Phase 2c March 2010. Conduct site work, including retaining walls and landscape
associated with remodeled church building.
Phase 3 February 2014. Construct new multi-purpose building. Renovate and construct
additions to the school facilities.
C. Compliance with Zoning and Plans
The site is located in the RI (Single-Family Residential) Zone and RLM (Low-Medium
Density Residential) General Plan land use designation. The project is consistent with the
applicable zoning regulations and the Chula Vista General Plan. The project requires the
approval of Design Review by the Design Review Committee and a Conditional Use Permit
by the Planning Commission.
D. Public Comments
On August 16, 2005, a Notice of Initial Study was circulated to property owners and
residents within 500-foot radius of the proposed project site. The public comment period
ended August 26, 2005. Staff received one verbal communication regarding whether or not
the proposed project would extend beyond the current property boundaries and requesting a
clarification of the design of the project. These issues have been addressed in the attached
Initial Study Checklist and the technical studies noted below.
E. Identii3cation of Environmental Effects
An Initial Study conducted by the City of Chula Vista (including the attached Environmental
Checklist form) determined that the proposed project may have potential significant
environmental impacts however; revisions to the project have been made or mitigation
measures have been agreed to by the project proponent to reduce the impacts to a less than
significant level. This Mitigated Negative Declaration has been prepared in accordance with
Section 15070 of the State CEQA Guidelines.
Air ualit
Short-Term hnpaets
The proposed project will result in a minor increase in air pollutants during the demolition
and construction phases of the project. Fugitive dust would be created during demolition,
grading and construction activities. Air quality impacts resulting from construction-related
operations are considered short-term in duration since construction-related activities are
temporary. Dust control measures required during construction operations would be
implemented in accordance with the rules and regulations of the County of San Diego Air
3
Pollution Control District (APCD) and the California Air Resources Board. The mitigation
measures contained in Section F below would mitigate short-term construction-related air
quality impacts to below a level of significance.
Long-Term Impacts
The project site is located within the San Diego Air Basin (SDAB). According to the Traffic
Study prepared by Darnell & Associates, Inc., weekday traffic generated by the proposed
expansion would be minimal, resulting in 57 new daily traffic trips. Two (2) of the new trips
occur during the morning peak hour and four (4) during the evening peak hour. The project
does not propose additional school activities or increases in the student population that would
increase peak hour traffic. Therefore, project generated traffic would not be significant or
result in adverse air quality impacts. The church/school land use has been included in
existing regional air quality projects and plans and does not conflict with or violate any
applicable air quality plans or standards. For these reasons, the proposed project would not
result in any significant long-term local or regional air quality impacts.
Cultural Resources
The proposed project involves partial remodeling of the existing St. Pius X Catholic Church
complex. final Historic Architectural Survey Report (HASR) and Findings of Effect Report
(FOE), Calvin & Associates, August 2005 evaluated the project for historical significance
using criteria outlined in Public Resource Code 5024.1, Title 14 CCR, Section 4852,
California Register of Historical Resources (CRHR).
"The proposed changes to the St. Pius X Catholic Church complex include alterations or
demolition of the main church and rectory, the parish hall, offices and school. The main
church and rectory were constructed in 1955 and aze representative of a Modern
interpretation of the Mission Revival style. The HASR and FOE identified these two
buildings as a historic architectural resource that meets Criterion 3 of the CRHR for
cmbodying the distinctive chazacteristics of a type and period of construction.
CF.QA defines a historic resource as a resource that is listed or could potentially be listed in a
local historic resources register whether it has been listed or not. The main church and
rectory are eligible for historic designation on the Chula Vista List of Historic Sites under
Criterion 3 of the CR11R for embodying the distinctive characteristics of a type and period of
construction.
The HASR and FOE assessed the impacts of the proposal and determined that the renovation
and expansion of the St. Pius X Catholic Church complex are considered significant and
would cause a substantial adverse change on a historic architectural resource. Mitigation
measures to reduce the impacts to cultural resources to a level below significance as
recommended in the HASR and FOE are proposed in Section F of this Mitigated Negative
Declaration. Because the project involves a remodel of the church as opposed to demolition,
mitigation measures documenting the existing church building and its relationship to the
complex before, during and after construction through a photographic representation has
been determined to be adequate mitigation.

Geology and Soils
To assess the potential geological and soils impacts of the project, Preliminary Geotechnical
Ir:vestigation Proposed Improvements to Saint Pius Church, 1120 Cuyamaca Avenue, Chula
Vista, California, January 17, 2003, was prepared by Construction Testing & Engineering,
Inc. The results of this analysis are summarized below.
The project site is not located within a mapped Earthquake Fault Zone. In addition, no
known significant or suspected seismic hazards associated with the project site are identified.
According to the geologic study, the main issues that affect the proposed project deal with
the existence of unsuitable surface materials and moderately expansive soil. The submittal of
a final soils report is required prior to issuance of grading and construction permits to
determine final soil conditions and compliance with foundation and pavement
recommendations. In addition, erosion control measures would be identified in conjunction
with the preparation of final grading plans and would be implemented during construction.
The impacts to geology and soils would be reduced to a level below significance provided
compliance with the recommendations and measwes identified in the preliminary
geotechnical report are incorporated into the project design and final grading plan. Please
refer to Section F of this Mitigated Negative Declaration.
I Iazards/Hazardous Materials
/.ead and Asfiestos Removal
The existing structures proposed to be demolished/renovated potentially contain asbestos and
lead-based paint. Therefore, prior to any demolition activities the presence of asbestos and
lead-based paint will be determined and if present, abatement shall be performed by licensed,
registered asbestos and lead abatement contractors in accordance with all applicable local,
state and federal laws and regulations, including San Diego County Air Pollution Control
District Rule 361.145, Standard for Demolition and Renovation. The mitigation measure
contained in Section F below would mitigate potential hazards/hazardous material impacts
associated with the release of asbestos and lead to below a level of significance.
Hydrology and Water Quality
Based upon review of the project, the Engineering Department has determined that there are
no significant issues or impacts regarding the proposed drainage improvements for the
project site. The project proposes the installation of a storm drain filter system, culvert,
backflow preventer, 3-inch PVC drainpipe, 6-inch PVC catch basin and inlets and placement
of appropriate gravel bags or dikes.
As required, the proposed drainage must be directed away from buildings and adjacent
properties. As a standard condition, a final drainage study will be required in conjunction
with the preparation of the project grading plans and must demonstrate that the post-
development peak flow rate does not exceed the pre-development flows. The drainage
improvements as proposed would improve the overall on-site drainage system and
accommodate the proposed project The drainage facilities shall be installed at the time of the
site development to the satisfaction of the City Engineer. No significant impacts to the City s
storm drainage system are anticipated to result from the proposed project.
5
In addition, compliance with the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES)
regulations including the preparation of a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP)
and a Monitoring Program Plan would be required. The implementation of water quality
Best Management Practices (BMPs) would be required in accordance the NPDES General
Permit. Based upon the implementation of standard engineering requirements and
compliance with requirements of the SWPPP and BMPs, water quality impacts would be
reduced to below a level of significance. See Section F of this Mitigated Negative
Declazation.
Noise
To assess the potential noise impacts of the proposed project, a noise study was prepared by
DUDEK & Associates, Inc., entitled Saint Pius X Church Expansion Project -
Environmental Noise Assessment, dated September 1, 2005. The noise assessment analyzed
the project with respect to the regulations contained in Chapter 19.68, Performance Standazds
and Noise Control, of the Chula Vista Municipal Code (noise control ordinance).
Noise associated with the project proposal would include short-term construction noise,
student noise at outdoor playground area, noise from vehicles in the pazking lot, outdoor
mechanical equipment and traffic noise on adjacent streets.
Construction Noire
Pursuant to Section 17.24.050(J) of the Chula Vista Municipal Code, construction work in
residential zones that generates noise disturbing to persons residing or working in the vicinity
is not permitted between 10:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m. Monday through Friday and between
10:00 p.m. and 8:00 a.m. Saturday and Sunday, except when necessary for emergency repairs
required for the health and safety of any member of the community. Due to the presence of
residential development in the surrounding area, this provision of the Municipal Code applies
to the project and would ensure that residents would not be disturbed by construction noise
during the most noise sensitive periods of the day.
Outdoor Plcryground Activity Noise
The project does not propose to increase student enrollment and improvements to the school
facilities would not alter outdoor activities associated with the school. Noise from the
playground area is anticipated to remain unchanged thus having a less than significant
impact.
Parking I,ot Noise
The proposed project contains parking facilities for 243 vehicles including the construction
of new parking spaces along the western perimeter of the site adjacent to existing single-
family residences. "The analysis concluded that the noise level would exceed the City's noise
regulations during the nighttime hours (weekdays - 10:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m., weekends 10:00
p.m. to 8:00 a.m.). The noise impacts associated with the parking lot are considered
significant and mitigation measures are proposed in Section F below.
6
Outdoor Mechanical Equipment Noise
Heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVACj equipment is proposed to be located on the
roofs of the structures. The noise generated by the machinery would vary depending on the
type and size of the mechanical equipment. Based on the preliminary plans and mechanical
equipment list, the noise assessment concluded that noise generated from the HVAC would
exceed the City's noise standards. Noise impacts related to the outdoor mechanical
equipment are considered significant. The mitigation proposed in Section F of this Mitigated
Negative Declaration must be implemented in order for impacts to be reduced to below a
level of significance.
Traff:e Noise
The projected traffic noise impacts associated with increased traffic volumes along East
Naples Street, Cuyamaca Avenue and Emerson Street and at the project site were assessed in
the noise analysis. The report concluded that the minimal increase in traffic volume would
have a less than significant impact on noise.
Tran sportati on/Traffi c
To identity potential traffic impacts associated with the development of the project, Traffic
Impact Analvsis~or Proposed St. Pius X Church Expansion, January 14, 2004, was prepared
by Darnell & Associates Inc. The project does not propose additional school activities or an
increase in student population therefore no increase in weekday pear hour traffic is
anticipated.
The proposed church expansion is projected to generate approximately 57 new average daily
trips (ADTs). The new ADTs include one (1) inbound outbound trip projected to occur
during the morning peak hour and 2 inbound/outbound trips to occur during the evening peak
hour. The nearby intersections of Naples/Hilltop, Naples/Cuyamaca, Emerson/Hilltop and
Emerson/Cuyamaca currently operate at acceptable levels of service (LOS) B or better. The
existing roadway segments that were studied included Naples between Hilltop and
Cuyamaca, Emerson between hilltop and Cuyamaca and Cuyamaca between Naples and
Emerson, all operating at LOS A.
The traffic impact analysis demonstrated that the intersections and street segments operate at
acceptable levels with or without the proposed project. In addition the proposal would have
no significant peak hour impacts to intersections or on nearby roadway segments. The
project currently has adequate access from Cuyamaca Avenue and Naples Street. Internal
circulation would be improved as a result of the proposed building configuration and the
parking lot layout. The access does not generate significant new traffic onto local streets due
to the church expansion.
No significant traffic impacts will result from the proposed church expansion project.
Parking
The project proposes the addition of 67 new parking spaces resulting in a total of 243 parking
spaces to accommodate the church and school facilities. The project applicant has submitted
a seating chart and parking analysis for the proposed sanctuary/auditorium that establishes a
7
seating capacity of 852 within the expanded facility. Based on the proposed seating capacity
a minimum of 243 parking spaces must be provided in accordance with the Chula Vista
Municipal Code. The analysis concluded that the 243 parking spaces as shown on the
proposed site plan would meet the on-site parking ratio and no additional parking would be
necessary. No significant parking impacts will result from the proposed project.
F. Mitigation Necessary to Avoid Significant Impacts

commercial uses. The proposed church and school expansion is compatible with the existing
architectural design and would not degrade the visual character of the project site or its
surroundings therefore no impact would occur.
d) The project proposal includes new lighting facilities in the parking lot including lighting
standards a distance of 70 feet from the west property line adjacent to the residences. The project
shall be required to comply with the light and glare regulations (Section 19.66.100) of the Chula
Vista Municipal Code (CVMC). Compliance with the regulations will ensure that no substantial
glare or light would affect daytime or nighttime views in the surrounding area or onto the
adjacent or nearby residential properties therefore no impact would occur as a result of the
proposed project.

a) The project is located within an urban area that is served by all necessary utilities and service
systems and would not exceed the wastewater treatment requirements of the Regional Water
Quality Control Board. Therefore, a less than significant impact would occur as a result of the
proposed project.
b) See XVI.a. No construction of new water or wastewater treatment facilities or the expansion of
existing facilities would be necessary to serve the project. Development of the project will not
impact existing water or wastewater treatment facilities.
c) No construction of new storm water drainage facilities or expansion of existing facilities would be
necessary as a result of the proposed project. 'fhe project is required to implement Best
Management Practices to prevent pollution of stone drainage systems and comply with the City's
Storm Water Management Requirements therefore environmental impacts would be less than

d) The project site is within the Sweetwater Water District service territory. There is an 8-inch water
main located along the north side of Naples Street, a 6-inch main along the east side of Cuyamaca
Avenue, a 6-inch main along the north side of Emerson Street, and six existing water services for
the property. According to the Sweetwater Authority, based upon the fire flow availability, the
capacity of the existing facilities is adequate to serve the project site. No new or expanded
entitlements are anticipated for the proposed project.

SIGNIFICANCE
a) Does the project have the potential to degrade the ^ ^ ^ ^
quality of the em~irrnunent, substantially reduce the
habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or
wildlife population to drop below self-sustaining
levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or animal
community, reduce the number or restrict the range
of a rare or endangered plant or animal or eliminate
important examples of the major periods of
California history ox prehistory?
b) Does the project have impacts that are individually ^ ^ ^ ^
limited, but cumulatively considerable?
("Cumulatively considerable" means that the
incremental effects of a project are considerable
when dewed va connecton with the effects of past
projects, the effects of other current project, and the
effects ofpxobable fimre projects.)
c) Does the project have envirotunental effects which ^ ^ ^ ^
will cause substantial adverse effects on human
beings, either directly or indirectly?
Comments:
a) The project site is currently developed and located in an established urbanized area within the designated
development area of the adopted Chula Vista MSCP Subarea Plan. However, as discussed in Section E of
the Mitigated Negative Declaration, a historic architectural resource could be impacted by the proposed
development. Appropriate mitigation measures will be implemented to reduce impacts to below a level of
significance.
b) As described in the Mitigated Negative Declaration, sig~»licant direct project impacts would be mitigated
to below a level of significance through the required mitigation measures. When the proposed project is
considered in connection with the effects of past projects, other current projects, and probable future
projects, no cumulative considerable impacts have been identified and none are contemplated.
c) See Mitigated Negative Declaration, Section E. Potential impacts to humans associated with the short-
term air quality impacts, hydrology/water quality, hazard hazardous materials, and noise would he
mitigate to below a level of significance.

XXII. DETERMINATION:
On the basis of this initial evaluation:
I find that the proposed project could not have a significant effect on the ^
environment, and a Negative Declaration will be prepared.
1 find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the ^
environment, there will not be a significant effect in this case because revisions in
the project have been made or agreed to by the project proponent. A Mitigated
Negative Declaration will be prepared.
1 find that the proposed project may have a significant effect on the environment, ^
and an Environmental Impact Report is required.
I find that the proposed project may have a "potentially significant impact" or ^
"potentially significant unless mitigated" impact on the environment, but at least one
effect I) has been adequately analyzed in an earlier document pursuant to applicable
legal standards, and 2) has been addressed by mitigation measures based on the earlier
analysis as described on attached sheets. An Environmental Impact Report is
required, but it must analyze only the effects that remain to be addressed.
t find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the ^
environment, because all potentially significant effects (a) have been analyzed
adequately in an earlier EII2 or Negative Declaraton pursuant to applicable standards
and (b) have been avoided or mitigated pursuant to that earlier EIR or Negative
Declaration, including revisions or mitigation measures that are imposed upon the
proposed project, nothing further is required.
