a. ORDINANCE 1993 - GRANTING TO CHULA VISTA SANITARY SERVICE A FRANCHISE TO COLLECT
AND DISPOSE OF REFUSE AND TO USE THE PUBLIC STREETS AND PLACES
WITHIN THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA FOR SAID PURPOSE - FIRST READING
This being the time and place as advertised, Mayor Cox opened the public hearing.
City Manager Cole stated he investigated the background of this firm as required
under the Municipal Code and verified that the intended contractor is capable of
complying with the provisions of the Code and the rules and regulations of the
City. He reported that (1) the franchise is for a lO-year term; (2) prior to
September 30, 1982, Council will be required to determine if some adjustment should
be made to the rates; (3) determine policies on mandatory collection and/or
preferential rates for senior citizens and other classifications; (3) the annual
City Council Meeting -2- July 27, 1982
revenue to the City will be approximately $110,O00, or about $60,000 a year more than
the expiring franchise generated for the City.
--~ Dick Chase, Jr., 389 Nova Place, Chula Vista, stated that the present contract has a
lO-year option and they want to pick up this option; it is a long-range growth - they
are planning to relocate their operation in the City and the new facility will cost
close to $1 million; therefore, they need time to amortize this cost; (3) the City
Council has 90% control over the company.
Mayor Cox announced that the franchise under discussion this evening does not contain
any clause on mandatory services--that will not be a point of discussion this evening,
June Nickens, 11191 Kelowna, Mira Mesa, representing Tiger Services, Tom Hudson and
Associates, Inc., presented a newspaper article from the San Diego Union dated Monday,
July 26, 1982 on the County's Garbage Contract proposals. ~iss Nickens read several
excerpts from the article which allegedly linked the SCA Services, Inc. of Boston
(which includes the Chula Vista Sanitary Services) with organized crime.
Howard Evans, 1431 Camellia Court, Chula Vista, questioned the proposed mandatory
service and the lack of competitive bidding.
Ernest L. Robbins, 488 Elm Avenue, Chula Vista, questioned the rate people with a
small amount of rubbish have to pay as compared to those with a large amount.
E. C. Duhamel, 229 Glover Avenue, Chula Vista spoke against the lO-year contract and
declared there should have been competitive bidding.
Bud Pocklington, 656 Glover Place, Chula Vista, commented on the charge for dumping
garbage in the Otay Land Fill and reiterated the need for competitive bidding.
Tom Hudson, 236 E, Quintard Street, Chula Vista, cautioned the approval of the
contract to this firm adding that the Council should investigate the services which
they provide to the cities of Oceanside, Los Angeles, etc.
Bob Maxwell, 473 Berland Way, Chula Vista, noted the process his firm goes through
in getting bids; determining the responsiveness of the bidder which is not necessarily
the low bidder; urged Council to go the "American way" - through the bidding process.
Dick Chase, Sr., 290 K Street, Chula Vista, declared there was no merit to the charges
that Chula Vista Sanitary was linked to organized crime. The rubbish company was
investigated by the Chula Vista Police Department; and their services have been 3%
to 4% cheaper for this city because of their long-term contract.
Robert Ghiloni, 304 E. Oneida, Chula Vista, referred to the City Manager's report
in which he stated that prior to September 30, the Council may consider a rate adjust-
-~ ment for this company. Mr. Ghiloni s~ated that if the City is going to approve a
contract, they should be well aware of the financial condition of the firm. He added
that the Council should extend this matter until September 30,1982 and have all the
facts before them at that time.
There being no further comments, either for or against, the hearing was declared
closed.
City Council Meeting -3- July 27, 1982
Council discussion followed regarding the bidding process; the suggestion to extend
the contract for a five-year period of time instead of ten; the track record of the
Chula Vista Sanitary Service.
'I *
MS (Malcolm/Cox) to place the ordinance on its first reading, the reading of the text
~ was waived by unanimous consent.
· MSC (Scott/Moore) to amend the ordinance extending the contract date for five years
instead of ten.
Councilman Malcolm and Mayor Cox voted "no" indicating the need for a long-term con-
tract due to the cost of relocating the firm's operation.
THE ORDINANCE was then passed and approved unanimously, as amended.
Further discussion involved the rate study made by the staff sometime ago as it
specifically applies to people with small rubbish pickup and for the senior citizens.
MSUC (Cox/Scott) to ask staff to bring this report back to the Council in two weeks.
6. PUBLIC HEARING - CONSIDERATION OF A REQUEST TO WAIVE THE REQUIREMENT OF REMOVING
TWO UTILITY POLES WITHIN CHULA VISTA TRACT 81-7, PEPPERTREE
ESTATES (City Engineer)
a. RESOLUTION - WAIVING THE REQUIREMENT TO RELOCATE TW~ UTILITY POLES OUTSIDE THE
SUBDIVISION BOUNDARY
This being the time and place as advertised, Mayor Cox opened the public hearing.
City Engineer Lippitt reported that on May 26, 1982, the Utility Company requested, on
behalf of the developers of Peppertree Estates, that the requirement to relocate two
utility poles outside the subdivision boundary be waived. Mr. Lippitt presented a
plat of the area noting the location of the poles and stated that the waiver of the
undergrounding requirement is justified since moving the poles to a point just outside
the subdivision would not eliminate any poles, and therefore, not materially improve
the appearance. Inasmuch as the adjacent property owners refuse to give San Diego Gas
and Electric Company an easement, the facts support the necessary findings of Section
15.32.070 as required for the waiver.
Mr. Carl Lower, Manager of Planning, SDG&E, commented that the change is very minimal
and the cost to move the pole a few feet would give no improved visual impact which
a conversion is designed to do - this was recognized 'early in the game' and t'he7 designed
the job in a way they felt would be reasonable. They-are now asking the City to
consider this proposal. Mr. Lower added that if they must straddle the property line
-'. in order to meet the overhead easement outside the subdivision in the underground
rights inside the subdivision within a few inches, they would have to build a structure
that would be more cumbersome and would have a bigger visual impact than what is there
right now. They would, therefore, prefer leaving the poles just inside the subdivision
boundary.
* "As per minutes of 2-17-83, Councilman Scott's vote should have been an absention."
City Council Meeting .. -4- July 27, 1982
Mr. Jack Nakawatase, representing ADMA, the developers, 4398 Bonita Road, said he
concurred with the staff's report and recommended the request for the waiver.
Speaking against the request were: Lawrence Lassman, 471 Jacaranda Drive; Ben Layton,
430 Jacaranda Drive; Aaron Mannis, 446 Jacaranda Drive. In summary, their concerns
were: (1) would like to know exactly where the road will go before this waiver is
approved; (2) developer could underground the pole on Layton's property for as little
as $2500; (3) hold this in abeyance until the Council consider the final map which
will give the residents more time to look at this request; (4) Dr. Layton concerned
with his prescriptive rights; (5) the pole relocation may have to cross Layton's
cesspool and leech lines; (6) the traffic safety should be given serious consideration.
Council discussion ensued with staff answering questions pertaining to the time
element involved in a deferral versus a waiver; location of guide wires; cost of
undergrounding the poles; residents' not concerned with the pole on the south boundary
but are questioning the relocation of the west pole; staff has not set a time when the
final map will be ready for Council consideration.
Mr. Nakawatase remarked that the developers want consideration of the waiver this
evening inasmuch as this problem has to be solved before the final map can be presented
to Council. He added that similar delays have incurred due to the residents' objections
to the drainage proposals and that all of the delays are costing the developer money.
There being no further comments, either for or against, the hearing was declared closed.
MSUC (Cox/McCandliss) continue public hearing for two weeks and request staff to
proceed with the processing of plan checks of the final map and make an ~arn:est
request that the developer and Dr. Layton get together to see if there is some mutually
agreeable resolution to the problem,
Discussion of the motion: Council asked if the roadway could be set within the next
two weeks; assess the safety of the pole that might be remaining; the motion includes
a reopening of the hearing and its continuance; clarification of the motion: there
may be a chance for the developer and Dr. Layton to Work out an agreement whereby the
necessity of having the pole anywhere on the property will be eliminated by extending
the undergrounding; City Clerk to notify these people when the final map is to be
considered by Council.
RECESS at 9:20 p.m. to 9:35 p.m.

(City Engineer)
a.RESOLUTION 10962 ORDERING CERTAIN STREET LIGHTING AND LANDSCAPING FACILITIES TO
BE MAINTAINED ANY LEVYING ASSESSMENT FOR FY 1982-83 (THIRD
AVENUE BETWEEN E AND G STREETS)
City Engineer Lippitt noted the Council's direction at the last meeting to look at the
district as far as when the landscaping and lights will beinstalled and toward a 50%
reduction for those properties in the new project (assessments). Mr. Lippitt said he
met with all parties involved. The contract is expected to be completed prior to
Thanksgiving; therefore, staff felt the 50% cut in assessment was not justified and
that 40% cut would be more appropriate. As to the reserves, the City put up $14,200
to pay the bills for six months and for prior landscaping. As of June 30, the fund
balance was $16,500. Mr. Lippitt said his recommendation is to (1) pay back $8000 to the
Redevelopment Agency and (2) retain $8500 in reserve for next year.
MSUC (Cox/McCandliss) to approve the staff's report and recommendation - amending the
resolution to include the 40% reduction in assessments.

(Starlight Center - 1280 Nolan Avenue). Mr. Ghiloni declared that (1) the plans(Starlight)
were not adhered to; (2) property was not compacted properly; (3) it was not supervised
properly; (3) there is a drain approximately 135 feet from the northwest boundary on
Oneida - the map calls for it to be 100 feet; (4) it also calls for a perimeter elevation
of 288 on the northerly and westerly side of the property with a one-half percent slope
to the drain; (5) approximately 62'to 65' of the westerly boundary heading south there
was a dip 16 ½ inches below the top of the drain - the water from this area came onto

18. REPORT ON'REQUEST TO WAIVE OR REDUCE POOL CHARGES FOR HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETIC PRACTICE
AND COMPETITION (Director of Parks and Recreation)
In response to theelimination of funding for various sports activities, a group of con-
cerned parents have formed the Greater Sweetwater District High School Sports Foundation,
Inc. It is their intention to solicit monies for the specific purpose of funding
athletic teams and providing coaching and facilities for those sports which have been
eliminated. Chairman of this Board is Mrs. Joy Sheresh and she requested (a) City to
donate the total cost of providing the pool facilities and staff for the high school
water polo and swim teams; and (b) donate a portion of the cost for these teams. Due
to the revenue shortfall in the City's Park and Recreation Department, the Director
is recommending that the charges for the use of the pool and lifeguards not be waived.
Council discussion followed with staff answering questions pertaining to the cost of
the chemicals put into the pool, the maintenance of the pools, hours that the pools
are open to the public, cost per hour for the lifeguards, and the suggestion that
perhaps qualified lifeguards could be found under the Volunteer Program.
Mrs. Sheresh, 688 Robert Avenue, explained that there are 40 boys involved in this
sport and if they were all to individually pay for using the pool for 3-3/4 hours, it
would come to $40.00; however, the City is charging $60.00.
MSUC (McCandliss/Malcolm) given assurances that they (the Foundation) could provide
the lifeguards and have qualified lifeguards d~ hand, the $5.50 lifeguard fee be
waived.
