Four relatcd applications have been initiated by thc City of Chula Vista as a result of non-Baldwin
owned parcels being annexed into the City. Thesc applications are being processed in conjunction
with Otay Ranch SPA One review. The first application (PCA 96-02) involves an amendment to
the Planned Community (PC) Zone, Section 19.48 of the Chula Vista Municipal Code. The second
application (PCA 96-03) proposcs an amendment to the Chula Vista Municipal Code to create thc
Public/Quasi-Public (PQ) Zone. The third application (PCZ 96-A) involves applying this modified
PC Zone and the newly crcated PQ Zone to miscellancous publiely and non-Baldwin owned parccls
describcd below and prezoning the existing Nelson/Sloan Rock Quarry to A-8. Thc fourth
application (PCZ 96-A I) applics thc newly creatcd PQ Zone to the San Diego County Landfill
extension.
ISSUES:
. Perceived downzoning associated with the prezoning of the Southwest Corner, Dauz and
Groman propcrties

BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: None
DISCUSSION:
I. Amendment to Planned Community Zone (PCA 96-02)
A. Background/Proposal:
The primary purpose of the Planned Community (PC) Zone (Section 19 AX of the Chula
Vista Municipal Code) is to provide for ordcrly planning and long-term development of
large tracts of land in order to provide an environment of stable and dcsirable character. to
provide the developer with reasonable assurances that sectional development plans will be
acceptable to the City and to enable the City to adopt measures whieh provide for the
development of the surrounding areas compatible with the Planned Community Zone.
Implementation of the PC Zone is currently restricted to parcels of land undcr unified
O\vllership and of 50 acres or more and requires the concurrent submittal of a General
Development Plan (GDP).
The current amendment (see Exhibit A) would allow parcels, which arc contiguous to
existing GDPs and under or over 50 acres in size, to be zoned PC without the concurrent
adoption of a GDP. Several parcels not owned by the Baldwin Company, but surrounded
by the Otay Ranch, are less than 50 acres in size, with one parcel larger and arc not a part
of the Otay Ranch Project. The proposcd modification to the PC Zone would enable the
City to pre-zone these less than 50-acre parccls in connection with the annexation of the
Otay Valley Parcel.
Additionally, the PC Zone amendment allows an underlying zone consistent with the
general plan designation for those parcels which do not have, or wish to pursue, an
approved GDP. The underlying land use zone would be detennined at the time of
prezoning. In order to develop their properties, the affected property O\Vllers of the noted
parcels would have three options: L) the owner could amend the adjacent GDP and annex
to it in order to be part of the comprehensive Otay Ranch planning effort: 2.) the O\Vller
could seek an underlying land use consistent with the City's General Plan designation for
the site, or 3.) the O\Vl1er could make an application to the City for a General Plan
Amendment to change the PC zone to some other designation.
B. Analvsis:
The proposed amendment to the PC Zone would apply not only to the non-Otay Ranch
parcels as noted specifically below, but would also apply City-wide since the amendment
is to the City's Municipal Code. The amendment does not undennine the intent of the PC
Zone District and will most likely be applied on a limited basis in very specific
circumstances. In order for these noted exceptions to apply, a parcel must not only be
PCSRZAC.DOC. disc #3
r>..Jarch 14, 1996
Page 3, Item 2
Meeting Date 3/27/96
under 50 aeres in size, but also must be surrounded by, or contiguous to, an existing
adopted General Devclopment Plan. The amendment would allow parcels to annex into an
cxisting GDP and be part of a comprehensive planning effort, which would further the
goals of the Planned Community Zone District.
C. Issues:
No major issues have been identified with the proposed zoning text amendments. Zoning
text amendments have been addressed in the EIR for SPA One and Annexation (EIR 95-
(1) and the EIR for the Sphere ofInfluenee Update (EIR 94-03)
D. Conclusion:
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission adopt the attached Resolution of
Approval (PCA 96-02) and draft Ordinance and forward its recommendations to the City
CounciL
2. Creation ofthe Public/Quasi-Public Zone (PCA 96-03)
A Background/Proposal:
The Public/Quasi-Public (PQ) Zone is being created (see Exhibit B) in order to be applied
as a prezoning to certain non-Otay Ranch parcels ofland, such as the Otay Water District
and San Diego Reservoir parcels. The PQ Zone may also be applied in the future as
needed for other public agencies land uses within the City.
The PQ Zone will also address issues rclated to the landfill expansion should it be annexed
to the City in the future. However, at this time, an agreement between the City and the
County has been reached regarding the operating procedures for the landfill, and it will
remain as a special study area within the County. The proposed landfill agreement
establishes specific regulations and guidelines addressing operations and the eventual
closure of the facility. The proposed PQ Zone also includes provisions for closure of the
landfill in accordance with all applieable Federal, State and local regulations, including
regulations of the State Water Resources Control Board, the California Waste
Management Board and the Department of Health Services in the event that the landfill
were annexed to the City prior to closure.
It should be noted that the proposed PQ Zone also includes water reservoirs and parks as a
pennitted use. As noted below, the PQ Zone will be applied to non-Otay Ranch parcels of
land (e.g., the City of San Diego water reservoir parcel and Otay Water District parcel) in
advance of annexation.
B. Analvsis:
The purpose of the PQ Zone is to provide for a limited number of unique land uses in
appropriate locations which are maintained by public or publicly controlled agencies such
as municipal and/or County agencies, school districts or utility companies (e.g., water, gas,
clectrieity, etc.) including, but not limited to, the City of San Diego water reservoir and
Otay Water District parccls as noted above.

D. Conclusion:
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve the attached Resolution of
Approval (PCA 96-(3) recommending that the City Council adopt the attached draft
Ordinance creating the PQ Zone.
3. Prezoning of Specific Parcels (PCZ 96-A)
A. Background/Proposal:
The parcels noted in Section B below and illustrated in Exhibits C through I were imtiallv
addressed in the Sphere of Influence Update Study, which was approved by the City
Council on March 21. 1995. The Sphere of Influence Update was partially approved by
LAFCO on February 5, 1996 and is anticipated to bc acted upon by LAFCO on April I,
1996. Additionally, the City Council has approved a resolution to petition LAFCO for the
annexation of the Otay Ranch Annexation No. I, which includes the Otay Valley Parcel.
the Ranch House, the Inverted "L" property of the Otay Ranch and the Watson McCoy
property. The City Council also directed staff to submit an annexation application for
Planning Areas I and 3 of the Sphere Study and the Otay Ranch House property The
Annexation Application has been submitted to LAFCO. The Environmental Impact
Report, which addresses the annexation issues regarding the properties noted below is
being reviewed concurrently with this application.
While the applicant is primarily interested in annexing only SPA One, City staff believcs
additional territory is necessary for proper planning and future extension of City services
to serve the entire Otay Valley Parcel. The parcels noted below were included in the
annexation and, therefore, are required by State law to be prezoned.
The Otay Valley Planning Area is the largest of the Otay Ranch planning areas
encompassing approximately 9,000 acres. There are several parcels that arc not part of
the Otay Ranch ineluded within this Planning Area that are specifically defined below.
Generally, they inelude parcels of between 9 to 250 acres and include the Nelson/Sloan
rock quarry, the Otay Water District, the existing City of San Diego reservoir sites and
several other privately o"l1ed properties.
Planning Area Three is approximately 457 acres in size. Parcels which are not a part of
the Otay Ranch include the Watson property and the smaller Clarkson property.
B. Parcel Infoill1ation:
The following is a list of parcels to be prezoned along with their proposed prezone
designation, the City General Plan designation and the current County General Plan
designation.

Meeting Date 3/27/96
C. Analvsis:
All out-parcel property O\\l1ers were contacted by mail during the processing of SPA One.
The O\\l1erS were given the opportunity to meet with staff regarding the development
potential on their individual parcels which would exist after annexation into the Citv
While many of the property owners did not respond, some contacted staff by phone with
questions, and several came in to meet with Planning Dcpartmcnt and Otay Ranch Project
staff. Concerns voiced by the property owners dealt with the perception that theIr propcrty
would have less development rights if annexed into the Cit), than If it were to remain in the
County unincorporated area. Additional meetings were also held with the various property
owners in the Southwest Comer area, since this general location has unique issues
associated with it. Those O\Vl1erS who were not able to attend the meetings contacted staff
by telephone.
D. Issues:
No major issues have been identified with the proposed prezoning for the parcels noted
below. The prezonings have been addressed in the EIR for SPA One and Annexation (EIR
95-01) and the EIR for the Sphere ofInfluence Update (EIR 94-03)
The specific property owners who voiced concern regarding the pre-zoning and annexation
are as follows:
Parcels surrounded bv the Otav Ranch Proicct on three sides and located west of Pasco
Ranchero
APN: 641-030-09, Dauz, (AKA Barnabas Foundation), (See Exhibit C) Staff was
contacted by Mr. David Van der Ploeg who expressed concern that the property would
receive greater development potential within the County than in the City. The Bamabas
Foundation is not inherently opposed to the prezoning or annexation but would prefer that
their property be purchased by the SPA One project applicant. If developed within the
County of San Diego under the Residential-6 designation, the o\'mer would potentially be
able to develop their 7.82-acre parcel with 46 dwelling units. Under the City's current
General Plan designation of Open Space, the parcel would have the development potential,
or density transfer potential, of one lot per 10 acres or one dwelling unit. It should be
noted, however, that the enactment of the County Resource Protection Ordinance in 1986
would severely restrict the development potential of the property if it were to be developed
within the County's jurisdiction due to slopes and habitat. The impact of this ordinance on
the development potential of this property would have to be further evaluated to detennine
current development potential in the County. As indicated in the chart above, the proposed
prezoning of this parcel would be to Pc. As previously indicated in Section I of this
report, the owner would have three options under the PC scenario. It is staffs preference
that the parcel be folded into the overall planning effort for the Otay Ranch. Policies are
also contained in SPA One that encourage the comprehensive planning of the area west of
Paseo Ranchero.
APN: 641-030-10, Groman. (See Exhibit C) Staff was contacted by Ms. Groman by
telephone who indicated the same concerns that were voiced by Mr. Van der Ploeg. If
developed within the County of San Diego under the Residential-6 designation, the O\\l1er
PCSRZAC.DOC. disc #3

Page 7, Item 2
Mceting Date 3/27/96
would potcntially bc ablc to devclop hcr 1.82 acre parcel with 10 dwclling units. Undcr
thc City's currcnt General Plan designation of Opcn Space, the parcel would have thc
development potential, or density transfer potential, of one lot per 10 acres or one dwelling
unit. Since this parccl is contiguous to the Dauz (Barnabas Foundation) parcel discussed
above, thc same constraints are placed on the property by the County's Resourcc
Protection Ordinancc. As indicated above, the proposed prezoning of this parcel would bc
to PC, and thc owncr would have the three options statcd earlicr in the staff rcport. City
staff would, again, prcfcr that the parcel bc foldcd into the overall planning cffort for thc
Otay Ranch sincc the SPA One contains policies that encouragc thc comprchcnsivc
planning ofthc area west of Pasco Ranchero.
APN: 641-030-03, Ross. (Sce Exhibit C) Staff mct with Mr. and Mrs. Ross who werc
intcrcstcd in thc proccss but had no rcal conccms with being annexed into thc City or thc
land usc dcsignation thcy wcrc assigncd. If dcvelopcd in thc County undcr thc R-6
designation, thc owncr would havc the potcntial of dcveloping 59 units. If developcd in thc
City undcr thc undcrlying L-M Rcsidcntial standards, thc owncr would havc the
devclopmcnt potential of 44 units at thc mid-point of the dcnsity range. It should be notcd,
howcvcr, that the futurc trollcy alignmcnt is proposcd to bisect thc Ross propcrty which
would limit thc dcvclopability of thcir parccl. Again, staff would prcfer that thc arca west
of Pasco Ranchcro bc dcveloped as a unit pcr thc policics indicatcd in SPA Onc.
APN: 641-060-02 & 03, Gerhardt. (See Exhibit C) Staff spokc with Mr. Gerhardt by
telephonc. He was satisficd with thc anncxation proposal. The property is surrounded on
thrcc sidcs by Villagc Onc. If developed in the County undcr thc R6 dcsignation, thc
owncr would have thc potcntial of developing up to 44 units. If developed in the City
undcr thc underlying L-M Residential standards, thc owner would have the development
potcntial of 52 dwelling units at the mid-point of the dcnsity range. As indicated above,
this property is proposcd to be zoned Pc.
Parcels Surrounded bv the Inverted "L" Parcel
APN: 595-050-05 & 06, Clarkson. (Scc Exhibit D) Staff was contacted by Mr.
Clarkson who indicated that he was satisfied that his property was being annexed into the
City and voiced his support of the annexation effort. If developed within the County of
San Dicgo under thc Multiple Rural Usc designation, the owncr would have thc
dcvelopment potcntial of one dwelling unit per 8 acres. Under the City's current General
Plan designation of Low Density Residcntial (0-3 du/ac), the 7.5-acre parcel would have
the development or density transfer potential of 7.5 single-family units As indicated
above, the proposed prezoning of this parcel would bc to Pc.
APN: 585-150-02, Watson. (See Exhibit D) Staff met with Tim Wilson of the Watson
Land Company. He voiced his support of the annexation effort and was in favor of his
160-acrc parcel being anncxed into the City. If developed within the County of San Diego
under the Multiple Rural Use designation, the applicant would have the development
potential of onc dwelling unit per 8 acrcs, or 20 single-family units. Under the City's
current Gcncral Plan designation of Low Density Residential (0-3 du/ac), the 160-acrc
PCSRZAC.DOC. disc IrJ

parcel would have the development or density transfer potential of 224 single family units,
based on the mid-point of the density range.
Planning Area One
APN: 643-020-40,41 & 45-47, EastLake Land Swap (See Exhibit E) Staff has met
with representatives of the EastLake Company, and they arc supportIve of the annexatIOn
and prezoning. If developed within the County of San Diego under the Intensive
Agriculture designation, the owner would have the development potential of 40 dwelling
units. The Chula Vista General Plan designates 19 acres of Low-Medium Residential with
a mid-point of 85 dwelling units, 45 acres of Medium-High Residential with a mid-point of
653 dwclling units, 52 acrcs of commercial, II acres of opcn space and 17 acres of
circulation. Approximately 55 acres of this land has already been annexed into the City as
part of the EastLake Greens Expansion.
APN: 645-030-3-14, Southwest Corner. (See Exhibit F) Staff met with three of the
property owners (Bums, Rabello and Hofer) in October 1995 and with Mr. Bums and Mr.
Hofer again in March 1996. The remaining three OWllers responded by telephone to the
letter sent by staff. All were concemed that their property would be potentially downzoned
with annexation into the City of Chula Vista. Currently, County zoning on all of these
parcels is A-70 (Limited Agriculture), which would allow thcm to build one single-family
housc on a minimum 4-aerc parcel as well as limited agricultural uses such as growing of
container plants. While the area is proposed to be prezoned PC, the underlying permitted
land use would be Agriculture in order to be consistent with the City's General Plan
general plan designation of Open Space. The Open Space designation within the City
allows one residential unit per every 10 acres. City policies, upon annexation, would allow
one dwelling unit per legal lot of record. Therefore, in actuality similar development
potential could be realized either within the City or the County.
In a site visit to the southwcst comer, staff observed that all of the parcels arc currently
vacant except for parcels 645-030-07, 08 and 09 ovmed by Mr. Hofer. Parcels 645-030-
10, II and 12, owned by Mr. Bums, have been rough graded and are otherwise vacant.
Staff noted an active trucking business, trailer office building and a metal building being
used for truck storage and repair on Mr. Hofer's parcels. We have not been able to verifY
with the County whether or not these uses have permits. In the event that they do have
permits, they would be annexed into the City as legal non-conforming uses. In the event
that the uses are not legal, the OWl1er would have to pursue a General Plan Amendment and
zone change in order to legalize them. Both owners have indicated to City staff that, if
annexed into the City, they prefer to pursue industrial zoning.
The most southerly Parcel 14 is vacant but is dissimilar to the other pareels in the
southwest comer in that currently County zoning is M-52 (Limited Industrial). This zone
designation allows for a wide variety of industrial and commercial uses. In order to be
consistent with the City's General Plan, the area would still have to receive the underlying
zone designation of Open Space. The property owner would have to pursue a General Plan
Amendment and zone change in order to allow industrial use.

APN: 646-060-06, Nelson/Sloan Rock Quarry. (See Exhibit G) The rock quarry has
been operating since the mid-1950's within the County of San Diego. It is the intent to
pre-zone the quarry to A-8 and allow it to continue operation as a legal non-eonfonning
use. The quarry made application to the County for an asphalt batch plant in the late
1980's. This application was never acted on by the County. Should the applicant wish to
consider a similar use once annexed into the City, an application for a Conditional Use
Pennit would have to be submitted to the City. Staff has met with the quarry operator.
and they arc supportive of annexation as long as they arc allowed continued operation of
their facility.
APN: 644-070-04, San Diego Water Reservoir Parcel. (See Exhibit H) The site is
currently operating as a reservoir. Thc proposed pre-zoning is to Public/Quasi-Public
which would allow the site to continue operation in its current fonn. The site IS
surrounded on three sides by Village Five, is currently operating as a reservoir and is
planned for reservoir expansion.
APN: 643-020-08, 13,25,26 & 27, Otay Water District Parcels (See Exhibit I) The
above parcels are proposed to be prezoned PQ, which would allow them to function as a
water reservoir site.
E. Conclusion:
Staff rccommends that the Planning Commission adopt the attached Resolution of
Approval (PCl 96-A) recommending approval of the proposed prezones and forward their
recommendation to City Council.
4. Prezoning of the Existing County Landfill (pel 96-AI)
A Background/Proposal:
The landfill parcel, as shown in Exhibit J, is 250 acres in size and was initially addressed
in the Sphere of Influence Update, which was approved by the Chula Vista City Council
on March 21,1995. The Sphere of Influence Study was reviewed and partially approved
by LAFCO on February 5, 1996. The approval did not include the landfill or "County
peninsula". Full approval is anticipated to be completed by LAFCO on April I, 1996,
with a package of items that includes the sphere, annexation, property tax agreement and
landfill agreement. The City intends to delete the landfill from the sphere of influence of
the City of Chula Vista, and to retain it as a special study area in the Sphere.
B. Analvsis:
Although the landfill is proposed to remain within the unincorporated area of the County,
the City of Chula Vista still intends to prezone it to PQ in order to provide the County with
assurances that the City will be supportive of the landfill use on the property, both
currently and in the future The County has expressed reservations regarding the landfill
being annexed into the City, and is concemed with the potential for the City exercising
land use controls over the facility and charging host fees.
