The rating agencies have been asked to rate the bonds so they can be sold publicly. The agencies require certain provisions which were not originally part of the financing documentation. Council was requested to approve certain changes in the indenture agreement. This information has been reviewed by the City's bond counsel, Jones Hall Hill and White, and found to be acceptable from the City's standpoint. The changes are technical in nature and do not substantially change any of the approved documents.

Recently, development plans for approximately 17 acres adjacent to Maxwell Road have changed and no longer require the extension of gas service. As a result, SDG&E has requested that the City approve a revised agreement which reduces the amount of gas line to be installed and reimburses $5,484 to the City. SDG&E also requested approval of a revised contract for the undergrounding of utility lines along Maxwell Road due to changes in the design of the project. There are no changes in the project cost.

This claim was based on the estimated cost for HandYtrans operation during FY 1983-84. The actual cost of HandYtrans operation for FY 1983-84 was $11,388 less than the original claim estimate, because of lower operating cost and higher revenues than estimated. The $11,388 will be returned to the Local Transportation Reserve fund and will be carried over to subsequent fiscal years to supplement future Article 4.5 funds. 15. REPORT ADVERTISING ON BUSES (Director of Public Works/City Engineer) At its meeting on October 9, 1984, Council accepted a staff report recommending to SCOOT Board that the Board terminate its advertising agreement with TDI/Winston Network effective January 1, 1985 and exterior advertising not be placed on the new Orion buses. Council also directed Transit staff to return with a report and recommendations concerning exterior advertising on the new buses in July 1985.

The International Friendship Commission, at their June 26, 1985 meeting developed the breakdown of expenditures for the 1985-86 budget. These expenditures would be in keeping with the proposed policy. Approval of this policy will guide the expenditure of approximately $1,000, as budgeted in the FY 1985-86 budget and future budgets for the International Friendship Commission. 20.

He requested that resident-only parking permits be issued so that residents along this street can park in excess of the one-hour limitation. Staff reviewed Mr. Muff's request as well as parking needs in this residential are~ and findings indicate that the existing City Code · contains no provisions for issuing parking stickers to residents in one-hour parking zones; there does not appear to be a student-related parking problem in the area; and the original purpose for the one-hour time limit no longer exists. Based on these findings, staff recommended the existing parking restrictions be removed. 23. REPORT ENVIRONMENTAL TASK FORCE This report prepared by individual members of the Task Force, as well as the Task Force as a whole, offers 21 specific recommendations which should be evaluated by staff in order to suggest a follow up option for these recommendations.

RESOLUTION APPROVING AN AGREEMENT WITH JONES HALL HILL AND WHITE FOR BOND COUNSEL SERVICES (Community Development Director) At the direction of Council and the Redevelopment Agency, a search was conducted for bond counsel services for both the Agency and the City. A question arose as to whether the City/Agency could obtain better, more efficient service through a local, San Diego region legal firm rather than utilizing the services of Jones Hall Hill and White in San Francisco as has been done in the past. Based on this request and with City/Agency concurrence, a request for proposals was solicited to known bond counsel firms throughout the State. Jones Hall Hill and White offered the most favorable proposal due to requiring fees for consultation in issues that are not consummated. The Community Development Director recommended the City enter into an agreement with the law firm of Jones Hall Hill and White based upon a comparison of fees and availability of personnel. The contract may be cancelled by either party with 30 days' notice. MSUC (Cox/Scott) to continue this item for two weeks. Mayor Cox commented that it was continued for two weeks as there is the possibility of some San Diego firms not having had an opportunity to bid. 11. RESOLUTION 2113 APPROVING A MINORITY BUSINESS ENTERPRISE/WOMEN BUSINESS ENTERPRISE SECTION 3 PLAN FOR COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT FUNDED PROJECTS (CommUnity Development Director The U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) requires cities that receive Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds to take affirmative steps to assure that local, minority and women-owned businesses are utilized, whenever possible, for procurement activities, including construction contracting. During a recent compliance review by a representative from HUD'S Region IX Office of Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity (FH&EO), the City was found to be in nonconformance with the HUD requirement stated above. The HUD-recommended method of complying with this requirement is by developing a Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) Women Business Enterprise (WBE)/Section 3 (small and local business) Plan, which describes the steps the City and contractors will take to utilize these types of businesses. City Council Minutes - 10 - July 23, 1985 Based on the results of polling, staff recommended the City adopt MBE/WBE goals of 15% and 1% respectively. MS (McCandliss/Malcolm) to continue this item for two weeks (for more information to be brought back to Council). Councilwoman McCandliss commented she would like additional information on agencies which have these standards and how the percentages are broken down into the two different categories. She requested information regarding the County's 15% overall broken down into two different components; San Diego City staff accomplishment; MTDB goals and what their achievement is. Mayor Cox expressed concern with setting quotas. Councilman Scott concurred with Mayor Cox stating the City has been fortunate in the tremendous job of hiring people on their ability and he felt no quotas are needed and would like to see a more general statement policy. The motion carried with Councilman Scott voting "no". 16. RESOLUTION 12114 APPROVING AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA AND WILLIAM HARSHMAN, SEWERAGE CONSULTANT, FOR THE PERFORMANCE OF PROFESSIONAL SERVICES, AND AUTHORIZING THE MAYOR TO EXECUTE SAID AGREEMENT (Director of Public Works/City Engineer) The 1985-86 Sewer Service budget provides for professional services relative to (primarily) interagency sewerage negotiations and agreements. This authorization reiterates and fiscally implements that budget provision. Staff has proposed that Mr. William Harshman be retained to perform such professional services because of his detailed knowledge and extensive experience in local interagency sewerage relationships. Councilman Moore discussed the way the policy is written and that he did not think the City should have any contract for "general" tasks but for "specific" tasks only stating he could not support this policy as written. Councilman Scott commented on his disapproval of the City policy of employees retiring and then being hired back as consultants stating he did not think this is cost-effective. He objected to paying retirement and consultant fees for the same individual. However, he stated he has great respect for Mr. Harshman's work and integrity. City Council Minutes - 11 - July 23, 1985 Mayor Cox spoke in support of the resolution stating the individual involved has developed most of the sewer systems in the City and hiring someone else would be more costly. The City will be contracting for other engineering services for EastLake and other projects in the City and is concerned that the plans be "turned around" in a reasonable amount of time. Councilwoman McCandliss declared the City needs a "tight control" with performance schedules. She noted the City would lose if going out on competitive bid due to the extraordinary ability and experience of the individual. However, she cautioned that the City should be prudent in hiring employees on a contractual basis. Councilman Malcolm indicated the City would have to spend twice as much to bring someone else in who would not have Mr. Harshman's knowledge of the sewer system. He stated that Council needs to be supportive of staff recommendations. City Manager Goss commented there is no established policy of asking people to come back (after retirement). He said the ability to come back and work for the City did not affect the employees decision for timing and perhaps the City encouraged the former employee to do it. He reminded Council this item was included in the budget and the general areas the City Metro sewer matters and working with the people involved in the eastern sector of the Sphere of Influence. Mr. Goss noted that Mr. Harshman is a "sole source" in reviewing the whole relationship with Metro sewers since the early 1960's. RESOLUTION OFFERED BY COUNCILMAN MALCOLM, the reading of the text was waived by unanimous consent, passed and approved with Councilman Moore voting "no". Councilman Moore commented that he did not vote against the individual but against the way the contract was written. MS (McCandliss/Cox) for staff to provide Council with a performance schedule as it is developed. The motion died for a lack of a second. 17. RESOLUTION 12115 AUTHORIZING THE CITY ENGINEER TO ENTER INTO CONTRACT WITH CIVIL ENGINEERING CONSULTANTS FOR REVIEW OF VARIOUS PLANS AND MAPS (Director of Public Works/City Engineer) In conjunction with the review and consideration by Council of the City's report on Land Development Processing, it was proposed that during overload periods, the review of plans and maps be accomplished by consultants. City Council Minutes - 12 - July 23, 1985 Through a combination of personnel loss and submittal of plans and maps for several large projects along with an otherwise normal workload, it has become apparent that an overload situation is at hand. Staff, therefore, proposed that the City enter into an agreement with a consultant to accommodate the expeditious review of the materials currently submitted. The Director of Public Works/City Engineer recommended Council approve an agreement with Carter Associates, Inc. for the review of plans and maps for land development projects. RESOLUTION OFFERED BY MAYOR COX, the reading of the text was waived by unanimous consent, passed and approved unanimously. 19. ORDINANCE 2122 AMENDING CHAPTER 8.20 OF THE MUNICIPAL CODE BY ADDING A NEW SECTION 8.20.025 REGULATING VENDING VEHICLES NEAR ELEMENTARY SCHOOL FACILITIES - First Reading (Assistant City Attorney) At its meeting of July 16, 1985, the City Council referred Ordinance 2122 to the City Attorney's office for revisions of the proposed language prior to its adoption. The Council requested that the proposed language be amended to limit the prohibition to elementary schools. In addition, the Council generally discussed whether or not the proposed ordinance (as amended) would apply to public and private schools. The Council requested the City Attorney's office provide a report relating to this matter and to contact the Sweetwater Union High School District regarding the "designation" of spaces for the use of vending vehicles. This ordinance would prohibit vending vehicles from stopping or parking within 500 feet of any elementary school property between 7:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. on regular days. The ordinance limits its application to public streets. A vending vehicle operating with the consent of the owner on private property would not be prohibited from selling its merchandise pursuant to Ordinance 2122. City Attorney Harron noted a response was received from the High School District stating they would appreciate the same treatment as the elementary school district. MSUC (Cox/Malcolm) to place the ordinance on first reading, the reading of the text was waived by unanimous consent passed and approved unanimously. MSUC (Scott/Cox) to bring back a similar ordinance at a later meeting for the High School District. City Council Minutes - 13 July 23, 1985 Mayor Cox pointed out the number one concern and priority of Council is traffic safety. The Elementary or High School District, irrespective of this ordinance, has the ability to invite vending machines on their property if they want to give them a parking space off the public streets to sell ice cream. The ordinance being approved deals with traffic safety. 24. REPORT OF THE CITY MANAGER a.
