RECOMMENDATION: That Council concur with Planning Commission recommendation. BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: On August 22, 1984, the Planning Commission by a vote of 5 to 1 with one absent recommended that Council approve the rezoning in accordance with Resolution PCZ-84-I. DISCUSSION: Existing site characteristics. The project site is comprised of two vacant 10-acre landlocked parcels located directly east of Greg Rogers Park and approximately 400 feet east of Brandywine Avenue and 1300 feet south of East Naples Street. A portion of the SDG&E easement cuts diagonally across the northwesterly corner of the site. The two parcels, with an average natural slope of 13.4%, consists of three small canyons on the south side with relatively broad ridges in between. The elevations range from 275 feet to nearly 350 feet. Previous rezonings. The subject properties were prezoned R-1 and annexed to the City in 1970. In 1974 as part of an overall program to apply the Hillside Modifying District to those properties east of I-805 which possess an average natural slope of at least 8%, the two parcels were rezoned to R-1-H. Based on the average natural Page 2, Item ht"' Meeting Date. ///p- slope of 13.4% a maximum of 67 units would be permitted under the present zoning and 27.5% (5.5 acres) would be left ungraded. A previously approved tentative map (PCS-77-5, Chula Vista Woods) had proposed 54 single family lots with 6.15 acres left ungraded. The map was allowed to expire after attempts to gain access to the landlocked property were unsuccessful. The proposed tentative map is designed for 110 lots. ANALYSIS: The Hillside regulations were adopted in order to limit development in hillside areas by maintaining the basic integrity of the landform and reducing grading. The "H" district can be applied to any terrain; however, it has not been applied to generally level areas. While the subject property is far from level , its 13.4% average grade is considered a moderate slope. Another factor to consider in determining whether the "H" district should be applied to the subject property is one of location. In this instance the site is the upper end of a canyon to the south and being part of the high ground in the area, it is reasonable to permit grading and development. Because of these reasons, the the removal of the "H" district from the property is appropriate. The applicant wishes to develop affordable housing on the site in the form of manufactured housing which would be in the price range of between $70,000 and $80,000 per unit. In order to achieve this price range, the developer is requesting a density of 6 dwelling units per gross acre which would allow up to 120 units. The actual proposed number of units is 110 or 5.5 units per acre. The increase in density is supportable in order to provide affordable housing, but the actual density of 5.5 units per acre should be reflected rather than being rounded off to the nearest whole number. Besides establishing the proposed density, the Precise Plan Modifying District must be applied to the project site in order to reduce the minimum lot size, lot width and setbacks necessary for the proposed development at that density.

PCZ-84-I RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDING THAT CITY COUNCIL REZONE 20 ACRES LOCATED EAST OF GREG ROGERS PARK FROM R-1-H TO R-1-P-5.5 WHEREAS, a duly verified application for a rezoning was filed with the Planning Department of the City of Chula Vista on June 13, 1984, by Stafford-Gardner Development, and WHEREAS, said application requested rezoning of 20 acres located immediately east of Greg Rogers Park, 1 ,300 feet south of East Naples Street and 400 feet west of Medical Center Drive (formerly Brandywine Avenue) from R-1-H to R-1-P-6, and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission set the time and place for a hearing on said rezoning application and notice of said hearing, together with its purpose, was given by its publication in a newspaper of general circulation in the city and its mailing to property owners within 300 feet of the exterior boundaries of the property at least ten days prior to the hearing, and WHEREAS, the hearing was held at the time and place as advertised, namely 7:00 p.m. , August 22, 1984, in the Council Chambers, 276 Fourth Avenue, before the Planning Commission, and said hearing was thereafter closed. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED THAT from the facts presented to the Planning Commission, the Commission has determined that the rezoning is consistent with the City of Chula Vista General Plan and that public necessity, convenience, general welfare and good zoning practice support the rezoning from R-1-H to R-1-P-5.5, and the findings in support of applying the "P" Modifying District are as follows: The basic or underlying zone regulations do not allow the property owner and/or the City appropriate control or flexibility needed to achieve an efficient and proper relationship among the uses allowed in the adjacent zones. The attachment of the "P" district is necessary to achieve a density of 5.5 dwelling units per gross acres and to establish development standards for the purpose of providing affordable housing within the community.
