Consulting Engineers 106 unit apartment complex to be developed
San Diego on Edgemere Drive which they referred to tile
Planning Commission for further study and
"in effect placed a moratorium on the project."

action taken last week.

low cost housing, 8) time and investment
involved in site plans, grading plans, surveys,

Planning Commission on the EIR with public
input included in the report, and 10) com-
plete cooperation of the developer with the
Planning staff and Planning Commission.

adopted and a Conditional Use Permit granted
by the Planning Commission to build on the

Vista; Hr. Dean Dunphy, Dunphy Construction
Company, San Diego; Mr. Ted Bell, 70 Valecitos
Way, Chula Vista; and Joseph Lanz, 551 Wisteria,
Chula Vista spoke in opposition to the develop-
ment and in favor of having the zoning recon-
sidered by the Planning Commission and City
Council, making specific comments on the
following: 1) EIR procedures, 2) that the
Director of Planning had reservations that
the property was properly zoned as R-S, 3)
people directly affected should be given an
opportunity to be heard at a public hearing
where all concerns can be discussed, 4) the
EIR process is based on assumption that
property is properly zoned, 5) the proposed
development is an "island" surrounded by
industrial developments, 6) location on a
hillside will cause traffic problems, 7) no
sidewalks and no schools, 8) serious drainage
problem, 9) current developer only involved
since April 1976, 10) and whether the EIR
procedures were appropriate. Conclusions were
that the development should be delayed until
a proper determination could be made on the zoning.
City Council Meeting -3- October 5, 1976
Council discussion Council discussion ensued concerning scope
of review by staff and Planning Commission
limited by requirements of R-S zone and
development in the flood plain, unresolved
issues, complexity of problem, the EIR process,
timing on all procedures, and possible lia-
bility of City for drainage problems if any
result from the development.

scheduled to be considered by the Planning
Commission on October 28, 1976.

Rebuttal comments Mr. Xinos made some rebuttal remarks concerning
co~m~ents of those people speaking in opposition
to the development, particularly responding
to statements of personal interests involved,
EIR studies, concern of children in the area,
and the legal standing on this issue at this
point.
Public hearing Mr. Ronis stated that if the Council should
process requested negate their action of last week, the people
concerned would have no choice but to take
appropriate legal action to enjoin the City
from proceeding any further with the issuance
of permits until the zoning is resolved. He
again asked that the matter be settled through
the public hearing process.
Council has authority City Attorney Lindberg indicated that basic
to impose moratorium law as to vested rights in development of
land is that those rights do not vest until
a building permit is obtained and until such
time, the Council has the authority to impose
a moratorium to consider the rezoning of the
property.
