COMMISSION APPROVAL OF CON-
DITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR City Attorney Lindberg referred to his writ-
ESTABLISHMENT OF RECOVERY ten opinion to the City Council in which he
HOME FOR ALCOHOLICS AT discussed the legal problems raised by
270 "C" STREET Attorney William Bauer who is representing
the appellants.
In summary, Mr. Lindberg concluded that all
legal requirements for notification to the
residents concerning the proposed use were
met, and that ~h~ proposed use did comply
with the rsgula/ions and conditions as speci-
fied in the Code. In talking to the planners
who received the initial information, Mr.
Lindberg said he assumed that the facility
was not in the nature of a hospital or con-
valescent home and he is now surprised to
find that the City is dealing with a "health
care agency." Mr, Lindberg added that he is
City Council Meeting 2 June 25, 1974
not sure just what this health care agency
is in relation to hospitals and convales~
cent homes and therefore cannot give the
Council a legal opinion at this time.
Motion to continue It was moved by Councilman Scott, seconded
by Councilman Hobel and unanimously carried
that the public hearing be continued to the
meeting of July 9, 1974 when a full Council
is expected to be present,
Lee Raitt Mr. Raitt requested that the Council hear
the testimony of Mr. Giberson who is familiar
with the license of this operation.
City Attorney's opinion Mr. Lindberg stated that Mr. Giberson can
give his report, and that the City Clerk
be directed to transcribe his testimony so
that it will be made available to Councilman
Hyde.
Milton Giberson "I am the founder and director of the South
P.O. Box 85A Bay Pioneers. ~m also a member of the Execu-
Jamul, California tlve Board of the California Association of
Recovery Homes. I am also a ... consultant
with the Office of Alcohol Program Management
and the Health and Welfare Agency in Sacra-
mento. I was on the Standards Committee
that developed the standards and guidelines
for the alcoholic recovery homes in California.
It was stated that we are applying for a
Health Care license which is not true. We
are applying for a social rehabilitation
license. The Title 9 which is being used
as the licensing mechanism is a temporary
mechanism. It's a transitional license
until standards have been developed for a
social rehabilitation facility. It was agreed
by the Office of Alcohol Program Management
that we would use one of the residential care
liceh~es-to facilitate the licensing of re-
covery homes in the State while the standards
were being developed, and that's all that it is,
and at the present time, the Pioneers are not
writing a grant proposal for money because
we do not even qualify at this time. Our
lease -- we are on a month to month lease at
the present time -- and in order to qualify
for a grant proposal, we would have to have
a three-year lease with option. So, all of
the things that have been brought up are
not true, and it is not the fault of the
attorney who is investigating it. We're
having problems here in San Diego with the
licensing department. They don't understand
the procedure. I had to call -- I spoke with
the people in Sacramento Thursday and recom-
mended that someone from our office from
Alcohol Program Management come to San
Diego to explain the procedure here. They
were confused as to the mechanism being used."
Mayor Hamilton "hltat is~the procedure under which this so-
cial rehabilitation license c~n be issued?
Is there a State number for this?"
City Council Meeting 3 June 25, 1974
Mr. Giberson "There's a State number being developed and
I believe it ~ill be 28 r Title 28, We
have here in the Standards to give you some
idea of ~at ,.. very briefly.,."
Mayor Hamilton ~ould that be under the Welfare Department?"
Mr. Giberson UH~alth and Welfare Department. The Office
of Alcohol Program Management is under the
office of Health and Welfare. And it clearly
states in our guidelines, and also in the
certification checklist that I do with every
recovery home in the State that: 'Homes
should serve only persons who are able to
leave premises unassisted in cases of fire
or capable or self-directed response under
life-threatening situations, as recovery
homes can in no way adopt a dependent's
relationship with residents. Residents must
be fully capable of assuming responsibility
in experiencing consequences of their actions.
There is no care involved in the rehabilita-
tion of the alcoholic.'"

SOUTHBOUND LANES ON to the Council, discussed the congestion
1-5, 24th STREET TO occuring during the afternoon peak between
"E" STREET 24th Street and "E" Street. He stated he
discussed this matter with the State Division
of Highways with a request for a possible
widening as an interim measure to ease the
traffic congestion until the I-5/54 freeway
interchange is completed. The Highways
Division contacted the Coast Guard with this
request and were informed that to add this
l~ne would necessitate the same process as
is being required for the development of the
I-5/54 flood control project.
Mr. Cole requested the Council to authorize
the Mayor to communicate with our legislators
to take whatever steps are necessary to ef-
fect an approval to proceed with this vital
project
City Council Meeting 5 June 25, 1974
Report accepted It was ~oved by Councilm~n Scott, seconded
by Councilman ifobel and unanimously car-
ried that the report be accepted and a letter
he sent also to our Congressmen and the
Federal Department of Transportation,
REPORT ON PARTICIPATION IN Public Works Director Cole submitted the
FLOOD INSURANCE PROGRAM memo sent to the City Manager explaining
the provisions of the Flood Disaster Pro-
tection Act of 1973, and the letter dated
May 23, 1974 from the State Department of
Water Resources concerning amendments to
the National Flood Insurance Act.
Mr. Cole stated his staff expressed con-
cern in August 1973 over the use of out-
dated, small scale topographic maps in pre-
paring the original flood hazard maps of the
City. The Federal Insurance Administration
has requested up-to-date maps and informa-
tion in this regard, and has withdrawn the
flood hazard boundary maps previously pre-
pared for Chula Vista. This action temporarily
transfers the City from the regular program
to the emergency program.
Report accepted It was moved by Councilman Scott, seconded
by Councilman ltobel and unanimously carried
that the report be accepted.
REPORT ON STREET LIGHTING On the advice of the Attorney, Councilman
IN THE COUNTRY CLUB DRIVE Egdahl stated he is abstaining from discussion
AREA and vote on this matter since he lives in
the area.
. . : In a written report to the Council, Director
of Public Works Cole discussed the various
problems with the street lighting in this
area. He submitted three alternatives:
Alternate I calls for a total cost of $40,000
with City participation in the amount of
$13,300 (Gas Tax) and cost to property owner
at $215.32. Alternate II calls for a total
cost of $30,000, no City participation and
cost to the property owner at $263.16.
Alternate III calls for a total cost of
$36,000 with City participation at a cost
of $12,000 (General Funds) and cost to the
property owner at $193.55.
Mr. Cole recommended Alternate I. City
Manager Thomson recommended Alternate II
via the establishment of an improvement
district with the City covering future power
COSTS.
Wayne Smith Mr. Smith discussed the alternatives submitted
47 San Miguel Drive in the Public Works Director's report. He
stated that the alternatives did not cover
all the possibilities -- it is possible to
repair what is there, or put in lighting on
ornamental poles such as those existing on
Mankato and Whitney Circle~ ~r. Smith
declared that Country Club Villas is a
subdivision, formed in 1926, and he can't
understand why this subdivision is not placed
in the 5amc category as any new subdivision.
City Council Meeting 6 June 25, 1974
The property owners at that time must have
paid for these improvements the same as the
property owners in new subdivisions pay
now. It should be the City's responsibility
to maintain the lights.
Discussion Discussion followed in which Mr. Cole ex-
plained that the lights in this area are sub-
standard; the policy concerning street
lighting in the City, the cost and installa-
tion of a conduit, funds which can be obtained
from Gas Tax if ~afety lighting is replaced,
and the meeting held with the residents
approximately four years ago.
Meeting to be held It was moved by Councilman Scott and seconded
by Mayor Hamilton that a meeting be held
with the people and the three alternatives
presented to them, and the staff report back
to the City Council.
Discussion of motion Mr, Cole indicated it would take approximately
four to six weeks for the report to be brought
back to the Council, since each and every
resident's name and address must be verified
for notification of the meeting.

deliver the notices to each resident.

have been $600.78.
Councilman Hobel spoke against City partici-
pation in this cost, stating it would be
