This item involves the consideration of the Olympic Training Center (OTC)
project which includes a SPA Plan and Public Facilities Financing Plan. This
project was part of the Eastlake II I General Development Pl an and Pl anned
Community pre-zoning adopted by the City Council on December 5, 1989.
The (OTC) SPA Plan consists of 150 acres of land with on-site dormitory
housing for 300-400 athletes. At buildout the OTC will provide housing for up
to 1,000 ath1 etes.
The Local Agency Formation Commission approved the annexation of Eastlake III
to the City of Chula Vista including the OTC site on January 8, 1990.
The county Chi ef Admi ni strative Offi cer sent a 1 etter to the Ci ty regarding
the OTC SPA P1 an whi ch sta ff has responded to wi th the attached reply
(Attachment B).
RECOMMENDATION: That Council:
1. Based upon the findings attached to this report (Attachment 1), adopt a
motion approving the Olympic Training Center Sectional Planning Area Plan
and Public Facilities Financing Plan subject to the Conditions of
Approval listed at the end of this report.
2. Wueste Road from Orange Avenue south to the County Park shall be given a
special designation per the Wueste Road Rural Recreation Access Route
attached (Exhibit "A"l.
BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: On April 11, 1990, the Planning
Commission recommended approval of the OTC project (6-0, 1 absent).
DISCUSSION:
1. Background
The Un! ted States Olympic Committee Executi ve Board se1 ected the proposal
from the San Diego National Sports Training Foundation on April 29, 1988
IS'"~ /

which contained seven sites within San Diego County that met the USOC
site selection subcommittee criteria.
On November 12, 1988, the United States Olympic Committee Executive Board
met in Minneapol is and designated the Eastlake property as the site of
choice for the Olympic Training Center.
This facility will become the third Olympic Training Center in the United
States and the only year round, warm weather, buil t from the ground up
training facility.
During the time leading up to the selection of the Eastlake site for the
OTC, the San Diego Sports Training Foundation examined over 30 sites
throughout San Diego County. The criteria for selection of a site
included size (minimum of 150 acres) good access, development
feasibility, transportation and proximity to schools, colleges, jobs, and
culture amenities.
2. Eastlake III Planned Community Zone Requirements
The planned community zone approved by the City Council on December 5,
1989 for Eastlake III requires the submission of a sectional planning
area plan to provide more detailed plans prior to actual development of
any portion of the Eastlake III site. The first SPA plan submitted for
the Olympic Training Center also includes an environmental impact report
and a public facilities financing plan. A precise plan will also be
required to govern the operation, use and design of the facility.
3. Project Description
The OTC SPA Plan is the long range master plan showing the full
development of the OTC as well as a supporting text that defines and
descri bes essenti al components and characteri sti cs of the master pl an.
The Public Facilities Financing Plan describes the public facilities that
will be constructed and a Fiscal Impact Analysis of the project.
4. Spa Pl an
The long range master plan of the Olympic Training Center can eventually
accommodate most recognized Olympic sports, however, the USOC has
desi gnated ni ne pri ority sports whi ch wi 11 recei ve fi rst ri ghts to use
the new facilities. These nine priority sports include archery,
athletics, canoe/l<.ayaking, cycl i ng, rowing, synchronized swimmi ng, team
handball, volleyball and waterpolo. In addition, push start facilities
for bobsledding and luge will also be included in the first phase as well
as fiel d hockey, soccer and tenni s facil iti es. Several other Olympi c
sports such as bi athl on, equestri an, fi gure skat! ng, ice hockey,
shooting, skiing and speedskating will remain at other sites in Colorado
Springs and Lake Placid.
Vehicular access to the Olympic Training Center will be provided via
Orange Avenue with secondary access from Hueste Road for resident
athletes, visiting athletes, medical and housekeeping staff. On site
/5'--;L
Page 3, Item I~
Meeting Date 5/1/90
circulation will be strictly limited. All on campus circulation will
revolve around a central north south spine which will serve as a
pedestri an path, as well as ci rcul ati on for on-si te tours and emergency
access. Each athletic training area will be marked along the pedestrian
path providing each sports training site with its own address.
t~ost of the athletic facilities will consist of outdoor fields, tracks
and other open areas. The indoor athletic facilities will consist of one
main gymnasium to be used for volleyball and team handball located west
of the visitors center. A second gym in this same general area is
planned for a future phase. Other structures include a boat house which
will be constructed at the edge of Lower Otay Lake Reservoi r on 1 and
leased from the City of San Diego. In addition a sWimming complex is
located at the north end of the pedestrian path including an Olympic 50
meter sWimming pool and diving pool to be shared by swimmers, waterpo10
players and synchronized swimmers. Later phases of the project will add
a second 50 meter pool.
Other support faci 1 iti es for the activities within the Olympic Training
Center include a Visitor Center, athlete housing (300-400 units or beds).
the Sports Medicine/Sports Science Faci1 ities which will consist of a
medical clinic as well as scientific testing facilities and weight rooms,
dining and recreation areas plus reception areas. meeting room facilities
and small office spaces for short term use by athletes and their coaches.
The Phase One l1aster Plan uses by acreage breakdown are as follows:
5. Vi sitors Center
Bui] dings
Roads
Parking
Open Space which consists of:
4.65 acres
3.1 g acres
7.29 acres
(a) outdoor athletic fields 34.52 acres
(b) general open space 98.32 acres
147.97 acres
It is expected that the Olympic Training Center will attract an estimated
424,000 visitors per year. This is an estimate based upon a percentage of
total visitors that visit the San Diego area each year plus a percentage
of local residents who could be expected to tour the facility. The Master
Plan for the Olympic Training Center will accommodate these visitors and
provide them with controlled access to view the OTC via a Visitors Center
and guided tours down the pedestrian path. The Visitors Center will
Page 4, Item IS;
Meeting Date 5/1/90
consist of approximately 37,000 square feet of space including a 200 seat
auditorium, restaurant, a gift store and a news media center. Visitors
will tour the Olympic Site via walking tours and/or mini bus tours and
they will also come to the site periodically as spectators attending
specific exhibitions and/or just simply watching the athletes train.
The Visitors Center is located in the northerly portion of the site where
off-street parking is provided immediately off of Orange Avenue. The
complex will include an auditorium which will show athletic and
inspirational films as well as administrative support offices. This
facility is located at the high point on the property so it will provide
visual access to the entire site. Small visitor overlooks are provided at
various points along the pedestrian path and these will include restroom
facilities as well as small concessions stands that may be used for
occasional competition and training events as needed. Grass seating areas
on gently sloping areas are provided at each of the training areas so that
spectators may sit and view the athletes performing during training and/or
exhibitions.
The Visitors Center will be approximately 60 feet in height and on the
floor will contain a United States map approximately 80 feet in length
east west and 60 feet in height in the north south direction. On this map
of the United States will be noted the approximately 2,000 Gold, Silver,
and Bronze U.S. 14edalists from past Olympic games. After each future
Olympaid, new medalists will have their names added to the map.
Although the primary purpose of the OTC is to provide training and support
to U.S. athletes, there will be small exhibitions and competitions which
will attract up to 3,000 spectators to the Center. Major tryouts and
competitions will be held at other off-site facilities such as San
Di ego/Jack Murphy Stadi um, Sports Arena, San Diego State University, UCSD
and other similar locations.
6. Traffic
Access to the OTC will be provided by the extension of Hunte Parkway and
Orange Avenue from Otay lakes Road. These roads will be constructed by
the Eastlake Development Company. T~/o poi nts of automobil e access to the
site will be from Orange Avenue for visitors and a secondary access off of
Wueste Road for athletes and support staff.
The traffic analysis indicates an extremely low volume of traffic expected
for Phase I consisting of 2,333 trips per day. About 50% of Phase I
traffic consists of visitors to the site. Buildout traffic is estimated
to be 4,937 trips with about 48% of buildout traffic devoted to visitors.
Most of the visitor trips will be automobiles, however 8 to 10 buses per
day wi 11 bring vi sitors to the facility. The athl etes share of total
trips at Phase I and buildout is estimated to be 10%.
7. Grading
Page 5, Item /s
Meeting Date 5/1/90
The grading concept for the property will maintain the north/south ridge
running the length (4000+) of the site which will be the location of the
pedestrian path. The atli'letic fields and other facilities will step down
from the ridge to maintain the basic landform. Elevation differences will
range from 20 ft. to 50 ft. between the athletic fields. The track and
field area will be graded to drain away from Lower Otay Reservoir and
discharge via an underground drain system to Salt Creek. Approximately
100 acres of the site naturally drains toward Salt Creek and 50 acres
drains toward Otay Reservoir.
8. Landscaping and Irrigation
l~le landscape concept plan contains various elements relating to the
functional areas of the facility. The practice fields will consist of
grass and special turf areas for athletic uses. Wildflowers, native
shrubs and meadow grass will provide informal ground cover for erosion
control and color. Garden areas around the residential dorms will contain
ornamental plantings and seating areas for the athletes use during free
time. Park and picnic areas will be 1 andscaped to accommodate 1 eisure
gatherings and passive recreation areas. The entry next to Orange Avenue
will have formal tree rows to define the entrance and to provide a gateway
to the Visitor Center. Perimeter planting will consist of dense trees and
shrubs for visual screening and wind deflection. The pedestrian path will
be marked with continuous rows of tall trees to define the ridgel ine.
Trees and other drought tolerant plants have been maximized to the
greatest extent possible in the landscape plan.
Reclaimed water from the Otay Municipal Water District will be used for
irrigation purposes wherever possible except on areas that potentially
could drain into Otay Reservoir. An 8" reclaimed water line will be
installed along with the domestic water line within the pedestrian path
area.
A central computer will monitor irrigation I/ater usage throughout the
facility. The system will control sprinklers, pumps, fertilizers and
monitor weather conditions.
A Water Management Plan will be prepared and reviewed by City staff in
conjunction with the Precise Plan.
9. Greenbelt Trail System
The General Plan calls for a continuous open space greenbelt around the
perimeter of the Chula Vista Planning Area to preserve significant open
space resources. The greenbelt will eventually connect the Bayfront,
Sweetwater Valley, Otay River Valley and the Upper and Lower Otay
Reservoirs. One of the principal features of the greenbelt will be to
1 ink all of the principal parks and recreation areas of the various
communities together.
i .
Page 6. Item /s
Meeting Date 571790
The greenbelt lies on both sides of the Olympic Training Center (OTC) site
(Salt Creek on the west and lower Otay Reservoir on the east). The OTC
facility will be a compatible use with the greenbelt in that 86% of the
site will be devoted to open practice fields and related facilities. In
addition, the OTC will build the first segment of the greenbelt trail
system for hiking and bicycling use along the easterly side of the OTC
site. This trail system is an integral recreational element of the
eventual 28 mile perimeter system envisioned by the Chula Vista General
Pl an.
10. Graphics and Signage
The graphics and signage for the project will be designed to provide
identification, information and directions for OTC visitors and the
athletes. The sign program as well as lighting plans will be part of the
Precise Plan to be reviewed by the Design Review Committee prior to start
of construction.
11. Archi tecture
Preliminary architectural drawings of the OTC facil ity have been prepared
by the project architect. A model of the main structures has been
constructed and viewed by various members of city staff and members of the
community. The Visitor Center located at the entry to the site from
Orange Avenue is architecturally di sti ngui shed and sets the tone for the
other structures such as indoor facilities, support facilities and
athletes housing. The Design Review Committee has been working with the
architects on the preliminary plans in conjunction with the Precise Plan.
12. Public Facilities Finance Plan
The purpose of the OTC Public Facilities Finance Plan is to identify the
capital facil ities that will be required to be constructed prior to the
completion of the Olympic Training Center. The attached Public Facilities
Financing Plan identifies public facility needs and costs and sets forth
responsibilities for financing.
Basically, the on-site facilities required by the City will be funded and
built by the applicant, the San Diego National Sports Training Foundation,
as part of the first phase construction.
Off-site public facilities will be constructed by the Eastlake Development
Company. These facilities include the extension of Hunte Parkway from
Otay Lakes Road to Orange Avenue and the constructi on of Orange Avenue
from Hunte Parkway to Wueste Road. In addition, sewer, water, drainage,
and utilities will be included in the off-site work.
On-site facilities will consist of water facilities (including reclaimed
water lines), sewer facilities, drainage facilities, left-turn pockets on
Wueste Road and a walking/biking trail along I-Iueste Road.
--Page 7, Item /~
Meeting Date~-=..:..!-:~
In addition to roads and other public facilities necessary to support the
OTC, other public services will be required to serve the project.
Services such as police, fire, emergency medical, libraries, public works
maintenance, parks and schools. Each of the public services is discussed
in the Public Facilities Financing Plan as well as in the following
sections of this report.
13. Roads
The primary access to the OTC site wi 11 be provided by Hunte Parkway and
Orange Avenue. Both of these roads will be constructed by the EastLake
Development Company and the roads will initially be constructed as interim
roads. Hunte Parkway is a major road (104' R/W) between Otay Lakes Road
and Orange Avenue. Orange Avenue is also a major road from Hunte parkway
to east of the entrance road to the Vi stas nei ghborhood in EastLake II I.
Orange Avenue is a Class III Collector (60' R/W) from east of the entrance
road to the Vistas to Wueste Road. Wueste road is a Class III Collector
Street (60' RIll).
Orange Avenue will transition at the entrance to the Olympic Training
Center from a 4-1ane major road to a 3-1 ane roadway. The estimated trip
generati on for the Phase I OTC pl an is a total of 2,333 tri ps per day.
This includes athletes, visitors, support personnel, and spectators. At
buildout, the traffic is estimated to be 4,937 trips per day.
A 4-1ane major road can carry 30,000 trips per day at Los "C." The
percentage of OTe traffic on Orange Avenue and Hunte Parkway at buildout
is 16.45%.
The second road improvement project associated with the OTC is widening of
Wueste Road at the athletes entrance and the boathouse road to incl ude
1 eft turn pockets.
Under the current Chula Vista Street Design Standards Policy Hueste Road,
which is a local road, would have to be widened and constructed to a
36-foot-wide roadway with curb and gutter and meet all of the other design
criteria for residential streets.
The Olympic Training Center's Traffic Consultant, Urban Systems
Associ ates, recommended, on the basi s of the traffi c analysi s, that the
existing roadway was adequate to handle the proposed traffic on lIueste
Road from Orange Avenue southerly to the County Regional Park. Urban
Systems proposed a Wueste Road Rural Recreation Access Route standard that
would be adequate to handle the traffic on this scenic roadway due to the
volume, character and nature of the projected traffic. City staff
concurred wlth Urban Systems' recommendation. Therefore, it is staff's
recommendation that the segment of Wueste Road from Orange Avenue south to
the County Park be given a special designation of "Wueste Road Rural
Recreation Access Road" because of the volume, character and nature of the
traffic which will use this segment of the road.
/y1
Page B, Item ~S
Meeting Date 5 /90
The special designation for Wueste Road will provide for 24 feet of
pavement and B-foot graded shoulders within a 60-foot right-of-way. Other
design criteria are indicated on Exhibit "A". These criteria can be met
by the existing characteristics of the roadway allowing the road to
maintain its rustic rural appearance.
14. Sewer --
Sewer mai ns will be constructed by the Eastlake Development Company from
Otay lakes Road via Hunte Parkway and Orange Avenue to the OTC site. A
pump station will be required on-site and a second pump station will be
located at the boathouse.
Sewer pump station maintenance agreements and access agreements to the
Telegraph Canyon Sewer Trunk line will be required of the applicant prior
to grading or construction.
15. Drainage
The property lies in the Salt Creek and lower Otay drainage basins.
Approximately 39 percent of the site drains naturally into the lower Otay
Reservoir. The concern of the San Diego Water Util ities Department is
that steps be taken to prevent urban runoff directly into lower Otay
Reservoir during winter rains. A master plan to intercept urban runoff is
being prepared by the Baldwin Company.
The proposed grading plan and drainage system for the OTC would collect
urban runoff and direct it toward the west, away from lower Otay
Reservoir. Final design of grading and storm drainage systems will ensure
the protecti on of the lotler Otay Reservoi r.
Due to the increase in the size of the Salt Creek drainage basin (by
diverting drainage from the lower Otay basin) retention basins may be
necessary to control the rate of peak discharge during storm periods.
The. use of reclaimed wastewater to irrigate landscaping on the OTC
property may be restricted to the Salt Creek Drainage basin to prevent
nutrient or bacteria loads from the wastewater entering the lower Otay
Reservoir. The grading plan will redirect the drainage back to the west,
but there may still be some areas that need to be restricted from use of
reclaimed water for irrigation.
The quantity of reclaimed water available for irrigation use is dependent
on the Otay Municipal Water District. The Jamacha plant currently
produces 1.2 NGD and the irrigation demand for the TOC is .4 MGD. Long
term plans by OHWD call for plant expansion to 2.6 MGD.
16. School s
Although there will be a, small number (20-25) of school age (junior high
and senior high) athletes staying at the OTC, the athletes are not
expected to add significantly to the number of the number of school age
ch1ldren to local schools.
-Page 9, Item /~
Meeting Date 5}1}90
The entire Eastlake property, including the OTC site is included within
the Mello-Roos COlTlllunity Facilities District which levies a special tax
for construction of elementary, junior high and high schools.
17. Pol ice
The OTC is located beyond the standard response time call ed for by the
City's Threshold Ordinance. The current threshold standard requires a
response to 84% of Priority 1 (emergency) calls within 7 minutes with an
average response time to all Priority 1 calls of 4.5 minutes and a
response to 62% of Priority 2 (urgent) calls of 7 minutes with an average
response time to all Priority 2 calls of 7 minutes or less. A relatively
small project like the OTC would not justify the hiring of new police
officers and adding a new beat to standard patrol routes.
On a permanent basis, the USOC will provide year-around 24-hour private
security for the OTC. The plan is for the USOC to enter into an agreement
with the City which will permit USOC private security staff to detain
suspects until City police arrive on the scene.
18. Fire
The citywide threshold for fire service is to respond to 85% of fire and
emergency medical calls within 7 minutes. In 1989, the City's fire
department responded to 94% of emergency calls within the 7 minute
standard. Based on the travel time to the OTC from the City'S closest
existing fire station on Otay lakes Road (7-10 minutes), responses to the
OTC waul d exceed 7 minutes. However, the potenti al vol ume of emergency
fire and medical calls at the OTC would not be sufficient to significantly
affect current threshold performance on a citywide basis.
In 1989 Counci I adopted the Fi re Stati on 11aster PI an and the
project-specific fire coverage guidelines. These project guidelines
require that 85% of a development's residential units be within a 5.7
minute travel time. The guidelines for high risk cOlTlllercial or industrial
sites require a first-in travel time of 5.7 minutes (for sprinklered
buildings) and a second-in response time of 8.7 minutes. Thus, although
the citywide threshold for fire services would not be significantly
affected by the OTC, the OTC woul d not presently meet the Ci ty' s project
specific guidelines. The OTC would meet project guidelines upon
development of the fi re stati on network recommended in the Master PI an.
Exemptions to the project guidelines may be granted by the City Council by
a 3/5th vote, subsequent to the revie~j and recommendati ons of the Ci ty' s
Fire Prevention Bureau. Based on a number of interim mitigation measures
agreed to by the USOC, the Ci ty' s Fi re Preventi on Bureau is recommending
that Council grant an exemption for the OTC. Among the interim mitigation
measures required by the City's Fire Department, the OTC will be required
to maintain an on-site, private fire brigade, subject to on-going approval
and evaluation by the City. On-site medical emergencies will be handled
on a 24-hour basis by medical personnel working at the Sports Medicine
Clinic. The interim measures shall be maintained until fire stations
planned for the Salt Creek area and the Otay Ranch area west of the
reservoir are operational.
.....
Page 10, Item Is
Meeting Date ?-5 77'1"''''90'''-
Agreements between the USOC and the City will be required for fire,
emergency medical and police service prior to construction. Any legal or
financial liability issues will be resolved to the satisfaction of the
City prior to City Council approval of the agreements. The request for an
exemption to the project guidelines will be presented to Council when the
above mentioned agreements are completed.
19. Parks
The OTC is located within the Eastlake master planned community. To date,
Eastlake has provided or agreed to provide an excess of 9.5 acres of
parkland for Eastlake Hills, Shores and Greens. Eastlake Trails and
Eastlake III have not been subdivided yet, however, the General
Development Plan for each proposes to provide public parkland in excess of
City requirements, (+10.2 acres for the Trails and +48.9 acres for
Eastlake III). Therefore, the overall Eastlake development includes
actual and credited parkl and in excess of City requirements of
approximately +68.6 acres. No additional dedication of land or payment of
park fees is required for this project.
20. Public Facility and Service Issues: Olympic Training Center
The Planning Community Zone provides for implementation of a specific
project within an approved general development plan area by the submission
and approval of a sectional planning area plan. In addition to the
sectional planning area plan it has been determined that the most
appropri ate method of regul ating the operati on, use and desi gn of the
Olympic Training would be with a Precise Plan. Accordingly, there will be
no need for separate planned community district regulations for the OTC.
All of the master planning, design, and conditions of approval will be
governed by the Spa Plan, Public Facilities Financing Plan and Precise
Plan.
Publ ic facil ity and service issues associated with the Olympic Training
Center are as follows:
1) The design and adequacy of storm drain protection plans for lower
Otay Reservoir as well as storm retention basins on-site to protect
downstream flows at peak periods within Salt Creek and otay River
Vall ey.
2) The adequacy of long term supply of water for the OTC to be provided
by the Otay Municipal Water District and the effect of the current
water allocation restrictions on the OTC.
3) The capacity of the Tel egraph Canyon sewer trunk 1 ine to handl e
sewage discharged from the OTC and the safety of sewer pump stations
located within the water shed of lower Otay Reservoir.
4) The adoquacy of interim police, fire and emergency medical service in
relationship to the city's threshold ordinance.
/y)t7
Page 11, Item5;:i~ Meeting Date,-",,-,-,-.::..:::..._
5) The adequacy of off-site traffic mitigation measures at Telegraph
Canyon Road and I-B05.
21. Discussion of Issues
a. Drainage. The Eastlake III General Development Plan approved by the
city Council on December 5,1989 contains a condition which requires
the approval of a plan to protect lower Otay Reservoir from urban
runoff and/or sewage contami nati on pri or to the issuance of gradi ng
or building permits. This plan is under preparation. The SPA Plan
for the OTC will be conditioned to require the installation of
adequate runoff protection facilities to the satisfaction of the City
Engineer and other appropriate agencies such as the City of San Diego
Water Utilities Department and the County of San Diego Health
Department.
b. Water Supply. The question with respect to water supply has to do
with the effect of the Otay Municipal Water District's Water
Allocation Plan on the OTC. Indications from the representatives of
the San Diego National Sports Training Foundation are that the
District is considering exempting the OTC from the provisions of the
Water Allocation Plan because of the special public purpose of the
OTC facility. The exemption would be from Category 3 water permit
allocation, but the annual 1950 EDU's limitation would not be
exceeded by this exemption.
d. Sewer. The issue with respect to sewage disposal has been resolved.
The Eastlake Development Company has obtai ned permi ssi on from the
City to deposit sewage from the OTC into a foreign basin. This
permission is in the form of an agreement (Resolution 15449) whereby
the City agrees to such transfer and the Eastlake Development Company
agrees to the construction of certain improvements to the system that
will accommodate the sewage.
Sewage from the OTC will ultimately flow into a sewer trunk line down
Salt Creek to Otay River Valley and westerly to existing sewer
facilities in Chula Vista. However, it is infeasible to construct a
sewer trunk line down Salt Creek to Otay River Valley until the Otay
Ranch starts developing. During the interim period, OTC will need to
pump its sewage into the Telegraph Canyon basin and tie into the
existing 15" sewer line located in Otay lakes Road.
d. Police, Fire & Emergency Medical. Since the OTC is being built in a
remote location several years in advance of the development of the
surrounding area, fire, pol ice and emergency medical services will
not meet threshol d standards for mi nimum response times. However,
the United States Olympic Committee has agreed to provide comparable
service through on-site fire brigades, private security force, and
emergency medical personnel until the City can provide such services
in line with acceptable standards.

Likewise, the usoe will provide security for the OTe site utilizing
professionally trained personnel and techniques certified by the
City. Camera surveillance and on-site security patrols will also be
util ized. The private security force will enter into an agreement
with the City to permit USOC security staff to detain suspects until
City police arrive at the OTC facility. law enforcement problem at
the OTC are not expected to present any unusual demands on the City.
e. Off-Site Traffic. The traffic generated by the OTC is estimated to
be 2,333 average daily traffic volume for Phase I and 4,937 average
daily traffic volume at buildout. The access from Otay lakes Road to
the OTe will be constructed by Eastlake Development Company. The
issue is to what extent, if any, the OTC should be responsible for
improvements to Telegraph Canyon Road at I-80S in the event that
SUNBOW II and Eastlake Greens do not proceed in a timely manner?
Today I s vol urnes at I-80S and Tel egraph Canyon Road are 34,500 ADT.
Projected volumes at 1991 are 39,000. The OTC share of 1991 trips on
Telegraph Canyon Road is +5%. due to the extremely low volume of
traffic generated by the orc and due to the conditions of approval
imposed on SUNBOW II to make substantial improvements at the
Telegraph Canyon Road and I-80S interchange, the OTC EIR concl uded
that additional off-site traffic mitigation by the OTC would probably
not be needed, but this determination ~/ill be verified by the Traffic
Engineer at the time of construction.

ATTACHMENT 1
1; THE PROPOSED SECTIONAL PLANNING AREA PLAN IS IN CONFORMITY WITH THE
EASTLAKE III GENERAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN AND THE CHULA VISTA GENERAL PLAN.
The Olympic Traini ng Center Sectional Pl anning Area Pl an refl ects 1 and
use, circulation system, and publ ic facilities that are consistent with
the EastLake III General Development Plan and the Chula Vista General
Pl an; The Olympic Trai ning Center proposes athl etic training facil iti es
that are consistent with the public, quasi-public designations depicted on
the General Development Plan and General Plan.
2; THE PROPOSED SECTIONAL PLANNING AREA PAN WILL PROMOTE THE ORDERLY
SEQUENTIALIZED DEVELOPMENT OF THE INVOLVED SECTIONAL PLANNING AREA.
The SPA Plan and Public Facilities Plan set forth the phasing of the
project and the timing of public facilities construction to ensure the
orderly, sequentialized development of the project; The Public Facilities
Financing Plan identifies the public facilities, public services needed to
serve the project.
3; THE PROPOSED SECTIONAL PLANNING AREA PLAN WILL NOT ADVERSELY AFFECT
ADJACENT LAND USE, RESIDENTIAL ENJOYMENT, CIRCULATION, OR ENVIRONMENTAL
QUALITY.
The land uses within the Olympic Training Center represent the same uses
approved by the EastLake III General Development Plan. The majority of
the 150+ acre site (82%) will consist of open practice facil ities for
soccer, -field hockey, archery, tennis, cycl ing, athletics, and swimming.
The project has been pl anned to provi de the necessary support for U. S.
athletes seeking to compete in international competition. The site plan
is compatible with adjacent land uses and to avoid off-site impacts
through the provision of mitigation measures specified in the OTC

!,.';;I. ",.:-! t,"r:\\I' ',:" ,,:,:,_ .. _~ '.
The County of San Diego appreciates this opportunity to comment on the
proposed Olympic Training Center Sectional Planning Area (SPA) Plan currently
. being processed by the City of Chula Vista. The site is presently located in
··.·the·.OtaySubregional Planning Area and the CitY'of Chula Vista Sphere of
--Influence, and is a portion of.the City's proposed. Eastlake III General.
Development Plan Area. This letter includes comments from various County
.. departments such as Agriculture, Parks and Recreation, Planning and Land Use,
Public Works, and the Sheriff.
The site is designated as· (19) Intensive Agriculture (I dwelling unit per 2,
4, and 8 acres) and (18) Multiple Rural Use (I dwelling unit per 4, 8, and 20
acres) in the County General Plan.
The following is a summary of the staff comments on the significant planning
issues concerning the Olympic Training Center SPA Plan:
CHAPTER ONE . INTRODUCTION

Sect ion 1. 5
PAGE
Page 3
This section, as written, is incomplete and should be rewritten to explain how
this Sectional Plan is consistent with Section 65451 of the State of
California Government Code, which addresses the required elements of a
specific plan. Furthermore, this Sectional Plan should state, in a separate
section if necessary, detailed information which explainss how and why the
project is consistent with the General Plans of the City of Chula Vista and
the County, ~here applicable .

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT: Section 1. 7 Page 4
.. .' ~.". :''-<1:: ..
The Supplemental Dr;~ft_Env-ironme!ltal, Impact ,Report (DEIR) for the project has
not been completed at this time and is tentatively scheduled to be heard by
the Chula Vista Planning Commission in December of 1989. The County would
like an opportunity to comment on the DEIR upon its completion, in order to
have its comments addressed in the Final Environmental Impact Report (FEIR).
CHAPTER THREE -SPA PLAN
PLANNING CONCEPTS: Section 3.1 Page 8
This document lacks additional information normally included in a specific
plan, such as what specific development standards and criteria are to be met.
Also lacking are documents confirming availability and commitment for
provision of needed public facilities from service providers. This
information is valuable in showing that the project will be consistent with
the General Plan and implementing ordinances.
VISITORS: Section 3.1.2 Page 9
This section states that the proposed visitor center is at the highest pOint
an the property, and would include 30-40 foot high observation towers for
visitors. It also states that the proposed athletes' village is to be built
on-slopes overlooking Lower'Otay Lake, using stepped grading. Because the
visitor center and athletes' village are in prominent locations and have the
potential for visual impacts to a wide area, information should be provided
which allows for these concerns to be studied and evaluated.
Such information should include a conceptual grading plan showing natural and
proposed finished contour lines, height of cut and fill slopes, elevation
drawings showing profiles of buildings and ridgeline development which would
assist in grading and visual impact analysis. These concerns are vital in
making the loc~tional decision for these facilities and these stUdies should
be done prior to approval of the SPA, as well as being discussed in the ErR.
3.3 TRAFFIC/CIRCULATION
SUB-REGIONAL NETWORK: Section 3.3.1 Page 11
The SPA plan should include a discussion of how the project meets the
circulation element of the City of Chula Vista and County General Plans,
emphasizing ways that the site can be served by mass transit such as express
bus service. Traffic generation is forecasted utilizing standard San Diego
Association of Governments (SANDAG) traffic generation rates. These rates
should be supplemented with traffic generation data from ongoing planning
efforts in the surrounding area, such as the Otay Ranch General Plan Amendment
review, which include more current data on proposed land uses surrounding the
•

site. Also, improvements to Orange Avenue and Hunte Parkway should be clearly
identified. This data will help to reevaluate the assumptions made concerning
Or,ange Av~nue.,. WuesJe. R.o,ad and,,,o.tber nearby ctr.cul ati on r,outes. ,
, .• -~.~ ..... ~·r·':·:·· .. "';. ~;.~~ .~".:. ..'
ONSITE ACCESS: Section 3.3.2 Page 12
The project as proposed would require visitors to drive their personal autos
via Wueste Road to the boathouse adjacent to lower Otay Lake. Alternatives
such as shuttle bus service and walking trails should be provided.
Leaving Wueste Road in its present condition is not acceptable. The road
needs upgrading to light collector standards, including curbs, gutters and
sidewalks for pedestrjan travel around Lower Otay Lake. Entrance road
improvements to the facility are not identified, i.e., traffic control such as
left-turn pockets and traffic signals are not mentioned.
PARKING: Section 3.3.3 Page 12
The total number of parking spaces required for this project using County
parking standards is 560 spaces. The developer uses City of San Diego parking
standards, which requires 470 parking spaces. Most of the difference is due
to County standards for guest dormitories, which require one space per person
for a total of 150 spaces, while City of San Diego standards require one space
per three rooms for a, total of 50 spaces. In addition, County standards would
require that bicycle parking spaces be provided as well.
TRANSIT: Section 3.3.4 Page 13
This section should address the need for mass transit service for visitors as
well as athletes and employees. The SPA plan should provide the facilities
for mass transit on this site. The project should provide onsite transit
shelters for several busses since many visitors will use mass transit to get
to the Olympic Training Center.
CYCLING ROUTES: Section 3.3.5 Page 13
The·project also proposes the use of roads located in the unincorporated area
for offsite cycling training. The training center has proposed two 40 mile
cycling loops, one 60 mile loop, and a 100 mile cycling loop, which involve
using the following roads in the unincorporated area:

The. Olympic Training center proposal would assign leading and following
vehicles to escort cyclists in training on these routes. No mention of
eXisting or proposed bicycle lanes is made. Alternative bicycle routes should
be studied in order to identify potential traffic hazards and conflicts and to
assure the selection of routes that provide the safest passage. Construction
of bicycle lanes should be considered where feasible. Because no public
telephones are available in many remote backcountry areas, the developer
should ensure ~at adequate supervision is present so that cycl ists can get·
help in an accl~ent or other emergency.
3.5 PARKS, OPEN SPACE AND LANDSCAPE CONCEPTS
PARKS AND OPEN SPACE: Section 3.5.1. Page 14
The Olympic Training Center will be primarily a facility that is open to the
public for spectator/tourist use, but not usable for recreational purposes.
Therefore it does not satisfy any Recreation Element standards of the County
of San Diego .
•
John Goss, City Manager - 5 -
The~exi.stence of high quality athletic facilities should inspire local
residents to demand and pay for high quality recreational facilities and
programsifor~tbeir"own communities. The long term effect of providing such
programs"and:'facilities should be a reduction in crime and substance "abuse and
corresponding increase in public health and welfare.
This section states "Because the majority of use on the Olympic Training
Center campus is outdoor athletic venues, approximately 82% of the 150 acre
site will be retained as visual open space". This term requires definition
and clarification to determine what public benefits, if any, will be gained
from this type of open space. In addition, a quasi-public picnic area for the
benefit of visitors is proposed adjacent to the visitors center, but no other
useable public open space is proposed on site. The distance from the visitors
center to the end of the walkway at the southern end of the site is
approximately 3,300 feet (3/5 of a mile), and therefore additional useable
open space and.public facilities along this route are necessary for rest and
relaxation of Visitors.
LANDSCAPE CONTENTS: Section 3.5.2 Page 14
To minimize potable water usage, the developer should be required to use
drought-tolerant plant species in all landscaped areas. Landscaped areas
should be irrigated with reclaimed water where such irrigation will not
contaminate potable water supply.
The landscaping plan should include more trees around the perimeter of the
site and fencing for increased security; increased use of trees around playing
fields to create improved visual background, glare reduction, and protection
from wind; and proper drainage control to minimize impacts to Salt Creek.
IRRIGATION GUIDELINES: Section 3.5.3 Page 15
A discussion of impacts of recreational use to the Lower Dtay Lake, including
runoff, and impacts of water sports and spectator events should be included.
Also included should be discussion as to impacts to Salt Creek and the Lower
Dtay Regional Park to the south. These studies should include elevations and
section drawings of these areas.
3.6 GRAPHICS AND SIGNAGE: Page 17
The SPA plan should state that proposed signage will be consistent with City
standards and also include specific language which controls the type, size,
height, and location of signage such as donor or special event signage, which
has the greatest potential for negative visual impacts to the surrounding
area.
3.7 LIGHTING DESIGN GUIDELINES: Page 19
Light pollution from this project may effect astronomical research activities
at the Mount ~aguna and Palomar Mountain Observatories. Because of the
John Goss, City Manager - 6 -
proximity of the Mount Laguna Observatory and the concentration of athletic
fields and other facilities proposed for this site, the potential for light
'p't>llift'ion':from-,exte"rior:Tightfng=-is great .. Control of lighting types and
's"bUrces' shouHI' be re"quired which' elililrnat"e's"or" shields any light' from' shining
upward_ Low-pressure sodium exterior lighting should be required because this
lighting type has the least light pollution impact. The City of Chula Vista's
Lighting Ordinance permits high-pressure sodium lighting, which is one of the
most impactive lighting types.
The County recommends that all lighting be consistent with the County Light
Pollution Control Ordinance and that the hours of operation of outdoor
lighting should be limited to 10:00 p.m., not 11:00 p.m. or later as proposed
by the applicant, in order to minimize light pollution impacts on the
neighboring residents as well as the observatories. This section of the SPA
plan should include a discussion about lighting for the project in relation to
dark sky reqUirements for astronomical research, including wave lengths that
can be filtered out by observatory equipment.
CHAPTER 4 -PUBLIC FACILITIES
A· sectfoh should be 'included withTn' this chapter which describes how the
project will finance required public facilities and whether these facilities
will be developed in phases or at one time. This section should be consistent
with the findings of the Public Facilities Finance Plan and Development
Agreement.
4.1 STORM DRAIN SYSTEM: Page 21
The project should include a detailed drainage study, including the amount of
diversion area and flow; the increase in flow due to improved areas should be
determined; preparation of a complete drainage design; and identification of
offsite mitigation such as fees, construction, etc. The storm system design
should be reviewed as more specific information is developed. Water quality
information is ~eeded.
4.2 " SEWER SYSTEM: Page 21
A more detailed analysis of the temporary sewage system, including design
standards, treatment, capacity, physical alignment and location of facilities,
and financing should be included in the approved SPA plan. This analYSis
should also include a contingency plan in the event of a pump failure which
addresses the handling of sewage spills and protection of the water quality of
Lower Otay Lake. Also, a similar study of the permanent sewage system should
be prepared which includes phasing and future improvements and expansion of
the system.
4',3.2 RECLAIMED WATER: Page 23
The use of reclaimed water on the site should be required, not considered (as
stated by the applicant). A water reclamation plan should be prepared in
'.
John Goss, City Manager - 7 -
cooperation with the Otay Water District and County Health Department. This
plan should include a discussion of how groundwater and lower Otay lake water
supply .will ·be protected; ".Consideration should· be given to .redesigning the
project to ensure that as many athletic fields and 'landscaped -areas as
possible are located on the west side of the project so that reclaimed water
can be utilized to the greatest extent possible.

This department has reviewed the Olympic Training Center (SPA) Plan for the Otay
Lakes region.
The actual Training Center site does not appear to displace any agricultural
activities. However, the lands adjacent to the Center location are being farmed
in barley and have been used for wheat and barley in the past. I,e are aware of
the East Lake General Plan which would eventually eliminate these lands from
agricultural use.
The Department of Agriculture, Weights and Heasures encourages the use of
reclaimed water for irrigation of playing fields and landscaped areas taking
precautions to avoid drainage into the Otay Lakes.
We appreciate the opportunity to comment on the Olympic Training Center Plan.

Attn: Gordon Howard, Regional Planner
FROM: Robert R. Copper, Director
Parks and Recreation Department
SUBJECT: U.S. Olympic Training Center, San Diego
This memo is in response to your Department's request for comments
on the draft of the report on the subject training center. After
reviewing the report and attending the october 3, 1989 information
meeting on the project, Parks staff has prepared the following
comments which I offer for inclusion in your letter to the Board
of Supervisors on this project.
1. COUNTY RECREATION STANDARDS
The Recreation Element of the county General Plan specifies
a standard of 30 acres per 1,000 people: 15 acres per 1,000
for regional parks and 15 acres per 1,000 for local parks.
~he regional and local parks provided by these standards in
the Recreation Element are those that are open to and usable
by the general public for recreation purposes: The Olympic
Training Center, hOlolever, is a facility IoIhich \dll be open to,
but not usable by the general public for recreation purposes.
From the standpoint of the general public, the training
facili ty will be a spectator/tourist type of attraction. Only
the athletes training for the Olympics will be allowed to
actually use the recreation facilities provided by the Center.
The only exception to this, mentioned by the NcKinley Group
at the information meeting, might be an occasional special
event where residents of San Diego County could partiCipate
by using the facili ties. This would be an infrequent
occurrence, not on a regular basis, and consequently, does not
satisfy the ongoing recreational need of residents of the
County. For this reason, the training facility loIould not be
considered as satisfying any of the Recreation Element's
standards for regional or local parks.

2. THE LONG RANGE MASTER PLAN
October 18, 1989
Page 2
The Long Range Master Plan (Figure 4 in the report) appears
to be a comprehensive weIi" thought':'out 'pl~m for intensive
recreational use of the ISO-acre site. The proj ect has
national and international significance (another reason for
not being counted toward satisfying regional park and local
park standards) but is designed to be sensitive to local
conditions (topography, drainage, community character, etc.).
The Landscape Concept Plan (Figure 18) is an attempt to use
planting (particularly trees) to denote c~rtain areas in the
project while establishing overall landsd'ape continuity not
only within the proj ect but with the proposed development
surrounding the project site. We suggest the following: more
generous use of trees around the periphery as a buffer in
combination with boundary fencing (to our knowledge, fencing
was not mentioned in the report) for increased security;
addi tional tree plantings around sportsfields to create a
consistent visual backdrop for better visibility of balls,
reduction of glare, and increased wind control; and proper
drainage detention and/or.dissipation of the increased runoff
from the project'into Salt Creek. We would like to see a
discussion of the impacts on public use of Lower Otay Lakes
from the proj ect including runoff into the lakes. Also,
please discuss. the impacts of runoff into Salt Creek and the
cumulative impacts on the proposed otay River Regional Park
to the south. Elevations and sections of the site would help
in understanding and evaluating these impacts. There should
also be some discussion about lighting of the project in
relation to the dark sky requirements of the Palomar
Obse'.=vatory, including "lave lengths that can be filtered out
by palomar equipment.
3. REGIONAL EFFECTS OF THE TRAINING CENTER
It appears that the location of the Olympic Training Center
in San Diego County will have a strong positive effect with
several ramifications : pOlitically, economically, socially
and recreationally. The Center will obviously help increase
tourism to County by creating and sustaining jobs. Also, as
local residents visit the Training Center and observe the
variety of facilities available, they should be inspired to
want more and better recreation facilities in their own
neighborhoods and communi ties. ~lhen this desire grows into
a popular demand, the majority of residents then become
willing to make the necessary sacrifices to obtain better

recreation facilities and programs, proper~y staffed and

constructive activities for all age groups should be a
reduction in crime and substance abuse with a corresponding
increase in the public health and welfare.

Sheriff's Department (C41)
OLYMPIC TRAINING CENTER PLAN
We have reviewed the plan submitted for the Olympic Training
Center. The Sheriff's Department has identified the following
areas of potential problems which we feel must be addressed:
1. The bicycle loops are located in the unincorporated areas to
the east of the training center. The area is mostly
. two-lane,~ nart'ow, and' at places, winding road. To ensure the
safety of bicyclists, these roads need to be improved with
bicycle lanes.
2. Regarding'these outlying areas, some have no public
telephones within any reasonable spacing. In case of
accident or other emergency, how will the cyclists get help?
Will the training center ensure riders have some way of
getting help?
If you need further information, please feel free to contact this

ATTACHMENT B
OTC RESPONSE
The Olympic Training Center Sectional Planning Area Plan (SPA Plan) filed
with the City of Chula Vista in August, 1989 is the second level of master
planning required by City ordinances for major projects (over 50 acres). The
subject project has been dealt with in the City's General Plan Update adopted
by the City Council on July 11, 1989 as well as the Eastl ake I II General
Development Plan adopted by the City Council on December 5, 1989. The
Eastlake III General Development Plan is the first level of master planning
required by the City's Planned Community Zone.
Following the adoption of the Eastlake III General Development Plan, the
City's Planned Community Zone requires the preparation of a Sectional Planning
Area Plan (SPA Plan) and Precise Plan prior to approval of Tentative
Subdivision Maps and/or grading plans and building permits. We are now
reviewing the SPA Pl an and the Publ ic Facil ities Financing Pl an for the DTC.
Public hearings on the OTC draft EIR are scheduled for the Planning Commission
on I~arch 14 and hearings on the SPA Plan/Public Facilities Financing Plan are
scheduled for April 11. City Council hearings are tentatiVely scheduled for
1 ate April.
Our response to your comments follow the format outlined in your letter
addressed to me dated December 5, 1989 (Attachment A).
CHAPTER ONE -INTRODUCTION
SPA PLAN SECTION TITLE
LEGAL SIGNIFICANCE OF THE SPA: Section 1.5
,
Page 3
1. Legal significance of the SPA. The Sectional Planning Area Pl an is not a
specific plan as defined in Section 65451 in the State of California
Government Code. The Sectional Planning Area Plan is a unique creation of
the City of Chula Vista's Planned Community Zone which is contained in
Chapter 19.48 of the Zoning Ordinance. Findings of consistency with the
General Plan were made by the Chula Vista City Council when the Eastlake
III General Development Plan was adopted on December 5, 1989. The SPA
Plan is required to be consistent with the General Development Plan of the
Planned Community Zone. In this case the Olympic Training Center is
des'ignated for Public/Quasi Publ ic use on the City of Chula Vista General
Plan and also on the Eastlake III General Development Plan. The SPA Plan
for the Olympic Training Center which shows the various athletic training
facilities including fields, gymnasium, and SWimming facilities is
consistent with the Public/Quasi-Public land use designation of the Chula
Vista General Plan and also with the uses permitted by the Planned
Community Zone.
IS3t'
ENVIRONMENTAL If4PACT REPORT: Section 1.7 Page 4
The supplemental draft Environmental Impact Report 89-11, State.
Clearinghouse No. 89010284 for the Olympic Training Center SPA Plan was
distributed to the County of San Diego in January, 1990. The Planning
Commission Public Hearing on the supplemental draft EIR is scheduled for Harch
14, 1990 at 7:00 p.m. in the City Council chambers.
CHAPTER THREE -SPA PLAN
PLANNING CONCEPTS: Section 3.1 Page 8
The speci fic development standards will be set forth in the Preci se Pl an
which is part of the Pl anned Community Zone requi rements. The Preci se Pl an
will be acted upon by the City's Design Review Committee after the SPA Plan.
The Precise Plan requires detailed architectural review, landscape plans,
irrigation systems, sign program, lighting ~lar., site plan, off-street parking
design, ingress and egress desi gn, and oper',tional use standards (much like a
Conditional Use Permit).
Once again the SPA Pl an is not a speCific pl an and does not need to be
judged by criteria of the Government Code concerning specific plans, what is
important is that the SPA Pl an must be eval uated in accordance with the
Specific Developments Standards and Criteri a contai ned in Chapter 19.48, the
Planned Community Zone of the Chula Vista Zoning Ordinance. The specific
reqUirements for institutional uses in a PC Zone include a General Development
Plan followed by a SPA Plan and Public Facilities Financing Plan and a Precise
Plan. The applicant has submitted an OlympiC Training Center Public Facility
Fi nance Pl an whi ch detail 5 the pl ans for provi di ng roads, sewer, water, and
drainage facilities for the project, as well as police service, fire service
and emergency medical service, 1 ibraries, parks and recreation, and public
works maintenance.

The archi tects for the OTC have submi tted prel imi nary desi 9ns of the
vi sitor' s center and athl etes housi ng to the City of Chul a Vi sta' s DeSign
Review Committee. A large model of the OTC is on display at the Public
Services Building at Fourth and F Streets. In addition, a tentative
subdivision map with grading information is on file with the Chula Vista
Engineeri ng Department. The grading desi gn has been revi ewed by ERC
environmental consultants who are under contract to the City to prepare the
OTC Suppl emental EIR. No envi ronmenta1 impacts have been i dentifi ed in the
Supplemental EIR for grading or visual impacts.

SUB-REGIDtIAL NETWORK: Section 3.3.1 Page 11
The Eastlake III General Development Plan addressed circulation element.
conformance. The City Council upgraded several General Plan roads as a
response to the traffic analysis performed by JHK and Associates as part of
the Eastlake III Environmental Impact Report.
One of the actions taken by the City Council was to amend the Circulation
Element to provide for a future express bus route to the OTC Visitor's Center
when sufficient demand warrants such service. In addition, the Council's
adopted Circulation Element proposes a mass transit component to be included
in Future State Route 125 corridor.
Improvement standards for Orange Avenue and Hunte Parkway will be made
conditions of approval for the OTC SPA Plan based upon the City's Circulation
Element and the mitigation measures contained in the Eastlake III General
Development Plan EIR.
ONSIlE ACCESS: Section 3.3.2 Page 12
Onsite access to the boathouse has not been finalized yet, however,
vi si tors to the OTC will not drive their personal autos to the boathouse.
Access will probably be limited to walking trails.
Wueste Road has been proposed to remain as a Rural Recreational Facility
Collector Road based upon several considerations. First, traffic projections
made by USA indicate that Wueste Road will not attract sUfficient volumes to
warrant future widening. The City is considering adopting a street standard
to reflect the characteristic of Wueste Road. Second, the Chula Vista General
Plan designation the area along Wueste Road or open space as part of a
continuous 28 mile greenbelt around the perimeter of the planning area.
Future development within the greenbelt will be limited to recreational uses
and open space. Thirdly, the City would prefer to avoid urban street
standards adjacent to the Lower Otay Reservoir due to the impact on the rural
character of the area. Pedestri ans and bicycl i sts uti] i zi ng Hueste Road wi 11
be accommodated by a 25 foot wide off-street path and bikeway along the
westerly side of Wueste road. The design of this facility envisions a 6 foot
decomposed granite pedestrian path and a 8 to 12 foot concrete bike path.
Entrance road improvements at the athl etes entrance and the boathouse
entrance on Wueste Road will consist of left turn pockets and other
appropriate traffic control improvements. These requirements are part of the
conditions of approval of the OTC SPA Plan.
-3-
PARKING: Section 3.3.3 Page 12
The actual number of off-street parking spaces provided in the OTC SPA
Plan for Phase I is 800 spaces. At bui1dout the total number of parking
spaces will be 1033. Both numbers are considerably in excess of City of Chula
Vista or County of San Diego standards.
In addition, bicycle parking spaces will be addressed in greater detail in
the Precise Plan.
TRANSIT: Secti on 3.3.4 Page 13
Chula Vista Transit will establish a route along Orange Avenue out to the
OTe when there is sufficient demand for required bus service. The Precise
Plan will address the location of bus shelters.
CYCLl NG ROUTE: Section 3.3.5 Page 13
The cycling routes shown off-site are conceptual and these routes will be
studied by the cyclists organization personnel and coaches prior to initiation
of training. If these county roads are used by the cyclists, appropriate
safety measures will be coordinated with County officials.
3.5 PARKS, OPEN SPACE AND LANDSCAPE CONCEPTS
PARKS AND OPEN SPACE: Section 3.5.1 Page 14
It is incorrect to state that the Olympic Training Center will be
primarily a facility that is open to the public for spectator/tourist use.
The OTC will be a facility used for training athletes in a variety of Olympic
sports. The facility will be a training facility for athletes who will
utilize the OTC to home their athletic skills for various periods. Some
athletes ~'il1 be in residence for a few \Ieeks of training and others \·,ill stay
for longer periods of training. Occasionally there will be competitions to
determine team members and/or exhibitions in various sports with touring
squads for other countries.
During the training periods, visitors to the OTe will be provided the
opportunity to observe the athletes sharpening their skills and/or engaging in
exhibitions.
There will be opportunities for community athletic groups to use the
facil iti es when they are avail abl e and simil ar1y there wi 11 be opportuni ti es
when athletes will train at other facilities in the San Diego area such as San
Diego State, UCSD, etc.

!
With respect to the outdoor athletic venues on site, these fields and
outdoor practice facilities constitute about 62% of the 150 acre si teo The
tenn "visual open space" refers to the soccer, baseball, field hockey and
other similar practice fields. The public benefits for these outdoor
facilities are linked to the benefits of having an Olympic Training Center in
San Diego County.
The Olympic Path linking the Visitor Center to the southerly tip of the
site is the route for trams to carry visitors who prefer to ride on their tour
of the facility. An Olympic Training Center is not an appropriate location
for fUblic open space. This would conflict with the intended purpose of the
faci ity which is to provide training opportunities for elite U.S. athletes to
represent the United States in international competition.
A future park is located south of the OTC and publ ic open space will be
provided adjacent to Lower Otay Lake and within Salt Creek at the time
Eastlake III develops. In addition, a public walking/bicycling trail will be
provided along Wueste Road.
LANDSCAPE CONTENTS: Section 3.5.2 Page 14
The City of Chula Vista Landscape Manual requires the use of
drought-tolerant plant species. Landscaped areas will be irrigated with
recl aimed water from Otay r~unicipal Water District.
The landscaping plans will be reviewed at the time of the Precise Plan
review. All of the suggestions concerning increased use of trees, fencing and
drainage control have been forwarded to the City's Landscape Architect who
will review the landscape plan prior to start of construction.

limits does not include the Lower Otay Reservoir.
3.6 GRAPHICS AND SIGNAGE: Page 17
The control of signage will be covered in the Precise Plan. A complete
sign plan with colors, materials, lighting and copy will be subject to
approval of the Chula Vista Design Review Committee.

3.7 LIGHTING DESIGN GUIDELINES: Page 19
The lighting plan will be subject to detailed review by the Chula Vista
Design Review Committee. Zero degree cut-off fixtures will be required to
prevent off-site glare.
Although, low pressure sodium lighting may be desirable for parking lots
and maintenance areas, athletic competition may involve the type of lighting
typically used at football, baseball, softball and soccer fields. This will
be further evaluated during the Precise Plan review.
Limits on hours of operation of the outdoor facilities will be established
in the Precise Plan.
CHAPTER 4 -PUBLIC FACILITIES:
A separate aTe Public Facilities Financing Pl an has been prepared and
copies were distributed to the County of San Diego on December 18, 1989. The
Financing Plan described how the off-site public facilities will be phased and
financed.
4.1 STaRN DRAIN SYSTEM: Page 21
The DTC Public Facilities Financing Plan includes a summary of the
drainage study and describes the storm drainage system to be constructed.
Improvement plans describing the drainage system design and flow calculations
will be required prior to construction. Off-site mitigation of lost water
charges have been worked out with the City of San Diego and will be made
conditions of approval. In addition, the OTC will participate in the
construction of an urban runoff protection facil ity for Lower Otay Reservoi r
and pay into an annual fund for maintenance.
4.2 SEWER SYSTEM: Page 21
A detail ed study of the sewage system i ncl udi ng fl O~I capacity, desi gn
standards, and location and sizing of facil ities has been approved for the
Eastl ake Greens project. Thi s Sewer Moni tori ng Agreement i ncl udes provi sions

4.3.2 RECLAIMED WATER: Page 23
The use of reclaimed water will be required as a condition of approval of·
the SPA Plan, subject to the approval of the County Heal th Department and
Regional Water Quality Control Board. Reclaimed water cannot be used on areas
of the OTC that potentially could drain into Lower Otay Reservoir.
Ground water protection will be subject to review of the plan by Regional
Water Quality Control Board staff.
The site plan does place the majority of athletic fields on the west side
of the site to maximize the use of reclaimed water for irrigation and to
prevent run-off into Lower Otay Reservoir.

PLANNING AREA PLAN (SPA) AND PUBLIC FACILITIES FINANCING PLAN (PFFP); SAN
DIEGO NATIONAL SPORTS TRAINING FOUNDATION
Planning Consultant Bud Gray highlighted where the properties were located
using overhead projection, and told where the various activities would take
place. He said the first phase would involve a gymnasium to accommodate
team handball and volleyball, in addition to soccer fields, field hockey, baseball,
and other playing fields. He went on to explain other facilities that would be
included in the first phase.
Mr. Gray noted that Wueste Road would be considered a special road that would
remain basically in its present configuration with two lanes of traffic, no
curb, gutters or sidewalks but with the addition of an 8-foot graded shoulder
for emergency parking. He said staff was recommending that a pedestrian jogging
path, together with a concrete bike path, separate from the road and landscaped
be included within the greenbelt area.
He noted that the staff report answers some of the major issues of concern.
He referred to the protection of Lower Otay ReserVoir from any contaminants or
runoff. The grading of the site drains toward Salt Creek away from Lower Otay
Reservoir, except for a few small areas along Wueste Road. He stated staff
wanted to make sure the City of San Diego, who owns the Lower Otay Reservoir,
was satisfied with the conditions of approval which consist of an Urban
Protection Run-Off Plan for the entire Lower Otay Reservoir; the City of San Diego
Water Utilities staff formula for asseSSing the value of IIlost water,lI which
will be applied to the project; and ongOing maintenance responsibility by the
OTC.
Regarding fire and police, the U.S. OlympiC Committee would have their on-site
fire protection service, which would be certified by the City, and would require
agreements. The police service would be handled in the same manner.
Staff recommended that the SPA Plan dnd Public Facilities Financing Plan be
approved subject to the 27 conditions contained in the report.
Mr. Gray referred to a letter received from the County the day of the meeting
regarding the proposed use of roads in the unincorporated area for long distance
bicycle usage, and the liability of the County. Through contact with the County,
meetings will be scheduled to be held before the Council meeting regarding
the SPA Plan to work out details.
Mr. Gray noted there was an additional condition of approval regarding off-street
parking. He brought the Commissioners' attention to minor changes in
conditions no. 5, 9, 10, and 20.
Commissioner Cannon asked the Assistant City Attorney if it would be more appropriate
to require the OTC to hold the City harmless from any and all liability that may
accrue due to the fact that non-City personnel may have some problems that would
cause a lawsuit to occur; WOUldn't it also be appropriate to have the OTC hold the
City harmless from any suits arising against the City of Chula Vista for failure
teo provide those services (Condition #20). Assistant Attorney Rudolf said that
was addressed on page 9 of the report, under item 18.
This being the time and place advertised, the public hearing was opened.
