A special meeting of the City Planning Commission of Chula Vista,
California was held on the above date beginning at 7:00 p.m. with
the following members present: Chandler, Smith, G. Johnson, O'Neill
and Renneisen. Absent (with previous notification) R. Johnson and

ORAL COMMUNICATIONS
Chairman Chandler called for oral communications and none were
presented.
1. PUBLIC HEARING (Cont.) Consideration of proposed amendments
to the General Development Plan and Schedule
of E1 Rancho del Rey P-C zone.
Director of Planning Peterson advised that this item had been
continued from the meeting of March 22nd at the request of the
City Attorney. He informed the Commission that the applicant had
submitted additional information and that the Engineering Department
and Planning Department were still reviewing the report. He informed
the Commission that there has been some concern by the Council over
the delays on this item and therefore the City Manager is interested
in expediting it if possible. For that reason staff is asking that
the item be continued to May 3rd.
Chairman Chandler pointed out that that was not a regular meeting
date and asked if staff was sure a report and recommendation could
be ready in time.
Mr. Peterson responded that a report could be ready but that he
would feel more comfortable with the May 17th date as that would
allow time to meet with representatives of the Gersten Company to
discuss the report prior to the Planning Commission meeting. He
informed the Commission that the material submitted by Gersten's
consultants is quite technical and detailed and deals in an area in
which staff is not particularly expert.
Chairman Chandler expressed some reservations about scheduling the
item for May 3rd and then having to continue it again to May 17th.
Commissioner Renneisen felt that the item is very important and that
staff should not be unduly rushed in the preparation of the report
and recommendation.
-2- April 19, 1978
Commissioner Smith asked if there were many items on the agenda
for the meeting of May 10th.
Mr. Peterson stated that there were at least two Environmental
Impact Reports but that he wasn't sure of just how many more items
were on the agenda for the 10th, but there were quite a few items
on the agenda for the meeting of April 26th. He stated that he
thought that the E1 Rancho del Rey items should be heard at a
special meeting when no other business is before the Commission.
Commissioner O'Neill stated that he thought that the meeting should
take place when the staff was ready and not before.
Chairman Chandler opened the public hearing and no one wished to
speak.
MSUC (Renneisen-Smith) The public hearing on the consideration of
proposed amendments to the General Development Plan and Schedule of
E1 Rancho del Rey P-C zone was continued to a special meeting on

Chairman Chandler explained to the audience, who had just arrived,
that Item #1 on the agenda had just been continued to May 17th.
2. PUBLIC HEARING: Consideration of Specific Plan for E1 Rancho Del Rey area.
Director of Planning Peterson informed the Commission that this
item should be considered along with Item #1, and staff is recommending
continuance to May 17, 1978.
This being the time and place as advertised, the public hearing was
opened. No one wished to speak.
MSUC (G. Johnson-R. Renneisen) The public hearing on the consideration
of Specific Plan for E1 Rancho del Rey be continued to a special
meeting of May 17, 1978.
