RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CHULA
VISTA APPROVING AN AGREEMENT WITH THE COUNTY OF
SAN DIEGO FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF A BRIDGE ON
CENTRAL AVENUE AND DEDICATION OF RIGHT OF WAY FROM
GOLF COURSE PROPERTY, APPROPRIATING FUNDS, AND
APPROVING THE NEGATIVE DECLARATION
WHEREAS, Central Avenue in Bonita between Sweetwater Road and Bonita Road
experiences flooding quite frequently and during high rain years, there have been periods of
time that the road was closed to traffic for 60 days or more due to the Sweetwater Dam
overflowing; and
WHEREAS, this flooding problem also makes the Chula Vista Municipal Golf Course
unplayable for the back nine holes during the same periods of time; and
WHEREAS, the County of San Diego is planning to build a bridge in this location that
will allow the flows from the dam and most storms to flow under the bridge, thus allowing
traffic continuous use of the road (except for very short periods of time when the river is
flowing at very high flows); and
WHEREAS, if the bridge were made 10' wider than necessary for the road and jogging
path, there would be adequate space across the bridge for a golf cart path; and
WHEREAS, the County has prepared a Negative Declaration for the bridge improvement
project, and related improvements, in accordance with CEQA and the Guidelines promulgated
thereunder.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED the City Council of the City of Chula Vista does
hereby:
1. Find and determine that the above recitals are true and correct.

County of San Diego.
