Items moved up on agenda It was moved by Mayor Hamilton, seconded by Councilman Egdahl and unanimously carried that the following items be moved up on the agenda (in the following order): 7. Report on commercial zoning at Otay Lakes Road and "H" Street 11. Report on Planning Commission action for an International Airport at Brown Field 26. Report on SDG&E request for sewer capacity right in Metro Sewer System 27. Reconsideration of South Bay Judicial District REPORT ON COMMERCIAL ZONING On April 23, 1974, the City Council placed a IN THE VICINITY OF OTAY moratorium on the issuance of building permits LAKES ROAD AND "H" STREET on 19 acres of commercial property located at the intersection of Otay Lakes Road and "H" Street. The moratorium expires on July 2, 1974 and was adopted to give the Planning staff the opportunity to study the surround- ing area and determine the projected need for neighborhood shopping facilities. Director of Planning Peterson recommended that (1) the moratorium be lifted and the develop- ment of a neighborhood shopping center on the 8-acre property at the corner of Otay Lakes Road and "H" Street be permitted; (2) the moratorium on the Il-acre parcel be extended to September 11, 1974 and referred to the Planning Commission for consideration of rezoning it to P-C utilizing the guide- lines as delineated in the Planning Director's written report to the Council; (3) refer to the Planning Commission the question of proper zoning on the C-N zone at Otay Lakes Road and Gotham Street with the suggestion that the Commission consider'R-3-G zoning on the undeveloped portion. Mr. Peterson submitted a plat noting the zoning in the area: 8-acre parcel zoned P-C and the northerly il-acre parcel zoned C-T. The Planning Commission approved the Environmental Impact Report on the 8~acre parcel for a shop- ping center; the staff feels this is a pre- ferred location in terms of accessibility. The staff ha~ been working with the developer on the refinement of a development plan and has expressed some dissatisfaction concerning building locations and vehicle access. The City Council Meeting 3 June 18, 1974 staff suggested that the developer go into a joint venture with the owners of the il-acre property to the north for th~ use of some portion of that property for commercial purposes, Michael Thorsnes Mr. Thorsnes: stated he is representing the Higgs, Fletcher & Mack owners of the property (Il-acre parcel). Mr. 1700 Home Tower Building Thorsnes~discussed the staff report which San Diego indicated that the C-T zone on this property was not appropriate, He declared that the area is adjacent to a thoroughfare and there- fore would fall into uses designed for thor- oughfare traffic, He remarked that he has tried to communicate with the owners of the 8-acre parcel on several occasions but has had no response. Mr. Thorsnes then presented several letters of intent which he stated supported their position that there is a market on which to warrant commercial zoning on their property. He added that there has to be a showing of emergency on which to impose a moratorium and this has not been the case here. City Attorney's opinion Mr. Lindberg clarified the following points: (1) the moratorium was imposed within the limitations set by the State Planning Act; (2) the P-C zone is not a "no" zone -- it is a zone that indicates certain uses allowed in an ~ in accordance with a General Plan which is then followed by a Precise Plan. Planning Director's comments Mr. Peterson commented that the records show that 10 years ago, Mr. Norman, owner of this property, told the Council he was ready to develop "right now." Director Peterson added that if his recommendations wer~ accepted, he would anticipate that the Planning Commis- sion would recommend B-C zoning on the il-acre parcel and he would then get together with the owners of the 8-acre parcel and with Mr. Norman and Mr. Ashwil] to work out a plan for the two properties that would combine some commercial uses, some C-T, and multiple family uses. Motion to accept recommendations It was moved by Councilman Egdahl and seconded by Councilman Hyde that the recommendations of the staff be accepted. Council discussion Councilman Scott stated that the problem that needs to be resolved first is the amount of commercial development needed in that area -- determine this first and zone it to that -- then let a plan be developed on that property. Councilman Scott agreed with Councilman Egdahl that the entire property should be put into the P-C zone and treated as one package. Council discussion ensued as to the merits of lifting the moratorium on one parcel and con- tinuing it on the other~ Amendment to motion Councilman EgdahI amended the motion to delete #] on the ~taff recommendations: "Lift the moratorium and permit the development of a neighborhood shopping center on the g-acre City Council Meeting 4 June 18, 1974 property located at the corner of 0ray Lakes Road and I~H[ Street,u This is to be continued in accordance ~th recommendation #2 (extend moratorium to September 11, 1974). Motion carried The motion carried by the following vote, to~witl AYESI Councilmen Egdahl, Scott, Hobel, Hyde Noes; Mayor Hamilton Absentl None Motion for staff direction It was moved by Councilman Hyde, seconded by Councilman Hobel and unanimously carried that the staff be directed to work with both parties involved in an active fashion, to the extent appropriate, to try to get this thing resolved before the September hearing. Councilman Hobel asked that the motion include having the staff come back in thirty days with an interim report. Councilman Hyde included this statement in his motion; Councilman Hobel agreed to the second and the motion carried unanimously. REPORT ON PLANNING CO~qlSSION On June 4, 1974, the City Council referred ACTION FOR PROPOSAL FOR AN this proposal to the Environmental Control INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT IN ~0mm{ss{~n and the Planning Commission for THE VICINITY OF BROWN FIELD report and recommendation. Both Commissions recommended that the Council oppose the proposal. Council discussion Mayor Hamilton noted the SANPAT public hearing which will be held at Montgomery High School on June 24, 1974. Councilman Hobel felt it was premature for this Council to take any action on this pro- posal prior to the public hearings. Speaking in opposition Speaking in opposition to the proposal were: Peter Watry, 81 Second Avenue; Reva Lynch, 626 Date Avenue; Kathryn Moore, 1134 Tobias Drive; Eugene Coleman, 1670 Gotham Street; Clinton Owen, 242 Sea Vale Street. Their reasons were: (1) impact it would have on Chula Vista and surrounding communities; (2) loss of quality of life enjoyed in this City; (3) air pollution; (4) noise factor; (5) traffic generation; (6) San Diego would reap the finan- cial benefits and Chula Vista would just get increased housing; (7) question of what will happen to Lindberg Field if this proposal is accepted; (8) population increase will re- suit in a demand for more public services such as power, water, streets, etc.; (9) increase the hazards of the safety and health factors of the community. Ernest Arnold, 897 Beech Street, commented that he attended the public hearing in Carlsbad and urged anyone planning to attend the meeting on the 24th to get there early, pick up the information newsletter printed by CPO and study the alternative layouts. Mr, Arnold urged the Council to take no action on this matter until after July 15 (after public hearings are held). City Council Meeting 5 June 18, 1974 Motion to sustain Commissions~ It was moved by Councilman Egdahl and recommendations seconded by Councilman Scott that the Council sustain the findings of the Environ- mental Control Commission and the Planning Commission and Voice its concerns and ob- jections regarding the considerations of the airport site (at the Brown Field loca- tion). Findings to be included Mayor Hamilton asked that the findings of the Planning Commission and the Environmental Control Commission be read into the record of the public hearing (June 24) and also the staff report, particularly with its findings. Councilman Egdahl included this in his mo- tion; Councilman Scott accepted the second. Discussion of motion In answer to Councilman Hobel's question, Director of Planning Peterson explained that most of the research done in his report came from information obtained from CPO, along with some staff independent research. Substitute motion It was moved by Councilman Hyde that this Council go on record, on the basis of the information it has at the present time, opposing the idea of the creation of a national airport in the San Diego Metro- politan area. No second to motion The motion died for lack of second. Councilman Hobel remarked that as a member of the regional body, it would be a courtesy to withhold the strong position that this motion implies. There isn't another city that has taken a position -- all are willing to wait until after the public hearings. Further discussion Further discussions were held concerning the position of the Council in this matter. Councilman Hyde indicated he would like to see the staff position strengthened. No- where in the report is the statement that San Diego County is faced with acute urban growth and that an intonational airport will grossly &~gravat~ that situation. Councilman Hyde added that he would like to see this stated as a basis for the Council's opinion. Motion carried The motion, as amended, (sustain recommenda- tions of Planning and Environmental Control Commissions and include staff report at public hearing) carried by the following vote, to-wit: AYES: Councilmen Egdahl, Scott, Hamilton, Hyde Noes: Councilman Hbbel Absentl None Staff to prepare r~port and Mayor Hamilton directed the City Manager to represent City at public hearing draft the City's position and that he select someone he feels would be most effective in presenting the viewpoint of Chula Vista at the public hearing to be held on the 24th of June. City Council Meeting 6 June 18, 1974 REPORT ON SAN DIEGO GAS City Atto~ne~ Lindherg requested that the & ELECTRIC COMPANY'S matter be held over for one week. REQUEST FOR SEWER CAPACITY RIGHT IN METRO SEWER SYSTEM Item continued It was moved by Councilman Hobel, seconded by Councilman Scott and unanimously carried that the report be continued for one week. RECONSIDERATION OF SOUTH City Attorney Lindberg explained the history BAY JUDICIAL DISTRICT of this proposal, This matter has been re- opened because representatives of the San Diego County Bar Association and from the Municipal Court Bench indicated that they feel the best way to achieve this is not to proceed along the lines of Assemblyman Deddeh~s Bill in the creation of a new South Bay Judicial District and a Constitutional Amendment which would allow the inclusion of the San Ysidro area in such a district, but rather to push forward with the establish- ment of appropriate facilities and the funding of such. Mr. Lindberg stated it was his feeling that unless there can be assurances of the crea- tion of the facilities here, he would prefer that we stay within the framework of the San Diego Judicial District. Councilman Egdahl's opinion Councilman Egdahl discussed the various rea- sons for remaining the San Diego District. Under the Deddeh Bill, the problem of pro- viding a courtroom facility would still be prevalent. Council discussion Councilman Scott commented that when this was first brought up seven or eight years ago, the Council asked for written assurances that there would be full-time Court facilities in the South Bay; however, the assurances were not given, but promises were made by the San Diego District. Councilman Egdahl remarked that the City would not get these written assurances as it was a political decision. He felt the Council should urge the Board of Supervisors to provide these facilities in the South BBy, and that as a temporary measure, the Board of Sup~r~isor~ lease a facility in the South Bay (possibly the post office building) and make use of this building as a South Bay Court facility for three judges and ~nci]larK facilities. Also, that the Board of Supervisors pursue the construction of a permanent facility somewhere in the South Bay. John McGuane Attorney McGuane, representing the South Bay Acacia Drive, Bonita Bar Association, spoke in support of Assem- blyman Deddeh's Bill, This Bill has passed by a large majority of the Assembly and is now in the ,~sat~ and assured of passage. The Constitutional Amendment has also passed the Assembly and on its way to passage in the Senate, Mr. McGuane spoke of the vantages of having the District and noted City Council Meeting 7 June 18, 1974 that the Sa~ D~ego Bar A~ociation did not oppose the Deddeh Bill~ A letter came out ove~ the signature of the ~resident of the Association~ but tki$ did not reflect the action o£ the Board of Directors. Robert Steiner Mr, Steiner spoke in favor of Councilman 55 "I" Street Egdahl% motion and in opposition to Assembly- Chula Vista man Deddeh~s Bill. He commented that anyone has a right to have his case tried at the District seat and therefore all major criminal and civil trials are held there. Mr. Steiner explained that he has been involved in court reorganization and reform for many years, and he can say, without any contradiction, that San Diego has the finest Clerk's office in the State and the most innovative Court Bench in the State. As a taxpayer, Mr. Steiner spoke of the costs involved in staff- ing a court facility in this area. Paul Legler Mr. Legler, representing the Legislative Chamber of Commerce Committee of the Chamber, reported that the County Board of Supervisors has endorsed Deddeh's Bill in total. The Deddeh Bill authorizes three judges down here, and with this Bill, South Bay stands a better chance of getting a court facility instead of waiting for the "whim" of the San Diego Judicial Council. Council position reaffirmed It was moved by Councilman Scott and seconded by Councilman Hyde that the Council reaffirm its position taken previously in supporting the Deddeh Bill. Motion carried The motion carried by the following vote, to-wit: AYES: Councilmen Scott, Hobel, Hamilton, Hyde Noes: Councilman Egdahl Absent: None RECESS A recess was called at 9:07 p.m. and the meeting reconvened at 9:24 p.m. PUBLIC HEARING A letter was sent to the Council from Mr. CONSIDERATION OF Dennis L.

The Planning Commission recommended approval of the rezoning of this property to R-l-H; Director of Planning Peterson concurred, further recommending the addition of the "P" Precise Plan Modifying District, Public hearing O~ened This being the time and place as advertised, Mayor Hamilton opened the public hearing. J. R. Shattuck Mr. Shattuck noted that in 1972, under a 6150 Mission Gorge Road single family residential development, he San Diego proposed construction of 171 lots. ~?s present plan proposes 114 lots even though the present ordinance allows them 125 lots. There may be some land trades with the Gersten property that will permit East "J" Street to go through and for this development to go forward. Public hea?ing closed The~e being no further comments, either for or against, the hearing was declared closed. ORDINANCE NO. 1539 ~ It was moved by Councilman Hobel that this AMENDING ZONING ORDINANCE ordinance be placed on first reading and that TO CHANGE ZONE ON 40 ACRES reading of the text be waived by unanimous OF PROPERTY LOCATED AT THE consent.

PUBLIC HEARING - Director of planning peterson submitted a CONSIDERATION OF APPEAL plat explaining that on May 8, 1974, the OF CAROL S. SMITH OF Planning Commission approved a conditional PLANNING COMMISSION'S use permit to construct and operate a DECISION APPROVING A recovery home for alcoholics and provide a CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT meeting place for members of Alcoholics FOR ESTABLISHMENT OF A Anonymous on a portion of a two-acre parcel RECOVERY HOME AND MEETING located at 270 "C" Street, an R-1 zone. PLACE FOR ALCOHOLICS AT 270 "C" STREET IN THE R-1 ZONE City CeunciI Meeting 9 June 18, 1974 Mrs. Carol S, Smith has appealed the decision stating (i1) the Planning Commission did not find the existence of ail facts as required bM the Code; (2) the Environmental Review Committee was biased in failing to indicate numerous negative factors; (3) the Environ- mental Review Committee failed to note that the project would have an adverse effect upon the residents and the value of their properties, increase in traffic, inadequate sidewalks, and unusual operating house. Mr. Peterson added that the Planning Commission based its action on the fact that the site is isolated from nearby properties because it is below the grade of "C" Street and Sea Vale. In its present location, this use has presented no problems to the surrounding area. Street improvements In answer to Councilman Scott's inquiry, Mr. Peterson explained that the applicant would have to dedicate and improve it~ half of the street. Director of Public Works Cole indicated that although "C" Street is a half-street, there would be no capacity problem as far as traffic was c~rtcerned. Public hearing opened This being the time and place as advertised, Mayor Hamilton opened the public hearing. William Bauer, Attorney Mr. Bauer stated he was representing 33 property owners who are opposing this use in this location. He stated (1) there is an invasion of R-1 and it is contrary to the City's General Plan; (2) the facility will house a large number of people on a full-time basis, (3) only 40 parking spaces are pro- vided; however a check on their other facility last Saturday evening revealed 79 cars, 1 bus and 1 motorcycle at 8:15 p.m. Mr. Bauer pre- sented pictures to the Council showing various views of the property. He added that (4) it would prove hazardous to children that play in this area; (5) the area is already being used by the adjacent apartment residents to park their vehicles; (6) the Environmental Impact Report notice was posted on a tele- phone pole on the property and this was a violation of the due process of law as the property owners were not individually noti- fied; (7) this facility is in the process of being licensed as a health care facility. Mr. Bauer stated that the facility must be constructed on a major artery and not a residential street - it violates Section 33901 of the City Code which requires such a facility to go rmacollector~treet, This section also requires a six-foot fence where it adjoins adjacent property. Mr. Bauer further noted the lack of findings made by the Planning Commission as required by the City Code. Lee Raitt Mr, Raitt commented that the State does plan 443 "D" Street to license all recovery homes in the State of City Council Meeting 10 June 18, 1974 California but not as mental health care centers. He discussed the site layout, stating that the building would be moved eighty feet westerly in order to provide parking on both sides. Mr. Raitt noted the egress and ingress and commented that this is primarily a commercial street and not a residential one -- and the hours of operation would not conflict with those of the Department of Motor Vehicles. The building is twelve feet below C Street. There are 44 parking spaces provided with sufficient land available for additional spaces when needed. In answer to Councilman Hyde's query, Mr. Raitt stated it would not be feasible to put in a wall around the property because of the topography. Petitions noted City Clerk Fulasz noted the petition of pro- test received by the Planning Commission con- taining 68 signatures and a petition favoring the project containing 11 signatures. Public hearing closed There being no further comments, either for or against, the hearing was declared closed. Council discussion Council discussion followed as to the need for additional parking spaces and the statements made by the Attorney indicating violations of the City Code. City Attorney Lindberg stated that the City did follow due process in the Environmental Impact Report notification and a written notice of the public hearing to all residents within 300 feet of this proposal. He asked for an opportunity to review the comments made by Mr. Bauer. Motion to continue It was moved by Councilman Scott and seconded by Councilman Hobel that the public hearing be reopened and continued for one week. Motion carried The motion carried by the following vote, to-wit: AYES: Councilmen Scott, Hobel, Hyde, Egdahl Noes: Mayor Hamilton Absent: None PUBLIC HEARING ~ It was moved by Mayor Hamilton, seconded by CONSIDERATION OF ADOPTION Councilman Hyde and unanimously carried that OF THE BUDGET OF THE CITY an Executive Session be called for personnel OF CHULA VISTA FOR THE reasons. FISCAL YEAR 1974-75 The Council recessed to Executive Session at 10:19 p.m. and the meeting reconvened at 10:40 p.m. Public bearing opened This being the time and place as advertised, Mayor }~ilton opened the public hearing, stating that testimony will be heard on ail the resolutions pertaining to this matter. City Council Meeting 11 June 18, 1974 Donald Byrum Mr, Byrum asked if the Council ~ould be con- Firefighters President, sidering Fire Department manning. Local 2180 Budget items City Manager Thomson noted that funds have been encumbered for the new library in the Capital Improvement Program. The budget does not provide for any funds for an Industrial Task Force as proposed by Councilman Hobel. Mr. Thomson referred to a report on the bus service (next agenda item) for which $3,580 would have to be added to the budget for Sunday bus service, if this meets with Council approval. Firefighters' proposal City Manager Thomson discussed the proposal to add five members to the Department. It is a policy regarding type and level of service and he recomraended that the budget be retained, as is, on the basis of cost benefits. In terms of their proposal for an insurance- service office, because of the allegiance this office would have to corporate insurance com- panies, this would not be something the City Manager would recommend. The resolution for constant manning has policy overtones and is something that should be examined. Mr. Thomson asked the Council to direct the staff to investigate this matter. As to the 56 hour work week, the Fair Labor Standard Act provides for a minimum arrangement for work week hours. The work week is subject to the Meet and Confer process which has just been completed and is now before the Council for action. The Memorandum of Understanding could have included these proposals. This matter can be referred to the Fair Labor Standards Act in terms of response and future Meet and Confer sessions. City Manager Thomson asked the Council to direct him to investigate ways to minimize the possi- bility of injuries which the Firefighters spoke to. Further, the staff will do every- thing possible to accelerate the amount of time spent on training. Motion to approve requests It was moved by Councilman Hobel, seconded by Councilman ~klyde and unanimously carried that the requests of the City Manager be accepted. Mr. Thomson stated he can complete this investi- gation and report by September 1, 1974. Mr. Byrum asked that the Union be involved in the discussions, and he personally would also like to work with the staff on this. Mr. ~omaon said he would meet with the Union -- that there will be plenty of consultation. REPORT ON PROPOSAL FOR Assistant to the City Manager Wittenberg sub- FISCAL YEAR 1974-75 mitted a written report explaining that the INTRA-CITY BUS SERVICE contract with Aztec Bus Lines expires on June 30, 1974. · City Council Meeting 12 June 18, 1974 If the Sunday bus service is approved~ $3,573 mu~t be added to Activity 1720, Account 5271 of tke budget, Mr. Wittenberg recommended that the current level of intra~£ity bus service be maintained and that the proposal of Aztec Bus Lines be accepted. The proposal calls for 307 opera- ting days at $446 per day or a total of $136,922 (825 miles per day or a total of 253,275 miles @ .54 per mile). The net cost to the City would be Report accepted ~t w:sX~n~ed by Councilman Egdahl, seconded by Councilman Scott and unanimously carried that the report and recommendations be accepted and a resolution be brought back approving the new agreement with Aztec Bus Lines. INDUSTRIAL TASK FORCE Councilman Hobel explained his proposal for the Task Force ($21,500). He noted this was not a Mayor's salary increase -- it was a fund which would reimburse the Mayor for per diem and travel expenses. Councilman Hobel noted the number of corporate headquarters moving to the west coast and felt the City of Chula Vista could get some of them to locate here. Council discussion Councilman Scott referred to the findings of the Industrial Committee some time ago in which they concluded that Chula Vista did not have any place to put industry. He questioned where the industries were going to be located, what are the goals, what type of industry is to be pursued, what type of commercial, what type of program? Councilman Scott said he felt the program had merit but he would like to get more info~taatio~ on it. He added he would also like more specifies on the dollar amounts. Motion to include in budget It was moved by Councilman Egdahl, seconded by Councilman Scott and unanimously carried that the dollar amount of Councilman Hobel's proposal be included in the budget, and that prior to the use of those funds, a program be developed along with the material in order that the committee can make a proper presenta- tion of the City on their trips. Councilman Egdahl explained his motion by stating it would give the Council time to clarify and resolve some of the issues re- garding proper location of the industries. If the Council cannot come to some agreement on that, then the plan will not be implemented. Community Promotions Account City Manager Thomson reported that this would go under the Community Promotions budget.
