Mayor Padilla opened the public hearing.
Housing Manager Mills and Senior Community Development Specialist Hines provided the staff
report, with Ms. Hines covering what has happened since the last update, the public review
period and state review. Ms. Mills provided the next steps to be taken, including the
implementation of tasks, programs and policies; annual review of progress; preliminary work on
the update; and the work program.
Councilmember Rindone asked the status of consideration of a sliding scale for inclusionary
housing. Ms. Mills responded that staff would bring forth such policy issues for discussion
involving community members, developers, and builders, and it was a reasonable assumption
that a sliding scale could be put into place at that time.
Patricia Aguilar, representing Crossroads II, spoke in support of the Housing Element as drafted
and commended staff for listening to concerns and revising the draft based on public input.
Tony LoPresti, representing the Environmental Health Coalition (EHC), stated he was pleased
with the public participation process. He then provided a handout with three additional
recommendations that his organization would like to see included. They were I) the
establishment of a timeline for the funding, initiation, and adoption of the Southwest Specific
Plan 2) to explicitly state that a policy establishing green building standards will be considered
on a citywide basis in six months, pending the results of the Gas Technology Institute study, and
3) to explicitly state that funding will be identified to purchase sites deemed appropriate for land
banking for the purpose of affordable housing, and that partnerships will be sought with
affordable housing non-profits that can establish a Community Land Trust model.
There being no further members of the public wishing to speak, Mayor Padilla closed the public
hearing.
Mayor Padilla asked staff to respond to the Environmental Health Coalition recommendations.
Ms. Mills expressed concem with the proposed language, which tied funding to a large policy
document. Acting Community Development Director Hix suggested language such as "a
commitment that will seek funding," rather than stating "that funding will be identified."
Councilmember Castaneda expressed concern with the redevelopment of large areas of
southwest Chula Vista with no plan. He then asked staff to come back in 60 days with a funding
plan for investing in southwest Chula Vista.
Deputy Mayor McCann stated that he did not know enough about the recommendations being
submitted by the Environmental Health Coalition to vote on them this evening, the Council
having only just received the handout. He asked that, in the future, he be contacted directly by
anyone submitting proposed recommendations to the Council prior to the meeting, so that he is
fully briefed and prepared to discuss them.

raised by the community was the possible displacement of existing residents when
redevelopment of some existing housing areas takes place, such as within portions of the
City's Urban Core area. In order to ensure that the often-special circumstances of
mobilehome residents are addressed whenever a change of use and/or rezoning is
contemplated for any existing mobilehome park, the overlay district establishes a
requirement for preparation of a plan to address any adverse effects of conversion prior to
consideration of the change of use and/or rezoning. (Director of Planning and Building)

PUBLIC HEARINGS (Continued)
Notice of the hearing was given in accordance with legal requirements, and the hearing was held
on the date and at the time specified in the notice.
Mayor Padilla opened the public hearing.
Planning and Building Director Sandoval introduced the item, and Advanced Planning Manager
Batchelder provided the staff report.
Councihnember Castaneda stated that there needed to be a distinction made between
mobilehome owners and renters. Housing Manager Mills responded that staff would be
analyzing this and other topics, and would include significant public participation from residents,
renters, park owners, and community members over the next six months.
Advanced Planning Manager Batchelder then reviewed revised language, which had been
provided to the Council for LUT 34.A.l and LUT 34.A.2 of the resolution, and Section 4(B) 2 of
the ordinance.
Patricia Aguilar, representing Crossroads II, stated that the Urban Core Specific Plan, when
adopted, would give a gift to property owners whose properties would be rezoned as a result and
increase substantially in value. She requested consideration of requiring the use of some of that
increase in value to help those who are displaced. Additionally, Ms. Aguilar stated that the
overlay zone benefits should be applied to all rental housing in the Urban Core Specific Plan
area, as welL
Barbara Nunley, resident of Jade Bay Mobilehome Park, expressed concern with the lack of
protection for mobilehome owners and advised against buying a mobilehome anywhere at this
time.
Patricia Lopez, representing residents of Bayscene Mobilehome Park, provided the Council with
a petition containing the signatures of approximately 200 residents of the Jade Bay and Bayscene
Mobile Home Parks asking the Council to stop the rezoning contained in the Urban Core
Specific Plan and keep their areas zoned for mobile home use only.
Glen Googins provided handouts, including an e-mail dated October 24, 2006, regarding the
General Plan Overlay District for MHP properties; proposed language; and copies of Chula Vista
Municipal Code Sections 9.40, 9.50 and 9.60. Mr. Googins then stated that the proposed
General Plan Overlay District for mobile home parks was too much, too fast, and that extensive
mobile home park closure/conversion regulations already exist. Further, the updated Housing
Element currently calls for enhanced relocation benefits for displaced mobilehome park
residents, with rules to be developed over the next six to twelve months, which Bayscene,
Terry's and Cabrillo Mobile Home Parks (three of the five targeted for redevelopment by the
approved General Plan Update) support. Mr. Googins believed the proposed General Plan
Overlay District would create a requirement for new findings which were vague and ambiguous,
not enforceable, possibly impossible to satisfy, and/or redundant of existing state and local law
that could prevent park conversion, even when desirable. With regard to staff's goal to put the
new law into effect prior to the election, in case Proposition 90 passes, Mr. Googins stated the
General Plan amendment would not go into effect until 30 days after adoption per California
case law, and that approval of the Housing Element Update would accomplish the goaL In
conclusion, Mr. Googins stated that the proposed language should be revised to eliminate the
new vague findings that could be used against desirable park redevelopment, noting that three of

PUBLIC HEARINGS (Continued)
the five parks slated for redevelopment would agree not to propose park conversions until the
new relocation regulations contemplated by the Housing Element Update are put in place.
Benefits must be reasonable (as required by state law) and tested so that they go to those who
really need them, and new affordable housing projects should have units prioritized for displaced
park residents.
Councilmember Rindone disclosed that he participated in discussions with Mr. Googins over the
last few weeks. He then asked Mr. Googins what provisions to which Mr. Googins referred were
currently on the books that would protect the residents of a mobile home park in the event of
bankruptcy. Mr. Googins responded that Jade Bay is a unique situation, and he did not feel
either the current or proposed provisions would solve the Jade Bay situation, as it was a closure.
City Attorney Moore clarified that the regulations to which Mr. Googins referred did not really
address a rezone or change in use. The proposed regulations do in that they require the City
Council to make findings before there is a rezone or change in use. With regard to the provision
of additional protection for mobile home park residents, current regulations require that a plan
must be prepared and reviewed by the Community Development Director, with a decision
appealable to the City Council. Under the proposed regulations, a plan would be prepared; go
directly to the Council to consider a rezone or change in use of an existing park; and require that
findings be made before any change of use or rezone could be made. The Council would have to
look at the overall supply of affordable housing and the other criteria outlined in the staff report.
Councilmember Rindone inquired as to whether staff had had an opportunity to review the
bifurcated proposal as submitted by Mr. Googins. City Attorney Moore responded that she had,
and from a legal standpoint, her only concern with the proposed changes were with the sections
pertaining to taking out the rezoning.
Mr. Googins stated that he had attempted to address the rezone in his proposal in LUT 34.A.3
and would delete "associated with any change of use" to address this issue.
Advanced Planning Manager Batchelder responded that the collective result of Mr. Googins'
,
proposal was that the zoning provisions get temporarily removed from the front portion of the
policy, mainly in the differentiation of the Urban Core parks. The zoning provision comes up at
the end but is applicable only to the parks outside of the 14 Urban Core parks. Staff was not
comfortable with proposing differential treatment at that detailed level. Additionally, the sixth
finding that is stricken in Mr. Googins' proposal is the one that acknowledges that if there is a
rezoning and not an eminent park closure, the plan has to provide sufficient assurances to the
Council that at such time as the park does close, there is a commitment to provided a detailed
closure pl~.
Mayor Padilla inquired, and Mr. Batchelder clarified, that the requirement for a plan could be
handled at either level, but staff preferred to handle it at the implementation level, rather than the
broader policy level, as this allows the consideration to be taken at the zoning level so the
Housing Eelement policies are brought into consideration at the time a rezoning is considered.

PUBLIC HEARINGS (Continued)
City Attorney Moore stated that staff's proposed ordinance ties down and gets specific, allowing
the Council to have a broader view at an earlier level with respect to what happens with those
parks.
Chip Crandall, co-owner of Bayscene Mobile Home Park, stated that there needs to be respect
for the positions of both the park owner and the mobile home owner. Given the rent control
regulations, he did not understand why a park owner would not work to reach some middle
ground to avoid a closure or bankruptcy. He then addressed Ms. Aguilar's position regarding
affordable housing and her statement that up-zoning 2qw a gift, which he stated did not take into
consideration the risk taken by developers who put their personal assets on the line to guarantee
their construction loans. Mr. Crandall then requested that means testing be developed to evaluate
the affordable needs of the City's residents.
There being no further members of the public wishing to speak, Mayor Padilla closed the public
hearing.
Mayor Padilla requested clarification as to the distinction between the overlay zone and going in
at the implementing level and amending the closure ordinance; what was being provided in terms
of protection, leverage and strength in the decision-making process with the zone; and what level
of latitude local jurisdictions have to be consistent with state law and if the City could go beyond
that. He then stated, for those who thought this option had just come up, that it had been under
consideration since mid-August.
Deputy City Attorney Maland responded that the state statute requires that the proponent submit
a plan to the municipal legislative body, which is charged with analyzing and reviewing the plan.
It may impose requirements on the proponent to ensure that displaced residents have certain
protections with respect to relocating. The only limitation is that the reasonable cost of
relocation cannot be exceeded.
Councilmember Rindone asked Mr. Crandall repeat comments he had made at a recent Planning
Commission meeting. Mr. Crandall stated that he had offered apartments to several mobile
home tenants who were being uprooted, and no one was interested. Further, he believed that this
was a human nature issue of lifestyle, and strong leadership was needed to help people get
through this hardship.
Councilmember Castaneda stated that the Council is talking about tightening the laws that
already exist. The urgency ordinance allows staff time to get a handle on what is going on and to
review what is going to be implemented with mobilehome park owners, residents, attorneys and
staff.
Councilmember Rindone stated that this is about fairness, protection, and defending the process,
a first step in all directions.

process, it does not have authority or jurisdiction over whether the existing power plant stays or
goes. He stated that the issue is very complex, and without the support of the State of California

park residents would get approximately 15% depreciation value for their homes. Ms. Lancaster
distributed a list of urgent needs of the current residents that included packing materials,
vouchers, and moving assistance, and, foremost, an affordable place to live that would be close

ACTION ITEMS
12. CONSIDERATION OF PROPOSALS RELATED TO STAFFING IN THE
DEPARTMENT OF MAYOR AND COUNCIL AND OF AMENDMENTS TO THE
MUNICIPAL CODE RELATED TO THE APPOINTING AUTHORITY FOR
POSITIONS ESTABLISHED IN THE DEPARTMENT OF MAYOR AND COUNCIL
The proposed Council actions involve staffing issues in the Department of Mayor and
Council. Items A through C relate to a proposal by Mayor-elect Cox to redesign positions
by designating these positions as Legislative Assistants I, II, and III, to serve at the will of
the Mayor. The proposed positions would have broader job specifications than the current
positions in order to allow greater flexibility in staffing the Department to better meet the
needs of the City. The proposal involves the elimination of three positions currently
authorized in the Department's budget. The redesigned positions would be funded through
cost savings from the eliminated positions; no additional appropriations would be
required. Item D is an ordinance to clarify that the Mayor is the appointing authority for
positions established in the Department of Mayor and Council unless otherwise provided
by City Charter or designated by the Council. Item D further provides that the appointing
authority for the Council Assistants and Senior Council Assistants would be delegated to
the individual Councilmembers served by them. (City Attorney/Mayor-elect)

ACTION ITEMS (continued)
Recommendation: Mayor-elect Cox recommends Council place the ordinances in Items

Attorney recommends that the Council place the ordinance in Item D on first reading.
Deputy City Attorney Dawson presented a legal analysis of the I?roposals.
Councilmember Rindone stated that he had no concerns with Item D, which stated what has been
in practice. Regarding Items A, B and C, he believed any resulting savings should be returned to
the general fund and not reallocated to staff in the Mayor and Council Office.
Councilmember Ramirez stated that Item D was appropriate and would codify existing practice.
He expressed concern with disparity and reporting authority to the Mayor rather than the
remainder of the Council. He was hopeful that his colleagues would consider the implications
and history and make appropriate decisions.
Councilmember Castaneda spoke in support of Item D and said he would like further public
discussion and further budget reductions, and to look at the needs of all officeholders. He stated
that he would like to schedule a holistic discussion as soon as possible to discuss how the Mayor
and Council can do the best job for the citizens.
Deputy Mayor McCann stated that his concerns were primarily budget related and pointed out
that two of the three proposed positions have salary ranges higher than the prior positions. He
spoke of the need to look at the matter comprehensively, and he believed that Councilmernbers
should have individual flexibility and be accountable for their own budgets. He spoke in support
of Item D. He asked Interim City Manager Thomson about the policy for staff salaries, equity
adjustments, and special merit increases. Interim City Manager Thomson explained the method.
Deputy Mayor McCann expressed the need to review the Mayor/Council budget and make
decisions equitable for all Councilmembers.
Councilmember Ramirez believed that the real issue was the distribution of resources and where
the appointing authority lies.
Peter Watry opposed the allocation of resources, stating that governmental decisions needed to
be made by the Council as a whole. He urged the Council to re-allocate resources so the part-
time members have the opportunity to have the same knowledge as the Mayor without spending
any more money.
Mayor Cox requested to withdraw Items A, B and C, pending further discussions by the Council.

discussion.

4. "Development" and "Redevelopment". Regarding development, Chula Vista could be in
a situation in which perhaps the only thing worse than too much growth is too little
growth. We must choose to do the hard work and ask the hard questions, for only then
will we be able best to focus our collective energies and skill.
City revenues partially depend upon increasing home values and home sales, which drive
up property tax revenues. If property values and sales decline, the ability to payoff
substantial City-issued bonds can be at risk. In short, the City Council must review the
City's fmancial contingency plans, based upon levels of new homes and commercial/
industrial activities, if it is to think strategically in terms of contingency for the proverbial
rainy day, and to know how the cycle of growth and bonding ends. This means asking
that each department's operating budget be scrutinized in order to create additional
capital improvement dollars for needed infrastructure, such as improving the condition of
streets and roads throughout the City.
5. Redevelopment, when properly accomplished, enjoys increased citizen participation in
decision-making, a commitment to downtown revitalization, and an emphasis on
improving the quality of life. It allows, and encourages people to seek a sense of
community, of belonging, and of history.
A proposal of a short breathing period in which our City Council seeks to involve a
person or persons with no certain stake, investment, or future intent of investment in our
historic downtown, in looking at our City's Urban Core Specific Plan from the viewpoint
of marketability.
6. Give some thought to hosting five or six non-political, wholly informative, "lectures," to
help us all understand the complex terminology and factors related to how California
cities finance themselves. Guest speakers would discuss a topic specific to municipal
finance, one that could be "played" in any California incorporated city-addressing, for
example, "tax increment financing," "development impact fees," and "community
maintenance agreements." If this outreach is successful, then staff, elected officials,
businesspeople, and residents will have a common, and better understanding of the
framework for open and honest discussions that are part of people working together on
their City's future.

OTHER BUSINESS (Continued)
7. The opening of H Street to San Diego Bay is a must if we are to provide our residents
with visual and physical access to the Bayfront. We are well positioned to enter into the
next level of formal discussions with Gaylord. If negotiated well, this project can bring
not only visitors to our community, but can allow Chula Vistans to explore this resort
ourselves as we dine in its restaurants and stroll through the shops. Our residents have
been denied access to the Bayfront for too long. It is time that the people of Chula Vista
be able to enjoy a waterfront walk and time with their families in a phenomenal indoor
and outdoor setting.
8. Locating a complete University of California campus within our University Park might
be out of reach for now; however, attracting a UC school, such as a School of
Engineering, Pharmacology or a Veterinary Science School, to Chula Vista can be great
boosts to educational opportunity in the area.
9. SR-125, we hope, will alleviate the syndrome in which traffic, like water, follows the
path of least resistance. We hope that when the South Bay Expressway opens in June
that many of our residents actively use the Tollway instead of city streets.
10. Good commercial investment adds additional sales tax revenue to City coffers. It makes
possible public access and the filling of community needs. New projects such as the
Eastern Urban Center, the car dealerships on Otay Valley Road, and the Otay Ranch Mall
are encouraging. Sales tax dollars from these businesses and from long-established and
other new businesses throughout the City are used to support needed City services.
Mayor Cox spoke of the need to work together to spend taxpayer dollars wisely, and within the
confines of a balanced budget, one in which we do not spend more than we bring in; and to
conduct the public's business in public to the extent that the law allows, in a respectful, honest
way. Fulfilling a vision is not the work of one person, but of many. She asked for patience,
thoughtful insights, and understanding by the public as the Council works to serve Chula Vista in
the coming months.
15. COUNCIL COMMENTS
Councilmember Rindone congratulated Mayor Cox and Councilmembers McCann and Ramirez
on their elections. He congratulated the Mayor on the articulation of her ten goals, and pledged
to work collectively to accomplish them. He stated that he would like to call a timely meeting to
determine the number of qualified candidates for City Manager and to perhaps even consider a
Saturday meeting to accomplish this.
Councilmember Rindone referred to a memo from staff addressing the elimination of the Taste
of the Arts Festival and requested that staff calendar the matter to come back to the Council for
discussion.

OTHER BUSINESS (Continued)
Deputy Mayor McCann welcomed and congratulated Mayor Cox and Councilmember Ramirez,
and thanked and looked forward to continued work with Councilmembers Rindone and
Castaneda. He expressed the importance of moving forward with the process of hiring a City
Manager. With reference to point 5 of the Mayor's action plan, the RedevelopmentlUrban Core
Specific Plan, he asked whether that delay would hurt businesses that have signed Exclusive
Negotiating Agreements (ENA's) with the City to develop portions of the urban area. He
expressed the need to ensure that the five ENA's were not put in jeopardy. On the matter of the
Chargers, he stated that a request for a study of a proposed Chargers stadium would be coming
before the Council in the few weeks.
Councilmember Ramirez stated that he would make himself available to discuss the hiring of a
City Manager, as well as staffing issues in the Department of the Mayor and Council. Regarding
redevelopment, he spoke of the need for collective ideas to address community characte, and to
perhaps explore the idea of creating a scaled model of the urban core so that people could get a
better understanding of the concept.
Councilmember Castaneda congratulated his three colleagues and pledged his support of the
Mayor's action plan. He commended Deputy Mayor McCann for representing the City on
discussions with the Chargers.

provided the Council with an update regarding current efforts to obtain the necessary
environmental permits required for the continued operation of the Point Lorna Treatment
Plant. A vote of the Metro Commission on this subject is scheduled for December 14,

San Diego's current strategy for concurrent initiation of the waiver application and
negotiations of a consent decree at the upcoming meeting. (Engineering Director)
City Engineer Tulloch, assisted by Assistant Engineering Director Browder, provided the staff
report and responded to questions of the Council.
Councilmember Rindone noted that the cities of Imperial Beach and Coronado concurred with
staffs recommendation on Item 18B, and the recommendation appeared to be in the best
interests of Chula Vista, as well. With regard to Item 18A, he inquired as to whether any of his
Council colleagues would be interested in serving as voting alternate, should the Mayor not be
able to attend a meeting.
Councilmember Castaneda believed it would behoove the City to have an elected member serve
as an alternate and, noting his experience on this matter through working with City staff and his
experience with the City of San Diego for many years, volunteered to be the Mayor's voting
alternate, if so desired by his colleagues.
Interim City Manager Thomson suggested that the Council consider appointing the City Manager
or designee as the second voting alternate, should the alternate not be able to make the meetings

OTHER BUSINESS (Continued)
Councilmember Rindone thanked the Council for their support in naming him Deputy Mayor.
Councilmember Ramirez clarified his prior comments on the Mayor and Council Office staffing,
stating that he believed there was an imbalance in the allocation of resources. Councilmember
Ramirez further expressed disappointment that the Mayor had selected Deputy Mayor McCann
to serve with her on the Council budget subcommittee, stating that he believed he should have
been chosen since he had divergent ideas. He then elaborated that he believed the Mayor should
have the right and authority to select and appoint her chief of staff and perhaps the receptionist;
and Councilmembers should appoint their own aides and assistants. The remainder of the staff
should be selected by the Mayor but be accountable to the entire City Council, who should share
in the responsibility for their work products.
Mayor Cox explained that the selection of Councilmember McCann as a member of the budget
subcommittee was made by the prior Mayor. She further clarified that she had initiated
conversations with members of the Council to ask which committee assignments they wished to
continue, and she would bring the information to the Council as a whole on December 19th, at
which time Councilmember Ramirez would have first chance to select any open seats on which
he wished to serve.. Additionally, she and Deputy Mayor McCann would bring back suggestions
for Council consideration on the budget that would pertain to the rest ofthis fiscal year.
Councilmember Ramirez addressed the Mayor's IO-point plan, stating that he wholeheartedly
agreed with every item, and would work hard to help fulfill the goals. He then referenced Item
5, regarding a short breathing period and the statement referring to the City's Urban Core
Specific Plan and the statement "armed with market facts." He asked consideration of adding
that it is not just about the buy and sell, but also about truth and beauty, and it should address the
community concerns about community character. Councilmember Ramirez also suggested that
the Mayor and Council ask the development community to help pay for a scaled model of the
Urban Core as a tool that would be used as a working concept.
Councilmember Ramirez next spoke regarding the Jade Bay Mobilehome Park bankruptcy issues
and stated that the City needed to do whatever was possible to stem a trend toward bankruptcies
in the mobile home parks.
Lastly, Councilmember Ramirez thanked Councilmember Rindone for taking the lead on the
project to acquire security cameras at the Chula Vista trolley stations.
Councilmember Castaneda added to Councilmember Ramirez' comments regarding the Jade Bay
issue, stating that he was proud that the City and Council had gone above and beyond what most
cities would do for their citizens, and would continue to work very hard to provide the residents
with resources and opportunities they needed to acquire safe and clean housing. He then
provided a brief overview of the ordinance adopted by the Council a few months ago that
required relocation plans, and he suggested that the Council consider a policy and/or ordinance
regarding relocation requirements that would hold the landowner or developer accountable for
repaying costs expended to assist the residents.
Councilmember Castaneda then stated he supported an independent review of the City budget
status but commented that the Council should review the request for proprosals prior to its being
released.

COUNCIL COMMENTS (continued)
Councilmember Rindone announced that a press conference would be held Tuesday, December
18th at II :00 a.m. at the E Street Trolley Station, cosponsored by the Metropolitan Transit
System and City of Chula Vista, to obtain publicity for the live surveillance security cameras,
which have been placed at the E Street, H Street, and Palomar Trolley Stations in Chula Vista.
Councilmember Rindone then requested that the memorandum by Interim Community
Development Director Hix regarding the mobilehome situation be released to the press so that
the efforts of the City are understood. He added that the Council and staff were staying the
course so that any potential profits would come back to those being displaced.
Lastly, Councilmember Rindone spoke regarding the progress of the Urban Core Specific Plan,
noting that the phrase "truth in beauty" was very important but applied to both sides. One could
not promote pictures and diagrams of proposed projects that were not proposed and propagate
misinformation. The alternative, if the City is not able to redevelop adequately, would be
increased vacancy and vagrancy, and western Chula Vista would not be reinvigorated. He then
noted that the City of Pasadena was successful in its redevelopment as it had flexibility in its
regulations that provided the opportunity for revitalization.
Mayor Cox stated that South Bay Community Services was assisting the Community
Development Department with relocation of Jade Bay mobilehome park residents, and she
suggested that local service groups be contacted to assist residents in transition. Mayor Cox then
clarified that the Trolley Station security camera press conference was scheduled for Monday,
. December 18th at 11 :00 a.m.

COUNCIL AGENDA STATEMENT
ITEM TITLE:
Item: 3
Meeting Date: 1/9/07
Resolution of the City Council of the City of Chula Vista eliminating
the position of Intergovernmental Affairs Coordinator from the
authorized positions in the Department of Mayor and Council's
Fiscal Year 2007 budget, with the City Manager assuming the
administrative duties of the position with existing budgetary
resources
REVIEWED BY:
Director of BU~hd Analysis tv'
City Manager "jf (4/5ths Vote: Yes _ No L )
SUBMITTED BY:
BACKGROUND At the December 19, 2006 City Council meeting, the City Council's
Budget Subcommittee, composed of Mayor Cox and Councilmember McCann,
presented a memorandum for discussion during Mayor and Council comments. The
memorandum was regarding support staff issues in the Department of Mayor and
Council. The memorandum is attached to this Agenda Statement as Exhibit A.
Following discussion, the Council, by oral motion and majority vote, expressed its intent
to eliminate the position of Intergovernmental Affairs Coordinator from the authorized
positions in the Department of Mayor and Council's Fiscal Year 2007 budget, with the
administrative duties of the position to be assumed by the City Manager with existing
budgetary resources.
The Council directed City staff to prepare a resolution and bring it to the January 9,
2007 Council meeting, formalizing the Council's intended action.
RECOMMENDATION: That Council adopt the resolution eliminating the position of
Intergovernmental Affairs Coordinator from the authorized positions in the Department
of Mayor and Council's Fiscal Year 2007 budget.
BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: N/A.
DISCUSSION:
By Resolution 2004-284, on August 24, 2004, the Council approved a budgetary
transfer of the position of Intergovernmental Affairs Coordinator from the City Manager's
Office to the Department of Mayor and Council. The transfer was part of a shifting of
oversight of the City's Legislative Program, from a committee composed of the City
Manager, City Attorney, and one member of the City Council, to a committee composed
of the Mayor and one member of the Council.

Page 2, Item ~
Meeting Date: 1/9/07
At the Council meeting on December 19, 2006, the Council discussed and stated its
intent to eliminate the position of Intergovernmental Affairs Coordinator from the
Department of Mayor and Council's Fiscal Year 2007 budget. Under the Council's
action, the Manager will assume the administrative functions of the Intergovernmental
Affairs Coordinator with existing budgetary resources.
The elimination of the Intergovernmental Affairs Coordinator resulted in savings of
$63,600 in fiscal year 2007. These funds will be administratively encumbered (frozen)
for the remainder of fiscal year 2007; these funds will be returned to the General Fund
at the end of the fiscal year.
DECISION MAKER CONFLICT
Staff has reviewed the decision contemplated by this action and has determined that it
is not site specific and consequently the 500 foot rule found in California Code of
Regulations section 18704.2(a)(1) is not applicable to this decision.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Approval of this resolution will result in savings of $63,600 in the fiscal year 2007 Mayor
and Council department budget. The ongoing savings are $124,000.
3-2
From:
Chula Vista City Council ~
Council Budget Subcommittee Members Cox and McCann
To:
Date:
December 14, 2006
Support staff in the Office of Mayor and CounCil
Subject:
In an effort to respond to comments offered by Council members in the City Council
meeting of December 5, regarding support staff in the Office of Mayor and Council, we
offer these topics that Cheryl plans to bring to the Council for discussion under Mayor's
Comments in our December 19 meeting. The Subcommittee anticipates that the
Mayor/Council budget will be part of a comprehensive budget that will be reviewed by
the Council in May/June 2007.
BackQround
Support staff in the Office of Mayor and Council under discussion includes the following
positions:
Position
Inter ovemmental Affairs Coordinator
Coastal/Environmental Poll Consultant
Senior Council Aide
Resolution 2004-284 (approved 08/24/04) authorized the transfer of the
Intergovernmental Affairs Coordinator position from the City Manager's Office to the
Office of Mayor and Council. Ordinance 3042, approved 09/26/06, shifted the appointing
authority for this position from the Mayor to the Mayor and Council.
Resolution 2005-326, approved 9/20105, authorized the addition of a Coastal and
Environmental Policy Coordinator position to the Office of Mayor and Council. This
position was intended to improve the City's ability to monitor and analyze the growing
number and complexity of land use and environmental issues citywide including the
Bayfront Master Plan, the Urban Core Specific Plan, and the University Project.
SUQQested Discussion Points
1. Coastal/Environmental Policy Consultant
The Mayor is prepared to fill the position of Coastal/Environmental Policy Consultant as
a half-time position or less. The position is currently authorized as a fuil-time position
and funded at $114,400 annually (salary and benefits). Reducing it to a half-time
position or less for the balance of fiscal year 2007 would save at least $41,000. The
Mayor will re-examine this position during budget deliberations in June 2007.
The $41,000 in savings would be returned to the General Fund to pay for or help offset
the cost of an Independent Financial Review, scope and cost to be determined.
:a-.::f
2. Intergovernmental Affairs Coordinator
The Mayor is prepared to recommend the elimination of the position of
Intergovernmental Affairs Coordinator from the Mayor and C01Jncil budget and the shift
of these duties to existing staff in the City Manager's Office, where the government
relations function had existed prior to August 2004. If the City Council agrees to
eliminate this position from the Mayor and Council budget, staff will bring back a
resolution at a subsequent Council meeting to eliminate the position from the budget.
Adoption of this recommendation would result in a savings of $63,600 in fiscal year 2007
and $124,700 per year ongoing.
3. Council Aides
Regarding Council interest in supplementing City Council staff funding, the City Council
might consider increasing each Council member's budget for Council staff by a specified
amount. With the savings of $63,600 described above by eliminating the
Intergovernmental Affairs Coordinator position in the Mayor and Council budget and
shifting the duties to existing staff in the City Manager's Office, there could be an
allocation to Council staff and a net savings to the general fund for fiscal year 2007.
Any additional funding for Council staff could be addressed as part of the comprehensive
budget review at the May/June budget hearings.

BACKGROUND
The Sweetwater Union High School District (SUHSD) has awarded a $100,274 contract
for the provision of after-school programming at six Chula Vista Middle Schools to the
City, through its Recreation Department (please see Attachment "A"). The adopted
FY07 Recreation Department budget includes funding for this middle school program
contract.
In addition, Hilltop Middle School, Castle Park Middle School, and Chula Vista Middle
School have been awarded a State grant for the provision of additional before- and after-
school programming hours. The Schools have asked the Recreation Department to
provide these services, via Memorandums of Understanding (MOU), for $6,000, $6,000,
and $14,010, respectively (please see Attachments "B", "C", and "D"). These hours are
in addition to the existing, budgeted after-school hours provided by the Department to the
Schools.
The adopted FY07 Recreation Department budget includes funding of $15,010 to contract
with the YMCA of San Diego County South Bay Branch (YMCA) for the provision of
after-school services at four middle school sites during non-school hours. The City has
contracted with the YMCA for these services on an annual basis since 1993, when City
Council initially approved funding for the newly established Youth Action Program
(Attachment E).
The YMCA of San Diego County has requested that the Recreation Department provide after
school programming at Castle Park Middle School and Hilltop Middle School as part of the
Critical Hours Program, via a Memorandum of Understanding (MOD), for $8,371
(Attachment F).
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The Environmental Review Coordinator has reviewed the proposed activity for
compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined
that the activity is not a 'Project" as defined under Section 15378 of the State CEQA
Guidelines; therefore, pursuant to SectionI5060(c)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines the
activity is not subject to CEQA. Thus, no environmental review is necessary.

Monday through Friday, 3:15 - 5:15 PM

Due to the success of the program, Hilltop Middle School, Castle Park Middle School,

progranuning be provided by the Department, to be funded from a new State grant.
Hilltop Middle School is proposing an MOD with the City for $6,000 to fund staffing

covers the school year, from September 2006 through June 2007.

disbursed quarterly on a reimbursement basis, upon receipt from the YMCA of submittals
including, but not limited to, employee timesheets, expenditure receipts, and monthly
service and financial reports.
DECISION MAKER CONFLICT
Staff has reviewed the property holdings of the City Council and has found a conflict
exists, in that Council member Castaneda has property holdings within 500 feet of the
boundaries of the Chula Vista Middle School property which is one of the subjects of this
action.
FISCAL IMPACT
SUHSD funds one-half of the cost of the middle school program, or $100,274.
Expenditures and revenues for this program are currently included in the FY07
Recreation Department budget, and do not need to be appropriated. SUHSD will
reimburse the City quarterly for expenses following the submittal of invoices for services
rendered.
The FY07 budget for the Recreation Department is proposed to be amended by $34,381
for the after-school program enhancements, fully offset by reimbursements from the
middle schools and YMCA of San Diego County, with no net impact to the General
Fund. These are one-time costs for this fiscal year only. The schools will reimburse the
City for expenses following the submittal of semester invoices for services rendered. The
YMCA of San Diego County will reimburse the City for expenses following the
submittal of invoices for services rendered.
Funds of $15,010 for the agreement with the South Bay YMCA are ongoing and are
already included in the FY07 Recreation Department budget, and do not need to be
appropriated. One-half of this $15,010 cost is reimbursed to the City by SUHSD.

RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
OF THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA, CALIFORNIA,
FORMING AND ESTABLISHING COMMUNITY
FACILITIES DISTRICT NO. 13M (OTAY RANCH

LEVY OF SPECIAL TAXES WITHIN THE CFD TO THE
QUALITIED ELECTORS THEREOF
SUBMITTED BY:
REVIEWED BY:

NO X
BACKGROUND
On November 21, 2006, the City Council initiated proceedings for the formation of CFD
No. 13M by adoption of Resolutions 2006-349 through 2006-351. Tonight's action will
be the next step in the proceedings to establish CFD No. 13M. This district will fund the
perpetual operation and maintenance of (a) landscaping including, but not limited to,
parkways, medians and slopes; (b) facilities that are directly related to storm water
quality control; (c) walls and fencing; (d) trails; ( e) pedestrian bridges, including, but not
limited to, graffiti removal; and (f) public lighting facilities. The City has retained the
services of MuniFinancial as special tax consultant and Best, Best and Krieger, LLP as
legal counsel to provide assistance during the proceedings.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The Environmental Review Coordinator has reviewed the proposed actIVIty for
compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined
that the activity is not a "Project" as defined under Section 15378 of the State CEQA
Guidelines because the creation of government funding mechanism is not considered a
6-1
1/9/07, Item~
Page 2 of6
project; therefore, pursuant to Section 15060(c)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines the
activity is not subject to CEQA. Thus, no environmental review is necessary.
RECOMMENDATION
That Council:
1. Open Public Hearing and receive testimony from the public,
2. Close the Public Hearing,
3. Approve the resolution forming and establishing Community Facilities District
No. 13M (Otay Ranch Village Two), and authorizing submittal of levy of special
taxes within the CFD to the qualified electors thereof.
BOARDS/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
Not applicable
DISCUSSION
On January 13, 1998, Council adopted the "City of Chula Vista Statement of Goals and
Policies regarding the establishment of Community Facilities Districts" (the "Goals and
Policies"). The approval of this document ratified the use of CFDs as a public financing
mechanism for (1) the construction and/or acquisition of public infrastructure, and (2) the
financing of authorized public services. Taxes levied by maintenance districts, such as
CFD No. 13M, are currently excluded from the 2% maximum tax criterion set forth in the
Goals and Policies.
On April 28, 1998, Council, acting under its Charter authority, enacted the "Chula Vista
Community Facilities District Ordinance" (the "Ordinance"). The Ordinance adopted the
Mello-Roos Act with modifications to accomplish the following: 1) incorporate all
maintenance activities authorized by the "Landscaping & Lighting Act of 1972" ("1972
Act"), 2) include certain maintenance activities not listed in the "Mello-Roos Act" or the
"1972 Act", and 3) establish an operating reserve fund for open space districts.
CFD 13M will provide the necessary funding for the operation and maintenance of public
landscaping and storm water quality, walls, fencing, trails, pedestrian bridges, and
lighting improvements serving Otay Ranch Village Two by levying an annual "special
tax", which is collected from the property owners within CFD 13M in conjunction with
the property taxes. There is no direct cost to the City. All expenses related to the district
administration, including levying and collecting the special taxes, are also funded from
such special taxes.
The proposed CFD No. 13M is consistent with the above-mentioned Ordinance and the
Goals and Policies. In addition, the staff and developer have met to discuss, review and
clarify the intent of the Goals and Policies and Ordinance, the proposed special tax rates
and the methodology for the apportionment of the special taxes. Any matters raised by
the developers have been discussed and solutions, satisfactory to all parties, were
incorporated in the "Rate and Method of Apportionment" (the "RMA") presented at the
November 21, 2006, Council meeting.

1/9107, Item~
Page 3 of6
During its November 21,2006 meeting, the City Council approved Resolution No. 2006-
351, which ordered the preparation of a Community Facilities District Report ("Report")
See Exhibit "A". The Report includes the following information in greater detail:
Area of Benefit
The proposed boundaries of CFD No. 13M encompass parcels located within Village
Two, an Urban Village of approximately eight-hundred and, eleven (810.9) acres located
south of Olympic Parkway between future Heritage Road and La Media Road, and north
of Wolf Canyon (see Exhibit "B", Otay Ranch Village Two Vicinity Map). Otay Project,
LP., Otay Ranch Investments, LP, Rancho Mesa, LP, the City of San Diego (for their
regional water line), and seventeen other entities own the property within the proposed
district. Otay Ranch Village Two is proposed to contain approximately 1,310 single-
family detached homes and 1,476 multi-family units (365.60 residential acres), industrial
areas (94.70 acres) and a commercial area (12.50 acres), a public school (10.30 acres),
three neighborhood parks (15.40 acres), one community park (44.60 acres), and several
Community Purpose Facility ("CPF") properties (6.30 acres). The Otay Landfill area
located to the southwest of the village will be excluded from the CFD. Staff has reviewed
the recorded boundary map and has found it acceptable and ready for approval by
Council. A reduced copy of the map is presented in the Report.
Description of the hnprovements to be Maintained
The proposed CFD No. 13M will fund the operation and maintenance of the public
landscaping, storm water treatment, walls and fencing, trails, pedestrian bridges, and
lighting improvements within Otay Ranch Village Two. The list of the improvements is
presented in the report.
Cost Estimate
The estimated annual budget for CFD No. 13M, presented on November 21, 2006, is
approximately $3,305,251. This budget includes a total of $2,963,294 for landscape,
storm water quality, walls and fencing, trails, pedestrian bridges, and lighting
maintenance, $41,480 for CFD administration (preparing reports, levying and collecting
taxes, public assistance, etc.) by the Engineering Division or their designee, and an
additional $300,477 to fund an operating reserve for maintenance. Staff (Public
Works/Operations and Engineering) and MuniFinancial have reviewed and approved the
proposed budget. The detailed budget is included in the Report.
Proposed Special Tax
CFD 13M has five proposed categories of taxation, as follows:
1. Residential Developed Parcels (Single Family and Multi-Family Residences)
are taxed based on the square footage ofthe structure.
2. Industrial and Commercial Parcels are taxed on the acreage of the parcel.
3. The Final Mapped properties, which include all single-family residential parcels
and all industrial and commercial parcels, for which a building permit has not
been issued, are taxed on acreage of the parcel.
4. Vacant land (Other Taxable property) is taxed on acreage of the parcel.
6-3
1/9/07, Item~
Page 4 of6
5. The Exempt Category includes all publicly owned parcels, Homeowner's
Association parcels, and certain CPF property owned by non-profit
organizations.
Developed Parcels are those parcels for which a building permit has been issued. The
proposed maximum special tax rate in the RMA on all Developed Parcels was
determined by dividing the estimated annual budget at b'uild out (plus an operating
reserve allocation of 10% of the annual budget) by the total estimated development at
build out. For residential property, residential building square footage was used and for
non-residential property, industrial and commercial estimated acreage was used.
The proposed maximum special tax rate in the RMA on vacant land has been determined
by dividing the estimated annual budget at build out (plus a reserve allocation of 10% of
the annual budget) by the estimated net lot acreage within the district.
Collection of Taxes
At the beginning of each fiscal year the City shall determine the amount of the Special
Tax Liability (budget plus reserve) of the CFD. Then, the special taxes will first be levied
on the Residential and Non-Residential Developed Parcels. If this pool of funds is not
enough to fund the Special Tax Requirement, as may be the case in the early years of
development, the district will levy the special tax on the vacant land starting with Final
Mapped Property. The buffer of having the vacant land covering any portion of the
Special Tax Requirement not funded from special taxes levied on Residential and Non-
Residential Developed Parcels will disappear once the area has been fully developed. If
the Special Tax Requirement for any fiscal year is less than the maximum special tax
authorized to be levied on the Developed Parcels, the actual rate of the special taxes to be
levied in that specific year will be reduced accordingly.
Following is a brief discussion of some key issues regarding the "Rate and Method of
Apportionment (RMA) of Special Taxes":
The maximum special tax rates shall be adjusted each year for inflation using a factor
equal to the greater of the annual percentage increase, if any, in the San Diego Consumer
Price Index (CPI-D) or 4%.
The Ordinance requires that the developer maintain the landscape improvements for the
minimum period of one year following their completion. During this period the district
will collect the special taxes with the purpose of building up a six month operating
reserve. The RMA provides that the annual budget for any year may include an amount
deemed necessary to maintain an adequate level of this operating reserve fund.
The maximum special tax rates are based on the best estimate by the developer of the
building square footage of residential development and the acreage of non-residential
(industrial and commercial) development within CFD 13M (reduced by 5%). This
reduction in estimated total square footage of residential development and in estimated
acreage of non-residential development has the net result of raising the maximum special
6-4
1/9/07, Item~
Page 5 of6
tax that can be levied on future residential parcels and on future non-residential
(industrial and commercial) parcels to avoid a possible shortfall in special tax revenue in
the event that the actual square footage of residential development or the actual acreage
of non-residential (industrial and commercial) development is less than the projected
square footage or acreage on which the computation of the special tax rates has been
based. If the actual square footage or acreage of development meets or exceeds the
proj ections on which the special tax rates were based, the actUal special tax rate necessary
to be levied annually to fund the Special Tax Liability may be less than the authorized
maximum special tax.
The annual budget used to calculate the special tax rates are only the "best estimates" of
the cost of maintenance at buildout. There is always a risk that actual expenses in future
years may be higher than the total maximum collectable special taxes. This may result in
reduced levels of maintenance of landscaping, unless the property owners approve an
increase in the special tax rates (2/3 voter approval is required), which is considered
unlikely. Staff believes, however, that the proposed maximum special tax rates contain
enough of a cushion in the operating reserve, the inflation adjustment, and the assumed
reduction of total square footage of residential development and total acreage of non-
residential (industrial and commercial) development to minimize the risk of future special
tax revenue shortfalls.
Proposed Maximum Annual Special Taxes
The proposed maximum annual special tax rates for fiscal year 2006/07 for a typical
dwelling unit within CFD 13M are as follows:
Unit T e with Avera e S uare Foota e
Single-Family Detached (Average Product Proposed
2,836 S uare Feet)
Multi-Family Attached (Average Product Proposed
1,416 S ltare Feet)
Vacant Land
Otay Ranch Village Two
$1,248.26 er unit
$623.32 er unit
$7,358.74 per acre
Resolution
There is one resolution on today's agenda, which, if adopted, will accomplish the
following:
The RESOLUTION OF FORMATION is the formal action of the City Council forming
and establishing CFD No. 13M and authorizes the electors to vote on the special taxes.
DECISION MAKER CONFLICT
Staff has reviewed the property holdings of the City Council and has found no property
holdings within 500 feet of the boundaries of the property which is the subject of this
action.

FISCAL IMPACT
All costs off ormation of the district are being borne by the developers and the on-going
administration will be funded entirely by the district. The City will recover the full cost of
stafftime expended in district formation and administration activities in perpetuity.

BACKGROUND
On November 21,2006, the City Council initiated the Community Facilities District No.
97-2 (Preserve Maintenance District) ("CFD No. 97-2") annexation proceedings by
adoption of Resolutions 2006-347 and 2005-348. Tonight's action is the next step in the
formal proceedings to annex the territory within Otay Ranch Village Two into
Improvement Area C of CFD No. 97-2. Improvement Area A funds the costs of the
Resource Monitoring Program as well as Preserve Operations and Maintenance.
Improvement Area B only funds the Resource Monitoring Program. Special taxes levied
within Improvement Area C fund the costs of the Resource Monitoring Program as well
as Preserve Operations and Maintenance consistent with the requirements of the Otay
Ranch Resource Management Plan Phases I and II, plus a pro-rata share of
Administrative Expenses ofCFD No. 97-2. Otay Ranch Village Two will not be annexed

into Improvement Area A or Improvement Area B. The City has retained the services of
MuniFinancial as special tax consultant and Best, Best, and Krieger, LLP, as legal
counsel to provide assistance during the proceedings.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The Environmental Review Coordinator has reviewed' the proposed actIvIty for
compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined
that the activity is not a "Project" as defined under Section 15378 of the State CEQA
Guidelines because the creation of government funding mechanism is not considered a
project; therefore, pursuant to Section 15060(c)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines the
activity is not subject to CEQA. Thus, no environmental review is necessary.
RECOMMENDATION
That Council:
I. Open the Public Hearing and receive testimony from the public,
2. Close the Public Hearing,
3. Approve the resolution making determinations and authorizing submittal of levy
of special taxes to the qualified electors of certain territory proposed to be
annexed to CFD No. 97-2.
BOARDS/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
Not Applicable
DISCUSSION
In July 1998, Council formed Community Facilities District No. 97-2 (Preserve
Maintenance District). CFD No. 97-2 was originally divided into two Improvement
Areas, Improvement Area A and Improvement Area B, that were designated when CFD
No. 97-2 was formed. Special taxes levied within Improvement Area A fund the costs of
the Resource Monitoring Program as well as Preserve Operations and Maintenance
within the initial boundaries of the Otay Ranch Preserve. Special taxes levied within
Improvement Area B only fund the Resource Monitoring Program within that same area.
Special taxes levied within Improvement Area C pay for both Preserve Operations and
Maintenance and the Resource Monitoring Program consistent with the requirements of
the Otay Ranch Resource Management Plan Phases I and II plus a pro-rata share of
Administrative Expenses of CFD No 97-2. It is necessary to annex territory into
Improvement Area C ofCFD No. 97-2; as such boundaries may be modified from time to
time.
Territorv Proposed to be Annexed
The proposed boundaries of the territory proposed to be annexed to CFD No. 97-2
encompass the parcels located within the Otay Ranch Village Two, an Urban Village of
approximately eight-hundred and eleven (810.9) acres located south of Olympic Parkway
between TI.lture Heritage Road and La Media Road, and north of Wolf Canyon (see
Exhibit "B", Otay Ranch Village Two Vicinity Map). Otay Project, LP., Otay Ranch
7-2
01109/07, Item T
Page 3 of5
Investments, LP, Rancho Mesa, LP, the City of San Diego, and seventeen other entities
own the property within the proposed annexation. Otay Ranch Village Two is proposed
to contain approximately 1,310 single-family detached homes and 1,476 multi-family
units (365.60 residential acres), industrial areas (94.70 acres) and a commercial area
(12.50 acres), a public school (10.30 acres), three neighborhood parks (15.40 acres), one
community park (44.60 acres), and several Comm1.mity, Purpose Facility CCPF")
properties (6.30 acres). The Otay Landfill area located to the. southwest of the village will
be excluded from the armexation. The City Council previously approved an armexation
boundary map for this territory, identified as Annexation Map No.6, CFD No. 97-2
(Preserve Maintenance District), Improvement Area C. A reduced copy of the map is
presented in Exhibit "C".
Proposed S1;Jecial Tax
The rate and method of apportionment of the special taxes authorized to be levied within
the existing boundaries ofCFD No. 97-2 has five categories oftaxation, as follows:
1. Developed Parcels (Single Family and Multi-Family Residences) are taxed based
on the square footage of the stmcture.
2. Industrial and Commercial Parcels are taxed on the acreage of the parcel.
Developed Parcels are those parcels for which a building permit has been issued.
3. The Final Mapped properties, which include all single-family residential and
multi-family residential parcels and all industrial and commercial parcels for
which a building permit has not been issued, are taxed on acreage of the parcel.
4. Property not categorized as Developed or Final Mapped Property is taxed on
acreage of the parcel.
5. The Exempt Category includes all publicly ovvned parcels and Homeowner's
Association parcels.
The Rate and Method of Apportionment for Annexation No. 6 uses the same
methodology and maximum special tax rates as contained in the original rate and method
. of apportionment approved at the time of formation of Improvement Area C of CFD No.
97-2.
Collection of Taxes
At the beginning of each fiscal year the administrator of CFD No. 97-2 shall determine
the amount of the Special Tax Liability (budget plus reserve) of each Improvement Area.
Then, the special taxes will first be levied within each of the Improvement Areas on the
Developed Parcels therein to fund the Special Tax Liability for such Improvement Area.
Ifthis pool of funds is not enough to fi.md the Special Tax Liability for such Improvement
Area, as may be the case in the early years of development, CFD No. 97-2 will levy the
special tax on the vacant land within such Improvement Area starting with Final Mapped
Property. The buffer of having the vacant land covering any portion of the Special Tax
Liability not funded from special taxes levied on Developed Parcels within an
Improvement Area will disappear once the Improvement Area has been fully developed.
If the Special Tax Liability for any fiscal year for an Improvement Area is less than the
maximum special ta"\ authorized to be levied on the Developed Parcels within such
7-3
~
01/09/07, Item -:::;.
Page 4 of 5
Improvement Area, the actual rate of the special taxes to be levied on such Developed
Property in that specific year will be reduced accordingly.
Following is a brief discussion of some key issues regarding the "Rate and Method of
Apportionment (Ri\1A) of Special Taxes" proposed to be established for territory
proposed to be annexed to CFD No. 97-2, Improvement Areil C: (See Exhibit "A" for full
description ofRi\1A): .
The Maximum Special Tax Rates increase each year by a factor equal to the annual
percentage change in the Consumer Price Index.
The RMA provides that the annual budget for any year may include an amount deemed
necessary to maintain an adequate level of this operating reserve fund.
The maximum special tax rates are based on the original Rate and Method of
Apportionment of special taxes established for Improvement Area C of CFD No. 97-2
when Improvement Area C was formed. If the actual square footage of residential
development and/or the acreage of non-residential (industrial and commercial)
development within Improvement Area C meets or exceeds the projections on which the
special tax rates were based, the achlal special tax rate necessary to be levied annually
within Improvement Area C to fund the Special Tax Liability for Improvement Area C
may be less than the authorized maximum special tax.
Ap1;Jroved Maximum S1;Jecial Taxes
The approved maximum and actual special tax rates for fiscal year 2006/07 for
Improvement Area C ofCFD No. 97-2 are as follows:

Step 1: Detemaine the revenue which could be generated by Parcels assigned to Category I
by multiplying the Building Square Footage for Parcels classified as Residential Parcels by the
Maximum Special Tax per Building Square Foot for Resource Monitoring, and Preserve
Operations and Maintenance for Parcels and adding to that the maximum revenue which
could be generated by multiplying the total acres for Parcels classified as Non-Residential
Parcels by the Maximum Special Tax per Acre for Resource Monitoring and Preserve
Operations and Maintenance.
Step 2: If the total revenue as calculated in Step 1 is greater than the estimated Special Tax
Lability for Improvement Area C, reduce the Special Tax for each Parcel proportionately so
that the Special Tax levy for the Fiscal Year is equal to the Special Tax Lability for the Fiscal
Year.
Step 3: If the toral revenue as calculated in Step 1 is less than the Special Tax Lability for
Improvement i\rea C, a Special Tax shall be levied upon each Parcel \V~thin Improvement
Area C, classified as Category II. The Special Tax for Parcels assigned to Category II shall he
calculated as the lesser of:

determines that an error has occurred, the CFD Administrator may amend the amount of
the Special Tax levied on such Assessor's Parcel. If following such consultation and action, if

levied on an i\ssessor's Parcel identified as Special Case shall 1;>e the sum of the Maximum
Special Tax levies that may be levied on all Land L se Classes located on that Assessor's
Parcel. The CFD Administrator shall determine the allocation to each Land Use Class.
fu"INUAL ESCALATION OF MAxIMUM SPECIAL TA.X
The Maximum Special Tax as shown in the tables above that may be levied on each
Assessor's Parcel in Area C, Annexation No.6 (Otay Ranch Village Two), shall be increased
each Fiscal Year beginning in Fiscal Year 2007-2008 and thereafter by a factor equal to the
annual percentage change in the San Diego Metropolitan Area all Urban Consumer Poce
Index (All Items).
D. METHOD OF APPORTiONMENT OF THE SPECiAL
TAX
Commencing ,vith Fiscal Year 2006-2007, and for each following Fiscal Year, the Council
shall levy the Area C, Annexation No.6 (Otay Ranch Village Two), Special Tax at the rates
established pursuant to steps 1 through 4 below so that the amount of the Special Tax levied
equals the Special Tax Requaiement. The Special Tax shall be levied each Fiscal Year as
follows:
Step 1: Determine the revenue which could be generated by Parcels assigned to Category I
by multiplying the Building Square Footage for Parcels classified as Residential Parcels by the
Maximum Special Tax per Building Square Foot for Resource Monitoring, and Preserve
Operations and lvIaintenance for Parcels and adding to that the maximum revenue \,vruch
could be generated by multiplying the total acres for Parcels classified as Non-Residential
Parcels by the Maximum Special Tax per Acre for Resource Monitoring and Preserve
Operations and Maintenance.
Step 2: If the total revenue as calculated in Step 1 is greater than the estimated Special Tax
Liability for Improvement Area C, reduce the Special Tax for each Parcel proportionately so
that the Special Tax levy for the Fiscal Year is equal to the Special Tax Liability for the Fiscal
Year.
Step 3: If the total revenue as calculated in Step 1 is less than the Special Tax Liability for
Improvement J\rea C, a Spedal Tax shall be levied upon each Parcel within Improvement
Area C, classified as Category II. The Special Tax for Parcels assigned to Category II shall be
calculated as the lesser of:
The Special Tax Liability for Improvement Area C as detenrined by the
City, less the total revenue generated for all Parcels under Step 1 above,
divided by the total Acres for all Parcels "'~thin Improvement Area C
assigned to Category II,
RMuniFinancial
Page 7
7-31
OR
The Maximum Special Tax rate for Parcels assigned to Category II.
Step 4: If the total revenue as calculated in Step 1 and 3 is less than the Special Tax Liability,
for Improvement i\.rea C, a Special Tax shall be levied upon each Parcel within
Improvement Area C classified as Category III. The Special Tax for Parcels assigned the
Category III shall be calculated as the lesser of:
The Special Tax Liability for Improvement Area C as determined by the
City, less the total revenue generated for all Parcels under Step 1 and 3
above, divided by the total Acres for all Parcels within Improvement
Area C assigned to Category III,
OR
The Maximum Special Tax rate for Parcels assigned to Category III and
within Improvement Area C.
However, in the event it is determined that the Special Tax Liability for Improvement Area
C includes delinquent Special Taxes from Parcel in Category III from the prior Fiscal Yeax,
the City shall determine the amount of delinquent taxes that arose from such Paxcels and
identify the owner(s). The amount of delinquent Special Taxes, if any, that arose from the
applicable owner(s) shall first be divided by the total Category III Acres owned by such
owner( s) and collected from the applicable O\lmer( s) with the remaining portion of the
Special Tax Liability not related to delinquent Special Taxes to be collected from all Parcels
in Category III according to the procedure set forth in the preceding paragraph.
Notwithstanding the above, under no circumstances will the Special Tax levied against any
i\ssessor's Parcel of Residential Property or Multi-Family Property for which an occupancy
permit for private residential use has been issued be increased by mote than ten percent
annually up to the Maximum Special Tax as a consequence of delinquency or default by the
owner of any other Assessor's Parcel within Nea C of the CFD.
E. APPEALS
Any landowner or resident who pays the Special Tax and believes that the amount of the
Special Tax levied on their Assessor's Parcel is in error shall first consult with the CFD
AdmInistrator regarding such error. If following such consultation, the CFD Administrator
determines that an error has occurred, the CFD Administrator may amend the amount of
the Special To." levied on such Assessor's Parcel. If following such consultation and action, if
any, by the CFD Administrator, the landowner or resident believes such error still exists,
II MuniRnancial

persons.
F. MANNER OF COLLECTION
Special Taxes levied pursuant to Section D above shall be collected in the same manner and
at the same time as ordinary ad va/orem property taxes; provided, however, that the CFD
Administrator may directly bill the Special Tax, may collect Special Taxes at a different time
or in a diffetent manner if necessary to meet the fInancial obligations of Area C of the CFD
or as othenvise determined appropriate by the CFD Administrator.

OWNED LAND TO DEVELOP A CHARTER HIGH
SCHOOL AND ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH CENTER,

4/5THS VOTE: YES D NO 0
BACKGROUND ,
HTH Learning is a private nonprofit organization overseeing the development' and operation
of the facilities that house High Tech High schools. High Tech High is a charter high school
design model, emphasizing small school size, small classes, personalized project-based
learning, real-world immersion, and performance-based assessment. HTH Learning
currently operates a total of seven high, middle and elementary schools, with six in San
Diego and one school in northern California.
Representatives of HTH Learning approached City staff over one year ago to discuss
locating one or more High Tech High schools in Chula Vista. Staff and HTH Learning
believe that the best location for a campus is on City-owned land within the City's
University Park and Research Center (see Attachment I). Staff has negotiated a lease
agreement with HTH Learning to develop High Tech High Environmental and a related
environmental research center on an 8-acre site. The lease provides for ap option for HTH
Learning to develop High Tech Middle Environmental on approximately2.7 acres adjacent
to the high school. The lease agreement also acknowledges a potential second option that
will allow 8TH Learning and the City to negotiate the right to lease an additional six acres
to develop three additional High Tech High schools on a site to be determined within the
ultimate development of the University Park and Research Center (upRC).
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The Environmental Review Coordinator has reviewed the proposed activity for compliance
with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined that there is no
. 8-1

Page 2 of 4
possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment;
therefore, pursuant to Section l506l(b)(3) of the State CEQAGuidelines the activity is not
subject to CEQA. Thus, no environmental review is necessary.
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt the resolution approving a lease agreement with Hm Learning to lease 8 acres of
City-owned land to develop a charter high school and environmental research center, with
an option to develop a charter middle school on 2.7 acres, and authorizing the City Manager
to execute said agreement.
BOARDS/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
Not Applicable
DISCUSSION
High Tech High began in 2000 as a single charter high school launched by a coalition of San
Diego business leaders and educators concerned by the city's shortage of qualified high-tech
workers. It has evolved into a nationally recognized school development organization with
a growing portfolio of innovative charter schools that are designed to ensure that all students
graduate well prepared for college, work, and citizenship. High Tech High creates a
personalized, project-based learning environment where students are known well and
challenged to meet high expectations.
The proposed lease agreement proposal will allow the development of an environmentally
focused high school and related environmental research facility on an eight-acre site. The
lease will be for an initial term of 50 years, with two 25-year options for the nominal rate
of $1 per year. The agreement requires HTH Learning to receive all necessary approvals
from the City and all other appropriate agencies, including, but not limited to a
Conditional Use Permit (CUP). The approval of the lease agreement does not approve
the project itself. The City retains its sole and unfettered discretion to approve or
disapprove any future discretionary actions that may come before the City. If HTH
Learning fails to get all necessary approvals, the lease will become null and void.
The lease agreement also allows for one additional option, which will allow for an
environmentally focused middle school on approximately 2.7 acres directly east of the
high school site. The lease also acknowledges the desire of the High Tech High Learning
to potentially pursue a second option to negotiate for the development of up to three
additional schools on a maximum of six acres within the ultimate development of the
City's UPRC project. The options can only be exercised once High Tech High
demonstrates that they have the fmancial capacity and student demand to build and
operate the additional schools.
It is anticipated that the first option would be exercised within the next one to two years.
When completed, the high and middle schools will have approximately 900 students and
65 faculty and staff. The second option is a long-term proposal, and is not contemplated
for approximately three-six years.

Page 3 of 4
High Tech High Environmental (HTHE) and High Tech Middle Environmental (HTME)
will be small, academically rigorous, public charter schools based on the HTH design
principals of personalization, adult-world connection, and common intellectual mission.
The primary goals of HTHE and HTME will be to:
. Provide students with relevant academic and workplace skills, preparing graduates for
rewarding lives in an increasingly technological and global society.
. Increase the number of low-income and minority students who succeed in high school
and postsecondary education and who become productive members and leaders in the
high-technology industry.
The focus on global environmental issues at HTHE and HTME will be reflected not only in
the curriculum of each school, but also in the design and function of the school facilities.
The design will utilize two green building guides to benchmark the "green-ness" of the High
Tech High schools. The two green building guides to be used as benchmarks are the US
Green Building Council's LEED rating system and the Collaborative for the High
Performance Schools Best Practices System. Each of these systems incorporates sustainable
products, water efficiency, energy and atmosphere, materials and resources and indoor air
quality. It has been proposed that the school be entirely energy autonomous and serve as a
paragon for environmental education with the hope that the school will receive the highest
possible certification on the LEED rating system.
HTHE and HTME will be located on City-owned land within the University Park and
Research Center. The proposed schools' academic mission and research facilities will
provide future collaboration and research opportunities with the National Energy Center for
Sustainable Communities, which will also be located at the UPRC, as well as future
academic partners within the campus. The proposal by High Tech High is strategically
aligned with the goals and objectives of the UPRC and the City of Chula Vista, and will
enhance the efforts of the City to develop the UPRC. Staff has also worked with the
Planning Department and project consultants to ensure the proposed site will not preclude or
interfere with the overall development of the UPRC. The lease agreement also requires
HTH to cooperate with the City and its academic partners in all future planning and
development of the UPRC.
DECISION MAKER CONFLICT
Staff has reviewed the property holdings of the City Council and has found no property
holdings within 500 feet of the boundaries of the property which is the subject of this action.

FISCAL IMP ACT
The proposed project will not have an impact on the City's General Fund. As a result of the
lease agreement, the applicant has made a deposit of approximately $8,400 to cover staff
time for the processing of the CUP and related environmental review for their proposal. The
nominal lease rate proposed by staff is $1 per year. High Tech High Learning will be
responsible for all c<:,sts associated with the development and'maintenance of their facility.
The lease structure will allow the City to retain long-term ownership and control of the
property. The lease structure is consistent with the anticipated financial structure of the
entire UPRC project.

Exhibit A, ETE Learning & C~ty of Chula Vista Lease
Agreement
Exhibit A: High Tech High University Park Development Plan
Overview
The proposed High Tech High University Park Campus includes development of two HTH schools and a
research center on approximately 10 acres. In Phase One (consisting of the original Demised Premises), an
environmentally-focused high school and research center will be developed on approximately eight (8) acres.
Phase Two (consisting of the First Expansion Area) will add a second HTH school on an additional adjacent
two (2) acres. There is the potential to develop up to three additional HTH schools, or two schools and a
school-related facility such as a performing arts center, gymnasium, .or a thematically-related learning
laboratory, on an additional six acres located within the ultimate development of the University Park and
Research Center.
Each school building will consist of classrooms, specialty labs, administration offices, a commons/dining area,
and supportlbuilding core facilities. Outside areas may include learning patios, plazas, walkways, dining
terraces, play yards including half basketball courts, green space, areas for drop off and pick-up, and parking
spaces for cars and bicycles. Lessee initially plans to operate each of the planned schools during the peak
period ofapproximately 8:30 AM to 4:00 PM, though the facilities will be used by faculty, staff, students, and
others before and after school hours and often on weekends and holidays as well. The start and end times for
the different schools may be staggered to minimi7e traffic congestion around drop-off andpick~up times.
Ancillary activities and programs such as, but not limited to, fundraising, athletic, preschool, childcare, adult
education, research, performing arts, and community events may take place on the campus before, during, or
after regular school hours and on weekends and holidays as well. The completed project will include significant
grading, landscaping, lighting, signage, pedestrian pathways, fencing, and retaining walls.
Parking and Allowable Dailv Trios (AnTs):
Lessee plans to meet the minimum requirements set forth in the Chula Vista Municipal Code for on-site
parking. AnTs assigned to the 10 acre property must be sufficient to meet the requirements for the sizes and
types of schools that Lessee develops on the campus.

N/A
RECOMMENDATION
That Council amend the Chula Vista Municipal Code to prohibit smoking within fifty
(5) feet of the entrance to any eating establishment, and to make other revisions as
necessary to make the chapter provisions consistent.
BOARDS/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
N/A
DISCUSSION
The Chula Vista Municipal Code, Chapter 8.22 regulates smoking in public places and
places of employment. The regulations include, but are not limited to, retail stores, retail
service establishments, theatres, educational facilities, and restaurants. In June 2006,
Council adopted Ordinance Number 3034, which extended the prohibition on smoking in
the indoor areas of restaurants to include the outdoor seating areas of restaurants. In
October 2006, Council adopted Ordinance Number 3046, which added a provision
prohibiting smoking in City parks.

.
Date, !tem_
Page 2 0[2
During discussions at these meetings, Councilmember Castenada requested that the City
Attorney bring forward an additional amendment to the Chapter that would prohibit
smoking within fifty (50) feet of any entrance to an eating establishment.
Additionally, as a result of the amendments, a number of clerical changes need to be
made. Section 8.22.030 has been renumbered to accommodate the additional
prohibitions. The changes have also made some of the existing language obsolete or
redundant so it has been removed.
Finally, because state law has addressed some issues not addressed by the City's
ordinance, changes have been made to conform with state law.
DECISION MAKER CONFLICT
Staff has reviewed the decision contemplated by this action and has determined that it is
not site specific and consequently the 500-foot rule found in California Code of
Regulations section 1 8704.2(a)(l) is not applicable to this decision.
FISCAL IMPACT
None.

SCOPE OF WORK: INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL REVIEW
This Scope of Work for an Independent Financial Review (Review) is intended to provide a
baseline assessment of the current and medium term financial health of the City of Chula Vista
and its Redevelopment Agency, particularly in assessing current implications of the past use of
financial resources (e.g., MOUs, use of redevelopment funds), the current financial direction, and
recommended course changes in light of debt, obligations, and expenditure levels relative to
revenue sources that include but are not limited to fees, property and sales tax, tax increment,
and developer impact fees.
The City's accounting procedures have been audited and are not a subject of this Review. If,
however, during the course of the Review, financial issues of accounting procedures relative to
the City's financial health are discovered, ltlese shall be identified.
The Review should use existing financial materials and reports provided by the City (including,
but not limited to, three years of Comprehensive Annual Financial Reports (CAFRs), audits,
budgets and mid-period reviews, bond statements, state mandated annual redevelopment reports
and any financial forecasts and assessments performed by staff or consultants) to prepare an
assessment of the City's current financial condition and a five-year forecast.
Desired results:
. A summary of the current approach used by the City in managing its finances;
. A review of the current state of City's financial condition relative to trends in revenues and
expenditures, use o/debt, development and demographic changes, sufficiency of
reserves, and identify opportunities and threats;
. A determination of and focus on the most pressing factors on the City's financial
condition, to include best case, worst case, and most likely scenarios for the operating
budget over a five or ten-year period
. A discussion of the financial implications of current and additional support for continued
residential and commercial development in newer areas and in supporting projects such
as the bayfront and urban core;
. A review of capital, infrastructure, and maintenance commitments and spending;
. A review of the past and current use and capability of tax increment financing as a means
of promoting redevelopment;
. An assessment of the financial implications of unfunded retirement liability; and
. Recommendations for strengthening Chula Vista's financial condition with respect to long
term sustainability.
The finished product should provide the City Council, City staff and the incoming City Manager
with a baseline assessment of how the City of Chula Vista is positioned financially for the present
and near future. A fiscal forecast of five to ten years, forecasting revenues and expenditures and
balancing them against the last year (e.g., year 2012) of the forecast should reflect the
anticipated facilities and major expenditures during the five- and ten-year periods.
Products:
. Final report with an executive summary, key findings, conclusions, and
2
) I B-1
recommendations in MS Word and/or Excel format
. Oral presentation of findings and recommendations with accompanying graphics suitable
for presentation (e.g., PowerPoint) to the City Council and to the community in a public
meeting.
City staff are committed to being immediately available to the reviewer/s and responsive to
reviewer/s' requests for information. Documents including the CAFRs, Redevelopment Agency
financial statements, quarterly reports, rating agency reports, draft,form for infrastructure needs,
and bond documents are currentiy being assembled in a single location for the Review.
The consultant's point of contact is City Treasurer Maria Kachadoorian,
m kachadoorian@ci.chula-vista.ca.us.
Response to this scope of work shall be received by the City on or before January 16, 2007 at
5:00 PM.
Duration of project: 45 - 60 days
Estimated cost, including expenses: $30,000
The City reserves the right further to negotiate the proposed work scope and/or method and
amount of compensation.

Coastal Commission Appointment
Memorandum
Date: January 8, 2006
To: Mayor Cox, Councilmembers McCann, and Rindone
Fr: Councilmember Rudy Ramirez
Re: Coastal Commission Appointment
As you are probably aware, our colleague Steve Castaneda has been nominated
by the League of California Cities for an appointment to the California
Coastal Commission.
Fonner Mayor Steve Padillals resignation has created an opening for the JSan
Diego CoastaP position 011 the Commission, an appointment that will be made
by the Speaker of the Califomia State Assembly, Fabian Nunez.
Like you, I have been concerned about our city1s loss of influence on this
important body at a time when so many critical decisions are upcoming
concerning the development of the Chula Vista Bayfront and the power plant
-- issues of great importance to our city1s future.
Steve Castaneda's appointment would protect and maintain our city's voice on
this important commission at this critical time.
For this reason, I suggest we formalize our support for Steve's appointment
with a vote, execute a letter of support from the entire city council to the
Speaker and direct our city.ls lobbyist in Sacramento to provide advice and
assistance in support of the appointment.
Thank you for your consideration.

GovernOl' Arnold Schwarzenegger
2007 State of the State Address
January 9, 2007
LieLltenant Oovernor Oaramendi, Speaker Nunez, Senate Leader Perata, my felJow servants of the
people, 1:IIJjes und gentlemen... I am honored to stand here once again.
J wanl to thank the legisluture, as J did in my Inauguroll, for putting the people above politics last
year--;U1 election year. The federal government was paralyzed by gridlock and games. But you here
in this chamber acted on infrastructure, the minimum wage, prescription drug costs and th~
redllction l)f greenhouse gllses in Ollr ~tmosphere.. Whal this said to the people is: we are not
waiting for politics, We ore not waiting for Ollr' problems to get worse. We are not waiting for the
federal government, We ure not waiti"g--period. Because, the future does "ot waH.
! bc:lieve that together not only can we lead CaliFornia into the future...we can show the nation and
the world how to get the,'e. We can do this' because we have the economJc strength, the population,
the technological force of a nation-state. We are the modem equjvalecnt of the ancient city statQ1i of
Athens nnd Sparm. California has the ideas of Athens and the power of Sparta.
As YOLl know, California, if a nation, would be the sixth largest economy in the world. But it gOes
so much beyond that, Acco,'ding to The Economist magazine, California is home to three of the top
six univerSities in the world. Califomin has more Nobel Laureates, more scIentists, mate engineers
more researchers, more high-Tech companies than any other state. We are responsible for one of
every rour U.S, paten IS. We account for one of every five U.S. technology jobs, We attract almost
halF of ull U,S, venture capital. which funds the ideas and industriel! of the future. California Jeads
the nation in biotechnology, We lead th~ nalion in nanotechnology, We lead the nation in medical
technology, WI;. lead the nmion in infonnation technology, We will.oon be the recognized leader
in cleun technology,
Worldwide. clean-tech illYestments are up 50 percent in the first nine months of last year alone.
Calif01'l1iu is spurring clean technology by the environm~ntal standards we are setting. QUI'
innov:\fion, our science, our knowledge, our creativity is un-equalled on the face of the earth. The
2l~\ cent\I]'y cun be the Golden Century For the Golden State.
I huve asked nlyself, what must we do in this chamber 10 help fulfil1 this future7 It starts very
simply. We can .tort by working together.
USI.lally wilen" goyemor gJVC:; Ilis SLate of the Slale Address, he tolks about his vision. This year!
wunt to talk abouL "our" VJSlon. beCIIUSe'l think we illl want the same thing for Californians.
Let me lell you UDOlll some of [he ideas of aliI' legislative leaders. Speaker Nunez has made
reseul'Ch into alle111,llive energy and transportalion fuels a top pJiority this year. Speaker Nunez, I
will work with you.

A lOp priority for Senate Leader PenHa is to _!'t:ate a world-class w~ter transit system in the Bay
are. that could m.inlsin vital trnnsportmian links after an earthquake 01' other disaster. Senator
Pemla, r will work with you.
RepubliCM leaders in both the Senate anel the Assembly have made debt reduction a.nd buiJding
water srontge II,eil" lop prio';ti.s tilis year. Senator Ackerman, Assembly Leader Villines, I wjJj
work with yOtl.
Let me explain some of the other areas where we can come togethenhis year, In November, the
people I1ppl"oved the first phase of infrastructure bonds necessary to rebuild our Stale. .
Dllring u speech ar the Pat Brown Institute, I heard Senator Ferats say that the people of California
expect to see the construction cmnes right away. They want to see action. Senator, I agree
Ilbsolutely, We, the elected leaders, mtlst authorize the cranes, the bulldozers, the cement trucks to
begin thdr work without delay.
This is !l les! for those of us in this chamber in another way. wm the process turn into s porkfest as
it did In Wushington with ~11 the earmarks and the backroom deals? Or, when we have allocued the
'pending, will tha people say, ''They spenL our money wisely?" Yel this ia more than Just about the
people's money. [r is about the people's trust. Let os not disappoint them.
We must ~dso be good stewards, because we must go back to the people for permission to build
mOre and finish the job. The building has just begun. One year sgo I unveiled the 200 billion dollar
plan that pl'cpal'ed CaHfon)ia for the n6X! ten years. We are a big statc and We have big needs. And
we made!l big down payment. But the job is not finished,
Same are'ls. such as prisons and water storage weren't included. And we still have mare roads to
build, mar. schools to construct, more univcl'sHies 10 equip to keep up with the future, As I said IllS!
YMI', C.lli Fomi II 's popu laLion is expected to incTCllSe by as much as 30 percent over the next 20
y.ara. Thut is the equivalent of adding three new cities the size of Los Angcles'. We have to
prepare for that growth.
So this year we muSt invest in five infrastructure areaa in particular --public safety, water supply,
tmnsporcution. ed\lc~tipn and diSH~ter pl'eparcdnes~.
Let me give you" couple of examples why we must act. Public safety is the first priority of
'govemmel1!. Our p,'isons al'e in clisis. We have inherited a problem that Wi\S put off year after year.
La" yeur [called a speciul session LO address the crisis. ThaI session was nOt successful, sa I
declared a state of emergency. Tt is sti II an emcrgcney. Our prison system is a powder keg. It poses
a danger [0 pJisoners, a danger to officers... and a danger to the weIJ-bei!1g of the public jf -. as the
federal courts have (hrentened -, Vie are fOrced to release prisoners because of oVercrowding, We
hal'e thousands of prisoners housed in gymnasiums, TV roams, dining rooms, hallways, ~nywhere
there is a space. 172,000 pJisoners in facilities designed to hold about 100,000. That is a danger and
u dj5gruc~.

.
Here are the coul1-ordered choices we face: We build more prisons or We releas8 criminals, We :
build more prisons or the court takes money from education and health care and builds the prisons
itself. [am not in favor of releusing criminals. I am not in favor of taking money from classrooms
and emergency rooms to build cells. Where do you stand? We must act. And we must act this year.
Which is why on Dece'mber 21st. I stood with Senator Gloria Romero and Senator George RUflner
and Assemblyman Greg Aghazarian to introduce comprehensive prison reform. We need sjustice
system thm's Fair, that's tough and that offers hope for those who can still turn their lives around,
Let me give unotllel' infrastruct'ure e!lumple. The number of high technology companies we have. in
Cal/fomia is related to how many brilliant scientists we have in our universities...which in turn is
related to how many smart undergraduates we have", which is reJated to the number of high school
swdents who graduate... and so on down through the gtades. That small child with the sticky hands
starting the first day of kindel'sarten is the foundation of California's economic pOwer and
learluship.
We must invest in education. 1t's not just how much money we spend but also how WI:' spend it. I
have Seen the need with my own eyes as I've toured schools across the state. I went to a school
with bed sheets on the windows rather than blindS, [went to a school that was,so overcrowded the
gyms locker-room was used for teaching space,
The education bond thai passed j.n November builds 10,000 ntlW classrooms and renovates 38.000
more, but thot gets us only through the next two years. We need to b1.lild for the fmure.
, This year J ask you to invest in i5,OOOmore classrooms and renovate 40.000 more. Yet we must
build nO! only structures, but accounlabili ty and transparency into our education system. As a step
toward the day when parents wi 11 have I'eal choice in OUr public education system where to send
their children. we should prdvide parl:'nts With relevant. accessible informati.on. not bury it in thl:'
bureaucracy. If you can get Information about a car online, why can't you get information about
your local schoo! online? What percentage of money goes into the classroom? Does the school
. offer'lfter-school programs, music. art, PE programs? What is the graduation rate? The drop-out
mle'! You cannot e...ily get this infQI1Tl6tion today.
So how can a school or a school district be held accountable? I want to work with the legislature to
make this information readily available and u~er-friendly for the parePts so that they oan make '
intelligent choices about their child's school.
We must also continue to reinvigorate career tech education, support quality charter schools and
find innovHtive solutions to the teacher shortag.. 1 will not discuss all of our Infrastructure .
proposals this evening. but I want to say one final thing about this topic. Rebuilding California is
nUl it burden. 'le is nOl B chore. it is a pi;vilege. It is a privilege to be abie to help this stale reach its
full potential. It is a privilege to be able to help future generations fulfili their promise. And when
[hey look back, they will see you ill this room, and they will be grateful for what you have done.
Now, in addition to addressing our infrastructure last year, the legislature joined with me in passing
tho histOlic global wa"ming measure that caps greenhouse gas emissions_

We l1ear SO milch abollt climate change. One area where we definitely need the climate to change;s
Ine nutional government's altitude towllrd global Wanning. It would not act so California did,
California has taken the Jeaderahip in' moving the entire country beyond debate and denial... to
action. As Califomia goes, so goes the rest of the naqon.
I tlsk you to appropriate the funds to implement this global warming legislation, so that we can
become pl1rl of the world market thul is.already trading eredits for the reduclion of grecnhouse
g.ses.
I also Ilsk you.tO work witn me on anotherenvironmentaJ fil1;[. I propose that CalifornIa be the first
in the world to develop a Jow carbon fuel standard that leads us away from fossil fllels. And let us
use the freedom and flexibility of the market to accompJish it. Let us blaze the way, for the U.S.,
for China and for the rest of the world. Our cars have been running on dirty fuel for roo long. Our
country has been dependent On foreign 0;.1 fonoo long.
I ask you 10 Set. in mOlion the means to free ourselves from oil Bnd from OPEC.
r ask you to encollrage the free' market to overthrow the old order.
California has the muscle to bring about such cha11ge. I say Use it.
When I first cume here in 1968, one of the first things I did was to ask people where I couJd get
health insurance because) knew thp[, as an athlete, Injuries Can happen. Here is the ironic thing
about health Care today. California's medical care. its medical knowledge, it. medical technology is
as strong and vibrant as a bodybuilder. Yet OUr health care system itself is a sick old man.
You know the reasons --rising costs, Jack of coverage .. nearly 6,5 million Californillt18 have no
insurance at all. Recently 1 visited California Hospital Medical Cent~rin downtown Los Ange1es.
LaSI year, the uninsured people who came ro the emergency room left behind 60 milIion dona~ in
unpaid bills. That's in one hospital. Multiply that by the number of hospitals in CnJifol'l1ia, and the
!UnOllnl ''\Jns into ihe biJlions. Ouess who's paying for aWthis? You and me and aU of us who are
lucky enough to have coverage. That's who pays.
The people with insurance pay'a hidden tax t~rough higher deductibles, hjgherco~ts, higher
erelt1iums, higher copuy..
ihis y!UI' we must take aClion On heallh Care. Y!Slerday t announced my proposal. I know you also
hllve proposals. I have always said you can never have roo many ideas. So all ideas, regardless of
origin. are still On the tabl.. I do believe. however. that the ultimate answer will come from the
plinciple of Sh'lred responsibility --by the govemmenl. by employers. by health plans, by doctors.
oy hospitals and by the individual.
In Ihe past. health care l'eforl11 was always deM on arrival. Bllt Ihis ycar you can fee! something
dil'i'erenl in the tilr. You ctin I'eellhe energy, t~e mo",ont\lm. the desire for action. YOII can feci that
the lime is light. Both leadel'S have said to me. "We will gel this don.:' Ladies and gentlemen, we

will get this done, Califbmia is going to lead the mition in breaking new ground to meet the health
care needs of its people,
Tomorrow, I will outline my budget. which is balanced and which fully funds education. When I
first became governor, we had an operating deficit of $16.5 billion. I said ihat through discipline
and through new revenues that flow from economic !:rowth. we would reduce the deficit over ~me.
Last year. we got it down to $4 billion. To'morrow, I will propose a budgellhal will dremeticsJIy
reduce this deficit even furthe,'.
Now here is the great thing. We have mnde this progress without raising taxeS. We have reduced
the deficit, not by burdening the people and our businesses, but by encouraging economic growth.
This year California has the highest revenues in its history and the lowest unemployment rate in 30
yenr!i. Ladies and gentlemen, the state of our stale is strong.
We slill have very difficult choices to make on the budget, and I am eager to work with you on
the!Je choices, I am not asking you notto be a Republican or not to be a Democral or to give tip
your principles. I am asking you to be Californians and to work OUI a solutiot'l that is the best
possible answer to the ch~llenges we face. As long as we recognize some progress toward OUT
individual visjons - whether Republican or Democrat ..this should.allow us the freedom to reach a
budge I agreement and to go forward together.
One Inst item. I again this year raise the issue of poljtical reform. CaJjfomia politics is II centrifuge
that fOrces VOters. policies and parties away from the center. The centrifuge is powered by tile way
our legislative unci congressional distriCTS are drawn. They are drawn to eliminate party
competition.. They work against the mains\rCam, which is where most Californians are. Currently,
ours is nOt a system of the people, by the peopl~ and for the people. It is a system of the p!l~jes. by
the parties, f01. the pLlrties.
In the past three electhin cycles. only 4- of California's 459 congressional and legislative seats
changed hands. There was more turnover in tl1e Hapsburg monarchy than the California legislature.
1 ask you to work with me to create an independent commission to fi)l. a political system that has
become petrified by self-interest. California certainly is not alone in this. No state Ie.gislature in
U.S. hislory has put s redistricting reform on the ballot. California can be the leader.
You wili not benefit pOlitically from this. I will not benefit politically from this. But the peo-plc wHl
benMit from this, 1 ask you to work with me to do the right thing for the. people.
Let me close with this thought. We accomplished historic things last yellI'. Let us make this year
hislOlic as well. I k~ow thul what I have proposed is an ambitious agenda. I heard that last year and
the year before thot and the year before that Yes. ii's an ambitious agenda, but we must be
ambilious to got Califol11ia to the future. We are addl'Ossing needs that have been ignored for
decades. This is important work. It is hard, heavy work. What we are doing relates directly to the
kind of stllte this will be in ten or twenty years. But Is this not what governmenl should be doing?

for too long Californians ju.t stared at this mou~tain called the future. We couldn't climb it becau$O
our cun-em problems blocked the path. We couldn't climb it because it was politioalIy too Steep_ We
couldn't climb it because we couldn't agroe o~ the route that takes us Ihere. But !ust year, we made
the decisio~. we lOok a deep breath and We began our ascent. Working together we can scale that
mountain. we can .tand On tOp ofil. And One day 1'1" will look down from it and say to ourselves,
look how far we've come, look where we are, Jook what we've accomplished for the people. Ladies

I. Air RepOrt under-estimates impacts because it is based upon faultv traffic report savinI!
Itome DepOt will have less traffic than K-Mart and restaurant. They counted traffic at H-
Street store on Tues, Wed. and Thurs. week before Thanksgiving in 2005 ignoring that store has
tnost customers weekends. Using H-Street 6,020 ADT for weekday and ratio-adjusted Long
Beach 8,500 to 8,853 for weekend one gets an expected weekly average of 6.829 ADT.

~Jlincs Long Beach's environmental impact report estimated the project would add
5.780 vehicles on weekdays and 8,500 on weekend days to already busy roads leading
to the proposed Home Depot. (This is lower than most EIR's that use 60/1,OOOsf, which
would come to 7,740 ADT)
2. Noise repOrt admits 55 decibel standard for single familv and 10PM-7AM night
for multi-familv cannot be met Comments also suggest possibility of a tunnel
effect with noise walls and building. 59 decibels at second story 50 feet awav was
best thev could do for lumber off loading. This is not aood enough. To maintain
this distance all trucks. lumber and forklifts would have to stav within 15 feet of
the wall of the building. Thev also sav the ambient noise is 61 decibels because
500 cars pass per hour on Moss during rush hour. The traffic studv shows no
where near that amount counted on Moss. An internet search shows noise is a
persistent problem:
There is no analvsis on light impacts. although this appears to be an issue
elsewhere:

MEMORANDUM/ORGANIZATIONAL REFORMS FOR THE eVRe
Memorandum

Fr: Councilman Rudy Ramirez
Re: Organizational refDrlns for the Chula Vista Redevelopment Corporation
Because we share a vision for a vibrant redevelopment of West Chula Vista, I
believe we should consid,-r changes to the decision-making process and
composition of the board of the Cbu]a Vista Redevelopment Corporation.
Changes to the composition and structure ofthe board could: Increase the
board's independence frolll both the City Council and city stafDepoliticize
the process by removing ejected officials from the membership: and,Improve
efficiency by eliminating duplication and streamlining the process.
In my view, the composition of the board should be balanced with four
representatives of community-oriented groups those who have traditionally
advocated 'community character' and a cautious approach to redevelopment --
and four members from business-oriented groups and individuals eager to
bring the economic benefits of redevelopment to our city.
... Community oriented members could include representatives of each of the
major local civic organizations and area planning groups -- Southwest Civic
Association, Northwest Civic Association and Crossroads 11 and others
concerned with harmonizing the impacts of redevelopment with existing
neighborhoods.
... Development related interests could include an attorney with expertise in
development related issues, other industry experts and representatives of
local business organizations.
By having both perspectives equally represented, and an even number of total
members on the board, we can encourage compromise and consensus.
It would be my hope that such a board could resolve many contentious issues
and reach consensus on an Urban Core Specific Plan and important
redevelopment proposals prior to them coming before the City Council.
By incorporating these perspectives and interests traditionally held by the
RAC and existing CYRC board in to a new, reconstituted CVRC board, we could
eliminate the necessity for RAC and the existing CVRC board, thereby
streamlining approval of redevelopment proposals on which a consensus has
been formed.
It is my hope that we can have these issue resolved prior to a new City
Manager taking their position. '
These are my initial ideas for restructuring and streamlining the decision
making process for redevelopment proposals and the UCSP and are certainly a
'work in progress'. I look forward to hearing your ideas for improving the
efficiency and independence of the process by which our city considers
redevelopment proposals and to seeing the recommendations that your
subcommittee is preparing. I look forward to discussing these issues
further at an upcoming public meeting.
