SECTION 1. Conformance with General Plan.
Pursuant to Section 66473.5 of the Subdivision Map Act, the
tentative subdivision map for Salt Creek I Condominiums, Chula
Vista Tract PCS-91-01, is found to be in conformance with the
various elements of the City's General Plan based on the

1. The site is physically suitable for a ten lot, 141 unit
residential and one lot open space development, and the
proposal conforms to all standards established by the
City for such projects.

2. The design of the subdivision will not affect the
existing improvements -- streets, sewers, etc. -- which
have been designed to avoid any serious problems.
3. The project is in substantial conformance with the Chula
Vista General Plan Elements as follows:
a. Land Use - The project density of 15.16 dwelling
units per acre is consistent with the Medium High
Density range of 11-19.g du/ac.
b. Circulation - The project has a circular driveway
system along the outside boundary of the
residential lots with appropriately placed
driveways to parking areas. Also included at
strategic locations are hammerhead turnarounds
for larger vehicles, specifically fire-fighting
apparatuses.
c. Housing - This project is required to include low
and moderate income housing. An agreement
between the City Council and the applicant
executed on March 3, 1992 states that the project
shall include 13 low and 39 moderate income
housing units.
d. Conservation - Previous mitigation required that
other areas within Salt Creek I containing costal
sage scrub habitat be preserved both on and off-
site, and that an on-site area be provided for
the Otay Tarplant. There are, however, no areas
within this project targeted for preservation.
e. Park and Recreation, Open Space - This project
provides for one open space lot which is
conditioned to be granted in fee to the City, but
will be maintained by the Eastlake Maintenance
District No. 1. Park Acquisition and Development
fees will be required prior to Final Map
approval.

within the vicinity. The closest potentially
active fault is located approximately two miles
to the west of the site.

will be verified by the Chula Vista Police
Department prior to the issuance of building
permits. A one acre fire station site within the
vicinity of this project will be constructed as
part of the overall development of Salt Creek
Resolution No. 16593

the eastern boundary of the open space lot
separating the residential buildings from the SR-
125 corridor. This wall must meet minimum City
standards in noise attenuation.
i. Scenic Highway - This project does not abut any
scenic highway.
j. Bicycle Routes - Mt. Miguel Road is a designated
bike route and will be designed accordingly.
