JOINT RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL AND THE
REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY OF THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA
APPROVING THE POLICE HEADQUARTERS MASTER PLAN FOR THE
CONSTRUCTION OF THE NEW POLICE HEADQUARTERS AT THE
COMMERCIAL CENTER SITE WITHIN THE TOWN CENTRE I
REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT AREA
WHEREAS, the City of Chula Vista has experienced significant growth and is projected to reach
build-out within the next twenty years; and
WHEREAS, staff has determined that the existing facility is significantly undersized and in order to
insure the quality and level of service provided by the Police Department it is necessary to construct a new
Police Headquarters; and
WHEREAS, on August 1, 2000, the City Council approved an agreement with Highland Partnership,
Inc. to prepare space needs programming and a conceptual design for the new Police Headquarters Facility;
and
WHEREAS, a site selection process was conducted and the Commercial Property located at the
southeast corner of 4th and F Street was identified as the preferred site because this site best met the
overall standards of law enforcement, and goals for provision of consolidated government; and
WHEREAS, the environmental document contemplated location of the new police headquarters at
four sites. Mitigation measures were defined for each location. The potential impacts of locating at the
commercial center and the associated mitigation measures are discussed in the Mitigated Negative
Declaration IS-01-017; and
WHEREAS, the Police Master Plan is consistent with the goals of the Town Centre I Project Area
including comprehensive beautification of the area; orienting people to the downtown core area; and
retention and expansion of viable uses including public facilities. The construction of the new Police
Facility at the Commercial site supports the redevelopment goals of Town Centre I by maintaining the
close proximity of the Police Force to downtown retailers.
WHEREAS, the City's Community Development Department Planning and Environmental Manager
reviewed the proposed Project and issued Mitigated Negative Declaration IS-01-017 for the project in
accordance with CEQA.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA does hereby find,
order, determine and resolve as follows:
1. The proposed project could have a significant impact on the environment however there will
not be a significant effect if the mitigation measures are implemented; accordingly Mitigated

Redevelopment Plan and shall implement the purpose thereof; the project shall assist with the
elimination of blight in the Project Area.
3. The City Council and Redevelopment Agency of the City of Chula Vista hereby approve the
Police Headquarters Master Plan in accordance with the Mitigation Measures and Monitoring
Program in the document attached thereto as Exhibit 1.
