VILLAGE 8 EAST SECTIONAL PLANNING AREA PLAN
SUPPLEMENTAL PUBLIC FACILITIES FINANCE PLAN
Page 1 April 2024
I. OVERVIEW
The Village 8 (Village 8 West and Village 8 East) portion of Otay Ranch (“Project Area”)
was originally entitled when the Otay Ranch General Development Plan (“GDP”)/Otay
Subregional Plan (“SRP”) was adopted by the Chula Vista City Council and San Diego
County Board of Supervisors in 1993. The Village 8 East Sectional Planning Area (2014
SPA) Plan, Public Facilities Financing Plan (“2014 PFFP”) and Village 8 East Tentative
Map (CVT No. 13-03) were approved by the Chula Vista City Council on December 14,
2014. The Chula Vista City Council also certified the Final Environmental Impact Report
(13-01; November 2014) (“FEIR”), which contains a comprehensive disclosure and
analysis of potential environmental effects associated with implementation of Village 8
East.
A subsequent amendment to the 2014 SPA Plan was approved on February 18, 2020 (City
Council Resolution No. 2020-036) (“2020 SPA Plan”), which authorized the transfer of
284 multi-family units from Village Eight East to Otay Ranch Village Eight West (“Village
Eight West”), reducing the total number of units authorized in Village Eight East from
3,560 to 3,2761.
This Supplemental Public Facility Finance Plan (“2024 PFFP”) addresses changes to the
public facility needs associated with the Village 8 East SPA Plan Amendment (“2024
SPA”) proposed by HomeFed Otay Land II, LLC (“Applicant”). The Applicant prepared
an Addendum to FEIR 13-03 for the Proposed Project, as well as technical memos and
reports that address the proposed changes to the Village 8 East.
The 2014 PFFP was prepared consistent with the requirements of the Chula Vista Growth
Management Program and Chapter 9, Growth Management of the Otay Ranch General
Development Plan. The preparation of the 2024 PFFP is required in conjunction with the
preparation of the SPA Plan Amendment for the Proposed Project to ensure that the phased
development of the Proposed Project is consistent with the overall goals and policies of the
City of Chula General Plan (“CVGP”) and the Otay Ranch GDP, which may be amended
from time to time to ensure that the development of the Proposed Project will not adversely
impact City public facilities and services. In 2022, the Chula Vista City Council repealed
the Growth Management Ordinance, as such, there are no longer threshold standards. This
2024 PFFP meets the Otay Ranch GDP policy objectives.
This 2024 PFFP is based on the phasing and information presented in the Otay Ranch GDP,
CVGP and Village 8 East SPA Amendments, dated April 2024. The Applicant prepared
technical analyses to determine whether the proposed amendments resulted in any changes
1 The 2014 PFFP was not updated in conjunction with the 2020 SPA Plan Amendment because the
amendment reduced the total authorized units within Village 8 East and therefore the overall project impacts
were correspondingly reduced and all FEIR mitigation measures remained applicable. The 2014 PFFP is
referenced herein.
VILLAGE 8 EAST SECTIONAL PLANNING AREA PLAN
SUPPLEMENTAL PUBLIC FACILITIES FINANCE PLAN
Page 2 April 2024
to financing, constructing or maintaining public facilities within Village 8 East. The
Applicant-prepared technical analyses for the Proposed Project which are relevant to the
2024 PFFP are discussed further below and include the following:
• TM Drainage Study for Otay Ranch-Village 8 East prepared by Hunsaker and
Associates, 2023
• PDP SWQMP for Otay Ranch Village 8 East prepared by Hunsaker and
Associates, 2023
• Otay Ranch Village 8 East Trip Generation Review and Project Information Form
prepared by Chen-Ryan, 2023
• Otay Ranch 8 East SPA Amendment Water Evaluation prepared by Dexter Wilson
Engineering, Inc, 2023
• Otay Ranch Village 8 East SPA Amendment Sewer Evaluation prepared by Dexter
Wilson Engineering, Inc, 2023
• Village 8 East – Fiscal Impact Summary Report, Development Planning &
Financing Group, 2024
These technical analyses supplement the technical reports associated with the 2014 Project
approvals and 2014 PFFP and demonstrate that proposed changes to the Proposed Project
do not result in changes to Mitigation Measures, Conditions of Approval or Thresholds
established in the 2014 PFFP.
II. PURPOSE
Preparation of a Public Facilities Finance Plan is required by Chula Vista Municipal Code
(“CVMC”) Chapter 19.92. The purpose of the PFFP is to establish compliance
mechanisms and standards to ensure public facilities, infrastructure and services will exist,
or concurrently be provided, to meet the demands of infrastructure and climate protection
generated by new development. Similarly, amendments to a SPA Plan require an
amendment or supplement to the PFFP. The purpose of this Supplemental PFFP is to
update and clarify the adopted 2014 PFFP to address changes to the Project.
In the City of Chula Vista, the PFFP is intended to ensure adequate levels of service are
achieved for all public services and facilities impacted by a project. It is understood that
assumed growth projections and related public facilities needs are subject to several
external factors, such as the local economy, the City’s future land use approval decisions,
etc. It is also understood that funding sources specified herein may change due to financing
programs available in the future or requirements of either state or federal laws. It is
intended that revisions to cost estimates and funding programs be handled as administrative
revisions whereas revisions to the facilities-driven growth phases are accomplished
through an update process via an amendment or supplement to the PFFP.

III. LAND USE ASSUMPTIONS
This 2024 PFFP supplements the Village 8 East PFFP adopted on December 2, 2014. The
Proposed Project includes amendments to the Chula Vista General Plan, Otay Ranch GDP
and Village 8 East SPA Plan and also includes Village 8 East Tentative Map CVT No. 22-
0005. In 2020, the Chula Vista City Council approved the transfer of 284 multi-family
units from Village 8 East to Village 8 West by Resolution No. 2020-033. This approved
intensity transfer resulted in a reduction in the authorized residential dwelling units within
Village 8 East from 3,560 to 3,276.
A. Village 8 East Proposed Land Use Plan
The Proposed Project’s land use plan would allow for the construction of 3,276 multiple-
family units (of which 1,348 are planned in a Village Core setting), 11.3 acres for a school;
a 1.2 acre Community Purpose Facility (“CPF”) site; 73.2 acres of public parkland; 16.4
acres of open space/basins, 253.6 acres of preserve open space land and 20,000 SF of
commercial/retail uses in the Village Core area. The Proposed Project would extend Main
Street in its current alignment, includes a minor realignment of La Media Road,
maintains La Palmita Drive in its approximately alignment , and modifies the alignment
and classifications of internal village streets. See the Proposed Exhibit 1: Proposed
Village 8 East Site Utilization Plan and Table 1: Proposed Village 8 East Site
Utilization Table.
In order to address the changes related to the proposed land use plan, several assumptions
were made. These assumptions play a role in determining public facility needs and phasing
of those facilities and are summarized below.
• Maintain a total of 3,276 authorized units within Village 8 East.
• Reconfigure the mixed-use area and designate the Village Core.
• Realign the former pedestrian bridge, designate it a Multi-Modal Bridge to
accommodate Neighborhood Electric Vehicles (“NEV”), bicycles and pedestrians
and expand the width to 17 feet.
• Eliminate the traditional single-family lots and introduce new, innovative attached
and detached residential projects with revised residential densities to reflect the
current market conditions.
• Modify the eastern edge of Village 8 East to accommodate the SR-125 couplet
interchange design between Main Street and La Media Parkway.
• Update the pedestrian, bicycle and NEV circulation network to improve
connectivity between Village 8 East and Village 8 West
The 2024 land use plan will create a viable mixed-use Village Core that will create a strong
sense of place for the residents of Village 8 East and surrounding communities and meet
the market demand for a wider variety of multi-family housing types and retail uses. Table

Notes:
1 Estimated Units are provided for planning purposes only, do not represent the final unit
allocation for each parcel and shall not be used to limit or restrict the final units allocated to
any parcel.; The final unit allocation must remain consistent with the permitted density range
applicable to the parcel. The final unit allocation shall be determined during Design Review
and shall be documented in the Unit Tracking Table (Village 8 East SPA Plan, Attachment 1).
Revisions to the Site Utilization Table shall not be required based on changes to the Estimated
Units presented herein.
2 Final acreage information to be determined during final engineering. Acreage may vary due
to rounding. Residential and Village Core gross acreage includes approximately 15.3 of
perimeter open space areas. Open space easements shall be recorded over perimeter open
space slopes to be maintained by the Master HOA or a Sub-Association, as determined during
final design.
3 Estimated Density calculated based on gross parcel acreage. Final density to be determined
during Design Review.

Notes:
4 20,000 SF of commercial uses are authorized within Village 8 East. Commercial SF may be
developed within a single parcel designated VC or distributed among any parcel designated
VC (VC-1 through VC-7). The final distribution of commercial SF to be determined during
Design Review. The “Permitted Density Range” is not applicable to VC parcels with no
residential units.
5 VC-3B and VC-5 are anticipated to be developed with non-residential uses only, consistent
with the Village Core zoning district. The “Permitted Density Range” is not applicable to VC
parcels with no residential units.
6 Per the Land Offer Agreement (7/8/2014), the Village 8 East SPA Plan shall designate 4.0
acres of CPF land. The Applicant is proposing to meet a portion of the Village 8 East CPF
obligation by designating the 1.2-acre CPF-1 site as a private recreation facility. The
remaining 2.8 acre CPF obligation shall be addressed in a separate agreement between the
Applicant and the City of Chula Vista.
7 Both the Village 8 East SPA Plan and Tentative Map include the "Proposed” and “Alternative”
configuration and acreage for the S-1 School Site and P-1 Neighborhood Park. Either the
Proposed or Alternative may be implemented without the need for an amendme nt to the SPA
Plan or TM. If the proposed configuration is implemented, the S-1 site would be 10.0 acre (net)
and the P-1 park site would be 6.5 acre (net); however, if the alternative configuration is
implemented, the S-1 site would be 12.0 acres (net) an d the P-1 park site would be 4.6 acres
(net). The final neighborhood park acreage shall be addressed in a separate agreement between
the Applicant and the City of Chula Vista.
8 The S-1 school site has an underlying residential land use designation of High Residential. If
the site is not developed as a school site, then it shall be developed as residential; however, if
the site is developed as an elementary school, then the 264 units may be reallocated to another
Village 8 East parcel or transferred to another village, as permitted in the Village 8 East PC
District Regulations, Chapter 10, Implementation.
9 A portion of the Edge Trail and associated overlook features (approximately 1.76 acres) are
included within the 8.2-acre OS-7 parcel. The Edge Trail area shall be secured with a public
access easement and the 1.76 acres shall satisfy a portion of the Village 8 East park obligation.
The 1.76-acre Edge Trail area is not counted toward meeting the Village 8 East open space
requirement.
10 Village 8 East acreage adjusted from approved 2014 development area to reflect changes in
SR-125 ROW and to facilitate the future SR-125 ROW Decertification process.

IV. FACILITY ANALYSIS
The following section presents updated public facility information for traffic, police, fire
and emergency services, schools, libraries, parks, trails & open space, water, sewer,
drainage, air quality, civic center, corporate yard and other public facilities. The fiscal
analysis prepared for the proposed project is also discussed below.
A. Traffic
The circulation element roadways serving the Proposed Project includes Main Street
and Otay Valley Road. The Main Street alignment would remain consistent with the
2020 SPA Plan; however, the proposed project would include modifications to the
pedestrian and bicycle improvements along Main Street . La Media Parkway would be
realigned to the north to facilitate the SR-125 couplet/parallel street system interchange
design between Main Street and La Media Parkway . The La Media Parkway
improvements have been modified to provide a transition between Village 8 West and
Village 8 East. In addition , with the exception of the main spine road (La Palmita
Drive), the 2024 SPA Plan and TM include mino r alignment changes to internal streets.
Table 3: Street Classification Recommendations provides the backbone street
classifications analyzed in the FEIR vs. the proposed backbone street classifications.

SUPPLEMENTAL PUBLIC FACILITIES FINANCE PLAN
Page 11 April 2024
Table 3: Street Classification Recommendations
VILLAGE 8 EAST SECTIONAL PLANNING AREA PLAN
SUPPLEMENTAL PUBLIC FACILITIES FINANCE PLAN
Page 12 April 2024
The Village 8 East circulation plans are depicted in Exhibit 3A: Proposed Vehicular
Circulation Plan and Exhibit 3B: Proposed Neighborhood Electric Vehicle
Circulation Plan . As part of the Proposed Project, the Applicant will be required to
secure and agree to construct all backbone roadway improvements shown on the
approved Village 8 East Tentative Map (CVT No. 22-0005) prior to approval of the
first Final Map within Village 8 East .
Chen Ryan prepared the Village 8 East –Comprehensive Project Information Form for
Transportation Studies (2023) to determine if the Proposed Project would generate
additional traffic impacts beyond those analyzed in the FEIR and associated Traffic Impact
Analysis. Chen Ryan determined that, based on the proposed land use changes within
Village 8 East, the Proposed Project would generate 4,000 fewer trips than were analyzed
in the FEIR.
In order to ensure that frontage and access can accommodate the Proposed Project, traffic
operational analyses were conducted at all project access points along Main Street and La
Media Parkway, as well as at internal backbone streets. Internal street classification
designations and traffic control and geometrics at key internal intersections and project
driveways were adjusted based on these analyses. The technical memorandum
documenting these analyses determined that internal streets analyzed would operate at LOS
C within the Village Core, as permitted in the GDP, and LOS B or better outside the Village
Core area. Refer to Exhibit 4: Village 8 East Street Names and Estimated Traffic
Volumes for additional details.
Because the Proposed Project would generate fewer trips (both daily and during the peak
hours) than were analyzed in the FEIR and the trip distribution patterns would generally
remain the same as those studied in the FEIR, it can be concluded that the Proposed Project
would add fewer trips to the surrounding transportation network, including all study area
roadways, intersections, and freeways. Fewer project-related trips to a roadway, an
intersection, or a freeway indicate less or equal potential traffic impacts. The Proposed
Project generates the same or lesser traffic impacts as identified in the 2014 PFFP. The
impacts identified in the FEIR remain applicable to the Proposed Project, and no additional
mitigation measures would be required. Therefore, the Proposed Project must comply with
the FEIR Mitigation Measures TCA-1 through TCA-18 and 20 identified in the 2014 PFFP,
IV. 6. Threshold Compliance and Requirements (2014 PFFP, Pages 40-45).

B. Police
The Proposed Project generates approximately the same demand for Police services as
identified in the 2014 PFFP. The impacts identified in the FEIR remain applicable to the
Proposed Project, and no additional mitigation measures would be required. Therefore, the
Proposed Project must comply with the FEIR Police Services Mitigation Measure PUB-3,
4, and 5 and the 2014 PFFP, V.7. Threshold Compliance and Requirements (2014 PFFP,
Page 50).
C. Fire and Emergency Services
The Proposed Project generates approximately the same demand for fire and medical
emergency services as identified in the 2014 PFFP. The impacts identified in the FEIR
remain applicable to the Proposed Project, and no additional mitigation measures would be
required. Therefore, the Proposed Project must comply with FEIR Fire and Emergency
Services Mitigation Measure PUB-1 and the 2014 PFFP, VI.7 Threshold Compliance and
Recommendations (2014 PFFP, Page 56).
VILLAGE 8 EAST SECTIONAL PLANNING AREA PLAN
SUPPLEMENTAL PUBLIC FACILITIES FINANCE PLAN
Page 17 April 2024
D. Schools
The Proposed Project includes a 11.3-acre school site, consistent with the 2020 SPA Plan5.
The 2014 PFFP estimated that 3,560 residential units would generate approximately 1,299
elementary school (K-6) students, approximately 250 middle school (7-8) students and
approximately 277 high school (9-12) students, for a total of 1,826 students.
Based on 2022 student generation information prepared by the Chula Vista Elementary
School District and Sweetwater Union High School District, the 2024 SPA Plan estimates
that the Proposed Project would generate approximately 820 elementary school (K-6)
students, approximately 220 middle school (7-8) students and approximately 593 high
school (9-12) students, for a total of 1,633 students. The impacts identified in the FEIR
remain applicable to the Proposed Project, and no additional mitigation measures would be
required. The Proposed Project must comply with the FEIR Schools Mitigation Measures
PUB-6 and PUB-7 and the 2014 PFFP VII.7 Threshold Compliance and Recommendations
(2014 PFFP, Page 64).
E. Libraries
The Proposed Project would implement the 3,276 authorized dwelling units within Village
8 East. The impacts identified in the FEIR remain applicable to the Proposed Project, and
no additional mitigation measures would be required. The Proposed Project must comply
with FEIR Library Mitigation Measures PUB-11 and PUB-12 and the 2014 PFFP, VII.7
Threshold Compliance and Recommendations (2014 PFFP, Page 68).
F. Parks, Trails and Open Space
The Proposed Project would implement the 3,276 authorized dwelling units within Village
8 East and modify the residential dwelling unit type authorized in the 2020 SPA Plan. The
2014 PFFP estimated that Village 8 East would be obligated to dedicate approximately
30.45 acres of parkland. The 2024 SPA Plan estimates that the Village 8 East parkland
dedication would be 26.5 acres. The Proposed Project includes a total of 42.8 (net) acres
of public parkland. The revised Parks, Recreation, Trails and Open Space Plan is provided
as Exhibit 5.
5 The Village 8 East Tentative Map includes an alternative configuration for the P -1 Neighborhood Park / S-
1 School Site that would reduce the P-1 Park to 4.6 acres (net) and increase the S-1 School Site to 12.0 acres
(net). The final figuration will be determined based on the needs of the Chula Vista Elementary School
District.

Development of Otay Ranch within the City of Chula Vista, results in a demand for
approximately 130.678 acres of park land, which includes 110.39 acres associated with
development of villages within HomeFed Corporation’s (HomeFed) ownership (includes
the 1.92-acre IOD recorded within the Otay Ranch Village 4 community park prior to
HomeFed’s acquisition of the property in 2016) and 20.28 acres of outstanding park land
from previously developed and future Otay Ranch villages. The following Table “Otay
Ranch Parkland Obligations & Planned Park Land” presents a comprehensive accounting
of park land obligations and planned park land.
Development of HomeFed’s Villages 3, 8 West, 8 East, 9 and 10, and the 1.92-acre IOD
which satisfied a portion of Village 2’s obligation, results in the obligation to provide
110.39 acres of park land. This is satisfied through adopted SPAs and TM that include
120.27 acres of planned park land including neighborhood parks within Villages 3, 8 West,
8 East, 9 and 10 (51.91 acres), 2.1 acres of public trails (Edge Trail) and community parks
planned in Villages 4, 8 West and 8 East (66.26 acres) and results in 9.88 acres of excess
park land within HomeFed’s ownership.
Villages 6 and 11 have met their corresponding parkland obligations through a combination
of park land dedication within the respective villages and payment of in-lieu Parkland
8 Excludes 40.4 acres currently reserved in the P-4 Community Park, as shown in the Villages 2, 3 and a
Portion of Village 4 SPA Plan and the neighborhood parks constructed within developed Otay Ranch Villages
1, 2, 5, 6, 7 and 11 and the Eastern Urban Center .

Acquisition and Development (PAD) fees, while Village 4 will be paying in-lieu PAD fees.
Assuming the park land obligations associated with full build out of HomeFed’s entitled
villages are met within planned neighborhood and community parks, there is a remaining
unmet obligation of 20.28 acres associated Villages 4, 6 and 11.

The impacts identified in the FEIR remain applicable to the Proposed Project, and no
additional mitigation measures would be required. The Proposed Project must comply with
FEIR Parks, Recreation, Open Space and Trails Mitigation Measures PUB-8 through 12
9 Based on approved SPA Plans and proposed Village 8 East SPA amendment.
10 HomeFed’s park acreage obligations are calculated assuming full buildout of all entitled units. Final park
land obligations may vary based on actual units constructed.
11 A 1.92-acre IOD was recorded within the Village 4 Community Park property when it was acquired by
HomeFed in 2016 and is included in the HomeFed subtotal.
12 After the HomeFed (108.47 AC) and Village 2 (1.92 AC) obligations are met, HomeFed has an
additional 9.88 net acres of excess community park land that may be acquired to satisfy the unmet
community park obligations of other previously developed or future Otay Ranch villages.

G. WATER
An Overview of Water Services was prepared by Dexter Wilson Engineering for the FEIR.
The Otay Ranch Village 8 East SPA Amendment Water Evaluation and Otay Ranch
Village 8 East SPA Amendment Water Conservation Evaluation Memos were prepared by
Dexter Wilson Engineering to supplement the prior evaluation based on the Proposed
Project. Table I.4 and Table I.5 below summarize the anticipated potable and recycled
water demand for the Proposed Project.
Table I.4 – Projected Potable Water Demands
(Update to 2014 PFFP, Page 91)
Land Use1 Quantity Demand Factor Total Demand (gpd)

Total — — 649,589
gpd = gallons per day; DU = dwelling units; ac = acre.
1 Internal and external circulation, open space preserve and future development areas are not calculated because
either no water demand is projected from these areas or these areas are not proposed for development at this
time.
2 The elementary school site has an underlying “High” residential land use designation that could accommodate
264 multi-family units if the site is not utilized as a school site. Average demand would decrease by 44,880
gpd to 14,280 gpd (10 net-acre school site x 1,428 gpd/acre = 14,280 gpd) if the site is utilized as a school
site.
3 Parks will be irrigated with recycled water, but nominal potable water use has been estimated for standard
fixtures (lavatories, drinking fountains, etc.)
The 2014 PFFP and associated Overview of Water Supply 14 projected potable water
demand at 1,049,039 gallons per day (gpd). Based on current potable water demand
factors, t he Proposed Project would decrease water demand to 649,589 gpd,
representing a decrease of 399,450 gpd, or approximately 38.1%. This decrease in
demand will not impact the proposed water line sizing for the Proposed Project since the
backbone water line sizing has been established based on regional needs in the area and
internal water line pipe sizing will be based primarily on fire flow requirements. See
Exhibit 7: Proposed Potable Water Facilities.
14 The water demand was updated after preparation of the PFFP. The table reflects the October 2014 Water Study
prepared by Dexter Wilson Engineering.

1 Open space preserve and future development areas are not calculated because either no water demand is
projected from these areas or they are not currently proposed for development.
2 Includes 15.3 acres of perimeter open space location within Residential and Village Core areas and 16.4
acres of Manufactured/Base Open Space (see Site Utilization Table in Attachment 1(. There are two
detention basins (8.2 acres total) located within the Manufactured/Basin Open Space areas that are excluded
from the Irrigated Open Space acreage total (15.3 + 16.4 acres – 8.2 acres = 23.5 acres).
3 The elementary school site has an underlying “High” residential land use designation that could
accommodate 264 multi-family units if the site is not utilized as a school site. Average recycled water
demand of 4,370 gpd is conservatively calculated based on school use. Average recycled water demand
would increase by 7,510 gpd to 11,880 gpd (264 units x 45 gpd/unit – 11,880 gpd) if the site is utilized as
a multi-family site.
The 2014 PFFP and associated Overview of Water Service projected recycled water
demand at 384,230 gallons per day (gpd). The Proposed Project would decrease recycled
water demand to 333,900 gpd, representing a 50,330 gpd (approximately 5.9%) decrease.
Landscape systems generally require a minimum of 80 psi at the meter to obtain adequate
coverage of landscape area. The primary criteria for sizing recycled water lines is the
ability to meet peak hour recycled water demands while maintaining a maximum pipeline
velocity of 8 feet per second. See Exhibit 8, Proposed Recycled Water Facilities, for the
recycled water system serving Village 8 East.
The impacts identified in the FEIR remain applicable to the Proposed Project, and no
additional mitigation measures would be required. The Proposed Project must comply with
FEIR Mitigation Measures UTL-1 to UTL-4 and 2014 PFFP, X.8 Threshold Compliance
and Recommendations (2014 PFFP, Pages 94-96).

H. SEWER
Dexter Wilson Engineering prepared a sewer evaluation for the FEIR. The Otay Ranch
Village 8 East SPA Amendment Sewer Evaluation Memo was prepared by Dexter Wilson
Engineering based on the Proposed Project to supplement the prior evaluation.

gpd = gallons per day; ac = acre.
1 Internal and external circulation, open space, open space preserve and future development areas are not
included in the calculation either because no sewer flow is protected or these areas are not proposed for
development at this time.
2 The elementary school site has an underlying “High” residential land use designation that could
accommodate 264 multi-family units if the site is not utilized as a school site. Average flow of 48,048 gpd
is conservatively calculated based on multi-family land use. Average flow would decrease to 11,810 (10.0
net-acre school site x 1,181 gpd/ac = 11,810 gpd) if the site is utilized as a school site.
The 2014 PFFP and associated Overview of Sewer Service projected wastewater
generation at 850,339 gpd. The projected wastewater flow for the Proposed Project is
700,077 gpd, representing a reduction of 150,262 gpd or 17.7% from the 2014 PFFP Sewer
System Analysis.
The impacts identified in the FEIR remain applicable to the Proposed Project, and no
additional mitigation measures would be required. The Proposed Project must comply with
FEIR Wastewater Mitigation Measures UTL-5 to UTL-7 and the 2014 PFFP, XI.8
Threshold Compliance and Recommendations (2014 PFFP, Pages 110-111).

I. DRAINAGE
A Drainage Study and a Storm Water Quality Management Plan (SWQMP) were
completed for the FEIR. To supplement those analyses, Hunsaker and Associates prepared
the TM Drainage Study for Otay Ranch-Village 8 East and PDP SWQMP for Otay Ranch
Village 8 East to address the Proposed Project.
The 2014 PFFP, Table K.1 identifies pre-Project flows of 872.2 cfs, consistent with the
FEIR analysis.

As identified in combined Tables K.2 and K.3, the Proposed Project would increase the
flow generated by a 100-year storm by 27.42 cfs compared to the FEIR. See Exhibit 10:
Basin and Drainage Plan for the drainage system serving Village 8 East.
The Proposed Project includes a detention basin and Modular Wetlands System located in
the southern portion of Village 8 East in the eastern portion of the P-2 park, designated OS-
6 on the Site Utilization Plan, adjacent to the Otay River. This basin is not subject to
hydromodification since it outlets directly to the Otay River which has been identified as
an exempted river reach.
The Proposed Project must comply with FEIR Hydrology and Water Quality Mitigation
Measures HYD-1 to HYD-7 and the 2014 PFFP, XII.7 Threshold Compliance (20014
PFFP, Pages 121-8 to 123). In addition, the Proposed Project would continue to comply
with all applicable rules and regulations including compliance with National Pollutant
VILLAGE 8 EAST SECTIONAL PLANNING AREA PLAN

J. AIR QUALITY
GHG emissions and global climate change were addressed in the FEIR, Section 5.4 Air
Quality. An Air Quality and GHG Technical Memo was prepared by Dudek to analyze the
Proposed Project. The proposed land uses would generate 3,977 fewer trips (11% less)
when compared to the land uses analyzed in the FEIR. The travel behavior of the remaining
land uses previously analyzed as part of the FEIR would be unchanged. As a result,
operational emissions (specifically those resulting from mobile sources) associated with
Village 8 East would be reduced as compared to the prior analysis. Construction emissions
would remain unchanged, because no change in the construction schedule or required
construction equipment is anticipated.
The impacts identified in the FEIR remain applicable to the Proposed Project, and no
additional mitigation measures would be required. The Proposed Project must comply with
FEIR Air Quality Mitigation Measures AQ-1 to AQ-3 and the 2014 PFFP, XIII.4 Threshold
Compliance and Recommendations (Pages 129 to 131)
K. CIVIC CENTER
Per the 2014 PFFP, there are no adopted Threshold Standards for the Civic Center. The
Public Facilities fee must be paid prior to the issuance of building permits, at the rate in
effect at the time payment is made.
L. CORPORATION YARD
Per the 2014 PFFP, there are no adopted Threshold Standards for the Corporation Yard.
The Public Facilities fee must be paid prior to the issuance of building permits, at the rate
in effect at the time payment is made.
M. OTHER PUBLIC FACILITIES
Per the 2014 PFFP, there are no adopted Threshold Standards for other facilities that are
part of the Public Facilities Development Impact Fee Program. The Public Facilities fee
must be paid prior to the issuance of building permits, at the rate in effect at the time
payment is made.
N. FISCAL ANALYSIS
Pursuant to the requirements in CVMC 19.09.040, Threshold Standards for City Facilities,
H. Fiscal, the Applicant prepared an updated fiscal analysis for the Proposed Project
(Village 8 East – Fiscal Impact Analysis, DPFG, April 2024. The fiscal update model
utilized the City of Chula Vista fiscal year ‘23/’24 model and assumed full build out of all
3,276 residential units and no commercial square footage which represents the most
conservative land use scenario. However, the Proposed Project includes development of
VILLAGE 8 EAST SECTIONAL PLANNING AREA PLAN
SUPPLEMENTAL PUBLIC FACILITIES FINANCE PLAN
Page 32 April 2024
20,000 SF of commercial uses; therefore, the anticipated fiscal outcome is more positive
than the following estimates. The results generated from the residential only fiscal model
meet the requirements of CVMC 19.09.040 and demonstrate that the Proposed Project will
generate a fiscal surplus in Years 1 - 20 ($452,114 - $33,573,827), representing cumulative
revenue of $48,014,928 through year 20.
The full fiscal analysis model and assumptions are provided in the Village 8 East SPA
Amendment Fiscal Summary Report dated April 2024. This report demonstrates that the
proposed project generates positive net revenue to the City of Chula Vista.
V. PUBLIC FACILITY FINANCING
The Proposed Project will finance public facilities by paying development impact fees or
constructing facilities required by subdivision exactions using private funding sources or
public facilities financing and, implementation of a future agreement between the
Applicant and the City regarding park development.
A. Development Impact Fee Programs
Per Chula Vista Municipal Code Section 3.42.101, the Chula Vista City Council must
adopt a fee schedule. The Proposed Project must comply with the City of Chula
Development Master Fee Schedule, Chapter 16. Development & In-Lieu Fees were last
revised October 2023 and are indexed each October 1. Per CVMC Section 3.42.101, the
Proposed Project must comply with the current version of the City of Chula Vista
Development Master Fee Schedule, Chapter 16 at the time fees are paid. Development &
In-Lieu Fees were last revised October 2023 and are indexed each October 1.
B. Subdivision Security
The Proposed Project will be developed in phases over several years. As public
improvements are complete, security provided for the Proposed Project in accordance with
the Subdivision Map Act and the Municipal Code should be reduced to reflect the
completed improvements. Accordingly, the process described herein will apply to bonds
for Grading and Drainage, Public Improvements, Habitat Restoration and Landscape and
Irrigation, but will not apply to Survey Monumentation bonds. Applicant may submit to
the City not more often than once every six months a detailed engineer’s estimate
identifying with respect to each bond the costs to complete the remaining improvements
secured by such bond (“Cost to Complete”). The City will review and approve or
disapprove the Costs to Complete, and if disapproved, Applicant may resubmit a modified
estimate of Cost to Complete for City review. Upon approval of the Costs to Complete by
the City, the amount of the applicable bond may be reduced to an amount equal to 110%
of the Costs to Complete. If approved by the City, the reduced amount will be
communicated to the bonding company in a letter. Based on the City’s communication,
the bonding company may issue a bond reduction rider to reduce the principal amount of
the bond to the reduced amount approved by the City. However, the bond amount may
VILLAGE 8 EAST SECTIONAL PLANNING AREA PLAN
SUPPLEMENTAL PUBLIC FACILITIES FINANCE PLAN
Page 33 April 2024
never be reduced by this process to less than 15% of the original estimate of the costs of
the applicable improvements.
