Your rapid and decisive actions are essential to prevent a travesty for California. There are conflicting Navy actions that place San Diego's megacenter status at risk by eroding the available facilities at the Grace Murray Hopper Service Center. There are alternatives available for implementation of the Navy's West Coast Realignment Project without impact to our ability to perform as a megacenter. The success of both missions can be guaranteed if one of these other alternatives is implemented. The attached letters to Mr. Duncan Hunter and a recent press release provide detailed information. We ask you to intercede on our behalf to ensure our retention of megacenter status. The current congressional inquiry addresses the limited issues of BRAC 93. However, it overlooks the opportunity to act today for the future of California. Due to the on-going conflict, the Defense Information Service Agency (DrSA) is preparing an alternative plan which will transfer our data processing workload to Gunther Air Force Base in Alabama. DISA will not battle the Navy. YOU CAN. While we do not discount the tremendous value of the West Coast Realignment Project to the Navy, California does not stand to gain or lose from its implementation. Loss of megacenter status and eventual closure of this data processinq center could impact local and state economies by as much as $75M annually. Your influence will prevent the loss of high tech jobs today and cement the surety of gaining more in future consolidations. c": f§:lif(;) WRlnEN COMMUNICA TIO:i~S ~ itJ9j ~~! -'"--_.,._,-~--- Thank you in advance for your efforts.

Enclosed is a letter from the Defense Information Systems Agency dated August 30, 1993. This letter requests current plans for our facility and clearly identifies the impact of diverting available resources. We will lose our tenuous mega center status. Result - A substantial loss to San Diego. The Grace Murray Hopper Service Center will not survive the next round of the BRAC commission. This facility was uniquely designed to provide high technology data processing services and has been identified as a valuable resource for DoD consolidations. certain factions of the Navy are disregarding this higher purpose and usurping these resources in an underhanded and illegal manner. These actions are waste, fraud and abuse. Your immediate intervention is requested to keep San Diego on the map as a mega center for the West Coast. Thank you for your efforts and time.

SUBJECT : San Diego Megacenter L Recent deliberations of the Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) Commission have concluded with a recommendation that 16 Depa~ment of Defense Information Processing Centers (IPCs) should be designated as megacenters. The megacenter designa- tion means that the 16 IPCs will serve as the consolidation points for the hundreds of IPCs which are recommended for closure in the Military Departments' Defense Management Review Decision (DMRD) 924 consolidation plans and the 1993 BRAC cycle. The BRAC recommendations are expected to become . law as early as the end of September 1993. '. - 2.

The facility was designed to provide reliable, accurabe, tLmely and economical data processing services. Optimum flexibility was considered in the design of the Grace Murray Hopper Service Center in anticipation of 'future advancements in computer technology. Conceptually, the design considered four requirements: Flexibility, Security, Operational and Energy Efficiency, and Growth Capability. Its innovative features include a state-of-the-art local area network, cost saving cogeneration power plant, modern well-equipped training labs and programmed expansion capacity to allow NARDAC San Diego to continue to provide quality, professional services into the next century. This is not going to happen. 2. An effort is underway to reallocate a large portion of our computer resources to build an Automated Technical Control Facility (ATCF). Although this title sounds enchanting, the ATCF is in essence a switching station. I feel that this is inappropriate for the following reasons: o San Diego has been designated as a mega port for the Navy. The Grace Hurray Hopper Service Center has been designated as a mega center for data processing. The grand design is to consolidate workload into regional data processing centers. The side benefit is to retain and possibly create more jobs for San Diego. o Admiral Tuttle and Captain Lawton appear to be driving the ATCF project based on their own agenda with a total disregard for Navy and DoD plans. They have been quoted to say that DoD can have the data processing functions but can move them elsewhere. This would result in a significant loss to San Diego. ~ o The stockton site is perfectly capable of accommodating the proposed ATCF plan without incurring major costs. Yet, $2 million dollars has already been allocated for the relocation. Total costs are estimated at $3.4 million dollars. To make matters worse, the resources currently being reallocated will not be sufficient to accommodate further plans. o The facility modification is being performed in a disjointed, non- specific manner and without the benefit of a detailed Plan of Action and Milestones (POA&M). There has been a total disregard for the concerns being voiced by Data Processing Installation (DPI) technical personnel and numerous I requests to postpone construction until a detailed POA&M can be completed have been ignored. o The modifications being performed will interfere with our ability to execute planned workload consolidations. Though floor space is an issue, the major area of concern is power. The facility is equipped with two 500 KVA and one 750 KVA Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) systems. The total capacity of these systems is required for planned technological advances and consolidation efforts. Plans are to reallocate the largest of these systems to the ATCF. o The Base Electronics System Engineering Plan (BESEP) states that radiation hazards will be a problem on the roof of the facility due to the planned antenna installation. Electromagnetic radiation has been proven to be a hazard to personnel, fuels, and ordnance. Does this not require that an environmental impact study be done prior to execution of this plan? o The ATCF project gives no consideration to supporting consolidation efforts and will impact the DPI's ability to perform in this capacity. ~ . . ~-(p ~ ,,'---' . ... ,. ._-_.,~ .. ..,,«". .~-,' ,'_0_ _.____ ...:....._:~:;..._.____._ '_'. ~."-" -.-" ---- ---....- ~""-- ....."'-,-;..,- ::--- ._~.;~_.:- --- ._..- .-- - -... ---- -"- .-- '-", --:"-'- . - --- ~- -.--- -'-::::::-_~-=.;::;:'i'.,_,,';",·-,.,._ ._m "',' ."':.C. _~·."",",,-___.L_ ..... ."':._,:-~:._".''''-;.~--'-' ~ .. ..."_~""!_~ "'-"--. 0 The final issue is funding. Though our commands merged in FY9l, we have never merged funding authorities. The NARDAC side of the house is o~rating with Defense Business Operating Funds (DBOF) and the NAVCOMSTA side of the house is operating under Appropriated Funding (OM,&N). This building was equipped with furnishings and equipment paid for by DBOF funds which in turn have been charged back to NARDAC customers. The third UPS system was installed and paid for by DBOF funds in FY9l to support planned technological advances as well as consolidation efforts. The plan to reallocate this system to the OM,&N side of the house appears to be a misappropriation of funds. 3. This building was designed to be the Navy's prototype model for new NARDAC facilities and has functioned very successfully in this capacity. Any plan that impacts the DPI's ability to perform its mission is a disgrace and results in a waste of tax payers' money. . 4. The method of operation so far has been to get the ATCF constructed and packed full of equipment as soon as possible and at all costs; the presumption being that possession is nine tenths of the law. The Grace Murray Hopper Service Center has been targeted to become a data processing mega center and must preserve its facility resources or risk being replaced by an activity that is more cooperative with DOD needs. 5. I understand that without your assistance and support during the M1LCON effort, the Grace Murray Hopper Service Center would not exista For these reasons, I respectfully request that you intervene in our behalf. or ¡ . .' . -. . ~~7 , - ._~.'-" .. .. .'~'-- . - _'.___"__ ,,'" ,_...._.. ,_.. .'C· ~!~~~;1~~2~1~~:I~~~~~~c~~~~~~~ ~_7':"-,,-"";~_ ---,~ /) '""'""' too¿ ()ç¡L.. j;¿- '1- 9 ~ ~~i~~:,~;j~t~:~~·~~~~;?:\:/:·:~?f-.:3)~i.0;( :.~.~:::..:,~:.;-:~~_.:~~~~::-- .~~~- . -' .--: .:,~.

The Music Machine will be one of only two groups representing the United States and will be the sole representative for the entire Western United States. The Music Machine has established itself as being a performing group of the highest caliber. This group has received over 127 top awards and 92 first place honors in its 17-year history. They have performed on local and national television and have performed at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C., at the White House, and in Europe. They were the first American high school group to be invited and to perform in China. They have competed twice in festivals at Walt Disney World and placed second and fourth. These 40 students along with their director, Ron Bolles, have worked many long, hard hours to achieve this level of superiority. The students are committed with the support and assistance of parents, friends, and the community to raise the estimated $70,000 to carry their heritage of excellence to Amsterdam and Paris. However, these eager students are limited in how much they can earn through fund-raisers. Your assistance and financial support will enable them to reach their goal. Your contribution or donation can help a "dream come true" for a dedicated group of young people who have this extraordinary opportunity to represent their community and state in this prestigious festival and performance. The Music Machine is not looking for a handout, just a hand. Enclosed is specific information regarding ways you can assist these young people in reaching their goal. All donations are tax deductible. The students in Music Machine know all about initiative, perseverance, and hard work. They are successful because they work so hard. With your help, these kids wiff achieve this golden opportunity to show what is right about young Americans. Your response on or before February 15,1994 will be greatly appreciated.

Denying the appeal and thereby affmning the decision of the Planning Commission to approve the site plan and architecture for the construction of 51 single-family homes in Ncighborlmod 1561 f?f; "'""'" Dcl "'" PbmnoI Com=ûty. SUBMITTED BY: Director of PI~ng 'r r ~~ ~(fðv REVIEWED BY: City ManagerkJ{t. (4/Sths Vote: Yes_No.lO The applicant, Kaufman and Broad, is requesting site plan and architectural approval for the construction of 51 homes on the undeveloped portion of the Bayona neighborhood located within the Rancho Del Rey Planned Community (see locator). Site plan and architectural review for single family development, where required, is normally undertaken by the Zoning Administrator. In this case, the matter was referred directly to the Planning Commission because of the level of neighborhood concern. On January 26, 1994, the Planning Commission voted 4-3 to approve the proposal. Anticipating a possible appeal by the neighbors, however, and not wanting to delay the project any more than necessary, Kaufman and Broad have themselves appealed the matter to the City Council. The Environmental Review Coordinator has determined that the existing Environmental Impact Reports provide an adequate environmental analysis, and, therefore, the project is categorically exempt from further environmental review. RECOMMENDATION: That Council adopt the resolution denying the appeal and thereby approving the site plan and architecture for the 51 remaining lots in Bayona. BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: On January 26, 1994, the Planning Commission voted 4-3 to approve the project in accordance with Resolution No. DRC-94-lO, attached hereto. The three dissenting Commissioners (Martin, 10-1 . --. --...-- .. - -'-"'~'---'-"-'---"~"----'.", _._----~-- - - -~- Page 2, Item \0 Meeting Date 2/8/94 Moot, Ray) indicated that the remaining undeveloped lots along Norella Street (which extends from the existing Bayona homes, as opposed to the lots on Martos and Gredos which are separately accessed off Rancho del Rey Parkway) should be developed in a manner which more closely duplicates the existing dwellings. DISCUSSION: On August 3D, 1991, the 91-lot Bayona neighborhood received site plan and architectural approval by the Zoning Administrator. Subsequently, 40 homes were constructed by McMillin Communities. The 51 remaining lots are the subject matter of this application. Kaufman and Broad purchased the remaining lots and in September 1993, they presented a proposal to develop the remaining portion of Bayona with a new housing product. The new homes feature well articulated facades and accent architectural treatments, as well as a well- coordinated color and materials composition. However, these new homes are different from the existing Bayona homes in design and color composition. Based on these differences, the staff suggested that the developer meet with the existing Bayona residents to introduce the new design prior to a Zoning Administrator decision on the project. At the meeting, the residents raised two major issues: the architectural compatibility of the new homes with the existing neighborhood, and the quality and price of the new homes in relationship to their existing homes. Subsequent to the meeting, the residents appeared in front of the City Council to express their concern. They stated that the new homes needed to be architecturally compatible with their existing homes in order to maintain the character and value of their neighborhood. As a result, the Council directed staff to meet with the residents to acquaint them with the planning process, including any appeal procedures. Accordingly, a meeting was held with the Bayona residents on January 5, 1994. The staff, the applicant (Kaufman and Broad), and representatives of McMillin Communities met with the residents to determine if their concerns could be resolved to the satisfaction of all parties. Kaufman and Broad presented revised drawings illustrating a number of refmements that they believed would address the issues raised by the residents at the previous meeting and in earlier written correspondence (please see attached correspondence). The proposed building modifications included the deletion of decorative material, such as stone veneer and brick, and an increase in the number of homes with a barrel-type roof tile instead of the use of a flat tile. The residents welcomed the architectural changes, but indicated that the changes were insufficient to resolve the substantial differences in the finish materials, landscaping, and interior amenities between their homes and the new homes proposed by Kaufman and Broad. They I 0 ~ 2- --.-------- ..----.-......-- Page 3, Item 10 Meeting Date 2/8/94 indicated that the differences in architectural treatment and quality of the finish product would produce a distinctive change in neighborhood character and could result in a devaluation of their property values. The residents also indicated that before they could endorse the project, the stucco and roof color scheme would need to be changed to harmonize with the existing neighborhood color theme, and that individual home landscape design would need to be incorporated as part of the development proposal as was done in the case of their existing neighborhood. Based on these unresolved concerns, the Zoning Administrator forwarded the project to the Planning Commission for public hearing. D. ANALYSIS The new housing design features similar articulation and architectural treatment, but has certain features such as flat-tile rather than barrel tile roofs, front porches, slightly longer overhangs, lattice work, and other minor differences which are not a part of the existing Bayona homes. Another difference is the proposed color scheme. The existing residences use a pastel color stucco with contrasting accent color fascias and trim and the garage doors and accents are painted the same color. The proposed new product features compatible earth tones but the garage doors are painted white on all models. The Rancho Del Rey Design Guidelines suggest that architectural styles should not be mixed within a single project (neighborhood) and that each parcel maintain internal consistency. Although the proposed project is noticeably different, the architectural style is similar and, in our opinion, compatible with the existing neighborhood. In order to create a better transition between the two projects, however, it is recommended that flat roof tile material be replaced with barrel tile for the first four lots on each side of the street next to the existing homes, and that roof tile colors be carefully coordinated with the colors used on the balance of the existing homes. In addition, one vacant lot exists at the comer of Elsa Drive and Rancho Del Rey Parkway on which the applicant has agreed to duplicate the colors and materials of the existing homes on Elsa Drive. Additional conditions regarding varying setbacks, replacing a trellis feature used on one of the plans, and requiring decks to be standard rather than optional on all three plans have been recommended to further address compatibility. All of the conditions have been agreed to by the applicant with the exception of condition "bOO in the resolution which requires the replacement of the trellis feature with more compatible material. The applicant prefers to retain this trellis feature, which is used on one of the three plans. Ic-~ --.. ---...- '" Page 4, Item ID Meeting Date 2/8/94 Based on the project plans and the recommended conditions of approval, staff fmds the project to be appropriate for the site, and architecturally hannonious with the existing Bayona homes and, therefore, in compliance with the site plan and architectural principles established in section 19.14.470 of the Chula Vista Municipal Code (attached) as well as the Rancho del Rey PC District Regulations and Residential Design Guidelines. For these reasons, staff recommends approval of the project based on the findings and subject to the conditions listed in the attached City Council Resolution. As noted above, the three Planning Commissioners who voted "no" on the project believed that the lots on Norella Street-- the ones most directly associated with the existing homes--should more closely duplicate the design of the existing dwellings. However, the staff and a majority of the Commission believe the project as conditioned is compatible with the existing homes. FISCAL IMPACT: Not applicable.

PUBLIC HEARING: SITE PLAN AND ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW: DRC-94-10 CONSTRUCTION OF 51 SINGLE-FAMILY DWELLINGS ON THE UNDEVELOPED PORTION OF THE BA YONA NEIGHBORHOOD WITHIN RANCHO DEL REY - Kaufman and Broad Principal Planner Griffm and Associate Planner Hernandez presented the staff report, and noted that staff recommended approval of the project, subject to conditions. Commissioner Ray asked if the elevation on Martos and Gredos was the same as on Norella. Staff requested that the applicant respond. Gregg Linhoff, 12626 High Bluff Drive, San Diego, representing Kaufman and Broad, answered that the two cul-de-sac streets were higher in elevation than Norella Street and Esla Drive. Commissioner Ray asked why four lots in the existing neighborhood would be a segway into the Bayona housing group. Would the shading of the houses be varied; what was the reference to the segway going into the existing neighborhood. Mr. Hernandez replied that the condition referred to the use of the flat tile versus the barrel-type. The residents had raised the issue of the different types of roofs. Commissioner Ray was concerned about the transition into the Bayona neighborhood, and that the transition point would be moved by four lots. Associate Planner Hernandez replied that the condition was an attempt to soften the transition, but it would be noticeable. Principal Planner Griffm said the transition effort was for the existing residents; if future residents had a concern about the transition farther down the street, they could choose not to bUY the home. Commissioner Salas asked if the builder was agreeable and able to use the barrel-type roofs on the lots specified, why couldn't he use it throughout the whole project. The question was deferred to the public hearing portion to be answered by the applicant. This being the time and the place as advertised, the public hearing was opened. Gregg Linhoff, representing Kaufman and Broad. 12626 High Bluff Drive, San Diego, the developer, noted the application was originally submitted to the City for an dmini~trative site plan and architectural approval. Because of concerns of the Bayona residents, there had been three meetings with them and several changes had been made. The residents believed there would be a decrease in value of their homes; difference in colors to be used in the stucco trim; the darkest roof tile would be incompatible with the existing roof tiles on the Bayona homes; concern that over time children might break the trellis work on plan 1; and front yard /O~/O -- / - . _.__._-------~- -._~_._,.._--_.._.__._.._._._----,--~_.._------_.._---- · PC Minutes -3- January 26, 1994 landscaping. He proceeded with an explanation of the compatibility of the projects. Regarding the mixing of flat and barrel-type tiles, he pointed out that it was desired by the developers to mix the types of roof tile within their neighborhoods. Mr. Linhoff said it helped maintain interest; a certain amount of variety was encouraged, desirable, and benefited a community. A flat-tiled roof house, however, would not be adjacent to the Bayona homes. Mr. Linhoff asked for approval of the project, with the following modifications to the conditions listed in the resolution: Item 'a'. The developer interpreted the word "similar" to mean that the proposed tiles were in fact similar and the condition would not dictate a change from what they were proposing. Item 'b'. The trellis was solid backed by a plywood sheeting and probably stronger than the typical stucco exterior. They felt the trellis work was consistent and compatible within their own houses which were highly consistent and compatible with the Bayona homes. They asked that this condition be deleted. Item 'd'. The fencing program had already been submitted and approved by the master developer and the perimeter fencing was 100% complete. They would not have any involvement in the fencing. Commissioner Tuchscher, referring to Item 'a', stated that the applicant was looking for was a change in verbiage to say "in colors as proposed." Mr. Linhoff concurred. At Chair Martin's request, Mr. Linhoff showed each proposed tile in comparison with the existing tiles in the light, so the differences could be seen. Commissioner Salas concluded that there were three elevations in each floor plan; two had barrel roofs and one had a flat roof. Mr. Linhoff concurred. Commissioner Tarantino, regarding garage door colors, asked if there was a variation in colors. Mr. Linhoff stated there was a variation in color; they were not all white. In answer to Commissioner Moot, Mr. Linhoff stated the porch columns used in the plans were square and were made of wood. Commissioner Moot asked what plans would go into the transition area. Mr. Linhoff said it had been plotted, but he did not have them with him. Commissioner Moot asked if the plans with the trellis and stepped-up porches were proposed in the transition area. Mr. Linhoff believed there was one within the eight lots adjacent to the Bayona homes, but not immediately adjacent to the existing homes. Commissioner Fuller asked Mr. Linhoff to comment on the type of landscaping design to be used. Mr. Linhoff said landscaping design was not part of this process, but they were contemplating including front-yard landscaping as a standard feature. It had not yet been designed. Whether or not they did this was a marketing decision. - :} - PC Minutes -4- January 26, 1994 Commissioner Salas asked if the lots were wider than the existing homes. Mr. Linhoff said the lots within the tract varied from lot to lot. They were building on each lot as it exists without the use of retaining walls, which Mr. Linhoff said were sometimes used to eliminate a sideyard slope and allow a wider pad. Commissioner Ray was concerned about the type of texture on the stucco. He asked what would be different about the seven homes which would be in the transition area. Mr. Linhoff said the fInish would be the same type of fInish that exists on the Bayona homes. The transition elements principally relate to the use of barrel roof tile for all seven of the lots, plus the house at the end of Esla Drive. Commissioner Ray concluded the barrel-type roof would be used on 66% of the homes. Mr. Linhoff concurred. Commissioner Tarantino stated the correspondence which had been received from the residents included some concerns over which the Planning Commission had no control in terms of inferior amenities, etc. He asked those who spoke to address their concerns only to the architectural compatibility. Chair Martin called Mr. McKey to the podium and asked that he speak only to the design. Mr. Taras McKey, 111 Elm Street, Suite 350, San Diego, attorney for the Bayona homeowners, and some of his family who lives in the subdivision, said there was a clearly dernarked area which had always been identifIed as Bayona Subdivision. When they bought their homes, they also bought into a neighborhood as it was presented to them. The CC&Rs governing Bayona outlined rules that required all current homeowners to go through a long series of red tape before they could make any kind of construction or improvements on any of their homes. The CC&Rs would be an appropriate standard to use when considering whether the new proposed plan was comparable and in continuity with the existing homes. Mr. McKey showed overheads regarding floor area ratios and compared the square footage and prices of the Bayona homes to the proposed homes. For the record, Mr. McKey said that with the reduction in price and the substantial drop in size in the neighborhood, the current Bayona homeowners were facing what they considered to be a drastic impact on the value of their homes. If that happened as a result of this body's decision to approve this plan, this body's decision would reduce the value of private property in the City and could be looked at as a government taking of private property. Mr. McKey said that, while the City has power to do that, there needs to be a public benefIt for such a taking and, when there is, just compensation be awarded to property owners who lose their property. Mr. McKey appealed to the Commission to help them in protecting their interest as the current Bayona homeowners to preserve the homes they bought, the neighborhood they bought, and the peace of mind they thought they bought when they moved into Bayona. I 0- I / /i - 'Î./ --~---- ^ -~-_._-,----_...,._,,_._..,---~--~- PC Minutes -5- January 26, 1994 Commissioner Tuchscher asked Mr. McKey to show the overhead having to do with floor area ratio. Mr. McKey said the text was from the CC&Rs that bind the homes in Bayona; actually from additional covenants and restrictions that were established in 1992. The original CC&Rs were recorded in 1989. Commissioner Tuchscher asked that the text be read into the record: "City ordinances and regulations and their interpretation are subject to change, and measurement and determination of floor area is a technical process. Therefore, owners should consult with the City of Chula Vista Planning Department for an official determination prior to committing to or starting any addition to their homes. " In answer to Chair Martin, Assistant City Attorney Rudolf said if property in a subdivision which was affected by CC&Rs was sold to someone else, the subsequent taker would be bound by the covenants which ran with the property. Commissioner Ray asked if Kaufman and Broad was bound by the same CC&Rs since they purchased the property from McMillin who had initiated and developed that area as a community . Assistant City Attorney Rudolf believed, as a subsequent taker, they would be subject to the same CC&Rs. Commissioner Moot said he had driven through the property. The two cul-de-sacs numbered 1 and 2 appeared, because of the height differential, the access street, and the layout, to be distinct from Norella Street and Isla Street which was one street. He asked Mr. McKey if they had a problem with the different architectural styles if they were up in Martos Place and Grados Place which appeared to be not on the continuous street. Mr. McKey said that would be better than the proposal, but it was a completely enclosed area and a distinct neighborhood. Commissioner Moot commented that it would be very strange to have one distinct architectural style and half-way down the street a different architectural style. The cul-de-sac did not appear to present that type of problem. Jerry Park, 954 Norella St., CV 91910, a resident of Bayona, stated that the shape of the homes did not match up; the new homes were wider in front, shorter in back; the chimneys were prominent, more exposed; Norella Street was a continuous street and it could not be camouflaged by putting similar types of roofs on the homes. Marvin Simkin, 950 Norella St., CV 91910, resident of Bayona, said his home was next door to where the transition was being proposed. He suggested that if the same colors as Bayona could be used on Lot I, perhaps the same colors could be used on the rest of the houses. He noted that colors show up differently in different lights; and that the black stripe on the roof tiles proposed would, from a distance, tend to blend in with the rest of the color and would have a darker effect. - )..1 - PC Minutes -6- January 26, 1994 John Higgins, 968 Norella St., CV 91910, was concerned about the difference in the two developments, the landscaping; there was no guarantee that the landscaping would be put in; the fences around the development segregated the development from other developments; there was no proposed fencing as in the Bayona neighborhood; they were proposing smaller, cheaper homes in a neighborhood that already exists. Homayoun Nabizadeh, 949 Norella St., CV 91910, said that Mr. Linhoffhad stated the homes would be compatible. Mr. Nabizadeh felt the California Castillo (Kaufman and Broad homes) were compatible, but were starter homes. Ms. Carolyn Little, 725 Esla Drive, CV 91910, restated that the CC&Rs dictated every change the current residents could make in their homes. She felt everything was different in the newly proposed homes. She did not understand how they could make so many changes, and the residents could not. Chair Martin asked the applicants if they would like to respond, specifically to the CC&Rs. Steve Guy, speaking on behalf of McMillin Companies, 2727 Hoover, National City, stated that additional CC&Rs were recorded against each phase as constructed--not against the unfinished phases. Therefore, the lots that Kaufman and Broad have purchased are not within the CC&Rs and are not bound by the same CC&Rs. Assistant City Attorney Rudolf concurred; the previous question regarding CC&Rs was, if a house was already covered by CC&Rs and was sold, would it be bound by the CC&Rs. In that case, the property would be bound by the CC&Rs. In answer to Chair Martin, Mr. Guy stated that the property that was sold when the homes were built had additional CC&Rs placed against that property. They were never placed against the Kaufman and Broad property, and therefore never bound by those CC&Rs. Mr. Rudolf asked if the Kaufman and Broad property was covered by the 1989 CC&Rs. Mr. Guy believed those CC&Rs covered all the property. The additional CC&Rs were the ones which had been referred to earlier. Commissioner Ray asked when the Kaufman and Broad property is completely developed, would the Bayona property owners still be bound by the same CC&Rs and would Kaufman and Broad now retain the whole community which would be bound under another set of CC&Rs. Mr. Linhoff said there was a master set of CC&Rs (Declaration of Restrictions) which encompassed the majority of the Rancho del Rey community and provided general guidelines, and provided for annexation of specific neighborhoods or groups oflots into the master CC&Rs. This was accomplished by a subsequent recordation of supplemental CC&Rs and declaration of annexation. As an individual group of homes was brought on line, the supplemental CC&Rs and declaration of annexation was then recorded which specifically annexed those particular lots 10-/1- - ( - , _._-_.-_.-----~--_.._-_._._~-~---,-,------_._~--_.- PC Minutes -7- January 26, 1994 into and under the jurisdiction of the master CC&Rs, and also provided additional restrictions more specific to that neighborhood. The lots on wWch Kaufman and Broad were proposing to build would be subject to a declaration of annexation yet to be recorded. Commissioner Ray concluded that the homes that Kaufman and Broad were proposing to build would fall under the CC&Rs that exist today for the residents of Bayona. Mr. Linhoff clarified that they would be under the "master guidelines." The supplemental CC&Rs would annex them into the master and would provide for additional restrictions specific to that group of lots. Commissioner Ray asked if McMillin had retained the property, developed the lots and sold them, they would have been considered part and parcel and under the umbrella of the existing CC&Rs of Bayona. Mr. Linhoff said they would be subject to the master CC&Rs only. The supplemental CC&Rs are recorded at the time the lots have been sold off by the master developer to a merchant builder, or if the master developer was also the builder, they were typically recorded at the time the pennits were pulled. Commissioner Ray noted that there could be multiple homeowners associations with the same number of CC&Rs that fall within that master plan. Mr. Linhoff stated there could be a number of declarations of restrictions within a community. Commissioner Ray asked the Assistant City Attorney if the City had any input as to approval or denial of those specific CC&Rs as they are annexed within the master. Mr. Rudolf said it was a typical subdivision requirement, but not required by the City. The City would generally not have any influence over it. The City, however, was party to some CC&Rs in some subdivisions. In answer to Chair Martin, Mr. Linhoff stated Mr. McKey's reference to floor area ratios was provided in the CC&Rs as a general statement wWch reflected existing City ordinances and did not set a minimum standard. Commissioner Tuchscher clarified that no matter who built on those lots, they would have the option to record whatever CC&Rs they felt were appropriate for that particular neighborhood. The issue of CC&Rs was not an issue for the Planning Commission. Chair Martin was concerned that under the CC&Rs, a new builder could not come in and make the new development the same as the existing. Mr. Linhoff stated that all the property within Rancho del Rey, for any improvements of any type, were subject to review by an arcWtectural review committee. This was a committee composed of members appointed by the master developer. Any changes were subject to approval by the arcWtectural review committee. That was the same committee that would review a proposed room addition, repainting, fence change, landscape, etc. that might be done by an existing owner. ¿ - PC Minutes -8- January 26, 1994 Commissioner Moot asked if the Municipal Code Section provided with the staff report was to be used as a guideline regarding hannony and proportion. Mr. Rudolf affIrmed and reviewed the proposed fmdings submitted for Commission approval. Mr. Linhoff pointed out that Kaufman and Broad had three floor plans; the existing Bayona homes consisted of four. Kaufman and Broad did not have a house they considered comparable in size to Bayona's 2100 sq. ft. home. When comparing the other three plans to Bayona's, the average size difference was less than 100 sq. ft. He asked for Planning Commission approval based on the changes they had asked for in the resolution. Commissioner Tarantino noted that in his neighborhood, there was a transition into another neighborhood with different architecture. The transition had worked very well, and it was not necessarily something that would be detrimental to the neighborhood. Commissioner Fuller commented that the proposed development was in substantial compliance with the site development regulations. She stated that the homeowners were looking at it from a different bias. Speaking to the homeowners, Commissioner Fuller said that a neighborhood was not a collection of houses; it was a feeling of people. She challenged them to not listen to Mr. McKey's statement that it would be a threat to them as people because the homes would be considered different. The threat was not the difference in architectural style, but the alienating of people against people because there were some differences there perceived in the shades of color on the fronts of the houses or the tiles of the roofs. Answering Commissioner Ray, Principal Planner Griffm said the matter had not gone to the Design Review Committee because it required a site plan and architectural approval, which was a Zoning Administrator process. By Code, the appeal body on Zoning Administrator site plan and architectural review is the Planning Commission, not the Design Review Committee. The Code provides no option to send it to the Design Review Committee. The Assistant City Attorney informed the Commission that, at the City Council meeting the night before, the Council had adopted an urgency ordinance, giving the possibility of an appeal from a site plan and architectural review decision by the Planning Commission appealable to the City Council. Commissioner Moot asked to what extent this situation had come up before regarding transition in styles in mid-street. He was concerned about Novella Street and the transition in mid-street; he thought the cul-de-sacs could be designed however they wished and it would not impact the neighborhood adversely. He did not have a comfort level of such a transition having been done before and if it worked. Mr. Griffm knew of a transition in EastLake which had been accepted by the existing neighbors, but it was a somewhat different type of transition. 10-/3 ,/ ----"~.._..__._-_._-_.- -. ..._.._------_.._-----_._-_....~-- PC Minutes -9- January 26, 1994 Commissioner Tuchscher understood that the existing residents would like to have the same models built out on the street and have that continuity; however, no matter who built out the lots in today's market, it would be a different housing product to cater to a different housing market. He believed a product as different as possible would retain more value for the neighbors, because in an appraisal process would be their specific neighborhood rather than an identical house down the street in the new construction that sold at a much lower price. He felt different styles, different sizes, different colors would be better from a value standpoint. Commissioner Ray asked Mr. Linhoff if any thought was given by Kaufman and Broad to use McMillin's existing plans to build out at least Novella Street. Mr. Linhoff stated that an architectural design is protected under copyright laws; they were not the owners of that copyright and did not have the privilege to build out those identical homes unless they purchased or otherwise obtained that. Kaufman and Broad had in-house design, and felt their product was the most appropriate for the market. Commissioner Ray asked if there was an option to separate Norella Street from the other two neighborhoods. Mr. Rudolf said the Commission was free to structure their approval, but it had to be tied to the fmding that it was compatible. MS (Moot/Ray for discussion) to approve the resolution as is for the cul-de-sac areas I and 2; and for the rest of Norella Street pending some visual depiction of streets where transitions had been made in mid-street and he had some comfort level that it worked; he would like for the applicant to come back and convince the Commission it would work on Norella Street. Commissioner Salas thought the builder had presented enough evidence and material that they could see that the product would blend in. She did not believe there would be a drastic change. Commissioner Tuchscher did not wish to delay the project to bring back slides of other projects. It was evident to him that someone on the Council wanted to hear it; he would like to see the project voted up or down as is, rather than send a convoluted Planning Commission recommendation. Commissioner Moot, as the maker of the motion, withdrew his motion pending a motion on the entire project, if the second agreed. Commissioner Ray thought this was two, maybe three, distinctly separate neighborhoods. He felt the cul-de-sacs should be treated as a separate issue. In listening to Commissioner Tuchscher's comments about the diversity of product and protecting the prices for the residents of Esla Drive and the portion of Norella which had been built, he agreed that they would be better off with a different product so that they were not comparables taken at lower values. He also agreed with Commissioner Moot. (, PC Minutes -10- January 26, 1994 Commissioner Ray asked, before withdrawing his second, if the purpose for voting the item up or down strictly to get it moving forward, or did the Planning Commission want to make a recommendation as to what they really believed should happen? Commissioner Salas said she was going to vote the way she felt and the way she believed was right, no matter what was pending with City Council. Commissioner Ray asked Commissioner Moot if the original motion was not approved, if he would be willing to separate the neighborhoods and approve parts of this. Mr. Moot concurred. Commissioner Ray then withdrew his second. MSC (Tuchscher/Fuller) 4-3 (Martin, Moot, Ray against) to adopt Planning Commission Resolution DRC-94-1O approving the site plan and architecture for DRC-94-1O based on the fmdings and subject to the conditions contained therein, with a revision to condition 'a' to read "Lots 24-26 and 46-49 shall be developed with models using the barrel-type roof in the colors proposed which are similar to the ones used in the existing Bayona homes." Commissioner Ray asked to go on record stating that if the Planning Commission had separated the completion of Norella Street, he would have voted for the project. As a result of everything being combined, he could not. Principal Planner Griffm noted that the item was appealable to the City Council within 10 days of the Planning Commission's decision. Chair Martin thanked the residents for attending the meeting and for their input. At 9:20 p.m. Chair Martin declared a 10-minute break. At 9:30, the meeting reconvened. 10-)4 - 'I < -- - ..~~-".- . ._....._---,._--_.__.,._~~-_.- THIS PAGE WAS INI'ENrIONALLY LEFT BLANK -v- RESOLUTION NO. DRC-94-10 RESOLUTION OF THE Cl1Y OF CHULA VISTA PLANNING COMMISSION APPROVING THE SITE PLAN AND ARCHITECTURE FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF 51 SINGLE-FAMILY HOMES AT NEIGHBORHOOD 1561 (BAYONA) WITHIN THE RANCHO DEL REY PLANNED COMMUNITY. WHEREAS, a duly verified application for Zoning Administrator site plan and architectural approval was filed with the Planning Department of the City of Chula Vista on September 24, 1994 by Kaufman and Broad, and WHEREAS, said application requested site plan and architectural approval for the construction of 51 single family homes on the undeveloped portion of neighborhood 1561 (Bayona) of the Rancho Del Rey planned community, and WHEREAS, the Zoning Administrator considered the site plan and architecture for the proposed development, but due to the concerns expressed by the residents of the area, and pursuant to Chula Vista Municipal Code Section 19.14.050, referred this item to the Planning Commission, and WHEREAS, the Planning Department set the time and place for a hearing on said site plan and architectural review application and notice of said hearing, together with its purpose, was given by its publication in a newspaper of general circulation in the city and its mailing to property owners within 500 feet of the exterior boundaries of the property and the 40 developed lots within the Bayona neigborhood at least ten days prior to the hearing, and WHEREAS, the hearing was held at the time and place as advertised, namely 7:00 p.m., January 26, 1994, in the Council Chambers, 276 Fourth Avenue, before the Planning Commission and said hearing was thereafter closed, and WHEREAS, the Environmental Review Coordinator has determined that the existing Environmental Impact Reports provide an adequate environmental analysis for the consideration of this project.

I chose The Rancho Del Rey, Bayona neighbOrhood because I knew the quality of McMillin homes and the fact that Bayona was designed by a well known arçhltectural firm and not by in house designer as many developers do. I was told that the neighbOrhOod consisted of 91 lots and 4 different models all illustrated in the plat plan approved by the City of Chula Vista on October 18,1990. see enclosec:J document. My decision to purchase my home In Bayona, was based on the strong I'8Sldentlal flavor, the neighborhood Integrity. the quality of materials, the character and pleasant harmony of colors and the well design landscape, which toqèther produce an elegant and pleasant atmosphere that my family and I e~Yed. I am very positive that this development II unique and well thought out. T excellent architectural design aI80 contributes to the enhancement of the City. To mrc surprise, on December 8, 1993, only 4 months after I. moved to thll cleve opment, I reoeived an Invitation to plVvlew a new housing product for the remaining portion of the neighborhood and to meet the new developer Kaufman & Broad. . This proposed homes projected not only a different architecture. but Incompatible color scheme, the Interior and exterior finishes, the amenities and architectural design quanti's are inferior to the quality found In our home. . At this time we see our neighbOrhood threatened to be substantially changed by the Introduction of thle new development. JO~¿q .

As homeowners our main concem Is not who is going to finish the development of the remaining lots, but that the development adhere to the already established ne~hbOrhOOd character and Integrity, Therefore, we urge you to deny the project an direct the developer to revise his plans to reflect the established architectural character, color scheme and landscaping of the Bayona neighborhood, which we call home.

The master plan called for the eventual completion of Bayona by the McMiUan Development. Inc. as a architecturally hannonious tract of homes that suggested Mediterranean innuences, The newly pro~ homes to be built by Kaufman " Broad in no way retain this architectural ony: They are of an entirely different conceptual origin. differing in colorations, geometry, materials, etc. ..- .- The proposed homes. if they are completed as proposed would have severely negati~e affects on the Jlesthetics as weU as the uniQueness of the Bayona community. -we are taking this opportunity to fonnally ask that 8 public hearine be eranted to us. the homeowne We the homeowners of Bayona have also signed the 8 ac cd petition fonn to demonstrate OUf conviction that this is indeed a matter of great importance to us.

This will be especially apparent on Nore11a Street where the two dissimilar projects will coexist on the same street. Also, a single oddball house has been proposed for the north end of Es1a street. This house will literally stand out like a sore thumb if built as proposed. As a Bayona homeowner, I welcome the completion of the Bayona project. However, the proposal should be denied until the following problems can be addressed: · The proposed "stone and brick masonry trim" and "elevated covered front porches" are totally out of character for the neighborhood. All of Rancho Del Ray is done in a spanish motif. · The proposed flat concrete roof tiles should be replaced with curved tiles in the same color, size, and shape as all the other homes in the Bayona project. · The new houses should be painted in color schemes agreeable with the existing homes on the same street. · The new construction should have landscaping that fits in with the landscaping of the rest of the street. Those of us who bought into the Bayona development agreed to extensive and detailed CC&Rs because we enjoyed the harmonious look of a master planned community. We are concerned that this project may severely reduce the property value of our investments. Please study the project's compatibility with and impact upon existing homes before approving it.

Before you con.ider this plant please hear out our concerns as one of the Sayona Homeowners. Last wednesday, December 8, we (the Bayona Homeowners) were invited to preview the proposed plan in the Sayona neighborhood by Kaufman and Broad and the McMillin qroup at Rancho Del Rey. To our amazement, the plans and arohiteotural designs of the proposed dwellings are completely differently, they don't have the .ame style, quality and features as the hou.e. that are already built. The proposed dwellings are muoh smaller than the previously approved plans in the Bayona neighborhood. Kaufman and Broad will start buildin9 these completely different hou.es from where the 8ayona development had stopped which is half of Norella Street (see exhibit 1). As you can seefro~ exhibit 2 (de.19n. of pre.ent home. in the Bayona neighborhood), the plans of Kaufman and Broad doe. not blend with our present nei9hborhood. A. a military family who's been stationed overseas for over 8 year., we were excited to finally settle down in a quite community like ~ancho Del ~ey. When we bought our house which was in November 1992, we were nev.r told by Rancho Del Rey'. .ale. repre.entative, Jerrie Brizzie, that there ~i9ht be problems with the Bayona development. What we were told and led to believe was that most of the houses were already Bold (all the lota 1n Norella St.) except for 3 or 4 hou.... When we finally arrived from overse.a and saw our hou.e for the fir.t time, we were surprised that only half of Nor.lla Street was developed. . That was when we found out that Rancho Del Ray was havin; financial problema due to their partner, HomeYed. We under.tood the situation and we didn't mind that McMillin stopped the development in our nei9hborhood for the mean time. We were never informed that the McMillin qroup miqht not continue with the approved Bayona plans. _ ~:v - - " DEC 16 '93 07:27AM ROIcr SOUTH BAY ~ P.2 \.. Now that McMillin has bought HomFed's share, they are brinqin; in Kaufman and Broad to continue the project in our neighborhood with completely different plans from what we were presented initiall1 when we were ~u~ing our houses. NOW that development is start ng again, our ma~n concern is the difference in .tyle, quality and features of the proposed dwellings from the present spanish style houses in our neiïhborhood. ~h. proposed development will It art in the m d~l. of Norelll St. The propo..d - hou.es al.o have a price rang. of below $200,000. As you can .e. with exhibit 3 (price range Of pre.ent home. 1n the sayona nei;hborhood) the avera;e value of houses i. about $230,000 beoause of the unique style and quality of our homes. picture a street (Norelll st) in which half is Slyona quality and half of 1t 1_ completely different. What do you think will happen if your house is valued at $230,000 and then another house down the road ie only valued at $180,0001 If the proposed plan of Kaufman and Broad is approved, the value of all the houses in the layona neighborhood will go down. We are hoping that McMillin will reconsider and will go ahead with the previously approved plan in the layona nei;hborhood. Pleaset we ur;e you to consider our concerns and the rest of the layona neighborhood. We voiced out our concern. to the McMillin representative, the Senior Vice-President in charge of Marketing, and to the Kaufman and Broad representative during our me.ting last December B. We were all told that the McMillin group will get back with us in regards to our concerns, but up to now we haven't heard anything from them. We are all up.et and cisqruntled about the change in plans. We were misinformed and misled by the Sales Department of Rancho Del Rey and they are playing around with our biggest asset - our homes I So you are our last resort, plea.e hear our concerns and help UI. Before you approve thesEroposed plan of Kaufman and Broad, have an open forum with the yona homeowners or just visit the site and you'll .ee in person what the proposed change in the plan will do to our nei;hborhood.

At this time wé would like to expressed three reasons why this proposed 51 single family dwellings should not be approved by the City.. 1. We strongly believed that the existing design Is unique and contribute to the enhancement of the City.. Our houses features excellent architectural design qualities. We strongly suggest that the amenities our houses have be consider before approving this new development proposal. Our houses as we understand were design by an architectural firm who took the time to analyzed, researched and studied the City's residential neighborhoOds. 2. As homeowners our main concem lies on the Inferior quality of design and Inferior quality on the product, means cheaper houses, which translate to a depreciation of our properties value. 3. As you are aware, on October 18,1990, your department approved the Sayona development, and for reasons unknown to us this proposed and approved development has not been completed. We want you to exercise your design review power to maintain the quality of our neighborhood. - 4' - " <..

Aside from onr concerns regarding the value of our home inve.tment, we request that you consider these i..uea: the propoeeò houses have brick and stone maaonry, raised enclosed front porche., flat til~ roofs (vs. barrel tile.) and other features which do not blend with the spanish style, Sayona homea: the color scheme& and landscaping will not match our existing homes: and the fact that we, the homeowners of Sayona/ invested our hard-earned money believing the neighborhood would develop with the aame high quality Sayona homes. At the time we were considering buying our hornet we were shown future blueprint. and a video of the Sayona home plana which left me with the impression of a neighborhood one could be proud to be a part of becau.e of the dedication to enhancing the quality of homes. The current pro- posed home. in our opinion, do not have the features which match our B.yona home. I thank you for your consideration regarding this matter.

I am a home owner at 949 Norella street in the Bayona community. When my wife and I purchased the home in June of this year, we were assured by a representative of the McMillan Company that they were going to continue to build more McMillan houses (Bayona Phase II) on the empty lots of our street. However, on December 7, 1993, McMillan informed us that the lots were sold to a different company, Kaufman and Broad. Kaufman and Broad are intending to build a different style of homes in our community. which will be called "California Castille," a .completely different title from "Bayona." Furthermore, the proposed "California Castille" is going to split our community in half, on the same street I This seems so awkward and incredible to us. The new proposed homes will also be about 30 to 60 thousand dollars less expensive than the homes in the Bayona community. Our homes are of a contemporary Mediterranean style where the proposed homes tend to look more traditional with dark brick and stone masonary, raised enclosed front porches, flat tile roofs, and they are smaller in square footage. The difference would be very obvious I The city of Chula Vista must stop the new proposal and offer a similar type of construction to the existing houses. We, the people of Bayona, are angry and frustrated over this matter. We - - are going to lose on the value of our homes.

Changes include removal of brick/stone trim, roof tile revisions, color palette revisions and plotting changes. * Although California Castillo homes posses many similarities to existing Bayona homes, they do not replicate but rather complement existing Bayona homes by providing a compatible but not-identical product. The applicant, City staff, Rancho Del Rey Architectural Review Committee, designers of the Bayona product, and designers of the Castillo product all agree that the two products are compatible. * Mid-block housing transitions already exist throughout a number of master-planned communities in Chula Vista, and will occur again by design, as previously approved by the City, in several areas within Rancho Del Rey. * The scope of the Site Plan and Architectural Approval process is primarily limited to exterior architectural considerations, building siting and compliance with development standards such as setbacks and floor area ratios. Considerations of value and pricing are not pertinent to the application and are not criteria for approval. * Despite Bayona residents' expressed concern that construction of Castillo homes on adjacent lots may negatively impact the value of existing Bayona homes due to product differences, historical experience, supported by expert opinion, suggests that in fact development of identical or nearly identical homes on adjacent lots will more directly affect the values of existing homes than will a differing product. Development of homes that are different yet compatible will have a beneficial impact on the value of both existing and proposed housing.

FROM: Bob Leiter, Director of Planning ~( SUBJECT: Resource Conservation Commission Recommendations for Improving the Environment The Resource Conservation Commission has prepared a report which is on the February 8, 1994, Council agenda. The RCC is provided with staff support by the Planning Department, and Doug Reid, Environmental Review Coordinator, provided general assistance to the RCC in their preparation of this report. In reviewing the report with representatives of the City Manager's office and other department heads, it appears that there are several issues that warrant further discussion with the RCC, both to provide them with additional information regarding current policies and practices, and to obtain clarification from the Commission regarding their specific concerns. Therefore, we are supportive of the recommendation of the RCC Chairman, to have these matters referred to appropriate staff for further analysis and recommendations, and we would plan to work directly with the RCC to clarify their issues and concerns. RECOMMENDATION: Staff supports the recommendation of the Resource Conservation Commission (RCC).

In the meantime, there is a growing amount of composting/ed material available outside the otay Landfill for public use. The material is available at no cost. Users must provide their own containers and transportation. Recommended Action. Monthly, the city deliver full containers of this composted material to two or more locations within the city limits. Material containers would be dropped off mid-day on Friday and retrieved the following Monday. Compost would be available at the locations for individual residential purposes. Perhaps senior citizens could provide hand-out materials and be available to answer non-technical questions on use of compost. By bringing the compost back to the user's home territory, residents might be more receptive to use of the compost and acceptance of the yard waste program. possible site locations might be allied businesses such as Home Depot or Nurseryland. This action should be evaluated following not less than two months of availability. I/-/P --_._~"-_._-~._._..__._-_..,-_._------ ---+---.._.~-~- 3 To: City council Subject: Purchasing Backaround. Earlier this year, a Public Notice appeared in the Chula vista Star-News publishing the revised purchasing policy for the city. There was no definitive statement on procurement of recycled materials in that policy. The former Conservation Coordinator, Athena Bradley, informed members of this commission that there was an unwritten policy and it "was too late" to change the published policy statement. Recommended Action. The city take a firm, public position on procurement of recycled materials for use in administration and operations. We suggest that the statement be strongly worded in manner similar to: "will afford precedence to procurement of products containing post-consumer recycled materials. Exceptions to this rule would apply only when the recycled material content is prohibited by state or Federal regulations or does not meet specific specifications of the user. When the price of the product containing recycled materials is within 10 percent of the price of the lowest qualified bidder or list price, preference will be given to the product containing post-consumer recycled materials." //-7 - -- -- ....-....-..-..--.-,--.-- .-.~-"~_.__._--------_..._,_. ---_._----_.~-----_. 4 To: city Council sUbject: Recycling Coordinator Backqround. The City of Chula vista established a position as Recycling Coordinator who coordinated efforts on recycling amongst residents, schools and businesses. The position is vacant. Recommendation. Either fill the vacancy or let the residents know how the void will be filled. (Remarks: This item was submitted by RCC. The position has since been filled.)

Frequently, the RCC and Planning Commission are asked to review projects that require conditional use permits involving environmental concerns with little or no review mechanism in place. Recommended Action. Annually, City staff provide the Planning commission and RCC with a status report of scheduled review of conditional use permits. (Remark: A Conditional Use Committee has been established. This item could be incorporated in its recommendations.) ))--1 .-----.....-... -- ---- -- ...._----_...__._..,._,~_.._._-,-_._,_._--,,--_._~._..- 6 To: City Council Subject: Brush Management Policy Backqround. Fires in Southern California tend to promote brush clearance by homeowners. Many Homeowners make the mistake of planting vegetation such as Eucalyptus trees which have volatile oils or planting other non-native vegetation and watering heavily (which has a tendency to induce slide on steep slopes) . Clearance of hillside Coastal Sage Scrub has also been recommended in fire management policies in the past. Plants such as Eucalvptus, Arundo donax, and Pampas Grass readily carry fire and appear to be spreading in open space area in the City. Recommended Action. Review the current brush management policy to reduce fire hazards and communicate this information to citizens through local media. J)- / (} -.- ---- ..._-~--_._._._.,_.__..~._-_._---_._--~-_._-_.-.__.- ----.---.-'''- 7 To: city Council Subject: Landscape Policy Backqround. Many non-native plant species are used in landscaping. Some of the species used in landscaping readily escape cultivation and become problems in natural habitats. The Office of Technological Assessment for the Federal Government released a report this year discussing negative effects of some escaped or released exotics. In the county, various open space parks are combating a few plant species in an attempt to maintain native landscapes. Invasive exotic plants are becoming more prevalent in open space. In the wetlands outside of the Chula vista Nature Interpretive Center are three species easily capable of changing the habitat that currently exists. Recommended Action. (1) Review current landscape policies to ensure that certain invasive species are not recommended for use or are specifically discouraged for use adjacent or upstream from open space areas. (2) Periodically promulgate additional information relating to drought tolerant planting. (3) Review water management policy. (4) Develop a long-range plan to remove invasive exotic plants from all city owned open space lands. //-// ".._.-..-..._~--. --..- -,~--_.,_._---_._..._._-_.._------- 8 To: city Council Subject: Parks and Open Space West of 1-805 Backaround. Some older areas within the Chula Vista jurisdiction are becoming run-down and buildings dilapidated. Recommended Actions. 1. The city and School Boards should be encouraged to work together to provide jointly used recreation facilities where possible. This would be especially desirable in the area west of 1-805 where playground space is at a premium as it would reduce costs to both entities. 2. When housing infill is done in the western part of Chula Vista, funds collected toward parks should be used to help purchase open space west of 1-805. 3. City Council, encourage improvement and provide incentives to upgrade existing housing in older neighborhoods. J/'-/~ _··_...."__m......__.. _,~____,___,__..___.."'_..__..,' "~.._,_~."__________. 9 To: City Council Subject: Responsibility of Elementary and High School District regarding Chula Vista Environment Backaround. The School districts provide one of the most organized bases for education of our children. While there has been considerable effort in the past to encourage curriculum changes to include environmental issues and practices, the management of the districts appears to disregard the requirements imposed on the rest of the community. According to fragmentary information provided by city Staff (Recycling Coordinator), the educational facilities are not subject to the same rules and regulations to which the residents are subject. If correct, we are living by double standards. Recommended Action. Review the California statutes for inconsistencies between standards and requirements of the educational facilities toward the community. If there are, indeed, inconsistencies, communicate with those districts and request compliance with rules of the community. Subjects include walkways clear of overgrown weeds and similar issues. /!-JJ ".__..._-------_.,.--"._.._--_._..._---"-~_.--~-.--- 10 To: City Council Subject: City Landscaping Backaround. The city of Chula vista has imposed a mandatory yard waste program that encourages mulching to reduce the water requirements in landscaping. It does not appear the the city is requiring enforcement of this policy. At the City Hall complex and at least at the fire stations on East J and Oxford, the mulch material is carefully removed and "disposed of." Recommended Action. If the city imposes requirements on its citizens, it is reasonable to comply itself. Recommend use of composting material as mulch in all city facilities and recommend San Diego County facilities within the Chula vista sphere also comply as a "good neighbor" policy. //- ) 1 .··__.._O..__.___^ .. -------_....,,_._.~..._-_.- 11 To: City Council SUbject: Land-Use Backqround. The quality of life of the residents of Chula vista has been deteriorating due to the spread of urbanization. This can be seen in air quality, traffic congestion, scho~l overcrowding, and the lack of natural landscapes which not only provides us with a buffer from urbanization but also is essential habitat for the other species in our biotic community. Recommended Action. The City take a positive position on the preservation and restoration of natural habitats. These habitats include the otay Ranch, Bayfront, otay River Valley, etc.. The City should aggressively seek funds for a otay Ranch Ecosystem Restoration Project. Funds should be sought from Federal State, and Local governments as well as non-profits such as the Nature Conservancy. )/-15 ---..- 0- ..___.....,..__"..,~ ..__.__.......__. _.. 12 To: City Council Subject: Brown Field Curfew Backqround. Brown Field in San Diego has no curfew. That is why on September 17, 1993, at 3:15 AM, a Mexican jet was allowed to land there; the noise from this landing disturbed and awoke residents many miles away. A spokesman at Brown Field stated that there needs to be a curfew there and the San Diego City Council could enact one. Recommended Action. city Council communicate with the City of San Diego recommending establishment of landing/take-off limitations similar to those imposed at Lindberg Field. //-/6 ..._.__,.___.~.._._"_._.u___. "_,_______~._ 13 To: City Council Subject: Overcrowded Schools Backqround. Chula Vista Schools are over-crowded. This situation is associated with increased use of drugs, increased gang activities, increased graffiti on city properties, and falling standardized test scores in the city school district. Recommended Action. City council communicate with Chula Vista, Sweetwater School Districts and School Boards. Suggest positive action toward reducing class size. Future rezoning and General Plan Amendments should be subject to availability of school facilities. //~/ 7 .

In the statement of Goals and Policies for the RCC (2. 32.030 Band J) the RCC has been given the duty to "take all action necessary to provide people with...enjoyment of aesthetic, natural, and scenic qualities..." The new pier I Imports on Bonita Road lacks these aesthetic, natural, and scenic qualities, and should not have been approved. Discussion. The Sweetwater Community Planning Group approved design. There was no objection by Design Review Committee. Recommended Action. city Council refer this to Design Review Committee. RCC recommends DRC to consider environmental aesthetic qualities in future deliberations.

It was moved Md seconded (Kracha/Burrascano) not to excuse Commissioner Guerreiro from the last workshop meeting Md tonight's meeting; 4-1, no-Myers. APPROVAL OF MINUTES: It was MSUC (Burrascano/Myers) to approve the minutes of the meeting of November 22, 1993; 5-0. NEW BUSINESS: 1. IS-91-15 Negative Declaration - Bonita Hills Executive Estates. Kracha raised questions on the lot lines Md division of property. Myers asked if the school district was satisfied with the proposed project. She noted that letters œted 10/1190 Md 1014/90 received from the school district were outdated Md requested new letters be submitted. Burrascano raised concerns of mitigation for the revegetation work. She felt the negative declaration is insufficient for the following reasons: it does not adequately address the study of amphibiM Md reptile in the area, the individual impact of homes to open space with endangered species nesting in low brush, no limitation as to whether the work will be done during breeding season, Md the revegetation plM as it affects the sewage Md drainage pipe. GhougassiM noted there has been considerable redesign of the project for mitigation. He felt no need for the EIR Md further bureaucracy to delay the project. It was moved Md seconded (GhougassianlKracha) to accept the negative declaration; motion failed 3-2, ayes: Ghougassian, Kracha, Hall; nos: Burrascano, Myers. Ghougassian noted that the project only includes eight acres Md about 12 homes, as opposed to a large development. He felt that there is more economic interest to the developer Md that the bureaucracy should not interfere in his objectives. The environmental impact is not significant enough to delay the project MY longer. It was moved Md seconded (Burrascano/Myers) to have this project go to a full environmental impact report due to the deficiencies in the negative declaration Md the impact to the schools.

Meeting Date 2/8/94 ITEM TITLE: Resolution I 73g'7. . Agreement with Merrick and Approvmg an Company for photogrammetry, surveying, and planimetric mapping services. SUBMITTED BY: Director of Public WorkS¡ ~ REVIEWED BY: City Manager~~i ~\o (4/5ths Vote: Yes_No--X.) Referral 2759 and 2765 This Agreement is for photogrammetry, surveying, and planimetric mapping services which will achieve several purposes. First, it will update two very important data sets, which are the sets of maps showing topographic contours and orthophotos (aerial photos corrected for distortion). Second, it will establish some much needed first and second order survey control points in the city, and third, it will collect data on the sewer system and other city facilities which will be used to support the city's infrastructure maintenance programs. All of this data will be in a computer format so that it may be stored and maintained on the city-wide Geographic Information System (GIS). As a part of the GIS system, this data will be developed into various base maps and databases available to all city departments; and thereby supporting city staff in providing accurate and consistent information to the public. This agreement begins implementation of the third phase of the approved CIP project for the city-wide GIS. The first two phases for design and acquisition of the city-wide GIS system hardware and software were approved by previous Council action. As planned in the CIP, this third phase is for data collection and updating of key and necessary information of the City's valuable infrastructure assets. The city will derive many benefits by using the data on the GIS system. One benefit is the improvement in service by providing more accurate and more consistent information to the public; another significant benefit is the increased efficiency which will result in operational cost savings over the long term. Many specific applications and products will eventually be developed to meet the needs of the public as well as City staff. An example of a specific product may be a map to promote economic development by showing available vacant or unimproved properties in the City with zoning and other information of interest to a potential developer or investor. Additional benefits and savings are listed in the following discussion. RECOMMENDATION: That Council adopt the resolution awarding an agreement in the amount of $572,128 with the firm of Merrick and Company; and authorizing the expenditure of $572,128 from the GIS project CIP; and authorizing the Mayor to execute said agreement. BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: Not applicable. /02 - / ---.~._._-------_._.._-_.-._----_._----------_._,.- Page 2, Item ¡;Z Meeting Date 2/8/94 DISCUSSION: General This agreement will achieve a major portion of the base mapping and database development phase of the city-wide GIS CIP project, which is the third phase of the GIS project. As presented at a Council Workshop on GIS (February 1992) and in the Council Agenda Statement of April 27, 1993 and May 11, 1993 (see attachments of Council Agenda Statements and Council Minutes), the overall GIS project is comprised of three phases: (1) system design, (2) GIS system hardware and software acquisition and implementation, and (3) base mapping and database development. The first phase, system design, has been completed. The second phase, system acquisition and implementation, was approved by Council on May 11, 1993 and is near completion. Both of these phases have been on budget as identified in the CIP detail sheet (attached). Staff has been developing a parcel base map of the city with a link to the Assessor's database; this base map of 44,000 parcels is expected to be completed by March 1994, at which time the first major application for city-wide use will be available. This first application will fully automate the radius search-mailing list function used by all departments; and will consequently increase staff productivity by reducing the time required to perform this function. As presented in previous reports, there are many benefits and savings from the city-wide GIS project. The benefits and savings are both tangible and intangible, direct and indirect, and may be realized in short and long term time frames. The following benefits and savings were extracted from the May 11, 1993 Council Agenda Statement: · Short-term (years 2-5 of project) savings are projected to be $430,600 annually (based on specific savings from identified applications listed in the GIS Table of Applications). · Long-term (years 5-10 of project) savings are projected to be $628,100 annually (based on specific savings from identified applications listed in the GIS Table of Applications). · A savings of $4.0 million is projected over ten years; this is the difference at the end of ten years between the cumulative cost of continuing to perform tasks manually versus using the GIS to automate the tasks. · The Benefit/Cost Ratio ranged from 2:1 to 4:1; which is the identified savings due to the GIS versus the cost of the GIS. · Productivity increases ranged from 2: 1 to 10: 1; this ratio is generally the efficiency difference due to automating a manual process (i.e. manual updating of maps requiring one hour may only take twenty minutes using a GIS resulting in a ratio of 3:1). · The breakeven or payback period ranged from 3.5 to 8 years; which is the time required for the savings and benefits from the system to pay for the cost or investment of the system. · Average Rate of Return is 30%; which is the annual return of savings for the investment. During the Council discussions of April 27, 1993 and May 11, 1993, which considered and approved the second phase of the GIS CIP project, two issues were referred to staff. The first was a question on why Sewer Funds were contributing to the GIS project (Referral 2759), and since this was raised during the second phase, which was for the acquisition of the system hardware and software, it is understandable that there may be some difficulty in visualizing how /;(-~ _ _ _ ,__. _··_··_..,___..__..u___._." ___.___..~___u____,,~~__.._. ._,___._...__ ...._. _ Page 3, Item /;2.. Meeting Date 2/8/94 the sewer system will directly benefit from the GIS project. However, this third phase of the project concentrates on the collection of infrastructure data, and will specifically collect data on the sewer system and on the storm water system. In fact, it is because the sewer system is mostly dependent on gravity flow that there is a need to determine the elevation of the infrastructure. This and other data collected as part of the GIS project is important in the operation and maintenance of the sewer system, and this is particularly true during an emergency situation. For example, in the event of a hazardous materials spill that has somehow entered the sewer system, it is critically important to be able to rapidly determine the underground locations, connections, and flow parameters of the sewer system to respond in a timely and effective manner. Another example of the use of this information in the GIS is in determining which section of main (at the junction of two or three sections) will be affected first if the system is blocked downstream so that the crews can then respond to avoid potential impact to homeowners. This data in the GIS is similarly important for storm water runoff predictions, and other flow or flooding determinations. Other uses include the development of applications to support engineering analysis and design, and to support operations and maintenance of the sewer and storm water systems. For example, some of the data collected will be used in a maintenance management program to support the sewer crews in determining timely inspections and maintenance schedules. Timely inspections and maintenance of the sewer mains promote the life of the infrastructure or may identify potential problems such as infiltration before they become major problems. In both these examples, the avoidance of having to prematurely replace a section of sewer main or the avoidance of having to process additional effluent due to infiltration, will ultimately benefit the rate payers of the sewer system. The second issue referred to staff was regarding the allocation of the savings from GIS to the funding sources of the project (Referral 2765). To address this issue, staff has been monitoring the uses and products created by the GIS system. However, at this point there has been very few uses or products because the GIS system is still in the early development phase, and staff has been developing the core base maps and databases which is the basic foundation layer of information necessary for all future development of data, applications, and products. Currently being developed is the city parcel map consisting of approximately 44,000 parcels. This is the first of several basic foundation layers and is expected to be completed by March 1994. Staff will continue to monitor the benefits and savings derived from the GIS as the uses and products increases; and will report more information on the benefits and savings realized as it becomes available. As mentioned earlier, this portion of the third phase concentrates on the sewer and storm water infrastructure data; the City's other assets and infrastructure data such as street lights, traffic signals, trees, street signs, etc. will be collected using a different method and will likely be under another agreement in the next fiscal year. Backr¡round The City of Chula Vista normally uses and maintains various sets of information and base maps. The intent of this project is to update several vital sets of base maps and databases, and to provide new data necessary for better operation of the City. Specifically, this project will: (1) densify existing survey controls by adding new survey control monuments of high accuracy /;¿~3 _.'~.,._._.___'~_. _.. - .. . _..0____ _,._.___ Page 4, Item /~ Meeting Date 2/8/94 throughout Chula Vista, (2) perform controlled aerial photography and triangulation which is necessary to complete items (3)-(6), (3) create a digital elevation model based on elevation data, (4) create contour data and maps, (5) collect planimetric data on city facilities such as sewer manholes and storm drainage catch basins, and (6) create digital orthophotos. The area covered by this project includes both the city and its General Plan area. Most cities, especially the cities with growth, development, and other land changes, regularly update their key sets of maps every five to eight years. However, the City of Chula Vista has not updated two of its more important map sets in over twenty years, which are the contour map and the set of orthophotos (orthophotos are aerial photos that have been rectified to correct any distortions from lens angle at the time of the photography or from the edge of the camera lens). Recently, cities such as Vista, and Escondido have had similar projects done. RUIS, the Regional Urban Information Systems which is an agency of both the City of San Diego and the County of San Diego, has within the past year also started a similar project of surveying, planimetric mapping, and orthophotography for the City of San Diego Water Utilities Department. The densification of 1st and 2nd Order (highest levels of accuracy) survey controls will improve the quality of the local geodetic control which is used by surveyors and engineers to locate and reference their maps (i.e. parcel maps, final maps of subdivisions, Record of Surveys, etc.). This is necessary because there currently are very few such controls in Chula Vista and because these survey controls are needed to link the aerial photos to a controlled ground location. This task is also important because it will provide the basis for updating the coordinates of the City's base maps to the North American Datum of 1983 (NAD83) from the current basis of NAD27. National standards have long required that survey control work be done based on NAD83; so while map submittals for many years have been in NAD83 coordinates, it has been difficult to properly incorporate these individual maps onto the base map using these coordinates. The aerial photography and analytical aerotriangulation process is a necessary step because it is the controlled aerial photography that produces the high resolution photo images which are then processed through analytical triangulation stereo plotters to produce elevation data and terrain models. This process of compiling maps by measurement of controlled aerial photos is known as photogrammetric mapping, and is the accepted standard method for obtaining contour data or developing topographic contour maps of large areas. The digital elevation model (DEM) is a cartographic representation of the surface of an area created from the elevation data. The DEM is an intermediate step toward the development of the contour map, and in the future, it may be used for three-dimensional views and modeling. One important base map set is the topographic contour map (scale: 1" =200') which shows the elevation and shape of the land, and is used by many departments for planning, engineering design, and other purposes. As mentioned earlier, the City of Chula Vista has not updated the contour base map in over twenty years. This means that when considering grading, storm water runoff, sewer system design, and other slope/contour related issues, very conservative assumptions must be used in the decision making process. This contour map needs to be updated to provide the latest information for on-going review, and because of new requirements /02 -'/ ..---..--... .. .-......,-...---.- .. ,--~..._.._----"_.-- '.,------_.--,..._,- Page 5, Item /:2.- Meeting Date 2/8/94 such as the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) program which requires identification of potential pollution discharge locations. Planimetric mapping is the collection of data that are visible and identifiable on aerial photos such as roads, curbs, sidewalks, manholes, etc., and that can be compiled into map features through photogrammetric procedures. The importance of this type of mapping is that it shows the locational relationship of existing features to each other. The collection of this data is necessary because there currently is no composite base map showing the locations of sidewalks, curbs, and catch basins; and there is no complete inventory of sewer manholes. As more infrastructure and street improvements are built, this information is becoming more and more important for efficient infrastructure maintenance activity and scheduling. The last important product from this project is a set of digital orthophotos. As stated earlier, the last time a set of orthophotos was produced for the city was over twenty years ago. While from time to time there are aerial photos taken for various purposes, these often only cover a limited project area. The orthophotos, which are corrected for distortions, provide a more accurate snapshot of the city's terrain. More importantly, the contour elevation lines are mapped over orthophotos instead of over regular aerial photos because uncorrected distortions of the regular photos may make the terrain or slope appear to be more or less steep than it really is, resulting in inaccurate engineering calculations. In summary, this project is a major investment in the maintenance of the City's valuable infrastructure, and in the long term future of the City. The processes and products from this project will update much of the old outdated data necessary for the management and operation of the City. This data and other new data will be captured in a digital format so that it may be incorporated into the GIS system so that future use and updating of the data will be much more efficient. The long term effect of this investment will be in the significant benefits and savings previously listed on Page 2 of this document. Selection Process The following information is a summary of the RFP and selection process, which resulted in the selection of Merrick and Company to provide photogrammetry, surveying, and planimetric mapping services. A Request For Proposal (RFP) was developed that included the basic tasks for photogrammetry, survey control, orthophotography, and planimetric data of the sewer and storm water systems. In addition, planimetric data collection of the City's other facilities such as street lights, traffic signals, street signs, transit furniture, etc. was a included in the RFP as optional tasks which at the City's discretion, mayor may not be executed. On November 6, 1992 staff issued this comprehensive request for proposals for photogrammetry, surveying, and planimetric mapping services. The availability of the RFP was advertised in GIS trade journals for several months and was also advertised in a local newspaper for five days. Fifty seven (57) copies of the RFP were requested and sent to potential contractors. A pre- proposal conference for the potential contractors was held on November 18, 1992 with the /02~~ _ _ _.,...._.__.._,.__,..___~__u__._._._ _ n.__..__._.____.._.____..___..______ ,..

The Selection Committee evaluated and rated all of the proposals on a points basis using a form (see attached sample evaluation form) based on the pre-established criteria listed in the RFP, which included: ability to fulfill the City's technical objectives, methodology and techniques employed in meeting specifications, cost, company/team stability, references and experience, qualifications of key personnel, quality control techniques, and general responsiveness to the RFP. The evaluation resulted in three proposals being selected to the short-list for further /c2 -? ...--..-.--..-.-...-.....-------. ....-.-.. -.-.--. ..---.---,--....-.." Page 7, Item /02- Meeting Date 2/8/94 consideration. The three short-listed proposals were from the following firms: Analytical Surveys, Inc., Merrick and Company, and Towill Inc. The remaining nine proposals were eliminated from further consideration for the following reasons. Mapping Automation and Professional Services, Intera, Pictorial Sciences of Arizona, Greenhorne & O'Mara, and Rattray and Associates were eliminated as non-responsive partial proposals because they did not address one or more of the tasks required in the RFP. Horizons, Inc., Geonex, Digital Mapping, Inc., and Aerial Data Reduction were eliminated because they were rated substantially lower than the top three proposals based on their methodology, techniques, quality control procedures, qualifications of key personnel, and past experience. Each of the three short-listed firms was then invited for an interview to discuss the project tasks in detail. During this evaluation process, staff determined that the optional tasks, which were to collect planimetric data on city facilities such as street signs, street lights, traffic signals, etc., would be more cost effective to collect at a later date using other methods; and therefore eliminated the cost of the optional tasks from consideration. These optional data collection tasks will be accomplished later using other more cost effective methods. For example, city staff may collect some of the data by purchasing special data collection equipment which could also be used in the future for on-going data maintenance; and/or another advanced technology method would be to use GPS (Global Positioning System) with mobile video logging that would not only provide an inventory and location, but may also be useful as a video reference of existing city facilities (i.e. visibility of street signs, pavement conditions, etc.). Based on the proposal evaluation, the interviews, and the cost without the optional tasks, the Selection Committee has selected the proposal from Merrick and Company as the one that best meets the requirements of the City, and is the lowest cost of the short-listed firms. In particular, the project techniques and methodology proposed by Merrick and Company will result in detailed data that is significantly above the standard specifications. This means the resolution of the digital orthophotos are much better than the next highest rated proposal; therefore, more of the street features and city facilities may be distinguished, and greater enlargements/"zooming in" of the orthophotos may be achieved before the photo imagery breaks-up and becomes indiscernible. Merrick and Company also has good experience in similar projects with other municipal agencies. Cost without optional tasks Merrick and Company $ 572,128 Analytical Surveys, Inc. 605,453 Towill, Inc. 908,389 The other two proposals that had been short-listed were ranked in the following order: rated second is Analytical Surveys, Inc., and third is Towill, Inc. The Analytical Surveys, Inc. proposal was good, but the resulting digital orthophotos would have a much lower imagery resolution than the highest rated proposal because the methodology and techniques proposed would have the aerial photos taken from a higher altitude. The Analytical Surveys, Inc. /02 ~ '/ .. .--"._._----------------,-,.,-----~--,._---,-_...- . Page 8, Item /;¿ Meeting Date 2/8/94 proposal was also rated second because it did not have the lowest cost. The Towill proposal, rated third, was also a technically good proposal, but their cost is much higher than the other two, and their experience in similar projects with local governments was not as extensive as the other two short-listed firms which had much more experience in similar projects. This phase of the project has taken several months longer than usual because of the highly technical nature of the project and because of the dependency and sequencing of the data in order to obtain a quality product. Throughout the evaluation procedure, and in surveying other cities with similar projects, staff has realized the importance of understanding the technical processes and details necessary in this type of project, and has consequently taken the time and effort to learn and understand them. For example, the aerial photo camera must be calibrated and the photos must be taken within a limited amount of camera tilt and within a limited amount of altitude variance in order for the photo distortions to be rectified. The photos are then used in a stereo plotter for a three-dimensional view of the terrain to pick out ridge line points and elevation points. This elevation data is then used to create contour lines and digital terrain models from which infrastructure slope design or drainage flows may be calculated. Each level of data is derived from the previous data set and is therefore dependent on the quality of that previous data set. While the contractor will be performing quality control steps as part of the process, it will be the responsibility of City staff to critically review and approve or reject each data set prior to its use for the next step. Most cities contract a consultant to perform the Quality Assurance (QA) review; however, staff has determined that it would be beneficial to perform the QA process in-house, and has therefore spent several months to study the technology and processes in detail and has used this knowledge in the evaluation and final selection of the contractor for this project. This knowledge and understanding will also be fundamental in the inspection and acceptance or rejection of each data set. Prior to the RFP and throughout the evaluation procedure, other cost savings opportunities were investigated, including a possibility of utilizing some orthophotography and photogrammetry from the City of San Diego Water Utilities Department. Through RUIS, the Water Utilities Department had a similar, but limited project, performed about a year ago. A detailed investigation into all the ramifications of sharing their data revealed that their orthophoto resolution was significantly lower due to the following factors: 1) a higher aerial photo altitude, 2) no contour information was produced, 3) the photos only covered two narrow corridors where their water mains traverse through Chula Vista, 4) much extra work would be required to blend in their photos to new photos from this project, 5) their photos were taken a year ago and since that time there has been significant land development in the area of their photos resulting in outdated and inconsistent photos which would need to be merged to a new photo set, 6) no sewer or storm water facilities data was collected in their area photos, therefore, the area covered by their photos would have to be rephotographed. All of these negative ramifications eliminated the possibility of using their limited data set. The attached Agreement with Merrick and Company reflects the above reduction, includes a performance bond, and retention of 10% of payment for all phases until final acceptance of the fully completed project. In addition to a San Diego area subcontractor performing the surveying work, Merrick and Company has agreed to use "local" labor resources (i.e. local temporary employment agencies) for temporary help to accomplish the marking of utility features, such as sewer manholes, catch basins, and survey control points by painting them so that they may be ):2-íJ' - - ~._..~ ._-_.._...~--,-~--_.__._-_.__....._---_.- -- ."--. ---".-- Page 9, Item 1c2- Meeting Date 2/8/94 recorded and seen on the aerial photos. The City of Chula Vista has not contracted with Merrick and Company for any other services in the past. FISCAL IMPACT: This action would authorize the expenditure of $572,128 of previously appropriated funds in the GIS project CIP. All of the funding sources are from non-General Fund sources as identified in the CIP Detail Sheet for the GIS Project and is specified in Attachment 1.

Boogaard, City Attorney To: Honorable Mayor and Councilpersons cc: City Manager Public Works Director Joseph Garcia Re: Response to referral from Joseph Garcia re propriety of certain sewer-related funding matters, and certain procedures used by the Council at public meetings. Referral No. 2772 Background: At the City Council meeting of May 11, 1993, the City Council approved an agreement with ESRI, Inc. to provide the hardware, installation, and program software to permit the Geographic Information System ("GIS") to operate. At that meeting, Joseph Garcia expressed various concerns, a copy of which is attached hereto, with the item as herein paraphrased. Items of Concern and Responses thereto: The matter was referred to my Office for an investigation and report. Our responses are bolded below the paraphrased concern, as follows: . garcia2. wp Response to Mr. Garcia's Concerns February 8, 1994 Page I /oZ-lô - ---- ----..----...---.--.". -_.~_.__..,.__.-- A. Was ESRI, Inc. properly chosen as a consultant? Response: Yes, the City's consultant selection process and policy was properly followed. 1. ESRI has "carte blanche", once they have their foot in the door" on a $295,731 contract, to get the balance of the budgeted amount of $2,400,501. Response: We disagree. ESRI provided the hardware and software to run the system for approximately $281,772, and provided a ¡axed price 5 year maintenance and support agreement. They can offer special programming, if we should need it, at add on rates, but it is not expected that we will need it. If we do, they are committed to providing it at ¡axed hourly rates agreed to in the agreement. a. We will have to return their software if we terminate them per Article 11. Response: Generally, ownership of software is not sold. It is licensed for use. So Mr. Gjlrcia's statement is true but it is true of most all software deals. Other arrangements for the ownership of the software are very expensive and, although offered in this case, was not thought to be cost efficient inasmuch as we were able to negotiate for the ownership of the software code in the event ESRI goes out of business or becomes bankrupt. b. Article 25 poses hazards for the City. Response: Article 25 gives the City the right to the software source code if ESRI goes out of business or files for bankruptcy. We think Mr. Garcia believes it would be difficult to get the source code in such event and wanted a copy of the source code deposited with an independent trustee. This is a good idea with rare, specialized software and will be incorporated in future contracts if negotiable where appropriate. In this case, it is not felt to be a serious omission because (1) generation of the ESRI source code is available without additional programming; (2) ESRI is a substantial company that has been in business for at least 20 years; (3) the source code is constantly being updated so ~ deposit requirement would be outdated unless constantly supervised; (4) the software type is readily replaceable with other software that can be run on our existing hardware and which can read the databases which we will generate. garciaZ. wp Response to Mr. Garcia's Concerns February 8, 1994 Page 2 / 2-~/Lf ---.-.- -~-~--~---_...- ----. ---- B. Are sewer charges being used to fund non-sewer operations? Response: Yes, but only by market rate loans from the sewer reserves while they are otherwise idle, being built up to fund Metro Sewer improvements, or our own sewer improvements. 1. Voice Massaging System. a. The Voice Massaging System was paid for with a $50,000 loan from sewer fund which loan was at 6% interest, had a 5 year amortization, and was repayable from PFDIF. Response: This was considered to be a fair market rate loan. b. The pretense that the Voice Massaging System is a "backup" in the case of an emergency involving the sewers is not valid. Response: This was not offered as our strongest justification for borrowing against the Sewer Fund. The Council is the best judge of this rationale. 2. Excessive reserve is unnecessary. Response: This Office believes that the "large" reserve which we are developing will only be a small part of what we will need to pay for sewer upgrades eventually, and the Council's policy of "ramping up" the increases in order to avoid a sudden hugh increase is valid. 3. Geographic Information System. . a. The Sewer Fund is bearing a disproportionate part of the GIS System. Response: This Office disagrees and believes that there are controls in place that will require that the GIS System will provide value to the various Funds paying for it in proportion to the amount each such fund contributes to its cost. (1) The Sewer Fund is only supposed to bear 56%, and is starting off bearing 67% Response: This is generally correct, but the sewer fund will be the first fund to get the benefit of the GIS System so that the garcia2. wp Response to Mr. Garcia's Concerns February 8, 1994 Page 3 , / 2-/~ ~--_. ----------_._-------~,_._-- ---- -~-~-~~._- .._-~--,--_._.- initial costs being charged to the sewer funds is proportionate to the timing at which the benefits will be received by the sewer system. b. The GIS Program is too expensive. National City is mapping their sewers for $40,000. Response: National City only video tapes their sewers, and so do we. This GIS System will determine angle and rate of fall, interconnections, closure points, and much more. c. Residents have not had enough time to study the GIS Proposal sufficient even to frame questions before it got Council approval on two successive Tuesdays. Response: This is probably correct. To correct this transgression, we gave Mr. Garcia a personal tour of the GIS System to acquaint him with the power and purpose of the GIS System. C. Conduct of Public Meetings. , 1. A system needs to be in place for a resident/taxpayer to have more than 5 minutes to address the City Council on these important issues. a. Section 31 ° of the Charter. Response: A person desiring to address the Council can request additional time, make organized presentations, request pre-meetings with staff, request continuances, etc, which the Council can entertain on a case-by-case basis. We believe that the Council's broadbased noticing policy which tends to trigger the aforementioned procedures generally does not allow the 5 minute time limitation at Council meetings to become a problem. 2. The procedure of removed items from the Consent Calendar and placing them at the end of the agenda (typically late in the evening) precludes practical participation by the public who have to get up early the next day. Removed items should be discussed early b~fore the consent agenda is passed. Response: The Council may wish to reorder the business before them at the beginning of each meeting based on the nature and extent of public interest in, and the amount of staff required to "service", each item of business garcia2. wp Response to Mr. Garcia's Concerns February 8, 1994 Page 4 I L-I b ,-, ....... -_._..--..~,-.--~--,. -,.,-...------..-.--.- before them that evening, rather than the order of presentation set forth in the agenda. To accomplish, the agenda could provide a place for taking requests for priority from the public and staff at the beginning of the Agenda. . . garcia2. wp Response to Mr. Garcia's Concerns February 8, 1994 Page 5 12-rf _. .··___···_____'_._...M"'_______.._..__.-."_____.,_,.,.._____._______. . ·rl .,. , . fYlHe " \ . . ,.

This is a letter from Mrs, Mildred Hook, Chairman of the Visually Impaired Group at Fredericka Manor requesting a sound signal for pedestrians at Third Avenue and E Street. Sound signals for the visually impaired were installed at Third Avenue and F Street in 1990 at a cost of approximately $4,500 plus labor. This appears to be a pedestrian safety issue.

TAXPAYERS Mr. Bruce Boogaard, City Attorney City of Chula Vista 276 Fourth Avenue Chula Vista, Ca 91910 Dear Mr. Boogaard: ~his letter is in reference to City Council proceedings of May II, current, conducted at City Ball. ~he issues I wish to address and ask your legal opinion, are in reference to the ESRÌ, (Environmental Systems Research Institute, Inc.), contractual agreement and procedure by the City Council, in awarding said contract, the bidding procedures employed by the City Staff in arriving at a designated contractor, the use of Sewer Funds for funding city operations, not totally related to Sewer Tax collections, and the designation on the City of Chula Vista Council Meetings Agenda, Council Item/Issues procedures and placement for enactment and discussion under the Consent Calendar and Items/Issues removed from the Consent Calendar for later discussion. We, the Taxpayers of this Community, have been led to believe that the increases in Sewer Taxes, collected by the Sweetwater Authority and forwarded to the City ~ Treasurer, have been necessary because of the sewer rate ~~~? increases and contributions to the City of San Diego Waste /'~ í'~ Management District. These taxes, we have been told, are " computed on a flow rate basis of millions of. gallons per. day, plus an annual fee, to the San Diego Metropolitan c.c. . Sewer District. Sewer Taxation, we are led '·to believe, < ! ~i for direct sewer related costs., . , ryPBut this 1s not so. Chula Vista City Staff . - t:ttt;: Administration, on February 9, 1993, adopted Resolution . '16984, on the Council Agenda's Consent Calendar, and ". the City of Chula Vista, awarding the contract. to ATEL, Inc. The City Council authorized a -Loan from the Sewer Fund-, ~ in the amount of $50,000.00, to be paid back to the Sewer 'L· L,/ Fund, in a period of five-years and a loan interest rate~l7 of six percent, from Public Facility Development Impact /2--20 . -----------.-.'..,----..----..-.--.-.---.---".. ----- ~ , . . cont'd (2) ~) Fees. QUESTION? What Statutory Authority does the City Council have, to collect and/or taz the people of this Community, Chula Vista, under the aegis of a Specific Taz Levy, and then begin a program of continual borrowinq, from that Specific Fund, for other City Ezpenditures, not related to the collection of that Specific Taz? The Sewer Taz collected from the residents of Chula Vista, is obviously greater than is necessary for Sewer Services, or you would not be BORROWING from that Fund with the provisions of restoring the monies, with Interest. The Sewer Taz is being collected under SUBTERFUGE, to raise revenue for City Operations, not related to the Sewer costs. There is currently, in the Sewer Taz Account, City of Chula Vista Finance Department, approzimately, Eight Million, siz hundred and eighty seven thousand, seven hundred and seventy siz dollars, ($8,687,776.00), as of March 1st, 1993., according to the Director of Finance, Mr. Lyman Christofer. In last nights action before the City Council, May 11, current, the City Council appropriated monies for an agreement with, ESRI, Inc. , for a GIS System, in the amount of an initial, $283,544.36. In accordance with the query by Mayor Nader and Councilman Moore, City Manager Mr. John Goss stated. that Fifty-Siz Percent (56\) of the appropriation would be from the Sewer Fund and would be a directly related ezpense factor, attributable solely to sewer mapping. However, you are in effect taking $624,133.00, from the Sewer Fund for the Initial Funding of the GIS System, for the first year, Fiscal 1992-1993. Since you do not have first year Development Impact Fees, you are borrowing from the Special Sewer Fund 221 for non-ezistent DIF, thus making the total from the Sewer Fund, $1,622,103.00 and/or 67.5 Percent, and not 56 Percent, and you are back dating these appropriated funds for fiscal year 1992,from this current date. SEWER FUND TAXES AGAINST THE RESIDENTS OF CHULA VISTA, ARE UNJUSTIFIABLY HIGH, AND ARE BEING USED AS A BANK UPON walCH TO FLOAT LOANS FOR OTHER CITY OPERATION EXPENSES. I question, Mr. Boogaard, the right of the City Council, to unduly penalize and impose taz duties, under the guise of SEWER TAXATION, on the Citizens of this Community, for the purpose of creating a BANK. 5b';¿ /2-ZI ...-H" -.._.~_. .._---_..__._~---_."-,---- . ., .. . \ cont'd (3) Another :Item in the G:IS Agreement with ESR:I. Xnc. , is that the bids shown. appear to be for a basic start- up kit, with the ESRI bid residing at $295,731.00, but will entail an amount for completion of $2.400,501.00. Since the City is committed to the initial costs with this company, subsequent ezpenditures are carte blanche for ESR:I. since they at this point have control of the program. and in addition, under the agreement. they maintain ownership to the software, manual. and related documentation, and must be returned to them if the City or the Contractor (ESR:I). terminate the agreement as per Article 11 of said agreement. notwithstanding the hazards to the City of Article 25. :I firmly believe that the City Staff have not protected the city too well in these negotiations. We are paying a significant amount. There are some matters that need to be answered and the City Council is not disposed to permitting the Tazpayer, enough time on the floor to ask too many questions. This issue will have to be addressed. City Administration is handling close to a Hundred Million Yearly Budget. and a Tazpayer, in many instances, are gaveled down after five minutes. The Tazpayer is providing the Taz Dollars. and have very limited say so. This can't possibly be right, and must change for the betterment of this community. Section 310 of the Cities Charter gives the Citizens of this Community. the right to participate, without being restricted or gaveled down, merely because the Council does not want to listen to criticism or inquiries into it's decision making. :I wish to point out to you. and :I enclose an article that appeared some time back in the news media. on the very successful and innovative way, that the City of National City is employing to map their Sewer System. The Sewer Department is doing the actual work. and look at the cost. $40.000.00. plus VCR tapes. No fancy programs. complicated software. or consultants. . The City of Chula Vista could simply invest in the same system. profit from the ezperience of National City, and reduce very significantly. the cost of the GIS program. Would the City of Chula Vista be interested, or would it be too frugal a program for our City Staff and Council? Let me touch, Mr. Boogaard, on the Voice Messaging System I mentioned earlier in this communique. Mr. Goss. City Hanager. stated at that meeting. that it would be very useful for backup. in case of emergency. Entirely not so. Voice messaging is used for message forwarding and b J voice mail. or to connect to a given department through a ~ ~ systems directory.;.·. I do not believe that it would be successful for emergencies. Try calling the City of Pomona, 'and then 'let ready to 'for'let it'. /2- 22. .....-....-.... -_.._.,-_.._---,-,,-,,--"'--_...~-_.~-_.__._~~ cont'd (4) ¿ .. .. , . . . . My conclusions, Mr. Boogaard, on the GIS System, is that it is complicated, it encompasses many facets of operation, is very costly, and the Taxpayers of this Community were not given sufficient time to study and digest, it'. contents in order to address inquiries regarding it'. need, at this time of economic stagnation in this country, and this county. Passed on two successive Tuesdays, is Dot enough time. The City Council has taken to removing Items from the Consent Calendar, and moving those Items for discussion, to the very last, on the Council Agenda Program. THEY 'l'BUS, SUCCEED, IN DISCUSSING COUNCIL MATTERS, CITY CODE AMENDMENTS AND RESOLUTIONS, AT TWO O'CLOCK IN 'l'BE MORNING, WHEN ALL 'l'BE TAXPAYERS ARE ASLEEP, AND THERE ARE NO PUBLIC REPRESENTATIVES IN THE CHAMBERS OF THE COUNCIL. MR. BOOGAARD , 'l'BIS IS MALFEASANCE BEHAVIOR. THE CITY COUNCIL DOES NO'!' HAVE THE RIGH~, '1'0 USE SUREPTI'J:IOUS MEANS, '1'0 ACCOMPLISH IT'S ENDS, AND DEPRIVE THE PEOPLE OF REASONABLE NO'!'ICE BEFORE 'l'BEIR PUBLIC FORUM, OF PARTICIPATING AND/OR WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME DURING THE DAY OR EVENING, OF LISTENING EITHER IN PERSON OR EARLY RE-BROADCAST ON PUBLIC CHANNEL 24, ON WEDNESDAY NIGHTS. IT SHOULD NOT BE DONE IN THE WEE HOURS OF THE MORNING, WHEN 1'1' IS UNCOMMONLY UNREASONABLE '1'0 DO SO, AND PASS LEGISLATION IN THE DARK OF THE NIGHT, UNNOTICED. THE PLACE FOR DISCUSSING ITæ,s REMOVED FROM THE CONSENT CALENDAR , IS BEFORE THE CONSENT CALENDAR IS ENACTED. AN ITEM REMOVED FROM THE CONSENT .CALENDAR SHOULD TAKE PRECEDENCE, OVER THE CONSENT CALENDAR , BECAUSE 'l'BE PARLIAMENTARY ACTION IS OF THE MOMENT, AND IT SHOULD NO'!' BE PROPER TO ASSIGN IT AS THE LAST ORDER OF BUSINESS FOR THE DAY. Pulling important items from the consent calendar for late discussion, looks more like a SCAM procedure and should be invalid, as not being NOTICED, reasonably, to the people. I will ask that you address this matter for the meeting of May 18th, current. I will conclude at this time. My objection to' the use of sewer funds for other than their intended purpose, may intensify through legal process. SEWER TAXATION SHOULD BE REDUCED, AND THE SURPLUS SHOULD BE RE'l'URNED '1'0 'l'BE TAXPAYERS OF THIS COMMUNITY. THE SEWER TAX IS '1'00 HIGH AND CANNOT BUT CAUSE HARDSHIP FOR MANY PEOPLE WITH LIMITED FIXED INCOMES. , 5J'i .

The City, in partnership with EastLake, is evaluating various incentive programs for attracting such industry. This proposal is being submitted to allow the partnership to evaluate the í feasibility of a shared biotechnology manufacturing facility at EastLake. A number of local biotechnology companies have been considering their options for manufacturing pharmaceuticals for use in Phase I and Phase II clinical uials. Several local companies, including Telios Pharmaceuticals, IDEC Phannaceuticals and ISIS Pharmaceuticals, have chosen to develop dedicated pilot manufacturing facilities. This strategy has proven to be enonnously expensive, and has put large amounts of investment capital at risk. Synergen invested $65 million in a Boulder, Colorado facility, only to find their lead compound placed on "clinical hold" by the Food and Drug Administration (''FDA''). The Telios facility is rumored to have cost in excess of $25 million, while the IDEC facility cost approximately $15 million. Other companies, including Amylin, have chosen to outsource their pilot manufacturing requirements. Amylin's research suggests that there are a very limited number of contract facilities available in North America, with none offering a Good Manufacturing Practices ("GMP") facility suitable for fermentation through purification. There is good reason to believe that strong demand exists locally, nationally, and internationally for such services. Given the complex, resource-intensive and protracted nature of the manufacturing facility planning and development process, NaJI is submitting this proposal to perform a feasibility study for a shared biotechnology manufacturing facility. For the purposes of {mf~KL the proposed studies, this facility will be refeITed to as BioShare. /7 -e- - -.-.- . .----.-- .-..~--.-._..-...~--.-.~-.. -- ,---.. .-..--....---. -~~.._---_...__._-~------_.._._..--.__._--~--- Proposal to City of Chula Vista February 8, 1994 Page 2 Scone of Services PrQoosed An organized approach to the analysis of the full aITaY of issues that must be considered for the successful planning, financing and operation of BioShare, is proposed.

Such a business plan would allow the project to be funded, and the BioShare business established. Work would commence on February 7, 1994 with an abbreviated Market SUIVey. Local market requirements would be gleaned from direct discussions with local companies, and through discussions with industty trade organizations, including UCSD Connect and the Biomedical Industty CounciL Information regarding the national and international markets will be gathered from national trade organizations, including the Biotechnology Industty Organization ("BIO"), the FDA and industty CEOs attending BIO's Spring meeting at Marco Island, Florida on February 16-18. Information reganling specific companies will be collected on a standardized questionnaire to þelp insure data consistency. SlImmary findings will be provided.

In addition, the desirable mix of bacterial, ]1ßmm~Ii~J!. cell culture and yeast manufacturing processes and their respective validation requirements will be studied. The study team will then consider various forms of organization and governance for the proposed facility. Various models for government-sponsored and government-facilitated facilities will be compared with those utilized for industry-sponsored and privately- sponsored shared manufacturing facilities. This work will include a review of shared manufacturing facilities in the semi-conductor manufacturing, agricultural and phannaceutical and biotechnology industries. The City of Chula Vista's involvement in the proposed project will then be considered. Issues ranging from financial guarantees, to water availability, to pennitting facilitation will be studied. Discussions will be held with members of the City Council, the Cty Attorney's office, the Economic Development organization, the Mayor's office, civic groups and local university administrators. This way, we hope to be able to evaluate the local government issues after obtaining a detailed understanding of such issues from discussions with experts both inside and outside local governmental organizations. Similar discussions will be held with executives from EastLake Development. These will be focused on obtaining information about ways in which these entities can directly participate in or facilitate the proposed project. Information regarding how this project will fit into the master plan for EastLake will also be considered. Once the operational issues have been studied, financing alternatives will be evaluated. The first step will be to identify the capital requirements for BioShare. Specific financing structures will then be identified. Finally, specific sources of public and private capital will be discussed, along with their potential availability for BioShare. Finally, conclusions regarding the project's feasibility and recommendations will be made. Specific recommendations will be provided regarding the scale of operations, technologies to be supported, the level of compliance that will be required, fonn of organization and governance, and appropriate roles for the City of Chula Vista and the EastLake Development Company. A specific financing structure will also be proposed. NIELSEN CAPITAL GROUP.
