` ITEM TITLE Ordinance��7�3 - Amending the Chula Vista Municipal Code
Relating to the Provision of Interim School
Facilities
SUBMITTED BY City Attorney
ITEM EXPLANATION (4/5TH'S VOTE REQUIRED YES� NO_)
At the direction of the City Council and in accordance� with new provisions
of the State Subdivision Map Act, an ordinance was prepared providing for
the collection of land or fees to provide an interim solution to school
needs in specified attendance areaswhere overcrowded conditions are
clearly demonstrated .
The ordinance was reviewed by representatives of the two school districts
at a meeting held in the City Attorney' s office. The ordinance was deemed
satisfactory wi.th two exceptions , i .e . , the categorical exemption of one
' single-family dwelling and the trust arrangement and refund provisions
for the land or fees held by the City . These changes were made removing
the categorical exemption and providing for the immediate transfer of
land or fees to the respective school districts; and in the event of the
cancellation of a particular project, if the developer requests , a refund
from the school districts may be made . The Board of Trustees can autho-
' rize such a refund. The City Attorney concurs with the changes as requested
since it is believed that the less direct involvement of the City in such
handling of funds or land, the better the interests of the City.
The ordinance is , therefore, ready for adoption and would become effective
upon first reading as an interim ordinance and later adopted in the normal
manner . The Council may act upon it at the meeting of 1/3/78 or they may
choose to continue the matter to the joint meeting held with the school
district on 1/5/78 as a symbolic gesture of the long term cooperation that
has existed between the City and the school districts . Although only the
City School District will be represented at the meeting to discuss the
Charter changes , representatives of the Sweetwater Union School District
could also be invited to attend relative to the school fee ordinance .
