EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

I PROJECT DESCRIPTION

The 112 4 acre Telegraph Canyon Estates project site is in theEastern Territories Planning Area of the City of Chula vista It

is north of Telegraph Canyon Road Otay Lakes Road immediatelywest of the proposed future extension of state Route 125 S R

125 The site is not presently a part of the City of Chula Vistabut it is within the Special study area of the City s GeneralPlan meaning that it will require action by the Local AgencyFormation Commission LAFCO to be included into the Chula vistaSphere of Influence and annexed into the City

fl 1gle family dwelling units du J two private park E as and

W community purpose facility ji on approximately aa acres

o f the 112 4 acre site yielding ii wnet density of 4 du ac

Approximately 30 2 acres of the property will be in open space

The Telegraph canyon Estates project area was originally includedas a part of the Otay Ranch area and has been included in previousstudies conducted for that larger project Because the projectarea is physically separated from the rest of the Otay Ranch

property by Telegraph Canyon Road and because the site is adjacentto the Eastlake Community it is now being proposed as a

development separate from Otay Ranch If approved it will be

developed in a manner similar to and compatible with the EastlakePlanned comm mity and will be processed as an m rl g ni ii1 iiinie y

II ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS AND MITIGATION

1 Geo1oav Soils Development of the site could expose the

project to geologic hazards associated with compressive and

expansive soils found on site and to hazards from regional seismicactivity Impacts can be fully mitigated by adhering to the

remedial grading measures set forth in the geotechnical reportprepared for the project and by monitoring during project gradingAll grading and drainage plans will be reviewed and approved by the

City S Engineering Division prior to issuance of a grading permitA Testing and Observation Report will be prepared and submitted to

S l

iJ 9J

the City s Engineering Division to verify that all requirementshave been met

Paleontoloaical Sensitivity The Oligocene Otay and Sweetwater

Formations which occur on site have a high potential for containingsignificant fossils Project grading may expose or destroysubsurface fossil bearing strata providing new and importantpaleontological data Adverse impacts to paleontological resourcescould occur A paleontological monitor will be on site at alltimes during original cutting of previously undisturbed sediments

mapped within the Sweetwater and Otay Formations Projectconstruction will be temporarily halted if necessary to allow

recovery of fossil resources

2 HYdroloav Water Ouality Groundwater Short term erosionimpacts could occur during project grading and constructionExisting erosion problems associated with agricultural uses will beeliminated after site development but the amount of runoff willincrease with added hardscape The project could potentiallydegrade water quality in Telegraph Canyon Creek from urban

pollutants Mitigation will require implementation of an erosioncontrol plan during construction construction of the storm drainplan proposed in the SPA and adherence to National Pollutant

Discharge Elimination System NPDES requirements for urban runoffand stormwater discharge All plans shall be designed andconstructed to meet City Engineering Standards

3 Landform Alteration Aesthetics The project will require abalanced cut and fill of 8 40 000 cubic yards The grading planhas been developed to follow the dominant site landforms and the

project is proposed to be constructed in a terraced fashion Themaximum manufactured slopes will be 50 feet in height and the

deepest cut will be 45 feet on the eastern knoll Because the

project area is adjacent to Telegraph canyon Road which isdesignated a Scenic Highway by the City of Chula Vista the SPA hasbeen developed to conform with the Telegraph Canyon Scenic Highwaycriteria The project will provide setbacks from the canyon floor

preserve and enhance the natural stream corridor and trail systemensure that the project s architectural design height and sitingof structures and landscaping and signs are considered in the

development and provide landscaping to beautify the adjacentportion of the scenic route both inside and outside the projectarea The project s design concept is based on design elements ofthe Eastlake Design Manual Guidelines in order to assure

compatibility with the adjacent Eastlake Shores community

4 Air Ouality The project will create short term impacts fromdust and emissions during project construction It willincrementally add to cumulative impacts to the San Diego Air Basinby adding pollutants from increased traffic and householdemissions Mitigation for short term effects will requireimplementation of dust control measures during project grading

Construction equipment will be required to be well tuned and thenumber of construction related ADTs will be limited Long term

impacts will be reduced by adherence to the Air QualityImplementation Plan prepared for the SPA

s Bioloaical Resources The majority of the project site ischaracterized by disturbed and weedy vegetation associated with

past agricultural uses The project will eliminate thisvegetation along with 0 9 acres of wetland habitat Although thewetland habitat s rgmente tw lt9J iiw ity its loss is still

of wetland hab tat off s te otay Ranch to be preserved inconjunction with adjacent wetland habitat and compliance withCalifornia Department of Fish and Game Army Corps of Engineersand U S Fish and wildlife service requirements

6 Cultural Resources A site specific survey and records searchfor the project area did not reveal any significant cultural

resources on or adjacent to the property Thus no impacts willoccur to cultural resources with implementation of the project

7 TransDortation The project will generate a maximum 3500

average daily trips ADT The level of service LOS will be

lowered from C to D on Telegraph Canyon Road between otay LakesRoad and Eastlake Parkway from B to C between Crest Drive andfrom A to B between Paseo del Rey and Paseo Ladera butintersections will operate at acceptable levels and no significantdirect impacts will occur The applicant will pay its fair shareof area improvements to reduce cumulative impacts These mayinclude roadway widening restriping or installation of other

signals this will be determined by the City EngineeringDepartment during its annual review of cumulative impacts of all

projects in the Eastern Chula Vista Transportation Phasing Plan

ECVTPP

8 Noise Construction of the project will expose existingresidents to short term noise impacts The project will notincrease ambient noise levels significantly but portions of the

property will be subject to long term adverse noise impacts fromtraffic on S R 125 Mitigation will require construction of a

noise wall along the eastern portion of the site and possibly the

use of noise reducing construction materials and techniques Allnoise walls will be constructed in conformance with the designguidelines set forth in the SPA which follow the Eastlake I DesignGuidelines Materials will consist of stucco or stone walls withplexiglass panels to provide noise reduction while maintainingviews from residences All noise mitigation measures shall be made

conditions of the TSM Prior to issuance of building permits the

City of Chula vista s Noise Abatement Division shall review final

grading plans to determine whether additional noise materials are

1 0 INTRODUCTION SUMMARY

11 Purpose

The California Environmental Quality Act CEQA requires anenvironmental assessment of all governmental discretionary actionsdefined as projects Actions which could result in significantphysical impacts to the environment require the preparation of anenvironmental impact report

An application for the Telegraph Canyon Estates Subdivision hasbeen filed with the City of Chula vista to develop a maximum 350lot single family residential subdivision Discretionary actionsassociated with the project are a sphere of influence amendment an

Annexation a General Development Plan GDP a Sectional PlanningArea SPA and a Tentative Subdivision Map TSM Because the siteis adj acent to the Eastlake Community the pro is r tt e t e

i i iiiii ii giitri th

en il efgE iMft S aplanned Community District Regulations by the addition of the siteto the Eastlake Planned Community mapping area

An Initial Study conducted by the City of Chula vista determinedthat the project could impact certain environmental resources TheInitial Study Notice of Preparation NOP and responses to theNOP determined the scope of analysis for this EIR CEQA GuidelinesSection 15082 These documents are contained in Appendix A to theEIR

This EIR focuses on the issues identified as having potentiallysignificant environmental impacts resulting from approval of the

proposed project These include geology soils paleontologyhydrology water quality groundwater landform alterationaesthetics air quality noise biological resources land use

community social factors community tax structure parksrecreation open space utility service transportation culturalresources public facilities and services and public healthEffects determined not to be significant during the initial studyhave not been discussed in detail but are listed in the initialstudy in Appendix A per CEQA Guidelines Section 15128

The purpose of this EIR is to provide a document which delineatesand explains the environmental impacts of the proposed projectMitigation measures and alternatives designed to eliminate or

reduce environmental impacts to below a level of significance are

delineated CEQA Guidelines Section 15126 c d In accordance

with recent California legislation AB 3180 the EIR also containsa Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program MMRP for those

issues where significant impacts have been identified

12 Background Threshold Standards Policy

In 1987 the City Council of Chula vista established a Threshold

Policy and Growth Management Oversight Committee GMOC The goalof the Threshold Standards Policy is to assure maintenance of a

high quality environment and adequate public services It involves

implementing standards or thresholds determined by the cityCouncil for eleven issues fire emergency medical servicepolice traffic parks recreation drainage libraries airquality economics schools sewer and water Project by projectreview is required during the environmental review phase for sevenof the issues fire emergency medical services pOlice trafficparks and recreation drainage sewer and water to determine the

relationship between the project s impacts and threshold standardsIn compliance with the Threshold Standards Policy programpertinent issue analyses in this document will incorporate an

evaluation of the proposed project for conformance with the

applicable Threshold Standards Policy

Additionally The GMOC is responsible for an annual review of andreport on compliance with the standards A yearly status reportis prepared for the City Council If any standards are beingexceeded the GMOC must inform the Council who in turn is requiredto hold a public hearing Funding and enforcement of suggestedrecommendations are the responsibility of the city Council

2 0 PROJECT DESCRIPTION

2 1 Location

The 112 4 acre Telegraph Canyon Estates project site is insoutheastern San Diego County Figure 1 in the Eastern TerritoriesPlanning Area of the City of Chula Vista It is north of TelegraphCanyon Road Otay Lakes Road immediately west of the proposedfuture extension of State Route 125 S R 125 It is withinsection 34 Township 15S Range 1W on the Jamul Mountains USGS7 5 Quadrangle Figure 2 It can be identified as a portion ofAssessor Parcel Number 595 070 22

The site is not presently a part of the City of Chula Vista but itis within the Special Study area of the City s General Plan

meaning that it will require action by the Local Agency FormationCommission LAFCO to be included in the Chula vista Sphere ofInfluence and annexed into the city

The project site is currently vacant Adjacent land uses includethe Southwestern College Estates neighborhood and Otay Lakes LodgeMobile Home Parks to the west and the Eastlake Shores neighborhoodto the north The area to the east where the extension of S R125 will be constructed is presently vacant as is land to thesouth across Telegraph Canyon Road The area to the south ispresently being environmentally assessed in connection with the

proposed 23 OOO acre Otay Ranch Planned Community

Present access to the site isCrestview Drive in EastlakeSouthwestern College Estates

from Telegraph Canyon Road fromShores and from Gotham Road in

22 Background

The Telegraph Canyon Estates project area was originally includedas a part of the Otay Ranch area and has been included in previousstudies conducted for that larger project Background documents onthe Otay Ranch are on file with the City of Chula Vista s PlanningDepartment and an EIR is currently being prepared to incorporateinformation from those documents and other technical studies

Because the project area is physically separated from the rest ofthe otay Ranch property by Telegraph Canyon Road and because thesite is adjacent to the Eastlake Community Figure 3 it is now

being proposed as a development separate from otay Ranch If

approved it will be developed in a manner similar to and

compatible with the Ea tlake Planned Community and will be

processed as aft amendment to the Eastlake Peliey PlaH General

23 Project Characteristics

General DeveloDment Plan GDPI The Telegraph Canyon Estates

project is planned to provide a high quality private singlefamily residential community The GDP characterizes the proposedcommunity as French Countryside and proposes to develop the sitein conformance with the Eastlake Design Manual Guidelines forFrench Country The GDP also notes however that alternative

styles which have similar design features and character such as

English Country Colonial or Early American may be selected

A maximum of 350 single family dwelling units du s two privatepark areas and @lgafie community purpose facilities are proposed on

approximately sj acres of the 112 4 acre site yielding a net

density of 4 3 du ac It is estimated that development at thisdensity will add approximately 1 134 new residents to the area

The General Development Plan is shown in Figure 4

As shown in Figure 4 the GDP calls for approximately 30 acres of

open space 11111i1ii about 9 4 acres in the eastern portion of thesite will be Tii an easement for the future extension of S R 125

Roughly 20 af the remaifiiR leJ acres will consist of privateparks and permanent open space This open space will preserve a

portion of a natural swale bisecting the site the area adjacent to

Telegraph Canyon Road and the area which will be adjacent to S R125

averaging 5 685 sq ft in size

Two lots E and F totalling 1 5 acres in the extreme northwestern

corner of the site north of the water tank are proposed as a

Community Purpose Facility CPF No specific uses are proposedwith the TSM but as discussed above if it is developed it is

expected that it will be either a small day care center small

church or community meeting room complex

Access to the project will be provided at three points The

primary access will be from the main roadway extending north of

Telegraph Canyon Road in the central portion of the site A

second access point will be via the westerly extension of Gotham

Drive at the extreme northeastern corner of the site Also in this

area Creekwood Drive is proposed to extend south to connect with

the proposed internal roadway system The residences will be

accessed by the proposed road and cul de sac system rights of waywill be approximately 60 feet in width with actual roadwaysapproximately 36 feet to 40 feet in width

3 0 ENVIRONMENTAL SETIING

The 112 4 acre Telegraph Canyon Estates project site is within theEastern Territories Planning Area of the City of Chula Vista Itis north of Telegraph Canyon Road Otay Lakes Road immediatelywest of the proposed future extension of state Route 125 S R125 At this time the site is in the County of San Diego s

jurisdiction and a sphere of influence amendment and annexation are

required prior to project implementation The site is in a LAFCOdesignated special study area

The main features of the project area are shown in Figure 7 Asdiscussed above the site is adjacent to residential development on

the north and west The northern border of the site is a 2 1manufactured slope which separates the project from the EastlakeShores neighborhood The Otay Ranch area is south of the property

Dominant landforms on site are two knolls on the east and westsides of the property These are separated by a drainage swalewhich roughly bisects the site Elevations range from

approximately 615 feet at the northwest corner of the site to 460feet on the southwestern corner

The property is presently vacant It has been farmed in the pastand used for cattle grazing as part of Otay Ranch Vegetation on

site is dominated by non native grassland with some wetland

species such as cattails and willows occurring in the drainageswale in the central portion of the site Soil types occurring on

site are predominantly Diablo Clay with smaller areas of LinneClay loam and Salinas Clay loam USDA 1973 There are no rock

outcrops on the site

Telegraph Canyon Creek runs immediately south of the site s

southern border In this area the creek is an improved grasslined graded earthen channel with drop structures Some of the

slopes adjacent to the creek are manufactured having been cut forthe construction of Telegraph Canyon Road and for improvements tothe creek

The property is traversed by several easements An 80 foot wideSan Diego County Water Authority Easement crosses the central

portion of the site from northwest to southeast the County Water

Authority is proposing to add another 40 feet to this easement sothat the ultimate width will be 120 feet A San Diego GasElectric SOG E easement also 120 feet in width runs north tosouth on the property s eastern side A 230 KV circuit is presenton the double circuit transmission towers in the easement On theextreme western border is a 20 foot wide Otay Water DistrictEasement Both of the water easements allow access to the 8million gallon reservoir adjacent to the site s northwest corner

4 0 IMPACT ANALYSIS

4 1 Geology Soils

A geotechnical investigation of the project area was completed byICG Incorporated April 17 1991 This study included a reviewof previous geologic soils engineering and seismologic reportspertaining to the project site The technical report included inAppendix B to this EIR provides the background for the followinganalysis

Existing Conditions

The topography of the project site consists of gently to moderatelysloping hillsides separated by two north south trending canyonsThe property drains toward Telegraph Canyon on the southElevations range from 615 feet MSL at the northwestern corner ofthe property to 460 feet MSL at the southwestern corner The area

has been previously cultivated and used for cattle grazing but itis presently vacant with vegetation composed of low growinggrasses and occasional taller shrubs

site Geo1oav The project site lies within the coastal plainssection of the Peninsular Ranges geomorphic province and isunderlain by the Sweetwater and otay Formations The sedimentarybedrock appears to be tilted gently a few degrees to the southwestand the otay Formation dips in varying directions on the order of5 degrees or less Surface deposits of alluvium occur in the

drainages and topsoil and colluvium are found on the slopes Themain geologic features of the site are presented in Figure 4 1 1

The Sweetwater Formation lying below approximately 500 to 565 feetMSL on site consists of interbedded light brown to olive denseto very dense silty fine grained sandstone fine to coarse grainedsandstone with gravel and sandy claystone It is overlain by and

intermingled with the otay Formation which consists of white to

light gray or grayish pink dense to very dense silty fine tomedium grained sandstone with layered clayey sandstone bedsCaliche hardpan accumulations are common where the formation hasweathered Claystone beds are known to occur in this formationadjacent to the project area

Surface deposits of alluvium are found in the two main drainagesand the smaller swales The alluvium is composed of silty to

clayey sand and minor gravel is typically loose to medium dense

slightly porous damp to wet and contains some plant debris The

maximum depth of the alluvium measured on site was 10 feet

although greater depths may occur on the southern border of thesite along Telegraph Canyon Creek

Surface soils made up of topsoils and colluvium are composed of

damp to moist soft to firm sandy clay These soils are generally2 to 4 feet thick on site but may be as much as 7 feet deep The

upper 6 to 12 inches are permeated with a thick mass of grassroots

A fill slope placed in conjunction with development of a portionof the Eastlake proj ect encroaches onto a small portion of the

northern boundary of the property This 2 1 slope reaches a

maximum height of approximately 55 feet

During the time of the geologic survey a small amount of surface

water was noted in the drainage swale in the central portion of the

site The source of this water is the storm drain from the

Eastlake Shores development which outlets onto the site Some

groundwater seepage perched above the bedrock alluvium contact was

also noted in this drainage The amount and or presence of thissurface and groundwater will vary with rainfall irrigation up

gradient and storm drain outflow

Pa1eonto1oaica1 Sensitivity The Oligocene Otay and Sweetwater

Formations which occur on site have a high potential for containingsignificant fossils These formations are also found on the

adjacent Eastlake project area where they have yielded rich fossildeposits dating to the late Oligocene 27 to 28 million years agoERCE 1989 No other formations with a high moderate or lowpotential for fossil remains are known to occur on the projectarea

site Seismicity No known active faults lie on or adjacent to thesite However the site is within a seismically active area as isall of Southern California The closest mapped fault traces are

associated with the potentially active La Nacion fault zone

approximately 3 miles west of the site Figure 4 1 2 Seismichazards likely to affect the site will result from groundshakingcaused by earthquakes on distant active faults Table 4 1 1 Themost likely will be on the Rose Canyon fault which has at leastone strand considered active

Impact

As detailed in section 4 3 Landform Alteration Aesthetics the

project is proposing a balanced cut and fill of b ooo cu ydsof material While the overall landform of thelsite will beretained fill will be placed in a portion of the central drainage

swale and manufactured slopes will be created throughout the site

Development of the site could result in exposure of the project to

the following geologic hazards

site improvements could sustain damage due to the compressivenature of alluvial soils and topsoil on site The clays and

topsoil on site also have a high expansion potential whichcould also damage roads and structures

The surface deposits of alluvial soils at the site may

experience settling due to regional seismic activity

Some areas

bentoniticFormation

of

claycut slope instability may occurseams within the sandstone of

due to

the otay

possible adverse impacts may occur associated with perchedgroundwater Some settling and shifting of structures builton top of these pockets of groundwater may occur

Project grading may expose or destroy subsurface fossil bearingstrata providing new and important paleontological data Adverse

impacts to paleontological resources could occur

MitigationjMonitoring

In order to reduce the adverse impacts associated with geologicalhazards the following mitigation measures will be required thesewill be made conditions of the TSM and will be ensured through theMMRP

1 Subsurface exploration shall be performed in the form of

geologic logging of large diameter borings in the vicinity ofcut slopes once grading plans are specifically defined todetermine if bentonitic clay seams exist and to determine ifactual subsurface conditions reflect those anticipated in thetechnical report

In areas of proposed fill or structures all vegetation or

other abandoned structures or utilities shall be strippedand or removed from the site Topsoil colluvium andalluvium shall be removed to bedrock and replaced by denselycompacted fill The geotechnical report concluded thatmaterials derived from the Sweetwater and otay Formations on

site will be suitable for use as compacted fill provided thatany cemented sandstone fragments found in the otay Formationare removed

natural slopes steeper than 5 1 horizontal vertical shall be

keyed and benched into bedrock

4 Selective grading for building pads and streets shall be doneto avoid expansive soils or clayey alluvial materials

5 Rock disposal is recommended to be in a non structural areawith larger rocks incorporated into lower parts of compactedfills if performed under the observation and testing by ageotechnical consultant and may require special rock handlingequipment

6 Buildings shall not straddle a cut fill transition due topotential differential settlements of bedrock and fillmaterials within building pads Undercuts and grading are tobe done in accordance with recommendations of the geotechnicalreport Appendix B

7 To avoid surface slope failures appropriate plant materialselections and irrigation components and design shall bereviewed and approved by the City s Landscape Architects

8 Surface runoff to natural and graded areas shall be minimizedPad drainage shall be directed to suitable disposal areas viapaved swales and storm drains Subdrains shall be placed underall fills located in drainage courses

9 Soil expansion potential shall be evaluated on a lot by lotbasis upon completion of project grading If it is determinedthat conditions are not acceptable for standard foundationdesign additional measures such as lime treatment removalof soils or post tensioned slab foundations shall be

implemented

10 The City of Chula vista will also require detailed grading and

drainage plans to be prepared in conformance with The Chulavista Municipal Code the Subdivision Manual and all

applicable ordinance policies and standards

11 Final grading and foundation plans will include design andconstruction recommendations found in Appendix B All planswill be reviewed and approved by the City s EngineeringDivision prior to issuance of a grading permit

12 A qualified geotechnical consultant will monitor proj ect

grading to determine that the grading is in generalaccordance with the recommendations of the geotechnicalengineer s report If soil conditions are different fromthose anticipated modifications will be made to the initialrecommendations for geologic mitigation

27

JiJ4 1

13 Prior to issuance of a building permit the geotechnicalconsultant will be required to submit a Testing and

Observation Report to the City s Engineering Division to

verify that all requirements have been met during projectgrading

Potential impacts to paleontological resources will be mitigatedthrough the implementation of the following measures these will bemade a condition of the TSM and ensured through the MMRP

1 Prior to issuance of a grading permit the applicant shall

provide a letter to the City of Chula vista verifying that a

qualified paleontologist has been retained to implement a

mitigation program A qualified paleontologist is defined as

an individual with a MS or PhD in paleontology or geology who

is familiar with paleontological procedures and techniques

2 The paleontologist shall attend a pre grading meeting to

consult with the grading and excavation contractors

3 A paleontological monitor will be on site at all times duringoriginal cutting of previously undisturbed sediments mappedwithin the Sweetwater and Otay Formations

4 If fossils are encountered the paleontologist or

paleontological monitor shall recover them If recovery

requires an extended salvage time the paleontologist or

paleontological monitor will be allowed to temporarily directdivert or halt grading to allow recovery in a timely manner

5 The paleontologist or paleontological monitor will be allowed

to set up a screen washing operation on site if necessary to

recover small fossil remains e g mammal teeth etc

6 All fossil remains collected during the monitoring and salvageprogram shall be cleaned sorted cataloged and deposited ina scientific institution with paleontological collections such

as the San Diego Natural History Museum

Analysis of Significance

The aforementioned geologic impacts are considered significantHowever by adhering to the standard grading practices outlined inthe Geotechnical Report Appendix B and implementing the

mitigation measures discussed above these impacts will be reducedto below a level of significance Potential impacts to

paleontological resources are also considered to be significantbut will be reduced to below a level of significance throughmitigation measures set forth above which will be ensured throughthe MMRP

4 2 Hydrology Water Quality Groundwater

A hydrological analysis of the proposed project was done by TheMcIntire Group Inc June 21 1990 and is included in Appendix Cto this EIR The following EIR section is based on informationdeveloped in that analysis

Existing Conditions

Telegraph Canyon is oriented generally east to west ar1s1ngsouthwest of Mother Miguel Mountain and opening directly to SanDiego Bay Figure 4 2 1 The Telegraph Canyon drainage isapproximately nine miles long and varies generally from one halfto two thirds of a mile in width Hydrological analyses have beendone of the overall Telegraph Canyon watershed Rick Engineering

1987 summarized these and prepared a report to establish designdischarges for the channel design of Telegraph Canyon Creek whichwere done as a part of the roadway improvements of Telegraph CanyonRoad and Otay Lakes Road The project area drains to this improvedchannel it is the northern portion of sub basin 1A of the RickEngineering Report Figure 4 2 2

The site consists of gently rolling hills with moderate slopes20 gradient with a central swale bisecting the site A smaller

drainage runs parallel to this central swale in the eastern portionof the site

Elevations range from 615 feet MSL to 460 feet MSL The site isvacant but was previously used as agricultural grazing land Seesection 4 5

On site soil types mapped by the Soil Conservation Service are

Diablo Clay 2 9 9 15 slight erodibility and 15 30 slopesmoderate erodibility Linne Clay loam 9 30 slopes and Salinas

Clay loam 2 9 slopes both moderate erodibility The

predominate soil type is Diablo Clay 15 30 slopes moderate

erodibility Bowman 1973

The project area s two distinct parallel drainages run north tosouth Figure 4 2 3 into the improved channel of Telegraph CanyonCreek A lesser drainage serves the southwestern corner of thearea The easterly drainage encompasses approximately 54 acresThe drainage is projected to deliver 77 8 cubic feet persecond cfs during a storm of the frequency of 50 years TheMcIntire Group 1990

The central drainage covers approximately 52 acres on siteAdditional runoff is directed to this drainage via an existing 36inch storm drain pipe and open concrete channel at the base of theartificial fill slope at the northern boundary of the property

Figure 4 2 3 Point Number 13 This runoff originates in

portions of the adjacent vista cortina and Eastlake I subdivisions

Including this addition the central drainage is projected to

deliver 129 2 cfs to the Ulfiilllll e ee1 channel of Telegraph

liiiiifi iig lil i li i iti aii @iL igi giiiii iiiiiIn addition to storm runoff the storm drain also delivers nuisanceflows at all times of the year allowing surface or near surface

water along the center of the drainage along its entire lengthThe geotechnical investigation Appendix B noted the amount of

water varied at the surface and that groundwater seepage was

encountered in test pits from water perched above the

bedrock alluvium contact

Runoff from the southwestern portion of the site moves in sheet

flows into concrete ditches and then to various drop structures

along the improved channel

In the aE 3nimprevce1 channel of Telegraph Canyon Creek the total

flow ratedUFlng the flood of 50 year frequency is projected to be

1485 5 cfs at the southwestern corner of the property At this

point the channel contains all of the runoff from the property and

from all of the watershed upstream of the project

Impact

Water Oualitv Grading activities will increase the potential for

erosion of the on site soils during the time of grading and untilsite development After site development the potential forerosion will be less than under the present conditions as

hardscape and vegetation will be in place and the overall surface

disturbance of the soil from agricultural activities will cease

Development of the site for residential uses will result inpotential degradation of water quality from petroleum productsassociated with vehicle use and parking that will be washed fromthe streets during rainstorms Lawns and landscaping willintroduce the potential degradation of water quality fromfertilizers herbicides and pesticides During non rainy timesnuisance flows will be expected as from any residentialdevelopment from watering of vegetation and other outside uses

Conversion of the site will eliminate future agriculturalpractices This will have the beneficial impact of eliminatingfertilizers herbicides and pesticides associated with agricultureand will improve the quality of runoff

Significance of Impact

An increase in flowrate of 22 5 cfs from 1485 5 cfs under existingconditions to 1508 0 cfs with the proposed project will not beprojected as a significant impact The critical drainage pointassociated with this project is in the improved channel ofTelegraph Canyon Creek at the southwestern corner of the site ata double box culvert If the culvert were to flow full it has thecapacity to handle a flowrate of approximately 3 500 cfs TheMcIntire Group 1990 well in excess of projected flowrates withor without the proposed project

Significant site erosion during grading or following grading butbefore site development and the ensuing sediment input to theoverall watershed drainage system could be a significant impactRunoff from the urbanized area could degrade the water quality inthe receiving drainage reduction of water quality is considered a

significant impact Compliance with the mitigation measures listedabove will reduce drainage and water quality impacts to below alevel of significance

Desian Elements The Community Design Concept of the SPA is

French countryside to include classical architectural stylesbuilding materials and landscaping Figure 4 3 4 Details of

style include hip roofs dormers shingle roofs multi panedwindows heavy timber rails and supports at entry porch or balconyand wood details The Eastlake Design Manual Guidelines for

French country will be utilized for this project Alternative

compatible design styles that may be selected include EnglishCountry Colonial or Early American

The main entry on Telegraph Canyon Road Figure 4 3 5 will be

characterized by detailed walls and monuments The primaryentrance main streets and secondary streets will utilize varied

landscape plans and materials Figures 4 3 4 4 3 6 and 4 3 7

Theme trees and overall landscaping will be selected to complementthe architectural style

Walls and fencing to provide screening noise reduction and

security will be constructed consistent with guidelines set forth

in the SPA Consistent with the French Country theme the monument

wall at the community entry will combine a light colored stucco

finish with accents of stacked stone pilasters elements which

complement one another and provide the richness of texture and

detail important to the design theme Materials for walls and

fences will vary depending on specific purpose and location For

instance wrought iron will be used with stone pilasters to

preserve views while providing security Solid walls will providenoise attenuation and privacy Plexiglass walls will provide noise

attenuation while retaining views

The SPA also establishes guidelines for features such as signageto ensure that they will follow general guidelines established for

the Eastlake Planned Community

the preservation of existing landforms and natural slopessubstantial preservation of canyons with limited fill

varied slope ratios and

adapting and shaping building sites to the existing landforms

TheJ roposed grading will involve a balanced cut and fill ofm ooo cu yds of material This equates with an average of747j cu yds per acre over the 112 4 acre project site or 10 270cu yds per graded acre 81 8 acres to be graded The site willbe graded to follow the dominant site landforms the two knollsand to preserve a portion of the central drainage swale in openspace Figures 4 3 8 and 4 3 9 The project will be developed ina terraced fashion with roadways and residential lots followingthe contours of the knolls The grading design will minimize newmanufactured slopes along Telegraph Canyon Road with a daylightcut at the majority of the first row of lots Cut and fill areaswill then alternate to follow the two knoll landforms

Interior manufactured slopes will vary from 2 1 to 4 1 Themaximum height of manufactured slopes will be less than 35 feetthe majority of manufactured slopes will be under 30 feet inheight The elevational differences between adjacent residentiallots fronting on different streets will be between 7 and 14 feetdifferences in height between adjacent lots fronting on the samestreet generally will be 6 feet or less Figure 6 As illustratedin Figure 4 3 9 the general topography of the natural landformswill be retained with relatively minor modification The deepestg twill b 45 feet on the eastern knoll The largest fill will beQ9 feet n the central swale area

The residents of Eastlake Shores to the north of the projectcurrently have views across the site toward the south Retentionof these views to the extent feasible is considered in the proposedgrading concept as illustrated in Figures 6 and 4 3 8 Tiemajority of development pads are 20 feet below the existingresidences to the north increasing to 30 feet on the eastern edgeand decreasing to 6 feet along the connecting road Figure 6

Landscaping along this slope is designed to preserve existing viewsfrom Eastlake Shores while screening views to the houses below

Figure 4 3 7

While the project attempts to preserve the views from Eastlake

Shores as much as feasible these views will no longer be of vacant

land However the nature of the views will change regardless of

the development of the Telegraph Canyon Estates project if

development of otay Ranch is approved for the property south of

Telegraph Canyon Road and if S R 125 is constructed immediatelyeast of the project site as proposed

The existing communities on the western border of the site will be

separated from the project by the 20 foot water easement and

landscaped slopes varying in height from 10 to 27 feet The

combined setback averages 40 feet on the western edge of the

project Figure 4 3 6

Scenic Hiqhwav Criteria Because the project area is adjacent to

Telegraph Canyon Road which is designated a Scenic Highway on the

Chula vista General Plan the SPA has been developed to conform

with the Telegraph Canyon Scenic Highway Criteria The projectwill

provide setbacks from the canyon floor

preserve and enhance the natural stream corridor and trail

system

ensure that the project I s architectural design height and

siting of structures and landscaping and signs are consideredin the development and

provide landscaping to beautify the adjacent portion of the

scenic route both inside and outside the project area

The grading plan has been designed to minimize new manufactured

slopes along Telegraph Canyon Road The existing Telegraph CanyonCreek drainage channel will remain unchanged Existing 3 1 and 4 1

graded slopes and 3 1 and 6 1 natural slopes will be preserved inthe open space easement along Telegraph Canyon Road Interior

manufactured slopes will vary from 2 1 to 4 1 as illustrated in

Figures 4 3 4 and 4 3 6

The landscape concept plan is designed to comply with the ScenicHighway Criteria An expanded landscape setback area averaging 200feet in width minimum 175 feet maximum 700 feet will be providedalong Telegraph Canyon Road and will include the existing creekchannel The landscaped setback area will include varied contourgrading minimizing new manufactured slopes and varied planting toenhance the view from this scenic highway and screen the edge ofthe development The existing road right of way and channellandscaping will also be enhanced

MitigationjMonitoring

1 Grading for the Telegraph Canyon Estates project shall adhereto the guidelines of the Chula vista General Plan Land UseElement as outlined above

2 Development of the project shall comply with the ScenicHighway Criteria outlined above Adherence to the City s landuse and grading policies as well as the open space easementsand landscape and design elements discussed above willmitigate landform alteration aesthetic impacts to below a

level of significance

The mitigation monitoring program shall entail review ofgrading plans and the Tentative Subdivision Map by the CityEngineering Department to ensure compliance with the City s

grading and design standards

The landscape plan shall be reviewed and approved by thecity s Landscape Architects Landscaping for each phase shallbe installed prior to occupancy of the first building withinthat phase and 100 coverage shall be achieved for

groundcover within nine months of planting

Analysis of Significance

The City of Chula vista s Threshold Standards policy does notinclude threshold criteria for grading and landform alterationquality impacts The grading associated with development of the

Telegraph Canyon Estates project will not result in significantimpacts to landform alteration as the general topography of thenatural landforms will be retained and grading would comply withguidelines set forth in the Land Use Element of the Chula vistaGeneral Plan

The development will adhere to the City s Scenic Highway criteriathereby avoiding significant visual impacts to Telegraph CanyonRoad

4 4 Air Quality

An Air Quality Improvement Plan AQIP was prepared for theTelegraph Canyon Estates SPA by Giroux and Associates August 61991 This document consisting of an analysis of potential airquality impacts and a mitigation and monitoring plan is includedin Appendix D to this EIR and provides data for the following airquality impact analysis

Existing Conditions

Ambient Air Qua1itv The City of Chula vista s climate is typicalof coastal areas of Southern California Chiefly influenced by asemi permanent high pressure system over the Pacific Ocean it istypified by early morning cloudiness hazy afternoon sunshinedaytime onshore breezes and little annual temperature changesRainfall occurs in small amounts chiefly during the winter monthswith annual amounts totalling around 10 inches

These conditions limit the atmosphere s ability to dispersepollutants Onshore winds diminish near the foothills in theCounty and sinking air within the offshore high pressure systemcreates a temperature inversion which traps pollutants near theground When the horizontal and vertical air stagnation arecombined with sufficient sunshine conditions are right for theformation of photOChemical smog

Coastal areas are less susceptible than are inland areas tounhealthful levels of smog because they are better ventilated bydaytime breezes When high levels of pollutants occur incommunities such as Chula Vista they may form during periods oflocalized stagnation in the summer but most frequently occur whenpollutants from the Los Angeles air basin drift south into SanDiego County Ambient air quality is recorded at several airmonitoring stations within the Air Basin The closest airmonitoring station to the project site is the Chula vista stationTable 4 4 1 shows Federal and State ambient air quality standardsThe number of days that Federal and State emission standards wereexceeded at the Chula Vista air monitoring station are shown on

Tables 4 4 2 and 4 4 3

The County of San Diego is considered a non attainment area forozone and respirable particulate matter air quality standards bythe Environmental Protection Agency Additionally the westernportion of the County is considered a non attainment area forState nitrogen dioxide and carbon monoxide standards While levelsof ozone have decreased over the last 10 years in San Diego Countyit is still the pollutant of primary concern In 1989 the Federalstandard for ozone was exceeded on 55 days and the State standardwas exceeded on 158 days Pollution transported from Los Angeles

was the primary source state nitrogen dioxide and carbon monoxidestandards were not violated in Chula vista in the last six yearsTable 4 4 2 and have exceeded standards on a basinwide scale

only infrequently

Air Oualitv Reaulation Both the state of California and theFederal government have established standards for air pollutionlevels Overall the state standards are more stringent than theFederal standards Table 4 4 1

Four agencies are involved in the air quality planning processThese include the Environmental Protection Agency EPAresponsible for administering the Federal Clean Air Act the stateAir Resources Board ARB responsible for implementing theCalifornia Clean Air Act CCAA of 1988 also known as AB 2595the San Diego County Air Pollution Control District APCDresponsible for developing the Air Quality Plan mandated by theCCAA and regulating regional emissions and the San Diego CountyAssociation of Governments SANDAG responsible for preparingtransportation control measures in the Air Quality Plan

The State Implementation Plan SIP currently serves as theregional Air Quality Plan Based on Series V and VI GrowthForecasts it was originally developed in 1982 by SANDAG and theAPCD incorporating tactics identified in the 1982 Regional AirQuality Strategy RAQS Update Mross personal communicationThe RAQS Update is presently being revised using series VII GrowthForecasts but the original SIP will continue to serve as theregional air quality plan until the new one is adopted

Because some pollutants in the San Diego air basin exceed State andFederal standards the CCAA requires that revisions are made to theSIP Regional air quality attainment plans are currently beingprepared by SANDAG and the APCD Specific guidelines and standardsare not available but the plans will focus on reducing singleoccupant automobile trips

The APCD Board adopted criteria for developing a transportationcontrol measures TCM plan which is being prepared by SANDAG TheTCM criteria focus on six main objectives including

transportation demand management reduction in the number ofvehicle trips and heavy duty vehicle restrictions

expansion of alternative transportation modes includingpublic transit park and ride facilities high occupancyvehicles and biCYCles pedestrians

transportation system management traffic signals and incidentmanagement

land use balanced jobs and housing mixed use and focused

development

market based incentives fees and taxes and

driving restrictions

It is envisioned that regulations to meet these criteria willinclude ride sharing and van pool programs employer subsidizedtransit ticket passes flexible work schedules telecommutingparking incentives to support ride sharing trip managementeducation limitations on heavy truck traffic and measures to

reduce trips to large facilities These regulations combined withother transportation system measures will be included in the new

Air Quality Plan to reduce motor vehicle trips and emissions

While the City of Chula vista does not have a formal role in the

development of the Air Quality Plan it can contribute to regionalair quality improvements After studying the potential impacts of

future development on public facilities and services the Cityadopted the Threshold Ordinance see Chapter 12 updated itsGeneral Plan and prepared a Growth Management Plan GMP for the

city to establish an orderly process for development The projectarea is within the primary area of focus of the GMP east of I

805 The city Council is currently implementing the GMP which

requires that Air Quality Improvement Plans AQIP are prepared for

major development projects 50 residential units or

commercial industrial projects which generate more than 500 tripsper day Giroux and Associates 1991 This project developed an

air quality plan concurrent with the sectional Planning Area SPA

submittal pursuant to City requirements see Appendix 0

The city of Chula vista is also presently involved in a regionaleffort to implement a transportation demand management TOM

ordinance The immediate focus of the TOM ordinance will be on

employment travel college and university travel and the movement

of goods The objectives of reducing the number of trips are

detailed in Appendix 0 on page 12 Implementation of the TOM

ordinance will largely be the responsibility of regional employers

Impact

Short term project construction will generate dust and dieselemissions creating short term construction phase emissionsimpacts While individual homes do not directly affect airquality a residential development is considered to be an indirectsource of air pollution because it generates motor vehicle tripsGiroux and Associates 1991 Over the long term the Telegraph

Canyon Estates project if built at a maximum of 350 units willgenerate approximately 3500 daily automobile trips see Chapter4 8 Transportation Additional vehicle trips from the proposed

project will cause further degradation of air quality within theSan Diego Air Basin

Construction Phase rmDacts Soil disturbance associated withproject construction is expected to generate fugitive dustGiven prevailing westerly winds dust plumes will generally blow tothe east except during Santa Ana conditions when winds will changeand blow dust west toward existing residential development Basedon standards set by the ARB it is projected that withoutapplication of dust control procedures the project could generateup to 630 tons of dust emissions

Combustion emissions will also be released from heavy equipmentduring project construction While these emissions are difficultto quantify because of day to day variation in activities a

projection of emissions which will result over the buildoutlifetime of the project is presented in Table 4 4 4

Construction phase air quality impacts are deemed tolevel of significance with implementation of themeasures identified below

be below a

mitigation

Pro ect Phase rmDacts The project will result in an increase inair emissions from automobiles The project is consistent withSANDAG Series VII growth projections and will be reviewed forconformance with the updated SIP when it is approved and adopted asthe regional Air Quality Plan AQP As noted in Appendix D theproject is residential and specific requirements for residentialprojects are expected to be minimal in the new AQP Because theAQP will focus on transportation measures beyond the control of asingle project developer it is anticipated that the project willbe reviewed for consistency with the AQP Giroux and Associates1991

The project will however contribute incrementally to basin wideair pollution As shown in Table 4 4 5 the project is expected tocontribute 0 009 of the basin wide reactive organic gases 0 025of carbon monoxide and 0 013 of nitrogen dioxide

The project is not expected to result in localized air qualityimpacts e g carbon monoxide hotspots due to idling trafficWhere the future level of service LOS on area roadways isexpected to decrease the project will provide mitigation tomaintain adequate traffic flow see Chapter 4 8 TransportationAdditionally at the present time the intensity of developmentnear the project site and non local background pollution levels are

low Therefore the local airshed is considered to have adequatecapacity limiting the potential for localized air pollution hot

spots from project implementation Giroux and Associates 1991

Because the proposed project is within a non attainment area airquality impacts are deemed to be significant and unmitigated on

a cumulative region wide level Mitigation of project phase air

quality impacts are identified below

MitigationjMonitoring

The AQIP prepared for the SPA is included in Appendix o It has

been prepared to fulfill the City of Chula vista s Growth

Management Plan Measures to reduce cumulative air quality impactsare limited and are largely restricted to methods such as

encouraging alternative transportation car pools use of mass

transit bicycling and walking The project is proposing to

include bus stops adjacent to Telegraph Canyon Road to encourage

use of bus transportation However as noted in Appendix 0 the

proposed design terraced development with cul de sac streets may

discourage bicycle and pedestrian use and encourage use of motor

vehicles

Construction Phase Impacts The Telegraph Canyon Estates Air

proieot Phase ImDacts Because the project will not createlocalized air quality impacts no mitigation measures are requiredAs discussed above the methods for reducing the project scontribution to cumulative air pollution are limited because theproject is residential Residents can be advised of car poolfacilities or mass transit routes but there is no method to ensurethat these options would be exercised The AQMP requires that the

IEPject is c mstructed using energy co servation materials whichMexceed T tle 24 energy budget requ rements by 10 percent ofestImated use and that homes are pre plumbed to encourage and

facilitate use of passive solar thermal collectors for spa or homewater heating requirements

As detailed in the AQIP in Appendix D three primary groups areinvolved to ensure implementation of the plan These include thedeveloper builder property owners residents and governmentagencies

Developer Builder The applicant is providing the basic planningdesign and management of the program and will be responsible forimplementing community level transportation facilities Efter yplannillEj ana manaEjcmcnt will Be the reapsnsi13ility af the Bl1ileie raesnstruet iBEj the aemea

Homeowners Residents The project s residents will be responsiblefor choosing their mode of transportation driving habits andlifestyles Mode choice will be primarily influenced by tripdestination rather than trip origin

Government and Service Aaencies All project plans will bereviewed by City Staff to ensure compliance with the updated AirQuality Plan Prior to approval of the tentative map projectplans will be reviewed by city Staff to insure that the requiredmeasures can be accommodated by the project s design

jfJ 1 I

Transportation control measures TCMs and development and

transportation improvement phasing are controlled by the City s

Growth Management Plan The potential impacts associated with

traffic congestion on roadways affected by the project will be

assessed Any mitigation measures delineated in the TransportationPhasing Plan shall be implemented prior to issuance of occupancypermits per the Public Facilities Financing Plan PFFP

The APCD is responsible for updating the regional Air Quality Plan

Because the APCD is prohibited by state law from intruding on the

land use authority of the City of Chula Vista it will be the

City s responsibility to implement the plan s guidelines when it is

approved

Analysis of Significance

Construction Phase Significant localized impacts to air qualityduring project construction will be reduced to below a level of

significance by standard dust control practices listed above

Pro ect Phase The project s contribution to the basin wideairshed is small 0 009 of reactive organic gases 0 025 of

carbon monoxide and 0 13 of nitrogen dioxide Given the San

Diego Air Basin s non attainment status however the incrementaladdition of pollutants from any individual project is considered a

significant unmitigable impact on a cumulative basis

As previously discussed SANDAG s regional growth forecasts are

based on land uses established in area general plans While the

project exceeds the Series V and VI Growth Forecast used in the

1982 SIP it will be reviewed for consistency with the Series VIIGrowth Forecast being used to update the SIP the new regional Air

Quality Plan Until consistency with that plan can be determinedhowever project phase air quality impacts are deemed to be

significant and unmitigated

4 5 Biological Resources

A biology field survey was done by Recon in 1989 on theapproximately 23 OOO acre Otay Ranch Property Recon 1991 TheRecon report is on file with the City of Chula Vista PlanningDepartment and may be reviewed at that location The TelegraphCanyon Estates site is a small portion of the Recon study area Anupdated biology survey to acquire more detail and to include aspring survey of the Telegraph Canyon Estates site was done in 1991by Affinis This section is based on that updated biology reportincluded in Appendix E to this EIR

Existing Conditions

The site consists of gently rolling hills with moderate slopes20 gradient with a central swale bisecting the site A smallerdrainage runs parallel in the eastern portion of the siteElevations range from 615 feet above Mean Sea Level to 455 feetThe site is largely agricultural land Figures 7 4 3 1 and 4 3 2

On site soil types mapped by the Soil Conservation Service areDiablo Clay 2 9 9 15 and 15 30 slopes Linne Clay loam 930 slopes and Salinas Clay loam 2 9 slopes The predominatesoil type is Diablo Clay 15 30 slopes There are no rockoutcrops on the site The site s northern border is a fill slopewhich was constructed for the Eastlake developmentThe majority of the site of 112 acres consists of 101 8 acres ofAgricultural land which had been recently mowed and tilled

Approximately 2 0 acres were mapped as Disturbed Ruderal Theseare in a swale and under the transmission lines in the easternportion of the site Figure 4 5 1 Plants observed were tocalotesow thistle Bromus species jimson weed and bindweed wild oatsfennel russian thistle and mustard were the dominant speciesAn area of 1 8 acres was mapped as Disturbed Ornamental This isin the northwestern portion of the site north of the waterreservoir The area is partially disturbed by tilling and otheractivity and partially planted and invaded by ornamental speciesAn area of 1 5 acres is covered by the artificial steep fill ofthe adjacent housing project On this artificial fill slope in thenorthwest corner buckwheat grasses encelia and saltbush wereidentified These appear to be the result of revegetation effortson the slope

The central drainage contains two areas of freshwater marsh an

upper area of approximately O 6 acres and a lower portion of

approximately 0 3 acres this lower portion is itself divided in

77

il tJ

half by the easement and road for the aqueduct and reservoir

Figure 4 5 1 In the upper portion just below the fill slopecattails dominated In the lower marsh portion cattails were

present north of the easement road south of the easement road were

willows tree tobacco fan palm watercress distichlis and

rabbitfoot grass The channel by Telegraph Canyon Road in the

southeastern section also contains a stand of giant reed

The area mapped as Drainage is the non vegetated portion of the

drainage between the two areas of marsh This occupiesapproximately 1 1 acres The site has been farmed for some time

Brushing and plowing have regularly occurred through this area as

a result no perennial vegetation is established Some watercress

was present

Mammals observed included three cottontail rabbits and one groundsquirrel Also observed were pocket gopher mounds Birds observed

were Brewer s and Red winged Blackbird Meadowlark Cliff Swallow

Killdeer House Finch and California Towhee feeding in the fennelin the second drainage the disturbed ruderal area One

invertebrate the escargot snail was observed in the northwest

corner by the water reservoir associated with the ornamental

plants Lists of species observed are presented in Appendix E

Impact

The proposed project with parks and the community PurposeFacilities will occupy 82 2 acres of the site The proposedproject includes 30 2 acres of open space 9 4 of this may be used

as easement by the future State Route 125 Figure 5 The

remaining 20 8 acres are proposed for revegetation landscaping as

discussed in section 4 3 above

Most of the disturbed ruderal area of the eastern swale will beretained by this project as open space in time the area will

likely be used by the State Route 125 project with this

exception the balance of the project will remove all of the

vegetation present as revegetation and landscaping are planned for

any areas not being built upon Figure 4 3 4

The proposed project will eliminate the upper freshwater marsharea of approximately 0 6 acres and the two portions of the lower

marsh area of approximately 0 3 acres together

Revegetation and landscaping will create some habitat particularlyvertical habitat with the introduction of trees and ground cover

on areas that are presently Agricultural or Disturbed

MitigationjMonitoring

The freshwater marsh portion is of low quality and is small and

fragmented the upper portion is 0 6 acres the lower portion is oftwo 0 15 acre pieces separated by the easement road Its loss isconsidered significant because it fulfills the Federal and statedefinition of a wetland

Preservation of the area on site is not feasible The area willbecome even more isolated than it is now and human and petencroachment into the marsh will further reduce its minimal valueas habitat Marsh areas adjacent to residential areas are oftenthe subject of complaints about mosquitos and City and CountyVector Control frequently must spray the areas

Mitigation of potentially significant biological impacts will beensured through the implementation of the following mitigationmeasures These measures will be made conditions of projectapproval and requirements of the MMRP

1 The area to be lost will be replaced by the preservation ofa ruiiiiiil I 1iiii iiiiliiiiliitIiiiii i p

Fish and Game requ1rements

2 The off site mitigation area will be in association with a

larger marsh or riparian area to encourage the establishmentof habitat of meaningful size to wildlife Because thewetland area on site is less than one acre in size it fallsunder the national permitting requirements of the Army Corpsof Engineers

3 The Applicant shall preserve the long term conservation ofwetland areas off site by dedicating 0 9 acres to the City as

part of a natural open space easement The City shall placean open space easement in this acreage which would eliminatefuture building activity and which would set 0 9 acres asidefor the preservation of wetlands off site

4 The Applicant is presently involved in the planning of the

adjacent 23 000 acre Otay Ranch Project The Applicant has

agreed to place an Open Space Easement on a minimum of 0 9acres of wetland in association with a larger marsh or

riparian area in the otay Ranch Project to mitigate thoabiological impacts associated with this project to below a

level of significance

5 Monitoring of the mitigation will be done by review and

approval by the City of Chula vista Planning Department forthe granting of the Open Space Easement Prior to recordingof the Final Map the open space easement shall be dedicated

4 6 Cultural Resources

The Telegraph Canyon Estates project site was previously surveyedby Recon in 1989 as part of the survey for the proposed otay Ranch

project That survey report will be a part of technicaldocumentation accompanying the EIR for the otay Ranch projectwhich is currently being prepared

A focused survey of the project area was conducted by Affinispersonnel on July 2 1991 The Affinis survey report is includedas Appendix F to this EIR and serves as the background for the

following analysis

Existing Conditions

As previously discussed the project area consists of 112 4 acres

of land encompassing two gently sloping knolls trending north tosouth divided by a central swale Elevations on the property siterange from 460 feet MSL to 615 feet MSL

Previous agricultural use including grazing disking and plantinghas heavily impacted the property with the exception of theeasternmost portion of the property the area had been recentlymowed and tilled at the time of the Affinis survey At the presenttime the site supports a sparse cover of primarily non native

weedy plant species and animals typical of urban environments Seesection 4 5 of this EIR

Record searches performed for the project by the South Coastal

Information Center SCIC and the San Diego Museum of Mandetermined that no archaeological sites have been recorded on the

property However sites situated within one mile of the projectarea were reported These consist primarily of small lithicscatters or temporary camps

During the survey two isolated artifacts were identified These

artifacts a felsite flake and a fragment of purple glass were

mapped and collected Both isolates were judged insignificantbecause of their lack of potential research value

Impact

The two isolated artifacts a glass fragment and a felsite flakewere mapped and collected Thus development of the project sitewill not impact these artifacts As none of the sites recorded

within one mile of the property is immediately adjacent to the

project area no off site cultural resource impacts are expected to

occur

83

tfAt

MitigationjMonitoring

No significant impacts to cultural resources are expectedtherefore no mitigation measures or monitoring plan is required

Significance of Impact

No significant impacts to cultural resources are expected to occur

4 7 Transportation

A traffic study was prepared by Urban Systems Associates IncMarch 27 1992 for the proposed project and is included in

Appendix G to this EIR This EIR section is based on the analysisof that report

Existing Conditions

The project area is located in the Eastern Territories PlanningArea of the City of Chula vista It is north of Telegraph CanyonRoad also called otay Lakes Road and west of Eastlake ParkwayThe future alignment for S R 125 is immediately east of the sitePrincipal access to the project area will be from Telegraph CanyonRoad with secondary access from Rutgers Avenue and Gotham Street

Existing roadways are shown in Figure 4 7 1 The major roadwaysserving the project area are East H Street Telegraph Canyon Road

otay Lakes Road and Rutgers Avenue

East H Street is primarily an east west route which consists of a

six lane primary arterial between I 80S and otay Lakes Road and a

4 lane major roadway between otay Lakes Road and the future S R125 It is planned to be expanded to an 8 lane prime arterial fromI 80S to Hidden vista Drive Itwill remain a 4 lane major streetfrom otay Lakes Road to the future S R 125 Telegraph CanyonRoad also running predominantly east west connects I 80S withotay Lakes Road It currently terminates at its intersection withotay Lakes Road where otay Lakes Road becomes the east west

roadway but this portion will be renamed Telegraph Canyon Road inthe future It currently consists of 6 lanes between I 80S andPaseo Del Rey but loses one westbound lane between Medical Center

Drive and Paseo Ladera It becomes a six lane roadway again until

Apache Drive where it drops down to two lanes between Apache Driveand Rutgers Avenue It is currently under construction to 6 lane

prime arterial standards

otay Lakes Road runs mainly north south until it intersects

Telegraph Canyon Road It is presently a 4 lane major roadwaywithout raised medians between Bonita Road and Telegraph CanyonRoad and narrows to a two lane roadway just north of TelegraphCanyon Road otay Lakes Road is designated as a six lane primearterial on the Chula Vista General Plan The east west portionwill eventually become an extension of Telegraph Canyon Road a 6lane prime arterial and will continue south through otay Ranch inthe future

Rutgers Avenue also runs north to south and becomes Corral CanyonRoad north of East H Street Currently a two lane collector

Corral Canyon Road is planned to become a Class II collector street

Level of Service LOS describes the speed and ease with whichtraffic moves on a given roadway segment It is rated on a scale

ranging from A best to F worst Existing and predicted LOSwere determined for roadway segments and critical intersections as

identified in the city of Chula Vista s Transportation PhasingPlan The existing LOS and capacities of key roadways in the

project area are shown in Table 4 7 1 As shown in the Tabletraffic is currently most congested on East H Street between I 80Sand Hidden vista Drive and on Bonita Road between I 80S and otayLakes Road

Additionally some of the land development proposed in the EasternTerritories is considered in the Eastern Chula vista TransportationPhasing Plan ECVTPP The circulation system cannot accommodateall of the traffic not identified in the ECVTPP e g Salt CreekRanch and it is not known at this time which projects willreceive capacity allocation The traffic volumes used in thetraffic report reflect maximum numbers based on approvals of largeprojects in the area e g Rancho del Rey SPA I II and III and

represent the worst case scenario

Impact

Pro ect Traffic If the Telegraph Canyon Estates project were

developed at the maximum density allowed on the site 350 unitsit will generate a total of 3 500 average daily trips ADT The

projected peak hour AM and PM rush hourn traffic is presented inTable 4 7 2

The SPA is proposing the circulation element shown in Figure 4 7 2Traffic will enter the project via a new Class III collector streetoff Telegraph Canyon Road or via extensions of Gotham Drive andCreekwood Way residential streets in the northwestern corner ofthe site Traffic is expected to be distributed as shown in Figure4 7 3 based on freeway access and location of services such as

shopping centers schools and community attractions

Approximately 80 of the trips 2800 ADT are assigned to TelegraphCanyon Road via the main access A total of 10 of the ADT 350

trips are expected to go to Rutgers Avenue via Gotham Street and

another 10 will go to Lakeshore Drive via Creekwood Way

tentative subdivision maps which will also generate traffic thatwill impact area roadways

The traffic report compared LOS on area roadways based on streetimprovements which are being required as part of the approvedprojects and Rancho Del Rey SPAs I II and III Forecast As shownin Table 4 7 3 future traffic is projected to drop to unacceptablelevels on several roadway segments

Direct impacts of the proposed project will occur on segments of

Telegraph Canyon Road The LOS would go from B to C between CrestDrive and Paseo Del Rey and from A to B between Paseo Del Rey andPaseo Ladera While the project s traffic will lower the LOS onthe roadway segment between otay Lakes Road and Eastlake Parkwayfrom C to D the intersection at Telegraph Canyon Road and Eastlake

Parkway will still operate at a LOS C during the PM peak hourwhich is within the acceptable range set by the City of Chulavista s Threshold Standards The future LOS on Telegraph CanyonRoad between I 80S and Crest Drive is projected to drop to LOS Ewith or without the proposed project

The LOS on portions of East H Street will also be lowered by futuretraffic with or without the proposed project the future LOS onthese roadway segments will still range between D and F Theproject will contribute 1400 ADT to segments of East H Streetbetween I 80S and Hidden vista Drive Hidden Vista Drive to PaseoDel Rey Paseo del Rey and Paseo Ranchero and Paseo Ranchero andBuena vista Way

The LOS on Otay Lakes Road between East H Street and TelegraphCanyon Road is expected to drop to E in the future and a LOS F isprojected for Bonita Road between I 80S and otay Lakes RoadHowever as shown in Table 4 7 3 the project will not contributeany trips to these roadway segments The proj ect will not addtraffic to Corral Canyon Road between Central Avenue and East HStreet or to Rutgers Avenue between Gotham Street and TelegraphCanyon Road The project is expected to contribute 350 ADT to that

segment of Rutgers Avenue between East H and Gotham Street but theLOS is expected to remain at A

The traffic study conducted for the project also analyzed variousintersections using the Highway Capacity Method HCM and baseconditions from the November 18 1991 City of Chula Vista TrafficImpact Study for Salt Creek Ranch The intersections were analyzedwith traffic projected from approved projects detailed in AppendixC and D of the traffic report and also with traffic projectedfrom the proposed project The City of Chula Vista s Growth Plan

requires that the LOS at intersections must be maintained at LOS Cor better except that LOS D may occur at signalized intersectionsfor a period not to exceed a total of two hours a day As shownin Table 4 7 4 the project s traffic is predicted to lower the LOS

from B to C during the a m peak at the intersection of East H

during the p m peak at the intersection of East H Street and

Rutgers Street The project s traffic is not expected to reducethe LOS at any of the other intersections analyzed

In addition to the major intersections shown in Table 4 7 4 the

project could potentially affect other intersections in the

adjacent residential areas The project is proposing to extendGotham Street and Creekwood Way to provide access in thenortheastern portion of the site This roadway connection willallow the possibility of through trips for non project trafficwhich is projected to be fewer than 100 ADT The intersection ofGotham Street and Rutgers Road is currently controlled by a four

way stop The future traffic volume on Rutgers Road is forecast at2000 ADT the minimum ADT needed to warrant a traffic signal is9000 trips The project is expected to increase the ADT here by350 trips 35 ADT during the PM peak hour Therefore the projectis not expected to adversely impact these roadways or thisintersection

The traffic study analyzed the need for a traffic signal on

Telegraph Canyon Road at the proposed project entry Projectedtraffic volumes are not sufficient to warrant a signal at thislocation see Appendix E of the traffic study

The project can function adequately from a traffic operationperspective without a traffic signal at the otay Lakes Road projectentry Under this scenario the intersection would only allowright turns into and out of the main project entry and exit Thustraffic desiring to turn left in and out of the roadway would beforced to travel out of direction to the nearest adjacentsignalized intersection on otay Lakes Road where a U turn could beperformed with the benefit of a left turnjU turn provision

However the amount of project traffic during the peak hourforecasted to utilize this access point is very close to meetingthe Caltrans warrants for signalization Also it is uncertain atthis time whether future developments to the south willnecessitate access to otay Lakes Road at the subject intersectionFor this reason the City traffic engineer has no objections to theinclusion of a traffic signal at the subject intersection It isexpected that the entire cost of the signal will be incurred by the

developer

While it is not required by the City the SPA shows a signal on

Telegraph Canyon Road at the project entry approximately 1350feet west of the future S R 125 southbound off ramp andapproximately 0 5 miles west of Rutgers Road

Scenario 4 of the City of Chula vista s future buildout conditionsincludes the completion of S R 125 The completion of thisroadway will alter the traffic flow on area streets and will

substantially change the distribution and assignment of trafficgenerated by the proposed project The majority of project related

trips forecast at 3800 ADT will use the adjacent freeway accessrather than traveling west on Telegraph Canyon Road Total trafficon Telegraph Canyon Road is forecast to range between 16 000 and47 700 ADT below its LOS C capacity of 50 000 ADT Therefore no

adverse impacts are expected to occur under this buildout scenario

MitigationjMonitoring

1 Cumulative impacts to area roadways will be mitigated by the

project s contribution of funds toward roadway improvementscalled out in the ECVTPP The specific improvements requiredfor the proposed project such as possible roadway wideningrestriping or installation of signals will be determined bythe city of Chula vista s Engineering Department upon reviewof the cumulative impacts of the projects in the area

2 All improvements will be funded on a fair share basis amongprojects The project I s fair share contribution toward

mitigating direct and cumulative impacts will be made acondition of the TSM

Analysis of Significance

The proj ect will affect the LOS at the intersection of East HStreet and Hidden vista Drive where the LOS will go from B to C

during the a m peak hour and the intersection of East H Streetand Rutgers Avenue where the LOS will drop from C to D during thep m peak hour These are not considered significant impactshowever as the peak hour LOS at affected intersections isacceptable under the City S Threshold Criteria While the project

liA FL

will lower the LOS on three other segments of Telegraph Canyon Roadbetween otay Lakes Road and Eastlake Paokway Crest Drive and

Pas eo Del Rey and between Paseo Del Rey and Paseo Ladera and atthe intersection of East H Street and Hidden vista Drive the e

impacts will not be significant The project will incrementallycontribute to regional traffic congestion but by contributing toarea improvements called for in the ECVTPP the project will fullymitigate these cumulative effects

Compliance with the mitigation measures outlined above will be madeconditions of approval and ensured through the MMRP This willreduce traffic impacts to below a level of significance

4 8 Noise

An acoustical analysis of the Telegraph Canyon Estates PlannedCommunity was prepared by Maestre Greve Associates June 28 1991A peer review conducted by Illingworth ROdkin AcousticalEngineers supports the conclusions of the initial report Thesedocuments included in Appendix H serve as the basis for thefollowing analysis

Existing Conditions

Noise Criteria Community noise levels are measured in terms ofthe A weighted decibel abbreviated dBA A weighting is a

frequency correction that correlates overall sound pressure levelswith the frequency response of the human ear Exhibit 2 AppendixH

The equivalent noise level or Leq is the average noise level on

an energy basis for any specified time period The Leq for onehour is the energy average noise level during the hour It can be

thought of as the level of a continuous noise which has the same

energy content as the fluctuating noise level The equivalentnoise level has the same units of dBA therefore a sound measuredfor one hour may be expressed as a one hour Leq of 57 dBA

Several rating scales have been developed to measure communitynoise The predominant rating scale now in use in California forland use compatibility assessment is the Community Noise EquivalentLevel CNEL CNEL is the average equivalent A weighted soundlevel over a 24 hour period CNEL is calculated by adding 5decibels dBA to evening 7 PM to 10 PM sound level and 10 dBAto night 10 PM to 7 AM levels Typical outdoor CNEL noise levelsare shown in Figure 4 8 1

The criteria used to assess the acceptability of community noiselevels varies with the municipality At the time of this reportthe Telegraph Canyon Estates Project is within the jurisdiction ofthe County of San Diego but it is proposed to be annexed to theCity of Chula vista The city of Chula Vista uses 65 CNEL as thecritical criterion for assessing the compatibility of residentialland uses with noise sources Figure 4 8 2 it requires theexterior living areas yards and patios of new residences notexceed this level The City of Chula vista s indoor noisestandards are consistent with the state standards which requirenoise levels for both single and mUlti family residentialdevelopments not exceed 45 CNEL

Existina Noise Levels The project site is currently vacant Itis exposed to noise from traffic on Telegraph Canyon Road and from

adjacent residential development at Eastlake Shores SouthwesternCollege Estates and the otay Lakes Lodge Mobile Home Park Noisefrom aircraft or railroads does not affect the site

Existing traffic volumes and estimated speeds are calculated usingthe Highway Noise Model published by the Federal HighwayAdministration FHWA This model uses traffic volume vehiclemix vehicle speed and roadway geometry to compute the equivalentnoise level Equivalent noise levels are then correlated to timeperiods used in the calculation of CNEL Weighting these noiselevels and totaling them results in projected traffic CNEL CNELcontours are determined by monitoring noise over distances untilthe 60 65 and 70 CNEL contours are located

Study of existing traffic shows Telegraph Canyon Road and East HStreet generate moderate traffic levels and moderate noise levels

65 CNEL other roadways in the project vicinity including otayLakes Road Corral Canyon Road and Rutgers Avenue produce lowlevels of traffic and low levels of noise 60 CNEL Table 4 8 1

Future Noise Levels Traffic volumes for this study were obtainedfrom Urban Systems and were based on city of Chula vista Existingand Future Buildout data For the roadway analysis worst case

assumptions about future traffic and noise levels have been madeand were incorporated into the FHWA model Specifically noreductions in noise have been assumed in spite of legislationrequiring the manufacture of quieter vehicles

At buildout noise levels are projected to increase on roadways inthe vicinity of the proposed project Table 4 8 2 The trafficgenerated by the future S R 125 will be the largest noise source

affecting the area

Impact

Potential noise impacts are commonly divided into two groupstemporary and long term Temporary impacts are usually associatedwith noise generated by construction activities Long term impactsinclude impacts on surrounding land uses generated by the projectand those impacts which occur at the project site

TemDorarv ImDacts Construction of the project will introduceshort term noise impacts to the adjacent residences of EastlakeShores and Southwest Estates Noise generated by constructionequipment including trucks graders bulldozers concrete mixersand portable generators can reach high levels Grading activitiesgenerally present the greatest potential for noise impacts

Lonq Term Imnaets The Telegraph Canyon Estates project will notbe subject to adverse noise levels from existing sources As shownin Table 4 8 1 noise levels from existing roadways are consideredwithin the low to moderate range and do not exceed the 65 CNELresidential standard applied by the City of Chula vista

The project is not expected to create adverse noise levels whichwill affect existing residential development While the projectwill generate additional traffic 3500 ADT see Chapter 4 7

projections of future surface street traffic noise indicate an

increase in noise levels of a maximum of 1 dBA which will notraise noise levels significantly

No development is proposed on the portion of the site which lieswithin the 65 dBA contour for Telegraph Canyon Road Upon itscompletion S R 125 will generate noise levels greater than 65CNEL for those residences proposed on the eastern border of thesite Lots 128 to 151 Figure 4 8 3

MitigationjMonitoring

Temnorarv Imnaets Because noise levels associated withconstruction of the project are considered a temporary nuisancerather than an impact no mitigation and monitoring is requiredConstruction will be limited to the hours of 7 a m to 10 p m on

Monday through Friday 7 a m to 8 p m Saturdays and Sundays and

prohibited on Federal holidays Chula vista Municipal Code section17 25 050 k to minimize these temporary effects

Lonq Term Imnaets No significant noise impacts to surroundingareas are anticipated with implementation of the Telegraph CanyonEstates project therefore no mitigation and monitoring isrequired

1 Noise levels generated by traffic on future S R 125 will bereduced by constructing noise barriers along the rear propertylines of those lots proposed within the 65 dBA contour Figure4 8 4 Construction of 5 6 foot high gap free slumpstone or

masonry sound walls or barriers will reduce exterior noiselevels between 4 and 6 dBA in the rear yards of these homesbelow the 65 dBA threshold

All noise walls will be constructed in conformance with the

design guidelines set forth in the SPA which follow theEastlake I Design Guidelines Figure 4 8 5 As detailed inChapter 4 3 Aesthetics materials will consist of stucco or

stone walls with plexiglass panels to provide noise reductionwhile maintaining views from residences

2 Typically standard construction practices for Californialight frame structures will decrease interior noise levels by15 20 dBA Thus it is anticipated that interior noise levelsof the homes on the eastern border of the site will fallwithin the 45 dBA limit required However at the time thenoise report was prepared the potential for noise impacts tothe second floors of the proposed homes which will be abovethe noise barrier was not addressed It is possible thatadditional noise reducing building materials such as extrainsulation double paned glass or mechanical ventilation maybe required to mitigate noise impacts for these homes Nosecond story balconies shall face S R 125

All noise mitigation measures shall be made conditions of the TSMPrior to issuance of building permits the city of Chula vista sNoise Abatement Division shall review final grading plans todetermine whether additional noise materials are required forsecond stories of homes which may be impacted by noise from S R125

Analysis of Significance

Temporary impacts associated with project construction are notconsidered to be significant Long term impacts resulting fromfuture traffic on S R 125 are considered to be significant butwill be fully mitigated by adherence to the mitigation measuresoutlined above as well as compliance with the MitigationMonitoring and Reporting Program

4 9 Land Use General Plan Zoning

Existing Conditions

The Telegraph Canyon Estates project site is in the EasternTerritories Planning Area of the City of Chula Vista and the otaySubregional Planning Area of the County of San Diego It isdesignated as low medium residential 3 6 dwelling units per acrein the Chula vista General Plan Because the site is adjacent tothe Eastlake Community it is also subject to the Eastlake PolicyPlan which was prepared to supplement the City s General Plan

At this time however the site is within the jurisdiction of the

County of San Diego and will require a sphere of influenceamendment and annexation to the City of Chula Vista prior to

project implementation The County zoning for the site isAgricultural and it is designated as a Special Study Area S 87by the County s Regional Land Use Element 1979 The S 87designator places limited controls on the use of the parcel pendingspecific studies to allow rezoning or reclassification inconformance with adopted community or subregional plans Permitteduses are single family residential with a minimum 2 5 acre lotsize agricultural and permit uses subject to limitation suchas veterinary clinics

The site is mapped as Farmlands of Local Importance by the Stateof California Department of Conservation 1984 designating it as

land of importance to the local economy as determined by theBoard of Supervisors The site is not designated as an

Agricultural Preserve and there is no Williamson Act CaliforniaLand Conservation Act contract on the property

The property is currently vacant but it has been used for

agriculture and grazing in the past It is adjacent to residentialdevelopment on the north and west The northern border of thesite is a 2 1 manufactured slope separating the project from theEastlake Shores neighborhood This area is designated as medium

density residential 6 11 dwelling units per acre and is

developed with single family homes at a density of 7 dwelling unitsper acre The Southwestern College Estates neighborhood to thewest is also zoned single family residential and is designated lowmedium it is developed at a density of 5 to 6 dwelling units peracre The otay Lakes Lodge Mobile Home Park designated mediumdensity is southwest of the site and supports 6 6 dwelling unitsper acre An easement for the future extension of S R 125 iseast of the property and the otay Ranch area is to the south

otay Ranch comprises roughly 23 000 acres and is presentlyundergoing environmental review in association with a developmentproposal The portions of otay Ranch closest to the project are

proposed as medium density and low medium density residential

113

liJ c b

The project area is within a Local Agency Formation CommissionLAFCO designated special study area LAFCO was created to deal

with annexations to existing cities or other boundary changes The

Commission determines annexation based on a number of pertinentfactors including sphere of influence compatibility In October

1991 the applicant submitted an annexation application to LAFCO

along with the required supporting documents including a statement

explaining the history of the proposed annexation area

justification for annexation all necessary GDP SPA documents a

development and annexation time schedule and a statement of

provision of public services and access to the project area In

January 1992 LAFCO ruled the project s application acceptable for

processing and a final annexation determination will be made

pending environmental review Michael ott personal communication

Impact

General Plan and Zonina As previously discussed the TelegraphCanyon Estates project area was originally included as a part ofthe Otay Ranch area and has been included in previous studiesconducted for that larger project However because the projectarea is physically separated from the rest of the Otay Ranch

property by Telegraph Canyon Road and because the site is adjacentto the Eastlake Community it is now being proposed as a

development separate from Otay Ranch

The project will be developed in a manner similar to and compatiblewith the Eastlake Planned Community and will be processed as anamendment to the Eastlake Policy Plan General Development Planand Planned Community Regulations The GDP will amend the Eastlake1 GDP to include the Telegraph Canyon Estates site Figure 4 9 1The Telegraph Canyon Estates Planned Community will be implementedthrough the use of Planned Community zoning as part of Eastlake 1

The proposed GDP SPA and TSM comply with the City s Land UseElement requirements for density open space and park land Theyare also in conformance with the Eastlake Policy Plan General

Development Plan and Planned Community Regulations The designelements of the project detailed in Section 4 3 of this EIR havebeen developed in accordance with the Eastlake Design Manual

guidelines The proposed gross density of 3 1 dwelling units pergross acre is consistent with the Eastlake Policy Plan whichproposes an overall gross density of 3 7 dwelling units per acre

The net density of 4 3 dwelling units per acre is within theGeneral Plan s 3 6 dwelling unit per acre range for low mediumresidential It is also compatible with and below the density of

adjacent existing development at Eastlake Shores Southwestern

College Estates and the Otay Lakes Lodge Mobile Home Park The

development concept includes landform preservation which adheres tothe grading policies set forth in the General Plan see section4 3 Landform Alteration and Aesthetics

The project is required to be in conformance with the City s

Affordable Housing Policy which requires that projects exceeding 50

dwelling units provide a minimum of 10 percent of the units to lowand moderate income housing The SPA provides for the constructionof these units off site or payment of in lieu fees

Section 19 04 055 of the City s Zoning Ordinance requires that CPFsites consist of 1 39 acres of net usable land including setbacks

per 1 000 population The proj ect is estimated to generateapproximately 1 134 residents see section 4 10 the SPA and TSMhave reserved two parcels totalling 15 acres in the extremenorthwestern portion of the site for future development as a

Community Purpose Facility CPF Precise uses for this facilityhave not been defined but it is envisioned that it may house it

fii ii day care facility and general meeting rooms as allowed byEhs GDP The 15 acre CPF site proposed meets the acreagerequired by the ordinance

Mitigation Monitoring

In order to meet the requirements of the City s Affordable HousingPolicy the applicant will implement one of the following measures

1 Dedicate a parcel off site for the construction of low tomoderate income housing to meet the 10 requirement

2 Pay in lieu fees to the City for the construction of low tomoderate income housing to meet the 10 requirement

3 Provide a parcel which partially meets the 10 requirement and

pay in lieu fees to meet the rest

119

L1 fl tltJ

Proof of provision of low to moderate income housing shall be

submitted to the Planning Department prior to approval of the GDP

SPA and TSM

Impact

city of Chu1a vista Development of the Telegraph Canyon Estates

Project will require City expenditures and general service and

operational costs ie police services public works etcHowever project implementation will offset these expenses byproviding revenues to the City through assessed fees and taxes

Revenues from the Telegraph Canyon Estates Project are projected toexceed expenditures in every year of the study The PFFP projectstotal recurring revenues over the 15 year period to average about250 000 per year primarily as the result of property and other

taxes Table 4 11 6 Total recurring expenditures over the same15 year period will average about 191 000 once the project isestablished after year 3 Table 4 11 7 Expenditures vary from

approximately 33 000 to 170 000 initially The positive netfiscal impact of the development on the City of Chula Vista overa 15 year period is projected in excess of 878 000 and isdetailed in Table 4 11 8

otay Water District Implementation of the project will result inanticipated OWD water sales revenues of approximately 150 000 peryear once the development is fully occupied after about year 3

Table 4 11 9 Expenditures for the same time frame will be

fairly comparable to revenues but small net losses averaging 645annually are anticipated Table 4 11 9 However as thisrepresents about 04 percent of the development s anticipatedrevenues and expenditures no net fiscal impact is expected

Chu1a vista Elementary School District After establishment of the

project revenues to the Chula Vista Elementary School District are

anticipated at about 341 800 per year Table 4 11 10Expendi tures for the same time frame are expected to be around

346 800 for a net loss of approximately 5 000 per year Table4 11 10 However this amounts to only 15 percent of the

project s total revenues and does not constitute a significant netfiscal impact

Sweetwater union Hiqh School District Revenues to the High SchoolDistrict from implementation of the project will total about

412 000 annually after year 3 Table 4 11 11 Expenditures willaverage about 409 000 for a net positive balance of about 3 000per year Table 4 11 11

Additionally as discussed in Chapter 4 13 the applicant will berequired to join a Community Facilities District CFD to offsetimpacts to area schools

4 12 Parks Recreation Open Space

Existing Conditions

The city of Chula Vista currently has 245 acres of park land

including 4 community parks 19 neighborhood parks and 6 mJnJparks These parks are located primarily in the western portion ofthe City but recently open space recreational facilities andpark areas have been provided within the Eastlake Community in theeastern portion of the city As previously discussed a portionof the Eastlake Community is contiguous to the project area

The City of Chula vista has an established standard of three acresof park land per 1 000 population for neighborhood and communityparks a mixture of neighborhood and community parks can be

provided depending on the need of the specific community All new

development in Chula vista is subject to the City s Park LandDedication Ordinance Required park land dedication anddevelopment requirements are based on section 17 10 of the Chulavista Municipal Code In lieu of land dedication fees may be paidfor each dwelling unit or a combination of land dedication and

improvement fees may be applied As of March 12 1992 in lieuPark Acquisition and Park Development fees total 4 375 00 persingle family dwelling unit Patty smith personal communication

Impact

The Telegraph Canyon Estates project will increase park recreationuse demand by bringing approximately 1 134 new residents based on

a generation rate of 3 24 people per dwelling unit into the areaUnder the provisional standards for parks set forth by the City ofChula Vista the Telegraph Canyon Estates project is required toset aside a total of 3 4 acres as dedicated park land

The Telegraph Canyon Estates SPA proposes to dedicate 30 2 acres27 of the total 112 4 project acreage to private parks private

recreational areas and open space As shown in Figure 4 12 1 andTable 4 12 1 a portion of the central natural swale and the entiredrainage channel adjacent to Telegraph Canyon Road will be

preserved as open space as will the eastern property boundaryabutting the proposed S R 125 freeway These open space easementswill constitute approximately 20 acres A San Diego County Water

Authority easement in the center of the site will be developed asa private recreation and landscaped open space area The projectproposes a public trail connecting the project to the Eastlake

Community and to the private community recreation center Two

private recreational areas tetallift 9 6 acres are proposed Onewill consist of a recreational center with a changing cabana pool

Schools The project area is in the Chula Vista School Districtwhich serves grades K through six and the Sweetwater Union HighSchool District which serves grades seven through twelve All

elementary schools in the Telegraph Canyon area are operating at orabove capacity Eastlake Elementary located nearest to the

project area opened in Fall 1991 with a capacity enrollment of 600students Two additional elementary schools are planned for the

area Rancho Del Rey expected to open at capacity in 1993 andEastlake Greens slated for 1994 Rancho Del Rey will operate on a

year round basis to accommodate student load Shurson personalcommunication

Existing secondary schools in the Sweetwater Union High School

District pertinent to the project area are Bonita Vista Junior Highand Bonita vista High School Current enrollment at Bonita vistaJunior High School in 1991 92 is 1 772 students approximately 116over capacity student enrollment at Bonita Vista High School is1 992 and the school is operating at approximately 103 over

capacity Silva personal communication

The Sweetwater Union High School District as a whole is operatingover capacity Its total capacity temporary and permanent is26 818 and its enrollment as of October 1990 was 27 894 studentsThe District is projecting completion of Phase I of Eastlake HighSchool for Fall 1992 This school will have a total capacity of

2 400 students Phase I will accommodate 900 Silva Personal

Police Services The majority of the project area is currentlywithin the jurisdiction of the Chula vista Police Department a

small portion is within the jurisdiction of the County Sheriff s

Department Should police protection be required anywhere on the

property service would be provided by the Chula vista Police

Department Sisco personal communication The project area iscurrently under LAFCO consideration for annexation to the City of

Chula vista At such time as annexation occurs the property willfall totally within the jurisdiction of the City of Chula vistaPolice Department City threshold standards require a response timeof within 7 minutes for 84 of all emergency calls and within 7

minutes for 62 of all urgent calls Current planning provides for

increased police service for the entire Eastern Territories and

includes a police staff room in the Eastlake development to

complement existing facilities

Fire Protection The Telegraph Canyon Estates project area falls

within the jurisdiction of the City of Chula Vista Fire Department

The closest fire station to the project is station Four located at861 Otay Lakes Road south of East H street

A new fire station is planned for the Salt Creek Developmentnortheast of the project and will be required when standard serviceof response of 5 7 minute travel time from an existing or plannedfire station for 85 of all residential units cannot be met

Water San Diego is a semi arid region with limited surface and

ground water resources Over 90 of the area s water must be

imported and is supplied to the Metropolitan Water District MWDfrom the Feather River California Water project and from theColorado River The MWD distributes the water to other agenciesand water companies including the San Diego County Water Authority

CWA which in turn provides water to the Otay Water DistrictOWD the local member agency of the CWA that will store and

distribute water to the proposed project area

The MWD s current Colorado River allotment is about 1 2 millionacre feet but this is expected to decrease to 450 000 acre feetwhen the Central Arizona Project reaches completion MWD hopes to

purchase excess water from the Imperial Irrigation District and isnegotiating to do so Water is also available from the State Water

Project located in Northern California but this water cannot be

brought to San Diego County in sufficient quantity without a newcanal

In response to water shortage the MWA and CWA are in the processof constructing new water storage facilities including the

Domenigoni Reservoir in Riverside County which will store anadditional 800 000 acre feet of water upon completion in 1999 TheCWA is installing a new pipeline Pipeline 4 which will increasewater delivery capacity to the South Bay On the Federal level abill has recently been signed which will make 100 000 acre feet ofwater available from the Federal Central Valley Project to urbanareas

Also in response to the general lack of water availabilityespecially during peak demand periods the OWD has approved anallocation plan providing service to future development conditionedon the construction of terminal reservoirs Additionally a maximumof 1 900 Equivalent Dwelling Units EDUs per year can receivewater service

The City of Chula vista s water service Threshold Standards Policyensures adequate supplies of quality water are available projectapplicants are responsible for providing a service availabilityletter from the Water District for the City In turn the Cityrequires adequate water supply be available at the project sitebefore construction activities begin

Impact

Schools Based on the Chula vista School District generation rateof 0 3 students per single family and multi family dwelling unitthe 350 unit Telegraph Canyon Estates project will introduce 105

new elementary school students into the area Applying theSweetwater Union High School District generation rate of 0 29students per single multi family dwelling unit approximately 105

68 5 junior and 36 5 senior high students will be introduced bythe proposed project

Because the Chula vista School District elementary schools are all

operating above permanent capacities the addition of 105 primarygrade students will create significant adverse impacts to those

facilities Both Bonita Vista Junior and Senior High Schools are

over capacity as well so the addition of any number of students to

those facilities is also considered a significant adverse impact

Police Services The Telegraph Canyon Estates project willintroduce approximately 1134 new residents into the area The Chula

vista Police Department maintains a 1 3 officer per 1 000

population ratio Based on this ratio the Telegraph Canyon Estates

project will require an increase of approximately 1 4 policepersonnel

Fire Protection A new fire station located at the corner of

Lane Avenue and otay Lakes Road Telegraph Canyon Road is slated

to be operational in April of 1992 and will provide fire

Existing Conditions

The easternmost portion of the project area is crossed by a San

Diego Gas Electric Co SDG E transmission line corridortrending in a northwesterly southeasterly direction Thetransmission lines are contained midway within a 120 foot easementas shown in Figure 6 in Chapter 2 3 and in Figure 14 14 l

Currently there is one 230 kV circuit on the double circuit towerswithin the easement at a future date a 69 kV circuit will beadded and the potential for further circuit additions exists

Rose personal communication

The electric and magnetic fields produced by an overhead

transmission line are functions of the line s voltage current and

physical characteristics e g conductor size spacingconfiguration and clearance above the ground The amount ofradiation is governed by the relative balance between positive and

negative charges along the system The Ilesitive and 1leljative

eharljes aleRlj the system The greatest EMF emitters are

substations and transformers where the power is stepped down as

well as the system s distribution lines where varying demands forcurrent can yield imbalances APA 1992 In contrast thetransmission lines which run between generating plants andsubstations will have a constant and dependable field strengthbecause the substations use a constant volume of power

Based on the rough formulation of peak electric field given byKavet and Banks 1986 Nair and others 1990 and SDG E 1991the 60 Hz electric field directly below the 230 kV line is 3 9kV m and the field below the 69 kV line is approximately 0 9 kV m

The magnetic fields beneath transmission lines rarely exceedseveral tenths of a gauss several hundred milligauss Kavet and

Banks 1986 Both electric and magnetic fields drop off sharply ata distance of approximately 100 horizontal feet 30 m from the

centerline near midspan Kavet and Banks 1986

Electric and magnetic fields are found throughout nature and are inall living things These fields help hold matter together and are

a necessary part of the operation of the human nervous systemSubstantial data suggests that the higher range of field strengthscommonly encountered pose no greater risks than weaker fields In

some cases the electric and magnetic fields generated byappliances and electrical distribution systems in the home are

stronger than those produced by overhead transmission lines For

instance the magnetic field in front of a black and white computermonitor measures 2500 milligauss Miller 1989 whereas the

magnetic field directly under a 500 kV line averages 70 milligaussdoubling during periods of highest current flow APA 1992

Recent environmental health literature has addressed the biologicaleffects of extremely low frequency ELF electric and magneticfields cf Kavet and Banks 1986 Miller 1989 Bennett et al1990 Areas of concern in these studies include increased risk ofcancer changes in hormone levels neurophysiological changesmiscarriage and fetal development In recent years both the USDepartment of Energy and the Electric Power Research Institute haveconducted extensive research on the biological and health effectsassociated with exposure to 60 Hz electromagnetic fields Theresearch emphasis has been on electric fields rather than magneticprimarily because under transmission lines the induced bodycurrents generally result from the electric field Kavet and Banks1986 Nair et al 1990 However recent research has focused on

the effects associated with magnetic fields Slesin et al 1991

Although laboratory studies addressing effects of electric and

magnetic fields at the cellular level have suggested a disruptionof normal cell activity studies of whole animals exposedchronically to 60 Hz electric fields have failed to produce changesin indices of overall health or evidence of induced pathology withfew exceptions However effects from chronic exposure have beenobserved in a few areas behavior endocrinology neurophysiologyand possibly fetal development Kavet and Banks 1986 Miller 1989Nair et al 1990

Different studies have arrived at varying often conflictingconclusions Several epidemiological studies have suggested a linkbetween chronic exposure to electromagnetic fields and increasedrisk of leukemia and other cancers However most of these reportsfail to include measurements of the magnitude and duration of

exposure and many do not investigate alternative explanations for

changes in the state of health As these studies are inconclusivethis subject requires much more investigation Kavet and Banks

1986 Nair et al 1990 Larson 1991

Impact

As shown in Figure 6 in Chapter 2 3 two lots 150 and 151 and

the western edge of the tennis courts will immediately abut the

SDG E easement two other lots 149 and 152 lie within 100 feetof the transmission lines The effects of both electrical and

magnetic fields are strongest within 100 horizontal feet from thesource and then drop off sharply Kavet and Banks 1986Residences abutting or in close proximity to the transmission lineswill be subject to more intense electrical and magnetic field

exposure and as suggested by some studies occupants might be

possibly at greater risk for leukemia or other cancer related

disorders Since some studies conclude highest risk is associated

165

JtA 2 tJ

with prolonged and enduring contact use of the recreational courts

abutting the corridor might not result in the same type of

exposure However as discussed above various studies have arrivedat differing conclusions At the present time there are no

definitive data available to assess potential impacts to residents

living in proximity to transmission lines

Mitigation Monitoring

The issue of human health impacts from EMF exposure is too

speculative to reach a conclusion regarding the significance of

impacts Under CEQA the discussion of speculative matters

Guidelines section 15145 is permitted However if afterthorough investigation a particular impact is found to be too

speculative for evaluation the conclusions shall be noted and thediscussion terminated CEQA 1986 As no significant impacts havebeen identified no mitigation measures will be requiredHowever the following mitigation measure is recommended to reducethe potential to EMF exposure

1 The project applicant shall comply with any future policyadopted by the City of Chula vista prior to consideration ofthe Final Map

Analysis of Significance

Although there is no scientific consensus concerning the

possibility of adverse health effects from exposure to transmissionand or distribution lines certain studies have shown positivecorrelations between exposure to electromagnetic fields andincreased health disorders Current research does not provide aconsistent basis on which to conclude that exposure to transmissionlines causes health disorders but certain available evidence does

suggest an association between exposure and adverse health effectsIt is this association demonstrated in several studies whichprovide a basis for reducing exposure when possible

There are important qualifications however that are stated

throughout the literature on this issue

1 Transmission lines are not the only source of EMF fieldsHowever they may compound exposure by adding to existingfields within the home

2 EMF fields may create health disorders by acting together withother environmental stresses This possibility is not wellunderstood

3 The scientific research has not reached consensus on whetherchronic or intermittent exposure has greater health effectsBoth qualifications suggest that uncertainty remains onwhether there may by an increased risk with compoundexposures

5 0 COMPLIANCE WITH THRESHOLD STANDARDS POLICY

As discussed in section 1 2 of this EIR the City Council of Chula

vista established a Threshold Standards Policy and Growth

Management oversight Committee GMOC in 1987 to assure

maintenance of a high quality environment and adequate publicservices The program involves implementation of standards or

thresholds as determined by the City Council In conformance withthe policy this EIR has examined seven issues police fire and

emergency medical service parks and recreation water sewer

drainage and traffic for project level compliance Additionallythe EIR has evaluated the potential effects of the project on airquality economics and schools which will be assessed by the

GMOC The following discussion provides a summary of the EIR

analysis of these threshold issues

1 Fire and EMS The Threshold Standards Policy for fire

protection is to ensure that fire EMS staff are properly equippedtrained and funded to provide the desired level of service

throughout the City to maintain and improve the current level of

service The standard response time is set at seven minutes in 85of annual cases The GMOC determined that the threshold was

maintained on both a cumulative and project basis in 1990 City ofChula Vista 1991

As discussed in section 4 13 of the EIR the project area is withinthe jurisdiction of the City of Chula vista Fire Department The

closest existing fire station to the project area is station 4located at 861 Otay Lakes Road south of East H Street However

a new station located at the corner of Lane Avenue and otay Lakes

139 t grap Canyon Road i slated to e operatioIal in l1nUbl r11 of 1992 and w111 prov1de f1re protect1on to the

proJect7m The city s threshold standard will be met

2 Police The goal of the Threshold standards Policy for policeprotection seeks to maintain or improve the current level of policeservice by ensuring that police staff equipment and traininglevels are adequate to provide police service at the desired level

throughout the City The Threshold Standards Policy requires that

police units must respond to 84 of Priority 1 calls within seven

minutes or less and maintain an average response time to all

Priority 1 calls of 4 5 minutes or less Police units must respondto 62 10 of Priority 2 calls within seven minutes or less and

maintain an average response time to all Priority 2 calls of seven

minutes or less

As discussed in section 4 13 of the EIR the project will requirethe addition of 14 personnel to the city s police force to

maintain the Threshold Standards Policy of 1 3 officer s per 1 000

population ratio Funding for additional personnel will be

167

ItA 2

provided by assessed taxes and fees on the project as detailed inSection 4 13

3 Traffic The goal of the Traffic Threshold Standard is toprovide and maintain a safe and efficient street system within theCity Objectives defined to meet this goal included the timelyprovision of adequate local circulation system capacity in responseto planned growth maintaining acceptable levels of service LOSand to plan new roadway segments and signalized intersections tomaintain acceptable standards at buildout of the General PlanThree Standards have been set

City wide To maintain LOS C or better at all intersectionswith the exception that LOS 0 may occur at signalizedintersections for a period not to exceed a total of two hoursper day

West of I 805 intersections not meeting this standard maycontinue to operate at the 1987 LOS but shall not worsen

City wide No intersection shall operate at LOS F as measuredfor the average weekday peak hour

The GMOC determined that the threshold was maintained on both acumulative and project basis in 1990 City of Chula Vista 1991

As discussed in Section 2 8 of this EIR the LOS on severalroadways in the project s vicinity is forecast to drop tounacceptable levels in the future with or without the proposedproject The project s traffic will not result in significantdirect impacts to area roadways or intersections However theproject will contribute on a fair share basis to trafficimprovements delineated in the East Chula Vista TransportationPhasing Plan to mitigate its cumulative impacts Thus future LOSand roadway capacities will be within the threshold levels set bythe city

4 Parks and Recreation The goal of the Threshold StandardsPolicy is to provide a diverse and flexible park system which meetsboth the active and passive recreational needs of the citizens ofChula Vista The objectives are to provide park and recreationalopportunities in a timely manner and to implement a five yearmaster plan which describes the location facility improvementsand funding program for proposed neighborhood and community parksThe Standard sets a ratio of three acres of neighborhood andcommunity parkland with appropriate facilities per 1000 residentseast of I 805 The GMOC determined that the threshold wasmaintained on both a cumulative and project basis in 1990 City ofChula Vista 1991

As detailed in Section 4 13 of the EIR the proj ect will berequired to pay in lieu fees As allowed under Section 17 10 of the

Chula vista Municipal Code the applicant will also pay in lieu

park fees to satisfy the requirement established by the ThresholdStandard

s Drainaae The goal of the drainage standard in the

Threshold Standards POlicy is to provide a safe and efficient storm

drainage system to protect residents and property in the City of

Chula vista The Threshold Standards Policy mandates that

individual projects will provide necessary improvements consistentwith the Drainage Master Planes and city Engineering StandardsStorm water flows and volumes are required to be within CityEngineering Standards Additionally the GMOC annually reviews the

performance of the City s storm drain system to determine itsability to meet the goals and objectives The GMOC determined that

the threshold was maintained on both a cumulative and project basisin 1990 City of Chula Vista 1991

As discussed in section 4 2 of the EIR implementation of the

proposed project will not significantly alter the project area s

drainage and it will meet the City s Engineering Standards and

requirements set forth in the Drainage Master Plan The stormdrain plan proposed in the SPA will keep storm water flows and

volumes within City Engineering limits Thus the project willmeet the Threshold Standards Policy for drainage

6 Water The goal of the Threshold Standards POlicy for water

service is to ensure that adequate supplies of quality water are

available to the City The objectives include ensuring that

adequate storage treatment and transmission facilities are

constructed concurrently with planned growth and that water

quality standards are not jeopardized during growth and

construction The OWD has provided a letter addressing water

service availability see Appendix J In order to comply with the

City s Threshold Standard for water service the project applicantwill obtain a service availability letter from the Otay Water

District prior to approval of the TSM

The City of Chula vista must also provide development forecasts to

the SDCWA the Sweetwater Authority and the Otay water districtson an annual basis The annual reports are required to address

water availability to the city and Planning Area considering both

short and long term perspectives amount of current capacityincluding storage capacity now used or committed ability of

affected facilities to absorb forecast growth evaluation of

funding and site availability for projected new facilities and

other relevant information to the District s desire to communicateto the city and GMOC Both the growth forecast and water district

response letters are required to be submitted to the GMOC for

review The GMOC determined that the threshold was maintained on

both a cumulative and project basis in 1990 city of Chula Vista1991

J 1 2 L 7

7 Sewer The Threshold Standards Policy requires thatindividual projects provide necessary improvements consistent withSewer Master Plans and City Engineering Standards to meet the goalof providing a healthful and sanitary sewer collection and disposalsystem for City residents The Threshold mandates that sewageflows and volumes not exceed City Engineering Standards

Additionally the City is required to provide an annual report tothe San Diego Metropolitan Sewer Authority which evaluates proposeddevelopment and sewage capacity The report must includeinformation on the amount of current capacity now used orcommitted ability of affected facilities to absorb forecastgrowth evaluation of funding and site availability for projectednew facilities and other relevant information Both the growthforecast and Authority response letters are required for submittalto the GMOC for its review The GMOC determined that the thresholdwas maintained on both a cumulative and project basis in 1990 Cityof Chula Vista 1991

As detailed in Section 4 13 the Sewer Master Plan prepared for theproject noted that the buildout of Telegraph Canyon Estates isprojected to occur in four phases and that the proposed projectwill be constructed @ ifjlla c in Phase ltIm At that timeadequate sewer capacity Tsiexpected to be present and no adverseimpacts are expected If project implementation is later howeveradditional sewer improvements may be required This will beassured by monitoring during the phasing of construction of theproposed project as well as other projects within the TelegraphCanyon area

8 Air Oua1itv The goal of the Threshold Standards Policy is tomaintain and improve the ambient air quality enjoyed by thecitizens of Chula Vista The objective acknowledges that airquality is a regional issue which cannot be effectively controlledby the City and seeks to implement the tactics established by the

currently adopted Regional Air Quality Maintenance Plan AQMPThe City is required to provide a yearly report to the APCD whichpresents a 12 to 15 month development forecast to allow the APCDto evaluate impacts on current and future air quality managementplans The growth forecast and APCD responses are given to theGMOC for review The GMOC determined that the threshold wasmaintained on both a cumulative and project basis in 1990 City ofChula Vista 1991

As discussed in Section 4 4 of the EIR the project will createboth short term and long term air quality impacts Short termimpacts are construction related and will be reduced to below alevel of significance by standard dust control practicesThe incremental addition of pollutants from any individual projectmay be considered a significant impact SANDAG s regional growthforecasts are based on land uses established in area general plansThe project exceeds the Series V Growth Forecast used in the 1982

SIP which serves as the current AQMP However it will be

reviewed for consistency with the Series VII Growth Forecast beingused to update the SIP which will be adopted as the new AQMP The

project will be required to comply with the updated air qualityplan This will be reviewed by the GMOC during its annual update

9 Economics The goal of the Threshold Standards Policy is to

provide land uses and activities that respond to the economic needsof the residents and the City of Chula vista Fiscal ImpactReports FIRs and Public Facility Financing Plans PFFPs are

required to evaluate and plan for healthy economic attributes inbalance with environmental social and public policy criteriacity of Chula Vista 1987 The GMOC is provided with an annual

report prepared by staff which addresses the economic condition ofthe City and its residents and includes a 12 to 15 month

development forecast and an evaluation of its economic effectsIncluded in the report are statistics and data relevant to

residents economic well being income level average home priceetc vitality of local business number of business licensescommercial vacancy and lease rates etc and significant fiscal

changes over the previous year The GMOC determined that the

threshold was maintained on both a cumulative and project basis in1990 City of Chula Vista 1991

As discussed in Sections 4 10 and 4 11 of the EIR the proposedTelegraph Canyon Estates project will introduce approximately 1134

residents A PFFP has been prepared for the project and is on filewith the City of Chula Vista The project is consistent with the

General Plan guidelines for new housing and development of this

project is not anticipated to cause any adverse housing impacts

The project will not create any new employment opportunitiesHowever because of regional and local employment availabilityincluding retail commercial and industrial opportunities withinthe adjacent Eastlake development adverse employment impacts are

not expected Further implementation of the project will

introduce additional workers into the Chula vista labor force

which is anticipated by SANDAG growth projections

Development of the project will incur expenditures to the City of

Chula vista but these expenses will be offset by revenues providedto the city through assessed fees and taxes A positive net fiscal

impact of the development on the city of Chula Vista over a 15

year period is projected in excess of 878 000

No significant net fiscal impacts are expected to affect the OtayWater District or the Chula vista Elementary or Sweetwater Union

High School District

10 Schools The goal of the Threshold Standards Policy is to

ensure that the Chula vista City School District and the Sweetwater

Union High School District have the necessary school sites and

171

tf4 r21i

funds to meet the needs of students in new development areas in a

timely manner The objective of the standard is to providedistrict personnel with current development forecast to allow themto plan and implement school building and or allocation programs ina timely manner The City is required to provide the districtswith a 12 to 15 month development forecast and request anevaluation of the districts abilities to accommodate the forecastand continuing growth The districts replies are required toaddress the following issues

1 Amount of current capacity now used or committed

2 Ability to absorb forecast growth in affected facilities

3 Evaluation of funding and site availability for projected newfacil ities

other relevant information the District s

communicate to the City and GMOC

The growth forecast and school district response letters are

provided to the GMOC for review The GMOC determined that thethreshold was maintained on both a cumulative and project basis in1990 City of Chula Vista 1991

As discussed in section 4 13 of this EIR the 350 unit TelegraphCanyon Estates project will introduce 105 new elementary schoolstudents and approximately 105 68 5 junior and 36 5 senior highstudents Payment of fees through annexation to CFD s for theChula vista and Sweetwater Union High School Districts will reducedirect and cumulative impacts to area schools to below a level ofsignificance No further mitigation measures will be required

11 Libraries The goal of the library Threshold Standards Policyis to provide a high quality contemporary library system to meetcommunity needs The objective of the standard is to supplementthe central library facility by providing branch facilities in theMontgomery Otay area and east of 1 805 The City s library ratiois set at 500 gross square feet of library adequately equipped andstaffed per 1 000 population

In 1990 the GMOC determined that the City had a deficit of

approximately 10 000 square feet of library space The Citysubsequently applied for and received approval of CaliforniaLibrary Construction and Renovation Bond Act funds A new 35 000sq ft library is to be constructed in the Montgomery Otayplanning area and a 24 000 sq ft library is planned in theSweetwater Bonita planning area A 4 000 sq ft library is to beincluded in the Eastlake Village Center that project has been onhold pending finalization of construction plans for the commercialcomplex City of Chula Vista 1991

6 0 ALTERNATIVES

The California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines Section15126d require the discussion of a no project alternative and of

reasonable alternatives to the project which could feasiblyobtain the basic objectives of the project and the discussion of

alternatives shall focus on alternatives capable of eliminating anysignificant adverse environmental effects or reducing them to a

level of insignificance even if these alternatives will impede to

some degree the attainment of project objectives or will be more

costly The range of alternatives required in an EIR is governedby rule of reason that requires the EIR to set forth only those

alternatives necessary to permit a reasoned choice The key issue

is whether the selection and discussion of alternatives fosters

informed decision making and informed public participation A

range of alternatives was considered for the proposed projectincluding the No project Alternative No Development AlternativeAlternative Design A and Alternative Design B and the Off site

Project Alternatives

6 1 No Project Alternative

Under the No Project alternative two scenarios are possible no

project and no development

No Pro ect This alternative will consist of no annexation GDP

SPA or TSM for the project The site will remain under countyjurisdiction and will remain under limited control under the S 87

Special Study Area land use designation until studies were

completed to enable reclassification of the property At this

point it would be speculative to determine what type of

development will be allowed but it is anticipated that it will be

required to provide either a transitional land use from adjacentundeveloped land to more densely developed land such as that

present at Eastlake Shores or be developed consistent with the

type of residential uses existing on adjacent parcels within the

city of Chula vista It is probable that an overall developmentplan such as a specific plan will be required by the county to

avoid piecemeal development on a lot by lot basis

If the property were developed under the existing land use

designation and zoning the 2 5 acre minimum lot size would allow

a gross maximum of 44 single family dwelling units on the l12 acre

parcel This number will likely be lower in reality given the

constraints on developable land easements for SDG E and the

SDCWA wetland area and setbacks for scenic highways and S R

125 All grading will be subject to the County s Resource

Protection Ordinance Impacts to landform alteration aesthetics

air quality biological resources traffic air quality and

hydrology will probably be reduced Impacts to geology soils

noise and public health will be similar to the proposed project simpacts under this alternative Impacts regarding social factorscommunity tax structure and demands on public services will likelybe greater Given the site s proximity to the City of Chula Vistathese impacts will directly affect the city schools parkssewers water supply emergency services etc andThreshold Standards Policy would probably be exceeded Thus thisis not considered to be an environmentally preferable alternative

No DeveloDment Under this alternative the project area willremain vacant and land use will remain unchanged No impacts to

geology hydrology landform alteration air quality biologicalresources traffic noise public facilities parks or publichealth will occur This alternative would not be consistent withthe City of Chula vista s or County of San Diego s land usedesignations for residential development and it would result inloss of tax revenue for the city It would not achieve the basicobjectives of the proposed project However because it wouldavoid the significant impacts which would result from the proposedproject it is considered to be the environmentally superioralternative

6 2 Alternative Design A

This alternative shown conceptually in Figure 6 1 will be areduced project developed at a low medium residential density R 17 A total of 280 single family homes would be constructed onapproximately 70 acres resulting in a density of 4 0 dwelling unitsper acre Open space would increase to 316 acres and wouldencompass a larger portion of the central swale on site TheCommunity Purpose Facility would remain the same as in the proposedproject

No circulation plan has been designed for this alternative butaccess points would be the same as those in the proposed projectand the overall street and cul de sac system would be similar Ifthis alternative is adopted the following impacts are expected tooccur

Geoloav soils This alternative would be anticipated to havesimilar impacts to those of the proposed proj ect Constraints fromthese factors would not expected to be more or less difficult underthis alternative or the proposed project

Hvdroloav Water Oualitv Groundwater In terms of project drainageeffects on water quality the discharge into the Telegraph CanyonCreek Channel is regulated by the National Pollutant DischargeElimination System NPDES permit requirements as such neitherthe proposed project nor this alternative or any alternative canhave a discharge that significantly degrades as defined by the EPA

in the NPDES requirements the water quality in the receivingchannel Fewer houses would probably translate to fewer vehiclesusing and parking on the streets resulting in less material to be

carried off during rainstorms While this could allow easierattainment of the NPDES requirements the reduction in material isnot likely of sufficient magnitude to affect the way the systemwould be designed to meet NPDES requirements

This alternative may result in less runoff as there would likelybe less hardscape and more permeable surface yards open spaceEven with the same design the reduction would not be proportionalto the drop in units as the road system could not be reduced

proportionally Calculations on storm drainage capacity in

Telegraph Canyon Creek channel showed that the proposed project s

input is less than significant and that the channel would still bewell under capacity This alternative may result in less runoffbut the amount of runoff was not found to have a significant impactwith the proposed project

with the inclusion of much of the central swale in open space there

would likely be somewhat more input of fertilizers pesticides and

herbicides into the drainage than under the proposed project as

there would likely be private yards adjacent to the swale Privateuse of these chemicals is difficult if not impossible to control

Landform Al teration Aesthetios Landform alteration would be

similar under the proposed project and this alternative The

overall landform would be retained and the street system must be

created regardless of the 60 unit difference

Aesthetics is a subjective environmental issue People who objectto the placement of a 340 unit residential project on this sitewould likely object to the placement of a 280 unit projectconversely even with having to maintain the street system a

reduction in units may allow the designers to create a more

aesthetically pleasing project Given that a street system is

necessary it is likely that the proposed project and a designunder this alternative would be considered aesthetically similar bymost passers by

within the project the retention of the marsh area would likelyhave mixed reactions from the residents Small areas of marsh do

not have the wildlife that people find attractive The marsh would

quickly become a solid band of cattails if left alone This is not

considered aesthetically pleasing by most people The odors of the

decomposing vegetation in the summer and the presence of mosquitoand biting flies would be objectionable to residents living near

the marsh From an aesthetics perspective the landscaping of the

proposed project and the elimination of the biting insects would

likely be considered preferable by the majority of residents

Air Oualitv From a project perspective the reduction in unitsassociated with this alternative would result in lesser air qualityimpacts as fewer vehicles would be present and fewer fireplacesand furnaces would be used From a regional perspective impactsdepend on whether it is assumed that the 60 unit differencedisappears or if it is fulfilled elsewhere The main source ofair pOllution in the county is from vehicles If the 60 units willbe supplied elsewhere and if that compositely creates more travelfor the inhabitants to work and shop then greater air qualityeffects will occur than with the proposed project If the 60 unitdifference disappears or if the displaced inhabitants selecthousing that will result in less travel then lesser air qualityeffects will occur than with the proposed project

Bioloaical Resources As noted in the Biological Resourcestechnical report and in the EIR section the marsh area is not ofhigh value While preservation on site of resources is usually thepreferable choice given the size and isolated nature of the marsharea to be retained preservation of higher quality habitat offsite as in the proposed project would result in greaterecological value

cultural Resources There is no impact on cultural resources witheither the proposed project or this alternative

TransDortation The number of projected ADTs for the proposedproject is 3500 with this alternative that number would be reducedto 2800 Less traffic would be considered a beneficial impactNo signal would be warranted under this alternative

Noise The noise generator for this project is largely the futurestate Route 125 and Telegraph Canyon Road These noise sources areindependent of the project density Under this alternative moreredesign may be possible as a part of the noise mitigationLand Use General Plan Zonina Both the proposed project andalternative are in general compliance with these issuesissue of affordable housing and community purpose facilitiesbe met with the proposed project and this alternative

alternative The decreased number of units would result in fewer

funds for park land and no private recreational facilities would be

provided

Public Services and utilities Lesser demands would be placed on

public services and utilities with this alternative The number of

students projected would reduced from 105 to 84

Public Health The lesser density of this alternative may allow

designers to incorporate greater distance from the transmissionlines At this time it is not possible to determine significanceof the lines to public health

6 3 Alternative Design B

This alternative would be identical to the proposed project exceptthe proposed street system would be public rather than privateAll impacts associated with this project would be the same as withthe proposed project except those related to Community Tax

structure

As currently proposed the project contains approximately 2 5 milesof private local streets As such the City of Chula vista would

not incur any maintenance costs Such costs would be borne by the

property owners through a homeowners association If the streets

were dedicated to the City of Chula vista as public streets

however the City would be required to maintain them within its

regular street maintenance program in its Operations and

Maintenance Budget

As discussed in Section 4 11 the proposed project would have a net

positive fiscal balance for the City of Chula Vista with assessed

fees and taxes exceeding costs with the City assuming the streets

and the ensuing maintenance that fiscal balance would remain

positive although it would be reduced Under the proposed projectprivate streets the net positive fiscal balance in year fifteen

would be projected at 827 043 Willdan 1992 Under thisalternative public streets the projected net positive fiscalbalance would be 454 718 This is a reduction of 372 325

64 Off Site Alternatives

In response to recent court decisions Citizens of Goleta Valleyvs Board of Supervisors of the County of Santa Barbara 243 CalRptr 339 1988 and 214 Cal App 3d176 Cal Rptr 1989 EIRshave been required to evaluate off site alternatives for projectsin addition to project alternatives on the same site

In recent years on going development in the Eastern Territoriesarea of the City of Chula Vista has necessitated the analysis ofalternative sites for a number of projects sites have beenidentified based on the needs of various projects and have beendivided into feasible and infeasible sites based on constraintssuch as steep topography and sensitive resources This EIR willevaluate the feasibility of relocating the Telegraph Canyon Estatesproject to three alternative sites Figure 6 2 which wereidentified in the Final Supplemental EIR for the Rancho Del Rey SPAIII Plan P D Technologies Inc 1990 Portions of thefollowing site descriptions are herein incorporated by reference

64 1 Otay Ranch Alternative Site

This site consists of approximately 500 acres within the otay Ranchproperty and is located southwest of the Telegraph Canyon Estatessite Like the Telegraph Canyon Estates property this site iswithin the unincorporated area of San Diego County

As shown in Figure 6 3 this site encompasses a portion of PoggiCanyon Elevations range between 350 feet MSL to 495 feet MSL butoverall the topography is relatively flat with most slopes under25 percent The site is within the County of San Diego S otaySubregional Plan and is subject to land use and zoning regulationsdefined in that document The General Plan s land useclassification for the property is Residential low medium density3 6 du per acre and the site is zoned A 70 Limited Agricultureallowing 1 du per 4 or 8 acres The proposed otay Ranch planwould provide low to medium density 3 6 dujacre residentialdevelopment on this parcel Development of the proposed project onthis alternative site is expected to result in the followingimpacts

Geoloav soils This site is expected to be susceptible to the sameregional seismic hazards as those affecting the proposed projectarea Strong groundshaking could trigger landslides in PoggiCanyon and if the alluvium present becomes saturated liquefactioncould occur Expansive clay soils in the otay and SweetwaterFormations would pose hazards similar to those in Telegraph CanyonErosion could be a problem particularly along Poggi Canyon Asite specific geotechnical study would be required but it isexpected that significant geology and soils impacts could be fullymitigated on this site

HYdroloav Water OualitY Groundwater Increased impervious surfacesassociated with development of this site would result in similarimpacts to drainage and hydrology Any storm water discharge intoPoggi Canyon would be subject to NPDES requirements Noinformation is available on the presence of groundwater at thissite but if it were identified during the geotechnical studiesadverse impacts could be avoided A storm drain system would be

required to mitigate runoff impacts to Poggi Canyon

Landform Alteration Aesthetics The relatively level topography ofthis site would require less landform alteration than would the

Telegraph Canyon Estates site Because this site is also adjacentto Telegraph Canyon Road the project design would need to complywith Scenic Highway criteria The proposed architectural stylewould be compatible with the Eastlake Community if the project were

developed here but perhaps less compatible with the balance of

otay Ranch depending upon the architectural styles that would beused in that project

Air Ouality Because this site is in the immediate vicinity of theTelegraph Canyon Estates site air quality impacts are expected tobe the same as those resulting from the proposed project

Bioloaical Resources Previous biological surveys of this sitehave identified native vegetation including maritime succulentscrub Diegan coastal sage scrub and native grassland Recon1989 These habitats support a number of sensitive plant andanimal species which could be adversely impacted by sitedevelopment The proposed project is smaller 112 overall acresthan this alternative site 500 acres so it is possible that thesite could incorporate sufficient open space to offset impacts tothese resources However other factors such as brush managementwould also need to be considered A site specific survey would be

required to determine what resources the TSM might impact on thisproperty

cultural Resources No cultural resources are known to occur onthis site P D Technologies 1990 therefore no impacts are

expected to occur if the project were developed here A sitespecific survey would be required to verify this and to determinethat the project would not result in off site impacts to adjacentresources if any are present

TransDortation Primary access to the project if developed onthis site would probably be via Telegraph Canyon Road however

secondary access would not be provided at this time Trafficvolumes would not be changed Therefore traffic impacts would

probably be significant but mitigable as with the proposedproject

Noise If the project were developed on the Otay Ranch site itwould not be subject to impacts from future noise associated with

187

11 t3

S R 125 The size of this parcel would allow adequate setbacks to

avoid impacts from vehicular traffic on Telegraph Canyon Road

Thus if the project were developed on this site it is not

expected to be subject to adverse noise impacts

Land Use General Plan Zonina The proposed density for the project4 6 dwelling units would be consistent with the General Plan s

land use classification for the property although the number of

units would need to be increased on the SOD acre parcel to maintainthis ratio Like the proposed project this parcel would requireannexation to the city of Chula Vista and LAFCO requirements would

be similar Because this parcel is not geographically separatedfrom Otay Ranch it is less suitable for development designed for

compatibility with the Eastlake Community

Community social Factors and Communi tv Tax structure Developmentof the proposed 350 unit project on this parcel would generatefewer people than proposed for this portion of Otay Ranch reducinghousing and employment requirements but also reducing tax revenue

to the city of Chula vista

Parks Recreation ODen SDace Open space would be significantlyincreased if the project were implemented on this parcel The sitecould potentially provide park land for other adjacent developmentThe feasibility of this would depend in part however on the

biological constraints of the site and areas which would requirepreservation as natural open space

Public services and utilities Impacts associated with prov s on

of public services and utilities to this site are expected to bethe same as those associated with the proposed project

Public Health No impacts to public health are anticipated tooccur with implementation of the project on this site

In summary if the Otay Ranch alternative site is chosen impactsto geology soils hydrology water quality groundwater air qualitycultural resources traffic public services and pUblic healthare expected to be similar to those which would occur withimplementation of the project as proposed Fewer impacts relatedto landform alteration and noise are expected However

impacts to biological resources could potentially increase and theeffect on community tax structure would be greater Particularlyin terms of biological resources this alternative is notconsidered to be environmentally preferable

64 2 Otay Mesa Alternative Site

This site also consists of approximately 500 acres of vacant landIt is within the juriSdiction of the City of San Diego and isabout 0 5 miles east of I 80S north of Otay Mesa Road Figure

6 4 The topography is characterized by rolling hills ridgesand small canyons over about two thirds of the site Elevationsrange from 340 feet MSL to 520 feet MSL with the majority of

slopes under 25 percent

The site is presently vacant and is surrounded by vacant land Itis within the City of San Diego s Otay Mesa Community Planning areaand is designated for mixed land uses very low to low mediumdensity residential neighborhood commercial parks and schools

The property includes portions of the proposed California Terraceand Hidden Trails projects Brown Field is approximately one mileeast of the site Development of the proposed project on thisalternative site is expected to result in the following impacts

Geoloav Soils This site like the proposed project site and the

otay Ranch site is expected to be susceptible to regional seismichazards and adverse soil conditions associated with bentoniticclays Additionally however this site possesses a northeast tosouthwest trending fault related to the La Nacion fault system andshall be considered potentially active P D Technologies 1990A site specific geotechnical study would be required to determinewhether significant geology and soils impacts could be fullymitigated on this site

Hydroloav Water Quality Groundwater Impacts similar to those

projected for the proposed project site and the otay Ranch site are

expected to occur on the Otay Mesa property NPDES regulationswould also be applicable on this parcel as it has several unnamedintermittent streams which could be affected Minor groundwaterhas been encountered in canyon bottoms during previous studies

Geocon 1984 Additional site specific hydrologic studies wouldbe required to determine how significant impacts could be avoidedor reduced if the project were developed on this site

Landform Alteration Aesthetics As noted by P D Technologies1990 only one third of this site is relatively level with the

topography dominated by ridges and canyons Landform alterationon site even if confined to the smaller area required by the

proposed project would likely be significant other constraintssuch as the location of sensitive biological and cultural

resources could further restrict development on flatter terrainon site Therefore landform alteration impacts could be

significant and unmitigable if the project were developed on thisparcel

Air Oua1ity The project would not be expected to generatesignificant direct air quality impacts if developed on the OtayMesa parcel As with other sites in the regional airshedcumulative impacts could occur As this project would involve

development of fewer residential units than assumed under the

City s General Plan and Otay Mesa Community Plan cumulativeimpacts would probably not be significant

Bioloaical Resources Biological surveys of this area have beenconducted for the California Terraces project While much of thisparcel has been heavily disturbed by agricultural and off roadvehicle activity it still supports valuable wildlife habitat anda number of sensitive species Coastal mixed chaparral coastalsage scrub and vernal pools have been mapped on this parcel anda number of sensitive plant species are known from this parcel Of

particular interest is the little leaf rose Rosa minutifolia R ED Code 3 3 1 present in California only at this site Sensitivebird species known to use the site include the Californiagnatcatcher cactus wren and Cassin s finch and the San Diegohorned lizard has been found here Thus development of the

project on this site would likely result in significant and

possibly unmitigable impacts to biological resources

Cultural Resources Cultural resource surveys and site testing onthis parcel have been conducted Several significantarchaeological sites are known to occur on the flatter portions ofthe property some of these have been undergoing mitigation inassociation with the California Terraces project At a minimumthese previous survey and testing reports would require reviewprior to evaluating the extent of impacts to cultural resourcesfrom project implementation on this site

TransDortation Primary access to the project if developed onthis site would probably be via Otay Mesa Road The project would

generate fewer ADTs than that assumed under the existing GeneralPlan and Community Plan designations but a site specific studywould be required to determine the significance of any trafficrelated impacts

Noise The Otay Mesa site is subject to noise from vehiculartraffic on 1 805 and Otay Lakes Road Additionally the site isaffected by air traffic from Brown Field located approximately 0 3miles east of the site Previous studies of noise impacts for theCalifornia Terraces project have identified significant impacts Asair traffic increases at Brown Field and the possibility of a

regional airport facility at this location continues to bediscussed future noise levels may increase dramatically If the

project were constructed on this site further study would be

required to determine whether site specific mitigation measures canbe developed to reduce these impacts to below a level of

significance

Land Use General Plan Zonina The proposed density for the project4 6 dwelling units would be consistent with the San Diego General

Plan s and Otay Mesa Community Plan s land use classifications forthe property Like the proposed proj ect this parcel would requireannexation to the City of Chula Vista and LAFCO approval would be

required The ramifications of annexing this parcel to the City of

Chula vista and deleting it from the City of San Diego have the

potential for more significant impacts than those associated with

annexing a parcel from the unincorporated area however

communitv social Factors and Communi tv Tax structure Impactsassociated with development of the proposed 350 unit project on

this parcel are expected to be similar to developing the project as

proposed and no significant impacts would occur

Parks Recreation ODen SDace As with the Otay Ranch alternativeopen space would be increased substantially if the project were

implemented on this parcel and this site could also potentiallyprovide park land for other adjacent development However it isanticipated that steep slopes and biological constraints would

require the preservation of much of the natural portions of the

site

Public Services and utilities Impacts associated with prov1s1onof public services and utilities to this site are expected to bethe same as those associated with the proposed project

Public Health As with the proposed project this site is subjectto impacts associated with electromagnetic fields due to thelocation of overhead transmission lines although it is not

possible to determine the significance of these impacts Howeverthe issue of airport safety would need to be addressed if the

project were constructed on this parcel

In summary if the Otay Mesa alternative site is chosen impacts totraffic community social factors and tax structure and publicservices are expected to be similar to those which would occur withimplementation of the project as proposed Fewer impacts wouldoccur with respect to parks recreation and open space Howeverit is anticipated that impacts would be greater to geology soilshydrology water quality groundwater landform alteration andaesthetics biological and cultural resources land use generalplan elements and public health Thus this alternative is notconsidered to be environmentally preferable

The site is currently vacant with development existing to the eastand approved to the west The future extension of S R 125 is justover one mile west of the site

site topography is characterized by rolling hills which have beenshaped by past plowing and disking associated with historical dryfarming Elevations range between 600 and 700 feet MSL on thenorthern portion and from a low of 484 feet MSL to a maximum 623feet MSL in the extreme southern portion Salt Creek an importantbiological and aesthetic resource is located on site

Geoloav soils This site like the proposed project site and otheralternative sites is expected to be susceptible to regionalseismic hazards Several ancient landslides and possible landslidefeatures have been found on this parcel and there is the potentialfor liquefaction in localized areas of alluvium A site specificgeotechnical study would be required to determine whether

significant geology and soils impacts could be fully mitigated

HYdroloav Water OualitY Groundwater Impacts similar to those

projected for the proposed project site and the other alternativesites are expected to occur on the Eastlake vistas and Woods

property Additionally Salt Creek flows south on this parcel theenforcement of NPDES and State Water Resources Control Board

regulations would be required to prevent additional urban

pollutants from entering Lower otay Reservoir and San Diego BayIt is possible that mitigation could require alteration of the

drainage pattern requiring at least State and possibly Federal

permits the feasibility of this would be evaluated in sitespecific hydrologic studies

Landform Alteration Aesthetics Like the proposed project sitethe topography of this site is characterized by rolling hills and

significant landform alteration impacts would be anticipated If

implemented on this parcel the project would be required to meet

guidelines for Scenic Highways due to the Scenic Roadwayclassification of Telegraph Canyon Road otay Lakes Road and EastH Street Proctor Valley Road

Air Ouality Because this site is near the Telegraph CanyonEstates site air quality impacts are expected to be the same asthose resulting from the proposed project

Bioloaical Resources Like the proposed project site this sitehas been heavily impacted by agricultural uses and thus impactswould not be as significant as those on the otay Ranch and otayMesa site However if hydrologic impacts on Salt Creek are

significant biological impacts could also occur

CUltural Resources Environmental review of this site for the

Eastlake vista and Woods project determined that cultural resources

were present It is not known at this time if these sites have

195

fJ 271

been tested for significance or if mitigation is requiredAdditional study of impacts of the proposed project on knowncultural resources would be required to determine if significantimpacts could be fully mitigated

TransDortation Primary access to the project if developed onthis site would probably be via Otay Lakes Road The proposedproject would probably generate fewer ADTs than that assumed forthe Eastlake Vistas and Woods project thus significant impacts maynot occur If this site is selected supplemental traffic studieswould be required to assess the compatibility of the proposedproject with the other uses proposed for this site to determine ifsignificant effects would occur and what type of mitigation isrequired

Noise The project if developed on this site would be exposed tonoise from otay Lakes Road and East H street Proctor Valley RoadIt would probably not be affected by noise from S R 125 Thusnoise impacts would be reduced if this alternative site isselected

Land Use General Plan Zonina The proposed density for the project4 3 dwelling units would be consistent with the land use

designations for the property Because the project has beendesigned to be compatible with the existing development atEastlake its implementation on the Eastlake vistas and Woods siteis not expected to create significant land use impacts

communitv social Factors and Communi tv Tax Structure Impactsassociated with development of the proposed 350 unit project onthis parcel are expected to be similar to developing the project asproposed and no significant impacts would occur

Parks Recreation ODen SDace As with the otay Ranch alternativeopen space would be significantly increased if the project wereimplemented on this parcel and this site could also potentiallyprovide park land for other adjacent development Fewer steepslopes and biological constraints would allow the development oflarger areas of park land on this alternative site

PUblic services and Utilities Impacts associated with provisionof public services and utilities to this site are expected to bethe same as those associated with the proposed projectPublic Health No significant impacts to pUblic health areexpected to occur if this alternative site is chosen

In summary if the Eastlake Vistas and Woods alternative site ischosen impacts are expected to be approximately the same as on theproposed project site for landform alteration aesthetics airquality traffic land use community social factors and taxstructure utilities and public health Impacts related to noise

11 Rancho San Miguel a 2590 acre single family development withcommercial facilities The GDP approval is pending

Environmental documents have been prepared for each of these

projects allowing quantification of some data for comparativepurposes Table 7 1 Other large scale projects such as otayRanch will also add to cumulative impacts in the area if approvedHowever these projects are not included in this analysis becausethe environmental documents have not yet been completed and dataare not available

As shown in Table 7 1 the combined traffic from all these projectsis projected to be 286 373 ADT The proposed Telegraph CanyonEstates project will add an additional 3500 ADT representing 1 2of the total trips All of the projects including the Telegraphcanyon Estates project have been included in the Eastern ChulaVista Transportation Phasing Plan ECVTPP and the environmentalanalyses have concluded that traffic impacts can be mitigated and

acceptable levels of service will be maintained

The projects shown in Table 7 1 will generate an estimated 5 259

elementary school students and 5 729 secondary school studentsThe Telegraph Canyon Estates project will generate 105 students toeach district representing about 2 0 of the total elementaryschool and 1 8 of the total number of secondary school students

The larger projects including Salt Creek Rancho Del Rey Eastlake

III Sunbow Eastlake Greens and Trails and Rancho San Miguelhave included school and park sites in the developments The

remaining projects including the Telegraph Canyon Estates Projectare required to annex into a Community Facilities District CFD to

fully mitigate impacts to the school system

Air quality data are not available for all of the projects in thearea and therefore it is not possible to quantify the cumulativeimpacts The air quality analysis for the Telegraph Canyon Estates

project has concluded that the project is expected to contribute0 009 of the basin wide reactive organic gases 0 025 of carbon

8 0 THE RELATIONSHIP BElWEEN LOCAL SHORT TERM USES OF MAN SENVIRONMENT ANDTHE MAINTENANCE AND ENHANCEMENT OF LONGTERM PRODUCTIVITY

section 15126 e of the State CEQA Guidelines requires anassessment of how a proposed project will affect short term use ofthe environment at the expense of maintenance of long term

productivity as part of the discussion of environmental impacts

The proposed proj ect would convert the vacant parcel to a lowmedium density residential development The proposed placement ofsome areas of the parcel in open space would afford a protectionnot presently in place Conversion of the land to low mediumresidential uses would likely preclude its use for any other

purpose in the foreseeable future The project area is likely toremain residential once converted

The project has been proposed by the applicant at this time becausemarket analyses indicate it would help satisfy a type ofresidential market demand that currently exists and that willcontinue to exist in the future

9 0 IRREVERSIBLE ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGES THAT WILL RESULT FROMTHE PROPOSED PROJECT

sections 15126 f and 15127 of State CEQA Guidelines require thatEIRs address the significant irreversible changes which wouldresult from implementing a proposed project if the project would

require the adoption amendment or enactment of a planpolicy or ordinance of the public agency

require adoption by a Local Agency Formation CommissionLAFCO of a resolution making determinations or

preparation of an Environmental Impact Statement pursuantto the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969

This section is required for the Telegraph Canyon Estates EIRbecause the project requires an annexation and LAFCO approval

The development would eliminate 0 9 acres of wetland habitat butit would preserve a wetland area off site It would cumulativelycontribute to regional air pollution and traffic although these

impacts may be reversible in the future if mass transit facilitiesbecome available to area residents

The existing landform would be altered for the proj ect Land

previously used for agriculture would be converted to residentialuses While it is possible that the land could return to

agricultural uses in the future it is more probable that it wouldremain a low medium residential development in the future

10 0 THE GROWTH INDUCING IMPACT OF THE PROPOSED ACTION

Section 15126 g of State CEQA Guidelines defines growthinducement as ways in which the proposed project could fostereconomic or population growth or the construction of additionalhousing either directly or indirectly in the surroundingenvironment It is considered in two areas onsite on the

proposed project proper and off site in adjacent or neighboringareas Discussions of growth inducing impacts of projects areimportant particularly during the early stages of projectconsideration and approval i e annexations GDPs and SPAsCEQA Guidelines further state that It must not be assumed thatgrowth in any area is necessarily beneficial detrimental or oflittle significance to the environment

Two documents herein incorporated by reference provide guidelinesand goals against which a project s growth inducing effects can memeasured First the County of San Diego s Regional Land UseElement and Land Use Map August 1984 provides goals to manageurban growth so communities may be planned in balance withnecessary facilities Second the City of Chula vista s Growth

Management Program continues the City s efforts to create a

comprehensive system to manage future growth The programimplements the General Plan s Growth Management Element andprovides a foundation for coordinating future growth with the

timely provision of public facilities and services

Onsite the proposed project would place up to 350 residences onland that presently has no residential use As such the proposedproject is growth inducing in that it allows the additionalresidences The number of residences is within the General Plan

designations therefore the proposed project does not encourage orinduce onsite growth beyond that assumed under the General PlanThe project incorporates mitigation measures to ensure that it willprovide its share of costs associated with increased demands for

public services and facilities

Off site the project would not be expected to result in growthinducement This is based on the proposed project s geographicallocation the proposal is an in fill project and is adjacent tothe Otay Ranch

As an in fill project the proposed project is bordered on thenorth and west by residential development Its eastern border isthe proposed State Route 125 with existing development to theeast As such implementation of the proposed project would notrequire the extension or enlargement of Telegraph Canyon Road orof the storm water channel of Telegraph Canyon Creek It would not

require the extension of water or sewer lines It would not

require the extension of transmission lines or gas pipelinesExtension of such facilities can be growth inducing when the

209

ItA 277

proposed project is beyond existing facilities and implementationbrings the supporting facilities to or closer to undevelopedareas As an in fill project the proposed project would not haveto extend such facilities and would not be expected to be growthinducing

The only undeveloped land adjacent to the proposed project is the

otay Ranch to the south The otay Ranch covers several thousandacres A development is currently in planning with the City ofChula vista The magnitude of an otay Ranch Project is such thatit will define and develop its own links to needed supportingstructure including that needed for its water sewer electricitygas and transportation requirements Development of the proposedTelegraph Canyon Estates project would not be expected to have

growth inducement effects either positive or negative on the otayRanch Project

to reduce cumulative air quality impacts are limited and are

largely restricted to methods such as encouraging alternativetransportation car pools use of mass transit bicycling andwalking The project is proposing to include bus stops adjacentto Telegraph Canyon Road to encourage use of bus transportationIn addition the following measures will be required

Construction Phase ImDacts The Telegraph Canyon Estates AirQuality Management Plan will use several methods to mitigate nonresident transportation emissions

1 Fugitive dust generated by project construction will bereduced by the following

a Scheduling grading during the early spring when naturalsoil moisture is high or by importing non potable waterfor watering during grading

b Establishing an off site dust control program to keepdirt from being washed or tracked onto adjacent roadwaysperimeter erosion control truck tarping or load

watering and daily street sweeping or washing at access

points mitigated by standard dust control practicesincluding watering the site with reclaimed or freshwater prior to project grading It is estimated thatthe quantity of dust emissions will be reduced to

approximately 300 tons from 650 tons The project willstill contribute to cumulative fugitive dust generated byother area construction projects but no additionalconstruction phase mitigation will be required

c After clearing a grass cover will be grown and soilbinders will be spread

2 Off site traffic interference from construction personnel tobe reduced by providing rideshare incentives restricting laneclosures to off peak travel periods and scheduling truckaccess such that 80 percent of daily receipt of constructionmaterials will be limited to between 9 00 a m and 3 00 p m

3 Construction activities will be phased and scheduled to avoidhigh ozone days

Pro ect Phase ImDacts Because the project will not createlocalized air quality impacts no mitigation measures are requiredAs discussed above the methods for reducing the project s

contribution to cumulative air pollution are limited because the

project is residential Residents can be advised of car poolfacilities or mass transit routes but there is no method to ensurethat these options would be exercised The AQMP requires that the

project is constructed using energy conservation materials whichexceed Title 24 energy budget requirements by 10 percent of

215

Homeowners Residents The project s residents will be responsiblefor choosing their mode of transportation driving habits and

lifestyles Mode choice will be primarily influenced by tripdestination rather than trip origin

Government and Service Aqencies All project plans will bereviewed by City Staff to ensure compliance with the updated AirQuality Plan Prior to approval of the tentative map projectplans will be reviewed by City Staff to insure that the requiredmeasures can be accommodated by the project s design

Transportation control measures TCMs and development andtransportation improvement phasing are controlled by the City s

Growth Management Plan The potential impacts associated withtraffic congestion on roadways affected by the project will beassessed Any mitigation measures delineated in the TransportationPhasing Plan shall be implemented prior to issuance of occupancypermits per the Public Facilities Financing Plan PFFP

The APCD is responsible for updating the regional Air QualityPlan Because the APCD is prohibited by state law from intrudingon the land use authority of the City of Chula Vista it will bethe City s responsibility to implement the plan s guidelines whenit is approved

11 5 Biological Resources

Preservation of the area of freshwater marsh on site is notfeasible Therefore the following mitigation measures arerequired

1 The area to be lost will be replaced by the preservation ofwetland habitat off site at a one to one ratio in compliancewith Department of Fish and Game requirements

2 The off site mitigation area will be in association with alarger marsh or riparian area to encourage the establishmentof habitat of meaningful size to wildlife Because thewetland area on site is less than one acre in size it fallsunder the national permitting requirements of the Army Corpsof Engineers

3 The Applicant shall preserve the long term conservation ofwetland areas off site by dedicating 0 9 acres to the City aspart of a natural open space easement The City shall placean open space easement in this acreage which would eliminatefuture building activity and which would set 0 9 acres asidefor the preservation of wetlands off site

4 The Applicant is presently involved in the planning of theadjacent 23 000 acre Otay Ranch Project The Applicant hasagreed to place an Open Space Easement on a minimum of 0 9acres of wetland in association with a larger marsh or

riparian area in the Otay Ranch Project to mitigate thebiological impacts associated with this project to below alevel of significance

5 Monitoring of the mitigation will be done by review andapproval by the City of Chula Vista Planning Department forthe granting of the Open Space Easement Prior to recordingof the Final Map the open space easement shall be dedicatedand recorded This will be ensured through the MitigationMonitoring and Reporting program listed below

11 6 Cultural Resources

No significant impacts to cultural resources are expectedtherefore no mitigation measures or monitoring plan is required

11 7 Transportation

No significant direct traffic impacts would result fromimplementation of the project as proposed However as the projectwould contribute to cumulative traffic the following mitigationmeasures are required

1 Cumulative impacts to area roadways will be mitigated by the

project s contribution of funds toward roadway improvementscalled out in the ECVTPP The specific improvements requiredfor the proposed project such as possible roadway wideningrestriping or installation of signals will be determined bythe City of Chula vista s Engineering Department upon reviewof the cumulative impacts of the projects in the area

2 All improvements will be funded on a fair share basis amongproj ects The proj ect s fair share contribution toward

217

mitigating direct and cumulative impacts will be made a

condition of the TSM

11 8 Noise

Temcorarv Imcacts Because noise levels associated withconstruction of the project are considered a temporary nuisancerather than an impact no mitigation and monitoring is requiredConstruction will be limited to the hours of 7 a m to 10 p m on

Monday through Friday 7 a m to 8 p m Saturdays and Sundays and

prohibited on Federal holidays to minimize these temporary effects

Lonq Term Imcacts No significant noise impacts to surroundingareas are anticipated with implementation of the Telegraph CanyonEstates project therefore no mitigation and monitoring isrequired

The following measures have been incorporated into the projectdesign to mitigate noise impacts to the project

1 Noise levels generated by traffic on future S R 125 will bereduced by constructing noise barriers along the rear propertylines of those lots proposed within the 65 dBA contourConstruction of 5 5 foot high gap free slumpstone or masonrysound walls or barriers will reduce exterior noise levelsbetween 4 and 6 dBA in the rear yards of these homes belowthe 65 dBA threshold

All noise walls will be constructed in conformance with thedesign guidelines set forth in the SPA which follow theEastlake I Design Guidelines Materials will consist ofstucco or stone walls with plexiglass panels to provide noisereduction while maintaining views from residences

2 Typically standard construction practices for Californialight frame structures will decrease interior noise levels by15 20 dBA Thus it is anticipated that interior noise levelsof the homes on the eastern border of the site will fallwithin the 45 dBA limit required However at the time thenoise report was prepared the potential for noise impacts tothe second floors of the proposed homes which will be abovethe noise barrier was not evaluated Inclusion of noisereducing building materials such as extra insulation doublepaned glass or mechanical ventilation may be required tomitigate noise impacts for these homes No second storybalconies shall face S R 125

is If potable water will be required until reclaimed waterbecomes available projected in mid 1992 all water linesshall be planned to avoid future cross connections All waterline connections have been detailed on the TSM and will beinspected and monitored during project construction by the

City s Engineering department

Sewer Service Monitoring of the project development willdetermine whether or not mitigation is required If the TelegraphCanyon Estates project is developed while there is available

existing sewer capacity there will be no adverse impacts and no

mitigation or further monitoring is required

However if monitoring determines inadequate sewer capacity withinthe larger drainage basin then mitigation will be required andwill consist of

1 The developer shall be required to construct project specificsewage system improvements

2 The developer shall also be required to contribute toward thecosts of any monitoring and to construct or contributetowards the costs of constructing any required trunk sewer

improvements in proportion to the development s flow with

respect to the cumulative waste water flows generated by new

development within the Telegraph Canyon basin

utilities Mitigation of utilities impacts will be ensured

through the MMRP by requiring the project s contribution in the

City s Development fee

1114 Public Health

No significant impacts have been identified thus no mitigationmeasures will be required However the following mitigationmeasure is recommended to reduce the potential to EMF exposure

1 The project applicant shall comply with any future policyadopted by the City of Chula vista prior to consideration ofthe Final Map

Executive Summarv

OVERVIEW

This Public Facilities Finance Plan PFFP has been prthe Ci of Chula Vista s Grow ana em tion o

e prepara on 0 the PFFP is required in conjunction with the preparation of theSectional Planning Area Plan SPA to ensure that the phased development of the projectis consistent with th lvp l1 gn l iplOnf thl rty General Plan Growth

Management Program and to ensure that the development of the project will not adverselyimpact the Quality of Life Standards

The PFPP is based upon the requested developer phasing as presented in the SPA The

BaldwinlTelegraph Canyon Road project is proposed to be developed in one phase ThePFFP begins by analyzing the existing demand for facilities based upon the demand from

existing development and those projects with approved final and tentative maps Projectswhich currently have a final or tentative map are deemed to have committed facilitycapacity and are the approved projects Then the PFFP uses the proposed developerphasing of the BaldwinTelegraph Canyon Road project as shown in the Sectional PlanningArea Plan SPA to determine the impacts associated with each phase of the project

Phasing of the future development of this project is done to predict when additional or

upgraded facilities will be needed to meet or maintain compliance with the City s QualityofLife Standards When specific thresholds are projected tobe reached or exceeded based

upon the analysis of the phased development of the Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road

project the PFFP provides recommended mitigation necessary for the continued compliancewith the Growth Management Program and Quality ofLife Standards

Since the plan is a regulatory document each facility section contains recommendedconditions to ensure that compliance will be maintained with the City s overall GrowthManagement Program This Executive Summary includes a list of recommended Generaland Special Conditions for the Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road project

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

FISCAL

Section 4 0 of this Public Facilities Financing Plan contains an analysis of the

fiscal impacts the development of BaldwinTelegraph Canyon Road will haveon the operation and maintenance budgets of the City of Chula Vista the OtayWater District the Chula Vista City School District and the Sweetwater Union

High School District

The results of the analysis are contained in Section 4 0 and will be included in

the next annual fiscal and economic report prepared for the City s Growth

Management Oversight Commission

CIVIC CENTER

Civic Center facilities will be funded through the collection of the PublicFacilities Fees at the rate in effect at the time building permits are issued

CORPORAnON YARD

Corporation yard facilities will be funded through the collection of Public

Facility Fees at the rate in effect at the time building permits are issued

FISCAL ANALYSIS

This analysis demonstrates the fiscal impact that development in BaldwinTele

graph Canyon Road will have on the operation and maintenance budgets of the

City of Chula Vista the Otay Water District the Chula Vista ElementarySchool District and the Sweetwater Union High School District The analysiscovers a period of fifteen years four of which depict the development phase of

the project and eleven years which depict the impact of the completed project

The net fiscal impact of BaldwinTelegraph Canyon Road on the City of Chula

Vista during its first fifteen years indicates that revenues areprojected toexceed

expenditures in every year of the impact The annual net balances range from

71 918 in year four to a low of 20 345 in year one The total accumulated

net fiscal balance of the fifteen year period covered by the analysis is 827 043

Order of magnitude operation and maintenance fiscal impacts of BaldwinTele

graph Canyon Road on the Otay Water District results in a net fiscal loss of

about 676 annually at the buildout stage of the project However since this

represents only about 04 percent of the revenues and cost resulting from the

development it is reasonable to expect that virtually no net impact will be

experienced This is also consistent with comments made by Otay Water

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

District staff who insisted that rates would be adjusted as needed to balancerevenues and operation and maintenance expenditures

Also required by Growth Management Ordinance No 2448 operation andmaintenance impacts on the Chula Vista Elementary School District were

projected based on the number of students generated by development ofBaldwinlTelegraph Canyon Road The rate for revenues and expenditures perstudent multiplied by the number of elementary school children in BaldwinTelegraph Canyon Road at buildout results in an annual net fiscal loss of about

5 000 However this amount corresponds to only 15 percent of totalrevenues of 341 841 The district has commented that while any loss is causefor concern the assumptions and parameters used in the analysis are such thata minor change in anyone assumption could change the net fiscal loss into afiscal gain

The impacts of BaldwinlTelegraph Canyon Road on the operation andmaintenance budget of the Sweetwater Union High School District were alsoproject based on the projected number of high school students The rate forrevenues and expenditures per student multiplied by the number of high schoolstudents in BaldwinlTelegraph Canyon Road at buildout results in an annual netfiscal gain of about 2 960 However this amount corresponds to only 0 72

percent of total revenues of 412 099

INTRODUCTION

10 INTRODUCTION

11 Overview

The City of Chula Vista has looked comprehensively at issues dealing with

development and the additional impacts it places on public facilities and

services The approval of the Threshold Ordinance and the General Plan

update were the first steps in the overall process of addressing growth relatedissues The second step in this process was the development and adoption of

a specific Growth Management Element which set the stage for the creation of

the City s Growth Management Program

The adoption of Growth Management Program and Implementing OrdinanceNo 2448 formalized on May 28 1991 a comprehensive system to manage

future growth These documents execute the Growth Management Element of

the General Plan and establish a foundation for carrying out the developmentpolicies of the City by directing and coordinating future growth in order to

guarantee the timely provision of public facilities and services

The Growth Management Ordinance requires a Public Facilities Finance Plan

PFFP to be prepared concurrently with a Sectional Planning Area SPA Plan

The contents of the PFFP are governed by Section 19 09 060 of the Growth

Management Ordinance which requires that the plan show how and when the

public facilities and services as identified in the Growth Management Programwill be installed or financed

12 Purpose

The purpose of the Public Facilities Finance Plan is to implement the City s

Growth Management Program and to meet the General Plan goals and objectives as well as the Growth Management Element goals and objectives The

Chula Vista Growth Management Program implements the City s General Plan

and Zoning Ordinance by ensuring that development occurs only when

necessary public facilities and services exist or are provided concurrent with the

demands of new development

Central to the Growth Management Program is the requirement that a Public

Facilities Finance Plan PFFP be prepared for future development projectsrequiring either a Sectional Planning Area Plan SPA or a tentative map

13 Threshold Standards

City Council Resolution No 13346 approved eleven public facilities and

services with related threshold standards and implementation measures which

were listed in a policy statement dated November 17 1987 and have subse

quently been refined based on recommendations from the Growth ManagementOversight Commission GMOC

The eleven are

Threshold standards are used to identify when new or upgraded public facilities

are needed to mitigate the impacts of new development Developmentapprovals will not be made unless compliance with these standards can be met

These threshold standards have been prepared to guarantee that public facilities

or infrastructure improvements will keep pace with the demands of growth

INTRODUCTION

14 The Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road Project

The Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road is approximately 1124 acres and is

proposed to be developed in one phase In total 342 residential dwelling unitsare proposed to be constructed along with 24 acres of private recreationalfacilities

15 Public Facilities Finance Plan Boundaries

Section 19 12 070 of the Growth Management Implementation Ordinance

requires that the boundaries of the PFFP shall be established by the City at thetime a SPA Plan or Tentative Map is submitted by the applicant The

boundaries shall be based upon the impact created by the Project on existingand future need for facilities The project boundaries will correlate the

proposed development project with existing and future development proposedfor the area of impact to provide for the economically efficient and timelyinstallation of both onsite and offsite facilities and improvements required bythe development In establishing the boundaries for the PFFP the City shallbe guided by the following considerations

1 Service areas drainage sewer basins and pressure zones which serve the

Project

2 Extent to which facilities or improvements are in place or available

3 Ownership of property

4 Project impact on public facilities relationships especially the impact on

the City s planned major circulation network

5 Special district service territories

6 Approved fire drainage sewer or other facilities or improvementmaster plans

The boundaries of the PFFP for the Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road projectare congruent with the Sectional Planning Area SPA Plan boundaries

2 1 PURPOSE

The purpose of this section of the PFFP is to quantify how the BaldwinlTelegraph

Canyon Road project will be analyzed in relationship with all other projects which

are at some stage in the City s overall development process The Growth Manage

ment Program addressed the issue of development phasing in relationship to location

timing and fiscal economic considerations

Based upon the overall elements to be considered when projecting the phasing of

development and policies contained in the Growth Management Program the Citywas able to forecast where and when development will take place and produced a 5

to 7 year Development Phasing Forecast Since the approval of the Growth

Management Program the development phasing forecast has been updated and will

be updated annually as facility improvements are made and the capacity for new

development becomes available

The specific factors which effect the development phasing forecast include the Otay

Municipal Water District Allocation Program the future construction of State Route

125 the status of development approvals and binding development agreementsThese components were reviewed as part of this PFFP in conjunction with the

requirement to provide facilities and services concurrent with the demand created byBaldwin Telegraph Canyon Road project to maintain compliance with the threshold

standards

The management of future growth includes increased coordination of activities of the

various City departments as well as with both School and Water Districtswhich serve

the City of Chula Vista The development phasing forecast enables the City to

prioritize and maximize limited staff resources in order to focus efforts on the highest

priority projects in the forecast The development phasing forecast 5 to 7 years is

a method which will be used to effectively and efficiently manage future develop

ment

As indicated in the Growth Management Program accuracy of the forecast is

dependent upon numerous outside influences which affect the overall demand for new

development The first 12 to 18 months of the forecast will be more accurate and

subsequent years less accurate due to lower levels of development approval and

corresponding agreements to provide public facilities These later years are subject

to change and will become more accurate as development entitlements are solidified

and public facilities are guaranteed

LAND USE ASSUMPIIONS

The PFFP for Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road will begin analyzing the existingdemand for facilities based upon the demand from existing development and those

projects with approved final and tentative maps Projects which currently have a

final or tentative map have committed facility capacity and are the approvedprojects Then the PFFP will use the proposed phasing of the BaldwinTelegraph

Canyon Road project as shown in the Sectional Planning Area Plan SPA to

determine the impacts associated with each phase of the project

2 2 Existing Development

As a starting point the PFFP will consider all existing development up to June 301991 as the base condition This information is based upon City of Chula Vista

Planning Department Annual Residential Development Forecast This reportquantified the population of the City as of June 30 1991 to be 139 150 The

population west of Interstate 805 was identified to be 100 042 and east of Interstate

805 to be 39 108

For the purposes of projecting future facility demands per dwelling unit the State

Department of Finance April 1990 population coefficient of 2 693 persons per

equivalent dwelling unit will be used throughout this Public Facilities Finance Plan

to calculate facility demands from approved projects This coefficient has been

confirmed for use in the PFFP by the Planning Department

For the purposes of calculating the specific Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road projectfacility demands the following April 1990 State Department population coefficients

will be used

1 Single Family Detached 3 24 personsldu

2 3 Approved Projects

The total number of Approved Projects on June 30 1991 was 8 723 dwellingunits Additionally there are 280 6 acres of industrial and 69 5 acres of commercial

land in the Approved Projects category The approved projects are considered to

have committed facility capacity

3 2 1 Service Analysis

The City of Chula Vista through the Public Works Department is responsiblefor ensuring that traffic improvements are provided to maintain a safe and

efficient street system within the City Through project review City staffensures the timely provision of adequate local circulation system capacity in

response to planned development while maintaining acceptable levels ofservicePlanned new roadway segments and signalized intersections will maintain

acceptable standards at the buildout of the City s general plan and circulationelement

The traffic threshold standard will be analyzed by the following

1 LOS measures shall be for the average weekday peak hour

excluding seasonal and special circumstance variations

2 The measurement of LOS shall be by the 1985 Highway CapacityManual HCM method of calculation using the City s publishedcirculation element design standards1

3 Intersection of City arterials with freeway ramps shall be excluded

from this policy

4 Circulation improvements shall be implemented prior to anticipateddeterioration of LOS below established standards

The Circulation Element of the General Plan serves as the overall facilitymaster plan Additionally the Eastern Chula Vista Transportation PhasingPlan ECVJPP provides additional information relevant to the phasing of

development and necessary improvements required in the area east of Interstate

805

The traffic plan for BaldwinTelegraph Canyon Road was prepared for the

General Development Plan by Urban Systems Associates Inc USA dated

June 24 1991 Willdan Associates prepared the Traffic Review of the Baldwin

3 2 5 Trip Generation

The traffic volumes which will result from the proposed project are estimated

using accepted trip generation rates and peak hour factors which are based on

categories of land uses These rates have been developed by various agenciesand are summarized by SANDAG in their Traffic Generators manual

Theproposed project will generate approximately 3 500 average daily trips with

280 trips splitting 56 inbound and 224 outbound during the AM peak hour

and 350 trips splitting 245 inbound and 105 outbound during the PM peakhour This was based on SANDAG s Trip Generation Manual

3 2 6 Trip Distribution and Assignment

Project traffic was manually distributed and assigned to the surrounding street

network Figure 4A shows the distribution percentages and the resulting ADT

for the road segments Figures 4B and 4C show the distribution and assignment for the AM peak hour and PM peak hour respectively The distribution

percentages were based on freeway access location of shopping centers

location of schools and location of surrounding community attractions Eightypercent of the trips are assigned to Telegraph Canyon Road via the main access

Ten percent are assigned to Rutgers Avenue via Gotham Street The other ten

percent are assigned to Lakeshore Drive via Creekwood Way

Willdan Associates prepared a select zone assignment of traffic analysis zone

TAZ No 332 which contained the 350 dwelling units proposed by the

Telegraph Canyon Road project The select zone analysis assigns all traffic to

and from the project to the surrounding street network and reflects a projectonly assignment The results indicate that approximately 80 percent of projecttraffic will utilize Telegraph Canyon Road splitting 60 percent westbound and

20 percent eastbound However rather than all the project related traffic

utilizing Telegraph Canyon Road to access Interstate 805 the model is showingthe majority of the traffic utilizing Otay Lakes Road north to East W Street

for westbound destinations toward Interstate 805

Traffic will split evenly along East W Street and Telegraph Canyon Road

Therefore the 80 percent of project traffic assigned to the west should be split40 percent along Telegraph Canyon Road and 40 percent along East H Street

to represent anticipated conditions

3 2 8 Adequacy Analysis

The adequacy of traffic is based upon a study by Urban Systems AssociatesInc dated December 19 1991 which was reviewed by Willdan AssociatesJanuary 13 1992 and the City Traffic Engineering Section January 301992 The results of the study recommend that a signal be provided at themain project access and Telegraph Canyon Road The USA study was revisedMarch 27 1992

The traffic study also indicates that the circulation system expected to be in

place at the time the project is constructed will be able to accommodate thetraffic generated by the project However the study notes that there are other

proposed land development projects in the eastern territories that are not in theEastern Chula Vista Transportation Phasing Plan ECVTPP but that will be

competing for limited road capacity available prior to construction of StateRoute 125 The capacity of the circulation system is not capable of accommo

dating all the trips generated by projects other than those identified in theECVTPP prior to improvements in the State Route 125 corridor At this timeit is not possible to determine which development will receive capacityallocation The interim State Route 125 study by HNTB will provide staff andCouncil with necessary information to assist in determining project approvals

3 3 4 Adequacy Analysis

Based upon the latest report by the GMOC the threshold for police serviceswas met for both Priority 1 and Priority 2 calls during 1990 The threshold for

Priority 1 emergency calls requires that 84 of these calls be responded towithin seven minutes and that an average response time to all Priority 1 caBsof 4 5 minutes or less be maintained The actual performance for 1990indicated that 87 6 of all Priority 1 calls were responded to within seven

minutes and that the average response time for all priority calls was 4 13minutes This indicates that the threshold standard for Priority 1 calls was met

during 1990

With regard to Priority 2 calls urgent calls the threshold standard requires that62 of all Priority 2 calls be responded to within 7 minutes and that an

average response time to all Priority 2 calls of 7 minutes or less be maintainedThe actual performance for 1990 was that 68 of aU Priority 2 calls were

responded to within 7 minutes and the average response time was 6 25 minutes

Again the data indicated that the threshold for Priority 2 Police services was

met

The Police Department indicated to the GMOC that based upon the proposeddevelopment phasing schedule that it did not have any specific concerns withits ability to continue to meet the standard in 1991

3 3 5 Financing Police Facilities

In January 1991 the Chula Vista City Council adopted Ordinance No 2320

establishing a Development Impact Fee to pay for various public facilitieswithin the City of Chula Vista The facilities are required to support futuredevelopment within the City and the fee schedule has been adopted inaccordance with Government Code Section 66000 The current fee is 2 150

per equivalent dwelling unit

The Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road project is within the boundaries of the

public facilities DIF program and therefore the project will be subject to the

payment of the fee at the rate in effect at the time building permits are issued

At the current fee rate the Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road obligation at

buildout is 131 380

3 4 4 Adequacy Analysis

The City of Chula Vista Fire Department has jurisdiction over most of theproject area The closest station to the project site at this time is located on

Otay Lakes Road south of East H Street Although portions of the site are

currently within the County s Rural Fire Protection District project approvaland future annexation to the City of Chula Vista would remove this propertyfrom the Rural Fire Protection District jurisdiction At that time all serviceresponsibility would then be assumed by the City This transfer of responsibility would occur concurrent with the annexation process

The City ofChula Vista s Fire Station Master Plan dated February 1989 andrevised July 10 1989 identified an optimal fire station network to serve theeastern territories The Master Plan does not indicate a need for a fire stationsite within the Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road development The master plandoes stipulate the need for a fire station site within the boundaries of theproposed Salt Creek Ranch project which would be used to serve the fire

protection needs of this project The optimal fire station network mayhowever change based upon plans for the Otay Ranch Project As such the

City plans to reexamine its fire station needs and locations in the near future

During the initial phases of development within the Baldwin Telegraph CanyonRoad fire coverage shall be provided to the project site by an interim firestation to be located within the EastLake I Business Park This interim stationis scheduled to become operational in July 1992 It is anticipated that a

decision concerning the optimal permanent location for the City s sixth firestation will be made no later than 1996 The interim fire station shall remainoperational until a permanent fire station is constructed

34 5 Financing Fire Service Facilities

In January 1991 the Chula Vista City Council adopted Ordinance No 2320

establishing a Development Impact Fee to pay for various public facilitieswithin the City of Chula Vista The facilities are required to support future

development within the City and the fee schedule has been adopted inaccordance with Government Code Section 66000

The Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road project is within the boundaries of the

public facilities DIF program and therefore the project will be subject to the

payment of the fee at the rate in effect at the time building permits are issuedAt the current fee rate the Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road obligation at

buildout is 40 319

School facilities and services in Chula Vista are provided by two school

districts The Chula Vista Elementary School District administers education for

kindergarten through sixth grades The Sweetwater Union High School District

administers education for the Junior and Senior High Schools of a large district

which includes the City of Chula Vista The purpose of the threshold standard

is to ensure that the districts have the necessary school sites and funds to meet

the needs of students in newly developed areas in a timely manner and to

prevent the negative impacts of overcrowding on the existing schools Through

the provision of development forecasts school district personnel can plan and

implement school facility construction and program allocation in line with

development

There are no existing elementary school facilities to serve the projected 102students The Baldwin Company and school representatives are attempting to

resolve this situation

EastLake High School scheduled for opening in the fall of 1992 will accept all

high school students from the Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road project

The Sweetwater School District maintains a 29 1 studentteacher ratio for most

classes Therefore the project will require approximately 3 4 new classroomsto fully house the new students

The Bonita Vista Junior High School is currently over capacity by approximately 200 students according to the 1990 report of the Growth ManagementOversight Commission To alleviate this overcrowding the Sweetwater Union

High School District is considering making boundary adjustments in theattendance areas for the school By the fall of 1997 the Rancho del Rey Junior

High is scheduled for completion and at a later date contingent on development absorption the Junior Middle School in EastLake Trails will open

3 5 5 Financing School Facilities

In comments to the City regarding this project the Chula Vista ElementarySchool District staff has stated the problems associated with serving this

project given its location in a newly developing area near two schools

EastLake Elementary and future school in EastLake Greens the first of which

is currently at capacity and the second which is expected to be at or near

capacity by the time it is built In planning for this area it was not envisioned

that an additional 102 children adjacent to the EastLake Community would have

to be housed separate from those children expected from the Otay Ranch

Annexation to the Elementary District s generic community Facilities District

CFD no 5 does not appear to be appropriate for this project as CFD No5 was designed for smaller projects where the impact would be far less on a

particular school This project is not large enough to make formation of a new

CFD feasible There will be an immediate impact on elementary facilities and

funds to provide necessary facilities must be available far earlier than would be

the case through conventional CFD financing Area schools are full One

option would be to obtain full reimbursement up front and utilize the funds

to purchase relocatable classrooms to house these students at a nearby school

Another would be to form a new CFD for the Otay Ranch However

development of Otay Ranch is some time away and the same problem with

having funds to provide facilities at the time of need would exist with this

option as with the first

The Elementary District has met and is continuing to meet with representativesfrom the Baldwin Company and the District s financial consultant toattempt to

resolve these issues The applicant has indicated willingness to pursue either

of the above options The unanticipated development of the Telegraph Canyonproject separate from the Otay Ranch and the lack of facilities to serve this

project require consideration offull reimbursement financing mechanisms which

would allow the District to obtain funds up front so that elementary facilities

are available at the time of need

California Government Code section 65995 and Education Code Section 53080

both authorize districts with the means to impose facility mitigation exactions

on new development as a way to address increasing enrollment caused by that

development Presently there are no statutes which allow the District to

recover increased operations costs resulting from new development Althoughthe collection of school fees is one method available to defray the cost of new

development it is not an acceptable solution to the district inasmuch as the

District s 56 percent of the maximum amount which could be collected by law

represents less than one fourth the cost to construct schools When a projectsuch as the Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road Proposed Project requireslegislative action the District has the authority to require mitigation above and

beyond the 158 per square foot authorized in state law providing that the

financing mechanism bears a reasonable relationship to the needs caused by the

development

For this reason it has been the District s policy to fully mitigate the facilityimpacts caused by a master planned community via the creation of a Mello

Roos District prior to the approval and recordation of a final map for the

project

3 6 4 Adequacy Analysis

Using the square footage threshold standard of 500 square feet of library per

1 000 population the libraries conceptualized in the Chula Vista Master Plan

of Libraries are adequate The existing demand based on a July I 1991

population of 139 150 is 69 575 square feet With the 35 000 square foot

library schedule for the Montgomery Otay area and the existing 55 000 squarefeet of permanent library space the library facilities will total 90 000 squarefeet which is a 20425 square foot surplus for the present population demand

The demand generated by the 8 723 approved dwelling units remaining as of

July I 1991 is 11 746 square feet based on a population factor of 2 693 State

Department of Finance April 1990 persons per dwelling unit The existingplus approved demand for library space totals 81 321 square feet Comparingthe existing and scheduled library square footage of 90 000 square feet there

is a surplus of 8 679 square feet

Water is provided to the City of Chula Vista through the San Diego CountyWater Authority Sweetwater Authority and the Otay Municipal Water DistrictThe City ofChula Vista is working with each of these special districts toensure

that new growth will not reduce the availability of adequate water supplies or

jeopardize the water quality standards within the City Each of these districts

is responsible for providing capital facilities necessary to accommodate future

growth as well as providing services to existing development within the Cityof Chula Vista The existing and proposed facilities to serve the communitythrough the water districts are listed on Figures 11 and 12

Otav Municipal Water District Allocation Proram

The Otay Municipal Water District has been experiencing a water storageproblem for some time As a result the district developed and is implementinga water allocation system The Dtay Water District Report on Allocation ofWater Requests Based on Water Availability was adopted by the Board of

Directors on April 19 1989 as Resolution No 2742 Because of the limited

water supply and storage for unlimited amounts ofconstruction the allocation

system allots 1 900 Equivalent Dwelling Units EDUs of water service per

year for the service area In the City of Chula Vista this limit equates to

approximately 700 to 1 000 units per year This system will remain in effect

until supply and terminal storage conditions improve at which time the yearlyallotment of connections will be raised or the allocation program will be

eliminated These improvements are anticipated to be completed in 1993

The Otay Water District water allocation program addresses actions taken bythe District and land developers to allow issuance of water service connections

within the District until the County Water Authority CWA completesconstruction of the new Pipeline No 4 The issuance of water services is

subject to the District s present limited water storage and water supply These

actions include the approval of guidelines which 1 categorize various water

requests and 2 determine if a water service request qualifies for immediate

connection or future connection by a land development being allocated water

service to a proportion of the anticipated Equivalent Dwelling Units EDUs

requests The following categories are used in determining the association of

water service in the District

Category I Water service requests that qualify for immediate water

connection with issuance of an approved building permit

Cateeory II Water service requests that qualify for water service connection

contingent upon completion of conditions of an agreement with the District

entered into prior to adoption of the allocation program

Catelory III Land development water service requests that are allocated

water service dependent on contribution to construction ofmajor water facilities

including but not limited to terminal water reservoirs major water transmis

sion mains pump stations etc that directly or indirectly support water

service

Based on anticipated terminal reservoir construction development will onlyreceive a proportionate share of water service requests as determined by the

Allocation Formula applied to the total requests that qualify in a given yearwithin the annual limit of 1 900 EDUs The proportionate share will be

determined from an allocation process in which a specific request is considered

in a quarterly allocation of total requests

Water services allocated to major developments of a master planned communitywill be determined for a future quarter as a part of an agreement with the

District for construction of required terminal reservoir storage and other majorwater facilities

Otav Triad Alreement

This agreement is between the Otay Water District EastLake DevelopmentCompany Rancho Del Rey Partnership and Rancho Del Sur Partnership In

essence the Otay Triad Agreement allows EastLake Rancho Del Rey and

Rancho Del Sur to request more EDUs per quarter per development for singlefamily connections than would otherwise be possible Without the Otay Triad

Agreement these developers would not be able to request more than 200 EDUs

per quarter per development for single family connections In exchange the

developers have approved bond financing of terminal storage faculties in lieu

of paying Otay a Reservoir Storage Fee This enables Otay to construct the

necessary terminal storage reservoirs at an earlier date than would have been

possible by simply collecting fees

The atay Municipal Water District s allocation program will impact or limit

development in the City of Chula Vista to between 700 and 1 000 units per

year until additional storage facilities are provided It is projected these

facilities will not be available until 1993

Water Conservation Plan

A Water Conservation Plan is required for all major development projects 50

dwelling units or greater or commercial and industrial projects with 50 EDU s

of water demand or greater This plan is required at the Sectional PlanningArea SPA Plan level or equivalent for projects which are not processedthrough a Planned Community Zone

The water conservation plan shall provide an analysis of water usage requirements of the proposed project as well as a detailed plan of proposed measures

for water conservation use of reclaimed water and other means of reducingper capita water consumption from the proposed project as well as defining a

program to monitor compliance This plan shall be reviewed by the Resource

Conservation Commission and Planning Commission prior to final review and

adoption by the City Council The Water Conservation Plan will not be

prepared as part of the Public Facilities Financing Plan

Baldwin Teletraoh Canvon Road Water Demand

The Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road project is located within the atay Water

District and therefore water service for the project will be provided by the

atay Water District Because of the range of elevation throughout the projectthe Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road development will be served by two water

service zones Approximately 255 single family residences and the park will

be served by the 710 Zone Approximately 95 residential units are above the

upper service boundary of the 710 Zone and will require service from the 980

Zone

The estimated average demand in the 710 Zone is 138 400 gpd and the

estimated average demand for the 980 Zone is 52 032 gpd The total average

demand projected for Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road is 190 432 gpd This

amount excludes demands that will be satisfied by reclaimed water

Current district policy also requires ten average days of total storage capacitybe provided for emergency storage to meet aqueduct shutdown conditions The

total volume required for Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road is approximately 2 0

Development

Reclaimed Water

Reclaimed water service for the project will initially be provided by the OtayWater District Areas on the project proposed to be irrigated with reclaimed

water range in elevation from approximately 480 feet to 560 feet

For the Telegraph Canyon project reclaimed water may be utilized to irrigatethe San Diego County Water Authority Aqueduct easement the parks and the

open space scenic buffer area along Telegraph Canyon Road The averagereclaimed water use factor for the irrigated areas is 3 570 gpdacre

Reclaimed water distribution lines were sized to handle peak hour flow while

maintaining a velocity of less than eight feet per second

The slope and frontage along Telegraph Canyon Road is required by the Cityof Chula Vista to be open space for drainage purposes also included as a

potential reclaimed water use site is the small valley area and private park area

in the southern middle section of the property The San Diego County Water

Authority SDCWA easement will most likely be 120 feet wide

Reclaimed Water Facilities

The Otay Water District has nine reclaimed water storage ponds on itsReclamation Property These ponds are filled with secondary effluent pumpedfrom the Otay Water District s Jamacha Wastewater Reclamation FacilityFrom these ponds at the 980 foot elevation a 20 inch reclaimed water linetravels south and ties into Lane Avenue The 20inch reclaimed water line was

built by the EastLake Development Company to deliver irrigation water to its

This section discusses the recommended potable water facilities needed toserve

the Telegraph Canyon project Figure 12 presents the proposed water facilities

for both water pressure zones the boundary line separating the 980 Zone and710 Zone service areas is also indicated

As discussed previously water service from the atay Water District s 710 Zone

and the 980 Zone will be required to serve the Telegraph Canyon projectEach service zone has its own requirements for water facilities which will be

discussed separately

710 Zone

The 710 Zone services pad elevations up to 560 feet As indicated on Figure12 the majority of the project approximately 75 percent will be providedwater service from the 710 Zone Based on the proposed site plan for the

project approximately 255 units and the parks will be located in the 710 Zone

service area The required fire flow for this area is 1 500 gpm

The proposed 710 Zone water distribution facilities consist of 8 and lO inch

pipelines necessary to provide adequate domestic services and fire protectionto the Telegraph Canyon project

The proposed system will require a lO inch connection to the existing 710

Zone 16inch line in Telegraph Canyon Road A second 8 inch connection isrecommended to connect to the existing 12 inch line in the northwest comer to

provide a secondary source As shown an 8 inch loop of unknown configuration will be necessary throughout the 710 Zone service area

As an alternative to the lO inch connection to the 16inch line in atay LakesRoad two 8 inch connections would also provide adequate service

710 Zone Purnn Station and Storale

There is a new 710 Zone Pump station currently under construction at the

Patzig Reservoir to expand the existing Central Area Pump Station to 12 000

gpm The estimated operational and fire flow storage required for the 710

Zone on the Telegraph Canyon project is 430 000 gallons There is not

sufficient elevation for a 710 Zone reservoir onsite therefore offsite storage

will be required in an existing or new 710 Zone reservoir

980 Zone

The 980 Zone services elevations from 560 feet up to840 feet Approximately25 percent of the developable land will be provided water service from the 980

Zone Based on the proposed site plan 95 units will be located in the 980

Zone service area The required fire flow for these units is 1 000 gpm

The recommended 980 Zone water distribution facilities consist of 8 inch

pipelines necessary to provide adequate domestic service and fire protection to

the two 980 Zone service areas on the Telegraph Canyon project

The proposed system consists of one 8 inch connection to the existing 980

Zone 24 inch line located in the northwest corner of the project From this

8 inch connection the project will most likely require two 8 inch lines to serve

both the northern and western 980 Zone service areas

980 Zone Purnn Station and Storale

The existing 980 Zone pump station has an existing capacity of4 000 gpm and

can be expanded to 8 000 gpm with the addition of one pump if needed to

serve the Telegraph Canyon project The estimated operational and fire flow

storage required for the Telegraph project is 350 000 gallons The Water

Resources Master Plan states that an additional 16 2 million gallons is needed

to meet the ultimate operational storage need in the 980 Zone

Emer2encv Stora2e

Emergency storage for the 710 Zone the 980 Zone and other pressure zones

served from the San Diego County Water Authority aqueduct connection and

the Central Area Pump Station is part of a District wide project Presentlythere are plans for a large storage reservoir on the order of 50 to 100 million

gallons near the Central Area pump station and the aqueduct connection The

exact size and location of this reservoir has not yet been determined

The intent of the Otay Water District is to provide emergency storageequivalent to ten average days demand For the Telegraph Canyon project the

required volume of 10 day emergency storage is approximately 2 0 million

gallons The Telegraph Canyon project could comply with the emergency

storage requirement by paying the Central Area Service Zone Terminal

Reservoir Construction Fee For a project the size of Telegraph Canyonproject payment of fees would be more appropriate than a building a small

amount of emergency storage The Otay Water District would prefer to build

terminal reservoir storage in large volume increments

The nearest existing reclaimed water line is approximately one mile to the east

To deliver reclaimed water to the project an offsite reclaimed water transmission main will need to be constructed from the 20 inch line at Lane AvenueThe most likely alignment would be in Otay Lakes Road the size of this future

line in Otay Lakes Road will depend on the projected demand for reclaimedwater in the vicinity of the project

Onsite Reclaimed Water Facilities

Only two reclaimed water lines are proposed for the Telegraph Canyon projectThe minimum recommended size for a reclaimed water distribution main is four

inches

The scenic buffer area should be able to be served directly from irrigationmeters off the future line in Otay Lakes Road Two four inch connections and

lines are proposed to serve the SDCWA easement and parks

The SDCWA easement view parks and private recreation areas will requirepermanent irrigation from reclaimed water facilities if reclaimed water is

available According to the City of Chula Vista however the open spacescenic buffer area along Telegraph Canyon Road will only be temporarily

irrigated for two years

WATER

It should be pointed out that it is possible that reclaimed water may not be

available to be used on the Telegraph Canyon Project at the time of development If this is the case potable water will be utilized until reclaimed water

becomes available If the potable system is used initially to irrigate the open

space areas consideration must be given to the potable water connections to

ensure that cross connections are avoided when reclaimed water becomesavailable

Finally if prior to the actual construction of State Route 125 there is any

grading within the State Route 125 easement irrigation with either potable or

reclaimed water will be necessary until development of the freeway inter

change

The Otay Water District Jamacha Plant is to be expanded to 2 6 MGD and

ultimately 45 MGD The Jamacha Plant is being upgraded to provide tertiarytreatment by May 1992 The Otay Valley Reclamation plant is planned to

have an ultimate capacity of 14 0 MGD with an initial 6 0 MGD phaseexpected to be completed by 1997 It is anticipated that ultimate reclaimed

water service to the project will be supplied from the future Otay Valley Water

Reclamation plant Initially however it is not known whether or not the OtayWater District facility will be able to supply the initial reclaimed water demand

to Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road

3 8 7 Financing Water Facilities

The following table identifies the costs associated with the water facilities

required to serve the project

Current OWD policy requires ten average days of total capacity be provided for

emergency storage The total required for the Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road

project is 2 0 million gallons At 40 per gallon the 2 0 million gallonswould equate to a fee of 800 000 Terminal storage fees are collected at thetime water meters are purchased

The wastewater master plan evaluates sewer facilities from two aspects Thecurrent and future adequacy of trunk sewers and the future wastewater

treatment facilities

Wastewater Treatment

Since approximately 13 0 million gallons per day mgd of wastewater are

treated by the City of San Diego and the capacity is 19 2 mgd there is a

capacity surplus of 6 2 mgd Listed below are land uses for Chula Vista andthe established output of wastewater per day as shown in the WastewaterMaster Plan

The sewage generation factors shown above from the Wastewater Master Plan

have not been accepted by the City as a design standard For design purposesa factor of 280 gpd from the City s Subdivision Manual is used As a compromise between the measured flows in the Telegraph Canyon Basin and theMaster Plan Standard a factor of 250 gpd was used in the Telegraph CanyonSewer Basin Fee Study For estimating purposes the 250 gpd factor is usedbelow

The Federal Clean Water Act requires all Wastewater Discharges to upgradetheir Sewerage System Facilities to the secondary treatment level Chula Vista

is working with the City of San Diego s Clean Water Program to formulate an

action plan for both treatment upgrade and expansion of capacity The CleanWater Program for Greater San Diego selected alternative involves the

construction of six major water reclamation plants including one in the OtayRiver Valley This plant would serve both the Otay Mesa Area and ChulaVista s needs in the eastern territories

The City of Chula Vista authorized Dudek Engineering to perform a completestudy ofwastewater treatment and disposal alternatives as it affects Chula Vista

As a result of this study Chula Vista will determine whether the Clean Water

Program s alternative or some other option is in Chula Vista s best interestfor providing the required treatmentupgrade and or additional capacity requiredfor the total buildout Residential Dwelling Units plus Industrial and Commer

cial acres

Trunk Sewers

The wastewater master plan evaluates the trunk sewer and peak flow capacitiesfor all basins in the City The master plan s comparisons were of current sewer

flows in relation to the design capacity of each size sewer line The designcapacity is a standard for peak flows based on the sewer line s size The designcapacity flow rate is low compared to actual sewer pipe capacities But

evaluating the design capacity as opposed to the actual flow capacityestablishes an early warning system which will identify where future improvements may be necessary The report indicates that current peak flows exceed

existing design capacities on sections of pipes in the Main Street Basin

Telegraph Canyon Basin the G Street Basin and the Sweetwater Basin

The construction of new sewer trunk lines must be phased with the construction

of streets The wastewater treatment requirements and sewer trunk line systemare currently meeting the threshold standard

Information regarding the existing sewer facilities was obtained from the Draft

Telegraph Canyon Sewer Basin Improvement and Financing PIaiI prepared byWilIdan Associates dated February 1991 for the City of Chula Vista Figure16 presents the existing sewer system facilities in the vicinity of the TelegraphCanyon project

The Telegraph Canyon project is within the Telegraph Canyon drainage basinThe Telegraph Canyon basin sewer facilities follow Telegraph Canyon Road

and Otay Lakes Road east to EastLake Parkway A lO inch sewer line extends

northerly along EastLake Parkway to Miller Drive and a lO inch Sewer stub is

located in Boswell Court west of Miller Drive A l2 inch sewer line in Lane

Avenue extends northerly to the Salt Creek Ranch property The TelegraphCanyon Sewer facilities deliver flow to the 90 inch Metropolitan InterceptorSewer west of Interstate 5

Also shown on Figure 16 the Second San Diego Aqueduct traverses the

Telegraph Canyon project This is relevant to the sewering of the projectbecause all attempts should be made to avoid crossing the aqueduct with onsite

sewer mains

3 9 5 Recommended Sewerage Facilities

Onsite Facilities

The proposed onsite collection system consists of 8 inch gravity sewer linesThe existing l5 inch Telegraph Canyon Sewer is deep enough in this area to

allow gravity flow from the project under the existing drainage channel alongTelegraph Canyon Road

The alignment of the onsite gravity sewer system is based on preliminary road

alignments for the project and is subject to change as development of the

project proceeds The proposed onsite collection system does not cross the San

Offsite Facilities

The existing Telegraph Canyon basin sewer facilities were analyzed byreviewing the February 1991 Willdan Associates report Based on this reportultimate buildout of the Telegraph Canyon drainage basin is to occur in fourphases with the Telegraph Canyon project expected to be developed in thefourth phase According to the Willdan Associates report the existingTelegraph Canyon sewer system has sufficient capacity for the first three phasesof development within the basin During development of Phase IV there are

several reaches of pipe which are expected to exceed their capacity TheWilldan report recommends monitoring at the end of Phase ill and throughoutPhase IV

The Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road project is most likely to develop aheadof the Willdan schedule in Phase II rather than Phase IV The other projectsin Phase III consist of Rancho del Rey III EastLake Business Park II and theBaldwin Company s Salt Creek Ranch

Therefore the available capacity in the existing Telegraph Canyon Sewer will

depend on where the Telegraph Canyon projects falls within Phase II Development If the project develops early in Phase II there is likely to be available

capacity however if it develops late in Phase III then improvements would

be dependent on the results of the monitoring program The Master Plan

recommends that the Willdan Associates report be reviewed as progress in the

basin occurs to track the actual development and associated improvementsrequired of the Telegraph Canyon project

3 10 4 Proposed Facilities

The study area consists of gently rolling hills with moderate slopes 20gradient The site is dominated by two north south trending ridges forminga defined valley through the central portion of the project A furthernorth south trending ridge lies offsite to the east forming a second drainagebasin onsite within the existing San Diego Gas Electric easement bothbasins drain from north to south This portion of the Telegraph Canyondrainage basin lies within the upper reaches of the lower foothills of MotherMiguel Mountain as such the term canyon is not applicable to this portionof the drainage basin It would be best defined as a valley

Otay Lakes Telegraph Canyon Road lies within and defines this valley at the

project location Immediately to the north and parallel to the road within the

project site is a developed earthen drainage channel conveying runoff westerlyover a series of rock drop structures

Elevations within the study area range from 640 feet in the north to 450 feetin the sou thwest corner

A study of the existing condition for the study area encompassing TelegraphCanyon Estates determines a 50 year flow rate of 1399 6 cfs leaving the site atthe southwest corner Development of this site will generate an increase inflow rate of 23 0 cfs for a total of 1422 6 cfs

By examining the hydrologic assumptions used in the design of the channel

adjacent to Otay Lakes Telegraph Canyon Road it is apparent that a veryconservative approach was used This assumption considered that all basins

draining into this channel would be developed Using this criteria and the COvalues obtained from the Fogg Study the channel was designed for maximumrunoff potential

For Telegraph Canyon Estates the critical drainage point ofthe open drainagechannel is at the double 6 x 10 box culvert in the southwest corner of the siteThis culvert is 330 feet long with a slope of approximately two percent If thisculvert were to flow full with a water depth of 5 to 6 it has the capability tohandle a flow rate of approximately 3 500 cfs

The Master Plan for the Chula Vista Civic Center shows 126 990 square feet

of Civic Center facilities are needed to serve the population in 1988 Thisidentifies an existing space deficiency of 15 050 square feet Since the writingof the Master Plan the City has acquired the 3 120 square foot County Health

building and a 1 200 square foot Public Works office They are both listedunder Existing Facilities Because of this increase in square footage the

deficiency is reduced to 10 730 square feet

The need for the Civic Center can not be easily related topopulation fieures or

ales or commercial and industrial land which will be developed in the futureThe facilities according to the master plan are currently inadequate becauseof the lack of space This inadequacy will worsen as employee numbers andtheir workloads increase in response to demands for services which are

generated by new development

Currently FY 1990 91 the City is moving ahead to implement Phase 1 of theCivic Center Master Plan by acquiring additional land to the west of the

existing Civic Center for the proposed parking garage

Some of the size figures represent combination of remodeled exi81in lqUre footage and newly Con8lrlcted Quare

SERVICE ANALYSIS

The corporation yard is currently operating beyond capacity New development with its resultant increase in required maintenance services creates a

need for a larger corporation yard The new yard may be located east ofInterstate 805 because of the availability of centrally located large parcels A

City staff memo dated November 11 1987 states that 15 acres are needed toaccommodate 85 010 square feet of office and storage and 228 000 square feetofparking

Adequacy Analysis

The growth in population increase in street miles and the expansion of

developed areas in Chula Vista requires more equipment for maintenance as

well as more space for storage and the administration of increased numbers of

employees The need for a larger Corporation Yard can be specifically related

to new development and its effect on all of these subjects

The existing corporation yard located at F Street and Woodlawn no longeraccommodates present demands The City Council approved an agreement on

May 22 1990 between the City and Rancho Del Sur Sunbow The agreementgrants the City an option to acquire 15 net usable acres within the 46 acre

The information and observations contained in this report are based on our

present knowledge of the components of development and of the current

socioeconomic and fiscal conditions of the affected jurisdictions Projectionsmade in this report are based on hypothetical assumptions and current publicfinance policies As such there are usually differences between the projectionsand the actual results

4 1 DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT

The proposed Telegraph Canyon Road development includes 79 6 acres of new

residential development in Otay Ranch The development will contain a totalof 341 single family housing units Table 4 1 1 details the project componentsshowing the size and average market price of each product type in the

development

The phasing of the project is detailed in the absorption schedule developed byThe Baldwin Company as a conservative estimate shown in Table 4 1 2 This

schedule shows the expected annual absorption of each project componentduring the 4 year development period Annual absorption is expected to peakin the second year of the project with absorption of about 171 units For the

purpose of this analysis absorption represents new units being sold or rented

and occupied

4 2 PROJECT DEMOGRAPHICS

Since many of the impacts of the project are based on the population residingin the Telegraph Canyon Road project it was necessary to project populationlevels resulting from the absorption of new units This includes total

population as well as enrollment so that the impacts on school districts could

be assessed

Table 4 2 1 shows the household size factors and student generation rates

applied to the absorption of new units to calculate the population and

enrollment projections for Telegraph Canyon Road Population per dwellingunit assumptions were obtain from the City of Chula Vista Planning Department The population per dwelling unit for single family detached homes of

3 24 is based on total housing inventory

Student generation rates also shown in Table 4 2 1 were obtained in

interviews with the Chula Vista Elementary School District and the Sweetwater

Union High School District Student generation rates estimate the number of

elementary and high school students that would be expected to result from the

addition of one new housing unit Elementary junior high and high school

student generation rates used in this analysis were 0 30 0 10 and 0 19 students

per housing unit respectively Since the junior high and high school student

attend a single district these rates were aggregated to 0 29 for this analysis

Since some revenue line items are best estimated using the number of occupiedhousing units it was also necessary to make assumptions about the long term

occupancy rates in the Telegraph Canyon Road project Single familyoccupancy rates were assumed to be 97 percent These assumptions were based

on data from the 1990 Census and our experience with Southern California

real estate markets

These occupancy rates are shown applied to projected housing absorption in

Table 4 2 2 Note that all units are assumed to be occupied in the year in

which they are first sold This results in the total number of occupied units

peaking in the fourth year of the development at 332 units and subsidingslightly to 331 units during subsequent years

Application of household size assumptions to the number of new unitsproducedthe population projections for Telegraph Canyon Road shown in Table 4 2 3

The project is expected to house 197 people by the end of its first year and

increase to a total of 1 105 people by year 5 Projections for elementary school

4 3 IMPACT ON THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA

This portion of the analysis will address the fiscal impact of the developmenton the operation and maintenance budget of the City Theanalysis assumes theconstraints and limitations imposed by existing State laws including Proposition13

In general the methodology employed in this analysis is driven by socioeconomic and other planning variables suitable for predicting revenues from a

particular source or expenditures in a particular department By applying theratio of Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road to the City ofChula Vista for eachvariable the impact on revenues and expenditures as a result of the development can be calculated

Table 4 3 1 shows the set of socioeconomic and planning variables compiledfor Chula Vista for the purpose of this impact analysis Levels for eachvariable shown in the table are for January I 1991 with the exception of

employment which is a 1988 estimate from SANDAG Also an integral partof the expenditure side of this analysis is the calculation of total EquivalentDwelling Units EDUs for the City of Chula Vista

The EDU factor is based on the concept that public services are delivered to a

community which consists of both residences and businesses It is an

adaptation of the equivalent connection unit concept used in utility rate analysisand utility billings It provides a unit cost measure with a common base for all

activities a measure computed by dividing expenditures by a base factor of

EDUs

An EDU is equivalent to one residential unit The total number of residential

EDUs is calculated by dividing the population by the average persons perhousehold Businesses are factored in by dividing total local employment bythe average persons per household as shown in Table 4 3 1 The residential

EDUs 51 671 plus the business EDUs 17 539 makeup the total EDUs in the

City of Chula Vista 69 210

4 3 1 Revenues

With two exceptions revenue information for the City of Chula Vista includedin this analysis is based on actual fiscal year 1990 91 data obtained from theSchedule of Revenues Revenues from the Ordinance Violations and CigaretteTax were based on 1991 92 revenue estimates of 100 000 and 122 000respectively as recommended by the City of Chula Vista Department ofFinance However results of the impact analysis are expressed on constant

1991 dollars Although the analysis is based on constant dollars the generalrate of infiation and property value appreciation rates will have an effect on theresults of the analysis relative to Proposition 13 For this analysis both rates

are assumed to be 4 5 percent per annum

Table 4 3 2 displays the current General Fund revenue information for the Cityof Chula Vista by source Also shown in this table are the assumptions madeto estimate the flow of revenues resulting from the Baldwin Telegraph CanyonRoad development Four sources of revenue are explicitly calculated based on

current tax regulations property tax property transfer tax franchise taxes and

utility taxes Calculation of these revenues is detailed below Six sources of

revenues were identified as not being directly impacted by development in

Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road including current unsecured property taxes

delinquent property taxes transient lodging business licenses other revenue

from other agencies and other revenues Most of these revenues are either

from sources which would be unaffected by any specific development or theyare excluded because of the purely residential composition of Baldwin Tele

graph Canyon Road The remaining revenue sources including sales tax are

estimated on a per capita basis

Prooertv Tax

Property tax is a function of the property tax rate and the total assessed value

TAV of the development The property tax rate limit of I percent of total

assessed value is shared out to jurisdictions according to Annual Tax Increment

ratios This analysis utilizes a rate of 13 85 percent the average ratio ofTAV

FISCAL ANALYSIS

Due toProposition 13 assessed value can only increase at the rate of 2 percentper year unless the property is sold Therefore the calculation of projectedassessed value must take into consideration not only original sales price and therate of inflation but also the rate a which housing units are re sold If we

assume that the rate of housing appreciation is equal to the rate of inflationthen as time goes on the total assessed value of any property will declineunless the rate of inflation is less than 2 percent or all properties sell each yearIn order to simulate this process it is necessary to determine the rate ofturnover for each component of development Turnover rates from AngusMcDonald Associates used in the Macroanalysis for Otay Ranch were usedin this analysis for Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road Table 4 3 3 shows the

application of these rates in terms of the number of re saIes in Baldwin Tele

graph Canyon Road

When a unit is re sold its increase in assessed value is the difference betweenI the selling price and 2 its previous selling price inflated at 2 percent peryear Therefore it is necessary to determine the period of time since a unit

was last sold The reciprocal of the turnover rate yields the average time since

a unit was last sold a seven percent turnover rate implying resale every 14 3

years However this rate cannot be used in the early years of a developmentsince none of the units will be old enough to have been sold 14 years ago Asa result no re sale of units occurs in the first year of development and the

average age at resale increases with the age of the development until the later

years of the analysis The total number of sales re sales stabilizes in the postdevelopment period at 24 units annually or about 7 0 percent of the projectinventory

Total assessed value becomes the sum of the value of each unit at the originaltime of sale plus the increase in assessed value at the time of resale usingprices inflated at the rate of 4 5 percent per year Therefore the projections of

total assessed value must be deflated at the rate of inflation to keep the analysisin constant 1991 dollars This method represents a conservative approach to

property value appreciation which could tend to understate resulting propertytax revenues

FISCAL ANALYSIS

Table 4 3 4 shows the calculation of total assessed value for Baldwin TelegraphCanyon Road in thousands of dollars based on the assumptions outlined above

In constant dollars the total assessed value of BaldwinlTelegraph Canyon Road

peaks in the last of year of development year 4 at just over 913 million

The assessed value then begins to gradually decline as the rate of inflation

begins to outstrip the 2 percent increase in value experienced on most units

Using the current allocation of property tax dollars to the City of Chula Vista

the peak year would generate about 126 460 in property tax revenues for e

City

Sales Tax

Pronertv Transfer Tax

Sales of real property in San Diego countv are taxed at the rate of 1 10 per1 000 of the sales price Chula Vista would receive 50 rcent of revenue

resulting from this tax Ta e 4 3 5 shows t e sa es and re sales of housingunits 10 HaJdwmnelegraph Canyon Road These sales multiplied by the

average market price in for that year and the tax rate yield projections of

property transfer taxes resulting from Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road in Table

4 3 6 As with property taxes the total value of the collections must be

deflated at the rate of inflation to retain constant 1991 dollars

Franchise Taxes

Calculation of franchise taxes for Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road are based

on the assumptions established by Angus McDonald Associates in Macro

analysis report Franchise taxes in the City of Chula Vista are collected for

sales of natural gas electricity cable television and trash collection Gross

FlSCAL ANALYSIS

Table 4 3 8 displays the current General Fund expenditure information for the

City of Chula Vista by department Cost items are separated into two groupsLine Operations and Overhead Functions Overhead functions include all

general government functions as well as the building and custodial maintenancefunctions of public works These items currently represent 17 17 percent of all

city expenditures or 20 7 percent of the total Line Operations So as not to

burden Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road with overhead charges fordepartmentsnot impacted by the development overhead cost are calculated as 20 7 percentof the Line Operation impact of the project

The impact of Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road on most ofthe Line Operationsare estimated using population and the Equivalent Dwelling Unit EDU

methodology discussed previously However for some public services suchas street maintenance specific factors like miles of street are acknowledged as

preferable indicators of cost

Not included in the analysis are expenditures in departments where user fees are

calculated to exactly cover the cost of providing the services Specificallythese include the Economic and Community Development Building and

Housing and Sanitary Sewer and Waste Water Maintenance departments

The following sections review the impact assumptions for the Line Operationswhich would be impacted by Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road

Police and Fire Protection

Expenditure projections for police and fire protection are projected usingEDUs As shown in Table 4 3 9 Police Protection and Animal Control

services are 212 19 per EDU resulting in an annual impact of about 72 357in the build out stage of the project Fire Protection is estimated to cost 83 64

per EDU translating into an annual impact of about 28 521 for Baldwin

Telegraph Canyon at build out

Public Works

The basis for allocating the cost of Public Works administration included onlyOperations Administration 370 819 and Communications 172 045

resulting in an allocation rate of 7 84 per EDU city wide All other costs in

the area of Public works are derived from street and traffic operation andmaintenance costs Since the Telegraph Canyon road project has no publicstreets these costs are not applicable Telegraph Canyon Road development

will require annual expenditures of about 2 673 for public works administration and communications

Parks and Recreation Library

The expenditure cost allocation assumptions for these departments are as

follows

Allocation ofadministration and maintenance costs are based on the totalnumber of park acres

Administration costs for open space are not applicable because they willbe paid through a lighting and landscaping districtAll Recreation and Library expenditures are on a per capita basis

These assumptions actual City wide expenditures and the ratio of Baldwin

Telegraph Canyon to the City of Chula for each variable yield projectedexpenditures Currently the City of Chula Vista has 3174 acres of parkabout 700 acres of open space and a population of 139 150 as shown in Table

4 3 1 Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road will be responsible for 3 32 acres of

park for a total population of about 1 105 This results in total annual

expenditures for Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road of about 33 192 annuallywhen the development is complete

Total Exuenditures

Total City operation and maintenance expenditures resulting from Baldwin

Telegraph Canyon Road are projected to stabilize at about 194 366 annuallyas shown in Table 4 3 9 Expenditures are projected to increase steadily duringthe development phase beginning with about 33 975 in the first year and

increasing to about 194 604 by year four

FISCAL ANALYSIS

4 4 IMPACT ON OTAY WATER DISTRICT

Order of magnitude operation and maintenance fiscal impacts ofBaldwin Tele

graph Canyon Road on the atay Water District were also projected as part ofthis analysis Table 44 1 shows the basic characteristics of the District as

well as its operating revenues and expenditures based on water operations onlySewer services in the Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road area will be providedby the City of Chula Vista All cost and revenue allocation projections are

based on the fact that 51 percent of water consumption in the District is byresidences

Allocation of revenues accruing to the atay Water District from developmentin Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road are based on current average sales r

household of 459 76 annually Cost allocation factors tor most expendltu e

classes are based on residential consumption expressed in terms of dollars peraverage daily gallons consumed However the share of expenses attributableto paid services billed through work orders are calculated as follows payrollallocated to work orders is assumed to be 27 6 percent of total payroll as per1990 91 actual performance Reimbursed overhead and equipment expendituresare projected to be 43 0 percent and 7 5 percent of work order related payrollalso based on actual 1990 91 performance

Application of these revenue and cost allocation factors to development inBaldwin Telegraph Canyon Road result in a net fiscal loss of about 676

annually at the buildout stage of the project see Table 44 2 However sincethis represents only about 04 percent of the revenues and costs resulting from

the development it is reasonable to expect that virtually no net impact will be

experienced This is also consistent with comments made by atay WaterDistrict staff who insisted that rates would be adjusted as needed to balance

revenues and operation and maintenance expenditures

4 5 CHULA VISTA ELEMENTARY SCHOOL DISTRICT

Operation and maintenance impacts on the Chula Vista Elementary SchoolDistrict were projected based on the number of students generated by development of Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road The methodology used to projectschool enrollment was described in Section 4 2 Revenues and expenditures perstudent for the District were calculated using 199091 average daily attendanceof 17 501 and actual revenues and expenditures for 1990 91 as shown in the1991 92 Budget Further Chula Vista Elementary School District staff wereconsulted to discuss which if any revenue or expenditure items would not besensitive to the number of students from Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road

Projections of revenues accrued due to BaldwinTelegraph Canyon Road arebased on per student rates for revenue limit sources Federal revenue and a

portions of other State revenues totalling 3 351 per annum as shown in Table45 1 Revenue limit sources are not directly affected by assessed value in the

District since revenues in this category are limited by the State Certainrevenue sources were excluded from the projections because they would not beimpacted by an increase in the student population

Allocation ofexpenditures to development in BaldwinTelegraph Canyon Roadwas also based on per student rates with the exception of capital outlay andother outgo These items were identified by staff as not being impacted by thenumber ofchildren resulting from BaldwinlTelegraph Canyon Road especiallyin light of the capital improvement funding that is being established Total perstudent expenditures were estimated to be 3 400 annually as shown in Table45 1

The rate for revenues and expenditures per student multiplied by the numberof elementary school children in Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road at buildoutresults in annual net fiscal loss of about 5 009 However as shown in Table4 5 2 this amount corresponds to about 15 percent of total revenues of

341 841 Therefore it is reasonable to assume that no significant net impactsmay be experienced The district has commented that while any loss is causefor concern the assumptions and parameters used in the analysis are such thata minor change in anyone assumption could change the net fiscal loss into a

fiscal gain

The impacts of Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road on the operation and maintenance budget of the Sweetwater Union High School District were projectedbased on the projected number of high school students The methodology usedto project high school enrollment was described in Section 4 2 Per studentrevenues and expenditures for the District were calculated using 199091

average daily attendance of 27 894 and actual revenues and expenditures for1990 91 as shown in Table 4 6 1

Revenue streams resulting from BaldwinITe1egraph Canyon Road are based on

per student rates for revenue limit sources Federal revenue and portions ofother State revenues totalling 4 120 per annum Certain revenue sources were

excluded from the projections because they would not be impacted by an

increase in the student population

Allocation ofDistrict expenditures resulting from development in Baldwin Tele

graph Canyon Road was also based on per student rates with the exception of

Capital Outlay and Other Outgo Total per student expenditures were estimatedto be 4 090 annually

The rate for revenues and expenditures per student multiplied by the numberofhigh school students in Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road at buildout resultsin annual net fiscal gain of about 2 960 However as shown in Table 4 6 2this amount corresponds to about 0 72 percent of total revenues of 412 099Therefore it is reasonable to assume that no significant net impacts may be

experienced for operations and maintenance functions

5 1 1 Overview

The City will ensure the appropriate public facilities financing mechanisms are

utilized to fund the acquisition construction and maintenance ofpublic facilitiesrequired to support the planned development of the BaldwinlTelegraph CanyonRoad project in compliance with the City s Growth Management Program

Public facilities are generally provided or financed in one ofthe following threeways

1 Subdivision Exaction Developer constructed and financed as a

condition of project approval

2 Development Impact Fee Funded through the collection ofan impactfee Constructed by the public agency or

developer constructed with a reimbursement

or credit against specific fees

3 Debt Financing Funded using one of several debt financemechanisms Constructed by the publicagency or developer

It is anticipated that all three methods will be utilized for the BaldwinlTelegraph Canyon Road project to construct and finance public facilities

5 12 Subdivision Exactions

Neighborhood level public improvements will bedeveloped simultaneously withrelated residential and non residential subdivisions Through the use of theSubdivision Map Act it is the responsibility of the developer to provide for alllocal street utility and recreation improvements The use of subdivisionconditions and exactions where appropriate will insure that the construction

of neighborhood facilities is timed with actual development

The imposition of subdivision conditions and exactions does not preclude the

use of other public facilities financing mechanisms to finance the publicimprovement when appropriate

5 13 Development Impact Fee Programs

Development Impact Fees are imposed by various governmental agenciesconsist with State law to contribute to the financing of capital facilitiesimprovements within the City of Chula Vista The distinguishing factorbetween a fee and a subdivision exaction is that exactions are requested of a

specific developer for a specific project whereas fees are levied on all

development projects throughout the City or benefit area pursuant to an

established formula and in compliance with State law

Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road through policy decisions ofthe City ofChula

Vista and other governing agencies is subject to fees established to help defraycosts of facilities which will benefit Baldwin Telegraph Canyon Road and areas

beyond this specific project These fees include but may not be limited to

1 Eastern Chula Vista TransDonation Impact Fee Street DIFestablished10 provide financing for circulation element road projects of regionalsignificance in the area east of Interstate 805

paying State mandated school fees

8 Olay Water District Fees It should be noted that the Water District

may require the formation ofor annexation to an existing improvementdistrict or creation of some other finance mechanism which may result in

specific fees being waived

5 1 4 Debt Finance Programs

The City of Chula Vista has used assessment districts to finance a number ofstreet improvements as well as sewer and drainage facilities Both school

districts have implemented Mello Roos Community Facilities Districts to

finance school facilities

Assessment Districts

Special assessment districts may be proposed for the purpose of acquiringconstructing maintaining certain public improvements under the MunicipalImprovement Act of 1913 the Improvement Bond Act of 1915 and the

Lighting and Landscape Act of 1972 The general administration of the specialassessment district is the responsibility of the public agency

Special assessment financing may be appropriate when the value or benefit of

the public facility can be assigned to a specific property Assessments are levied

in specific amounts against each individual property on the basis of relative

benefit Special assessments may be used forboth publicly dedicated on site and

off site improvements

MelloRoos Community Facilities Act of 1982

The Mello Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982 authorizes formation of

community facilities districts which impose special taxes to provide the

financing of certain public facilities or services Facilities which can be

provided under the Mello Roos Act include the purchase construction

expansion or rehabilitation of the following

1 Local park recreation or parkway facilities

2 Elementary and secondary school sites and structures

5 15 Other Methods Used to Finance Facilities

General Fund

The City of Chula Vista s general fund serves to pay for many public services

throughout the City Those facilities and services identified as being funded bygeneral fund sources represent those that will benefit not only the residents ofthe proposed project but also Chula Vista residents throughout the City Inmost cases other financing mechanisms are available to initially construct or

provide the facility or service then general fund monies would only be

expected to fund the maintenance costs once the facility is accepted by the City

State and Federal Fundinl

Although rarely available to fund an entire project Federal and State financialand technical assistance programs have been available to public agencies inparticular the public school districts

The City was recently awarded a 6 million State Grant to construct the

Montgomery Otay Library

Dedications

Dedication of sites by developers for public capital facilities is a common

financing tool used by many cities In the case of BaldwinlTelegraph CanyonRoad the following public sites are proposed to be dedicated

I Roads if public2 Park sites

3 Open space and public trail systems

Develooer Reimbursement Alreements

Certain facilities that are off site of BaldwinlTelegraph Canyon Road andor

provide regional benefits may be constructed in conjunction with the development of BaldwinlTelegraph Canyon Road In such instances developerreimbursement agreements will be executed to provide for a future payback tothe developer for the additional costofthese facilities Future developments are

required to pay back their fair share of the costs for the shared facility when

development occurs

Soecial Alreementsffievelooment Alreement

This category includes special development programs for financing constructionof Telegraph Canyon Road and State Route 125 It also includes any other

special arrangements between the City and the developer such as credits againstfees waiver of fees or charges for the construction of specific facilities

A development agreement can play an essential role in the implementation ofthe Public Facilities Financing Plan The Public Facilities Financing Planclearly details all public facility responsibilities and assures that the constructionof all necessary public improvements will be appropriately phased with actual

development while the development agreement identifies the obligations and

requirements of both parties

5 16 Public Facility Finance Policies

The following finance policies were included and approved with the Growth

Management Program to maintain a financial management system that will be

implemented consistently when considering future development applicationsThese policies will enable the City to effectively manage its fiscal resources in

response to the demands placed on the City by future growth

1 Prior to receiving final approval developers shall demonstrate and

guarantee that compliance is maintained with the City s adopted threshold

standards

2 The Capital Improvement Program Budget will be consistent with the

goals and objectives of the Growth Management Program The CapitalImprovement Program Budget establishes the timing for funding ofall fee

related public improvements

6 All fee credit arrangements or reimbursement agreements will be made

based upon the City s plans for the timing and funding ofpublic facilitiescontained in the Capital Improvement Program Budget

7 Public facility improvements made ahead of the City s plans toconstruct

the facilities will result in the need for additional operating and mainte

nance funds Therefore all such costs associated with the facilityconstruction shall become the responsibility of the developer until such

time as the City had previously planned the facility improvement to be

made

5 17 C CumulativeDebtThe City of Chula Vista has an established policy limiting the maximum debt

to be placed on a residential dwelling unit 10 an aOOIUOnal one percent above

the nronertv tax This policy was restated in the adopted Growth Mana2ementProgram

5 18 Lifecycle Cost

Section 19 09 060 Analysis subsection F 2 of the Growth ManagementOrdinance requires the following

The inventory shall include LifeCycle Cost LCC projectionsfor each element in 19 09 060E as they pertain to City fiscal

responsibility The LCC projections shall be for estimated life

cycle for each element analyzed The model used shall be able to

identify and estimate initial and recurring life cycle costs for

the elements

Backlround

The following material presents information on the general aspects of life cyclecost analysis as well as its specific application to the City of Chula Vista

operations The discussion regarding the general benefits and process of LCC

is meant to provide a common base of understanding upon which further

analysis can take place

Life cycle costing LCC is a method of calculating the total cost of asset

ownershio over the life span of the asset Initial costs and all subsequentexpected costs of significance are included in the life cycle cost analysis as well

as disposal value and any other quantifiable benefits to be derived as a result

of owning the asset Operating and maintenance costs over the life of an asset

often times far exceed initial costs and must be factored into the decision

process

Life cycle cost analysis should not be used in each and every purchase of an

asset The process itself carries a cost and therefore can add to the cost of theasset Life Cycle Cost analysis can be justified only in those cases in which the

cost of the analysis can be more than offset by the savings derived through the

purchase of the asset

Four major factors which may intluence the economic feasibility of applyingLCC analysis are

1 Energy Intensiveness LCC should be considered when the anticipatedenergy costs of the purchase are expected to be large throughout its life

PuBLIC FACJLITV FINANCE

2 Life Expectancy For assets with long lives Le greater than five

years costs other than purchase price take on added importance For

assets with short lives the initial costs become a more important factor

3 Efficiency The efficiency of operation and maintenance can have

significant impact on overall costs LCC is beneficial when savings can

be achieved through reduction of maintenance costs

4 Investment Cost As a general rule the larger the investment the more

important LCC analysis becomes

The four major factors listed above are not however necessary ingredients for

life cycle cost analysis A quick test to determine whether life cycle costingwould apply to a purchase is to ask whether there are any post purchase costs

associated with it Life cycle costs are a combination of initial and postpurchase costs

The term capital budgeting is defined as the process ofanalyzing expenditureson assets expected to provide returns beyond a year to determine if theyshould be included in the capital budget The outlays may be for facilities

which are either revenue producing or nonrevenue producing

Lifecycle costing is not something different from capital budgeting but rather

is generally understood to be the application of capital budgeting tononrevenue

producing projects Capital budgeting is a term more familiar to industry while

life cycle costing is more familiar to government The principles are the same

however regardless of the terminology since the objective is to maximize

benefits and minimize costs For nonrevenue producing projects such questionsseB

VWill it pay for itse1fIf so in what period of timeWhich of several alternatives will cost the least or save the most

Should it be leased or boughtShould it be replaced

These are questions which can be answered by the application of life cyclecosting methods

of its financing is referred to as the cost of capital Government obtainsfunds primarily from taxation sale of bonds and through the process of

development exactions and although the cost of capital definition is not

exactly parallel the application to capital analysis is similar

As long as capital can be employed in other projects and earn a return it is not

free it has an opportunity cost Opportunity cost refers to the cost

sacrificed by not investing in an alternative project This applies even wherethe capital takes the form ofassets other than cash as long as a cashequivalentcan be established for the assets To say that capital has an opportunity cost

is another way of saying that money has a time value The present worth ofmoney due in the future is calculated by a process known as discounting The

discounting process facilitates the translation of future values topresent valuesIf the total cost ofowning an asset is its initial cost and all subsequent costs

the latter must be discounted to present value before they are combined withinitial cost to obtain the life cycle cost

All life cycle cost analysis must be performed in terms of compatible dollars

that is dollars dated as of a point in time or a period of time The tools oflife

cycle cost analysis by which dollar values are shifted in time are based upon sixbasic interest formulas The symbols used in these formulas are

i interest rate per periodn number of interest periodsP present worth or present value

F future worth or future value

A uniform sum of money in each time period

Using these tools of life cycle cost analysis and the concept of the time valueof money two methods of life cycle costing are generally available They are

the present worth method and the uniform annual cost method When the

present worth method is used all expenditures regardless of when theyoccur are compared during a common year that is baseline year Future

expenditures are properly discounted to reflect their time value using the six

basic formulas Once these future expenditures are discounted they may be

compared properly to expenditures incurred todayor during the baseline

year Once this discounting is accomplished all expenditures are weighed on

a common basis and may be added together to obtain a total present worth

value

The other method uniform annual cost method reduces each alternative cost

to the equivalent base of a uniform annual cost By using this method both

present dollars and future dollars are converted to a uniform annual cost while

taking into account the time value of money at a particular interest rate All

present costs are broken down into equivalent yearly payments throughout thelife cycle All future costs spent at any time during the life cycle are alsobroken down into equivalent yearly payments throughout the life cycle All the

equivalent yearly costs are then added together to establish the total uniform

annual cost

When comparing alternatives the same result will be achieved whether the

present worth method or uniform annual cost method is used The same

relative cost advantage will result from either method of calculation

An important step in life cycle cost analysis is the development of an allinclusive listing of all costs and dollar benefits associated with a given facilityThis listing must include all dollar flows from the first outlay to disposal of the

facility and must be categorized by stage of ownership to facilitate the LCC

analysis as follows

I Initial Cost Period Conceptual studies design planning acquisitioninstallation testing training financing of preoperational phaseExpenditures made prior to the LCC analysis called sunk costs arenot

included

2 Use Period

a Operating costs staffing energy insurance security increasesin working capital personnel training

b Maintenance Costs parts used repair cleaning painting all

corrective and preventive maintenance

c Replacement costs

3 Disposal Period Costs of removal and restoration salvage value and

release of working capital are benefits ie negative costs

Shouldn t the wear depreciation on a piece of equipment be included as a

cost The answer is no since there is no cash outlay for depreciation The

cash was paid initially for the purchase and to include depreciation as a cost

would be counting it twice Purchasers in the private sector who are subjectto federal income tax may deduct depreciation as an expense provided an

approved method of accounting for the depreciation is used

One of the objections to the use of life cycle costing is that the estimation offuture costs is too difficult Aren t the estimates merely guesses And whyshould decisions be based on guesses If life cycle costing is based on dubious

estimates how useful can it be

In response to these questions it can be argued that there is no alternative to

life cycle costing Buying on initial cost is not an alternative to buying on life

cycle cost All purchases are made for a life cycle and the only differencebetween initial cost and life cycle cost purchasing is in the judgement about the

treatment of future costs Lifecycle costing if done correctly recognizes that

post purchase costs matter that they do have value and that a consideredestimate of those costs is likely to be closer to true value than the zero value

presumption In either case ajudgement about future costs cannot be avoided

The only real issue is what the judgement will be

Undeniably there is some guesswork in predicting costs but often information

can be obtained which will reduce the uncertainty of the estimates It may be

that an estimate can be narrowed down to a range but even that informationis useful

The following is a step by step description for completing the Life Cycle Cost

Anplications for LCC Analvsis

The City ofChula Vista currently utilizes life cycle cost analysis in determiningthe most cost effective purchase of capital equipment as well as in the

determination of replacement costs for a variety of rolling stock The use of

LCC techniques takes place in the preparation of the City s Five Year CapitalImprovement Budget CIP as well as in the Capital Outlay sections of the

annual Operating Budget

There are no project facilities that are not covered by LCC analysis In

addition to these existing processes the City should require the use of LCC

analysis prior to or concurrent with the design of public facilities required bynew development Such a requirement will assist in the determination of the

most cost effective selection of public facilities

5 19 Baldwinffelegraph Canyon Road Project

The following tables identify and summarize the various facility costs associated

with development of the Baldwinrrelegraph Canyon Road project The

facilities and their cost are identified in detail in Section 3 of this Public

Facilities Financing Plan The tables indicate a recommended financingalternative based upon current City practices and policies However where

another financing mechanism may be shown at a later date tobe moreeffective

the City may implement such other mechanisms in accordance with Citypolicies This will allow the City maximum flexibility in determining the best

use ofpublic financing to fund public infrastructure improvements
