"Eastlake I Reorganization" involving annexation of 1 ,268 acres of uninhabited
territory to the City of Chula Vista and concurrent detachment from the San
Diego County Flood Control District - Zones 3 and 4.
DISCUSSION:
Existing and Proposed Land Use
The subject property is generally located north and east of Otay Lakes Road,
south of East "H" Street (extended), and is contiguous with the City's
boundary at the existing "College Estates Subdivision" and the recently
approved "Bonita Long Canyon Estates Project" .
The subject 1 ,268 acres is currently vacant land which was previously utilized
for dry-farmed barley production. The territory is traversed by Otay Lakes
Road (improved to two lanes) , Janal Ranch Road and Proctor Valley Road
(unimproved).
The proponent of the EastLake I project proposes to develop the lands in
question as a planned community development, consisting of a maximum of 3,683
dwelling units housing approximately 9,500 people, a 145-acre employment park,

34 acres of commercial/office development, 290 acres of permanent open space,
and 166 acres for public facilities such as schools and road improvements. It
is anticipated that development will commence in 1985 and will be phased over
a five-year period.
Environmental Review
The Environmental Impact Report (EIR-8l-3) for the original EastLake Planned
Community Development (consisting of 3,073 acres of territory) was prepared in
accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) , the State
CEQA Guidelines, and the Environmental Review Procedures of the City of Chula
Vista.
Subsequent to the applicant's submittal of a plan which reduced the scope of
the original Eastlake project from 3,073 acres to 1 ,268 acres (EastLake I,
subject of the instant reorganization proposal) the Environmental Review
Committee conducted a public hearing to determine the necessity for a
supplemental EIR on the EastLake I project. Following said hearing, the
Environmental Review Committee adopted Resolution No. ERC-83-1 , finding that
no subsequent or supplemental EIR need: be prepared.
On August 24, 1982, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 10995 certifying
the Final Master EIR-81-3 -- EastLake Planned Community Development -- as
complete and adequate in that it addressed all environmental effects of the
proposed EastLake General Plan Amendment approving the EastLake Policy Plan,
as well as the EastLake I prezoning to a Planned Community designation.
General Plan/Prezoning
The EastLake I territory is currently within the County's Otay Subregional
Planning Area with a land use designation of intensive agriculture and very
low density residential (1 du/2, 4, 8 acre) . The County has applied the S-87
(limited control ) zone to the subject property.
On August 24, 1982, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 10996 and thereby
amended the Land Use Element of the Chula Vista General Plan for the proposed
EastLake Planned Community Development project. The subject General Plan
Amendment designated 1,268 acres of land "EastLake I" (area proposed for
annexation to the City) , and approximately 1 ,800 acres "Future Urban," for a
total 3,073 acres.
In conjunction with the subject amendment, Council adopted the EastLake Policy
Plan which governs the development of the "Future Urban" sector of the
EastLake project, and establishes the Planned Community District Regulations
for the EastLake I reorganization area.
At its meeting of September 7, 1982, Council adopted Ordinance No. 2002
prezoning the territory designated as "EastLake I" to P-C (Planned Community
Zone) in conformance with the General Plan.
