PUBLIC HEARINGS AND RELATED RESOLUTIONS
4. PUBLIC HEARING HOUSING POLICIES REPORT FOR MORTGAGE REVENUE BONDS
(Community Development Director)
RESOLUTION 11862 APPROVING AND DIRECTING PUBLICATION OF A HOUSING
POLICIES REPORT
This being the time and place as advertised, Mayor Cox opened the public
hea ring.
Director of Community Development Desrochers explained that the Tax Reform Act
of 1984 imposes a new requirement on jurisdictions issuing tax exempt
single-family mortgage revenue bonds. In the year preceding a bond issue, a
jurisdiction must publish a report which sets forth the housing policies it
will apply to the bond issue and which assesses the City's single-family bond
activity for the previous twelve months. By Council action, the City has
requested a bond allocation from the State for 1984 which would be issued in
1986. Therefore, the report which must be undertaken this calendar year has
been submitted to Council for consideration.
City Council meeting - 3 - December ll, 1984
Council discussion followed with Mr.. Desrochers explaining this is a new
requirement for a program for the moderate income group, principally
first-time home buyers; $10 million dollars will be used over the next couple
of years; it is principally the same mortgage revenue bond issue of that used
1 ast year for the Housing Finance Agency with Livermore, E1 dorado and Menlo
Park; monies will be used to serve the EastLake and Terra Nova Subdivisions;
and revising the assessment figures to be put in the more accurate amount
(Chula Vista Woods home prices).
Councilwoman McCandliss referred to the goals of the policy indicating it was
quite nebulous. She indicated a statement should be added stating the Council
discourages concentration of these assisted-housing in any one area in the
community - diversity of sites is encouraged throughout the City. Director of
Community Development Desrochers said he would incorporate this suggestion
into the policy.
There being no comments either for or against, the hearing was declared
closed.
RESOLUTION OFFERED BY COUNCILMAN SCOTT, the reading of the text was waived by
unanimous consent passed and approved unanimously. (Councilman Malcolm was
absent)
Mayor Cox clarified the motion explaining the polic~ will be amended to
renumber the Policy, include another line "H" stating there w~ll be no
concentration on this type housing i n any one area of the community and update
the figures for the Chula Vista Woods sale prices of homes.
5. PUBLIC HEARING ISSUANCE OF VARIABLE RATE DEMAND COMMERCIAL
DEVELOPMENT REVENUE BONDS (Community Development
Director)

OF COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT REVENUE BONDS (SOUTH BAY
AMBULATORY SURGERY ASSOCIATES PROJECT),
1984-SERIES A, APPROVING RELATED DOCUMENTS AND
AUTHORIZING OFFICIAL ACTION
This being the time and place as advertised, Mayor Cox opened the public
hearing.
Director of Community Development Desrochers explained that in August 1983,
the Industrial Development Authority approved an application for Commercial
Revenue Bond Financing for South Bay Ambulatory Surge~ Center, a consortium
of local physicians who are constructing an outpatient surgical center at the
southeast corner of Landis Avenue and Davidson Street. The project calls for
the construction of a two-story building comprising approximately 15,000
square-feet.
City Council meeting - 4 - December ll, 1984
The Industrial Development Authority approved the project at their meeting of
August 8, 1983. The Redevelopment Agency approved an inducement resolution at
their meeting of March 20, 1984. The Town Centre Project Area Committee
approved the financing and land-use at their meeting of August 8, 1983. Staff
concurs with the recommendations.
Mr. Desrochers stated that Mr. Adams from the firm of Jones, Hall, Hill and
White, Bond Counselors is here this evenin9 to answer any questions. Mr.
Desrochers added the building was presently under construction and staff is
encouraging them to consummate the loan before the end of the calendar year so
the City will not go into its new allocation for the Industrial Development
Bonds.
There being no comments either for or against, the hearing was declared
closed.
Councilwoman McCandliss referred to the staff report which discussed the
health facilities, especially the treatment centers being specifically
eligible under the adopted criteria for this IDB financing. Staff stated the
project would (1) create jobs; (2) increase accessibility of health-care
facilities and (3) lower cost of health care services. Councilwoman
McCandliss said she would like to have a report back after the facility has
been in operation for one full year on these three points. She would like to
know the number of employees hired, the demographic information and the cost
of the program.
Councilman Scott commented that 60% of the municipal bonds are used by private
interests and the system has been overused. Under the President's new tax
bill, these bonds will be eliminated. The Council is a "loop hole" in order
to provide private businesses with low-cost loans.
RESOLUTION OFFERED BY MAYOR COX, the reading of the text was waived by
unanimous consent passed and approved with Councilman Scott voting "no"
(Councilman Malcolm absent).
MSUC (McCandliss/Cox) that after the first full year of operation, a report be
provided to the City Council addressing the following items:
(1) Creation of jobs.
(2) Increase accessibility of health care facilities.
(3) Lower cost of heal th care services.
(Councilman Malcolm arrived 7:35 p.m.)
Councilman Moore suggested a policy on this type of financing since there is
usually some justification for the Council helping industries. Councilman
Malcolm noted the State of California pays doctors more money for surgical
centers because they are cost-effective and save the tax-payers a great deal
of money. The staff can get any type of this documentation from the State.
City Council meeting - 5 - December ll, 1984
6. PUBLIC HEARING CONSIDERATION OF A PROPOSED AGRE~ENT TO GRANT
MODIFIED FRANCHISE AGREEMENT TO COX CABLE TELEVISION,
INC. (City Manager)
a. ORDINANCE 2095 GRANTING FRANCHISE AGRE~ENT BEll~EEN THE CITY OF
CHULA VISTA AND COX CABLE TELEVISION, INC. - FIRST
READING
This being the time and place as advertised, Mayor Cox opened the public
hea ri rig.
City Manager Goss explained that on April 16, 1964, the City Council adopted
Ordinance No. 882 granting a franchise to Area Television Antenna, Inc. to
operate a community antenna television system in the City of Chula Vista.
That franchi se was subsequently taken over by Cox Cable. The original
franchise under which Cox Cable operates is for 30 years, expires in 1994, and
provides a franchi se fee of 2% of gross revenues related only to the
transmission of general broadcast programs.
On October 30, 1984 the President signed S66, a comprehensive federal cable
bill designed to protect the cable industry's interest. The bill was later
modified in the House of Representatives.
Generally, the major elements of the proposed cable television franchise, as
recommended by the City Manager are:
1. The franchise fee is changed from 3% of basic cable service to 3% of
basic and pay cable television service and providing for quarterly
franchise fee payments.
2. Cox Cable provides separate channels for government education and
the public. The proposed franchise, in Section 8, spells out this
commitment which must be provided by Cox Cable at their own expense
without cost to the City.
3. Commitment by both parties to agree to discuss future
non-entertainment uses of cable television including the possibility
of entering into j oi nt ventures to promote business or other
non-entertainment uses of cable.
4. Requiring prior approval of the City Council when ownership or
control of 30% or more of the voting stock of the Grantee i s
acquired by another person or entity.
5o Provision regarding insurance°
6. Grantee maintain a written record of customer service requests and
complaints and make an annual report to the City.
City Council meeting - 6 - December 11, 1984
7. Provision in the franchise to determine the purchase price if the
City elects to purchase the cable system upon termination of the
franchise.
8. Rate setting is deregulated with the provision that the Grantee
establish its own rate and charges for services rendered to
subscri bets.
9. Proposed that this franchise, similar to the current one, be for a
25-year period.
10. It is estimated that the City will receive $71,000 in additional
revenue from the proposed franchise in 1985.
City Manager Goss requested the Council authorize setting aside some of the
revenues from the franchise in order to monitor the franchise during the next
year. Councilman Scott stated the 5-year negotiation element was of concern
to him. He recommended a termination date of 25 years, explaining that after
a 5-year period of time the Council could renew the contract for 25 years
thereby prolonging the termination date. By having a date certain, it would
give the Council more equity in the negotiation process. City Manager Goss
explained the renewal clause built into the contract stating there is control
to keep it at the 25-year time.
Mr. Robert McRann, Vice President and General Manager of Cox Cable TV stated
he was present to answer questions.
There being no further comments either for or against, the hearing was
declared closed.
Councilman Scott moved to have a 25-year contract with 5-year options. He
explained his proposal was for 25 years, 20 years, 15 years, lO years and
5 years instead of every 5 years gi vi ng Cox Cable a possi bl e 25-year
termination date. There is more flexibility when there is a terminus not
options.
The motion died for lack of second.
MSC (Malcolm/Moore) to place the ordinance on first readings the reading of the
text was waived by unanimous consent passed and approved with Councilman Scott
voting "no".
MSUC (Moore/McCandliss) to direct the City Manager to present a program of
setting aside a percentage of funds received to monitor the franchise of Cox

One year ago, the City Council appointed a two member City Council

members of the City Council.
The Assistant City Manager recommended providing the Mayor an annual market
basket equivalent to that now in effect for 1984-85 for executive management
personnel (~2,700) and provide members of the City Council the option of
electing to purchase Travelers or Kaiser health insurance for the members
and/or his/her dependents with the City paying the premium for said
employee/dependent coverage under the Travelers Insurance plan (currently
$2,117.44 per year) or, if a member elects not to purchase group health
insurance under either plan, a market basket amount of one half the total
annual cost of employee/dependent group insurance coverage under the Travelers
plan will be made available under the market basket concept for each member's
use for medical, dental, eye care or other market basket benefits.
The maximum annual cost under the current benefit plan for Mayor and
Councilmembers is ~5,008.54. Under the proposed program, 1984-85 maximum
annual cost would be $8,053.63 if each of the four members of the City Council
continue to select the same option they now have.
17. RESOLUTION 11876 ACCEPTING BIDS AND AWARDING CONTRACT FOR A FOUR DOOR
SEDAN AND AUTHORIZING THE TRANSFER OF ADDITIONAL
FUNDS (Director of Finance)
The current budget provides for the purchase of a new four door sedan to
replace the Mayor's 1977 sedan. $10,500 was budgeted but an additional $1,366
is required for the purchase.
South Bay Chevrolet submitted the low bid on a Chevrolet Caprice Classic four
door sedan. The bid meets specifications. The unit price of $11,193.52 plus
sales tax of $671.61 equals a total purchase price of $11,865.13.
The amount budgeted in 1984-85 for replacement of the Mayor's car is $10,500.
If the City accepts the trade-in allowance for the Mayor's old car, the
purchase cost of the new vehicle is within the budgeted amount. However,
staff is recommending the Mayor's old car not be traded in but replace an
existing older vehicle in the City's carpool~ The older carpool vehicle will
not be traded in but will be sold at an upcoming public auction.

willingness to serve on this Task Force asking them if they would be
willing to come to the meeting in an unofficial capacity. The Mayor will
ask the group to meet the 1 st of the year with the Navy and
representatives from Scripp's Housing Ranch Homeowners ' Association.
Councilman Moore asked that the Committee be informed of its objectives
and to have representatives from the City staff or elected officials
along with the Navy as ex-officio members.
b. Councilman Moore remarked he has observed a dish antenna in the lO0 block
of East "L" Street on the roof of one of the houses. At one time, the
Council decided to have a policy on dish antennae. Councilman Scott
stated he has observed three dish antennae in the City to date.
City Council meeting - 12 - December ll, 1984
MSUC (Scott/Moore) to have the staff prepare an ordinance regulating dish
antennae. The ordinance to be brought back as soon as possible.

doing to regulate dish antennae.
c. Councilman Scott referred to the memo received two or three weeks ago
from the planning staff stating they had two proposals for the vacant
property next to the Chula Vista Golf Course. One would be a hotel
complex and the other a senior citizen retirement facility. Councilman
Scott stated he envisions the property to be used for tourist
recreation and in his opinion, would be inappropriate for a senior
citizen retirement home.

that. In addition, the County has other programs which help the
mobilehome owners with capital improvements in their parks to keep the
rents down or contractual rents.
MSC (McCandliss/Malcolm) to refer this to staff for review to see if any of
the concepts could be applied to the City's mobilehome parks.
City Manager Goss con~ented that Escondido has such a program and it
would be more appropriate to refer this matter to the Mobilehome Park
Issues Comnittee. Councilwoman McCandliss said she sent a letter to this
Committee and would change her motion to refer to staff and the
Mobilehome Parks Issue Committee. Councilman Malcolm agreed to the
second and the motion carried unanimously.
