'l 'T T
City Council Meeting - 4 - September 28, 1982
6. Public Hearing Consideration of revisions to the master fee
schedule for fees related to land development (City
Manager)
As a result of the FY1982-83 budget process and staff's presentation to the
City Council of the 3-year financial plan, the full-cost recovery fees for
services was identified as a revenue producing alternative which Council
directed staff to further investigate. The concept of a full-cost recovery is
not only an attempt to recover all associated costs related to a service, but
is an effort to establish a payment policy of relating the ultimate service
benefit to the direct recipient. Staff has reviewed the City's fees for
services by using a full-cost recovery formula and has subsequently reviewed
each fee to determine where the benefit lies. As a resul t, adjusted fees are
proposed at either full-cost recovery or the most justified rate of recovery.
Mayor Cox announced that the Council held a workshop on this item last
Thursday. The intent of the Council is to continue this public hearing until
the Chamber of Conmnerce and other organizations have had time to give some
response to the matter.
Mr. Craig Beam, Attorney, 225 Broadway, San Diego stated that in processing
development plans, he would like to see the fee schedule cover the cost of
going to outside consultants and passing the cost onto the proponents or
someone who can be legitimately charged for that service. Mr. Beam felt the
staff should have the flexibility of hiring consultants when faced with large,
complex or exceptional projects.
Teresa McTighe, 435 Camino del Rio South, San Diego, representing the
Construction Industry Federation presented the Council with a letter and fee
comparison charts stating that she will be working with the City staff to come
up with mutually acceptable fees.
MSUC {Scott/Malcolm} to continue the public hearing until October 19.
CONSENT CALENDAR
MSUC (McCandliss/Scott) to approve the Consent calendar.

Buen Tiempo Drive and Crest Drive (City Engineer)

15. Resolution 11024 Authorizing $4800 to reimburse Open Space District
No. 4 funds (Director of Parks and Recreation)
During the rainy season this past winter, a brow ditch between Palm Drive and
Greenwood Place in open space ~4 was broken up allowing water to flow under
the ditch causing problems to the slopes. The City contracted with a private
company to regunite the brow ditch at a cost of $4800 and assessed it against
the district. City forces also provided equipment and personnel to improve
the area in the amount of $6,000 which was NOT assessed to the district. The
Homeowners Association felt it was the~ity's obligation to pay for
reconstruction because the ditch drained water from the upper street,
Greenwood Place. The Council concurred and authorized payment to the District
in the amount of $4800.
Councilman Malcolm stated he would be voting against this resolution as he
does not feel the authorization is justified inasmuch as the drainage did come
from the open space area and should be attributed to the District.
RESOLUTION OFFERED BY COUNCILMAN MOORE, the reading of the text was waived,
passed and approved by the following vote to wit:
AYES: Moore, McCandliss, Scott, Cox
NOES: Malcolm
ABSENT: None
A recess 8:55 to 9:05 p.m.

selecting cardroom operators be eliminated; 3) all the cardrooms to stay open
until 2:00 a.m.; 4) all the cardrooms to be open on Sunday from lO:O0 a.m. to
2:00 a.m.; 5) authorize the playing of the card game Panguingue; and 6) raise
the fees per table from $30 per month to $60 per month.
9/28/82
City Council Meeting - 8 - September 28, 1982
Director of Public Safety Winters asked that a further amendment be put into
the ordinance in Section 5.20.080 which has to do with identification badges.
Presently, employee badges are worn at all times when on duty and he would
like to have this changed to state "every manager and employee of a cardroom
licensed according to the provisions of this Chapter shall at all times when
~a ~ such cardrooms wear an identification badge containing his
p age, address and description of such individual." Mr. Winters
explained that this would alert the customers of any employee who would be
playing at the tables.
Speaking in support of the ordinance were Mr. R. A. Lytle, 511 Otis Street,
Chula Vista; Ms. Linda Roby, 4071 Malasta Drive, San Diego; Mr. Jerry Blair,
231 Fifth Avenue, Chula Vista; and Mr. Ralph J. Ocheske, 629 Gretchen Road,
Chula Vista. In summary their comments were:
l) Many prominent people in the City play in cardrooms.
2) They take exception that cardroom players are "second class citizens."
3) There are people who prefer to play cards on Sundays rather than watch
ball games.
4) All the people that are in cardrooms are over 21 years of age.
5) If allowed to play on Sunday the employment would increase.
6) The cardroom operators should have the same opportunity for their business
as other businesses in the City and be allowed to stay open later and on
Sunday.
7) If the bars can be open on Sunday, the cardrooms should be able to be open.
Speaking against the ordinance was Terry Cloper, 860D Woodlawn Avenue, Chula
Vista. He discussed the "free enterprise system" prevalent in this country
commenting that the number of cardrooms should not be limited to just two or
three; that the 2:00 a.m. and Sunday opening would only mean additional police
protection which would cost the City more money; allowing the panguingue game
would only bring in people from outside the City; reducing the licenses
granted for cardrooms would be reducing the revenues that the City could
generate.
Mayor Cox noted the written communications received on this item and the
petition signed by 404 signatures supporting the 2:00 a.m. closing, the Sunday
opening, and the game of panguingue.
Council discussion followed regarding the current ordinance and the compari son
of the changes made in the new ordinance. Councilman Scott stated that he
could see no reason to change the present ordinance. Councilman Malcolm
agreed but felt the I.D. badge issue should be put into the current ordinance.

by the City Engineer on the same matter. The City Engineer has submitted a
report responding to the questions,
Mr. Robert Ghiloni, 304 East Oneida Street, Chula Vista responded to the
staff's answers to his lO questions stating that there was "misinformation"
given to the Council and that he finds some of the answers "way out of line."
City Engineer Lippitt explained that the drainage problem on Mr. Ghiloni's
property would be cleared up once the Starlight Center construction is
c ompl eted.
Mr. Frank Ferreria, 270 Bonita Glen Drive, Chula Vista stated that Mr. Ghiloni
is one of his employees. He enticed Mr. Ghiloni to move out here in
California offering him this property on which to build his home.
Mr. Ferreria stated that there is a question now of his integrity in this
matter which he would like to have cleared up. He felt that the staff did not
go back far enough in their research to the answers on Mr. Ghiloni's
questions, that they went back lO ten years and should have gone back 12 or 13
years. Mr. Ferreria referred to a number of documents which he had and
expl ai ned the background of the enti re matter of the drainage problem
commenting that the staff's answers and investigation of this matter was
perhaps handled "loosely" and that the whole element should have been put into
perspective.
MSUC (Cox/Moore) to direct staff to come back with a report regarding the
drainage on Mr. Ghiloni's property upon completion of the Starlight Center
development.

25. COUNCIL COMMENTS
a. Discussion on Having a Public Hearing on SANDER
Council discussion ensued regarding the matter of holding public hearings on
the SANDER project. Councilman Scott felt there would be no reason to have a
public hearing, that the Council has already decided to let the people vote on
the issue. If anything, Councilman Scott stated the Council can perhaps hold
a public hearing on the EIR. If they wish to hold public hearings on the
entire matter, he suggested they rescind their action directing an election
vote. Councilman Moore said he would support public hearings on the matter
because he is very much concerned about "due process," He feels all of the
information should be presented to the Council by experts in this field
allowing the Council and the public to be educated on the process, weighing
all of the pros and cons. Mayor Cox agreed stating that at the public hearing
the Council can then determine whether or not they want it to go to a vote of
the people. Councilwoman McCandliss expressed her concern that the EIR would
just address the concerns and not whether or not the project would be a viable
one. Councilman Malcolm said he agrees with the concept of SANDER, however,
he knows that the people in Chula Vista do not want the project on the
bayfront.
9/28/82
City Council Meeting - 13 - September 28, 1982
MS (McCandliss/Scott) to hold a public hearing on the review of the EIR
document for purposes of certifying the EIR. Mayor Cox spoke in opposition to
the motion.
SUBSTITUTE MOTION
MS (Scott/Malcolm) not to support the SANDER project at all.
Councilman Moore spoke against the motion stating that he is still concerned
with the due process of hearing all matters to come before the Council. Mayor
Cox felt that a substitute motion was an inappropriate action to take at this
time. He noted that Supervisor Hamilton had just undergone surgery and would
be out for two or three weeks and the matter should be continued until he
could be present.
MSUC (Cox/Moore) to continue this item until the meeting of October 19.
The Council recessed to Closed Door Session at 10:46 p.m. The City Clerk was
excused; the City Manager reported that the meeting ended at ll:40 p.m.
