CHULA VISTA ACCEPTING A PRELIMINARY
CONCEPTUAL RIGHT-OF-WAY IMPROVEMENT PLAN FOR
F STREET FROM ITS INTERSECTION WITH FOURTH
AVENUE TO ITS TERMINUS AT THE BAYFRONT AND
DIRECTING STAFF TO INCORPORATE THE PROPOSAL IN
FUTURE PLANNING DOCUMENTS FOR FINAL CITY
COUNCIL CONSIDERATION
WHEREAS, as part of construction of the new Police Facility and the impending start of
construction of the renovations to the Civic Center, the adjoining streets, particularly Fourth
Avenue and F Street will be enhanced within the project areas with new paving and new or
enhanced landscaping; and
WHEREAS, the project architect for the Police Facility and Civic Center Complex
Renovation, Carder Johnson, agrees to donate some of its resources to develop a preliminary
conceptual plan or strategy to make futme improvements to the F Street right-of-way corridor;
and
WHEREAS, the F Street corridor is a particularly challenging street as the right-of-way
and actual width of the street varies throughout the study area; and
WHEREAS, offers great opportunities for improvement, particularly from a
non-vehicular perspective; and
WHEREAS, as them am no off-ramps servicing F Street from Interstate 5, the street will
act as more of a local connector from the downtown area to the Bayfront as opposed to the more
arterial or regional connections that E Street and H Street provide; and
WHEREAS, F Street also offers a view of the San Diego Bay from several blocks inland
from Interstate 5 and this lack of regional vehicular traffic and more scenic potential lends F
Street to a more pedestrian and bicycle friendly environment; and
WHEREAS, F Street further offers a connection and cohesion from the Bayfront to the
downtown area that could provide significant redevelopmem opportunities along F Street; and
WHEREAS, City Council's action does not constitute approval of a project, but does
constitute a direction to staff to further study the project proposal as part of the City's current
comprehensive planning process.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Chula
Vista does hereby accept staff's submittal of a preliminary conceptual right-of-way improvement
plan for F Street from its intersection with Fourth Avenue to its terminus at the Bayfront and
direct staff to incorporate the proposal in future planning documents for final City Council
consideration.
