ITEMS REMOVED FROM THE CONSENT CALENDAR
I. RESOLUTION NO. 2007-231, RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF CHULA VISTA AMENDING SECTION 9 OF COUNCIL POLICY 478-01
REGARDING THE TRAFFIC SIGNAL PARTICIPATION FEE TO INCLUDE THE
INSTALLATION OF AMERICANS WITH DISABILITIES ACT COMPLIANT
PEDESTRIAN RAMPS IN THE LIST OF USES OF FUNDS IN THE TRAFFIC
SIGNAL FUND AS REQUIRED BY RECENT MODIFICATIONS TO FEDERAL
LAW
City Council previously set a policy regulating the collection of a traffic signal impact fee
from developers to offset the impact of their projects on the City's traffic signal system.
As a result of recent modifications to the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the
City is now required to construct additional pedestrian facilities in conjunction with
certain traffic signal modification projects. Adoption of the resolution allows the City to
use the traffic signal participation fee program funds in order to comply with related
ADA requirements in accordance with recent modifications to the federal law.
(Engineering and General Services Director)
Page 4 - Council Minutes
September 18, 2007
CONSENT CALENDAR (continued)
Councilmember Castaneda asked if traffic signal participation fee funding could be used to
delineate turn lanes at intersections in western Chula Vista to improve traffic capacity and move
traffic more efficiently, and, if so, whether a policy change to effect this was needed.
Engineering and General Services Director Griffin responded that traffic signal fees were used
primarily for traffic signals themselves; however, other fees, such as gas tax, TransNet or
transportation development impact funds, could be looked at. He said he would report back to
the Council in the near future with his report to amend the fee to cover the increased costs of the
ADA amendment.
ACTION:
Councilmember Castaneda offered Resolution No. 2007-231, heading read, text
waived; and moved to direct staff to investigate further modifications to improve
traffic flow. Councilmember McCann seconded the motion, and it carried 4-0.
PUBLIC COMMENTS
Sandra McHale Renk, Chula Vista resident, spoke in opposition to the proposed Riverwalk
residential development on the KOA site and the tainted development process that offered no
place for community input. She further stated that the structure of the RAC (Redevelopment
Advisory Committee) and CVRC (Chula Vista Redevelopment Corporation) brought only the
interests of the developer to the process, not those of the community. She asked that the General
Plan, which calls for open space and a community park, be honored.
Gail Cavanah, Chula Vista resident, spoke in opposition to the proposed Riverwalk development,
and asked the Council not to change the General Plan and to keep the open space and designated
parkland on the west side.
Mayor Cox stated that the Riverwalk project had not yet come before the Council and was still
being considered by the RAC and CVRC. However, it was Council's intent to keep an open
public process throughout.

ACTION ITEMS
II. CHARGERS STADIUM SITE ANALYSIS REPORT
Stadium consultant Cooper Robertson and Partners completed a site feasibility report on
behalf of the City of Chula Vista. The analysis included the evaluation of potential
stadium sites relative to operational issues, physical constraints, and policy issues. The
report presented the results of their findings.
Councilmember McCann spoke regarding the presentation that would be provided by the
consultant, Randy Morton and his colleagues from Cooper, Robertson & Partners, and thanked
the Chargers for paying for the study at no cost to the citizens of Chula Vista. Councilmember
McCann concluded by saying that the City had an unprecedented opportunity to elevate its
image; bring in new revenues for roads, parks, fire and police; jumpstart efforts to bring a four-
year university to the City; and fast-track road improvements.
Planning and Building Director Sandoval provided an overview of Council actions taken since
May 2006, when the Council voted unanimously to enter into discussions with the San Diego
Chargers regarding the potential building of a stadium in Chula Vista;. In December 2006, a
subcommittee of the Mayor and Councilmember McCann was created to interact with the
Chargers; and in January 2007, the Council entered into a contract with the architectural firm of
Cooper Robertson and Partners to perform a site analysis that was fully funded by the San Diego
Chargers.
Randy Morton of Cooper, Robertson & Partners introduced his colleagues who assisted with the
preparation of the survey, and provided an overview of the report and several conceptual
illustrations.
Councilmember McCann introduced Mr. Fabiani, Special Counsel for the San Diego Chargers,
who stated that the site survey was, without qualification, the best money his organization had
spent; and he commended the consultant and City staff for their hard work and expertise. He
stated that his organization realized the heavy burden they carried to find a way to finance the
stadium, and that they were looking for willing partners to privately finance it, which had never
been done before, but which they thought was possible. Mr. Fabiani also stated that they knew
they had to convince the citizens of Chula Vista that they could handle the ramifications that
would come with a stadium, such as traffic and environmental impacts on the neighborhoods.
He noted that they would continue to host community meetings to gather public input. Mr.
Fabiani closed by saying that once a site was agreed upon, his firm would pay for a study to
evaluate the financial feasibility and benefits to the City by putting together an economic impact
study of taxes and jobs. He hoped to bring the study back to the City in time for an advisory vote
in 2008. He committed to working hand in hand with the public and the City, and stated that the
proposal by his organization would not disturb any plans for the bayfront or university campus
projects.
Norbert Stein, Chula Vista resident, spoke in support of the Chargers coming to Chula Vista.

September 18, 2007
ACTION ITEMS (continued)
Patricia Lopez, Chula Vista resident, expressed the need for the City to take care of its residents
first, before investing funds in a stadium.
Tom Clavell, Chula Vista resident whose property is near one of the proposed sites, spoke in
support of the proposed stadium project and asked that his elected representatives give full
consideration to the proposal.
Cindy Gomper Graves, accompanied by Patricia Trauth and representing the South County
Economic Development Council, thanked the Council for taking a leadership role on the issue.
She stated that the Board of Directors had voted to support the Chargers' relocation to the South
Bay, had established a Charger Stadium Task Force to assist the City as it explores the stadium
possibility, and encouraged continued efforts to bring the stadium to Chula Vista.
Parks Pemberton, Chula Vista resident, spoke in opposition to the proposed stadium, citing
increased traffic and residents who would be forced out of the west side of the City.
Ed Lopez, Chula Vista resident and co-chairman of the South County Economic Development
Council, supported the possible location of a stadium in Chula Vista and asked the Council to
continue forward with an open process.
Scott Alevy, representing the San Diego Regional Chamber of Commerce, stated that while his
organization had not taken an official position on a stadium site, it did have an official position
that the Chargers were a regional asset and belonged in San Diego. He thanked the Council and
staff and encouraged them to continue to move forward to work through any real or perceived
problems.
Patricia Aguilar, Chula Vista resident representing Crossroads II, stated the organization,
representing 600 Chula Vista citizens, supported staffs recommendation that the Council accept
the report and provide further direction as needed. Further, she stated that it was essential for
citizens to be able to view and understand the financing proposal and that the matter be put to a
binding vote, should it get that far, so that the people can make the final decision.
Charles Moore, Chula Vista resident and president of the Chula Vista Chamber of Commerce,
spoke in support of the Chargers coming to Chula Vista and offered any assistance his
organization could provide to keep the Chargers in the region.
Todd Glanz, Chula Vista resident, expressed concerns regarding the impacts a stadium would
have on the residents, including crowded streets, traffic and noise. He urged the Council to focus
on what was best for the residents, and said he was led to believe that if the topic went to a vote
of the people, it would be binding rather than advisory.
Mitch Thompson, Chula Vista resident and former chair of the General Plan Update Committee,
thanked Councilmember McCann for pursuing the possibility of a Charger stadium in Chula
Vista. He stated that while his initial reaction was negative, he now wanted to look at everything
and become fully informed prior to making a decision. Mr. Thompson stated that his main
concern was traffic impacts and how they would be addressed. He encouraged the Council to
make the process transparent throughout and to have a citizens advisory committee create
wording that is fair for a ballot measure.

September 18, 2007
ACTION ITEMS (continued)
Dan Kray, ChuIa Vista resident, spoke in support of the proposed stadium and asked that if a
stadium were built, it be on the bayfront to bring something new and new revenues to western
ChuIa Vista.
Willard H. Howard, Chula Vista resident, expressed frustration that every time someone wanted
to build something that would improve the west side, it was met with opposition. He encouraged
everyone to maintain a positive attitude and open mind so that the promised undergrounded
utilities, sidewalks, curbs and gutters could finally be provided.
Ted Kennedy, Chula Vista resident, said he did not understand why the City thought it would be
treated any differently than San Diego by the Chargers, and he encouraged the Council to view
the financial information prior to making a final decision.
Jim Peterson, Chula Vista resident, stated the stadium issue should be put to a binding vote if the
Council wanted to gain credibility with the residents.
In closing, Planning and Building Director Sandoval stated that the site survey was the first step
in a lengthy process. He noted that there were few cities in the region that had the amount of
land needed to accommodate the infrastructure needs of this type of development. He then
addressed several of the expressed concerns by stating that should a conceptual proj ect come
forward, staff would do a thorough analysis of the financial issues, environmental impacts,
including traffic issues, and an analysis of the possible effects of such a project on the other
proposed priority projects for the bayfront and eastern university sites.
Mayor Cox thanked staff for their involvement in the study and indicated that the next step
would be for the Chargers to come to a conclusion over the next 30 to 45 days on the sites to
move forward on.
Councilmember Ramirez thanked the Charger organization and Councilmember McCann for
their work on this item. He stated that he wanted to fully consider the implications of such a
development and would respond accordingly once the implications were better understood.
Councilmember Castaneda stated that findings in the report indicated that the project was
technically possible and could bring funding for the things needed in the City, such as sidewalks,
undergrounding and street paving; but cautioned that the Council needed to ensure that whatever
happened would reap benefits for the people of Chula Vista.
Mayor Cox recognized Steve Cushman from the San Diego Unified Port District, who was
present in the audience.
Councilmember McCann thanked everyone for their participation in the discussion and stated
that the next steps would be to put together a detailed financing plan; perform an economic
benefits study that would show how many jobs would be created and what the City and region
would gain from such a project; and conduct public meetings to continue listening to the
community.
