2. PUBLIC HEARING:
Consideration of Amendment to the Eastlake 11 General
Develooment Pl an, Eastlake Greens Sect i ona 1 Pl anni ng
Area Plan and Eastlake I Planned District ReQulations
PCM-92-03
A. BACKGROUND
Thi s item i nvo 1 ves the cons iderat i on of an amendment to the Eastlake II
Genera 1 Development Pl an, Eastlake Greens Sect i ona 1 Planni ng Area Pl an
and the Eastlake I (Expansion) Planned District Regulations to allow the
transfer of 69 dwelling units from six parcels within Eastlake Greens to
Parcels R-24 and R-25. The transfer would increase the density of R-24
and R-25 from 4,5 du/ac to 10 du's per acre. This is the maximum density
permitted by the General Plan in the low Medium Residential land use
category, The overall number of dwell i ng un i ts withi n Eastlake Greens
would remain the same (2,774) as previously approved in 1989.
B. RECOMMENDATION
1. Certify the attached addendum (IS-92-Q4) to the previously certified EIR
(SEIR-86-4) for EastLake Greens.
2. Adopt a motion recommending that the City Council approve the following
amendments:
a. Amend the land use designations on the EastLake II General Development
Plan on Parcels R-24 and R-25 from Low Medium Residential to Medium
Residential (see Exhibits B and B-1); and
b. Amend the density on the EastLake Greens Sectional Planning Area Plan
for Parcels R-24 and R-25 from 4.5 dwelling units per acre to 10.0
dwelling units per acre (see Exhibits C and C-1); and
c. Amend the EastLake I (expansion) Planned Community District
Regulations for Parcels R-24 and R-25 from RC-22 to RC-1O (Exhibit D),
C. DISCUSSION
This is a request from the Eastlake Development Company to transfer 69
dwelling units within the Eastlake Greens project. The Eastlake Greens
SPA Plan allows for the transfer of dwellin9 units from one residential
category to another within the SPA Plan. In addition to the SPA Plan
the cl usteri ng pol icy of the General Plan is also appl i cabJ..8,., to thi ~
request.
In reviewing the General Plan policy (Section 6.3 of the land Use
Element), it is clear that the EastLake Greens project is a "clustered"
p:oject with in the low Med i urn 1 and use category because there is a
mlxture of open space (golf course) and higher densities scattered
throughout the project. The clustering policy in the General Plan limits
clustere,d proje,cts t,o a maximum of 10 du/ac on on any parcel designated
low Medlum Resldentlal. The proposed transfer of dwell ing units would
comply with this policy.

The EastLake SPA Plan and the EastLake General Development Plan currently
designates R-24 as Low Medium and this is proposed to be changed to
Medium Residential. The Planned Community District Regulations would
also change to Residential Condominium 10.
Parcel R-24 is a 5-acre site located across the street from the community
park at the intersection of EastLake Parkway (4 lanes - 100' R/W) and
Greensgate Drive (4 lanes - 100' R/W). The other abutting street is
Greensview Drive which is a 2-lane (68' R/W) loop street linking together
the various residential neighborhoods with the EastLake Greens project.
The parcel to the south of R-24 is R-14 which is planned for
s i ngl e- famil y detached development cons i st i ng of 84 homes on 11. 4 acres
(7.4 du/ac). Single-family homes are also being constructed on R-5 to
the east. Parcel R-19 is located to the north and is planned for
attached townhomes at 10.6 du/ac.
All of the requ i red pub 1 i c fac il it i es and improvements (streets,
utilities, etc.) have been installed to serve R-24. The community park
and Phase I of the new EastLake High School are also under construction.
Parcel R-25 is located on EastLake Parkway and Clubhouse Drive, directly
to the east of EastLake High School. R-25 is 7.4 acres in size and is
proposed to be changed from 4.5 dulac to 10 du/ac. The corresponding
amendments to the EastLake II General Development Plan (Medium
Residential) and PC District Regulations (PC 10) are companion parts of
the proposal.
R-25 is bordered by a planned elementary school site (10.0 acres) to the
south, the EastLake High School to the west (49.2 acres), R-14
(single-family detached 7.4 du/ac) to th north and single-family attached
(7.6 du/ac) to the east. R-25 is graded and fully improved with streets
and uti 1 it i es.
Both R-24 and R-25 have partial views of Holes 7 and 17 of the EastLake
Greens golf course and are well located for medium density development.
Each parcel will be subject to site plan and design review by the Design
Review Committee. The proposed medium density is compatible with the
surrounding uses, both existing and proposed.
The cert i fi ed Envi ronmental Impact Report for EastLake II General
Development Pl an and the EastLake Green SPA Pl an (Case No. EIR-86-4 and
State Clearinghouse Number 86052803) evaluated the impacts of the a much
higher density for these parcels (Residential High, 18-27 du/ac) land use
category for R-24 and R-25. R-24 was originally planned for 21.9 dulac
(110 du) and R-25 was originally planned for 22.0 dulac (163 du's).
Duri ng the City revi ew of the EastLake Greens SPA Pl an, the EastLake
Development Company reduced the density to 4.5 dulac for these two
parce 1 s. Therefore, the previ ous 1 y cert i fi ed EIR cited above evaluated
the impacts of densities greater than the current proposal. An addendum
to the previously certified EIR has been issued by the City's
Environmental Review Coordinator.

The proposed transfer of 69 units (R-24 + 28 and R-25 + 41) from Parcels
R-2 (-3), R-8 (-3), R-9 (-6), R-13 (-7), R-17 (-29) and R-19 (-21) would
improve the EastLake Greens SPA Plan by providing a more balanced land
use plan for these twoparce 1 s whi ch are located withi n the transi t ion
zone between the EastLake Parkway Activity Corridor and the single-family
neighborhoods around the golf course. Each of these parcels (R-24 and
R-24) are well served (3 sides) with street access which will promote
design flexibility and good site plan opportunities for a clustered
project design. Each parcel will be reviewed by the Design Review
Committee to ensure that on-site open space/recreational facilities are
provided to qualify as clustered projects.
The attached Exhibit A (prepared by EastLake Development Company) describes the
number of transferred units, the affected parcels, and the reason for the 69 excess unit.
The attached Site Utilization Map (Exhibit B) shows the location of each of the affected
parcels.

INTRODUCTION
These Planned Community (PC) District Regulations are adopted pursuant to
Title 19, Zoning, of the Chula Vista Municipal Code and are intended to
implement and integrate the Chula Vista General Plan, the General Development
Plan, and the Sectional Planning Area Plans (SPAs) for EastLake I, EastLake
Greens and EastLake Trails. These regulations set forth the development and
use standards for all property within EastLake I Planned Community District
by establishing:
setbacks;
building heights;
parking requirements;
landscape requirements;
use restrictions;
animal regulations;
density of development;
lot size, width and depth;
fencing requirements; and,
signing regulations.
The PC District Regulations, along with the various SPA Plans, delineate
precisely the allowable use of the property.
The PC District Regulations are organized into four basic land use districts:
Residential;
Vi 11 age Center;
Business Center; and
Special Purpose.
Each of these four basic districts is further broken down into specific land
use districts:

in a predominantly residential area, shall take into consideration compatibil-
ity with the residential area.
A. Relationship to Buildings: Signs located upon a lot with only one main
building housing the use which the sign identifies, shall be designed to
be compatible with the predominant visual elements of the building, such
as construction materials, color, or other design details. Each sign
located upon a lot with more than one main building, such as a shopping

predominant visual design elements common or similar to all such build-
ings or the buildings occupied by the "main tenants" or principal uses.
The Planning Director may condition approval of any sign to require such
visual elements to be incorporated into the design of the sign where such
element(s) is necessary to achieve a significant visual relationship
between the sign and building or buildings.
B. Relationship to other signs: Where there is more than one (1) freestand-
ing sign located upon a lot, all such signs shall have designs which are
complementary to each other by either similar treatment or incorporation

ports) ;
2. Letter style of sign copy;
3. Type or method used for supports, uprights or structure on which
sign is supported;
4. Sign cabinet or other configuration or sign area; or
5. Shape of entire sign and its several components.
C. Landscaping: Each freestanding sign shall be located in a planted land-
scaped area which is of a shape, design and size (equal to at least the
maximum allowable sign area) that will provide a compatible setting and
ground definition to the sign. The planted landscaped area shall be
maintained in a neat, healthy and thriving condition.

Greens SPA Plan from 2,774 dwelling units to 2,926 dwelling
units total and EastLake II General Development Plan (from
4,034 dwelling units to 4,186 dwelling units total), which
includes EastLake Trails.
To accomplish this density increase, the developer is
proposing that the density on parcels R-24 and R-25 be
administratively increased from 4,5 dwelling units per acre to
10 dwelling units per acre by transferring 69 dwelling units
from six other parcels which would be decreased as follows:

21
The density on parcels R-27 and R-28 is proposed to be
increased to 10 dwelling units per acre as a density bonus for
benefits proposed to be derived from ten years of public play
at EastLake Greens Country Club.
Previous Environmental Review
A Supplemental Environmental Impact Report (SEIR 86-4) was
prepared for the Eastlake Greens Sectional Planning Area (SPA)
Plan and Eastlake Trails Pre-Zone and Annexation in June 1989.
The SEIR analyzed the proposed development of Eastlake Greens
which consisted of 3,609 dwelling units. Eastlake Greens was
approved by the city Council for 2,774 dwelling units. The
proposed plan amendment to add an additional 152 units will
bring the total for Eastlake Greens to 2,926 dwelling units
which is still 686 dwelling units less than SEIR 86-4
analyzed. Refer to Section E, "Identification of
Environmental Effects", for additional details regarding SEIR
86-4.
C. Compatibility with Zoninq and Plans
The density currently approved for the parcels'in question is
4.5 dwelling units per acre as specified in the EastLake II
General Development Plan. The proposal includes transferring
densities as well as increasing densities through a density
bonus in conjunction with pUblic use of the golf course. The
Planning Department has determined that the subject transfer
of the 69 units to parcels R-24 and R-25 is not subject to a
General Plan Amendment but rather an amendment to the site
Utilization Plan for Eastlake Greens. The increase in density
for parcels R-27 and R-28 will be the subject of a SPA
Amendment, both of which are proposed at this time.

D. Comcliance with the Threshold/standards Policv
1. Fire/EMS
The Threshold/Standards Policy requires that fire and
emergency medical units must be able to respond
throughout the city to calls within seven minutes or less
in 85 % of the cases and within five minutes or less in
75 % of the cases.
According to the Fire Department estimated reaction time
at present exceeds threshold standards. Refer to Section
E, "Identification of Environmental Effects", below
regarding the mitigation measurers addressed in the
Eastlake Greens SEIR for fire service.
2. Police
The Threshold/Standards Policy requires that police units
be able to respond to 84% of Priority 1 calls within
seven minutes or less and maintain an average response
time to all Priority 1 calls of 4.5 minutes or less.
Police units must respond to 62% of Priority 2 calls
within 7 minutes or less and maintain an average response
time to all Priority 2 calls of 7 minutes or less. The
Police Department has indicated that there would be no
problem adequately servicing the project as proposed.
The project, therefore, is considered to be compatible
with the City's policy.
J. Traffic
The Threshold/Standard Policy requires that all
intersections operate at a Level of Service (LOS) "c" or
better, with the exception that LOS "D" may occur at
signalized intersections for a period not to exceed a
total of two hours per day. Intersections west of I-805
are not to operate at a LOS below their 1987 LOS. No
intersection shall operate at a LOS "E" or "F" during the
average weekday peak hour. Intersections of arterial
with freeway ramps are exempt.
Traffic issues were dealt with extensively in the
Eastlake Greens SEIR. Although the EIR does identify
Traffic as a significant impact, mitigations are included
that reduce the level of impact to less than significant.
SEIR 86-4 addressed a project of J,609 dwelling units.
The proposed project calls for 2,926 dwelling units.
Therefore, the mitigations identified in the SEIR are
adequate to mitigate the proposed increase in density.
Refer to Section E, "Identification of Environmental
Effects", below regarding the mitigation measurers
-J-
addressed in the Eastlake Greens SEIR for traffic
circulation.
4. Park/Recreation
The Threshold/Standards Policy for Parks and Recreation
is 3 acres/l,oOO population. The project is estimated to
increase the population by 425 persons. 1.275 additional
acres of land dedicated for park and recreational use
would be required to meet this threshold. To meet these
City requirements the developer will have to pay
additional PAD fees for the increased number of dwelling
uni ts. Fees will be based on the revised pad fee
schedule.
5. Drainage
The Threshold/Standard Policy requires that water flows
and volumes must not exceed City Engineering Standards.
Individual projects are required to provide necessary
improvements consistent with the Drainage Master Planes)
and City Engineering Standards. The project will be
served by existing offsite drainage facilities plus
proposed on-site drainage facilities which are to be
constructed when the project is developed. Future
improvements include the installation of 18 inch
reinforced concrete piping in units 24 and 28 and
desilting basins in both those units.
6 , Sewer
The Threshold/Standards Policy requires that sewage flows
and volumes must not exceed city engineering standards.
The proposed project could generate an estimated increase
of 843 pounds per day of solid waste and an estimated
increase of 25,980 gallons per day of liquid waste. The
following existing sewer lines would be adequate to serve
the proposed project: unit 24 - 8" PVC in Greensgate
Drive and 12" PVC in EastLake Parkway plus 8" PVC stub to
property line; unit 25 - 8" PVC in EastLake Parkway; unit
27 - 15" PVC in Hunte Parkway; UNit 28 - 8" PVC in
Clubhouse Drive with 8" PVC stub to property line at east
end of unit. The proposed project complies with
established threshold standards, therefore, the existing
facilities would be adequate to serve the project.
7. Water
The Threshold/standards
storage, treatment and
constructed concurrently
Policy requires that adequate
transmission facilities are
with planned growth and that
-4-
water quality standards are not jeopardized during growth
and construction.
Water availability issues are addressed in the Eastlake
Greens SEIR. Although the EIR does identify water
availability as a significant impact, mitigations are
included that reduce the level of impact to less than
significant. Refer to Section E, "Identification of
Environmental Effects", below regarding the mitigation
measurers addressed in the Eastlake Greens SEIR for water
availability.
E. Identification of Environmental Effects
As previously mentioned, a Supplemental Environmental
Impact Report (SEIR 86-4) was prepared for EastLake
Greens. The SEIR was prepared as a supplement to the
Master EIR which addressed the entire EastLake
development. The four parcels included in the suibject
General Development Permit amendment were included in
Eastlake Master EIR and Eastlake Green Supplemental EIR,
the analysis and mitigation measures covered in the SEIR
will serve as mitigation for this proposed project. The
Eastlake Greens Supplemental EIR is hereby incorporated
by reference into this Negative Declaration. Topics
analyzed in the SEIR include:
Land Use
Transportation and Circulation
Services/Utilities
Water Availability
Sewer Services
Educational Facilities
Police Protection
Fire Protection

F. Summarv of Analvses of Threshold/Standards
Fire Protection
The City Fire Department Bureau of Fire Prevention has
made the following recommendations that shall be adhered
to in order to facilitate fire safety and prevention and
reduce any fire related impacts to a level of less than
significant.
Mitiaation
1. Pay required impact fees to defray the cost of new
fire station/facilities, equipment and personnel
required to adequately serve the area as described
in the Fire Station Master Plan. This would
include contributions by the applicant to the
expansion of facilities, including the relocation
of Station #4 toward the project area or EastLake I
area and the provision of a new station on East H
Street.
2. Ensure the provision of adequate water pressure to
meet the City's fire flow and pressure requirements
through the installation of pressure reduction
valves either on site or on the fire trucks.
Water
In order to mitigate any demand on water resources to the
region which is frequently subject to drought, and to
comply with the city's no net increase policy, the
following mitigation measures shall be complied with by
the applicant:
Mitiaation
1. The applicant hereby agrees to participate in
whatever water conservation program, no net
increase in water consumption, or fee-off-set
program the City of Chula Vista has in effect at
the time of building permit issuance.
2. Installation of low flow toilets, ultra low flow
shower heads, faucet aerators, hot water pipe
insulation and pressure reducing valves will be
required.
3,
Water conserving irrigation
tolerant landscaping, and
grading/construction practices
systems, drought
water conserving
will be required.
-6-
Traffic/Circulation
Cumulative traffic impacts are detailed in SEIR 86-4
together with the phasing of circulation improvements
including improvements that need to be coordinated with
the construction of state Route 125. EastLake II can only
fully buildout if state Route 125 is constructed between
Telegraph Canyon road and state Route 54 as a four-lane
freeway in order to achieve acceptable level of service
within the proposed development area.
Mitiqation
In the SEIR both short term cumulative and site specific
impacts were identified. As part of the mitigation for
these impacts, the Eastern Territories Capital
Improvements Program was to be developed specifying
funding techniques and tying the issuance of building
permits to the construction of street improvements.
In particular the SEIR analysis indicated site specific
and cumulative impacts along Telegraph Canyon Road east
of proposed state Route 125. In order to mitigate these
specific impacts the following must be completed:
1. Improve Telegraph Canyon Road between state Route
125 and the EastLake Greens/Trails boundary to six
lane prime arterial standards.
2. Construct Hunte Parkway and EastLake Parkway as
major roads between Telegraph Canyon Road and
Orange Avenue.
3. Construction of a southbound state Route 125 to
eastbound Telegraph Canyon Road loop ramp at the
state Route 125/Telegraph Canyon Road intersection
or extend state Route 125 south to East Palomar
street (which would connect to the EastLake II
street system).
To mitigate off site cumulative impacts to insignificant
levels, the applicant would be required to participate in
the East Chula vista Transportation Phasing Plan on a
fair share basis with other area developers. The phasing
plan will be required to link road improvements to the
issuance of building permits and specified thresholds to
insure that improvements are completed when capacity is
needed. Internal loop streets shall be constructed to
Class II collector standards. Entry roads shall be
widened to accommodate a median.
-7-
Traffic signals shall be installed at intersections of
major roads with prime arterial and project access points
with Circulation Element streets where signal warrants
are met. Traffic signals shall also be constructed at
both north and south entry roads with the project
loopstreet. Signals shall be installed if warrants are
met and the City Engineer determines they are needed.
The applicant shall meet all the transit requirements
outlined in SEIR 86-4.
Soils/Geoloav
Detailed preliminary geotechnical investigations of the
EastLake Green project were conducted by Leighton and
Associates, Inc. and San Diego Soils Engineering, Inc.
Highlights of findings will be summarized herein. See
SEIR 86-4 including the pertinent technical reports for
details.
There appears to be no significant geotechnical
constraints that cannot be mitigated with proper
planning, design and sound construction practices.
Concerns include expansive topsoils that would not
support foundations and bentonite clays which may be
unstable. No seismic faults are located on the site.
Small, woodframe residential structures would sustain
minimal damage if seismic activity occurred on the
closest fault over fifty miles away.
Mitiaation
Mitigation measures outlined in the Leighton and
Associates, Inc. and San Diego Soils Engineering, Inc.
reports shall all be complied with.
Schools
The proposed increase in density would have an impact on
the schools in terms of increased attendance.
Mitiaation
A special tax district, the Sweetwater Union High School
District Community Facility District No.1, was created
to mitigate the anticipated demands the EastLake Planned
Community would place on the schools. It is structured
so that as the number of permitted dwelling units are
increased or decreased, the amount of tax revenue to the
school is adjusted accordingly. Thus the resultant
impacts to the facilities are addressed. No additional
-8-
mitigation is required while Community Facilities
District No. 1 is in effect. Community Facilities
District No. 1 is used to provide one high school in the
EastLake Green area and a future junior high school
elsewhere in the district.
F. Mitiaation necessarv to avoid sianificant effects
Specific project mitigation measures have been required
to reduce potentially significant environmental impacts
identified in the initial study for this project to a
level of less than significant.
Mitigation measures have been made conditions of project
approval, as well as requirements of the attached
Mitigation Monitoring Program.
G. Findinas of Insianificant Impacts
Based on the following findings, it is determined that
the project described above will not have a significant
environmental impact and no environmental impact report
needs to be prepared,
1. The project has the potential to sUbstantially
degrade the quality of the environment,
substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or
wildlife species, cause fish or wildlife population
to drop below self-sustaining levels, threaten to
eliminate plant or animal community, reduce the
number or restrict the range of a rare or
endangered plant or animal, or eliminate important
examples of the major periods of California history
or prehistory.
This project is located on a site that has already
mostly been under agricultural cultivation and
therefore, has been disturbed and does not exist in
a natural state. The SEIR states: "No sensitive
animal species will be lost although low scrub
habitat, albeit considered marginal for the black-
tailed gnatcatcher, will be reduced. cactus Wren
habitat consisting of dense clumps of cholla is
located south of the site and will, therefore, be
retained. The general loss of open land upon
development of EastLake Green will adversely affect
raptors which are attracted to the area to hunt.
this loss of foraging habitat, however, is not
considered significant. The loss of the potential
pond and associated marsh and riparian elements
will eliminate potential habitat for a number of
declining animal species which are attracted to or
-9-
dependent on these particular habitats such as the
Least Bells Vireo, Yellow Warbler and two-striped
garter snake."
"The Salt Creek drainage, aside from the freshwater
marsh and tamarisk scrub, is disturbed. The Salt
Creek drainage does, however, have a potential for
becoming a high quality riparian habitat, if no
development occurs within the drainage. If native
or semi-native habitats are reconstructed or
allowed to develop within the Salt Creek drainage,
the effective blocking of this drainage with urban
development could preclude such results. However,
potential significant impacts to the existing
habitat are not expected to occur. Potential
biological impacts to the Salt Creek drainage
cannot be specifically analyzed at this time.
Further biological review will be required during
the tentative map stage."
The SEIR included as mitigation: " It is
recommended that upon development of the EastLake
Trails area, the park designation within the Salt
Creek drainage be left in its native habitat and
further enhanced to provide high-quality riparian
habitat. Loss of general foraging throughout the
agricultural areas of the project site would be
successfully mitigated by the enhancement of the
Salt Creek drainage."
2. The project has the potential to achieve short-term
environmental goals to the disadvantage of long-
term environmental goals.
The project will not achieve any short-term goals
to the disadvantage of long-term goals because the
long term goals would be achieved through
compliance to the City's threshold standards and
site preparation standards.
3. The project has possible effects are individually
limited but cumulatively considerable. As used in
the subsection, "cumulatively considerable" means
that the incremental effects of an individual
project are considerable when viewed in connection
with the effects of past projects, the effect of
other current projects, and the effects of probable
future projects, .
Although the project would create cumulative
impacts, such as temporary noise related impacts
related to construction activities, these impacts
-10-
are short-term and are not considered significant,
since they would occur during the construction
phase of the project.
The impacts to the surrounding community will be
incremental and the improvements will not cause
significant growth in the surrounding
community. There is no significant growth inducement
nor cumulative impact associated with this project,
provided that the city standards are complied with.
4. The environmental effects of the project will cause
substantial adverse effects on human beings, either
directly or indirectly.
-11-
The project will not result in any significant
increase in hazardous substances, the release of
emissions, or any significant increase in ambient
noise levels. The proposed project will not create
any substantial adverse impacts to human beings.

GENERAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN
AMENDMENT
RECOMMENDED FINDINGS
1. THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT DESCRIBED BY THE GENERAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN
AMENDMENT IS IN CONFORMITY WITH THE PROVISIONS OF THE CHULA VISTA GENERAL
PLAN.
The proposed amendment does not increase the number of dwelling units
within the boundaries of the General Development Plan, therefore, the
proposed amendment is in conformance with the Chula Vista General Plan.
2. A PLANNED COMMUNITY CAN BE INITIATED BY ESTABLISHMENT OF SPECIFIC USES OR
SECTIONAL PLANNING AREA WITHIN TWO YEARS OF THE ESTABLISHMENT OF THE
PLANNED COMMUNITY lONE.
The applicant has stated that plans for specific uses will be submitted
within the allowable timeframe.
3. IN THE CASE OF THE PROPOSED RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT, THAT SUCH DEVELOPMENT
SHALL CONSTITUTE A RESIDENTIAL ENVIRONMENT OF SUSTAINED DESIRABILITY AND
STABILITY; AND THAT IT WILL BE IN HARMONY WITH AND PROVIDE COMPATIBLE
VARIETY TO THE CHARACTER OF THE SURROUNDING AREAS AND THAT THE SITES
PROPOSED FOR PUBLIC FACILITIES SUCH AS SCHOOLS, PLAYGROUNDS, AND PARKS ARE
ADEQUATE TO SERVE THE ANTICIPATED POPULATION AND APPEAR ACCEPTABLE TO THE
PUBLIC AUTHORITIES HAVING JURISOICTION THEREOF.
The proposed amendment to the General Development Plan will transfer 69
approved dwelling units from Parcels R-2, R-8, R-9, R-13, R-17 and R-19 to
Parcels R-24 and R-25. This transfer of dwelling units will improve the
plan by providing a more balanced land use plan for the two parcels
receiving the dwelling units by creating a transition between the EastLake
Activity Corridor and the single-family detached neighborhoods around
the golf course.
4. IN THE CASE OF PROPOSED INDUSTRIAL AND RESEARCH USES, THAT SUCH
DEVELOPMENT WILL BE APPROPRIATE IN AREA, LOCATION, AND OVERALL DESIGN TO
THE PURPOSE INTENOED; THAT THE DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS ARE SUCH
AS TO CREATE A RESEARCH OR INDUSTRIAL ENVIRONMENT OF SUSTAINED
DESIRABILITY AND STABILITY; AND THAT SUCH DEVELOPMENT WILL MEET
PERFORMANCE STANDARDS ESTABLISHED BY THIS TITLE.
No industrial or research land uses are proposed for this project.
5. IN THE CASE OF INSTITUTIONAL, RECREATION, AND OTHER SIMILAR
NON-RESIDENTIAL USES, THAT SUCH DEVELOPMENT WILL BE APPROPRIATE IN AREA,
LOCATION, AND OVERALL PLANNING TO THE PURPOSE PROPOSED, AND THAT
SURROUNDING AREAS ARE PROTECTED FROM ANY ADVERSE EFFECTS FROM SUCH.
No institutional, recreation, or similar non-residential uses are proposed
within the area proposed for amendment.
6. THE STREETS AND THOROUGHFARES ARE SUITABLE AND ADEQUATE TO CARRY THE
ANTICIPATED TRAFFIC THEREON.
The Environmental Impact Report analyzed traffic that will be generated by
EastLake II as well as existing and proposed projects which will conform
to the Chula Vista General Plan and its Circulation Element.
The analysis demonstrated that EastLake II will construct or provide
funding for streets to carry the anticipated traffic in accordance with
the City's threshold criteria.
7. ANY PROPOSED COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT CAN BE JUSTIFIED ECONOMICALLY AT THE
LOCATION(S) PROPOSED AND WILL PROVIDE ADEQUATE COMMERCIAL FACILITIES OF
THE TYPES NEEDED AT SUCH PROPOSED LOCATION(S).
No commercial land uses are proposed for this project.
8. THE AREAS SURROUNDING SAID DEVELOPMENT CAN BE PLANNED AND ZONED IN
COORDINATION AND SUBSTANTIAL COMPATIBILITY WITH SAID DEVELOPMENT.
Road access will be provided to undeveloped parcels to the south and east
of this project. EastLake II is planned to represent the eastern edge of
urban development. The progression from higher densities in the west to
lower densities in the east is consistent with the nature of the projected
development on surrounding properties.

EAST LAKE GREENS
SECTIONAL PLANNING AREA
AMENDMENT
RECOMMENDED FINDINGS
1. THE PROPOSED SECTIONAL PLANNING AREA PLAN AMENDMENT IS IN CONFORMITY WITH
THE AMENDED EAST LAKE II GENERAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN AND THE CHULA VISTA
GENERAL PLAN.
The EastLake Greens Sectional Planning Area Plan reflects the land uses,
circulation system, open space and recreational uses, and public facility
uses consistent with the amended EastLake II General Development Plan and
the Chula Vista General Plan.
2. THE PROPOSED SECTIONAL PLANNING AREA PLAN AMENDMENT WILL PROMOTE THE
ORDERLY SEQUENTIALIZED DEVELOPMENT OF THE INVOLVED SECTIONAL PLANNING AREA.
The SPA Plan and Public Facilities Financing Plan contain provisions and
requirements to ensure the orderly, phased development of the project.
The Public Facilities Financing Plan specifies the public facility
projects required by EastLake Greens and also the regional facilities
needed to serve the proposed amendment.
3. THE PROPOSED SECTIONAL PLANNING AREA PLAN AMENDMENT WILL NOT ADVERSELY
AFFECT ADJACENT LAND USE, RESIDENTIAL ENJOYMENT, CIRCULATION, OR
ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY.
The land uses within EastLake Greens represent a continuation of the
master planned community elements established with the development of
EastLake . The major theme of EastLake Greens is the IS-hole golf course
surrounded by residential uses of various densities. The project has been
planned in a fashion to integrate well with adjacent land uses and to
avoid off-site impacts through the provision of mitigation measures
specified in the previously certified EastLake II Environmental Impact
Report.
