HOUSING ELEMENT OF THE GENERAL PLAN Principal Planner Pass summarized the revised housing element of the Gen- eral Plan designed to bring Chula Vista's element into a state of con- sistency with the revised 1977 Housing Element Guidelines of the State Department of Housing and Community Development. He detailed features of the new plan as the greater commitment to affordable housing and for a commitment to SANDAG's Regional Fair Share Housing Allocation Program calling for an additional 482 assisted households through 1985. He added that the new plan places a greater stress on meeting low and moderate income housing needs through mobilehomes, mobilehome parks, mobilehome subdivisions, factory built and modular housings.

Director of Planning Peterson commented that the State has spent approximately five months in reviewing it and added that staff expects official approval in the near future.

COUNCIL COMMENTS MSUC (Scott/Campbell) that staff bring a resolution back to the Council stating that the City Council is concerned about the high rates that are being charged by San Diego Gas & Electric; that the Council is concerned about the future possibility of higher rates and the effect on the econ- omy and the citizens and feel that there should be a study not of the management practices, but alternatives to the public utility concept as is presently constituted in the State of California. Council Conference - 2 - February 25, 1982 In response to Councilman Campbell's comments, Councilman Scott added that the rate-making system has to be changed and a study of the rela- tionship and the operations and the interface between the Public Utili- ties Commission and San Diego Gas & Electric Company needs to be made.
