REPORT PROPOSED STATEMENT OF INTENTIONS - OLYMPIC TRAINING CENTER/Director of Planning) RESOLUTION APPROVING A "STATEMENT OF INTENTION" WITH EASTLAKE DEVELOPMENT COMPANY CONCERNING AN OLYMPIC TRAINING CENTER SITE AND RELATED FUTURE PHASES OF THE EASTLAKE PLANNED COMMUNITY On November 12, 1988, the United States Olympic Committee Executive Board selected a 150 acre site within the EastLake property for the San Diego Olympic Training Center. The EastLake Development Company is requesting Council approve the "Statement of Intentions to enlist City support of the program. Mayor pro tempore Nader commented he supports the Resolution but is concerned with EastLake's request for consideration of the upper range of the density planned for Scenario 4 of the General Plan, stating the full Council had no previous knowledge of this request. Mayor pro Tempore Nader stressed, for the record, this statement of intention is a total non-binding consideration of density bonuses in advance of a public hearing. Steve Gilles, 1981 Rue Michelle, 92013, an EastLake homeowner spoke for the EastLake I Community Homeowners Association and urged Council support for the staff recommendation to expedite the project. Robert Santos, 900 Lane Avenue, 92107, EastLake Development Company, gave a brief history on the item which resulted in their being considered for the Olympic Training site within EastLake's property. At that time, EastLake stressed to the Sports Training Foundation that the City of Chula Vista was then considering a General Plan Update. The Statement of Intention being considered is necessary to give a clear indication to the sports facility that the City does want this to occur within a definite time frame; the Foundation must show progress toward operation by 1991. It was emphasized by Mr. Santos that the proposal is consistent with the City's General Plan Scenario 4 being processed MINUTES 13 February 7, 1989 by the City and reflects EastLake's interpretation of what densities could be provided in conjunction with the major quasi-public uses with no deviation from threshholds. Mr. Santos stated EastLake understands the implications and limitations but needs the support of the City to move toward this major facility which will have international recognition with "win-win-win" situation for everyone. Councilwoman McCandliss referred to the Processing Schedule on page 3 of the Staff Report where it speaks to the possible defermerit of other developer-projects. City Manager Goss explained resources will be provided to expedite all projects for development as they come to the City; precise conflicts are unknown at this time. Peter Watry, 81 Second Avenue, 92010, CROSSROADS, reported on a presentation made to Crossroads which supports the project. The fact that EastLake wants a density bonus is not unreasonable and noted the less amount of traffic versus if homes were located at this site. Mr. Watry read the City acknowledgements within the Statement of Intention and stated his concern the Council not bind itself in any way at this time. Director of Planning Krempl stated for the record, that the Department concurs with the statements made by Council, the applicant and by Mr. Watry and this does not sanction any density on the property, or entitlemerits made; it is recognized EastLake is making application and, since it appears to be within the · parameters of Scenario 4 of the General Plan as well as consideration of an alternate Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the Olympic Training Site, commitment is now made only to facilitate a processing schedule to bring back to Council in August 1989. Chris Chase, 1955 Rue Michelle, as a resident of EastLake stated his appreciation for the quality of life enjoyed by his family, and as Executive Director of the YMCA, stated his "excitement" for the proposed facility in the City of Chula Vista. Michael J. Roark, 3645 Proctor Valley Road, Bonita, stated support of the project as a resident and the support of the Boys and Girls Club of Chula Vista.
