The Commission recognizes that for the past 20 years, the Third Avenue Village Association (TAVA) has overseen the regular maintenance and promotion of Chula Vista's central commercial district. TAVA is a 501 c6 non-profit organization, and as such, its strategic efforts downtown center around stimulating and sustaining customer demand while also building family-friendly programming that supports a more resilient local economy. Providing orderly and easily accessible public spaces for the community to gather around is a professed cornerstone of that over-arching strategy, and with this concept of a new central gathering place at Memorial Park, TAVA has expressed its hopes in encouraging more downtown-centric programming and events that will undoubtedly spur the local revitalization efforts following the COVID-19 pandemic. The Commission has received and reviewed a concept presentation by Third Avenue Village Association staff at the July 21 st, 2022, meeting, and based on the information provided then, Commissioners fully support the Third Avenue Village Association pursuing local grant resources to design a new public space adjacent to Third Avenue for the Chula Vista community to congregate and recreate.
