This phase will complete the improvement of Otay Valley Road from Nirvana Avenue to the Otay Rio Business Park. Since the project is under construction and now is the time to make changes in order to save costs, and since it may be necessary to widen the improvements to accommodate a proposed project on the south side of the river (MCA project), staff has been working with the contractor to make minor changes to accommodate the widening and is negotiating the change order. Staff recommends Council accept the report and direct staff to continue negotiating with the contractor and return to Council with a final report and change order in September 1995. (Director of Public Works) * * END OF CONSENT CALENDAR * * PUBLIC HEARINGS AND RELATED RESOLUTIONS AND ORDINANCES 8. PUBLIC HEARING CONSIDERATION TO VACATE VARIOUS STREETS IN THE OTAY RIO [ BUSINESS PARK - MCA Concerts, Inc. has submitted plans for the construction of an amphitheater on Otay Valley Road, south of the Otay River. The plans show the prqject occupying the property now known as Otay Rio Business Park, a subdivision project whose public improvements were completed in 1993. However, none of the Minutes August 22, 1995 Page 3 lots in the subdivision were developed. MCA's plans include the abandonment of four streets within the business park in order to construct the amphitheater. Staff recommends Council continue the public hearing to 9/5/95. (Director of Public Works) Mayor Hotton stated staff had requested a continuange of the public hearing to the meeting of 9/26/95.

ORAL COMMUNICATIONS None BOARD AND COMMISSION RECOMMENDATIONS None submitted. ACTION ITEMS 9. RESOLUTION 18005 APPROVING THE AMENDED MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING (MOU) WITH THE CALIFORNIA BUSINESS INCUBATOR NETWORK (CBIN) AND THE RELATED SUBCONTRACT BETWEEN THE CALIFORNIA BUSINESS INCUBATOR NETWORK AND BUSINESS CLUSTER DEVELOPMENT - The proposed amendments and related subcontract will update the existing MOU contract to reflect revised benchmarks and timeframes and to provide for performance and regulatory compliance accountability. Staff recommends approval of the resolution. (Director of Community Development) Council action is necessary on this resolution prior to Council action on the following item. Councilmember Moot questioned if Items 9, 10A, 10B, and 10C could be discussed at the same time. Cheryl Dye, Economic Development Manager, responded that all the items were directly related and Council may want to take action concurrently. Mr. Googins felt based on the way it was presented on the agenda that Item 9 should be addressed first. Councilmember Moot requested that staff review the first option regarding the hiring of staff and why it was less preferable. Ms. Dye responded that it was a City program funded via funds received by the City. The City was directly responsible for performance and regulatory compliance. In order for the City to spend EDA monies there were two options: 1) enter into a contract for services as had been done for the Technology Center with Southwestern College; or 2) administer the program directly. In order to do the latter it would require City staffing. It was budgeted that the incubator would be handled under a contract for services. There was an existing MOU with California Business Incubator Network (CBIN) and Business Cluster Development which was under a different set of circumstances prior to receiving EDA funds. In working with them it was staffs experience'that the existing agreement should be focused on fund raising, facility fit-up, tenant solicitation, and general advisory services. Staff felt it would not be appropriate for CBIN to do the day to day supervision. Therefore, staff recommended that the existing agreement be amended to focus on those activities and that the City take over the direct administration. That would put the BEBC Manager and BEBC Administrative Assistant under the City BECA Director. That would help to ensure that all the EDA requirements were adhered to. Minutes August 22, 1995 Page 4 Councilmember Moot questioned if CBIN was not structured in such a manner that they could deal with the regulatory requirements. Ms. Dye replied that CBIN was the advocacy group fbr incubators across the State and their focus had primarily been to act as a catalyst to encourage the start-up of incubators and to assist in that process. That was the purpose for which the City originally entered into a MOU with them. Staff considered extending that to have an agreement that would cover all the EDA requirements, but staff did not feel that was their expertise. Councilmember Moot questioned if CBIN raised any concerns regarding the City hiring two of their employees to run the program. Ms. Dye stated there had been on-going negotiations and at times concerns had been expressed. An agreement had been reached and CBIN and Business Cluster Development had signed the agreement. There had been a great deal of discussion with CBIN and their employees about how the transition would occur. A letter of intent had been drafted which the employees had signed which stated they were fully aware of the terms and conditions of employment with the City, i.e. the same title, same job description, and same salary range. They did go through the City's recruitment and hiring process. Councilmember Rindone stated there were two options for City employment, i.e. hired the next day or retroactive to 7/1/95. He questioned if the employees would have to meet the same hiring standards and requirements for all new City employees. Ms. Dye responded that the City was very involved in the recruitment and hiring. The Personnel Department oversaw the development of the job descriptions, advertising, and formation of the interview panel. The candidates were forwarded to the Director of Community Development for input on final selection, In order for them to be hired they would have to have physicals and the BEBC Manager would have to take a quantitative analysis test and both would have to go through the City orientation. Councilmember Rindone stated it could not be retroactive because they would have to meet the conditions of employment for the City and once they complied with those requirements their hiring could then proceed. He questioned the conditions of the EDA grant and status of the employees if the grant was not continued after the grant period. Ms. Dye responded the funding was spread over 34 months. The employees would be hired as unclassified employees or "at will. employees. It was also stipulated in the ordinance creating the two unclassified positions that the positions were for the term of the grant only. The intent was to form a non-profit organization and continue the program on indefinitely in one form or another. Councilmember Alevy stated the budget for two employees was $I06,000 and questioned if it included benefits. Ms. Dye stated it was total costs of salary and benefits. It was the same salary the employees were currently receiving from CBIN. The fringe benefits were higher with the City. The Manager was equivalent to a Principal Community Development Specialist and the Administrative Assistant was equivalent to an Administrative Office Specialist II. RESOLUTION 18005 OFFERED BY COUNCILMEMBER RINDONE, reading of the text was waived, passed and approved unanhnoasly, 10.A. ORDINANCE 2637 AMENDING SECTION 2.05.010 OF THE MUNICIPAL CODE TO ADD TWO UNCLASSIFIED BORDER ENVIRONMENTAL BUSINESS CLUSTER (BEBC) FULL-TIME POSITIONS (urgency ordinance) - On 6/27/95, Council appropriated the fiscal year 1995/96 (Year I) Border Environmental Commeme Alliance (BECA) budget in the amount of $956,536. The apprnpdation included three separate budgets in the contract with EDA, the program's primary funding source. The three budgets include: (1) the BECA administration budget, i.e. City staff and operational monies; (2) contractual services for the Border Environmental Technology Resource Center; i.e. the contract with Southwestern College; and (3) contractual Minutes August 22, 1995 Page 5 services for the BEBC. Staff is recommending that no contract be executed for administration of the BEBC using EDA monies but be directly administered by the City. Staff recommends Council adopt the urgency ordinance and approve the resolutions. (Director of Community Development) 4/Sth~s vote required. B. RESOLUTION 18006 AMENDING THE FRINGE BENEFIT RESOLUTION FOR MIDDLE MANAGERS AND UNREPRESENTED EMPLOYEES TO INCLUDE BORDER ENVIRONMENTAL BUSINESS CLUSTER FULL-TIME POSITIONS C. RESOLUTION 18007 AMENDING THE FISCAL YEAR 1995/96 CITY BUDGET TO ADD TWO GRANT-FUNDED, UNCLASSIFIED BEBC FULL-TIME POSITIONS ($106,700) AND TO TRANSFER THE BEBC CONTRACTUAL SERVICES ACCOUNT TO THE BECA OPERATIONAL ACCOUNT (100-0262); AUTHORIZING STAFF TO NOTIFY THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT ADMINISTRATION THAT THE BEBC WILL BE DIRECTLY ADMINISTERED BY THE CITY; AND APPROPRIATING $35,083 TO THE CITY'S BECA FISCAL YEAR 1995/96 BUDGET FOR THE PURCHASE OF EQUIPMENT - 4/5th's vote required. Cheryl Dye, Economic Development Manager, informed Council that the EDA had given verbal approval on all actions before Council. Councilmember Rindone referred to page 10-5 regarding staff services and the five employees and requested a memo to Council regarding who the five employees would be along with copies of their resumes. ORDINANCE 2636 PLACED AS AN URGENCY ORDINANCE, AND RESOLUTIONS 18006 AND 18007 OIq~ERED BY COUNCILMEMBER RINDONE, reading of the text was waived. Councilmember Moot questioned the need to purchase new equipment for the employees versus utilization of used equipment. Ms. Dye stated there was no existing equipment available for the employees. Mr. Morris informed Council that most of the equipment would be computer equipment and there were no additional computers available within the City. VOTE ON MOTION: approved unanimously. 11. RESOLUTION 18008 APPROVING THE COMPOSITION OF THE INTERIM ADVISORY BOARD AND APPROVING IN CONCEPT THE PROPOSED COMPOSITION OF THE FULL BORDER ENVIRONMENTAL COMMERCE ALLIANCE (BECA) ADVISORY BOARD - BECA has immediate need for an Interim Advisory Board to guide Community Development/BECA staff in the early stages of project implementation. Staff recommends approval of the resolution. (Director of Community Development) Cheryl Dye, Economic Development Manager, introduced the new BECA Director, Jeff Bogart. Mayor Horton questioned if it would be appropriate for Council to appoint an alternate on the Interim Advisory Board. Ms. Dye felt it would be appropriate. Councilmember Rindone stated except with one exception all the members of the Task Force that had worked on the project for two years to help create the alliance had been excluded from the Advisory Board. He questioned why they had been excluded. Ms. Dye responded there would be opportunity when the permanent Board was established. In terms of the Interim Board, it included sponsors, SAIC which had been involved from the inception although not formally appointed to the Task Force, EBI which had been a consultant and involved with the Task Force, and SDG&E which was Minutes August 22, 1995 Page 6 currently working with the City to become a sponsor and donate funds. Staff also took into consideration representation from local governmental jurisdictions and that was why South County EDC had be~n included (support had been received from Imperial Beach, National City, City of San Diego, and County of San Diego). There needed to be representation from the City's partner, San Diego Adjustment Program which was the other EDA funded regional economic program which was represented by the San Diego Technology Council. A non- profit environmental group had also been included which was the U.S./Mexico Border Progress Foundation. There was also a representative from the academic community, UCSD which had been working with the Task Force. She felt Councilmember Rindone's comments were well taken and it would be looked at during the freTnation of the final board. Council had directed staff to ensure that there was heavy private sector involvement. Councilmember Rindone questioned the purpose of the permanent Advisory Board. The current proposal for the permanent Advisory Board included 30 members and he did not feel that was realistic or workable. Ms. Dye replied the purpose of the Board would be to work with staff to help implement the program, help staff to develop policies for recommendation to Council for the program, act as a conduit to other service providers throughout the region to leverage resources and coordinate programs, play a major role in marketing and attracting major resources to the program, and lending credibility to the program. The list presented was a starting point and included the categories of partners staff felt should be included. The San Diego Technology Council had a very ~argebeardanduti~izedc~mmitte~swithm~stacti~ntakingp~a~ewithinasma~Iexecutive~~mmittee~ Staffwanted to analyze those options and return with recommendations. Councilmember Rindone stated he was reluctant due to the number of members on the Advisory Board. With such a large number members did not have the "buy in" required to make a successful board. He looked forward to seeing the staff recommendations and felt the recommendation for the Interim Board was acceptable. He felt representation from the small environmental businesses was lacking and that it would send a message that the City was not interested in small companies. Ms. Dye stated the Interim Board included the Greater San Diego Chamber of Commerce and the individual being recommended represented a two person firm. Staff also wanted to see an environmental company in the Southbay represent the South County Economic Development Council. The permanent Board included an environmental dry cleaner and a recyeler, both small businesses. Staff would review the general representation. Councilmember Moot volunteered as the alternate for the Council on the Board RESOLUTION 18008 OFFERED BY MAYOR HORTON, reading of the text was waived. Councilmember Moot to be the alternate for the Council on the Board.

Councilmember Rindone stated he would vote for the resolution because it specifically addressed the Interim Board and concept and he was comfortable with that. He did not want his "yes" vote to be misunderstood as support for the size of the permanent Board. VOTE ON MOTION: approved unanimously. 12.A. RESOLUTION 18009 APPROVING AN AGREEMENT WITH THE CITY OF LEMON GROVE REGARDING THE PROVISION OF ANIMAL CONTROL SERVICES IN LEMON GROVE, AND AUTHORIZING THE MAYOR TO EXECUTE SAID AGREEMENT - The Police Department, through its Animal Regulation Division, provides animal regulation services for the cities of Chula Vista, National City, and Imperial Beach. Lemon Grove city staff contacted the City Manager in December 1994 to request that the t-~vo cities ¸m T Minutes August 22, 1995 Page 7 work cooperatively to explore the option of Lemon Grove contracting for such services. A proposed five-year agreement was developed by staff of beth cities. The proposed agreement provides the same level of animal control, animal shelter and animal licensing services to the citizens of Lemon Grove as are provided for the citizens of Chula Vista. Lemon Grove has agreed to pay the actual Employee Services costs associated with providing the proposed level of services plus applicable Full Cost Recovery program charges.

The minutes will reflect the published agenda order. OTHER BUSINESS 13. CITY MANAGER'S REPORT(S) a. Scheduling of meetings. Mr. Morris stated staff needed additional direction regarding the amphitheater tour scheduled for Saturday, September 23rd. Chris Salomone, Director of Community Development, stated it appeared that Council and staff would only be able to tour two facilities in one day. He then reviewed the five facilities within the area that could be toured: 1) Irvine Meadows Amphitheater, 2) Pacific Amphitheater, 3) Greek Theater, 4) Universal Amphitheater, and 5) Glen Helen Pavilion. He recommended that Council tour the Glen Helen Pavilion with the Greek Theater or Pacific Amphitheater as the second choice. The Glen Helen Pavilion was most like the two proposals for the City, i.e. large out door state-of-the-art amphitheater. The Greek Theater was small but was run by Nederlander and had plays which the Glen Helen Pavilion did not have. The Pacific Amphitheater had experienced problems with sound impacts, traffic impacts, litigation, operational problems, etc. He felt it would be a 10 hour day. If Council wanted to tour the Greek Theater and Universal Amphitheater it would require less time and Council would be talking to a Nederlander and MCA facility. Councilmember Alevy suggested that Council tour th~ Glen Helen Pavilion first and then the Greek Theater, if time permitted they could tour the Pacific Amphitheater on the way back as an alternate. That would afford Council the ability to see a facility of comparable size and then tour facilities of both developers. Mayor Horton stated she had requested that staff invite the Planning Commission on the tour. Minutes August 22, 1995 Page 8 Mr. Salomone informed Council that the Chair of the Planning Comnfission would be on the tour and he would speak to the other members regarding their attendance. Councilmember Rindone stated the Planning Commission would be hearing the request the first week of September and they may want to take a tour prior to hearing the proposals. He was concerned that if Council toured a facility operated/owned by one of the developers and not the other that it would be mis-read as providing undue influence. He felt Council should tour the Glen Helen Pavilion due to the sirailarity of the facilities and then tour the Greek Theater and Universal Amphitheater because they were the other two operators. Due to their proximity to each other he felt there could be time to include both. Council could also travel the night before if necessary. Mayor Holton did not feel the Universal Amphitheater (MCA facility) would be similar to anything proposed for the City. The proposal by Nederlander would have theatrical plays and she wanted to see the difference between the two amphitheaters because she was not familiar with how they would be different. Council was not looking at companies, but different types of facilities that might be located within the community. Councilmember Alevy stated whichever of the two proposals approved, the City was guaranteed one of the two best companies. He did not see it as an issue of Nederlander versus MCA. There were other issues regarding location, EIR's, etc. that had to be reviewed by Council. He felt Pacific Amphitheater was no longer an amphitheater because it was enclosed. The Greek Theater would be similar in shape and share the same environmental concerns because it was located in the middle of a park. The Glen Helen Pavilion would be similar in size. He felt Irvine Meadows might be better to tour than the Pacific Amphitheater which was located in the nfiddle of a fair grounds. Councilmember Padilia felt it important to look at the designs and utility of the facilities so Council would understand their options and what they wanted to bring into the City. Including a building/operator was an important consideration. If possible, he wanted to tour a facility either built or operated, or both, by both the developers with projects before the City. Council needed to see what they did and how they did it. Mayor Horton stated that would be a good idea if MCA had a comparable facility in close proximity to San Diego. They were two of the best operators in the country and that was not the issue. Council would be looking at the type of facility that would be housed in the community. MSC (Horton/Alevy) to set the tour for Saturday, September 23rd and include the Planning Commission members. Council would tour the Glen Helen Pavilion first, the Greek Theater second, and if time allowed, tour Irvine Meadows on the route back. Approved 4-1 with Rindone opposed. b. Mr. Morris stated staff had coordinated a forum for the affordable housing program for the EastLake planned community. The forum was scheduled for 8/30/95 at EastLake High School at 7:00 p.m. 14. MAYOR'S REPORT(S) a. Application of furlough to City Councilmembers. Continued from the meeting of 8115195. Mayor Holton requested that the item be continued indefinitely. b.

MSUC (Horton/Alevy) to ratify the appointment of Audrey Hoke to the Safety Commission. d.

Minutes August 22, 1995 Page 9 Councilmember Rindone stated Council needed to meet prior to meeting with the three individuals. They could not conduct the evaluations unless there was a consensus of the Council. After reviewing their calendars, Council set the following dates for evaluations: 1) City Manager - Monday, September 18th at 5:30 p.m.; and 2) City Attorney and City Clerk - Monday, October 2nd at 5:30 p.m. 15.
