PUBLIC HEARING CONSIDERATION OF AN INCREASE IN THE SEWER SF..RVICE CHARGES AND MODIFICATION OF RATE STRUCTORE - As a member of the San Diego Metropolitan Sewerage System (Metro), the City of Chula Vista has been asked to participate in its expansion and upgrade program. In order to participate and comply with State requirements of the program, Chula Vista has had a Wastewater Revenue Plan prepared by a consultant. This plan was used to determine the sewer billing methodology and the sewer service charges proposed for fiscal year 1991-92. Staff recommends approval of the resolution. Continued from the meeting of May 21, 1991. (Director of Public Works) /537q John Lippitt, Director of Public Works, stated this was the second increase for the update of the sewer system but also a requirement by the State to do a sewer revenue plan. The main element of the plan is that the sewer rates now have to take into account the strength of sewage so this is a change in the way the City has charged in the past. The increases for single family users are close to the prediction from staff last year. Mayor Pro Tempore Moore questioned whether the increase went into the potential expansion of the Metro sewer system, how it is kept separate from public funds, and what the percent was. He further questioned whether there was a report that detailed how much was collected and set aside. Mr. Lippitt responded that the funds were set aside for the upgrade. At the time the rates were developed it was estimated that $2.9 million would go into a reserve fund. Staff can submit a supplemental report to Council with this information. This being the time and place as advertised, the public hearing was declared open. There being no public testimony, the public hearing was declared closed. RF.,?~IJJTION 16187 OFFERED BY MAYOR PRO TEMPORE MOORE, reading of the text was waive& Councfiman Nader referred to the low income rate and questioned what the social security COLA was last year. He also questioned the percentage of increase. Mr. Lippitt responded that he was unaware of what the S.S. COLA was but that the rate increase was kept at 1156 per year for eight years. MOTION: (Nadar) senior low income sewer rate increase be limited to the social security COLA percentage. Motion died for lack of second. Mayor Pro Tempore Moore requested a report on the pro's and con's of modifying rates for low income persons. Councilman Nader questioned when the report would be submitted by the consultant regarding options for either staying with Metro II, going outside, or a combination. Mr. Lippitt responded that staff had received a report and were now working with the City of San Diego. It is unknown at this time what the costs would be for going with San Diego. He hoped that a decision would be made within one year. There is a special act district that is going before the legislature which would allow the agencies one year to get out once they have joined without penalty and it will not become Minutes June 4, 1991 Page 6 law until 1992. Hopefully, staff will have an updated report on where the project is and what the possible eosts will be in October/November. VOTE ON MOTION: approved unanimously. Councilman Malcolm stated he had not supported Councilman Nader's motion as he felt it unfair to give a discount only to senior citizens. He felt there was a large number of people that would qualify for low income rates and they should not be only for the seniors. RESOIIfi1ON 16187 ~INGTHEMASTERFEESCHEDULETOPROVIDEFORANINI3FASE 1IN 'I1E SL%VF.R SERVICE CHARGES AND MODIFICATION IN THE RATE b'I'KUCTURE AND ADOPTING THE WAb-i~W ATER REV!~IUE PROGRAM ORAL COMMUNICATIONS a. Cynthia Williarns, 114 3rd Avenue, Chula Vista, CA, referred to her previous request for waiver for processing an amendment to the General Plan. The delay has resulted in a hardship, loss of equity, and suffering. She was upset that her request had not been addressed by staff as directed by Council at the May 7, 1991 meeting. She again requested Council assistance with this matter. Robert heiter, Director of Planning, stated that the General Plan had been changed to low/medium residential but the zoning is still R3. There is a need to go through and revise the zoning or the general plan to bring those areas into consistency. That is the approach that has been taken on B1 and staff will continue with the other areas in the coming year. Mayor Pro Tempore Moore questioned ff this was the area that the Council changed in the early 60's from R1 to P.3. He requested a report back from staff as to whether this property had been originally zoned R1 or ff it had been upzoned or downzoned. Mr. Leiter stated that the area designated as B1 would be before Council next week for public hearing. The zoning history for that area is included in the report. B1 is the fLrst area Council directed staff to do a zoning consistency study on; there are four remaining areas and staff will bring back a work program in July for prioritization by Council. Council had directed staff to approach the program in increments due to the revenues and staff time involved. He would estimated that it would take approximately six months to conduct the study on Mrs. Williams property if designated as a high priority by Council. A project can be brought forward if there is a zoning inconsistency as long as it conformed with the densities in the general Councilman Malcolm stated he would not mind reviewing plans brought forward on a case by case basis if in conformance with the zoning. Council could not take action tonight as it was not on the agenda but could request that the item be docketed for future consideration. He requested that this parcel be placed under Councilman Nader's comments for next week as he would not be in attendance. Councilman Nader questioned why staff had not agendized this item for May 21, 1991. He felt that when directed to do so, staff should agendize an item and if not ready to discuss, request that the item be continued. Wanda Eaton, 9651 Mast Boulevard, Santee, CA, representing Eaton Development Company, Inc., requested that this item be agendized and heard by Council as an independent parcel. Minutes June 4, 1991 Page 7 Mr. Leiter requested clarification of the Council request. It was his understanding that staff, under Councilman Nader's Comments, discuss an approach that would allow individual processing of either a General Plan amendment or some basis for approval of individual plans in this area pending completion of the study. Mayor Pro Tempore Moore responded that it could be brought back under Councilman Nader's Comments or could be on the Consent Calendar. Councilman Malcolm stated that if the Council allows this particular property to change zoning to R3 it would seem that others would also be allowed to go back. This would pave the way for other inconsistencies of this type. Councilman Nader suggested that staff prepare recommendations and options as to whether this would open up all properties in this category or if there should be guidelines as to whether it is in the first study area, in an area surrounded by development as being proposed, or any other criteria staff may feel appropriate. Councilman Rindone felt Council was giving direction and that Councilman Malcolm's original intent had been to give direction to staff on how to deal with processing of an individual property. He felt Council had gone past that into assessing what the recommendations are, ramifications, etc. Council needed to look fortyard to the report on Councilman Malcolm's initial request, which was germane to the discussion, and then move on from that point. ~ Laura Smith, 435 First Avenue, Chula Vista, CA, stated she was the owner of a tri-plex and four-plex. She expressed her concern over the sewer charges that had been levied against her units. Due to previous FI-IA requirements, each unit has an individual water meter. Therefore, she is currently paying higher sewer fees that modern units with a main meter. She had been advised that her only alternative is to install one main meter at each complex. She felt this was an additional expense that she would have to bear and that the utilization of individual meters allowed her to monitor water usage per unit. She requested that she be allowed to keep the seven water meters and be charged for attached units. Mayor Pro Tempore Moore requested that staff research this situation to see what could be done. Property owners should not pay more than their fair share due to stricter building requirements in past years. Councilman Malcolm felt anyone with attached units with single meters should be able to file an application to be charged for attached units. He requested that this item be docketed in two weeks under his comments. Councilman Rindone concurred with Councilman Malcolm and felt there were advantages, i.e. water conservation, of having individual meters. If this could not be done procedurally, staff should bring back a resolution for Council review. ACTION ~ 15 .A. REPORT INSTALLATION OF PROTEt;iiVE COVERING AT ORANGE-RIEN:>-IRA PARK- The Department received a Council referral concerning a complaint from Tom Martin, coach of a South Bay Little League team using Orange-Rienstra Park, regarding a potential hazard at the field site due to deteriorated protective netting covering in the spectator area adjacent to the bleachers and concession stand. Staff recommends replacing the netting material with chain-link fencing or other similar material which provides a stronger and longer lasting barrier and l~at the City and the Little League enter into a matching fund parmership for the funding of the project. (Director of Parks & Recreation) (requires 4/51h vote) M~nutes June 4, 199~ Page 8 Tom Martin, 1438 Platano Court, Chula Vista, CA, representing the Little League, disagreed with staffs recommendations. He felt the recommendations were a step in the fight direction but there was still a problem in working out one alternative. He requested that the item be continued until this could be resolved. :MS (Malcolm/Moore) to continue the item to the June 18, 1991 meeting. Councilman Rindone requested that the item be referred to the Parks and Recreation Commission for review. Their next meeting will be held on June 20th.. AMEND~I~IT TO MOTION: (Malcolm/Moore) to continue the item to the meeting of July 9, 1991. Approved unaubnously. VOTE ON MOTION AS AMENDF..D: approved unanimously. B.

REPORT ARCHERY RANGE AT EUCALYPTUS PARK - The Archery Range at Eucalyptus Park was closed on June 26, 1990 for safety reasons following a citizen complaint regarding stray arrows almost striking Fifth Avenue residents. Staff has met with local archery enthusiasts in an attempt to locate a suitable alternative site for the archery range and has investigated what improvements would be necessary to make the Eucalyptus site suitable for use. Suitable alternate sites have not been located, and improvements at the existing site are not feasible. Staff recommends that Counc~ support the decision to permanently close the Eucalyptus Park Archery Range. (Director of Parks & Recreation) -Jess Valenzuela, Director of Parks and Recreation, informed Council that the archery range had been 'temporary closed approximately one year ago due to stray arrows and safety concerns. Staff took a report to the Parks and Recreation Commission recommending penanent closure and requesting that staff be directed to seek alternative sights for an archery range. The Commission approved the request and it is now before Council for review. MS 0Moore/Nader) to accept the report and staff recommendation. ~ Counc~members Nadar and Malcolm expressed concern over the selection of a new site and felt there should :be a deadline set. ~City Manager Goss responded that the initial recommendation from the Parks and Recreation Commission had been to dose the range with no follow-up. It was his feeling that staff should consider an sitemate site. This type of facility would be difficult to site but felt a good location might be somewhere in the Otay Valley Regional Park, This could possibly be a three to four year process. Councilman Malcolm requested that a progress report be submitted to Counc~ in six months. VOTE ON MOTION: approved unanimously.

COUNCIL COMMENTS Councilman Malcolm: Informed Council that the off-road vehicle park would be decided next week. It would appear the State would borrow from the 'green sticker' fund with the promise to repay. He also noted that the State had not repaid the loan from that fund ten years ago. Councilman Rindone: Requested that staff docket Combs versus City of Chula Vista for closed session at the June 11, 1991 Council meeting. Councilman Nader: Referred to the previous discussion of low income senior rates for sewer service charges. He felt an 11% 'increase for the next seven years was a hefty increase for everyone. He hoped that staff would see that the Council received updated information, based on the report the consultant is doing, as to what steps the City could take to avoid those increases during that period of time. Staff is to expedite that information along with options to Council for review.
