Councilman Rindone stated he favored Option I - to accept the policy and leave the award with Nelson
Roofing, as it would save the City $2,600. The contractor had been duly noted and the City did not have
to waste money to prove their point.
MS (Rindone/Nader) to accept the policy and leave the award with Nelson Roofing.
Clifford Swanson, Deputy Director of Public Works/City Engineer, informed Council that Nelson Roofing did
supply the insurance certificate on Friday morning after the Council meeting. Staff felt that due to the
problems encountered in obtaining the certificate there could be problems in administrating the contract.
Sid Morris, Assistant City Manager, stated that staff felt it was possibly an indication of what the City could
run into in the future with the contractor. By awarding it to the second low bid the City could potentially
be saving substantially more than $2,600.
Mayor Nader questioned whether the City had any experience with Nelson Roofing.
Mr. Swanson stated he was unaware if there were any other contracts with Nelson Roof'rag. He had been
informed by the Building Maintenance Superintendent that they were a competent contractor.
Mayor Nader questioned whether the contract contained provisions requiring compensation to the City for
any delays, errors or omissions.
Mr. Swanson stated that if it was a performance issue the Mayor was correct. However, if the contractor
gave the City trouble with the rest of the contract, as he did with the insurance, it could cost the City a lot
of staff time.
Councilman Rindone stated if there was trouble during the contract the City would never be interested in
awarding another contract to Nelson Roofing in the future. Staff was correct in proceeding in another
direction but he did not concur with the final recommendation.
City Attorney Boogaard stated options available to the Council would be: 1) accept the low bidder, 2) reject
all bids and rebid the job, and 3) declare the first bidder in default and award the contract to the second
lowest bidder.
Mayor Nader felt the contract should provide for cancellation or liquidated damages if the contractor caused
an unreasonable use of staff time. He questioned whether the failure to meet the deadline set for the
insurance certificate caused undue staff time.
Mr. Swanson stated that it had.
SIJB511 [LrIE MOTION: (Nader) the contract be offered to the low bidder provided they compensate the City
for the staff time caused by their failure to come back in a timdy manner with information required; the
alternative be to go with the second lowest bidder. Motion died for lack of second.
Councilwoman Horton felt the contractor had already shown how they would work with the City. The
$2,600 was significant but she felt it would be extremely stressful in working with them.
Counc~man Fox stated the insurance certificate was a fundamental item required of contractors and for staff
to have to follow-up as they did was beyond what was expected. He supported the staff recommendation.

Mayor Nader stated that if the motion passed he expected legal staff to look at the contract before it went
to him for signature and if there were any questions as to the City being fully covered by liquidated damages
he wanted it to come back to Council for reconsideration before signing.
VOTE ON MOTION: approved 3-2 with Fox and Horton opposed.

PUBLIC FIEARINGS AND RI~LATED RESOLLrrlONS AND ORDINANCES
None submitted.
ORAL COMMUNICATIONS
· William E. Claycomb, 457 Delaware Street, Imperial Beach, CA 91932, representing Save Our Bay,
Inc., expressed his concern regarding any development which would adversely affect values on lands subject
to any State public trust ownership interest.
· Tony Ciotti, 1338 Santa Cruz Court, Chula Vista, CA 91910, referred to the recent homicides near
the park. The park area did not have lights and he expressed their concern with the drinking, drug use, and
loitering in the area after dark. The residents of the area requested that the park be closed at sundown.
Richard Emerson, Chief of Police, informed Council that the park bordered residential areas. There had been
significant enhanced enforcement in the area with assistance from the beat officers.
Mayor Nader questioned whether there was a curfew that could be enforced.
Chief Emerson responded there was a curfew but the problem was probably with those above curfew age.
Mayor Nader questioned whether the curfew ordinance could be extended for that particular park. He hoped
that ff there were violations of the public drinking laws, loitering laws, or curfews they would be enforced.
City Attorney Boogaard stated the park could be closed during particular hours which would not be a
curfew.
MS (Nader/Horton) to refer to staff to continue enforcement of the public diirlking and loitering laws and
report back to Council on either an extension of the curfew or a particular closure hour,
Councilman Moore stated that no matter what action was taken there would be a problem with enforcement.
The posting of the property should be the first priority.
Councilman Fox assumed that Council would receive information on how the recommended action would
affect the legal use of the park, i.e. traveling through the park at night, summer hours, etc.
Councilwoman Harton requested that the report include information on any other parks within the City with
similar problems, i.e. no lighting, loitering, etc.
Mayor Nader stated he would incorporate that into the motion. He requested that Neighborhood Watch and
neighborhood groups assist the Police Department.

Councilman Rindone stated the City had experienced other times when action had to be taken in order to
control particular problems. It was not for every park and he hoped staff would consider that when bringing
back their recommendations.
VOTE ON MOTION: approved unanimously.
ACTION ITEMS
6. REGIONAL SOLID WASTE ISSUES AND THE PROPOSED PARTICIPATION AGREFAMENT - A
presentation by Stephanie Snyder, Principal Management Assistant, on the status of regional solid waste
issues and discussion of a proposed Solid Waste Participation Agreement. (Administration)
Stephanie Snyder, Principal Management Assistant, highlighted the Cit3/s responsibilities and changes in the
proposed Solid Waste Participation Agreement.
Councilman Moore updated the Council regarding the Solid Waste Summit. A motion had been passed to
appoint two elected officials from north county coastal, north county inland, east county, and south county
along with the Chair and Vice-Chair of the Board of Supervisors. There would also be one attorney from
the city group and one attorney from the county and one key staff member from each of the groups.
Larry Sheehan, Deputy Chief Administrative Officer, County of San Diego, stated the Board of Supervisors
had stated they did not have a problem with a city manager and city attorney from each of the four
subagencies.
Councilman Moore felt the key issue was that the City should concentrate on four to eight major concerns
in the agreement. He did not want a bunch of legal technicalities, but the major concerns with
recommendations and alternatives. Major concerns were the twenty year period; where the funding from
the $52 million dollar bond would go; what the difference was between a JPA and commission; and who
would make the decision regarding rate increases.
Mrs. Snyder handed out follow-up recommendations to the proposed Solid Waste Participation Agreement.
The recommendation was to utilize a phased approach in amending the agreement. Because the County
owned, operated, and managed the system, the City was on the outside looking in. The question was
whether the City wanted to be a partner and if so, the City would be facing questions such as: where to
site a landfill, whether to build transfer stations, rail hauling part of the flow, etc.
City Manager Goss listed seven issues: 1) term of agreement, 2) flow control, 3) long term obligations, i.e.
long term disposal sites, 4) governance, S) solid waste facility fees, 6) rates and tipping fees, and 7) past
liability.
City Attorney Boogaard suggested there were other major concerns, i.e. City General Fund liability. Other
points of concern were: 1) Emergency and Other Exceptions, 2) authority to set tipping fees, 3) NCKA facility
capability/costs.
Counc~man Moore felt staff needed to give Council a listing of the problems, options, and impacts and he
did not want to wait two months for the report.
Councilman Rindone stated he was concerned with trying to assess the County position. He questioned how
serious the County was in giving up their authority and going into a JPA. The Council's number one
responsibility was to assure that the City had a solid waste facility available and their second priority was

Page 5
to assure the best rates for the rate payers. He questioned what the City could do in assisting in the $52
million dollar assurance and coming up with a long term plan that provided the best rate for the rate payers.
He wanted the staff report to include an assessment of the short term and long term rates the consumer
would be facing as the Council examined the various options.
Councilman Moore stated another item should be regional fees versus county fees.
Ms. Sheehan stated that until there was some way of controlling where the flow went the fees were not
equal across the system. The NCRA facility would serve the entire region in terms of credit for recycling for
meeting AB939 requirements. It had been their experience that it should be kept as a system with the
system fees kept equalized in order to serve the entire region, The Participation Agreement was not intended
to solve a short term problem. There was a long term problem and that was how much waste should be
planned for in the county. The County Board was open to joint participation. The Board was also open to
setting up something as a Special Act District where all the staffing, decision making, etc. was vested in the
authority or to a commission as proposed.
City Attorney Boogaard stated a JPA would depend upon what liabilities the cities were being asked to
absorb and what extent the JPA members would be liable for the liabilities of any one violating member.
There was discussion that the cities in the county could form a JPA and then contract with the county for
senrice. There were different forms of JPA's.
Councilman Rindone stated the proposal hadn't gone far enough and Council had not received enough
information from staff to analyze alternatives or specifics. There needed to be a thorough analysis of the
participation agreement after it was reworked by the Task Force. Once that had been done and the
agreement was acceptable to the representatives of the eighteen c/ties, staff should analyze the impacts upon
the City and the rate payers. Staff should also assess a county-wide JPA and the potential impacts including
current liabilities; and a south county JPA.
Councilman Fox stated the staff recommendation before Council only dealt with the Participation Agreement
and not alternatives. He questioned whether staff would be coming back with alternatives.
City Manager Goss stated that part of the recommendation was to go along with some of the other cities that
had already taken action and say that the City was not willing to allow total flow control at this point.
MSUC (Moore/Rindone) to direct staff to formulate the key concerns Coe specific), make recomrnefidations
with poss~le alternatives and/or repercussions, and have available for the first meeting of the SANDAG
County Task Force.
Councilman Moore stated the three recommendations were vague and he felt the City needed to be more
specific to the county.
City Manager Goss stated the reason for the recommendation was to create the framework then staff would
look at the specific issues that Council wanted them to specifically address. When stating that the City did
not agree with total flow control but could mean, based on the analysis, a partial flow contzol or no flow
control. Staff was saying they were uncomfortable with total flow control and wanted a policy statement
that said Council did not support that.
Councilman Rindone stated that before Council could give a policy statement they needed an analysis of the
pro's and con's and alternatives. That information was not available to Council at this time.
Minutes

Councilman Moore stated he would not agree with the two months included in the second recommendation.
Staff knew the key concerns and had done advance work and therefore did not need 30 - 45 days.
Mrs. Snyder stated it would not take 45 days to bring back the specifics, she was referring to the final
analysis once the new Participation Agreement came from the Task Force. Specific concerns could be
prepared within a week.
Councilman Fox requested that the City Attorney's concerns also be addressed.
Councilman Moore stated that more information regarding the City's concerns regarding Recommendation
#1 should be included in the response to the County. He felt that Recommendation #3 should be brought
back to Council within 3-4 weeks.
Mayor Nader expressed concern over the voting power and control. He questioned whether the City would
be better off being an advisory body to the county with the county making the decisions. He hoped that
staff would address that issue.
City Attorney Boogaard stated his major concern with the document was the "Flow Control Covenant".
Recent cases dealing with the Commerce Clause had ruled that similar Flow Control Covenants were illegal.
Mayor Nader requested that the City Attorney work with staff to propose a remedy to the defect. He
questioned whether there was anything that would prevent the City, through the exercising of rate setting,
from taking into consideration when passing on rate requests, the appropriateness of Laidlaw's decision as
to where they took their trash.
City Attorney Boogaard responded that it was an untested area of the law. The Commerce Clause had been
ruled to validate Flow Control Covenants and bond counsel for the county had proposed the language which
took a step beyond what any case had ruled.
MSUC (Mooreftqader) direct staff to prepare a letter for the Mayor's signature to the Chairman of the County
Board of Supervisors to address the Council's concerns with a statement such as *the~e will be presented in
appropriate verbiage for the Task Force'. Crhose concerns as outlined by the Council, City Manager, and
City Attorney.)
I~SUC (Moore/Nader) to direct staff to review the major concerns voiced and return within thirty day~ with
recommendations and alternatives.
Mayor Nader requested that staff also be authorized to discuss the concerns with the County.

7. CI.R/kN WATER PROGRAM - A presentation on the history options to Chula Vista and issues
concerning the new San Diego Area Wastewater Management District. Staff and consultants will present
options available to Chula Vista for Wastewater Treatment and issues that need to be resolved prior to final
decision to join the regional system. (Director of Public Works)
John Lippitt, Director of Public Works, reviewed the goals, cost issues, consumers alternative, special act
district, and alternative studies. Frank Dudeck, Dudeck & Assoc., reviewed the Alternative Study and the
four alternatives.
Minutes
March 30, 1993
Page 7
Mayor Nader stated that one of the alternatives discussed was to negotiate a contract with IBWC and
questioned whether that would be pursued if Council chose Alternatives 2 or 3.
Mr. Dudeck agreed with the Mayor. He then rev/ewed the cost issues of each alternative. The recommended
alternative from the Committee was 2A - partially join SAD; Chula Vista control Otay Valley WRF; excluding
oversizing and reclamation.
City Attorney Boogaard stated there was no "Duty to Serve" in SAD and therefore it would be a decision
relegated to a regular or weighted voting process. One of the mechanisms being discussed was mending
the SAD legislation to include a "Duty to Serve" which would exempt it from the weighted or regular voting
process. The concern was that non-growth cities would not vote to expand the capacity system to handle
Chula Vista's new growth. It would be delegating the City's land use decisions to other parts of the county.
Mayor Nader stated the real issue was the split between existing and future rate payers. The City did not
want the existing rate payers to subsidize the new growth in the City or elsewhere in the county. He stated
one of the continuing controversies with the Board was the weighted voting issue. Under the present
structure the City of San Diego could call For a weighted vote on any item. A proposal that was passed
would recommend to the State Legislature that they amend the District Legislation to change the procedure
which would allow the City of San Diego to have veto power over anything the District did but could not
unilaterally pass anything. A weighted vote could only be used to kill action. The other restriction would
be that a weighted vote could never be taken on items dealing with personnel issues. The Board voted to
set up a budget of $100,000 and assess the members. He had voted against compensation for Board
Members which had been legislated up to $100 per meeting. He felt the key issues that were unresolved
in addition to what would happen to the excess capacity that had already been contracted for were: 1) how
would costs of capacity expansion be spread between existing rate payers versus new rate payers, and 2)
the water reclamation issue. The Board was not acting on those issues and the clock was ticking. In order
to pull out safely to avoid a lawsuit, the City needed to use the earliest date which according to the City
Attorney was November 1st. The other restriction on the City's right to pull out dealt with the incurfence
of debt obligation by the District.
MS {Nader/Fox} go with Alternative ZA and direct staff to monitor the proceedings at SAD and prepare
whatever was necessary to assure that the City could convey their decision to drop out on a momenB notice
if it appeared that SAD was about to consider the incurfence of debt prior to the issues being resolved to
the City's satisfaction.
Councilman Fox questioned whether it was the intent of the motion to rank the alternatives as recommended
or just deal with 2A.
Mayor Nader stated that the motion dealt with Alternative 2A.
City Attorney Boogaard questioned whether the motion was Alternative 2A including trying to negotiate 1
through 8.
Mayor Nader stated there were other issues that needed to be negotiated and those were the issues that he
had listed and staff had gone through.
AMENDIVIENT TO MOTION: (Nader/Fox) to direct staff to continue looking at negotiations with IBWC if
SAD didn't work out.
Councilman Moore questioned who would run the plants,
Minutes
March 30, 1993
Page 8
Roger Fromfelder, Interim General Manager of SAD, stated the wastewater plants, under the district concept,
would be run by the district. The water side would go to the purveyor.
Mayor Nader stated that before voting on the motion he felt he needed to appraise the Council of where he
felt the City needed to be going. The City of San Diego was lobbying in Congress for amendments to the
Clean Water Act that would allow the cities to go to advanced primary with chemical enhancement
combined with an extended outfall and he felt the City should join in their efforts. The issue of who paid
for capacity enhancement and the contract with the City of San Diego for capacity in excess of what was
needed should be addressed. The issue of what would happen if the Clean Water amendments did not pass
or if the Judge ordered secondary treatment should be the City of San Diego's responsibility. On the
reclamation issue the proposal advanced by the City's consultant and others was that it was desirable to
build the plant in a modular or incremental manner. The City should also continue to examine the IBWC
alternative in the event that the other issues were not satisfactorily dealt with at SAD.
AMENDMFANT TO MOTION: 0Nlader/Fox) to incorporate the issues outlined by the Mayor into the motion
on the floor.
Councilman Moore stated the motion was to go to Alternative 2A and continue to work on the eight items.
Another item to be addressed would be fines that San Diego had incurred or would incur because of lack
of compliance with State and/or Federal laws.
Mayor Nader stated that other points contained in the motion were: 1) support for the Clean Water Act
amendment, 2) the modular reclamation consu~uction, 3) continue to pursue options with IBWC, and 4) -
directing staff to prepare a contingent withdrawal from SAD if it appeared that incurfence of debt was )
eminent ptior to solution of the City's concerns.
Councilman Moore requested that direction to staff regarding the potential withdrawal from SAD be removed
from the motion.
Mayor Nader stated he would separate it from the motion.
VOTE ON MOTION AS AMENDED: approved unanimously.
MS (Nader/Fox) to direct staff and the City representatives on SAD to be prepared to withdraw fi'om SAD
if it appeared that SAD was about to consider debt obligation prior to resolution of the issues as outlined
by Council.
Mayor Nader felt it was necessary to send a message to SAD staff and Board that the issues needed to be
moved forward on and negotiated seriously and not expect Chula Vista to participate on any terms they
dictated unless the issues were satisfactorily resolved.
VOTE ON MOTION: approved 3-2 with Horton and Moore opposed.
City Attomey Boogaard stated he understood the motion as a legal advisory since the City Council had the
power to withdraw. Council had delegated to two members that power to extricate Chula Vista from SAD
on the threat of the incurrence of debt that would otherwise preclude it from the next few months.
Mayor Nader agreed with the City Artorney's assessment.
Minutes
March 30, 1993
Page 9
Mr. Lippitt stated that SB1225 had a provision that any time the SAD Board was going to take any action
that would impact the rate payers or incur debt they would have to go back to member agencies and get
an advisory vote by all the legislative bodies.
City Attorney Boogaard stated there was a bonded indebtedness provision that required an advisory vote but
non-bonded indebtedness, which could trigger the extrication clause did not require an advisory vote.
Mr. Fromfelder stated it was his understanding that any action to raise rates or incur debt required an
advisory vote. That had been amended in Sacramento.
Mayor Nader stated the motion dictated that staff research the issue and ff it was the case that no debt could
be incurred without an advisory vote of each legislative body staff would not have to do anything further
other than advising Council. If it was possible to incur debt without an advisory vote staff needed to be
prepared to advise the Committee members to execute withdrawal.
8. EXCURSION TRAIN OPERATIONS ON THE CORONADO BRANCH - A letter was received from The
Western Group, P.O. Box 1544 Ogden, Utah 84402, making a formal proposal to establish excursion train
operations on the Coronado Branch of the SD&AE Railway. (Community Development)
Charles Alban, representing the Western Group, stated they had made a proposal to MTDB to establish an
excursion railroad service. They felt there was a demand for a tourist train and felt it could be a world wide
attraction. They anticipated daily service with an annual ridership of over 200,000.
City Manager Goss stated the staff report was incomplete as it did not address the long term efforts of the
City of Imperial Beach, Coronado, and Chula Vista to establish a bike route that would circle the Southbay.
How the excursion train would fit into that plan would have to be investigated as the railroad right-of-way
was part of the bike route.
Councilman Moore didn't feel that staff time should be set aside until the following questions were
answered: 1) the Western Group's financial ability to accomplish their proposal was established, 2) a
modified traffic study regarding additional railroad crossings, 3) boarding sites in Chula Vista - pro's and
con's of land use, and 4) how to solve the problem if the railroad didn't go anywhere,
Councilman Kindone stated he had placed the item on the agenda because it would be discussed by MTDB
and he wanted the entire Council to be aware of the issue. He requested that staff forward all information
to the Council.
City Manager Goss stated staff had raised the question with MTDB of getting the right-of-way for the
Southbay bike route and had been informed that they were not willing to do that because they wanted to
see the excursion train go in.
Mr. Alban stated he did not feel the two programs were mutually exclusive.

10. MAYOR'S REPORT(S)
· Mayor Nader stated he had received correspondence on the proposed liquor store on Hilltop Drive
and "J" Street and questioned whether that was covered by the Alcohol Retail in CN Zone Ordinance.
City Manager Goss stated that it was not. It was his understanding that the zoning ordinance covered
alcohol sales and all they were doing under the ordinance was modifying what their current sales were. He
was uncertain that the City would take any action on the request.
Richard Emerson, Chief of Police, informed Council that his department had submitted a response to ABC
two weeks ago. ABC would take approximately one month to complete their processing.
Mayor Nader requested that the item be docketed under his report for 4/13/93.
