Detisch, legal counsel for Mr. Chrislock, had requested that the following letter be read into the record: "Dear Linda: "Pursuant to your suggestion I am forwarding my written comments to you regarding the above- referenced hearing. As you know I represent Don Chrislock, the owner/operator of Don's Arco, at 495 Telegraph Canyon Road. Due to a previous commitment I will not be able to attend tonight's Council meeting, however, please understand that the adoption of the proposed resolution is considered to be a serious matter by my client and me. We understand that the public convenience and necessity require this project and a portion of Mr. Chrislock's tenancy. While we believe the Council will adopt this resolution we again wanted to assure ourselves of the following: 1. That the City and its contractors will coordinate their work efforts with Mr.Chrislock so that his operation is not significantly impacted until the end of the project and in short he is allowed to operate the gas station part of his business for as long as he can and 2. That the order of possession be no less than 90 days or at least until such time as Arco makes clear its position to Mr. Chrislock regarding the termination of the lease. "There is a lease provision which arguably allows Arco to terminate Mr. Chrislock's tenancy in the event a condemnation action is filed. We want to make certain that if this provision is implemented that Mr. Chrislock be allowed an appropriate time period within which to make proper arrangements regarding his business operations. If the lease provision is implemented then Mr. Chrislock faces either the relocation of his business and/or the substantial curtailment and alteration of his current business operations. We therefore are requesting that the possession date in court be extended as much as possible. "We appreciate your consideration and efforts regarding this proposed acquisition. As we all know condemnation actions can be disruptive and in this case we are requesting that you make this action as unobtrusive as possible. I am requesting that you will include (and it is my understanding that you will include) this letter as part of the administrative record. Should you have any questions or concerns or wish to speak with me please contact me at your earliest convenience. We are available to meet with you and staff regarding any construction coordination meetings. Respectfully Submitted, Donald W. Detisch, Esq."

Ordinance Establishing a 45 mph speed limit on La Media Road ftom Telegraph Canyon Road to Olympic Parkway Establishing a 40 mph speed limit on Heritage Road from Telegraph Canyon Road to Olympic Parkway Establishing a 35 mph speed limit on Paseo Ladera ftom Telegraph Canyon Road to East Palomar Street SUBMITTED BY: Director of General Services/City Engineer ~ REVIEWED BY: City Manage~ {}.o, (4/Sths Vote: Yes_ NoX) Ordinance B. C. Ordinance Based on provisions of the California Vehicle Code and pursuant to authority under the Chula Vista Municipal Code, the City Engineer has determined that the following speed limits be established: · A 45 mph speed limit on La Media Road from Telegraph Canyon Road to Olympic Parkway · A 40 mph speed limit on Heritage Road ftom Telegraph Canyon Road to Olympic Parkway · A 35 mph speed limit on Paseo Ladera from Telegraph Canyon Road to East Palomar Street. RECOMMENDATION: That Council adopt the ordinances. BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS: The Safety Commission, at their meeting of September 16, 2004, voted to concur with staff's recommendation to establish these speed limits on La Media Road, Heritage Road and Paseo Ladera. DISCUSSION: ITEM A - La Media Road La Media Road ftom Telegraph Canyon Road to Olympic Parkway is not currently posted with a speed limit and an official speed limit has yet to be established by ordinance of the City Council. Staff has completed an Engineering and Traffic Survey for this roadway that will be in effect until August 20 II. Based on the 85th percentile speeds, as well as other roadway characteristics outlined . in the survey, staff recommends establishing a 45 mph speed limit on this portion of La Media Road. Speed limits should be established at or below the 85th percentile speed in increments of five (5) mph. The 85th percentile speed is defined as the speed at or below which 85 percent of the traffic is moving. Speed limits set in this manner provide law enforcement officers with the means to control drivers who will not conform to what the majority considers reasonable and prudent. 5-1 Page 2, Item 5 Meeting Date 10/26/04 Upon approval of the proposed speed limit by City Council, Schedule X of the register maintained in the office of the City Engineer will be revised to include the following information: 10.48.020 Schedule X - Established Speed Limits in Certain Zones - Designated Name of Street Beginning At Ending At Proposed Speed Limit La Media Road Telegraph Canyon Rd. Olympic Parkway 45 mph The existing characteristics for La Media Road, as shown in the Engineering and Traffic Survey, are listed in the following table.

Seed Limit 8Sth% Seed Number of Lanes Stri in On-Street Parkin Land Use Horizontal Ali nment Vertical Ali nment Accident Rate: Se ment / State this roadwa 7.8% 0.48/2.16 (per million vehicle miles) ITEM B - Heritage Road Heritage Road from Telegraph Canyon Road to Olympic Parkway is currently posted with a40 mph speed limit along a portion of its length (south of East Palomar Street); however, an official speed limit has yet to be established by ordinance of the City Council. Staffhas completed an Engineering and Traffic Survey for this roadway that will be in effect until August 2011. Based on the 85th percentile speeds and the design speed of the roadway, as well as other roadway characteristics outlined in the survey, staff recommends establishing a 40 mph speed limit on this portion of Heritage Road. Upon approval of the proposed speed limit by City Council, Schedule X of the register maintained in the office of the City Engineer will be revised to include the following information: 5-2 Page 3, Item .5 Meeting Date 10/26/04 10.48.020 Schedule X - Established Speed Limits in Certain Zones - Designated Name of Street Beginning At Ending At Proposed Speed Limit Heritage Road Telegraph Canyon Rd. Olympic Parkway 40 mph The existing characteristics for Heritage Rd., as shown in the Engineering and Traffic Survey, are listed in the following table. Segment Limits Len th/Width Classification ADT ear Exist. Seed Limit 8Sth% Seed Number of Lanes Stri in On-Street Parkin Land Use Horizontal Ali nment Vertical Ali nment Accident Rate: Se ment / State Telegraph Canyon Rd. - Olympic Parkway 0.7 mi. / 104' -121' with a raised median 6 Lane Prime 15,810 2003 south ofE.

Staffhas completed an Engineering and Traffic Survey for Paseo Ladera from East "I" Street to East Palomar Street that will be in effect until December 2009. The speed limit for the portion of Paseo Ladera north of Telegraph Canyon Road was previously established and will not change. The speed limit for the portion of Pas eo Ladera ftom Telegraph Canyon Road to East Palomar Street, which is the subject of this report, will be established by this ordinance. Speed limits should be established at or below the 85th percentile speed in increments of five (5) mph. In addition to the 85th percentile speed, the design speed of a roadway is also considered when establishing a speed limit. Even though the vertical alignment of Pas eo Ladera produces a design speed of29 mph, this vertical curve occurs at the intersection of Pas eo Ladera and Telegraph Canyon Road, beginning 2' north of the south curb line and ending 268' south of the PCR (point of curb return). Since this vertical curve occurs at a controlled intersection, and an accident analysis shows no correlation between the vertical curve and accidents at the intersection, it is felt that the proposed speed limit should be based on the 85th percentile speed as well as the design speed of the remaining vertical curves within the segment. The 85th percentile speed is 37 mph and the minimum design 5-3 Page 4, Item .5 Meeting Date 10/26/04 speed of the next most restrictive vertical curve is 34.7 mph (created by a 3.95% grade difference over 170' in a crest vertical curve beginning 285' north of Higgins Street). This data supports the establishment of a 35 mph speed limit. Therefore, based on this information, as well as other roadway characteristics outlined in the Engineering/Traffic Survey, staff recommends establishing a 35 mph speed limit on Paseo Ladera ftom Telegraph Canyon Road to East Palomar Street. Upon approval of the proposed speed limit by City Council, Schedule X of the register maintained in the office of the City Engineer will be revised to include the following information: 10.48.020 Schedule X - Established Speed Limits in Certain Zones - Designated Name of Street Beginning At Ending At Proposed Speed Limit Paseo Ladera Telegraph Canyon Rd. East Palomar St. 35 mph The existing characteristics for Paseo Ladera, as shown in the Engineering and Traffic Survey, are listed in the following table.

This Basic Speed law provides that no person shall drive a vehicle upon a highway at a speed greater than is reasonable or prudent, having due regard for weather, visibility, traffic and the surface and width of the highway, and in no event at a speed which endangers the safety of persons or property. The basic speed law is founded on the belief that most motqrists are able to modify their driving behavior properly, as long as they are made aware of the conditions around them. Section 22358.5 of the Vehicle Code states that it is the intent' of the Legislature that physical conditions such as width, curvature, grade and surface conditions, or any other condition readily apparent to the driver, in the absence of other factors, would not require special downward speed zoning. The speed limit normally should be established at the first five mile per hour increment below the 85th percentile speed. However, in matching existing conditions with the traffic safety needs of the community, engineering judgment may indicate the need for a further reduction of five miles per hour. The factors justifying such a further reduction are the same factors mentioned above. Whenever such factors are considered to establish the speed limit, they should be documented on the speed zone surveyor the accompanying engineering report. In determining the speed limit which is most appropriate to facilitate the orderly movement of traffic and is reasonable and safe, important factors are prevailing speeds, unexpected conditions, and accident records. Traffic regulations are based upon observations of the behavior of groups of motorists under various conditions. Generally speaking, traffic regulations that reflect the behavior of the majority of motorists are found to be most successful. Laws that arbitrarily restrict the majority of drivers encourage wholesale violation of posted restrictions, lack public support and usually fail to bring about the desired changes in driving behavior. This is especially true of speed zoning. Before and after studies consistently demonstrate that there are no significant changes in traffic speeds following the posting of new or revised speed limits. California Vehicle Code (CVC) Sections 22357 and 22358 authorize local authorities to establish intermediate prima facie speed limits on streets and roads under their jurisdiction, on the basis of an Engineering and Traffic Survey. These state laws permit local authorities to lower the maximum speed limit (65 M.P.H.) or to raise business or residence district speed limits (25 M.P.H.) on the basis of an Engineering and Traffic Survey. These "intermediate limits" between 25 and 65 M.P.H. must be posted to define clearly the limits of the zone and the prima facie speed limit established. Speed Trap- Section 40802(b) provides that prima facie speed limits established under Sections 22352(b)(1), 22354, 22357, 22358 and 22358.3 may not be enforced by radar unless the speed limit has been justified by an Engineering and Traffic Survey within the last seven years. An "Engineering and Traffic Survey" is required where enforcement involves the use of radar or other electronic speed measuring devices, under CVC 40802(b). 5-11 ATTACHMENT THE SPEED LIMIT ESTABLISHMENT PROCESS Speed limits should be established preferably at or near the 85th percentile speed, which is defined as a speed exceeding that which 85 percent of the traffic is moving. The 85th percentile is often referred to as critical speed. Speed limits higher than the 85th percentile are not generally considered reasonable and safe and limits significantly below the 85th percentile do not facilitate the orderly movement of traffic. Speed limits established on this basis conform to the consensus of those who drive highways as to what speed is reasonable and safe, and are not dependent on the judgment of one or a few individuals. Realistic speed zones will invite public compliance by conforming to the behavior of the majority and by giving a clear reminder to the non-conforming violators. These realistic zones will also offer an effective enforcement tool to the Police Department by clearly separating the occasional violator from the reasonable majority. The basic intent of speed zoning is to influence as many drivers as possible to operate at or near the same speed, thus reducing the number of conflicts created by wide differentials in operating speeds. Only when roadside development results in traffic conflicts and unusual conditions which are not readily apparent to drivers, are speed limits somewhat below the 85th percentile warranted. Realistic speed zoning is a Traffic Engineering tool used to derive the best traffic service for a given set of conditions. While the basic speed law states that no person shall drive at a speed greater than is reasonable or prudent, the majority of drivers comply with this law, and disregard regulations which they consider unreasonable. It is only the top fringe of drivers that are inclined to be reckless and unreliable, or who have faulty judgment and must be controlled by enforcement. Speed limits set at or slightly below the 85th percentile speed provide law enforcement officers with a means of controlling the drivers who will not conform to what the majority considers reasonable and prudent. Experience has shown that the 85th percentile speed is the one characteristic of traffic speeds most nearly conforming to a safe and reasonable speed limit. Speed limits set higher than the critical speed will make very few additional drivers "legal' for each 5 M.P.H. that the posted speed limit is increased. Speed limits lower than the critical speed will make a large number of reasonable drivers 'illegal' for each 5 M.P.H. increment that the speed limit is reduced. For practical purposes, the 5 M.P.H. increment at or immediately below the 85th percentile is the numerical value best selected for the posting of a realistic and legally enforceable speed limit. ENFORCEMENT . Concurrence and support of enforcement officials are necessary for the successful operation of a restricted speed zone. Realistic speed zones tend to minimize public antagonism toward police enforcement of obviously unreasonably low speed limits. By posting and enforcing the appropriate speed limits, local authorities invite the public to comply with the reasonable behavior of the majority of the public, while giving a clear reminder to the non-conforming violators. These regulations also offer an effective . 5-12 ATTACHMENT enforcement tool for the local police by clearly distinguishing the intentional violator from the reasonable majority. Therefore, the establishment of a speed limit of more than 5 M.P.H. below the 85th percentile (critical) speed should be done with great care as this may make violators of a disproportionate number of the reasonable majority of drivers. 5-13 ORDINANCE NO.

SUBMITTED BY: Director of General Services / City Engineer ~ S f\ REVIEWED BY: CitYManage~i'"" (4/SthsVote: Yes_ No X ) On October 6, 1992, Council approved a Tentative Subdivision Map for Salt Creek Ranch, Chula Vista Tract No. 92-02. On May 13, 2003, Council approved an Amending Tentative Subdivision Map for Rolling Hills Ranch (formerly known as Salt Creek Ranch) Subarea III, Chula Vista Tract No. 92-02A, in which Neighborhoods 9 through 12 of the original Tentative Subdivision Map were redesigned. Staff proposes that Council now consider approval of the Neighborhood 12 Final Map, its associated Subdivision Improvement Agreement, and its associated Supplemental Subdivision Improvement Agreement. RECOMMENDATION: That City Council adopt the Resolutions. BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS: N/A DISCUSSION: Rolling Hills Ranch Neighborhood 12 is a 54.4~acre project generally located north of Proctor Valley Road and east of Hunte Parkway in the northwestem portion of Rolling Hills Ranch Subarea III, north of the Eastlake Woods project. The project consists of 96 residential lots and 3 HOA-maintained open space lots, and 1 lot for all private streets (see Attachment I). The Tentative Map was approved October 6 1992 (Resolution No. 16834). An Amending Tentative Map was approved May 13, 2003 (Resolution No. 2003-199). Final Map: The Final Map has been reviewed by the City Engineer and found to be in substantial conformance with the approved Tentative Map. The developer, McMillin Rolling Hills Ranch, LLC, has paid all applicable fees, including PAD fees. Council approval of the Final Map will constitute: · Acceptance by the City of the fuel modification open space easements · Acceptance by the City of the sight visibility easements with the rights of ingress and egress · Acceptance by the City of the general utility and access easements, for the installation and maintenance of public utilities · Acceptance by the City of the 5.50-foot tree planting and maintenance easement, with the rights of ingress and egress for the construction and maintenance of street planting along Ranch Gate Road, Iron Gate Lane, Foggy Point Drive, Warm Hearth Way, Evening View Drive, Four Comers Street, Bryan Point Drive, and Colby Point Place. 6-1 Item .,.-- , Page 2 Meeting Date: 10/26/04 Associated Agreements: In addition to Final Map approval, staff recommends that Council approve the following agreements associated with the project: I. Subdivision Improvement Agreement: Requires the Developer to complete the improvements required by said Subdivision. Security bonds have been provided, guaranteeing the completion of all improvements and monumentation required by the Municipal Code. 2. Supplemental Subdivision Improvement Agreement: Addresses several unfulfilled conditions of the Tentative Map approved by Resolution No. 16834 and the Amending Tentative Map approved by Resolution No. 2003-199. These conditions will remain in effect until completed by the developer and/or their successors(s) in interest. Condition 29 of the SSIA prevents developer from seeking final inspection for homes prior to the acceptance of the Proctor Valley Road Sewage Pump Station by the City. Condition 135 of SSIA prevents developer fÌ"om pulling building permits for lots within the project, until domestic water service is available, with the exception oflots 28, 61, 62, 85, 86, and 87. These lots may pull permits if water service to these lots is sufficient for fire suppression. The above agreements have been reviewed by staff, and approved as to form by the City Attorney. FISCAL IMPACT: There is no impact to the General Fund. The developer has paid all fees and other costs associated with the proposed Final Map and agreements. Per the Salt Creek Ranch Public Facilities Finance Plan completed by Economic Strategies Group in 1991, the annual net balance ranges fÌ"om a projected gain of $133,705 in year 4 (i.e. 1995) to a projected loss of $24,371 in year 15 (i.e. 2006). The total accumulated net fiscal balance of the Rolling Hills Ranch project for the fifteen-year period covered by the above fiscal impact analysis conducted in 1991 is estimated at $564,769 (see Attachment 3: Table 4.3-10 from the Salt Creek Ranch Public Facilities Finance Plan).

Fire ChiefùAt' r- City ManagerG'V<;)\y (4/5thsVote: YesXNo_) . f" SUBMITTED BY: REVIEWED BY: SUMMARY: The fire storms of October 2003 sent a strong message about the City's need to develop a better understanding of the scope of the urban-wildland fire potential that exists within the City of Chula Vista and the need to aggressively develop specific building and brush management standards to reduce future fire related losses in these interface areas. This action will retain a consultant to assist staff in developing a comprehensive implementation plan to facilitate enforcement of the Urban-Wildland Interface Code. RECOMMENDATION: That Council adopt the resolution approving an agreement with Dudek and Associates, Inc. for the provision of an implementation plan to enforce the International Urban- Wildland Interface Code, authorizing the Mayor to sign said agreement, and amending the Planning and Building Department's FY 05 expenditure budget by appropriating $80,105 rrom the available balance of the General Fund. BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: N/A DISCUSSION: In July of 1999, at the request of the Fire Department, Council adopted the 1997 Edition of the Urban-Wildland Interface Code (UWIC). The 2000 Edition of the Urban-Wildland Interface Code was subsequently adopted in 2002. The Fire Department, in conjunction with the Planning and Building Department and the Publics Works Department, are now taking steps to adopt the 2003 version of this Code, now known as the International Urban-Wildland Interface Code. Prior to adopting this Code, significant research must be perfonned to establish specific fire hazard zones within the City and to develop building code related amendments to the Code to ensure it represents standards appropriate to the unique characteristics of Chula Vista. A major challenge to be overcome in this process will be the development of a implementation plan that reflects an 7-1 Page 2, Item No.: Meeting Date: 10/19/04 appropriate balance between preserving the natural environment while minimizing the fire risk associated building in the urban-wildland interface area. After conducting a comprehensive review of available staff resources, it has been determined that outside expertise is needed in order to adequately prepare an implementation program to enforce the urban-wildland interface code previously adopted by the City. This review included an analysis of staff's expertise in mapping high fire hazard zones, running computer based programs to model urban-wildland fire scenarios specific to Chula Vista, familiarity with all federal, state and local existing regulations, including the City's MSCP program, and the ability to conduct a cost analysis to bring the existing properties into compliance with the UWIC standards and the cost of maintaining an enforcement program. Staff contacted five (5) firms having expertise in this field and sent them a request for proposal. One firm, Dudek and Associates, responded to the request and was subsequently interviewed by staff. Based on their knowledge of the City's MSCP program, their proven record in working with the City on a variety of special projects and their retention of a widely recognized expert in the field of urban-wildland interface plans, staff is recommending hiring Dudek and Associates to provide the service. The firm will employ a seven member team to complete this project. The interview panel was particilarly impressed with Dudek and Associate's ability to retain the services of Jim Hunt of Hunt Research as a subcontractor on the project. Mr. Hunt has an outstanding reputation for his demonstrated ability to develop comprehensive urban-wildland fire management plans for jurisdictions having characteristics similar to the City of Chula Vista. Under this agreement Dudek and Associates will perform the following tasks: I. Perform a basic urban-wildland risk assessment for the City of Chula Vista 2. Develop a step-by-step guide to implement local enforcement of the 2003 Urban-Wildland Inerface Code for both new construction and additions to existing structures in the interface zone 3. Research and compile a summary sheet identifying all existing State, Federal and local regulations, standards and adopted agreements (including MSCP) relating to management of the urban-wildland in Chula Vista and provide recommendations to overcome conflicts 4. Create a city-wide high-fire hazard overlay map 5. Provide recommendations for amendments and findings to be incorporated into the adoption of the 2003 edition of the International Urban-Wildland Interface Code 6. Develop a mission statement, goals and objectives for a proposed on-going enforcement program 7. Prepare a budget estimate to initially implement, then maintain a viable UWIC enforcement program for Chula Vista 8. Develop a set of fire models and response scenarios to respond to incidents representing I) most. ftequent and 2) greatest wildfire threats to Chula Vista 9. Provide recommendations for a comprehensive plan to manage the urban-wildland interface fire risks associated with City owned and/or mutually managed Open Space and Wildlife 7-2 Page 3, Item No.: 7 Meeting Date: 10/19/04 Preserve Areas 10. Working with staff, provide a proposed policy statement that reflects a balanced approach to preserving the natural environment while minimizing the fire risk associated with building in the urban-wildland interface area FISCAL IMPACT: Retaining Dudeck and Associates to prepare a UWIC implementation program will necessitate amending the FY 04-05 Planning and Building Department expenditure budget by appropriating $80,105 fÌ"om the available balance of the General Fund.

SUBMITTED BY: Michael T. Meacham, Director Conser.:ation & Environmental service~ REVIEWED BY: David D. Rowlands, Jr., City Manage~/I (4/5ths Vote Yes _ No-1U The City and San Diego Gas & Electric (SDG&E) have concluded negotiations and the City Council approved a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) on October 12,2004 (Attachment I). This item requests that the City Council set a public hearing to consider the proposed franchise on the terms and conditions summarized below and detailed in the draft franchise agreements (Attachment II and III) granting gas and electric franchises to SDG&E. RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council approve the resolution and set a public hearing for November 9, 2004 to consider granting a ten-year gas franchise and electric franchise, with a possible additional new term of 20 years, to SDG&E. BACKGROUND: SDG&E has held the City's gas and electric franchises since 1972. The initial twenty-five-year term expired on November 30, 1997. The City granted SDG&E five- year franchises on September 1, 1998. Both parties agreed at the time that the five-year term would provide an appropriate "bridge" during the implementation of electricity deregulation in California. The City continued to communicate with SDG&E regarding municipal energy issues and monitor Public Utilities Commission activities during that five- year period. The City also began formal negotiations with SDG&E in July of 2002, approximately one year prior to the June 30, 2003 expiration date of the existing franchise agreements. The City concluded negotiations with SDG&E this month, and Council adopted an MOU outlining the conceptual framework for future relations between the City and SDG&E on October 12, 2004. BOARD AND COMMISION RECOMMENDATION: Not Applicable DISCUSSION: The following is a summary of the proposed terms and conditions for the franchise agreements, which are described in more detail in the attached draft franchise agreements. Items applicable to both franchise agreements: . Franchise Fee: Franchise fee for the Electric Franchise will be 1.25%. The Gas Franchise Fee will remain at 2.0%. If the statutory Franchise Fee for general law cities is increased during the term of the Franchise, SDG&E will pay the higher rate to the City as soon as authorized for collection by the California Public Utilities Commission. 8-1 Meeting Date 10/26/04 Page 2 of 3 · Term: The initial term for both the Electric and Gas Franchises shall be for a ten-year period commencing on January 1, 2005. Provided all of SDG&E's obligations under the MOU are materially satisfied, SDG&E will automatically receive a new additional 20-year term upon expiration of the initial term. · Utility Users Tax (UUT): To the extent allowed by law, SDG&E shall collect UUT from other electricity providers for remittance to the City. · California Municipal Lands Use: SDG&E shall implement the provisions of California Public Utilities Code Sections 6351, 6352, 6353, 6354 and 6354.1 and remit funds collected to the City. · Administrative Practices: SDG&E and City will cooperate to prepare a manual to govern the permitting, installation, maintenance, repair and removal of SDG&E's facilities in the streets of the City. · System Upgrades: SDG&E agrees to include the City in the early implementation of system-wide enhancements (e.g. infrastructure upgrades and ancillary services) to the extent it is consistent with SDG&E's policy to prioritize and construct such system enhancements. · Indemnity: SDG&E will indemnify the City for liabilities resulting from the exercising of any and all rights or privileges granted in the franchise agreements. The following item is applicable only to the Electric Franchise: · Rule 20A - Undergrounding: SDG&E agrees to expend the City's existing Rule 20A allocation of approximately $5 million towards the completion of undergrounding projects identified in the MOU or as directed by the City. In addition, new allocations of monies that may be drawn down for future undergrounding projects shall be made at the rate of $2 million per year. The City and SDG&E have agreed to a number of other important community benefits, which are described in the attached Memorandum of Understanding (MOU). By adopting the proposed resolution, the City Council will set a public hearing date that will: provide notice to the public, provide the opportunity for further public input, and establish November 9, 2004 as the date for Council's consideration of granting an electric franchise and natural gas franchise agreement to SDG&E under the terms and conditions described herein. FISCAL IMPACT: There will be no net impact to the General Fund as a result of Council's approval of staff's recommendation, as it merely sets a hearing to consider the franchises. If the Council elects to approve the proposed franchises, the proposed electricity franchise fee rate will generate approximately $2.1 million in new revenues during the life of the franchise for a projected total of $42.8 million for the term of the franchise. 8-2 Attachments: Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) DRAFT Gas Franchise Agreement DRAFT Electric Franchise Agreement Meeting Date 10/26/04 Page 3 of 3 Mtm:SOG&EIMOU-Franchise/final~cas intention to grant gas-elec·10-26-04 8-3 MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING BETWEEN SAN DIEGO GAS & ELECTRIC COMPANY AND THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA This Memorandum of Understanding ("MOU") is entered into this _ day of 2004, by and between SAN DIEGO GAS & ELECTRIC COMPANY, a California corporation ("SDG&E" or "the Company") and the CITY OF CHULA VISTA, a chartered municipal corporation ("City"), hereinafter collectively referred to as "the Parties," with regard to the following: A. SDG&E currently provides the distribution and sale of natural gas and electricity within the City's jurisdictional boundaries on a month to month basis pursuant to the terms of the ttanchise entered into by the Parties and effective as of July 1, 1998. B. Pursuant to its rights as a charter city, the City formed its own municipal utility. In the pursuit of its municipal utility goals, the City considered multiple concepts including municipalization, a program to acquire newly constructed distribution facilities known as "greenfield" installations, community choice aggregation, generation and other energy project alternatives. C. After lengthy negotiations, the City and SDG&E have agreed that it is in the best interest of the Parties, the residents and businesses of the City ofChula Vista, and utility ratepayers of SDG&E, for the City and SDG&E to enter into this MOU providing for specific community-wide benefits and new gas and electricity fÌ"anchise agreements between the parties incorporating the following terms. 8-4 1 NOW, THEREFORE, the Parties agree as follows: AGREEMENT TERMS 1.1 Cooperation: Both Parties recognize that the interests of the residents and businesses ofthe City of Chula Vista are best served by a cooperative relationship between the City and SDG&E. In that regard, SDG&E commits to timely brief, in a reasonable time in advance, the City staff on planned filings related to construction of facilities within the City or as to major rate changes at the California Public Utilities Commission ("CPUC") or other public agency that may materially affect the residents and businesses ofthe City and agree to attempt to resolve any issues. The City commits to timely brief, in a reasonable time in advance, and to work with SDG&E to resolve any issues, prior to making any filings by the City to the CPUC or other public agency which may be considered adverse to SDG&E. 1.2 Bayfront Undergrounding: A key objective ofthe City is to remove all above ground electric lines and associated hardware as described herein and to underground such lines and associated hardware in the area identified in paragraph 1.3 as the Bayftont. The City and SDG&E have agreed to work in concert to achieve that result as set forth in this MOU. 1.3 Bayfront Transmission Lines: SDG&E has filed an application with the CPUC for a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity ("CPCN") for construction ofa new 230kV line and associated hardware that runs ftom the proposed Otay Mesa power plant through Chula Vista including, in part, the Bayftont (the "Project"). City recognizes the significance of this Project to SDG&E and will coordinate meetings with the CPUC staff and commissioners. SDG&E and City will cooperatively work to achieve the objective of undergrounding the 230kV line including cables, splices, conduits, vaults, and any associated hardware ("230 kV Line") identified on the map that is attached hereto as Attachment A that were originally identified in the CPCN application to be above ground ("Alternative") at the location commencing south of the Sweetwater River at 8-5 2 approximately Tower 189507 south to approximately Tower 188701 where there will be the addition of two single pole structures located approximately at Towers 188701 and 18700 and a cable pole located adjacent just north of Tower 88701. The designated area shown from Towers 189507 to approximately 188701 shall hereinafter be referred to as the "Bayftont". The City and SDG&E will actively support the Alternative in the pending environmental and regulatory review process for the Project. The City and SDG&E will support the Project as modified by the Alternative and will mutually continue efforts at the CPUC to provide justification for the Alternative and detailing the special circumstances that exist to reinforce the joint position on said Alternative. At tills time, SDG&E has no plans for a 500 kV project along the Bayftont. In the event at some time during the term of this MOU additional transmission or distribution lines are needed along the Bayftont, SDG&E agrees it will file for such lines to be undergrounded as a preferred alternative and work cooperatively with the City to maintain this area as an underground district. I.3.A Upon the FERC, ISO, and CPUC's approval, as necessary, acceptable to SDG&E, to proceed with the construction of the Project with the Alternative, the 230 kV Line would be placed underground in conjunction with its construction, currently scheduled to begin July 2005 and be completed by June 2007, dependent on the timing of CPUC approval and other required permits. Approval shall be deemed acceptable to SDG&E provided that it is not materially different from the application (submitted and as may be revised by SDG&E and as may be modified by the Alternative), not materially detrimental to SDG&E, and the cost of said Proj ect will be fully collected in rates. This undergrounding construction, currently estimated to cost approximately $31 to $36 million, would be done and paid for by SDG&E consistent with its rules and regulations for electric transmission construction. I.3.B. The City agrees that it will work cooperatively to minimize costs and expedite the construction of the Alternative, ongoing maintenance, 20A proj ects, new service extensions, and other SDG&E utility projects that are consistent with City policies, including expeditious processing of all permits necessary for SDG&E' s design, construction and maintenance of the facilities associated with the construction of the 230 8-6 3 kV Line including the undergrounding, consistent with all laws and regulations applicable to the Project. Consistent with all laws and regulations, the City will also expeditiously process any coastal development permits and timely provide any applicable exemptions necessary for the construction of the Project including the Alternative. The City will assist SDG&E in meeting all requirements so that City may timely issue permits consistent with all applicable laws and regulations. Both Parties agree to cooperate to the fullest extent possible to obtain additional easements that may be needed as a result of this undergrounding and reduce the costs for undergrounding or removal of all facilities described herein. The Parties understand that the schedules set forth in this MOU are estimates only and dependent on the timely issuance of all required federal, state, and local regulatory approvals, permits, and authorizations. 1.4 Existing 138 kV Transmission: There are currently three 138 kV circuits, cables, splices, conduit, vaults and associated hardware ("138 kV circuit") ftom the South Bay switchyard proceeding north overhead along the Bayftont. In addition, two of the existing 138 kV circuits continue to proceed south of the switchyard then east through Chula Vista. The City has a primary objective to underground the currently existing, north and south, 138 kV circuits as described below and to eliminate the associated bridge structures and associated hardware. The Parties agree to work in concert as described herein to achieve such goal. IA.A. There are three required conditions for undergrounding or removal of all of the existing 138kV circuits. First, the proposed 230 kV Line along Chula Vista's Bayftont must be approved by the CPUC and undergrounded. Second, the Main Street substation or "suitable alternative location in San Diego" must be upgraded as set forth in Section I.4.B to a 230kV facility ("Upgrade"). Finally, the City designates 20A funds for the undergrounding of one ofthe three 138kV circuits, described herein as Tie Line 13815 (Tie Line 13815 consists of the 138 kV Transmission lines). In addition, with respect to the undergrounding of the 138 kV circuits ftom Tower 281763 and south to Towers 188700 or 188701, as described in Attachment A, is conditioned upon the removal or relocation of switchyard as set forth in 1.7 below. 8-7 4 IA.B. SDG&E will file all needed application with the CPUC and other applicable regulatory agencies (except the City of San Diego Coastal Permit which will be applied for by SDG&E within one month of receiving CPUC approval of said application and other permits needed during construction), by March 31, 2005 for the Upgrade and the removal of the two 138 kV circuits and associated bridge structures along the Bayfront from Tower 189507 to Tower 281763. After having received all necessary FERC, CPUC and ISO approvals acceptable to SDG&E, the Main Street substation will be upgraded and/or moved. Approval shall be deemed acceptable to SDG&E provided that it is not materially different from the application (submitted and as may be revised by SDG&E), not materially detrimental to SDG&E, and the cost of said Upgrade will be fully collected in rates. As a result of the upgrade, SDG&E will remove two 138 kV circuits and underground 138 kV circuit Tie Line 13815 on the Bayftont ftom Tower 189507 to Tower 281763 provided City has timely designated the use of20 A funds to accomplish the undergrounding of Tie Line 13815 prior to the Upgrade. SDG&E has agreed that as a part of the upgrade to the Main Street substation, the associated two 138KV circuits will be removed and the cost of removal will be borne by SDG&E. I.4.C The cost to underground Tie Line 13815 on the BayfroÍlt from Tower 189507 to Tower 188701 is currently estimated to cost $14 million (in 2004 dollars). The City will pay the actual cost for undergrounding Tie Line 13815 utilizing its 20A funds or any other alternative funding the City may have. I.4.D In order to fund the undergrounding of Tie Line 13815, the Parties agree that the City will reserve and designate its entire unspent 20A allocation, estimated to be $5 million, for the funding of the undergrounding for Tie Line 13815. The City will designate and dedicate one half of its $2 million annual allocation ($1 million annually) ftom 2004 through 2013 as additional initial funding for undergrounding Tie Line 13815. The undergrounding is scheduled to occur prior to 2013 however, the City may borrow ahead for up to the entire $10 million previously described to fund Tie Line 13815. If this amount is still not sufficient and the Franchises are in effect, the City will be permitted to borrow forward additional 20A funds of $1 million annually if necessary to 8-8 5 complete the funding of the undergrounding of Tie Line 13815 not to exceed $5 million ("Supplemental Borrowed 20A Funding"). 1.5 Supporting Structures: The estimated target date for the removal of the two 138 kV circuits and supporting steel lattice bridge structures, high voltage insulators, overhead conductors and all associated hardware ("Supporting Structures") north of Tower 281763 shall be by or before the end of2008 conditioned upon the following: (1) the City has authorized the use of available 20A funds for the undergrounding of Tie Line 13815, (2) the 230kV Line has been energized, (3) the Main Street substation or alternative site has been upgraded to 230kV, and (4) Tie Line 13815 has been undergrounded north of Tower 281763 in accordance with Section IA.B. SDG&E will remove the Supporting Structures that supported those 138kV lines at its sole cost. The cost of this removal to SDG&E is currently estimated to be $5 million. 1.6 Existing 69 kV Transmission: There are also 69 kV circuits on wooden poles along the Chula Vista Bayftont. The City can fund the undergrounding of these lines with any of its 20A allocations not committed to Tie Line 13815, or any other alternative funding the City may have. Any advances for 20A funds (not including the Supplemental Borrowed 20A funding) in excess of the amount needed to fund the undergrounding of Tie Line 13815, can also be used for undergrounding these facilities. The Parties agree to work cooperatively, consistent with the overall objectives of the City, to remove such poles at the earliest time practicable. 1.7 Switchyard: In the event the Project has been constructed, the Main Street Substation has been Upgraded to 230 kV, and the South Bay Power Plant can be and is retired, replaced, or relocated such that the facility cannot be returned to service without new authorization ftom any and all required authorities, and all necessary SDG&E Board and FERC, CPUC and California Independent System Operator (CallSO) approvals acceptable to SDG&E are acquired for the relocation of the switchyard, SDG&E will relocate the switchyard at no cost to the City provided that the City provides, at no cost to SDG&E, adequate land for the new switchyard in an acceptable location and land rights as defined below to SDG&E to interconnect with its electric system. The approvals 8-9 6 acquired for the relocation of the switchyard shall be deemed acceptable to SDG&E provided that it is not materially different ftom the switch yard relocation application (submitted and as may be revised by SDG&E), not materially detrimental to SDG&E, and the cost of said relocation will be fully collected in rates. SDG&E will consider the following factors in determining an acceptable location: (1) The new location must have permanent easement and the same entitlements as are currently held by SDG& E for the existing switchyard or an alternative acceptable to SDG&E. (2) Such a new switchyard would be located at an alternative location on Chula Vista's Bayftont, west ofI-5, adjacent to existing right of way and on land that is environmentally clean and seismically acceptable, or, if circumstances warrant, at such location as the parties may mutually select. (3) The footprint for a new switchyard would be at least 450 x 650 feet depending on the connections. The cost to SDG&E is currently estimated to be approximately $50 million. Upon relocation of the Switchyard and pursuant to sections 1.4A and I.4C, the 138 kV circuit located ftom Tower 281763 to approximately Tower 188701 will be undergrounded once the City has designated the 20A funds or other alternative funding the City may have (with Tower 188700 remaining above ground). SDG&E will work with the City to minimize overhead structures once the location of the new Switchyard is determined. SDG&E will include the removal of the other 138 kV circuit and the Supporting Structures, including Tower 188701, with its application for the relocation of the Switchyard. This removal of said 138 kV, Supporting Structures, and Tower 188701 will be done and paid for by SDG&E consistent with its rules and regulations. The City will timely process all necessary City permits and support SDG&E in its applications to accomplish this construction, consistent with all laws and regulations applicable to SDG&E and the City. 1.8 Nonperformance: It is recognized by both Parties that completion of key objectives is crucial to this MOU. However, timely performance by SDG&E is, in part, outside of its control. I.8.A. In the event that the City has fulfilled its obligations hereunder, and through no other fault of the City, the Parties are unsuccessful in achieving removal and/or undergrounding of the 230kV and 138kV lines along the Bayftont as determined 8-10 7 by a CPUC [mal decision, SDG&E agrees the City has not achieved its primary benefit hereunder. At such time as the CPUC has denied the actions requested in Sections 1.3, lA, and 1.5, and a period of sixty (60) months ftom March 31, 2005 has passed, section 1.8.B as to the statutory ftanchise fee amount (immediately following) and the obligation of the City to rerrain ftom Distribution Services set forth in section 1.l4.A will be waived by SDG&E. The occurrence of any such waiver does not terminate the grant of rranchise. 1.8.B. To the extent that SDG&E no longer provides exclusive energy utility distribution and transmission services in the City, as defined above, it has not achieved one of its primary benefits hereunder. To the extent that this situation occurs, the Parties agree that the compensation under the rranchise agreements will be revised to provide that concurrent with such event for the remainder of the term the City will be paid the statutory ftanchÍse fee amounts payable to general law cities under the California Public Utilities Code and standard Tariff Rule 20A allocations. 1.9. Community Choice Aggregation: SDG&E will cooperate with the City's efforts to participate in Community Choice Aggregation as it is implemented by the CPUC. Once the regulatory rules have been established, and all legal appeals of SDG&E have been exhausted, SDG&E will comply with the rules and regulations implementing such CPUC orders and state law. 1.10. Industrial Development Revenue Bonds: For the term of the MOU, SDG&E grants to City an exclusive right to be the issuer ofSDG&E's Industrial Development Bonds ("IDB") issues and refinancings on the following conditions: a) The processing ofIDB issues and refinancings are completed in a timely manner.; and b) Chula Vista's issuance charge is no more than 35 basis points (in addition to Chula Vista's administrative costs related to bond issuance, such costs are limited to the CITY's actual costs directly related to the processing of the bond issuance); and 8-11 8 c) Chula Vista charges no annual fee or costs; and d) Chula Vista's Bond Counsel indicates that Chula Vista's involvement with respect to each issue or refinancing is permissible under the then current tax laws and this it is not necessary to obtain a Superior Court judgment in a validation action. The City and SDG&E must follow a reasonable schedule of activities in order to enable SDG&E to obtain available allocation of state ceiling on qualified private activity bonds or to close transactions in a timely fashion that does not detrimentally impact the ability to obtain such funding by SDG&E on a timely basis or the rates available, to be mutually developed by SDG&E and the City, including timely submission of the California Debt Limit Allocation Committee ("CDLAC") applications, approvals of City Council resolutions, and execution of bond documents. Additionally the City will not have approval authority over, or be able to designate capital projects associated with such financings. Nothwithstanding the forgoing, SDG&E will provide the City with a list of the designated capital projects associated with said financing. In the event the city procedures as implemented do not provide SDG&E the ability to get the funding in a timely manner as set forth herein, SDG&E may use an alternate issuer. I.ll. City Permitting and Review: On the effective date of the MOU, SDG&E will pay the City a one-time fee, in an amount of $250,000, for development of standardized and expedited permit processes and requirements for utility projects and maintenance work consistent with CPUC regulation and generally accepted industry standards. SDG&E and the City will develop a standards manual to address the issues herein and will be completed within 120 days of the effective date of this MOU. The City and SDG&E commit to work together to streamline and expedite City permitting and processes for 20A and other utility work, including construction of new service inftastructure and maintenance on existing inftastructure, to minimize costs and maximize benefits to the Parties. 8-12 9 LI2. Substation Beautification and Western Chula Vista Parks: SDG&E will provide $105,000 of services to beautify electric substations within the City. SDG&E will provide to the City an additional $375,000 in services performed by SDG&E which are acceptable to the City for use of transmission rights of way as park space in western Chula Vista, consistent with and that would not interfere with operation, practices, and service of the utility. 1.13. Public Purpose and Other Program Funding: The Parties recognize that SDG&E collects certain amounts generally referred to as "Public Purpose Program" ("PPP") funds ftom each ratepayer.

SUBMITTED BY: Director of Planning and Buildin;¡;f13 ~ J~ REVIEWED BY: City ManagerGßjJ(" (4/5ths Vote: Yes_NolL) On June 23, 2004 the GMOC presented its 2003 Annual Report to the City Council regarding compliance with the City's eleven Quality-of-Life Threshold Standards. At the presentation, the GMOC Chair with the concurrence of the Mayor and City Manager, decided to recommend continuance of the presentation of the Schools element until a later time. The GMOC had decided to broaden the traditional definition of the schools threshold. The delay was allowed based on assurances by the Sweetwater Union High School District that their Long Range Facilities Master Plan (LRFMP), would be made available to the GMOC after approval by their board, expected in July 2004. The GMOC has received the LRFMP with the [mdings presented by the SUHSD staff. After considering this information the GMOC has finaled their schools findings and recommendations and are reporting back to Council The report covers the period fi:om July 1, 2002 through June 30, 2003, identifies current issues in the second half of2003 and early 2004, and finally assesses threshold compliance concerns overtbe next 5 years. The report discusses current compliance, issues, and corresponding recommendations. A summary of the GMOC's recommendations for Schools and staffs proposed implementation actions is included as Attachment 1. Once approved the schools element will be integrated into the remainder of the GMOC report as was approved by Council on June 23, 2004. RECOMMENDATION: 1) That the City Council: a) Adopt a resolution accepting the Schools element of the 2003-04 GMOC Annual Report and approving the recommendations contained therein; and direct the City Manager to 9-1 Page 2, Item No.: Meeting Date: '9' 10/26/04 undertake actions necessary to implement those recommendations as presented in the "2003- 04 GMOC Recommendations/Proposed Implementing Actions Summary" (Attachment 1). BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: The Planning Commission reviewed the Schools Element of the GMOC report on October 13, 2004. At that meeting they passed a resolution (Attachment 2) which accepted the report and recommendations therein, and recommends that Council do the same. DISCUSSION: 1. Summary of Findings Threshold Compliance Chula Vista Elementary School District Threshold met Threshold likely met over the next five years Sweetwater Union High School District Threshold met Threshold likely met over the next five years 2. Summary of Key Issues School Threshold The measures of whether schools have met the growth management threshold has been the "Capacity to accommodate students used now or committed." Evaluation of this criteria is based on a self-assessment by the districts, of their ability to house students. To house students has been traditionally interpreted by the GMOC to mean to provide a desk. The GMOC is continuing to use this definition. Using this definition the CVESD and the SUHSD have met the threshold and are expected to do so over the next five years. Looking to the future the GMOC has stated that the definition of "accommodate" should be expanded to include a broader definition of the physical needs of students necessary for the education process and for parity of school facilities across the district. The GMOC has indicated their intent to work through the "Top to Bottom" review of the growth management program and in consultation with the school districts, to accomplish this end. Financing for West Side Schools Over the long term there is the potential for significant residential growth on the west side of the City. These demands, while several years away, may exceed the school districts current capacity to 9-2 Page 3, Item No.:~ Meeting Date: 10/26/04 accommodate students. The remedy to build additional capacity is hampered due to the lack of identified financing. The GMOC recognizes that being proactive in identifying a strategy for financing construction of new school capacity in the City's established westem neighborhoods is a timely action. The GMOC believes that the respective school districts should take the lead role once the broad growth parameters are identified in the General Plan Update and Urban Core Specific Plan. The GMOC is recommending that the City provide assistance to the school districts as appropriate in the identification of viable fmancing options. Extraordinary Delay Last year the GMOC issued a Statement of Concern regarding the timing for high school (HS) 13, which the Sweetwater Union High School District (SUHSD) has indicated, will be needed by July or September of 2006. As then, it is recognized that efforts are fully underway between the school district, the City and the major developers in eastern Chula Vista to meet this schedule. To date the schedule for HS 13 is on track to meet the deadline. The GMOC was satisfied that the schedule although tight is obtainable and that time for unanticipated delay is factored into the program. However, should an extraordinary delay occur that creates a situation where HS 13 will not open by September 2006, the GMOC is recommending that the City, staying within their jurisdictional domain, provide assistance to the SUHSD in developing options so as to avoid school crowding. 3. Conclusions To assist Council in evaluating and acting upon the GMOC's recommendations, a concise summary of the GMOC's recommendations and corresponding staff responses is presented in Attachment 1 (labeled as Appendix A in the GMOC Report). Staff requests direction ftom'Council regarding implementation of those recommendations as outlined in the right-hand column of Attachment 1. FISCAL IMPACT: None at this time. As specified follow-up actions are brought forward to the City Council, fiscal analysis of these actions will be provided.

PASSED AND APPROVED BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA, CALIFORNIA, this 13 day of October 2004 by the following vote to- wit: AYES: NOES: ABSENT: ABSTENTIONS: Marco Polo Cortes, Chairman 9-5 ATTACHMENT 3 September 14, 2004 TO: The Honorable Mayor and City Council City of Chula Vista FROM: William Tripp, Chairperson 7/1/2003 to 6/30/2004 Gary Nordstrom, Chairperson 7/1/2004 to 6/30/2005 Growth Management Oversight Commission (GMOC) SUBJECT: 2003-04 GMOC Annual Report (July 2002 to June 30, 2003, to the Current Time and Five Year Forecast) The GMOC is appreciative of the time and professional expertise given by the various City department staff as well as the school districts, water authorities, and Air Pollution Control District in helping us complete this year's annual report. The comprehensive written and verbal reports presented to the GMOC illustrate the commitment of these dedicated professionals to serving the Chula Vista community. Special thanks to Dan Forster and Cherryl Cisneros who provided excellent staff support. We would like to recognize the commissioners of the GMOC: Vice Chair, David Krogh, Rafael Munoz, Michael Spethman, Steve Palma, Arthur Garcia, Kevin O'Neill, and Richard Arroyo. This dedicated and diverse team of citizens read numerous reports, listened to detailed presentations, and participated in hours of thoughtful discussion about the impact of development on the "quality of life" in Chula Vista. Over the last few years the GMOC has been in the lead identifying ways we can become more responsive to the community and effective in our message to Council. The most important aspects of those changes has been: · Holding regular public workshops; · Focusing greater attention on western Chula Vista; and, · Having greater future vision, by dealing with current issues and looking critically at the next 5 year time period. · This years report will be dated 2003-04 to reflect focus on current issues, in subsequent years the report will be dated the year it is presented, i.e. next years GMOC report will be dated 2005. The GMOC is pleased with these accomplishments and looks forward to additional changes brought forth through the "top to bottom" review process. As we review the City's growth over the last several years, two things are clear, first there has been a lot of growth, and second the City has done a remarkable job in providing the facilities 9-6 and services necessary to accommodate this rate of development. It is a testament to the current growth management program, and all the individual actions that have taken place, that we are doing so well. We all hear the complaints about growth, but I know of no other jurisdiction that has handled this level of growth so well, and has maintained a desirable city image. But, we all know we can and must continue to strive to do better. Eight of the eleven quality of life thresholds were judged by the GMOC to be III full compliance, these include: · Fiscal · Air quality · Sewer · Water · Drainage · Parks and Recreation · Traffic · Schools Three of the thresholds failed or had at least partial non-compliance: · Library has fallen below the threshold but a program is in place to correct this. · The Police threshold has two components, Emergency and Urgent response times. The emergency response time threshold was met but the urgent response time was not. · The Fire/EMS response time did not meet the threshold. The following report includes a more detailed presentation of the eleven threshold standards, identified issues, findings, and recommendations to the City Council. The GMOC was appreciative of the time extended to us during the joint City Council, Planning Commission and GMOC workshop on June 23, 2004, and look forward to sending the final section on schools to Council in October 2004. 9-7 RESOLUTION NO.

The Districts' replies should address the following: 1. Amount of current capacity now used or committed. 2. Ability to absorb forecasted growth in affected facilities. 3. Evaluation of funding and site availability for projected new facilities. 4. Other relevant information the Districts desire to communicate to the City and GMOC. THRESHOLD FINDING: CURRENT: Capacity to accommodate students used now or committed. CHULA VISTA ELEMENTARY SCHOOL DISTRICT - Threshold Met SWEETWATER UNION HIGH SCHOOL DISTRICT- Threshold Met FORECAST: Ability to accommodate forecasted growth - Funding and site availability for projected new facilities. CHULA VISTA ELEMENTARY SCHOOL DISTRICT - Threshold Likely Met SWEETWATER UNION HIGH SCHOOL DISTRICT- Threshold Likely Met 9-9 1 3.11.1 Threshold Compliance Discussion: The school threshold issue is undoubtedly the most complex topic the GMOC has to consider. Schools are among the most important community resources but since the schools are governed by a political body separate from the City, the GMOC has no direct means to affect change. Moreover, because of Senate Bill 50, which was enacted to obtain support from the Building Industry Association (BIA) for school bond issues, local governments cannot require extra fees or require the establishment of a Mello Roos from new development to fmance schools. So, although the City can levy fees for road, sewer, and park improvements, the city cannot do the same for schools. Also, based on the same law cities are not allowed to regulate the rate of growth of residential development based on school impacts. Even though there is little recourse for action, the GMOC believes that it must take a strong position if a school threshold compliance is in question. In this context the GMOC must make a judgment call on whether the schools are accommodating the existing student population and whether there will be adequate capacity to accommodate future students in the next 5 years. If the GMOC believes that students are not being accommodated now, then the threshold fails. If the evidence (including testimony) reviewed by the GMOC results in its conclusion that accommodation might not be met in the future, a "Statement of Concern" may be issued. The defmition of the term "accommodate" is key. Since the threshold has been monitored the term "accommodate" has been narrowly interpreted by the City/GMOC to mean the physical housing of students, specifically that each student has a chair/desk. The term "accommodate" can also be used in a broader context that includes more qualitative topics such as adequate non-classroom facilities as restrooms, proper lighting, having comparable facilities across the district, or setting a standard for being technologically equipped. The standards themselves defmed by the districts governing agencies. Statement: After a significant amount of discussion, the GMOC has concluded that "accommodate" as referenced in the Schools quality of life threshold language, should mean more thanjust to house students. The GMOC has decided that in the spirit of creating a quality of life threshold, it is a reasonable interpretation that a quality of life threshold cannot be only students being housed, but must instead be inclusive of those aspects that give it quality. 9-10 2 Finding: Special Comment: 3.11.2 Issue: . The GMOC recognizes that both school districts currently meet the threshold standard. At the same time, as indicated above, the GMOC has concluded that the traditional threshold defmition of "accommodate" being a desk per each student does not adequately address the intent of the threshold. The GMOC will work with staff on the "Top to Bottom" update of the City's Growth Management program, with school district participation, to recommend to Council the appropriate change so that the term accommodation is explicitly defined. The GMOC appreciates and aclmowledges the support and voluntary participation that the school districts provide to the City's Growth Management Program and the GMOC. Both school districts have completed questionnaires and assigned staff to brief the GMOC on various issues. Managing a schoòl district of the size and with the growth dynamics being faced in the South County is a monumental challenge. While improvements are being made and plans for further work are in place the GMOC continues to recognize problems, a principle conc= being the disparity of facilities among middle and high schools. While these disparities are an important issue, the GMOC recognizes and commends the SUHSD for its recently completed Long Range Facility Master Plan (LRFMP). It is the LRFMP that is designed, in part, to specifically address issues of basic parity among all schools. The LRFMP establishes facility quality standards, assessment of those standards by school, and a program for correcting deficiencies with a financing plan QVer a multi-year period. This is precisely the kind of program which is necessary to help assure future compliance. The GMOC seeks to support the SUHSD in whatever way possible to improve the physical condition of our schools so as to provide a quality learning environment and will be requesting annual updates on the progress of the LRFMP. Growth and School Financing School fmancing in new growth areas has been accomplished through the willingness of developers to add Mello Roos fees to their homes. While not required to do so, developers understand that without schools the marketability and therefore value of their homes will suffer. While this is a product of enlightened self-interest, many suburban developers in other areas are still not willing to add these fees to their homes. Chula Vista is fortunate to have the willingness of the developers who are 9-11 3 Recommendation: building in our eastern areas. This fmancing stream is then used to match state funds, and school construction goes foreword. In urban areas experiencing infill and demographic change financing is not so easy. When a new home is built or added on to, the owner must pay a set per foot fee with the maximum set by the state to offset school impacts. In Chula Vista that per foot fee is about $3.00 and covers both elementary and secondary schools. According to the school districts this amount is far short of what it takes to reach the match level to attract state funds for new construction. The other way to fmance schools is for the impacted area to establish a community fmance district (CFD) and then assess themselves a Mello Roos fee to pay for the school. This requires a 2/3 vote of approval from residents to pass. Most believe that such self-assessment is unlikely to receive the necessary votes, particularly in the lower income parts of the city and where there is a predominance of rental property by non-resident owners. There are three growth dynamics in play in the City's older urban areas. The first is that household size is increasing and the occurrence of more than one family per home/apartment is also on the rise. Both of these trends can be expected to produce more children per home/apartment. The second is the recently enacted right to build an accessory unit of 850 square feet on single-family lots, An 850 square foot unit is suitable to support a small 2 bedroom home/apartment. Depending upon the market, this could contribute an additional source of new students. And third, there is the possibility for residential intensification with increased densities across the range from town-home style, to low-mid and high- rise (8 to 14 stories) development. The acceptability of paying increased fees to pay for schools in western Chula Vista is unknown. As referenced earlier, areas experiencing demographic change and increased accessory units may not agree to a self-assessment. Residential intensification may be more agreeable to accept the fee but a school impact fee cannot be mandated. If the builder does not see the marketing advantage of having school availability they may not agree. The school districts and the City are aware of the impending demands that may be made on the districts' older established schools. These demands may exceed the school districts' capacity to house the students. The remedy to build additional capacity is hampered due to the lack of local financing. The GMOC believes that finding reasonable options for fmancing construction of new school capacity in the City's established neighborhoods is a timely consideration given the potential for growth in the next 5 years. Although it is the school districts responsibility to take the lead role in identifying fmancing, this issue will likely require multi-jurisdictional cooperation.. Schools are a key community resource that recognizes no 9-12 4 jurisdictional boundary. In that regard, the GMOC recommends that the City Council direct the City Manager to assemble a team of staff from the City, to assist school district staff in a review of financing options that are both feasible and politically acceptable, and report to the GMOC, on their fmdings. 3.11.3 School Construction Discussion: Both school districts serving Chula Vista, Chula Vista Elementary School District (CVESD) and the Sweetwater Union High School District (SUHSD) have engaged in significant building and expansion programs to match the areas rapid growth. The school district's efforts are commendable. At the same time the pressure to provide more classrooms and more schools to satisfY demand shows no sign of a slowdown. In response to this challenge each district is continuing to expand. 3.11.3 A School Construction - Elementary Schools Issue: In last year's GMOC report, it was recognized that the CVESD had maintained a pace of building a new elementary school a year not to mention the addition of relocatable classrooms on existing school sites. As one of last year's recommendations the GMOC recommended that over the next 2 years that 3 schools be built as compared to the usual 2. It has been reported that over the last year construction of 2 schools has been completed, one located in Rolling Hills Ranch and the other in EastLake. The next school is targeted to be in Otay Ranch Village 6. Construction will begin in November 2004 with completion planned for September 2005. Recommendation: That the City continues to work with the CVESD in identifying areas approved for residential development that will require the construction of elementary schools with the schools in Otay Ranch Village 6 and then Village II being on the critical path of development. 3.11.3 B School Construction - Middle and High Schools Issue: The SUHSD has completed the construction of 2 high schools and I middle school in the last two years. The only thing more remarkable than this achievement is that this added capacity at the high school level will be consumed in the next 2 years. It was reported last year by the SUHSD that another high school, starting with a 9th grade class, is 9-13 5 Recommendation: 3.11.4 Joint Use Issue: needed for the 2006-07 school year beginning in July or September of 2006. The SUHSD, the City of Chula Vista, and the development community are working in close coordination to meet this timeftame. Currently a new high school site has been identified with a purchase agreement in process, Construction funding is anticipated to be available, and plans used for the Otay Ranch High School are being reused so as to fast track the approval process. Timing will be contingent upon receiving the necessary environmental approvals and the ability to provide inftastructure to the location in a timely fashion so that construction can begin on schedule. City assistance has been requested and given to facilitate this effort. A moderated amount of possible delay due to rain has been included in the schedule. The GMOC commends the SUHSD and the City of Chula Vista for pursuing and staying on-track with an aggressive construction schedule. Should there be an extraordinary delay in the construction of high school 13 that will put completion of phase one past the 2006-07 opening date of September 2006, the City Council shall direct the City Manager to alert the GMOC and offer continued assistance, within the jurisdictional ability of the City, to the SUHSD in developing student accommodation options so that over crowding may not occur. Schools belong to the community. Naturally their priority is for education. But schools are also a community resource and should be potentially available for broader usage. In fact this philosophy is in practice with a joint use library, some joint use recreational resources, and joint use offacilities. The GMOC holds public workshops in school facilities and recognizes this as a form of joint use. The overall success of joint use activities depends upon the mutual benefit that can be derived between the City and the school districts. While some successes can be pointed to, there are also examples of failure. These failures have been attributed to organizational culture and the individual principal being able to act unilaterally in restricting such activities. Ultimately, the joint use agreement fails when the two parties do not see an overriding benefit. 9-14 6 . lr.,l Shone.s Inltnil'8tion'" "..n............".......,,""-~~~y...,_.'" oom"."''''' (/, '/1L Lo!f/!f/UN/(/f 7IQf/J MISSION- The mission of Shone's Inspiration is to develop Universally Accessible Play Environments and provide community outreach, education and transportation programs. Universally Accessible Playgrounds allow children with disabilities to play side by side with their able-bodied peers, creating a truly integrated play environment where compassion and acceptance flourish. Shane's Inspiration Universolly Accessible Ploygraunds are designed far children of all abilities, including children using wheelchairs and walkers. Although ramps have been installed in many typical playgrounds so that children with disabilities may enter, virtually all playgrounds require children to leave their wheelchairs, walkers or braces to acceSs play structures, making ploy practicolly impossible. In fact, sadly, most children with disabilities never have the chance to play independently with peers or siblings in a neighborhood playground. Universally AccesSible Playgrounds are built so that of the equipment is playable for children with disabilities while in their support opparatus. At the some time, our equipment is fun, imaginative ond appeals every bit as much to able- bodied children. HISTORY- Shane's Inspiration is the brainchild of Catherine Curry-Williams and Scott Williams and the realization of a dream that emerged from tragedy. Shane Alexander Williams was born in Los Angeles in 1997 with spinal muscular atrophy, a genetic disorder that leads to Severe disability. Within two weeks of his birth, Shane died. Knowing the life that their son would have led if he had lived, the Williams's soon realized that there waS no public playground in Los Angeles where Shane could have played. Giving his brief life special meaning, the Williams' devoted themselves to creating a playground where kids with and without disabilities could play together. With the help of many supporters, Catherine and Co-Founder Tiffany Harris, raised funds and partnered with the City of Los Angeles which allocated two acres of land in Griffith Park - a central location frequented by many - to create their first extraordinary playground. At this park, among many other features, wheelchair friendly ramps and bridges lead to platforms with steering wheels and other features that spark the imagination. Sandboxes are raised, swings are large and have high backs accommodating children with leg braces and mobility problems and basketball hoops are lowered. Equipment is designed to be sensory rich so that children with developmental and sensory disabilities such as Cerebral Palsy, Autism, Down Syndrome and visual impairments, can actively and safely participate. Shane's Inspiration at Griffith Park ServeS thousands of children. NEEDS AND GOALS- The opening of Shane's Inspiration in September 2000 was just the beginning for everyone involved at Shane's inspiration. Nationwide, there are five million children under the age of 15 with disabilities. The Los Angeles Unified School District alone has identified 160,000 children with some type of disability. Our goal is to have a Universally Accessible Playground within reach of every child with a disability. Shane's Inspiration opened its second playground, Aidans Place, in Westwood, California in December 2001, and the third playground located in Riverside County at the Carana-Norca Family YMCA, in August of 2003. Other Universally Accessible Playground projects currently in progress include Santa Clarita, Los Angeles Orthopaedic Hospital. Santa Fe Springs, East Los Angeles, San Clemente, Pico Rivera, Hansen Dam, Childrens Hospital Los Angeles, Ft. Collins, Colorado and Central Park in New York City. Shane's Inspiration is committed to providing young children a chance to experience some of childhood's most basic joys. ..;, .- , ,- - fJIIiiI .' " ,'.,.'

Historia- Shane's Inspiration es un invento de Catherine y Scott Williams y la realizacion de un sueno que resulto de una tragedia. Shane Alexander Williams nacio en Los Angeles en 1997 con atrofiada vertebral muscular, es una enfermedad generica produce danos severos de invalidez 0 impedimentos. Despues de dos semanas de haber nacido, Shane murio. Los padres de Shane se dieron cuenta que si Shane hubiera vivido, iba hacer bien dificil, porque no existia un Patio de Recreo en Los Angeles para ninos con impedimentos. Dado que por poco tiempo de tener a su hijo, los Williams decidieron crear un Patio de Recreo para que ninos con y sin impedimentos puedan jugar juntos y lIenos de felicidad. Con la ayuda y respoldo de mucha gente, Catherine Curry-Williams Co-fundador Tiffany Harris, con la ayuda generosa de personas y contribuciones, y ademas conjuntamente unidos con la ciudad de Los Angeles. La ciudad de Los Angeles cedio dos acres de terreno en Griffith Park- es una localizacion central frecuentada por muchos para crear el primer y extraordinario Patio de Recreo. En este porque, tiene rampas y puentes accesibles para las sillas de ruedas y esto Ie da un concepto favorable y a gusto para los ninos. Cajas de arena eston elevadas, los columpios son anchos y tienen a la porte de atras un soporte para acomodar los ninos con equipos de rodillera especial y problemas de movilidad y un aro de baloncesto mas bajito. EI equipo esta disenado pora proporcionar 10 mejor a ninos con Parolisis Cerebral, Autismo, Sindrome de Down e impedimentos visuales. Este equipo a su vez Ie do actividades y participacion segura. Shane's Inspiration en Griffith Park sirve a miles de ninos. Deberes Y Metas- La apertura de Shane's Inspiration fue en Septiembre del 2000, Y a su vez fue la primera vez para todos en Shane's Inspiration. Nacionalmente, hay cinco millones de ninos menores de 15 anos de edad con impedimentos. En el Distrito Escolar de Los Angeles tiene 160,000 mil ninos con algun impedimento. Nuestro meta es de tener un Patio de Recreo Universal Accesible para cada nino(a) con un impedimento. Shane's Inspiration abre su segundo Patio de Recreo lIamado Aidan's Place en Westwood, California en Diciembre del 2001. Otros, Patios de Recreos Universal Accesible estan actualmente en pro- greso, incluyendo Pacoima, Santa Fe Springs, Este de Los Angeles, San Clemente, Corona, Pico Rivera, Pan Pacific Park, Hansen Dam, Hospital de los Ninos en Los Angeles y Lago Balboa/Van Nuys.

Had Shane lived, he would have spent his life in a wheelchair. Because of a physical dis- ability, Shane would have been denied one of the most funda. mental rights of childhood: the right to play independently with friends and family at neighborhood and school play- grounds. This realization encoumged the Williams and their life-long friend Tiffany Harris to turn a tragedy into a vision that resulted in Shane's Inspiration...a non-profit organization dedicated to improving the lives of children with disabilities. The mission of Shane's Inspiration is to develop Universally Accessible Playgrounds and provide transportation, education, and community outreach programs. Shane's Inspiration's Playgrounds enhance a child's emotional, physical and social development, as well as teach compassion and acceptance. Shane's Inspiration gave a gift to thousands of Los Angeles children through the creation of an environment where all children can play together at the highest level of their ability. With the support of visionary community leaders, Shane's Inspiration rallied Los Angeles to create the first and largest Universally Accessible Playground in the Western United States: "'Shane's Inspiration." Located in Griffith Park, it provides two acres of in depend- ent play, sensory-rich and physically challenging equipment and the rare opportunity for disabled and able-bodied children to experience and accept one another. After "Shane's Inspiration" opened in 2000, the organization was inundated with requests from families who wanted accessible play in their community. This prompted them to work with a family, who also suffered the loss of a son, to design and build the second Universally Accessible Playground in Los Angeles: "Aidan's Place" located on Sepulveda Boulevard in West Los Angeles. Since that time, the organization has helped raise millions of dollars, initiated over 30 Universally Accessible Playground proj- ects throughout Southern California and beyond, and created community outreach programs that educate the public as well as help dissolve barriers for the disabled youth. This is not just another playground... It is a symbol of hope and love and a beacon of joy for thousands of children in our city. - Fonner Mayor Richard Riordan speaking at the opening of Shane's Inspiration Playground Our playgrounds In Southern California alone, tens of thousands of children are excluded from traditional neighborhood and school playgrounds because they are disabled. Most playgrouods provide equipment that is not easily accessible... wheelchairs get trapped in sandpits and leg braces get caught in narrow pathways. This leaves disabled children sitting on the sidelines... watching as their able-bodied friends and siblings play. Because there are so few opportunities for children with disabilities to interact with their ahle.bodied peers, many children spend their lives isolated and stigmatized. Excluding them from play environments at an early age hinders their ability to develop emo- tionally, cognitively and physically. Studies have proven that integrated play helps disabled children develop: fine and gross motor skills; receptive communication skills; cerebral functions; physical strength; and social skills, including independence and self esteem. Integrated play also gives able-bodied children the opportunity to experience and accept disabled children as equals. At Shane's Inspiration's Universally Accessible Playgrounds the sensory-rich equipment is independently playable for children with disabilities while exciting and challenging for able-bodied children. Our playgrounds delight all children, providing a place where compassion and acceptance can flourish. "Shane's Inspiration" Opened September 2000 ... Griffith Park, Los Angeles, CA "Aidan's Place"...

Our Impact on the Community: WE BUILD BRIDGES for the disabled community by creating accessible, integrated play environments in all neighborhoods... regardless of socio-economic conditions. WE DISSOLVE THE BARRIERS of discrimination by working to educate children, parents, teachers, communities, municipalities and government agencies about the needs of special children. WE RAISE THE BAR on accessibility standards. Even the decade-old Americans with Disabilities Act only provides the mini- mum standards for integration. Our playground designs extend far beyond those guidelines into the future of what accessible play will become. WE FACILITATE PLAY! Each month, we bring together over a hundred children with disabilities and their families to our complet- ed playgrounds. The fun-filled day includes games, face painting, snacks, and making new friends while playing on the playground! Our Programs , 1(; .1 THE CATALYST PROGRAM: Shane's Inspiration playground professionals guide families, communities and municipali- ties through the playground development process. Support includes guidance in such areas as; playground planning develop- ment meetings, creating and managing a budget, building community support, navigating government regulations, securing land for the site, choosing and negotiating with vendors, fundraising, and evaluating the success of each playground. The Catalyst Program has an average of twenty projects in development per year. COMMUNITY OUTREACH PROGRAM: This prognun increases the use of the playgrounds while building public awareness of the tremendous benefits of integrated play for both disabled and able-bodied children and their families. Outreach services include: a free bussing/field trip program that brings 2,000 children annually to the existing playgrounds; public speaking engagements at local schools, Regional Centers, hospitals and communities; newsletters targeting disabled children and adults; a newsletter written by and for children with disabilities, their peers and siblings; and hospital research collaborations that identify existing disabilities and their corresponding needs. Another major component of this program is Shane's Club, a monthly play date at one of our playgrounds that brings children of all abilities together to talk, make friends, and play together. TECHNICAL SUPPORT & DESIGN PROGRAM: Each playground has a unique, community-driven design. Through "Community Options & Priorities Sessions," our Project Management Team works closely with the community and children to create a cohesive design that meets the needs of a variety of disabled children, able.bodied children and community mem- bers. Included in the design oversight process are special education teachers, rehabilitation therapists and other health-care professionals.

Accomplishment Highlights The City of Los Angeles passed a motion in support of establishing 21 Universally Accessible Playgrounds throughout Los Angeles. A recent Prop 40 allocation will support this motion through the development of Universally Accessible Playgrounds in every Los Angeles district which does not currently have one. Shane's Inspiration was honored with the first "Heroes for Health Award" by Good Housekeeping Magazine and General Electric. A featured article in Good Housekeeping Magazine was followed by an interview with Matt Lauer on "The Today Show" and an awards ceremony at Carnegie Hall in New York City. Shane's Inspiration was the recipient of the 2003 Access Award from the Los Angeles County Commission on Disabilities. Our playgrounds have received numerous awards, including: "Best Playground" from Los Angeles Magazine's" I 0 I Things to Shout About," the L.A. Parent Award for Outstanding Playgrounds and the Architectural Landscape Design Award from the L.A. Business Council. You Can Help... Shane's Inspiration's message is simple: It is the birthright of every child to play in the park.

OUR STANDARDS: Our commitment is to create safe play environments that are enjoyable and challenging regradless of their physical or cognitive ability. The final objective is to create a fully integreated play environment so children will have an opportunity to socialize and develop friendships. To accomplish these objectives, we design playgrounds that meet the following standards: 1. All materials used meet safety standards for city/state/federal requirements, such as American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), United States Consumer Product Safety Commission (USCPSC), NPSI (National Playground Safety Institute) and the Americans with Disabilities Act Accessibility Guidelines (ADAAG). 2. Shane's Inspiration '5 equipment and designs provide the highest level of interactive play available for all children. 3. Each of Shane's Inspiration's designs is unique and commu- nity-driven. We facilitate Community Options & Priority Sessions to ascertain a community's needs and desires for multi-generational play environments. 4. We collaborate with landscape architects to create a theme for each playground and its surrounding environment. 5 We consult with our Professional Advisory Board (PAB), which consists of doctors, physical therapists, psychologists, child development specialists and occupational therapists, to help us determine the play environment needs of communi- ties that may have a high incidence of a particular disability. 6. Our equipment is designed to be challenging. sensory-rich, age-appropriate and to encourage cerebral and physical development.. 7. Shane's Inspiration's Director of Design, who has back- ground in landscape architecture and construction project management, provides a Design Review for all playgrounds. 8. Shane's Inspiration designs are environmentally-conscious. It is our commitment to incorporate and preserve each site's natural surroundings. 9. We make every effort to insure usage of the playgrounds by applying a community outreach model to each project. This helps connect families with Shane's Inspiration's resources, such as play dates, special transportation and educational programs. 10. All playgrounds receive the Shane's Inspiration Design Seal of Approval when they have met our criteria. Our design commitment to you OUR COMMITMENT is to the spirit of the law: For over ten years, public facilities have been implementing the mandatory guidelines outlined in the Americans with Disabilities Act. However, most playgrounds fall short of achieving the true spirit of the law, which isfull equality for dis- abled individuals in body, mind and heart. In the world of a special-needs child, full equality is essential, not optional. OUR DESIGN PROCESS: We recognize that equipment is only half of a playground.. .the other half is the rich, imaginative world of the children, their families and the community. The reason we turn to the community for design ideas is simple. Children know what they love to play 00. Parents know what they need so that their families can play together. Senior Citizens know what elements serve their needs and allow them to play with their grandchildren. To build the best possible playground, we invite these community experts to participate in Community Options & Priorities Session. Other community participants include special education teachers, rehabilitation therapists and health pro- fessionals who further shape the design from their perspectives. OUR PROFESSIONAL ADVISORY BOARD: We combine real-world needs with proven therapeutic and child development theories and existing disability research. We have compiled a team of experts consisting of Physical Therapist, Children's Hospital; Nursing Director, Children's Hospital Los Angeles, USCfUAP; Parent Family Resource Director, Children's Hospital Los Angeles, USCIUAP; Pediatric Physical Therapist; Child, Family and Adult Psychotherapist; Developer of Children's Programs for Alma Family Services; Parent Advocate for Children with Disabilities; Clinical Psychologist; Community Services Specialist, Eastern Los Angeles Regional Center; Occupational Therapist; L.A.U.S.D. Early Childhood Special Educator; Educational Director, Center for Disabilities Studies and Community Inclusion. These experts lend their expertise in the area of disabilities such as Autism, Down Syndrome, Cerebral Palsy, Sensory Development and Mobility Development. Their unique insight into the rehabilitative play process provides an opportunity for our design team to integrate the needs of these children into fun, state- of-the-art equipment, which serves the needs of typically abled-bodied children as well. Design In the words of one phySically-challenged child: "At most playgrounds, I have to crawl out of my wheelchair if I want to play. It makes me feel like an ant, with all these giant kids running around me. My wheelchair is my legs. Would you want to take your legs off to play?" Our unique designs include... HORIZONTAL LADDERS I UPPER BODY PEDDLERS encourages multiple motor skills: reaching, pushing, pulling, releasing and grasping. Builds upper-body strength RUBBERIZED SURFACING encourages complex motor skills: walking, running and climbing, which is promoted through ambulatory games such as hide-and-go-seek or tag. Builds coordination and lower body strength. COMMUNICATION STRATEGIES games and signage teach a variety of communication skills: following verbal instructions, learning non~verbal communication, practicing sign language or use of pictorial symbols PLAY AS THERAPY used for rehabilitation: children utilize play equipment to practice physi- cal therapy exercises, such as extending legs, trunk, arms or lifting I pulling to strengthen muscles and coordination. MAGICAL WATER AND SOUND WALLS EMBEDDED WITH SHELLS. ANIMAL SHAPES AND WHIMSICAL SOUND PUCKS which stimulate tactile senses for sight-impaired children SHADED. ENCLOSED STORY CIRCLES provides reduced stimuli for children with conditions such as Autism, Down Syndrome or Cerebral Palsy Shane's Inspiration gathers all of these ideas and takes them back to our Director of Design, Virginia Hatley. Virginia Hatley is a professional Landscape Architect and holds a Bachelor of Science degree from California Polytechnic University, Pomona. She is a certified National Institute of Parks Safety Inspector and brings over 17 years of experience as a Landscape Architect and Project Manager to Shane's Inspiration. Virginia has worked with the City of Los Angeles to revitalize recreational parks, trails, equestrian facilities and a variety of other projects. She is the primary Playground Designer for Shane's Inspiration and has a tremendous amount of experience in creating community~driven collaborative designs. Our design team works with government agencies, landscape and architecture professionals to make sure these designs are both safe and feasible. The result is a high-quality, multi-generational Universally Accessible Playground built by and for the community. "! am from Richland Avenue Elementary Schoo/. ! use crutches.

In the coming years, I will have the great pleasure of overseeing the application of $9.5 million designated by the State to develop Universally Accessible Playgrounds throughout the City of Los Angeles. This generous allocation was inspired by Shane's Inspiration's extraordinary vision and community outreach, which lead to efforts by Assemblyman Tony Cardenas to champion this funding program. The award ceremony and press conference which took place at Aidan's Place provided a wonderful opportunity to meet the children with disabilities and their families who so freely played on this unique playground. I was especially moved by the father who spoke at the ceremony on the important role Shane's Inspiration has played in his family's life, allowing all of his children to finally have the opportunity to play together. Jt is my commitment, through partnership with Shane's Inspiration, to make Los Angeles the preeminent leader in the area of Universally Accessible play. The $9.5 million will create a playground in each City Council district, making Los Angeles the first in the nation to establish a comprehensive recreational plan to serve children of all abilities through the medium of play. The collective work of the Los Angeles Recreation and Parks Department with the expertise and vision of Sh8.Q.e's Inspiration will create a prototype to inspire other municipalities to create these extraordinary environments for the children of their community.

Photograph by Todd BigelOW Shane's Inspiration, a playground in Los Angeles' Grif- fith Park, has just about everything a kid needs to have a good time. There's a play structure resem- bling a rocket ship. Swings, some with simple seats and others with straps. stand next to a sandpit that's stocked with digging toys. Nearby, a panel spells out "I feel good" in English and braille. Feeling good is what Shane's Inspiration is all about. It's also revolutionary-the frrst universally accessible play. ground in the West. Opened in 2000, Shane's Inspiration exists because of Catherine Curry.Williams and Tiffany Harris, friends and fclJow actresses who had produced plays together. In 1997, Curry-Williams's first child, Shane Alexander, was born with spinal muscular atrophy. He lived only 14 days. A few months after her son's death, Curry-Williams read about a woman in West Hartford, Connecticut, whose child had the same disease as Shane. Amy Jaffe Bar7.ach had built a playground in her chil.d's memory and started a nonprofit organization to promote universally accessible play environmentS. "It felt like God saying, 'Here's something to gct you out of your bed,'" Curry-Williams says today. She and Harris discovered that the city of Los Angeles did not have a single fully accessible playground, leading them to ponder how they might bring Barzaeh's concepts out WesL A place where every~ can play The difference between playgrounds equipped with a single wheelchair ramp and what Hanis calls truly "playable" structures can break a child's heart. "A ramp would lead to 32 SUNSET nowhere," Harris says, "just getting kids closer to the things they can't play on. That closes the door 011 play- ing with other children." T ogcther, she and Curry-Williams raised $1 million to build Shane's inspi- ration, forming a nonprofit by the same name along the way. The goal was to integrate: able-bodicd and dis. abled kids in a 2.acre world of play trains, castles, ships, and dinosaurs. Visit the playground and you will see that their plan has worked_ Chil- dren, says Harris, "are all just there playing at the park-there arc no special sections." Curry-Williams and Harris had stumbled upon a vast need. Mter the opening, the nearby community of Westwood asked the duo for assis- tance in building another playground. With help from the family of Aidan Gaffney, a local disabled boy, they raised $900,000. The playgrouud was christened Aidan's Place when it opened, months after its namesake passed away. The two are now helping to build more than 40 playgrounds, including 21 in Los Angeles and others in cities from San Diego to Mumbai, India. Barzach describes the women's efforts as "superhuman." Today, Curry-Williams and Harris have 3-year-old daughters, born five weeks apart. When the girls play to- gether, they often prer=d to be moms going off to work. "Good-bye," Curry-Williams's daugh- ter, Grace, will tell her friend Jade. "I'm going to bui1d playgrounds." .

SEPTEMBER 2003 33 (December 2002 Issue) The 2002 Heroes for Health Awards Call them angels of well ness, or saviors of the sick.

She lost a child -- and found a loving cause * Catherine Curry-Williams and Tiffany Harris (PHOTO: LARSEN AND TALBERT) In the summer of 1996, life seemed perfect for 37-year-old Catherine Curry-Williams of Los Angeles. Just wed, she discovered that her honeymoon had produced the most precious of souvenirs: a baby. On March 28, 1997, seven-pound Shane Alexander Williams entered the world. Then, suddenly, time stood still. Shane was born with the severest possible form of spinal muscular atrophy, a rare genetic neuromuscular disease that left him para- lyzed and unable to breathe without a respirator. There was no cure. A fleeting 14 days after baby Shane was born, he was removed from the respirator and placed in his parents' embrace. Within moments, he passed away. For months, Curry-Williams, an actress, felt completely drained. But as the one-year anniversary of her child's death approached, Curry-Williams and her husband sensed a need to honor their son. Around this time, Curry-Williams began hearing stories about another woman in Connecticut, who had lost her child to the same disease that took Shane. She was becoming known for creating a playground designed specifically to meet the needs of disabled youngsters -- as a tribute to her son. Inspired, Curry-Williams called her best friend, Tiffany Harris and the two watched a video about the Connecticut playground. "In that instant, I knew I'd found a new pur- pose in life," Curry-Williams says. And in Harris, she had a willing partner. After exten- sive research and many talks with parents of disabled kids, Curry-Williams and Harris created Shane's Inspiration, a nonprofit organization, in June 1998. For more than two years, the duo made their case for a Universally Accessible Playground to anyone who would listen. Word of the women's crusade reached then-Los Angeles City Councilman Mike Feuer, who helped secure two acres of land in Griffith Park in L.A. for their project. On September 21, 2000, Shane's Inspiration playground opened. Today, Shane's Inspiration has more visitors than any other playground in Los Angeles. The women have since opened a second Universally Accessible Playground in Westwood, and plans are in the works for some two dozen new sites. Curry-Williams and Harris refuse to take credit for these exceptional achievements. "We feel humbled by the opportunity to do this work. The challenged children we serve - and their families - are the heroes here." Of course, even heroes need their guardian angels to bravely lead the way. organizatio.naJspotlight BUILDING EXCEPTIONAL PLAYGROUNDS... Exceptional COl11munities By Terry Marks ^ fter losing their son, Shane Alexander, /"\to spinal muscular atrophy in 1007, Catherine Cun:v~ WIlliams and Scott W1lliam.~ had a vision that. they, along with Iheir life-long friend TIJIany Hams, turned into I'PAlity. Had Shane lived, h(~ would have spent hie:; life in a wheelchair. Shane would have been denied onl' of the most ftmdamental rights of childhood: tll<' right to play inde- pendently with friends and family at a neighborhood playground; Shane's In- spiration, a non-profit organization deili- eated to improving the lives of children with disabilities, was (TE".ated to build uni- versally 3Cecssible playgrounds that allow children of all abilities to play alongside one another. Five years have passed since the ineep- tion of this vision, three playgrowuis have been built and over twenty-one more are in liB j (:eptioua!; Parent development But Shane's Inspiration also accomplished something no one planned on; they bUilt communities. Shane's Inspiration's first playgronnd, named after Shane Williams, is local.ed. in Griffith Park, providing two acres of inde- pendent pl"ll, sensory-rich and physically cha.Ilenging equipment and the rare oppor- tunity for disabled and able-bodied chil- dren to experience and accept one another. After Shaml's In.<;piration was fonned in 2000, the organization was innndated with The organization has injtJated 21 other Universally Accessible Playground projects throughout Southern California and beyond. requests from families who wanted acCl.'S- sible play in their communities. This prompted them to work with a fan1ily to design and build the second Universally Accessible PIayground in Los Angeles, "Aidan's Place,'" located in West Los Angeles. The third playgrOlUld, in Corona, CA, wa.<; completed in August of this year and that community just recently celebrat- ed their opening day.

Added to this effort was a free bussing! field trip program that brings 2,000 ehil- dren annually to the existing playgrounds. In addition, Shane's Inspiration outreach indudf"-s public speaking engagemp..nts at local schools, regional centers, hospitals and communities; newsletters targeting children and adults with disabilities; a newsletter written by and for children with disabilities, their peers and sihlings; HIld hospital researcll collaborations that iden- tify existing disabilities and their corre- sponding need 'i. Because there have been so few opportu- nities for children with disabilities to inter- act with their able-bodied peers, many chil- dren have spent their lives isolated and stig- matized. Excluding them from play environ- ments at an early age hinders their ability to develop emotionally, cognitively and physi- cally. Studies have proven that integrated play helps childrf!n with dic:;abilities develop fine and gross motor skills, receptive com- munication skills, cerebral functions, physi- cal strength and social skills, including inde- penden(:e and self esteem. Integrated play also gives able-bodied cllildren the opportunity to experience and accept children with disabilities a<i equals. At Shane's Inspiration's Universally Accessible Playgrounds, the sensory-rich equipment is independently playable for children with disabilities while exciting and challenging for able-bodied children. These playgrotUlds delight all children, providing a place where compassion and aL'Ceptance can nourish. The pIaygrounds not only create oppor- tunities for children of all abilities to meet, but opportunities for parents and siblings as well. Those who were hesitant to take their child with a disability to a public play- ground for fp.aT of discrimination now have an opport:uI\iq" to meet other families who have similar life experiences. This community is growing by leaps and b01mds. Friendships are Conning, families are corning to know one another and sib- lings are playing alongside their special needs brothers and sisters for the first time. In addition, every day Shane's Inspiration witnesses new compassion and acceptance as they watch their oomrmmity grow and the chUdren flourish. Shane's Inspiration was recently hon- ored with the first "Heroes for Health Award" by Good Housekf'<'ping Mag- azine and General Electric, followed by an interview with Matt Lauer on '"'The Today Show." Our playgrounds have re- ceived numerous awards, including: "Best Play-ground" from Los Angeles Magazine's "WI Things to Shout About," the LA Parent Award for Outstanding Playgrounds and the Architectural Landscape Design Award from the L.A.

This letter will take the place of the copy you requested. Our records indicate that by a determination letter issued in November 1999, your organization was recognized as exempt from federal income tax under section 501 (c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Because your.organization was newly created, we did not at that time make a final determination of its foundation classification under section 509(a) of the Code. However, based on information submitted with the application, we classified your organization as one that is not a private foundation within the meaning of section 509(a) of the Code because it can reasonably expect to be a publicly supported organization described in sections 509(a)(1) and 170(b)(1)(A)(vi). According to this advance ruling, your organization will be treated as a publicly-supported organization and not as a private foundation until the end of the advance ruling period as shown above. Within 90 days from the end of the advance ruling period, your organization must submit to us information needed to determine whether it has met the requirements of the applicable support test during the advance ruling period. This information is currentiy supplied on the Form 8734, Support Schedule for Advance Ruling Period. Grantors and contributors may rely on the determination that your organization is not a private foundation until 90 days after the end of its advance ruling period. If the organization submits the required information within 90 days, grantors and contributors may continue to rely on the advance determination until the Service makes a final determination of your organization's foundation status. The classification discussed in paragraph three (3) was based on the assumption that your organization's operations would continue as stated in its application. If your organization's sources of support, or its character, method of operations, or purposes have changed, please let us know so we can consider the effect of the change on your organization's exempt status and foundation status. . Your organization is required to file Form 990, Return of Organization Exempt from Income Tax, only if its gross receipts each year are normally more than $25,000. If a return is required, it must be filed by the 15th day of the fifth month after the end of the organization's annual accounting period. The law imposes a penalty of $20 a day, up to a maximum of $10,000, when a return is filed late, unless there is reasonable cause for the delay.

SUBMITTED BY: REVIEWED BY: BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: Not applicable. RECOMMENDATION: That Council adopt the resolution authorizing the street closures of portions of Marina Parkway and G Street. DISCUSSION: An agreement titled "Relocation Agreement by and among City of Chula Vista, Redevelopment Agency ofthe City ofChula Vista, San Diego Unified Port District and ROHR, Inc. operating as BF Goodrich Aerospace Aerostructures Group", dated July 13, 1999 (Agreement) requires the ultimate abandonment or vacation of portions ofG Street and Marina Parkway. The Agreement requires the City to process the abandonment or vacation of the current alignment of Marina Parkway north of the proposed H Street extension and vacate G Street east ofthe new alignment of Marina Parkway (see Exhibit "A"). The City retains discretion to approve or deny the abandonment or vacation when it is brought to the City Council for action. This street abandonment or vacation is to talœ place only after the Port District grants right-of-way or an Irrevocable Offer of Dedication (IOD) for the new alignment of Marina Parkway over Port District property. At this time, the Port is undergoing master planning for the bayftont and is therefore unable to accurately predict where the future realigned Marina Parkway will be located. The Port estimates that it will take another year before planning studies are far enough along to grant the right-of-way or an IOD to the City for the future Marina Parkway. Therefore, in order to work cooperatively with Goodrich and the Port, the City has agreed to process a street closure until the Port provides the right-of-way or IOD for the future Marina Parkway. Goodrich has requested that the same portions of Marina Parkway and G Street that the City has agreed to process a vacation or abandonment for under the Agreement, be closed to public traffic at this time, so that they can talœ advantage of the land for temporary purposes such as parking and storage (see Exhibit "B") subject to an encroachment permit. Their request stems from 10-1 Page 2, Item \ 0 Meeting Date 10/26/04 the fact that the street abandonment or vacation was to been completed by 2003 according to the Agreement. If Council approves the closures of portions of Marina Parkway and G Street, traffic will be diverted onto Sandpiper Way and G Street until the Port District constructs the new realigned Marina Parkway per .the Agreement. This is a lightly used segment of Marina Parkway and 'G Street primarily only being used by Goodrich employees and it's associated businesses. Traffic counts prepared by staff indicate less than five hundred trips per day in either direction. Fencing and new entry gates will be provided at the street closure points with adequate signage of the street closures for motorists. The Engineering Division has reviewed and approved the traffic control and fencing plans submitted by the Port. City Police and Fire Departments have been noticed ofthe street closures. Emergency services and utility companies will still have access to the closed portions of Marina Parkway and G Street through the new entry gates located at the closure points. The Port notified all its tenants about the street closure in the area including the RV Park, the two marinas, restaurants and commercial businesses. Port staff conveyed to the City that none of the tenants indicated any concern over the street closure. Coastal development review does not apply because the proposed temporary roadway closure does not meet the definition of development per Section 19.83.002 of the City's Coastal Development Permit Procedures. The Environmental Review Coordinator has reviewed the proposed activity for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined that the activity is not a "Project" as defined under Section 15378 of the State CEQA Guidelines; therefore, pursuant to Section 15060(c)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines the activity is not subject to CEQA. Thus, no environmental review is necessary. FISCAL IMP ACT: None to the City. The Port District is funding preparation of all traffic control and signing plans and the installation of all fencing, protective barriers and signage. All staff costs associated with processing of the street closure will be reimbursed from Port District plan review deposits.

Presented by Approved as to form by Jack Griffin Director of General Services 0--- ~ AnTI Moore City Attorney J:\Attorney\RESO\Street\Street Closure - Goodrich 2 10-10 COUNCIL AGENDA STATEMENT Item I ¡ Meeting Date 10/26/04 ITEM TITLE: Resolution authorizing the appropriation of additional funds to the "GIS - Orthophotography/Topography Project (GGI83)" for the provision of procuring the iStreetView imagery and software program. Director of Management and ~ormation Servíce~ Director of General Services (}16-,../1/ Director of Public Works Operationsr CityManager~p~ (4/Sths Vote: X No~ SUBMITTED BY: REVIEWED BY: iStreetView™ is a dynamic, street-level image set that can be integrated with the City's current Geographic Information System (GIS) and will be of significant assistance to a number of programs in multiple City departments. It also provides a web-based viewer that will allow city staff to simulate navigating down our streets, permitting them to stop at any time and pan around. The interface that City staff will use is very intuitive, requiring very little training. During the Fiscal Year 2002-2003 CIP budget process, staff informed Council that the existing orthophotography is several years old and will require the acquisition of 6 inch orthophotography of the City, supplemented with two foot contours (CIP GGI83). The iStreetViewTM is a compliment to the original scope of work and update of the City's Geographical Information System and will be utilized by almost all City Departments. The overall cost, which includes an estimate from @City, Inc. in the amount of $76,650 ($146/linear mile) plus tax. At this time staff is recommending appropriating additional funds in the amount of $30,000 to the existing CIP, "GIS - Orthophotography/Topography Project (GG183)", as necessary to procure the iStreetView imagery and software program that will enhance the City's orthophotography of the City. RECOMMENDATION: That Council authorize the appropriation of additional funds ftom the Transit Capital Fund to the "GIS - Orthophotography/Topography Project (GG183)" for the provision of procuring the iStreetView imagery and software program. BOARDS/COMMISSION: N/A DISCUSSION: In an effort to integrate the latest technology available into our systems that would benefit the City and its citizens, staff has been actively seeking programs that can be integrated with other data that the City has stored into GIS. iStreetView™ has that capability. iStreetView consists of a set of 6 images shot simultaneously in different directions (ftont, right-ftont, right-rear, rear, 11-1 Page 2, Item L Meeting Date left-rear, ftont-front) plus a 360-degree panoramic image. These shots are taken from a vehicle every 10 meters as it travels all of our City's streets. However, iStreetViewTM consists of more than a set of images, it also provides a web-based viewer that will allow city staff to simulate navigating down our streets, permitting them to stop at any time and pan around. These images can be made available on our Internet for general public use or for targeted uses such as promoting selected tourist sites. Several Departments within the City have expressed interest and are eager to utilize the program to assist them in proactively managing their projects. They can be of great assistance to our asset management staff in Engineering and Public Works. The City has begun to build an Inftastructure Deficiency database and having these images on- line can save significant time in identifying deficiencies. The iStreetViewTM database will be extremely valuable in providing immediate imagery of the City's surface inftastructure including pavement, curbs, gutters, sidewalks, raised medians, fire hydrants, driveways, striping, signage, traffic signals, bikeways, parking areas, wheelchair ramps, utility boxes and vaults, overhead utility lines, street trees/landscaping, transit stations, and other street furniture. Said imagery will enable staff to immediately analyze and assess infrastructure questions and to promptly respond to citizen requests. '. Our Transit program can benefit greatly ftom iStreetViewTM when planning new transit routes and siting new bus stops. It also allows them the capability to quickly respond to changes in bus routes offering various alternative routes when the need arises. With this imagery and software, City planners will have the capability to see actual street and sidewalk conditions related to environmental impact reviews. They can also use iStreetView images to support zoning reviews. Various stakeholders during public meetings will be able to share a common perspective on the city conditions under discussion. iStreetView™ has proven to be a time and cost saving asset in an annexation project for Hayward, CA. The applications are multiple and will be of great use to the City. Public safety has expressed strong interest in using the imagery for crime analysis and crime prevention. In particular, the Police Department can use the iStreetView™ images to plan crime response tactics based on a review of street conditions. SWAT units can conduct pre-deployment sites reviews for developing field tactical procedures and perimeters. Police planners also can advise patrol officers about site access conditions and vehicle routes. The benefits of the program far outweigh the initial cost of procuring the iStreetViewTM imagery and software. After analysis of the program and its complimentary benefits to the City's Orthophotography system, staff is recommending that Council approve the appropriation of additional funds to procure the iStreetView™ imagery and software. Since this is in addition to the original scope of work described in CIP GG 183, staff will, in the upcoming fiscal year 2005- 2006 budget, request additional funds to complete the original scope of work. There is no significant impact to the progress of the completing the original scope of work since the orthophotographywas acquired much later than originally anticipated. This delay was solely due to the lack of good flying weather until late September 2004. The next phase of the orthophotography is the generation of two-foot contours, which will not be ready to begin until 11-2 Page 3, Item-.iL Meeting Date beginning of fiscal year 2005-2006 at which time staff will request additional funds through the CIP budget process as necessary to complete the project. FISCAL IMPACT: The City has about 525 miles of street to be imaged. As mentioned previously the overall cost includes an estimate ftom @City, Inc. in the amount of $76,650 ($146/linear mile) plus tax. There are available funds in the proj ect for the cost of the original scope of work; however, additional funds will be required to facilitate the expanded scope of work and purchase of the iStreetViewTM program. Staff is recommending appropriating additional funds in the amount of $30,000 ftom the Transit Capital Fund to the existing CIP, "GIS - Orthophotography/Topography Project (GGI83)", as necessary to procure the iStreetView™ imagery and software program that will enhance the City's orthophotographyof the City. There are no additional operating or licensing costs to utilize the software. In the future should the City decide to supplement the imagery provided, there could be additional costs, which would be addressed through the capital improvement budget process.
