AND MOLLER OTAY LAKES INVESTMENT, LLC
WHEREAS, Lakeview I, LLC, a California limited liability company, Lakeview II, LLC,
a California limited liability company, and Moller Otay Lakes Investment, LLC, a Delaware
limited liability company (Owners) propose the development of Otay Ranch Village 13 (Project)
located in the unincorporated area of the County of San Diego; and
WHEREAS, the Project would implement a master-planned community consisting of
residential uses, commercial uses, an elementary school, a fire station and a Village Core
connected through a system of roadways, public parks, trails, open space, and private recreational
amenities. The Project also would include conveyance of approximately 787 acres of land (1.188
acres for every developed acre) to the Otay Ranch Resource Management Plan (RMP) Preserve.
The Project is located within unincorporated San Diego County (County), approximately 0.25
miles east of the Chula Vista city limits. The Project area encompasses approximately 1,869 acres
and is located primarily northeast of Otay Lakes Road; and
WHEREAS, the Project is part of the approximately 23,000-acre Otay Ranch General
Development Plan/Otay Subregional Plan jointly processed and approved by the County of San
Diego and City of Chula Vista in 1993; and
WHEREAS, the City of Chula Vista and Owners have identified areas where residents of
the project residing in the County may benefit from facilities provided by the City; and
WHEREAS, the City of Chula Vista and Owners wish to address these concerns
proactively and resolve any issues between the parties prior to the County’s consideration of the
Project’s final approval; and
WHEREAS, owners have agreed to the payment to the City of a benefit contribution as
consideration to off-set any issues to City facilities caused by these future benefits to the Project’s
residents; and
WHEREAS, the Director of Development Services has reviewed the proposed activity for
compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined that the
activity is not a “Project” as defined under Section 15378 of the State CEQA Guidelines because
it will not result in a physical change in the environment; therefore, pursuant to Section 15060(c)(3)
of the State CEQA Guidelines, the activity is not subject to CEQA. In addition, notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Director of Development Services has also determined that the activity qualifies
for an Exemption pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA State Guidelines because there is
no possibility that the activity in question will have a significant effect on the environment. Thus,
no environmental review is required.
