PLANNING COMMISSION AGENDA STATEMENT Item No.:L Meeting Date: 08/10/05 ITEM TITLE: Public Hearing: Consideration of General Plan Amendment, Rezone and Tentative Subdivision Map, GPA -05-01, PCZ-03-01, and PCS -03-01, for a project known as El Dorado Ridge, Chula Vista Tract-03-01, located on the east side of Brandywine Ave, across from Mendocino Drive, north of Main Street - CVHI, LLC. The applicant, CVHI, LLC, has submitted applications requesting approval of a General Plan Amendment, Rezone and Tentative Subdivision Map for the El Dorado Ridge Project. The project site is a vacant 11.46-acre lot located on the east side of Brandywine Ave, across from Mendocino Dr, north of Main Street in southern Chula Vista. (See attached locator map). The specific applications are described below: (1) GPA-05-01 is an amendment of the Chula Vista General Plan from the Residential- Low Designation (3-6 dwelling units per acre) to the Residential - Medium Designation (6-11 dwelling units per acre). (2) PCZ-03-01 is a request for a zoning re-classification from the R-1-10H Single Family Residence Zone to the R-2-P - One and Two Family Residence Zone, with a Precise Plan Modifying District. (3) PCS-03-01 is a request for a Tentative Condominium Subdivision Map to subdivide a vacant 11.46-acre lot into two lots, (A) a 7.22 acre multi-family residential lot, to pennit construction of 104 attached condominium town homes, including garages, guest parking and common recreational facilities, and a 4.24 acre open space lot for preservation of biological resources and steep slopes. The Environmental Review Coordinator has reviewed the proposed project for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act and has conducted an Initial Study, IS-02-045 in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act. Based upon the results of the Initial Study, the Environmental Review Coordinator has detennined that the project could result in significant effects on the environment. However, revisions to the project made by or agreed to by the applicant would avoid the effects or mitigate the effects to a point where clearly no significant effects would occur; therefore, the Environmental Review Coordinator has prepared a Mitigated Negative Declaration, IS-02-045. All written comments are to be received by August 16, 2005. (see Attachment 5). Page 2, Item: Meeting Date: 08/10/05 BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: On August 1, 2005, the Resource Conservation Commission recommended approval of Mitigated Negative Declaration IS-02-045. On July 18,2005, the Design Review Committee approved Design Review Application DRC-05- 022 for the El Dorado Ridge Project, by a vote of 3-0-1-1. No further action is required on this application, which is predicated upon approval of these applications. PUBLIC COMMENTS: On June 9, 2005, City staff and the applicant hosted a publicly noticed meeting at the Valle Lindo Elementary School, to accept comments and questions on the project. Prior to this meeting, the applicant conducted a series of public workshops to obtain public input and provide updates on the progress of the project. There were five attendees from the public at the June 9th meeting. The concerns expressed at the meeting were limited to increased traffic congestion and accidents in the vicinity of Brandywine Ave. between Main Street and Sequoia Street, which makes it increasingly difficult to turn onto Brandywine Ave. from adjacent streets. Staff has discussed these concerns with our Engineering Department. A traffic study was prepared which showed that the project will generate 832 average daily trips, and that Brandywine Ave. is forecast to operate at level of service "c" before and after project approval. The Brandywine A ve./Sequoia Intersection north of the project site is currently a 4-way stop, but will be one of the next intersections in the City to receive a traffic signal, which will help reduce traffic queues that affect congestion at this intersection. Some of this congestion results from the ongoing construction of the 1-805/ Olympic Parkway interchange, which may divert some eastbound traffic intending to use the 1-805/ Olympic Parkway interchange to the 1-805/ Main Street interchange, to Brandywine, past the project site to Olympic Parkway. This is a temporary condition that will end with completion of the freeway construction, which is anticipated by November 2005. Also, preparation of a striping plan showing a safe sight visibility triangle is required prior to approval on the Improvement plans, which will ensure that the project access will function safely. RECOMMENDATION: That the Planning Commission adopt attached Resolution GPA-05-01/ PCZ 03-01/ PCS- 03-01 recommending that the City Council approve: 1) Mitigated Negative Declaration, IS-02-045, 2) GPA-05-01, an amendment of the Chula Vista General Plan, 3) PCZ-03-01, a request for a zoning re-classification, and 4) PCS-03-01, a request for a Tentative Condominium Subdivision Map, in accordance with the attached draft City Council Resolutions. DISCUSSION: 1. Existing Site Characteristics Page 3, Item: Meeting Date: 08/10/05 The El Dorado Ridge project site is located on the east side of Brandywine Ave. across from Mendocino Dr., north of Main Street in southeastern Chula Vista. The site is a 11.46 acre undeveloped site with elevations ranging from a high point of 320 feet at the center of the northern boundary of the lot, to 189 feet at the southwestern corner of the lot adjacent to Brandywine Drive. The site slopes uphill to the northeast, with gradients ranging from level lands adjacent to Brandywine A venue to slopes of over 25% on the northeastern portion of the site. The on-site vegetation has been identified as 5.9 acres of ruderal (disturbed) vegetation, a .19- acre a natural drainage swale, and 5.4 acres of the Maritime Succulent Scrub plant community. 2. Surrounding Land Uses The adopted and existing land uses on site and in the surrounding area include the following: South General Plan Designation Zoning Existing Land Use Residential- Low Resid. - Single Family Vacant Medium (R-I-IO-H -I dull 0,000 s. f.) Residential - Low Planned Community Apartments Medium Research and Limited Limited Industrial Industrial Industrial (IL-P) Residential - Low Planned Community Single-Family Medium Residential Residential - Low Resid. - Single Family Condominiums Medium (R-I-5, 1 du/5,000 s. f.) Location Site North East West 3. Background: The Project site was formerly owned by the Chula Vista Elementary School District, who has sold the property to the applicant. On 7/23/02, the applicant filed a Tentative Map application (PCS-03-0 1) to subdivide the property into 50 single family residential lots at a minimum lot size of 4,500 square feet, a rezone application (PCZ-03-01) to rezone the property from the existing RI-IO (H) zone to the RI-5 (P) zone, and a Precise Plan application (PCM-02-23), to allow more design flexibility. During project review it was detennined that much of the site is constrained by steep slopes that are highly visible from off-site. As a result of these site constraints, the available developable area was significantly reduced, and the applicant sought amendment of the General Plan through the City's General Plan Update from Low-Medium Residential (3-6 du/acre) to Medium Residential (6-11 du/acre). Prior to fonnal filing of the Design Review application, it was detennined that City's General Plan Update was not going to be approved in time to meet the project schedule, so the applicant filed a privately-initiated General Plan Amendment application, Page 4, Item: Meeting Date: 08/10/05 and modified their Rezone and Tentative Map applications to request a clustered, multi-family development. The Design Review application DRC-05-22 was approved by the Design Review Committee on 7/18/05, and action in reliance on the DRC approval is contingent upon adoption of the General Plan Update and Rezone, and therefore building penn its cannot be issued until the General Plan change and rezone take effect. The Tentative Map resolution requires compliance with both Tentative Map and Design Review conditions of approval. The applicant has a concern that conditions of the DRC and Tentative Map might overlap, and so staff has included a condition of approval that ensures that if there are conflicts, the Tentative Map conditions shall prevail, except where they relate to design matters subject to the City Design Manual, such as landscaping, architecture, and freestanding wall and fence design. 4. Analysis A. Biology: A biological study was prepared for the project, which detennined that sensitive biological resources exist on the property. The project will result in impacts to the Coastal California gnatcatcher, 1.1 acre of Maritime succulent scrub (MSS), a natural drainage of approximately 0.19 acre, and 17 percent of the Narrow Endemic species population, such as Otay tarplant and Snake cholla which are covered species under the City's MSCP Subarea Plan. The project site is located within in the City of Chula Vista MSCP Subarea Plan boundary in an area designated as a "Development Area." Under the Subarea Plan, the proposed project is subject to the requirements under the Habitat Loss and Incidental Take (HUT) Ordinance. Based on the environmental analysis, staff has detennined that the project has complied with the City's MSCP Subarea Plan and met the requirements of the HUT Ordinance. All biological impacts have been mitigated to below a level of significance. The applicant has signed an agreement to abide by the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP), which includes the mitigation measures for impacts to the biological resources found on-site. B. General Plan Amendment/Rezone: Proposed Land use Changes: The project requests a change from the Residential - Low Medium General Plan Designation (3- 6 dwelling units per acre) to the Residential - Medium General Plan Designation (6-11 dwelling units per acre). Also requested is a zoning re-c1assification from the R-I-IOH Single Family Residence Zone to the R-2-P - One and Two Family Residence Zone, with a Precise Plan Modifying District. Staff suggested this change as a method for developing a more creative project that is consistent with the physical setting and surroundings. The Precise Plan Modifying District will be used to adopt amendments to the R-2 development standards to pennit town home building Page 5, Item: Meeting Date: 08/10/05 types, a 35 foot/3 story height limit, maximum floor areas approximating the proposed unit sizes, establishment of a guest parking standard of 1 space per 3 dwelling units, and a limitation of density to 9.1 dwelling units per acre (see Attachment 6, GPA map). Compatibility with surrounding area: The site is on the fringe of a residential area designated Residential- Low Medium (3-6 du/acre) on the General Plan, and zoned PC (Planned Community), where the existing development pattern transitions from single-family to the east on top of the ridge, to multi-family on the north and west along Brandywine Ave., to light industrial on the south. Because of the grade separation between site and the single-family to the northeast, and the sites' more direct proximity to existing multi-family and industrial lands on the west and south, respectively, it is logical that the project site be developed with multi-family uses. Furthennore, the subdivision of the property into an 4.24 acre open space lot adjacent to the existing single family uses provides a buffer between the proposed multi-family units and the existing homes. The industrial site to the south is a light industrial complex of suites whose tenants operate indoors with loading bays in the back, and a parking lot in front. There is a landscaped slope on the industrial site. The parking lot also wraps around to face the project site. Staff feels the proposed project will be compatible with the adjacent industrial site for the following reasons: 1) The adjacent industrial complex contains light-industrial uses which operate indoors, except for the loading area; and 2) After construction, the proposed townhomes will be separated from the adjacent industrial building by approximately 220 feet distance, and separated by grades of approximately 70 feet, and 3) The project design will include a program of walls, fencing and landscaping to help buffer the project from the industrial site; and 4) The project's noise study did not identify noise from the industrial as an potential impact, but if a noise complaint is filed, the CVMC contains enforceable noise regulations designed to protect residential uses . Conformance to City General Plan: With the adoptions of the proposed General Plan Amendment, the Rezone and Tentative Map will be in conformance the City General Plan because it would allow development at a density of 9.1 dwelling units per acre, which is within the allowable residential density range of 6-11 dwelling units per acre. The project design is consistent with the clustering provision of the Land Use Element, because the clustered design will preserve significant areas of steep slope and sensitive plant habitat. Also, the project proposes an attached townhome development which will be consistent with the character intended for a Residential Medium area, and will be compatible with the development of the surrounding area, which transitions from single family to multi- family to industrial. Also, the project is consistent with the pending City General Plan Update. Adoption of the Rezoning Ordinance and Precise Plan standards Page 6, Item: Meeting Date: 08/10/05 Staff recommends adoption of the proposed rezoning ordinance and precise plan standards because the project configures the placement of the open space and residential uses on the site in a way that provides preservation of steep slope and biological open space areas. It will not have a negative impact on the surrounding neighborhood because the proposed standards allow the applicant to design an attached townhome project that is compatible with the surrounding development. B. Tentative Map: Proposed Proiect: The application also requests approval of a Tentative Map for a 2-10t condominium subdivision, including Parcell, a 4.24-acre open space lot supporting sensitive plant species and steep slopes, and Parcel 2, a 7.22-acre residential lot for a 104 attached town-homes, 38 guest parking spaces in open parking bays, and 9 common recreation areas. The proposed town-homes consist of 3 floor plans, clustered into buildings ranging in size from 3-plexes to 8-plexes. Maximum building height is 35 feet, 3 stories. The units range from a 2 or 3 bedroom, 1,791 sq. ft. Plan A, to a 4 bedroom, 2,270 sq. ft. Plan C, each with a 2-car garage (See Attachment 7, Site Plan). Subdivision Design: Portions of the site which are not suitable for residential development due to presence of sensitive biological resources and steep slopes will be protected in a separate open space lot, while a residential lot will be created for the developable portion of the site, which will be graded and developed in a manner that confonns to all standards established by the City for a residential development. The 4.24-acre open space parcel is specifically designed to preserve 80% of the narrow endemic sensitive plant species on site, Otay Tarplant and Snake Cholla, which were identified in the biology study. Pursuant to the City MSCP, a maximum of 20% of narrow endemic plant species will be taken for development. Also, clustering the development on the lower portions of the site has preserved the steep slope landfonns, which has resulted in significantly reducing the grading necessary for the project. The 7.22-acre residential parcel size and design is a factor of the amount of open space required to preserve the steep slope and sensitive plant species. The parcel is curvilinear in shape and generally follows the toe of the existing natural slope. The developable area is very narrow on the northwest comer adjacent to Brandywine Ave. and widens to pennit a loop street system supporting a majority of the units on the south side of the site. Because the project is a Condominium Subdivision pursuant to the Government Code, preparation ofCC&R's are required. The applicant has expressed a concern that the conditions of approval regarding CC&R's might conflict with the Department of Real Estate requirements. Staff is reviewing this issue and will report any findings that might affect the language of the proposed conditions at the public hearing. Page 7, Item: Meeting Date: 08/10/05 Grading and Retaining Walls: Due to site development constraints mentioned above, the applicant has proposed a system of tiered, split-face block retaining walls that surround the residential parcel, to create useable building pads. The retaining walls will be split-face, and have been tiered to provide intennittent landscaped benches of 3-5 feet to soften their views. Retaining walls of variable heights will be located along the perimeter of the site. Along Brandywine Street, the retaining walls range from a 3-tiered, 26 ft high wall with intennittent 10 ft. wide landscaped benches at the southwest corner of the site, to a 6- foot high, 2-tiered wall with a 5 foot landscaped bench at the northwest comer. On the southern perimeter, the walls transition from grade level where they support areas of cut to create the building 10 pad, to 2- tired, 25 foot high retaining walls which support the fill to create the pad for building 8. Along the Open Space Preserve, the walls range from a single 2 foot high retaining wall at the eastern side of the site next to building 16, to a 2-tiered, 15 ft. high retaining wall with a landscaped bench next to the recreation area between buildings 2 and 5. In this area the wall will include a 6 ft. high firewall above the retaining wall, which also will incorporate a landscape bench and planting at the base. In this area the walls support areas of cutting to create building pads, except for adjacent to building 16, at which the walls are reversed to support the building pad. Pad elevations range from 262 feet for Building 19, on the eastside of the site, to 212 feet for Building 1 just north of the project entry. The pad and finished floor elevations will step downhill from east to west. To fit buildings 2, 18 and 19 to their pads, these buildings will utilize stepped foundations. Project Access and Circulation The project fronts on Brandywine Ave, an 80 foot, 4-lane Class I Collector Road. There is one 52-ft. wide gated project entry on the west side of the site connecting to Brandywine Ave. The entry gate will be fitted with systems that will allow police patrol and fire vehicles to open the gate. Twenty-two to twenty four foot wide private streets provide primary vehicular access. The street system includes two dead-end streets with vehicular turn-arounds on the west side of the project, which staff is recommending to receive a waiver of private street standards from 24 feet to 22 feet in order to provide landscape area to buffer retaining walls and to provide planting areas along the private streets. There are 24-foot private streets in a loop system on the east side of the project. Access to public transit will be provided by an existing bus stop at intersection of Sequoia Street and Brandywine Ave. Pedestrian access will be provided via internal 4-foot wide pedestrian paths connected to the public sidewalk on Brandywine Ave. Page 8, Item: Meeting Date: 08/10/05 A traffic study has been prepared by Federhart and Associates (dated 2/4/05) for the project. It determined that the Brandywine Ave is designed to accommodate 22,000 average daily trips (ADT's), and currently operates at level of service "c" with 6,800 ADT's. After construction of the project, which will add 832 ADT's, Brandywine Ave. will continue to operate at an acceptable level of service "C". Recommended traffic mitigation measures included payment of Transportation DIF Fees, and preparation of a striping plan showing a safe sight visibility triangle, prior to approval of the improvement plans, which will ensure that the project access will function safely. Fire Protection Plan: The project site is located in a high fire hazard zone, which per the California Fire Code requires preparation of a Fire Protection Plan. This plan has been prepared by Firewise 2000, Inc. and approved by the City Fire Marshall. The fire hazard is a result of existing vegetation within close proximity of the proposed units. The Fire Protection Plan includes fire mitigation measures which have been included in the draft conditions of approval, such as: 1) a six-foot non- combustible fire wall separating the units from the open space, 2) emergency exterior fire sprinklers in the biological preserve area, 3) fire-resistant landscaping, 4) fuel modification zones in non-preserve open space areas, and 5) structural mitigation measures for the units, such as sprinklers, boxed eaves, covered vents, and building projections made from non-combustible materials. Conclusion: Portions of the site which are not suitable for residential development due to presence of sensitive biological resources and steep slopes will be protected in a separate open space lot, while a residential lot will be created for the developable portion of the site, which will be graded and developed in a manner that confonns to all standards established by the City for a residential development. As a result of the site design process that has occurred in conjunction with the Subdivision Map and Design Review applications, and the inclusion of conditions of approval, staff has detennined that the project is in compliance with City Subdivision Manual requirements, and is physically suited for residential development, as required by the State Subdivision Map Act. Based on the preceding infonnation, staff is of the opinion that the project meets the General Plan, Zoning and Subdivision Manual requirements for a Tentative Subdivision Map, and recommends that the Planning Commission adopt the attached Planning Commission Resolution recommending that the City Council approve the General Plan Amendment 05-01, Rezone PCZ- 03-01, and Tentative Map PCS 03-01, subject to the conditions listed in the attached Draft City Council Resolution.

V. GENERAL PLAN INTERNAL CONSISTENCY The City Council hereby finds and detennines that the General Plan consistency is internally consistent and shall remain internally consistent following the amendments thereon in this Resolution. VI. GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT AND TENTATIVE SUBDIVISION MAP FINDINGS A. Pursuant to Government Code Sections 65350 et. seq. (Planning and Zoning Law), and 66473.5 (Subdivision Map Act), the City Council finds that the Project, as conditioned herein, is in confonnance with the elements of the City's General Plan, based on the following: 1. Land Use The project will be developed at a density of 9.1 dwelling units per acre, which is within the allowable residential density range of 6-11 dwelling units per acre. The project design is consistent with the clustering provision of the Land Use Element, because the clustered design will preserve significant areas of steep slope and sensitive plant habitat. Also, the project proposes an attached townhome development which will be consistent with the character intended for a Residential Medium area, and will be more compatible with the development of the surrounding area, which transitions from single family to multi-family to industrial. The proposed project provides a broader range of housing opportunities in the southeastern portion of the City. 2. Circulation The Developer will construct the on-site private streets, and the off-site public streets required to serve the subdivision already exist. Required public street improvements will be provided by the Developer per the Conditions of Approval. The private streets within the Project will be designed in accordance with the City design standards and/or requirements and provide for vehicular and pedestrian connections. A traffic report has been prepared for the proj ect, which detennined that the proj ect would not adversely affect the surrounding neighborhood. 3 Resolution No. 2005- 3. Public Facilities The Project has been conditioned to ensure that all necessary public facilities and services will be available to serve the Project concurrent with the demand for those services. There are no public service, facility, or phasing needs created by the Project that warrants the preparation of a Public Facilities Financing Plan, therefore this requirement is waived. 4. Housing The Project is consistent with the density prescribed within the Residential - Medium General Plan designation, and provides additional opportunities for multi-family residential home ownership. The project has been conditioned to require that the Developer enter into an agreement with the City to provide low and moderate-income housing consistent with the City's Affordable Housing Program, Policy 3.1.2 of the City's Housing Element, prior to issuance of the final map. 5. Growth Management The Project is in compliance with applicable Growth Management Element requirements because there are no public service, facility, or phasing needs that warrant the preparation of a Public Facilities Financing Plan. 6. Open Space and Conservation The project proposes clustering of the development of dwellings on the lower elevations in order to preserve steep slopes and sensitive plant habitat. The Environmental Review Coordinator has prepared a Mitigated Negative Declaration, IS-02-045, which addressed the goals and policies of the California Environmental Quality Act, and found the development of the site to be consistent with the goals and policies of the Conservation Element. 7. Parks and Recreation The Project includes adequate areas for on-site, privately maintained open space to serve each dwelling unit, and has been conditioned to pay park acquisition and development fees prior to recordation of the Final Map. 8. Safety The City Engineer, Fire and Police Departments have reviewed the proposed subdivision for confonnance with City safety policies and have detennined that the proposal, as conditioned, meets those standards. A Fire Protection Plan has been prepared and approved by the City Fire Marshal. 9. Noise The Project has been reviewed for compliance with the Noise Element and will comply with applicable noise measures at the time of issuance of the building pennit. The Project has been conditioned to require that all dwelling units be designed to 4 Resolution No. 2005- preclude interior noise levels over 45 dBA and exterior noise exposure over 65 dBA for all outside private yard areas. 10. Scenic Highway This Project Site IS not located adjacent to or visible from a designated scemc highway. 11. Seismic Safety A preliminary geotechnical investigation has been prepared for the project, which determined that a trace of the potentially active Nacion Fault is present on the property. The report recommended that certain geotechnical mitigation measures be required, which have been included in the Mitigated Negative Declaration as conditions of approval. Also, another condition of approval has been included which requires that a detailed soils report and geo-technical study be prepared in conjunction with grading plans. B. Pursuant to Government Code Section 66473.1 of the Subdivision Map Act, the City Council finds that the configuration, orientation, and topography of the site allows for the optimum siting of lots for natural and passive heating and cooling opportunities and that the development of the site will be subject to site plan and architectural review to insure the maximum utilization of natural and passive heating and cooling opportunities. C. Pursuant to Government Code Section 66412.3 of the Subdivision Map Act, the Council certifies that it has considered the effect of this approval on the housing needs of the region and has balanced those needs against the public service needs of the residents of the City and the available fiscal and environmental resources. D. The site is physically suited for residential development because those portions of the site which are not suitable for residential development due to presence of sensitive biological resources and steep slopes will be protected in a separate open space lot, while a residential lot will be created for the developable portion of the site, which will be graded and developed in a manner that conforms to all standards established by the City for a residential development. E. The conditions herein imposed on the grant of permit or other entitlement herein contained is approximately proportional both in nature and extend to the impact created by the proposed development.

Discretionary Approval of Ordinance WHEREAS, a duly called and noticed public hearing on the Rezone was held before the City Council of the City of Chula Vista to receive the recommendations of the Planning Commission, and to hear public testimony with regard to the same. II. The City Council of the City Chula Vista does hereby ordain as follows: A. Certification of Compliance with California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) WHEREAS, the Environmental Review Coordinator has reviewed the proposed Project for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has conducted an Initial Study, IS-02-45 in accordance with CEQA. WHEREAS, based on the results of the Initial Study, the Environmental Review Coordinator has determined that the project could result in significant effects on the environment. However, Ordinance No. Page 3 revisions to the project made by or agreed to by the applicant would avoid the effects or mitigate the effects to a point where clearly no significant effects would occur; therefore, the Environmental Review Coordinator has prepared a Mitigated Negative Declaration, IS-02-045. B. Independent Judgment of the City Council WHEREAS, the City Council has exercised their independent review and judgment and concurs with the Planning Commission, Resource Conservation Commission, and Environmental Review Coordinator's determination that Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS-02-045), in the form presented, has been prepared in accordance with requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the State CEQA Guidelines and the Environmental Review Procedures of the City of Chula Vista and hereby adopts the Mitigated Negative Declaration and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (IS-02-045). C. Precise Plan Findings 1. That such use will not under the circumstances of the particular case be detrimental to the health, safety or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity or injurious to property or improvements in the vicinity. The City Council finds that the proposed precise plan standards contained in attached Exhibit C will not have a negative impact on the surrounding neighborhood because the proposed standards allow the applicant to design a project that is more compatible with the surrounding development. The surrounding area includes multi-family dwellings on the north and west, single- family homes to the east, and industrial complex to the south. Such standards will allow the flexibility in establishing new development standards for density, building types, height, floor area and setback regulations that will permit construction of attached town-home dwelling units with garages, private yards, and common open space, which is appropriate for an area which transitions from single-family to industrial zoned areas. 2. That such plan satisfies the following principles for application of the "P" modifying district as set forth in CVMC 19.56.041: (a) The City Council finds that the property is unique in terms of its physical characteristics, configuration, circulation, social or historic characteristics requiring special design; because the site includes steep slope lands of25% or greater, and narrow endemic sensitive plant species which requires preservation in an open space lot and clustering of development into the southern and western portions of the site, in a manner that complies with the City's General Plan, Zoning Ordinance and Multiple Species Conservation Program. (b) Council also finds that the site is adjacent and contiguous to areas zoned Planned Community and Limited Industrial, and that the adoption of the Precise Plan will allow the project to be designed with dwelling unit types and development standards which will make a more appropriate transition between adjacent multi family and single family development, and will also be designed to include walls, fencing and landscape setbacks that will help Ordinance No. Page 4 buffer the units adjacent from the adjacent industrial uses, in a manner that the development of the site will better coexist with adjacent uses which might otherwise not be compatible. (c) Council also finds that application of the "P" modifying district is appropriate because the basic or underlying R-l-1 OH zone regulation does not allow the flexibility needed to achieve a project design that permits clustering of development in a way that protects the on-site biological resources and steep slopes, and therefore a precise plan modifying district is needed to allow a more compatible design. 3. That any exceptions granted which may deviate from the underlying zoning requirements shall be warranted only when necessary to meet the purpose and application of the Precise Plan. Development of the lot using the development standards of the R-2 zone would limit the ability of the applicant to propose a design which: a) Meets the goal of providing a 3 story, multi-family townhome dwelling unit type with private and common recreational facilities, where the R-2 zone permits 2 story duplex buildings with private recreational areas; and b) Configures the placement of the open space and residential uses on the site in a way that provides preservation of steep slope and biological open space areas. These requested deviations under the Precise Plan are warranted in order to achieve the purpose of the Precise Plan Modifying District. 4. The approval of this plan will conform to the General Plan and the adopted policies of the City Of Chula Vista. The project has been designed and evaluated in accordance with the goals and objectives of the General Plan, including the Residential-Medium (6-11 du/acre) and Clustering provisions of the Land Use Element. The Precise Plan, as described, will allow the project to be consistent with the goals and objectives of the General Plan, and the Chula Vista Municipal Code. D. The rezoning provided for herein is consistent with the City of Chula Vista General Plan, public necessity, convenience and the general welfare and good zoning practice support the amendment to the Municipal Code. E. The City Of Chula Vista Zoning Map established by Section 19.18.010 of the Chula Vista Municipal Code is hereby amended to rezone the site as depicted in Exhibit "B" from R-1-10H (Single - Family Residential, Hillside) to R-2-P (One and Two Family Residential, Precise Plan). F. The Precise Plan Standards as depicted in Exhibit "B" are hereby adopted and are supported by the required findings (CVMC Section 19.56.041, as outlined in section II (C) above. III. EFFECTIVE DATE. This ordinance shall take effect and be in full force on the thirtieth day from and after its adoption. Ordinance No. Page 5 Presented by James D.

Mitigated Negative Declaration DRAFT PROJECT NAME: EI Dorado Ridge PROJECT LOCA nON: Eastern side of Brandywine Avenue across from Mendocino Drive, north of Main Street and south of Sequoia Street ASSESSOR'S PARCEL NO.: 644-010-27 PROJECT APPLICANT: The Phair Company and Development Contractor, Inc. CASE NO.: IS-02-045 DA TE OF DRAFT DOCUMENT: July 8, 2005 DATE OF RESOURCE CONSERV A nON COMMISSION MEETING: August 1, 2005 DA TE OF FINAL DOCUMENT: PREPARED BY: Josie S. Gabriel, Associate Plallller A. Proiect Setting The project site is approximately 11.46 acres and is located along the eastern side of Brandywine A venue across from Mendocino Drive, north of Main Street and south of Sequoia Street. The site is located in an urbanized area in the central eastern portion of the City of Chula Vista (See Exhibit A - Location Map). The site is a steeply graded area that slopes upward northeast from Brandywine A venue. The project site is currently vacant and has not been previously disturbed. Land uses surrounding the project site consist ofthe following: North: South: East: West: Single Family Residential Development Light Industrial Multi-Family Residential Development Single Family Residential Development B. Proiect Description The proposed project includes the construction of 104 residential townhouse units on approximately 7.17 acres of an 11.46-acre site (See Exhibit B - Site Plan). The remaining 4.29 acres will be preserved as a natural open space lot. The applicant proposes to construct eighteen 2-story townhouses over a 2-vehicle garage. In addition, the project proposes to develop four recreation areas, a tot lot, and five mini gazebo parks within the project site. Access to the project site will be from Brandywine Avenue. A 6-foot high retaining wall is proposed along the northern portion of the development area in order to separate the northern portion of the site from the natural open space lot. A General Plan Amendment (GP A) and Rezone are proposed to modify the current General Plan land use designation from RLM (Residential Low-Medium) to RM (Residential Medium) and change the zoning designation from R-I-10(H) Single Family Residential 10,000 minimum lot size, Hillside to R-2(P) One- and Two-Family Residential, Precise Plan. The project will also require Design Review approval and approval of a Tentative Map. At this time, the City is in the process of a General Plan Update (GPU). As part of the GPU, the proposed General Plan contemplates changing the existing 1 land use designation of the El Dorado Ridge project site from RLM (Residential Low-Medium) to RM (Residential Medium) in order to increase the density for development and maintain consistency with the surrounding residential development to the north, east, and west of the project site. In the event the GPU is adopted by the City Council prior to, or concurrent with the review and approval of this project, implementation of a GP A will no longer be required. In order to identify potential land use impacts associated with development under the adopted General Plan or the proposed GPU, two separate analyses are included in Section IX - Land Use and Planning of the Initial Study Checklist to analyze the project with and without the GP A. C. Compliance with Zoning and Plans General Plan The proposed project includes a General Plan Amendment (GP A) to modify the current General Plan land use designation from RLM (Residential Low-Medium) to RM (Residential Medium). At this time, the City is currently in the process of a General Plan Update (GPU). As part of the GPU, the proposed General Plan contemplates changing the existing land use designation of the EI Dorado Ridge project site from RLM (Residential Low-Medium) to RM (Residential Medium) in order to increase the density for development and to maintain consistency with the adjacent residential development. In the event the GPU as currently proposed is adopted by the City Council prior to the approval of this project, approval of a GP A will no longer be required. In order to identify potential land use impacts associated with the proposed development with GP A and without the GP A, two separate analyses have been provided below. Zoning The project site is within the R-1-10H (Single Family Residential 10,000 minimum lot size, Hillside) Zone. The proposal includes the rezoning of the site from R-1-10(H) to R-2(P) One- and Two-Family Residential, Precise Plan, allowing for the development of single-family dwellings, duplexes, attached single-family units, dwelling groups, accessory uses/buildings typically appurtenant to residential uses, and agricultural uses. The intent of the R-2 zoning designation is to designate areas for the lowest density multi-family dwelling units, such as duplexes, which retain the fundamental characteristics of a single-family unit, such as a private backyard. The purpose of assigning the Precise Plan modifying district (P) is to allow diversity of land uses, density, buildings, structures, landscaping and open spaces, as well as design review of architecture and signs through the adoption of specific conditions of approval for development of property in the city. Within the boundaries of the P district, the location, height, size and setbacks of buildings or structures, open spaces, signs and densities indicated on the precise plan shall take precedence over the otherwise applicable regulations of the underlying zone. Pursuant to Section 19.56.040 of the Chula Vista Municipal Code (CVMe), a "P" designation may be applied when one or more circumstances identified under the code have been met. Due to the physical characteristics of the project site and the surrounding residential uses, the proposed project qualifies for a P-Modifying District under the following circumstances: . Property is unique in terms of its physical characteristics, configuration, circulation, social or historic characteristics requiring special design; . Property is adjacent and contiguous to a zone allowing different uses, and the precise plan would allow a more compatible design; and . The underlying zoning does not allow adequate control or flexibility to design a project which is compatible with the uses in adjacent zones. 2 ----~._~ 3 Multiple Species Conservation Program (MSCP) Subarea Plan The Multiple Species Conservation Program (MSCP) Subarea Plan was prepared by the City of Chula Vista in coordination with the Federal and State Regulatory agencies in order to implement the MSCP Subregional Plan within the City of Chula Vista. The City Council adopted the MSCP Subarea Plan on May 13,2003. Subsequently, the Wildlife Agencies issued the City a Take Permit and signed the Implementing Agreement granting the City Take Authorization on January 11,2005. The project site is located within in the City of Chula Vista MSCP Subarea Plan boundary in an area designated as a "Development Area." Therefore, the project is subject to the requirements of the Habitat Loss Incidental Take (HUT) Ordinance. D. Public Comments On February 22, 2005, a Notice of Initial Study was circulated to property owners within a 500-foot radius of the project site. The public comment period ended on March 3, 2005. Staffreceived two verbal comments regarding existing views and hazardous waste. These issues have been addressed in the attached Initial Study Checklist. E. Identification of Environmental Effects An Initial Study conducted by the City of Chula Vista (including an attached Environmental Checklist form) determined that the proposed project would not have a significant environmental effect, and the preparation of an Environmental Impact Report will not be required. This Mitigated Negative Declaration has been prepared in accordance with Section 15070 of the State California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines. Air Ouality The project site is located within the San Diego Air Basin (SDAB). The proposed project will result in an increase in air pollutants during both the construction and operational phases of the project. In order to reduce air pollutants associated with the operational phases of the developmenf, "the applicant will be required to prepare and implement an Air Quality Improvement Plan (AQIP) pursuant to City's Growth Management Ordinance and Growth Management Program. The purpose of the AQIP is to provide for air quality improvements and energy conservation through improved project design and construction of structures that exceed mandated energy code requirements. By implementing the AQIP, the project will include design features that will reduce the increase of air pollutants associated with on-going operational phases of development. Therefore, no mitigation will be required during the operational phases of the project. During the construction phase of development, fugitive dust would be created during grading and construction activities. Although air quality impacts resulting from construction-related operations are potentially significant, they are considered short-term in duration since construction-related activities are a relatively short-term activity. In order to mitigate impacts associated with short-term construction related operations, dust control measures will be indicated as grading notes on the grading plans and implemented during grading operations in accordance with the rules and regulations of the County of San Diego Air 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. Biological Resources RECON prepared a Biological Technical Report (dated February 2003) which analyzed potential impacts associated with the development of 47 single family dwelling units on the entire 11.46-acre 4 project site. As a result of the biological impacts identified in the RECON report, the proposed project was redesigned in order to reduce impacts to sensitive species found on site. The' applicant now proposes to develop 104 townhouse units on approximately 7.17 acres and preserve approximately 4 acres as an open space area. In order to identify potential biological resource . impacts associated with the redesigned proposed project, an updated biological report was prepared by Vincent Scheidt (Impact Analysis and Mitigation Requirements, dated May 2005). As indicated in the updated biological report, the project site currently supports approximately 5.4 acres of Maritime succulent scrub (MSS), 5.9 acres of ruderal vegetation, a natural drainage of approximately 0.19 acre, and the remaining portion of the site along the southern edge of the property is developed land (see Exhibit C - Biological Resources Map). In addition, the site contains Otay tarplant and Snake cholla, both Narrow Endemic species covered by the City's MSCP Subarea Plan. The project site is located within in the City of Chula Vista MSCP Subarea Plan boundary in an area designated as a "Development Area." Under the Subarea Plan, the proposed project is subject to the requirements under the Habitat Loss Incidental Take (HUT) Ordinance. In accordance with the HUT Ordinance, those projects that are greater than one acre, contain sensitive biological resources, and are located outside of the "Covered Projects," must demonstrate compliance with the Ordinance and obtain Take Authority from the City of Chula Vista for impacts to Covered Species. The following is a summary of the findings contained in the updated biological report as required by the HUT Ordinance. Sensitive Plant Species The proposed project currently supports approximately 5.4 acres of Maritime succulent scrub (MSS). Maritime succulent scrub is a low-growing, open vegetation community dominated by common plant species such as encelia (Encelia), California sagebrush (Artemisia californica), and jojoba (Simmondsia chinensis). The MSS is considered a sensitive vegetation community under the Chula Vista MSCP Subarea Plan and is designated as a Tier 1 or rare upland community. The updated biological analysis concluded that the proposed project would directly impact 1.1 acres of MSS contained on the project site. The remaining 4.3 acres of MSS will be preserved within the proposed open space area; however, indirect impacts to the remaining MSS will result from edge effects such as, noise, lighting, runoff, domestic pets, landscaping, and potential dumping. Both direct and indirect impacts to the MSS vegetation are considered significant and will require mitigation as identified in Section F below to be implemented. The biological report identified two sensitive plant species on the project site, the Coast barrel cactus (Ferocactus viridescens) and the San Diego County Viguiera (Viguiera laciniata). The Coast barrel cactus is a low-growing, small barrel cactus species that grows in association with coastal sage scrub, chaparral, and grasslands within the City of Chula Vista. This species is a Covered Species under the Chula Vista MSCP Subarea Plan. Approximately 31 barrel cacti were seen on the south-facing slope of the project site entirely within the proposed open space area. Development of the proposed project will not result in impacts to this plant species; therefore, no mitigation is required for this species. Several dozen of the San Diego County Viguiera was also identified on the project site. This species is listed on List 2 of the California Native Plan Society's Inventory of Rare and Endangered Plants of California (CNPS 2001), which is considered endangered in California but more common elsewhere. Under the City of Chula Vista MSCP Subarea Plan, this plant species is not designated as a covered species. The San Diego County viguiera was observed in the MSS along the south-facing slope of the project site within the proposed open space area. The proposed development will not impact this plant species; therefore no mitigation is required. The updated biological report also identified two Narrow Endemic Species on the project site. The Otay tarplant (Hemizonia conjugens) and the Snake cholla (Opuntia californica = 0 serpentina). 5 Narrow endemic species are sensItive plant species limited to habitat conditions specific to southwestern San Diego County. Under the City's MSCP Subarea Plan, impacts to Narrow Endemic Species will be avoided to the maximum extent practicable. Where impacts are unavoidable, impacts must be limited to 20 percent of the total Narrow Endemic Species population within the Project Area. When Narrow Endemic Species are identified, Findings of Equivalency, as defined in Section 5.2.3.6 of the Subarea Plan, must be prepared in order to demonstrate the project design has met the requirements of the Subarea Plan prior to issuance of Take Authorization of covered Narrow Endemic Species. A Spring rare plant survey for the Otay tarp1ant and Snake Cholla was conducted in April and May of 2003 by the project biologists, Vincent Scheidt and Shannon Allen. The survey results concluded that the site contains 0.22 acre of Snake cholla and 1.98 acres of Otay tarplant, for a total of 2.2 acres of Narrow Endemic Species existing on site. The report determined that 0.04 acre of the Snake Cholla population and 0.34 acre of the Otay tarplant population would be directly impacted by the proposed development. In total, the project would impact 0.38 acre (17 percent) of the Narrow Endemic Species population within the project area which is under the 20 percent allowed under the City's MSCP Subarea Plan. By redesigning the proposed project and clustering development of the townhomes, impacts to Otay tarplant and Snake Cholla have been significantly reduced. Based on the Findings of Equivalency included in the updated biological report, the applicant demonstrated compliance with the Subarea Plan by modifying the project design in order to minimize impacts to the Otay tarplant and Snake Cholla. In addition, the project design preserves approximately 83 percent of the Narrow Endemic Species within the open space area, which will remain undeveloped. Although this project design has demonstrated to be the most environmentally sensitive design, impacts to the 0.38 acre of Narrow Endemic Species is 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. Sensitive Wildlife Species Common wildlife species of MSS were identified on the project site including Altna's- hummingbird (Calypte anna), house finch (Carpodacus mexicanus frontalis), brush rabbit (Sylvilagus bachmani), and Virginia opposum (Dedelphis virginiana). At the time RECON conducted their surveys of the project site, RECON noted the potential occurrence of the Quino checkerspot butterfly (Euphydryas editha quino) on the project site based on 2002 protocol survey information provided by the United States Fish and Wildlife Services (USFWS). The Quino checkerspot butterfly is a federally listed endangered species covered under the City's MSCP Subarea Plan. AQuino Checkerspot Butterfly Flight Season Survey was conducted in February and March of 2003 pursuant to United States Fish and Wildlife Services (USFWS) protocol by the project biologists, Vincent Scheidt and Shannon Allen. The surveys determined that no Quino checkerspot butterflies were present on the site; therefore, development of the site would not result in impacts to this species. RECON observed the presence of the Coastal California gnatcatcher (Polioptila calif arnica califarnica). The Coastal California gnatcatcher is listed as a federally threatened species, a California Department of Fish and Game (CDFG) species of special concern, and is a Covered Species under the City's MSCP Subarea Plan. A protocol survey for this species was conducted in March and April 2005. The survey identified a single pair with three fledglings (a total of five specimens), nesting, fledging, and foraging throughout the MSS habitat. The location of the nest is noted on Exhibit C. The updated biological report concluded that site development would result in measurable impacts to the gnatcatcher as a result of habitat removal. In addition, the proposed project would indirectly impact the gnatcatcher as a result of edge effects to the species. Impacts to the gnatcatcher are considered significant and require the implementation of mitigation measures 6 identified below in Section F. By implementing the proposed mitigation, impacts to this species will be reduced to a level below significance. Wetland Resources An ephemeral drainage feature currently bisects the MSS on the project site. The updated biological report confirms that this feature qualifies as a "waters of the United States" and "waters of the state" as defined by the California Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB), CDFG, and the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACOE). A Wetland Delineation was conducted on April 25, 2005 by the project biologist Vincent Scheidt, pursuant to the USACOE Wetlands Delineation Manual (Environmental Laboratory 1987). This feature is mostly unvegetated although patches of willows (Salix), mule fat (Baccharis glutinosa), and other wetland species are found along the length of the drainage in a broken distribution. The wetland delineation concluded that 0.17 acre classified as State wetlands and 0.02 acre as Federal wetlands. This includes both the vegetated and unvegetated wetland portions of the drainage. Impacts to this wetland feature are also regulated by the MSCP Subarea Plan under the Wetland Protection Program (WPP). In accordance with the WPP, development projects which contain wetlands are required to demonstrate that impacts to wetlands have been avoided to the greatest extent practicable. For unavoidable impacts to wetlands, the wetlands mitigation ratios identified in Table 5-6 of the MSCP Subarea Plan must be applied. The proposed project will result in impacts to 0.19 acre of the ephemeral drainage. Impacts to this wetland resource are considered significant and require mitigation to reduce impacts to below a level of significance. In addition, these impacts will require Federal and State regulated permitting. Please refer to Section F below for proposed wetland mitigation measures. Implementation of the mitigation measures identified below will reduce impacts to below a level of significance. Impacts Associated with Brush Management Activities The project proposes to implement a Fire Protection Plan (FPP) intended to protect structures from fire hazards while avoiding and/or minimizing impacts to sensitive biological resources identified on site. Due to the sensitivity of the MSS, Otay tarplant, and Snake Cholla identified within the open space area, brush management activities were required to be minimized. In compliance with the City's MSCP Subarea Plan, for those areas which contain MSS, selective weeding may be conducted by hand provided a City approved biologist is present during any fuel treatment activities. In compliance with the City's MSCP Subarea Plan, for areas supporting Otay Tarplant and Snake Cholla, brush management activities are prohibited unless the Chula Vista Fire Marshal deems it necessary under emergency circumstances to ensure public safety from potential fire hazards. In that event, brush management will be allowed and a qualified biologist must be present during clearing to prevent significant impacts to these two Narrow Endemic species. Irrigated manufactured slopes are included at portions between the open space area and the development. The Chula Vista Fire Marshal has approved the FPP and determined that the plan adequately protects and ensures public safety. Impacts associated with the brush management activities were quantified as part of the biological impact analysis. These impacts are considered significant and will be mitigated as indicated in Section F of this Mitigated Negative Declaration. Geology and Soils A Preliminary Geotechnical Investigation was conducted by Christian Wheeler Engineering (dated January 25, 2002) for the proposed project site. At the time the investigation was conducted, the applicant proposed the development of 47 single-family residential units on approximately 11.46 acres. The applicant has since modified the project design and had Construction Testing & Engineering, Inc. (CTE) prepare an updated geological report (dated August 11,2004). The updated geological report concluded that the site is suitable for the proposed residential development. The geological report further noted that project compliance with applicable Uniform Building Code 7 standards would adequately address any building safety concerns. In addition, the geological report identified a trace of the La Nacion Fault traversing through the western portion of the project site. No evidence of active faulting (Holocene movement) was observed during the subsurface investigation; however, in order to reduce impacts associated with potential active faulting and ensure stability beneath all structures, the mitigation proposed under Section F of this Mitigation Negative Declaration must be incorporated in the project design. Construction activities could result in potential siltation downstream. The applicant has prepared a Storm Water Management Plan (SWMP) has been prepared and will be implemented in compliance with the provisions of the California Regional Water Quality Control Board, San Diego Region Order No. 2001-01. The implementation of water quality best management practices (BMPs) identified in the SWMP during construction will be required in accordance with NPDES Order No. 2001-01. All portions of the development area disturbed during construction would either be developed or appropriately landscaped in compliance with the Chula Vista Municipal Code, Sections 19.36.090 and 19.36.110. The applicant will be implement all measures identified in the SWMP to the satisfaction of the City's Engineering Department and compliance with these measures will be monitored by the City. Therefore, the potential for the discharge of silt into the drainage system would be less than significant. . The project geotechnical report dated January 25, 2002 provides detailed measures to be implemented prior to and during construction including site preparation, observation of grading, processing of fill areas, and compaction and method of filling. By incorporating the recommendations of the geotechnical report into the final project plans, impacts to geology/soils would be reduced to level below significance. No additional mitigation measures are required. Hydrology and Water Ouality A drainage study was prepared by CDS Civil Engineers (dated December 13,2004) which describes the pre- and post-development drainage conditions. As discussed in the drainage study, the site has three drain areas with the primary drainage course flowing to Brandywine Avenue. The remaining drainages currently direct runoff to the neighboring properties to the northeast and th-e- south of the project site. An existing 42-inch public drainage system is located beneath Brandywine Avenue. The proposed project will require the installation of storm drain facilities, as well as a detention basin. By installing the detention basin and the necessary storm drainages identified on the proposed site plan, the development of the proposed project will not increase the flow beyond existing conditions or necessitate an increase in capacity of the existing storm water system. These properly designed drainage facilities will be installed at the time of 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 development. Due to the size and existing condition of the project site, the BMPs identified in the SWMP will be incorporated into the design of the project to reduce impacts to water quality. Such measures shall be designed to minimize discharge of pollutants into the storm drainage system. Preliminary BMPs include storm drain inlet protection system, source control, protection of stockpiles, protection of slopes, protection of all disturbed areas, protection of access, and perimeter containment measures including landscaped treatments throughout the project site. Construction and post-construction water quality BMPs will be incorporated into the final grading plans. In addition, a Water Quality Technical Report and Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) will be required at the time the grading plan is submitted for review and approval by the City. Based upon the proposed conceptual BMPs, conditions of the SWMP that include compliance with the NPDES Permit requirements, and implementation of standard engineering requirements, water quality impacts would be reduced to below a level of significance. 8 Land Use and Planning General Plan Proposed Project with General Plan Amendment (GP A) The project site is currently designated as Residential Low-Medium (RLM) under the adopted General Plan. This designation allows for the development of single-family detached dwelling units on medium size lots as typically found in areas west of Interstate 805 in the City of Chula Vista. Under the proposed GP A, the General Plan designation would be changed to Residential Medium (RM). This designation allows for small single-family, detached units on smaller lots, or attached units, such as duplexes or townhouses. The density for this designation is limited to 6 to 11 dwelling units per gross acre. By implementing the proposed GP A, the project proposes to develop 104 townhouse units at 9.1 dwelling units per acre which is consistent with the RM designation. In addition, by modifying the project design from single-family to attached multifamily units, the project will be consistent with the existing land uses to the north, west, and east of the property. In compliance with the existing General Plan, the project design proposes clustering of development in order to preserve the natural physical features of the site and to protect sensitive biological resources identified on the project site. Under Section 6.3 of the existing General Plan, Clustering of Residential Development can be applied as follows: . Clustering is permitted if it accomplishes preservation of the natural landform, aggregation of open space, and enhancement of land use compatibility, i.e. it results in a project which blends with the character of the surrounding neighborhood. In addition, the number of units permitted within the project shall not increase through clustering. . The resulting clustered project must be consistent with requirements of the General Plan designation, including density and unit type. The project proposes the clustering of residential townhouse units on 7.17 acres of an 11.46-acre site. Approximately 4 acres of open space area will remain. The applicant proposes to develop townhouses at a density of 9.1 dwelling units per acre, which is consistent with the clustering provisions of the General Plan and the density and character of the RM designation. By clustering the development, the project design reduces impacts sensitive biological resources found on the project site and preserves some of the site natural topography. With the proposed GP A, the project will not result in significant land use and planning impacts, and, therefore, no mitigation is required. Proposed Project Without GPA In the event the General Plan Update (GPU) as proposed were to be adopted prior to the approval of this proposed project, a GP A would no longer be required. As part of the GPU, the proposed General Plan changes the existing land use designation of the El Dorado Ridge project site from RLM (Residential Low-Medium) to RM (Residential Medium). The GPU also includes provisions for clustering development as adopted in the existing General Plan. If the proposed GPU were to be adopted, the project would be consistent with the allowed land use and the clustering of development. In addition, the proposed project would be consistent with the density permitted under this GPU RM designation which is 6 to 11 dwelling units per acre. If the GPU is adopted prior to consideration of the project, the project will be consistent with the General Plan Update and there are no impacts to land use and planning; therefore, no mitigation is required 9 Zoning The proposal includes a change in the existing rezoning designation from R-l-l OCR) to R-2(P) One- and Two-Family Residential, Precise Plan. In the event the City's proposed GPU is adopted prior to the approval of this proposed project, a rezone would still be required. Under the proposed R-2(P) designation, development may include single-family dwelling, duplexes, attached single-family units, dwelling groups, accessory uses/buildings to be utilized by the residents, and agricultural uses. The intent of R-2 zoning designation is to designate areas for the lowest density multi-family dwel1ing units, such as duplexes, which retain the fundamental characteristics of a single-family unit, such as a private backyard. In addition, R-2 zoning allows for an increase in the development density consistent with the General Plan designation. The purpose of assigning the Precise Plan modifying district (P) is to allow diversity of land uses, density, buildings, structures, landscaping and open spaces through the adoption of specific conditions of approval for development of property in the city. Within the boundaries of the P district, specifications indicated in the precise plan shall take precedence over the otherwise applicable regulations of the underlying zone. The R-2(P) designation required the applicant to establish a specific use for the site, density, building design, specify building height requirements, and provide building setbacks more appropriate for a townhome project. In addition, the applicant identified other requirements pursuant to Section 19.56.042 of the CYMC. By changing the current zoning designation to R-2(P), the applicant has made the proposed project consistent with the proposed General Plan designation of Residential Medium (RM). Noise Eilar Associates prepared an Acoustical Analysis Report for the proposed project (dated February 28, 2005). Currently, the surrounding land uses consist of residential development to the east, west, and north and light industrial to the south. Eilar Associates did not note any excessive noise being generated by these existing land uses. The report concluded vehicle traffic along Brandywine Avenue as the most significant source of noise generated adjacent to the project site. ~e following is a summary the findings found in the acoustical analysis. Temporary Construction Noise Construction activities have the potential to cause short-term noise impacts to noise-sensitive uses adjacent to the project site (i.e., single family residences). Noise produced by construction equipment varies substantially depending upon the type of equipment being used and its operation and maintenance. Noise impacts associated with construction activities typically occurs in several distinct phases, each with its own noise characteristics, including demolition, site preparation, and construction. Pursuant to Section l7.24.050(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 adjacent and surrounding areas of the project site, this provision of the Municipal Code applies to the project, which would ensure that residents would not be disturbed by construction noise during the most noise sensitive periods of the day. 10 Existing Noise Levels On-Site In order to determine the existing noise levels adjacent to the project site, a Larson Davis System 820 Integrating Sound Level Meter was used to measure the noise levels on July 9, 2002 approximately 30-feet from the western property line, facing Brandywine Avenue. The noise measurement was taken from this location on-site because it was considered to be the most noise-sensitive location. The current on-site noise level measured at 60.6 decibels adjusted for average conditions and at an equivalent noise level [dBA (Leq)]. Future Noise Levels Future roadway noise calculations were generated in order to calculate the future daytime average hourly noise level at various locations on the project site. Future noise levels were calculated to range from approximately 64 CNEL at the western property line (along Brandywine Avenue) to approximately 48 CNEL at the eastern property line. The noise report concluded that the overall anticipated noise levels would not exceed the City's standard limits (65 CNEL) for exterior noise. In addition, Eilar Associates further concluded that no sound attenuation barrier mitigation would be necessary to meet the City's 65 CNEL outdoor land-use noise requirement. Due to increase in future noise levels, structures located at the western property line fronting Brandywine Avenue will be exposed to interior noise levels which may exceed the City of Chula Vista and State of California 45 CNEL limit for interior habitable residential space. At the time Eilar Associated conducted their analysis, they could not analyze exterior-to-interior sound attenuations because detailed building plans were not available. The potential exposure to excessive interior noise associated with increased traffic noise levels is considered a significant impact; however the proposed mitigation identified under Section F of this Mitigated Negative Declaration will reduce the impacts to a level below significance. Transporta tiom raffic A Traffic Study was prepared by Federhart & Associates (dated February 4, 2005)in order to identify potential traffic impacts associated with the development of the proposed project. The proposed development is projected to generate 832 average daily trips (ADTs), with 13 inbound/53 outbound during AM peak hour and 58 inbound/25 outbound during PM peak hour. The nearby intersections of Brandywine Avenue/Main Street and Brandywine Avenue/Olympic Parkway currently operate at an acceptable levels of service (LOS) C. Brandywine Avenue is classified as a Class I Collector and has a design capacity to accommodate approximately 22,000 average daily trips (ADTs). According to the traffic study, approximately 6,800 ADTs are currently generated along Brandywine Avenue, which also operates at LOS C. Federhart & Associates concluded that the projected 832 ADTs from the proposed project would not significantly increase the ADT generated along Brandywine Avenue, nor would it create a significant delay at the intersections of Brandywine A venue/Main Street and Brandywine Avenue/Olympic Parkway. With the development of the proposed project, the cumulative ADTs generated along Brandywine Avenue is estimated to be approximately 7,300 ADTs. Since Brandywine Avenue is designed to accomodate 22,000 average daily trips, development of the proposed project would not significantly increase the traffic to Brandywine Avenue and Brandywine Avenue will continue to operate at a LOS C. Therefore, the project will not result in a significant increase to cumulative traffic or delay at the intersections of Brandywine Avenue/Main Street and Brandywine Avenue/Olympic Parkway. Access to and from the El Dorado Ridge project will be provided along Brandywine Avenue. The proposed site plan shows the entrance/exit driveway to be 52-feet wide with a narrow median in the 11 center dividing incoming and outgoing traffic. Potential safety and queuing impacts may occur at the project driveway if improvements are not made to the access point along Brandywine Avenue. Access impacts are mitigated with implementation of the proposed mitigation measures identified in Section F below. Parking Based on the Chula Vista Municipal Code parking ratio requirement for multi-family dwelling units of 2 parking spaces per each residential unit, the required parking for the proposal is 208 spaces. The proposed project is the development of 104 multi-family residential units (3-story), which includes a 2-vehicle garage for each resident. In total, the project will provide 208 spaces and an additional 32 parking spaces located on-site for guest parking. Therefore, no significant parking impacts will result from the proposed project. F. Mitigation Necessary to Avoid Significant Impacts Air Qualitv The following air quality mitigation requirements shall be shown on all applicable grading, and building plans as details, notes, or as otherwise appropriate, and shall not be deviated from unless approved in advance in writing by the City's Environmental Review Coordinator. 1. During construction, dirt and debris shall be washed down or swept up as soon as practicable to reduce the resuspension of particulate matter caused by vehicle movement over such material. Approach routes to the construction area shall be cleaned daily of construction-related dirt and debris. 2.

Wet wash the construction access point at the end of each workday if any vehicle travel on unpaved surfaces has occurred. . Provide sufficient perimeter erosion control to prevent washout of silty material onto public roads. Biological Resources 8. Prior to issuance of a grading peDTIit, the applicant shall mitigate impacts to MSS pursuant to Section 5.2.2 of the City's MSCP Subarea Plan. In compliance with the City's Subarea Plan, the applicant shall secure 5.4 acre-credits of MSS habitat in a City-approved Mitigation Bank or other approved location offering such credits. This assumes that the mitigation credits will be provided within the City's Preserve system. A 2: 1 mitigation ratio shall apply if mitigation is secured outside of the Preserve but in another City-approved location. 9. Prior to issuance of a grading peDTIit, the applicant shall obtain a Habitat Loss Incidental Take (HUT) PeDTIit from the City of Chula Vista for impacts to MSS, Otay tarplant, Snake Cholla, and the Coast California gnatcatcher in accordance with Section 17.35 ofthe CYMe. 10. Prior to issuance of a grading peDTIit, the applicant shall obtain appropriate peDTIits from the Resource Agencies (i.e., USACOE, CDFG, and RWQCB) for impacts to jurisdictional wetland resources. Section 5.2.4 of the City's Subarea Plan provides mitigation ratios for unavoidable impacts to wetlands (Table 5-6, page 5-18). In compliance with the City's Wetland Protection Program, mitigation measures proposed by the Federal or State agency must be equivalent or greater than those imposed by the City. 11. Prior to issuance of a grading permit, the applicant shall prepare a Wetland Mitigation Plan to the satisfaction of the Environmental Review Coordinator to mitigate impacts to wetland resources. The Plan must include, but not be limited to, an implementation plan, maintenance and monitoring program, estimated completion time, success criteria, and any relevant contingency measures. 12. Prior to initiating grading activities, pre-construction nesting surveys of all areas within 300 feet of any known California gnatcatcher or nesting rapt or location will be required. The results of the 13 survey will be provided in a report to the Environmental Review Coordinator for approval. If an occupied raptor or California gnatcatcher nest is identified during pre-construction surveys, noise reduction measures shall be incorporated into the construction plans and submitted to the Environmental Review Coordinator for review and approval.

Poway CA 9206", teL (aS8) 486-4931 June e. 2005 ATTACHMENT A MITIGATION MONITORING AND REPORTING PROGRAM (MMRP) El Dorado Ridf!e Pro;ect. 18-02-045. This Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program has been prepared by the City of Chula Vista in conjunction with the proposed El Dorado Ridge project. The proposed project has been evaluated in an Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration prepared in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and City/State CEQA Guidelines (IS-02-045). The legislation requires public agencies to ensure that adequate mitigation measures are implemented and monitored for Mitigated Negative Declarations. AB 3180 requires monitoring of potentially significant and/or significant environmental impacts. The Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program for this project ensures adequate implementation of mitigation for the following potential impacts(s): 1. Air Quality 2. Biological Resources 3. Geology/Soils 4. Hydrology and Water Quality 5. Noise 6. Transportation/Traffic MONITORING PROGRAM Due to the nature of the environmental issues identified, the Mitigation Compliance Coordinators shall be the Environmental Review Coordinator, and City Engineer of the City of Chula 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 and City Engineer. Evidence in written form confirming compliance with the mitigation measures specified in Mitigated Negative Declaration IS-02-045 shall be provided by the applicant to the Environmental Review Coordinator and City Engineer. The Environmental Review Coordinator and City Engineer will thus provide the ultimate verification that the mitigation measures have been accomplished. Table 1, Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program Checklist, lists the mitigation measures contained in Section F, Mitigation Necessary to Avoid Significant Effects, of Mitigated Negative Declaration IS-02-045, 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.

Would the project: a) Have a substantial adverse effect on a scenic vista? 0 0 0 0" b) Substantially damage scenic resources, including, but 0 0 0 0" not limited to, trees, rock outcroppings, and historic buildings within a state scenic highway? c) Substantially degrade the existing visual character or 0 0 0" 0 quality of the site and its surroundings? 1 Issues: Potentially Significant Impact Less Than Significant With Mitigation Incorporated Less Than Significant Impact No Impact d) Create a new source of substantial light or glare, which would adversely affect day or nighttime views in the area? o o o o Comments: a-d) The proposed project will not adversely affect an existing scenic vista. The site is located within an established, developed residential and limited industrial area. The proposed structures will be approximately 28 feet in height and will be located along the southern and western portions of the property. The project will be required to meet building standards and landscape requirements per the Chula Vista Municipal Code, which will further reduce potential impacts to the existing community character. It should also be noted that the General Plan does not identify Brandywine A venue as scenic roadway; therefore, the project will not impact a designated scenic roadway. The proposed project is currently vacant and consists of native vegetation on a gentle slope from east to west. Although the applicant proposes to develop approximately 7.17 acres of the site, the remaining 4.29 acres will be preserved as an open space area. Irrigated manufactured slopes are included at portions between the open space area and the proposed development. No development is proposed within the remaining open space, nor will future development be permitted. Therefore, impacts to the site's natural visual quality are reduced to below a level of significance. The proposal will incorporate downward-facing, non-spill exterior lighting within parking areas, and along portions of the site perimeter. The proposed lighting would comply with the lighting regulations of the Chula Vista Municipal Code and, therefore, would not result in a significant lighting impact to adjacent properties. Mitieation: No mitigation measures are required. II. AGRICULTURAL RESOURCES. In determining whether impacts to agricultural resources are significant environmental effects, lead agencies may refer to the California Agricultural Land Evaluation and Site Assessment Model (1997) prepared by the California Dept. of Conservation as an optional model to use in assessing impacts on agriculture and fannland.

Issues: Potentially Significant Impact Lcss Than Significant With Mitigation Incorporated Less Than Significant Impact No Impact Comments (cont.): e) The proposed project will require the installation of storm drain facilities and a detention basin. By installing the detention basin and the necessary storm drainages identified on the proposed site plan, the development of the proposed project will not increase the flow or capacity of the existing storm water system. Therefore, the project will not result in impacts to the environment associated with the installation of new storm drain facilities and a detention basin. f) The project site is within the potable water service area of the Otay Water District (District). Pursuant to correspondence from the District, the project may be serviced from existing potable water mains. No new or expanded entitlements would be necessary to serve the proposed project. g) See XVLa. and b. h) The project will be served by Pacific Waste Services. Solid waste generated by the project will be disposed at the Otay Landfill. The development is not anticipated to generate a significant amount of solid waste which would exceed the capacity of the Otay Landfill. The applicant will be required to implement a recycling program for the residents of the development. Therefore, impacts to the Otay Landfill's capacity are less than significant. i) The applicant has consulted with the City's Environmental and Conservation Services Department in order to determine compliance with the federal, state, and local regulations related to solid waste. The applicant will be required to implement a recycling program for the residents of the development. Therefore, the proposed project will comply with federal, state and local regulations related to solid waste and impacts are considered to be less than significant. Miti2:ation: No mitigation measures are required. XVII. THRESHOLDS Will the proposal adversely impact the City's Threshold Standards? A.

However, as discussed in Section E of the Mitigated Negative Declaration, sensitive habitat and wildlife will be impacted by the proposed development. Appropriate mitigation measures will be implemented pursuant to the City's MSCP Subarea Plan to reduce impacts to below a level of significance. b) As described in the Mitigated Negative Declaration, significant 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 future projects, cumulative impacts associated with air quality, biological resources, and traffic are considered significant. However, the City has implemented several plans and programs focused on reducing air pollutions, regulating impacts to sensitive biological resources, and d~~eloping road improvements to relieve traffic. As indicated in the Mitigated Negative Declaration, the applicant will be required to comply with the City's regulations and implement mitigation measures to reduce impacts to below a level of significance. Therefore, cumulative impacts are considered to be less than significant. c) See the "Air Quality", "Biological Resources", "Geology and Soils", "Noise", and "Transportation/Traffic" discussions in Section E of the Mitigated Negative Declaration; all identified potential impacts would be mitigated to below a level of significance. 24 ..............m..........______._.__._..._.__.........___._..._......._m....~._.._._......._._..___._...._.__ .......m............._...__.__.m..__..__._....__..____.._____..__......_____n m..........__........._........_..... n..____.._..___ XIX.

Otay Project, LP (Otay Ranch Company) has applied to amend the Village Seven Sectional Planning Area (SPA) Plan Land Use Districts Map to re-designate the alley product lots within the Site Utilization Plan Neighborhood R-2 from SF-4 to RM-1. This designation is required for densities greater than 8 units per acre in conformance with the Village Seven SPA Plan and the Otay Ranch General Development Plan (GDP). The Environmental Review Coordinator has reviewed the proposed project for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined that the proposed project was adequately covered in previously adopted Final Second Tier EIR (EIR-04-06), for the Otay Ranch Village Seven SPA Plan and Tentative Maps. Thus, no further environmental review or documentation is necessary. RECOMMENDATION: That the Planning Commission adopt attached Resolution PCM-05-17 recommending that the City Council approve the Village Seven SPA Amendment to re-designate the alley product portion lots of Neighborhood R-2 from SF-4 to RM-1. BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: Not Applicable DISCUSSION: 1. Background On October 14, 2004, the City Council approved the Village Seven SPA Plan. The SPA Plan depicted single-family lots in Neighborhood R-2 on the Site Utilization Plan (see Attachment 2). However, the 170 alley lots shown on the tentative map, which range in size from 2, nO-sq. ft. to 3, 190-sq. ft., covering an area of approximately 11.4-acres and proposing a density of 14.9 dwelling units per acre were shown on the Land Use Districts Map as SF-4 instead ofRM-1 (see Attachment 3). The Village Seven SPA Land Use Districts definitions are as follows: Page 2, Item_ Meeting Date 08/10/05 VILLAGE SEVEN SPA LAND USE DISTRICTS DEFINITIONS SYMBOL GENERAL DESCRIPTION SF3 Single Family Three: District which permits single family housing located on lots >5,000 square feet SF4 Single Family Four: District which permits single family housing located on lots < 5,000 square feet. RM1 Residential Multi-Family One: District which permits housing ranging from 8 units/acre up to 14.9 units/acre including small lot single family, alley, duplex, townhouse and stacked flats product types RM2 Residential Multi-Family Two: District which permits housing at densities from 15+ units/acre. CPF Community Purpose Facility: District which permits uses established pursuant to the Community Purpose Facilities requirements of the P-C Planned Community Zone OS/P1 Open Space/Park One: District which permits developed or usable open space and park uses, and may include naturalized open space This amendment is "clean-up" in nature to the Village Seven SPA Plan, since the approved tentative map for this portion of Village Seven showed lots designed for the alley product that would have required the RM -1 land use designation. This amendment will allow the property development standards in the RM -1 residential district to change the front yard setback to an entry feature porch, veranda or semi-private courtyard to be determined by Design Review in the Planned Community (PC) District Regulations. Based on the Land Use Districts Map and Definitions, the alley product lots depicted on the concurrently approved Otay Ranch Company subdivision (Tentative Map PCS-05-09) should have been designated RM-l (see Attachment 4). In addition, the applicant is requesting flexibility to provide a more substantial semi-public courtyard in the front yard than what is allowed by the Planned Community (PC) Property Development Standards. An 8-ft. setback is currently required for a porch or veranda entry feature or a 6-ft. setback is required for a semi-private courtyard, and the main residence setback for an alley product is a minimum 10-ft. (see Attachment 5). The Otay Ranch Company is requesting these development standards be determined based on the design of the alley project. Page 3, Item_ Meeting Date 08/10/05 All multi-family land use districts (RM-1 and RM-2) developments must be reviewed and approved by the Design Review Committee. The project proposes semi-public courtyards, which having a fixed front yard setback would be prohibited unless the setbacks were granted the flexibility to be determined by Design Review (see Attachment 6). 2. Site Characteristics The alley product lots are located in the hub of the Otay Ranch Company portion tentative map, surrounding the private pedestrian park. The overall tentative map shows that the only developable portion currently is the northern quadrant. The southern portion is surrounded by the "VORT AC," the 50-acre parcel owned by the FAA. 2. General Plan. Zoning and Land Use General Plan The City's General Plan and Otay Ranch GDP designated the land within the Otay Valley Parcel for urban villages that are transit-oriented and pedestrian friendly. Otay Ranch villages are intended to contain higher residential densities and a variety of mixed-uses in the "Village Cores," surrounded by single-family homes in the secondary residential areas outside of the village cores. The Neighborhood R-2 planning area is a secondary residential area of Village Seven. Zoning The subject property is currently zoned Planned Community (PC), and within the Village Seven SPA Plan Planned Community (PC) District Regulations the Neighborhood R-2 is designated Single Family Four (SF-4). The proposal is to re-designate the alley product lots Residential Multi-Family One (RM-1). Land Use Village Seven is currently undergoing grading operations in both the Otay Ranch Company and McMillin Company Tentative Map portions. The Sweetwater Union High School District High School 50-acre High School #13 site, primarily located in the McMillin map portion, was recently graded and delivered to the school district. 3. Proposal The applicant proposes to amend (a) the Village Seven Land Use Districts Map and (b) the Planned Community (PC) District Regulations in order to: (1) Designate the Neighborhood R - 2 alley product lots RM -1, and Page 4, Item_ Meeting Date 08/10/05 (2) to allow for design review flexibility to the fixed front yard setback requirement for pedestrian-oriented entry features such as porches, verandas and semi-public courtyards. 4. Analysis The proposed amendment to the Village Seven SPA Plan Land Use District Map and the Planned Community (PC) District Regulations for front yard setbacks provides a necessary correction and the potential for flexibility in evaluating and approving the alley products proposed in Village Seven. The Land Use District Map amendment is a correction to an inadvertent oversight in the review and approval process of the Village Seven SPA Plan. It is necessitated by the fact that both the housing lot type (alley) and density (14.9 units/acre) require the RM-1land use district designation in order to be developed. With regards to the Planned Community (PC) District Regulation change requested, it appears that the need for flexibility in the fixed front yard setback requirement for pedestrian-oriented entry features such as porches, verandas and semi-public courtyards is warranted. The open space provision for each ofthe alley product lots are somewhat constrained because ofthe unique alley lot dimensions (average 34 x 80) and the fact that each unit must be detached. The type ofhousing unit necessary at the prescribed density usually requires that the product be long, tall and narrow, with a two or three story profile served by a pedestrian only entry in the front yard, and attached two-car garage in the rear yard, a zero lot line side yard on one side, and a relatively small (10-ft.) side yard dimension on the other. This leaves the front yard area as the only other open space opportunity. The Planned Community (PC) District Regulations currently require a minimum 8- ft. setback to an entry feature such as a porch or veranda, and a minimum 6-ft. setback for a semi-public courtyard, even though the main residence setback may only be 10- ft. for alley product. This requirement could conceivably limit some building envelops to providing only 2 -ft. deep entry feature porches or verandas, and 4-ft. deep semi-public courtyards, unless the main residence was set further back. The request to allow design review flexibility for front yard pedestrian features such as porches, verandas, and semi-public courtyards will allow for more usable open space amenities to be created for the alley product, while also providing the potential for greater variation in the main residence building setbacks along the street. The minimum dimensions for porches, verandas, and semi-public (front yard) courtyards for lots less than 40-ft. wide is 60-sq. ft. with a 6-ft. minimum dimension, requiring the other dimension to be a minimum 10- ft. The required standard for deeper and wider dimension porches, verandas or courtyard features will provide for a more usable open space amenity for alley product residents. Page 5, Item_ Meeting Date 08/10/05 CONCLUSION: Staffbelieves that the proposed amendment to the Village Seven SPA Plan correcting the Land Use District designation and modifying the Planned Community (PC) District Regulations are consistent with the Otay Ranch GDP policies, and recommends approval of the amendment.
