THE SPA PLAN, AS AMENDED, IS IN CONFORMITY WITH THE OTAY RANCH GENERAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN AND THE CHULA VISTA GENERAL PLAN AND ITS SEVERAL ELEMENTS. The City Council finds that the proposed amendment to the Village 3 SPA Plan is in conformance with the GP and GDP. General Plan General Dev Plan SPA Plan Residential Medium Medium Density Residential Single Family 4 (SF -4) — permits densities < 11 units/acre; Residential Multi -Family One (RM -1) — permits densities of 11-18 units/acre including small lot SF, alley homes, duplexes, townhouses, rowhouses, courtyard/clusters, and stacked flats Resolution No. 2016-254 Page No. 3 Residential Medium Medium High Density Residential Multi -Family High Residential Two (RM -2) — permits densities >18 units/acre Mixed Use Mixed Use Mixed Use/Residential Residential (MU -1) — neighborhood commercial with residential above Professional & Office Office Office (0) — office and Commercial flexible use buildings Industrial Research & Limited Industrial (1) — industrial, Industrial light manufacturing, warehousing, flexible use buildings, public utilities, limited restaurant/retail/office oriented use Open Space Open Space Open Space 1 (OS -1) permits developed or usable open space and park uses, may include naturalized open space; Open Space 2 (OS -2) permits natural, undisturbed and/or restored open space which is part of the Otay Ranch Preserve Parks & Recreation Parks & Recreation Parks (P) permits allowable open space and park uses including community parks, neighborhood parks, pedestrian parks, town squares and private parks Public & Quasi Public & Quasi Public Community Purpose Public Facility (CPF) The proposed zones in the Village 3 Planned Community District Regulations comply with the GP and GDP land use designations. The Project is consistent with and implements the CVGP and GDP by establishing developable parcels, public improvements and public facilities that will create a mixed-use urban pedestrian village with a village core that contains complementary land uses, including community purpose facilities, a public school and parks, and residential neighborhoods that offer a variety of housing types and densities. The Mixed -Use Village Core is comprised of integrated commercial, residential and office uses, encouraging residents to utilize alternative modes of transportation such as pedestrian sidewalks and trails, and bicycle lanes. Resolution No. 2016-254 Page No. 4 B. THE SPA PLAN, SEQUENTIALIZED PLANNING AREAS. AS AMENDED, WILL PROMOTE THE ORDERLY DEVELOPMENT OF THE INVOLVED SECTIONAL The Village 3 SPA Plan, as amended, will maintain existing provisions and requirements to ensure the orderly, phased development of the Project prior to or concurrent with the need for said public facilities. C. THE OTAY RANCH VILLAGE 3 SPA PLAN, AS AMENDED, WILL NOT ADVERSELY AFFECT ADJACENT LAND USES, RESIDENTIAL ENJOYMENT, CIRCULATION OR ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY. The proposed modifications to land use and development standard provisions within the Project Site have been fully analyzed and will not adversely affect the circulation system and overall land uses as previously envisioned in the Otay Ranch GDP and Otay Ranch Village 3 SPA Plan. The existing infrastructure (sewer, water, public services and facilities) has been determined to be adequate to serve the proposed Project, as described in the Supplemental Public Facilities Financing Plan (PFFP). Additionally, an amended Tentative Map (TM) Drainage Study (Hunsaker - February 2016), Otay Ranch Village 3 Trip Generation Review (Chen -Ryan — July 2016), Village 3 Amendment Water Evaluation (Dexter Wilson — June 2016), Village 3 Amendment Sewer Evaluation (Dexter Wilson — June 2016), and Village 3 Fiscal Impact Analysis Update (DPFG — August 2016) have been prepared, reviewed and approved by the City. These technical analyses supplement the technical reports associated with the original Project approvals and 2014 PFFP and demonstrate that none of the proposed changes to the Project result in changes to Mitigation Measures, Conditions of Approval or Thresholds established in the 2014 PFFP. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, based on the findings above, the City Council hereby approves the Village 3 SPA Plan as amended, on file in the Office of the City Clerk, and incorporated into this Resolution subject to the conditions set forth below: III.
