RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA
AMENDING TO THE CIRCULATION ELEMENT OF THE GENERAL PLAN
TO ELIMINATE THE CONNECTION OF EAST "J" STREET AND BUENA
VISTA WAY AND TO RECLASSIFY EAST "J" STREET EAST OF PASEO
RANCHERO A CLASS III COLLECTOR
WHEREAS, the Rancho del Rey Partnership has applied for approval of the
Rancho del Rey Sectional Planning Area {SPA) III Plan; and,
WHEREAS, the approval of the SPA Plan includes the realignment of East
"j" Street so that it no longer connects with Buena Vista Way; and,
WHEREAS, a Specific Plan Amendment is required to accomplish this
re-alignment; and,
WHEREAS, the City has reviewed the traffic studies submitted with SPA
Plan request that detail the impacts associated with an East "J" Street and
Buena Vista Way connection.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council finds as follows:
1. Based upon the traffic analysis in the Supplemental EIR 89-10
prepared for the Rancho del Rey Sectional Planning Area III Plan,
the elimination of the East "J" Street and Buena Vista Way
intersection and associated redesignation of East "J" Street east
of Paseo Ranchero to a Class III Collector will not have a
significant impact on the environment; and,
2. The connection of East "O" Street with Buena Vista Way creates a
potentially hazardous intersection due to topography and the
existing curving alignment of Buena Vista Way; and,
3. The re-alignment of East "J" Street within the Rancho del Rey
Sectional Planning Area {SPA) III Plan will adequately serve the
existing and future residential development in the area; and,
4. The traffic expected to use the east "j" Street and Buena Vista Way
connection will be adequately funneled through other routes onto
Paseo Ranchero and Telegraph Canyon Road; and,
5. Redesignating East "J" Street east of Paseo Ranchero from a Class
II Collector as shown on the current Circulation Element of the
General Plan to a Class III Collector will not detract from
creating a safe and efficient circulation system for the movement
of people and goods both locally and regionally.
