Chula Vista Town Centre Project Area Committee
"Land Use Pol icy"
A. General Statements of Policy
The Town Centre Project Area Committee accepts the land-use goals and objectives
embodied in the Redevelopment Plan, and the developmental guidelines and concepts
constituent to the Town Centre Design Manual. The Committee, therefore, shall
encourage the Project Area's redevelopment into the South Bay's principal mer-
cantile center for the purveyance of specialty goods and services. In further-
ance of this policy, the Committee will base its land-use decisions and recom-
m~ndations upon the principles of sound city planning and community development.
The Project Area Committee, furthermore, recognizes that land-use order and
good townscape planning are one and inseparable, and that its land-use decisions
must be coordinated with the decisions and recommendations of the Town Centre
Design Review Board. The Committee, therefore, will require each land-use
applicant to meet the requirements of the Design Review Board as a condition of
Committee approval.
B. General Policy Guidelines
1. The Committee will not approve land uses which would preclude or deter
the effective redevelopment of the Project Area.
2. The Committee will not approve commercial land uses which would place the
economic vitality of the Town Centre in jeopardy.

residential enjoyment within the Town Centre.

affect the fluid movement of traffic within the Project Area.

abnormally high levels of noise.
6. The Committee will not approve commercial land uses which would discourage
the purveyance of qualitative specialty goods and services in the Town
Centre.

with the concept of "townness."
