Commission of the City of Chula Vista has considered the amendment request and has recommended approval, and WHEREAS, the City Council has considered the Supplemental EIR- 89-10 for SPA III, read in conjunction with the previously prepared Final EIR-83-2. NOW THEREFORE, be it resolved that the City Council finds as follows: 1. That the transfer of densities to areas which carry different density designations results in improved spatial and functional relationships within SPA III by providing a more balanced mix of dwelling unit types and by providing a larger park facility for the recreational needs of future residents; and 2. That the density increase in the townhouse and specialty housing area is accompanied by a corresponding decrease in density in other areas of SPA III; and 3. The increase in density has been carefully placed in the townhouse area in order to insure compatibility with the existing adjacent condominium development to the east, and in the specialty housing area in order to isolate the density increase from the single family detached products in the center of the plan and to increase the viability of an independent neighborhood concept for the retirement community by increasing the total number of residents; and Resolution No. 15992 Page 2 4. The connection of East "J" Street with Buena Vista Way creates a potentially hazardous intersection due to topography and the existing curving alignment of Buena Vista Way; and 5. The inclusion of a 10.8 acre park within SPA III is necessary to mitigate the impacts to parks and recreational facilities expected by the proposed development; and 6. The conversion of the 2 acre park site on Paseo Ladera is consistent with City policy for providing community facility areas. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the E1 Rancho del Rey Specific Plan is amended in accordance with the proposed amendments to GPA-3-7 dated June 11, 1985, and revised September 6, 1985, and November 12, 1985, which is hereby incorporated by reference, with the following conditions: 1. There shall be no grading permit, building permit or other construction permit issued for any development within the Rancho del Rey SPA III Plan before the City and the developer enter into an agreement which will ensure that the Public Facilities Financing Plan, Phasing Plan, and other obligations of the developer are met and adhered to. 2. The Specialty Housing Area (parcel R-7 on the Site Utilization Plan) and the Townhouse Area (parcel R-6 on the Site Utilization Plan) are subject to Precise Plan approval prior to development.
