ITEM TITLE:
SUBMITTED BY:
A. BACKGROUND
1. The applicant has submitted a tentative subdivision map known as Casa De Miguel,
Chula Vista Tract 80-17, for the development of 42,630 sq. ft. of land located at 436 "F"
Street in the R-3 zone into a one lot condominium project consisting of 30 units.
2. On April 23, 1980 the Planning Commission adopted the Negative Declaration on
IS-80-31, which is herewith forwarded for City Council adoption.
B. RECOMMENDATION:
Concur with Planning Commission recommendation.

D. DI SCUSS ION
1. Existing site characteristics.
The proposed project is comprised of six parcels, totalling 0.98 acres (measuring
approximately 150' x 90') located on the south side of the 400 block of "F" Street,
360 feet west of Fourth Avenue. There are three parcel s which front on "F" Street, each
developed with a single family dwelling. The remaining three parcels are vacant landlocked
properties located south of the other three parcels. The project site slopes gently to
thl? south draining into a natural drainage channel which traverses the rear of the property.

b. The development will consist of two and three story structures. The ground
floor of the three story structures will consist of 26 carports. A total of 48 parking
spaces (including the carports) is provided in accordance with code requirements. The
Engineering Department is recommending that the proposed two way driveway on the east
side of the property have an alley type approach .instead of the driveway approach, there-
by allowing easy ingress and egress.
c. In 1969 the City Council established boundaries for a Civic Center Design
District which included the subject property as well as other parcels in the immediate
area of the Civic Center. The district regulations require the Planning Commission to
r'eview and approve plans for bundings to insure that the buildings will be in harmony
and compatible with the Civic Center development. The ordinance governing this review
states that any well designed contemporary or traditional architectural style would be
appropritate whereas extreme architectural styles would be deemed incompatible. The con-
temporary Spanish architectural design of the bundings features a combination of roof
designs varying from pitched, shed, and flat, using red mission tile. The exterior
elevations will be ivory colored stucco wHh blue ceramic tile for accent purposes. In
addition, blue fabric awnings wiil be used over some of. the windows. The wall of the
patios and balconies will be stucco. The Planning Commission and Design Review Committee
concluded that the buildings would be compatible with the Civic Center architecture.
d. The project has been designed to comply with the condominiu~ requirements.
Each of the units will have private patios or balconies which exceed the minimum area
and most of the units have two separate private areas. .All of the required storage will
be located adjacent to the units. The one bedroom units will have 150 cu. ft. of storage
and the two bedroom units will have storage ranging from 200 cu. ft. to 380 cu. ft.
The code requires 150 cu. ft. for one bedroom units and 200 cu. ft. for two bedroom units.

DATE: December 13, 1979
A.
Project Setting
The project site involves six parcels located at 432, 436 andf438
"F" Street. Three single family ;dwellings are located on the
three lots fronting on F St. the remaining three lots ;
south of the these lots. Adjacent land uses consist of Anthony's
School and parking lot to the east, multiple family units to the south
and west, and F St. and the civic Center to the north. I
,
The site, which will be consolidated into one parcel, supportk
abundant vegetation, including many mature trees located
throughout the property.
i
I
I
I
The applicant proposes to construct 30 one and two bedroom I
condominium units. A swimming pool and 49 on-site parking
spaces are also planned. The applicant has indicated that I
approximately 10 mature trees will be removed through grading,
for the project which will slope down away from F st. I
Project Description
B.
C. Compatibility with zoning and plans.
The project is located within the R-3 zone and will result iJ a
density of 30.65 units per acre. The proposal is in conformance
with zoning and in basic consistency with the General Plan. '
D. Identification of environmental effects
1. Soils
i
The Engineering Dept. has indicated that expansive soils are
present on site. A soils report shall be required and
incorporation of recommendations contained therein will'
reduce this impact to an acceptable level.
2. Noise
A noise analysis (National Research Program Report 117)
" '
"
/ 0 oq l-
"
(
-2-
(
of existing traffic volumes on F St. was conducted to
determine potential noise exposure. The analysis indicated
that the proposed structure would be subject to 67 dB or
lower noise levels eminating from passing vehicle traffic.
Since conventional construction may reduce interior noise
intrusion by as much as 20 dB, the .resultant estimates
indicate that a level of 47 dB may be reached. This estimate
indicates an unacceptable noise level and may require
mitigation. A noise analysis conducted by a qualified
acoustician should be prepared incorporating any recommendations
to assure acceptable noise levels.
3. Schools
The local junior high school and elementary school are
currently operating in excess of avilable classrooms. The
local high school is operating under its present capacity.
The applicant will be required to submit fees to the
appropriate school districts to ensure additional or alternate
classroom space for new students.
4. Parks
The project is located within City Park Dist. #3 which has
8.6 acres of developed parkland. Current park acreage
requirements amount to 22.4 acres within this district.
Fees will be required in lieu of parkland dedication to
mitigate anticipated impacts.
5. Aesthetics
The applicant proposes to remove approximately 10 mature
trees (ranging from fruit trees and pepper trees to palm
trees). The location and size of these trees have been
plotted on the parking plan submitted by the applicant. The
applicant shall ~ake every effort to retain existing trees
where possible. The Design Review Committee shall consider
the disposition of all existing trees on site.
6 Traffic
The level of service presently accounted for on F St. is
rated "0" and with the estimated 240 trips per day generated
by this project, it will do nothing but aggravate this low ~
service level. Traffic signal fees will be charged to help
offset the costs for left turn phasing at the intersection
of F St. and 4th Ave. thereby reducing some traffic congestion
problems in the area.
E. Mitigation necessary to avoid siqnificant effects
1. A soils report shall be prepared and recommendations
incorporated into the project.

2. A noise analysis shall be prepared by a qualified
acoustician with recommendations incorporated into the. project.
(
(
3. School fees will be required to ensure classroom space
for new students.
4. Fees in lieu of parkland dedication and improvement
will be required.
5. The disposition of existing on site trees shall be
reviewed by the Design Review Committee.
6. Traffic signal fees will be charged to help offset
the cost for signal improvements.
F. Findings of no significant impact
1. The site is void of any endangered wildlife; however,
there is an abundant variety of mature trees present. The
Design Review Committee process will ensure that existing
trees will be preserved and included in the planning design
where feasible. There are no geological hazards present
in the project vicinity. Impacts due to expansive soils
can be mitigated.
2. The proposed project is in conformance with the General
Plan and associated elements and is not anticipated to achieve
short term to the disadvantage of long term environmental
goals.
3. All potential impacts can be mitigated to an insignificant
level and there are no impacts forseen which could interact
to create any significant cumulative effects on the environment.
4. The project wil.l not cause any substantial increase in
ambient noise levels and no significant source of hazardous
emissions will result.
