III. PREVIOUS SEIR 91-03 REVIEWED AND CONSIDERED; FINDINGS; APPROVALS
The City Council of the City of Chula Vista has previously reviewed, analyzed,
considered, and certified FSEIR 91-03, Salt Creek Ranch and Addendum.
IV. COMPLIANCE WITH CEQA
The Environmental Review Coordinator has determined that any impacts associated with
the proposed tentative subdivision map have been previously addressed by FSEIR 91-03, Salt
Creek Ranch and has, therefore, prepared an addendum to said FSEIR. The Tentative Map is in
substantial conformance with the conceptual tentative map and grading plans on which the
FSEIR analysis was based and, therefore, approval and implementation of the Tentative Map
does not change the basic conclusions of the FSEIR. The addendum has been prepared in
accordance with requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act, State Evironmental
Impact Report (EIR) Guidelines and the Environmental Review Procedures of the City of Chula
Vista.
V. INDEPENDENT JUDGMENT OF CITY COUNCIL
Resolution 2003-199
Page 3
The City Council finds that the addendum to FSEIR 91-03, reflects the independent
judgment of the City Council of the City of Chula Vista and hereby considers the addendum to
FSEIR 91-03, Salt Creek Ranch.
VI. TENTATIVE SUBDIVISION MAP FINDINGS
A. Pursuant to Government Code Section 66473.5 of the Subdivision Map Act, the
City Council finds that the amending Tentative Subdivision Map, as conditioned herein for
Rolling Hills Ranch Subarea III, Chula Vista Tract No. 92-02a, is in conformance with the
elements of the City's General Plan, based on the following:
1. Land Use
The Rolling Hills Subarea III Plan (Residential Neighborhoods 9-12)
provides for low density residential development with densities ranging between
1.05 and 2.0 dwelling units per acre. The project will provide for 425
single-family units. The project as conditioned, is in substantial compliance with
the amended Salt Creek Ranch GDP and SPA, and since the GDP and SPA are in
substantial conformance with the General Plan, the Tentative Map is also in
substantial conformance with the General Plan.
2. Circulation
All on-site and off-site streets required to serve the subdivision will be
constructed or Development Impact Fees (DIF) paid by the developer.
The public streets within the Project will be sized as prescribed in the
circulation element of the General Plan and designed per City design standards
and/ or requirements, or modifications accepted by the City Engineer. The
required and anticipated off-site improvements would be designed to handle this
Project and future projects in the area.
3. Housing
The applicant has entered into an agreement with the City to provide for
required low and moderate income housing and in currenily ahead of schedule in
terms of meeting the conditions of this agreement.
4. Conservation
The Environmental Impact Report SEIR 91-03 and Addendum addresses
the goals and policies of the Conservation Element of the General Plan and found
the development of this site to be consistent with these goals and policies. In
addition, subarea III boundaries and densities have been modified to specifically
comply with the requirements of the Multiple Species Conservation Plan (MSCP)
being adopted concurrently.
5. Parks and Recreation, Open Space
Subarea III is a portion of the overall Salt Creek Ranch Development
which will provide a 29 acre (gross) community park, a 7.3 acre (gross)
neighborhood park and the payment of pad fees or additional improvements as
I
Resolution 2003-199
Page 4
approved by the Director of Building and Park Construction. In addition,
equestrian and recreational trail systems will be provided throughout the project,
ultimately connecting with other open space areas and trail systems in the region
including the Chula Vista City-wide "Greenbelt" trail.
6. Seismic Safety
The proposed subdivision is in conformance with the goals and policies of
the Seismic Element of the General Plan for this site.
7. Safety
The Fire Depa,haent and other emergency service agencies have reviewed
the proposed subdivision for conformance with City safety policies and have
determined that the proposal meets the City Threshold Standards for emergency
services.
8. Noise
Noise mitigation measures included in the Environmental Impact Report
FSIER 91-03 and Addendum adequately address the noise policy of the General
Plan. The project has been conditioned to require that all dwelling units be
designed to preclude interior noise levels of 45 dBA and exterior noise exposure
over 65 dBA for all outside private patio areas.
9. Scenic Highway
The Subarea III portion of the Rolling Hills Ranch project is located east
of the intersection of Hunte Parkway and East H Street. The portion of Proctor
Valley Road adjacent to Subarea III, which serves the eastward extension of east
H Street is not delineated as a scenic highway within the Land Use Element of the
General Plan.
10. Bicycle Routes
Although no designated regional off-street bicycle routes are included as
components of the internal circulation network, bicyclists will be readily able to
sham the internal streets with motor vehicles due to low traffic volume and
limited speeds allowed. Bicycle route segments to connect to regional systems
have been incorporated as prescribed by the Circulation Element of the General
Plan. On-stmet bike lanes are included on the adjacent arterial highways. The
bike lanes will be paved components of the street systems indicated.
11. Public Buildings
No public buildings are proposed on the project site. The project is
subject to Residential Construction Tax (RCT) fees prior to issuance of building
permits.
B. Pursuant to Section 66412.3 of the Subdivision Map Act, the Council certifies that
it has considered the effect of this proposal on the housing needs of the region and has
Resolution 2003-199
Page 5
balanced those needs against the public service needs of the residents of the City and the
available fiscal and environmental resources.
C. The configuration, orientation and topography of the site partially allows for the
optimum setting of lots for passive or natural heating and cooling opportunities as
required by Government Code Section 66473.1.
D. The site is physically suited for residential developmem and the proposal
conforms to all standards established by the City for such project.
E. The conditions heroin imposed on the grant of permit or other entitlement herein
contained is approximately proportional both in nature and extend to the impact created
by the proposed development.

subject to the general and special conditions set forth below.
