Subject Item k8 ConsideraHon of amendments to the city's general plan and the Otay ranch
general development plan, including a new development agreement involving portions of the
Otay ranch freeway commercial planning azea 12.
Dear Mayor and City Council Members,
I would be here in person today to discuss this item directly with you, but my father-in-law is in
the hospital having some surgery done and I need to be with my wife during this time.
I have multiple concems with this proposed change,but the foremost is the loss of what is the
only azea left in Chula Vista to be a destination shopping area that many other cities seem to be
able to accomplish for their city's'. The city really needs such a place, both financially and for
services for its residents, especially the ever growing eastem residence. I have attached some
supporting documents that aze either d'uectly or derived from the planning packets submitted
for the project for you to consider.
Chula Vista should have place to shop like other dries. The incomes in the azea show it can
support this type of shopping area. Do not give up on this potential,because it will be lost
forever. If it cannot be done on this site, it will never be done anywhere in the city.
Sincerely,
��G i�� �

"Very Concemed Citizen"
PS I would propose that staff prepaze a SWOT analysis on all changes so that both sides of an
item get equal consideration in their presentaHon. This will reduce the perception that City
Statf are beholden to the developers or that they already concluded how it should be decided
and there is little choice.
SWOT Analysis of Otay Town Center Project
Strengths Weakness
• Proposal is ready now. • This is last shopping area in the city to
• Includes 2 acre park with maintenance be a destination shopping center such
not the responsibility of City, as Plaza Bonita, Parkway Plaza, Horton
• Includes two new hotels. Plaza, Mission Valley, Fashion Valley, ,
North County Fair, Carlsbad Factory
Stores, and San Ysidro Factory Stores.
• Assumes hotels can only be developed
if residential is allowed in the adjacent
properties.
• There will no trouble long-term in
funding maintenance. What are the
guarantees the funding mechanism will
stand test of time.
• Potential issues with parking in the
shopping center for non-shoppers
• Under service automotive retail in the
area which was one of elements within
the General Plan.
• Market analysis did not include
automotive, a clear category in the
General Plan for this property.
Opportunities Threats
• 52.5 net revenue to the City annually. • $3.SM net revenue to the City annually
• Reduction in traffic. would lost.
• $395M of leakage (Demand exceed
Supply) of retail dollars not captured or
serviced within the 4 mile radius of the
project. (note$93k annual median
income in the same area as compared
to$61k for the City of Chula Vista and
the County which support this analysis)
• Ridership of MTS would be lessened
without a destination shopping area.
Could hamper financial feasibility of the
route.
• The Millennium Projed not as attractive
of spot not being close to a destination
shopping area.
• Otay Town Center reduced to only a
local shopping center
