditions All properties associated with commercial fishing and recreational boating are within Port jurisdiction and outside the LCP Planning Area. Boat launch and marina facilities are located on the Port property within the Bayfront. Additional recreations! boating berths were constructed on the Port property, along with a yacht club facility and excursion pier to expand the initial marina facilities. c. Plan Provisions Due to the sensitive environmental resources associated with the Bayfront shoreline, access for fishing or boating is not currently permitted or proposed in the LCP Planning Area. L+t;~it~:-~-I~+c .~.,~I .,~~,~~{.. ~~=~;;r .~,~-~~ :~=-',(~`,1~;~~~-i„ i~la~bavtrr~~-,a+e~-tray-;~z~,- In addition, boating and fishing are limited to areas within the Port's jurisdiction and will be governed by the provisions of the Port Master Plan Because of the environmental sensitivity of the {~~aar}ir~ Bayfront area, increased major recreational boating facilities within the LCP Plannina Area are precluded. This general policy is consisfent with the provisions of the Coastai Act. 6. Environmentally Sensitive Habitat Areas a. Coastal Act Policies Section 30240 of the Coastal Act provides for the protection of environmentally sensitive habitat areas by restricting uses within, or adjacent, to such areas. b_ Existing Conditions In addition to the marsh and mudflat areas discussed under the Water and Marine Resources category, some upland areas have been identified as environmentally sensitive habitat areas. A minimum of 13 vegetation communities and land cover types have been identified within the Bayfront, including Diegan coastal sage scrub (disturbed), non-native grassland, eucalyptus woodland, ornamental vegetation, disturbed habitat, ruderal, southern coastal salt marsh, mule fat scrub, coastal brackish marsh, seasonal pond, disturbed riparian, bay, and urban/developed. The marsh environment within the Bayfront is critical feeding and nesting habitat for three Federal and/or State listed endangered species: California least tern, light-footed clapper rail, and ..,,u,a viaia vaynunt Ll.r HfTlenQnlerlL II-7 April 2012 Land Use Plan ~~~~~ Belding's savannah sparrow.

In addition, there are several other special status species that have the potential to occur within the Bayfront. Virtually all of the environmentally sensitive habitat areas are located in the National Wildlife Refuge or in the Port Master Plan area. Several potential wetland areas have been identified within the LCP Planning Area: (1) a drainage ditch, degraded due to contamination, located within the Harbor District (Parcel Area 2-g); (2) in the open space on the Faivre Street parcel (3-k); (3) the "F&G" Street Marsh (south of "F" Street); and (4) USFWS property and Parcel Area 1-g within the Sweetwater District. c. Plan Provisions In response to the need to protect these environmentally sensitive areas from the potential impact ofi adjacent development, the Land Use Plan provides for ~x~~;a-;i4re extending setbacks and buffering land uses adjacent to the National Wildlife Refuge and other sensitive habitat areas. Public access to the National Wildlife Refuge is limited to a shuttle bus that serves the Chula Vista Nature Center. Humans and domestic pets are prohibited direct access to the National Wildlife Refuge through the use of fences and perimeter signage. tn-add+t+or~-AA+dt~ayfrent-developments wil ~ egs and-sats:~ Special setbacks are required adjacent to the "F&G" Street Marsh. The design and use of both the "F&G" Street Marsh setback and the park/open space area adjacent to the National Wildlife Refuge are consistent with Army Corps Permit No. 88-287-RH. As summarized above, the LCP policies protect environmentally sensitive habitat areas by restricting uses within, or adjacent, to such areas. 7. Agriculture a. Coastal Act Policies Sections 30241 and 30242 of the Coastal Act provide for the preservation of prime agricultural land in order to ensure the protection of an area's agricultural economy. The policies establish criteria for the conversion of lands to non-agricultural uses. The criteria minimize conflicts between agricultural and urban land uses. b. Existing Conditions A major portion of the Bayfront was once used for agriculture production. However, agricultural operations were discontinued years ago and none of the area is considered prime agricultural land. Chula Vista Bayfront LCP Amendment II-8 April 201: Land Use Plan /! ~~~ no-touch zone characterized b native ve etation. c. Plan Provisions The Land Use Plan does not provide for the preservation of the agricultural land within the Bayfront because it is not considered high-quality agricultural land. In addition, agricultural activities would not be compatible with the type and scale of development proposed, nor with the enhancement of wetland resources and habitat areas. The absence of prime agricultural lands precludes any conflict between the designation of lands for development and the agricultural preservation provisions of the Coastal Act. 8. Hazard Areas a. Coastal Act Policies Section 30253(1)(2) of the Coastal Act requires new development to minimize risks in areas of high geologic, flood, and fire hazard and to prevent structural damage to bluffs and cliffs. b. Existing Conditions There are three potential sources of hazards within the Bayfront. They are land settlement hazards, seismic hazards, and flood hazards. The settlement hazards are attributable to the presence of relatively shallow surficial deposits of soft compressible bay mud throughout the historic marsh lands and tidal flats, as well as in deeper water areas. Two major faults have been mapped near the Chula Vista waterfront area: the north-northwest-trending Rose Canyon /San Diego Bay/ Tijuana fault, and the east-west Otay fault. Parts of the Bayfront area were within the standard project flood area of the Army Corps Sweetwater River Flood Control Project. However, at the completion of the flood control project, these flood hazards were eliminated_ c. Plan Provisions To address flooding, settlement, and seismic hazards, the Bayfront Land Use Plan contains provisions to require engineering investigations to minimize potential hazards to development. Buildings will be designed and constructed to meet earthquake safety requirements as required by the Uniform Building Code. Soil conditions will be monitored and evaluated for geologic conditions related to possible liquefactions. The LCP Utilities and Area Wide Grading (Section I II,D) policies will minimize risks from the known geologic and flood hazards associated with the LCP Planning Area. 9. Forestry and Soil Resources This category of Coastal Act policies is not applicable to the Bayfront area. 1~. Locating and Planning New Development a. Coastal Act Policies Sections 30244, 30250 (a), and 30253 (3)(4) of the Coastal Act provide criteria far the location of new development. Generally, new development should be concentrated in areas of existing Chula Vista Bayfront LCP Amendment II-9 April 2012 Land Use Plan l~ ~f ~~~`"~ Chula Vista Bayfront 11. Coastal Visual Resources and Special Communities a. Coastal Act Polices Sections 30251 and 30253 (5) of the Coastal Act require the protection of scenic and visual qualities of coastal areas, and the preservation of unique visitor destination communities. b. Existing Conditions The potential visual and scenic qualities of the Bayfront are currently not being fully realized. The views of the area from adjacent I-5 are impaired by the lower elevation of I-5, and in some locations are marred by visual blight, including abandoned buildings, open storage, vegetation overgrowth, non-landscaped transmission line corridors, and aboveground transmission lines. c. Plan Provisions The Land Use Plan provides for the removal of existing blight from the Bayfront LCP Planning Area ~nrl fr~r 'nrro., ' hl•G-c~£EQS~ t8 allow tiles-~m~irc-te-c~c~e~~Er^rC-~ 4ho ~ ~~nic frr~ t~~ ~r~oteY cf +E,o r~Ny~~n+ ,,,,. +A,., a-, ~+_ The removal of this blight will allow the public to experience views from the Bayfront outward toward the coast. The removal of this blight will also enhance the views of the coastline from the east. In addition, the Land Use Plan requires that view corridors from the freeway and roadways be preserved, framed, or uncluttered, pursuant to the provisions outlined in Section 111 C of this ion to ensure an attractive view of, and to establish a visual relationship with, the marshes and bay-related activities. A Fire Station is planned to be developed within the Bayfront to provide added public services to the Bayfront area. Entrances to the Bayfront have been designed to form visual gateways to the water's edge to support the sense of the City's proximity to the bay. Landscaping and architectural edges are used to form sequences of views throughout the Bayfront. IVew buildings ~~~~~: will be sited to create view corridors. Buildings are to be stepped back from the bay to preserve views as set forth in the Land Use Plan. The policies of this LCP will enhance the existing scenic and visual qualities of the local coastal zone and accommodate development of a unique coastal community. 12. Public Works a. Coastal Act Policies Section 30254 of the Coastal Act limits the construction or expansion of public works facilities to the capacity required to provide service to only those users permitted by the Coastal Act. b. Existing Conditions Adequate water, sewage, and other utility services are currently present to serve existing uses; k~i ~+ ~niill nnr~i-1 +Q__t1Y~n~_~.,ro__tti~~• lnnmon+ c~i+c~c -- however thev will need to be extended to serves ecific develo ment sites. c.

Chula Vista Bayfront LCP Amendment Land Use Plan I I-12 ~s~~Q April 2012 AREAWIDE DEVELOPMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES This chapter is organized into five separate sections: Land Use; Circulation; Public Access, and Parking; Physical Form and Appearance, Utilities and Areawide Grading, and Environmental Management. Each of these sections includes a brief description of existing conditions and then provides basic objectives for development in the Chula Vista Bayfront area- The objective for each section is italicized for nick identification. Associated specific policy provisions are defined to guide development and resource enhancement in the LCP Planning Area for each topical area of concern.

Land Use Regulation Objectives/Polices Objective LU.1 New Bayfront developmenf should encourage amixed-use development combining visitor serving commercial/recreational uses, public parks, and residential. The mixed use character of the Bayfront will: 7) minimize the traffic impact of development on the surrounding roadway system by splitting fhe peak hour traffic between trip origins and destinations; and 2) signifrcantly expand public access and use of the Bayfront.

Chula Vista Bayfront LCP Amendment III-9 April 2012 Land Use Plan ~~~ Objective LU.4 Preserve and enhance the existing saltwater marshes, ponds, and mudflafs fo protect the many natural resouce values of the habitat and contribute to the visual quality of the Bayfront. Policy LU.4.A Most sensitive habitat areas have been placed within the Sweetwater Marsh National Wildlife Refuge, though other sensitive areas exist in the LCP area adjacent to the Sweetwater and Otay River. The land use area designations and locations indicated on the Land Use Plan Map have been selected to allow for development while buffering sensitive environmental areas. In addition, the Environmental Management section of this plan sets forth numerous polices which shall ensure the preservation and enhancement of these resources and areas discovered during plan implementation. Policy LU.4.B Permitted uses in the wetlands, wetland buffers and upland areas of the National Wildlife refuge shall be under the primary jurisdiction of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service which owns and operates the refuge. The California Coastal Commission will participate in the review of improvements in these areas through "consistency" process for Federal activities. Objective LU.S Provide ample opportunities for public open space and adjacent to the natural resources of the Bayfront to increase public access to the waterfront. _~~{,~ L~ F A Di~hli^ n~rl~c „af~~_ o nnn^n +n+~linn ~nnrnvim~to_li-_-~_-~'~(,.,,~r_rgc- c•F+-+II h^ r,rn.~irlArl nlnn.^~ ~ ,r ...p ......... .... ~. .~ ...r,,.........._.. -.~ ~~_y. thE-pc rirrrn}ar of +ho 15A~~ayfrOf~t rl rol~~man+ ~ro~ oc rJo~ UtB~-9ra -~~~4i-11~3Ft- ~ well--~ [~.~~~~ rl +' Wile nr+r~nr+i ini+ioe fnr i~-ic~.~~~,.~~es~.r~.t~ . ~y)p~~ni+ieo fnr ~dc~ ~°I-ac~E88-t9-~th$-c~ ' , $~vll/e-'rBfir-ea~+f} arse' -i pl_~A nn nm~n+ Vnn+inn to occiiro +h~+ ~rh +^nonn mill nn+ ilicr~mt +ho .,, ... ,.,,.,.,...., .,.r..~......_. _.. _ _ .......__ _. _~- - w+lctl#e-hat3ita#- Objective LU.6 Permit a balanced and wel! defined mix of land uses which will be responsive to the development and conservation goals of the Bayfront LCP.

This zone includes light industrial activities (manufacturing, laboratory, wholesale businesses, storage and warehousing, etc.) and is defined by the provisions of the Chula Vista Municipal Code (CVMC) Chapter 19.44. Allocation: approximately 8 acres. Industrial -Research and Limited (I-RL). This zone includes research and development, light manufacturing, warehousing, and flexible use buildings that combine these uses with office. Allocation: approximately 14 acres. Industrial -General (I-G). This zone provides for large-scale and more intensive industrial uses such as manufacturing and public utility plants. The Goodrich facilities are within this zone. Allocation: approximately 112 acres. PUBLIC AND OPEN SPACE. This zone includes a variety of uses ranging from a Fire Station, landscaped parking within the SDG&E right-of-way {ROW) to the dedicated Open Space of the National Wildlife Refuge. Allocation: approximately 339 acres. Public and Open Space -Public and Quasi-Public (P-Q). This zone provides regulations for uses in appropriate locations that are maintained by public or publicly controlled agencies such as municipal and county agencies, school districts, and utility companies (e.g., water, gas, electricity, fire station, etc.) The site at the northeast corner of J Street and Bay Boulevard (Parcel 2g) is planned for the construction of a Chula Vista Fire Station." Portions of the SDG&E ROW within the LCP Planning Area may be physically improved at the ground level with landscaped parking areas. To encourage landscape improvements to these areas, development bonuses are permitted for projects adjacent to the ROW that implement the improvements. These bonuses allow the development to increase permitted densities and to use the ROW for parking lot expansion. Bonuses are calculated by applying the permitted land use intensity of the parcel to the adjacent portion of the ROW to be in the project and transferring this added development of the ROW onto the project site. To qualify for the bonus development, along-term lease agreement between the project proponents and SDG&E, for parking on the ROW, is required. Any landscaped parking in the SDG&E ROW north of "F" Street shall be available on weekends and evenings for use by coastal visitors. Allocation: approximately 28 acres.2 Public and Open Space -Parks and Recreation (P-R). This zone refers to all physically andlor visually accessible open lands intended for local public ownership. This category includes parks to be developed for public recreation. Parks intended for passive recreational activities will be linked via continuous, publicly accessible pedestrian and bicycle trail systems. One area is zoned as Parks and Recreation and consists of an existing park located within the LCP Planning Area. Allocation: approximately 1 acre. z Approximately 12 acres are presently used for parking by Goodrich. Chula Vista Bayfront LCP Amendment III-16 April 2012 Land Use Plan ~~ ~~ Public and Open Space -Open Space/ Wildlife Refuge Overlay (O-S). This zone applies to the National Wildlife Refuge, which is owned and operated by the USFWS. Uses are limited to wildlife habitat preservation and enhancement, scientific study, and educational uses. Other areas with significant habitat value that are not a part of Federal ownership are shown as Open Space without an overlay designation. In addition to the areas designated by this overlay, Section III-E, Environmental Management, provides specific policies and programs for responding to environmental resources within Parcel Area 3-k (Faivre Street). Determination and administration of permitted uses within the National Wildlife Refuge shall be the responsibility of the USFWS with Coastal Commission Review. Allocation: approximately 339 acres. CIRCULATION/OTHER. This category includes acreage within the major public street ROW (including I-5) and railroad ROWs within the LCP Planning Area. This acreage is not part of the "development area" within the LCP Planning Area. 3. Development Intensity Objective/Policies The intensity of development is determined by height limitations, parking requirements, on-site open space or landscape provisions, traffic and infrastructure capacity, and economic feasibility. The intensity of development consequently varies by land use type. Objective D!_ 7 Allow development intensity that provides for the economic development of the Bayfront within the capacity of public service and infrastructure systems.

Public Transit Objective/Policies The Bayfront's transportation system was developed to focus vehicular activity on the eastern edges of the property, near I-5 and its interchanges, by placing a majority of the common parking areas on the eastern properties, while designing for pedestrian connections and transit service. This will result in narrower, mare pedestrian-friendly streets along the waterfront. Strong public transit support is needed to ensure access to the western portion fo the bayfront while still limiting vehicular trips. There are florae two major public transit objectives far the Bayfront: _'=;~-.~;~~=~~~ (1) maximize use of the two trolley stops adjacent to the Bayfront area and (2) provide future shuttle bus service to interconnect the Bayfront with the trolley stations and the adjacent community aft-tho ~lo~r^I^^^,~^+ ~{ ~~~a~~.~ -ii{no~rc or~rinn rnnnn +rg zd_omnln~rm r, n+ nr~n+~~ c4~nh u~ pLh~_~nr ~nrl #hc~ l~pnpCein (++inn rocnr+lh..+„I .• r~f~ron vo fu~iliF°°'.: i±hrr thv 11/1'.-!h f rt.. nObjective PT.7 Maximize use of the public transit services by visitors and residents of the Bayfront. f el~Eiy-P~.~~ i---~e-apron-'rDl~n Re.nnnn'-~ #hn+~ ltiu°y .~, yr.~ii::rii urn. .ciifi~r~t . -+ e Ru~rfrnn+ oc.,~,ni~ll~r +h ~Anir•ihoirfrnn+ ...'+h +hq „~;~~~„g troile~tations-are-ineladed in the Plan These qqq(~}{_}n i~-~.ri~oc inrh'nh chnll hr. -, t-{~r_ro~~ou in ih4 ramnrohonci~rc.

PHYSICAL FORM AND APPEARANCE The Bayfront provides a unique opportunity to establish a harmonious relationship between the natural setting and the man-made environment. The area's natural resources and scenic quality provide a setting that has a distinctive appearance and, in turn, can promote economic success for activities located in proximity to it. Moreover, development that is properly sited and designed can support these natural areas in permanent reserve and provide for controlled access and enjoyment of them by the public. 1. Existing Conditions The Bayfront, by virtue of its location on San Diego Bay, represents a visual resource for the City and the region. Given the visibility of the coastal zone from major highways and streets, the Bayfront has the potential to create a defining City image. The Bayfront is characterized, from north to south, by the National Wildlife Refuge and the +~at~re Lati~~~°~r-Chula Vista Nature Center. a relatively flat upland area that is currently vacant ( ~ re~a~-major office and industrial facilities associated with Rehr lne. Goodrich, the SDG&E peu~e~pla+~t switchyard, the South Bay Power Plant, salt ponds, and a variety of smaller commercial and industrial uses to the south and parallel to the west side of I-5.

Policy FA.1.E All development projects shall be required to undergo a design review process (which includes architectural, site plan, landscape, and signage design), prior to the issuance of building permits, to ensure compliance with objectives and specific requirements of the City's ^esign Manual, General Plan, and appropriate zone or Area Development Plan. Objective FA.2 Improvements to the public realm should be made in conjunction with improvements to individual parcels through private development. Policy FA.2.A Concurrent with the preparation of Phase I infrastructure design plans for E and H Streets, a Gateway plan shall be prepared for E and H Streets. Prior to issuance of occupancy for any projects within the Port's jurisdiction in Phase I, the E and H Street Gateway plan shall be approved by the Port and City's Directors of Planning and Building. The E and H Street Gateway plan shall be coordinated with the Gateway plan for J Street. Policy FA.2.B Concurrent with development of Parcel 2f, the applicant shall submit a Gateway plan for J Street for City Design Review consideration. Prior to issuance of any building permits, the J Street Gateway plan shall be approved by the Director of Planning and Building in coordination with the Port's Director of Planning. The J Street Gateway plan shall be coordinated with the Gateway plan for E and H Streets. Further policies guiding Gateway design are provided in the following section (III.C.3) Policy FA.2.C The City shall create unique landscape designs and standards for medians for each major thoroughfare to distinguish each from the other and to provide a special identity for districts and neighborhoods. Policy FA.2.D The landscape designs and standards shall include a coordinated street furniture palette including waste containers and benches, to be implemented throughout the community at appropriate locations. Policy FA2.E Prior to the approval of projects that include walls that back onto roadways, the City shall require that the design achieves a uniform appearance from the street. The walls shall be uniform in height, use of materials, and color, but also incorporate elements that add visual interest, such as pilasters. Policy FA.2.F Prior to issuance of Coastal Development Permits for projects within the City's jurisdiction, the project developer shall ensure that design plans for any large scale projects (greater than two stories in height) shall incorporate standard design techniques such as articulated facades, distributed building massing, horizontal banding, stepping back of buildings, and varied color schemes to separate the building base from its upper elevation and color changes such that vertical elements are interrupted and smaller scale massing implemented. These plans shall be implemented for large project components to diminish imposing building edges, monotonous facades and straight-edge building rooflines and profiles. This shall be done to the satisfaction of the City of Chula Vista Planning Director. Objective FA.3 To provide aesthetic improvements to existing and new development, including establishing clearly identifiable gateways to the Bayfront, preserving existing views Chula Vista Bayfront LCP Amendment III-39 April 2012 Land Use Plan /~"~~` and creating enhanced views with development, and encouraging high-quality, well- integrafed, mixed-use development with a harmonious relationship between sensitive habitats and the built environment. The factors that are important to achieve this objective are: • Landscape Character Bayfront Gateways • Architecfural Edges • Views • Building Placement • Architectural Character • Wildlife Protection Policy FA.3.A Landscaping shall be used to screen those elements of the existing built environment where necessary. New development within the Chula Vista Bayfront Master Plan area shall also be accompanied by a comprehensive landscape plan. Policy FA.3.B Landscaping shall provide visual connections that integrate the surrounding environment to the new development. Policy FA.3.C The landscape pattern and Bayfront Gateways shall be coordinated with the landscape form and appearance requirements of the Port Master Pian. Policy FA.3.D Soft architectural edges shall be used where development meets public parks and open space. Soft edges are generally composed of smaller increments of change from building mass to open area. Such edges emphasize a transition instead of an abrupt change. Policy FA.3.E In addition to the wetlands setback policies (S2.C1 E) and building height policies (S2.C1E) of this Land Use Plan, the Bayfront Specific Plan shall establish building setbacks from public streets and lot boundaries to ensure appropriate building placement. Policy FA.3.F To increase view opportunities through developments, high- and mid-rise residential towers shall be oriented with their long sides parallel to the major view corridors- Policy FA.3.G A unifying, high-quality architectural character and design shall be established for all new buildings and facade enhancements. Policy FA.3.H The following basic guidelines shall be followed in the design of buildings and structures: Colors -Coloration shall be perceived as a single thematic impression made up of subtle variations. Materials -Reflective materials shall not be used. The use of reflective glass is prohibited. Sheet metal finish surfaces shall be discouraged. The use of stucco, wood, and concrete shall be encouraged. Window Openings -Window openings or patterns, especially in the mid-rise and high-rise buildings, shall avoid monotonous patterning. Smaller units of glazing and openings shall be favored over larger, single-paned openings. Chula Vista 13ayfront LCP Amendment III-40 April 2012 Land Use Plan Roofs -Flat roofs without varied parapets are discouraged. Variation in roof forms and parapet treatments shall be encouraged. To discourage avian predators, roof designs shall incorporate anti-perching elements as stipulated in the design requirements developed in cooperation with the USF&WS and to be incorporated in the Natural Resources Management Plan. Policy FA.3.1 The following basic guidelines shall be followed in regard to streetscape and pedestrian features: Architectural and street furniture detailing shall contribute to the ambience of the new development. This is most effective at the pedestrian level where such details can readily be seen. Detailing opportunities include: • Floor paving patterns • Monuments • Fountains • Bollards • Railings • Window shape and window pane mullions • Door treatments • Light standards and lighting fixtures in general • Public outdoor seating • Trash/ash receptacles • Textile amenities -banners, awnings, umbrellas • Community sign boards • Planting urns and areas • Niches in walls and wall decorations in general All of the above-cited elements shall be chosen and placed in a manner consistent for all new development to "compose" an overall theme or character reflecting the goal of a vibrant, coastal atmosphere. Objective FA.4 Development shall have a unifying, high qualify architectural character and design. Policy FA.4.A The siting and orientation of major high-rise buildings shall respect environmental issues. Such buildings shall be set back from the marsh to preclude their shadows from falling on the sensitive wetlands. In addition, the shaft have non-reflective surtace materials and be of muted colors. Policy FA.4.B A Bayfront Cultural and Design Committee ("BCDC"} shall be formed to advise the District in addressing the design of parks, cultural facilities, and development projects. The public participation process for the BCDC will include broad community representation and will be modeled after the Community Advisory Committee (CAC) process. Membership will include at least one member each from the District, Chula Vista Planning Commission, Design Review Committee, and Resource Conservation Committee. The BCDC will advise the District in the establishment of CVBMP design guidelines to address cohesive development and streetscape design standards, walkways and bikeways design to promote safe walking and biking, standards for design of park areas, and cultural facilities but will not address NRMP and Wildlife Habitat Areas design guidelines described above. A minimum of three public meeting/workshops will be held to establish the design guidelines.

Development that may affect an existing or potential public view shall be designed and sited in a manner so as to preserve or enhance designated view opportunities. Street trees and vegetation shall be chosen and sited so as not to block views upon maturity. Policy VW.1.C The impacts of proposed development on existing public views of scenic resources shall be assessed by the Port or City prior to approval of proposed development or redevelopment to preserve the existing character of the area. Policy VW.1.D Buildings and structures should be sited to provide unobstructed view corridors from the nearest scenic highway or view corridor road. These criteria may be modified when necessary to mitigate other overriding environmental considerations such as protection of habitat or wildlife corridors. Policy VW.1.E Public views of the Bay and access along the waterfront should be provided via a proposed "Baywalk" promenade. This pedestrian path would also connect to the Signature Park, and the pathway system within the Sweetwater District, ultimately linking the two districts and "enabling viewers to experience visual contact at close range with the Bay and marshlands." Policy VW.1.F Fences, walls, and landscaping shall not block major public views of scenic resources or views of other public viewing areas. Policy VW.1.G The entry to the Bayfront from "F" Street shall emphasize the view down "F" Street to the bay as this shall be a major pedestrian access point to the "F&G" Street Marsh. Policy VW.1.H Firm architectural edges shall be used to emphasize various view corridors along "H" Street, "J" Street, and Marina Parkway.

The street trees shall be closely spaced and in a regular pattern to achieve this objective. However, plant species and spacing shall be selected and designed to protect and enhance public views to the bay. Immediately west of the freeway, future buildings on the north side should be sited and designed to reinforce the sense of entry created by the street trees and existing building mass of the restaurant on the south side. Policy VW.1.K Building setbacks and coordinated signage shall be provided along Marina Parkway (a scenic roadway; City of Chula Vista General Plan). Policy VW.1.L Landscaping shall be planted along Marina Parkway to frame and enhance this scenic corridor, as well as on E Street and Bay Boulevard, adjacent to the project site. Policy VW.1.M Views of the Bay from the F Street and E Street corridors shall be preserved and views of the Bay would be created from the H Street corridor. Objective VW.2 Locate buildings in a manner that enhances views. The following view types have been identified. • Panoramic views- Typically views in the far disfance (bay views). • Framed views- Views between landscape elements, natural forms, or architectural elements; usually characterized as a view corridors. • Axial Views- Views on axis sometimes with a focal element, usually architectural and vertically oriented. Objective VW.3 Locate buildings in a manner which enhances views and minimizes impacts to adjacent wildlife habifat area. Policy VW.3.A Views shall be locally focused within the urban areas to enhance the sense of arrival at the center of urban activity. Special attention should be given to plazas, architectural elements, plantings, and other landscape features to reinforce the area as a focal point.

Chula Vista Bayfront LGP Amendment III-50 Land Use Plan f~~~Q~ April 2012 1. Existing Conditions eet~strt+stien-- Surface and sub-surface conditions vary throughout the Bayfront. The Bayfront is situated within the western portion of the Peninsular Ranges geomorphic province of southern California. According to published geologic maps and available geologic reports, the Bayfront area is underlain by fill materials, topsoils, bay deposits/alluvium, the Bay Point Formation, and the San Diego Formation. Fill soils underlie several portions of the site and can range in depth from a few feet to on the order of 10 feet in depth. Topsoil is present on undeveloped areas within the Bayfront at depths of roughly 1 to 3 feet. Areas near the western edge of the Bayfront appear to be characterized by bay deposits/alluvium. These surface soils are typically underlain by the Bay Point Formation and at depth, by the San Diego Formation. Groundwater within the Bayfront is expected from 2 to 15 feet below existing surface grades. The Bayfront area is subject to settlement hazards attributable to the presence of relatively shallow surficial deposits of soft compressible bay deposits/alluvium, minor to moderate thicknesses of fill ~nuia vista rsayrronc ~LN Amendment III-51 April 2012 Land Use Plan ~~°~'~~ soils, and topsoils. The bay deposits/alluvium consist of an organic sandy silt to silty clay that is typically loose and not suitable for structural support. In addition, minor to moderate thicknesses of fill soils are present and, due to the age of the materials, it is considered unlikely that information on the compaction of fill materials is unavailable. Uncompacted fill material that may shift and settle and is not suitable for structural support. Topsoil was also identified on-site and is not considered suitable for support of structural fill, buildings, or other improvements. All of these existing conditions contribute to settlement hazards within the Bayfront and indicate the need for further site-specific geotechnical investigations for proposed developments.

The Bayfront is not underlain by any known active or potentially active fault nor is the site located within a State of California Earthquake Fault (Alquist-Priolo) Zone. However, one major fault has been mapped near the Chula Vista coastal zone: the north-northwest-trending Rose Canyon fault. Strands of the Rose Canyon fault have been mapped approximately 0.5 to 2 miles west of the Bayfront. While there is no active fault underlying the Bayfront, segments of the Rose Canyon fault are considered active and the possibility of seismic activity cannot be disregarded in evaluating the safety of critical structures such as power plants, public assembly buildings, etc. The probable effect of renewed activity along the Rose Canyon, or other nearby faults would be moderate to severe ground shaking, with surface rupture in the LCP Planning Area unlikely. The planning implications of these soils and geologic conditions relate to public safety and the economics of development. There is the possibility of soil liquefaction during a severe earthquake. This is of special concern in tideland areas reclaimed by hydraulically-placed fills. The potential for liquefaction and seismically induced settling within the Bayfront is considered to be moderate to high. A detailed evaluation of liquefaction should be made for any future major Bayfront engineering project. Utility and Roadway Improvements The northern portion of the Chula Vista Bayfront (north of "F" Street) is primarily vacant at this #ime. Utilities have been stubbed to the boundaries of the site and a major sewer line passes along the eastern edge of the property. Most of the utility lines are at the edge of a utility district and lack a complete network to provide sewer and water service to initial projects without looping utilities or building off-site improvements. Marina Parkway has been constructed from "J" Street at I-5 westerly and northerly to the north end of ~_'~~~~r_-1+±~:}~ar~r=~; the Goodrich parcel (at the prolongation of "G" Street). The majority of that street, together with the Chula Vista Marina and RV Park, are on ~lr~ili~.~,,- ;~~,g-G-ai~~~1:~-;r-:sf:~,~} within Port jurisdiction. Existing streets and utility systems provide service to the southern portions and inland parcel of the Bayfront. .I.rx:;~-~~tL_r~?~,;-i,~,~,;.~~~tJ ~~;rat~+-;.>~y The Sweetwater Authority, which obtains water from local reservoirs and purchases from the San Diego County Water Authority (SDCWA), provides water to the Bayfront area. The Metropolitan Water District of Southern California furnishes water to the SDCWA via aqueducts, including a 69-inch pipeline that Sweetwater Authority taps near the Sweetwater Reservoir 7 miles east of the project area. The Metropolitan Sewerage System of San Diego (Metro System), of which Chula Vista is a member agency, serves the City via a 78-inch-diameter trunk sewer, which lies easterly of the an-site railroad line and drains northerly to the Point Loma Sewage Treatment Plant. ~~'~prc~ve~r°^+,~,,-tee-tom 2.

Background/Existing Conditions The proposed project site is relatively flat, although a slightly elevated area is located in the Sweetwater District. The surface elevation of the site ranges between approximately 5 and 25 feet above mean sea level. The Sweetwater District is undeveloped and currently composed primarily of fallow fields. The majority of vegetation is generally ruderal with small areas of disturbed native habitats, including California coastal sage scrub. The Harbor and Otay Districts are generally developed and consist of limited areas designated as jurisdictional waters. Marine and biological resources are abundant in the project area, primarily due to its proximity to San Diego Bay and the estimated 3,940-acre San Diego Bay Natural Wildlife Refuge (SDBNWRj south of Chula Vista Bayfront LCP Amendment III-56 April 2012 Land Use Plan 1~ ~~ the Plan Area. The SDBNWR preserves mudflats, salt marsh, submerged lands, and eelgrass beds that provide a fertile breeding ground for a wide range of species, including many designated threatened and endangered species. The Sweetwater Marsh National Wildlife Refuge, Chula Vista Nature Center, and "F&G" Street Marsh are all components of the larger SDBNWR. The unique ecosystem characteristics of the south San Diego Bay have made the area a resting area on the Pacific Flyway for a wide variety of resident and migratory shorebirds and water fowl, as well as a fertile breeding ground for a range of aquatic and land species. A continuing major objective of the Ghula Vista LCP is the preservation, protection, and enhancement of sensitive wetlands and upland wildlife habitat resources in the Bayfront. With the 1988 establishment of the 316-acre National Wildlife Refuge, a substantial portion of this objective was achieved. Virtually all the wetlands and biologically valuable upland resources identified in the 1984 LCP are now incorporated in the National Wildlife Refuge under Federal ownership and management. Now that preservation of these resources is ensured, it is appropriate that the environmental management focus an long-term protection and enhancement. Accordingly, the primary environmental management objective of the Land Use Plan is the ongoing, long-term protection of critical natural habitat areas. In addition, a major secondary objective is the enhancement of natural resources in the Chula Vista Bayfrvnt area, with particular emphasis on the resources in the National Wildlife Refuge. The USFWS refuge lands and other open space areas, including potentially Environmental Sensitive Habitat Areas (ESHAs) are shown in the Environmental Management Map (Exhibit 12). Thus, the Environmental Objectives and Policies focus primarily on protection of natural resources by ensuring that development ^f }~~":~;bay#renbar-ea-~}}-is planned and implemented in a manner that is compatible with the resources of the Wildlife Refuge. ~:u,;s-t"~° °^~ +"^ ^~^~~~~~ f tie amen+ol hA rvnrn~nt_C~nlin^c L ~mi4' t' n v ~mr~~^fn f -~ 4 rl rf^, ^l~rtmn + +H 'TC`a'-r°'trrTCt9 c'r '-°~Fccr'c--t n-nci~uci^vri- ~ m-r~r~-vr-czr-~~'I~-}~, tiv-vcvc vpr ~ rcrrt-rr-r-crrv by the Port Master Plan. ~nuia visra tsaytront LCP Amendment III-57 April 2012 Land Use Plan ~~ 1 i C ` y Y' ~ h C Y ,.\ ~ f \ ._ } ; w 1 ~f 1~ 1 5~ '~ r. ~ ~} 7 y~ r h r i3 ~>.AV v Y x wt 5 ;%syt '~ S ~q ' C r -fi t A l ' s ,,('( 1 } ~K~ ~ y~ Lt 1 111\ t . { ~ 1'~ t t ti~ ~ i f _~ ~d ~ ~.. r~4 ri ~ } ~, ,..<- _.., .

In general, walkway and overlook designs will minimize visual impacts on the Wildlife Habitat Areas of people on the walkways. Policy NR.8.6 The NRMP will include provisions designed to manage Predator impacts on Wildlife Habitat Areas which will include and comply with the following: Year-round, funded Predator management will be implemented for the life of the Chula Vista Bayfront project with clearly delineated roles and responsibilities for the District, City and Resource Agencies. The primary objective of such provisions will be to adequately protect terns, rails, plovers, shorebirds, over- wintering species, and other species of high management priority as determined by the Resource Agencies. • Predator management will include regular foot patrols and utilize tracking techniques to find and remove domestic or feral animals. Predator attraction and trash management shall be addressed for all areas of the Chula Vista Bayfront project by identifying clear management measures and restrictions. Examples of the foregoing include design of trash containers, including those in park areas and commercial dumpsters, to be covered and self- closing at all times, design of containment systems to prevent access by sea gulls, rats, crows, pigeons, skunks, opossums, raccoons, and similar animals and adequate and frequent servicing of trash receptacles. • All buildings, signage, walkways, overlooks, light standards, roofs, balconies, ledges, and other structures that could provide line of sight views of Wildlife Chula Vista Bayfront LCP Amendment III-70 Land Use Plan / ~i ~~ Habitat Areas will be designed in a manner to discourage their use as raptor perches or nests. Objective NR.9 Implement measures to limit urban runoff from development into wildlife areas Policy NR.9.A Vegetation-based storm water treatment facilities, such as natural berms, swales, and detention areas are appropriate uses for Buffer Areas so long as they are designed using native plant species and serve dual functions as habitat areas. Provisions for access for non-destructive maintenance and removal of litter and excess sediment will be integrated into these facilities. In areas that provide for the natural treatment of runoff, cattails, bulrush, mulefat, willow, and the like are permissible. Policy NR.9.B Storm water and non-point source urban runoff into Wildlife Habitat Areas must be monitored and managed so as to prevent unwanted ecotype conversion or weed invasion. A plan to address the occurrence of any erosion or type conversion will be developed and implemented, if necessary. Monitoring will include an assessment of stream bed scouring and habitat degradation, sediment accumulation, shoreline erosion and stream bed widening, loss of aquatic species, and decreased base flow. Policy NR.9.C The use of persistent pesticides or fertilizers in landscaping that drains into Wildlife Habitat Areas is prohibited. Policy NR.9.D Integrated Pest Management must be used in all outdoor, public, buffer, habitat, and park areas.

Policy NR.9.G In order to ensure that sensitive resources are protected from adjacent development, fencing shall be required for the 100-foot buffer on the north side of parcel 1-a prior to any physical alterations of the site. In addition, at the time project specific development is proposed on parcels 1-a shading impacts, appropriate setbacks, step backs, and/or height reductions, will be analyzed as part of the necessary subsequent environmental review for those projects. issues. Policy NR.10.A A South Bay Wildlife Advisory Group ("Wildlife Advisory Group") will be formed to advise the District and City in the creation of the NRMP, cooperative management agreements, Adaptive Management Review and any related wildlife management and restoration plans or prioritizations. The Wildlife Advisory Group will also address management issues and options for resolution. The Wildlife Advisory Group will initiate and support funding requests to the District and City, identify priorities for use of these funds and engage in partnering, education, and volunteerism to support the development of the Chula Vista Bayfront in a manner that effectively protects and enhances the fish, wildlife, and habitats of the area and educates and engages the public. The Wildlife Advisory Group will meet as needed, but at a minimum of every six (6) months for the first ten (10) years and annually thereafter. Chula Vista Bayfront LCP Amendment III-71 April 2012 Land Use Plan ~`'~~ Policy NR.10.B The Wildlife Advisory Group will meet to: (i) determine the effectiveness of the NRMP in achieving the Management Objectives; (ii) identify any changes or adjustments to the NRMP required to better achieve the Management Objectives; (iii) identify any changes or adjustments to the NRMP required to respond to changes in the man- made and natural environments that are affecting or, with the passage of time may affect, the effectiveness of the NRMP in achieving the Management Objectives; and (iv) review priorities relative to available funding. At its periodic meetings, the Wildlife Advisory Group may also consider and make recommendations regarding (a) implementation of the NRMP as needed, (b) Adaptive Management Review and (c) NRMP Amendments. Policy NR.10.C The Wildlife Advisory Group will advise the JPA on expenditure of the Community Benefits Fund consistent with this plan subject to applicable law. Written recommendations from the Wildlife Advisory Group will be forwarded to the District and City for consideration on key decisions as the build-out of the Chula Vista Bayfront project occurs. Objective NR.11 Prior to issuance of any building permits, building plans shall be reviewed by a qualified biologist retained by the developer and approved by the Port or the City. to verify that the proposed building has incorporated specific design features to avoid or to reduce the potential for bird sfrikes. Policy NR.11.A The following lighting design guidelines shall be followed in order to prevent bird strikes: • No solid red or pulsating red lights shall be installed on or near the building unless required by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). • Where lighting must be used for safety reasons (FAA 2000 Advisory Circular), minimum intensity, maximum off-phased (3 seconds between flashes) white strobes shall be used. • No solid spot lights or intense bright lights shall be used during bird migration periods in the spring (from March to May) and Fall (from August to October). All event lighting shall be directed downward and shielded, unless such directed and shielded minimized light spills beyond the area for which illumination is required. • Exterior lighting shall be limited to that which is necessary and appropriate to ensure general public safety and way finding, including signage for building identification and way finding. • Exterior lighting shall be directed downward and shielded to prevent upward lighting and to minimize light spill beyond the area for which illumination is required. • Office space, residential units, and hotel rooms shall be equipped with motion sensors, timers, or other lighting control systems to ensure that lighting is extinguished when the space is unoccupied. • Office space, residential units, and hotel rooms shall be equipped with blinds, drapes, or other window coverings that may be closed to minimize the effects of interior night lighting. Policy NR.11.6 The following guidelines should be followed when designing glass and reflective surfaces in the Bayfront Development. Chula Vista Bayfront LCP Amendment III-72 April 2012 Land Use Plan ~f ~~ • Use of reflective coatings on any glass surface is prohibited. Buildings shall incorporate measures to the satisfaction of the Port or the City to indicate to birds that the glass surface is solid by creating visual markers and muting reflection. • Project design standards will encourage window stencilling and angling. These measures may include but are not limited to the following: i. Glass surfaces which are non-reflective ii. Glass surfaces which are tilted at a downward angle iii. Glass surfaces which use fritted or patterned glass iv. Glass surfaces which use vertical or horizontal mullions or other fenestration patterns v. Glass surfaces which are fitted with screening, decorative grills, or louvers vi. Glass surfaces which use awnings, overhangs, bris sole, or other exterior sun-shading devices vii. Glass surfaces which use external films or coatings perceivable by birds viii. Artwork, drapery, banners, and wall coverings that counter the reflection of glass surfaces or block "see through" pathways. Policy NR.11.C Buildings heights, massing and set-backs shall be designed to minimize bird strikes. • Structure design will include secondary and tertiary setbacks and, to the maximum extent possible, stepped back building design, protruding balconies, recessed windows, and mullioned glazing systems, shall be incorporated to the extent feasible. Balconies and other elements will step back from the water's edge. Design features that increase the potential for bird strikes, such as walkways constructed of clear glass and "see through" pathways through lobbies, rooms and corridors, shall be avoided to the extent feasible. Buildingsshall be sited and designed to minimize glass and windows facing Wildlife Habitat Areas to the maximum extent possible. Parcels containing surface parking, such as those depicted for the Sweetwater District, will be designed with parking lots located nearer to the Wildlife Habitat Areas. Site plans on parcels adjacent to Wildlife Habitat Areas will maximize distance between structures and such areas. Policy NR.11.D Landscaping shall be designed to minimize bird strikes on surrounding buildings. • Exterior trees and landscaping shall be located and glass surfaces shall incorporate measures so that exterior trees and landscaping are not reflected on building surfaces. • In small exterior courtyards and recessed areas, the building's edge shall be clearly defined with opaque materials and non-reflective glass. • Interior plants shall be located a minimum of 10 feet away from glass surfaces to avoid or reduce the potential for attracting birds. Policy NR.11.E Owners and operators of buildings will conduct ongoing public education programs to ensure that bird-strike avoidance policies are followed by building users. Chula Vista Bayfront LCP Amendment III-73 April 2012 Land Use Plan ~~ ~~ The owner or operator of each building shall implement an ongoing procedure to the satisfaction of the Port or the City to encourage tenants, residents, and guests to close their blinds, drapes, or other window coverings to reduce or avoid the potential for bird strikes. The owner or operator of each building shall enroll in the Fatal Light Awareness Program's "Bird-Friendly Building Program" and shall implement ongoing tenant, resident, and guest education strategies, to the satisfaction of the Part or the City, to reduce or avoid the potential for bird strikes, such as elevator and lobby signage and educational displays, a-mail alerts and other bulletins during spring and fal( migratory seasons, and other activities designed to enlist cooperation in reducing bird collisions with the building. Policy NR_11.F Project applicants shall develop a bird strike monitoring program for their proposed projects. For Phase I projects, the project applicant shall retain a qualified biologist to design a protocol and schedule, in consultation with the U.S. Department of Fish and Wildlife and subject to the approval of the Port or City, as appropriate depending on jurisdiction, to monitor bird strikes which may occur during the first 12 months after the completion of construction. Within 60 days after completion of the monitoring period, the qualified biologist shall submit a written report to the Port or the City, which shall state the biologist's findings and recommendations regarding any bird strikes that occurred. Based on the findings of those reports, the Port or the City, as appropriate depending on jurisdiction, in coordination with the U.S_ Department of Fish and Wildlife, will evaluate whether further action is required, which may include further monitoring. Policy NR.11.G Bird strikes must be monitored and measures developed to address persistent problem areas in accordance with the Natural Resources Management Plan (NRMP). Nighttime fighting in tower buildings must be addressed and evaluated through adaptive management such that impacts on birds are avoided or minimized. Minimization of impacts of buildings on birds and the Wildlife Habitat Areas will be a priority in the selection of window coverings, glass color, other exterior materials, and design of exterior lighting and lighting of signs.

Some of the development issues may not have Subarea specific conditions and would therefore be guided by the areawide objectives and policies. The three subareas are addressed below in two sections. The first section is the Special Subarea Conditions and the following section is the Subarea Objective/Policies discussion. The first section provides a general description of existing Subarea conditions. The second section provides basic objectives as well as specific policy provisions used to guide development and resource enhancement within each Subarea of the Chula Vista Bayfront area. Within the three subarea discussions, the objectives and policies consist of the same five issue categories addressed in the Areawide Section (Section III) of the Land Use Plan_ The five issue categories are Land Use; Circulation, Public Access, and Parking; Physical Form and Appearance; Utilities and Areawide Grading; and Environmental Management. Chula Vista Bayfront LCP Amendment IV-87 Land Use Plan April 2012 /o-~~~° A. SUBAREA 1 - SWEETWATER DISTRICT 1. Special Subarea Conditions Subarea 1, Sweetwater District covers approximately 369 acres of land, plus 39 acres of land covered by the northern inland parcel. The majority of the land within this subarea is owned by the Federal Government and is operated by the USFWS as the Sweetwater Marsh National Wildlife Refuge. USFWS lands include approximately 316 acres of important salt marsh and coastal uplands wildlife habitat within the LCP Planning Area (Sweetwater and F&G Street Marshes). Government ownership ensures that any development under that ownership will be consistent with Federal environmental protection laws. The remainder of the ownerships in this subarea, within the LCP Planning Area, consists of SDG&E, San Diego and Arizona Eastern Railway Company, and Union Pacific Railroad Company easements; a City of Chula Vista parcel; and four parcels located along the eastern edge of the Sweetwater District that are owned by CVAFG LLC, Good Nite Inn Chula Vista Incorporated, EI Torito Restaurants Incorporated, and Bay Boulevard Associates LLC, respectively. Two parcels in the Sweetwater District (inland parcel) are also owned by private entities including Wal Mart and Best Buy, as well as other various industrial owners. The remaining six Sweetwater District parcels were previously owned by a private entity but were transferred to the Port as part of the land exchange, which is addressed in the land exchange parcels discussion under Subarea 2, and as such are governed by the provisions set forth in the Port Master Plan. The primary use of the Sweetwater Subarea parcels within the LCP Planning Area, but outside of the Sweetwater Marsh National Wildlife Refuge, is commercial and industrial (inland parcel), including a small motel, restaurants, an office building Wal Mart, Best Buy and other industrial uses. 2. Subarea ObiectivelPolicies Land Use Objective SA1.LU.7 Implement the land exchange fo minimize impacf to environmentally sensitive lands from potential development adjacent to the Sweetwater Marsh National Wildlife Refuge and place more intensive development on less environmentally sensitive lands in Subarea 2. Development of parcels under Port jurisdiction in the Sweetwater District is governed by fhe provisions of the Port Master Plan. Policy- SA1.LU.1.A Development intensity within this area is determined by building heights and site development standards. Development in this area shall be coordinated with the Port and other regulatory agencies. Circulation, Public Access, and Parking Areawide policies apply- No additional subarea specific policies have been identified. Physical Form and Appearance Chula Vista Bayfront LCP Amendment IV-88 April ZU11 Land Use Plan / 7 ~/ ~~~ Policy SA1.PF.1.A Provide a clearly identifiable gateway to the Bayfront at the intersection of Bay Boulevard and "E" Street concurrent with the development occurring between "C" and "F" Streets. Policy SA1.PF.1.B The Bay Boulevard and "E" Street entry shall be a primary northern entry into the Bayfront. This gateway shall provide a memorable image of the Bayfront. Landscape framing and architectural elements flanking the entry must reflect the importance of this entrance. Policy SA1.PF.1.C A canopy of trees shall be provided along both sides of Bay Boulevard at the Southbound I-5 off-ramp to "E" Street/Bay Boulevard. The "E" Street/Bay Boulevard intersection shall be enhanced with landscaping, signage, lighting, paving, and other features, which will identify it as a northern pedestrian, vehicular, and bicycle gateway to the Bayfront. Utilities and Areawide Grading Areawide policies apply. No additional subarea specific policies have been identified. Environmental Management Objective SA1.EM.9Protect, maintain, and enhance wildlife habitat within the Sweetwater Marsh National Wildlife Refuge while allowing public enjoyment of coastal resources. Policy SA1.EM.1 The environmental management policies established in this Land Use Plan, and in the future Natural Resources Management Plan, which protect and enhance the wetlands and habitat areas, shall be implemented to ensure that any development permitted on adjacent parcels will be consistent with the needs of the adjacent National Wildlife Refuge. Park Development Objective SA1.P. 9 Ensure strong pedestrian access to parks in the Sweetwater Subarea and between these parks and other areas of the Bayfront. Policy SA1.P_1.A The concept approval for the Signature Park will include a refined plan to address the linkage between parks over the F and G Street channel. The design will ensure that the linkage between the two areas of the Signature Park is easily accessed, obvious, and allows visitors to flow naturally and safely between the two areas of the park. A pedestrian bridge will be evaluated and, if necessary, a supplemental environmental review will be performed to address any necessary issues prior to the concept approval being forwarded to the Board of Port Commissioners. Policy SA1.P.1.6 Create a meandering pedestrian trail constructed of natural material that is easily maintained and interwoven throughout the Signature Park. Policy SA1.P.1.C Create, as part of the E Street Extension, a pedestrian pathway/bridge to provide a safe route for pedestrians to walk and to transition from the Sweetwater District to the Harbor Park Shoreline Promenade and park in the Harbor District. Policy SA1.P.1.D Segregate pedestrian and bike trails where feasible. Chula Vista Bayfront LCP Amendment IV-89 April 2012 Land Use Plan ~y~ ~'f''' ~ l Policy SA1.PD.1.E Provide a meandering public trail along the entire length of the 8ayfront. Leave unpaved the meandering trail within the Sweetwater Park and adjacent to Buffer Areas Objective SA7.P.2 Sweetwater District Public Parks should be designed to minimize impacts on adjacent wildlife areas. Policy SA1.P.2,A The parks will be Passive in nature and encourage Passive recreation, be low- impact and contain minimal permanent structures. Structures will be limited to single-story heights and will be limited in function to restrooms, picnic tables, shade structures and overlooks. The term "Passive" will mean that which emphasizes the open-space aspect of a park and which involves a low level of development, including picnic areas and trails. In contrast, active recreation is that which requires intensive development and includes programmable elements that involve cooperative or team activity, including, ball fields and skate parks. Policy SA1.P.2.B The parks will be constructed using low water-use ground cover alternatives where possible. Policy SA1.P.2.C Pedestrian and bike trails will be segregated where feasible. A meandering public trail will be provided along the entire length of the Bayfront. The meandering trail within the Sweetwater Park and adjacent to Buffer Areas will not be paved. Policy SA1.P.2.D The parks will not include athletic Feld amenities. Policy SA1.P.2.E No unattended food vending will be allowed. Policy SA1.P.2.F The parks will include enforcement signage that prohibits tenants, employees, residents, or visitors from feeding or encouraging feral cat colonies and prevents feral cat drop-off or abandonment of pets; and prohibits leash free areas near buffers. Policy SA1.P.2.G The use of amplified sound equipment will be prohibited. Policy SA1.P.2.F Reservations for group events and activities will be prohibited. SUBAREA 2 -HARBOR DISTRICT 1. Special Subarea Conditions Subarea 2, Harbor District generally extends from the north side of "F" Street to the south side of "J" Street and contains approximately 195 acres of land. The primary land use in the Harbor Subarea is the Goodrich industrial and manufacturing facility. This was an existing use at the time the Chula Vista Bayfront LCP was first adopted. When the facilities were constructed, landscaping and building aesthetics were not an issue of concern. This use is anticipated to remain, and limited expansion is permitted under the provisions of this Plan. However, landscaping and other aesthetic improvements for the existing, as well as new development, is desirable. A Fire Station is planned to be built on Paces 2g in the Harbor District. Chula Vista Bayfront LCP Amendment 1V-90 Land Use Plan f~ ~' April 2Q12 The balance of land within the Harbor Subarea is owned by the USFWS, Foster Properties, Pacific Trust Bank, the City of Chula Vista Redevelopment Agency, the State of California, and a private entity as a result of the land exchange. Land Exchange Parcels The six parcels that transferred from a private entity's control and City jurisdiction to Port ownership and jurisdiction include CVBMP Parcels S-1, S-2, S-3, SP-1, SP-2, and SP-3, which are covered by the provisions of the Port Master Plan. The four parcels that transferred from Port ownership and jurisdiction to a private entity's ownership and City jurisdiction, and are covered by the provisions of this LCP, include CVBMP Parcels H-13, H-14, H-15, and HP-5,. Across-reference of the LCP Planning Area parcel numbers and CVBMP parcel numbers is summarized below in Table 4-2 and shown in Exhibit 13.

Special Subarea Conditions The Otay District is located generally south of "J" Street and west of I-5. The Otay River is this subarea's southern boundary. This area is within the Coastal Zone but only a limited number of parcels are within the LCP Planning Area, Subarea 3. Approximately 158 acres and 13 parcel areas are within the Subarea 3 LCP boundary. An additional inland parcel area (Parcel Area 3-k) within Subarea 3 is located south of the western end of Faivre Street, adjacent to the San Diego Trolley tracks. The site was annexed to Chula Vista in December 1985 as a part of the Montgomery Annexation. It is approximately 10 acres in size and is primarily used as a lumber yard distribution facility and open space. These current uses are unsightly and are especially visible from the trolley tracks, which are elevated along the western edge of the parcel. None of the parcels in the Otay District are part of the land exchange; therefore no changes in land use occur as a result of the implementation of the CVBMP. 2.

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION In accordance with the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the proposed LCP amendments were the subject of the Final Environmental Impact Repor( (EIR) prepared for the Bayfront Maser Plan and Port Master Plan Antendrnenl (dated April 2010) (UPD #83356-E/R-6.i8; SCFI No. 200081077) (Final EIR) which was certified on May 18, 2010 and whereby, the requisite CEQA Findings of Pact pursuant to Section 15096(h) of the CEQA Guidelines and a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) were adopted. B. CONSISTENCY WITH GENERAL PLAN AND CALIFORNIA COASTAL ACT The City Council finds that the amendment to the Local Coastal Program Specific Plan, including the Coastal Commission suggested modifications thereto, are consistent with the City of Chula Vista General Plan and the California Coastal Act Policies. The proposed amendment and suggested modifications are based on sound planning principles and practices that will provide for the protection and conservation of sensitive natural resources. The amendment allows the transfer of development from the Sweetwater District to the Harbor District, which is a previously developed and less sensitive area of the Bayfront, leading to the development of a project that will minimize potential negative impacts. The amendment will also contribute to provide and conserve bay views and provide more direct access to the Bayfront creating better connection to the rest of the city and the region. This will open up the Bayfront for the enjoyment of residents and visitors. The proposed amendment will be conducive to the development of the Bayfront and the creation of a world-class destination for residents and visitors. C. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT AND ACCEPTANCE OF RESOLUTION The City Council does hereby acknowledge receipt of the California Coastal Commission resolution of certification, as referenced in the California Coastal Commission's Staff Report of August 9, 2012, including all of the suggested modifications to the Local Coastal Plan Specific Plan, and accept the same.

Form and Appearance Objectives. The following objectives shall serve as guidelines for use of land and water resources to preserve a sound natural environment: a. Preserve existing wetlands in a healthy state to ensure the aesthetic enjoyment of marshes and the wildlife that inhabit them. b. Change the existing industrial image of the Bayfront and develop a new identity consonant with its future prominent public and commercial recreational role. c. Improve the visual quality of the shoreline by promoting public and private uses that provide proper restoration, landscaping, and maintenance of shoreline areas. d. Remove, or mitigate by landscaping, structures or conditions that have a blighting influence on the area. e. Eliminate or reduce barriers to linking the Bayfront to the rest of western Chula Vista and establishes a memorable relationship between the Bayfront (and the areas and elements that comprise it) and adjoining areas of Chula Vista, the freeway, and arterial approaches to the Bayfront (see Exhibit 6, Form and Appearance Map). 2, Specific Provisions. To promote these--;~oaicies, requirements, the form and appearance provisions of the LUP acknowledges three major components that comprise the physical form of the area: natural resources areas to be preserved; an-r~e~-spae~ public space and recreation system, including walkways, bicycle ways, and park areas; and development units having common usage and/or qualities, which should be treated as distinctive, but closely interrelated, visual entities.

Sediment basins (debris basins, desilting basins, or silt traps) shall be installed in conjunction with the initial grading operations and maintained through the development process as necessary to remove sediment from runoff waters draining from the land undergoing development. Areas disturbed but not completed prior to November 1, including graded pads and stockpiles, shall be suitably prepared to prevent excessive soil loss during the late fall and winter seasons. All graded areas shall be stabilized prior to November 1, by means of native vegetation, if feasible, or by other suitable means approved by the City. The use of vegetation as a means to control site erosion shall be accomplished pursuant to plans and specifications prepared by a licensed landscape architect or other qualified professional. Erosion control utilizing vegetation may include, but is not limited to, seeding, mulching, fertilization, and irrigation within sufficient time prior to November 1 to provide landscape coverage that is adequate to achieve the provisions of this policy. Temporary erosion control measures shall include the use of berms, interceptor ditches, filtered inlets, debris basins, silt traps, or other similar means of equal or greater effectiveness. From November 1 to March 31, grading may be permitted, provided the applicant conforms to the requirements of subsection ,{2~(c) of this section and submits monthly documentation within 2 weeks following the end of the preceding month to the City Engineer of the condition of the erosion control procedures for graded pads, slopes, and stockpiles whenever precipitation during the month exceeds 2 inches. c. From November 1 to March 31, grading may occur in phased increments as determined by the City Engineer, provided all of the following requirements have been met. Grading from April 1 through October 31 shall be subject to standard practices. 1) The increments shall be limited to those areas that have been prepared to control the effects of soil erosion. Control measures, such as sedimentation basins detention basins and other facilities, shall be scheduled and placed in a sequence that shall minimize and control the off-site transportation of sediments. Such erosion control measures shall be installed for such increments prior to commencing any grading that would be performed during the period. between November 1 and March 31. ' 2) The applicant shall pest a deposit for such areas to be graded, which shall remain in force and effect for 1 year after final inspection approval of grading by the City The deposit shall be sufficient to cover the costs of any remedial grading and replanting of vegetation, including any restoration of wetlands, or other environmentally sensitive habitat areas adversely affected by the failure of the erosion control measures required herein, as determined by the City Engineer. The deposit will inure to the benefit of the City in case of noncompliance as determined by the City Engineer. 3) The applicant agrees to provide daily documentation to the City Engineer of the condition of the erosion control procedures for any 24-hour period in which precipitation exceeds 0.25 inches. Such documentation shall be provided within 5 working days of said 24-hour period. Failure to provide such documentation of the occurrence of any significant discharge of sediments or silts in violation of this policy shall constitute_~grounds for suspension of the applicant's grading permit(s) during the period of November 1 to March 31.

The City Engineer shall document noncompliance of projects with the grading and erosion control requirements and correct problems with funds from the deposit posted by the applicant. c. The City Engineer will periodically review and prepare a report on the effectiveness of the runoff and erosion control measures for areas within the Chula Vista coastal zone. The initial report shall be completed within 2 years following February 1989 and thereafter 6 months prior to any scheduled review by the California Coastal Commission of the LCP for the City. A copy of the report shall be submitted to the Chula Vista City Council and to the Executive Director of the Coastal Commission. 4. All areas disturbed by grading shall be planted within 60 days of the initial disturbance and prior to November 1 with temporary or permanent (in the case of finished slopes) erosion control methods. Such planting shall be accomplished under the supervision of a licensed landscape architect and shall consist of seeding, mulching, fertilization, and irrigation adequate to provide 90 percent coverage within 90 days. Planting shall be repeated if the required level of coverage is not established. This requirement shall apply to all distributed soils including stockpiles. 5.

Objectives 1. To establish guidelines and criteria for all signs within the Chula Vista Bayfront Redevelopment Project area. 2. To establish a design review board charged with the following tasks: (a) to make decisions regarding appropriateness of private signs; (b) to preserve the integrity of the Bayfront; and (c) to encourage creative sign design. 3. To encourage vitality within a development through the use of sign design. 4. To avoid the proliferation of private business signs along the freeway. 5. To incorporate into the design of public signs the elements of the Bayfront logo. 6. To promote Bayfront development progress, special events, and to identify, discreetly but effectively, new businesses coming into the area. 7. To assure equality in sign impact. 8. To establish "Bayfront" identity through a cooperative program with Caltrans. DESIGN REVIEW The City of Chula Vista's Design Review Board shall review all parts of the Bayfront project -the architecture, landscaping proposals, and each sign proposed for the area. This mechanism will ensure the regulation and control needed to create a distinctive atmosphere for the Bayfront. Ghapter 19.85 April 2012 City of Chula Vista -77 of 123 Bayfront Specific Plan //-l~al~ Chula Vista Design Review Board -Appointed The Chula Vista Design Review Board has been appointed to function as the design review board herein described and has been charged with the responsibility of interpreting and applying sign design guidelines contained in this document. The board is specifically directed to encourage creative sign design and diversity. The rorlo~iolnr~mc„} „moo,,,.,, City Council shall retain ultimate authority for fair and equitable application. Submittal and Review Procedures Submittal of a complete program of all desired signs shall be required far every development proposed within the bayfront. Sign plans should be submitted coincidentally with development plans scheduled for architectural review. The minimum submittal shall include a plot plan with property lines, building footprints, curb and center lines of adjacent streets, building and sign elevations, and location of each proposed sign. Each sign will be drawn to scale indicating colors, materials, typestyles, dimensions of lettering, copy areas, sign height and width, methods and intensity of lighting, and means of installation. The Design Review Board has established its own requirements and procedures for submittals and has the discretion to change these from time to time as it deems necessary. The Design Review Board also has the authority to allow an individual project to deviate from established guidelines if the character of the bayfront will be enhanced by its action. GUIDELINES: IN GENERAL Design Intent and Rationale This sign program strives to ensure that graphics in general, and each sign in particular, becomes a viable, integral part of the concept of Chula Vista bayfront redevelopment. The intent of this program is to establish a format for imaginative sign design which is appropriate far the bayfront. Every effort must be made to create graphic identifications that are.integral and consistent with the bayfront theme and with the architecture of each particular project- Graphic identifications which are symbolic of the business or service rather than standard "letter copy" are encouraged, i.e., logo. The design of signing for a project within this area should consider using pictorial imagery in combination with well- considered typefaces, spacing, colors, and material. (Refer to Exhibit Two for rule of good sign design.) City of Chula Vista Chapter 19.85 Bayfront Specific Plan 78 of 123 April 2Q12 1/-~/ p Two-Phase Program Because the needs of businesses in the bayfront will be different in its early stages and in the final development, guidelines have been adopted to accommodate their needs during both these phases. During the interim phase (early in bayfront development), developments will receive liberal signing. Once the bayfront is sufficiently developed, the need for abundant signing will be lessened because the bayfront's identity will be established and will help to attract business traffic. A more "low-key" sign program has been adopted for the final development phase. The Influence of Bayfront Topography The general topography of the bayfront is flat and open. The natural color of the area is muted. Therefore, signing must be discreet in order to avoid an overwhelming impact. A. Low-Key Sign Program These guidelines establish a sign program which is "low-key." Signs are intended to be adequate for identification, but not for advertising. Harmony of materials, textures, forms, colors, scale, and feeling is intended for the Chula Vista Bayfront Redevelopment Project. The Necessity for Size Regulation Uniform sign parameters are created to ease competition among private interests. This assures more equal distribution of the right to identify a place of activity. Height Limitation The ten-foot height limitation proposed in this criteria is in accordance with the intent of the California Coastal Commission's guidelines, and also maintains a sense of scale to bayfront topography and the intent of achieving a "low-key" sign program. Roof Signs Signs mounted on the roofs or mechanical penthouses of any building are prohibited. Such signs violate the intended bayfront scale and are not in keeping with a distinctive bayfront sign program. Ground Signs Encouraged Chapter 19.85 April 2012 City of Chula Vista 79 of 123 Bayfront Specific Plan //` -/, Low ground signs are encouraged. They should be integrated with the landscape, complementary to the architecture, incorporated into retaining walls or other landscape features. The objective is to reduce visual clutter. Wall Signs Wall signs must be compatible with and proportionate to the architecture, and maintain harmony of materials and form. The purpose of these signs is to identify the business or private development; whole wall areas are not intended to be "read" as sign structures or sign backgrounds. Only one wall sign shall be visible atone time. Support Structure Support structures should be integral parts of entire sign design and have aesthetic as well as structural importance. Lighting Lighting methods should be considered a part of each sign. The intensity and color of light should be harmonious with the building architecture and sign design. In any lighted sign, the intensity should be no more than that required for nighttime reading, flashing/strobe light shall not be used. Signs must be modified after installation if lighting proves too intense, Guideline Jurisdiction The guidelines specified herein shall govern signs within the Chula Vista Bayfront Redevelopment Project. Since every possibility cannot be anticipated by this report, details which might be omitted shall be governed by the Chula Vista Zoning Ordinance. Where there is a conflict between the Bayfront Redevelopment Sign Program and the Chula Vista Zoning Ordinance, the more restrictive regulation shall govern. Restrictions and Prohibited Signs The following signs shall be prohibited or restricted as noted: a. Pole signs, excluding pole signs for which the supports are integrally designed as an aesthetic component of the sign character. b. Flashing, oscillating, animated or moving signs, or signs with moving parts shall be prohibited. c. The use of fluorescent-type paints is prohibited. d. Signs advertising goods shall be prohibited. City of Chula Vista Chapter 19.85 April 2012 Bayfront Specific Plan 80 of 123 //-~/~ e. All billboard signs shall be prohibited, except as defined by bayfront promotional signs. f. Temporary signs, banners, sale notices, etc., shall be displayed behind the glass of the structure. The design review board shall establish requirements and procedures for submittals. New Signs The sign owner shall be responsible for the fulfillment of all requirements of these criteria. Conformance will be strictly enforced and nonconforming or unapproved signs or any part thereof shall be brought into conformance at the expense of the owner. Existing Signs Existing (nonconforming) signs shall be brought into conformance either: (1) when any change of land use occurs, or (2) by the final development phase, or whichever occurs first. Approvals for signs and their installation shall be obtained by the owner or his representative prior to installation. All signs shall be constructed, installed, and maintained in as-new condition at the owner's expense. All current building and electrical codes shall govern the construction of signs. GUIDELINES: SPECIFIC Public Signs Public signs are those built and maintained by the city or other public agency through an adopted financial plan. They are divided into subsections according to function and location. Freeway-Oriented Signs The signs are located in the freeway right-of-way or on private property. All signs in the freeway right-of-way must be approved by Caltrans. Chapter 19.85 April 2012 City of Chula Vista 81 of 123 Bayfront Specific Plan //-~/.3 a. Caltrans Signs: Caltrans signs, designed and maintained by the state, include all signs identifying exists and general directions. These signs will be designed by Caltrans per state regulations. b. Caltrans Signs with Bayfront Identity: The City of Chula Vista is considering a joint project with Caltrans to develop a bayfront identity sign to supplement the standard Caltrans signs which give generic service information (i.e., "FUEL, FOOD, LODGING," etc.). Costs will be borne by the city, and installation coordinated with Caltrans. (Refer to Exhibit Three for example.) c. Bayfront Promotional Signs: Bayfront promotional signs are designed to help establish the new bayfront community's identify. They will be located along Interstate 5, two minimum: one for each for north and southbound traffic; additional signs as necessary; five maximum quantity. Space will be rented, leased, or existing structures purchased outright. Promotional signs, and especially landscaped areas around them, will provide a unique, attractive logo design in atheme-setting frame and limited changeable copy which will be subject to design review board approval. (Refer to Exhibits Four a, b, c, and d for examples; and to Exhibit Five for proposed locations.) These signs, if appropriately used, will establish the redevelopment area's identity and functions for freeway travelers. Promotional signs are intended to be temporary, and it is anticipated that they will be retired when the Bayfront Redevelopment Project is substantially complete. Their utilization will be reviewed in 1985 and subject to the redevelopment agency's discretion. Internal Signs Signs within the bayfront, not oriented to the freeway. a. Street Name Signs: Street name signs shall have special mountings and frames to identify streets as being a part of the new bayfront community. The sign copy will be the bayfront letter style (Bookman Bold, upper and lower case) and colors. The support will be constructed of wood. (Refer to Exhibit Six for example.) b. Directional Signs: Directional signs at intersections will help establish gateways to the redevelopment area and may include such generic information as convention center, marina, special-use park, wildlife refuge, etc., as necessary. Directional information for private developments may be included also at the discretion of the design review board, but for the interim development phase only. Information will be clustered on one sign per intersection. Signs will have standardized mountings and trip. (Refer to Exhibit Seven for example.) A minimum of six directional signs will be necessary for adequate information. Each shall include specially designed landscaped areas to create a setting. c. Information Signs: Public information signs are designed for public facilities and services such as parks, marshes, marinas, trim, and colored to be unified with the basic public sign theme. (Refer to Exhibit Eight for example.) City of Chula Vista Chapter 19.85 April Bayfront Specific Plan 82 of 123 //- ~i4~ d. Traffic and Parking Control Signs: Traffic control and parking signs shall be designed with standard copy faces, and shall be trimmed with the wood frames and supports of the bayfront motif. Exact sizes and locations are required by state regulation. It is suggested that the minimal number of signs necessary for effectiveness be used. (Refer to Exhibit Eight for example.) To help establish the new bayfront identity, natural-signed (olympic semitransparent 901) cedar frames shall enclose all public signs. The bayfront logo and Bookman bold typestyle shall be used throughout. Specific reds, yellows, and browns are the principal logo colors (Frazee Z57-23, 3, 29). Private Signs Guidelines for private signs are organized according to location and project type. A somewhat more liberal criteria is established to serve business needs during the bayfront's initial development phase. The signs approved in this phase are called "interim signs." When the bayfront is substantially built out, interim signs must be replaced, modified, or removed entirely to comply with the more restrictive sign criteria established for the final development phase. The redevelopment agency shall determine when this changeover will occur based on their appraisal of the bayfront's progress. Developers submitting signs for approval for projects to be built close to the changeover date will be given the notice of complying with the final-phase criteria or building interim signs which would be removed or modified at their expense in the near future. The rationale for this phased system is that when the bayfront development is beginning and a bayfront identity is being established, certain private projects will need additional signs to attract business. When the area nears completion and a bayfront identity is clearly established, the bayfront itself will attract business traffic. At this time, more restrictive sign criteria can be implemented. FINAL PHASE: ULTIMATE BAYFRONT DEVELOPMENT STATE Freeway Signs: Private signs which are oriented to the freeway shall not be allowed, except as provided during the interim phase. Corner Lots: The identification allowance for sign development on corner lots may be divided to provide for a sign on each frontage; however, the total allowance for both signs combined is not to exceed 50 square feet. Chapter 19.85 April 20'12 City of Chula Vista 83 of 123 Bayfront Specific Plan ~~ ` T S Multitenant Buildings or Complexes: Office, retail-commercial, and industrial uses which are multitenant shall be allowed additional tenant identification signs: each tenant shall be allowed a maximum of three square feet on or adjacent to the entry door. These tenants signs shall be visible from on-site parking and/or pedestrian walkways, but not intended to be readable from public streets. Directional and Information Signs: These signs shall be allowed on a need basis. They shall be directional in nature and not intended as identification signs. Their maximum height shall be four feet with four square feet maximum copy area per side. Special Event Signs (Temporary): Special events such as grand openings shall be allowed temporary signs. Such signs shall have a limited life as determined by the design review board. Construction Signs (Temporary): Signs for owners, contractors and subcontractors, architects, etc. for new projects under construction shall be subject to design review board approval. Allowable Copy Area 1. Hotel/Motel, RV Parks, Restaurants, and Retail-Commercial: Total copy area for all identification signs combined shall be limited to not more than 50 square feet pr parcel. Signs may be wall signs andlor ground signs. Ground signs may be single- or double-faced but may not exceed 10 feet in height. An additional changeable copy area of 25 square feet maximum shall be allowed for uses which include entertainment or convention facilities. Changeable copy area shall be single-faced only. 2. Automotive Service: Service stations shall be allowed one identification sign per lot. Signs shall be ground signs or wall signs and shall have no more than 40 square feet of copy area, six feet maximum height. 3. Industrial and Office Uses: Industrial and office uses shall be allowed one identification sign per lot, visible from the internal street. Signs shall not exceed 40 square feet in area or six feet maximum in height. Total sign area may include a directory or tenant listing if the project is multitenant. INTERIM PHASE: BAYFRONT DEVELOPMENT STAGE 1. Commercial Uses Adjacent to Freeway: Commercial businesses will require some identification from the freeway during the bayfront development period. Such uses with freeway exposure shall be allowed either wall or low-profile monument signs with name and/or logo only during the bayfront development phase, and such signs shall have a specific date by which they must be removed. If the business logo is well-established as an identity mark, then use of logo alone is preferable. Each lot may have two wall signs or one ground sign only. One wall sign shall be visible at a time. Maximum total copy area shall be 100 square feet. Ground signs may be double-faced or parallel to the roadway and are intended to be low-profile monument signs. 2. Automotive Service: Service stations with freeway exposure shall be allowed freeway identification during the initial redevelopment of the bayfront. Sizes shall be as small as possible and still have freeway identity, in no case to exceed 50 square feet total sign area. City of Chula Vista Chapter 19.85 April 2012 Bayfront Specific Plan 84 of 123 ~~~ ~~ Such signs shall be subject to strict review and shall have a limited and specific retirement date at the discretion of the design review boards DEFINITIONS Background Area of Sign The background of the sign shall be considered the entire area in which copy can be placed. In computing the area of sign background, only the face or faces which can be seen from any one direction at one time shall be counted. Billboard A billboard is any sign usually designed for use with changing advertisement copy, which is normally used for the advertisement of goods or services rendered at locations other than the premises on which the sign is located. Changeable Copy Sign A changeable copy sign is one that is characterized by changeable copy regardless of method of attachment.

Nave any visible portion in motion, either constantly or at intervals, which motion may be caused by either artificial or nature sources; or d. Utilize whirligigs or any similar item which uses wind as its source of power. Freeway Signs orFreeway-Oriented Signs Freeway signs orfreeway-oriented signs are those signs that have copy directed for freeway visibility either in the freeway right-of-way or on a property adjacent to the freeway. Freestanding Sign A freestanding sign is one which is supported by one or more columns, uprights, or braces in or upon the ground. Ground Sign Aground sign is supported by the ground, by a continuous base (monument sign), or by poles or posts. Height of Sign The height of a size is the distance measured from finished grade to the highest projection of the sign. On sloping ground, finished grade is defined as the average elevation between the high and law points of adjacent grade. Identification Sign An identification sign is one that identifies a business name or principal service only. The sign should not serve as an advertisement device. miry or l:nula vista Chapter 19.85 April 2012 Bayfront Specific Plan 86 of 123 /1- ~~'~' Information Sign An information sign provides information for public and private facilities or services, and the use thereof.
