Welcome to the SanDiegoTijuana Mega Region!
The SanDiegoTijuana Mega Region is home to the busiest land border in the world and has
helped fuel the rise of SanDiego and Chula Vista as the most business-friendly, economically
advanced cities in the U.S. Thanks in large part to a social, economic and legal symbiosis between
Tijuana and SanDiego, the Mega Regions GDP is estimated at more than $230 billion, roughly
equal to that of Ireland. SanDiego County provides capital, scientific and technical knowledge,
and management expertise, while Tijuana provides a highly skilled manufacturing workforce,
ample space and low business and real estate costs.

With a combined population of more than 6.5 million, the SanDiegoTijuana Mega Region
boasts the largest concentration of population along the U.S.-Mexico border. The SanDiego
Tijuana Mega Region provides access to the lucrative California and North American markets,
and is the countrys gateway to the global markets in the Pacific Rim and the emerging Latin
American markets.

Our robust internal infrastructure connections include 6 border crossings, 5 interstate freeways,
2 international airports, 2 specialized maritime port facilities and rail links, making the region a
globally unique bi-national location for business investments.

Tijuana and SanDiegos geographically blessed location is more than just a doorway to trade
and commerce: its a doorway to world-renowned beaches and bays and a quality of life found
in few other places.

We welcome you to discover all that the SanDiegoTijuana Mega Region has to offer for your
business investments.

 The SanDiegoTijuana Mega Region is a unique $230 bil-
lion bi-national region in Southern California and northern
Mexico primed to become a global business leader. The
region, comprised of SanDiego and Imperial counties and
Baja California, provides direct access to lucrative markets
including California and North America, the Pacific Rim,
and the emerging markets of Latin America.

To some, SanDiego is a beach and border town. But Americas Finest

City has long been considered a hub for the clean tech, life sciences,
and communication industries. In recent years, the city has emerged
as a high-tech powerhouse and entrepreneurial haven.

To the east is Imperial Valley. The year-round supply of sunshine and

the low cost of land has helped turn this rural county into a leading
producer of geothermal energy and an epicenter for wind, solar, and
biofuel development.

South of the border, Baja California boasts an extensive manufacturing

base with more than 900 manufacturing companies and over 600,000
skilled workers.

While SanDiego enjoys the 17th largest economy among metro areas
in the United States, Baja California is undergoing a renaissance that
has led to a boom of cultural and economic growth. Together, the
areas that form the Mega Region will create a globally-connected
ecosystem of innovative businesses, multicultural talent, and start-
to-finish product development to forge an economic success story
as unique as its offerings.

Users at Millenia Office will be able to tap into a vast pool of talented and highly educated work force that is currently commuting
north on severely impacted highways. The ability to work closer to home will save these employees countless hours and significant
dollars which translates to increased productivity for employers.
Millenia Office is strategically located within the Millenia Master Plan in Eastern Chula Vista which has major construction in
multiple districts under way. Millenia will be a vibrant walkable community anchored by food, retail, public parks, hospitality,
business, and housing.
Millenia is planned for:
Up to 3,000 multi-family residences
2 million square feet of Class A office space on 30 acres
1.5 million square feet of retail, hospitality, civic and mixed-use projects
Six themed urban parks and a variety of tree-lined promenades, casual gathering places, bikeways, and plazas.
Population at build out will be approximately 7,500.

Sustainability and Wellness

The vision for Millenia Office is to create an ecosystem where the workplace and nature are mutually celebrated. The Think
Campus, breaking ground in fall 2017, will set a new standard for the future of workspace where restorative design promotes
health and wellness for occupants and the environment. It is slated to achieve LEED Platinum, as well as a Gold rating under the
new WELL Building Standard, which places its emphasis on human wellness and experience.

Financial Goals
Chesnut Properties is seeking to establish financial relationships that will assist in achieving the goal of creating this new dynamic
business hub for California. Millenia Office sits in a new market region, offering an opportunity for investment to bring and activate
a world-class project to a bi-national location. Chesnut Properties is looking for creative strategies and capital relationships that
would expedite this process and commence construction on the project. The ultimate goal is for the entire Millenia Office project
to be under construction at the earliest date possible. We are seeking relationships immediately that would facilitate this goal.

The Think Campus features 325,000 sqft of space, a cafe/fitness center, and a 1,302 car parking garage. Construction is scheduled to commence in fall of 2017.

ChulaVista Bayfront Development Site

ChulaVista Bayfront
A FULLY ENTITLED MASTER PLAN READY FOR DEVELOPMENT

The ChulaVista Bayfront is located at the south end of SanDiego Bay.

Approximately 535 acres of industrial Bayfront landscape are being trans-
ChulaVista Bayside Park
formed into a thriving destination, complete with resort hotels, a convention
center, shopping, dining and a marina.
The Port of SanDiego and the City of ChulaVista have been partners in this
effort to create the largest waterfront development opportunity on the
West Coast.
The central portion of the ChulaVista Bayfront is where most of the commer-
cial density will be placed, thus allowing for parks, habitat and low-intensity
development. This area can accommodate up to 2,850 hotel rooms, with the
majority contained in a resort hotel and convention center. The resort hotel and
convention center will also include up to approximately 100,000 square feet of
restaurant space, 20,000 square feet of retail space and 415,000 square feet
ChulaVista HarborFest
of conference center space. Negotiations are currently in process for the resort
hotel and conference center.
Additional uses include:
200,000 square feet of cultural/retail uses
100,000 square feet of mixed-use commercial
recreation/marine-related office uses
1,100 3,000 space parking garage
225,000 square feet of visitor-serving retail and marina support
Future development opportunities include additional retail,
industrial business uses, office and open space.

Additionally, development of the 100-acre northern portion of the ChulaVista

Public & Community Investment

A development of this size also requires significant public infrastructure,
including everything from curbs and gutters to streetlights and sewer pipes.
We want developers to understand that theres a plan not only to BUILD the
infrastructure, but to PAY for it.
Our infrastructure financing plans have also been approved and are ready to
accompany private sector development. Our most recently completed infra-
structure project was the H Street Extension, an $8.2 million project completed
on time and within budget.
A primary function of the Port is to ensure public access to the Bay and pro-
mote a vibrant and active waterfront. When completed, more than half of the
total project area will be dedicated to the public realm including: parks, open
space, habitat restoration/preservation, roadways, promenades, bikeways and
water areas. Powering the Arts

The Port of SanDiegos Integrated Planning Project has been recognized as
innovative, forward-thinking and inclusive, with awards from professional plan-

more than halfway through the five-year planning process, which has included
a robust public outreach process and publishing of a final vision titled One
Bay, Rich Diversity which outlines our vision and planning principles, and 2015
framework report that will help ensure SanDiego Bay is a central environ-
mental, economic and recreational resource, while reinforcing the differences
in character and culture in our five Port cities: ChulaVista, Coronado, Imperial

During this process, the Port remains open for business. Everything we have
achieved in Integrated Planning informs our ongoing planning for the multiple
development projects in the pipeline. And we have created a special policy to
guide how we review projects as the plan is finalized.

 Aerial view of future development sites in Santee Town Center.
Santee, California
Located just 18 miles (29 km) east of downtown SanDiego,
the Santee is a prosperous young suburban community
CITY O F SANTE E
of 56,700 population offering unique opportunities for
future growth.
WHAT MAKES SANTEE UNIQUE?
Soon after the citys incorporation in 1980, the city leaders
created a smart growth vision for the citys downtown
area. They adopted the Santee Town Center Specific Plan a
mixed-use master plan for 700 acres (283 ha) in the heart
of Santee integrating commercial, residential and civic uses.
They saw the need for bringing retail, business and residents
closer together in a community-based lifestyle.
Today, just over 30 years later, there remains over 100
acres (40.5 ha) owned by the County of SanDiego, slated
for future sale and development for office, commercial and
residential uses. This property is situated along the scenic
SanDiego River, in Santees downtown core. There is also a
13-acre (5.3 ha) downtown site slated for sale by the Santee
School District. These sites present a rare opportunity to
shape the downtown of a thriving young community in
Southern California.
22
The centerpiece of the Santee Town Center area is the Santee
Trolley Square shopping center, comprising 500,000 square
feet (46,450 m2) of restaurants and national chains stores
such as Target, Barnes and Noble, DSW, Old Navy and Bed
Bath & Beyond. There is also a power center anchored by
Costco, Walmart and Home Depot. The 5-mile (8 km) radius
market area has over 260,000 population
REGIONAL ACCESS
Accessibility is a key attribute for Santee, with direct freeway
access to three regional freeways, and quick access to the
Interstate 8 freeway traversing the region. From Santee,
it is only 20 minutes to downtown SanDiego, or to the
beaches of La Jolla, or the silicon valley businesses of
Sorrento Valley.
Santee is also served by the SanDiego Trolley, the regional
light-rail system that links the Santee Trolley Square shop-
ping center to SanDiego State University, Mission Valley,
downtown SanDiego and the SanDiego Convention Center.
Mixed uses, transit services and pedestrian orienta-
tion are just a few of the smart growth practices within
the Town Center area and throughout the community.
M I P I M 2017
 Santee is home to the world-renowned Santee Lakes
Reclamation Facility which produces 2 million gallons
(7,570,823 liters) of reclaimed water each day. Almost
half of this valuable resource is used to water Santees
parks, downtown fountains, tree-lined medians, and street
landscaping, through an expansive network of reclaimed
water pipes, and for sweeping the streets as well. The
seven man-made lakes that comprise the beautiful Santee
Lakes Recreation Preserve also use this precious resource
of reclaimed water. A state-of-the-art water purification
facility is underway which is slated to provide potable water
resources for future needs.

ECONOMIC SUSTAINABILITY
Santee has developed a vibrant and stable local economy
with a balance of retail, commercial, and residential uses
in the downtown core, complemented by industrial busi-
ness parks serving primarily advanced manufacturing and
machining businesses. The City recently invested over $24
million to upgrade Prospect Avenue industrial corridor. This
corridor is adjacent to one of the Countys busiest general
aviation airports, which is also undergoing redevelopment
and expansion.
In the past five years, HD Supply opened offices adjacent
to Santee Trolley Square, followed by SanDiego Christian
College, a 4-year private accredited college, and ParcOne
Santee, featuring 172 LEED-inspired apartments all walk-
ing distance to the SanDiego Trolley. Within that same block,
plans have been approved for a 112,500 square foot (10,452

DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL
Santee offers a development opportunity unparalleled in
the SanDiego region: Available land for development within
a downtown core, high-profile demographics, high tech
potential, and high quality of life.
In addition to future projects such as the Karl Strauss
Brewery, the multiplex theater, and additional transit-
oriented residential development, there remains over 100
acres (40.5 ha) of County-owned property in Santee Town
Center, which is slated for future sale and development for
office, commercial and residential uses. Additionally, there
is also a 13-acre (5.3 ha) downtown site slated for sale by
the Santee School District.
Santee has the potential to become a premier business
location in SanDiego County, providing the right environment
for high growth companies.
