For meeting of 8/8/78
Page Two ,
The. property owner of the 278 acres located within the 450 acres in
the City of Chula Vista is prepared to move forward with such a
program forthwith . By his action he will, in effect, be merging
the specific plan as adopted by the Council into a general develop-
ment plan and schedule in accordance with the terms of the comprehensive
P-C zoning ordinance, which is also being offered to the Council for
consideration and adoption at this time .
The Gersten Companies , which has been unwilling to agree to the specific
plan, now has the option to proceed with standard zoning or to commit
to the specific plan and also merge it into a general development plan
and schedule.
In addition to the basic ordinance adopting the specific plan, an ordi-
nance has been prepared amending the comprehensive zoning ordinance
providing in greater detail for the use of a specific plan, and a second
ordinance amending the P-C zone to include the specific plan as a
means of providing substance and detail to the P-C zone . Both of these
ordinances are adopted as interim measures which must be adopted by
a 4/Sths vote and will be in no further force and effect ninety days
from the adoption thereof. This means that if Council does act upon
these ordinances, that the Planning Commission and Council should
hold public hearings following normal zoning procedure requirements
to insure their adoption on or before December 15 , 1978 . Both the
City Attorney ' s Office and the Planning Department agree that such �
a time schedule can be met and that the ordinances can be further
refined as needed to provide viable procedural tools to support the
development of the E1 Rancho del Rey Area, in accordance with the
specific plan adopted by Council at this time .
Council should also note that the ordinance amending the existing
P-C zone not only amends the P-C zone for those areas within the
corporate limits of the City of Chula Vista but, for the first time,
recognizes that a substantial portion of the E1 Rancho del Rey area
is not being zoned but is being pre-zoned since it is in the unin-
corporated area of San Diego County . This particular element, which
has never been significantly verbalized heretofore, represents one
additional reason, after the adoption of procedural changes , for
rejection of concern over threats of litigation from the property owner .
The ordinance will also provide for the possibility of waiving
residential construction taxes , park land dedication and in-lieu
fee requirements , to insure a most equitable administration of
the implementation of the P-C zone .
