BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION
Not applicable.
DISCUSSION
The new Downtown Property and Business Improvement District (PBID) is an assessment district
funded by property owners through annual assessments on their property tax bills. The City
collects the annual assessments and will pass through the assessment to the PBID on a monthly
/- {
PAGE 2, ITEM NO.:
MEETING DATE: 10/23/01
basis. In addition, the City itself as 0 property owner will be assessed annually. The first year
assessment is due before the end of the current calendar year and will be approximately
$43,000.
The proposed Cooperative Agreement spells out the relationship between the City and the new
district and includes the following provisions:
. Submittal of a Budget and Management Plan by December 31 every year for approval
by the City;
. Submittal of an semi-annual Financial Report to the Community Development
Director;
. Requirement for open accounting records and maintenance and oversight by the
Finance and Community Development Departments;
. Budget flexibility with City oversight;
. Monthly payment by the 15th day following the month funds are collected by the City
from the County (per internal agreement with the City Finance Department);
. Prohibition on political contributions by the PBID;
. Payment of City administrative costs associated with the assessment district;
. Indemnification of the City in all activities conducted by the PBID;
. Standard prohibitions against discrimination.
If approved by Council, the Agreement will become effective on Jonuary 1, 2002.
In addition to the aforementioned Agreement, the PBID provides for the initial oppointment of a
13 member Board of Directors by the City Council. An initial slate of members has been
proposed (see Attachment No.2). The Board includes a representative from the City (with full
voting rights) and from the County, as well as property owners, business owners and community
members. Members will serve staggered four year terms, as determined by a straw vote at their
first formal meeting. The City's representative would at this point in time be the City's
Redevelopment Manager.
The City and Redevelopment Agency have already determined that the Agency will be responsible
for payment of the City and Agency's annual share of the assessment, pursuant to internal
agreement. The annual assessment will be paid from funds currently earmarked for salary,
promotions and advertising for the Downtown Business Association. It is estimated that the first
year's assessment will be approximately $43,000 and the second year's assessment will be
approximately $45,150. This action will appropriate the required funds into the Town Centre I
Redevelopment Project Area Fund to be disbursed for Calendor Year 2002 and 2003 from the
I-~
PAGE 3, ITEM NO.:
MEETING DATE: 10/23/01
current 2001-2003 Redevelopment Agency budget. The existing annual appropriation for the
Town Manager's salary ($20,000), DBA advertising ($15,000) and DBA promotions ($15,000)
will be discontinued effective January 1, 2002. (The Town Manager position is synonymous with
the Executive Director of the Downtown Business Association.)
With these actions, the PBID will begin work in January on a range of revitalization, economic
development, and quality of life issues. The PBID is in the process of hiring appropriate staff to
carry out their new mission. Council will continue to be kept informed as the specific programs
begin to take shape.
FISCAL IMPACT
The current two year 2001-2002 Agency budget includes a total of $50,000 annually for
Downtown Business Association expenses (Town Manager salary, advertising and promotions).
Under the PBID reorganization, the existing appropriation will be increased by $18,000 for fiscal
year 2001-2002 and decreased by $4,850 for fiscal year 2002-2003. The net impact for the two
year budget is an increase of $13,150 aver the existing appropriation, and a small decrease in
subsequent years.

BACKGROUND
Council acted to appropriate an initial $500,000 for the Police Headquarters site relocation costs
and relocation consultant contract on July 17, 2001. This appropriation is expected to be
completely expended during October. Settlements have been reached with over half of the 13
businesses, either through relocation settlement offers or the provision of new business sites. Several
larger settlements are now pending. In order to proceed with the remaining relocation settlements,
an additional appropriation for costs associated with the relocation is necessary. Eligible funds from
the Redevelopment Agency's 2000 Tax Allocation Bonds and from the available fund balance in the
Public Facilities Development Impact Fee Fund will be into Capital Improvement Project PS 149 for
this purpose.
RECOMMENDATION
Approve Joint Resolution appropriating $500,000 from unexpended Redevelopment Agency
2000 Tax Allocation Bond proceeds in the Merged Project Area Fund and $500,000 from the
available fund balance in the Public Facilities Development Impact Fee Fund into Capital
Improvement Project PS 149 for relocation costs for the new downtown police facility.
BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION
Not applicable.
DISCUSSION
Relocation of 13 businesses in the commercial property located at the southeast carner of Fourth
Avenue and "F" Street is currently underway. Of these, the Agency has settled or is in the process of
expediting relocation of eight businesses and has settlements or relocations pending with the five
c:2-(

MEETING DATE: 10/23/01
remaining businesses. Among the remaining businesses, two settlements are expected to be quite
large. In order to continue, an additional appropriation is necessary to fund negotiated relocation
costs. The additional appropriation of $1,000,000 has been set based on expected total costs for
comparable relocation projects. Actual costs may be higher or lower.
The relocation process has been reasonably smooth. Initial ninety, sixty and thirty day notices to
vocate have been sent out. All businesses are expected to vacate by November 15, 2001. In
addition, two (2) month-to-month tenants located in the EI Dorado Building (South Boy Community
Services and Lowell Blankford, Esq.) have either moved or are in the process of moving. Demolition
is expected to get underway in December.
Funding for relocation will continue to be provided by on advance from the Redevelopment Agency's
2000 Tax Allocation Bond (TAB) proceeds, and from the available fund balance in the Public
Facilities Impact Fee Fund.
FISCAL IMPACT
Funding of up to $1,000,000 will be drown down from CIP PS149. The initial source of funding
is the Redevelopment Agency 2000 Tax Allocation Bond proceeds and Public Facilities
Development Impact Fees. There will be no direct impact on the General Fund. Other potential
redevelopment and revitalization efforts that potentially could be funded from the 2000 Tax
Allocation Bond proceeds may be delayed or eliminated with this action.

RECOMMENDATION: That the Redevelopment Agency and City Council adopt the resolutions
authorizing the Chula Vista Nature Center to apply for grant funds from the
State of California and appointing the Nature Center Director as the City's
agent to execute related agreements with the State of California if a grant is
awarded.
The Chula Vista Nature Center has been nominated by Assemblymember Vargas to compete
for funding from the Urban Recreation and Cultural Centers, Museums and Facilities for Wildlife
Education or Environmental Education Grant Program. Resolutions of the Redevelopment
Agency and the City Council authorizing the Nature Center's grant application and designating
the agency's representative are required elements of the submittal.
BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: None
DISCUSSION:
The Urban Recreation and Cultural Centers, Museums and Facilities for Wildlife Education or
Environmental Education Grant Program (URCC) under the Safe Neighborhood Parks, Clean
Water, Clean Air, and Coastal Protection Bond Act of 2000 is intended to enhance, develop and
rehabilitate urban recreational centers, museums and facilities for wildlife or environmental
education in urban areas throughout California.
Under the URCC program description, it is clear that the Nature Center's CIP project (GG175) to
replace and reinterpret the educational exhibit components pertaining to San Diego Bay and
wetland habitat conservation ("Project") is eligible for funding consideration. Although the
original nomination proposal included a request for $50,000 in assistance, the State has
informed us that the City's official application could request a higher level of funding if needed.
Staff has estimated that the cost of the project will be approximately $500,000. Although the
grant proposal is still being written, the request is being structured to indicate need up to
$250,000, but offers a menu of support options from $25,000 to $250,000. This has worked well
for State grant proposals in the past. This will be a very competitive process with proposals
totaling over $450 million for $8 million in available funding.
...3- /
Item#:
Meeting Date: 10/23/01
The URCC guidelines require the applicant's submittal to include a resolution of its governing
body which:
1. Approves the filing of an application for local assistance from the URCC; and
2. Certifies that the Applicant has or will have sufficient funds to operate and maintain the
Project; and
3. Certifies that the Applicant has reviewed, understands and agrees to the General
Provisions contained in the Contract; and .
4. Appoints an agent to conduct all negotiations, execute and submit all documents
including, but not limited to applications, agreements, payment requests, which may be
necessary for the completion of the project.
It is proposed that the Nature Center Director, Daniel D. Beintema, be designated as the agent
for this project. Staff would, of course, return to the City Council for appropriation of the grant
funds and processing of any required documents.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact created by this action. If the grant is awarded in the future, the City
could realize revenues to fund a portion of this project where only partial funding currently
exists.

BACKGROUND
The Metropolitan Area Advisory Committee (MMC), a local non-profit community assistance
organization, is proposing to rehabilitate and re-use the commercial building located at 1351- 1395
Third Avenue, near the corner of Quintard Street (see locator map attached as Exhibit C ta OPA).
The building was formerly occupied by the San Diego County Social Services Department and the
Jerome's Furniture Store. The MMC Project proposes to use the 73,OOO-square foot building for
the establishment of a Community Center which will house a variety of community-oriented services
as described in the body of this report.
The land uses proposed to be located within the Community Center ore listed as unclassified and
therefore require the issuance of an administrative Special Use Permit, which the Zoning
Administrator has processed and issued. The rehabilitation and remodeling of the building's
4-1
PAGE 2, ITEM NO.:
MEETING DATE: 04/18/00
interior and exterior require the MMC Project to enter into an Owner Participation Agreement
with the Redevelopment Agency. The City's Environmental Review Coordinator conducted on
Initial Study on the proposed project pursuont to the provisions of the Colifornia Environmental
Quality Act and determined that the proposed Project would not have si!gnificant impacts on the
environment and recommended adoption of Mitigated Negative Declaration IS-01-061.
Since the proposed project is within the Southwest Redevelopment Project Area, the environmental
document and the Owner Participation Agreement (which includes the design plans and a list of
conditions) are being presented to the Redevelopment Agency for consideration and approval.
Hearina Reauirement
MMC has submitted to the California Statewide Communities Development Authority (CSCDA) an
application for the financing of the project in an amount not to exceed $8,500,000 of bond
obligations.
CSCDA is a joint exercise of powers authority consisting of numerous California cities, counties and
special districts, including the City of Chula Vista. The CSCDA pursuant to its Joint Exercise of
Powers Agreement is authorized to assist in the financing of facilities for non-profit public benefit
organizations, including the Applicant. In order to initiate such a financing under Federal and State
Law, the City of Chula Vista must (i) conduct a public hearing (Tax and Equity Fiscal Responsibility
Act or "TEFRA Hearing.") to give the affected community an opportunity to comment on the tax-
exempt financing for the MMC facilities and (ii) approve the CSCDA's issuance of indebtedness.
Therefore, although the CSCDA will be the issuer of the tax-exempt obligations for MMC and the
City will have no liability or obligation in connection with the financing, the financing of the project
cannot proceed without the public hearing and approval of the local governing body.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that:
1) The Redevelopment Agency approve the resolution adopting the Mitigated Negative
Declaration and approving, subject to conditions, the Owner Participation Agreement for the
rehabilitation and re-use of a commercial building at 1351- 1395 Third Avenue.
2) That the City Council conduct the public hearing regarding the financing of facilities for the
Metropolitan Area Advisory Committee, Inc. by the CSCDA and
3) That the City Council adopt the resolution approving the issuance, sale and delivery of tax
exempt and taxable obligations to help finance the development of the project.
BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION
The Resource Conservation Commission (RCC) reviewed the Initial Study 01-61, determined it
was adequate and recommended that the associated Mitigated Negative Declaration for the
4-;:)..
PAGE 3, ITEM NO.:
MEETING DATE: 04/18/00
Project be adopted. Additionolly, the RCC recommended that the Applicant install a solid waste
reduction plan.
DISCUSSION
Site Characteristics
The site for the proposed project is located mid-block on the east side of Third Avenue between
Palomar Street and Quintard Street. It is located within one of the City's commercial zones,
adjacent to residential areas. The subject site is approximately 5.79 acres in area and contains a
73,000-square foot building currently vacant but formerly occupied by the ~an Diego County Social
Services and the Jerome's Furniture Store. Another small building (1,764 square feet) is located at
the north-end of the lot and houses a fast food restaurant (Tacos EI Gordo). The site is fully
developed with site improvements such as a paved parking lot, lighting, Itmdscaped areas, and a
wall on the east side separating the buildings from the residential properties to the east. The
surrounding properties are fully developed with the following uses:
North: Retail Commercial
South: Retail Commercial
East: Multi-family Residential
West: Retail Commercial (across Third Avenue)
land Use and Zonina
The current General Plan and Zoning designations are Retail Commi3rcial (CR) and Central
Commercial (CC), respectively. The proposed uses for the site are considered unclassified uses,
which require the issuance of an administrative Special Use Permit (SUb pursuant to the City's
Zoning Ordinance and the Southwest Redevelopment Plan. The proposed Ibuilding remodeling and
exterior façade improvements must go through the Design Review proce$. Because of the simple
nature of the proposed Project and due to the Applicant's need to have thei SUP by mid-October for
financial reasons, the SUP was issued by the Zoning Administrator, as permitted by the Zoning
Ordinance. Since the estimated valuation of the proposed Project is more! than $20,000 (pursuant
to the Southwest Redevelopment Plan), the design plans must be consid~red for approval by the
Redevelopment Agency through an OPA.
Proiect Description
The proposed project consists of the rehabilitation of a vacant furnitur~ warehouse and County
Welfare Services building for use as a vocational high school, day ca~e, social health services
office and associated administrative office use and storage area. The MMc Center is proposed
to include the following specific activities:
Head Start Child Development Center

Proposed Renovation
The rehabilitation and re-use of the Property involves the renovqtion of the building's
interior/exterior, and the improvement of the site's parking lot. The buil~ing's interior space will
be reconfigured to accommodate and facilitate the operations of the varibus programs described
above. This will include repairing and upgrading damaged walls, roof aind ceilings; constructing
new and upgrading exiting restroom facilities; upgrading electrical systems to meet the needs of
the new uses; upgrading the air-conditioning and heating systems and interior lighting fixtures.
The building's exterior walls will be upgraded in conformance with a net architectural design to
provide for substantial beautification of the existing structures. Rodriguez & Simon, a local
architectural firm, prepared the design drawings (attached to the OPA), v-.1hich provide a variety of
design elements intended to change the building's plain "box" appea;ance and make it look
more artistic. Some of the architectural elements include:
. Four main entryways architecturally different through the combinþtion of different colors,
artistic shaded facades, and signage;
. New light fixtures along building columns to break the horizortal visual effect of the
length of the building; :
. An artistic façade above the entry to the Community Charter Hi¡jh School to identify the
main entry to the educational activities; and
. 3-D artistic figurines along the wall between the Child Developm~nt Center entryway and
the Community Charter High School. I
The existing parking lot and exterior grounds facing Third Avenue will be upgraded through a
variety of landscape and hardscape elements, which includes the followin~:
. an 8,OOO-sq. ft. playground with state-of-the-art equipment imn(1ediately in front of the
Child Development Center Main entryway; :
. a pedestrian corridor along the walkway between the Child! Development Center's
playground and the Community charter High School's entryway, i¡'cluding outdoor eating
tables and benches;
. an "Avenida" pathway leading from Third Avenue t the school's ~oolWay lined with trees
and prominent landscaping to buffer the traffic from the parking l<I>t;
. enhanced landscape materials throughout, including a berm alc:~ng the perimeter of the
parking lot facing the Third Avenue and Quintard Street corridors.
Public Forum
As part of the processing of the proposed project, Community Dev$lopment staff and the
Applicant held a public forum at the Otay Community Center buildin~ (located next to Otay
Elementary School and the Otay Recreation Center) to present the proposed project to the
community and hear comments or concerns. Notice (in English and Sp,imish) of the forum was
4- S-
PAGE 6, ITEfA NO.:
MEETIN~ DATE: 04/18/00
sent two weeks in advance to all property owners and tenonts within a~ approximate radius of
900 feet from the subject site (the legal requirement is for a 300 feet radius). Only two persons
attended the meeting and no comments were received. No correspo~dence or inquiries have
been received by staff on this project. As port of the processing of the; Special Use Permit and
Design Review by the Zoning Administrator, a public notice was sent to all property owners within
500 feet from all side of the subject property informing them that the, City was reviewing the
design plans and the requested permit. No comments were rec",ived by staff. It should be noted
that no public hearing is necessary for the Agency to consider and appro~e an OPA
Environmental Review
The City's Environmental Review Coordinator conducted and initial studYI of the proposed project
and determined that project did not require the preparation of an Envirqnmental Impact Report.
However, the Coordinator determined that the implementation of th~ project would require
certain mitigation measures in order to keep potential impacts below, a level of significance.
Among the mitigation measures are th", following:
. Removal, by a consultant certified by the State of California, of lany asbestos and lead-
based paint found as part of the demolition work. '
. Traffic measures (such crosswalks, restrictions of driveway use, I and limitation of truck
traffic maneuvers around the site) intended to make traffic circulation safer.
. Compliance with requirements of the Clean Water Act, the I!tegional Water Quality
Control Board, and NPDES.
With the Implementation of these mitigation measures, the project's imp~cts will be kept below a
level of significance. The Applicant has agreed and these measures hav~ been incorporated into
the Project.

significant enhancement to the site. The proposed land use will re-activ te an existing structure
and will provide a variety of beneficial programs for the community, a d will bring additional
activity to this part of the City. Based on this assessment, staff believes this project benefits the
area and, thus, will help to implement the goals and objectives of the S uthwest Redevelopment
Plan. Therefore, staff recommends approval of the OPA and the propos d plans being proposed
by the MMC Project. !
Proposed Financina of Proiect
I
It is currently ",stimated that the proposed project cost will be appr~XimatelY $8.6 million.
Sources of funding for the Project will include bond proceeds and convent onalloans.
,
4- ~
PAGE 7, ITE~ NO.:
MEETIN~ DATE: 04/18/00
As part of its financing plan, MAAC has requested the California, Statewide Communities
Development Authority (CSCDA), issue bond obligations in an amount no¡!. to exceed $8,500,000.
The CSCDA is a joint exercise of powers authority consisting of numerous f:;alifornia cities, counties
and special districts, including the City of Chula Vista. CSCDA pursucimt to its Amended and
Restated Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement is authorized to assist in the fi~ancing of the facilities to
be constructed by MAAc.
In order to initiate this financing request, the City of Chula Vista must: (1) ~onduct a public hearing
(TEFRA hearing) on the proposed financing and; (2) approve CSCDA's i~suance of indebtedness.
Therefore, although CSCDA will be issuer of the obligations for MAAt, the financing cannot
proceed without the approval of the City of Chula Vista. The City will have ,no liability or obligations
in connection with the bonds.
MAAC shall be responsible for the payment of all present and future co~s in connection with the
issuance of the obligations, including, but not limited to, any fees and xpenses incurred by the
City in anticipation of the issuance of the obligations. The payment of t~ principal, prepayment
premium, if any, and purchase price of and interest on the obligati ns shall be solely the
responsibility of MAAc. The obligations shall not constitute a debt or o~ligation of the City and
the adoption of the proposed resolution is solely for the purpose of meeing the requirements of
Federal tax law and the Government Code. I
FISCAL IMPACT
Since the Developer is a non-profit organization, the acquisition of the s~bject property will more
than likely cause its removal from the tax rolls, eliminating approximately,$3,500 in tax-increment
revenue from that property currently accruing to the Redevelopment Agency!fund.
Neither the City nor the Agency would be under any obligation to repay the! bond indebtedness or to
incur any costs related to the issuance of the bonds. I

The Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program for this project ensures adequate
implementation of mitigation for the following potential impacts(s):
I. Air Quality and Hazards; and
2. Transportation/Circulation; and
3. Drainage/Water.
MONITORING PROGRAM
Due to the nature of the environmental issues identified, the Mitigation Compliance Coordinator
shall be the Environmental Review Coordinator for the City of Chu]a Vista. The applicant shall
be responsible to ensure that the conditions of the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program
are met to the satisfaction of the Environmental Review Coordinator. The applicant shall provide
evidence in written form confirming compliance with the mitigation measures specified in
MND/IS-0]-061 to the Environmental Review Coordinator. The Environmental Review
Coordinator will thus provide the ultimate verification that the mitigation measures have been
accomplished.
Table ], Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program, lists the mitigation measures listed in
Section E, Mitigation Necessary to Avoid Significant Effects, of the Mitigated Negative
Declaration, which will be implemented as part of the project. In order to determine if the
applicant has implemented the measure, the method and timing of verification are identified,
along with the City department or agency responsible for monitoring/verifying that the applicant
has completed each mitigation measure. Space for the signature of the verifying person and the
date of inspection is provided in the last column.

I. LAND USE AND PLANNING. Would the
proposal:
a) Cont1ict with general plan designation or 0 0 0 181
zoning?
b) Cont1ict with applicable environmental plans or 0 0 0 181
policies adopted by agencies with jurisdiction
over the project?
c) Affect agricultural resources or operations (e.g., 0 0 0 181
impacts to soils or farmlands, or impacts from
incompatible land uses)?
d) Disrupt or divide the physical arrangement of 0 0 0 181
an established community (including a low-
income or minority community)?
Comments: The 5. 79:!:-acre site is located on the east side of Third A venue between East Palomar Street
and Quintard Street. The site is currently developed with a vacant 71,991 square-foot building and fast-
food Mexican restaurant. The vacant building once contained a furniture warehouse and the County
Health and Welfare administrative offices. The proposed project consists of the rehabilitation of the
existing building with the Metropolitan Area Advisory Committee Center (The MAAC Project). The
MAAC Project is a non-profit community program. The MAAC Center proposes using this space for a
Charter high school initially with 90 students up to 832 students by 2005, a Head Start Day Care with 115
children, and 32,000 square feet of office space. The MAAC Office area will include a Weatherization
Program (home-energy efficiency program), a Vocational Training Center (i.e. General Construction
Training) and a SociallHealth ServIces Office. A Driving Under the Int1uence (DUI) program will be

located within the Health Services Office. The existing Mexican restaurant will continue in its current
operation. The required discretionary applications include a Special Use Permit and Design Review. The
maximum height of the building is one-story with architectural extensions of38 feet; the maximum height
permitted by the Zoning Ordinance is 45 feet.
The proposed community service facility is consistent with the CC (Central Commercial Zone) zoning
designation, CR (Retail Commercial) General Plan designation, and the city's environmental plans and
policies. The site is located in the Southwest Redevelopment Area. The proposed project is a community
service facility similar to the previous use, Social ServiceslWelfare Department.
The site is on the east side of Third Avenue between East Palomar Avenue and Quintard Street.
Surrounding land uses to the north, south and west are retail commercial ànd to the east multi-family
residential. The proposed project would not result in significant land use and planning impacts to the
physical arrangement of the established community in the surrounding area.
Mitigation: No mitigation is required.
II. PO PULA nON AND HOUSING. Would the
proposal:
a) Cumulatively exceed ol1ìcial regional or local 0 0 0 181
population projections?
b) Induce substantial growth in an area either 0 0 0 181
directly or indirectly (e.g., through projects in
an undeveloped area or extension of major
infrastructure)?
c) Displace existing housing, especially affordable 0 0 0 181
housing?
Comments: The project is surrounded by existing commercial and multi-family residential development
and does not involve an extcnsion ofpublic facilities that would induce substantial growth. No existing
housing units would be displaced. The proposed project, community service facility, is consistent with the
General Plan and would not exceed the regional or local population projections.
Mitigation: No mitigation is required.
III. GEOPHYSICAL. Would the proposal result in or
expose people to potential impacts involving:
a) Unstable earth conditions or changes in 0 0 0 181
geologic substructures?
b) Disruptions, displacements, compaction or 0 0 0 181
overcovering of the soil?
c) Change in topography or ground surface relief 0 0 0 181
features?

d) The destruction, covering or modification of 0 0 0 181
any unique geologic or physical features?
e) Any increase in wind or water erosion of soils, 0 0 0 181
either on or off the site?
f) Changes in deposition or erosion of beach 0 0 0 181
sands, or changes in siltation, deposition or
erosion, which may modify the channel of a
river or stream or the bed of the ocean or any
bay inlet or lake?
g) Exposure of people or property to geologic 0 0 0 181
hazards such as earthquakes, landslides, mud
slides, ground failure, or similar hazards?
Comments: There are no known geophysical conditions present that would expose people to geologic or
earth hazards. The site is not within a mapped Earthquake Fault Zone; the Rose Canyon Fault Zone is
approximately 20 miles to the north, and the La Nacion earthquake fault is approximately four miles to the
east. Compliance with the Uniform Building Code requirements would avoid potentially significant
geologic impacts.
The site is 5.79 acres and currently covered with structures, paving and landscaped improvements. The lot
coverage of the new facility would remain the same. The project site is essentially flat and no grading is
proposed for preparation of the site for the renovation of the existing building. No sib'l1ificant effects such
as erosion, sedimentation, change in topography, etc. would result from renovation of the building and
sIte.
Best Management Practices (BMPs) are required to be implemented during and after construction to
prevent erosion and sedimentation in the downstream storm drain system.
Mitigation: No mitigation measures are required.
IV. WATER. Would the proposal result in:
a) Changes in absorption rates, drainage patterns, 0 0 181 0
or the rate and amount of surface runoff?
b) Exposure of people or property to water related 0 0 0 181
hazards such as flooding or tidal waves?
c) Discharge into surface waters or other alteration 0 0 0 181
of surface water quality (e.g., temperature,
dissolved oxygen or turbidity)?
d) Changes in the amount of surface water in any 0 0 0 181
water body?

V. AIR QUALITY. Would the proposal:
a) Violate any air quality standard or contribute to 0 0 0 181
an existing or projected air quality violation?
b) Expose sensitive receptors to pollutants? 0 0 181 0
c) Alter air movement, moisture, or temperature, 0 0 0 181
or cause any change in climate, either locally or
regionally?
d) Create objectionable odors? 0 0 0 181
e) Create a substantial increase in stationary or 0 0 0 181
non-stationary sources of air emissions or the
deterioration of ambient air quality?
Comments: The proposed project is consistent with the City's Air Quality Element of the Genera] Plan
and Regional Air Quality Modal. The Regional Air Quality Modal is based upon local jurisdiction General
Plan and associated land uses. The vehicular emissions resulting from 3,498 ADTs (total proposed) is
within the adopted General Plan and Regional Air Quality Modal. The renovation of the building and
project site would result in negligible short-term construction emissions. Operation of the community
service facility would not result in odor impacts.
The proposed project includes minor demolition and renovation of the existing building. According to the
Phase I Study prepared by Building Analytics, dated October 2,000, there is limited Asbestos Containing
Materials (ACMs) and lead-based paint readings on the building. The proposed project could produce
significant air quality impacts by the release of asbestos containing materials (ACMs), unless mitigated to
a level ofless than significance.
No significant air quality impacts would OCcur as a result of the proposed project.
Mitigation: Mitigation measures listed in Section XIX would reduce impacts to a less than significant
level.
VI. TRANSPORT A TlON/ClRCULA TION. Would
the proposal result ill:
a) Increased vehicle trips or traffic congestion? 0 0 181 0
b) Hazards to safety from design features (e.g., 0 0 0 181
sharp curves or dangerous intersections) or
incompatible uses (e.g., farm equipment)?
c) Inadequate emergency access or access to 0 0 0 181

g) Rail, waterborne or air traffic impacts? 0 0 0 181
h) A "large project" under the Congestion 0 0 181 0
Management Program? (An equivalent of 2400
or more average daily vehicle trips or 200 or
more peak-hour vehicle trips.)
Comments: The existing average daily trips are ],040 ADTs per day ftom the existing Mexican
Restaurant. The proposed project will generate a net increase of2,458 average daily trips (ADTs), totaling
3,498 ADTs for the site. Primary access roads to the project site are from Third Avenue, Palomar Street,
Orange Avenue and Main Street. Quintard Street serves as a street segment along the south edge of the
property site. Third A venue and Palomar Street are classified as Class I Collector streets. Orange Avenue
and Main Street are classified as 4-lane streets. No additional roadway facilities are required to serve the
site. According to the Engineering Department, the primary access roads are adequate to serve the project.
In accordance with City Engineering requirement, a traffic impact analysis is required for projects that
trigger 2400 or more daily vehicle trips. Accordingly, Darnell & Associates, Inc., prepared a Traffic Study
dated August 30, 200] and revised September 12, 200 I. Daily, morning peak hour and afternoon peak
hour trips generated by the Vocational High School, the Day Care Center, and the Mexican Restaurant
were based on the Trip Generation Rates published by the San Diego Assoeiation of Governments
(SANDAG). The trip generation for the SociallHealth Services (DUI Program) was based on the operation
of the existing SociallHealth Services (DUI Program) located only a few blocks away. The numbcr of
clients and staff to remain the same.
According to the Traffic Analysis, to assess the worst-case impacts associated with the proposed project,
the years 2002-2003 and the years 2005-2006 from the five-year project projection were used. The first
time frame, 2002-2003, includes the Social/Health Services facility (DUI Program) and an enrollment of
472 students at the Vocational High School. The second time frame, 2005-2006, includes the maximum
projected student enrollment of the Vocational High School, 832 students. These years are the worst-case
traffic scenario for the proposed project.
Between the years 2002-2003, the proposed project will generate 2,458 average daily trips, 313 AM peak
hour trips, and 4] 7 PM peak hour trips over the trip generation of the current use of the site. Between the
years 2005 and 206, the proposed project will generate an additional 1,892 average daily trips, 352 AM
peak hour trips, and 247 PM peak hour trips over the trip generation of the current use of the site.
According to the Traffic Analysis, the traffic generated by the proposed project will not significantly
impact the primary access streets nor adjacent street segment, Quintard Street. All project access points
off of Third A venue, Palomar Street and Quintard Street were adequate to accommodate project traffic.
The existing and existing plus project conditions will not exceed the City's Level-of-Service (LOS) "c"
threshold.

According to the Traffic Analysis prepared by Darnell and Associates, it was noted that a potential
pedestrian hazard exists from the parking lot to the Day Care entrance. In order to increase the safety of
pedestrians from the parking lot to the Day Care Center, a striped crosswalk shall be installed along the
pavement in front of the Day Care Center building entrance. Additionally, in order to provide smoother
traffic integration from the project site onto Third Avenue it was recommended that the southern most
driveway be restricted to right-inlright-out only movements and the northern driveway operate as an exit
only driveway. These requirements will mitigate the pedestrian safety and traffic circulation impacts to
levels of less than significance.
The parking requirement is based on the operation profile, square footage and studentslemployees of the
schools, office and training components of the project. The total existing on-site parking is 380 spaces and
the total parking upon completion of the project is 298 spaces; the proposed parking meets the City's
parking requirement of 197 spaces. There are 10] surplus parking spaces available during peak hours.
According to the Traffic Analysis prepared by Darnell and Associates, to improve truck turning
movements within the project site parking spaces should be removed along the northwest and northeast
corners of the building. The loss of seven (7) parking spaces will not create a significant impact to the
project.
Short-term traffic impacts would consist of construction trucks required to redevelop the site. The project
is consistent with the criteria established in the City's General P]an Traffic Element.
Mitigation: Mitigation measures listed in Section XIX would reduce impacts to a less than significant
level.
VII. BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES. Would the
proposal result in impacts to:
a) Endangered, sensitive species, species of 0 0 0 t8I
concern or species that are candidates for
listing?
b) Locally designated species (e.g., heritage 0 0 0 t8I
trees)?
c) Locally designated natural communities (e.g., 0 0 0 t8I
oak forest, coastal habitat, etc.)?
d) Wetland habitat (e.g., marsh, riparian and 0 0 0 t8I
vernal pool)?
e) Wildlife dispersal or migration corridors? 0 0 0 181
t) Affect regional habitat preservation planning 0 0 0 181
efforts?
Comments: The site is fully developed and is located in an urbanized area. There are no sensitive plant
or animal species on-site. No biological impacts would result from the proposed use of the site.
Mitigation: No mitigation measures are required.
VIII. ENERGY AND MINERAL RESOURCES.

a) Conflict with adopted energy conservation 0 0 0 III
plans?
b) Use non-renewable resources in a wasteful and 0 0 0 III
inefficient manner?
c) If the site is designated for mineral resource 0 0 0 III
protection, will this project impact this
protection?
Comments: The proposed community service facility does not conflict with the recently adopted CO,
Reduction Plan. The project proponent will maintain existing curb, gutter, and sidewalk along the Third
Avenue and replace uplifted sections of the sidewalk along Third Avenue and Quintard Street. Third
Avenue and Quintard Street frontages will provide for pedestrian circulation into the project area.
The existing transit lines that include Routes 7]2, 702 and 70], will serve students and clients of the
MAAC Center.
The proposed project is subject to compliance with Energy Requirements of the Uniform Building Code
and therefore, should not result in the use of non-renewable resources in a wasteful and inefficient
manner. The project is not located in an area designated for mineral resource protection as defined in the
City's General Plan.
Mitigation: No mitigation measures are required.
IX. HAZARDS. Would the proposal involve:
a) A risk of accidental explosion or release of 0 0 0 III
hazardous substances (including, but not limited
to: petroleum products, pesticides, chemicals or
radiation)?
b) Possible interference with an emergency 0 0 0 III
response plan or emergency evacuation plan?
c) The creation of any health hazard or potential 0 0 0 III
health hazard?
d) Exposure of people to existing sources of 0 0 181 0
potential health hazards?
e) Increased fire hazard in areas with flammable 0 0 0 III
brush, b'fass. or trees?
Comments: Building Analytics, completed a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Study for the
MAAC Project, dated October 2000. The purpose is to assess the potential for contamination at the subject
property caused by hazardous materials. The report indicated underground storage tanks (fuel and waste
oil) were formerly located on-site from earlier uses. Prior uses included tire and repair store, gasoline
service station. furniture outlet, retail store and small restaurant. Asbestos containing materials (ACMs)
and lead-based paint were found on the existing building.

The consultant recommended a Phase II in order to confirm, if any, soil contamination, removal of
contaminated soil and Underground Storage Tanks (USTs) still existed. Confumation of this remediation
was not discovered during the preparation of the Phase I by the consultant. A closure lettercrom the Lead
Agency, The County of San Diego Department of Environment a] Health Services (DEHS) is required to
indicate that the site has been cleared up of any contamination. Additional research by the applicant and
the City provided closure letters, dated in ] 987 and] 993, cram the County of San Diego Department of
Environmental Health Services (DEHS) Site Assessment Section indicating the site has been adequately
mitigated of all soil contamination and storage tanks removed. The Regional Water Quality Control Board
concurred with the determination ofthe County that the site had been adequately mitigated. According to
a letter from the Building Analytics, dated August 30, 200 I, the property has been properly remediated
according to regulatory standards and no further investigations are required.
The MAAC Community Center includes a Charter High School with vocational training in health
sciences, computer software operations, hardware repair and general construction (i.e., masonry training).
The applicant is required to be in compliance with the County of San Diego Department of Environmental
Health Services and Fire Warden regulations for proper storage of common hazardous substances (i.e.
paint, cleaning solvents).
According to the Phase I Environmental Site Assessment limited levels of asbestos containing materials
(ACMs) and limited lead-based paint exist. Demolition of the existing exterior façade of the building and
interior renovation could result in the release of airborne asbestos containing materials (ACMs). Release
of airborne asbestos fibers would result in a significant health hazard unless mitigated to a level of less
than significance.
Demolition of the exterior façade of the building and interior renovation could result in the release ofIead-
based materials. Release of lead-based paint materials would result in a significant health hazard unless
mitigated to a level of less than significance.
Mitigation: Mitigation measurcs listed in Section XIX would reduce impacts to a less than significant
level.
X. NOISE. Wol/ld the proposal resl/lt in:
a) Increases in existing noise levels? 0 0 0 181
b) Exposure of people to severe noise levels? 0 0 0 181
Comments: The proposed hours of operation are 7:00 A.M. to 10:00 P.M. (various shifts Monday
through Saturday). The City ofChula Vista Municipal Code (§]9.68.030) establishes commercial land use
noise standards of 65 dB during the hours of 7:00 A.M. and 10:00 P.M. on weekdays (8:00 A.M. to
10:00 P.M. on weekends) and 60 dB during the hours of 10:00 P.M. and 7:00 A.M. on weekdays (10:00
P.M. to 8:00 A.M. on weekends). The proposed project is in conformance with the Noise Elementl
Performance Thresholds of the General Plan.
There is an existing multiple-family residential use to the east of the project site. The proposed project
area includes an exterior daycare playground and masonry training area. These exterior uses are
separated from the residential area by a 6-8 foot high masonry wall. The proposed daycare playground is
located along the west side of the building, approximately ]oo-feet from the residential area. The masonry
training area is along the south side of the building approximately I] O-feet from the residential area. The

masonry training will only Occur a limited number of weeks during the construction cycle. The masonry
training will not require large cement trucks and all mortar will be mixed by hand or with a small, hand-
operated mixer.
The proposed project shall be required to comply with the adopted noise standards. No significant noise
impacts will occur as a result of the operation of the MAAC facility and associated programs due to the
separation of the uses, building buffer, existing masonry wall and use of small equipment offsetting any
noise impacts to adjacent residential use.
Mitigation: No mitigation measures are required.
XI. PUBLIC SERVICES. Would the proposal have an
effect upon, or result in a need for new or altered
government services in any of the following areas:
a) Fire protection? 0 0 0 I!I
b) Police protection? 0 0 0 I!I
c) Schools? 0 0 0 I!I
d) Maintenance of public facilities, including 0 0 0 I!I
roads?
e) Other governmental services? 0 0 0 I!I
Comments: No new or altered public facilities would be required to serve the proposed community
service facility. No significant impacts to public services would result.
Mitigation: No mitigation measures are required.
XII. Thresholds. Will the proposal adversely impact
the City's Threshold Standards?
As described below, the proposed project does not result in significant impacts to any of the
Threshold Standards.
a) Fire/EMS 0 0 0 I!I
The Threshold Standards requires that fire and medical units must be able to respond to calls
within 7 minutes or less in 85% of the cases and within 5 minutes or less in 75% of the cases.
The City of Chula Vista has indicated that this threshold standard will be met, since the
nearest fire station is two miles away and would be associated with a four-minute response
time. The proposed project would_comply with this Threshold Standard.
Comments: The Fire/EMS threshold would be met as reported by the Fire Department. Therefore, no
significant impacts to fire services are anticipated.
Mitigation: No mitigation measures are required.
b) Police 0 0 0 I!I
The Threshold Standards require that police units must respond to 84% of Priority 1 calls
