This study will be a joint effort by Chula Vista, the City of National City, the County of San Diego, and CalTrans and will be done through a traffic and transportation consultant.

ORDINANCE ADDING SECTION 10.52.096 TO THE CHULA VISTA MUNICIPAL CODE RELATING TO THE PARKING OF HEAVY DUTY COMMERCIAL OR OTHER VEHICLES IN RESIDENTIAL DISTRICTS - FIRST READING (Continued from meeting of January 20, 1987) (Director of Public Works/City Engineer) Pulled from Consent Calendar. 10. REPORT POTENTIAL LEGISLATION RELATING TO FIRE FIGHTER CANCER PRESUMPTION (Deputy City Manager) Pulled from Consent Calendar. 11. REPORT PCM -98-12: CONSIDERATION OF PROPOSAL TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF RACING PIGEONS WHICH CAN BE KEPT ON SINGLE FAMILY LOTS (Planning Director) Last year, the Council responded to a citizen request by directing staff to investigate the possibility of increasing the number of racing pigeons which can be kept on single family lots within the City. The request was for Council to consider the adoption of provisions similar to those in place in other jurisdictions within the region which allow up to 125 racing pigeons on a single lot. Minutes 5 January 27, 1987 In the Director of Planning's summary, he notes few complaints have been filed which indicates that odors, noise and droppings can be a problem in cases involving fewer than 100 birds. The potential nuisance related to exercise flights could not be addressed with an increase in lot size or setback standards, and notice for those that may be affected thereby would not occur via a conditional use permit procedure. Since there does not appear to be any compelling reasons to modify the existing animal regulations, staff recommended no action be taken on the request. END OF CONSENT CALENDAR PUBLIC HEARINGS AND RELATED RESOLUTIONS AND ORDINANCES 12. PUBLIC HEARING CONSIDERATION OF REQUEST FOR WAIVER OF UNDERGROUNDING A PORTION OF OVERHEAD TRANSMISSION LINES THROUGH THE PROPERTY AT 345 "K" STREET (Director of Public Works/City Engineer) RESOLUTION 12890 APPROVING THE DEFERRAL OF THE UNDERGROUNDING REQUIREMENT FOR ONE POWER POLE AND A MINOR LENGTH OF OVERHEAD WIRES AT 345 "K" STREET AND APPROVING THE AGREEMENT ~ITH A. VASSILIADIS TO NOT PROTEST THE FORMATION OF AN UNDERGROUND DISTRICT This being the time and place as advertised, Mayor Cox declared the public hearing open. Director of Public Works/City Engineer explained the applicant suDmitted plans to develop the property at 345 "Kw Street for a building permit to construct an apartment complex. In accordance with the City Code, the owner is required to convert the existing overhead transmission wires within the limits of the .subject property to underground. The owner has applied for a waiver of the undergrounding requirements stating that the adjacent neighbors to the west refused to allow San Diego Gas and Electric to set a power pole on their side of the property line. Both properties are now served by one pole within the proponent's property. No utility easement is available in the adjacent property and therefore, this prevented the owner from completing 100% of the undergrounding. Staff's recommendation was for Council to grant a deferral rather than a waiver, and for the applicant (owner) to enter into an agreement with the City wherein he agrees to waive the right to protest the formation of any future undergrounding district and to participate in the district in the event such formation occurs. Minutes 6 January 27, 1987 There being no public testimony either for or against, the hearing was closed. RESOLUTION OFFERED BY COUNCILMAN MOORE, the reading of the text was waived by unanimous consent, passed and approved unanimously. '13. PUBLIC HEARING CONSIDERATION OF THE ANNEXATION OF APPROXIMATELY 111 ACRES LOCATED AT THE EASTERLY TERMINUS OF EAST NAPLES STREET , KNOWN AS THE "TELEGRAPH CANYON SOUTH REORGANIZATION" (Director of Planning) RESOLUTION 12891 APPROVING THE PROPOSED "TELEGRAPH CANYON SOUTH REORGANIZATION" Councilman Malcolm stated that he has a possible conflict of interest and will be abstaining from discussion and voting on this issue. The FPPC has ruled that he "probably" can participate; however, City Attorney Harron has recommended that until a final opinion is received, he not participate in the discussion. Councilman Malcolm left. the dais at this time. This being the time and place as advertised, Mayor Cox declared the public hearing open. Director of Planning Krempl referred to his report to the Council in which he explained an application was filed by the Rancho del Sur Corporation with the Local Agency Formation Commission in September 1986 for the detachment of approximately 111 acres from the unincorporated area of the County and its subsequent annexation to the City of Chula Vista. The subject territory is a triangularly-shaped County island located at the easterly terminus of East Naples and bordered by Telegraph Canyon Road to the north and the current City boundaries to the south. The proposed reorganization is within the adopted Sphere-of-Influence of the City of Chula Vista. An Initial Study IS-87-19 of the possible adverse environmental impacts of the project was conducted as part of the prezoning by the Environmental Review Coordinator on October 24, 1986, who concluded that there would be no significant environmental effects. The Council adopted the Negative Declaration on December 2, 1986. On January 5, 1987, the Local Agency Formation Commission approved the proposed reorganization (Reference No. CA866) and referred the matter to the City for its action. The recommendation was for Council to approve the annexation. There being no public testimony either for or against, the public hearing was declared closed. Minutes 7 January 27, 1987 RESOLUTION OFFERED BY COUNCILWOMAN MCCANDLISS, the reading of the text was waived by unanimous consent, passed and approved with Councilman Malcolm abstaining. In response to Councilman Moore's question, Director of Finance Christopher explained that the City's share of the 1% property tax will be approximately 18%; on a city-wide average; however, there are some areas above and below that because of the different tax rates areas in the City. Councilman Malcolm returned to the dais at this time. 14. PUBLIC HEARING CONSIDERING THE REZONE OF A 37-ACRE AREA KNOWN AS THE LAS FLORES STUDY AREA (Director of Planning) ORDINANCE 2189 REZONING THAT AREA KNOWN AS THE LAS FLORES ZONING STUDY AREA FROM AN R-2 TO AN R-2-P ZONE - FIRST READING This being the time and place as .advertised, Mayor Cox declared the public hearing open. Director of Planning Krempl stated in his written report to the Council that on November 18, 1986, Council considered the Las Flores Zoning Study for a 37-acre area surrounding Minor Avenue and Las Flores Drive and unanimously voted to retain the R-2 zone and to attach the P precise plan modifier to require each development proposal to be reviewed and approved by the Design Review Committee. It is staff's intention to defer the installation of specific development guidelines for the area for a period of 4 to 6 months. The development guidelines will include treatment of bulk and scale in duplex developments, private open space and provision for adequate on-site parking to alleviate the potential for overcrowded on-street parking which could occur as development continues. There being no public testimony either for or against, the hearing was closed. MSUC (McCandliss/Moore) to place the ordinance on first reading, the reading of the text was waived by unanimous consent, passed and approved unanimously. 15. ORAL COMMUNICATIONS a. Nadine Patterson, 434 "F" Street, #219, Chula Vista 92010, reiterated her request for Dial-a-Ride in the City of Chula Vista, especially for those people who are handicapped and senior citizens. Minutes - 8 - January 27, 1987 Councilman Malcolm noted this item had been referred by Council to staff. City Manager Goss commented that the Traffic Coordinator, Mr. Gustafson, will be presenting a report to the Council prior to budget time. pULLED ITEMS d. PROPOSAL FROM BUSTOP SHELTERS OF CA, INC. FOR FREE PILOT PROGRAM FOR THE CITY - (Continued from meeting of January 20, 1987 ) Jean Claude LeRoyer, President, 18007 Sky Park Circle, Suite D2, Irvine, CA 92714 This was a continuance of the letter from Bustop Shelters of California, Inc. from the meeting of January 20. This request is similar to one presented approximately a year ago through MTDB which was turned down by the City Council. Based on past Council action, the City Manager recommended that the City decline to participate in this advertising transit shelter program since it is perceived that these shelters would be incompatible with the City's efforts to reduce advertising in the public right-of-way. It was noted that the design of the shelters appears similar to the one earlier rejected by the Council, and that the basic intent of the shelters is for advertising, given the name of the company, which is "Metro Display Advertising, Inc., dba Bustop shelters of California." Mr. Robert Tyler, Vice President, Bustop Shelters of California, Inc., said his firm is offering the City a pilot program to install shelters throughout the City for a period of one year. The shelters would have a poster (6'x4') for advertising purposes. Mr. Tyler showed pictures of the shelters which he explained were "high tech" and cost $10,000 each. Mr. Tyler responded to Council's questions stating there will be no alcohol or tobacco ads advertised; if the Council does not like the program before the one year period of time, the company will remove the shelters; the location of the shelters is negotiable; Council can determine where the shelters should be placed. In answer to the Mayor ' s question, City Manager Goss stated there are presently six shelters in the City. Councilman Malcolm remarked that the shelters were of a nice design; however, he felt that putting them throughout the City would be "going in the wrong direction" since the Council is trying to improve the visual aesthetics throughout the City; therefore, he cannot support it. Minutes - 9 - January 27, 1987 Councilman Moore indicated the Council's position should be to respond to public needs. If there is a need for more bus stops, the Council should hear about this. He cannot, however, support this proposal. Councilwoman McCandliss stated she agreed, asking for a staff report as to the need for more shelters in the City. MSUC (Malcolm/McCandliss) to accept the staff recommendation to deny the request for the bus shelters. 5a. RESOLUTION 12892 APPROVING THE FINAL MAP FOR CHULA VISTA TRACT 86-2, EASTLAKE I CAMELOT UNIT 1, APPROVING SUBDIVISION IMPROVEMENT AGREEMENT FOR THE COMPLETION OF IMPROVEMENTS REQUIRED BY SAID SUBDIVISION, AND APPROVING SUPPLEMENTAL IMPROVEMENT AGREEMENT, AND AUTHORIZING THE MAYOR TO EXECUTE SAID AGREEMENTS (Director of Public Works/City Engineer) b. RESOLUTION 12893 ACCEPTING GRANT OF EASEMENT FROM MCKELLAR DEVELOPMENT OF LA JOLLA ~ITHIN EASTLAKE 1, UNIT 13 (Director of Public Works/City Engineer) The Final Map for CVT-86-2, EastLake I, Camelot Unit No. 1 has been reviewed by the Engineering Department and found to be in conformance with the Tentative Map approved by the City Council on November 26, 1985, by Resolution No. 12262. Approval of the Final Map will constitute the creation of 116 condominium units as well as acceptance of sewer easements within Camelot Unit No. 1. Councilman Nader discussed the fact that the Council is being asked to approve this final map; however, they do not have an updated General Plan to look at. He realizes that this is a final map and not a tentative one; however, Council should think about what stage they will want to "draw a line" on developments until the General Plan is updated. Mayor Cox noted that this map has gone through the tentative stages and all conditions have been met. ZastLake is now under the moratorium until all public improvements are put in; however, this particular development was approved prior to that moratorium. Councilwoman McCandliss referred to the meeting scheduled for Thursday on the General Plan update indicating it was critical that Council do everything possible now to get guidelines and the General Plan in place before approving any further developments. Minutes - 10 - January 27, 1987 RESOLUTIONS OFFERED BY COUNCILMAN NADER, the reading of the texts was waived by unanimous consent, passed and approved unanimously. 6. RESOLUTION APPROVING ENCROACHMENT PERMIT NO. PE-083 AT 117 EAST OXFORD STREET (Director of Public Works/City Engineer) The owners of the property at 117 East Oxford Street recently applied for an encroachment permit in order to bring into conformance a structure which is now existing. This structure is approximately 48'x15' and encroaches three feet into a 6 foot public utility easement at the rear of the property. The floor area within the above mentioned easement is approximately 144 square feet. The topography is such that a retaining wall was built as part of the rear wall in order to retain the soil after excavation was completed. Director of Public Works/City Engineer showed a slide of the particular property in question noting that the easement runs along the rear line of houses in that area. He recommended that the Council approve the request and authorize the City Engineer to issue the encroachment permit. Councilman Malcolm questioned why the recommendation to approve this particular encroachment permit and not those along the entire line, which may create some problems down the road. Director Lippitt explained that the applicant is requesting 3 feet into the 6 foot utility easement. That entire easement however, is not being used for utilities and never will be. Councilman Malcolm questioned vacating the entire easement because of no need for it. MSUC (Moore/Malcolm) to refer this back to staff for a review of the potential of vacating either all of that entire strip or what is logical and if the utility companies agree, come back to the City Council with more information. Director Lippitt responded to who will pay for the cost of the encroachment explaining that for a street vacation, it costs approximately ~1,100. An encroachment of this particular kind would be just the staff time. Councilman Nader asked that the Director put in the cost figures in the report to come back to the Council. 9~ ORDINANCE 2190 ADDING SECTION 10.52.096 TO THE CHULA VISTA MUNICIPAL CODE RELATING TO THE PARKING OF HEAVY DUTY COMMERCIAL OR OTHER VEHICLES IN RESIDENTIAL DISTRICTS FIRST READING (Continued from meeting of January 20, 1987) (Director of Public Works/City Engineer) Minutes 11 - January 27, 1987 Director of Public Works/City Engineer presented his report in which he stated that at its meeting of January 20, 1987, the City " Council considered an ordinance which would have restricted the parking of heavy duty commercial or other vehicles (i.e., recreational vehicles) in residential districts to 72 hours. It was staff's recommendation that the ordinance not be adopted. After discussion, Council continued the item to January 27, 1987, for a history of this item, background material and a clearer definition of commercial vehicles. Staff recommendation was for Council to adopt the proposed ordinance amending Section 10.52.090 of the Municipal Code and file the proposed ordinance before them on January 20, 1987, adding Section 10.52.096 of the Municipal Code, the impacts of which will beas follows: 1. Commercial vehicles will not be allowed to park in residential districts for more than 5 hours. Further, the definition of commercial vehicles will include vehicles which are used primarily for commercial purposes, are more than 12,000 pounds in weight, and will include but not be limited to such vehicles as dump trucks, moving vans, tractors, pole or pipe dollies. 2. Residential district shall be defined as any Olock in which over 50% of the ground-level buildings fronting on said block --. are dwellings. 3. Recreational vehicles or other vehicles not used primarily for commercial purposes will be allowed to park on City streets for 72 hours. However, the result of this provision (which is currently in the State Vehicle Code and the City Ordinance) will not prohibit RVS from parking on the streets; it will simply make them move the vehicles every 72 hours. Councilwoman McCandliss stated that what the Council is trying to accomplish in this ordinance is to accommodate the RV'S to load and unload on the street; however, they should not be allowed to park there indefinitely. As to the 72 hour limitation, she wants to be very sure that the Police Department has the powers they need to enforce this time limit. Councilman Malcolm questioned why this was not sent to the Safety Commission prior to coming to the Council in order for Council to get their input. Director Lippitt noted that the Safety Commission's review of the first ordinance and their decision not to consider the revised ordinance. Minutes 12 - January 27, 1987 Mr. Tom Davis, 1657 Gotham Street, Chula Vista 92010, testified he has been speaking on this issue for the past 2 years. Eighteen months ago the Safety Commission had a hearing to consider restricting the parking of large vehicles for 3 to 6 hours. They took action on that; however, later on he discovered that the Safety Commission noted it was a workshop and not a public meeting so that referral to staff was reviewed at a later date and brought up again. The public again was invited to testify. At that meeting the Safety Commission decided it was not a safety item and decided not to consider it. The 72 hour limitation is not being enforced by anyone because the Police do not have the staff to go out and check on it. The City Manager believes it is too complicated an issue. The RV's and the large vehicles are out there, they obscure the view and present a traffic safety problem. Mary Helvie, 301 Nocturne Court, Chula Vista 92011, stated she is a member of the RV Task Force which met and considered this particular ordinance. The ordinance first came to them in the middle of a community workshop. The Committee believes the 5 hour law is already on the books (parking of heavy duty commercial vehicles) and the 72 hour limitation for RV'S. They recommended it and asked that it be enforced on a complaint basis; three hours is not enough time to load and unload an RV; therefore, she feels that this ordinance is not necessary since it is "already on the books." MSUC (Moore/McCandliss) to place the ordinance on first reading the reading of the text was waived by unanimous consent, passed and approved unanimously. MSUC (McCandliss/Malcolm) to refer back to staff the question of the enforcement of the 72 hour limitation with a report to come back at budget time. 10. REPORT POTENTIAL LEGISLATION RELATING TO FIRE FIGHTER CANCER PRESUMPTION (Deputy City Manager) At its January 13, 1987 meeting, the Council approved a new City Council Legislative Policy and the 1987 Legislative Program. In so doing, Council deferred action on a Council legislative position related to firefighter cancer presumption until staff returned with additional information on this subject. Staff's recommendation was for Council to: (1) oppose any legislation which would remove the sunset date and/or shift, to the employer, the burden of proof related to firefighter cancer presumption and, (2) amend the 1987 Legislative Program to include opposition to firefighter cancer presumption legislation. Minutes - 13 January 27, 1987 John McLintock, Spring Valley, member of the Chula Vista Firefighters, discussed the law that went into effect in 1983 with the sunset clause of 1989 relating to the Firefighter Cancer presumption and AB 561 the Floyd Bill which would have made the legislation permanent and shifting to the employer the burden of proof related to the Firefighter Cancer Presumption. Firefighter McLintock noted the texts of the legislations; the conditions under which firefighters work; the number of cancer deaths attriDuted to this particular work which he stated was one out of three; and requested Council not to oppose it. Council discussion followed regarding the legislation; the current Workmans' Compensation law; the issue of cancer being job-related for firefighters. MSUC (Cox/Malcolm) to accept staff recommendation #1, but to delete #2 (amending the 1987 legislative program to include opposition to Firefighter Cancer Presumption legislation). Councilwoman McCandliss stated she is supporting this motion; however, she wants all individual bills brought before the Council from the Legislative Committee. She does not want to cheat the firefighters from any benefits; however, at the same time the Council should look at this in the context of the society as a whole. 16. REPORT OF THE CITY MANAGER a. City Manager Goss submitted a fact sheet noting the update report on the traffic installations in the City (CIP Status Report). 17. MAYOR'S REPORT a. Date for Port Commission Interviews Mayor Cox suggested that before next Tuesday's meeting, each Councilmember come back with a list of 5 names out of the 21 presented which they would like to see interviewed. At tomorrow's meeting, the Council can set a date for the interviews. b. National League of Congress Conference March 3 Council meeting. Mayor Cox noted that the National League of Congress Cities will be meeting in Washington during the March 3 week. Both he and Councilman Malcolm will be attending; therefore, there may be a possibility the March 3 meeting will be cancelled, if another Councilmember attends the conference. ~4inutes - 14 - January 27, 1987 c. Placement of "Names Around Town" Quilt Helen Stokes, 1543 MaX Avenue, Chula Vista 92011, and Mrs. Richard Weckerle, 1541 Thermal Avenue, San Diego 92154, presented the finished quilt of the "Names Around Town" asking that it be hung in the Public Services Building. The quilt contains over 770 names and the Quilters are asking that it be properly framed. MSUC (McCandliss/Malcolm) to place the quilt in the Public Services Building on the wall across from the present hanging of the Chula Vista quilt and that it be properly framed. Councilman Moore abstained. d. Setting Date for Joint Council/Schools Meeting At their meeting of January 20, the Chula Vista City Schools District selected the date of March 2, 1987 at 4 p.m. as the date for the next joint meeting - C.V. City Schools is the host agency. Since there will not be a full Council present at that date, the School District is asking for another date. MSUC (Cox/McCandliss) to set the date for March 9 at 4:00 p.m. e. Mayor Cox reported that the Hacienda Mobilehome Park rent control park issue was settled by the Mobilehome Issues Committee. 18. COUNCIL COMMENTS a. Councilman Nader discussed the Peace Bill - legislation providing life sentences for drug dealers, especially those selling to minors. City Attorney Harron noted this bill was referred to the Legislative Committee and they will be coming back with a report on it. b.

Councilwoman McCandliss: MSUC (McCandliss/Nader) to refer to the Planning staff and the Planning Commission for a study and report back on the requirement of a 3' rear yard set-back. Minutes - 15 - January 27, 1987 d. Councilwoman McCandliss submitted pictures of fine arts and sculpture works installed in European cities. She asked that the Council begin to take serious consideration of the display of artworks in the City noting the "rocks" which will be displayed on Third Avenue as an art feature and the cones now on display at the Marina. e. Councilman Malcolm gave the Legislative Report stating that on SB 23, the Beach Liability Tort Reform Measure, no action needs to be taken. f. Councilman Malcolm noted that the swings have been stolen from the E1 Rancho Del Rey Park (off Paseo Del Rey). g.
