Auto Park East Specific Plan (pCM-02-1 0)
I. INTRODUCTION
A. Purpose
The Auto Park East Specific Plan, ("Project"), is a policy and regulatory tool that will guide the
development of the Project site using a focused development scheme. It provides a bridge between
the broad policies of the General Plan and the detailed development objectives for the site. This
Specific Plan supercedes the applicable zoning provisions for the site by establishing land use and
development regulations that are specifically adapted to the proposed development of the Project
site. The provisions of this Specific Plan are intended to be responsive to constraints and
opportunities on the site and the objectives of the Project while implementing adopted policy.
The Auto Park East Specific Plan has been prepared to plan and implement the easterly expansion of
the Chura Vista Auto Park, ("Auto Park"), on Main Street in the City of Chura Vista. The guiding
rationale behind this Specific Plan is to ensure the orderly and viable development of the Project site
and the implementation of the policies of the General Plan and the OtayValley Road Redevelopment
Project Area. The comprehensive and coordinated development of the easterly expansion of the
Auto Park will benefit the City and the Otay Valley Road Redevelopment Project Area by removing
blight and facilitating new development that will expand commercial opportunities and the
employment base.
B. Statutory Authority
The Auto Park East Specific Plan is adopted by ordinance in accordance with Chapter 19.07,
Specific Plans, ofTitle 19, Zoning, of the Chura Vista Municipal Code and Sections 65450-65457 of
the California Government Code. Chapter 19.07 adopts and incorporates the Government Code
Sections 65450-65457 by reference as though set forth in full.
C. Relationship to Other Plans and Policies
The Auto Park East Specific Plan implements the broad policies of the General Plan and the
Redevelopment Plan for the Otay Valley Road Redevelopment Project Area by establishing
permitted land uses, development standards, design guidelines, and entitlement processes for the
expansion of the Chura Vista Auto Park. This Specific Plan supersedes the zone regulations for the
Project site. Where in conflict with the Chula Vista Municipal Code, this Specific Plan shall apply;
and where this Specific Plan does not address a topic, the Chura Vista Municipal Code and other
applicable policies and regulations shall apply.
D. Specific Plan Objectives
The primary objectives of the Auto Park East Specific Plan are:
1. The expansion of the existing Auto Park to create a regional destination automobile sales and
service park with supporting uses.
2. A distinct identity for the Auto Park and a thematic link to other attractions in the Otay
Page 1 of 13
Auto Park East Specific Plan (PCM-O2-IO)
Valley through the Main Street Streetscape Master Plan.
3. The comprehensive and coordinated development, operation, and maintenance of the Project
site.
4. An improved image of the Main Street corridor and adjacent land uses.
5. The provision of all necessary infrastructure, services, and facilities at the time of need.
E. Site Location
The Auto Park East Specific Plan site is located along Main Street within the City ofChula Vista,
approximately one halfrnile east of Interstate 805. The Project site consists of approximately 31
acres on the south side of Main Street to the east of Brandywine A venue and to the west of Max well
Road.
F. Surrounding Uses
Immediately adjacent land uses include the existing Auto Park to the west, the Auto Park North
expansion site and industrial parks to the north (across Main Street), and the Otay Valley Regional
Park and Otay River to the south and east. Miscellaneous industrial and commercial uses are located
along the Main Street corridor along with open space related to the Otay River Valley. The Otay
Landfill is located to the northeast of the Project site; the Coors Amphitheater and Knott's Soak City
are located to the east.
G. Site Characteristics
The Project site includes approximately 31 acres on the south side of Main Street with approximately
2,910 feet of frontage along Main Street and a maximum depth of approximately 600 feet. The site
was previously developed and used for agricultural purposes and also included the former City
Animal Shelter, which was demolished in 2002. The site has been stocked with imported fill under
an uncontrolled embankment permit.
H. Issues and Opportunities
The relative shallow depth of the site and its extensive frontage along a Prime Arterial Street could
result in design and access issues for future development. The prime arterial designation for Main
Street presents the need to carefully consider suitable types ofland use for the site. However, these
same attributes present opportunities for appropriate types ofland uses such as the proposed Auto
Park East expansion. The Specific Plan addresses these and other issues and opportunities through
land use, development regulations, and design standards.
1. Issues
a. The relatively shallow depth of the site is a development consideration and a potential design
constraint.
b. The adjacency of the site to the Otay Valley Regional Park and habitat could affect the types
of appropriate uses and operations that could be allowed on portions of the site.
Page 2 of 13
Auto Park East Specific Plan (PCM-O2-1O)
c. Main Street is designed as a prime arterial intended to move large volumes of traffic at
relatively high speeds with minimal access.
d. Key intersections and the Main Street corridor east of Interstate 805 lack identity and the
existing streetscapes have no unifying theme.
2. Opportunities
a. The planned development of the site will provide for an appropriate use of the under-utilized
property and further the redevelopment objectives of the Otay Valley Road Redevelopment
Project Area.
b. Comprehensive planning and design will result in efficient circulation, safe access, and the
effective use of infrastructure and other improvements.
c. There are adequate public fac~lities and services that now exist or that can be easily provided
to serve the site.
d. The relatively great distances between the site and the nearest residential developments serve
as effective buffers of uses and activities on the site, including light and noise.
e. Key intersections can be used to create focal points, and this segment of Main Street can be
unified under one streetscape and landscape theme.
f. Close proximity to Interstate 805, the water park, the amphitheater, the planned regional
park, and other potential land use attractions in the Otay Valley create the opportunity to
develop a coordinated theme and image for the Main Street corridor.
I. Development Concept
The Chula Vista Auto Park is intended to be a regional automobile sales and service destination
located within the Otay Valley Road Redevelopment Project Area. The existing 24-acre Auto Park
was constructed in 1991-1995. The Auto Park North expansion was approved in June 2003 and will
add approximately 39 acres to the Auto Park. The Auto Park East expansion will add approximately
31 acres to the Auto Park for a total of approximately 94 acres.
The Auto Park East Specific Plan would allow new car dealerships on at least 75 percent of the site.
The Specific Plan would allow the construction of at least 200,000 square feet of dealership
buildings, not including parking structures. The floor area for these buildings would vary depending
on the development proposals submitted for individual dealerships. These buildings would typically
include showrooms, offices, service stations, and parts departments. Up to 25 percent of the site
could be developed with supporting uses such as automotive repair and supply, service station, car
wash, and restaurants.
The development concept is illustrated in Exhibit "A."
