PLANNING COMMISSION AGENDA STATEMENT
Item: 1
Meeting Date: OS/21/97
ITEM TITLE:
Public Hearing: SUPS-97-03 - Request to construct, maintain and
operate a mortuary at 753 Broadway in the CT (Commercial
Thoroughfare) Zoning District - The Loewen Group for Humphrey
Mortuary
Resolution SUP5-97-03 - Recommending that the Redevelopment
Agency of the City of Chula Vista Adopt the Negative Declaration
Issued on IS-97-10 and Grant a Special Use Permit for a Mortuary
to be Located at 753 Broadway
BACKGROUND: The Applicant is requesting permission to construct, maintain and
operate a mortuary at 753 Broadway. The proposed facility will replace the existing
Humphrey Mortuary currently located at 855 Broadway. The new facility will consist
of a 17,000 sq.ft. two story building on a 0.89 acre parcel. At present, the site is
being used by a vehicle leasing company and is occupied by a small office structure
(see Exhibit 1).
RECOMMENDATION: That the Planning Commission adopt the Negative
Declaration issued on Initial 5tudy 15-97-10 (Exhibit 2) and approve attached
Resolution No. SUPS-97-03 (Attachment 1) recommending that the Redevelopment
Agency approve the application to construct, maintain and operate a mortuary at 753
Broadway pursuant to the attached Draft Redevelopment Agency Resolution No. _
(Attachment 2).
BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION:
1 . The Resource Conservation Commission considered this project on January 20,
1997 and voted 6 to 0 to accept the negative declaration issued on 15-97-10.
The minutes are attached as Attachment 3.
2. The Design Review Committee considered the Project design on May 5, 1997
and approved the design with modifications by a vote of 3 to 0 (1 absent, 1
abstention), and directed that the Applicant return to the May 19. 1997
meeting for final approval. The minutes for the May 5, 1997 meeting are not
yet prepared. A verbal report will be given to the Planning Commission as to
the action the DRC took at the May 19, 1997 meeting.

Meeting Date: OS/21/97
DISCUSSION:
1. Site Characteristics:
At present, structures on the 39,100 sq. ft. site consist of a small office
structure and paving for parking for a vehicle rental business which occupies
the site. This use will be terminated by the property owner when subject
project moves into a construction phase.

The Land Use Matrix lists mortuaries as an Unclassified Use requiring approval
by the City Council/Redevelopment Agency, and which can be located in any
zoning district under the correct circumstances. In this case. the proposed land
use will replace an existing mortuary currently located at 855 Broadway, albeit
the new facility will be larger.
The vacant property immediately across Broadway is the future site of the
Broadway Business Homes. To the northwest and southwest across Broadway
are existing commercial developments.
3. ProDosal:
The proposal is to construct an approximately 17.000 sq.ft. building at 753
Broadway. The first floor of the building will contain two chapels and several
parlors where services and open casket viewing will take place. In addition,
corpse preparation and storage facilities are located on the first floor. The
second floor will contain offices, a casket selection room, a cremation urn
display room and an employee kitchen/lounge.
Page# 3, Item: 1
Meeting Date: OS/21/97
The site will contain 43 parking stalls, which meets the requirement of the
Zoning Ordinance of one space per four seats for a mortuary. Because only
one service will be held at a time, the maximum number of people who can be
seated in the largest chapel is 172 (43 X 4 = 172). The Operational
Statement (Exhibit 3) is attached.
4. Public Forum:
A public forum was held for this project on April 10, 1997 in the cafeteria at
Chula Vista High School. A notice was sent to all residents, property owners
and businesses within a 500 foot radius of the Project site. One person
attended who was representing a neighboring property owner and who was
already familiar with the Project.
Staff also received phone calls from area residents. One person who could not
attend the forum indicated a concern over the views from the second floor of
the proposed building toward the east. This elevation is to be enhanced per
direction from the Design Review Committee. The building itself meets height
and setback requirements.
5. Analvsis
Because of Humphrey Mortuary's longstanding and well established operations
at 855 Broadway, it is not anticipated that their relocation to 753 Broadway
will pose any unforeseen problems. In addition, the proposed land use is
consistent with the existing and proposed surrounding commercial land uses
and is physically separated from the adjacent residential area.
Since the Project location is within the Southwest Redevelopment Area it falls
under the provisions of that area's Plan and, therefore, should implement its
goals. The goals this Project specifically implements are as follows:
"Section IV. (400) Redevelopment Plan Goals
· Encouragement of the establishment and maintenance of
"balanced neighborhoods" and subareas, characterized by a
planned diversity in building sites, density, housing and land use.
· Elimination and prevention of the spread of blight and deterioration
and to conserve, rehabilitate, and redevelop the [Southwest]
Page# 4. Item: 1
Meeting Date: OS/21/97
Project Area in accordance with the Redevelopment Plan and
future Annual Work Programs.
· Provision for the enhancement and renovation of businesses
within the [Southwest] Project Area to promote their economic
viability.
· Stimulation of investment of the private sector in the full
development of the [Southwest] Project Area.
· Provision of needed improvements to the community's
educational, cultural, residential and other community facilities to
better serve the [Southwest] Project Area
. Removal of impediments to land assembly and development
through acquisition and reparcelization of land into reasonably
sized and shaped parcels served by an improved street system and
improved public facilities.
. Expansion of the resource of developable land by making
underutilized land available for development.
. Achievement of an environment reflecting a high level of concern
for architectural, landscape, and urban design principles
appropriate to the objectives of the Redevelopment Plan."
It should be noted that the approval of SUPS-97-03 is for three years rather
than the one year period normally granted pursuant to ~ 19.14.260 of the
Zoning Ordinance. This section requires that a use permit be utilized within one
year of the effective date thereof. However, because of substantial
expenditures and the necessity to implement the Southwest Redevelopment
Plan, this Project is being approved for a period of three years to allow the
Applicant the time to finalize purchase of the property implement the plan. In
addition, a three year approval avoids the necessity of the Applicant returning
to the Planning Commission in one year for an extension when it is known
before hand that it may take longer than one year to implement the project
because of Redevelopment Agency involvement in selling the property.
Page# 5. Item: 1
Meeting Date: 05/21/97
6. Conclusion
Based on the foregoing, staff is recommending that the Planning Commission
adopt Resolution No. SUPS-97-03 recommending approval of the application
for a mortuary pursuant to the attached draft Redevelopment Agency
Resolution and subject to the findings and conditions contained therein.

Resolution No.
Page #4
regulations for the issuance of special use permits, as hereinbelow set forth, and sets forth
the evidentiary basis for approval of the proposed Project:
1. That the proposed use at the location is necessary or desirable to provide a
service or facility which will contribute to the general well being of the
neighborhood or the community.
The mortuary proposed to be constructed at 753 Broadway will continue to provide
a needed and desirable service for the residents of the City of Chula Vista as it
currently does at its present location at 855 Broadway. The proposed mortuary
represents a land use consistent with the commercial community at the new
location.
2. That such use will not under the circumstances of the particular case, be
detrimental to the health, safety or general welfare of persons residing or
working in the vicinity or injurious to property or improvements in the
vicinity.
The mortuary presents a neat, well ordered appearance and will be separated from
nearby residents by appropriately designed walls and landscaping. In addition, the
project meets the parking requirements established by the City for such land use
based on the conditions that only one service shall be allowed at any given time and
that there shall be no other simultaneous services or viewings. Therefore, this use
will not result in impacts which would adversely affect humans or surrounding
properties.
3. That the proposed use will comply with the regulations and conditious
specified in the code for such use.
The proposed mortuary will comply with the applicable conditions, codes and
regulations of the Zoning Ordinance and the Southwest Redevelopment Plan.
4. That the granting of this special use pennit will not adversely affect the
general plan ofthe City or the adopted plan of any government agency.
The Project Site is located in the Southwest Redevelopment Area and implements
the applicable goals and policies of that plan by relocating an existing business. In
addition, the Project implements the applicable goals and policies of the Southwest
Redevelopment Plan by relocating a business enterprise to an area considered
blighted prior to its relocation.

Conference Room #1
Public Services Buildin~
CALL MEETING TO ORDERlROLL CALL: Meeting was called to order at 6:30 P.M. by Chair
BUITaScano. City Staff Environmental Review Coordinator Doug Reid called roll. Present:
Commissioners Burrascano, Marquez, McAlister, Thomas, and Yamada. It was MSUC
(MarquezJThomas) to excuse Commissioner Hall who was ill; vote 5-0, motion carried.
Commissioner Fisher arrived at 6:38 P.M
Also present: Michael Meacham, Conservation Coordinator; Barbara Bamberger, Environmental
Resource Manager; and Susan Herny, Chairperson of the Transportation Committee.
APPROVAL OF MINUTES: It was MSUC (Thomas/Burrascano) to approve the minutes of the
meeting of November 11, 1996, with one correction on page 2, paragraph 1, 5th sentence: This
would not be applicable to spas and existing pools; vote 6-0, motion carried.
ORAL COMMUNICATIONS: None.
NEW BUSINESS:
1. Review of Council Referral on comments from the RCC: Michael Meacham gave a brief
overview of the solid waste management issues. He stated that the goal of the program is
for 50% diversion. Mr. Meacham stated that the City does not have the right to require
school districts to meet the same local conditions. Ms. Marquez asked if cardboard bins
could be included at the major shopping malls and at Price Costco. Mr. Meacham stated
this source recycling is already being implemented. Ms. Thomas and Mr. Fisher suggested
major new businesses provide a plan for solid waste disposal and recycling. Mr. Meacham
stated the City already requires this. Ms. Thomas expressed concern that Rohr should be
made responsible for the cleanup of its own waste; Ms. Bamberger stated this is County
jurisdiction. It was announced that mixed paper, empty aerosols, paint cans, and empty oil
filters have been added to the curbside recycling with its regular pickup beginning in
February. Also, another mixed paper drop-off bin was added at Vons.
2. Discussion and recommendation regarding CoO Report, Barbara Bamberger and Susan
Herny, Transportation Committee: Chair Burrascano asked why the report did not try to
incorporate easy changes. Ms. Herny presented some criteria in measuring for CO2 and
alternative fuel. One criterion was that it address issues in which the City has control over;
the international traffic problem was not subject to the same criteria and therefore was not
included in the analysis. Ms. Marquez expressed that she wanted to see a more aggressive
fonn of solving the problems than was stated in the report. For example, she felt that
reducing the number of parking spaces available to businesses was a more passive rather
than a real solution. She did not feel many issues were adequately addressed, and that they
~
,~

were based on initiatives and rewards rather than mandates. Currently, the plan calls for
more transit near commercial areas.
Commissioner Thomas favored option #16 to emphasize traffic signal upgrades to reduce
carbon dioxide, and # 1 0 to de-emphasize commercial parking. Commissioner Fisher noted
there were adequate parking lots behind buildings on Third Avenue. Ms. Bamberger
stated that the traffic signal upgrade is already planned to be automated. The red lights
will be replaced with new high efficient LED which requires no energy.
Ms. Bamberger explained the Greenstar program, now part of the permit process, was
created for builders to meet a higher level of standard beyond Title 24 requirement
measures. It defined a list of items for energy efficiency that, when implemented into new
homes, would allow the builders to receive benefits and reduction in cost of building
permits. They would also receive "points" toward a "green star."
Commissioner Thomas suggested the report should focus more on hannful methane gasses.
Ms. Bamberger stated most of that was found in the landfill and is currently being covered.
There are no noticeable amounts located within Chula Vista proper, but it is in San Diego.
Commissioners Marquez and Thomas questioned the emissions coming from production of
energy from the SDG&E plant and the amount coming from boats. It was explained that
these emissions were insignificant; however, the study focused mostly on autos.
Commissioner Thomas asked how much was being emitted from Brown Field. Again,
although helicopters and trucks are causing the emission problems, the City has no
jurisdiction or control in that area and it made no negotiations with other jurisdictions.
The motion was made (Thomas!McAlister) to support the CO2 proposal with the
following revisions: greater emphasis and priority on #16, the traffic signal
realignment; substitute the item #10 action measure with an increased awareness in
the educational and community institutions; give full support to the Greenstar
Program; priority be given in reduction of carbon dioxide emissions; and compliance
with the CO2 plan be incorporated into the environmental analysis; Vote: 4 ayes, I
no (Marquez), 1 abstain (Fisher); motion carried. Fisher abstained as he was absent
from any prior discussion. Marquez felt that the plan should take a more aggressive
fonn of solving emission problems and was dissatisfied with the solutions presented.
A second motion was made (McAlister/Yamada) that the CO2 plan further address
the issue of international contributions and that the City support legislation to reduce
these impacts; and the plan address increased efficiency and availability of public
transportation to the community; Vote: 5 ayes, 1 no (Marquez - same reason as
stated above).

3. Review of Negative Declaration IS-97-06, Kentucky Fried Chicken: After a very brief
discussion, a motion was made (FisherlYamada) to accept the negative declaration; vote 5
ayes, I no (Thomas felt a problem already exists with the parking as is and wanted to limit
use of the existing building).
4. Review of Negative Declaration IS-97-10, Humphrey's Mortuary: After review of the
project, it was MSUC (Fisher/McAlister) to accept the negative declaration; vote 6-0,
motion carried.
STAFF REPORT: The MSCP will be reviewed at the February 10 meeting. The RCC was not
able to comment on the wildlife refuge project as the document was not delivered on time.
CHAIRMAN'S COMMENTS: None.
COMMISSIONER'S COMMENTS: Marquez reported volunteers are meeting for the Giant
Reed eradication project on the Sweetwater River. They meet the second Sunday of the month at
the driving range. She suggested someone in with the environmental club can speak to the RCC.
Marquez and Fisher noted they did not receive the wildlife refuge document and requested to see
the City's letter to Council. Thomas commented that not enough data were included in that
report.
ADJOURNMENT: The meeting was adjourned by Chair Burrascano at 8:40 P.M.

PROJECT NAME: HUMPHREY'S MORTUARY
PROJECT LOCATION: 753 Broadway
ASSESSOR'S PARCEL NO.: 572-212-7,572-180-36
PROJECT APPLICANT: The Loewen Group
CASE NO: IS-97-10
DATE: December 11, 1996
A, Proiect Setting
The .9 acre project site is currently paved with asphalt over 100 % of its surface and is being used
as a car/truck rental facility. One portable structure occupies the site and serves as the rental office.
the site has electrical and water service and a septic system. Surrounding uses include commercial
to the north, south and west, and residential to the east.
B, Proiect Description
The project consists of a construction of a 17,586 square foot mortuary with seating for 180 persons
and 45 parking spaces. The building is proposed to be 2 stories and 38 feet in height. The project
proposes to relocate an existing mortuary from a site approximately 1/2 mile to the south.
C, Compatibility with Zorung and Plans
The proposed use is unclassified according to the wrung ordinance and, therefore, requires a Special
Use Permit. The Special Use Permit and conditions placed upon the use will ensure compatibility
with existing wrung.
D. Identification of Environmental Effects
The Initial Study does not identify any significant environmental impacts that would result from
project implementation.
E. Mitigation necessary to avoid significant effects
Since no significant environmental impacts have been identified, no mitigation measures are required.

XXI. DETERMINATION.
On the basis of this initial evaluation:
I find that the proposed project COULD NOT have a significant effect on the [i]
environment, and a NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared,
I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the 0
environment, there will not be a significant effect in this case because the
mitigation measures described on an attached sheet have been added to the project.
A MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared.
I find that the proposed project MAY have a significant effect on the environment, 0
and an ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required.
I find that the proposed project MAY have a significant effect(s) on the 0
environment, but at least one effect: 1) has been adequately analyzed in an earlier
document pursuant to applicable legal standards, and 2) has been addressed by
mitigation measures based on the earlier analysis as described on attached sheets, if
the effect is a "potentially significant impacts" or "potentially significant unless
mitigated." An ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required, but it must
analyze only the effects that remain to be addressed,
I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the 0
environment, there WILL NOT be a significant effect in this case because all
potentially significant effects (a) have been analyzed adequately in an earlier EIR
pursuant to applicable standards and (b) have been avoided or mitigated pursuant
to that earlier EIR, including revisions or mitigation measures that are imposed
upon the proposed project. An addendum has been prepared to provide a record of
this determination.

DISCUSSION:
L Background
In October of 1993, the City Council and County Board of Supervisors jointly adopted the
Otay Ranch General Development Plan/Subregional Plan for the 23,000-acre Otay Ranch,
On June 4, 1996, the City Council approved the Sectional Planning Area (SPA) One Plan
for Villages One and Five of the Otay Ranch, The SPA One Plan was processed by Village
Development for the entire 1,110 acres of Villages One and Five, The Planning Commission
recommended approval of a tentative map on the entire SPA One area on July 10, 1996. As
previously discussed, Village Development revised their map to exclude ITom the tentative
map the 290 acres in the WCLF foreclosure action,
In August of 1996, WCLF foreclosed on 1,036 acres of the Otay Ranch, including the 290
acres located in Villages One and Five, Subsequently, the Planning Commission
recommended approval of Village Development's revised tentative map, The City Council
approved the majority of Village Development's map on November 19, 1996, The balance
of the map in Village Five was continued to see if Village Development and WCLF could
reach agreement on the Village Five land plan, When McMillin Companies filed a tentative
map that was substantially consistent with the approved SPA One Plan, staff returned to the
City Council recommending approval of Village Development's map, McMillin is currently
in the process of acquiring the WCLF ownership and is processing a SPA One Plan
amendment and tentative map over a portion of the 290 acres within Villages One and Five,
The Environmental Review Coordinator has prepared Initial Study IS 97-21 and concluded
that the existing Program EIR for the GDP and Second-Tier EIR for the SPA One Plan
provide adequate prior review of the project's environmental impacts, The Coordinator has
prepared an addendum to the Second-Tiered EIR substantiating this position, The
addendum is attached to the Planning Commission resolutions

II. Applicant's Proposal
A. SPA One Plan Amendments
Except for the deletion of Park P-5 and Santa Delphina as Promenade Street, McMillin
Companies has submitted a tentative map that is in compliance with the approved SPA One
Plan, However, specific amendments to SPA One are necessary to address these deletions,
Most of the SPA amendments focus on Neighborhood R-ll in Village One, The
amendments in this neighborhood delete the pedestrian park and promenade street and
increase the number of lots ITom 116 to 125. Minor amendments are proposed to
Neighborhoods R-22, R-23 and R-24 in Village Five. These amendments rearrange the
single-family densities in the neighborhoods north of the Village Five Core, The Phasing
Plan also changes to reflect all of McMillin's single-family homes in their first phase of
development, The current SPA Phasing Plan indicates this area as Phase 3 but with the
approval of this amendment and map, this area will develop on its own schedule
concurrently with Village Development's phases, The proposed changes to phasing will be
reflected in the update to the Public Facilities Finance Plan that is required prior to the first
Final "B" map.
B. Tentative Map
1. Village One
McMillin Companies tentative subdivision map proposes a total of 1,877 dwelling units on
the 290 acres in their portion of Villages One and Five, All the streets in McMillin's map are
public as opposed to the private streets approved for Village Development's portion of the
SPA One Plan. In Village One, the WCLF owns Neighborhoods R-I I and R-12. The map
subdivides R-ll into 125 6,000 square foot single-family lots, Two options are proposed
for R-12.
a. Neighborhood R-ll
Neighborhood R-II in Village One was allocated 118 single-family units with a density of
4.1 dwelling units per acre under the approved SPA One Plan, McMillin is proposing 125
units on 29,8 acres with a density of 4,2 dwelling units per acre under their SPA One
amendment, The tentative map proposes 125 units with 60-foot by 105-foot pads on
slightly larger lots depending on the grading and slopes, The applicant proposes to delete
the Pedestrian Park P-5 ITom the SPA One Plan, If the Planning Commission believes the
pedestrian park is needed in the neighborhood, 8 lots between Santa Delphina Avenue,
Montana Drive and Bellena Avenue could be combined to form the park and a residential
street The SPA amendment is discussed fully in the issues section ofthis agenda statement,
The applicant also proposes to reduce Santa Delphina ITom a promenade street to a
Residential A Street Staff has proposed conditions to require an additional street tree
easement in the front yards of the homes fronting on Santa Delphina, providing the double
row of trees similar to the promenade street but with a reduced parkway and sidewalk (See
Exhibit A), Santa Delphina provides the access to the regional trail in Telegraph Canyon
Ota)TnchiMcspa\PCSTfRPT.DOC
Page 4, Item 2
Meeting Date: May 21. 1997
Staff believes this design will provide a similar pedestrian environment as the promenade
street and due to the limited area served, the revised street design is acceptable with staff.
Due to the private streets in Village Development's Neighborhood R-IO to the west, Santa
Delphina is the only access to Neighborhood R-II, Emergency access is provided between
R-IO and R- I I. This access will contain "grasscrete" or a similar surface and will be
maintained by the master homeowners association,
b. Neighborhoods R-12 and R-13
Neighborhoods R-12 and R-B in Village One are split by the ownership of Village
Development and WCLF, Only portions of Neighborhoods R-12 and R-B were subdivided
by Village Development's tentative map. The portion of Village Development's R-12 north
of Santa Flora was not subdivided, and there are residual lots left in R-12 and R-B that are
adjacent to McMillin's R-12 (E),
Two alternative subdivisions are proposed for R-12, Alternative A requires a land swap with
Village Development and places all ofR-12 in McMillin's ownership and all ofR-B within
Village Development's ownership (See Exhibit B), This alternative produces the best
overall subdivision design for the two neighborhoods and is staff's recommended plan for
this area. McMillin proposes 104 single-family lots in this alternative. Village
Development's portion would be lotted for 122 units finishing out the lot pattern of their
approved tentative map,
Alternative B proposes a stand-alone subdivision on McMillin's portion of Village 12, It
takes temporary access off Palomar Street with permanent access provided on Santa Flora
when Village Development develops its portion of Village 12, McMillin's map proposes 86
lots for their portion ofR-12. Village Development has 64 lots approved on their portion of
R-I2 and 76 lots on R-B with a potential balance of 45 lots for the residual part ofR-12
that was not subdivide under Village Development's map,
Alternative A is the subdivision recommended by staff, and both owners support the
landswap, however, McMillin is concerned about relying on the landswap with Village
Development in order to record a final map on R-12, A 6-month time limit has been
proposed in the conditions for completion of the land swap, If the swap has not occurred,
then McMillin can record a final map using Alternative B, Staff will assist in facilitating the
landswap, If swap cannot be achieved, Alternative B is acceptable with staff,
2. Village Five
The tentative map on Village Five proposes 316 single-family homes and 1,350 multi-family
units, a 10-acre elementary school site, three park sites on 15,8 acres plus their portion of
the paseo, 8, I acres of CPF on three sites and two commercial sites of 3,3 acres, These land
uses and densities are substantially the same as the SPA One Plan, While this portion of the
tentative map is in compliance with the approved SPA One Plan, the second phase of
McMillin's work program will re-evaluate the Village Five core land uses and densities, The
Otaymch!Mcspa\PCSTFRPT.DOC
Page 5, Item 2
Meeting Date: May 21, 1997
alignment of Palomar Street, with the trolley right-of-way and the promenade streets, has
not changed on the proposed tentative map.
a. Neighborhood R-22
Neighborhood R-22 proposes a small lot single-family "duplex" design that McMillin has
used in their Rancho del Rey Project. These houses are individual homes on zero lot-line
lots that share a common wall with an adjacent unit. Since a specific product has not been
proposed at this time, the future product is required by the conditions of approval to go
through design review, There are 92 lots proposed, and McMillin acknowledges that a
reduction in lots may be necessary to achieve an acceptable design, Due to intersection
spacing'standards, one entrance is proposed with a pedestrian access to Santa Cora at the
north end of the neighborhood.
b. Neighborhood R-23
Neighborhood R-23 proposes a 50-foot by 70-foot pads on 86 lots, Two internal cul-de-
sacs are proposed. Staff required the cul-de-sacs to be open for pedestrian access to Santa
Cora, the promenade street to the village core,
c. Neighborhood R-24
Neighborhood R-24 is a standard 5,000 square foot lot design with 138 lots proposed. The
key feature here is Pedestrian Park P-9 and the Paseo to the schooVpark sites and the
village core, The ownership boundary between McMillin and Village Development splits
Pedestrian Park P-9, now called P-6,3, on McMillin's tentative map. McMillin has agreed to
construct their portion of this pedestrian park and their share of the paseo. McMillin
controls 1 acre of the pedestrian park and a IS-foot wide section of the paseo. Because of
the dual ownership, the City Council decided, during Village Development's tentative map,
that this pedestrian park and paseo should be publicly owned and maintained, All the cul-de-
sacs open onto the paseo or park.
AI; in Village One, the circulation pattern is limited due to private streets in Village
Development's portion of Village Five. Santa Cora is the access in and out of McMillin's
area of Village Five, Emergency access is provided by Bouquet Canyon to Neighborhood
R-25 in Village Five.
d. Neighborhood R-46
Neighborhood R-46 is the only multi-family site that is north of Palomar Street and part of
the first phase of McMillin's development. The applicant proposes liS multi-family units on
the 7, 2-acre lot. This site is identified in the SPA One Affordable Housing Plan as a target
site for Village Five,
e. Elementary School Site
The elementary school site proposed on the tentative map is consistent with the location and
size indicated on the SPA One Plan, The Chula Vista Elementary School District has
indicated the site is acceptable and, while the site in Village One will be the first school in
Otaymch;Mcspa\PCSTFRPT. DOC
Page 6, Item 2
Meeting Date: May 21. 1997
the two villages, they request that it be made available on demand, approximately 1,000
units into the development of Village Five, The conditions of approval reflect this
requirement.
f. Park P-6.6
The applicant controls 7.6 acres of this 10,l-acre neighborhood park in Village Five,
McMillin has proposed to construct this park as a "turn-key" park if they can adequately
control the park design process with City input. Otherwise, McMillin prefers to pay Park
Acquisition and Development (pAD) fees to the City, City staff wants to ensure that the
City has adequate input into the design process since this will be a public park and needs to
meet the City's park program for facilities, Staff has required in the conditions of approval
that the park design comply with the City's Landscape Manual which sets out the design
process for City parks, The specifics of the design process will refined through additional
discussion between McMillin and the City. The park is required to be offered for dedication
on the first "B" map and the threshold for the park will be further evaluated by the update
of the PFFP, Any changes in park thresholds will require Planning commission and City
Council approval,
g. Village Core
The applicant's tentative map for the Village Five Core proposes to divide the core into lots
as indicated on the SPA One Plan, Staff believes the map is therefore consistent with the
SPA One Plan. The applicant has indicated that they are planning to replan the Village Five
core land uses in their next phase of development,
m. ISSUES:
A. SPA One Amendment
Should Pedestrian Park P-5 be deleted from Neighborhood R-ll in the SPA One
Plan?
Applicant's Proposal
McMillin Companies has proposed deleting Pedestrian Park P-5 because they believe the
conventional lots proposed in this neighborhood will meet the private recreation needs of
the residents, In addition, they believe since the neighborhood park acreage of P-I and P-2
meet the parkland requirements of the GDP and SPA, the park can be deleted because the
pedestrian park acreage is above the requirement.
Analysis
The Otay Ranch General Development Plan (GDP) provides for park credit for
neighborhood and community parks within the Otay Ranch, The Otay Ranch SPA One Plan
established a standard of 1 acre per 1,000 residents for community parks and 2 acres per
1,000 residents for neighborhood parks, The approved neighborhood parks in SPA One
satisfied the park requirement, and the pedestrian parks provided additional parks above the
OtaymchiMcspa\PCSTFRPT.DOC
Page 7, Item 2
Meeting Date: May 21. 1997
requirement. Pedestrian parks were proposed to provide recreational opportunities within
walking distance of the single-family neighborhoods that were not adjacent to a
neighborhood park. Park P-5 was approved as a Q,S-acre pedestrian park for Neighborhood
R-I I in the SPA One Plan, In the SPA One Plan, Neighborhood R-l I is approved for 118
single-family lots with a density of 4,1 dwelling units per acre on the eastern side of Village
One, This neighborhood is on the north side of Palomar Street The closest neighborhood
parks are Park P-2 located more than 1/4 mile for the majority of the neighborhood on the
south side of Palomar Street and Park P-I in the village core, over a half mile away,
Pedestrian Parks were proposed by Village Development as part of the SPA One Plan.
These parks are part of the "Village Concept", The Village Concept in the GDP establish
the transit and pedestrian orientation policies for the Otay Ranch Village Development
proposed these small parks in the single-family neighborhoods outside the village cores to
provide casual recreational opportunities in these neighborhoods, The larger neighborhood
parks are centrally located in each village to provide organized sport opportunities, These
parks were planned with a lI2-mile service radius. The pedestrian parks have a smaller
service radius which is focussed on the neighborhood in which they are located,
The SPA One Plan allows 118 lots in Neighborhood R-II with the D,8-acre Pedestrian Park
P-5, McMillin is now proposing 125 lots without the park. Deletion of the park adds lots to
the neighborhood with no additional amenities,
The applicant's proposal to delete Pedestrian Park P-5 was reviewed by the Technical
Committee, The Planning Commission will recall that, the Otay Ranch Project has a specific
staff review process for resolving issues that come up during the review of plans on the
Otay Ranch. The Technical Committee is made up of representatives of the Planning,
Engineering, Fire and Parks and Recreation Departments. The committee believed this park
was a key pedestrian feature of the neighborhood and was opposed to its elimination, The
committee was concerned about what can be seen as an incremental reduction in the neo-
traditional features of the project. The physical design of the neighborhood can effect the
quality of life in the neighborhood, and the committee believed that these features need to
be maintained to improve that quality in these future neighborhoods,
The nearest pedestrian park to Neighborhood R-II is P-3 which is over 1/2-mile away, The
closest Neighborhood Park is P-2 located over 1/4 mile away, but on the south side of
Palomar. The deletion of Park P-5 would mean residents would drive to these parks instead
of walking which is contrary to the pedestrian concept. The Technical Committee also felt
that the pedestrian parks provide visual relief within the rather dense single-family
neighborhoods,
Since the Technical Committee position was in conflict with the applicant, the issue was
taken to the Policy Committee, The Policy Committee is comprised of the City Manager
and department heads, Unresolved issues are raised to the Policy Committee for resolution,

Meeting Date: Mav 21. 1997
Staff Position
The Policy Committee generally agreed with the applicants position that the SPA park
requirements were met by the neighborhood parks and that the lots in R-ll could satisfy the
recreational needs of the neighborhood, However, the Policy Committee believed the
deletion of the pedestrian park was a major policy decision for the City Council. Both the
Parks and Recreation and Planning Commissions will be asked for their recommendations
on the park deletion. If the Commissions believe this park is an important pedestrian feature
of this neighborhood, the subdivision can be easily redesigned to include the park by
modifying eight lots for the park and street,
B. Planned Community District Regulations Amendment
Should the required number of "Hollywood" Driveways be Reduced?
Applicant's Proposal
McMillin Companies is concerned about the marketability of homes with the "Hollywood"
driveways, The "Hollywood' driveway requirement sets the garages back a minimum of 30
feet ITom the ITont property line and requires a landscaping strip or other material in the
center of the drive on lots 55 feet wide by 105 feet long, McMillin has proposed the
following changes in bold print to the PC District Regulations requirement increasing the lot
size requirement to 60-foot by IIO-foot pads in order to exempt Neighborhood R-24 from
the standard and provide only 25% in R-II :
2 A minimum of 30% of the garages on housing located on lots at least 60 feet by 110
deep (pads) shall be set back a minimum of 30 feet and incorporate a "Hollywood"
driveway (see Village Design Plan), The model home for Parcel R-ll shall include at
least one model with the option of being sited and constructed with the
"Hollywood" driveway concept.
Analysis
As part of any SPA plan, Planned Community District Regulations are adopted to provide
the detailed land use standards that function as a Zoning Ordinance, In addition, the Otay
Ranch SPA One Plan District Regulations contain the design features of the Village
Concept, In the residential neighborhoods, these features primarily deal with the
streetscape, In order to make the streetscape more pedestrian fiiendly, many garages are
required to set back further, porches are required and sidewalks are separated from the curb
with a parkway, The current PC regulation addressing "Hollywood' driveways is contain in
a footnote to the setback requirements and reads as follows:
2 A minimum of 30% of the garages on housing located on lots at least 55 feet wide and
105 deep shall be set back a minimum of 30 feet and incorporate a "Hollywood" driveway
(see Village Design Plan),
O1ayrnchiMcspa\PCSTFRPT.DOC
Page 9, Item 2
Meeting Date: May 21, 1997
Staff Position
Staff is concerned about the amendment since it effects all of SPA One Plan, and changing
the standard would reduce the number of "Hollywood" driveways SPA wide, McMillin has
designed their lot based on pad width as a opposed to Village Development who set the
standard based on lot width, Of the 138 lots in McMillin's Neighborhood R-24, 36 qualify
as being 55 feet wide producing only 12 "Hollywood" driveways in the entire 136 lot
subdivision, Just 12 of these driveways will not have a significant effect on the streetscape
in this neighborhood. Staff would prefer to exempt R-24 ITom the requirement and maintain
the standard SPA wide.
In an effort to address the marketability issue, the standard could be modified to allow the
Director of Planning the discretion to waive the requirement if it can be demonstrated the
units with "Hollywood" driveways are not marketable. Originally, the Technical Committee
wanted all units on the larger lots to have "Hollywood" drives but compromised to 30 per
cent because of the marketability issue, The Committee understands the marketing issues
but wants to maintain the standard, The following recommendation allows the Planning
Director discretion with the issue, If substantial evidence is not provided by the developer,
the director can refer the issue to the Commission for resolution,
2 A minimum of 30% of the garages on housing located on lots at least 55 feet wide and
105 deep shall be set back a minimum of30 feet and incorporate a "Hollywood" driveway
(see Village Design Plan), The model home for Parcel Neighborhood R-ll shall
include at least one model with the option of being sited and constructed with
"Hollywood" driveway concept. The Director of Planning may waive this
requirement based on evidence from the developer that these units are not
marketable, and are replaced with an alternative plan that is consistent with the
Village Design Plan. The Director may refer the issue to the Planning Commission
resolution if in the Director's opinion the evidence is not adequate to make a clear
determination. Neighborhood R-24 is exempt from this requirement.
C. Tentative Map
Should residential street with parkways be used in the applicant's residential
neighborhoods?
Applicant's Proposal
The applicant wants to use the City's standard monolithic sidewalks with walk adjacent to
the curb and gutter in all but two of the residential streets in their tentative map. They are
concerned about increasing the driveway distance and maintenance ofthe parkway,
Analvsis
The SPA One Plan approved two street design cross sections for residential streets in these
two villages, Residential Street A provides a 6-foot parkway between the 4-foot sidewalk
and the curb, Residential Street B allows the City standard 5-foot sidewalk adjacent to the
Otaymch'Mcspa\PCSTFRPT, DOC
Page 10, Item 2
Meeting Date: Mav 21. ] 997
curb, Street A is seen as providing a superior pedestrian environment because it separates
the pedestrian ITom the travel lanes of the streets and will provide a tree canopy for shade
on the sidewalk. The Village Design Plan requires Street A to be used predominantly
throughout the residential neighborhoods, Street B is allowed in special circumstances in
conjunction with alley products or small lot single-family,
McMillin has proposed using Street A in only two locations: as a replacement for the
promenade street on Santa Delphina Avenue in R-ll and on Lonetree Drive in R-24 in
Village Five. This street is indicated on the SPA One Plan running ITom the promenade
street, Santa Cora to the Pedestrian Park P-6.3, The applicant proposes using Street B on
all the other residential streets in their portion of SPA One, Village Development uses
Street A except for their alley product neighborhoods,
Staff Position
Staff has proposed conditions requiring Street A on all neighborhoods except R-22, the
"duplex" product, which qualifies as a small lot single-family product, The conditions of
approval also require the applicant to landscape the parkway and provide irrigation, either
by a HOA or by the individual home owner. The parkways are another key pedestrian
fiiendly feature of neighborhood, The Village Design Plan is clear that parkways are to be
the rule rather than the exception.
D. Tentative Map
Should a Master Homeowners Association be required to maintain the open space
and landscaping?
Applicant Proposal
McMillin prefers an open space maintenance district similar to Rancho del Rey to maintain
the open space and common landscaping in the tentative map,
Analysis
The Engineering Department has recommended that a Master Homeowners Associations be
formed to maintain the slopes, parkways and other landscaped areas for this portion of SPA
One, An open space maintenance district will be formed to maintain the street medians and
drainage channels and back up the MHOA if it fails to maintains landscaping to City
standards,
The Rancho del Rey OSMD is funded by a ]972 Landscaping and Lighting District which
are now subject to Proportion 218, Proposition 218 places a number of restrictions on the
use of benefit assessment by local agencies to pay for maintaining public improvements, The
Engineering Department has hired a consultant to review this issue and make
recommendations to the City Council on structuring open space maintenance districts, The
consultant is scheduled to report to the City Council at their May 20th meeting on their
recommendations, The consultants have also been hired by the City to form the OSMD for
Ota)mchIMcspa\PCSTFRPT.DOC
Page 11, Item 2
Meeting Date: May 21. 1997
the approved portions of SPA One, They are recommending the City use Community
Facility Districts to pay for on-going maintenance costs.
The Engineering Department believes the primary responsibility for maintaining landscaping
belongs with the local residents, Currently, EastLake has an HOA and Village Development
has been required to form one, These communities have private facilities to maintain, There
are none in McMillin's proposal, Since the issue is moving forward to City Council for a
City-wide policy, the Commission may wish to defer this issue to the City Council for
resolution under the new Council policy,
Staff Position
Staff believes a :MHOA is the most appropriate funding mechanism for the open space and
landscaping with a backup of an open space maintenance district funded by a community
finance district, City Council is scheduled to discuss this issue at their May 20th meeting,

changes have occurred with respect to the circumstances under which the project is undertaken
since the previous reports; (3) and no new infonnation of substantial importance to the project has
become available since the issuance and approval of the prior reports; and that, therefore, no new
effects could occur or no new mitigation measures will be required in addition to those already in
existence and made a condition for Project implementation, Therefore, the City Council approves
the Project as an activity that is within the scope of the project covered by the Program EIR and
FEIR, and a third Addendum has been prepared (Guideline 15168 (c)(2) and 15162 (a)),

CASE NO: IS-97-21
DATE: May 9, 1997
I. INTRODUCTION
(a) When an EIR has been certified or a Negative Declaration adopted for a
project, no subsequent EIR shall be prepared for that project unless the
lead agency determines, on the basis of substantial evidence in the
light of the whole record, one or more of the following:
1. Substantial changes are proposed in the project which will require
major revisions of the previous EIR or Negative Declaration due to
the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a
substantial increase in the severity of previously identified
significant effects;
2. Substantial changes occur with respect to the circumstances under
which the project is undertaken which will require major revisions
of the previous EIR or Negative Declaration due to the involvement
of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase
in the severity of previously identified significant effects; or
3. New information of substantial importance which was not known and
could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence
at the time the previous EIR was certified as complete or the
Negative Declaration was adopted.
(b) If changes to a project or its circumstances occur or new information
becomes available after adoption of a Negative Declaration, the lead
agency shall prepare a subsequent EIR if required under subsection (a).
Otherwise the lead agency shall determine whether to prepare a
subsequent Negative Declaration, an addendum, or no further
documentation.

the Otay Ranch SPA I, EIR-95-01.
II. PROJECT SETTING
The project site is located to the south of Telegraph Canyon Road and Otay
Lakes Road on both sides of the extension of La Media Avenue. The project
involves the eastern portion of Village One and the western portion of
Village Five (see attached located map Figure 1).
The Otay Ranch GDP defines Village One as the land area both e~st and west of
Paseo Ranchero between Telegraph Canyon Road and East Orange Avenue. The SPA
One plan includes all of Village Five and the portion of Village One east of
Paseo Ranchero. The SPA land plan excludes entitlements for the area west of
Paseo Ranchero, with the exception of public facilities necessary to serve
SPA One (e.g. roadways, transit corridor), which traverse the area west of
Paseo Ranchero.
The project area is surrounded on three sides by the urbanized areas of the
City of Chula Vista to the east, west, and north. Villages Two and Six are
south of the project area. Other adjacent properties include the Otay Water
District property, the planned State Route 125 corridor to the east, and thr
planned Phase 2 of the Sunbow project to the west. Access to the site i~
currently provided via Telegraph Canyon Road/Otay Lakes Road, an east-west
arterial which forms the northern boundary of the site.
The SPA One project area contains approximately 1,095.8 acres of gently
rolling terrain. Past and current uses of the site include ranching,
graz~ng, dry-farming and truck farming activities. The project site is
currently vacant, unoccupied and in an unimproved condition.
III. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
(a) SPA One Amendments
McMillin Companies has submitted a tentative map that is mostly in
compliance with the approved SPA One Plan. However, several amendments
to SPA One are necessary to find the proposed tentative map in
compliance with the SPA One Plan. Most of the SPA amendments focus on
Neighborhood R-11 in Village One. The amendments in this neighborhood
delete the pedestrian park and promenade street and increase the number
of lots from 116 to 125. Minor amendments are proposed to Neighborhoods
R-22, R-23 and R-24 in Village Five. These amendments rearrange the
single-family densities in the neighborhoods north of the Village Five
Core. The Phasing Plan also changed to reflect all of McMillin's
single-family homes in both villages in their first phase of
development. (See Figure 2.)
-2-
(b) Tentative Map
Village One
McMillin Companies tentative subdivision map proposes a total of l,877
dwelling units on the 290 acres in their portion of Village One and
Five. In Village One, the.WCLF owns Neighborhoods R-ll and R-l2. (See
Figure 3.) The map subdivides R-ll into 125, 6,000 square foot single-
family lots. Two options are proposed for R-12. Neighborhood R-12 was
not subdivided under Village Development's tentative map since the
property line between WCLF (West Coast Land Fund) and Village
Development split the neighborhood. Two alternatives are proposed by
McMillin's map. Staff supports Alternative A, which requires a boundary
adjustment with Village Development and creates 106 lots with access off
Santa Flora. Alternative B is a stand alone subdivision of 86 lots on
just WCLF property with a temporary access on Palomar. This alternative
leaves several residual parcels on Village Development's property which
will cause them to redesign in the future. .
Village Five
The tentative map on Village Five proposes 316 single-family homes and
1,350 multi-family units, a 10-acre elementary school site, three park
sites on 15.8 acres plus their portion of the paseo, 8.1 acres of CPF on
three sites and two commercial sites of 3.3 acres. (See Figure 4.)
These land uses and densities are substantially the same as the SPA One
Plan. While,this portion of the tentative map is in compliance with the
approved SPA One Plan, the second phase of McMillin's work program will
re-evaluate the Village Five core land uses and densities. The
alignment of Palomar Street, with the trolley right-of-way and the
promenade streets, has not changed on the proposed tentative map.
IV. ANALYSIS
The proposed modifications to the Otay Ranch SPA I Plan and the tentative
subdivision map represent only minor technical changes in the SPA I land use
and operational characteristics. The proposed modifications to dwelling unit
types, land use and street clasification are not of such a magnitude to
warrant the preparation of a subsequent environmental document.
V. CONCLUSION
Pursuant to Section 15164 of the State CEQA Guidelines and based upon the
above discussion, I hereby find that the project revisions to the proposed
project will result in only minor technical changes or additions which are
necessary to make the Environmental Impact Report adequate under CEQA.

XXI. DETERMINATIO,
On the basis of this initial evaluation:
I find that the proposed project COULD NOT have a significant effect on the 0
environment, and a J\'EGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared.
I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the 0
environment, there will not be a signIficant effect in this case because the
mitigation measures described on an attached sheet have been added to the project.
A MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared.
I find that the proposed project MAY have a significant effect on the environment, 0
and an ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required.
I find that the proposed project MAY have a significant effect( s) on the 0
environment, but at least one effect: 1) has been adequately analyzed in an earlier
document pursuant to applicable legal standards, and 2) has been addressed by
mitigation measures based on the earlier analysis as described on attached sheet$, if
the effect is a "potentially significant impacts" or "potentially significant unless
mitigated." An ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required, but it must
analyze only the effects that remain to be addressed.
I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the .
environment, there WILL NOT be a significant effect in this case because all
potentially significant effects (a) have been analyzed adequately in an earlier EIR
pursuant to applicable standards and (b) have been avoided or mitigated pursuant
to that earlier EIR, induding revisions or mitigation measures that are imposed
upon the proposed project. An addendum has been prepared to provide a record of

LAND USE PLAN
II. LAND USE
The following provides a detailed description of Village One and
Village Five land uses, as depicted on the SPA One Land Use Plan
(Exhibit 1-6). Table 1-2 provides a comparison between the GDP
and SPA land use plans. Differences in acres (as described in more
detail below) are attributable to more precise road locations, open
space areas and development areas.
This portion of the document also analyzes the SPA land plan to
evaluate consistency between this SPA Plan and the Otay Ranch
General Development Plan. The following table sumarizes the dif-
ferences between the GDP defined Villages One and Five and the
scope of this SPA Plan.

The Oray Ranch General Development Plan defines Village One as
containing approximately 904 acres. However, Oray Ranch SPA
One covers a smaller area of approximately 619 acres. This reduced
planning area includes the land surrounded by Paseo Ranchero,
Telegraph Canyon Road, La Media and Easr Orange Ave. and ex-
cludes the area west of Pas eo Ranchero.3 Accordingly, the number
of units identified in the Village One SPA plan reflects the land uses
approved in the Oray Ranch General Development Plan for the
areas east of Paseo Ranchero and excludes the areas west of Paseo
Ranchero.
3 A detailed discussion regarding the area west of Pas80 Ranchero is provided on page 1--4710 I-52,

As depicted in Table 1-5 above, there are differences between the
acreages depicted in the GDP and SPA for Village Five. These dif-
ferences are attributable to the more precise level of planning un-
dertaken to prepare the SPA One Land Use Plan. For example, the
GDP included acreage for internal circulation in the single family
residential acreage - the SPA identifies internal circulation acreage
separately. The GDP included 6.6 acres of neighborhood park land
within the Village Five residential acreage, but the SPA identifies
neighborhood park acreage separately. Village Five includes more
open space acreage because the GDP did not include the slope areas
adjacent to the Otay Water District Property in the open space to-
tals - the SPA land Use Plan includes those open space areas.
I. Design Influences
The primary design influence for Village Five is the pedestrian
friendly village concept established in the Otay Ranch General
Development Plan. Other influen= reflecr on-site condirions and
characteristics such as, landforms, biological resources, drainage
patterns, aesthetics, land use relationships and circularion patterns.
Existing development patterns and Chula Vista's General Plan poli-
cies for adjoining undeveloped land also influenced the design of
Village Five. The adjacent plans and uses include the regional open
space system, off-site circulation consideration, public facility con-
Otay Ranch Sectional Planning Area One
PART I
LAND USE PLAN
nections, the Telegraph Canyon SPA and EastLake Greens. Village
Five design influences and requirements are reviewed more fully in
the Village Design Plans (Appendix B).
a. Site Characteristics and Visual Context
Village Five is bounded on the north by Otay Lakes Road and the
south by Poggi Canyon. The entire Otay Ranch Otay Valley Parcel
has been farmed or grazed, leaving only isolated areas of very frag-
mented habitat. The southern edge of the village consists of the
undulating slopes of eastern Poggi Canyon. The northern edge of
Village Five is Telegraph Canyon. Limited scenic values extend along
Otay Lakes Road and East Orange Avenue, both identified in the
Otay Ranch GDP as scenic corridors. The village contains views to
the surrounding mountains to the northeast and east and to the
Pacific Ocean to the west. The dominant features within the Village
Five site include:
. Telegraph Canyon
. Poggi Canyon
. Associated Drainage Courses
. Limited Views to Mountains and Pacific Ocean
Preserved open space areas within Village Five will surround resi-
dential neighborhoods, public improvements and ameniries, creat-
ing a well-defined community. There are 90.2 acres of open space
within Village Five. The largest open space area includes the slopes
of Poggi and Telegraph Canyons. This area will eventually be part
of a Ranch-wide system of open space and trails. Graded slopes will
be landscaped to be visually compatible with the other natural slopes.
b. Transition to Existing and Praposed Surrounding Land Uses
The Village Five Land Use Plan is influenced by current and planned
surrounding land uses. Surrounding projects are depicted on the
Regional Context Map (Exhibit 1-8).
Villages One and Five are defined on their northern and southern
edges by significant landscape buffers and slopes. The northern
buffer is Telegraph Canyon and Otay Lakes Road. The southern
buffer is Poggi Canyon and East Orange Avenue. These buffers
separate developed areas from land uses on the opposite sides of the
canyons. The existing land uses north of Telegraph Canyon are
varied, ranging from a Mobilehome Park to single family homes.

Otay Ranch Sectional Planning Area One
PART I
PHASING PLAN
x. PHASING PLAN
The development of Otay Ranch SPA One will be completed in
several phases to ensure construction of necessary infrastructure and
amenities for each phase as the project progresses. The Phasing
Plan (Exhibit 1-32) reflects anticipated market demand for a variety
of housing types and commercial development.
The purpose of this plan is to demonstrate one way to phase the
development in order to satisfY anticipated market, facility and
amenity demands. However, it is understood that changes in the
marketplace or the need for facilities will result in changes in project
phasing. Further. the fact that two ownerships within SPA One will
be developing concurrently adds complexity to the phasiqg plan.
In this regard, creating a phasing plan for SPA One has proven to be
a challenge because it is exceedingly difficult to forecast, with any
confidence, future market conditions. It is recognized that upon
adoption of a SPA One Plan, the current marketplace will not sup-
pon the development of multi-family homes or non-residential uses.
It is further recognized that the current market for single family
homes is depressed compared to recent experiences. These market
realities consrrain Omy Ranch SPA One phasing options. Specifi-
cally, early phases must rely almost exclusively on the development
of single family detached neighborhoods.
However, consistent with the provisions of the Chula Vista General
Plan and Otay Ranch General Development Plan, it is desirable to
develop Otay Ranch villages with greater variety than conventional
single family detached neighborhoods. Specifically, it is desirable
to introduce multi-family homes and commercial uses into SPA
One as soon as the marketplace will permit. It is further desirable
to initially focus on development of only one of the SPA One vil-
lage cores to increase the feasibility of the core. However, this should
not be done at the detriment of providing basic public services in
Villages One and Five.
In order to permit phasing consistent with current market realities,
but to ensure the timely development of diverse and balanced com-
munities, the following policy shall apply to the phasing of SPA
One:
Review and update of the SPA One Phasing Plan shall commence
prior to the issuance of a building permit within SPA One for the
1, 150th unit, and be completed prior to the issuance of a building

permit within SPA One for the 1,400th unit, adhering to the fol-
lowing objectives:
o Provide economically and physically feasible access toa high
school site, community park site and neighborhood park.
o Identify residential phasing to complement the east.west access
sc:lection (E. Palomar Street or E. Orange Avenue).
o Promote build-out of an entire village.
o Promote accc:leration of a village core area.
o Consider market conditions, product absorption and location of
appropriate product to meet demand.
o Consider the provision of public services in the village which is
not the focus of accc:lerated dc:vc:lopment.
o Consider the provision of affordable housing opportunities.

Phase IA
Phase lA, Li.~ ;..;l;..1 SI':A O..~ pI~...~ is to be devc:loped in Village
Five. The phase consists of approximatc:ly 260 single family units.
Phase lA includes the extension of St. Clair Drive from Tc:legraph
Canyon Road into the northeast portion of Village Five and a 1.2
acre pedestrian park (P-lO).
Phasel B
Phase 1 B consists of approximatc:ly 485 single-family units and a
168 unit multi-family site within Village One. Depending on mar-
ket conditions, Phase 1 B may be: constructed concurrenclywith Phase
lA or may be deferred until a future phase. Access to Phase 1 B will
be provided through the construction of a two lane access road from
Tc:legraph Canyon Road into Village One.
A 10 acre c:lementary school site will be provided in Phase lB.
Construction of the first SPA One c:lementary school must be pro-
vided consistent with the provisions of the PFFP. A 2.1 acre neigh-
borhood park (P-3) is also included in Phase 1 B.
Phase 2A

for development early in the construction of SPA One because it is
anticipated that market conditions will be more favorable for single-
family detached homes. A pedestrian oriented paseo connects Vil-
lage Five, through the Otay Water District property, into the
EastLake project. :It. ApprOJcirn.tely one-h.lf of the 2.0 acre neigh-
borhood park (P-9) is included within the single-family residential
area northeast of the village core. The 10.6 acre Village Five neigh-
borhood park site (P-6) must be provided consistent with the pro-
visions of the PFFp, most likely during the development of this
phase and Vill~ Five West. Phase 1. The initial park improve-
ments will be equivalent to 5 acres of park development. Construc-
tion of the first SPA One elementary school will need to be com-
pleted during this phase, consistent with the PFFP.
Phase 2B
Phase 2B is located in the north west portion of Village One, east of
Paseo Ranchero and north of East Palomar Street. This phase con-
sists of 433 single family units and a 140 unit multi-family site.
Access to the Phase 2B area is provided from Telegraph Canyon
Road. It is also envisioned that a pedestrian oriented Paseo would
be included as part of the western edge of Phase 2B. An 11.1 acre
neighborhood park (P-l) is included within the Village One core
area. Park improvements will be phased to meet SPA One demand.
A .8 acre pedestrian park (P-4) is also included in this phase, in the
residential area north of the village core.

Phase ~ .5. is the last SPA One phase and includes the western most
portion of Village One, including the village core and most of Vil-
lage One's multi-family units. This phase also includes site prepa-
ration for all of the Village One CPF sites and the commercial sites.
It is anticipated that this phase will be developed last because the
demand for significant commercial activirywill not occur until there
is a sufficient population base within Village One and the surround-
ing communiry to support such uses. A similar rationale applies to
the larger CPF sites.

that the market acceptance for attached units will be improved by
the time Phase 7- 5. is consuucred. It is also anticipated that devel-
opment of higher density multi-family lots will significantly lag de-
velopment of the remainder of SPA One and may requite that the
light rail transit is in operation to be feasible. The third SPA One
elementary schoollocared \veSt ofPaseo Ranchero will be consuucred
during Phase 7-.5.. depending upon the absorption and student popu-
lation associated with the build-out of SPA One homes.

316 SF units in Village Five West. It also includes a multifamily
P"rcel (R-46). a CPF parcel. school site and Park Parcel P-6.6 in
Villa~ Five West. Althouih these public facility sites are within the
Ph..e 1 boundary. the timing of construction of these public &cili-

Phase 2
This Ph.<e includes all of Village Five West located south of &<t
p.lomar Street. includiJ\i the commercial. p"rk. CPF and multi-
family sites which define the vill\\fe core for Vill~ Five. This .rea
includes approximately 1.235 multifamily units. Development of
this area will be parti.lly dependent on development prQgress in
other areas which will provide the population necessary to s\IPport
commercial .nd CPF activities in the core.
Development of the multifamily units will be determined by rnar-
leet dem.nd. Multifamily development may occur over an extended
period of time. even l'lfiiqg siqrle family development in other
