for schools and are spending this money for schools outside the City
boundaries. In the last two years, the school district collected over 1
million dollars. He urged the people to let their school district members
know of this concern.
PUBLIC HEARINGS AND RELATED RESOLUTIONS AND ORDINANCES
4. PUBLIC HEARING CONSIDERATION TO TERMINATE PCZ 84-D; REZONING OF
APPROXIMATELY 225 ACRES LOCATED EASTERLY OF
BRANDYWINE AVENUE AND NORTHERLY OF OTAY VALLEY ROAD
FROM I-P TO -I-L-P (Continued from the meeting of May
14, 1985} (Director of Planning)
This being the time and place as advertised, Mayor Cox opened the public
hearing.
Director of Planning Krempl stated that on May 14, 1985, the Council continued
this item to get a recommendation from the Otay Valley Road Project Area
Committee. The Committee met on June lO and recommended termination of the
rezoning.
In addition, a separate report has been submitted by the Director of Public
Safety addressing the issue of the inadequate water pressure for the Hyspan
expansion.
City Council Meeting - 3 - June ll, 1985
Director Krempl explained that the City Council, at its meeting of
November 15, 1983, voted unanimously to initiate a general plan amendment and
rezoning for approximately 225 acres in the Otay Valley Redevelopmerit Project
Area, 1 ocated northerly of Otay Valley Road and easterly of Brandywine Avenue,
from General Industrial and I-P to Research and Limited Industrial and I-L-P.
The Planning Commission recommended the Council adopt the General Plan
A~endment and continue consideration of the rezoning until the Implementation
Plan and Design Manual for the Otay Valley Road Redevelopmerit Area were
brought before them.
The Otay Valley Road Redevelopment Project Area Implementation Plan {Design
Manual Addendum) was adopted by the Council on March 21, 1985 and amended on
April 18, 1985. Staff believes this rezoning request is no longer necessary
and should be terminated.
Mr. Greg Garrett, 530 "B" Street, San Diego, attorney for Crown Chemical
Corporation stated they are supporting the recommendation of the Planning
Commission and staff to terminate the rezoning proceedings.
There being no further commentSeither for or against~ the hearing was declared
closed.
Councilman Scott stated he cannot support the staff recommendation and will be
voting against the motion since the Council made an explicit promise to change
that zoning.
MSC (McCandliss/Malcolm) to terminate the rezoning (PCZ 84-D). The motion
carried with Councilman Scott voting~n~.
a. REPORT REGARDING THE STATUS OF WATER SUPPLY FIRE RESPONSE
TIME AND THE NUMBER OF FIRE RESPONSES ON OTAY VALLEY
ROAD
The Director of Public Safety reported that the Chula Vista Fire Department
and other fire departments follow specific water supply standards which
increase with the square footage of the proposed structure. These
requirements can be reduced by 50% if the structure is provided with a
sprinkler system.
Based on those standards, the area west of Maxwell Road, with a water pressure
of 3,000 gpm, is adequate to provide reasonable fire services. The area east
of Maxwell has only 1,SO0 gallons per minute. Any commercial or industrial
structure in this area would not meet the standards unless it was also
sprinklered and no greater than 15,000 square feet. This would obviously be a
severe limitation to most commercial industrial development in this area
because it would exceed 15,000 square feet in most instances.
MSUC (Malcolm/Cox) to accept the report.
Councilman Moore questioned what will be done in the future as far as the
shortage of water is concerned.
City Council Meeting - 4 - June ll, 1985
MSUC for an oral or a written report (at a later date) on the future water
pressure for this area.
5. PUBLIC NEARING GPA-83-7 EL RANCHO DEL REY SPECIFIC PLAN AMENDMENT
(Director of Planning)
a. ORDINANCE 2114 APPROVING THE AMENDMENT TO THE EL RANCHO DEL REY
SPECIFIC P~N CASE NO. ~A-83-7 (May 15, 1985) WITH
CONDITIONS - FIRST READING
This being the time and place as advertised, Mayor Cox opened the public
hearing.
Director of Planning Krempl stated that at the time the original application
was filed for this particular property (Getsten's) staff advertised the
out-parcels also. At the last meeting, Council asked that the out-parcel
owners come forward with their own requests. Since the out-parcels were
advertised in the original application, the Council can consider them this
evening. Staff recommendation is that there be no additional changes for the
out-parcels.
Mr. Krempl explained that the subject of this hearing request tonight by.~
Getsten Company is for certain amendments to E1 Rancho Del Rey Specific Plan.
Included in this proposal are the ten "out-parcels" and for continuity
purposes, but not for amendment, the remainder of the entire E1 Rancho Del Rey
Specific Plan Area.
On May 22, 1985, the P1 anning Con~nission recommended denial of this request.
The staff recommendation is that Council approve the proposed E1 Rancho Del
Rey Specific Plan as amended, subject to three conditions. Based on Planning
Commission's suggestion, staff has included the following conditions to the
text:
(1) There shall be no permits issued for any development within the
Corcoran Ranch SPA or sub-area before the City and the developer
enter into an agreement, which will ensure that the Public Facility
Financing Plan, Phasing Plan and other obligations of the developer
are met and adhered to.
(2) Traffic analysis and monitoring shall be required with each SPA or
sub-area plan.
(3) That the junior high school site be increased to 25 acres in size.
Mr Krempl submitted transparencies comparing the '78 Plan versus the '85 Plan,
the issues involved, the employment park and traffic circulation. He stated
the advantages of the 85 Plan were: {1) the public facilities, {2) open
space, (3) circulation, (4) the mix of housing adding that the estate housing,
City Council Meeting - 5 - June ll, 1985
271 units, on the north ridge was a new concept. Director Krempl
further explained the proposed road alignment, noting the bulk of
the traffic will be stemming from the employment park area, but
there will be mitigations such as widening Telegraph Canyon Road to
six lanes, having "H" Street as a six-lane arterial, Paseo Ranchero
four lanes, and portions of Otay Lakes Road will be widened along
with the intersection improvements at 1-805 and "H" Street. This
will function at a higher level and in a better fashion to handle
the traffic.
Mr. Andrew Schlaefi, Vice-president, Urban Systems Associates, Incorporated
referred to his detailed report and analysis. Mr. Schlaefi presented various
transparencies showing a pl at of the "H" Street/I-805 interchange and the
traffic counts at peak hours. He stated that in his study, they made
assumptions for more traffic trips per day basing their figures presented by
CALTRANS and SANDAG. Traffic comparisons were noted with the interchanges of
I-5 and 1-805 at La Jolla Village Drive and Mira Mesa Boulevard. In response
to Council's questions, Mr. Schlaefi stated that with the signalization and
the improvements along "H" Street, the level of service would be a
"B"--presently it is a "C" to "D." In response to Councilwoman McCandliss's
question, concerning the rate and factors as applied to EastLake and the
college' traffic area, Traffic Engineer ~ ass stated that the college area was
one of the sites used in the SANDAG trip generation rates. He is comfortable
with the projection of ten trips per day for attached units and eight for
condo units. Council discussion followed with Mr. Schlaefi answering
questions pertaining to the "worst case" for a development as far as traffic
is concerned; the employment park area--the new versus the old; the increase
in the acreage of the park area; the preservation of the canyons (three will
be preserved in their natural state); the requirement for low and moderate
income housing in this area; the density as compared with Terra Nova and other
developments; what benefit is the City getting for the increased density; the
controls that the City Council has to stop the development along the way if
all the issues are not resolved; the benefits derived are the broader spectrum
of housing for the community covering all types; and a question as to "the
negatives" of this plan. Director Krempl stated that he had concerns
regarding the grading, the density increase, and the preservations of the
canyons~ however, he now feels that most of these issues have been addressed.
The initial request for 5,300 units was reduced by 1,000 units.
A recess was called at 8:55 p.m. and the meeting reconvened at 9:03 p.m.
Mr. Bill Robens, 354 Camino Elevado, Chula Vista,representing the Gersten
Company, noted the Council's direction at the meeting of May 14 stating all of
the issues directed by the Council have been resolved and changes have been
made to comply. The criteria as specified in the 1978 Plan have also been
met. Mr. Robens stated that this '85 Plan is a much better plan for the
people of Chula Vista: the circulation system has been improved; there is
estate housing; a better open space plan; more stringent controls; the
employment park benefits everyone in the community--there will be 4,000 jobs
available at the employment park which will provide from 1.1 to 1.2 million
m' IT
City Council Meeting - 6 - June ll, 1985
dollars additional revenues to the City; the flyer circulated to all the
residents in that area had a great deal of "misinformation", addressed the
issue of the traffic especially as it relates to the employment park; noted
the level of service which will be provided. Mr. Robens added that the bottom
line is that with mitigation, every level of service from this project will be
a "B" or better.
Speaking in opposition were:
William Cannon, 4080 Bermuda Dunes Place, Bonita; Peter Watry, 81 Second
Avenue, Chula Vista; Richard Michelsen, 3953 Ninth Street, San Diego, Joseph
Cunanings, 1848 Ithaca Street, Chula Vista; Julie Schultz, 613 East "j" Street,
Chula Vista; Cary Wright, 242 East "j" Street, Chula Vista, Robert Maxwell,
473 Berland Way, Chula Vista; Mike Massis, 546 East "J" Street, Chula Vista;
Jane Costello, 760 Cassia Place, Chula Vista; and Dave Foreman, 1653 Point
Cabrillo Court, Chula Vista.
Their comments in summary were:
(1) The major concern is the traffic.
(2) 77,500 trips per day will be generated by this project.

Mayor Cox noted the written communications received:
Cliff Roland, Bob Thompson, Joe Bordi, ~eral d LaLande, Cheryl Castill o,
Sweetwater Union High School District and the flyer submitted by Crossroads.
There being no further comments either for or against, the hearing was
declared closed.
Council discussion followed regarding the intersection at Ridgeback and "H"
Street and the traffic count in that area. Mr. Schlaefi stated the
accumulative traffic count was 47,800 trips. There will be 73,000 to 74,000
trips generated by this project.
Further Council discussion invol red the eight lanes projected for Telegraph
Canyon Road with two of the lanes dedicated for left turns; staff
recommendation for 300 less dwelling units; "Crossroads" requesting the units
be reduced by 1,100; comparison with having an employment park with one-story
City Council Meeting - 8 - June 11, 1985
buildings as opposed to the two-story condominiums now constructed along "H"
Street; "H" Street is a quasi-scenic highway; the development agreement is a
big plus; there was no public facility financing plan in the 1978 Plan; the
Council has total control over each phase of development; the P1 an proposed
tonight is one for "too many people on too small a place and too much traffic
for this project to handle." Councilwoman McCandliss stated she would like to
see the plan reduced by an additional 800 units over that proposed by staff.
Councilman Scott commented the high level of development is in the employment
park area and this will be built in the first phase. He would like to have
the 1978 plan approved since it generated less traffic. City Attorney Harron
noted that one requirement is that the developers be consistent with the
General P1 an. Director Krempl noted that the timing of the development
---be 15-20 years. Councilman Moore declared the City should not go below "C"
level traffic standards.
MS (McCandliss/Scott) the Specific Plan be returned to staff to work out with
the developer a reduction of 800 dwelling units.
Discussion of the motion followed. Councilman Malcolm indicated there needs
to be a good reason to cut down on the density. He noted that Rohr Industries
has purchased a piece of property in another state and have indicated they may
move out of the City. In this particular project, the Council has the "checks
and balances" to exercise complete control over each phase of the
development. Councilman Malcolm added he will be voting against the motion.
Mayor Cox discussed the evolution of this plan going back to 1968 making the
following observations: (1) the 1978 plan was put together by staff and at
that time, they did not have the expertise for designing a plan of this size;
{2) the EastLake project has crystallized projects in a realistic manner, {3)
the Gersten project has been analyzed by the City staff and it is their
opinion that the project is a workable one and a better plan than the 1978,
(4) the 1978 plan was all residential, {5) there was no employment park. As
to comparisons with the 1978 and 1985 plan, the Mayor stated that "H" Street
is still going to be a six-lane road and there will still be the same number
of traffic signals along "H" Street. With the mitigation measure, the Council
can guarantee to the citizens they will not see the same traffic situation as
presently on Bonita Road/I-805.
The motion failed by the following vote:
AYES: McCandliss, Scott
NOES: Cox, Malcolm, Moore
ABSENT: None.
MSUC {Moore/Scott) to amend the paragraph B-3 {page 36 of the traffic report)
to state that traffic level "C" is the service standard to be maintained.
MSUC {Malcolm/Moore) to place the ordinance as amended on its first reading.
The reading of the text was waived by unanimous consent. The ordinance passed
by the following vote toH~it:
AYES: Malcolm, Moore, Cox
NOES: McCandliss, Scott
ABSENT: None.

OVERRIDING CONSIDERATIONS FOR THE EL RANCHO DEL REY
SPECIFIC PLAN AMENDMENT
The Final EIR for the E1 Rancho del Rey Specific Plan Amendments identifies
several potentially significant impacts. Therefore, it is necessary to adopt
"CEQA findings" to describe how the project, in its final form, mitigates
those impacts or why it is not feasible to mitigate those impacts. The
Council will also adopt a statement of overriding considerations.
In answer to Council's questions, Environmental Coordinator Reid explained the
biological resources have been mitigated to an acceptable level of acceptance
to the City.

31 OF THE HEALTH AND SAFETY CODE OF CALIFORNIA
(Community Development Director)
Director of Community Development Desrochers submitted a report noting the
amending resolution empowers the Housing Finance Agency to exercise eminent
domain but only in the pursuit of the purposes for which the agency was
formed, which is to provide tax-exempt single-family mortgages. The power is
granted to satisfy a technicality, and there is no contemplation of its being
exercised. The proposed action will allow the issuance of $25 million in
tax-exempt bonds in the jurisdictions of Escondido and Chula Vista to provide
below-market interest rate single-family mortgages to eligible homebuyers in
Chula Vista and Escondido.
ll. RESOLUTION 12044 APPROVING AGtEEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA
AND PACIFIC SCENE INVESTMENTS, INC. FOR DESI~
SERVICES FOR TRAFFIC SI)AL AT THE INTERSECTION OF
EAST "H" STREET/HIDDEN VISTA DRIVE AND AUTHORIZING
THE MAYOR TO EXECUTE SAID AGREEMENT (Director of
Public Works/City Engineer)
A new shopping center, Terra Nova Plaza, is being developed on the south side
of East "H" Street east of 1-805 by Pacific Scene Investments, Inc. Their
schedule calls for a major opening in November of this year. When the
shopping center opens, a traffic signal will be needed at the main entrance
opposite Hidden Vista Drive. In order to assure that the traffic signal
project is completed by November, it was recommended that the developer have
the signal designed by a consultant and be reimbursed for the design cost when
the first traffic signal fees are paid.
Mayor Cox stated he received a telephone call from the Western Council of
Engineers stating that they are now withdrawing their opposition to this
resolution.
Assistant City Manager Asmus noted that it was through the efforts of the
Director of Public Works John Lippitt that this has come about. Councilman
Moore questioned whether there was any work being done to dedicate a right
!I[
City Council Meeting - ll June ll, 1985
hand turn onto 1-805 northbound offramp to eastbound "H" Street. He stated
motorists should not have to come to a full stop to go onto this shopping
center. Director of Public Works Lippitt stated this could be worked into the
agreement.
12. RESOLUTION 12045 AUTHORIZING STAFF TO MAKE A "GOOD FAITH" OFFER TO
UNITED ENTERPRISES FOR THE ACQUISITION OF
RIGHT-OF-WAY TO COMPLETE THE WIDENING OF TELEG~APH
CANYON ROAD (Director of Public Works/City Engineer)
Several years ago, City Council authorized condemnation action to acquire
right-of-way from United Enterprises for Telegraph Canyon Road widening. The
action was for a 57-foot wide pavement section between the existing four-lane
roadway easterly of Paseo Ladera and Rutgets Avenue. Subsequent modifications
to that original request have resulted in a report to Council last year which
indicated that Charter Point would be responsible for four lanes of pavement,
bike lanes, and a median island between Apache Drive and Otay Lakes Road which
would result in additional right-of-way needed in that location but no
right-of-way needed westerly of the telephone company and easterly of
transition of Otay Lakes Road. An appraisal has been prepared for this
right-of-way and it is now appropriate for Council to authorize City staff to
make an offer to United Enterprises based upon the appraisal.
13. RESOLUTION 12046 ACCEPTING BIDS AND AWARDING CONTRACT FOR CITY HALL
REMODEL IN THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA (Director of
Public Works/City Engineer and Director of Building
and Housing)
On May 22, 1985, the City Engineer received sealed bids for the work which
involves the remodeling of the old City Council Chamber, a portion of the City
Council area, the City Clerk area and the adjacent hallway.
The recommendation is that Council:
(1) Authorize the expenditure of $91,000.
(2) Accept bids and award contract to Ronco Construction, La Mesa, in
the amount of $82,831.
Councilman Moore asked that the City Manager be cognizant of the fact that
there should be bookshelves built for the City Council's office before the
existing ones are torn out.
14. RESOLUTION 12047 APPROVING AGREEMENT WITH SOUTH BAY COMMUNITY SERVICES
TO PROVIDE YOUTH COUNSELING SERVICES AND AUTHORIZING
THE MAYOR TO EXECUTE SAID A(~REEMENT (Director of
Public Safety)
The Chula Vista Police Department has been operating a Juvenile
Counselor/Youth Diversion Program since 1972. Since the inception of the
City Council Meeting - 12 - June ll, 1985
program the City employed four counselors all of whom have subsequently
resigned to enter private practice. Instead of hiring another Youth
Counselor, staff recommends entering into a contractual agreement with South
Bay Community Services (SBCS) to provide these counseling services.
Our annual cost to provide a Youth Counselor, including fringe benefits, is
$31,740. SBCS will provide this counseling service for an annual cost of
$21,702.
End of Consent Calendar.
8. RESOLUTION 12048 ACCEPTING BIDS, AWARDING CONTRACTS FOR OPEN SPACE
DISTRICT NOS. 1 THROU~ ll (Acting Director of Parks
and Recreation)
During the September 6, 1983 meeting, Council approved departmental
recommendation that bidding of landscape maintenance contracts for the Open
Space Districts be performed on an annual basis. Bids to provide landscape
maintenance in Districts 1 through ll were let out on April 22 and received
on May 22, 1985.
The recommendation is that Council accept bids and award contracts to the
following low bidders:
Cal/Scape for District Nos. 4, 5 and ll
Helping Hands Landscape Co. for District Nos. 2, 3, 7 and 8
Sensational Creations Landscape Co. for District Nos. l, 6 and lO.
· In answer to Councilman Moore's question, Acting Director of Parks and
Recreation Foncerrada explained the increase in the contract prices--one major
reason being the new district (#11)
15. REPORT OF THE CITY MANAGER
City Manager Goss stated there is a need for the Council to meet with staff on
meet and confer items at Closed Session.
MSUC (McCandliss/Malcolm) to schedule a Closed Session for the Council for
purposes of meet and confer for Tuesday, June 18, beginning at 6:30 p.m.
(prior to the regular City Council meeting).
REPORTS OF CITY OFFICERS AND DEPARTMENT HEADS
.~ 16. REPORT REVIEW OF ALTERNATIVE CITY LOGOS (Director of
Management Services)
At its meeting of April 22, the City Council reviewed several alternatives for
a City logo and selected two alternatives for further consideration. At that
meeting, the Council asked the design consultant to refine these two
alternatives including the preparation of color renderings and typical
applications.
City Council Meeting - 13 - June ll, 1985
On May 30, the design consultant presented to the Council the refinements and
typical applications for the two selected logo alternatives. That artwork has
been displayed in the Mayor/Council Office area since May 30. The
recommendation is that Council select one of the two logo alternatives and
authorize the final artwork to be prepared.
Mr. Len Torres, Art Consultant, stated that because of the lateness of the
hour (11:30 p.m.) he could come back at another meeting. Mayor Cox stated he
would like to have Mr. Torres bring back another sketch of the logo which
shows the sun, water and mountains--to have the mountains more reflective of
"our mountains" as opposed to that depicted on the logo which is "nondescript."
MSUC {Cox/McCandliss) to defer this item until next Thursday (june 20) to be
heard at the beginning of the Redevelopment Agency meeting which meets at
4:00 p.m. and for a request for Mr. Torres to do one final sketch (showing the
mountain).
(Councilman Scott left the meeting at this time--ll:33 p.m.)
17. REPORT SOLICITING PROPOSALS FOR DEVELOPMENT OF CITY-OWNED
PROPERTY AND RESTAURANT AT THE CHULA VISTA MUNICIPAL
GOLF COURSE (Director of Community Development)
For the past year, the development of the vacant parcel adjacent to the
Municipal Golf Course has been under review. Two worthwhile plans were
presented to the Council; however, they were found to be incomplete inasmuch
as the golf course/restaurant parking lot was not taken into consideration
relative to the overall development. There is a need to coordinate such
development into a master pl an so that the City-owned facilities (including
the American Golf leasehold) compliment one another, work well together, and
are utilized to the highest and best use.
The recommendation is that Council authorize preparation of Request for
Proposals to be due August 16, 1985 for development of the vacant parcel,
restaurant and parking facilities combined.
MSUC (Malcolm/McCandliss) to approve the report.
18. MAYOR'S REPORT: None
