ACTION ITEMS
3.A. COUNCIL RESOLUTION 18930 APPROVING THE LICENSE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY
OF CHULA VISTA AND SAN DIEGO GAS AND ELECTRIC FOR USE OF SUBSTATION PROPERTY AS
A PARKING LOT FOR THE OTAY RECREATION CENTER LOCATED AT ALBANY AND MAIN STREETS--
The proposed 15,000 sq. ft. Otay Recreation Center will include a 9,300 sq. ft.
gymnasium with the remaining 5,700 sq. ft. to consist of a multi-purpose
recreation room, off ices, restrooms, and storage/maintenance space. The site
will include 85 total parking spaces, with 49 spaces located on the SDG&E parcel.
Staff recommends approval of the resolutions. (Community Development Director;
Director of Parks, Recreation and Open Space)
Jess Valenzuela, Director of Parks, Recreation and Open Space, stated we are
seeking Council support for the license agreement for the parking lot that was
constructed by SDG&E, the use agreement, and looking for approval of the design
plans for the Otay Community Center and Gymnasium. He presented some slides on
the progress of the project.
Mayor/Chair Horton stated that the cost has escalated tremendously over a very
short period of time. You are projecting an estimate of project costs of about
$3.7 million. It started out to be a project of about $1.2 million.
Mr. Valenzuela stated that it was about $1.2 million when we first thought the
project would be located on School District property. At that time, the District
had indicated to us that the land could be donated to the City. However, they
changed their minds and decided to have us secure a joint use agreement and lease
from the District, and we would have to go through the Division of the State
Architect for review which escalated the cost of that project from the $1.2 to
about $1.6. Then the District was interested in moving the actual location of
the gymnasium further to the east of the campus adjacent to the chain link fence
which called for even more utility runs which was costing the project even more
both in terms of expense and the time in processing. We did some costing between
the School District site and the possibility of purchasing the Main Street site.
We saw the Main Street site as something that the City would have control of.
rt may be a little mOre expensive, but not so expensive that it would be
unrealistic. There wasn't much difference between constructing the facillty on
the District site or constructing the facility on a City purchased slte where we
had full control. So, there were a whole variety of issues that were not
anticipated and came up after our first discussions with School District

officials. In addition to that, there are street improvements that are being
contemplated, curbs, gutters, sidewalks, street light, etc. that are not
necessarily a part of the building but are support facilities that is
incorporated into the $3.7 million.
Member Padilla stated he was approached by some staff members who were concerned
during the design process about the proximity between the office and the utility
area. The concern is that people will abuse the facility if they are out of
sight of the staff. He is hoping, as a community, we take pride and
responsibility in the facilities and that we take good care of them. He also
hoped that adequate resources are provided to make sure that appropriate
supervision occurs. He felt that keeping the new facilities in appropriate
condition is a function of management and not a function of the design of the
building. The architecture of the building is going to be magnificent, but if
there are concerns of this nature, then we need to make sure that once we get
rolling and we celebrate the day it is used that it is well cared for as well.
B. COUNCIL RESOLUTION 18931 AND AGENCY RESOLUTION 1574 APPROVING PROJECT AND
DESIGN PLANS FOR DEVELOPMENT OF THE OTAY RECREATION CENTER AT 3554 MAIN STREET
LOCATED WITHIN THE SOUTHWEST REDEVELOPMENT AREA
RESOLUTIONS 18930, 18931, AND 1574 OFFERED BY MAYOR/CHAIR HORTON, headings read,
texts waived.
Member Rindone asked what was staff's best estimate for the time line for when
the contract will be let for the construction and approximately how long of a
time period do we need for the construction.
Mr. Valenzuela responded that staff was planning on having the bid awarded on
June 2nd. It will take approximately six months to complete the construction of
and opening of the building.
VOTE: Resolutions approved unanimously 5-0.
4. COUNCIL RESOLUTION 18932 AND AGENCY RESOLUTION 1575 ADOPTING DOWNTOWN
VISION STATEMENT AND FOUR FOCUS PROJECTS AS HIGH PRIORITY FOR TOWN CENTRE I AS
PROPOSED BY THE DOWNTOWN BUSINESS ASSOCIATION, APPROVING THE CONCEPT OF RETAINING
BUSINESS RECRUITMENT CONSULTANT AND DIRECTING STAFF TO SUBMIT FUNDING REQUEST FOR
CONSIDERATION IN THE FY 98/99 REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY BUDGET, AND DIRECTING STAFF
TO PREPARE APPROPRIATE REQUESTS FOR PROPOSALS - The Downtown "Vision" statement
and ways to implement the vision were formulated through two Roundtable groups
consisting of Downtown Business Association (DBA) members, elected public
officials, community and business leaders, a "Community Tune" consu ltant, and
Chula Vista city staff. The DBA Board of Directors voted to submit the "VLsion"
statement and recommendations for implementation of the "Vis.on" for
Agency/Council consideration. Staff recommends approval of the resolutions.
(Community Development Director)
5. COUNCIL RESOLUTION 18933 AND AGENCY RESOLUTION 1576 APPROVING THE CHULA
VISTA DOWNTOWN BUSINESS ASSOCIATION'S (CVDBA) 1998 BUDGET AND DIRECTING THAT THE
DBA'S REQUEST FOR $20,000 FROM THE PARKING METER FUND AND CITY SERVICES FOR 1998-
99 PROMOTIONAL ACTIVITIES BE SUBMITTED FOR CONSIDERATION IN THE FY 98-99 CITY AND
AGENCY BUDGETS AND $25,000 FROM TOWN CENTRE I REDEVELOPMENT FUND FOR SUBSIDY TO
TOWN MANAGER POSITION AND MENTOR BE SUBMITTED FOR CONSIDERATION IN THE FY 98-99
AGENCY BUDGET - In accordance with the Chula Vista Municipal Code, the CVDBA lS
required to submit an annual budget in March for the City Council's approval.
The DBA's budget is funded by a special assessment applied to each business
located within the District boundary and any income the District earns from
promotional activities and other contributing SOurces. Staff recommends approval
of the resolution. (Director of Community Development)
Items 4 and 5 were handled together. Pam Buchan, Principal Community Development
Specialist, stated that approximately a year ago the City Council held a workshop
cJ-~
-.. .. .

for the Downtown area. Shortly after that, the Downtown Business Association co-
sponsored with Pacific Bell Yellow Pages a Community Tune program for the
Downtown to establish a vision. It was also in cooperation with the Chamber and
the Southwestern College Small Business Center, and International Trade Center.
Through that process, two round table meetings took place. Those round tables
involved some of our counc ilmembers and appointed officials, community and
business leaders, and DBA leaders. The roundtables resulted in a vision for the
Downtown which is to establish a Downtown as the business, social, and
entertainment center point for the community. In addition to that, when the DBA
Board met and put all the information from the roundtables and the consultant,
they also came up with an implementation plan which is before the Counccl(Agency
for consideration. The recommendation also includes asking the Council to direct
staff to forward the cost impacts to the 1998/99 budget. In addition to that,
we have the DBA proposed budget. The legislation which created the Buscness
Improvement District requires that their budget be approved every March.
Mayor/Chair Horton offered Resolutions 18932, 18933, 1575, and 1576 headings
read, texts waived.
Member Moot stated that he did not see much of a discussion about what needed to
be done to create a critical mass of people in this area to support what the
vision is, i. e. restaurants, downtown entertainment, etc. When we had our
workshop, some ideas were kicked around which are not popular with some of the
people who own businesses downtown. If you had more commercial/business tenants
where you built more low-rise commercial businesses to house medical or other
office, at least you create a critical mass to support restaurants for buscness
luncheons that may spill over into a critical mass for nightt ime restaurant
businesses. He thought that one of the glaring discrepancies of what he saw in
the vision statement was a failure to address from a practical perspective what
we could do as a Council to try to create more of a critical mass that would
support what we want to see there.
Ms. Buchan stated that some of the discussion which was omitted in the report was
regarding the business recru i tment program. There are two aspects of that
recruitment program that will precede the actual recruitment: a void analysis and
a marketing trend analysis which should take approximately two to three months.
That is exactly what we will be looking at. What can the market handle right now
and what types of businesses are we missing. With our vision, how do we bucld
that up.
Mayor/Chair Horton stated the report mentioned the Leader Building and that there
are some discussions currently going on with the owner, and they are fLnally
cooperating.
Chris Salomone, Community Development Director, stated that Ms. Buchan prepared
a package of material for a potential development of that site. There are some
things going on. There is more cause for optimism now than there has been in the
past.
Mayor/Chair Horton stated that site and the gas station site are critLcal to
provide the window to this area. There are a lot of development opportunities
with the two sites. She hoped the discussions do move forward in a manner that
will help the City in the future, we need to take control of the situation and
not let this linger for too much longer. There was reference to creating an
increase in the fees in the BID, but there was no program as to when and what
will be done to bring this about in the future.
Ms. Buchan responded that we met with our attorneys and the fcnance department,
and we are researching ways of doing that; what will work for the merchants and
for the improvement district as a whole. We are looking at other alternatives
for revenue generation. One of the things in the budget is the DBA has put in
for a grant from the County Community Enhancement Grant.

REVIEWED BY: Executive Director JGt bð.-? (4/liths Vote: Yes- No_XJ
BACKGROUND:
Approximately one year ago, the Redevelopment Agency ("Agency") requested that staff proceed with
amendments to the Bayfront and Town Centre I Redevelopment Plans to address time limitations that
currently impede the Agency from removing blight and completing its redevelopment program in both Project
Areas. In addition, the Agency is seeking to amend the Bayfront Redevelopment Plan to add approximately
4-(
-.-
Page 2, Item A
Meeting Date 04/21/98
398 acres of Port District tidelands to the Project Area and to modify the existing Bayfront Redevelopment
Plan's land use plan to correlate with the Chula Vista Certified local Coastal Program and the City's General
Plan.
The plan amendment process will involve a series of steps that will lead to formal consideration of the
proposed amendments by the Council and Agency at a joint public hearing in June of this year. Tonight,
the Agency and City Council will consider four resolutions, two pertaining to the Bayfront Amendment and
two regarding the Town Centre I Amendment that will initiate the series of required actions.
RECOMMENDATION:
That the Redevelopment Agency adopt Resolution A and C:
1. Reaffirming the existing Rules for Owner Participation and Method of Relocation for Town Centre I and
Bayfront Project Areas,
2. Accepting and authorizing circulation of the Preliminary Report and Draft Redevelopment Plan
Amendments No.5 for Town Centre I and Bayfront Project Areas,
3. Finding that the use of taxes allocated from the Town Centre I and Bayfront Project Areas for the
purpose of improving and increasing the community's supply of low and moderate income housing outside
the Project Areas will be of benefit to the Projects, and
4. Calling for a joint public hearing on the proposed Amendments to the Town Centre I and Bayfront
Redevelopment Plans on June 9, 1998.
That the City Council adopt Resolutions Band 0:
1. Finding that the use of taxes allocated from the Town Centre I and Bayfront Project Areas for the
purpose of improving and increasing the community's supply of low and moderate income housing outside
the Project Areas will be of benefit to the Projects, and
2. Calling for a joint public hearing on the proposed Town Centre I and Bayfront Amendments to the
Redevelopment Plan on June 9, 1998.
DISCUSSION:
Before the Redevelopment Agency may adopt an amendment to a Redevelopment Plan, a series of actions
are required. The following is a description of actions and documents that the Council and Agency will
consider this evening to proceed with the amendment to the Town Centre I and Bayfront Redevelopment
Plans. (Schedule of major actions listed on Attachment I to this staff report)
4-d.-
--. ...
Page 3, Item d
Meeting Date 04/21198
Owner ParticiDation Rules
The California Community Redevelopment law ("law") requires that the Redevelopment Agency adopt rules
to guide owner participation opportunities and to extend reasonable preferences to persons engaged in
business or residing in the Project Areas. When the Agency undertakes redevelopment of a specific property
in the Project Areas or a property owner, business operator, or business tenant wishes to participate in the
redevelopment process, the rules outline the procedures to be followed to ensure that both the rights of the
participant in the redevelopment process are preserved and the goals stated in the Redevelopment Plans are
achieved. When the Town Centre I and Bayfront Projects were originally adopted, the Agency adopted such
rules for each Project Area.
As part of the proposed Redevelopment Plan amendments, legal counsel has advised the Agency to reaffirm
the rules for the Project Areas which are attached as Exhibit A to the Redevelopment Agency resolutions.
Method of Relocation
For both the Town Centre I and Bayfront Project Areas, the Agency maintains a Method of Relocation to
govern the Agency's relocation activities that may occur during Project implementation. As a public agency
in the State of California, the Agency is required to adhere to the State Relocation law (Government Code
Sections 7260 through 7277) and follow the California Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition
Guidelines ("State Guidelines") as established in the California Code Regulation, Title 25, Chapter 6. The
enclosed Method of Relocation incorporates the State Guidelines and State Relocation law.
While the Agency does not anticipate that the implementation of the Redevelopment Plans will dislocate
businesses, residences, or local community institutions, it may be necessary for the Agency to undertake
such relocation activities at some time during the life of the Project. To the extent that relocation activities
are undertaken, the Agency will handle those cases which result from project activities on an individual
basis.
Exhibit B to the Redevelopment Agency resolutions reaffirms the effect and use of the State guidelines as
the Method of Relocation for Town Centre I and Bayfront Project Areas.
Draft RedeveloDment Plan/Amendment
Upon the adoption of the amendments later this year, the amended Redevelopment Plans will guide all future
redevelopment projects, programs, and activities to eliminate blight in the Project Areas.
Baytront Redevelopment Project Amendment No.5
The Bayfront amendment will result in an amended and restated Redevelopment Plan, incorporating the
following changes:
4-3
_.. ... _n
Page 4, Item A.
Meeting Date 04/21198
1. Add approximately 39B acres of tidelands property within the jurisdiction of the San Diego Unified Port
District to the existing Bayfront Redevelopment Project Area which will result in an overall 1,035-acre
Bayfront Redevelopment Project Area.
2. Extend, to July 2010, the time frame within which the Agency may commence eminent domain
proceedings to acquire property within the existing Bayfront Project Area.
3. Extend, to January 1, 2004, the time frame within which the Agency may incur indebtedness in the
existing Bayfront Project Area.
4. Extend, to July 16, 2014, the effectiveness of the existing Redevelopment Plan in the existing Bayfront
Project Area to allow the Agency to continue redevelopment activities.
5. Extend, to July 16, 2024, the time frame within which the Agency may collect tax increment in the
existing Bayfront Project Area.
6. Replace the existing Bayfront Redevelopment Plan's Statement of Basic Objectives, General Land Use
Plan and Controls, to more comprehensively correlate to the Agency's current goals, and to provide that
land uses in the Project Area are consistent with the City's General Plan and Title 19 of the Chula Vista
Municipal Code, the Local Coastal Program, and all other state and local building codes, guidelines, or
specific plans, as they now exist or are hereafter amended.
7. Restate the remaining provisions of the Existing Bayfront Redevelopment Plan.
Town Centre I Redevelopment Project Amendment No.5
The Town Centre I amendment consists of the following series of text changes to the existing
Redevelopment Plan document, that would supersede the applicable sections of the existing Redevelopment
Plan:
1. Extend, to July 2010, the time frame within which the Agency may commence eminent domain
proceedings to acquire property in the Town Centre I Redevelopment Project Area.
2. Extend, to January 1, 2004, the time frame within which the Agency may incur indebtedness on behalf
of the Towne Centre I Redevelopment Project.
3. Extend, to July 6, 2016, the effectiveness of the existing Town Centre I Redevelopment Plan.
4. Extend, to July 6, 2026, the time period within which the Agency may collect tax increment revenue
on behalf of the Town Centre I Redevelopment Project.
4-4
Page 5, Item 4
Meeting Date 04/21198
Pursuant to Section 33453, the draft amended Bayfront Redevelopment Plan and the draft Town Centre
I Amendment will be transmitted to the Planning Commission for its report and recommendation to the City
Council. The Town Centre I Project Area Committee will also be given an opportunity to review and
consider the proposed Town Centre I Amendment. Additionally, the draft documents will be submitted to
the affected taxing agencies as required by law.
Preliminarv Reoorts
The Preliminary Reports required by State law, include the reasons for the amendments, a description of
the physical and economic conditions in the Project Areas, a method of financing, and a description of the
proposed redevelopment projects. Despite the Agency's best efforts to date, much of the Bayfront and
Town Centre I Project Areas continue to suffer from blighting conditions that cannot be alleviated without
Agency assistance through the tools of redevelopment. The proposed amendments provide the Agency with
the legal and financial tools necessary to encourage economic development and correct infrastructure
deficiencies. The content of the Preliminary Reports are described below.
Bayfront Preliminary Report
The Bayfront Preliminary Report describes the purpose and benefits of the proposed amendment for both
the Existing Area and proposed Added Area. As proposed, the amendment will extend the time frame to
commence any eminent domain activity within the existing Bayfront Project Area which will permit the
Agency to more effectively implement redevelopment projects involving land assembly for a 12-year period
following adoption of the amendment. The amendment extends time limits to incur indebtedness, implement
redevelopment actions, and collect tax increment revenue. The extension of these time limits will allow the
Agency to initiate redevelopment projects with new indebtedness for an additional four and one half years,
and collect tax increment revenue to repay indebtedness for an additional 15 years. Also, the amendment
will update and replace various land use controls for consistency with the City's current land use policies
(set forth in the local Coastal Program, Title 19, and General Plan) as they exist today or are hereafter
amended.
In addition, the Preliminary Report details the blighting conditions that have inhibited development in the
Added Area. These conditions (based upon the Agency's redevelopment consultant's analysis and the legal
definition of blight in the law) include the following:
Impaired investments due to suspected hazardous contamination;
Excessive vacant lots;
land use incompatibilities;
Inadequate circulation;
Abnormally low lease rates; and
Factors hindering the economically viable use of the Added Area properties.
4-~
-- .-
Page 6. Item 4-
Meeting Date 04/21198
As described in the Preliminary Report, the Agency proposes to employ redevelopment tools where necessary
to alleviate these blighting conditions. The proposed amended and restated Redevelopment Plan would allow
the Agency to undertake hazardous contamination remediation, infrastructure improvements, and other
economic development activities, and permit the Agency to collect tax increment revenue to finance such
efforts in both the existing Bayfront Project Area and the Added Area.
Town Centre I Preliminary Report
As described in the Preliminary Report, the Town Centre I amendment will extend various time limitations
involving eminent domain, incurring debt, effectiveness of the Redevelopment Plan, and collecting tax
increment revenue within the Town Centre I Project Area. Without these amendments, the Agency would
be effectively prohibited from utilizing many of the legally provided tools to complete redevelopment of the
T own Centre I Redevelopment Project Area. The amendment will establish a new 12.year period to
commence eminent domain activities, thereby giving the Agency the ability to undertake critical land
assembly projects. The amendment extends (by two and a half years) to the year 2004 the time frame to
incur new debt to finance future redevelopment projects, and adds 15 years to the overall effectiveness and
time frame to collect tax increment revenue under the Redevelopment Plan to 2026.
If the Agency adopts the attached resolutions, the Preliminary Reports will be transmitted to the affected
taxing agencies, pursuant to Section 33344.5 of the law.
Use of Housina Funds Outside the Proiect Areas
Section 33334.2(g) of the law provides that the Agency may use its 20% low to Moderate Income Housing
Set-Aside Deposits ("Housing Funds") outside the Project Areas if the Agency and City Council find that the
use of such Housing Funds will be of benefit to the Projects. This is important because it allows the
Agency the greatest flexibility in implementing affordable housing programs throughout the City, and not just
within a project area. Currently, the Agency is permitted to use Housing set-aside funds from both Project
Areas outside the Project Areas. The enclosed Agency and City Council resolutions will reaffirm the
necessary findings for the purpose of both the Bayfront and Town Centre I amendments.
Joint Public Hearina
Pursuant to Section 33355 of the law, a joint Agency/City Council public hearing must be convened with
respect to the proposed redevelopment plan amendments. As set forth in the law, the Agency and City
Council are required to adopt the attached resolutions setting the date and time of the joint public hearing
to consider the amendments and the pertinent documents and evidence.
The law requires that the Agency transmit a copy of the notice of the joint public hearing to all property
owners, residential tenants, and business owners via first-class mail no later than 30 days prior to the public
4-fo

hearing. In addition, the joint public hearing notice needs to be published for four successive weeks in a
newspaper of general circulation.
The attached resolutions provide the Agency's and City Council's consent to the joint public hearing. The
joint public hearing is scheduled for the Agency/City Council regular meeting on Tuesday, June 9, 1998, at
7:00 p.m. (or as soon as possible thereafter) in the City Council Chambers. Further, the resolution authorizes
staff to proceed with the necessary activities to prepare, publish, and mail the joint public hearing notice.
Although no other community meetings are required by law, Agency staff will be conducting a public
workshop on May 7, 1998 on the amendments prior to the joint public hearing. The public workshop will
provide an informal forum to discuss the purposes, goals, and objectives of the proposed amendments with
the community.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Also, if the amendments are adopted by the City Council in June, the Agency could receive $142.4 million
more tax increment revenue from the Bayfront and Town Centre I Project Areas combined. This is because
extension of the time frame to collect tax increment revenue for both the Bayfront and Town Centre I
Projects will provide the Agency 15 more years to receive revenue from both Project Areas. Also, the
amendment will entitle the Agency to begin collecting tax increment from the proposed Added Area to the
Bayfront Project Area.
As required by law, approximately $26.9 million (or 19%) of the additional tax increment revenue generated
from these three sources (Bayfront Existing Area, Bayfront Added Area, and Town Centre I) will be shared
with the affected taxing agencies. The majority of this amount is paid from the Bayfront Added Area, since
Bayfront Existing and Town Centre I Areas would only share a portion of the incremental growth in annual
taxes collected after fiscal years 1999-2000 and 2001-02, respectively. (Since the existing Bayfront and
Town Centre I projects are being extended, in accordance with AB 1290, tax increment revenue must be
shared with other taxing agencies throughout the extended lifetime of the project)
About $115.5 million (or 81% of the additional projected taxes the Agency will be able to collect due to
the amendments) will be retained for Agency housing and non-housing projects.
The following tables summarize the effects of the amendments on the Agency's projected tax increment
revenues.

RULES GOVERNING PARTICIPATION AND PREFERENCES
BY PROPERTY OWNERS AND BUSINESS OCCUPANTS
FOR
TOWN CENTRE I REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT AMENDMENT NO.5
ORIGINAL
-..
REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY
OF THE
CITY OF CHULA VISTA
RULES GOVERNING PARTICIPATION AND PREFERENCES
BY OWNERS AND TENANTS
IN THE
BAYFRONT AND TOWN CENTRE I REDEVELOPMENT PROJECTS
Section I. GENERAL
These rules are promulgated to implement the provisions of the Redevelopment Plan for
the Bayfront and Town Centre I Redevelopment Projects regarding participation and the
exercise of preferences by owners, operators of businesses, and tenants in the Project.
These rules set forth the procedures governing such preferences and participation.
The Redevelopment Agency of the City of Chula Vista ("Agency") desires participation in
development of the project area by as many owners and tenants as possible. In view of
the pattern of land assembly and integrated development envisioned by the Redevelopment
Plan, persons and firms doing business in the Project Area will be encouraged to take
advantage of their participation and preference opportunities. Specific attention will be
focused upon the participation of owners of buildings that have historical and architectural
merit and which are structurally sound and can be renovated feasibly in accordance with
the Plan.
Participation opportunities are necessarily subject to and limited by factors such as the
following:
1. The elimination and/or modification of some land uses.
2. The realignment and abandonment of some streets.
3. The ability of participants to finance the proposed development.
-1 -
/1-/
-~
4. The reduction of the total number of individual parcels in the Project Area.
5. Change in orientation and character of the area.
6. The building has historical and/or architectural qualities that will enhance the
Redevelopment Plan.
7. Agency's determination that an alternative project proposal better
implements the provisions of the Redevelopment Plan.
Section II. PARTICIPATION BY OWNERS OF REAL PROPERTY
A. Participation in the Same Location
In appropriate circumstances where such would foster the unified and integrated
development contemplated by the Redevelopment Plan, an owner may participate in
substantially the same location by retaining all or portions of his property and purchasing
other property if needed and available for development in accordance with the
Redevelopment Plan.
Conflicting desires among participants for particular sites or land uses will be
resolved by the conformity of a participation proposal with the intent and purpose of the
Redevelopment Plan.
The final decisions concerning land acquisition by the Agency will be based upon
the conditions existing at the time the Agency purchases property or enters into
participation agreements.
B. Participation in a Different Location
In some instances, the Agency will buy the land and improvements at fair market
value, and offer parcels of cleared land for purchase by owner-participants prior to offering
for sale to the general public. Property sold to owner-participants will be made available at
fair value for the uses designated in the Redevelopment Plan.
- 2-
,A-~
--
Section III. PARTICIPATION BY TENANTS
Pursuant to these rules, non-property owners who are tenants engaged in business or
residing in the Project Area will be given opportunities to remain or to obtain reasonable
preferences to reenter within the redevelopment area if they otherwise meet the
requirements prescribed by the Plan.
A. Tenant Participation as Owners
Tenants will be given reasonable preference to purchase and develop real property
in the Project Area. Property sold to such tenants will be made available at fair value for
the uses designated in the Plan,
b. Preferences for Business Tenants as Tenants
Business tenants who desire to reenter the Redevelopment Project Area as tenants
will receive reasonable preferences to locate in the Project Area in accordance with the
prescribed uses of the Plan.
Section IV. PROCEDURE FOR BECOMING A PARTICIPANT
A. Procedure for Participation as Business Owner, Residential Owner or Business
Tenant
Every person interested in becoming a participant as a business owner or tenant
must submit to the Agency a statement indicating such interest. A form for this purpose
may be obtained from the Agency on request.
The Agency may disregard Statements of Interest submitted after the end of the
thirty (30) day period immediately following the date of the publication of the ordinance of
the City Council adopting the Redevelopment Plan.
The Agency will notify each person who submits a Statement of Interest of the
time within which he must submit his proposal for participation,
- 3-
/1-.3
Opportunity will be given to discuss proposals with the Agency staff and to make
necessary adjustments. The Agency will make every effort to meet the desires of every
person desiring to participate in the Project.
B. Participation Aqreement
Each owner or tenant who has submitted an acceptable proposal for owner or
tenant participation will be required to enter into a participation agreement with the
Agency. Each agreement will contain provisions necessary to insure that the participation
proposal will be carried out, and that the subject property will be developed or used in
accordance with the conditions, restrictions, rules and regulations of the Redevelopment
Plan and the agreement.
The agreement will specifically mention the following;
1. Parking facilities per the requirements of the City of Chula Vista and/or
provisions for Public Transit (if any) shall be applicable to the
owner/participant in the same manner and degree as they affect a new
purchaser/developer in the project
2. The owner/participant will be assessed by a Special Assessment District (if
any) in the same proportion or ratio as that of a new developer for the
purpose of maintaining common areas, parking areas, and other public
project facilities.
Each agreement will furthermore require the participant to join in the recordation of
such documents as the Agency will require in order to insure such development. The
agreement will also provide that a successor in interest of the original participant may
become B participant with the approval of the Agency.
Participation agreements will be effective only if approved by the members of the
Agency.

INTRODUCTION
This is the Fifth Amendment to Redevelopment Plan for the Town Centre I Redevelopment
Project ("Amendment 5"), located in the City of Chula Vista, County of San Diego, State of
California.
This Amendment 5 has been prepared by the Chula Vista Redevelopment Agency ("Agency")
pursuant to the California Community Redevelopment Law (Health and Safety Code Section
33000, ~ ~.) ("Redevelopment Law"), the California Constitution and all applicable laws and
ordinances. Amendment 5 is based upon the Preliminary Plan for Amendment No.5 to the Town
Centre I Redevelopment Plan formulated and adopted by the Chula Vista Planning Commission
and the Agency on July 23,1997 and October 7, 1997, respectively.
Amendment 5 amends the existing Redevelopment Plan for the Town Centre I Redevelopment
Project ("Project"), originally adopted on July 6, 1976, and most recently, amended on
November 8, 1994 ("Existing Plan"). Amendment 5 will amend the Existing Plan as follows;
1. Extend, to July 2010, the time frame within which the Agency may Commence eminent
domain proceedings to acquire property in the Town Centre I Redevelopment Project
Area ("Project Area"),
2. Extend, to January 1, 2004, the time frame within which the Agency may incur
indebtedness on behalf of the Project,
3. Extend, to July 6, 2016, the effectiveness of the Existing Plan,
4. Extend, to July 6, 2026, the time period within which the Agency may collect tax
increment revenue on behalf of the Project,
The Existing Plan was originally adopted by the City Council by Ordinance No. 1691 on July 6,
1976. Since this action, the Existing Plan has been amended on four separate occasions. On July
17, 1979, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 1872 that merged the financial provisions of
the Existing Plan with the Bayfront Redevelopment Plan. On April 22, 1986, the City Council
adopted Ordinance No. 2146 that amended the Existing Plan for a second time by enacting new
time limits to enact eminent domain and incur debt, while establishing a cumulative tax
increment limit. Amendment No.3 was adopted by the City Council on January 4, 1994 by
Ordinance No. 2585, when the City Council amended the tax increment and bonded
indebtedness limits for the Project. The fourth amendment to the Existing Plan occurred on
November 8, 1994, when the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 2609 that established a time
limit on the collection of tax increment.

INTRODUCTION
Established by the City Council on October 24, 1972, the Chula Vista Redevelopment Agency
("Agency") is responsible for oversight of the five redevelopment projects in the City of Chula
Vista ("City"). One of these projects is the Town Centre I Project ("Project"), which was
initiated on July 6, 1976, by Ordinance No. 1691 that adopted the original Redevelopment Plan
for the Town Centre I Redevelopment Project ("Original Plan") and established the Town Centre
I Redevelopment Project Area ("Project Area"). Since its inception, the Original Plan has been
amended on four separate occasions, most recently in November 1994. The Original Plan, as
amended ("Existing Plan"), has guided the Agency's redevelopment program in the Project Area
to date.
Since 1976, the Agency has targeted its redevelopment efforts to mitigate specific physical and
economic blighting conditions in the Project Area. Despite the success of these efforts, full
redevelopment of the Project Area is not yet complete. Unfortunately, continued redevelopment
of the Project Area is inhibited by limitations in the Existing Plan. To remedy the Existing
Plan's constraining provisions, the Agency seeks to undertake a series of technical amendments
as a means to complete its redevelopment program in the Project Area.
On October 7, 1997, the Agency accepted and approved the Preliminary Plan for Amendment
No.5 to the Town Centre I RedeveloDment Plan. This action initiated proceedings to amend the
Existing Plan ("Amendment") as follows:
1. Extend, to July 2010, the time fÌ'ame within which the Agency may commence
eminent domain proceedings to acquire property in the Town Centre I Redevelopment
Project Area ("Project Area"),
2. Extend, to January I, 2004, the time frame within which the Agency may incur
indebtedness on behalf of the Project,
3. Extend, to July 6, 2016, the effectiveness of the Existing Plan, and

/I-:S
-. ... -
4. Extend, to July 6, 2026, the time period within which the Agency may collect tax
increment revenue on behalf of the Project.
Upon adoption of the Amendment, the Amended Redevelopment Plan for the Project ("Plan")
will guide all future redevelopment activities, projects, and programs in the Project Area.
However, the Amendment will not affect the Agency's outstanding obligations or indebtedness
nor will it add territory to, or remove territory from, the Project Area.
Authorization for this Amendment
The California Community Redevelopment Law, Health and Safety Code Sections 33000 et.
~, ("Law") provides redevelopment agencies with the authority to undertake revitalization
efforts in blighted areas in the community. As defined by the Law, redevelopment includes the
rehabilitation, reconstruction, and improvement of existing structures; the provision of public
improvements; and the replanning or redesign of blighted properties within a project area. The
Law permits redevelopment agencies to amend redevelopment plans, subject to the preparation
of documents by the agency to substantiate the need for such an amendment, the convening of an
agency/city council public hearing, and the consideration and adoption of an amending ordinance
by the city council.
This is the Preliminary Report for the Amendment ("Preliminary Report"), which outlines the
reasons for the Amendment, and details the Agency's proposed redevelopment program to be
implemented through the Plan. Upon the completion of this Preliminary Report, as well as the
Draft Environmental Impact Report, Amended Relocation Plan, and Draft Amendment, the
Agency will initiate discussions with the affected taxing entities, the Project Area Committee, the
Planning Commission, and the community-at-large as to the scope and nature of the proposed
Amendment. Following these discussions, the Agency will incorporate this input into the Report
to Council and Final Environmental Impact Report. These documents will be used to
substantiate and document the Amendment, which is scheduled to be considered by the City
Council after a noticed Agency/City Council public hearing tentatively scheduled for June 1998.

The Project Area is located in the City of Chula Vista ("City"), San Diego County, California.
Situated along the San Diego Bay in southwestern San Diego County, the City is adjoined by the
City of National City to the north, the City of San Diego to the south, the San Diego Bay to the
west, and unincorporated San Diego County to the east. The City was incorporated in 1911 and
is approximately 32,066 acres in size.
The Project Area is located in the City's historic downtown along Third Avenue. The Project
Area is generally bounded by E Street to the north, I Street to the south, Del Mar A venue to the
east, and Fourth Avenue to the west. The Project Area is 138.54 acres in size, and constitutes
approximately 0.4% of the total area of the City. The primary land uses within the Project Area
are commercial, public, and residential.
Depicted on Exhibit A-I, the Project Area is 138.54 acres in size, or approximately 0.4% of the
total area of the City. The proposed Amendment would not add property to, or delete property
from, the Project Area.
Reasons for the Selection ofthe Project Area
According to the Original Plan, redevelopment of the Project Area was necessary to address the
following problems:

. The underutilization and mixed character of land uses;
. The prevalence of small lots that were inadequate for large-scale development and restrict the
expansion of existing and compatible uses;
. The design limitations in the basic layout and platting, the clutter of utility lines and signs,
and an inadequate traffic circulation system;
. The obsolescence, structural inadequacy, lack of architectural unity, and deterioration of
buildings within the area;
. The general decline and shifting nature of commercial activity within the area; and
. The inadequate governmental revenue generation (property and sales tax) and an increasing
need for public services within the area.
Agency's Accomplishments Within the Project Area
. Since the inception of the Project, over $100 million of combined private and public
development dollars have been invested within the Project Area and have contributed toward
the area's economic growth and physical improvement.
. The Agency has participated in the following major new development projects that have been
completed in the Town Centre I area over the past 15 years. (Participation includes
certificates of participation, acquisition and consolidation of properties, financial assistance,
expeditious development plan processing, etc.);
~ The Park Plaza consisting of a 59,000 square foot commercial center, 98 residential
condominiums and 94 rental apartments, a six-plex movie theater, three freestanding
restaurants, and a freestanding office building.
~ The South County Administration Center which houses Municipal and Superior courts
and associated county offices that serve the South Bay.
~ Sharp Rees-Stealy medical building.
~ The Park Square II and the Adma commercial/residential mixed-use projects.
~ Third A venue public street and sidewalk improvements including landscaping and
associated amenities.
~ Development of new and redevelopment of older public parking lots.
~ A 700-space public parking Structure in the Park Plaza.

~ The renovation of MemoriaI Park and the construction of the Norman Park Senior Center.
~ Preparation of the 1993 Downtown Market Study to analyze the economic potential of
the Project.
~ Various smaIl to medium remodeling and new construction projects completed by the
private sector throughout the Project Area.
~ Acquisition of2.4 acres of property at Third Avenue and Alvarado Street and.5 acres of
property at H Street and Third Avenue.
Due to limitations of the Existing Plan, however, the Agency will not be able to adequately
mitigate many remaining blighting conditions. These limitations jeopardize the Agency's ability
to continue redevelopment projects, programs, and activities in the Project Area. The
Amendment will enable the Agency to continue with the redevelopment program in the Project
Area by modifying the Existing Plan's limits. The next section describes the scope of, needs for,
and benefits of, the proposed Amendment.
Reasons for the Amendment
The Amendment would adjust four specific time limitations within the Existing Plan necessary
to correct blight in the Project Area. These four amendments are described below;
. Establish a new l2-vear time Deriod to commence eminent domain activities: The Existing
Plan's time limit to commence eminent domain proceedings will expire on May 22, 1998.
Since the Original Plan was adopted in 1976, the Agency has had the ability to acquire
property by eminent domain. Although it has been sparingly used, eminent domain authority
has been a necessary adjunct to land acquisition negotiations. In order for the Agency to
continue to effectively implement projects involving land assembly, an extension on the time
limit on eminent domain authority will be necessary. The Amendment would establish a new
l2-year time frame within which the Agency may employ, as a last resort, eminent domain to
acquire property to implement the Plan.

_.. . -
. Extend time frame to incur debt from Julv 2001 to January 2004: The Existing Plan prohibits
the Agency from incurring debt after July 6, 2001. After this deadline has been reached, the
Agency may only collect tax increment revenue to payoff preexisting indebtedness.
Incurring additional debt will be necessary to initiate any new redevelopment projects or
programs funded from future tax increment revenues. Under Subsection 33333.6(a) of the
Law, the Plan's time limit on incurring debt may be the later of20 years after adoption of the
Original Plan (or July 6, 1996), or January 1, 2004. The Amendment would extend the
Existing Plan's time limit on incurring debt to January 1,2004, as prescribed by Subsection
33333.6(a) of the Law.
. Extend effectiveness of Existing Plan from Julv 2001 to Julv 2016; The Existing Plan's 25-
year duration that is less than the 40-year duration permitted by Subsection 33333.6(b) of the
Law. Under the Existing Plan, with the exception of collecting tax increment and repaying
indebtedness, all redevelopment activities, including enforcement of land use controls and
completion ofprojects, must cease by July 2001. Extending the Existing Plan's effectiveness
will enable the Agency to continue an active redevelopment program for an additional 15
years, as permitted by Law.
. Extend time period to collect tax increment revenue from Julv 2011 to Julv 2026; Subsection
33333.6(c) of the Law provides that redevelopment agencies may collect tax increment
revenue for 10 years after a redevelopment plan's effectiveness has expired. In conjunction
with the proposed Amendment's extension of the effectiveness of the Existing Plan to July
2016, the Amendment would also extend the time limit on the collection of tax increment
revenue to ten years beyond the July 2016 effectiveness limit, or to July 2026.

SECTION B
A Description of the Physical and Economic Blighting
Conditions Existing in the Project Area
The blighting conditions that were present when the Original Plan was considered in 1976 are
delineated in the Original Plan. In general, the Agency concluded that the Project Area was
plagued by serious physical and economic conditions that could not be reversed without
redevelopment. These conditions included the following;
. The underutilization and mixed character of land uses;
. The prevalence of small lots that were inadequate for large-scale development and restrict the
expansion of existing and compatible uses;
. The design limitations in the basic layout and platting, the clutter of utility lines and signs,
and an inadequate traffic circulation system;
. The obsolescence, structural inadequacy, lack of architectural unity, and deterioration of
buildings within the area;
. The general decline and shifting nature of commercial activity within the area; and
. The inadequate governmental revenue generation (property and sales tax) and an increasing
need for public services within the area.
The Law requires a reevaluation of the blighting conditions only if an agency proposes to amend
a redevelopment plan by either extending the time limit to incur debt beyond January I, 2004, or
increase the tax increment limit. Because the proposed Amendment neither would extend time
limitations beyond January 1,2004, nor increase the Existing Plan's $84.0 million limitation on
the number of dollars to be allocated to the Agency on behalf of the Project, a reevaluation of
blight is not necessary or required for the proposed Amendment.

SECTION C
A Determination as to Whether the Project Area is
Predominantly Urbanized
For all redevelopment project areas established after January 1, 1984, Section 33320.1 of the
Law requires that such areas be "predominantly urbanized" meaning that not less than 80 percent
of the land in the project area:
. Has been or is developed for urban uses; or
. Is characterized by the existence of subdivided lots of irregular fonn and shape and
inadequate size for proper usefulness and development that are in multiple ownership, or
. Is an integral part of one or more areas developed for urban uses which are surrounded or
substantially surrounded by parcels which have been or are developed for urban uses.
Since the Project Area was established in 1976 (before the urbanization statute took effect), the
Project Area is not subjected to this urbanization test.

SECTION D
A Preliminary Assessment of the Proposed Method of
Financing, Including the Economic Feasibility and the
Reasons for the Division of Tax Increment
General Financing Methods Available to the Agency
Redevelopment of the Project Area is proposed to be financed with a combination of a variety of
resources, including:
. Financial assistance from the City, County, State of California and/or Federal
Government;
8 Tax increment revenue;
. Bonded debt;
8 Proceeds from lease or sale of Agency-owned property;
. Loans from private financial institutions; and
8 Any other legally available source.
The more typical sources of redevelopment financing that may be employed with the Project are
described below.
Financial Assistance from the City. County. State. and/or the Federal Government
Historically, the Agency has received loans and advances from the City for planning,
construction, and operating capital for administration of the Project until such time that sufficient
tax increment revenue is raised to repay loans and provide other means of operating capital. The
City has also deferred payments on Agency loans for land purchases, to benefit the Agency's
cash flow. Typically, such monies are used to meet short-term cash flow needs as the City's
Rosenow Spevacek Group, Inc. Chula Vista Redevelopment Agency
April, 1998 D-I Town Centre I Amendment No.5 - Preliminary RepOl1
/1-69
-.. ... - "-"-
General Fund cannot carry extensive levels of Agency debt at the risk of threatening the City's
own cash balances.
As available, other funds such as state gas tax funds and federal Community Development Block
Grants were, and will continue to be used, as appropriate, to pay the costs of Project
implementation. The Agency and City will also continue to work together to pursue other
available grants and loans. The City or other public agencies may also issue bonds on behalf of
the Agency and provide in-kind assistance.
Proœrtv Tax Increment
The Agency will continue to use property tax increment as provided for in Section 33670 of the
Law, and is authorized in the Plan to employ tax increment fmancing to underwrite Project costs.
Tax increment revenue may only be used to pay indebtedness incurred by the Agency;
indebtedness includes principal and interest on loans, monies advanced, or debts (whether
funded, refunded, assumed, or otherwise) incurred by the Agency to finance or refinance, in
whole or in part, redevelopment activities.
As a result of the adoption of Amendment No. I by Ordinance No. 1872 in 1979, the financial
provisions of the Existing Plan were merged with the Bayfront Redevelopment Plan, pennitting
the Agency to employ resources from both project areas to underwrite implementation costs in
either project area.
The Amendment proposes to extend the time period within which the Agency may collect tax
increment revenue by IS years. Under the Existing Plan, the Agency is prohibited from
receiving tax increment revenue after July 6, 20 11, except for the purposes of financing housing
production obligations required by Section 33413 of the Law and indebtedness incurred prior to
January I, 1994. The Amendment would extend this time limit to July 6, 2026.

The Amendment would not amend the Existing Plan's $84.0 million cumulative tax increment
cap. According to the City Finance Department, a total of $56.6 mi 1 .of Project tax increment
has been collected under the existing $84.0 million cap as of June 30,1997.
Project tax increment revenues are distributed to an array of obligations. As required by Section
33334.6 of the Law, twenty percent (20%) of Project tax increment revenue is deposited into the
Housing Fund for the purposes of increasing, improving, and preserving the community's supply
of low and moderate income housing.
The remaining 80% of the tax increment revenue will be used to pay for taxing entity
obligations, debt service costs, and other implementation activities. Remaining nonhousing
revenues will finance some of the proposed infrastructure capital facility and economic
development programs within the Project Area.
Bonded Debt
Under the Plan, the Agency would have a capacity to issue bonds and/or notes for any of its
corporate purposes, payable in whole or in part from tax increment revenue.
Historically, bonded debt has been an integral component of the Agency's financing program to
eliminate blight in the Project Area. The Agency has three outstanding bond issues which are
funded in part by Project tax increment revenues; these bonds, which are obligations of both the
Project and the Bayuont Redevelopment Project, are enumerated below:
1) 1994 Senior Tax Allocation Refunding Bonds, Series A
2) 1994 Subordinate Tax Allocation Refunding Bonds, Series C
3) 1994 Subordinate Tax Allocation Refunding Bonds, Series D

/1-11
-. ".-
The Amendment will not change the Existing Plan's $20.0 million limit on the amount of bonded
debt principal which may be outstanding at anyone time. This $20.0 million will remain the
same in the proposed Plan.
Lease or Sale of Ae:encv-Owned ProDertv
The Agency may sell, lease, or otherwise encumber its property holdings to pay the costs of
Project implementation.
ParticiDation in Development
If the Agency enters into agreements with property owners, tenants, and/or other developers
which provide for revenues to be paid or repaid to the Agency, such revenues may be used to pay
Project implementation costs.
Other Available Sources
Any other loans, grants, or financial assistance from the federal government, or any other public
or private source will be utilized, as available and appropriate. The Agency will also consider
use of the powers provided by Chapter 8 (Redevelopment Construction Loans) of the Law to
provide construction funds for appropriate projects. Where feasible and appropriate, the Agency
may use assessment district and/or Mello-Roos bond financing to pay for the costs of public
infrastructure, facilities, and operations.
Projected Tax Increment Revenues
Project implementation, and specifically new development throughout the Project Area, will
generate tax increment revenue. Tax increment revenue is generated by increases in the assessed
value exceeding the 1975-76 base year assessed value of the Project Area. (The Amendment
will not affect the base year value of the Project Area.)

Table. D-l presents the projected tax increment revenues for the Project. Actual 1997-98
assessed values have been incorporated into the projections. Future secured assessed values in
the Project Area are assumed to increase by 5% annually, while unsecured and nonunitary utility
values are assumed to grow by 2% annually.
Under the Existing Plan, the Agency would be generally prohibited from collecting tax
increment revenue after July 6, 2011.1 Over the period between 1998-99 and 2010-11, RSG
estimates that approximately $18.6 million in tax increment revenue could be generated. This
revenue would consist of $3.7 million in Housing Fund revenues and $14.9 million of
Nonhousing Fund revenues.
The Amendment, among other things, extends (by 15 years) the time frame that the Agency may
collect tax increment revenue to July 6, 2026. As a result, the Agency stands to collect more tax
increment revenue under the proposed Plan as compared to the Existing Plan.
If the Amendment is adopted, the Plan enables the Agency to receive tax increment revenue until
fiscal year 2025-26. Between 1998-99 and 2025-26, RSG's tax increment revenue forecast
estimates that approximately $50.6 million of gross tax increment revenue could be generated by
the Project. Of this amount, $10.1 million would be deposited to the Agency's Housing Fund,
and $40.5 million would be available to the Nonhousing Fund.
Because the Amendment extends the time frame to incur debt and duration of the Existing Plan's
effectiveness, the Agency would be required to share a portion (projected to be approximately
$3,7 million) of its Nonhousing Fund revenue with the affected taxing agencies pursuant to
Sections 33607.5 and 33607.7 of the Law ("Statutory Payments"). These Statutory Payments
would commence in the fiscal year after the first of these limits would have been reached, or
starting in the 2002-03 fiscal year.
, Pursuant to Sectioo 33333.6(g) and (h), this time limit does not apply to the allocatioo of taxes to elimioate affordable housing deficits created
uoder Sectioo 33320,5(e) Section 33334.6(g), or Sectioo 33487(d) in accordance with a plan to eliminate housiog productioo deficits or

According to Section 33607.5 of the Law, beginning in fiscal year 2002-03, the Statutory
Payments are equal to 25% of the Project's annual nonhousing tax increment revenue in excess
of 2001-02. These Statutory Payments are subject to two subsequent increases. The first
increase in Statutory Payments would take effect in fiscal year 2012-13. When the Agency
would be required to pay 21% of the incremental increase in nonhousing tax increment revenues
exceeding amounts in 2011-12. The Law further provides for a second increase in the Statutory
Payments that would commence in fiscal year 2032-33. However, because this increase would
occur after the Plan's July 2026 time limit on the collection of tax increment revenue, no
additional Statutory Payments in this instance would be required.
The actual amount of the Statutory Payments will vary based on the amount of tax increment
revenues collected by the Agency each year. A forecast of Statutory Payments has been included
on Table D-I in this Section. Should actual tax increment revenues exceed or fall below these
projections, actual Statutory Payments would be higher or lower.
The following Table D-2 is a list of affected taxing agencies - each !>eing entitled to their
respective share of the Statutory Payment. All agencies receive their share of the Statutory
Payments, except for the City ofChula Vista, which, by Section 33607.5, is only entitled to their
share of the first 25% of the Statutory Payments.

Economic Feasibility Analysis
The Amendment enhances the economic feasibility of Project implementation by pennitting the
Agency more time to incur and repay debt. Table D-3 compares the cumulative tax increment
revenue flows anticipated both with and without the Amendment. As indicated in Table D-3,
given the assumptions on growth described earlier in this section, the Amendment would provide
the Agency with the capability to collect $32.0 million (172%) more gross tax increment revenue
by extending the time limit to collect revenue by 15 years.

Cumulative Tax Increment Revenues projected on Table 0-1
Reasons for the Provisions of Tax Increment
An analysis of the City's financial statements indicates that the City cannot fund redevelopment
implementation without tax increment financing. Since 1992, the General Fund budget has
experienced a 20% overall increase, while property and sales tax revenues to support these costs
have increased by 8% over the same time period. Currently, all City General Fund resources are
pledged to operations or reserved for specific purposes, such as retirement funds, insurance
reserves, and emergency contingencies. If these funds were reallocated to redevelopment uses,
the City General Fund would be faced with a funding shortfall in its existing commitments. In
addition, the passage of Proposition 218 in November 1996 presents new impediments to
assessment district creation and revenue generation. Increasing development fees is also not a
viable option, since increasing such fees would only further handicap the City's overall
economic development efforts to attract new business to the Project Area.
Consequently, tax increment revenue will be an essential funding source for redevelopment
activities.

SECTION F
A Description of How the Proposed Projects Will
Improve and Alleviate Blighting Conditions
With the Amendment, the Agency would continue to implement a comprehensive community
development program. The authorities and provisions of the Plan have been developed to permit
the Agency to enact redevelopment projects targeting the blight that exists within the Project
Area.
Infrastructure ImDrovements. Improvements to the Landis A venue waterline would result in the
replacement of a deficient water main with a larger capacity line to accommodate both
commercial development and fire service needs. Uprades to lighting and landscaping at public
parking facilities in the Project Area will improve pubic safety increase patronage of downtown
businesses. Through the construction of these and other public improvements, the Agency will
be effectively removing many barriers to economic growth in the City and will be eliminating the
blight which exists in the Project Area due to inadequate public improvements which cannot be
remedied by private or governmental action without redevelopment.
Community DeveloDment Proiects/Programs. These projects/programs are designed to address
the blighting conditions by assisting private enterprise with rehabilitation and/or expansion
activities, or through the acquisition of needed property. For example, development of the Third
Avenue/Alvarado Street property will complete redevelopment of this location, which was
previously characterized by small, underutilized lots. Other Agency-owned lots at the northwest
corner of"H" Street and Third Avenue could also be consolidated into a larger parcel for a more
viable commercial reuse. At the same time, other property owners along Third A venue will be
encouraged to redevelop their properties to effectuate a broad redevelopment effort in the
downtown. Such programs will enable the Agency to redevelop substandard properties in a
manner consistent with the General Plan. Finally, working with the Downtown Business
Association, the Agency will seek to foster business development and retention programs to
increase commercial activity in downtown.

HousinlZ/Low and Moderate Income Assistance. The expenditure of Housing Fund revenues will
assist the City in implementing the goals and programs set forth in the Agency's Affordable
Housing Compliance Plan and the Housing Element of the City's General Plan, and will allow
the Agency to enhance housing opportunities for very low, low, and moderate income
households. Further, the proposed housing projects will eliminate blight in the community by
repairing or rehabilitating substandard or deteriorating residential structures.

REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY
OF THE
CITY OF CHULA VISTA
RULES GOVERNING PARTICIPATION AND PREFERENCES
BY OWNERS AND TENANTS
IN THE
BA YFRONT AND TOWN CENTRE I REDEVELOPMENT PROJECTS
Section I. GENERAL
These rules are promulgated to implement the provisions of the Redevelopment Plan for
the Bayfront and Town Centre I Redevelopment Projects regarding participation and the
exercise of preferences by owners, operators of businesses, and tenants in the Project.
These rules set forth the procedures governing such preferences and participation.
The Redevelopment Agency of the City of Chula Vista ("Agency") desires participation in
development of the project area by as many owners Bnd tenants as possible. In view of
the pattern of land assembly and integrated development envisioned by the Redevelopment
Plan, persons and firms doing business in the Project Area will be encouraged to take
advantage of their participation and preference opportunities. Specific attention will be
focused upon the participation of owners of buildings that have historical and architectural
merit and which are structurally sound and can be renovated feasibly in accordance with
the Plan.
Participation opportunities are necessarily subject to and limited by factors such as the
following:
1. The elimination and/or modification of some land uses.
2. The realignment and abandonment of some streets.
3, The ability of participants to finance the proposed development.
-1 -
C-I
4. The reduction of the total number of individual parcels in the Project Area.
5. Change in orientation and character of the area.
6. The building has historical and/or architectural qualities that will enhance the
Redevelopment Plan,
7. Agency's determination that an alternative project proposal better
implements the provisions of the Redevelopment Plan.
Section II. PARTICIPATION BY OWNERS OF REAL PROPERTY
A. Participation in the Same Location
In appropriate circumstances where such would foster the unified and integrated
development contemplated by the Redevelopment Plan, an owner may participate in
substantially the same location by retaining all or portions of his property and purchasing
other property if needed and available for development in accordance with the
Redevelopment Plan,
Conflicting desires among participants for particular sites or land uses will be
resolved by the conformity of a participation proposal with the intent and purpose of the
Redevelopment Plan.
The final decisions concerning land acquisition by the Agency will be based upon
the conditions existing at the time the Agency purchases property or enters into
participation agreements.
B. Participation in a Different Location
In some instances, the Agency will buy the land and improvements at fair market
value, and offer parcels of cleared land for purchase by owner-participants prior to offering
for sale to the general public. Property sold to owner-participants will be made available at
fair value for the uses designated in the Redevelopment Plan.
- 2-
C-t9--

Section III. PARTICIPATION BY TENANTS
Pursuant to these rules, non-property owners who are tenants engaged in business or
residing in the Project Area will be given opportunities to remain or to obtain reasonable
preferences to reenter within the redevelopment area if they otherwise meet the
requirements prescribed by the Plan,
A. Tenant Participation as Owners
Tenants will be given reasonable preference to purchase and develop real property
in the Project Area. Property sold to such tenants will be made available at fair value for
the uses designated in the Plan.
b. Preferences for Business Tenants as Tenants
Business tenants who desire to reenter the Redevelopment Project Area as tenants
will receive reasonable preferences to locate in the Project Area in accordance with the
prescribed uses of the Plan.
Section IV, PROCEDURE FOR BECOMING A PARTICIPANT
A. Procedure for Participation as Business Owner, Residential Owner or Business
Tenant
Every person interested in becoming a participant as a business owner or tenant
must submit to the Agency a statement indicating such interest. A form for this purpose
may be obtained from the Agency on request.
The Agency may disregard Statements of Interest submitted after the end of the
thirty (30) day period immediately following the date of the publication of the ordinance of
the City Council adopting the Redevelopment Plan.
The Agency will notify each person who submits a Statement of Interest of the
time within which he must submit his proposal for participation.

Opportunity will be given to discuss proposals with the Agency staff Bnd to make
necessary adjustments. The Agency will make every effort to meet the desires of every
person desiring to participate in the Project,
8, Participation Aareement
Each owner or tenant who has submitted an acceptable proposal for owner or
tenant participation will be required to enter into a participation agreement with the
Agency. Each agreement will contain provisions necessary to insure that the participation
proposal will be carried out, and that the subject property will be developed or used in
accordance with the conditions, restrictions, rules and regulations of the Redevelopment
Plan and the agreement.
The agreement will specifically mention the following:
1. Parking facilities per the requirements of the City of Chula Vista and/or
provisions for Public Transit (if any) shall be applicable to the
owner/participant in the same manner and degree as they affect a new
purchaser/developer in the project
2. The owner/participant will be assessed by a Special Assessment District (if
any) in the same proportion or ratio as that of a new developer for the
purpose of maintaining common areas, parking areas, and other public
project facilities.
Each agreement will furthermore require the participant to join in the recordation of
such documents as the Agency will require in order to insure such development, The
agreement will also provide that a successor in interest of the original participant may
become a participant with the approval of the Agency.
Participation agreements will be effective only if approved by the members of the
Agency.

SECTION I. (100) INTRODUCTION
A. (101) General
This is the Amended Redevelopment Plan for the BayfTont Redevelopment Project
("Plan"), located in the City of Chula Vista, County of San Diego, State of California. It
consists of the text (Sections 100 through 1200), the Project Area Map of the Bayfront
Redevelopment Project Area ("Project Area") (Exhibit A), and the legal description of
the Project Area boundaries (Exhibit B).
This Plan has been prepared by the Chula Vista Redevelopment Agency ("Agency")
pursuant to the California Co=unity Redevelopment Law (Health and Safety Code
Section 33000, ~ ~.), the California Constitution and all applicable laws and
ordinances. It does not present a specific plan for the redevelopment, rehabilitation and
revitalization of any area within the Project Area; instead, it establishes a process and
framework for implementation. This Plan is based upon the Preliminary Plan for
Amendment No, 5 to the Bavfront Redevelopment Plan formulated and adopted by the
Chula Vista Planning Commission and the Agency on July 23,1997 and October 7,1997,
respectively.
This Plan amends and supersedes the existing Redevelopment Plan for the Bayfront
Redevelopment Project ("Project"), originally adopted on July 16, 1974, and most
recently, amended on November 8, 1994 ("Existing Plan"). This Plan will amend the
Existing Plan as follows;
1. Increase the size of the Project Area by approximately 398 acres by incorporating
property within the jurisdiction of the San Diego Unified Port District ("Port
District"),
2. Extend, to July 2010, the time frame within which the Agency may co=ence
eminent domain proceedings to acquire property in the Project Area,
3. Extend, to January 1, 2004, the time frame within which the Agency may incur
indebtedness for the existing Bayfront Redevelopment Project Area ("Existing
Area"),
4. Extend, to July 16,2014, the effectiveness of the Existing Plan for the Existing Area,
5. Extend, to July 16,2024, the time period within which the Agency may collect tax
increment revenue from the Existing Area,

6. Replace the Existing Plan's Statement of Basic Objectives, General Land Use Plan,
and Controls to more comprehensively correlate to the Agency's current goals, and to
provide that land uses in the Project Area are to be consistent with the City's General
Plan and Title 19 of the Chula Vista Municipal Code, the Local Coastal Program, the
Port District's Master Plan, and all other state and local building codes, guidelines, or
specific plans, as they now exist or are hereafter amended, and
7. Restate the remaining provisions of the Existing Plan.
SECTION II. (200) BACKGROUND
The Existing Plan was originally adopted by the City Council by Ordinance No. 1541 on July 16,
1974. Since this action, the Existing Plan has been amended on four separate occasions. On July
17,1979, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 1872 that merged the fmancial provisions of
the Existing Plan with the Town Centre I Redevelopment Plan. On April 22, 1986, the City
Council adopted Ordinance No. 2146 that amended the Existing Plan for a second time by
enacting new time limits to enact eminent domain and incur debt, while establishing a
cumulative tax increment limit. Amendment No.3 was adopted by the City Council on January

INTRODUCTION
Established by the City Council on October 24, 1972, the ChuIa Vista Redevelopment Agency
("Agency") is responsible for oversight of the five redevelopment projects in the City of Chula
Vista ("City"). One of these projects is the Bayfront Redevelopment Project ("Project"), which
was initiated on July 16, 1974, by Ordinance No. 1541 that adopted the original Redevelopment
Plan for the Bayfront Redevelopment Project ("Original Plan") and established the existing
Bayfront Redevelopment Project Area ("Existing Area"). Since its inception, the Original Plan
has been amended on four separate occasions, most recently in November 1994. The Original
Plan, as amended ("Existing Plan"), has guided the Agency's redevelopment program in the
Project Area to date.
Since 1976, the Agency has targeted its redevelopment efforts to mitigate specific physical and
economic blighting conditions in the Existing Area. Despite the success of these efforts, full
redevelopment of the Existing Area is not yet complete, due to continued redevelopment of the
Existing Area is inhibited by limitations in the Existing Plan, Further, the Agency seeks now to
proactively encourage redevelopment of tidelands west of the Existing Area to reverse decades
of improper utilization. To expand its ability to address redevelopment needs in both the
Existing Area and in the tidelands, the Agency seeks to undertake a series of amendments.
On October 7, 1997, the Agency accepted and approved the Preliminary Plan for Amendment
No.5 to the Bavfront Redevelopment Plan. This action initiated proceedings to amend the
Existing Plan ("Amendment") as follows;
I. Add approximately 398 acres of tidelands property ("Added Area") within the
jurisdiction of the San Diego Unified Port District ("Port District") to establish the
1,035-acre Bayfront Redevelopment Project Area ("Project Area"),
. 2. Extend, to July 201O, the time ftame within which the Agency may commence
eminent domain proceedings to acquire property in the Project Area,
3. Extend, to January I, 2004, the time ftame within which the Agency may incur
indebtedness for the Existing Area,

April, 1998 i C - t(.3 Bayfront Amendment No.5 - Preliminary Repol1
-. . - --'"
4. Extend, to July 16,2014, the effectiveness of the Existing Plan for the Existing Area,
5. Extend, to July 16, 2024, the time period within which the Agency may collect tax
increment revenue from the Existing Area,
6. Replace the Existing Plan's Statement of Basic Objectives, General Land Use Plan,
and Controls to more comprehensively correlate to the Agency's current goals, and to
provide that land uses in the Project Area are to be consistent with the City's General
Plan and Title 19 of the Chula Vista Municipal Code, the Local Coastal Program, the
Port District's Master Plan, and all other state and local building codes, guidelines, or
specific plans, as they now exist or are hereafter amended, and
7. Restate the remaining provisions of the Existing Plan.
Upon adoption of the Amendment, the Amended Redevelopment Plan for the Project ("Plan")
will amend, supersede, and guide all future redevelopment activities, projects, and programs in
the Project Area. However, the Amendment will not affect the Agency's outstanding obligations
or indebtedness.
Authorization for this Amendment
The California Community Redevelopment Law, Health and Safety Code Sections 33000 et.
~ ("Law") provides redevelopment agencies with the authority to undertake revitalization
efforts in blighted areas in the community. As dermed by the Law, redevelopment includes the
rehabilitation, reconstruction, and improvement of existing structures; the provision of public
improvements; and the replanning or redesign of blighted properties within a project area. The
Law pennits redevelopment agencies to amend redevelopment plans, subject to the preparation
of documents by the agency to substantiate the need for such an amendment, the convening of an
agency/city council public hearing, and the consideration and adoption of an amending ordinance
by the city council.

This is the Preliminary Report for the Amendment ("Preliminary Report"), which outlines the
reasons for the Amendment, and details the Agency's proposed redevelopment program to be
implemented through the Plan. Upon the completion of this Preliminary Report, as well as the
Draft Environmental Impact Report, Amended Relocation Plan, and Draft Amendment, the
Agency will initiate discussions with the affected taxing entities, the Planning Commission, and
the community-at-Iarge as to the scope and nature of the proposed Amendment. Following these
discussions, the Agency will incorporate this input into the Report to Council and Final
Environmental Impact Report. These documents will be used to substantiate and document the
Amendment, which is scheduled to be considered by the City Council after a noticed
Agency/City Council public hearing tentatively scheduled for June 1998.
This Preliminary Report has been divided into the following sections:
SECTION A. The Reasons for the Amendment.
SECTION B. A Description of the Physical and Economic Conditions Existing in the Project
Area.
SECTION C. A Determination as to Whether the Project Area is Predominantly Urbanized.
SECTION D. A Preliminary Assessment of the Proposed Method of Financing, Including the
Economic Feasibility and the Reasons for the Division of Tax Increment.
SECTION E. A Description of the Projects Proposed by the Agency.
SECTION F. A Description of How the Proposed Projects Will Improve and Alleviate
Blighting Conditions.

SECTION A
The Reasons for the Amendment
This section of the Preliminary Report describes the Project Area, highlights the Agency's
redevelopment activities to date, and outlines the reasons for the proposed Amendment.
General Characteristics
Geographic Location
The Project Area is located in the City of Chula Vista ("City"), San Diego County, California.
Situated along the San Diego Bay in southwestern San Diego County, the City is adjoined by the
City of National City to the north, the City of San Diego to the south, the San Diego Bay to the
west, and unincorporated San Diego County to the east. The City was incorporated in 1911 and
is approximately 32,066 acres in size.
The Existing Area is located on the west side of the City, and is generally bounded by Interstate
5 to the east, the City limits to the north, and L Street on the south, and the San Diego Bay and
Port District tidelands to the west. The Existing Area is 637 acres in size, and constitutes
approximately 2.0% of the total area of the City. The primary existing land uses within the
Existing Area are industrial and commercial.
As proposed, the Added Area would incorporate the Port District properties and fully extend the
Project Area boundaries to the San Diego Bay. The Added Area is bounded by the Existing Area
to the east and north, the San Diego Bay to the south, and the Combined U.S. Pierhead and
Bulkhead Line to the west. The Added Area encompasses approximately 398 acres, or 1.2% of
the City. If the Amended Plan is adopted, the Project Area would be comprised of both the
Existing and the Added Areas, and would total approximately 1,035 acres.

The boundaries of the Project Area, including separate designations for both the Existing and
Added Areas, are depicted on Exhibit A-I.
Reasons for the Selection of the Existing Area
According to the Original Plan, redevelopment of the Existing Area was necessary to address the
following problems:
. The danger to the quality and quantity of the marine life due to uncontrolled development of
a project area which contains such unique features as salt marshes and endangered wildlife
species.
. The decline in coastal environment, including recreation and aesthetic values, due to the
uninterrupted water-related general industrial development in the South Bay area.
Development of this nature is obviously contra-indicated due to the lack of deep water
access.
. The desire to create a modern urban commerciaVrecreational center for the City of Chula
Vista where a range of activity from housing to recreation could take place and where a
living and working environmental could exist for the use and enjoyment of the general
public.
. The existence of soil and groundwater contamination from hazardous materials that have
depreciated property values and impaired investments and that can only be economically
remediated through the use of redevelopment powers.
. The substantial existence of environmentally sensitive and degraded wetlands which require
extraordinary land dedication, restoration, and long-tenn mitigation monitoring, all of which
create a substantial burden on the economic use of the properties and result in depreciated
values and impaired investments.
. The lack of public improvements and utilities, which combined with the blighting conditions
listed above, creates a serious physical and economic burden on Chula Vista which cannot be
alleviated practically by government or private activity without redevelopment powers.
Agency's Accomplishments Within the Existing Area
Since adoption of the Existing Plan in 1974, the Agency has worked to alleviate certain of these
conditions through the following efforts;
Rosenow Spevacek Group, Inc. Chula Vista Redevelopment Agency
April, 1998 A-2 jaYfront Amendment No.5 - Preliminary Report
C. -"1
- . , -
. Prepared a Mid-bayfront Development Plan in conjunction with the landowner/developer and
regulatory agencies.
. Prepared and processed Local Coastal Plan through the California Coastal Commission and
received certification in February 1993, The plan includes all of the City's coastal properties,
including the Existing Area.
. Planned and constructed the Nature Interpretive Center in cooperation with the Bayfront
Conservancy Trust.
. Acquired and cleared properties for redevelopment along Bay Boulevard, north and south of
F Street.
. Successfully relocated auto wrecking businesses from the Existing Area.
. Acquired property for the reconfiguration of the Caltrans 1-5 southbound off-ramp which has
been completed along with the widening ofE Street, west on-5,
. Completed the following redevelopment projects:
>- Anthony's Restaurant
>- Days Inn
>- El Torito Restaurant
>- Rohr Admin. Office Building
>- Marina Gateway Industrial Project
>- Soup Exchange
>- Nature Interpretive Center
Due to limitations of the Existing Plan, however, the Agency will not be able to adequately
mitigate many remaining blighting conditions in the Existing Area. These limitations jeopardize
the Agency's ability to continue redevelopment projects, programs, and activities in the Existing
Area. In part, the Amendment will enable the Agency to continue with the redevelopment
program in the Existing Area by modifying the Existing Plan's limits.
Reasons for the Amendment
The Amendment would adjust the Existing Plan as necessary to correct blight in the Existing
Area, while incorporating the Added Area to facilitate redevelopment of Port District tidelands.
These proposed amendments are described below:

Since the Original Plan was adopted in 1976, the Agency has had the ability to acquire
property by eminent domain. Although it has been sparingly used, eminent domain authority
has been a necessary adjunct to land acquisition negotiations. In order for the Agency to
continue to effectively implement projects involving land assembly, an extension on the time
limit on eminent domain authority will be necessary. The Amendment would establish a new
12-year time frame within which the Agency may employ, as a last resort, eminent domain in
the Existing Area to acquire property to implement the Plan.
. Extend time frame to incur debt from July 1999 to January 2004; The Existing Plan
prohibits the Agency from incurring debt after July 16, 1999. After this deadline has been
reached, the Agency may only collect tax increment revenue to payoff preexisting
indebtedness. Incurring additional debt will be necessary to initiate any new redevelopment
projects or programs funded from future tax increment revenues. Under Subsection
33333.6(a) of the Law, the Plan's time limit on incurring debt may be the later of 20 years
after adoption of the Original Plan (or July 16, 1994), or January 1,2004. The Amendment
would extend the Existing Plan's time limit on incurring Existing Area debt to January I,
2004, as prescribed by Subsection 33333.6(a) of the Law.
. Extend effectiveness of Existing Plan from July 1999 to July 2014; The Existing Plan's 25-
year duration that is less than the 40-year duration pennitted by Subsection 33333.6(b) of the
Law. Under the Existing Plan, with the exception of collecting tax increment and repaying
indebtedness, all redevelopment activities, including enforcement of land use controls and
completion ofprojects, must cease by July 1999. Extending the Existing Plan's effectiveness
will enable the Agency to continue an active redevelopment program in the Existing Area for
an additional 15 years, as pennitted by Law.

. Extend time period to collect tax increment revenue from July 2011 to July 2024: Subsection
33333.6(c) of the Law provides that redevelopment agencies may collect tax increment
revenue for 10 years after a redevelopment plan's effectiveness has expired. In conjunction
with the proposed Amendment's extension of the effectiveness of the Existing Plan to July
2014, the Amendment would also extend the time limit on the collection of tax increment
revenue to ten years beyond the July 2016 effectiveness limit, or to July 2024.
. Update Statement of Basic Objectives, General Land Use Plan, and Controls for
Consistency; The Existing Plan features land use provisions and redevelopment actions that
are inconsistent with the City's land use policy documents, such as the General Plan, Zoning
Ordinance (Title 19 of the Chula Vista Municipal Code), the Local Coastal Program, and the
Port District's Master Plan. Because the City and Port District use these aforementioned
documents to set and guide land use policy in the Project Area, it is important that the Plan
also reflect these policies. In order to better respond to the redevelopment needs more
effectively, the Amendment would replace the Existing Plan's Statement of Basic Objectives,
General Land Use Plan, and Controls with language that incorporates the City's and Port
District's land use documents, as they now exist, or are hereafter amended.
Added Area
To facilitate the redevelopment of Port District tidelands, the Amendment would also increase
the size of the Project Area by approximately 398 acres by incorporating the Added Area. The
redevelopment is necessary in the Added Area to mitigate a variety of physical and economic
conditions that have contributed to the lack of proper utilization of Port District tidelands in
Chula Vista relative to other tidelands in National City, San Diego, and Coronado. These
physical and economic conditions include; excessive vacant lots, low lease rates, adequate
public infrastructure, incompatible uses, and suspected hazardous contamination. (These
conditions are more thoroughly described in Section B of this Preliminary Report.) The Plan
would pennit the Agency to embark on a comprehensive redevelopment program in the Added
Area by mitigating these conditions to facilitate viable redevelopment activities.

SECTION B
A Description of the Physical and Economic Blighting
Conditions Existing in the Project Area
This section identifies and describes the physical and economic conditions in the Project Area.
Definition of Blight
The Law defines the physical and economic blight that must be pervasive in a redevelopment
project area. Pursuant to Section 33030 of the Law, properties in a redevelopment project area
must exhibit both physical and economic blight, which is summarized below;
Physical blight includes the following;
1. Buildings in which it is unsafe or unhealthy for persons to live or work. These conditions
can be caused by serious building code violations, dilapidation and deterioration, defective
design or physical construction, faulty or inadequate utilities, or other similar factors.
2. Factors that prevent or substantially hinder the economically viable use or capacity of
buildings or lots. This condition can be caused by a substandard design, inadequate size
given present standards and market conditions, lack of parking, or other similar factors.
3. Adjacent or nearby uses that are incompatible with each other and which prevent the
economic development of those parcels or other portions of a project area.
4. The existence of subdivided lots of irregular fonn and shape and inadequate size for proper
usefulness and development that are in multiple ownership.
Economic blight includes the following:
1. Depreciated or stagnant property values or impaired investments, including, but not
necessarily limited to, those properties containing hazardous wastes.
2. Abnormally high business vacancies, abnonnally low lease rates, high turnover rates,
abandoned buildings, or excessive vacant lots within an area developed for urban use and
served by utilities.
3. A lack of necessary commercial facilities that are nonnally found in neighborhoods,
including grocery stores, drug stores, and banks and other lending institutions.
Rosenow Spevacek Group, Inc. Chula Vista Redevelopment Agency
April,1998 B-1 Bayfront Amendment No.5 - Preliminary Repol1
C - (O~
-.
4. Residential overcrowding or an excess of bars, liquor stores, or other businesses that cater
exclusively to adults, that has led to problems of public safety and welfare.
5. A high crime rate that constitutes a serious threat to the public safety and welfare.
The Law also characterizes other conditions such as inadequate public improvements as blight
when other blighting conditions are present; more specifically, Section 33030(c) of the Law
provides as follows:
A blighted area also may be one that contains the (physical) conditions described in
subdivision (b) and is, in addition, characterized by the existence of inadequate public
improvements, parking facilities, or utilities.
Existing Area
For the Existing Area, the blighting conditions that were present when the Original Plan was
considered in 1974 are delineated in the Original Plan. In general, the Agency concluded that the
Project Area was plagued by serious physical and economic conditions that could not be reversed
without redevelopment. These conditions included the following;
. The existence of soil and groundwater contamination from hazardous materials that have
depreciated property values and impaired investments and that can only be economically
remediated through the use of redevelopment powers.
. The substantial existence of environmentally sensitive and degraded wetlands which require
extraordinary land dedication, restoration, and long-tenn mitigation monitoring, all of which
create a substantial burden on the economic use of the properties and result in depreciated
values and impaired investments.
. The lack of public improvements and utilities, which combined with the blighting conditions
listed above, creates a serious physical and economic burden on Chula Vista which cannot be
alleviated practically by government or private activity without redevelopment powers.
The Law requires a reevaluation of the blighting conditions only if an agency proposes to amend
a redevelopment plan by either extending the time limit to incur debt beyond January 1,2004, or
increase the tax increment limit. Because the proposed Amendment neither would extend time
limitations beyond January I, 2004, nor increase the Existing Plan's, $210.0 million limitation
on the number of dollars to be allocated to the Agency on behalf of the Project, a reevaluation of
blight in the Existing Area is not necessary or required for the proposed Amendment.

Added Area
Redevelopment is needed in the Added Area to remove physical and economic impediments and
facilitate economically viable development of tidelands properties in the Chula Vista Bayfront.
Added Area vacant tidelands have been available for development since the Port District was
established as the custodian of County tidelands in 1962. Over this time period, none of these
properties have developed, making Chula Vista the most underutilized territory of the Port'
District (Table B-1 below identifies the disposition of industrial tidelands). As of March 1998,
50.66 acres, or 41.6%, of the industrial and commercial land in the Added Area are undeveloped.

Among these knowledgeable individuals, the general consensus was that a combination of
market. physical. and economic factors have caused the stagnant condition of the Added Area.
Market conditions include poor demand for retail and industrial properties throughout Southern
California during the early to mid-1990's, and stale Port District land use policies that
encouraged the construction of aviation and maritime industrial related uses which are not

generally considered viable today in the Added Area. However, these market factors have
affected the Added Area and other Port District's properties equally and do not alone explain
why the lack of utilization in the Added Area is more acute.
Beyond these market-sensitive factors are additional factors that have impacted the long-tenn
neglect for the Added Area. These long-tenn factors include physical and economic conditions
that have hindered development both in good and bad economic periods. These conditions have
not only inhibited development of Added Area properties, but have secondarily become a
liability on the Port District's $10 million investment in the Chula Vista Marina.
Blighting Conditions Present in Added Area
The following physical and economic conditions are found in the Added Area (the correlating
sections of the Law are noted in parentheses);
. Impaired investments due to suspected hazardous contamination in the Added Area (Section
33031(b)(I»;
. Excessive vacant lots (Section 33031 (b )(2);
. Land use incompatibilities caused by existing industrial uses (Section 3303 I (a)(3));
. Inadequate circulation (Section 33030(c»;
. Abnonnally low commercial lease rates discouraging new development (Section
3303 I (b)(2)); and
. Factors substantially hindering the economically viable use of Added Area properties
(Section 3303 1 (a)(2»).
Sections 33030 and 33031 of the Law enumerate each of these six physical and economic
conditions as causes of blight. With the Amendment, the Agency may embark on a coordinated
redevelopment program to alleviate blighting conditions in the Added Area.
This section of the Preliminary Report analyzes these physical and economic conditions in the
Added Area.

. ImDaired Investments/Suspected Hazardous Contamination. While no extensive soils or
groundwater tests have yet been conducted in the Added Area (or, if such tests have been
conducted by private parties with access to the Added Area, the results have not been made
public), there is universal concern among Port District and City staff over the presence of
hazardous contamination in the Added Area. In large part, this concern stems from the long-
term transportation, use, generation, and storage of hazardous materials at the B.F. Goodrich
manufacturing facility on Marina Parkway. As a 4S-year old manufacturer of aircraft
nacelles, the presence of toxic contamination at the B.F. Goodrich property is likely.
According to the Final Environmental Impact Report for the Chula Vista Business Park
Expansion and Port Master Plan Amendment (September 1997) prepared by KEA
Environmental, the B.F. Goodrich (formerly Rohr Industries) facility".. . has underground
(storage) tanks, which have been reported as leaking, and above-ground storage tanks. Rohr
(B.F. Goodrich) also has reported releases of oil and hazardous substances." (The Regional
Office of the State Water Quality Control Board has 6 cases ofleaking underground tanks,
while the County Department of Environmental Health reports that there have been 9
unauthorized releases at the B.F. Goodrich property.) The Master Plan FEIR concludes that
"Based on known evidence, there is potential for significant impacts (emphasis added) to the
soil and groundwater resulting from the transportation, utilization, generation, and storage of
hazardous materials bY,Rohr Industries, Inc." Potential hazardous contamination impacts
include many adverse outcomes, including neurological damage, birth defects, and cancer.
On March 26, 1998, the State Water Resources Control Board issued B.F. Goodrich a
"Cleanup and Abatement Order" (CAO 98-08). The CAO indicated that B.F. Goodrich
(Rohr) has discharged chlorinated solvents, metals, and fuel hydrocarbons to soil and ground
water in multiple locations and metals into the storm water conveyance system serving the
site. Other wastes associated with metal melting, metal casting, metal parts fabrication,
degreasing, cleaning, anodizing, plating, chemical milling, conversion coaring, painting, and
sludge treatment/recycling activities may have been discharged. Discharges of waste from
the storm water conveyance system, whether from within the system or infiltrative, are
Rosenow Spevacek Group, Inc. Chuta Vista Redevelopment Agency
April, 1998 B-6 Bayfront Amendment No.5 - Preliminary Report
C -/~ 10-,
-. . -
carried to San Diego Bay by daily tidal flux and storm water. Discharges of waste from Rohr
have caused an exceedance of water quality objectives in ground water and surface water."
The CAD outlined a series of comprehensive directives to B.F. Goodrich to cleanup the
waste and the effects of the discharges. these directives include:
. Providing a statewide environmental assessment;
. Conducting comprehensive storm water runoff sampling;
. Conducting a comprehensive storm water conveyance system investigation;
. Performing statewide data compilation and evaluation; and
. Interim remedial actions as necessary to abate or con-ect the effects of the discharge
and/or to mitigate emergency situations.
Depending upon the nature of hazardous contamination at the B.F. Goodrich site, the affected
area may extend to adjoining Added Area parcels. Mitigation measures contained in the
Master Plan FEIR include "evaluation of possible soil and groundwater contamination...on
the drainage channel adjacent to all storm water culverts and discharge pipes" prior to the
development of the 14.99-acre parcel south of the B.F. Goodrich facility. Seven of the nine
vacant parcels (nearly half of the total number of parcels in the Added Area) in the Added
Area are between 9 and 1,500 feet of the B.F. Goodrich property.
Both City Community Development and Port District real estate operations staffs agree that
suspected hazardous contamination impairs investments and is among the primary reasons
why developers have avoided pursuing projects in the Added Area, for fear that tests of the
soils and water table would confirm the presence of hazardous contamination. Because costs
of toxic contamination cleanup can be excessive, it is more desirable to pursue development
projects outside the Added Area where hazardous contamination concerns are less acute.
With redevelopment in the Added Area, the Agency and Port District may assist prospective
developers with their efforts to remediate any hazardous contamination.

. Excessive Vacant Lots. The Added Area consists of 15 parcels, of which 9 (60%) are vacant.
Exhibit B-1 depicts the location of the 9 vacant lots in the Added Area. As identified earlier
on Table B-1, the proportion of vacant properties in the Added Area is excessive relative to
other Port District tidelands.

While all 9 lots are within an area developed for an urban use, subdivided, and serviced by
roads and utilities, there has been virtually no development interest in developing these lots
for four decades. In fact, since the early 1980's, the only development that has occurred in
the Added Area directly resulted from three Port District-initiated public projects CChula
Vista marina, Bayside Park, and Chula Vista Bayfront Park). This history suggests that
continued public participation will be necessary to facilitate buildout of the Added Area.
Adoption of the Amendment pennits the Agency to become proactive in pursuing
development of the Added Area. The Plan encourages the Agency to execute development
and disposition agreements to coordinate development projects, assist with off-site
improvements, and engage in other economic development activities.
. Land Use IncomDatibilities. Discussions with the CitylPort District staff and real estate
brokers suggests that the physical condition of the B.F. Goodrich facility discourages the
development of industrial and commercial recreational uses to complement the adjoining
marina facility along Marina Parkway. The 197,000 square foot B.F. Goodrich facility
consists of32 buildings which were constructed over 45 years ago. Because of the facility's
older design and lack of visual buffers, this property is unsightly and presents
incompatibilities with prospective development in the Added Area. The following Exhibits
B-2 through B-5 are a series of photographs of the B.F. Goodrich facility taken in March
1998. These photographs show a lack of landscaping or other visual buffers to surrounding
properties in the area. According to local brokers active in the area, the physical condition of
.the B.F. Goodrich property negatively impacts delivery and user interest and lease rates in
the Added Area, as discussed later in this section. As a result, while the B.F. Goodrich
facility is certainly an economic asset to the City and South Bay region in the fonn of
significant jobs, the physically unattractive condition of the facility conflicts with potential
development of uses to complement the Chula Vista marina.

The Agency may use redevelopment to assist property owners with improvements to buffer
or otherwise mitigate the negative impacts of the B.F. Goodrich facility.
. Inadequate Circulation. The Added Area is constrained by poor east-west vehicular access
that prohibits convenient local and regional access to the retail, recreational, and industrial
uses in the Added Area.
According to the "H" Street Extension Feasibility Studv (July 1997) conducted by Boyle
Engineering Corporation, extension of"H" Street from its terminus at the east side of the
B.F. Goodrich property to Marina Parkway could substantially improve pedestrian,
automobile, and mass transit access to the greater Bayfront Area. However, according to
City and Port District staff, the extension of"H" Street is both an expensive and extensive
endeavor. First, preliminary costs estimates exceed $6.8 million, nearly six times the City's
average cost per mile on other road construction projects. Second, in order to construct the
extension, approximately 10 structures of the B.F. Goodrich facility may need to be relocated
or significantly altered because they are within the preferred alignment of the "H" Street
extension. The preliminary relocation cost estimate are at least $915,000
Not included in the project cost estimate are expenditures which may be necessary to clean
up hazardous contamination discovered in the course of relocating the structures off the
roadway alignment. These remediation costs could add hundreds, thousands, or millions of
dollars to the total project cost. The extent, nature, and remediation costs of any hazardous
contamination are unknown at this time because no tests have yet been conducted.
According to the Port District's ten-year capital improvement program for the period
beginning in the year 1998 and ending in 2007, the Port District only proposes to fund further
study of this project in the next ten years. No Port District funding has been budgeted to
meet the costs associated with the construction of the extension project. Also, the City does
not have the capital improvement resources available to fund the "H" Street extension
without the inclusion of the Added Area into the Project Area.
By extending the Project Area into the Added Area, the Agency will have additional
financial resources which may be pledged to the H Street extension project. Funding this

project will be critical to the overall viability of both existing and future development in the
entire Bayfront area.
. Low Lease Rates. In March 1998, RSG conducted a survey of real estate professionals
actively marketing properties either within or in the general vicinity of the Added Area. The
purpose of this survey was to evaluate current lease rates for various types of commercial
space permitted in the Added Area. Three categories of commercial lease rates were
analyzed; (I) multitenant industrial, (2) research and development industrial, and (3)
retail/entertainment center. The results of the telephone survey are indicated on Table B-3
below.

In the opinion of the brokers consulted, the lease rates indicated in Table B-3 are reflective of
the market's somewhat depreciated view of the Added Area. Other comparable locations
have rents as much as 50% higher than the Added Area.
Low lease rates are a result of many of the physical and economic conditions present in the
Added Area and are too low to support commercial development. To demonstrate this, RSG
developed a series of residual land value analyses for the 7 vacant parcels most acutely
impacted by Added Area development impediments. The residual land value analysis
Rosenow Spevacek Group, Inc. Chula Vista Redevelopment Agency
April,I998 B-14 BayfrontAmendment No.5- Preliminary Repol1
c.-~ ,tS*'
- . , -
technique is commonly used by developers and real estate investors to gauge whether the
total value of a project (based upon its anticipated rental income levels) exceeds the costs of
land acquisition and development and is, therefore, considered viable. (The basic premise of
profitable land development is that improvement increases the underlying value of the land.)
In the event that a project's rent levels do not yield a value that exceeds land and
development costs, development of such property is not considered feasible.
Tables B-4(a) through B-4(g) present the results ofRSG's residual land value analysis for
each of the 7 sites. The assumptions used in the residual analysis were derived fÌ'om
consultations fÌ'om local real estate professionals, and City and Port District planning staff.

As indicated in the residual analyses, the warranted investment based upon the project's
value at the current market rent levels is less than what a developer would have to pay to
secure the land and construct the improvements. The residual values for the industrial and
research and development projects are negative, meaning that development costs exceed the
value of the completed project. For the retail/entertainment project (shown on Table B-4(c))
while the costs of development are $0.10 per square feet less than the project's value, this
$0.10 margin is not sufficient to cover the current value of Port District land. (Based on
recent site-specific appraisals, Port District real estate operations staff indicated that Added
Area land is valued at $5.50 to $10.00 per square foot.) As a result, development at each of
the 7 sites by private parties is not feasible given current market lease rates, and other
impediments to development.
Redevelopment in the Added Area could result in direct and indirect increases of below-
market commercial lease rates. For example, the Agency could undertake improvements in
the Added Area to enhance the marketability of vacant parcels. On a more project specific
basis, the Agency could enter into development and disposition agreements to upgrade
existing commercial properties, or encourage the development of higher quality projects.
. Factors Hindering Economicallv Viable Use. The combination of the negative impacts of the
B.F. Goodrich property, a lack of convenient vehicular access, low lease rates, and likely
hazardous contamination hinder the viable development of Added Area properties. As
indicated in the residual land value analysis presented earlier, development under the CUITent
physical and economic conditions is not economically viable. Industrial and retail brokers
indicated that many potential users are deteITed by these conditions, thus reducing the pool of
potential development opportunities for the Added Area.
With the inclusion of the Added Area into the Project Area, the Agency may address these
barriers to viable development by constructing public improvements to improve access and
the overall character of the Added Area, or by working with B.F. Goodrich to mitigate visual
impacts to adjoining properties.

Conclusion
To recap, Added Area properties suffer from factors that hinder their economically viable use,
low lease rates, inadequate circulation, land use incompatibilities, excessive vacant lots, and
suspected hazardous contamination. These physical and economic conditions are consistent with
the Law's definition of blight. Redevelopment of the Added Area can alleviate these conditions
through the dedication of new community development and economic resources currently not
available to property owners, developers, the City, or the Port District.

SECTION C
A Determination as to Whether the Project Area is
Predominantly Urbanized
For all redevelopment project areas established after January I, 1984 or areas added to project
areas after January I, 1984, Section 33320.1 of the Law requires that such areas be
"predominantly urbanized" meaning that not less than 80 percent of the land (emphasis added) in
the project area;
. Has been or is developed for urban uses; or
. Is characterized by the existence of subdivided lots of irregular fonn and shape and
inadequate size for proper usefulness and development that are in multiple ownership, or
. Is an integral part of one or more areas developed for urban uses which are surrounded or
substantially surrounded by parcels which have been or are developed for urban uses.
Since the Existing Area was established in 1974 (before the urbanization statute took effect), the
Existing Area is not subjected to this urbanization test.
As territory proposed to be added to the Project Area, the Added Area is required to meet the
urbanization test. The Added Area is 397.6 acres in size, consisting of 121.67 acres of land and
275.93 acres of water (San Diego Bay). Pursuant to Section 33320.1 of the Law, not less than
80% of the 121.67 acres (or not less than 97.34 acres) of Added Area land must be urbanized in
that they fall into one of the three categories outlined above.
Table C-l accounts for the urbanization of the Added Area. A total of 102.84 acres, or 84.5% of
the land area, is urbanized. Urbanized areas include 71.01 acres which are currently developed,
0 acres of irregular lots, and 31.83 acres which are an integral part of an urban area in that they
are surrounded by developed parcels on three or more sides. Exhibit C-! graphically depicts the
location of urbanized and nonurbanized parcels in the Added Area.

SECTION D
A Preliminary Assessment of the Proposed Method of
Financing, Including the Economic Feasibility and the
Reasons for the Division of Tax Increment
General Financing Methods Available to the Agency
Redevelopment of the Project Area is proposed to be financed with a combination of a variety of
resources, including:
8 Financial assistance from the City, County, State of California and/or Federal
Government;
8 Tax increment revenue;
8 Bonded debt;
8 Proceeds fÌ'om lease or sale of Agency-owned property;
. Loans fÌ'om private financial institutions; and
8 AIty other legally available source.
The more typical sources of redevelopment financing that may be employed with the Project are
described below.
Financial Assistance fÌ'om the City. County. State. and/or the Federal Government
Historically, the Agency has received loans and advances fÌ'om the City for planning,
construction, and operating capital for administration of the Project until such time that sufficient
tax increment revenue is raised to repay loans and provide other means of operating capital. The
City has also deferred payments on Agency loans for land purchases, to benefit the Agency's
cash flow. Typically, such monies are used to meet short-term cash flow needs as the City's
Rosenow Spevacek Group, Inc. Chula Vista Redevelopment Agency
Aprll,I998 D-l Bay/rant Amendment No.5 - Preliminary Report
C -~/zt:t
-. . . ---
General Fund cannot carry extensive levels of Agency debt at the risk of threatening the City's
own cash balances.
As available, other funds such as state gas tax funds and federal Community Development Block
Grants were, and will continue to be used, as appropriate, to pay the costs of Project
implementation. The Agency and City will also continue to work together to pursue other
available grants and loans. The City or other public agencies may also issue bonds on behalf of
the Agency and provide in-kind assistance.
Property Tax Increment
The Agency will continue to use property tax increment as provided for in Section 33670 of the
Law, and is authorized in the Plan to employ tax increment financing to underwrite Project costs.
Tax increment revenue may OIÙY be used to pay indebtedness incUITed by the Agency;
indebtedness includes principal and interest on loans, monies advanced, or debts (whether
funded, refunded, assumed, or otherwise) incUITed by the Agency to fmance or refmance, in
whole or in part, redevelopment activities.
As a result o,fthe adoption of Amendment No.1 by Ordinance No. 1872 in 1979, the financial
provisions of the Existing Plan were merged with the Town Centre I Redevelopment Plan,
permitting the Agency to employ resources from both project areas to underwrite implementation
costs in either project area.
Project tax increment revenues are distributed to address an array of obligations. As required by
Section 33334.6 of the Law, twenty percent (20%) of Project tax increment revenue is deposited
into the Housing Fund for the purposes of increasing, improving, and preserving the
community's supply oflow and moderate income housing.
The remaining 80% of the tax increment revenue will be used to pay for taxing entity
obligations, debt service costs, and other program expenditures. Remaining nonhousing

C-~ 13f
-.
revenues will finance some of the proposed ilÚÌ'astructure capital facility and economic
development programs within the Project Area.
With the addition of new territory, the Project will collect separate streams of tax increment
revenue from the Existing Area and the Added Area. Tax increment ITom each of these areas
will be based upon separate base year values and district limitations. However, either stream of
revenue may fund implementation costs both throughout the Project Area and the Town Centre I
Redevelopment Project Area.
Existing Area
The Amendment proposes to extend the time period within which the Agency may collect tax
increment revenue ITom the Existing Area by 15 years. Under the Existing Plan, the Agency is
prohibited from receiving Existing Area tax increment revenue after July 16,2009, except for the
purposes of financing housing production obligations required by Section 33413 of the Law and
indebtedness incurred prior to January 1, 1994. The Amendment would extend this time limit to
July 16,2024.
The Amendment would not amend the Existing Plan's $210.0 million limit on the cumulative
amount of tax increment which may be collected from the Existing Area. According to the City
Finance Department, a total of $ 56.6 mi l.of Project tax increment has been collected under the
existing $210.0 million cap as of June 30, 1997.
Added Area
The Plan would feature separate time limits on the collection of Added Area tax increment
revenue. (The Law no longer requires limits on the amount of tax increment revenue.) By Law,
and as stated in the Plan, the Agency would collect tax increment revenue for a period of 45
years following adoption of the ordinance adopting the Amendment. Assuming the Amendment
Rosenow Spevacek Group, Inc. Chula Vista Redevelopment Agency
April,I998 D-3 Bayfront Amendment No.5 - Preliminary Report
C-~/31
-. . -
is adopted in July 1998, the Agency would receive Added Area tax increment revenue until July
2043.
Bonded Debt
Under the Plan, the Agency would have a capacity to issue bonds and/or notes for any of its
corporate purposes, payable in whole or in part from tax increment revenue.
Historically, bonded debt has been an integral component of the Agency's financing program to
eliminate blight in the Project Area. The Agency has three outstanding bond issues which are
funded in part by Project tax increment revenues; these bonds, which are obligations of both the
Project and the Town Centre I Redevelopment Project, are enumerated below:
I) 1994 Senior Tax Allocation Refunding Bonds, Series A
2) 1994 Subordinate Tax Allocation Refunding Bonds, Series C
3) 1994 Subordinate Tax Allocation Refunding Bonds, Series D
The Amendment will not change the Existing Plan's $50.0 million limit on the amount of bonded
debt principal which may be outstanding at anyone time. This $50.0 million will remain the
same in the proposed Plan, and will apply to both the Existing Area and the Added Area.
Lease or Sale of Agencv-Owned Property
The Agency may sell, lease, or otherwise encumber its property holdings to pay. the costs of
Project implementation.

-. .. -
Participation in DeveloDment
If the Agency enters into agreements with property owners, tenants, and/or other developers
which provide for revenues to be paid or repaid to the Agency, such revenues may be used to pay
Project implementation costs.
Other Available Sources
Any other loans, grants, or financial assistance from the federal government, or any other public
or private source will be utilized, as available and appropriate. The Agency will also consider
use of the powers provided by Chapter 8 (Redevelopment Construction Loans) of the Law to
provide construction funds for appropriate projects. Where feasible and appropriate, the Agency
may use assessment district and/or Mello-Roos bond fmancing to pay for the costs of public
infrastructure, facilities, and operations.
Projected Tax Increment Revenues
Project implementation, and specifically new development throughout the Project Area, will
generate tax increment revenue. Tax increment revenue is generated by increases in the assessed
value exceeding the respective base year assessed value of the Existing and Added Areas.
Tables D-l(a) through D-l(c) present the projected tax increment revenues for the Project.
Actual 1997-98 assessed values have been incorporated into the projections. Future secured
assessed values in the Project Area are assumed to increase by 5%, annually, while unsecured
and nonunitary utility values are assumed to grow by 2% annually.
Under the Existing Plan, the Agency would be generally prohibited from collecting tax
increment revenue after July 16, 2009.1 Over the period between 1998-99 and 2008-09, RSG

estimates that the Project could generate approximately $31.0 million in tax increment revenue.
This revenue would consist of $6.2 million in Housing Fund revenues and $24.8 million of
Nonhousing Fund revenues.
The Amendment, among other things, would extend the time frame to collect revenue from the
Existing Area, while permit the Agency to collect tax increment from the Added Area. As such,
the Amendment would enable the Project to generate additional tax increment revenue beyond
what is permitted under the Existing Plan.
If the Amendment is adopted, RSG's tax increment revenue forecast estimates that
approximately $141.4 million of gross tax increment revenue could be generated by the Project.
Of this amount, $28.3 million would be deposited to the Agency's Housing Fund, and $113.1
million would be available to the Nonhousing Fund.
Because the Amendment extends the time frame to incur debt, extends the duration of the
Existing Plan's effectiveness, and adds new territory to the Project Area, the Agency would be
required to share a portion (projected to be approximately $15.1 million) of its Nonhousing Fund
revenue with the affected taxing agencies pursuant to Sections 33607.5 and 33607.7 of the Law
("Statutory Payments"). For the Existing Area, these Statutory Payments would commence in
the fiscal year after the first of either the time limit to incur debt or the effectiveness the Existing
Plan would be reached. Since these time limits expire in fiscal year 1999-2000, the Statutory
Payments from the Existing Area would start in the 2000-01 fiscal year. For the Added Area,
Statutory Payments would start in the first fiscal year the Agency would receive tax increment
revenue from the Added Area (assumed to be 1999-2000).
According to Section 33607.5 of the Law, beginning in the payment first year, the Statutory
Payments are equal to 25% of the Project's annual nonhousing tax increment revenue in excess
of amounts received in the prior year. These Statutory Payments are subject to two subsequent
increases. The first increase in Statutory Payments would take effect in the payment eleventh
year, when the Agency would be required to pay 21% of the incremental increase in nonhousing

tax increment revenues exceeding amounts in the tenth payment year. The Law further provides
for a second increase in the Statutory Payments that commences in the thirty-first payment year.
However, because this increase would occur after the Plan's July 2024 time limit on the
collection of Existing Area tax increment revenue, no additional Statutory Payments from the
Existing Area would be required.
The actual amount of the Statutory Payments will vary based on the amount of tax increment
revenues collected by the Agency each year. A forecast of Statutory Payments has been included
on Tables D-I(a) through D-I(c) in this Section. Should actual tax increment revenues exceed or
fall below these projections, actual Statutory Payments would be higher or lower.
The following Table D-2 is a list of affected taxing agencies in the Project Area. Each taxing
agency is entitled to their respective share of the Statutory Payment. All agencies receive their
share of the Statutory Payments, except for the City of Chula Vista, which, by Section 33607,5,
is only entitled to their share of the first 25% of the Statutory Payments.

Economic Feasibility Analysis
The Amendment enhances the economic feasibility of Project implementation by pennitting the
Agency more time to incur and repay debt from the Existing Area. Also, the Amendment
provides the Agency the ability to initiate and finance redevelopment activities in the Added
Area as well. Table 0-3 compares the cumulative tax increment revenue flows anticipated both
with and without the Amendment. As indicated in Table 0-3, given the assumptions on growth
described earlier in this section, the Amendment would provide the Agency with the capability to
collect $110.3 million (355%) more gross tax increment revenue to implement redevelopment
programs in both the Existing and Added Areas.

An analysis of the City's fmancial statements indicates that the City cannot fund redevelopment
implementation without tax increment financing. Since 1992, the General Fund budget has
experienced a 20% overall increase, while property and sales tax revenues to support these costs
have increased by 8% over the .same time period. Currently, all City General Fund resources are
pledged to operations or reserved for specific purposes, such as retirement funds, insurance
reserves, and emergency contingencies. If these funds were reallocated to redevelopment uses,
the City General Fund would be faced with a funding shortfall in its existing commitments. In
addition, the passage of Proposition 218 in November 1996 presents new impediments to
assessment district creation and revenue generation. Increasing development fees is also not a
viable option, since increasing such fees would only further handicap the City's overall
economic development efforts to attract new business to the Project Area.
The Port District is also unable to shift additional resources from its regional 10 year capital
improvement program to Chura Vista, because doing so would compromise higher .priority
tidelands projects with a greater regional benefit (such as the San Diego Convention Center).
Consequently, tax increment revenue will be an essential funding source for redevelopment
activities.

SECTION E
A Description of the Projects Proposed by the Agency
The Agency's Five-Year Implementation Plan for the Project delineates a variety of
infrastructure, community development, and affordable housing projects and programs for the
Existing Area, which, combined with additional activities in the Added Area, will allow the
Agency to undertake a comprehensive redevelopment effort throughout the Project Area. These
projects and programs include, without limitation, the following;
. Cleanup of contaminated properties
. Extension of "H" Street to Marina Parkway
. Disposition of Agency property as Bay Boulevard and "E" Street
. Completion of Midbayfront development agreement
. Construction of the Padres' Ballpark
If the Amendment is adopted, the extension of time limits will permit the Agency with greater
capabilities to initiate additional projects in the Existing Area. Further, by extending the Project
Area boundaries to include the Added Area, the Agency will be empowered to undertake
redevelopment activities in the Added Area as well. These additional redevelopment activities
will be established by future annual work programs, implementation plans, and the provisions of
the Plan. Overall, implementation of the Project will occur gradually over the remaining
duration of the Plan.

SECTION F
A Description of How the Proposed Projects Will
Improve and Alleviate Blighting Conditions
With the Amendment, the Agency would continue to implement a comprehensive community
development program. The authorities and provisions of the Plan have been developed to permit
the Agency to enact redevelopment projects targeting the blight that exists within the Project
Area.
Infrastructure Improvements. The traffic/circulation system improvements are those that have
been identified in the various studies that the City has commissioned to address circulation
deficiencies within the Project Area. Construction of the "H" Street extension will better local
and regional access to the Project Area. Other infrastructure needs, such as those provided by
the Midbayfront development program, will be designed to increase the operational capacity of
Project Area roadways (through improved signage, signalization, and travelways), address the
shortage of civic and recreational facilities serving the Project Area (by upgrading and improving
local parks), and remove many barriers to economic growth (such as perimeter buffering to the
B.F. Goodrich property). Overall, street, sanitary sewer, strom drain, utility, public facility, and
other infrastructure projects in the Project Area will eliminate both physical and economic
blighting conditions.
Community DeveloDment Proiects/Programs. These projects/programs are designed to address
the blighting conditions by assisting private enterprise with rehabilitation and/or expansion
activities, or through the acquisition of needed property. The Agency proposes to provide funds
to assist in land acquisition or the construction of on- and off-site infrastructure improvements,
or partially funding parking improvements. As existing structures age, the Agency also proposes
to provide assistance over the life of the Plan to facilitate the rehabilitation of these structures,
Such programs will enable the Agency to redevelop substandard properties in a manner
consistent with the General Plan. Also, the Agency will engage in efforts to alleviate hazardous
materials and other impediments to development in the Project Area. These programs will allow

the Agency to facilitate viable development of local and regional serving commercial and
industrial projects in the Project Area.
Housing/Low and Moderate Income Assistance. The expenditure of Housing Fund revenues will
assist the City in implementing the goals and programs set forth in 'the Agency's Affordable
Housing Compliance Plan and the Housing Element of the City's General Plan, and will allow
the Agency to enhance housing opportunities for very low, low, and moderate income
households. Further, the proposed housing projects will eliminate blight in the community by
repairing or rehabilitating substandard or deteriorating residential structures,
