Mr. Peterson discussed the grading required, the develop-
ment of Otay Lakes Road, the cost and the request of the
applicant for four lots for economic reasons.
Mr. Peterson said that since this lot is independently
owned, the staff could find no significant reason to deny
the request and!therefore, it is staff's recommendation
that (1] the Council certify the EIR-79-4, (2) find, in
accordance with Section D-3 of the staff report, that a
lower density is not economically feasible, and (3) issue
Section D-4 of the staff report as the Council's statement
of overriding considerations and approve the precise plan
for the four lots.

pression that this parcel was part of their open space
area, and questions of possible obstruction of views from
the homes.

as the result of grading slopes, no time limitation for
development of precise plans, designation of Otay Lakes
Road as a scenic highway (avoiding .excessive grading and
maintaining landscaping) cost of improvements to Otay Lakes
Road, and ingress and egress to the development.

San Diego economic problem in constructing Otay Lakes Road, delays
due to change in ownership, grading of the property in
accordance with Hillside Development Manual, equestrian
trail, and proposed landscaping of the development. He
asked that the Council give favorable consideration to
the fourth lot, indicating that the concerns of adjacent
property owners can be resolved.

There are four alternatives under consideration: (1)
Four lanes w{th parking; (2) four lanes without parking;
(3) four lanes with limited parking; and (4) "no project."
The Town Centre Project Area Committee has recommended
Alternative #1 (standard four-lane roadway with parking).
Staff recommended that action be deferred until the final
negative declaration is approved by the Federal Highway
Administration.
City Engineer Lippitt described the project - to widen the
existing substandard street of 56 feet from Curb to curb to
a width of 64 feet, curb to curb, between "G" and ~'H", and
"I" and "K" Streets. He explained that the portion between
"H" and "I" will be developed jointly by the City and the
County when the Court complex is constructed.
Mr. Lippitt outlined the proposed widening of the street,
the funding, projected costs, traffic patterns and problems
alternate parking proposals, bus turnouts, accident rates,
maintenance requirements (if improvements are not made),
landscaping suggestions relocating and retaining palm trees}
and proposed left-turn pocket on "G" Street and left turn
lanes.
Correction to He stated that a correction must be made in the Negative
Negative Declaration Declaration to include consideration of the Saint Rose of
Lima School along with a study.
Yolanda Salazar Ms. Salazar said she owns a beauty salon close to "G"
411 Third Avenue Street. She said any loss of parking in that area would be
Chula Vista detrimental to her business and she spoke against elimi-
nating parking spaces.
Greg Vigil Mr. Vigil said he operates the Bradley Dry Cleaners (close
68 Fifth Avenue to the beauty salon) and concurs that loss of parking would
Chula Vista hurt his business.

Barry Crane Mr. Crane said he was the Business Manager for the Roman
293 "H" Street Catholic Diocese in San Diego, who operate the Saint Rose
Chula Vista of Lima School on Third Avenue between "H" Street and
Alvarado. They are protesting the Negative Declaration,
specifically noting statements that "No schools, archae-
ological sites or habitat areas are located in the vicinity
of the project and consequently would not be affected
adversely." Mr. Crane said that any action of the Council
on this matter based on the Negative Declaration would
adversely affect the school and would be premature and
inappropriate.
In response to a query from Councilman Gillow, Mr. Crane
said the concern of the school is that the learning envi-
ronment will be affected by the parking and traffic noise
when the street is widened.
Letter received City Clerk Jennie Fulasz noted for the record that a letter
