INTRODUCTION
On February 14, 2017, the Applicant submitted Design Review and Conditional Use Permit
(CUP) applications for approval of the above-referenced apartment project. The site is currently
vacant (see Locator Map, Attachment 1). This CUP is being processed in accordance with the
provisions of Chapter 19.90 of the Chula Vista Municipal Code (CVMC) to allow for senior 62+
age-restricted housing and reduced parking.
PUBLIC INPUT
Staff received a letter dated April 3, 2017 from Mr. Todd Voorhees who resides at 150 Landis
Avenue on
located within the single family R-1 Zone across Landis Avenue to the west of the project site.
The letter was a response to the Notice of Application on the project that was sent out on
Planning Commission
August 22, 2018
Page No. 2
March 14, 2017. The letter included 9 signatures from Mr. Voorhees and other residents within
the R-1 Zone expressing concern about the proposed project. The concerns were two-fold; the
permanent, long-term impacts to traffic and parking within the neighborhood; and the temporary
impacts associated with construction activities.
On May 15, 2017 staff facilitated a community meeting at the Civic Center Library in response
to the concerns expressed by Mr. Voorhees. There were approximately four residents from
Landis Avenue, the applicant Mr. Chip Crandall, and several city staff in attendance at the
meeting. Mr. Crandall was able to present the particulars of the project and answer questions.
On March 8, 2018 Mr. Voorhees sent an email to Stan Donn, Senior Planner, reiterating the
concerns previously expressed above. Staff prepared a response to the issues raised by Mr.
Voorhees from the email. The response matrix is attached (see Attachment 4).
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The Development Services Director has reviewed the proposed project for compliance with the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined that the proposed project was
adequately covered in the previously adopted Urban Core Specific Plan Final Environmental
Impact Report and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program FEIR06-01, certified by the
Chula Vista City Council in May 2007 and, as well, qualifies for a Categorical Exemption
pursuant to Section 15332 of the State CEQA Guidelines. Thus, no further environmental
review is required.
RECOMMENDATION:
That the Planning Commission adopt Resolutions DR17-0007 and CUP17-0004 approving the
project, based on the findings and subject to the conditions contained therein.
DISCUSSION:
Project Site Characteristics:
The 0.91-acre project site is located in the western portion of Chula Vista. Currently, the site is
vacant. The site is surrounded by a senior housing facility to the east, single family homes to the
west, commercial to the south, and apartments to the north (Attachment 1, Locator Map).

Project Description
The proposal includes a three-story building totaling 37,780 square-feet in floor area, and
includes four different floorplan types with studio and one-bedroom units, for a total of 58
apartment units. All 58 units are limited to 62+ age-restricted seniors. The floor plans, consisting
of 31 studio units and 27-one bedroom units are sized at approximately 448 square-feet to 563
square-feet for each unit. The proposed floor plans include a small kitchen, living room,
bathroom, and bedroom. The First floor plan design provides for a front main entry located off of
an open semi-landscaped area. Patios are provided for all units on the first floor and balconies
are provided for all units on the upper floors.
Architecture
The California eclectic style of the three-story building incorporates textural materials to match
the adjacent neighborhood residential architectural finishes. The exterior wall is predominantly
mixed with evenly-spaced fiber-cement horizontal siding painted a
complimentary brown earth tone, accented with exterior fascia, rectangular window and door
frames that are factory painted a deep blue color. Multiple upper balcony, patio wood railings
and fences are stained and sealed a natural wood color. Several wood trellis structures with stone
columns along the west elevation facing Landis Avenue provide additional interest and break up
the structural massing. Concrete walkways have a standard broom finish with a traditional cold
joint pattern, for ease of accessibility in this senior dwelling facility. Other materials include a
sloped hip-roof finish with a dark grey-black composition shingle roof pattern.
Additionally, an attached one-
with repetitive commercial type windows, side storefront door systems, with a dark brown frame
color, painted corrugated metal horizontal siding and tile finishes. The flat roof over the
commercial design has parapet wall extensions to match the exterior finish mentioned above.
Amenities
Onsite amenities include pedestrian features such as a central planter in front of the main
entrance with bench seating surrounding the planter, a large outdoor patio area with tables and
chairs that allow for outdoor dining and passive use, decorative concrete paving along perimeter
walkways and main entrance, and landscaping throughout the site. Other open space areas are
provided in private balconies and patios and along the perimeter of the project site. Each unit is
provided with either a patio on the first floor or a balcony on the upper floors. An approximately
1,000 square- foot multi-purpose room is located at the east end of the building facing Third
Avenue. This multi-purpose space accommodates a fitness area and general purpose use, as a
compliment to the large outdoor common area patio. A walking path that leads to and from the
multi-purpose space surrounds the main building. An adjacent ADA bathroom and large storage
room serves the multi-purpose space and large outdoor patio.
Pedestrian/Vehicle Access
There are several pedestrian access ways on and off the site. The two main pedestrian links are
provided off of Landis Avenue and Third Avenue. Entry to residential units is through the main

ANALYSIS:
Compliance with Chula Vista Municipal Code and Urban Core Specific Design Guidelines
The City Council adopted the Urban Core Specific Plan (UCSP)
vision for the development of higher density, pedestrian-oriented projects and a broad range of
uses that serve the needs of adjacent residents, promote neighborhood activity, and are
compatible with adjacent neighborhoods. The adopted UCSP contains more focused objectives
and policies, as well as the required regulations and development standards to review and
evaluate develo
the area. The proposed project was reviewed and evaluated based on the General Plan objectives
idelines
contained in the Urban Core Village West District. Following is an analysis of the project based
on the applicable policies and standards of the UCSP.
Site Planning and Building Placement/Orientation
The Urban Core Specific Plan Design Guidelines promote an attractive and functional
Planning Commission
August 22, 2018
Page No. 5
arrangement of buildings and open spaces that are sensitive to the physical characteristics of the
site that provide a high standard of visual quality and livability for the residents. The guidelines
also promote neighborhood compatibility, site access, site design, siting and orientation,
setbacks, plaza and open space, and enhanced building elevations. The proposed features
throughout the site meet the Urban Core Specific Plan Design Guidelines as described below.
Site Planning
New infill buildings should reinforce the pedestrian-orientation of the Village by
providing storefronts next to the sidewalk and locating parking areas away from
the street.
Create continuous pedestrian activity along public sidewalks in an uninterrupted
sequence by minimizing gaps between buildings.
parking structureLocate rear parking lot and structure entries on side
streets or alleys in order to minimize pedestrian/vehicular conflicts
In accordance with the UCSP regulations, the residential component shall at a minimum meet the
private and common useable open space requirement of the V-3 Zone. The proposal includes an
attractive and functional arrangement of the building located along the property lines that offers
two main access points to the property, a singular main building entry and patio/balconies to
create a pedestrian friendly environment. The large outdoor patio area adjacent to the main
building entry provides several pedestrian features such as tables, chairs, and landscaping for the
residents to enjoy. The project also provides either a balcony or a patio for each tenant. A total of
200 square-feet of open space is required for each residential unit. A total of 11,600 square-feet
are required. The project meets and exceeds the required open space requirement, by providing
14,412 square-feet of open space for the residents.
The project also promotes neighborhood compatibility by placing the building furthest from the
existing commercial development located to the south of the project site. Patios and balconies are
placed away from the commercial use to provide privacy for the residents. The building is
located directly on the property line along Third Avenue to promote a pedestrian friendly
environment. The building is set back from the Landis Avenue property line to respect the
residential fabric of the Landis Avenue neighborhood. There are two main pedestrian access
points off Third Avenue and Landis Avenue.
While pedestrian access is a design feature in the UCSP, vehicular access is also important in
order to offer a variety of ways to access different areas. Dispersion of automobile traffic also
has the effect of making areas more pedestrian friendly as cars and pedestrians have less direct
interaction. The project provides two vehicular access points to the site from Third Avenue and
Landis Avenue. The project provides for all of the required parking on-site, while additional
(non-required) 27 parking spaces are also available on Landis Avenue and Third Avenue.
Planning Commission
August 22, 2018

Building Design
The Urban Core Specific Plan Design Guidelines promote a cohesive architectural theme and
building characteristics that provide architectural unity. Buildings should be designed to facilitate
pedestrian activity and should include architectural features that reflect the local vernacular and
are appropriate to the local climate.
Building Architecture
The design of an infill building in the Village, particularly its front facade,
should be influenced by historically significant facades on the street but should
not attempt to copy them.
Building facades should be detailed in such a way as to make them appear
smaller in scale. The smaller scale can be achieved through vertical and
horizontal articulation such as:
of the wall itself;
Or
awnings, and canopies.
The parchitecture is consistent with the policies of the Urban Core Specific Plan Design
Guidelines. The proposed modern style architecture includes light and dark colored stucco walls,
fiber-cement horizontal siding, natural wood, corrugated galvanized steel horizontal siding, and
balconies.
As indicated in the Development Standards table on Page 4 above, the project complies with all
development standards and regulations of the Specific Plan. The building has a maximum height
of 43 feet, which is less than the 84 feet maximum permitted by the UCSP. The building design
orients patios and balconies towards the street to provide for an urban environment. Landscaping
has been placed along the perimeter of the site and also around the parking lot area.
According to the Urban Core Specific Plan Design Guidelines, enhanced elevations should
include varying building elements, roof pitches, and setbacks to avoid monotony. In addition,
distinctive building elements shall be oriented toward the street intersection. Street facing
facades are required to incorporate a range of scale-defining elements that relate larger building
masses to the scale of the pedestrian. Elements may include trellises, columns, archways,
doorways, porches or patios and upper floor balconies and windows. For the proposed project,
additional design features such as, wood screens, brick siding, lap siding, and patio/balcony
areas, trellises, varying building facades and building offsets were added along the exterior
elevations to avoid a monotonous design.
Planning Commission
August 22, 2018
Page No. 7
Parking
As discussed herein, the proposed project is located within the northerly most portion of the
UCSP. The UCSP requires residential projects to provide 1.5 spaces for one bedroom units and
1 space for every 10 dwelling units. However, Section 65915(p)(3)(B) of the California State
Government Code stipulates 0.5 required parking space per unit 62+ for senior residential
projects. The required parking based on the unit mix is 29 spaces. Onsite parking consists of
open parking spaces within the parking lot fronting the building. The Applicant has proposed 35
spaces: 32 parking spaces for residents, 2 handicapped spaces, and 3 spaces for delivery and
leasing office. Additional (non-required) off-site parking spaces are available along Landis
Avenue and Third Avenue. A traffic and parking study was prepared and concluded that the
project provides adequate parking on-site and there is sufficient off-site parking available on
Landis Avenue and Third Avenue to serve the project. Additionally, the project is located within
a quarter mile distance from two bus stops on E Street (between Landis Ave and Third Ave)
serving two major Metropolitan Transit System Routes 705 and 929. It is anticipated this public
transit amenity will reduce the need for vehicle ownership at the project.
Conditional Use Permit
In accordance with the UCSP land use matrix, a CUP is required for senior housing
developments within the V3 Zone. The Applicant is requesting a CUPt to comply with the UCSP
requirement, including specific findings as stipulated in CVMC Section 19.14.080 .
The findings are contained within the attached Planning Commission Resolution for CUP17-
0004 (see Attachment 3). CVMC Section 19.19.040 Table F contains parking provisions
requirement of 1 parking space per unit of 0-1 bedroom for low, moderate, and senior housing
projects. However, CVMC Section 19.90.050(A) allows for parking requirement deviations in
accordance with State Government Code Section 65915(p)(3)(B) if the project is a 62+ age-
restricted senior project. According to State Government Code Section 65915(p)(3)(B) for-rent
housing development for individuals who are 62 years of age or older, the parking ratio shall not
exceed 0.5 spaces per unit. As described in the parking discussion on page 6 above, the required
parking is 29 spaces and the project proposes 35 spaces for this 62+ age-restricted senior
apartment rental housing project. The proposed uses on the site will result in a positive
contribution, in terms of providing senior-age restricted rental housing and services, and physical
improvements to the area.
To ensure that the project will be developed as a 62+ age-restricted senior housing development,
the applicant has been conditioned to provide proof a restrictive deed or recorded covenant for
the 62+ senior-age restricted 58-unit apartment prior to the issuance of a building permit.
Land Use Compatibility
The site is located adjacent to the R-3 multifamily zone to the north and east, and existing
commercial uses to the south fronting E Street. R-1 single family uses are located to the west.
The grade is flat in between the project site and the adjacent land uses. This CUP is in
compliance with the General Plan policy of providing adequate senior age-restricted residential
Planning Commission
August 22, 2018
Page No. 8
uses for the surrounding residents. The previous use was an automotive sales and repair shop.
The proposed residential use is appropriate for this site and allowed under the V-3 Zone.
Approval of the project requires compliance with all applicable codes and regulations, and all
conditions must be satisfied prior to the final building inspection or occupancy.
Noise
A Noise Analysis Report dated May 2, 2018, by dBF Associates was prepared to assess the
potential noise impacts of the project. The proposed senior apartment building is built along the
northerly property line, adjacent to an existing apartment complex. Single-family residential
homes are located to the west across Landis Avenue. The Noise Analysis Report found that the
proposed senior apartment building will be consistent with the City of Chula Vista Noise
Standards, and therefore, not impact adjacent properties.
Operational Profile
The Senior Apartment complex will operate as a senior apartment community. The only
requirement being the residents must be age-restricted 62+ for all 58 units. An on-site manager
will reside in one of the units at the property.
CONCLUSION
The proposed residential project with a three-story building totaling 37,780 square-feet
consisting of 58 senior apartment units is a permitted land use in the V-3 Zone. The proposal
complies with the policies, guidelines and design standards for the UCSP, CVMC Title 19 and
State Government Code. Therefore, staff recommends the Planning Commission approve Design
Review Permit, DR17-0007 and CUP17-0004 subject to the conditions listed in the attached
Resolutions.
DECISION-MAKER CONFLICTS
Staff has reviewed the property holdings of the Planning Commission members and has found no
property holdings within 500 feet of the boundaries of the property which is the subject of this
action. Consequently, this item does not present a disqualifying real property-related financial
conflict of interest under California Code of Regulations Title 2, section 18705.2(a)(11), for
pur et seq.).
Staff is not independently aware, and has not been informed by any Planning Commission
member, of any other fact that may constitute a basis for a decision maker conflict of interest in
this matter.
FISCAL IMPACT
The application fees and processing costs are borne by the Applicant, resulting in no net fiscal
impact to the General Fund or the Development Services Fund.

PC Resolution CUP17-0004
August 22, 2018

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Planning Commission of the City of
Chula Vista that it hereby makes the following Findings:
I. FINDINGS
1. That the proposed use at this 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.
This proposal will provide necessary senior-age restricted rental housing for the Chula Vista
community. The provision of a senior apartment complex in proximity to nearby residents
and retail commercial contributes to the general well-being of the neighborhood and
community. The site is located adjacent to existing apartments to the north and a senior
community to the east, and local-serving commercial to the south. The senior-age restricted
62+ apartment development provides additional rental housing and expanded variety of
housing types for people within this age group and contributes to the well-being of Chula
Vista.
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 proposed senior apartments will not result in any negative impacts to health, safety or
general welfare. The use will be subject to meeting all health, safety and general welfare
standards and regulations set forth by the City of Chula Vista. The apartment use is
consistent with the types of residential uses that are allowed within the V-3 zone in which
the Project is located. According to the noise study prepared for the Project, the proposed
use would
and Noise Control ordinance, and, therefore, will not cause any noise related impacts to
adjacent properties or be detrimental to the health, safety or general welfare of persons
residing or working in the vicinity, and will not be injurious to property or improvements in
the vicinity.
The traffic and parking study prepared for the Project evaluated the vehicular traffic and
parking from the proposed 58 senior apartment units and concluded that the Project provides
adequate parking on-site and there is sufficient (non-required) parking available on Landis
Avenue and Third Avenue to serve the Project. The traffic generated from the Project and
its distribution is below the established threshold for uses allowed in the V-3 zone and will
not be detrimental to the general welfare of persons residing in the vicinity.
3. That the proposed use will comply with the regulations and conditions specified in the
code for such use.
The proposed use is located in the V-3 Zone, which allows the operation of senior apartment
housing, subject to issuance of a Conditional Use Permit. The senior apartment will comply
with required development and operating regulations, including setback standards and
PC Resolution CUP17-0004
August 22, 2018
Page 3
parking requirements contained in the Chula Vista Municipal Code (Municipal Code) and
State Government Code for parking standards.
4. That the granting of the Conditional Use Permit will not adversely affect the General
Plan of the City, or the adopted plan of any government agency.
The Project Site is designated Mixed Use Residential and zoned for V-3 zone uses in the
2005 General Plan. The operation of a senior-age restricted apartment housing use at this
location is consistent with the stated policies of the General Plan. This Conditional Use
Permit is in compliance with the General Plan policy of providing adequate residential uses
within all areas of the city. Therefore, the use, as proposed, is consistent with the General
Plan and the V-3 zone.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Planning Commission, based on the Findings
above, hereby approves the Conditional Use Permit subject to the following conditions:
II. The following shall be accomplished to the satisfaction of the Director of Development
Services, or designee, prior to issuance of building permits, unless otherwise specified:

3. An on-site manager shall reside at the property on a full time basis.
III. The following on-going conditions shall apply to the Project Site as long as it relies on
this approval:

Additionally, providing only 35 parking
