Public hearing - Consideration of precise plan guidelines for Otay Industrial Park
at Otay Valley Road and Nirvana Avenue in I-P zone
ITEM TITLE Resolution ~/~~~- Adopting precise plan guidelines for development in Otay
Industrial Park
SUBMIT ED BY Director of Planning
ITEM E~PLANAT ION
A. BA KGROUND
1. In March, 1973 the Otay Industrial Park consisting of 98 acres was zoned I-P
(Gener 1 Industrial with the Precise Plan Modifying District attached). Subsequently, a
tentative subdivision map was approved dividing the property into 25 lots, two of which
were 1 ter resubdivided into 8 lots, resulting in a park with 31 lots with emphasis on
auto d'smantling and storage. In anticipation that only small or temporary buildings
would a involved, the subdivision map was considered as satisfying the requirement for
precis .plan approval. In addition to the subdivision map, CC&R's were recorded and
guidelines for the development of the Otay Industrial Park were drafted by the developer.
The CC R's and guidelines were intended to take the place of precise plan guidelines which
are no mally adopted at the time of rezoning.
2. The Industrial Park suffered from financial problems and went into bankruptcy. The
fencin and irrigation systems which had been installed were vandalized and much of the
landsc ping died. The CC&R's have never been enforced since an association is not function-
ing an the development guidelines have never progressed past the draft stage. However,
all de elopments which have been approved by the City Council, Planning Commission or staff
under he precise plan procedure have been reviewed for their conformity to these draft
guidelines and many of the requirements listed in the CC&R's. This was necessary because
the Ci y had not been successful in getting the present owner to enforce the CC&R's and
to mai tain the park in the manner originally contemplated.
3. The development which has occurred in the Otay Industrial Park has involved uses
which equire only portable buildings, or in some cases relatively small industrial
buildi gs. Various applicants have complained about the need to hold public hearings
before both the Planning Commission and the City Council for relatively small developments
in a irly remote part of town. Establishment of appropriate development guidelines would

C. DISCUSSION
1 Staff has recently met with Mr. Dan Kelley, who represents the owners of the
vacan properties as well as certain developed leased sites within the park, to discuss
the p oposed guidelines. Mr. Kelley has stated his concurrence with the guidelines and
has a pressed to the staff the importance of having adopted standards or guidelines which
can b administered by the staff and handed out to a prospective lessee.
2 The major change in processing which would occur with the adoption of these guide-
lines would be that development plans would be approved by the Zoning Administrator and
the f es and time required for a public hearing before the Planning Commission and
anoth r before the City Council would be greatly reduced.

The recorded CC&R's prohibit the use of commercial coaches as a permanent building
lure within the park; however, several lessees, as well as the developer of the park,
expressed an interest in allowing commercial coaches under certain conditions. The
> Director of Building and Housing has expressed no objection since our own city
presently allows commercial coaches as permanent facilities in commercial and
trial areas, so long as they do not exceed 25% of the total floor area of a business.
end more public agencies (County and schools) are utilizing commercial coaches as
gent office/classroom space. The very nature of industrial salvage operations being
;led in this area lend such operations to the use of commercial coaches, and such
's resemble metal industrial buildings if skirted. Their visibility is limited by
of the peripherel fencing on each lot.
