CHULA VISTA CITY COWCIL �IEETING OF: March 27, 1973
ITE�ITITLE: Ordinance - Imposing a Moratorium on the Issuance of all
Building Permits and Rezonings on Certain Properties Lo-
cated in the Incorporated Area of the City of Chula
Vista known as the Castle Park Area - First reading and adoption
INITIATED BY:
City Attorney
BACKGROUND
The attached ordinance declaring a moratorium on building permits
and rezoninqs in the Castle Park area has been prepared at Council
direction.
Council should note that the moratorium is for a period of 90 days ,
which is consistent with the provisions of our procedural ordinance
for the establishment of interim zoning ordinances.
At the end of the 90 day period if the General Plan amendments have
not been adopted, Council may, after a public hearing, extend the
moratorium for a period of 1- year.
I noted that the biayor in his letter to the Chairman of the Board of �
Supervisors, Jack Walsh, has requested a '2 year period for a mora-
torium to study the zoning pattern in the area and the ability of
public facilities available in the area to sustain an increased
density. I feel that we must be extremely careful with the mora-
torium concept and would prefer that we treat the moratorium as an
interim zoning device subject to the procedures that we have carried
out for such interim ordinances in the past.
Therefore, I would recommend that we adopt the first ordinance for a
period of 90 days and if necessary, Council may extend it thereafter.
