Ci ty Manager. Department Heads and the Finance Director for the city. The sewer funds collected by the City of Chula Vista from it's ratepayers, is ostensibly ear marked for sewer related work projects, since it is a captive fund. Sewer funds are being used by city administration, as a BANK. from which to borrow monies for the implementation of a shortfall in budgeted funds for the various departments. That these funds are paid back with interest. must not be a mitigation factor, in continuing this practice. The following is an itemization of recent borrowed fund transfers and their projected use. $50,000.00 to Building and Housing, for a Permit Tracking System, made in ,fiscal 1991-92. $50,000.00 to upgrade the city's telephone system, made in fiscal 1992-93. $420,000.00 to a Capitol Project Fund, for widening Otay Valley Road, made under Resolution 116706 of date January 30, 1992. $1,161,000.00 was approved under that same Resolution #16706, though the transaction mayor may not have taken place as yet. The sum total of the above City Council and Staff action is, that the sewer fees are much too high, for the intended use of operating the sewer maintenance and improvement projects.

This matter is herein brought to the attention of the City Council and Staff, that the practice should cease, pending a formal determination by the City Attorney, on the validity of the city using sewer funds as a BANK for city operations. That sewer fees should be scaled back to conform with their intended use, by that particular department. Borrowed monies should be repaid and restored to the sewer accounts, at the earliest possible date. Surplus sewer funds should be returned to the ratepayers from whom collected, and that a determination be made as to the proper sewer fee adjustment rate, collected for the purpose of administering the sewer division of the city.

Also installed at South Chula Vista will be thirty-three (33) six-button and two (2) sixteen-button NEC Series II Display telephones. In order to provide telephone voice input into the Library's overhead paging system a nine zone paging unit will also be installed and connected to the switch. On August 6, 1994, staff sent requests for proposals to three local companies who were authorized distributors of N.E.C. telephone equipment and advertised the existence of the RFP in the local newspapers. The three companies that responded were: COM-AID NEC ATEL Pr01lOsal $ 31,893.29 $ 36,538.32 $ 46,114.60 Location El Cajon San Diego San Diego 7"} Page 2, Item Meeting Date 11/01/94 The city Manager appointed a selection committee of the following individuals to evaluate the proposals: Louie Vignapiano David Palmer Rick Nelson Director of Management & Information Services Library Director Computer Operations Manager The proposals were evaluated based on ability to perform the necessary work, references and price. COM-AID offered the best price and their references clearly demonstrate their ability to satisfactorily perform the necessary work. The proposed contract costs are for the purchase of hardware to expand the capacity of the existing NEC NEAX 2400 telephone switch to accommodate the immediate needs of the Library and to provide telephone instruments and service to the South Chula Vista Library. The City of Chula Vista has not contracted with COM-AID for any other services in the past. l'isca1 IlIIDllct Money has been appropriated in the capital improvement project LB125 (South Chula Vista Library) and GG128 (Telephone System Upgrades) in FY 1994-95. $ 23,079.68 will be spent from LB125 and $ 8,813.61 will be spent from GG128. A total of $44,000 was budgeted for this equipment therefore the cost of $31,893.29 is within the budgeted amount. 7")..

BOARDS & COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Not applicable. DISCUSSION: The bid packages were mailed to seven (7) vendors including four vendors in San Diego County with five (5) responding on some of the items. The following is a summary of bids received, and lists only those bidders who responded on a particular item: Item 1 - Turf tractor w/front mounted mower Bidder Unit 7% Sales Tax ~ Included Pauley Equipment $20,850 $1,459.50 Escondida, CA Clairemont Equipment $19,747 $1,382.29 San Diego, CA Western Turf $23,030 $1,612.10 Corona Trade-in Allowance Net Amount $5,500 $16,809.50 $3,220 $17,909.29 $2,500 $22,142 10 The net low bid of Pauley Ford meets specifications and is acceptable.

A 1982 Toro Grandmaster, Property Tag #13670, will be traded-in upon purchase of the new vehicle. Item #3 - Turf Mower. 2 wheel drive Bidder Unit Price 7% Sales Tax Trade-in Net Amount Included Allowance Western Turf $14,275 $999 25 N/A $15,274.25 Corona, CA California Turf $14,894 $1,042.58 N/A $15,936.58 San Diego, CA The net low bid of Western Turf does not meet all of the bid specifications. The specifications state an adjustable steering wheel is required. Western Turf's (the apparent low bidder) Jacobson Model 1672-D Mower has a handle bar with a cable operated type of steering which is stiffer to steer. California Turf's Model 216-D Mower has adjustable steering wheel and solid linkage with pinion sector gear type steering, which meets specifications. This is an important requirement because it quickens response time for effortless steering, which makes it more responsive for the operator to maneuver around trees, picnic tables and other objects. Therefore, staff recommends the bid be awarded to California Turf. The cost for the Western Turf mower is $15,274.25 and the California Turf mower is $15,936.58. The difference is $662.33. This is a new equipment purchase with no trade-in. FISCAL IMPACT: Sufficient funds are provided for in the FY 94/95 equipment replacement budget for purchase of the two turf tractors with front mounted mowers. The total amount of the two mowers including 7% sales tax and trade- in allowance is $34,577.30. The total amount budgeted for the purchase is $45,471 resulting in a savings of $10,893.70. The existing mowers have a combined annual maintenance cost of $6,850 and operating cost of $719. We estimate the on-going maintenance cost will drop while operating cost will remain about the same. The savings will be reflected in the equipment maintenance charges account 100-1520-5269. During the 1994-95 budget process, Council appropriated $18,000 in Parks and Recreation budget for purchase of a new turf tractor. The total cost of the turf tractor is $15,936.58. The general fund amount saved from this purchase is $2,034.42. The on-going annual maintenance and operating cost budgeted in account 100- 1522-5269 is $1,300. . 9-~ " , RESOLUTION NO.

The following dump truck will be traded in upon purchase: 1988 Chevrolet, 1 ton dump truck, property tag # 16260 The alternative bid of Pacific Freightlines does not meet specifications and is /I)~ J Page 2, Item I/) Meeting Date 11/1/94 unacceptable. Specifically the alternative bid provides for a manual transmission rather than an automatic transmission. Most of the City's vehicles have multiple drivers, therefore, we specify automatic transmissions whenever possible. This precludes repairs to the manual transmission system. Furthermore, the other bidders submitted products in full compliance with the specifications. If we are willing to accept manual transmission (which staff strongly recommends against) the bidding process should be reopened to allow the other bidders to specify manual transmission. ALTERNATIVE FUEL: Due to its size, weight, and continuous all day operation, this vehicle is not appropriate for consideration of conversion to alternative fuel. FISCAL IMPACT: Sufficient funds are provided in the FY 94-95 equipment replacement budget for purchase of the dump truck. The total amount of the dump truck including the 7% sales tax and the trade- in allowance is $77,829.93 The total amount budgeted for the purchases if $77,870 resulting in a savings of $40.07 The existing dump truck has an annual maintenance of $7,699 and operating cost of $671 We estimate the on going maintenance cost will drop significantly while the operating cost will remain about the same.

Widen Alpine Avenue between Moss and Naples Streets to 52 feet (curb- to-curb) b. Provide an all-way "STOP" at the intersection c. Prohibit access to Alpine Avenue from applicant's property (As shown in Exhibit "E") 3. At a public hearing held October 27, 1993, the Planning Commission found that the proposed vacation would be consistent with the existing General Plan; however, the Planning Commission recommended on a vote of 6-0-0-1 (Commissioner Fuller abstaining due to a conflict of interest) that the issue of the vacation be considered in conjunction with the proposed development of the property and not separate from it. Staff concurs with this requirement. DISCUSSION: Backlrround In 1956, the City approved plans for the adjacent subdivision east of Alpine Avenue, Robinhood No.2, showing the curb and gutter on the east side of Alpine Avenue to be installed as part of a knuckle design, similar to what is now being proposed. However, the improvements were never constructed. Research of our records did not indicate the reason they were not built. In February 1988, the City Council considered a request from the San Diego Country Club for relief from requirements for installation of improvements on Moss Street (see Council Agenda Statement, Exhibit "8"). That requirement was generated by the request for a temporary club house gaining access from Naples Street. It was determined that the improvements along Naples would be constructed at such time as permanent development occurred along the Naples frontage or by an assessment district if the south side of Naples installed street improvements by an assessment district. The improvements along Moss Street were not made a condition at that time and it was intended to impose them at the time that the permanent club house was built on "L" Street. When the building permit for the permanent club house was processed it was determined by staff that a nexus could not be made that the construction of the new club house on "L" Street placed a burden on Moss Street and therefore a condition to build the curb and gutter on Moss Street was not made a condition of the building permit. 11-'- Page 3, Item-1L- Meeting Date 11/1/94 Country Club representatives at that time did verbally agree that they saw a benefit to install curb and gutter along Moss Street and indicated that they would commit to participate in area improvements through Assessment District proceedings if the general area did so. That has not happened, and this proposal will provide an opportunity to get the improvements installed on Moss Street. PrODosal The developer (owner of the triangle parcel, Country Club Villa Estates) has made an offer to the San Diego Country Club that if the City will vacate the portion of Moss Street between Naples Street and Alpine Avenue at no cost and if the S.D. Country Club would grant the northerly half of Moss Street to the developer at no cost, the developer will install curb, gutter and pavement along the north side of Moss Street between Third Avenue and Alpine Avenue. The installation of street improvements on the east side of Alpine Avenue between Moss Street and Naples Street and pavement, curb, gutter and sidewalk on the north side of Naples Street, between Alpine Avenue and the current intersection of Moss Street and Naples Street will be a condition of the vacation or requirement of the development of the triangular parcel. Parcel Information The existing parcel containing 8323 square feet (s.f.) is designated low-medium residential (3-6 dwelling units per acre) on the City's General Plan and is zoned R-l (single family). Upon vacation of Moss Street, another 12,259 s.f. would revert to the Country Club Villa Estates Parcel and 18,544 s.f. to the Country Club. If the Country Club portion were combined with the Country Club Villa Estates portion, the parcel would contain 39,126 s.f. Currently Alpine Avenue has a street right-of-way of 60 feet. In order to meet the General Plan designation, the right-of-way must be 72 feet in width. Consequently, street dedication for Alpine Avenue would be required. That dedication would be approximately 1,000 s.f., leaving a parcel containing approximately 38,000 s.f. (see Exhibit" A"). This could, theoretically, be subdivided into five single family lots if the configuration of the parcel would support it. Alilmment Alternatives The alignment recommended by staff is shown on Exhibit "C" indicating that Moss Street be curved southerly at its intersection with the present alignment of Alpine Avenue. This option was recommended by the Safety Commission and supported by the Planning Commission with the conditions stated herein. This option will allow the use of the existing street improvements on Alpine Avenue lowering the cost to install the public improvements necessary to provide a full street. It also provides the developer with the best configuration for developing the property in a logical manner. Another option studied was to relocate the northerly portion of Alpine Avenue to meet the existing portion of Alpine Avenue on the south side (Exhibit "0"). This would necessitate obtaining an easement from the applicant which would bisect the existing parcel. As was indicated at the Safety Commission and Planning Commission hearings, the public has apparently l1-~ Page 4, Item I I Meeting Date 11/1/94 been using that alignment as a shortcut for a number of years. Aerial photos taken since 1960 indicate a tire-worn area created by vehicles crossing from the T -intersection, across the vacant land and meeting Moss Street on its south side. Desiring this realignment, public input has indicated they believed that the City had the right-of- way for that extension by prescriptive rights. A street easement could possibly be obtained through prescriptive rights or condemnation, but both actions would require court action and could be quite costly. The property owner, on the other hand, indicates that although vehicles have been cutting across the property, the area has been blocked at least one day a year since acquiring the land, thus precluding any taking of the easement by prescriptive rights. The owner would object in court if the City attempts to claim prescriptive rights. In addition, should the City condemn property in order to align Alpine Avenue with the portion south of Naples Street, the usability of the remaining portion of the land would result in a parcel that could not be developed to the extent that all the street improvements could be required of the developer. This would require the City to pay for the majority of the improvements as well as remove the existing Alpine Avenue improvements. In addition, the two houses adjacent to Alpine Avenue would have to change their address. Staff believes that lining up the two sections of Alpine Avenue is not critical because of the low traffic volume on the portion of Alpine Avenue south of Naples Street (260 average daily trips) It is also staffs belief that the recommended alignment (Exhibit "C"), doing away with the existing angled intersection is a significant improvement. The existing curb return at the southwest corner of Moss Street and Alpine Avenue has sufficient radius so as not to require reconstruction or additional dedication for the proposed Alpine Avenue alignment adjacent to the existing homes. Accident Record According to accident records from January 1, 1990, through the end of August, 1994, there have been four reported accidents at the intersection of Moss/Naples/First. One of these accidents involved a single vehicle traveling west hitting the chain link fence along the Country Club property line. This accident occurred in 1990. The other three accidents involved eastbound vehicles entering the intersection and failing to yield the right of way to eastbound vehicles (2) and a westbound vehicle on Naples Street. Another reported accident occurred to the east of the intersection in question. It involved an eastbound motorist on Naples Street turning south into the 1100 block of Alpine Avenue and being broad-sided by a motorcyclist attempting to pass the car on the right shoulder. Only one other mishap occurred in the area within the last three years, which involved a single car hitting the same chain link fence just east of the 1000 block of Alpine Avenue. The low number of accidents at the intersection can probably be attributed to the fact that, due to the hazards presented by the acute angle of the intersection, drivers tend to be extremely \\.-~ Page 5, Item II Meeting Date 11/1/94 cautious when making turning movements. None of the accidents mentioned appear to be attributable to the existing geometrics. As indicated, the majority of the accidents are a result of drivers failing to yield the right-of-way. Comnensation for Vacated Area Council has, in the past, required payment for streets which have been vacated although there is no official Council Policy relative to payment for vacated right-of-way. Each circumstance has been considered on its own merit. In some instances payment has been for the whole area vacated, in other cases, payment has been for the difference between the area vacated and the area dedicated. Some streets have been vacated at no cost (Power Center in Rancho Del Rey Business Center) because that issue was addressed in the Disposition and Development Agreement (DDA). The County assessor's office has verbally indicated that the vacated right- of-way parcel would be appraised at $50,000. Staff has obtained sales comparisons for other raw land in the area for the past three years. The price per square foot of unencumbered area has ranged from $4.00 to $9.00 per square foot. In this case, staff has used a lower price of $5.00 for estimating the value of the vacated area. This is based on telephone input from the assessor, the recent drop in raw land values, and difficult configuration of the parcel. There is a water line in the existing Moss Street which the Sweetwater Authority has requested a 20 foot easement be retained. Since the easement will prohibit the construction of any structure within it, staff estimates that the value of the easement area to be 50 % of full value or $2.50 per square foot. The water easement will contain approximately 11,500 square feet (s.f.). Therefore, staff estimates that the value of the vacated land to be 11,500 s.f. multiplied by $2.50 plus 18,300 s.f. multiplied by $5.00 or $120,250. The applicant has proposed to install off-site missing street lights, curb and gutter along the north side of Moss Street between Alpine Avenue and Third Avenue in return for the vacated right-of-way. The improvements are estimated by staff to cost $130,000.00. They do not propose to install sidewalk along this frontage because they feel that it might be hazardous to pedestrians due to errant golf balls landing in the area. Because there are no homes fronting on that side, staff believes that use of such a walk would be extremely low and does not believe it is needed. The estimated additional cost to install sidewalk is $60,000. The improvements to be installed are in lieu of paying the City or the Country Club for the vacated right of way. The developer is willing to do either of the following: 1) pay the City $100,000 for the vacated portion of right-of-way, or; 2) install curb and gutter along the north side of Moss Street from Alpine Avenue west to Third Avenue. The developer is only willing to give the City $100,000 because he believes that through his contracting abilities, he could build the improvements for less than $100,000. If the City accepts the $100,000 payment, then the Country Club would not be responsible to install the curb and gutter on Moss Street between Alpine Avenue and Third Avenue in the future unless they redevelop their golf course into a use that requires frontage improvements and access onto Moss Street. If the City later wishes to have improvements on the north side of Moss Street, it would be our responsibility to fund them. \\- S Page 6, Item , \ Meeting Date 11/1/94 Future DeveloDment Any future development of the parcel would require additional action by the City by holding public hearings and receiving input from residents. All actions would be subject to further City processing as follows: 1. Should the vacation be approved and the applicant wish to develop the property as now zoned, they would be required to fIle an initial study and a subdivision map (for five or more parcels) on the property showing the proposed parcels. Processing would be subject to a public hearing before the City Planning Commission and the City Council. 2. Should the applicant propose an increase in density for the property but still within the General Plan range of 3-6 dwelling units per acre, it would be necessary to file a rezoning request in addition to the environmental analysis and the subdivision map process and the zone change would require a public hearing before the Planning Commission and the City Council with notification to residents. 3. Should the applicant seek a density increase above the low-medium density range of the General Plan (3-6 dwelling units per acre), the next highest category (medium density) is 6-11 dwelling units per acre which would require an amendment to the General Plan as well as the rezoning application, initial study and subdivision processing necessitating public hearings before the Planning Commission and City Council. It should be noted that any zone change consideration for property from an R-l category to an R-3 category requires a unanimous vote of the City Council, per the Cummings initiative that was passed several years ago. This was the initiative that was passed several years ago that required us to set up a growth control process, and made it harder to upgrade zoning. 4. Should the applicant desire to develop the property into four parcels or less under the present zoning category, the applicant would file an initial study as well as a parcel map which is processed at staff level, therefore, the staff approval is final unless appeals are filed setting a public hearing before the Planning Commission. Any development of the parcel map process again requires environmental review as well. Safety Commission's Recommendation of limiting Access to AIDine Avenue The Safety Commission recommended that, if the vacation is approved, access to Alpine Avenue be prohibited from the applicants property upon development. Upon review of this condition by the Planning and Public Works Departments, it is requested that the requirement for access to Alpine Avenue be subject to the approval of the City Engineer rather than a specific prohibition. The primary reason being that a complete prohibition of access on to Alpine Avenue may not be prudent based upon the potential for two lots being created towards the west end of the project, thus requiring a flag lot design to provide access only to Naples Street. Staff would prefer to hold this option open until a development plan is put forth for complete evaluation. l \-'- Page 7, Item " Meeting Date 11/1/94 Noise Imnacts A noise analysis was performed based upon the impacts of the project with the following conclusions: 1. "Baseline levels are sufficiently low on Alpine to accommodate an additional estimated 3,000 vehicles and still meet the 65 Db CNEL standard." 2. "Speed reduction will allow the diverted Moss Street traffic to be placed on a portion of Naples with no significant change in the acoustic environment. " 3. "There are no significant noise impacts associated with the project implementation (the street vacation) that require any mitigation. " 4. "Depending upon site layout, the new residences on the triangle parcel may require a noise wall if side yard or rear yard space abuts on the Naples Street right-of-way. Noise exposure will need to be evaluated during environmental clearance for the residential project. " Onnosition to Vacation At both the Safety and Planning Commission meetings, a number of residents registered their complaints relative to this proposed vacation and realignment. A number of letters of opposition have been received as well as a petition against the vacation containing 67 signatures. The main concerns were: 1. Increased traffic on Naples Street and Alpine Avenue Answer: Staff agrees that the proposed closing of Moss Street will divert traffic to the intersection of Alpine Avenue and Naples Street. An increase in stacking is unavoidable at the intersection during peak hours due to the realignment. The applicant will be required to widen Alpine Avenue and provide a right and left turn lane at that intersection. Staff believes that with the installation of the street improvements and an all way stop, the traffic would flow satisfactorily (see Exhibit "E"). Staff feels that the traffic flow on Moss and Naples Streets will remain essentially the same as they currently exists. Staff anticipates that there will be a minor increase on Naples Street of 5 percent or less. Staff believes that the westbound motorists intending to go to Moss Street west of Third Avenue or to the portion of Moss Street east of Third Avenue will still turn on Alpine Avenue rather than go the 1/4 mile out of the way through at least one more traffic signal to stay on Naples Street. 2. The request for a waiver of sidewalk along the north side of Moss Street between Alpine Avenue and Third Avenue which could, according to the individuals testifying, encourage schoolchildren to use Naples Street with its lack of sidewalk. 1\ -1 Page 8, Item~ Meeting Date 11/1/94 Answer: Staff believes that the lack of sidewalk on the north side of Moss Street has little bearing on the amount on foot traffic on Naples Street. Moss Street has sidewalk on the south side, and there is no reason for schoolchildren to walk on the north side. 3. Increased noise and air pollution Answer: As a result of the realignment closure of the Moss Streett Naples intersection and the increased in traffic trips to the widened portion of Alpine Avenue there would be an increase in noise at that location. With the increase in the number of vehicles at the Alpine Avenue segment their will be an unavoidably increase air pollution at that location. The air pollution for the overall area should not be affected. 4. Speed of traffic on Moss and Naples Streets Answer: Installation of the all-way stop should help to slow the traffic on Naples and Moss Streets in the vicinity of Alpine Avenue. 5. Concerns relating to left turns from both sides of Alpine Avenue onto Naples Street. Answer: Although the distance on Naples Street between the two legs of Alpine Avenue is relatively short, staff feels that motorists at the stop sign will have adequate time to judge whether the turn is safe. This combined with the very low traffic volume on the south leg of Alpine Avenue (260 ADT) and the offset of the intersections in the direction favorable to the flow of traffic, should prevent conflicting movements. 6. Residents were concerned that the parcel would be developed with higher density than they feel should be allowed. Answer: The vacation will not be effective until the applicant receives approval by the City of the proposed development of the property. Residents would be notified of the proposed development or any other changes which might be proposed. Any change in zoning to increase density would require hearings before the Planning Commission and City Council as previously discussed. Public Notice Due to the amount of opposition which has been generated against this project, staff has exceeded the public hearing notification area to include property owners within a radius of 1,000 feet (instead of the required 300 feet) around the affected portion of Moss Street, plus all signers of the above-mentioned petition, plus owners of properties on Second Avenue between Moss and Naples Streets, Karen Way (the cui de sac north of Naples Street), along Moss Street and Naples Street between Alpine Avenue and Third Avenue, with the exception of the condominium owners at the west end of Moss Street near Third Avenue. \\-.g Page 9, Item---11- Meeting Date 11/1/94 Conclusion This is an opportunity for the City to clean up an area that may otherwise remain "under improved". For example: 1. No curb and gutter along Moss Street between Third Avenue and Naples Street 2. No curb, gutter and sidewalk along Naples between Alpine Avenue (north side) and Moss Street 3. Less than desirable intersection angle for Naples Street and Moss Street. This area adjacent to the Country Club between Third Avenue and Naples Street could be improved at no cost to the City or the Country Club. Staff believes that most of the concerns of the Citizens could be mitigated by a stop sign at Naples Street and Alpine Avenue (northerly extension) and by having Council approval of development plans for the triangular parcel prior to recording the resolution of vacation. Recommendation After reviewing past studies and their recommendations regarding the vacation and realignment, staff maintains the position that the most practical means to realign the intersection is to vacate the portion of Moss Street similar to that proposed by the applicant. Following the direction of the Safety and Planning Commissions, staff recommends that Council adopt a resolution ordering the vacation of Moss Street as proposed by the applicant with the following conditions: 1. Owner/developer shall pay the City $100,000 or, at the Council's option, install missing street improvements along the north side of Moss Street (from Alpine Avenue to Third Avenue) to City standards, except that no sidewalk will be required. 2. An all-way stop will be established at the intersection of Naples Street and the portion of Alpine Avenue north of Naples Street. 3. The owner/developer shall dedicate sufficient street right-of-way to widen Alpine Avenue north of Naples to 52 feet curb-to-curb in order to facilitate traffic flow at the intersection. 4. The developer/owner will install all needed street improvements along the parcel's Alpine Avenue and Naples Street frontages when the physical closing of Moss Street takes place. 5. Retain an easement 20 feet wide for Sweetwater Authority along the northerly side of Moss Street. \ \-~ Page 10, Item----LL- Meeting Date 11/1/94 6. Restrict access to Alpine Avenue to those locations approved by the City Engineer and Director of Planning. 7. Require all discretionary approvals by the City to be approved prior to completion and recordation of the street vacation. FISCAL IMPACT: All costs to process the vacation are paid by the applicant. Income from compensation of $100,000 for the right-of-way if the cash offer is accepted by Council, none if the improvements are not considered as compensation.

"~ ADDENDUM TO IS-94-01 VACATION OF A PORTION OF MOSS STREET PROJECT NAME: Vacation of a portion of Moss Street PROJECT LOCATION: Moss Street between Naples Street and Alpine Avenue PROJECT APPLICANT: San Diego Country Club and Country Club Villa Estates PROJECT AGENT: Greg Cox of Cox and Associates CASE NO.: IS-94-0l I. INTRODUCTION The environmental review procedures of the City of Chula Vista allow the Environmental Review Coordinator (ERC) to prepare an addendum to a Negative Declaration or Environmental Impact Report, if one of the following conditions is present: 1 The minor changes in the project design which have occurred since completion of the Final EIR or Negative Declaration have not created any new significant environmental impacts not previously addressed in the Final EIR or Negative Declaration; 2. Additional or refined information available since completion of the Final ErR or Negative Declaration regarding the potential environmental impact of the project, or regarding the measures or alternatives available to mitigate potential environmental effects of the project, does not show that the project will have one or more significant impacts which were not previously addressed in the Final ErR or Negative Declaration. This addendum has been prepared in order to amend the project description to include additional requirements that will improve traffic circulation These minor changes are improvements to the project and will further reduce the potential of any significant environmental impacts. As a result of this analysis, the basic conclusions within the negative declaration have not changed. All impacts are found to be less than significant. Therefore, in accordance with Section 15164 of the CEQA Guidelines, the City has prepared the following addendum to the negative declaration for the vacation of a portion of Moss Street. II. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The proposed project originally consisted of the vacation or closing of a 30,800 sq. ft. section of Moss Street east of Alpine Avenue and west of First Avenue. The northern portion of Moss Street will become part of the holdings of the San Diego Country Club and the southern half would be added to the triangularly shaped parcel to the south. Discretionary actions that are required for this include the //,1:2) finding of General Plan Consistency and the action for approval of the closing of Moss Street. The applicant's eventual plan is that the San Diego Country Club will quit-claim or transfer title of their portion of Moss Street to the County Club Villa Estate's partnership in consideration of the Country Club Villa Estate's partnership installing the missing curbs and gutters on the San Diego Country Club side of the Street. Access to the property will be allowed along Naples; however, access on Moss Street will be limited to one driveway at a location determined to provide safe ingress and egress by the City Traffic Engineer. The applicant eventually plans to apply for a tentative parcel map for 4 units or subdivide the property into 5 units. Under the original project description, the applicant was required to widen Alpine A venue from the current 20 feet to 52 feet. The developer will install curb and gutter, and pavement along the north side of Moss Street between Third Avenue and Alpine A venue. The installation of street improvements on the east side of Alpine Avenue between Moss Street and Naples Street and pavement, curb, and gutter on the north side of Naples Street, between Alpine Avenue and the current intersection of Moss Street and Naples Street will be a requirement of the development of the triangular parcel. The amended project description includes a stop sign installed on Naples at Moss Street, to create a three-way stop controlled intersection and attendant warning devices as deemed necessary by the City Traffic Engineer. These traffic measures enhance traffic safety and provide more efficient flow of traffic within this area adjacent to the project. These street improvements were included to address the traffic concerns of residents. III. PROJECT SETTING The project setting consists of a 30,800 square foot section of Moss Street immediately east of the westerly stub street of Alpine Avenue and immediately north of the intersection of First Avenue and Naples Street. Immediately south of the above described section of Moss Street is a vacant 8,322.98 square foot triangular piece of vacant land. Single family homes are located to the west across Alpine Avenue and to the south across Naples Street. The San Diego Country Club, a golf course with club house facilities, is located to the immediate north of Moss Street. To the east of the proposed project is neighborhood shopping. III. IDENTIFICATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS Traffic The negative declaration analyzed potential environmental effects of the project and found that all impacts could be mitigated to a level below significance. Some of the concerns raised by residents subsequent to the negative declaration being posted with the County of San Diego on September 27, 1993, included concerns of: (1) Increased traffic and high speed, (2) Stacking of traffic on Alpine going onto Naples, (3) Air Quality, (4) Safety of children going to school and (5) that the closing of Moss Street at Alpine would create a knuckle of 90 degrees which would be dangerous. Engineering staff responded as follows: (1) Increased traffic and high saeed - The proposed project intersection is currently at Level of Service (LOS) "A" and will remain at "A" after the project is completed. Traffic flow will improve in the area. Conflicts with other vehicles will be reduced from the widening, which will allow separate turning lanes. Traffic will also slow down with the installation of a stop sign on Naples at Moss Street, creating an all-way stop. J/-~Y (2) Stacking of traffic on Aloine going on to Naoles - The requirement that the applicant install an all-way stop at the North end of Alpine will reduce the queuing effect caused by motorists waiting for an adequate gap in traffic. The street section of Naples that the applicant will be required to construct would adequately handle the expected traffic in the area. (3) Air Oualitv - Concern was raised about the air quality at Moss where it intersects with Naples as a result of traffic that is sometimes backed up, going east six to eight cars deep. Staff consulted with an Air Quality expert who stated that the project is in conformance with the existing Air Basin Plan. (4) Safety of Children - Residents stated that it would be dangerous for elementary school children to walk to school along Naples without a sidewalk. The addition of a stop sign installed on Naples at Moss to create a three-way stop controlled intersection and attendent warning devices will improve the safety of the area. If the applicant does proceed at a later date with plans for a subdivison, then the applicant would be required to fund the construction of sidewalks within the subdivision and may be required to fund some of the offsite infrasture as well. (5) Closing of Moss Street creating a "Dogleg" - Concerns were raised that the closing off of Moss Street at Alpine would create a "dogleg" of 90 degrees which would be quite dangerous with the rate of speed the cars traveling on Moss Street. The traffic engineering staff will review the proposed plans when submitted and will apply applicable City and State roadway standards. V. CONCLUSION Traffic impacts are found to be less than significant and within the acceptable range of LOS C or better in accordance with the City of Chula Vista's General Plan. Pursuant to Section 15164 of the State CEQA Guidelines and based upon the above discussion, I hereby find that the project revisions to the proposed project will result in only minor technical changes or additions which are necessary to make the Negative Declaration adequate under CEQA.

Identification of Environmental Effects An initial study conducted by the City of Chula Vista determined that the proposed project will not have a significant environmental effect, and the preparation of an Environmental Impact Report will not be required. A Negative Declaration has been prepared in accordance with Section 15070 of the State CEQA Guidelines. Traffic Traffic Engineering has determined several traffic measures should be implemented relating to the proposed vacation of Moss Street. The applicant must allow for an increase of right-of-way on Naples and Alpine Street adjacent to the southern parcel on Moss Street in accordance with the City of Chula Vista roadway design standards. The applicant is proposing to install curb and gutters within a 3 year period from the transfer of property subsequent to the approval of the street vacation. The project will include stop sign controls at Moss Street and Naples Street and attendant warning devices as deemed necessary by the City Traffic Engineer. A stop sign will be installed on Naples at Moss Street to create a three-way stop controlled intersection. The applicant must provide a 52' roadway which will be an expansion from the existing 20' roadway. These traffic measures enhance traffic safety and provide more efficient flow of traffic within this area adjacent to the project. E. Water Due to recent drought conditions, as a condition of project approval, the applicant must agree to no net increase in water consumption or participate in whatever water conservation or fee off-set program the City of Chula Vista has in effect at the time of building permit issuance. F Mitigation necessarv to avoid significant effects As no significant effects are expected mitigation measures are not necessary G. Mandatorv Findings of Significance Based on the following fmdings, 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 a fIsh or wildlife population to drop below self-sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a 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. The proposed project, the vacation of Moss 8.treet does not have the potential to degrade or reduce any existing habitat as the project consists of the closing of a street and has therefore been denuded of any habitat long ago. -2- ) /-;2~ I /J Ii ! . 2. The project has the potential to achieve short-tenn environmental goals to the disadvantage of long-tenn environmental goals. This project is consistent with the general plan and does not have the potential to achieve short term environmental goals to the disadvantage of long term environmental goals with guidelines. 3. The project has possible effects which 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 effects of other current projects, and the effects of probable future projects. This project does not have the potential to have effects which are individually limited but cumulatively considerable. The main concern raised by residents was in regard to traffic flow The traffic engineers who reviewed the project have determined that the inclusion of: stop signs on Naples at Moss Street to create a three-way stop controlled intersection. and provision of a 52' roadway which will be an expansion from the existing 20'roadway will enhance traffic safety and provide a more efficient flow of traffic within this area. Staff are confident that, based on this determination, the project does not have cumulatively considerable impacts. 4. The environmental effects of a project will cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly. The proposed project will not cause a substantial adverse effect on human beings either directly or indirectly as it must meet all Code requirements and requirements of various City departments. H.

Exposure of people to severe noise levels? o o . Comments : It is expected that the traffic that currently travels on Moss Street will begin to use Naples. As a result of this change, the homes on the westerly stub street of Alpine Avenue would experience less traffic and noise. The homes along the south side of Naples may experience additional noise from additional travelers along that route. However, discussion with our acoustician has determined that the additional traffic will not bring the noise to a level of significance. 7. Light and Glare. Will the proposal produce new light or glare? YES MAYBE NO o 0 . Comments: There may be additional light along N aples Avenue as a result of the vacation of Moss Street but is not expected to be above the level of significance. 8. Land Use. Will the proposal result in a substantial alteration of the present or planned land use of an area? YES MAYBE NO o o . Comments: The vacation of Moss Street will improve traffic circulation and the land use will coincide with the surrounding residential land designation in the general plan. 9. Natural Resources. Will the proposal result in: YES MAYBE NO a. Increase in the rate of use of any natural resources? o o . Comments: No natural resources are expected to be impacted. The proposal, therefore, is not expected to increase the rate of the use of natural resources. 10. Risk of Upset. Will the proposal involve: YES MAYBE NO a.

ICHECKLST.MOS //~d-.J3 Page 4 b. Possible interference with an emergency response plan or an emergency evacuation plan? o o . Comments: No hazardous materials or substances will be stored on site. Therefore, there cannot be a risk of an explosion or release of hazardous substances in the event of an accident or upset conditions. Population. Will the proposal alter the location distribution, density, or growth rate of the human population or an area? II. YES MAYBE NO o o . Comments: The proposed project involves the vacation of Moss Street and will not involve the construction of more residential units. The population will not increase. A tentative parcel map or subdivision map for the division of the project site into no more than 5 parcels may be submitted in the future. This future proposal for the use of the site will increase population, but the impact of five families would be below the level of significance. 12. Housing. Will the proposal affect existing housing, or create a demand for additional housing? YES MAYBE NO o o . Comments: The proposed project will not involve the construction of any new housing and will not create a demand for more housing in the project area. A future project may involve the building of a small number of homes but this would not place a significant demand on current services and natural resources in the project area. 13 Transportation/Circulation.

A "large project" under the Congestion Management Program? (An equivalent of 2400 or more average daily vehicle trips or 200 or more peak-hour vehicle trips). o o . Comments: The proposed project will shift traffic from Moss Street to Naples Street. However, impacts to traffic and circulation are not significant. The proposed project street improvements will improve circulation and safety at the intersection of Moss Street and Naples Street. 14 Public Services. Will the proposal have an effect upon or result in a need for new or altered governmental services in any of the following areas: YES MAYBE NO a. Fire protection? 0 0 . b. Police protection? 0 0 . c. Schools? 0 0 . d. Parks or other recreational facilities? 0 0 . e. Libraries? 0 0 . f. Maintenance of public facilities, including roads? 0 0 . g. Other governmental services? 0 0 . Comments: Traffic Engineering staff recommends that the roadway be expanded to 52 feet, that access to the property be allowed along Naples but limited on Moss Street to one driveway at a location determined to provide safe ingress and egress as determined by the City Traffic Engineer. The project will include stop sign controls at Moss and Naples and attendant warning devices as deemed necessary by the City Traffic Engineer. A stop sign will be installed on Naples at Moss Street, to create a three-way stop controlled intersection. These traffic measures enhance traffic safety and provide more efficient flow of traffic within this area adjacent to the project. The street improvements would require an increase in City right-of-way in accordance with City of Chula Vista street design standards, by the property owner of the proposed project. These street improvements will address the traffic concerns of residents and improve traffic circulation in the project area. The proposed project is a street vacation and will not create any impact on public services. The Fire Department and Police Department have not noted any Fire or Police protection in relation to this project. The project site may be developed in the future as single-family housing. This possible development will be no more than 5 parcels and the population increase will not place a significant impact on public services in the project area. ICHECKLST.MOS Ij,;2J5 Page 6 15. Energy. Will the proposal result in: YES MAYBE NO a. Use of substantial amount of fuel or energy? D D . b Substantial increase in demand upon existing sources or energy, or require the development of new sources of energy? D D . Comments : The proposed project will not involve any energy use and will not create any energy demands. 16. Thresholds. Will the proposal adversely impact the City's Threshold Standards? YES MAYBE NO D D . Comments: As described below, the proposed project does not adversely impact any of the seven Threshold Standards. A. Fire/EMS The Threshold Standards requires that fire and medical units must be able to respond to calls within 7 minutes or less in 85 % of the cases and within 5 minutes or less in 75% of the cases. The City of Chula Vista has indicated that this threshold standard will be met, since the nearest fire station is 1-1/4 miles away and would be associated with a 3 minute response time.

Will the proposal result in the alteration of or the destruction of paleontological resources? YES MAYBE NO D D . Comments: The proposed project site is in an urbanized area and will not result in the determination of paleontological resources. 22. Mandatory Findings of Significance. YES MAYBE NO a. Does the project have the potential to degrade the quality of the environment, substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population to drop below self sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or animal community, reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant animal or eliminate important examples or the major periods of California history or prehistory? D D . Comments: The proposed project, the vacation of Moss Street does not have the potential to degrade or reduce any existing habitat as the project consists of the closing of a street and has, therefore, been denuded of any habitat long ago. Comments: b Does the project have the potential to achieve short-term goals to the disadvantage of long- term, environmental goals? (A short-term impact on the environment is one which occurs in a relatively brief, definitive period of time, while long-term impacts will endure well into the future.) D . D The City Traffic Engineer has found that the requested vacation, along with the recommended conditions of approval, would meet the General Plan Circulation Element street standards, and would enhance traffic safety by eliminating the acute angle at which Moss Street now intersects with Naples Street. The Circulation Element diagram shows Moss Street intersecting with Naples Street near First Avenue and/or Alpine Avenue and thus the proposed configuration would be consistent with the General Plan. The project complies with long-term environmental and land use goals of the City. c. Does the project have impacts which are individually limited, but cumulatively considerable? (A project may impact two or ICHECKLST .MOS Page 10 /I-J-Ji more separate resources where the impact on each resource is relatively small, but where the effect of the total of those impacts on the environment is significant.) D D . Comments: This project does not have the potential to be individually limited but cumulatively considerable. The main concern raised by residents was in regard to traffic flow. The traffic engineers who reviewed the project have determined that the inclusion of: stop signs on Naples at Moss Street to create a three-way stop controlled intersection and provision of a 52' roadway which will be an expansion from the existing 20' roadway will enhance traffic safety and provide a more efficient flow of traffic within this area. The street improvements will improve circulation and safety at the intersection of Moss Street and Naples Street and will address the traffic concerns of residents. Staff are confident that based on this determination, the project does not have cumulatively considerable impacts. d. Does the project have environmental effects which will cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly? D D . Comments: The proposed project will not cause a substantial adverse effect on human beings either directly or indirectly as it must meet all Code requirements and requirements of various City departments. ))'eJ'it?

These improvements will be installed within three years of the date of transfer of the property from SDCC to County Club Villa Estates. A Request for Waiver has been submitted simultaneously with the Request for Right of Way Vacation to relieve the SDCC from any future requirement to install sidewalks on the above referenced portion of Moss Street, as long as the SDCC continues to operate as a golf course. The Request for Waiver is an integral part of the Request for Right of Way Vacation. When plans are submitted for future development of the enlarged parcel which would be created by the approval of the requested vacation, it is anticipated that full street improvements would be required as a condition of approval. 11-.J/0/--t5d- " i '1' nm c. .I OF CHULA VISTA DISa..DSURE 5'", .'E.MENr You are required to file a Statement of Disclosure of certain ownership or financial interests, payments, or campaign contributions, on all mailers which will require discretionary action on the part of the City Council, Planning Commission, and all other official bodies.

File: Vacations (Street, Alley, Right-of-way) Dear Mr. Hardesty: This letter is in response to your notice of a proposed vacation of a portion of Moss Street at Naples Street. Sweetwater Authority presently has a 30-inch steel water main located on the north side of Moss Street in this area. This is a major transmission facility for conveying water in the City of Chula Vista. The Authority requests that the above-described water facilities be exempted from this vacation. We request that a 20-foot wide permanent easement centered on the main be granted to us for the purpose of installing, operating, maintaining, replacing and repairing said facilities and service pipes and the right of ingress and egress for such purposes. Also, no buildings and/or stru'ctures will be" .erected, walls constructed, fences built, changes of grade, nor trees planted upon the area of the easement. Enclosed is a copy of 1/4 SEC. 120 map which show these facilities. If you have any questions, please contact Mr. Russell Collins at 420-1413, ext. 239.

MEMO F~i'l\;l\' \-'-- TO: Barbara Reid, City of Chula vista FROM: Hans Giroux; Giroux & Associates RE: Naples/Alpine Noise Monitoring October 22, 1993 DATE: In anticipation of possible changing traffic volumes at the Naples/ Alpine intersection in conjunction with proposed intersection realignment, a baseline noise survey of existing conditions was conducted on October 19-21, 1993. Measurements were made at 129 Naples at a location under the picture window facing Naples. Along Alpine, noise was measured at a landscaping bush in front of 1094 Alpine near the lot line with 1098 Alpine. Larson-Davis Model 700 integrating sound level meters were used for these measurements with the meters calibrated before and after the monitoring. The meter records the sound level eight times per second, converts the readings to an energy equivalent level (Leq), and stores the data in an internal memory at preselected intervals. Hourly data were used in this study. Attachment A summarizes the results of around fifty hours of measurements. Data from different days was almost identical. Afternoon rush hour noise levels on three days were almost identical at each location (within 1 dB at Naples and 1.5 dB at Alpine). Throughout the day, from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m., the noise level was never lower than 64.0 dB or higher than 66.5 dB along Naples on each day of measurements. As a rule of thumb, people do not perceive a noticeable difference in noise exposure when levels differ by less than 3 dB. There is therefore no noticeable difference in traffic noise along Naples for around 13 hours of the day. A noise level of 65 dB is generally the threshold level where speech interference becomes noticeable in that one has to raise one's voice to overcome the traffic noise. Noise levels along Naples at the closest point of residential occupancy are therefore right at this threshold for most of the day. /J~2?r( /7744 Sky I'tIrk amk, Sui~ 2/0, JrviDe, QJjf~ 927/4 - PboDe (7/4) 8S/-8tf09 - FlU (7/4) 8S/-86/2 r l -2- In order to account for changing noise sensitivity throughout the day, noise/land use compatibility criteria use a descriptor called the Community Noise Equivalent Level (CNEL). CNEL takes the hourly noise levels, adds a 5 dB penalty for noise from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m., and a 10 dB penalty from 10 p.m. to 7 a.m., and then averages the 24 hour period. CNELs were calculated for each of the days and each of the sites monitored with the following result: Date 129 NaDles 1094 Al Dine 10/19-20/93 10/20-21/93 65.9 dB(A) 66.4 dB(A) 57.8 dB(A) 57.8 dB(A) The City standard at any exterior recreational use (patio, pool, etc.) is 65 dB CNEL. Along Alpine, the standard is met with a wide marqin of safety. Project-related changes in traffic volumes will not cause the city standard to be exceeded. At the homes nearest to the Naples/Alpine intersection, side yards or parts of the backyard of several homes closest to the intersection are near the standard. Because project implementation may incrementally increase existing levels already at the recommended maximum, noise protection for the yards of the homes nearest the intersection should be considered. A 6-foot, side yard block wall would insure that the project does not reduce the ability to comfortably use exterior space at these homes. Exterior noise increases may also impede the maintenance of an acceptable interior level (normally 45 dB CNEL). structural attenuation with closed windows is around 25 dB such that exterior levels would need to exceed 70 dB CNEL before meeting interior standards becomes impossible. As long as the closest homes have the option to close their windowS to shut out street noise, meeting the interior standard is not a problem. An ability to close windows requires supplemental ventilation. We did not evaluate floor plans and ventilation systems to determine whether any structural modifications are necessary to insure that interior levels are within the standard. In summary, our findings were as follows: 1. Noise levels along Naples at the nearest point of residential exterior use are at the city's standard. /1' 2t 7 -3- 2. Any incremental increase due to the project can be offset by a side yard wall at homes closest to the intersection. 3. Noise levels along Alpine are sufficiently low as to not be impacted by project-related changes in traffic volumes. 4. Adequacy of interior noise protection should be evaluated.

We understand that the site in question may be used for future development of a few new home sites. We are delighted to learn about this drastic improvement to the unsightly lot in our neighborhood which becomes a dumping site at times for unwanted household items. Most of all, this plan will eliminate the dangerous intersection that causes a lot of traffic accidents on a monthly basis. This intersection is going to cost someone their life in the near future if something is not done about it. (If it hasn't already) We urge you to support this plan in behalf of the entire neighborhood that uses this intersection on a daily basis. Thank you for your understanding and time in regards to this matter.

The traffic on Moss Street has increased 100% in the last six years that we have lived here, due to the fact iihat Naples is now a thnl street to Medical Drive. Many people use Naples Street instead of Telegraph Canyon and L Street. Our small street of Alpine Ave in the 1000 block cannot handle all the traffic from Moss Street. It is too narrow to start with and many people do cross the empty lott instead of using the street. On a Friday afternoon there are as many as eight cars at the stop sign on Moss Street and First Ave. at one time and many do use Alpine to get to Naples, which also has very heavy traffic at all times. Since Chula Vista has grown so much in the last few years so has the traffic. Sincerely, _ (j /-tur ~ -6 a.t<.("t(~ &~a~ Albert C. Cabella & Corinne A.

Pi t.-' - , ....,..,t"., , If\H\'...;: We wish to comment on the initial study of the request for vacation of a 30,000 sq. ft. portion of Moss St between Alpine and First Ave. It just don't make sense to divert traffic to Alpine which would affect First ~ve., a residentual neighborhood to accommodate a Country Club. Our street is narrow with no sidewalks and since Naples St. was opened up going East, we have been experiencing much heavier traffic with speeding vehicles especially pick-ups. What will happen to the trees along north side of Moss? We have lived in our horee on First Avenue for thirty-nine years and have seen many changes and noticed that the former owner of the property mentioned above had tried to use or sell that land and was turned down by the City. Then we heard the City of Chula Vista had purchased the parcel and again a friend told us a former Mayor was part owner now. Should we think this is political? Thank you, Aaron E. Cook Margaret E. Cook 1160 First Ave. Chula Vista, Ca. 91911 P.S.

J. ~ ''-',.... ~ '. Re: Case # PCM-94-09/IS-94-01 Vacation of a 30,000 sq. foot portion of Moss St. between Alpine and Fest Aves. To Whom It May Concern: As residents at 1094 Alpine Avenue, in the area of the proposed vacation of Moss Street, we hereby file the following protests, with you, against this vacation: 1. Traffic on Moss and Naples from Broadway to Hilltop Drive, and beyond, is quite heavy. Most of the time cars come through these sections at high rates of speed. With the closing of Moss Street there will be that much more traffic on Naples Street. To say nothing of the increased traffic in front of our residence. 2. Traffic at Moss where it intersects Naples is sometimes backed up, going East, six to eight cars deep. Traffic will be backed up trying to get onto Naples from Alpine many cars deep if this proposed vacation is passed. The air quality caused by this back up will be very extensive. 3. Alpine Avenue where all this traffic would have to divert is only 20 feet wide at the present time' At the Safety Commission Meeting it was conceded that this street will be widened to accommodate the foreseen traffic. 4. Closing off Moss Street at Alpine would create a "dogleg" of 90. which will be quite dangerous wi't:h the rate of speed the cars traveling Moss Street are doing at present. 5. The corner of Moss Street where it intersects Naples is not a dangerous corner (no accidents are attributed to this corner), as shown at the Safety Commission hearing. This is the reason given by the San Diego Country and Country Club Estates as the reason for vacation. The danger will come when this vacation occurs on Moss Street and traffic is diverted to Alpine Avenue. ///;2'76 The Safety Commission agreed that there would be a three way stop erected at this intersection. The traffic on Naples is so heavy that cars, even now, have problems moving onto Naples from either the 1000 block or the 1100 block of Alpine. If this vacation occurs the traffic on Naples could be doubled and the traffic coming off of the 1100 block of Alpine Avenue will have the stop heading North, turning onto Naples - then going West they will have to stop once again, within 90 feet' THIS is a dangerous situation to say nothing of the almost impossibility of moving into the West bound traffic of Naples. 6. Speaking of dangerous - what about the dangerous condition of elementary school children walking to school along Naples Street on non-existant sidewalks with 12,000 cars, trucks, buses, and ambulances a day speeding past, if this vacation passes' They walk along there now with 6,000 cars, trucks, buses, and ambulances (which is dangerous enough). 7. We recommend that a very THOROUGH study of the traffic pattern in this area be made and also the cost to the city of widening Alpine and installing the necessary stop signs (it should be a stop light) at Alpine and Naples before any approval is give to the closing of Moss Street between Alpine and First Avenue. A recent automobile count was conducted at the 1100 block of Alpine. This count wasn't started until AFTER the morning rush hour traffic had finished. How does this give an accurate count? Please - have someone (a person or persons) come out to this area and observe, for a few peak hours, to see the traffic pattern as it REALLY is, at it's BEST! 8. Furthermore, as citizens, we are concerned with the "waiver" which has been requested by the San Diego Country Club and the Country Club Villa Estates that the curbing and sidewalks along Moss Street from Third Avenue not be installed because of hazards from the Golf Course. If a study were made it would show that the "hazards" (golf balls) rarely fall along the fence - they usually land in the street, in the lawns, in the empty lot, or on the cars on the South side of Moss Street. I can show you a recent broken window in my house caused by an errant golf ball' 9. As taxpayers we wonder what compensation the San Diego Country Club and the Country Club Villa Estates plans to pay for this 30,000 square foot piece of prime real estate (overlooking a country club)? At today's prices this should be a nice "chunk of change" to add to the City's coffers. 10. The Safety Commission Meeting of September 9, 1993 J/~;2 77 regarding this vacation of Moss Street was a joke. The Commission did not listen to any of the many residents who came to the meeting and voiced their concerns - There was no discussion. They had already made up their minds. There were a couple people on the Commission (Mr. Pitts and Ms. Braden) who seemed to listen to our speeches and tried to get a dialog going but Mr. Thomas, who was the Chair (and who seemed very bored with the whole thing), was too busy having an aside discussion with Mr. Padilla to pay any attention. He called for a vote of the Commission without the least discussion of any of our concerns. Is this the way our city of Chula Vista runs all of it's hearings? Thank you for this opportunity to voice OUR protests. Does it REALLY do any good? Sincerely, Mr9rcf~e Nflf/- 1Y?(~~ -Ml:. D. P.

Box 1087 Chula Vista, California 91912 RE: Vacation of a 30,000 sq. ft. portion of Moss St. between Alpine and First Avenues. Dear Sir, Thank you for your "Notice of Initial Study" letter of August 18, 1993. As residents at 1094 Alpine Avenue and having read the complete application for the Initial Study filed in the Planning Department we hereby submit the following comments: 1. Our residece is located on the corner of Moss and Alpine and therefore one of the two most affected households in regards to this proposal of the vacation of the portion of Moss between Alpine and First. 2. Traffic on Moss, all the quite heavy. The portion of Moss Avenu~ is probably the heaviest. section at high rates of speed. way from Broadway to Naples is from Third Avenue to First At times cars come through this 3. Traffic at Moss where it intersects Naples is sometimes backed up, going East, five and six cars deep (usually at rush hour). What will the back up be on Alpine if this section of Mo$S is closed? I hate to think. The fumes from these cars will certainly affect our standard of living on this section of Alpine. 4. Alpine Avenue (in front of our dwellings) where all this traffic would have to divert is only 20 feet wide! This is hardly enough room for one car, let alone cars going in both direction. Many times a car turning into this section of Alpine from Naples would have to wait until the car leaving Alpine left! This portion of Alpine would have to be widened to accommodate the traffic which would be diverted. 5. Closing off Moss Street at Alpine would create a "dogleg" and whatever the Country Club Villa Estates planned to put up at this location would be in dire jeopardy. Perhaps a solution to this would be to deadend Moss at Alpine and close off this section of Alpine? Then we'd have different problems. 6. The corner of Moss Street where it intersects Naples is, //-2// indeed, a dangerous corner. San Diego Country Club would trimmed at this intersection Looking right from this stop the view is quite clear. We are very aware of that. If the continue to keep the high bushes the danger is reduced considerably. sign is a bit "neck stretching" but 7. If Moss Street is closed between Alpine and this intersection the corner of Alpine and Naples WILL BE the MOST dangerous corner in Chula Vista unless the city installed a three way stop sign or light at this intersection. This would make it safe and also make Alpine traffic accessible to Naples. The traffic on Naples is so heavy that cars, even now, have problems moving onto Naples from this section of Alpine. We recommend that a very thorough study of the traffic pattern in this area be made and also the cost to the city. of widening Alpine and installing the necessary stop signs at Alpine and Naples before any approval is give to the closing of Moss Street between Alpine and First Avenue. Thank you for keeping us informed in this matter. Sincerely, J~~~:~: ~~~~ --. Mr. D. P. Coug lan 1094 Alpine Avenue Chula Vista, CA 91911-3301 J) - ,;Ltrt/ . ~ .

"/~ Establishing and Amending Certain Time Limitations in the Southwest Redevelopment Plan SUBMITTED BY: Community Development Director L f. REVIEWED BY: City Manage~ ~ 00 (4/5ths Vote: Yes _ No XI BACKGROUND: The purpose of these or~n;::s is to amend all of the City's Redevelopment Plans to incorporate certain time limits mandated by AB 1290 (and further refined in SB 732) These time limits pertain to the establishment of indebtedness, effectiveness of Redevelopment Plans and repayment of indebtedness. The legislation requires that a Redevelopment Plan which either lacks the required time limits or which contains time limits in excess of the maximums established by AB 1290 must be amended by ordinance before the end of the calendar year to bring the plan into conformity with these requirements. There is nothing in the new regulation restricting the Agency from designating new project areas except that it will be more difficult to qualify new project areas under new blight criteria. RECOMMENDATION: That the Council adopt the first reading of the ordinances amending the Redevelopment Plan to conform to the requirements of AB 1290. BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: The OtayValley Road and Town Centre PACs have been advised of this action. DISCUSSION: In an effort to limit the fiscal impacts of redevelopment upon other taxing jurisdictions, the legislature incorporated certain time limitations pertaining to establishing and repaying debt and the effectiveness of Redevelopment Plans in AB 1290 which was signed into law and became effective on January 1, 1994 These limitations include the following (per Section 33333.6 of the Health and Safety Code) 1. A time limit of 20 years from the adoption of the Redevelopment Plan, or until January 1, 2004, whichever is later, for the establishment of loans, advances, and /1f~1 , " I' Page 2, Item 1'1 Meeting Date 11/01/94 indebtedness. This time limit may be extended by amendment of the Plan after the Agency finds that significant blight remains which cannot be eliminated without additional debt. The amended time limit may not exceed 10 years from the limit established by this situation or the expiration of the Redevelopment Plan, whichever is earlier. 2. The expiration date of every Redevelopment Plan shall not exceed 40 years from the adoption date, or January 1, 2009, whichever is later After the expiration date, the Agency shall have no authority to act pursuant to the plans except to pay previously incurred indebtedness and to enforce existing covenants, contracts, or other obligations. 3. Subject to specific exceptions for pre-existing obligations, a redevelopment agency shall not pay indebtedness or receive property taxes after 10 years from the termination of the effectiveness of the redevelopment plan. Unless redevelopment plans adopted prior to January 1, 1994 contain all of these provisions, the City Council, acting by ordinance, must amend the plans prior to December 31, 1994 Chula Vista has five redevelopment plans, all adopted prior to January 1, 1994. All of the plans will require amendment as further described below: TIME LIMIT TO TIME LIMIT TO TERMINATION OF PROJECT AREA ESTABLISH DEBT REPAY DEBT PLAN EFFECTIVENESS BAYFRONT PLAN July 16, 1999 No Limit Ordinence 1541 Second Reeding pessed end edopted 7116174 Expires in 25 years (19991 Required Amendment Not Appliceble 10 years efter termination Can be extended to 40 years of Redevelopment Plen, through full plan amendment which is July 16, 2009 process to Year 2014 TIME LIMIT TO TIME LIMIT TO TERMINATION OF PROJECT AREA ESTABLISH DEBT REPAY DEBT PLAN EFFECTIVENESS TOWN CENTRE I PLAN July 6, 2001 No Limit Ordinence 1691 Second Reeding pessed end edopted 716176 Expires in 25 years (2001) Required Amendment Not Applicable 10 years after termination Can be extended to 40 years of Redevelopment Plan, through full plan amendment which Is July 6, 2011 nrocess to Year 2016. ,1/- ,,2.

Although the Bayfront and Town Centre I projects have a duration of 25 years and the law allows up to 40 years, the duration cannot be extended by ordinance action. It can be extended through the normal plan amendment process which is contemplated for the BayfrontlTown Centre as part of the Midbayfront Development Project. The duration of projects can be shortened, however, by ordinance action which is proposed for Town Centre II and Otay Valley Road which currently have 45 year durations. These amendments must be approved by the end of the year to be in compliance with the law Since these actions do not constitute a "project" under CEQA, they are categorically exempt from environmental review FISCAL IMPACT: The proposed amendments will impact the Agency's ability to establish and repay additional debt as described below. Time Limit to Establish Debt Time limits for the Bayfront and Town Centre I Project Areas were set by Ordinance 2146 in 1986 as follows: Bayfront, Vear 1999, Town Centre I, Vear 2001. Although the recent changes in the Law will allow these limits to be extended to 2004, this can only be accomplished through the full plan amendment process. Town Centre II (the original project area) will have until 2004. The territory added in 1988, can establish debt until 2008. Otay Valley Road can be extended to 2004, and Southwest to 2010 These limits can be extended by amendment of the Redevelopment Plan if the Agency determines that significant blight cannot be eliminated without additional debt. This finding can be made when the Bayfront Plan is amended. Although additional tax increment bond issues are not anticipated at this time, this limitation would also restrict loans and advances from the City which may be necessary for the Bayfront to offset the current deficit. /II- 'f Page 5, Item /'1 Meeting Date 11/01/94 Time Limit to Reoav Debt Aside from advances and loans from the City to all of the projects, the Bayfront is the only project with outstanding bond indebtedness (tax increment bonds) Without a plan amendment, any newly issued bonds would have to be paid off by 2009. The pending bonds were authorized prior to January 1, 1 994 -- they fall under the exemption provided by Section 33333.6(h) and could be for a longer duration. By amending the plan to extend the duration to 40 years (2014), the payback period will be extended to 2024 Limitina the Duration of Redevelooment Plans to 40 Years Bayfront and Town Centre both have 25 year duration which may be extended to 40 years by amending the Redevelopment Plan through the normal amendment process.

REVIEWED BY: City Manage~ ~~ (4/5ths Vote: Yes_No.1O SANDAG has released for public review two elements of the Regional Growth Management Strategy. the Series 8 Regional Population and Housing Forecast, and the Land Use Distribution Element (Attachments A and B). On August 15, 1994, Mayor Nader requested that the Planning Commission and Resource Conservation Commission review these documents, and provide comments to the City Council. On September 21, the Planning Commission and Resource Conservation Commission held a joint workshop, and heard a presentation from SANDAG staff on these two documents. Subsequently, both commissions have forwarded recommendations to the City Council. RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council direct the City Manager to submit a letter to SANDAG containing the comments contained in the "Analysis" section of this report, along with any other comments that the City Council wishes to forward. (Note: SANDAG staff will be present at the meeting to make a brief presentation and answer questions regarding these reports. ) BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: On September 26, the Resource Conservation Commission voted to endorse the Series 8 Forecast and the Land Use Distribution Element, with additional recommendations regarding school and park facilities (see attached minutes) On October 26, the Planning Commission also voted to endorse the Land Use Distribution Element and the Series 8 Forecast. DISCUSSION: Backl!round The draft Series 8 Forecast distributes expected growth through the year 2005 among the San Diego region's 18 cities and the unincorporated area, based primarily on adopted general plans and community plans. On a regional basis, this reflects an increase from a population of 2,498,016 in 1990 to 3,278,885 in 2005, or a 31 % increase. For the Chula Vista sphere of influence, the projected change is from 148,483 in 1990 to 200,411 in the year 2005, or a 35% increase over the same period. /5'~/ Page 2, Item If Meeting Date 11/1/94 The Land Use Distribution Element addresses the issues of how to effectively manage and plan for population and housing growth. The Element would establish access standards (maximum travel times and distances) as objectives to be pursued in future land use and transportation planning. In addition, the Element proposes specific land use and transportation policies which are intended to help cities and the County meet these access standards. Implementation of these policies would result in development patterns that promote transit ridership, decrease automobile travel, and improve other quality of life measures such as air quality. Analvsis City staff has reviewed these documents, and has the following comments: I) Series 8 Forecast Staff has reviewed the draft forecast in relation to previous development forecasts prepared by the City for the Growth Management Oversight Commission, the Interim SR-125 study, the Otay Ranch project review, and other relevant information. We have concluded that the proposed forecast for the existing City of Chula Vista boundary, as well as the current sphere of influence, is consistent with local forecasts and analysis. However, we are concerned that the forecast figures for the Otay Ranch area (which is shown as part of the "unincorporated area" forecast) are too high, and we are continuing to work with SANDAG and County staff to resolve these concerns. 2) Land Use Distribution Element Staff has also reviewed this document, and fmds that it provides a good framework for future local planning to consider land use and transportation measures that will reduce vehicle miles travelled, mitigate air quality impacts, and reduce land consumption. However, we would like to see the report discuss the possible impacts of higher intensity development on public services (roads, schools, parks, etc.) and the need to ensure that these impacts are mitigated. For example, it may be possible to create incentives for cities which comply with the Land Use Distribution Element, such as giving them priority in regional transportation funding or other financial programs. Such a discussion would address the concerns raised by the Resource Conservation Commission regarding school and park facilities. In addition, staff finds that these reports do not adequately address the issues regarding longer- range forecasting, and the possible results of local jurisdictions deciding not the implement the policies contained in the Land Use Distribution Element. The introduction to the Series 8 Forecast points out that the current general plans of the County and 18 cities cannot accommodate forecasted residential growth through the year 2015. It is further pointed out that implementation of the policies contained in the Land Use Distribution Element would result in /~.2.. , \ !j Page 3, Item if Meeting Date 11/1/94 more compact urban growth, and could allow forecasted growth to be accommodated through 2015. However, if local jurisdictions decide not to implement these policies, and the growth forecasts are accurate, then one or more of the following scenarios (or some combination thereof) may be expected: 1) further urbanization in or near existing "country towns" in the unincorporated area, such as Jamul and Ramona; 2) establishment of "new towns" in outlying areas of the County; 3) continued employment growth without corresponding residential development, which would ultimately result in higher populations per household. Each of these scenarios, as well as others, would have certain environmental and economic consequences which need to be considered when evaluating the merits of adopting the policies contained in the Land Use Distribution Element. However, these issues are not adequately addressed in these reports. FISCAL IMPACT: Ongoing City staff participation in the preparation and review of these reports is supported by the City General Fund. Implementation of the policies contained in the draft Land Use Distribution Element could result in significant additional staff costs, depending on whether it was done in conjunction with regularly scheduled updates of plans, or as a separate planning effort.

Like its predecessors, this Growth Forecast is used by SANDAG, its member agencies, and many other public and private leCtOr eDtities iD plans and IIlUdies that require population, bousiDg and employment data. SANDAG's Regional Growth Forecast is produced iD two phases. 1be fint pbase is the regionwide forecast. It produces population, bousiDg, employment and other powtb-related iDformation for the entire San Diego region. ID September 1993, the Board ret........ the regionwide forecast - termed the Economic Prosperity Forecast - for review and comment and for use iD the second phase of the Growth Forecast. 1be aec:ond pbase .tlnMot..-s the regionwide forecast to jurisdictions, communities and other aqrapbic ueas witbiD tile recion. The regionwide Economic Prosperity Forecast iDcludt-s tile tactics COJIhIi-' iD the Recional Economic Prosperity Strategy designed to help IOlve tile 1qiOD'. most imponant economic problems. It is the fint forecast produced by SANDAG to include IpeCifk: cbanJCS to current policies and trends related to the region's employment powtb. This foroc:ast iDdiClt.... that the region's civilian employment base wiD pow by 359,000 jobs from 1990 to tile year 2015, an iDc:rease or 32 percent. It iDcludes an Idditional 59,000 jobs over an a1terDative rqionwide forecast based primarily on recent trends. 1be region'. population wiD pow by 51 peRlCDt (1.3 111m;"., perIODS) by tile ,ear 2015. Natunl iDc:rease (births miDus delth~) ICCOUnts for 52 perceDt or this powtb wbile tile J'eIII.i......~ is due to people moviD& iDto tile region. The Regional Growth Management Technical C'......mittoe IpCIlt . COIIIidcrable amount of time and effon iD workiDi with staff'duriD& this aec:ond phase, to aJ10cate the regionwide forecast to jurisdictions and other communities witbiD the 1qiOD. This COIIIIIlittee is composed of pt.","", representatives from each member agency. Traditionally, the IOCODd phase of the Regional Jf~? I \.,6 Growth Forea.st was completed by allocating the regionwide forecast based on the land use and growth policies of the region's jurisdictions. For the first time, local jurisdiction plans could not accommodate the regionwide forecast; therefore, the committee looked at alternatives to the existing plans. A "quality of life" land use distribution alternative was formulated which would better manage future growth and thus accommodate the regionwide forecast to the year 2015. Implementation of this alternative would require major changes to the general and community plans and development policies of most cities and the County. These changes were viewed by the representatives of those jurisdictions as being unacceptable at this time from a local policy ItaDdpoint. As a result, staff prepared a Series 8 allocation which reflects the current land use and growth policies of the region's jurisdictions; however, this allocation using current policies does not accommodate the regionwide population and housing forecast beyond the year 2005. -.., The attachment to this report shows the population, housing and employment forecast to the year 2005 for each jurisdiction and sphere of influence. It is the Regional Growth Management Technical Committee's and my RECOMMENDATION that the Board recommend that the cities and the County approve the Series 8 Regional Growth Forecast to the year 2005 for inclusion in the Regional Growth Management Strategy and that this foreast be approved for use in planning and other studies. It is further recommended that -.., the actions contained in the Land Use Distribution Element be used to solve the problems identified by the Series 8 forecast. Di~~sion The Series 8 Regional Growth Forecast is a result of a cooperative effort among the cities and the county. It shows the likely distribution of 3.0 million people and 1.24 million jobs throughout the region in the year 2000 and 3.28 million people and 1.37 million jobs in the year 2005. The forecast for jurisdictions and other communities reflects the current public policies contained in the local agencies' general and community plans. Some of the uses of the Regional Growth Forecast are abown below. . City, county, community. and capital facUities planning . Planning by special purpose agencies and districts and the private sector in the preparation of development plans, business plans. and C\llvironmenta1 impact reports .

In attempting ... 2 /~_? , . . to distribute the growth beyond the year 2005, the legion is confronted with something that has never occurred in the 2G-plus years that SANDAG has been producing growth forecasts: A forecast based on cunently adopted genen} and community plans runs out of land pl,..ftl'lII for uJban residential development. In the year 200S, only 14,000 vacant urban residential acres remain in the region. All of this land and more is DHded to accommodate the region's forecasted growth beyond the year 200S. Attempting to distribute forecastled growth beyond the year 200S would cause unrealistically high levels of development in the outlying areas of the region and would not preserve CI10Ugh vacant urban residential land aeeded for habitat conservation. The issues identified in this report are medium to long term in nature. However, this Series 8 forecast illustrates that implementation of our current geoeraI and COIDIilunity plans will result in some problems for us in the years ahead. The Regional Growth Management Strategy identifies solutions to the problems resulting from the region's growth. The Land Use Distribution Element of the Strategy (Agenda Report #IS) contains recommendations designed to correct these problems. If adopted as policy by the cities and County, these recommendations will be reflected in future Regional Growth' Forecasts. A forecast beyond the year 200S is needed for transportation and other studies. Staff will work with the Growth Management Committee to prepare this technical forecast. . In KENNEm E.

The Land Use Distribution Element of the strategy identifies the things they can do together to make travel more CODveuient within and between communities. In addition, by increasing the intensity of new development in areas with good transit service, the Element would accommodate projected growth and preserve regional open space, problems identified in the Series 8 growth forecasts. The Land Use Distribution Element establishes access standards - mayimum travel times and distances - to measure travel convenience in the region. To improve the convenience of travel, the Element addresses design, intensity and distribution of urban communities. 1be Element defmes the relationship of the region's communities to the pl.,,""" transportation system, most importantly, the growing transit system. The Land Use Distribution Element was prepared by the Regional Growth Management Technical Committee. The Element was evaluated as put of the rqional growth forecl..mg process and during the preparation of the Regional Transportation Plan (adopted in Febnwy 1~4). It is the Committee's and my RECOMMENDATION that the Boan:I of Directors recommend that the cities and the County: a. approve the Land Use Distribution Element, and . b. implement the land use actions through changes in their general and community plans. /~D ;'1" '-l \j " Discussion ~ Implementation of the Land Use Distribution Element would provide the region's residents the options needed to change their ttavel behavior over time. It would restrUcture growth to improve the region's quality of life as described in the Regional Growth Management Sttategy. The Element achieves its goals by: 1. focusing new growth within walking distance of major transit services, 2. providing mixed-use districts as the centers of the region's communities, 3. providing residential uses within major employment areas, and 4. providing safe and convenient pedestrian and bicycle access. By implementing the Land Use Distribution Element, the cities and the County would reduce daily vehicle trips by 427,000 in the year 2015, daily vehicle miles of ttavel by 4,043,000, and increase daily transit ridership by 28,000 when compared with existing general and community plans. Most of the region's residents would ttavel shorter distances in less time to get to jobs, shopping and services. The forecasted consumption of vacant land could be reduced by more than 80,000 acres. This decrease would be achieved primarily by increasing the average density of newly developing and redeveloping residential land from 5.9 housing uniu per acre to 6.6 uniu per acre. The Land Use Distribution Element was prepared by the Technical Committee to address the jobs/housing balance in the region, as required by the Regional Planning and Growth Control ~ Measure (Proposition C of 1988). Jobs/housing balance is addressed by establishing maximum ttavel time and distance (or access) standards for the home to work trip. The Element also addresses access to shopping and services because these types of trips represent the great majority of dailyttavel. The goals, objectives, policies, and actions of the Land Use Distribution Element, which also was designed as the region's Indirect Source Control progmn required by the California Clean AM Act, are described in the attachment. Implementation by the cities and the County would be reported and monitored through the Regional Growth Management Strategy se1f-certification process. ICBNNETH E.

Attachment LAND USE DISTRIBUTION ELEMENT REGIONAL GROWTH MANAGEMENT STRATEGY July 22, 1994 The purpose of the Regional Growth Management Strategy is to identify the actions we should take to protect and improve our quality of life. Private and public sector actions should help make life in this growing region more convenient for all of us, and help us do the right thing for the regio~ and all of its inhabitants. The Land Use Distribution Eement addresses the location, intensity and design of urban communities, and the relationship of these communities to the planned transportation system. The intent of this element is to improve the region's planning process and to provide guidelines for changes in the cities' and the County's general and community plans. Over time, these changes would provide the option for the region's residents to change their travel behavior. These changes would also allow the region to accommodate its anticipated population growth over the next 20 years. GOALS The following Goals are established for the Land Use Distribution Eement: MAXIMIZE ACCESS TO JOBS, SHOPPING AND SERVICES. AS MEASURED IN TRAVELTIME, COST AND DISTANCE . 'l'llROUGH THE DISTRlBunON AND DESIGN OF FVTURE DEVELOPMENT. PROVIDE SumCIENT URBAN LAl'Io'D TO ACCOMMODATE FORECASTED POPULATION GROwm WHILE PRESERVING ADEQUATE LAND FOR OPEN SPACE. INTRODUCTION During the 1980's, travel in metropolitan areas grew 10 quickly that today, DUmeroUS federa1 and state laws and regulations require localgovemments and regional .,encies to deal directly with traffic congestion and the land use patterns which help create that COIlJestion. California law DOW requires the adoption of a Congestion Management ~O&ram (CYP) at the regional level. The CYP establishes minimum IeMce levels 01\ freeways and ~or ftlIds, and requires local .,encies to take direct action to maintain mobility in their jurisdictions. Both state and federal law require local and regional .,encies to prepare and imp1emet\t plans to improve air quality through controls on automobile travel. 3 /5'//.5 , , A), , \ / .. In addition, the California Clean Air Act requires an .Indirect Source Control Program. to minimize air pollution through land use actions. The best way to implement such a program is '1 to build in long term land use changes in the general plans of local jurisdictions. This Land Use Distribution Element is designed to help create these long term changes and, therefore, to serve as the region's Indirect Source Control Program. The conventional way in which we locate our homes, businesses and public bl!ildings has been a major contributor to traffic congestion and poor air quality. Further, the design of our newer neighborhoods has also forced most of us to make nearly all of our trips, and our children's trips, by car. Congestion could be reduced if there were a better balance of jobs and housing in each community, or if, by some other means, we could make travel easier. On average, the work trip is the longest daily trip which most of us make. But work trips represent only about 20% of the trips made on a normal workday, and nearly half of these work trips are made during off-peak periods. While a community balance of jobs and appropriately priced housing could lessen congestion, this balance would not solve all of the mobility problems we face. To address the full range of mobility needs, the Land Use Distribution Element addresses shopping and service trips as well as work trips. In addition, the currently adopted general and community plans do not accommodate the region's projected residential growth beyond the year 2005. Most of the land planned for urban residential use would be developed by the year 2005 under current plans, leaving very few acres available for habitat conservation and regional recreation uses. """' SUMMARY OF THE LAND USE DISTRIBUTION ELEMENT This Land Use Distribution Element includes goals, objectives, policies, and actions to help the region accommodate the forecasted population growth and improve traffic congestion and air quality. The regional access objectives, shown in Table A, define a maximum acceptable travel time and distance for work trips, as well as those other trips which are made to satisfy our shopping, recreation and service needs. The transportation elements of the Regional Growth Management Strategy already identify many of the actions needed to help meet the access objectives. These include new and improved facilities identified in the Regional Transportation Plan, and congestion DIlUIIIement initiatives identified in the region's Congestion Management Program. In addition, adopted air quality Transportation Control Measures include programs which will help create alternatives to linile- occupant automobile travel. Improvements to the transportation system alone will not allow us to meet the lqionallCCeSS objectives. Land use actions are needed, too. Therefore, the Land Use Distribution Element recommends that new OfflCe, residential and other development be focused around IIil transit stations and in major bus corridors. By focusing development in mixed use centers, more trips will be able to be made by transit, walking and bicycling. Local trips can be consolidated, the """" 4 iY/? . . . potential use of shoner-range alternative fuel vehicles can be increased and some trips can be eliminated through the increased use of electronic travel substitutes. Appropriate design is required to make the focusing of development work. Therefore, the Land Use Distribution Element recommends the preparation of design guidelines which identify desirable design characteristics of development, buildings and public facilities (including streets, sidewalks and bicycle routes). Existing employment areas, which are outside of potential transit focus areas, also should be planned to include a residential clement. As long as environmental conditions do not prevent residential uses, major employment areas should accommodate appropriately priced housing and support facilities to meet the needs of some of the employees working in these areas. The streets within these employment areas should provide for transit, bicycle and pedestrian circulation as well as automobile travel. With increased intensities and mixed-use development in transit focus areas, the land proposed for urbanization in current general and community plans would more than accommodate the projected population growth. Vacant land also would remain for regional recreation and natural habitat preservation. The concepts contained in this Land Use Distribution Element were evaluated as a part of the regional growth forecasting process. This evaluation indicated that, when compared with adopted general and community plans, the implementation of these concepts would require the use of significantly fewer acres of vacant land to accommodate the region's forecasted population growth. It also would reduce both the number of trips made in the region and the total volume of automobile travel, as well as provide some improvement in m quality. The Land Use Distribution Element would help the region achieve its quality of life standards and objectives for transportation, air quality, access, and open space. The ideas contained in this strategy are not new. They are an inte&ral part of the adopted Otay Ranch Plan, MTDB's Transit Development Guidelines, the County's Transportation Demand Management Program and the City of San Diego's Land Guidance Proaram. /5- /? 5 , ! ,/ ," OBJECTIVES -... Objective 1: Average travel times and distances for home-based trips in aU parts of the region should be no greater than those shown in Table A. TABLE A REGIONAL ACCESS OBJECTIVES AREAfI'ravel Mode TRAVELTIME TRAVEL DISTANCE Minutes Miles URBAN AREAS Work Other Work Other Automobile 19 10 10.6 5.1 Transit 50 35 11.0 7.5 RURAL AREAS Automobile 60 20 19.4 12.0 In addition to the quality of life standards and objectives that have been adopted for transportation and air quality. the Land Use Distribution Element establishes access objectives for maximum average travel times and distances for work trips and other trips from or to the home. Objectives are provided for both transit and automobile trips in urban areas and for """ automobile trips in rural areas. The access objectives in Table A are based on forecasted 2015 travel times and distances for the urban and rural zones shown on Figure 1. The travel time and distance are based on approximately 60% of the zones meeting the objectives if the region developed under current general plan and transportation policies. The policies and actions in this Land Use Distribution Element are designed to help the entire region achieve these access objectives within the 2o-year time-frame of the Regional Transportation Plan and regional growth forecasts. Achievement of these objectives would ensure that all residents of the region would have equitable access to jobs, shopping and services regardless of where they live. Because of multiple-worker households, home ownership or other factors, some of the region's residents will continue to commute long distances. Individual mismatches of jobs and housing will inevitably occur; however, the opportunity would exist to work, shop and receive services near home. -... 6 1Y/% " . ~z . . /5//; , e~ J J I ~e I J . i ~ I Jil o 0 i~i Itj~/ (",.t, \':1 ,- . Objective 2: Adequate 'Vacant land should be preserved to accommodate habitat conservation areas and a full range of open space opportunities. ~ The Open Space Element of the Regional Growth Management Strategy is being prepared based on the need for recreation areas as well as natural habitat preservation. A policy and actions promoting Sensitive Lands and Open Space Preservation and Protection were adopted as a part of the Phase 1 Regional Growth Management Strategy in 1993. This policy is being refined, and additional actions will be proposed as part open space planning efforts. Habitat conservation plans arc being prepared based on an extensive data collection, mapping and evaluation effort. Although many general and community plans preserve a portion of the existing habitat areas, it is anticipated that the habitat plans will require additional preservation of land planned for urbanization. Additional land also should be reserved for other open space needs identified in SANDAG's open space planning studies. Once these plans arc defined, this goal can be quantified. POLICIES Land use policies will help the region achieve the goals and objectives of the Land Use Distribution Element.. In addition. related transportation policies also will be needed if the objectives are to be realized. ~ Land Use Policies: The following land use policies, if implemented by the cities and the County, would result in a better balance of residential, employment, commercial and institutional uses in the region's major travel corridors. Implementation of these policies would make it easier for the region's residents to avoid unnecessary travel and would help preserve an adequate amount of vacant land for habitat preservation and recreation. 1. Transportation facilities should be desiped to meet the Deeds of pedestrians and bicycle riders as well as automobile drivers. Circulation Elements of local general plans should emphasize pedestrian and bicycle facilities for trips within communities. Direct pedestrian access should be provided to mnsit stations and within mnsit corridors. Street design can playa significant role in increasing pedestrian, bicycle and mnsit trips throughout the region. In transit focus areas, pedestrian travel should JeQCivc priority. To make walking easier, major streets in all areas should be as 1l8JJOW as possible, while Itill accommodating emergency vehicle, bus and automobUc circulation. The provision of medians on major streets is another way to facilitate pedestrian movement. Local general and community plans should also provide for streets and roads which ~ connect communities, reducing the need to use the region's freeways for relatively short 8 l5- 04:/ . . . trips. These local streets and roads also facilitate more direct automobile and bus transit access. 2. Higber land use intensities should be located in transit access areas. The highest employment intensities and residential densities permitted in the region should be located in major bus transit corridors (Figure 2) and within walking distance . about 1/4 mile - of planned rail transit stations (Figure 3). To insure sufficient ridership potential in major bus transit corridors and near the stations, a minimum average net density of 20 housing units per acre is desirable. Within a quarter mile of rail transit stations, average employment intensities should be at least 60 workers per acre (a floor area ratio of approximately 0.50). In major bus corridors, average employment intensities should be at least 45 workers per acre (a floor area ratio of approximately 0.35). Where current economic conditions do not permit development at these intensities, site plans should be designed to allow for a higher density on the project site in the future. For example, surface parking could be planned for future conversion to structured parking and additional economic uses, including housing. Implementation of this action would require most jurisdictions to change their general or community plans. Outside of downtown San Diego and several other major activity centers, the employment intensities proposed in general and community plans are relatively low. This intensification could occur either by (a) a balance for the lowering of proposed intensities in areas that are not served by a high level of transit service to balance intensities or (b) increasing the permitted amount of development in a jurisdiction. The second of these alternatives is preferable if the second regional objective (of open space preservation) is to be achieved. However, local jurisdictions should make this decision based on the needs of the community. 3. Mixed-use development should be encOUr8&ed in commuDlty ceater areas, indudiD& the areas surrounding ran transit stations and within the bus transit corrldon. Within the transit focus areas, a higher intensity mix of residential, employment, shopping and service uses should be required. Allowin& residential uses above the &round floor also should be considered for existin& commercial areas. Tbese mixed-use areas will permit many of the local trips to be made by foot or bicyc:1e, InCI will make pedestrian access to transit stops more convenient. /y~/ 9 ''\ / \ ,'1 \ ---.-/ ~ i -. - ""'" ".ure2 BUS TRANSIT FOCUS AREAS _ __c.._ .

Mixed use development also is appropriate for community centers which are outside of ~ the transit focus areas, because it provides the opportunity to consolidate trips and 1 encourages walking trips. These community center areas are located in several of the suburban cities, as well as rural communities. As these centers intensify and add JeSidential uses, they may become appropriate locations for future transit facilities. It is recognized that not all transit stations are suitable for higher intensity, mixed use development. For example, a rail station located within the influence area of an airport may have intensity limits that are below those recommended in this Element. Similarly, some station areas may not be suitable for JeSidential development because of noise impacts from airports or from adjacent freeway facilities. . 4. A mix of housing types and prices should be provided within W811<11I& distance of transit stations and in transit corridors. This mix of housing should include small-lot single family units, town houses and apartments. This mix would provide for a range of housing opportunities in each community, and help each jurisdiction achieve the goals in the Regional Housing Needs Statement. The higher density, more affordable housing in the transit corridors would be balanced against the larger lot developments located farther from the station. s. More intensively used public facilities should be located Dear transit stations and stops, within walking or biking distance of the cOlDDlunltles they serve. '""" Libraries, urban parks, hospitals, churches and most civic buildings are examples of more intensively used public facilities. The location of the more intensively used public facilities in the denser areas near high level transit service will increase the opportunity for people to travel to these facilities by walking, riding a bike and transit. In rural areas, this type of public facility should also be located within commercial centers. Public facilities which require more land, such as schools and active recreation sites, should be located near the edges of the mixed-use transit focus areas, adjacent to lower density residential uses. 6. Parking requirements should be reduced within transit locus areas, with olHtreet parking provided in the mixed-use community core areas, wbeaever pncclhle. In anticipation of decreased automobile use, the lowering of parking requirements should be considered in coordination with the adoption of transportation demand manaaement programs. The lower parking requirement would lower costs and provide an incentive to develop near the transit stations and in transit corridors. On-street parking in the transit focus areas helps to c:reate a more walkable environment by separating the pedestrian from vehicular traffic. When on-street parking is not possible, pedestrians should be separated from vehicular traffic by landscaping or other """ suitable barrier. 1 12 /~c;)1 " . 7. Residential uses should be Incorporated Into exlstln& employment areas that are located outside of the transit focus areas. Local general and community plans should permit appropriately sited residential uses within WCe employment areas that are not provided with a high level of transit service, unless potential environmental hazards exist. An objective of providinc housing for the workers employed in the area should be established in the general planninC process. The potential price range of this housing should be based on the types of employment in the area. The general plan also should ensure the adequate provision of public facilities, including schools and recreation areas. 8. DesiCn pidelines should be used to encoura&e the development of traDslt- and pedestrian-friendly communities. . Local jurisdictions should adopt design cuidelines for new and redeveloping areas. These cuidelines should emphasize non-automobile travel, permittinc more convenient access by pedestrians, bicyclists and transit riders. It is expected that these cuidelines will be based on the extensive planninc work already completed by severalloc:al jurisdictions in the region. Model guidelines could be developed by the Regional Growth Management Technical Committee, if needed. While design guidelines are needed most in the transit focus areas, they also should address the design of lower density areas as well. In the areas surroundinc the transit focus areas (between one-quarter and two miles from transit stations or ~or bus corridors), pedestrian and bicycle linkages also are needed. These linka&es would provide for both internal circulation and access to the transit focus areas. Even in rural communities, appropriate desiCn would reduce the need for automobile travel. 9. Lower land use intensities should be located In areas with low tents or transit services or no transit services. . In areas that are not proposed for a high level of transit service, hi&her intensity development should be discouraced. for example, new development on conventional sinCle family lots should be located beyond waDdn& distance of rail transit stations or ~or bus corridors. In auto-oriented areas, intalsities should be established that will not diminish hiihway Jevels of service below those Idopted in the Rqional Growth Mana&ement Suate&y and Coniestion Manaiement PIoJrIm. <- pile 12 and 13). Particularly for employment areas. locaIllenc:ies should IeYiew ~oposed intendti~ of areas that are not in transit focus areas. Many of tbe planned employment areas in the leJion have low development intensities and therefore are difficult to serve with transit. In those areas, employment intensities should be reduced to I Jevel that would DOt have an adverse impact on the legion's hi&hway system or p.O}IOIed land uses should be chanCed to permit an appropriate level of residential development. ;Y~3 13 ",,4 , Transit corridor planning considers, and should continue to consider, the location of ~, major activity centers within the region. High levels of transit service should not be planned for open space and sensitive habitat areas. Ilelated TraDSportation Policies In order to achieve the access objectives of the Land Use Distribution Element, a combination of land use and transportation policies and actions will be required. In addition to the land use policies listed above, a range of transportation agency policies and actions also are important in improving travel time. The following policies are drawn from other elements of the Regional Growth Management Strategy and the Regional Transportation Plan. Actions to implement these policies also are contained in those elements or the Regional Transportation Plan. The related transportation policies are listed below to acknowledge the important relationship of land use and transportation programs in achieving regional objectives. 1. Trame now improvements. Through the adoption of the Transportation Control Measures (TCM) Plan, the region has committed to making a substantial improvement in the optimization of traffic signals to reduce congestion, energy use and improve air quality. Approximately half of the region's 2,000 signals have been coordinated or optimized through an existing State- ~ funded program, with all signals scheduled for optimization by the year 2000. Traffic flow improvements are the most cost-effective TCM evaluated as part of the air quality planning program. Because they tend to decrease travel times, they are criticized for potentially increasing trip distances and even inducing additional automobile trips. Nevertheless, traffic flow improvements are included in the Air Quality TCM's and Congestion Management Plan. 2. TraDSit improvements and expaDSion. -- This measure expands the 2G-year Regional Transportation Plan and the seven-year Short Range Transit Plans of the region's two transit development boards. The measure consists of the conversion of the current bus fleet to low emission vehicles, the expansion of bus services, and the expansion of the rail transit services. The lack of operating funds for transit service expansion remains a major problem in the implementation of this policy. Transportation System Manalement (priority treatments). Transit will be given priority as a part of the proposed traffic now improvements through traffic signal preemption, signal timing and the designation of special lanes for transit use. Within the transit focus areas, traffic flow improvements should include the """ consideration of pedestrian and bicycle travel. On many freeways and some arterial 3. 14 IY c2& . . . 1. " 4. streets, High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lanes will decrease travel times for transit riders and carpool users. These priority treatments are included in the Regional Transportation Plan, Air Quality TCM's and Congestion Management Plan. TelecommutiDl, home-based sboppiDl and other tecbnoloak:al alternatives to the linlle-occupant automobile trip. Electronic communication provides a convenient alternative to many of the work, shopping and service trips which most people make today. Alternatives to physical travel should be encouraged, but specific lovemmental action is not recommended at this time. Telecommuting is a permitted tactic in the regional trip recluction program which is part of the TCM Plan. S. Market-based stratelies to reduce automobile travel. Strategies that require auto drivers to pay more of the true cost of automobile travel should result in shorter trips for employment, shopping and services. As part of the Air Quality TCM's, SANDAG has adopted mileage- and pollution-based vehicle registration fees as the region's primary .market-based" strategy for decreasing automobile travel. Increased registration fees effectively increase the cost of automobile travel for the region's residents, encouraging them to find alternative travel modes. Market-based strategies are being evaluated through a Statewide study. The Transportation Control Measures Plan will be reviewed periodically and when other options are available, such as market-based measures, it can be revised accordingly. ACTIONS The following actions would implement the land use distribution policies listed above (policies 1-9). Actions to implement the related transportation policies are contained in the Re&ional Transportation Plan and other elements of the Regional Growth Management Strate&y. These actions also will help monitor the achievement of the two objectives of the Land Use Distribution :Element. The -Transit Focus Areas. identified in the followinl actions are defined u areas with a high lCvel of transit service. These areas include major bus corridors (shown in Fipre 2) IJId areas within walkinl distance of existina and planned rail transit ltalions (shown in Fipre 3 u Rqional Transit Corridors - Station Areas).

ATTACHMENT C EXCERPT FRO~MINUTES OF RESOURCE CONSERVATION COMMISSION MEETING OF 9/26/94 Resource Conservation Commission PaJte 2 3. Regional Transportation Improvement Program was summarized by Mr. Nuhaily of the Engineering Department. Hall asked if the businesses along the proposed routes would be assessed, and why these particular projects are being done now when other roads are in worse condition. Mr. Nuhaily stated businesses would not be assessed since the improvements would benefit the general public. He further explained that after Proposi- tion A's pa~""ge of the !he sales tax in 1987 to improve the roads, these particular projects had been identified and were just continuing on. Hall also asked if the funding was from the 125 toll road. Mr. Nuhaily stated those were different funds and TransNet funds are meant for the work on the specifically named streets on this project. On a side note, he also explained the difference of the ISTEA funds. Fisher commented on the Otay Valley Road bridge which supports truck traffic through San Diego. Marquez noted that for fiscal 1994-1995 these projects went through without comments from RCC. Mr. Nuhaily added that the bridge that recently washed out is being repaired through this funding as well, although it was not specifically stated in the plans before. . 4.

J~~3? Byline: Dateline: .. UNION-TRIBUNE 08-0ct-1994 Saturday 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 NEWS A-3 High court to review rejected law capping RICHARD CARELLI WASHINGTON )71 CC1f(( ':"J v', .-t -.,-,' ,.; ~L :;~ >.,.. ~. Paper Name: Pub. Date: Edition: Section: Page: Headline: welfare restriction I Lower courts newcomers' aid .... - .. WASHINGTON -- The Supreme Court will decide whether California and other states may limit the benefits paid to some welfare recipients who have lived there less than a year. The court voted yesterday to review rulings that said a California law imposing such limits violated new residents' constitutional right of interstate travel. Lawye7s for californ~a told t~e justices that a 1992 state law limiting benef~ts un~er the A~d to Fam~lies with Dependent Children (AFDC) program for new resJ.dents "does not operate as a penalty on migration" and should be allowed. But lawyers for welfare recipients urged the court to reject the state's appeal and preserve Ha quarter-century of this court's precedents on residency discrimination." The 1992 law, part of an effort to cut spending in the face of a state budget crunch, limited applicants receiving AFDC benefits who had not lived in California for the 12 preceding months to the amount their family was entitled to in their prior state. State officials said the law would save California $8.4 million in fiscal year 1992-93 and $22.5 million in 1993-94. For individual families, the law would have cut benefits by up to 80 percent for their first year in california. For example, a family of four moving to california from Mississippi would receive only $144 a month for the first year instead of the standard California AFDC benefit of $743. Three welfare recipients challenged the law in behalf of all new residents eligible for AFDC benefits. The lawsuit said the residency law violated their fundamental constitutional right to travel. A federal judge barred enforcement of the law, ruling that "the state's interest in reducing welfare costs is not sufficient to justify the disparate treatment of this class of needy residents." The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals upheld that ruling last April. California's appeal contended that past SUpreme Court rulings banning states from discriminating against new residents involved permanent -- not temporary -- distinctions based on length of state residency. Those past rulings, the appeal said, do not bar states from giving "new residents the same level of welfare benefits they would have received in their st~te of prior residence for a limited period of time." The appeal was supported in a friend-of-the-court brief submitted by the conservative Washington Legal Foundation, 20 state legislators and three Republican congressmen from California -- Michael Buffington, Stephen Horn and Richard Pombo.
