General Plan and Zoning
The territory is zoned A-1-10 (Agricultural ) in the City of San Diego and is
designated for Agriculture (Otay River) and very low (0-5 DU' s/acre) to low
(5-10 DU's/acre) density residential with open space (canyons) on San Diego' s
Otay Mesa Community Plan.
The project area has not been prezoned by the City of Chula Vista or
designated on the General Plan except for the Otay River which has been
designated as open space. The area has been set aside as a special study area
as part of this city's Sphere of Influence Plan.
Annexation
Four of the property owners representing 28.2% (170.96 acres) of the proposal
area, have expressed interest in annexing to the City of Chula Vista while
others have indicated that they would not oppose the annexation. It should be
noted that before annexation can occur, the City of San Diego City Council
would first have to approve deannexation of the territory from its
jurisdictional boundaries.
FISCAL IMPACT: Short-term financial impact of the City-initiated
reorganization involves the payment of the LAFCO fee amounting to $2100.00 and
if the annexation is approved the State Board of Equalization fee of $480.00.
The total fee, if approved, would be $2580.00.
