SAN DIEGO-The state Coastal Commission is scheduled to vote Tuesday in Los Angeles on plans to develop about 360 acres of the Naval Training Center property. Staff for the Coastal Commission, concerned about the city’s plans for the former base, has recommended denial unless the city makes some 28 changes, according to the staff report.

City officials say the key issue is the commission staff’s call to cut the proposed maximum height of office buildings from 58 feet to 45 feet to preserve ocean views. Commission staff also wants a former Navy chapel preserved for public use on the NTC property between Lindbergh Field and Rosecrans Street. The city proposes that it be used as a conference center for one of two hotels proposed for the project.

Plans call for 380,000 sf of office/research and development space, 350 homes, 46 acres of parks, an arts and culture center, other educational facilities, a golf course and a parking structure with 3,750 spaces.
