Page 2
A. P-C zones may be established on parcels of land which are suitable
for, and of sufficient size to be planned and developed in a manner
consistent with the purposes of this chapter and the objectives of
this division. No P-C zone shall include less than fifty acres of
contiguous lands;
B. All land in each P-C zone, or approved section thereof, shall be held
in one ownership or under unified control unless otherwise authorized
by the planning commission. For the purposes of this chapter, the
written consent or agreement of all owners in a P-C zone to the
proposed general development plan and general development schedule
shall be deemed to indicate unified control.
C. All land in each P-C zone, or any section thereof, shall be subject
to the requirement that adequate land be designated for "community
purpose facilities," as defined in Section lg.04.055. A total of

population shall be designated for such facilities in any planned
community, and shall be so designated in the Sectional Planning Area
(SPA) Plan(s) for each planned community. This total acreage
requirement may be reduced only if the City Council determines, ~n
conjunction with its adoption of a SPA Plan, that a lesser amount of
land is needed, based on availability of shared parking with other
facilities, or other community purpose facilities that are guaranteed
to be made available to the community. Any shared parking
arrangements pursuant to this section shall be guaranteed regardless
of any future changes in occupancy of facilities.
SECTION III: That Section 19.48.040 of Chapter 19.48 of the Chula Vista

this category, which are compatible with the permitted
uses in the planned community.
As to any land uses designated on the sectional
planning area plan for use as community purpose
facilities:
i. Conditional Interim Uses Permitted After 5 Years.
The City Council, upon receiving the advice and
recommendation of the Planning Commission, may,
after five {5) years of non-use as a community
purpose facility after the issuance of the first
certificate of occupancy on a structure in SPA
Plan areas, in accordance with the procedures for
issuance of conditional use permits contained in
Chapter 19.14 of this Code, conditionally permit
interim, non-permanent, non-residential uses
which are not community purpose facility uses
Ordinance No. 2452A
Page 8
that Council finds {1) the interim use to be
compatible with the surrounding land uses
that the community purpose facility use is not
imminently likely; and {3} that denial of an
interim use would constitute a further hardship
to the landowner. If an interim use is permitted
by the City Council, it shall in no event be
permitted for longer than 5 years, and shall be
terminable within said 5 year period upon one
year's advance notice of intent to terminate said
conditional use permit by the City Council. City
Council shall give such one year notice upon
being advised of a sale or lease by the owner to
a purchaser or tenant for use as a community
purpose facility.
ii. Review by City Council. For each approved
sectional planning area plan on which is
designated one or more community purpose facility
uses, City Council shall review said plan _
annually for the purpose of determining the
actual market interest in the purchase or lease
of land so designated and the marketing activity
associated therewith.
2. Development standards (i.e., permitted land uses, lot coverage,
height and bulk requirements, signs, etc.) for each land use
area and designation.
3. Development to occur in phases shall be so indicated on the
plan. A skeletal plan shall be prepared for those areas
indicated for future development. The skeletal plan shall
indicate circulation, building locations, preliminary grading,
areas devoted to landscaping, density and parking. The
submission of each subsequent phase will require a new
application and a fee as presently designated, or as may in the
future be amended, in the master fee schedule, for a
modification of a sectional planning area plan, together with
the required detail plans.
