I've lived in Chula Vista for over 10 years, just down
the way from the Sunbow Community. My mom,
who is 78, has lived in Chula Vista for 8 years. She
likes living in her community, knowing her neighbors;
seniors like herself, looking out for each other. She
feels safe. Her church is up the street, her favorite
stores are nearby. She wants to continue to live
independently but with the price of everything
increasing and living on a fixed income, she stresses
about paying her basic expenses like rent, utilities,
food etc. I've looked around for Senior Apts., hoping
to find something a little more affordable. I've come
to realize, it's almost impossible for a senior, living on a fixed income, to live on their own in San Diego
County. This project preserves roughly 70 affordable
units for low-income seniors. Please vote yes on
Sunbow's request and continue to make affordable
housing available to Seniors, like my mom. Giving
them a little peace of mind and the opportunity to
live live independently and to stay in their
community. Support

Currently living in the Irvine area and had heard
about Lennar building homes on the Sunbow
property. I think it would be great to have some
medium priced housing in the area that would be
affordable for me. Support

Hello Mayor Salas and members of the City Council,
I own a townhouse here in Chula Vista and was
impressed to learn about the community benefits
agreement included in upcoming Sunbow project in
the UT.
Ive heard the discussion about the need to preserve
industrial land, but what weve seen in a lot of
instances is where this type of property isnt going to
high-paying tech jobs. Its going to gyms and storage
facilities which isnt providing the benefits to the city that this project would. The monies outlined in the
Community Benefits Agreement will help bring new
jobs, add parkland, and invest tens of millions of
dollars more into our community than what an
industrial project would bring.
I think this type of agreement is a really smart way
make sure that the city is able to generate revenue
for the projects and initiatives needed most, instead
of just accepting that a 30-year-old plan is still
relevant. Kudos to you and to the applicant for
working together on this.
I hope you approve this project. Thank you!

Im writing to share my support for the new
townhomes at Brandywine and Olympic Parkway.
My kids are in their early 20s and buying a home is a
priority. Looking forward, homeownership is
becoming less and less likely for them, unless they
get help from me or have dual income households.
These new townhomes would help give options to
young people looking to break into the housing
market. If you look on Zillow, there isnt currently
anything on the market like this. Chula Vista is a
great community and I hope that were able to keep
our young people here, instead of them moving to
cheaper states.
Thank you.

This will not increase the affordability levels at Villa Serena as this is a senior housing project. 10% of the new units should be available to new homeowners
per the City's Balanced Communities Policy and
Housing Element Goals and Objectives. No new
affordable housing for working families will be
available. Thank you. Oppose

Will Lennar enter into a covenant to ensure that the
units will be sold in the $400,000 price tag as stated
in the presentation? Oppose
