George Hartman, 1034 Paseo Entrada, Chula Vista, representing a
concerned community group, stated he was speaking on behalf of a
group in the audience and "for the kids" in that area. Two years
ago when Mr. Hartman moved to his home, there was little traffic
in this residential neighborhood and now trucks move up and down
the street, causing much concern on his part for the safety of the
children at play. Mr. Hartman requested an access road for the
trucks around the residential area.
MSUC (McCandliss/Nader) to refer to staff (1) the question of
rerouting construction traffic and (2) to look at the long term
growth scheduling to open up the area to more than just current
access; and to come back with possible solutions showing current
improvement schedules and plans; and to report back on January 5.
ADDITION TO THE MOTION: Councilman Nader, with the agreement of
the maker of the motion, included in the motion a direction to
staff to include a summary of regulations relative to the movement
of heavy equipment in residential areas.
Council discussed their concerns relative to the destruction of
residential streets and the possible dangers to the residents.
Staff advised Council that the problem of diverting traffic, other
than construction traffic, gets into the area of rights of way,
dedication and making acceptable improvements.
Carlos Chacon, 1173 Paseo Sarina, 92010 representing himself and
his neighbors addressed the same issues and in addition, the
ability of trucks to safely stop on an unfamiliar grade, relating
his own difficulty to stop on the grades of the road in the area,
although familiar with it. Mr. Chacon also suggested Council
research alternative routes for the trucks.
Bethany Jenkins, 1128 del Rio Court, 92010 (9 years old) requested
Council to not allow constructon on East "J" Street before the
completion of a road and explained how small neighborhood children
ride bikes in the area and expressed her desire for a safe
neighborhood. Mayor Cox complimented Ms. Jenkins on her community
involvement.
Tom Latsko, representing the Concerned Community Group, addressed
the noise issue; and residents, Stanford Rich and Ronald King,

Papers were presented to the City Clerk for the record, to restate
the points as stated.
Councilmembers considered the request and examined all facets of
the issue, as well as the remaining balance of $12,000 owed to the
City for the cost of staff time for a lengthy and unsuccesful
process of the subdivision map.
MSUC {McCandliss/Nader) to deny the waiver of fees and to send a
bill for the balance of fees due for the last processing to clear
the books and that future fees will be dealt with in the future.
3f. REQUEST FOR WAIVER OF SIDEWALK INSTALLATION AT 403 QUEEN ANNE
DRIVE David S. Meacham, 403 Queen Ann Drive, Chula Vista
92011
Leanne Duckham, of Chula Vista, appeared for David Meachem, who
made the subject request. Mr. Meachem would like to add a bedroom
to his older home but the permit was denied because of the
necessity to pay for sidewalks, and his inability to provide these
funds. Ms. Duckham noted that there are presently no sidewalks in
this area and questioned the reason for this stipulation.
Mayor Cox explained Staff's position for denial and further
explained that the lien on the property, as suggested by staff as
an alternative, would not incur an expenditure at this time and
that the lien would follow the property if sold; and further
explained the "lgll Block Act" and how it possibly could apply to
this area.
Councilman Moore suggested that staff put the City's policy in
print for reference by every citizen who inquires.
MSUC {Cox/McCandliss) to approve staff recommendation for referral
for resolution and report back to Council.

THE MODIFICATION OF EAST "H" STREET
CENTERLINE MEDIAN AT AUBURN AVENUE PROJECT
On September 8, 1987, the City Council awarded a contract for
modification of the East "H" Street centerline median at Auburn
Avenue to 0 & B Matthews Construction Inc. The contractor had 35
working days to complete the project but, due to rain and
unexpected difficulty in removing the stamped concrete in the
median, the contractor will be unable to complete the project
within the specified period and has requested a contract time
extension.
Minutes ' ii' December 8, 1987
Councilwoman McCandliss asked for the reason of the "unexpected
difficulty", which was explained by staff as the stamped concrete
had to be saw-cut, which task required more time.
RESOLUTION OFFERED BY MAYOR COX, the reading of the text was
waived by unanimous consent, passed and approved unanimously.
13a ORDINANCE 2243 AMENDING CHAPTER 17.10 OF THE CHULA VISTA
MUNICIPAL CODE RELATING TO NEIGHBORHOOD
PARK AND COMMUNITY PARK REQUIREMENTS
b RESOLUTION 13377 AMENDING THE MASTER FEE SCHEDULE RELATING
TO PARKLAND ACQUISITION FEES AND PARKLAND
DEVELOPMENT FEES AND PARKLAND DEVELOPMENT
FEES FOR NEIGHBORHOOD PARK AND COMMUNITY
PARK FACILITIES
Staff recommended that Council place the revisions to the
ordinance on its first reading; adopt the resolution to take
effect 60 days after the second reading of the ordinance
revisions; and direct staff to develop park fees for industrial
and commercial developments for Council consideration. An
increase in the amount of PAD fees would be seen if the proposed
increases are approved. More RCT funds would be freed to fund
other capital improvement projects since more PAD fees would be
collected and less RCT would be waived for developers.
Director of Parks and Recreation Mollinedo presented a visual
explaining the increase in the number of elements, pointing out
the present requirements as well as the proposed requirements
which would be more relevant to present day standards, versus the
older standards which did not normally provide the necessary
amenities of a park.
City Manager Goss highlighted for Councilmembers that he is
comfortable with all standards as presented; but the standard of a
community center for every 24,000 people and a pool for every
20,000 people might be too stringent, and a community center for
every for every 24 to 30,000, and one swim center for every 30,000
might be more approachable.
Robert Santos, 900 Lane Avenue, Chula Vista, representing EastLake
Development, stated support of the recommendation by staff. Mr.
Santos referred to the private park element and presented
suggested wording to be inserted in the document, with the desire
to reserve flexibility to accept private parklands.
Staff discussed the insertion into the ordinance and City Manager
suggested rewording the first line to read, "planned development
may" to "planned development shall"
Minutes - 12 - December 8, 1987
Ken Baumgartner, 2727 Hoover Avenue, National City, McMillin
Development, spoke in favor of the ordinance, but commented on the
consistent costs in the report and encouraged adoption to provide
parity between the builders who provide parks and those who do
not. Mr. Baumgartner requested a clear direction for application
of credit.
Kim John Kilkenny, 6336 Greenwich Drive, San Diego, stated the
general support of the Construction Industry Federation for the
ordinance and the staff analysis, but disagreed with the fee
increase portion which, in his opinion, conflict with the Map Act.
After discussion of this point by Councilmembers and after
receiving advice of the City Attorney, Mayor Cox stated that the
City's fees are correct and include those for neighborhood park
development, community park development and park acquisition fees.
ORDINANCE OFFERED BY MAYOR COX, the reading of the text was waived
by unanimous consent.
MS (Cox/Moore) to amend the Ordinance, page 4, "Q", to read, "One
50 meter swimming pool with related facilities, such as dressing
rooms, will be constructed for every 30,000 people," as opposed to
20,000 people. (Motion failed. Councilmembers Nader and
McCandliss voted no)
MSUC (Moore/McCandliss) to add to page 4, "T" to read, "A restroom
facility shall be constructed in every community park," the
phrase, "and may be constructed in a neighborhood park."
Councilmembers discussed the change as suggested by Mr. Santos, as
compared to the language in the Subdivision Map Act, which was
read to Councilmembers by the City Attorney, who suggested
inserting the exact language into the ordinance.
MSUC (Moore/McCandliss) referencing page 6, 17.10.100 Collection
and distribution of fees, as stated be entitled paragragh "a", and
that paragraph "b" be added and reflected in the ordinance to
include Mr. Santos' recommendation as modified to state "may" vs.
"shall" and that the "shall" be determined on a case by case basis.
Councilman Moore addressed the direction requested by Mr.
Baumgartner, and staff explained that horse and hiking trails
usually come under "open space" elements rather than parks, and
that public dedicated lands do not quality. Credit applies to
private open space, retained by the developer, but which is
available for active open space uses.
Hal Cooper, 782 Melrose Avenue, appeared on behalf of the youths
who play softball and soccer and stated their concern on the type
of parks planned, and explained the shortage of parks in the
community with playing fields for softball and soccer games. Mr.
Cooper stated the need has long been neglected and the numbers of
boys and girls playing the games are increasing.
Ninutes -13 December 8, 1987
