Minutes - 6 - September 19, 1989
d. James Lovett, Bayscene Mobilehome Park, 100 Woodlawn #75, Chula Vista/~y~
noted that the City Attorney had addressed his one concern from last
week's meeting dealing with the park owners pressuring residents to sign
long term leases. The other issue, park owners raising the rent upon
sale of the mobilehome, was not yet resolved. He requested that the
City Attorney send a letter to the park owner advising him of the City's
ordinance as it relates to sale of coaches and requesting the mobilehome
owner's policy upon the sale of coaches.
Councilman Malcolm noted that the Mobilhome Issues Committee voted to
not include that in the ordinance (to raise the rent above the cost of
living when someone moved out). Santa Barbara recently went to court on
this issue and lost the case.
Housing Coordinator Thompson explained that there are some factual
differences between the City's ordinance and that of Santa Barbara so
the City could take a more aggressive stance. The differences are that
Santa Barbara has an absolute cap of 10% upon turnover and the City has
no absolute cap.
MSC (Malcolm/Nader) for a report back from the City Attorney as to potential
issues of the City's ordinance and legalities (Mayor Cox absent).

Mr. Rick Johnson, Pastor, Risen Savior Lutheran Church, 391 Bay Leaf, Chula
Vista, requested Council to waive the fees for building a Church at the east
corner of Naples Court and Medical Center Drive. According to staff, they are
liable for nearly $100,000 an acre in Development Impact Fees. He noted Risen
Savior is not encouraging growth but responding to growth, and urged Council
to refer this back to staff.
MSC (Malcolm/Moore) to refer to staff.
Council discussion followed with Council noting this should be referred to
look at the impact of the fees to see if the fee is too large and if there
should be a fee at all and what kind of impact it would have on the system;
fees are not based on where people live but on traffic count, acreage, etc.;
where is the money coming; where would the fees need to be increased; there
has been a precedent set regarding fees; general policy has been to waive
church fees in the past; need for a report on which fees should be raised; how
is DIF computed for churches; is there a category for churches in DIF
ordinance and how do we classify it.
Minutes - 7 - September 19, 1989
Bud et Officer Byers responded that fees were based on commercial zoning and
staff has learned that this area is the fees are
not
commercially zoned; based
on the underlying zoning of the land as far as residential,
commercial-industrial; the consul tant will be looking at the overall fee to
see what the actual impact is.
Director of Planning Kremple noted council has appointed a Church Task Force
on the zoning issue; they will be providing Council with input on church
standards and regulations.
AMENDMENT TO MOTION
(Nader/Malcolm) staff to come back with an amendment to the DIF ordinance that
will provide a partial or full exemption for church and public services
related uses regardless of zoning and that the matter be referred to the
Church Task Force.
Councilman Moore voiced his objection to the motion, noting that this is
directing staff to reduce/eliminate the fee and Council does not know who will
pay the difference; something has to be done in figuring out acreage, zoning
and the fair share.
CLARIFICATION OF MOTION
Mayor Pro Tempore Nader clarified the motion noting this is to have staff come
back with a proposed amendment to the ordinance which, if adopted, would
partially exempt churches and other public service uses and Councilman Moore's
concerns would be addressed in the staff report.
City Manager Goss stated that staff could meet with representatives from the
church and could come back with a report next week; it will take a longer time
for staff and the Church Task Force to meet and come up with a policy referral.

PROJECT), SERIES 1985
Minutes - 8 - September 19, 1989
In 1985 the City of Chula Vista issued variable rate revenue bonds in the
amount of $4,400,000 in support of the construction of a Home Depot store in
the Tetra Nova shopping center. Section 6.18 of the Loan Agreement for this
bond issue requires the consent of the issuer, the trustee and the guarantor
in connection with the sale or other disposition of the project. Home Depot
intends to effect a corporate reorganization which would transfer assets to a
holding company structure. Pursuant to the Loan Agreement requirements, the
company is asking the City, as issuer of the bonds, to consent to the proposed
transfer. (Acting Community Development Director)
Councilman Malcolm questioned why the City is signing the tax exempt financing
in amount of $4.4 million dollars with no fees charged. The private sector
get fees and the City should use this opportunity to get additional funds for
the City. He asked why we are not charging 1/2 of 1 point like any other
institution would.
Director of Finance Christopher responded that in the spirit of cooperation
because the bonds were originally issued to entice Home Depot to come into the
City, and there was a sales tax guarantee from Home Depot which was
substantially exceeded, staff felt there was no risk being taken on.
MOTION
ltiil~'61m/Nader) to amend the resolution to charge one-half of one percent fee.
In response to Council's concerns, City Manager Goss noted that Home e ~
not planning to move out of the City, they are looking for a site for g
store in Chula Vista and the Home Deport in the Tetra Nova Center will stay
there.
Mayor Pro Tempore Nader asked Mr. Christopher if the agreement providing a
revenue that must be provided even if the store would close down.
Director Christopher responded that to his knowledge it does not, but it is
for certain number of years and if the store closed or moved out of the City
before that time, they would have to come up with that guaranteed amount.
RESOLUTION AS AMENDED, OFFERED BY MAYOR PRO TEMPORE NADER, the reading of the

include for future consideration, alternatives for the future location of a
pool.
MOTION
'('F)~'dTF/McCandliss ) to approve the report with the addition of a referral on
the question of alternative locations for a pool.
Councilman Moore noted his concern that staff needs to provide low-cost
sketches of locations. This would give Council a chance to list the pros and
cons and rationale for why it should be there. He questioned locations for a
pool, noting that it would not be feasible to locate a pool near a residential
area. He encouraged staff to include sketches early in the stages of these
plans.
Minutes - 10 - September 19, 1989
VOTE ON MOTION
The motion passed with Councilman Malcolm abstaining (Mayor Cox absent).
Councilwoman McCandliss noted there should probably be a workshop looking for
an alternative site.

which was not addressed in the staff recommendation.

responded that the SDG&E right-of-way was not included as the overall park
site. The right-of-way would be used as part of the Hermosa/Orange Park site.

(Moore/McCandliss) when staff returns with open space zoning ordinance, they
include areas they recommend would be under that open space ordinance in the
beginning and list this area from Orange Avenue to Broadway between the

Councilwoman McCandliss clarified: that the right-of-way as stated in the
staff report be eliminated from this park; and it be included in the list of
sites for the open space overlay.
Mr. Tony Castro, Montgomery Planning Committee, noted he had no problem with
this.
VOTE ON MOTION
The motion carried 3-O-1-1 with Councilman Malcolm abstaining and Mayor Cox
absent.
City Manager Goss restated for staff's clarification: that the main intent
was to give direction so that a Master Plan could be developed, that an
intermediate step to formulate that Master Plan could be addressed in more
detail.

districts are interested in sitting in on that meeting and asked if
Council would rather meet with all three of them or separately.
Councilman Moore stated that he wants to meet individually because he
can see each entity having a different concern. Council concurred that
they would rather have the joint meetings as set and meet separately to
discuss the Growth Management issues.

Sewer Task Force in San Diego, City Manager Goss urged Council to attend
