given by the publication in a newspaper of general circulation in the City at

Declaratior. cn IS-77-28 fc~ the uevelOp~~ient. ,
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED AS FOLLOWS:
1. From the facts presented to the Planning Commission, the Commission
finds that the subdivision map known as Garden Views is consistent with the
General Plan for the City of Chula Vista as follows:
a. Land Use Element. The General Plan designates the site for medium
density residential use to be developed at 4-12 du/ac. This project achieves a
gross density of 6.2 units per acre under the R-1-5 zone and thus is consistent
with the Ueneral Plan designation.
b. Circulation Element. The proposed new street, a cul-de-sac, will
provide adequate residential access onto K Street. The proposed right of way
width meets General Plan standards.
c. Housing Element. The proposed single family residential development
provides additional needed family residences in the community. The project is
consistent with the General Plan residential proposals.
d. Conservation, Open Space, and Parks and Recreation Elements. The
project site is not designed by the General Plan for park or open space, and no
public need has been identified for this property.
1 ,
' e. Seismic Safety Element. The project site is not subject to ~,'
inundation or located on a designated flood plain. The La Nacion fault, identi-
fied as potentially active, is located approximately one mile east of this site.
The report will be reviewed by the Environmental Review Committee and, based on
their findings, applicable city codes and requirements will dictate development
techniques to ameliorate hazards.
f. Safety Element. This project provides necessary public improvements
and fire hydrants in conformance with city standards. The site is located within
a 3 minutes response time zone for Fire Station No. 1, located approximately 1~
miles north of the project site.
g. Noise Element. The Noise Element recognizes the need to continue to
utilize the City's Environmental Review process to evaluate and ameliorate noise
impact. The subdivider has submitted an Initial Study of environmental impact
for the City's consideration.
h. Scenic Highways Element. The site does not abut a "Scenic Highway"
or "Gateway."
i. Bicycle Routes Element. K Street is designated as a major bicycle
route adjacent to the proposed project. Space limitations preclude the construc-
tion of a bike path along this route.
j. Pubiic Buildings Element. Public buildings are neither proposed nor
required on the subject site.
2. The Planning Commission recommends to the City Council the approval of
Tentative Map PCS-77-3 for Garden Views, subject to the following conditions:
• a. One fire hydrant shall be located at the end of the cul-de-sac.
b. A homeowners' association shall be formed far the maintenance of the
common landscaped areas adjacent to K Street and Fourth Avenue, and

the centerline, if appropriate, to meet City standards), Garden
Place, and at the southerly terminus of Fig Avenue and Guava Avenue.
These improvements shall consist of but not be limited to curb, gutter,
sidewalk, pavement, street lights and sewer facilities as approved
by the City Engineer.

street tree planting and maintenance purposes. The easement width
shall total 10 feet from the back of sidewalk.

scaped areas between the wall and the sidewalk adjacent to

The Environmental Review Committee of the City of Chula Vista
has recommended that the : _ p 1 anni nc~ • Commission & City C~un~-i 1
find L-hat the project noted below will not result in any significant
environmental impact. The project is described as follows:
Rezoning, subdivision of land and construction of 19 single
family dwellings.
Project Location: Northwest corner of 4th Ave. & K Street.
Project Proponent: CEPA 5555 A~agnatron Blvd. Suite D San Diego,29111
The finding that the project will not have a significant effect en
the environment is based on the following reasons:
1. The site }ias been used for agriculture in the past and is
currently used for floriculture. It is void of any significant
wildlife and there are no geologic hazards or adverse soi_1
conditions known t,o exist on the property.
2. The prol~osed subdivision and rezoning is consistent with
the Gencr_ it Plan and associated el.emc~nz,s and is not anticipai=cd
to achieve short term to the disadvani.age of long term goals.
3. Proposed resiclent;ial density i_s expected to generate
app.r.oxi_n~ately 5000 gallons 6f liquid se~a~age per day which could
contribute to a regionally cumulative impact on sewage treat-
ment facilities and secondary impacts on outfal.l water gnali_ty.
The effected se~•~ac~e treatment is currently operating over
capacity at this time and until new facilities are constructed
or the existing plant expanded, urban growth will continue to
exacerbate the existing situation.
~!. Local public systems are adequate for this residential
expansion and no substanti.al_ emission of noise or any hazardous
substance which would adversely effect humans is anti r.i.pated to
occur. The proposed mitigation will avoid any substantial
inverse traffic noise impact.
Mitigation measures included as part of the project to avoid
significant impact:
1. The applicant proposed to construct a six ft. masonry
wall which will provide line of site acoustical protection
from traffic noise on 4th Ave.
2. The developer will be required to obtain assurance from
the school districts that adequate school facilities are
available.
Project Prospective
Existing sewage treatment facilities are near or at capacity
but are adequate to provide a secondary treatment level.
Continued urbanization will exacerbate this existing problem.
Proposals fo.r expansion of the system are being examined by
the City of San Diego.
The Initial Study Application & Evaluation forms documenting the
fin 'xi of no sign'f'~ zt i pact, are attached.
