RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA
ADOPTION AMENDMENTS TO THE GENERAL PLAN
The City Council of the City of Chula Vista does hereby resolve as
follows:
WHEREAS, at its November 21, 1989 meeting, the Chula Vista City
Council considered the Chula Vista General Plan Task Force's proposed
amendments to certain land use, residential density, and residential
clustering policy provisions of the recently-adopted General Plan, and
WHEREAS, at the conclusion of the consideration of the proposed
amendments, the Council expressed concern over Section 4.1's definition of net
density within cluster projects; Section 4.1's area criteria for lots in
cluster projects in "Low Density Residential" neighborhoods; and, Section
6.2's authorization of density credits for territories designated "Open Space"
on the Plan Diagram of the General Plan, and
WHEREAS, Council referred the proposed amendments back to the Task
Force for its restudy of those provisions of Sections 4.1 and 6.2 and its
recommendations related to the said provisions, and
WHEREAS, the Task Force has completed its restudy of its proposed
amendments to the General Plan, prepared recommended changes to Section 4.1,
addressed the density-credit provision of Section 6.2 as embodied in the
attached Task Force report, dated January 11, 1990, and
WHEREAS, according to the Environmental Review Coordinator,
additional environmental assessment is not required by the proposed amendments
or their revisions as the said amendments are covered by EIR-88-2.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of
Chula Vista does adopt the following amendment to the General Plan in the
accordance with the General Plan Task Force's recommendations:
1. Add a new second paragraph to the second page of Section 4.1 of
the text of the General Plan. This paragraph reads:
In the computation of the net density of a cluster project,
governed by Section 6.3 of this text, the "area devoted to
residential use only" is not confined to the buildable lots and
condomlnium units. It also includes the landscaped usable common
green and common areas which are integrated into the project, and
made an essential part of its townscape.

2. Amend the first paragraph under the "Residential Low (0 to 3
Dwelling Units per Gross Acre)" heading of Section 4.1. This paragraph, upon
amendment, would read:
"This category includes single-family detached dwellings on large
rural, and estate-type lots. This is the predominant character of
existing residential neighborhoods within and adjacent to the
Sweetwater Valley. This is also the appropriate residential land
use for areas with variable terrain of relatively steep slopes, and
the areas adjacent to the proposed Greenbelt. In addition, under
the concept of cluster development, single family detached
dwellings on ~W~//S4/Z/e~ minimum 7,000 square-foot lots may be
permitted."
{/////Proposed deletions; Proposed Addenda)
3. Amend the first paragraph of Subdivision 3 of Section 6.2 to
technically conform it to the revision approved November 21, 1989, to read as
follows:
"It may be determined that the appropriate density for a project
should be above the midpoint of the range. In such instance, the
project shall contain features which provide exception and
extraordinary benefits to the residents of the City of Chula Vista,
as interpreted by the City Council
after review by the Planning Commission."
