Resolution No. 2014-208
Pa�=e No. 4
The current General Plan land use designation for Neighborhoods R-]�b, R-20, R-216
and R-23 is Residential LoN� Medium: for Nei=hborhoods R-4b(a), R-Sb, R-8c, and R-9b is
Residential Medium: for Neighborhoods R-17b(a), R-17b(b), and R-19b is Residential Medium
High; for Neighborhoods R-4b(b); R-24 and R-2�a is Residential High; and For Neighborhoods
R-10a; R-lOb; R-I1, R-12a; R-12b; R-16b, R-27, R-31, MU-1, MU-2, MU-3 and C-1 is Mixed
Use Residential. The proposed project is consistent with these land use designation as all
densities fall within the prescribed GP ranges for each of these categories.
The current Otay Ranch GDP land use designation for Neighborhoods R-156, R-20, R-
21b and R-23 is Low Medium Village Density Residential (LMV); for Neighborhoods R-46(a),
R-�b, R-8c; R-9b; R-17b(a) and R-19b is Medium Densiry Residential (M); for Neighborhoods
R-4b(b), R-10a, R-]Ob, R-11, R-12a, R-12b, R-16b, R-17b(b), R-24, R-2�a, R-27 and R-.il is
High Densiry Residential (H); and for Neighborhoods MU-1, MU-2, MU-3 and Gl is Mixed
Use (MU). The proposed project is consistent with these land use designation as all densities fall
within the prescribed GDP ranges for each of these categories.
The existing implementing zone in the Village 2 Planned Community District
Regulations is Single Famil}� 3 (SF3) for Neighborhoods R-20 and R-21b; Single Family 4 (SF4)
for Neighborhoods R-8c, R-I Sb and R-23; Residential Multi Family 1 (RM 1) for Neighborhoods
R-4b(a), R-�b, R-9b, R-]7b(a) and R-196; Residential Multi Family 2 (RM2) for Neighborhoods
R-4b(b), R-10a, R-106; R-1 ], R-12a; R-12b, R-16b, R-176(b), R-24, R-25a, R-27 and R-31; and
Mixed Use (MU) for MU-1, MU-2; MU-3 and C-1. All neighborhoods aze consistent with these
desienations.
The proposed unit increase would not result in any significant land use; planning, or
zoning impacts. Though the addition of 1,562 units would increase the densit}� of the village,
such an increase furthers the GDP policy objective for "Urban Villages" to have "higher
densilies und mixed uses n� lhe i�i(luge cores" and to `p�•ovide a i��ide range qjresrden�iul
housing opporiuni�ies...i�hrcla promoles u blend of mu/ti-fumily und single-famr/y housing stJ�(es
a�zd derzsities, inlegraled a�ad compulrble i��ith olher lund uses in t17e ui�eu." Of the 1,562 total
new units, 1,132 (72%) are located within the village core. The proposed unit increase would
also support Smart GroNrth Principles, as it provides compact development oriented to
pedestrians, bicyclists and transit, and would further minimize urban sprawl development
patterns. The proposed changes would also provide more land use diversiri�, increase pedestrian
orientation and make commercia] uses in Vil]age 2 more viable.
All off-site public streets required to serve the subdi��ision already esist or will be
constructed or funded by the Applicant in accordance with the Supplemental PFFP and
Conditions of Approval. The on-site public streets are designed in accordance ���ith the City
design standards and/or requirements and pro��ides for vehiculaz and pedestrian connections.
