to 850 square feet, or shall have a gross floor area less than the primary single family
dwelling whichever is less, and may be attached or detached above or behind a main
or primary single-family dwelling or accessory structure on the same lot.
2. The accessory second dwelling unit must accompany a main or primary dwelling unit
on an A, R-E, R-l or P-C zoned single-family lot. Accessory second dwelling units
are precluded from R-2 and R-3 zoned lots.

19.14.030.
d. A lot shall be a minimum 5,000-square feet in size to add an accessory second

Page 3
e. The lot coverage including an accessory second dwelling unit shall not exceed
50 percent. Lots in planned communities that are already permitted to exceed
50 percent in lot coverage by their Sectional Planning Area General

second unit can be incorporated within the existing permitted lot coverage. .
f. Accessory second dwelling units shall be provided with one standard sized
parking space for studio, one-bedroom, or two-bedroom units; or two standard
sized parking spaces for units with three or more bedrooms. Said parking is in

dwelling unit. Lots having accessory second dwelling units must take access
from a public street, alley or a recorded access easement.

sewer service lateral connections that serve the main or primary dwelling unit.
A separate electric meter and address may be provided for the accessory
second unit.
h. Accessory second dwellings shall be designed to be consistent in architectural
style with the main house and compatible with surrounding residential
properties. The Design Review Committee shall review disputes about design

4/5THS VOTE: YESDNO0
BACKGROUND
On November 4, 2000, the City Council approved the Storefront Renovation Program to encourage
private sector investment in building facades in a target area of the Town Centre I Redevelopment
Project Area. The program provides rebates, design and technical assistance to eligible projects. At
the program's inception it was hoped to have an annual reception to recognize participants who
had invested in projects. However due to the newness of the program it has taken some time to
"sell" the concept and to complete enough projects to make such a reception meaningful. Staff
believes that a reception held now will not only recognize the early participants in the program but
encourage others to participate as well.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the resolution approving the closure of Davidson
Street from Third Avenue west to the alley behind the Third Avenue storefronts on February 18
from 4 - 8 p.m. for the recognition of participants in the Storefront Renovation Program.
BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION
Not opplicable.
DISCUSSION
Recently the Storefront Renovation Program joined with the San Diego Youth Theater and
properly owner Clark Dennison to create a mural, new signage and awnings, and building
repairs at the Theater's storefront at the northwest corner of Third Ave and Davidson Street. The
--

Program is also working with the owners of a planned restaurant/lounge at the southwest corner
of Third Avenue and Davidson Streets. To commemorate the completion of the second mural in
Town Centre I, the Downtown Business Association (DBA) announced its intention to hold it
quarterly "mixer" at the Junior Theater on February 18. Seeing an opportunity to highlight the
program and thank Mr. Dennison and other Storefront Renovation Program participonts, City
staff requested to join with the DBA and co-host the event as both a mixer and Storefront
Renovation Program Reception and Recognition.
The street closure is being requested because it will afford guests to the event safety to mingle on
Davidson Street, where the mural is. A "token" in recognition of participation in the program will
be presented to participants during the event and recognition will also be given to those currently
completing projects with the progrom. A complete report on Storefront Renovation Program
proiects to date will be provided in written form at the event, along with marketing brochures
encouraging new participants. Mayor Padilla has been requested to speak.
FISCAL IMPACT
Minor expenses (less than $1000) for this recognition program will be covered by the Storefront
Renovation Program.

BACKGROUND
The Chula Vista City Council has established a policy to attract a first-rate college or university to
a 1247 -acre site that has been set-aside for this purpose within the Otay Ranch area of the City's
General Plan. The site includes 557 developable acres within the westerly "main campus"
portion, and 93.5 developable acres within the "Otay lakes campus" portion to the east,
adjacent to lower Otay Reservoir - for a total of 650 developable acres. In addition, 552 acres
are designated for open space preserve and 46 acres are designated for recreational use. As
part of the City's Economic Development Strategy, the City has identified "educational excellence"
as one of its top 12 goals, including the development of a new, full-service campus, which
contributes to the community's prestige, intellectual capital and supports other economic
development goals.
In November 2003, the City Council/Staff University Working Group finalized the process of
interviewing qualified candidates to assist with the strategic planning process, including the
development of the City's Mission Statement, preparing a conceptual master plan, identifying
model institutions that are compatible with the City's established values, and facilitating potential
partnerships. As a result of this process, the City Council/Staff University Warking Group has
selected a team of consultants lead by STRATUS.
Because of the STRATUS teams' extensive experience in higher education planning and
administration (35 years), staff is very excited to recommend approval of the resolution and move
forward with STRATUS for the development of a higher educotion recruitment strategy.

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council approve the resolution granting STRATUS, a division of
the JCM Group for the development of 0 Higher Education Recruitment Strategy and
appropriating $270,050 from the available fund balance of the General Fund from fiscal year
2003-04.
BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION
Not applicable.
DISCUSSION
As the City continues to focus its efforts on a Higher Education Recruitment Strategy, it has
become necessary to retain the expert services of STRATUS a division of JCM Group, to develop a
comprehensive strategy that will lead to the achievement of goal number four of the City Council
adopted Economic Development Strategy (Promote Educotional Excellence ond Training
Programs to Ensure a Qualified Workforce).
As port of the selection process, Community Development ond Planning Department staff met
with the four selected groups listed below. While they represented a broad range of expertise
related to campus planning and development, the first two groups specialize in physical master
planning and the latter two have a greater experience with academic program planning and new
campus start-ups.
1. Rod Rose and Sal Rinella, STRATUS Division of JCM Group, Los Angeles
2. Armando Arias and David Leveille, Academic Dean at CSU Monterey Bay, and former
Assist. Dir. Of California Post Secondary Education Commission (CPEC) respectively
3. Woody Tescher and Mark Horn, EIP, Los Angeles
4. Ira Fink, Ira Fink & Associates, Berkeley
Ayers/Saint/Gross was eliminated from consideration based upon a conflict of interest due to
their being hired by Otay Land, a university site landowner.
STRATUS helps organizations take advantage of the opportunity created by innovative new
projects - the opportunity to make the entire organization more effective, distinctive, and
competitive. Management scientists refer to this process as strategic positioning. STRATUS helps
organizations identify their opportunities and strengths, create a compelling vision, and provide
them with the practical strategies, management tools, and resources to create and sustain a
competitive advantage. Since 1983, leaders in government, education, health care and private
industry have turned to The JCM Group to develop facilities that make better sense. JCM has
helped them plan and implement every aspect of their organizational and capital improvement
needs, from strategic planning and organizational development to total program and
construction management.

MEETING DATE: 02/03/04
Community Development and Planning Department staffs also reviewed alternative land use
plans with the consultants. As the process has advanced, a common concept that has emerged is
the combination of the University and the Regional Technology Park lands to allow the maximum
flexibility of uses and designs.
STRATUS has provided a scope of work with an estimated cost of $270,050 of which the monies
have been identified from the available fund balance of the General Fund from fiscal year 2003-
04 for the development of a Higher Education Recruitment Strategy.
It is anticipated that the City will benefit greatly from the Higher Education Recruitment Strategy.
The scope includes, but is not limited to:
. Reviewing Background Materials
. Reviewing General Plan land Use Options ond Evaluating Implications for the
Development of the Higher Education Site ond Regional Technology Park

development of the proposed Higher Education site and technology park. Factors to be considered will
include:
. Land use designations (type, density/intensity. other) including those for non-higher education uses
such as conunercial and residential uses.
. Net land area designated exclusively for Higher Education and related purposes.
. Lands designated for "spin-off' or "supporting uses." include Research and Development uses.
. Development capacity of the East/Otay Ranch planning sub-area and comparison of this with
SANDAG's regional growth and housing needs forecasts.
. Anticipated mix of housing units (single family detached, attached, multi-family, etc.) and, if
available, housing prices.
. Amenities proposed for the East/Otay Ranch planning sub-area that may be used to attract the
development of a higher education facility (parks, open spaces, cultural, "livable neighborhoods,"
transit-oriented development, etc.).
. Transportation Plan, Level of Service standards, and planned improvements (how will the site be
accessed?): automobile, public transit, bicycle, pedestrian, truck, other.
. Infrastructure Plans (how will the site be served?)
Based on the review of the infonnation provided by staff, we will fonnulate a comparative description of the
implications of the land use alternatives. This may consider such factors as:
. Sufficiency ofthe land area to acconunodate a range of higher education facilities.
. Sufficiency ofthe housing supply to acconunodate students, faculty, staff. and other populations
generated by the development of a higher education institution. (Detennined by comparing the sub-
area's housing capacity with regional growth forecasts. ¡fthe housing capacity matches regional
growth forecasts, there may be insufficient housing to meet the needs of a higher education facility).
. Compatibility of adjoining land uses with a higher education facility.
. Accommodation of uses within the planning sub-area and adjacent to the site that Can capitalize
upon the presence of an adjoining higher education facility, such as a research and development
park.
. Ability to acconunodate transportation access needs for a higher education facility.
. Ability to provide infTastructure and public services to support the needs of a higher education
facility.
. Presence of any use. design characteristic, or other attributes that may uniquely benefit the attraction
of a higher education facility.
4. Joint City Council and Planning Commission Workshop on General Plan Land Use Options
The Consultants will provide Staff with preliminary implications of the three candidate General Plan land
uses alternatives on the development of a higher education facility and technology park at the proposed Otay
Ranch site for presentation at the Joint City Council/Planning Commission workshop. Consultants will be

available as a resource to the meeting to render expert opinion on higher education and campus planning and
development.
The detailed evaluation will be conducted during the "Testing Phase" of the General Plan Update process,
following approval by the City Council of the proposed alternatives.
5. Stakeholder Interviews
Consultants will conduct up to forty (40) interviews with key conununity stakeholders to understand their
perspective on the development of higher education institution and technology park on the Otay Ranch site,
as well as perceptions of critical obstacles and issues associated with such development. Questions will be
posed regarding a diversity of topics, and may address the type(s) of institution(s) to be attracted, its
physical "fit" with surrounding land uses (an "island" or integrated development), the character and urban
fonn of the site's physical development, desired induced economic development benefits for the conununity
(e.g., incubator or research and development industries), role of the institution in fostering conununity
culture, social well-being, and activity, and other related topics.
The input will be reviewed for its implications in defining the higher education models to be considered and
physical site planning parameters. Following the interview process Consultants will work with Staff to
establish a Steering Committee comprised of existing Working Group members supplemented by key
stakeholders identified through the interviews.
6. Site Analysis
Consultants will compile baseline data for the designated Otay Ranch site ITom available reports, studies,
and other sources and evaluated for its implications for the development of a higher education facility and
technology park. Representative data, as available, will include:
. Existing land uses on the site and adjoining properties
. Entitled and planned land uses on adjoining properties
. Existing policies and regnlations that may affect the development of the site (including the MSHCP)
. Plant and animal habitats, including those that are protected through the MSHCP and conservation
and open space agreements
. Topography
. Hydrology and drainage patterns
. Geologic and soil constraints/limitations (faulting, landslide, liquefaction, etc.)
. Existing noise sources that may impact the site
. Wildfire hazards
. Existing and proposed circulation network (automobile, truck, public transit, bicycle, pedestrian,
equestrian, other)

One to three maps will be prepared. using traditional techniques rather than GIS that document development
constraints based on the preceding research. Using this infonnation, development "envelope" prototypes
will be fonnulated that indicate the possible location of buildings and the resulting development capacity of
the site will be calculated. This will be prepared in collaboration with BMS Design Group.
7. Vision, Guiding Principles, and Interconnected Themes
Fonnulation ofthe Vision, Guiding Principles, and Interconnected Themes for the higher education
institution and technology park will be a collaborative process between Consultants and the Steering
Committee. Consultants will provide input regarding: strategic links both internally and externally to the
City; potential programs and services to be provided; and economic and physical development of the site
and surrounding community, particularly focusing on policy components that are related to the City's
General Plan. This may address:
. Functional role of the higher education facility
. Functional role of the regional technology park
. Site development opportunities/constraints
. Economic development opportunities
. Land use inter-relationships
. Physical fonD and character
. Sustainability
. Community amenities

8. Identify Structural Models
Consultants will conduct research to identify 2-3 campus/technology park models consistent with the City's
vision and goals, and the vision, guiding principles and interconnected themes set forth by the Steering
Committee, incorporating national benchmarks and best practices. The City may elect, at additional cost, to
have consultants organize and conduct site visits to identified models, this would likely involve a core group
of the Steering Committee. In consultation with the Steering Committee, consultants will identify up to 2
models for further study and evaluation.

7. General Duties:
The Consultant shall provide consulting services related to the development of a
Higher Education Recruitment Strategy. Consultant shall develop recommendations for
positioning goals and drive consensus among key department staff on these goals.
Consultant shall make recommendations about future recruitment strategies and activities
and, if appropriate, utilizing outside resources to complement or add to those of the internal
staff.
8. Scope of Work and Schedule:
A. Detailed Scope of Work:
Project Kickoff
Consultant will meet with City Staff to organize the project; identify appropriate Staff
resources; determine the consultation/communication process with Staff, Working Group,
Planning Commission, and City Council; and determine schedule constraints and
engagement deliverables. Tasks will include:
. Meetings with Staff
. Confirm work plan
. Identify key leaders for interview
. Recommend alternatives for public participation
Review Background Materials
Consultant will review pertinent background baseline data, reports, studies, and other
materials that may influence the development of a higher education institution and
technology park on the designated Otay Ranch site; and identify critical issues and
planning assumptions. This will encompass:
. Population and socio-demographics
. Workforce characteristics
. Economic Development Strategy
. Housing (including affordability)
. Transportation and infrastructure
. Environmental resources
. Policy and regulatory documents (General Plan, zoning ordinance, MSHCP, etc.)
. Environmental Impact Reports
. Issue Papers prepared by other consultants, including Campus Master Plan
prepared for Otay land Company
Review General Plan land Use Options and Evaluate Implications for the
Development of the Higher Education Site and Regional Technology Park
Consultant will meet with City staff and review the land use options that have been
formulated for the updated General Plan and identify critical assumptions and analyses that
Page 14
~-3
may be related to and affect the development of the proposed Higher Education site and
technology park. Factors to be considered by Consultant will include:
. Land use designations (type, density/intensity, other) including those for non-higher
education uses such as commercial and residential uses.
. Net land area designated exclusively for Higher Education and related purposes.
. Lands designated for "spin-off" or "supporting uses," include Research and
Development uses.
. Development capacity of the EasUOtay Ranch planning sub-area and comparison
of this with SANDAG's regional growth and housing needs forecasts.
. Anticipated mix of housing units (single-family detached, attached, multi-family,
etc.) and, if available, housing prices.
. Amenities proposed for the EasUOtay Ranch planning sub-area that may be used
to attract the development of a higher education facility (parks, open spaces,
cultural, "livable neighborhoods," transit-oriented development, etc.).
. Transportation Plan, Level of Service standards, and planned improvements (how
will the site be accessed?): automobile, public transit, bicycle, pedestrian, truck,
other.
. Infrastructure Plans (e.g., how will the site be served?)
Based on the review of the information provided by staff, Consultant will formulate a
comparative description of the implications of the land use alternatives. This may consider
such factors as:
. Sufficiency of the land area to accommodate a range of higher education facilities.
. Sufficiency of the housing supply to accommodate students, faculty, staff, and other
populations generated by the development of a higher education institution.
(Determined by comparing the subarea's housing capacity with regional growth
forecasts. If the housing capacity matches regional growth forecasts, there may be
insufficient housing to meet the needs of a higher education facility).
. Compatibility of adjoining land uses with a higher education facility.
. Accommodation of uses within the planning sub-area and adjacent to the site that
can capitalize upon the presence of an adjoining higher education facility, such as a
research and development park.
. Ability to accommodate transportation access needs for a higher education facility.
. Ability to provide infrastructure and public services to support the needs of a higher
education facility.
. Presence of any use, design characteristic, or other attributes that may uniquely
benefit the attraction of a higher education facility.
Joint City Council and Planning Commission Workshop on General Plan Land Use
Options
Consultant will provide Staff with preliminary implications of the three candidate General
Plan land uses alternatives on the development of a higher education facility and
technology park at the proposed Otay Ranch site for presentation at the Joint City
Council/Planning Commission workshop. Consultant will be available as a resource to the
Page 15
& -3/
meeting to render expert opinion on higher education and campus planning and
development. The detailed evaluation will be conducted during the "Testing Phase" of the
General Plan Update process, following approval by the City Council of the proposed
alternatives.
Stakeholder Interviews
Consultant will conduct up to forty (40) interviews with key community stakeholders to
understand their perspective on the development of higher education institution and
technology-park on the Otay Ranch site, as well as perceptions of critical obstacles and
issues associated with such development. Questions will be posed regarding a variety of
topics, and may address the type(s) of institution(s) to be attracted, its physical "fit" with
surrounding land uses (an "island" or integrated development), the character and urban
form of the site's physical development, desired induced economic development benefits
for the community (e.g., incubator or research and development industries), role of the
institution in fostering community culture, social well-being, and activity, and other related
topics.
The input will be reviewed for its implications in defining the higher education models to be
considered and physical site planning parameters. Following the interview process
Consultant will work with Staff to establish a Steering Committee comprised of existing
Working Group members supplemented by key stakeholders identified through the
interviews.
Site Analysis
Consultant will compile baseline data for the designated Otay Ranch site from available
reports, studies, and other sources and evaluated for its implications for the development of
a higher education facility and technology park. Representative data, as available, will
include:
. Existing land uses on the site and adjoining properties
. Entitled and planned land uses on adjoining properties
. Existing policies and regulations that may affect the development of the site
(including the MSHCP)
. Plant and animal habitats, including those that are protected through the MSHCP
and conservation and open space agreements
. Topography
. Hydrology and drainage patterns
. Geologic and soil constraints/limitations (faulting, landslide, liquefaction, etc.)
. Existing noise sources that may impact the site
. Wildfire hazards
. Existing and proposed circulation network (automobile, truck, public transit, bicycle.
pedestrian, equestrian, other)
. Existing and proposed water, sewer, energy (electricity and natural gas), storm
drainage, telecommunications and digital, and other infrastructure
. Other material factors
Page 16
&-3~
One to three maps will be prepared, using traditional techniques rather than GIS that
document development constraints based on the preceding research. Using this
information, development "envelope" prototypes will be formulated that indicate the
possible location of buildings and the resulting development capacity of the site will be
calculated. This will be prepared in collaboration with BMS Design Group.
Vision, Guiding Principles, and Interconnected Themes
Formulation of the Vision, Guiding Principles, and Interconnected Themes for the higher
education institution and technology park will be a collaborative process between
Consultant and the Steering Committee. Consultant will provide input regarding: strategic
links both internally and externally to the City; potential programs and services to be
provided; and economic and physical development of the site and surrounding community,
particularly focusing on policy components that are related to the City's
General Plan. This may address:
. Functional role of the higher education facility
. Functional role of the regional technology park
. Site development opportunities/constraints
. Economic development opportunities
. Land use inter-relationships
. Physical form and character
. Sustainability
. Community amenities
. Relationship to local and regional transportation systems
. Relationship to natural resource and other open space systems
. Other material issues
Identify Structural Models
Consultant will conduct research to identify two to three (2-3) campus/technology park
models consistent with the City's vision and goals (number of models determined by City),
and the vision, guiding principles and interconnected themes set forth by the Steering
Committee, incorporating national benchmarks and best practices. The City may elect, at
additional cost, to have Consultant organize and conduct site visits to identified models.
This would likely involve a core group of the Steering Committee. In consultation with the
Steering Committee, Consultant will identify two (2) models for further study and evaluation.
Develop CampuslTechnology Park Site Plan Concepts
Consultant will develop two (2) general conceptual site plans/campus layouts based on the
preferred and/or feasible models identified in the "Identify Structural Models" Task set forth
above. The conceptual site plans will identify major land use zones and interrelationships
within campus boundaries; relationship to surrounding land uses; circulation/access
corridors - vehicular, bicycle, pedestrian, transit; and summarize planning assumptions
(enrollment, density, development capacity etc.).
Page 17
~-33
Public Participation Process
Consultant in consultation with Staff will design (only) a public participation program to
further test the concept(s) choosing from a variety of techniques such as: community
"coffees," public forums/workshops, focus groups, and/or children's and youth programs
which utilize the local school in which the children become the conduit to their parents; as
well as meetings with the Working Group/Steering Committee, Planning Commission, and
City Council.
Evaluate CampuslTechnology Park Concepts
Consultant will test concepts against vision, guiding principles, interconnected themes, and
goals and objectives; and evaluate the implications of the defined concepts for the
surrounding Otay Ranch area and greater Chula Vista community. Consideration will
include:
. Land uses
0 Required land area and physical configuration
0 Compatibility and inter-relationships with adjoining uses
0 Types of land uses needed to support the institution, such as student,
faculty, and staff housing
0 Types of new land uses induced by the development of the institution
0 Uses and amenities required to attract the development of the institution
0 Community character (in consideration of function, intensity of activity,
academic mission, physical form and character, etc.)
. Transportation and infrastructure
0 Transportation systems and networks required to support the development
of the institution (streets and highways, public transit, other)
0 Utility infrastructure (water, sewer, storm drainage, energy,
telecommunications) required to support the development of the institution
(e.g., specialized infrastructure for the institution's research functions)
. Public services
0 Required to support the institution (police, fire, governance, library, cultural,
recreation, youth services, other)
0 Potential public service benefits and joint partnerships with the institution
. Environmental resources
0 Impacts on plant and animal communities, air quality, and other natural
environmental resources
0 Opportunities to capitalize upon the site's and region's environmental
resources
At the conclusion of the evaluation a position paper which summarizes the findings of the
evaluation of both concepts will be produced by Consultant.
Implications for the General Plan
The City of Chula Vista's General Plan goals, policies, and programs will be reviewed for
their consistency in accommodating the preferred campus/technology park concept(s).
Where conflicting, Consultant shall recommend policy revisions and, where absent, new
Page 18
~-
policies will be drafted for the City's consideration. This will encompass both textual and
mapped policies.
Implementation Strategies
Consultant will prepare a set of implementation strategies and resource needs - a
"road map" to advance the selected campus/technology park concept(s). The strategies will
address the following steps:
. Marketing/recruiting educational, corporate and civic partners
. Physical master planning and entitlements
. Deve lop me nt/Co n st ru ctio n
. Operations
Final Deliverables
Consultant will prepare a final report that summarizes the process and findings related to
this engagement; a PowerPoint presentation will also be provided, which can used to
communicate with internal and external audiences about the campus/technology park
concept(s).
Status Reports
After this Agreement is executed and until its term has expired, Consultant will provide a
weekly oral status report on the project's progress. Any outstanding issues associated with
the project shall be discussed by both Parties at that time. Consultant also agrees to
attend a monthly-scheduled consultant/client meeting in which issues and the project's
progress will be discussed in greater depth.

COUNCIL AGENDA STATEMENT
Item 7
Meeting Date FAhrmll:Y 3, 2004
ITI;M TITLI;: PUBLIC HEARING: Regarding the Proposed Assessment of
Certain Delinquent Sewer Service Charges as Recorded Liens Upon
the Respective Owner Occupied Parcels of Land and Placement of
Delinquent Charges on the Next Regular Tax Bill for Collection
RESOLUTION No. Assessing Delinquent Sewer
Service Charges as Recorded Liens Upon the Respective Owner
Occupied Parcels of Land and Approving Placement of Delinquent
Charges on the Next Regular Tax Bill
SUBMITTED BY: Director of Financerrreasurerl~
REVIEWED BY: City Manager&J~ !ì¡1.l (415ths Vote: Yes _NoJL)
In order to adequately protect the City's interest in delinquent sewer service charges and
insure that collection efforts are directed towards the responsible property owner in the
event of a change in ownership, staff is recommending approval for liens against affected
properties as a preliminary action to replacing the delinquencies on the property tax rolls if
they remain unpaid. Adoption of this resolution will enhance the collection process for
delinquent sewer service charges by ensuring that the correct property owners are
charged and that payment be received on a more timely basis. This is the identical
process approved by City Council since August 1998.
RECOMMENDATION: That Council open the public hearing to consider assessing
delinquent sewer service charges as recorded liens on the
affected properties, consider all testimony and adopt the
resolution overruling all protests and assessing these charges
as liens upon the respective owner occupied parcels of land.
BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATIONS: Not applicable.
DISCUSSION:
The Chula Vista Municipal Code Section 13.14.150 allows delinquent sewer service
charges to be assessed as recorded liens upon the affected properties and ultimately
placed on the property tax bills for collection. The ordinance states that upon notification
of the property owners, a public hearing is set for sewer service accounts which are over
sixty days delinquent. At the hearing the City Council considers the delinquent accounts
together with any objections or protests by interested parties. At the conclusion of the
hearing, the City Council, may either approve the delinquency and amount owed on the
accounts as submitted or as modified or corrected by the City Council. Lastly, the City
7..-/
Page 2, Item- 7
Meeting Date FAhrwu:y 3, 2004
Council adopts a resolution assessing such amounts as liens upon the respective parcels
of land, and the amounts are charged to the property owners on the next regular property
tax bill.
Because charges can only be submitted for placement on the property tax bills once a
year in August, staff is recommending assessing liens on the affected properties midyear
as to better ensure the City's chances for collection. If the City were to address these
delinquent charges only once a year in August, the effectiveness of using the property tax
bill as a means of collection would be significantly reduced as the owners of record in
August would not necessarily be the people responsible for the delinquent charges. In
cases where the properties are sold or transferred, assessing liens midyear holds the
correct parties responsible for the delinquent charges. In cases where the property
owners choose to refinance their mortgages, the midyear liens would ensure the City
receiving payment in a more timely manner as the delinquent charges would be paid
through escrow during the refinancing process.
In July 2003, City Council approved liens for 199 delinquent sewer service accounts
valued at $81,500 to be forwarded to the County for collection on the next regular
property tax bill. Staff has currently identified 227 owner occupied accounts totaling
$58,969 as being over 60 days delinquent (listing available at the City Clerk's office).
Many of these property owners have gone through this lien process previously as they
continue to leave their sewer service accounts unpaid.
These property owners have been notified of their delinquencies, and last month, they
were notified of the public hearing and were asked again to pay their delinquent sewer
service charges to avoid a lien being placed on their property. Payment arrangements
will be set up as needed, and staff will continue to update this list as payments are
received and accounts are cleared. A final list will be submitted to the City Council for
consideration as soon as all payments are recorded.
Staff is recommending that the City Council approve the final list of delinquent sewer
accounts as submitted, and that these charges be forwarded to the County and assessed
as liens on the respective owner occupied parcels of land and ultimately placed on the
next regular tax bill for collection.
FISCAL IMPACT:
By placing delinquent sewer service charges on the property owner's regular tax bill,
$70,400 in additional sewer fund revenues were collected in FY02-03. For FY03-04, an
estimated $72,000 in additional revenues should be realized using this collection
method.

Dear Honorable Mayor and CoLlncil:
Over the past few years me City Council has raised concerns ¡¡bout the City's Campaign
Contribution Ordinance ("CCO"). To address mose com:ems me City CoWlcil appointed a
committee: comprised of CoWlcilmember Patty Davis, two representatives of the Charter Review
Commission, one represe:ntative of the Emics Commission and myself The Charter Review
Commissionappoinœd Ch<'l)'1 Cox an¡:j Almida Mllrtin del Campo ap.d the Ethics Commission
appointed Ricardo Gilbert to participate in the committee On behalf of the membe:rs committee,
¡hank you for the opportunity to review and suggest modific¡¡lions 10 the CCO
The committee has met over the past few months to review and revise the ordinance. Duriog
the course of our meetings and discussions several recommendations were proposed to simplify and
clarify the CCO. These recommendations inclll¡:je increasing the contribution limit&tion to $500 in
the gener&1 and special election each; to allow contributions ftom indivi¡:j~]s only; to provide a
waiver of contribution limits for an oppOnent if a candidate 10!lnS or gives himselfowr $1 0,000; an¡:j
the retention of special coWlsel to review an¡:j pursue allege¡:j violations uf the ordinance. We beJieve
the recommeneled modifications to the CCO will result in an orelinance that is easier for both
cilllJidates anel mose cbarged with interpreting and enforcing it to use, while protecting the integrity
of the election process.
We believe we have accomplishe:d what was requested of the committe" and are ple¡¡seel 10
presem a draft ordinance for YOllr review.
