ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA AMENDING THE ZONING MAPS ESTABLISHED BY MUNICIPAL CODE SECTION 19.18.010 BY REZONING (PCZ-12-O1) THE PARCEL LOCATED AT 35 TAMARINDO WAY FROM Rl-7P TO Rl-5P AND ADOPTING PRECISE PLAN STANDARDS (PCM-12-02) FOR THE PARCEL 10-1 Date, Item No.:JO Meeting Date:12/04/12 Page 2 of 7 SUBMITTED BY: ASSISTANT CITY MANAGIVELOPMENT SERVICES DIRECTOR REVIEWED BY: CITY MANAGE 4/STHS VOTE: YES NO X SUMMARY This is a request by the applicant, 35 Tamazindo LLC, for a Rezone, Precise Plan and Tentative Subdivision Map, as further described in this report, to develop 16 single-family homes on a 2.32-acre vacant site at 35 Tamazindo Way in southwestern Chula Vista (see Attachment 1, Locator Map). ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The Director of Development Services has reviewed the proposed Project for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act and has conducted an Initial Study, IS-12-O1 in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Based upon the results of the Initial Study, the Director of Development Services has determined that the Project could result in significant effects on the environment. However, revisions to the Project made by or agreed to by the Applicant would avoid the effects or mitigate the effects to a point where clearly no significant effects would occur; therefore, the Director of Development Services has prepared a Mitigated Negative Declaration IS-12-O1 (Attachment 7). RECOMMENDATION That the City Council conduct a public hearing and adopt the Mitigated Negative Declaration and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program IS-12-O1, and adopt the attached Resolution and Ordinance, based on the findings and subject to the conditions contained therein. BOARDS/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION On November 14, 2012, the Planning Commission held a noticed public hearing to consider the Project. After considering all reports, evidence and testimony, the Planning Commission voted 6- 0-0 to recommend approval of the Project subject to the conditions noted in the draft City Council Resolution and Ordinance. DISCUSSION Site Characteristics 10-2 Date, Item No.:~ Meeting Date:12/04/12 Page 3 of 7 The 2.32-acre project site is located at 35 Tamarindo Way, within the urbanized area of western Chula Vista, (Attachment 1- Locator Map). The site is on the southwest corner of the intersection of Hilltop Drive and Tamarindo Way, approximately 400 feet south of Orange Avenue. Primary vehicular access to the site is provided directly from Tamarindo Way. The project site was previously occupied by one single-family residential home, which was demolished in 2008. 1. General Plan, Zoning and Land Use The following table specifies the types of land uses surrounding the project site: GENERAL PLAN ZONING Site Residential Low-Medium R-1-7P North Residential Medium High R-3L South Residential Low-Medium R-1-7P East Residential Low-Medium R-1 West Residential Medium R-2T 2. Proposal CURRENT LAND USE Vacant Multi-Family Resid./Townhomes Single-Family Residential Single-Family Residential Multi-Family Resid./Duplexes The project proposes development of the 2.32 acre (gross), 2.2 acre (net developable) site with 16 single-family detached residential dwelling units. The site is designated Residential Low- Medium (3-6 dwelling units per acre) on the City of Chula Vista General Plan and is zoned R-1- 7P Single Family Residential with a Precise Plan Modifying District. The project proposes a rezone from R-1-7P to R-1-SP (minimum lot size of 5,000 sq. fr. with a Precise Plan Modifying District); a Precise Plan to modify the R-1-SP zoning standazds for the project; and a Tentative Subdivision Map proposing 16 residential lots ranging from 5,625 sq. ft. to 8,225 sq. ft. in size, served by Tamazindo Way, a public street. The minimum lot width would be 37.5 feet, and minimum lot depth would be 150 feet. The proposed homes would be two-stories and 2,295 squaze feet in size (Attachment 2-Precise Plan). Vehicle access to the site is provided via Tamarindo Way, an existing 60-foot wide public street. Tamarindo Way connects with Hilltop Drive, which is a four-lane Class I Collector Street, adjacent to the eastern boundary of the site. The applicant will be required to construct a new sidewalk, curb and gutter along the project frontage of Tamarindo Way, and to dedicate and widen Hilltop Drive by 2 feet along the project frontage. The site was graded previously and used for one single family home. The proposed grading will occur over the entirety of the 2.3 acre site. The Project's grading plan proposes 3,564 cubic yards of fill and 4,264 cubic yards of excavation, with 700 cubic yards to be exported. Minor cut slopes 2 feet high with a 2:1 (horizontal/vertical) gradient, and fill slopes of 8.8 foot high with 3:1 gradient aze proposed.. 10-3 Date, Item No.:~ Meeting Date:12/04/12 Page 4 of 7 The project proposes landscape plantings that have been selected to encourage water conservation and consistency with the City's Landscape Water Conservation Ordinance. The Hilltop Drive street frontage will be planted with groundcover and street trees, and maintained by the homeowner's association. The front yards include a mixture of groundcover, shrubs and trees, while the rear yards will include patios, drought-resistant lawn and groundcover plantings. Since the project proposes single-family residences, the landscaping in the front and rear yards will be installed and maintained by the homeowners. Private open space for the residents is provided by the proposed rear yards. Public Input After submittal of the applications, a notice of application was mailed to property owners within 500 feet of the project site. One letter was received in response. The applicant met with the individual who sent the letter and discussed the project. During the processing of the project, the applicant met with the community to discuss the project, including neighbors and community groups such as the Southwest Civic Association. As a result, staff has received letters from 23 persons, including the Southwest Civic Association, in support of the project. On September 28, 2012, a Notice of Availability was circulated establishing a 30-day public review period for the Draft Mitigated Negative Declazation (IS 12-01) prepared for the project. No letters of comment were received as a result of this notice. ANALYSIS Rezone: The Project proposes a rezoning from R-1-7P to R-1-SP (Attachment 1-Locator Map). Both the R-1-7P and R-1-SP zones are single family residential zones, however, the key difference is that the minimum lot azea of the R-1-5 is reduced from 7,000 to 5,000 sq ft., and certain development standards such as building setbacks (side and reaz yards) and floor azea ratio are also reduced to accommodate homes on the smaller lots. The R-1-5 zone is intended to be applied to azeas planned for single-family development that have unique features or circumstances. To the north of this site aze townhomes in the R-3L zone (apartment residential), and to the west are duplexes on narrow, individual lots iri the R2T zone (duplex/attached single family). The eastern half of the site lies adjacent to a larger azea currently zoned R-1-7 (single family/minimum lot size 7,000 square feet) that is developed with single family homes around cul-de-sacs. The R-1-7P area to the south of the site is separated from the site by a slight reduction in topography, and the R-1 area to the east is across Hilltop Drive. The unique circumstances of this properties' orientation towazds the duplexes and townhomes to the north and west provides the basis for re-zoning the site to the smaller 5,000 square foot lot size permitted by the R-1-SP. This would allow the site to be developed in a manner that is efficient and more typical of the existing multi-family type development along Tamarindo Way. The rezone from Rl-7P to Rl-SP would be in keeping with the Genera] Plan land use designation of Residential Low Medium (3-6 dwelling units per acre). The rezoning ordinance will also include 10-4 Date, Item No.: /l% Meeting Date:12/04/12 Page 5 of 7 additional modifications to the development standards required by the Precise Plan that are discussed further below. Precise Plan: A "P" (Precise Plan) modifier is currently applied to the site. As stated in CVMC 19.56.040, "The purpose of the P- Precise Plan modifying district is to allow diversification in the spatial relationship of land uses, density, buildings, structures, landscaping and open spaces, as well as design review of azchitecture and signs through the adoption of specific conditions of approval for development of property in the city. Within the boundaries of the P district, the location, height, size and setbacks of buildings or structures, open spaces, signs and densities indicated on the precise plan shall take precedence over the otherwise applicable regulations of the underlying zone''. The P modifying district may be applied to the site pursuanYto CVMC 19.56.041 (A) which states that: "The subject property, or the neighborhood or area in which the property is located, is unique by virtue of topography, geological characteristics, access, configuration, traffic circulation or some social or historic situation requiring special handling of the development on a precise plan basis, "and CVMC 19.56.041 (C), which states "The basic or underlying zone regulations do not allow the property owner and/or the city appropriate control or flexibility needed to achieve an efficient and proper relationship among the uses allowed in the adjacent zones". Staff recommends that these finding be made and information in support of these findings has been included in the attached City Council Ordinance. To approve the project as proposed, approval of the Precise Plan is required to amend the R-1-SP zoning development standards, and to develop the site in conformance with the conceptual azchitectural and landscaping plans. In order to develop the property with lot widths less than 50 feet, an amendment of the R-1-SP zone's minimum lot width standazd is required. Also, to provide compatibility between the Project's rear yazds and the rear yards of the existing single family residences to the south which is zoned R-1-7, staff recommends that the Project have a rear yard setback of 20 feet, which would be consistent with the R-1-7 zone, instead of the 15 feet as permitted by the R-1-5 zone. During early design review of the project, staff identified potential visual issues along the street from garage-dominated building elevations due to the development of narrow single-family lots. To minimize visual impacts, the Precise Plan proposes measures to address this concern, including staggering of front building setbacks, provision of architectural building entry elements at the walkway in front of the gazage, and adding vaziety to the architectural design of the front building elevations, to create shadow and architectural variety along the street (Attachment 3, Architectural Elevations). As shown on the Precise Plan and attached architectural and concept landscape plan (Attachment 4), the proposed lots are wide enough to allow the applicant to design functional single family homes, while creating a street scene that is compatible with the adjacent duplexes, while enhancing the appearance of the neighborhood with new, well-designed single-family housing. The standards described above have been incorporated into the Precise Plan and the property will be developed in 10-5 Date, Item No.: ~~ Meeting Date:12/04/12 Page 6 of 7 substantial conformance with the Precise Plan Map. Tentative Map: The project proposes 161ots at a density of 6.1 dwelling units per acre, which is consistent with the site's existing Residential Low Medium (3-6 dwelling units/acre) designation of the General Plan. The proposed lots for the project range from 5,625 sq. ft. to 8,225 sq. ft. in size, which complies with the 5,000 squaze foot minimum lot size of the R-1-SP zone. However, the 150-foot depth of the existing lot is too shallow to develop the property using any additional internal public or private roads, so the property has to be developed with direct frontage on Tamarindo Way. Due to the 150-foot depth of the existing lot, and the Applicant's desire to achieve the maximum lot yield permitted by the General Plan, the resulting lots would be long and narrow, approximately 37.5 feet wide by 150 feet deep (Attachment 5 -Tentative Map). Because of the depth of the lots, the proposed rear Yazd setbacks from the building to the reaz property line will range from 59.5 feet to 74.6 feet, which will create generous private open space in the rear yard for the future residents. The project proposes internal slopes within the usable reaz yazd with a 3:1 slope gradient. The 3:1 gradient is too steep for a useable rear yard. Therefore it is recommended that a Tentative Map condition of approval be included that the final grading plan show that the reaz yards be graded with internal slopes not to exceed 4:1 (25%) to ensure that the back yards are designed to be safe and usable for the residents, in terms of recreation, landscaping and maintenance. Based on the preceding information, staff finds that the project meets the General Plan, Zoning and Subdivision Manual requirements, and recommends that the Planning Commission adopt the attached Planning Commission Resolution recommending that the City Council approve the Mitigated Negative Declaration and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program, Rezone, Precise Plan and Tentative Map for the project, subject to the conditions listed in the attached Draft City Council Resolution and Draft Ordinance. DECISION-MAKER CONFLICTS 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. Staff is not independently aware, nor has staff been informed by any City Council member, of any other fact that may constitute a basis for adecision-maker conflict of interest in this matter. CURRENT YEAR FISCAL IMPACT There are no fiscal impacts during the current fiscal yeaz from the processing of the project including the Mitigated Negative Declaration, Rezone, Precise Plan and Tentative Map. All costs are covered by the deposit accounts. Costs associated with the processing of future implementing permits including the Grading Plan, Street Improvement Plan and Final Map will also be covered by deposit accounts. 10-6 Date, Item No.: ~~ Meeting Date:12/04/12 Page 7 of 7 ONGOING FISCAL IMPACT The Applicant will also be required to pay Sewer Connection and Capacity Fees, Traffic Signal Fees, Public Facilities Development Impact Fees (PFDIF), and Western Transportation Development Impact Fees (WTDIF) prior to issuance of building permits. Park Acquisition and Development (PAD) fees are also required to be paid prior to the issuance of the first building permit. Development of the site with 16 new homes will result in a minor increase in sales and property tax revenue for the City. The project should not create significant long-term fiscal impacts to the City because it is a small infill development located in a developed portion of the City where adequate public facilities exist or will be provided concurrent with development of the project site.

A. Protect Settinz The 2.32-acre project site is located at 35 Tamarindo Way, within the urbanized area of Western Chula Vista, (Exhibit 1- Locator Map). The site is on the southwest corner of the intersection of Hilltop Avenue and Tamarindo Way, approximately 400 feet south of Orange Avenue. Primary access to the site is currently provided directly off of Tamarindo Way. The project site has been used for one previous single-family residential home, which was demolished in _2008. The land uses immediately surrounding the project. site are as follows: North: Multi-Family Residential/Townhomes South: Single-Family Residential East: Single-Family Residential West: Multi-Family Residential/Duplexes B. Proiect Description The project proposes development of the 2.32 acre (gross), 2.2 acre (net developable) site with 16 single-family detached residential dwelling units, (Exhibit 2 -Precise Plan). The site is designated Residential Low-Medium (3-6 dwelling units per acre) on the City of Chula Vista General Plan and is zoned R-1-7P Single Family Residential. The project proposes a rezone from R-1-7P to R-1-SP (Min. lot size of 5,000 sq. fr. with a Precise Plan Modifying District); a Precise Plan to modify the R-1-SP zoning standards for the project; and a Tentative Subdivision Map proposing 16 residential lots ranging from 5,625 sq. ft. to 8,225 sq. ft. in size, served by Tamarindo Way, a public street. The minimum lot width would be 37.5 feet, and minimum lot depth would be 150 feet. The proposed homes would be 2-stories and 2,295 square feet in size. Proposed on-site improvements include drainage facilities including individual bio-retention facilities, sewer and water lateral lines, fire hydrants, retaining walls, fencing, improved paved areas such as walkway and driveways, private yards and landscaping. The project is identified as 10-14 developable area within the City of Chula Vista Multiple Species Conservation Program Subarea Plan, however, it is not located within the City's designated conservation area. C. Com~ance with Zoning and Plans The proposed project site is within the Genera] Plan RLM (Low-Medium Residential Density/3-6 dwelling units per acre) and R-1-7P (Single-Family Residential-Precise Plan) Zone. The project proposes a rezone from R-1-7P to R-1-SP (Min. lot size of 5,000 sq. ft. with a Precise Plan Modifying District). The proposed project has been found to be consistent with the applicable site development regulations and the Genera] Plan. D. Public Comments On August 23, 2012 a Notice of Initial Study was circulated to property owners within a 500-foot radius of the proposed project site. The public review period ended September 4, 2012. No comments were received in response to the Notice of Initial Study. On September 28 2012 a Notice of Availability of the Proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration for 'the project was posted in the County Clerk's Office and circulated to property owners wrthm a 500- foot radius of the project site as well as local regional state and federal agencies. The 30-day pubhc comment period closed on October 31 2012 No comments were received in response to the Notice of Availability E. Identification of Environmental Effects An Initial Study conducted by the City of Chula Vista (including an attached Environmental Checklist form, Exhibit 3) determined that the proposed project may have potential significant environmental impacts however; mitigation measures have been incorporated into the project to reduce these impacts to a less than significant level. This Mitigated Negative Declaration has been prepared in accordance with Section 15070 of the State of California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines. Air Quality Short-Term Demolition and Construction Activities The project proposes grading of the 2.32 acre site and construction of 16 single-family homes and related utilities and improvements serving the site. An Air Quality Impact Analysis for the Project, dated May 2012, was prepared by AECOM. The report determined that that grading and construction activities for future single-family residential development, and worker and equipment vehicle trips will create temporary emissions of dust, fumes, equipment exhaust including diesel engine particulate matter, and other air pollutants associated with the construction and demolition activities. The Project proposes grading within 25 feet of existing homes. However, air quality impacts resulting from grading and construction-related operations are considered short-term in duration. The Air Quality Technical Report concluded that emissions associated with construction and grading are below the significance thresholds established by the City for all construction phases and pollutants, based on South Coast Air Quality Management District standards. Even though not specifically required to mitigate any short-term construction air quality impacts for this project, in order to protect the public health and achieve better air quality for nearby residents, staff recommends that the best management practices (BMPs) for construction and grading required by the City's Genera] Plan be included on grading plans for all discretionary projects. The Air Quality Technical Report recommended implementation of "recommended" measures which are the same as the General Plan BMPs. Therefore, prior to approval of grading permits, these recommended mitigation measures will be placed as notes on all grading plans. The measures shall be implemented during grading to reduce 2 10-15 Multiple Species Conservation Program (MSCP)/Habitat Loss Incidental Take (HLIZ) Permit the project site is located within the City of Chula Vista Multiple Species Conservation Planning (MSCP) Subarea boundary under the City's MSCP Subazea Plan_ The site is located in an area designated as a "Mapped Development Area outside of Covered Projects", and is not located within a strategic preserve or conservation area the project is subject to the requirements of the Habitai Loss Incidental Iake (HLII) Ordinance. In accordance with the III,II Ordinance, those projects that are greater than one acre, contain sensitive biological resources, and are located outside the "Covered Projects" area, must demonstrate compliance with the Ordinance and obtain Iake authority from the City of Chula Vista for impacts to Covered Species. the following is a summary of the findings contained within the biological resource report as required by the City's HI,II Ordinance, Section 1735, Existing Conditions/Plant Species the 2.2 acre (net) project site consists entirely of I.1 acres of non-native grassland on the east and west sides of the site, 0, 9 acres of disturbed/omamental lands disturbed by the previous residential use in the central portion of the site, and 02 acres of Coastal Sage Scrub in the northwestern portion of the site. Coastal Sage Sctvb is designated a Iier II habitat in the MSCP, indicating a sensitive habitat Type. Non-native grassland is a Iier III habitat in the MSCP, indicating ales-sensitive habitat type.. Disturbed/ornamental ]ands are not considered sensitive habitat, and no mitigation is required for impacts to these types of ]ands.. A total of 49 different plant species were identified, of which only 7 were considered native. No wetland habitat, narrow endemic or special status plant species exist on the property.. the site is surrounded by existing residential development on al] sides, and public streets on two sides, and is not linked to any existing open space area or wildlife corridor. Wildlife/Sensitive Species/Sensitive .Habitats The biological letter report stated that wildlife species such as birds, crickets, moths and butterflies occupied the site. the only mammals detected were domestic and feral cats- No amphibian or reptile species were detected during the survey. Seventeen bird species, two butterfly/moth species and one cricket species were detected on the site, the bird and insect species observed were considered common species in urban areas, and not threatened or endangered.. Sixteen sensitive plant species and six sensitive wildlife species were reported within two miles of the project site, but no threatened or endangered species of plants or wildlife were observed on site. Due to the due to the low quality of habitat onsite, and the fact that it is surrounded by existing residential development, threatened or endangered species are not expected to occur on site. Cooper's hawk, which is a covered species under the City of Chula Vista's MSCP Subarea Plan and a State species of special concern, was not observed during the site survey, but have been observed within 2 miles of the site, Several existing large trees occurring on-site may provide suitable habitat for nesting birds and raptors Potential impacts of the project on these resources and sensitive species, and mitigation measures are further discussed in Project Impact section below.. Project Impacts the proposed project may result in impacts to sensitive biological resources and nesting migratory birds or raptors, and therefore, mitigation measures are required. the Project site supports 02 acres of Coastal Sage Scrub and 11 acres ofNon-Native Grassland habitats, of which 100% of the habitat is proposed for development, which is considered a duect impact. Therefore, the mitigation requirement pwsuant to the MSCP program is to secure mitigation credits within aCity-approved mitigation bank, or other approved location, consistent with the established ratios specified in the Mitigation 10-16 Measures stated below, to the satisfaction of the Director of Development Services Verification that mitigation credits have been obtained is required to be submitted by the Applicant prior to City approval of subsequent land development permits. If the mitigation credits are secured in an area outside of the City's Preserve, the mitigation ratio is heater and the Applicant must provide long term fending, and a maintenance and management program for the mitigation land (see Section F, Mitigation Measures). the Project site also supports several trees including Pine, Pepper, Oleander, Oak and Palm trees. The proposed removal of these trees during development could impact potential habitat for the Cooper's Hawk, which is known to nest in Palms and other tall trees, and other migratory bird species covered by the Migratory Bird Ireaty Act, such as the Northern Mockingbird, Anna's Hummingbud, Western Scrub Jay, and American Crow. If the removal of habitat, including trees or vegetation, occurs during the breeding season between January 15 and August 3I, apre-construction survey must be conducted by the applicant within 10 days of habitat removal to determine the presence or absence of nesting raptors. If the survey determines that nesting birds are present, the survey must include a mitigation plan to ensure that disturbance of the breeding activities of the nesting birds is avoided.. If removal of habitat or vegetation clearance occurs outside of the combined breeding season, between September I and January 14, the development of the site would not result in significant impacts to Cooper's Hawk or other migratory birds and no pre-construction survey is required.. The project will be required to obtain an HLII Permit pursuant to Section 17..35 of the Chula Vista Municipal Code. It is anticipated that the above-proposed mitigation would reduce the significant direct impacts to sensitive resources to less than significant under CEQA Proposed project design and application of seasonal restrictions and construction best management practices (BMPs) are also expected to avoid significant direct impacts to sensitive resources. Section 17.3.5.080 Required Findings for Issuance of an HLII Ordinance (Appendix D, 2011 BioZogicaZResources LetterReport forthe 3.5 Tamarindo YYayPioject) All the provision of the Habitat Loss and Incidental Iake (HLII) Ordinance for implementing the City of'Chula Vista's MSCP Subarea Plan have been met 1. General Submittal Requirements a An application form will be completed and submitted to the City Of' Chula Vista, b. A biological suvey for the entire project area has been completed by a Biologist. No potential habitat for Narrow Endemic Species was identified. Iherefore, focused surveys for Naztow Endemics species are not required. c. No indicators or potential habitat were identified for Narrow Endemic Species or Wetlands. Iherefore an Opportunities and Constraints Analysis in relationship to Sensitive Biological resources is not required. 2. No Narrow Endemic Species were identified by the biological survey. Iherefore, the additional submittal requirements o#'this provision aze not applicable. No Wetlands were identified by the biological survey, Iherefore, the additional submittal requirements of this provision are not applicable. 4 In order to approve or conditionally approve an HLII Permit, all of the following written findings are made by the decision-maker: 10-17 a the proposed development in the Project Area and associated mitigation is consistent with the Chula Vista MSCP Subarea Plan, as adopted on May 13, 2003, and as may be amended from time to time, the MSCP Implementation Guidelines, and the development standazds set forth in Section 17.35.100 of this Chapter, b. the Project Area is physically suitable for the design and siting of the proposed development and the development results in minimum disturbance to Sensitive Biological Resources, except impacts to Natural Vegetation in mapped Development Areas. c, the natut'e and extent of mitigation required as a condition of the permit is reasonably related to and calculated to alleviate negative impacts created in the Project Area, Mitigation will be provided for coastal sage scrub at a 1:1 ratio (0.2 acres), and for non-native grassland at a 0.5:1 ratio (0.55 acre}, for a total of 0..75 acres of habitat within an area designated by the City as Preserve, 5 No Narrow Endemic Species were identified by the biological survey in the Project Area. Iherefore, the additional written findings of this provision aze not applicable. 6 No Wetlands were identified by the biological survey in the Project area. Fherefore, the additional written findings of'this provision are not applicable. Implementation of the mitigation measures identified in Section F of this Mitigated Negative Declaration would reduce potentially significant biological impacts to a level below significance. Culhnal Resouces/Paleontology General Plan Section 3.1.10 "Protecting Chula Vista's Paleontological Resources" in summary, states that important paleontological resources should be protected and directs that assessment and mitigation of potential impacts to paleontological resources be conducted pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Figure S 6-I of the General Plan EIR (GPU-EIR) indicates that the site is in an azea characterized by the Linda Vista Formation soil type, which is considered an area of "High" Paleontological sensitivity.. the GPU-EIR also identifies grading thresholds for Paleontology.. Iherefore, a Paleontological Analysis was requested by the City and the Paleontological Locality Search letter report dated December S, 201 I was prepared by the San Diego Natural History Museum for the Project.. The letter identified the site as being unde[lain by the Linda Vista Formation soil type, and clarified that the Linda Vista formation is actually an area of "Moderate" Paleontological sensitivity. Natural History Museum records showed six recorded fossil t'ecovery sites within a one mile radius of the Project site, with one of the sites within the Linda Vista Formation, and five of the sites within the San Diego Formation.. the report concluded that any proposed excavation that runs deep enough to encounter previously undisturbed deposits of the San Diego Formation could cause impacts to paleontological resources, and a complete paleontological resource mitigation program during construction is recommended.. The GPU-EIR grading threshold that Diggers the need for mitigation in an area of "Moderate" paleontological sensitivity is any disturbance of quantities of earth greater than 2,000 cubic yards and greater than 5 ft.. deep, since paleontological resources are typically subterranean.. the proposed project gading of 3,564 cubic yards of fill and 4,264 cubic yards of excavation, and maximum depth of cut of 9 feet, would exceed this threshold Furthermore, the Geotechnica] Report prepared by Allied Earth Iechnology by for the Project, which included trenching tests, and the Geotechnical Reconnaissance was prepared by Michael W. Hart, 5 10-18 Engineering Geologist, both characterize the site as being underlain by the Baypoint Formation soil type. the GPU-EIR also identifies this formation as containing "Moderate" areas of paleontological sensitivity, and identifies the site as being in the "Coastal Ienaces Region" area, which has a limited assemblage of terreshia] mammals such as tapir, horse and rabbit Based on this information, paleontological monitoring during grading is required because the site is in an area that has moderate paleontological value. the project must provide a qualified paleontological monitor supervised by a qualified City-Paleontologist that will conduct (I) surface prospecting for resources and recovery prior to (and during) grubbing and equipment move-on, (2) provide on-going paleontological monitoring during grading operations, and (3} complete a paleontological resource mitigation program dining construction. Geology and Soils Io assess the potential geologicallsoils impacts of the project, a Geotechnical Investigation Report was prepared by Allied Earth Technology dated January 31, 3007, and updated on April 4, 2007. Ihis report updated the previous analysis of the site that was done by the same consultant in 2007 for a previous project proposed for this site.. Also, a Geotechnical Reconnaissance was prepaz~ed by Michael W Hart, Engineering Geologist on December ]4, 2011, the site was graded previously fbr the development of a single family home, which has since been demolished.. Proposed grading will occur over the entirety of the 22 acre (net) site. the Project's ;; ading plan proposes 3,564 cubic yards of fill and 4,264 cubic yards of excavation, with 700 cubic yards to be exported. Minor cut slopes of less than 2 ft. high with a 2:1 (horfzontal/vertica]) gradient, and fill slopes of 8.8 ft. high with 3:1 gradient are proposed.. According to the technical reports, the project site is not located in an active Earthquake Fault "Lone. the nearest active fault is the Rose Canyon Fault approximately 9 4 miles northwest of the Project site, and also the Elsinore-Julian Fault, located approximately 46.9 miles northeast of the site. In the event of a major earthquake along one of these faults, the most likely geologic hazard to affect the site area is moderate to severe ground shaking.. However, the site is considered comparable to others in the general vicinity- the site contains the Bay Pointe Formation, considered to be a moderate expansive soil type.. The site also contains undocumented fill soils and topsoil from the previous residential use, considered to be a highly expansive soil Type. the report recommends that these soils be removed and re-compacted during project grading, in accordance with the recommendations described in the reports, the potential impacts resulting fiom ground shaking, expansive soils and undocumented fill can be mitigated if the recommendations in the technical reports are incorporated into the design plans and properly implemented during the construction phase. The site is not located on a geologic unit or soil that is unstable, or that would become unstable as a result of the project.. Development of the site would not potentially result in an on or off=site landslide, lateral spreading, subsidence, liquefaction or collapse. Substantial soil erosion or the loss of topsoil would not be a significant concern.. No groundwater was encountered on the site and no groundwater related problems, either doting or after construction, are anticipated. Septic systems are not proposed by the Project. the project will require issuance of a grading permit to require excavation of expansive soils and undocumented fill, re-gading and re-compaction of the site, and review of project grading and foundation plans by the Project Geotechnical Engineer prior to submittal to regulatory agencies for approval, to minimize the potential for damage to future structures as a result of development on expansive soils and potential for ground-shaking during an earthquake.. No significant geological or soil impacts would be created as a result of the proposed project as conditioned. 10-19 potential for ground-shaking during an earthquake. No significant geological or soil impacts would be created as a result of the proposed project as conditioned. Implementation of the mitigation measures contained in Section F below would mitigate potential geological/soils impacts to a less than significance level. These measures are included as a part of the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program. Hazards and Hazardous Materials In order to assess potential hazards hazardous material impacts, a "Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessment" dated January 11, 2012, and a "Subsurface Assessment" dated January 10, 2012, were completed by SCS Engineers for the project. These reports updated the previous analysis of the site that was done by the same consultant in 2007 for a previous project proposed for this site. The study determined that with the exception of the potential for elevated concentrations of lead in the soil, there is a low likelihood that no other recognized environmental conditions could affect the project site. The consultant conducted two site visits in 2007 and did records research and determined that the site was formerly used as asingle-family residence with a workshop and garage, from approximately 1947 until their demolition in 2008. Based on the presence of the foundations of these former buildings situated adjacent to unpaved areas, there is a potential for elevated concentrations of lead in the soil from lead-based paint that leached from these structures into the soil, as the paint weathers and ages, over an extended period of time. Also, any scraping or sanding of the exterior of the structures may have deposited lead into the soil. The resulting lead concentrations may exceed published health risk guidelines and other environmental standards, and may constitute a recognized environmental condition. The consultant conducted soil-sampling activities adjacent to the perimeter of the former buildings, collecting 78 soil samples from 33 soil borings. The soil sampling assessed the presence, concentration, and lateral and vertical extent of potential lead in the soil adjacent to the former buildings. The soil samples were submitted to a State-Accredited laboratory and analyzed in accordance with Federal Environmental Protection Agency standards. A laboratory analysis was conducted and indicated elevated levels of total lead concentration above California Human Health Screening (CHHS) levels. The soil samples were taken from the east, south and west sides of the former residence, and the east and south sides of the former workshop. The consultant estimated that 30.5 cubic yards of contaminated soil would need to be excavated from the perimeter of these former structures. Disposal activities would require additional testing to characterize the soil as either a regulated or California hazardous waste, and profile the waste for transport and acceptance at an appropriate disposal facility. The consultant recommends that a Simple Excavation or Property Mitigation Plan be prepared documenting that upon the completion of the removal of contaminated soil, that confirmation sampling will be conducted to document that total lead concentrations at the base and sidewalls of the remaining excavations would be below CHHS levels. Finally, the consultant recommends that a completion report documenting appropriate remediation and consistency with the cleanup of remedial action goals be prepared upon completion. The proposed Simple Excavation or Property Mitigation Plan and Completion Report would be overseen by the regulatory agency, the Hazardous Materials Management Division of the County of San Diego Department of Environmental Health (Voluntary Assistance Program). No evidence ofadditional hazards or hazardous materials or undocumented fill was observed on the site. The proposed project site is Located within one-quarter mile of Loma Verde Elementary School at 1450 Loma Lane, and Otay Elementary School at 1651 Albany Street. Compliarice with the proposed Mitigation Measures would result in safe handling and disposal of the contaminated soil on the Project site, in compliance with local, state and federal laws, and therefore will not create a significant impact to these schools. 7 10-20 Implementation of~ the mitigation measures contained in Section F below would mitigate potential hazards/hazardous materials impacts to a less than significant level. Ihese measures aze included as a part of the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program. Noise In order to assess potential noise impacts of the proposed project, a Noise Impact Analysis by AECOM, dated April 9, 2012 was prepared. Construction Noise: the study anticipated that construction noise Levels ranging from 65 - ] 00 dBA could be generated at 50 feet from the noise source. Ihtrs, the adjacent residential population to the south and west may be exposed to excessive construction noise associated with short-term grading and conshuction activities, that could be disturbing and interfere with normal speech, especially for those nearest residents. Ihese impacts tend to be variable due to the variety of noise generation characteristics of the heavy equipment and vehic]es used, including the function and power of the heavy equipment or vehicle, and the timing of theiz operation, which ranges from periods where no heavy equipment or vehicles are operated, to simultaneous operations. Also, construction projects are short term in nature, so impacts will not be long-term, the project will be required to comply with the Section 17.24 040(C, 8) of the Chula Vista Municipal Code, which requires that noise generated by project-related grading, demolition or conshuction activities shall be prohibited between the hours of 10:00 p.m and 7:00 a m.. Monday through Friday and between 10:00 p..m.. and 8:00 a.m. Saturdays and Sundays.. F;owever, the City does not have quantitative standuds regulating conshuction noise. Because there are existing residences within 25-100 feet of the site, a mitigation measure requiring advance notification of the surrounding residents of the commencement of grading and construction activities of at least 2 weeks notice, but no more than 4 weeks prior to the start of construction is recommended by the consultant.. Also, a mitigation measure regazding compliance with Section 17.24.040(C.8) of the Chula Vista Municipal Code is recommended.. Thus impacts to sunrounding residential properties related to construction noise levels aze not expected to be significant. the study also found that the proposed residence on Lot 16 wilt be directly exposed to auto traffic from Hilltop Avenue, and is likely to be affected by exterior CNEL noise levels of approx. of 66 decibels under existing conditions.. With the forecasted traffic levels expected to increase in The future from the current haffic level of 5,100 ADI, to 6,000-8,000 ADI in 2020 and 8,000-10,000 ADI in~ 2030 (as projected by SANDAG Series I1), the potential for noise impacts should also increase, the repozt estimates that future traffic-related noise levels could increase to '70-71 decibels along the eastern boundary of the Project site along Hilltop Avenue. Thus, a 6-foot noise wall constructed on top of a 2-foot high slope is required to screen the exterior yard areas for the home on Lot 16, which would reduce the impact to 65 dBA, which complies with the City General Plan Noise thresholds for residential uses. the study concluded that the home on Lot 16 would screen the westerly homes from traffic noise, and the remaining homes would not exceed the 65 dBA Noise thresholds. 10-21 In addition, ground or rooftop mounted ITVAC equipment, fans and condensers have the potential to generate noise impacts to adjacent single-family residences in excess of the City's exterior noise levels for residential land uses. Thus a mitigation measure is included that requires submittal of a subsequent noise study, addressing ways to mitigate these potential noise impacts.. Examples could include screening of HVAC using other buildings, structures, or walls or use of low-noise equipment. The City's Noise Ordinance, and the California Administrztive Code, requires that interior noise levels in habitable rooms, from noise generated by exterior sources, shall not exceed 45 dBA CNEL. IrafEc-related noise levels ranging from 65 dBA to 70-71 dBA along the eastern boundary of the Project site along Hilltop Avenue are forecast Iypical residential construction, including walls, windows and mechanical ventilation, may lower the interior noise levels with windows closed, however verification that the interior noise levels will meet the interior noise standard of 45 dBA CNEL must be provided. Ihus, interior noise mitigation is also required for the home on Lot 16. the Applicant will be required to submit a noise letter report including data that shows that the construction will ensure that interior noise levels comply with the interior noise level standards. Installation of mechanical ventilation and; or air conditioning in the homes on lot 16, in accordance with the California Building Code is necessazy to ensure that windows_ can be closed to achieve compliance with the 45 dB CNEL interior standard. Implementation of'the mitigation measures contained in Section F below would mitigate potential noise impacts to a level of less than significance. Ihese measures are included as a put of the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (Attachment 4). F Mitination Necessary to Avoid Si~rrificant Impacts Air Ouality the following Air Quality mitigation requirements, based on the General Plan EIR and Project Air Quality Technical Report, shall be shown on all applicable grading, and building plans as details, notes, or as otherwise appropriate, and shall not be deviated from unless approved in advance in writing by the City's Development Services Director: a, Minimize simultaneous operation of multiple construction equipment units. b.

Comments a) In order to assess potential historic resources located on the project site or surrounding areas, an archaeologicallhistorical evaluation entitled "Revised Archeological Survey and Historic Resource Evaluation Report for 35 Tamazindo Way Housing Development" was prepared by AECOM, dated March 2012. The following details summarize the results of the study,. Zhe previously existing structures (demolished in 2008) were constructed in 1949 and were not associated with any important events or individuals in terms of local, state or national history. The existing structures and the site do not qualrfy as a historic resource under national, state or local register criteria The proposed project will not constitute a substantial, adverse change #o fhe significance of an historical resource as the structure has been determined by the analysis not to be histor ically of architecturally significant within the project impact area Therefore, no substantial adverse change is the significance of a historical resource as defined in Section 15064.5 is anticipated and no mitigation measw es are required. b) the site has been disturbed by development, and buried wltural deposits are more likely to occur in stream or riverbed areas to the south of the site. Based on the level of previous site disturbance, the likelihood that buried cultural deposits will be encountered is very low. Therefore, potential for significant impacts or adverse changes to archaeological resource as defined in Section 15064.5 is not anticipated. c) the mitigation measures contained in Section F of the Mitigated Negative Declazation would mitigate potentially significant paleontological resouroe impacts to a ]evel of less than significance.. d) Pursuant to the Archeological Survey and Historic Resource Evaluation Report, no human remains az'e anticipated to be present within the project site as the site has been previously graded and used for residential uses, structures and utilities.. Mitigation: the mitigation measures contained in Section F of the Mitigated Negative Declaration would mitigate potentially sib ifieant biological resource impacts to a level of less Than significance.

IV. TENTATIVE SUBDIVISION MAP FINDINGS A. Pursuant to Government Code Section 66473.5 of the Subdivision Map Act, the City Council finds that the Tentative Subdivision Map, as conditioned herein for the 35 Tamarindo Way Project, is in conformance with the elements of the City's General Plan, based on the following: 1. Land Use and Circulation The General Plan land use designation is Low Medium Residential (3-6 dwelling units per acre). The proposed 16-lot subdivision will be developed at a density of 6 dwelling units per acre, which is within the allowable density and permitted number of dwelling units. Project-related traffic generation has been analyzed and will not adversely affect the road segments and intersections in the surrounding area, such as Hilltop Drive and Orange Avenue. The Project has direct frontage on Tamarindo Way and Hilltop Drive, which are both public streets. These streets, as well as the other off-site public streets required to serve this subdivision already exist. Tamarindo Way and Hilltop Drive will be improved by the Applicant in accordance with the conditions of approval, to provide public street and landscape improvements in compliance with City design standards and requirements. Projects proposed for the western Chula Vista azea are also required to pay the Western Transportation Development Impact fee prior to building permit issuance, to pay their share of costs associated with future road construction and maintenance in the area. 2. Economic Develonment The Project will provide new, high-quality, energy-efficient single-family homes that will enhance the image and appearance of the neighborhood, and create jobs related to construction of the homes that will benefit the local economy. Approval of the Project will help achieve of the General Plan objectives that seek to promote a variety of job and housing opportunities to improve the City's jobs/housing balance, provide a diverse economic base, and encourage the growth of small businesses. 3. Public Facilities and Services The Project site is located in the attendance area of the Otay Elementary School, within the boundaries of the Chula Vista Elementary School District. The Project is also within the attendance area of Castle Park Junior High School and Castle Park High School, within the Sweetwater Union High School District. Both school districts 10-67 Resolution No. 2012- Page 4 responded that they would be able to accommodate the additional students generated by the Project, and that the schools would not be adversely impacted by the approval of the Project. The project site is within the boundaries of the City of Chula Vista wastewater services area. The existing sewer facility system includes 8-inch sewer lines along 35 Tamarindo Way. New sewer lateral aze proposed to service the individual lots. No adverse impacts to the City's sewer system or City's sewer threshold standards will occur as a result of the proposed project. The Project has been conditioned to ensure that all necessary public facilities and services will be available to serve the Project concurrent with the demand for those services. The City Engineer, Fire and Police Departments have reviewed the proposed subdivision for conformance with City safety policies and have determined that the proposal meets those standards. The proposed project would not induce significant population growth, as it is a small residential infill project and would not impact existing or proposed park and recreational facilities: The Project has been conditioned to pay park acquisition and development fees prior to issuance of building permits. Project construction will be required to comply with the 2010 California Green Building Standards, the City's Green Building Standards and the City's Energy Efficiency Ordinance, and therefore energy-efficient homes will be developed. 4. Housin The Project is consistent with the density prescribed within the Residential Low- Medium General Plan designation, and will provide additional opportunities for high- quality, market-rate single-family residential home ownership in the southwestern portion of the City. 5. Growth Management The Project is in compliance with applicable Growth Management Element requirements because it is an infill project that will be served by existing public infrastructure. There are no public service, facility, or phasing needs that warrant the preparation of a Public Facilities Financing Plan. 6. Environmental The project proposes individual single-family homes that meet the minimum open space requirement per the Chula Vista Municipal Code. The Development Services Director has prepared a Mitigated Negative Declaration and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program, IS-12-O1, in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act, and finds that the development of the site to be consistent with the goals and policies of the Conservation Element. The Project has been reviewed for compliance with the Noise Element, a noise study has been prepared by the applicant, which has determined that the project as conditioned will comply with applicable noise measures at the time of issuance of the building permit. The Project has been conditioned to require that all dwelling units be designed to preclude interior noise levels over 45 dBA and exterior noise exposure over 65 dBA for all outside private yard areas. 10-68 Resolution No. 2012- Page 5 A Geotechnical report has been prepazed for the Project, which has determined that the site is not within or near a mapped earthquake fault zone, and there are no known or suspected seismic hazards associated with the Project site. Conditions of approval have been included which require that a detailed soils report and geo-technical study be prepazed prior to approval of grading plans, and that foundation plans be reviewed in conjunction with building permits. Therefore, project compliance with applicable Uniform Building Code standards would adequately address any building safety/seismic concerns. B. Pursuant to Government Code Section 66473.1 of the Subdivision Map Act, the configuration, orientation, and topography of the site allows for the optimum siting of lots for natural and passive heating and cooling opportunities and that the development of the site will be subject to site plan and architectural review to ensure the maximum utilization of natural and passive heating and cooling opportunities. C. Pursuant to Government Code Section 66412.3 of the Subdivision Map Act, the Council certifies that it has considered the effect of this approval on the housing needs of the region and has balanced those needs against the public service needs of the residents of the City and the available fiscal and environmental resources. D. The site is physically suited for residential development because it is graded, level, and vacant, was previously developed with one single-family residence, and is surrounded by existing public streets and residential development. As conditioned, the Project conforms to all standards established by the City for a residential development. V.

RECITALS A. Project Site WHEREAS, the area of land, which is the subject of this ordinance is diagrammatically represented in Exhibit "A" which is incorporated into the ordinance by-this reference, and for the purpose of general description consists of a 2.32-acre parcel located at 35 Tamarindo Way ("Project Site or Site"); and B. Project; Application for Discretionary Approval WHEREAS, on January 26, 2012, Rezone and Precise Plan applications were filed by Mr. J.P. Mariscal on behalf of 35 Tamarindo, LLC ("Property Owner/Applicant") with the Development Services Department of the City of Chula Vista requesting an amendment to the adopted zoning map or maps established by Section 19.18.010 of the Chula Vista Municipal Code in order to rezone the Project Site from the Rl-7P to Rl-SP zone and adopting the Precise Plan, as shown in Exhibit B and incorporated herein by reference, and development standards for the Project Site ("Project"), as shown in Exhibit C, incorporated herein by reference; and C. Planning Commission Record on Application WHEREAS, the Planning Commission held an advertised public hearing on the Project on November 14, 2012 at 6:00 p.m. in the City Council Chambers at 276 Fourth Avenue and, after hearing staff presentation and public testimony, voted 6-0-0-0 to recommend that the City Council approve the rezone and Precise Plan Standards based on the findings listed below; and WHEREAS, the proceedings and all evidence introduced before the Planning Commission at the public hearing on the Project held on November 14, 2012, and the minutes and resolution resulting there from, are incorporated into the record of these proceedings; and D. City Council Record on Application WHEREAS, the City Clerk set the time and place for the hearing on the Project applications and notices of the hearing, together with its purposes given by its publication in a newspaper of general circulation in the City and its mailing to property owners within 500 ft. of the exterior boundaries of the Project Site at least ten (10) days prior to the hearing; and WHEREAS, the City Council held an advertised public hearing on the Project on December 4, 2012, at 2:00 p.m. in the City Council Chambers at 276 Fourth Avenue; and 10-80 Ordinance Page 2 II. NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Chula Vista does hereby ordain as follows: A. The rezone of the Project Site provided for herein is consistent with the City of Chula Vista General Plan, public necessity and convenience, and the general welfare and good zoning practice support the amendment to the Chula Vista Municipal Code. B. The City of Chula Vista Zoning Map established by Section 19.18.010 of the Chula Vista Municipal Code is amended to rezone the Project Site as depicted in Exhibit "A" from the Rl-7P Zone to the Rl-SP Zone, based on findings below, including Property Development Standards as represented in Exhibit C. C. Precise Plan Findings That such use will not under the circumstances of the particular case be detrimental to the health, safety or general welfaze of persons residing or working in the vicinity or injurious to property or improvements in the vicinity. The City Council finds that the proposed precise plan standards contained in attached Exhibit C will not have a negative impact on the surrounding neighborhood because the proposed standards allow the applicant to design a Project that is more compatible with the single and multi-family residential character of the area. The surrounding area includes single-family homes on the south and east, duplexes on the southwest, and multi-family dwellings on the north. The proposed development standards will allow the flexibility in establishing new development standards for minimum lot width, building front setbacks and landscaping regulations that will permit construction of detached single-family dwelling units with garages and private open space. 2. That such plan satisfies the following principles for amendment of the "P" modifying district as set forth in CVMC 19.56.041: The Precise Plan Modifying District has already been established for the project site with the R-1-7P zone, by Ordinance 2378 adopted July 10, 1990, The "P" modifying district was included as apart of a City-initiated comprehensive rezone of lands annexed from the County in 1986. The purpose of this re-zoning was to implement the Montgomery Specific Plan (now expired), eliminate County classifications so that the City could administer zoning based on City-wide classifications, and to allow the types of duplex and single family developments that were already in existence in various neighborhoods at that time. The Precise Plan Modifier was placed on numerous remnant undeveloped parcels within established neighborhoods, to allow for flexibility in the design through the discretionary review of projects prior to building permits, if necessary. As described in the Municipal Code, The purpose of the "P" modifying district, is to allow diversification in the spatial relationship of land uses, density, buildings, structures, landscaping and open spaces, as well as design review of architecture and signs through the adoption of specific conditions of 10-81 Ordinance Page 3 approval for development of property in the City. Within the boundaries of the "P" modifying district, the location, height, size, and setbacks of buildings or structures, open spaces, signs and densities on the precise plan shall take precedence over the otherwise applicable regulations of the underlying zone. Pursuant to CVMC 19.56.041, the "P" modifying district may be applied to azeas within the City when one or more circumstances are evident, including: a). The subject property, or the neighborhood or area in which the property located, is unique by virtue of topography, geological characteristics, access, configuration, traffic circulation, or some social or historic situation requiring special handling of the development on a precise plan basis: The City Council finds that amendment of the existing "P" modifying district and adoption of the Precise Plan Map and development standards in Exhibit C are appropriate because: The site is unique by virtue of a social situation requiring special handling of the development on a precise plan basis, because of its location at the edge of afully-developed residential area that transitions from single- family to multi-family residential land uses. The site is located at the northerly edge of a traditional single-family area, and at the eastern edge of the Holiday Estates neighborhood, which contains 209 single-Family attached/duplex homes, and 32 townhomes. This transition results in an aesthetic change in the neighborhood, from traditional single-family detached homes on lots typically 60-70 feet in width within the R-1-7P zone, to gazage -dominated narrow single-family attached /duplex homes on lots with widths as low as 28 feet within the R-2T zone. The rezone and "P"-modifier amendment will allow the Project to be developed with narrower single-family homes on 37.5 foot wide lots, which are more aesthetically compatible with the single-family attached /duplex homes with narrow lot widths. The "P" is intended to reduce the potential affects on the neighborhood from the aesthetic incongruity that would result if traditional single-family homes with 50 to 70 foot wide lots were constructed immediately adjacent to attached duplexes with 28-foot lots and attached townhomes. The project will be developed to comply with the Precise Plan, which includes architectural review and landscaping review to ensure the homes will be attractively designed. Through the use of three different floor plans and staggered front yard setbacks, the Project design will be varied to add visual interest along the street. The neighborhood or area in which the property located, is unique by virtue of its configuration, because the site is a portion of a larger area currently zoned R-1-7P, containing 21 other single-family homes on Holiday and Festival Courts, located on the west side of Hilltop Avenue. However, the project site is a remnant parcel that is not a part of the existing Holiday Estates Unit 4 subdivision to the south, but rather 10-82 Ordinance Page 4 extends northerly into the multi-family azea described above. The rectangular parcel is oriented to Tamarindo Way with approximately 600 feet of frontage along Tamazindo Way and approximately 150 feet along Hilltop Avenue. The topography of the parcel is relatively flat along the east side along Tamazindo Way, but has a 10-20 foot elevation difference along the western property line, and along southern property line between Hilltop Drive and Connoley Circle. The site's orientation, configuration and topography is such that access and frontage is from Tamazindo Way rather than Hilltop Drive. Re-zoning the site to the R-1-SP zone would permit smaller 5,000 square foot lot sizes with 37.5 foot widths that will be designed and developed in a manner that is more typical of the adjacent single-family attached/duplex residences to the west along Tamarindo Way. The subject property is unique by virtue of the existing depth of the lot, which at 150 is deeper than traditional single-family lots in the R-1-5 zone, which aze typically in the range of 100 feet deep. This lot depth, when combined with the proposed 37.5 foot lot width, results in lots sizes between 5,625 and 8,225 square feet, which exceed the minimum 5,000 square foot area of the R-1-5 zone, and provides a transition to the 7,000 square foot lots in the R-I-7P area to the south. This design also provides lots with lazge, useable rear yazds for the residents. c). The basic or underlying zone regulations do not allow the property owner and/or the city appropriate control or flexibility needed to achieve an efficient and proper relationship among the uses allowed in the adjacent zones: The City Council finds that amendment of the "P" modifying district to add development standards and approve a Precise Plan is appropriate because the existing R-1-7 and proposed R-1-5 zone regulations do not allow development standards needed to achieve a project design that is compatible with the adjacent multi-family housing to the north, west and southwest, and adjacent single-family homes to the south, and therefore a precise plan modifying district is needed to allow a more compatible design. Development of the site under the standard R-1-5 zoning would require 50-foot wide single-family detached lots along Tamazindo Way, a street where single-family detached homes do not presently exist. The proposed precise plan standazds of the R-1-SP zoning would allow lot widths with a minimum of 37.5 feet, and also permit 15-foot rear yazd setbacks on the south side of the site adjacent to existing homes developed under the R-1-7 zone, which permits a 20 ft. rear yazd setback. The Precise Plan standazds will allow the Project to be designed 20 ft. rear yard setback to make a more appropriate transition between the project and adjacent single-family development on the south. 10-83 Ordinance Page 5 3. That any exceptions granted which may deviate from the underlying zoning requirements shall be warranted only when necessary to meet the purpose and application of the "P" Precise Plan modifying district; With the exception of the reduced lot width, staggered front yard setback, and increased rear yard setback of 20 Feet discussed above, the development standards are the same as the R-1-5 zone. The City Council finds that these requested deviations under the Precise Plan are warranted in order to achieve the purpose of the Precise Plan Modifying District. 4. That the approval of this plan will conform to the General Plan and the adopted policies of the City of Chula V ista. The Project has been designed and evaluated in accordance with the goals and objectives of the General Plan and Residential Low-Medium (3-6 du's/acre) land use designation. Based on this land use designation, a maximum of 16 units could be developed on the 2.32 acre (gross) site, The project proposes a density consistent with the Residential Low-Medium land use designation. The Precise Plan, as described above, will allow the Project to be consistent with the goals and objectives of the General Plan, and the Chula Vista Municipal Code. D. The Precise Plan Map and Precise Standards as depicted in Exhibits B and C are adopted and are supported by the required findings (CVMC Section 19.14.576, as outlined in Section II (C) above. III. EFFECTIVE DATE. This ordinance shall take effect and be in full force on the thirtieth day from and after its adoption.
