City of Chula Vista Planning Commission September 27, 2023 Agenda Page 4 of 93 September 27, 2023 ITEM TITLE Design Review (“DR”) of a mixed-use development consisting of 31, for rent, townhomes and a 1,085- square foot commercial building on a 1.8-acre site within the Mixed-Use (“MU”) zone of the Otay Ranch Village Two Sectional Planning Area (“SPA”). Location: Otay Ranch Village Two Parcel MU-1 (Santa Carolina Road and Santa Victoria Road) Environmental Notice: The Project was adequately covered in the previously adopted Final Second Tier Environmental Impact Report (“FEIR”) 02-02 for the Otay Ranch Villages Two, Three and a Portion of Four SPA Plan (SCH#2003091012), incorporated by reference in City Council Resolution No. 2014-207 on November 4, 2014. Recommended Action: Conduct a public hearing and adopt a resolution approving Design Review Permit No. DR22-0023 based upon the required findings and subject to the conditions contained therein. SUMMARY Baldwin & Sons, LLC (“Applicant”) requests approval to construct a mixed-use development on Parcel MU-1 of the Otay Ranch Village Two SPA, including 31, for rent, townhomes with associated amenities, parking, a commercial event venue, and landscaping (“Project”). The vacant 1.8-acre site is located just off the northeast corner of Santa Carolina Road and Santa Victoria Road (“Project Site”). ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The Director of Development Services has reviewed the Project for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) and determined that the Project was adequately covered in the previously adopted FEIR for the Otay Ranch Village Two SPA Plan (EIR 02-02; SCH#2003091012; and incorporated by reference in the certification of Final SEIR 12-01 by Resolution No. 2014-207 on November 4, 2014). Therefore, no further environmental review is required. HOUSING IMPACT STATEMENT The Project Site is within the MU zone of the Otay Ranch Village Two SPA, which allows commercial and residential uses. The proposed Project will increase housing supply in the Otay Ranch Village Two SPA by adding 31 for-rent townhomes. There are no affordable housing units provided within the Project. An Affordable Housing Agreement for Otay Ranch Village Two was executed on April 4, 2011 and recorded on February 1, 2012. Each individual developer’s affordable housing obligation is prorated based upon the total number of units to be constructed within that developer’s related ownership interest, and that obligation is satisfied as provided for in the Affordable Housing Agreement. This action does not include any changes to the applicable affordable housing requirements in Village Two. Page 5 of 93 City of Chula Vista Planning Commission September 27, 2023 Agenda Planning Commission Date: September 27, 2023 Page No. 2 DISCUSSION The proposed Project is consistent with the City of Chula Vista’s General Plan and compliant with Title 19 of the Chula Vista Municipal Code (“CVMC”), as well as the Otay Ranch Village Two SPA Plan. The proposed Project will provide the required minimum parking outlined in the SPA plan and landscaped areas complementing the design of the proposed buildings. Site amenities include an outdoor common area in the center of the site featuring tables and chairs, a raised planter and seat wall, and a walking path providing a connection – through the Project Site – from the adjacent site to the north and continuing to a future park to the south. The commercial event venue is situated in the southern central portion of the site, providing a transition from the outdoor common area to the future park site. Additional landscaping has been placed along the perimeter of the site and throughout the parking areas.

SETBACKS/HEIGHT PROPOSED: Street Setbacks 16 feet (Santa Victoria Road) 15 feet (Santa Carolina Road) Setbacks from Other Property Lines Between 11 feet and 18 feet Residential Height (maximum): 36 feet (building), 38 feet (features) Commercial Height (maximum): 22 feet (building), 34 feet (features) Design Review In accordance with CVMC section 19.14.582(A) and the Otay Ranch Village Two SPA Plan, Design Review is required for the Project. The following describes the Project’s consistency with the Otay Ranch Village Two SPA Design Plan and Master Precise Plan. Building Massing and Scale Variations in roof heights and form will provide visual interest and varying shadows. Wall planes are staggered to draw attention to entries and architectural features, which also create a horizontal building setback. Enhanced elevations are provided adjacent to street intersections and building entrances. To incorporate a smaller building mass at a pedestrian scale, street-facing facades are two stories, while three-story dwellings are located toward the center of the site. The commercial building has a large tower feature, which is a required landmark architectural element, and a vaulted ceiling within the event venue complements floor-to-ceiling windows and doors that open to the adjacent outdoor areas. Materials/Colors The proposed Project’s architecture is consistent with the standards outlined in the Otay Ranch Village Two SPA Design Plan and Master Precise Plan. The architecture of the proposed homes and commercial building follows a Santa Barbara-style design theme: light-colored cement plaster stucco with dark accent colors, tiled gable roofs, chimneys, clay tile pipes, decorative shutters and trim, and covered patios. Circulation, Site Access and Parking The Project Site can be accessed by pedestrians from Santa Victoria Road, Santa Carolina Road, and the future park site. Vehicular access follows the general shape of the Project Site, connecting Santa Victoria Road and Santa Carolina Road. Surface parking is provided in open parking spaces in the center of the site and on either side of the driveway. Each dwelling will include a two-car garage. Landscaping All areas of the Project Site not covered by structures, drives, parking, or hardscape will be appropriately landscaped. The proposed Project has been designed such that 16 percent of the gross site area is proposed to be landscaped; the Otay Ranch Village Two SPA and the City of Chula Vista Landscape Manual only require 15 percent to be landscaped. Proposed landscaping consists of a variety of trees, shrubs, and groundcover throughout the site. Trees line the street frontages and are also provided adjacent to and within the outdoor area and Page 7 of 93 City of Chula Vista Planning Commission September 27, 2023 Agenda Planning Commission Date: September 27, 2023 Page No. 4 parking areas, as well as along the front and rear of the proposed buildings. Trees are also provided in the front of the commercial building within the parking lot area. Exterior Lighting In compliance with applicable provisions of the SPA plan, exterior lighting is provided around the buildings and throughout the site to illuminate parking and pedestrian areas. All lighting will be directed downward and will be consistent with the City’s lighting policies. Waste Management The proposed location and size of the trash enclosures are consistent with the Recycling and Solid Waste Planning Manual. CONCLUSION The proposed Project complies with the policies, guidelines, and design standards outlined in the Otay Ranch Village Two SPA and CVMC Title 19. Staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve the proposed Project, subject to the conditions provided in the attached resolution. DECISIONMAKER CONFLICT Staff has reviewed the property holdings of the Planning Commission members and found no conflicting property holdings within 1,000 feet of the subject property’s boundaries. Consequently, this item does not present a disqualifying real property-related financial conflict of interest under California Code of Regulations Title 2, section 18705.2(a)(11) for purposes of the Political Reform Act (Cal. Gov’t Code § 87100, et seq.). Staff is not independently aware nor has been informed by any Planning Commission member of any other fact that may constitute a basis for a decisionmaker conflict of interest in this matter. FISCAL IMPACT There are no current year or ongoing fiscal impacts to the General Fund or Development Services Fund resulting from this action. All processing costs are borne by the Applicant.

Location: 740 Hilltop Drive (APN: 574-281-41) Environmental Notice: The Project qualifies for a Class 3 Categorical Exemption pursuant to section 15303 (New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures) of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) State Guidelines. Recommended Action: Conduct a public hearing and adopt a resolution approving Conditional Use Permit (CUP22-0044), based upon the required findings and subject to the conditions contained therein. SUMMARY AT&T Wireless (the “Applicant”) requests approval to install a wireless telecommunications facility (“WTF”) consisting of 12 panel antennas mounted on a 55-foot mono-broadleaf tree, in addition to an eight-foot concrete masonry unit (“CMU”) equipment enclosure (the “Project”), on a developed parcel located at 740 Hilltop Drive (the “Project Site”). The Project Site is on the west side of Hilltop Drive, between J Street and Telegraph Canyon Road (Attachment 1) and is owned by Hilltop Baptist Church of Chula Vista California, Inc. (the “Property Owner”). The Project Site is zoned Single-Family Residential (“R-1”) and designated Residential Low-Medium (“RLM”) in the General Plan. HOUSING IMPACT STATEMENT The Project Site is zoned R-1and is designated RLM in the General Plan, allowing residential uses. No housing is proposed as part of this Project; therefore, no additional housing units are proposed as a part of this project. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The Director of Development Services has reviewed the proposed Project for compliance with CEQA and determined that the Project qualifies for a Class 3 Categorical Exemption pursuant to section 15303 (New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures) of the CEQA Guidelines. No further environmental review is required. Page 49 of 93 City of Chula Vista Planning Commission September 27, 2023 Agenda P a g e | 2 DISCUSSION On December 29, 2022, the Applicant submitted a Conditional Use Permit (“CUP”) application for the proposed Project. In accordance with the Chula Vista Municipal Code (“CVMC”) Chapter 19.89 (Wireless Telecommunications Facilities), WTFs are allowed in any zone, subject to approval of a CUP. Facilities that exceed the height limit of the underlying zone require a stealth design and Planning Commission approval. The Project Site is zoned R-1, which has a maximum height limit of 28 feet. The proposed Project would exceed the maximum building height in the R-1 zone by 27 feet. Project Site Characteristics The Project Site is developed with a church and paved parking. Surrounding land uses are summarized in the table below: General Plan Zoning District Current Land Use Project Site Residential Low-Medium (RLM) Single-Family Residential (R-1) Hilltop Baptist Church North Residential Low-Medium (RLM) Single-Family Residential (R-1) Single-Family Residential South Parks and Recreation (PRK) Single-Family Residential (R-1) Park East Public/Quasi-Public (PQ) Single-Family Residential (R-1) Hilltop Middle School West Residential Low-Medium (RLM) Single-Family Residential (R-1) Single-Family Residential Project Description The Applicant proposes to install a new unmanned WTF in the southwestern portion of the property, consisting of 12 panel antennas mounted on a 55-foot freestanding structure designed to resemble a broadleaf tree. The facility also includes an eight-foot CMU enclosure for the ground equipment associated with the tower, which includes a metal security gate (Attachment 2). ANALYSIS The facility is at the minimum technologically feasible height possible in order to ensure adequate coverage to the target area. Propagation maps are included and referenced in the Project application to demonstrate the improvement in coverage tied to the additional height (Attachment 3). The proposed facility will be built to comply with the WTF ordinance’s development criteria and all other applicable City zoning and building regulations. Access to the site will be kept to a minimum and conducted in a manner that does not negatively impact the adjacent neighbors or existing church. Noise A noise analysis verified that noise impacts from the project site are expected to be adequately controlled. Page 50 of 93 City of Chula Vista Planning Commission September 27, 2023 Agenda P a g e | 3 Height, Stealth Technology, and Design The proposed facility will be placed in the southwestern portion of the property near established trees to blend in with the existing landscape and minimize visual impacts to adjoining properties. The antennas will be painted to match the mono-tree, and faux branches will obscure the antennas, effectively minimizing visibility of the facility, making the antennas as unobtrusive as possible with the most efficient technology. The Applicant acknowledges the development criteria established in CVMC Section 19.89.060 and will maintain a stealth design, including continued maintenance of the faux branches (Attachment 4). The proposed facility is designed to cover a large footprint in an area where user density can fluctuate as customers travel to and from the nearby schools and surrounding residential areas. The proposed antennas are selected to handle the potential user traffic and are as small as are available to meet the Applicant’s needs while being installed as closely together as feasible to avoid shadowing or interference. The equipment on-site will be compact and maintain minimum safety clearances between pieces of equipment. Collocation The Applicant searched diligently for collocation opportunities on existing towers within the area. The focus area targeted a location between two single-family homes near the intersection of Corte Maria Avenue and J Street. Several property owners were approached to enter a lease resulting in the current proposed location. Additionally, there is another wireless facility site located on the property, which furthers the goal of concentrating wireless facilities on a common site per CVMC Section 19.89.060(A)(3). The Project as proposed, is taller than a rooftop installation and will be able to accommodate additional antennas, should another wireless carrier wish to install at this location. Parking Displacement; Setbacks The location of the facilities will be in the southwesterly most part of the parcel, in an unimproved portion of the property; therefore, it will not displace any parking. The proposed facilities will be located not less than 33 feet from the rear yard setback, and not less than 67 feet from the side yard setback, meeting the requirements for the R-1 zone. CONCLUSION Staff has reviewed the Project and determined that it is consistent with the CVMC and the Chula Vista Design Manual. Staff recommends that the Planning Commission adopt the proposed resolution approving the Project, subject to the conditions contained therein (Attachment 5). DECISION-MAKER CONFLICT Staff has reviewed the property holdings of the Planning Commission members and found no property holdings within 1,000 feet of the boundaries of the property which is the subject of this action. Consequently, this item does not present a disqualifying real property-related financial conflict of interest under California Code of Regulations Title 2, section 18702.2(a)(7) or (8), for purposes of the Political Reform Act (Cal. Gov’t Code §87100, et seq.). Staff is not independently aware and has not been informed by any Planning Commission member of any other fact that may constitute a basis for a decision-maker conflict of interest in this matter.

That the proposed use at the particular location is necessary or desirable to provide a service or facility which will contribute to the general well-being of the neighborhood or the community. The proposed use will provide expanded wireless communication services to the Chula Vista community, including for individual residents and for maintenance and operation of public facilities. The proposed use will include facilities (i.e., a tower with antennas attached) that will exceed 28 feet in height; however, the proposed height is the only technologically feasible option for providing service to the area. The proposed use will improve and ensure the availability of wireless communication as a public convenience by providing essential communication and improved service in the surrounding area of its location. In the event of an emergency or natural disaster, the use will continue to function, which supports the general health, safety, and welfare of the citizens of Chula Vista. 2. That such use will not, under the circumstances of the particular case, be detrimental to the health, safety or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity, or injurious to property or improvements in the vicinity. To minimize the visual impacts of the use, the proposed facility and all associated equipment will be located in the southwestern portion of the Project Site and utilize a stealth design to be visually unobtrusive. The antennas will be painted to match the mono- tree, and faux branches will obscure the antennas. Existing mature trees which are of the same relative height as the proposed facility will aid in further blending the Project into the surrounding area. 3. That the proposed use will comply with the regulations and conditions specified in Title 19 of the CVMC for such use. As proposed, the use is compliant with the City’s applicable development criteria, particularly those outlined in CVMC Chapter 19.89, and all other City zoning regulations. 4. That the granting of this conditional use will not adversely affect the General Plan of the City or the adopted plan of any governmental agency. The integration of wireless facilities with existing uses is encouraged by the Public Facilities and Services Element of the General Plan, including Policy PFS 24.1, regarding the installation of state-of-the-art wireless facilities, and Policy PFS 24.2, regarding the review of new telecommunications facilities and utilizing siting and design techniques that minimize community impacts. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Planning Commission, based on the findings above, does hereby approve Conditional Use Permit CUP22-0044, subject to the following conditions. The following ongoing conditions shall apply to the Project Site for as long as it relies upon this approval: Page 77 of 93 City of Chula Vista Planning Commission September 27, 2023 Agenda PC Resolution No. 2023-14 September 27, 2023 Page 3 Planning 1.

The Applicant and Page 78 of 93 City of Chula Vista Planning Commission September 27, 2023 Agenda PC Resolution No. 2023-14 September 27, 2023 Page 4 Property Owner’s compliance with this provision is an express condition of this permit and shall be binding on any and all of the Applicant/operator’s successors and assigns. 7. The conditions of approval for this permit shall be applied to the Project Site until such time as the approval may be revoked, and the existence of this approval with conditions shall be recorded with the title of the property. 8. Any violations of the terms and conditions of this permit may result in the imposition of civil or criminal penalties and/or the revocation or modification of this permit. 9. This CUP shall become void and ineffective if not utilized within three (3) years from the effective date thereof (September 27, 2026), in accordance with CVMC section 19.14.260. Failure to comply with any conditions of approval shall cause this permit to be reviewed by the City for additional conditions or revocation. Landscape Architecture 10. The Applicant’s contractor shall ensure that any existing plant material noted within the area of construction or adjacent to the area of construction is protected in place and receives sufficient irrigation to flourish during construction. If any existing planting material experiences a decline in health as a result of construction activity, the contractor shall replace the existing material in kind to the satisfaction of the Director of Development Services. 11. The Applicant’s contractor shall ensure that any existing landscape irrigation within the area of construction or adjacent to the area of construction is protected in place.
