VII. CONSISTENCY WITH THE GENERAL PLAN
The proposed Project is consistent with the General Plan for the following reasons:
A. THE PROPOSED GENERAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN AMENDMENTS ARE IN
CONFORMITY WITH THE CHULA VISTA GENERAL PLAN.
The Otay Ranch Sectional Planning Area (SPA) Plan Amendments reflect the
land uses, circulation system, open space and recreational uses, and public
facility uses consistent with the Otay Ranch General Development Plan and
Chula Vista General Plan.
B. THE PROPOSED SECTIONAL PLANNING AREA PLAN AMENDMENTS WILL
PROMOTE THE ORDERLY SEQUENTIALIZED DEVELOPMENT OF THE
INVOLVED SECTIONAL PLANNING AREA.
The SPA One Plan Amendments contain provisions and requirements to ensure
the orderly, phased development of the project.
C. THE PROPOSED SECTIONAL PLANNING AREA PLAN AMENDMENTS WILL
NOT ADVERSELY AFFECT ADJACENT LAND USE, RESIDENTIAL ENJOYMENT,
CIRCULATION OR ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY.
The land uses within Otay Ranch are designed with an open space buffer
adjacent to other existing projects, and future developments off-site and within
the Otay Ranch Planning Area One. A neighborhood park will be located within
the Village One West area to serve the project residents, and the project will
provide housing types compatible with Sunbow Master Planned Community, as
required by the General Development Plan. A comprehensive street network
serves the project and provides for access to off-site adjacent properties. The
proposed plan closely follows all existing environmental protection guidelines
and will avoid unacceptable off-site impacts through the provision of mitigation
measures specified in the Otay Ranch Environmental Impact Report.
