REVIEWED BY: City Manager / (4/5ths Vote: Yes No )
The City of Chula Vista, on behalf of certain property owners, adopted a
resolution (#12408) to initiate the annexation of approximately 45.75 acres of
territory located southeasterly of the terminus of Mace Street, and extending
in a southeasterly direction to the north facing slopes of the Otay Valley.
The subject territory is within the City of San Diego and within the City of
Chula Vista's Sphere-of-Influence. The total acreage in the proposed Mid-Otay
is 61 .64 acres. One parcel consisting of 15.89 acres was prezoned A-8 as part
of the Fenton/Lake prezoning.
The proposed reorganization, called the "Mid-Otay Reorganization," involves
the deannexation of the said acreage to Chula Vista. The proposed prezoning
would enable these processes to move forward.
The proposed "A-8" prezoning is this municipality' s agricultural zone which is
closest to the City of San Diego's "A-1-10" zone. The minimum building site
under "A-8" is 8 acres. The minimum building site under San Diego' s A-1-10 is
10 acres.

Meeting Dated 1- g-86
recommending that the City Council enact an ordinance to prezone within the
Otay Valley and within the City of San Diego to A-8 (Agriculture) and F-1
(Floodway) zones as shown on Exhibit "A".
DISCUSSION:
1 . Subject Property
The project area, which lies within the Otay Valley, consists of two
vacant parcels which have a total area of 45.75 acres. The area is
traversed by the Otay River and is characterized by steep slopes along the
southerly boundary.
2. General Plan
The Otay-Mesa Nestor Community Plan of the City of San Diego designates
that portion of the project area, which lies north of the Otay River, as
"Low-Density Residential - 5-10 DU's acre. " The Otay River and the area
south are designated "Parks and Public Open Space."
The Chula Vista General Plan designates the area north of the Otay River
as "Research and Limited Industrial" and the Otay River' s riparian margins
are designated "Parks and Public Open Space" as shown on Exhibit "B". As
the property is presently included in the Chula Vista General Plan, no
further general planning action is required in conjunction with this
reorganization.
3. Existing Zoning and Land Uses
The City of San Diego has zoned the Otay River FW (Floodway) and both
sides of the River as A-1-10 (Agriculture). The adjacent zoning and land
uses are as follows:
North M-54 Vacant, Single-Family Detached, Industrial (City of
Chula Vista/Montgomery)
South R-1-5 Single-Family Detached (City of San Diego)
East RV15 Single-Family Detached,
A70 Duplex, Vacant (City of Chula Vista/Montgomery)
West A70 Vacant, Industrial (City of Chula Vista/Montgomery)
CONCLUSION
The proposed prezoning has been tailored to the City of San Diego' s Otay Mesa
Community Plan, and its holding zone for the project area, "A-1-10." A
resolve as to whether the property is to be industrial or residential would
occur with the initiation of a specific plan or as part of the City' s General

Plan Update which is now beginning. The prezoning affords flexibility in that
regard. The proposed prezoning would enable the City of Chula Vista to plan
the involved territory in an orderly expeditious manner.
FISCAL IMPACT: The actual extent of revenues or expenditures is not known
at this time.
