ESTABLISHING AND AMENDING CERTAIN TIME LIMITATIONS
WITH RESPECT TO THE REDEVELOPMENT PLAN FOR THE
TOWN CENTRE I REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Chula Vista placed on Second Reading and
adopted Ordinance No. 1691 on July 6, 1976 approving and adopting the Redevelopment Plan
(the "Redevelopment Plan") for the Town Centre Redevelopment Project; and,
WHEREAS, the Redevelopment Agency of the City of Chula Vista (the "Agency") has
been designated as the official redevelopment agency to carry out in the City of Chula Vista
the functions and requirements of the Community Redevelopment Law of the State of
California (Health and Safety Code Section 33000 et seq.) and to implement the
Redevelopment Plan; and,
WHEREAS, Section 33333.6 of the Community Redevelopment Law established
certain limitations on the incurring and repaying of indebtedness and the duration of
redevelopment plans, which limitations apply to every redevelopment plan adopted on or
before December 31, 1993; and,
WHEREAS, Section 33333.6 further provides that unless a redevelopment plan
adopted prior to January 1,1994 already contains limitations which comply with that Section,
the legislative body shall adopt an ordinance on or before December 31, 1994 to amend the
redevelopment plan either (1 } to amend an existing time limit that exceeds the applicable time
limit established by that Section, or (2) to establish time limits that do not exceed the
provisions of that Section; and,
WHEREAS, the time limit for establishing loans, advances, and indebtedness was
established by Ordinance 2146 (placed on Second Reading and adopted April 22, 1986) as
July 6, 2001 and does not exceed the time limit established by Section 33333.6(a), and
therefore no amendment is required relative to such limitation; and,
WHEREAS, the time limit on the effectiveness of the Redevelopment Plan, as set forth
in Section 1000 of the Redevelopment Plan, currently scheduled to terminate on July 6, 2001
twenty-five (25) years from the date of adoption of the plan, does not exceed the time limit
established by Section 33333.6(b), and therefore no amendment is required relating to such
limitation; and,
WHEREAS, the Redevelopment Plan as amended does not contain a limitation for the
repayment of debt as required by Section 33333.6 and, therefore the City Council is required
to establish a limit in conformance with the requirements of Section 33333.6 prior to
December 31, 1994; and,

WHEREAS, the establishment of time limits as required by Section 33333.6 does not
constitute a project under California Environmental Quality Act and is therefore categorically
exempt from environmental review; and,
WHEREAS, Health and Safety Code Section 33333.6(e)(2) provides that the limitations
established by this Ordinance shall apply to the Redevelopment Plan as if the Redevelopment
Plan had been amended to include these limitations; however, neither the City nor the Agency
is required to comply with any of the procedural requirements of Article 12 of the
Redevelopment Law pertaining to the amendment of redevelopment plans when adopting this
Ordinance.
