Minutes - 3 February 25, 1986 PUBLIC HEARINGS AND RELATED RESOLUTIONS AND ORDINANCES 4. PUBLIC HEARING CONSIDERATION OF PROPOSAL TO AMEND LAND USE ELEMENT OF GENERAL PLAN - OTAY RIVER & PALM AVENUE, 1-805 AND WESTERLY RANCHO OTAY (Director of Planning) RESOLUTION 12385 APPROVING GPA-86-3 FOR THE DESIGNATION OF APPROXIMATELY 566 ACRES AS "LOW DENSITY RESIDENTIAL," "MEDIUM DENSITY RESIDENTIAL," AND "PARKS AND PUBLIC OPEN SPACE" ORDINANCE 2141 APPROVING PCZ-86-A FOR THE PREZONING OF APPROXIMATELY 566 ACRES AS "F-l" (FLOODWAY ZONE) AND "A-8" (AGRICULTURAL ZONE) - FIRST READING This being the time and place as advertised, Mayor Cox declared the public hearing open. The City of Chula Vista, on behalf of certain property owners, has initiated the reorganization of approximately 566 acres of territory, generally located between the Otay River and the easterly extension of the Palm Avenue right-of-way, and between 1-805 and the westerly line of the Rancho Otay in the City of San Diego, with the Local Agency Formation Commission. This proposed reorganization, called the "Otay Valley-Palm Avenue Reorganization," involves the deannexation of the subject acreage from the City of San Diego and the annexation of the said acreage to Chula Vista. The proposed General Plan amendment and prezoning would enable these processes to move forward. Planning Director Krempl submitted transparencies depicting the project boundaries and discussed: reorganization was initiated by the City Council in November 1985; San Diego City Council requested additional staff followup and study; pre-zoning approved by the Planning Comission on January 2, 1986; City of San Diego Rules Committee will consider reorganization on March 17; EIR was prepared by the City of San Diego; approximately 30% of property owners in the area have signed a petition in favor of this reorganization. Director Krempl recommended Council approve GPA-86-3 AND PCZ-86-A, in accordance with the recommendation of the Planning Commission and certify that the Otay Mesa Community Plan/EIR has been prepared in compliance with CEQA and the State CEQA Guidelines, and consider the EIR as it reaches a decision on the project. Minutes 4 February 25, 1986 In response to Councilwoman McCandliss's question, Director Krempl explained in terms of reorganization, it is possible to have zoning which is more restrictive than what is reflected in the General Plan. An interior designation of "agricultural floodway" is not restrictive. Any designation between that and what is ultimately reflected in the General Plan would be appropriate. There being no public testimony, the Mayor closed the public hearing. RESOLUTION OFFERED BY COUNCILWOMAN MCCANDLISS, the reading of the text was waived by unanimous consent, passed and approved unanimously. MSUC (McCandliss/Malcolm) to place the ordinance on first reading. 5. PUBLIC HEARING APPEAL OF CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT PCC-86-16; REQUEST TO CONVERT SERVICE STATION INTO MINI-MARKET WITH SELF-SERVICE GASOLINE AT 495 TELEGRAPH CANYON ROAD - ATLANTIC RICHEIELD COMPANY (Director of Planning) RESOLUTION 12386 DENYING CUP PCC-86~16 FOR MINI-MARKET AND SELF-SERVICE GAS AT 495 TELEGRAPH CANYON ROAD This being the time and place as advertised, the Mayor declared the public hearing open. Director Krempl submitted transparencies stating the applicant proposes to discontinue the auto repair service and convert and remodel the entire building into a retail market. The pump islands are to remain and be changed into self-service only. The proposed conversion results in the market becoming a major use of the property, together with gas sales. The applicant also proposes to replace the pole sign with a monument sign which measures 15-1/2 feet long and has an overall height of 5-1/2 feet. Regarding traffic generation, the estimated average daily trips (ADT) on Telegraph Canyon Road at the freeway interchange is 24,760, compared to 49,780 projected at that location in 1995. Staff concluded there has been no change in circumstance since 1981 when the Commission and Council denied the prior application. In fact, with the growth in population east of 1-805 since 1981, the subject full service station is even more important to serve the needs of surrounding residents and freeway users, and the proposed mini-market is not required to serve those needs by virtue of the proximity of the other shops in the Telegraph Canyon Center. Therefore, the recommendation of the Planning Commission and staff was for denial of the appeal. Minutes 5 February 25, 1986 Mayor Cox acknowledged receipt of a petition containing 162 signatures of individuals opposing the proposed conversion of the ARCO station to a mini-market. C. Samuel Blick, Fairbanks Ranch Plaza, Attorney representing ARCO, addressed the scope of the project noting: little change in terms of type of use; station currently operates on a 24-hour basis; elimination of the auto repair facilities; the site is being brought up to City's conformance; no evidence to support arguments opposing the CUP; market study has been prepared by ARCO; over 750 mini-market sites currently operating and none have failed; anticipated increase in traffic is unfounded; submitted petition signed by 91 individuals (70 Chula Vista residents) in support of this use. In response to Councilwoman's McCandliss's questions, Mr. Blick remarked food service operations are a good use adjacent to freeways and the market study will find that auto repair facilities do not operate well at freeway entrances. Mr. Bill Ottman, 2072 Meadowview Lane, Costa Mesa 92627, representing WJO, Inc., discussed the market study performed on the project noting: ARCO is concerned with successful projects; a mathematical review of 230 A.M./P.M. mini-markets has been made; there are approximately 12,000 residents within a one-mile radius of this project; compared the 7-11 convenience store and Von's grocery store located nearby; increased traffic during peak hours (7-8:30 a.m. and 4-6 p.m.); most auto repair facilities in Chula Vista are located on Broadway. In answer to Councilman Scott's question, Mr. Ottman replied an approximate 15-20% increase in gasoline sales can be attributed to an accompanying mini-market (or ~50,000 increase). Mr. Don Chrislock, 349 E. Moss, Chula Vista 92010, owner of the service station, supported this proposal stating a small operation cannot support itself without such a use. The station currently services approximately 1,500 customers per day so traffic is already there. In answer to Mayor Cox's questions, Mr. Chrislock pointed out the following percentages: 15% attributed to auto repair work, 15% attributed to snack shop sales, and 70% attributed to gasoline sales. Messrs. Bob Gilmore, 484 Hale Street, and Gary O. Wilson, 490 Hale Street, spoke in opposition to the proposed conversion. Their concerns involved: petition in favor of the project was presented at the cash register and is not an accurate reflection of surrounding residents; incompatible land use; commercial zones abutting residential zones; more nighttime noise and lights; Minutes 6 - February 25, 1986 litter dumped over fence into private property; loitering; increased traffic; existing business serves its purpose; college within two miles and proposed prison will add to traffic congestion; station robbed within the last 2-3 days. Mr. Frank Wells, 4337 Fairlawn Drive, La Canada 91011, representing ARCO noted a few of the successful mini-market conversions in E1 Cajon, Solana Beach, Mission Viejo, and E1 Toro. The proposed conversion would generate an additional 300 patrons per day. Regarding the increased noise and lights due to a 24-hour operation, Mr. Wells pointed out the station currently operates on a 24-hour basis. ARCO is sensitive to the community's needs regarding lighting on the rear of the property--would be provided without shedding light on surrounding residences. Federal and State laws provide tight controls over these franchises. Finally, present security discourages robberies and vandalism. Further Council discussion involved alternative uses for the site, 9 conditions of approval required for a CUP, existing traffic problems in the area, additional vehicular traffic, project should not sacrifice safety of the neighborhood, and curb cuts located at this location. RESOLUTION OFFERED BY COUNCILMAN MALCOLM, the reading of the text was waived by unanimous consent, passed and approved unanimously. Mayor Cox reiterated the Council's action was to deny the Conditional Use Permit on PCC-86-16 for the mini-market and self-service station at 495 Telegraph Canyon Road. 6. PUBLIC HEARING LOCAL COASTAL PROGRAM AMENDMENTS (Director of Planning) At the Planning CommisSion meeting of February 13, 1986, this item was continued to their meeting of February 26, 1986.

REPORT PROPOSED CONVERSION OF ORANGE TREE MOBILEHOME PARK AND OUTLINE OF CITY MOBILEHOME PARK ASSISTANCE PROGRAM (Community Development Director) RESOLUTION 12397 APPROVING CO-APPLICATION WITH ORANGE TREE MOBILEHOME PARK RESIDENT'S ASSOCIATION FOR STATE MOBILEHOME PARK CONVERSION ASSISTANCE Minutes - 12 February 25, 1986 At the request of the City Council, the Community Development Department has been exploring appropriate forms of Mobilehome Park Conversion Assistance. Recently, the Residents Association of Orange Tree Mobilehome, a 154-space park at 521 Orange Avenue, asked the City to assist them in several ways in acquiring the park and converting it to resident ownership. The Association is under extreme time constraints associated with the purchase escrow and the funding cycle for state assistance. As a result, the City is being asked for commitments in the absence of information necessary to determine the housing assistance benefits and amount of financial assistance and in the absence of a formalized City assistance program. In response, conditional support is recommended and discussion of an assistance program is provided for consideration. Community DevelOpment Director Desrochers recommended Council provide direction as to their desire to have a Mobilehome Conversion Program formulated. Councilman Scott requested assurance that this item is for preliminary approval only. In response, Assistant Community Development Director Gustafson stated due to lack of more specific information, staff recommends conditional approval only. The Council is requested to consider the nature of this form of approval and endorse it in concept.

Ms. Sue Loftin, Continental Associates, 7970 Convoy Court, San Diego 92111, representing the mobilehome park residents stated this is a "worst case" situation. The mobilehome park owner is in bankruptcy and has two backup offers if this one falls through. Without City or State assistance, mobilehome park residents will not be able to obtain the full amount of required interim financing. Action by the Council tonight would not bind the City to loan specific funds. Assistant Director Gustafson clarified the resolution is for a co-application with Orange Tree Mobilehome Park specifically. RESOLUTION OFFERED BY COUNCILMAN MALCOLM, the reading of the text was waived by unanimous consent, passed and approved unanimously. 18.

It was recommended Council concur with the recommendation of the Task Force to accept the Final Draft of the RFP subject due to the following revisions: 1. Section 2B.2g: "Tandem parking shall not count toward the required number of off-street parking spaces." 2. Section 4B.ld: "Landscaping provided between open parking spaces and the buildings." City Manager Goss informed Council that due to the Gramm-Rudman deficit-reduction act, the project has been scaled down from 200-180 units. Ms. Martha Gorman, 1825 Citadel Court, Chula Vista, Chairman of the Navy Housing Task Force stated the meetings were very educational, effective, and beneficial to the Task Force members, community, and the Navy. The task force is in favor of the RFP with some exceptions, particularly deletion of "garage only."

REPORT EL RANCHO DEL REY OUT PARCEL LOCATED AT THE NORTHWEST CORNER OF EAST "J" STREET AND PASEO RANCHERO (Director of Planning) On February 18, 1986, the City Council expressed concern that a certain 10-acre "out-parcel" situated within the E1 Rancho del Rey Specific Plan Area, and located in the northwesterly quadrant of East "J" Street (extended) and Paseo Ranchero (proposed), has an authorized gross residential density range of 8-12 du/ac, even though adjacent lands are held to residential densities of 2-4 and 6-8 du/ac. The Planning Department has reviewed the overall layout of the land use and density authorized under the recently revised E1 Rancho del Rey Specific Plan, as depicted on its plan diagram and has compared and contrasted it with the land use and density patterns authorized under the original E1 Rancho del Rey Specific Plan. The department also evaluated its rationale for recommending the higher (medium) density ranges for the site in both the original and revised Specific Plans. Staff recommended they be instructed to prepare a draft amendment to the E1 Rancho del Rey Specific Plan which would reduce the authorized gross residential density of the out-parcel in question from 8-12 dwelling units per gross acre. Director Krempl remarked staff did not formulate a recommendation, per se, but felt enough change had taken place to warrant filing an application and scheduling a public hearing in consideration of this item.

Therefore, he suggested the recommendation be altered. (Councilman Malcolm left the meeting at this time.)
