PUBLIC HEARINGS AND RELATED RESOLUTIONS AND ORDINANCES
4. PUBLIC HEARING DISPOSITION OF SURPLUS COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK
CONTINUED GRANT FUNDS (Continued from the meeting of January 3,
1984) (Community Development Director)
This being the time and place as advertised, Mayor Cox opened the public
hearings.
Housing Coordinator Gustafson reported that on January 3, Council conducted a
- public hearing on the disposition of surplus Community Development Block Grant
funds for the purpose of considering funding those agencies which were
unfunded during the first review in mid-1983. Two proposals for social
service projects and a joint capital improvement project with the County of
San Diego were presented for Council's consideration. The Council approved
the capital improvement project, but continued the public hearing to this date
so staff could make all current recipients of social service funding under the
Block Grant Program aware of the availability of surplus funds. Council
further asked that any proposals for additional funds which might result be
compared to the two proposal s considered at the first public hearing.
Mr. Gustafson stated three new proposals for additional funding were received
and all proposers for funding were compared on a matrix. The selection
rationale used was the money should create diversity of social service
applications. In making the decisions, staff looked at those programs which
would increase clientele served. Four out of the five proposals did that with
their funding benefits carrying over in future years.
The Community Development Director recommended Council funding the following
programs:
a. Kinesis South ~ 6,500
b. Meals-On-Wheels $ 792
c. Hallelujah Corporation $17,208
CITY COUNCIL MEETING - 3 - January 24, 1984
Niki Lunn, 1373 Gertrude Street, San Diego, CA 92110, representing Mental
Heal th Systems, Inc. explained the operation of the business,
{Thanks-A-Bunch}, which is in its third year and a most crucial time for
expansion. They cannot expand unless there is some help in major funding,
such as for a van for flower deliveries and refrigerator for flowers. Miss
Lunn added this is a one-time-only request.
Agnes Dumitrescu, 5427 Robinwood Rd, Donira, CA 92002, the mother of a former
client of Kinesis spoke in support of the funding request.
Ernie Stewart, 6955 "C" Parkside, San Diego, CA 92139, Consultant and Director
for South County Council on Aging - Shared Housing, stated he donotes lO hours
monthly on the program and indicated a copy machine and typewriter were
critical to the success of the program. They are presently only accomplishing
25% of the program goal since January 1, 1983. With these two additional
pieces of equipmenty4,000 clients {10%} more could be reached. Their County
Grant is effective until February l, 1984 and they are asking the State for
additional $10,000.
Margaret Helton, 162 Mankato Street, Chula Vista, stated she is in favor of
what the city is doing but against the process because of the short time
available to submit requests. She contacted Director of Parks and Recreation
Pfister by letter on January 10, 1984 and would have liked to make a request
for the Senior Citizen's Program but the time element made it impossible to
approach the Council with a request.
Cheryl Foster, 4728 Iroquois, No. "J", San Diego, CA 92117, representing
Hallelujah Corporation acknowledged Councilman Moore's statement of the last
meeting of how difficult it was to make decisions by judging the merits of
each program in terms of one being more important than another. As a business
person, she stated Hallelujah Corporation will match Chula Vista money with
Federal money. Students they work with are people whoseincomes are derived from
Sbcial Security The avepage person receives apppDxtmately 5462 monthly or
55,568 a year. 'The savings in Social Security for a person to work would
eliminate paying tax doll ars from Chula Vista and making this person a
taxpayer - each $1 returns $11.
Council discussion ensued with Councilwoman McCandliss questioning the Federal
Grant of $109,000, the three different programs being offered and the one
being offered in Chula Vista. Miss Foster stated the Chula Vista program will
have two components, one in downtown San Diego and one in the East County.
One-half of the program will be on training and one-half on employer
awareness, {curriculum planning}. All three programs are tied together in the
Federal Grant.
Tris Hubbard, 190 East "I" Street, Chula Vista, 92010, Director of Special
Services, Sweetwater High School District, stated his District is extremely
interested and places high priority on handicapped placement programs.
CITY COUNCIL MEETING - 4 - January 24, 1984
In answer to Councilman Moore's query, Mr. Hubbard stated he has recommended
students to the program on a limited basis (mainly because the program was in
East County and the students did not have transportation).
A1 Filipponi, 1414 Monument Hill Road, E1 Cajon, 92020, Hallelujah
Corporation, stated they received a Federal grant and Chula Vista money would
be matched with the Federal money. Students from Chula Vista will be trained
with lO-20Sweetwater students involved in the first year. These people are
handicapped and will be placed in jobs in the Chula Vista area.
There being no further comments, either for or against, the public hearing was
declared closed.
Councilman Malcolm stated not much is being done for the youth of our
community; peer pressure among youngsters is great. He would like to see some
type of funding go to South Bay Community Services and stated our youth are
important. There is a tremendous influx of youngsters with problems and it is
the City's responsibility to meet that need.
MSC (Scott/McCandliss) to accept the staff recommendation. Councilman Malcolm
voted "no".
Council discussion ensued regarding the amount of funds being available as
$25,832; no local option funds for social service programs are available for ·
the current year; the fact the programs selected are "one-time-only" requests
and community enhancement is offered; possibility of relocating Greg Rogers
House to develop a Community Center for youth and using Block Grant funds to
move it - possibility of utilizing next year's Block Grant funds for
preservation and restoration of historical sites; monies to be allocated in
next year's budget for future projects.

13. RESOLUTION 11517 APPROPRIATING FUNDS FOR THE PREPARATION OF
ENVIRONMENTAL DOCUMENTS FOR THE OTAY VALLEY ROAD
REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT (Director of Planning)
Councilman Scott abstained from voting due to a possible conflict of interest
and left the dais at this time.
In December 1983, Council directed staff to proceed with various General Plan
amendments and prezoni ng within the Otay Valley Road Redevelopment Area. The
area to the south of Otay Valley Road involves environmental resources which
could be impacted by development, therefore, an EIR is necessary prior to
consideration of any General Plan amendment or prezoning.
Larry McKenna, 1347 Mt View Lane, Chula Vista, spoke on behalf of the
Citizen's Action Network. He questioned expenditure of public funds for the
EIR report stating private landowners should pay the cost of the report.
Mr. McKenna expressed his concern regarding the selection of Planning Research
Corporation.
Planning Director Gray explained the reason for securing the contract with
PRC. A rezoning was filed for a portion of the area south of the road and
another portion north of Otay Valley Road near Brandywine in 1980. The
property owner who submitted the application was requi red to pay for the cost
of preparation of the draft EIR. During the preparation of the EIR, there was
another request from landowners which caused the contract with PRC to be
expanded to cover expansion of Otay Valley Road. Since that contract was
expanded and work was never completed, the City proposed to "piggy back" on
the contract. Much of the base work is being completed by property owners who
wished it to be done at that time. A porti on of the contract was completed
in 1980 and a portion of the rezoning did occur at that time. Other property
owners dropped out but the other half of the contract was still unfinished.
Council conmnents continued: Mayor Cox stated the "offensive" developments were
there prior to annexation; the City of Chula Vista will now be responsible for
future developments; PRC is a qualified firm to deal with the EIR; the only
way to insure no further dumps is to rezone the property; difference between a
full and a single EIR; property owners will be paying for the EIR through the
tax increments.
RESOLUTION OFFERED BY COUNCILMAN MALCOLM, the reading of the text was waived
by unanimous consent. Councilman Scott abstained from voting.

Engineer)
14c. RESOLUTION 11520 MAKING PRELIMINARY DETERMINATION THAT THE PUBLIC
CONVENIENCE AND NECESSITY REQUIRE CERTAIN
IMPROVEMENTS IN A SPECIAL ASSESSMENT DISTRICT AND
SETTING THE TIME AND PLACE FOR PUBLIC HEARING (City
Engineer)
City Engineer Lippitt stated over the past several years, engineering staff
has been working with the property owners in the area of Las Flores Drive
between Second and Minot Avenues and north of "E" Street to construct public
improvements through special assessment district proceedings. In order to
start the process for the formation of the district, the first step is to
follow the proceeding of the "Special Assessment, Investigation, Limitation
and Majority Protest Act of lg31." The Council, on August 2, 1983, by
Resolution 11333, adopted a procedure for satisfying the requirements of the
1931 Act. It is now appropriate to take several Council actions to implement
these proceedings.
Councilman Malcolm questioned selecting the Star News for circulation and

bid.

SEMINAR" (Safety Commission Chairman Joy Sheresh)

seminar on March 1 O, 1984 and for an appropriation for $170 { two regi strations
@ $85.00 each). Also requested was the use of a City pool car to transport
the two members to the seminar.
Council discussion ensued regarding offering the opportunity to all Commission
members. The City Clerk/City Attorney are composing an updated manual for
Committee/Commission members and a one-half or one day seminar to present this
locally. This would be more cost-effective and perhaps an appropriate
speaker could be invited to speak to all Committee/Commission members.
Chairman Sheresh stated a few years ago she attended a one-hal f day workshop
in Coronado and found it was not very worthwhile. Also, she had not received
any communication that an in-house program was going to be presented.
City Clerk Fulasz said she is currently working on plans for the workshop and
the tentative date for the presentation will be February 22. The following
topics will be covered in the workshop: preparation of Council Agendas;
Commission minutes; presentations to the Council; how to conduct efficient
meetings; use of staff time; general review of objectives of Board and
Commission policies.
City Manager Goss suggested the Regional Training Center could provide a
speaker and thus eliminate our Board/Commission members going out of town to
receive training.
MSUC (Moore/Scott) to have staff or City Clerk pursue having expert input and
to check the cost and availability and make that part of the workshop.
Mayor Cox suggested, since he serves as part of an advisory group of San Diego
State University, Department of Public Administration - working with the City
and developing communications - that may be another resource.
MSUC (Malcolm/Moore) to file Item No. 16.
