CONSENT CALENDAR (Continued)
On May 19, 1998, the Agency approved a Special Use Permit for the establishment of the San
Diego County Family Resource Center at 690 Oxford Street. On September 22, 1998, the
Agency entered into an Owner Participation Agreement (OPA) with Palomar Station, LLC
and approved plans for the construction ora building to be occupied by the County Family
Resource Center. Palomar Station, LLC subsequently assigned its rights and responsibilities
related to the OPA to 675 Oxford, LLC As a condition of approval of the Special Use
Permit and the OPA, the Agency requested the Developer to provide adequate and safe
access from the proposed building to the Palomar Trolley Station.
Staff recommendation: Agency/Council adopt the resolution.
Agency Member/Deputy Mayor Salas stated that they were being asked to subsidize the
improvements of a pathway leading from the trolley station to the Family Resource Center in the
amount of $186,000, and she had a problem with that Staff had indicated that $70,000 would be
coming from the MTDB Billboard Reserve Fund, and it was bet understanding that even though that
money could be used f~r other things, it was to be used primarily by tile City for the purpose of
improving landscape in the trolley right-of-way. She felt the money should not be diverted for other
uses. According to the staff report, the agreement with MTDB and the Billboard Reserve Fund is
about to expire and by diverting the funds, it could lock the City into extending the agreement
possibly for several years so that the City could recoup that money. Secondly, the $51,000 from the
unappropriated balance of the Transportation Partnership Fund are suppose to be dedicated for the
enhancement improvements of the City's roadways and, again, this money is being diverted. Then
we are being asked to use $65,000 f¥om the general fund to be paid in the future with the Billboard
Fund. When the City entered into initial discussions, it was to be a shared project with MTDB and
the County of San Diego. Now the burden }las fallen completely, 100%, on the City. It is a regional
building, of regional benefit, and benefitting the County. She stated that she would vote for the
project but only with a referral that staffgo back to the County to see whether or not they have
revenue to pay for this.
Agency/Councilmember Moot stated that he was in agreement with Agency Member/Deputy Mayor
Salas and in conjunction with her referral suggested that a letter from the City be sent to both
entities. When the project was approved, it was clear that they would pay their share of costs. A
letter should be written to tbe President of MTDB and Supervisor Cox advising them that the City
is extremely upset that they did not come through with their share of funding and ask them to
seriously reconsider their position, because the City works in a cooperative environment on County-
wide projects and should not have to bear the sole costs of providing MTDB ridership and County
people access to the building.
Agency/Councih'nember Davis stated that she supported the project and also agreed with her
colleagues.

The City, Agency, and the San Diego Unified Port District ("Port") are currently in the process of redeveloping the Chula
Vista Bayfront. The successful redevelopment of the Bayfront will require integrated planning that will involve real property
owned by Agency, Port, and other parties, City, Agency, BFG, and Port have entered into a Relocation Agreement dated
July 13, 1999 setting forth their agreement with respect to the consolidation and relocation of BFG's facilities and
operations of BFG's existing campus north of the proposed H Street extension. In consideration of its substantial
investment in the relocation, BFG desires to receive assurance through a development agreement ("Development
Agreement") that they may proceed with development in accordance with existing rules, regulations and official policies of
the City and Agency. In exchange BFG has agreed to cooperate with adjacent Bayfrent development proposals and to
cedain development restrictions on its own property.
The Environmental Review Coordinator has determined that no new environmental impacts that have not been previously
addressed in the Bayfront Specific Plan EIR and the Mitigated Negative Declaration for the BFG Relocation Agreement will
occur as a result of the approval of the proposed Development Agreement.

MEETING DATE 10/lg/gg
That the City Council conduct the public hearing and place the ordinance on first reading; and that the Council/Agency
approve the proposed Development Agreement in accordance with the attached Ordinance based on the findings and
subject to the conditions contained therein.
The Planning Commission voted 5/0 to recommend that the Redevelopment Agency/City Council approve the proposed
Development Agreement in accordance with the attached City Council Ordinance based on the findings and subject to the
conditions contained therein.
1. Backqround
The proposed project is a Development Agreement for the reconfigured BFG aerospace office and manufacturing campus.
The project site is generally bounded by Bay Boulevard to the east, the realigned Marina Parkway to the west, F
Street/Lagoon Drive to the north, and the proposed extension of H Street to the south. The project site is further described
on Attachment 3. BFG, and its predecessor, Rohr, Inc. have operated aviation and aerospace related manufacturing on
the Chula Vista bayfront for over 50 years. Within that time, significant expansion of the Rohr facilities has occurred,
including expansion onto fill land that is currently held in trust by the Port. In 1997 Rohr was acquired by the BF Goodrich
Company and currently operates as BF Goodrich Aerospace, Aerostructures Group.
Due to a number of factors, including changes in manufacturing processes, increased efficiency, and market changes,
certain land and buildings within the existing BFG campus are not fully utilized. The purpose of the Relocation Agreement,
approved by the City Council/Agency on July 13, 1999, is to facilitate the consolidation of operations for BFG onto a
smaller area of land. This will allow the redevelopment of the vacated lands, resulting in increased economic productivity,
and potentially reducing growth pressures on other areas of the community.
Under the Relocation Agreement, BFG transfers fee ownership of approximately 37.6 acres to the Port and vacates
current leasehold interest south of the proposed H street extension to Marina Parkway. In exchange the Port will transfer
fee title ownership of 16.66 acres (please see attached exhibit). Additionally the Port will arrange for the conveyance of
fee title ownership of the SDG&E and MTDB rights-of-way that currently bisect the BFG property. An easement over this
entire area would be retained by SDG&E for the electrical transmission lines and other facilities. The City agrees to
convey properties (approximately 3 acres) that are currently owned in fee by the City to BFG, and agrees to arrange for the
transfer of an additional 3.02 acre parcel owned by the Rados Brothers.
After the property transfers, BFG has until Januaw, 2003 to relocate its south of H Street operations to the consolidated
"New Campus" north of H Street. Both BFG and the Port shall share in the costs of environmental review and remediation
for the "South Campus" properties being vacated by BFG per the terms of the Relocation Agreement. The Relocation
Agreement also provides financing assistance to BFG from the Agency to facilitate the construction of industrial
manufacturing facilities, related offices and ancillary support facilities, and finance equipment newly developed,
rehabilitated, or installed during the Relocation Period. The Agency subsidy is limited to the amount of tax increment
generated by such facilities. The agreement also contemplates substantial Port funding and construction of the H Street
extension project and a realigned Marina Parkway. The Relocation Agreement also contemplates the negotiation and
processing for consideration of the proposed Development Agreement.
PAGE 3, ITEM
MEETING DATE 10/19/99
2. Nature of Proposal
The item presented for your consideration is a statutory Development Agreement for the consolidated BFG campus (see
site map attached). This type of Development Agreement is expressly provided for under California Government Code
Sections 65864 through 65869.5. Developers request such agreements to "vest" their land use entitlements, typically for a
project that is expected to be built out over many years. Entitlements that are "vested" cannot be changed in the future by
the local governing agency except, typically, in the case of unforseen risk to public health or safety. No specific physical
construction activities are being proposed by BFG at this time. Some improvements requiring permitting and Design
Review approval are expected, however, as part of BFG's relocation and consolidation process. The potential for
expansion of "New Campus" office and industrial facilities in the future is unknown at this time. A copy of the proposed
Development Agreement is attached (see Attachment 4). A summary of its terms and conditions are set fodh below.

4. Analysis
Vestinq
BFG proposes to invest approximately $50 million dollars in an area where they are adjacent to visitor commercial uses.
They desire the assurance of being allowed to continue their industrial use. The Development Agreement gives BFG the
vested right to implement all existing permitted uses for a period of up to twenty years. This term would expire if and when
BFG defaults under the Relocation Agreement. BFG would still be required to obtain all permits required under existing
land use laws. The City/Agency reserves the right to impose new land use laws that are consistent with the existing laws,
and changes to existing laws in the event of an unforseen threat to public health or safety.
PAGE 4, ITEM
MEETING DATE 10/19/99
RADOS AND AGENCY PARCELS
BFG intends to use the Rados and Agency pamels for parking and open storage, BFG is required to obtain all
appropriate permits in order to allow this to occur, and the City/Agency retains the right to impose reasonable conditions on
such uses, BFG agrees to use is best efforts to (a) minimize and screen open storage of equipment and materials, and (b)
not to use the perimeter of the New Campus for open storage. BFG agrees not to use the Rados parcel for open storage
at any time and acknowledges and agrees that such use shall not be permitted.
The City/Agency shall be granted an easement over a portion of the Rados Parcel for the installation and maintenance of a
Bayfront Redevelopment Project Area "entry statement", If after six years from the effective date of the agreement BFG
has not committed to the development of the Rados Parcel into a permanent use that is integrated with an industrial and/or
office development project, the Agency shall have the right to reacquire the Rados Parcel pursuant to the terms and
conditions of the Development Agreement.
BFG's OBLIGATION TO COOPERATE/NO CHALLENGE
The Development Agreement states that BFG will not oppose, challenge or seek conditions or mitigation measures in
connection with land use permits and other approvals necessary for development of projects proposed within the Bayfrent
Redevelopment Project Area consistent with or less impactive than the existing rules, regulation and official policies. In
addition BFG shall reasonably cooperate with the Agency in its processing, approval and implementation of adjacent
developments.
DEVELOPMENT F[ESTRICTIONS
BFG agrees to submit to the Agency a master plan showing vertical improvements for the ultimate development of their
property prior to processing permits for such improvements. In order to develop the site, presently the Bayfrent Specific
Plan/Coastal Development Application Permit Procedures Manual requires a presubmittal conference, submittal of
sufficient drawings to establish the functional land use, basic design and landscape concept, materials, architectural
features, signage, and finish, staff review, formal submittal to the Design Review Committee, and submittal of plans to the
Redevelopment Agency for an Owner Participation Agreement.
SUMMARY
Staff recommends approval of the Development Agreement. The Development Agreement is part of a larger substantial
redevelopment project on the Bayfront. The Development Agreement helps eliminate the uncertainty in planning for BFG
allowing them the opportunity to master plan the property per the existing rules, regulations, and policies of the City and
Agency, It also provides the City with some assurances that BFG will undergo a master planning process for site
development, and will cooperate with other development proposals on adjacent Bayfront properties
The Development Agreement's fiscal impact is confined to staff time necessary to prepare it. The staff time is eligible for
reimbumement by the Bayfrent Project Area,

~MEOOOOD.DOC
any default. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, any failure or delay by the
other party in asserting any of its rights or remedies as to any default shall not operate as a waiver of
any default or of such rights or remedies or deprive such party of its right to institute and maintain
any actions or proceedings which it may deem necessary to protect, assert or enforce any such rights
or remedies.
