RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
CHULA VISTA APPROVING A REIMBURSEMENT
AGREEMENT WITH BODEGA LATINA CORPORATION,
DOING BUSINESS AS EL SUPER, FOR PUBLIC SEWER
INFRASTRUCTURE THROUGH THE PALOMAR GATEWAY
SHOPPING CENTER
WHEREAS, per City Council Resolution No. 2012-118, the City of Chula Vista entered
a Memoranda of Understanding (MOU) with SANDAG for the purpose of preparing an
environmental document that will consider project alternatives for grade-separating the Blue
Line Light Rail Trolley crossing at Palomar Street and commensurate improvements; and
WHEREAS, the project report has been completed and presented for adoption by City
Council on January 28, 2020; and
WHEREAS, several design alternatives were evaluated by the project team of Chula
Vista, SANDAG, and the railroad consultant HNTB; and
WHEREAS, the preferred project alternative, will keep the railroad tracks and Industrial
Blvd. at their current grade elevation and lower Palomar Street to pass under the railroad corridor
and Industrial Blvd. This alternative will construct a railroad/pedestrian bridge and
roadway/sidewalk bridge; and
WHEREAS, as the rail grade separation project report was progressing, the applicant for
the 4.76-acre vacant parcel at the southwest corner of Palomar Street/Industrial Blvd submitted
plans for a neighborhood shopping center; and
WHEREAS, the developer of the shopping center worked closely with project team
coordinating their design and building setbacks to complement the grade separations and
facilitate construction of each project independently; and
WHEREAS, the developer and project team collaborated on the public sewer main
currently located on Palomar Street along the frontage of the proposed Palomar Gateway
Shopping Center. This sewer main must be relocated through the shopping center parking lot
since Palomar Street will be lowered rendering the current gravity sewer system useless; and
WHEREAS, a public sewer reimbursement agreement that will compensate the shopping
center developer for the expenses incurred in relocating the public sewer has been prepared; and
WHEREAS, the total costs for eligible reimbursement expenses from the Sewer Service
Revenue Fund (414) are subject to approval by the City Engineer and are estimated at less than
$150,000; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission, at the meeting held on November 13, 2019,
approved the Design Review Permit for the Palomar Gateway Shopping Center.
