Staff recommends approval of the resolution. (Director of Personnel) Pulled from the Consent Calendar. Minutes January 12, 1993 Page 2 Councilman Moore stated that Council had concluded that the Board of Ethics would not be involved in the ethics of the City staff. Their task would be the members of the Council, personnel hired by Council, and those appointed to boards/commissions/committees. The Board of Ethics reviewed it because Council had directed that it be sent to them for comments. It wasn't their duty to write the code and he had a problem that one member of a board would get involved with City staff. Mayor Nader stated he would have to review the ordinance creating the Board of Ethics before commenting on what their authority was. He felt the appropriate action would be to advise Mr. McNutt of staffs rationale of why it had been presented to Council now and the history of Council's action. Councilman Rindone questioned whether the proposal before Council was the proposal that was reviewed by the Board of Ethics. Candy Boshell, Director of Personnel, responded that the proposal had not been modified or changed. There were several insignificant comments that paralleled the Councfl's comments. MS (MooreJRindone) to approve staff recommendation on Item 5A. Mayor Nader questioned whether the City Attorney was comfortable with the code, as drafted, that if an employee failed to fully disclose information requested that approval could be null and void. City Attorney Boogaard responded that he was comfortable with that understanding. AMENDMENT TO MOTION: (Nader/Fox) amend the code to provide that the City Manager notify Council when a management employee was given approval for an activity under the code. City Attorney Boogaard recommended that it be an enhancement under General Prohibitions, 3a, last line. VOTE ON AMENDMF2qT: approved unanimously. Councilman Rindone referred to Item VI, last three words of sentence, 'term of service" and recommended they be changed to 'termination of employment and/or service with the City and Redevelopment Agency". City Attorney Boogaard stated it was his opinion that it would not violate any of the meet and confer requirements. AMENDMENT TO MOTION: (Rindone/Moore) amend Item VI, last sentence to read: 'May be subject to disciplinary action up to and including termination of employment and/or service with the City and Redevelopment Agency'. Mayor Nader questioned whether it would be acceptable to say * employment and/or sex-vice' and eliminate the City and Redevelopmant Agency. Upon the advise of the City Attorney he felt the motion as presented was limiting to the City. Amendment agreeable to the Maker of the Motion and Second. VOTE ON MOTION: approved unanimously. RESOLUTION 16949, AS AMENDED, OFFERED BY MAYOR NADER, reading of the text was waived, passed and approved Ilnan~mously. Councilman Rindone stated the code did not address whether it applied to employees or officers that had left the City w/thin the last twenty-four months. City Attorney Boogaard responded there was a current provision in the Municipal Code prohibiting Council, City Manager, or City Attorney employment within one year of termination of service. MS (Rindonef/qader) direct staff to review former management employees within the one year period and report back to Council. Minutes January 12, 1993 page 3 City Attorney Boogaard stated Financial Interrelationships were listed in A1-7. Staff was now evaluating, as a result of Councilman Rindone's question the legal authority for such a revolving door policy. Staff would also be evaluating the policy issues of applying such a policy. VOTE ON MOTION: approved unanimously. MSUC (Nader/Fox) staff is to respond to Mr. McNutt with the staff recommendation and add the history of what the Council referral had been and action taken on Item 6. 7. RESOLUTION 16950 REVISING THE EXECUTIVE SALARY BANDS FOR FISCAL YEAR 1992-93 Staff recommends approval of the resolution. (Administration) Pulled from the Consent Calendar. Mayor Nader stated he had not voted for management raises due to potential budgetary cuts and questioned how the $7,000 flex plan figure had been determined. It had not been included in the original resolution approved by Council last year. City Manager Goss responded that it had not been included and due to the letter of understanding he had with the Assistant City Manager the figure was in concert with that. It was somewhat higher than a department head flex plan but was below the City Manager's. Mayor Nader stated the Council had given the City Manager the direction and authority to provide the compensation to the Assistant City Manager. He questioned whether Council could direct the raise to the Assistant City Manager and, if they did so, it would have to be with a salary band adjusunent which would apply to any new assistant city manager in the future. City Attorney Boogaard responded that Council created a legal structure to pay management classes and ff Council wished to modify the legal structure for payment they needed to provide that the Assistant City Manager would be exempt from the system they created. Councilman Rindone stated it was not a salary increase but a salary realignment. The Council chose not to increase the salary of the Assistant City Manager but to award it in a different form of compensation, salary in lieu of other fringe benefits that had been in effect. City Attorney Boogaard stated a salary band was a delegation of authority to the City Manager to fix salaries for staff. Councilman Rindone stated the action being requested was not inconsistent with what had been done in the past. City Manager Goss informed Council that all executive managers had the same flex plan except for the City Manager, City Attorney, and Assistant City Manager. That had been consistent practice with the assertion of the City Attorney and Assistant City Manager. Councilman Rindone noted that only the Assistant City Manager was included in the E-5 band and questioned whether it would create an inconsistency. City Manager Goss stated it would not create an inconsistency because it was an existing situation. He was not sure there was a relationship to being in the executive band and the amount of the flex plan. Those amounts, in terms of salary and flex plan, were negotiated when the Assistant City Manager was hired. Councilman Rindone questioned what the justification was for a higher flex plan for one employee over the others in the same band. City Manager Goss responded that the Assistant City Manager was already higher than all the others. The economic terms under which he was hired included a higher flex plan that other executive managers. It was his understanding with the Assistant City Manager that the elements of his salary and fringe benefits would be the same as the City Attorney. Minutes January 12, 1993 Page 4 Mayor Nader questioned whether that had been approved by the Council. City Manager Goss responded that it was not. It was a written offer that had been accepted by the Assistant City Manager when hired. MS (Rindone/Horton) to adopt the staff recommendation for the adjustment in the salary band, in conformance with previous Counc~ action, and have the City Manager come back with a separate recommendation and justification regarding the flex plan recommendation for the Assistant City Manager. Mayor Nader stated he would agree with the separate report but would vote no due to the pay raise. VOTE ON MOTION: approved 4-1 with Nader opposed. 8. RESOLUTION 16951 APPROVING SUBCONTRACT AGREEMENT WITH THE COUNTY OF SAN DIEGO TO PERFORM TASKS FOR THE CITY'S HOUSEHOLD HAZARDOUS WASTE EDUCATION PROJECT AND AUTHORIZING THE MAYOR TO EXECUTE THE AGREEMENT AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXERCISE THE OPTION TO EXTEND THE SUBCONTRACT AS DEEMED APPROPRIATE - In July, 1992, Council approved acceptance of a $25,050 grant to develop a household hazardous waste education project.

Items 9A and 9B were discussed concurrently with Item 8. 10. RESOLUTION 16954 APPROPRIATING FUNDS FOR THE PURCHASE OF ALERT/WARNING PAGING EQUIPMENT UNDER A GRANT RECEIVED BY THE CITY ~ The Fire Department (Disaster Services Office) requests the appropriation of funds to purchase radio receivers for disaster alert notification. The funds will be totally reimbursed to the City with Federal grant funds. Staff recommends approval of the resolution. (Fire Chief) 4/Sth's vote required. Minutes January 12, 1993 page 5 11. RESOLUTION 16955 APPROVING AGREEMENT WITH THE SWEETWATER UNION HIGH SCHOOL DISTRICT PROVIDING FOR MASS FEEDING OF CITY WORKERS DURING A MAJOR EMERGENCY OR DISASTER - The City's Disaster Services Office desires to enter into an agreement with the Sweetwater Union High School District to have them provide meals to City disaster workers during a major emergency or disaster. Staff recommends approval of the resolution. (Fire Chief) 12. RESOLUTION 16956 AMFANDING THE SWEETWATER PARK PROJECT AGREEMENT WITH THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA - In 1984, San Diego County Tansferred Sweetwater Park to the City as part of a court settlement. The grant agreement which indicates who will operate and maintain the parkland was never amended to provide for the new ownership. Staff recommends approval of the resolution. (Director of Paxks and Recreation) 13.A. REPORT REQUEST FOR APPROVAL TO UTILIZE PARKS AND RECREATION DEPARTMENT TRUST FUNDS FOR PURCHASING RECREATION AND PARKS SUPPLIES AND EQUIPMENT UNDER A TRUST FUND EXPENDITURE POLICY - The Parks and Recreation Department is requesting to use its Trust Funds to purchase needed equipment and supplies to support its programs for the community. In 1 ight of current and furare budget constraints, the Depa~ hnent must be innovative in managing its resources. To this end, and as a result of Council direction in 1991, the Department is in the process of structuring a Revenue Enhancement Plan which would raise revenue for the Department and relieve the General Fund from Department program expendirares. Staff recommends Council accept the report and approve the resolution. (Director of Parks and Recreation) Pulled from the Consent Calendar. Councilman Rindone questioned whether there was a relationship to the trust fund for full cost recovery. Jess Valenzuela, Director of Paxks and Recreation, responded that the department was achieving the targeted goal of full cost recovery. They provided approximately 20% of the revenues from classes and programs to the General Fund. Under the code the City had the authority to increase the fees depending on whether the classes or program costs increased. Councilman Rindone stated he had a problem with the 20% going into the General Fund. He felt it should go back into the programs and not the General Fund. RESOLUTION 16957 OFFERED BY COUNCILMAN RINDONE, reading of the text was waived, passed and approved unanimously. B. RESOLUTION 16957 APPROPRIATING $21,300 FOR EXPENDITURE FOR SUPPLIES AND EQUIPMENT AND AUTHORIZING TRANSFER OF PARKS AND RECREATION TRUST FUNDS TO THE GENERAL FUND - 4/Sth's vote required. * * END OF CONSENT CALENDAR * * PUBLIC HEARINGS AND I~,I.ATED RESOLUTIONS AND ORDINANCES 14. PUBLIC HEARiNG LOCAL CONSISTENCY CHECKLIST FOR THE REGIONAL GROWTH MANAGEMENT STRATEGY AND CONGESTION MANAGEMENT PROGRAM The "self certification' checklist was prepared by SANDAG to be used by local and regional government agencies to evaluate consistency of their general and community plans, policies, regulations, and ordinances with the Regional Growth Management Strategy. Staff recommends approval of the resolution. (Director of Planning) Minutes January 12, 1993 Page 6 Councilman Moore felt the first paragraph of the resolution should be amended to state "Proposition C was an advisory vote approved by the voters~. 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. Mayor Nader stated Supervisor Bilbray had proposed a one year moratorium on regulations until all the cities had adopted their own regulations on trip reduction and congestion management. It appeared to him that the proposed document stated Chula Vista was waiting until the County took action and questioned why the City was waiting. Robert Leiter, Director of Planning, responded that staff was beginning work on an employee trip reduction program. In terms of land use regulations staff was, on an interim basis, applying trip reduction strategies to development proposals. Staff was also working on a SANDAG regional committee to develop county-wide strategies. He suggested the staff report back on the status of the programs the City was involved in and get further direction from Council at that time. Mayor Nader stated many of the items were included in his environmental agenda and he requested an update. He felt those items currently being done by the City should be included in the report. He suggested that rather than waiting for APCD the City should acknowledge that the hillside ordinances were extremely discretionary as to whether they were applied to a given project. With most projects, the City was also applying hillside preservation strategies but it was not binding as a matter of ordinance in all steep slope areas. The tightening up of the hillside ordinances was also in his environmental agenda. Mayor Nader questioned whether the regional growth management strategy was talking about permanent or temporary preservation of agricultural land. Mr. Leiter felt it was addressing both. Permanent preservation where it was appropriate but also trying to phase urban development so it would not inadvertently stop the agricultural lands prematurely. Councilman Fox questioned whether #8 referred to the mortgage certificates. It was his understanding that the City's participation had been greater than two. Mr. Leiter stated he would have to report back to Council. Councilman Moore felt the report should be approved with minor changes, approved by Council, and forwarded to SANDAG. Councilman Rindone felt the concerns were not germane to the overall intent of the report and he supported the approval. Councilwoman Horton stated the City had provided quite a few loans through the City in 1992 but the report requested 1991 information. Councilman Fox stated he could support the report with the understanding that staff would correct Item 4 if found to be incorrect. Mayor Nader stated the report could be corrected before forwarding the report to SANDAG. The other items he wanted to see treated differen~y were: 1) the City was not implementing any policies for the permanent preservation of agricultural lands with the explanation of what was being done to assure allowable agricultural use as development progressed; 2) at the end of the report, include a catalog of other items that were curren~y pending staff referrals, i.e. mixed use and trip reduction items, sensitive lands protection, etc. which had not been adopted by the City but was under consideration. Minutes January 12, 1993 page 7 MS (Nader/Fox) to amad 1) Item 4, page 14-14, indicate there was curren~y no provision in the Chula Vista General Plan for permanent preservation of agricultural lands within the City, however, some agricultural and community garden use remained as an option for parts of the Otay Ranch development which would constitute some permanent preservation; 23 have staff attach, as an addandum to the check list, those rdevant measures ~fiy referred to staff by Council and were at one stage or another under consideration, Le. trip reduction policy, mixed use policies, etc. Councilman Moore felt trip reduction should be included under "Trip Reduction" page 14-6; agriculture should be included on page 14-14. Mayor Nader stated he would direct staff to take the items under staff referral and place them in the appropriate section. VOTE ON MOTION: approved unanimously. MSUC (1Moore/Horton) to amend the first Whereas in the Resolution to read 'Whereas, Proposition C, an advisory ballot measure, approved by the voters....'. RESOLUTION 16958, AS AMENDED, OFFERED BY MAYOR NADER, reading of the text was waived, passed and approved unanimously. RESOLUTION 16958 TRANSMITTING THE LOCAL CONSISTENCY CHECKLIST FOR THE REGIONAL GROWTH MANAGEMENT PROGRAM 15. PUBLIC HEARING PCM-93-07: CONSIDERATION TO CHANGE THE NAME OF OTAY LAKES ROAD TO TELEGRAPH CANYON ROAD BETVVEEN THE INTERSECTION OF OTAY LAKES ROAD AND TELEGRAPH CANYON ROAD TO WUESTE ROAD - CITY INITIATED - In July 1992, Councfi directed staff to proceed with the renaming of the east/west segment of Otay Lakes Road (approximately 3.5 miles) to Telegraph Canyon Road. Staff recommends approval of the resolution. (Director of Planning) Councilman Fox questioned why the County was not interested in changing their portion of the road. Robert Leiter, Director of Planning, responded that staff did correspond with the County and had received a response. He felt there was confusion on the part of the County staff regarding the specific areas being changed. He suggested that staff contact the County staff at a higher level and try to get a better understanding of what their objections were. City Manager Goss stated it was a historical issue due to the fact that Otay Lakes Road served Otay Lakes. In past years staff had talked to the County at a higher level and they were not receptive to any change. 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. Councilman Moore requested that staff contact the post office and affected properties and inform them of the effective date of change. RESOLUTION 16959 OFFERED BY COUNCILMAN MOORE, reading of the text was waived, passed and approved 4-0-1 with Nader absent. RESOLUTION 16959 APPROVING THE STREET NAME CHANGE FOR OTAY LAKES ROAD TO TELEGRAPH CANYON ROAD BETWEEN THE INTERSECTION OF OTAY LAKES ROAD AND TELEGRAPH CANYON ROAD TO WUESTE ROAD Minutes January 12, 1993 Page 8 16.

ACTION ITEMS 17. RESOLUTION 16961 EXPRESSING THE CITY'S PREFERENCE THAT THE TRANSFER OF JONES CABLE INTERESTS IN THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA TO COX CABLE SHOULD NOT OCCUR - Staff recommends approval of the resolution. (Administration) City Attorney Boogaard distributed an amended resolution which created an interim opposition to the sale until additional information was provided and reserving until a future time, final and complete opposition until the City received the information requested. The City had recently learned that Jones had agreed to sell their San Diego assets, or some portion to Cox Cable. Staff felt it would have an anti-competitive and deteriorating affect on the quality of senrice and cable prices. Staff felt the existing franchise with Cox required that if Cox had participated in the application for Federal Trade Commission approval, it was incumbent upon them to submit a copy of the application to the City. In addition to the resolution, a proposed letter was drafted which would be submitted by staffs authority requesting additional information and reserving in the Council the right to assert the positions listed on pages 3-4 of the proposed letter. RESOLUTION 16961, AS REVISED, OFFERED BY MAYOR NADER, reading of the text was waived, passed and approved unanimously. Mayor Nader stated he had received a message from the vice-president of Jones Cable and he had been unable to get back to him. Therefore, he would resenre the right to bring the resolution back to Council for reconsideration. Minutes January 12, 1993 page 9 Bob McRane, Senior Vice-President and Manager of Cox Cable, informed Counc~ he had not received a copy of the revised resolution and therefore, was unable to respond. Mayor Nader trailed the item until Mr. McRane had an opportunity to review the resolution. Mr. McRane stated that any information requested of Cox should be done officially through the City Attorney's office and they would respond appropriately. The anticipated purchase of the Jones Cable Television System by Cox Cable did not involve the City of Chula Vista. The franchise agreement involved the County of San Diego. There were no assets that were currently located in the City of Chula Vista that were part of the transaction. Mayor Nader questioned whether Mr. McRane was referring to the cable Jones had been allowed to lay in the City while litigation was pending. Mr. McRane stated it was excluded from the contract. A transmitter on one of the local mountains was also excluded. City Attorney Booguard stated that if the City received proof, in the form of documentation, of Mr. McRane's statements it would affect the staff recommendation. He requested that Council rescind the approval of the resolution for one week. Martin Aultbaum, Chula Vista Cable, informed Council there would be a trial and possible dissolution of Chula Vista Cable on 1/29/93. He requested that the City say something to the Court. He recommended that before Council took action on the resolution they check with him regarding dissolution. Anything Council did should be in the light of protecting competition. City Attorney Booguard requested that Mr. Aultbaum's request be referred to his office with authority, as he deemed appropriate, join Amicus support in the litigation. MS (Nader/Rindone) to refer the issue to the City Attorney with authorization, as he deemed appropriate, to join in Amicus support of the litigation. Councilman Moore stated he was not prepared to vote on a motion without knowing the intent of the City Attorney's and Mr. Aultbaum. City Attorney Booguard stated it would be authority to examine the litigation regarding the dissolution of Chula Vista Cable and if it would mean the end of Chula Vista Cable as a cable provider, and if the City's best interest could be advanced by preventing the dissolution by Amicus participation, he would send a letter to the court indicating the City's interest in keeping the corporate entity alive. SUBSTITUTE MOTION: eqader/Rindone) direct the City Attorney to report back to Council prior to exercising any discretion to file an Amicus with the court unless the City Attomey discovered there was not sufficient time for such a report to be made. If the City was against a time limitation the City Attorney would be authorized, in his discretion, to file Amicus. Approved 4-1 with Moore opposed. City Attorney Boogaard stated that in light of Mr. McRane's information he would request that Council rescind Resolution 16922 and reschedule for 1/16/92. MSUC (Moore/Rindone) to reconsider Resolution 16922 and re. schedule on 1/16/93. Minutes January 12, 1993 Page 10 MSUC (Nader/Fox) direct the City Attorney to communicate with the FTC, on behalf of the City, that the City was looking at the matter to determine whether any facilities capable of serving Chula Vista and affecting the City were involved. The representation had been made to the City by Cox that there were no facilities capable of serving Chula Vista involved, pending verification of that representation the City did not intend to take a position on the transaction but there could be follow-up communication after obtaining that information. The City Attorney is directed and authorized, ff he receives any infor/nation that would indicate that competition in Chula lfista could be affected by the Jones/Cox transaction, to promp~y communicate the Council's concerns to the FTC. 18. RESOLUTION 16962 RESCINDING RESOLUTION 15591 WHICH PROHIBITS ON-STREET PARKING IN THE 400 BLOCK OF " STREET - On 3/17/92, Council requested a six month evaluation report regarding the effectiveness of the painted median island in place on "L" Street, keeping the westerly end open allowing left turn access. Staff recommends approval of the resolution. (Director of Public Works) Councilman Fox stated the Executive Director of the Boys and Girls Club had expressed concern that problems could be solved if the parking lot was recon~gured so ingress to the lot could be achieved on Fifth Avenue. Their other concern was that if on-street parking was allowed on "L" Street, vehicles turning right would not have adequate view of the traffic. John Lippitt, Director of Public Works, responded that it had been discussed and the striping could easily be reconfigured. The problem with entering on Fifth Avenue and exiting on "L" Street was with the buses or parents dropping off children. The major objection was from the school district. RESOLUTION 16962 OFFERED BY COUNCILMAN MOORE, reading of the text was waived. Charles Schrieder, 440 "L" Street, Chula Vista, CA, stated he represented the property owners on the 400 block of "L" Street and they basically supported the staff recommendation. They wanted to keep their parking and were in favor of the reconfiguration of the youth center parking lot. VOTE ON MOTION: approved unanimously. 19. REPORT FLOOR AREA RATIO REQUIREMENTS FOR SINGLE-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL ZONES - Council requested that staff provide input as to whether the City's existing Floor Area Ratio system is the best method to use regarding requirements for single-family zones, what other alternatives exist, and whether different FAR requirements should be imposed in older parts of the City. Staff recommends that Council direct staff to prepare an amendment to the Municipal Code which would modify the Floor Area Ratio requirement for single-family zones to exclude open patio covers, and would provide for a "sliding- scale" FAR requirement in certain Planned Communities. (Director of Planning) Councilman Fox stated his neighborhood, off the end of east "J" Street, would be affected and questioned whether he should abstain from participation. City Attorney Boogaard questioned what percentage of the land area in the City or residential units would be affected by the decision. Robert Leiter, Director of Planning, responded that it was intended that the staff recommendation only apply to older planned communities, less than 10% of the total zoned residential areas. Councilman Fox's area was included. It had been proposed as a generalized approach and staff would come back with an ordinance with specific boundaries. Minutes January 12, 1993 page 11 City Attorney Boogaard stated Councilman Fox should not participate if he was one of a 10% factor. Councilman Moore stated he could support the first part of the staff recommendation but had a problem with the sliding scale. He felt it was extremely arbitrary. There had only been nine requests in 6 1/2 years and he did not feel it needed to be changed. Councilman Rindone expressed concern that many property owners on the west side were unaware of the ability to request a waiver and the process. He referred to page 19-2, second paragraph, which stated there were only two other cities that utilized the FAR standards. He suggested that Council consider raising the standard to 50% and look at not counting the open patios and open porches. He was not focusing on lots above 7,000 sq. ft. The City needed to provide consistency and a standard to assist the older homes. MS (Rindone/Nader) staff is to bring back a report analyzing the impact on increasing the FAR standard from 45% to 50%, exempt open patio and open porches. Councilwoman Horton questioned why not just consider the sliding scale FAR which was utilized in the newer areas of Chula Vista. Councilman Rindone stated he would be comfortable with that if the minimum standard was raised from 45% to 50%. Mr. Leiter stated there was more design control in the newer planned communities. The City could fmd situations where the higher percentage would result in some development that did not have the same quality design as it would in a planned community. Councilwoman Hotton felt the change could generate interest in rehabilitating homes in the older neighborhoods. Mr. Leiter stated staff could review the recommendation and report back to Council. AMF_.ND~ TO MOTION: (RindonefNader) to include a sliding scale with 5096. Harold D. West, 4050 Palm Drive, Bonita, CA, stated the 40% was originally for a footprint and was now 45% which included the second story, garage and overhang all added together. He felt it should be 60-65% or a complete elimination of the FAR. He felt Council had a good chance to do away with unnecessary regulations. Joe Garcia, 484 Fifth Avenue, Chula Vista, CA, felt the reslxictions on smaller homes was obstructing the rights of the property owners. He also felt regulations were not being enforced equally. AMENDMENT TO MOTION: (Nader/Rindone) refer back to staff for input fxom the Planning Commition. VOTE ON MOTION AS AMENDED: approved 4-0-0-1 with Fox abstairdng. Mr. Leiter stated staff could get back to the Planning Commission within the next thirty days and then back to Council within two to three weeks after that. Mayor Nader stated that staff did not need to go to the Planning Commission before the report could be worked on. Concurrent recommendations from the Planning Commission and staff was acceptable. * * * Council recessed at 8:36 p.m. and reconvened at 8:46 p.m. * * * Minutes January 12, 1993 Page 12 ITEMS pLflJ.RI~ FROM THE CONSENT CALENDAR Items pulled: 5a, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 13.

Minutes January 12, 2993 page 13 21. MAYOR'S REPORT{S) Mayor Nader stated he would trail the majority of the items for one week at the request of staff. a. Report on vehicle usage. Mayor Nader stated that upon the advice of the City Attorney he would address the Council from the podium. He reviewed the memorandum sent to Council which recommended that use of the Mayor's vehicle be left as it had been for the past 12 years or more, which was use of a city vehicle as part of the Mayor's compensation package. He had given up his personal car when he took the position as it was understood that a vehicle was part of the Mayor's compensation package. He felt the tracking of personal usage would be cumbersome paperwork. He also felt the next time acquisition of a vehicle was made there should be firm guidelines set as to the type of vehicle and mileage standards. The taxpayers were getting a better deal under the status quo than with a car allowance. MOTION: (Fox) adopt the Mayor's recommendation and allow him to use the vehicle as he is currently using it. Mayor Pro Tem Rindone requested that Councilman Fox explain status quo. Councilman Fox responded that when the Mayor assumed office he was given a vehicle which he could use for unlimited business and personal use. He was also given insurance and maintenance benefits. He felt the status quo should be in existence until there was a new mayor or new vehicle. MOTION SECONDED BY COUNCILWOMAN HORTON. AMENDMEJqT TO MOTION: tHorton) the situation with the Mayor's vehicle is to remain status quo while Tim Nader is Mayor, after that the issue should be brought back for a revision of the policy. AMENDMENT ACCEPTED BY COUNCILMAN FOX. Councilman Moore stated he objected to unlimited personal use of a City vehicle outside of the City but did not have a problem with unlimited personal use in the City. He felt the policy should be the same as approved for the City Manager, i.e. 2,500 miles outside the City for personal use. Mayor Pro Tern Rindone concurred with Councilman Moore. He was unaware of any comment in a ballot measure, impartial analysis, arguments or rebuttals regarding fringe benefits, benefit package, or use of a City vehicle for the Mayor. He had talked with the previous Mayor regarding personal usage and at no time did he use the vehicle outside of San Diego County. He felt the policy should be 2,500 miles outside of San Diego County and unlimited use for City business. Councilwoman Hotton questioned whether the Mayor would accept a policy of 2,500 miles outside of San Diego County for personal use. Mayor Nader responded that was a change and he could live with that policy. Mayor Pro Tem Rindone stated he had misspoken and that it should have been 2,500 outside the City of Chula Vista. He would support the same policy as adopted for the City Manager. SUBSTITU'TE MOTION: (Rindone/Moore) to authorize a City owned vehide for the Mayor, unlimited business use, and a cap of 2,500 miles outside of the City of Chula VLsta for personal use. Minutes January 12, 1993 Page 14 Jim Thomson, Deputy City Manager, informed Council that staff had verified the fact that one election ballot argument, in opposition, did indicate the Mayor had unlimited use of a City vehicle. Mayor Nader stated he had referred to the 1988 election in his memorandum. Council had also discussed the issue prior to the placement of the ballot issue. VOTE ON AlVlENDIVIENT: CHorton/Fox) Motion failed, 2-2-0-1 with Moore and Rindone opposed and Nadsc absr~inlng. VOTE ON ORIGINAL MOTION: (FoX/Hot-ton) Motion failed, 2-:2-0-1 with Moore and Rindone opposed and Nader abslnaining. City Manager Goss stated that what was included in the ballot argument was reflective of what the public's understanding was of the policy. The issue was trailed to allow time for staff to bring back the election information for Council review. City Manager Goss handed out a copy of the ballot argument for the 1988 election and stated that a similar comment had been included in the ballot argument for the 1984 election. Mayor Nader stated the previous Mayor had used his car throughout the County of San Diego and his usage was never questioned. Although he had been unable to verify it, he felt the practice went back to Mayor Hyde's term. He, the Council, and the citizenry had always presumed that it was allowed by the Council. He had proposed that if Council felt unlimited use was inappropriate that a pay cut, sufficient to compensate for that benefit, be computed and cut from his salary. He felt that was more appropriate than a car allowance which would cost the taxpayers more than the current practice. Councilman Fox stated he agreed with the basic arguments that the City should not allow unlimited personal use of City vehicles. It had been an ongoing practice to provide cen:aln benefits and the Mayor had relied upon the practice as an implied benefit. There should be a new policy when there was a new Mayor or the vehicle was no longer in use. He would support a compromise with some usage outside the county. Councilman Rindone stated the purpose was to provide for Council authorized travel. He felt the perception of unlimited use of City vehicles for personal use needed to be removed. The policy of unlimited use had never been approved or authorized. MS (Rindone/bloore} to eslablish the same policy for the Mayor as approved for the City Manager,, unlimited business use, u~llmlted personal use in the City of Chula Vista, and 2,500 personal miles outside the City of Chula Visnk Motion failed 2-2-0-1 with Horton and Fox opposed and Nader abstaining. MS (Moore/Horton) to adopt the previous mol~on with the addition that the policy could be brought back to the Council at any time with more information or evidence for reconslderatiop_ Mayor Nader stated he resented implications that he was the first Mayor to use a City vehicle for personal use or that there was never any Council authorization. Regarding the motion on the floor, if it did pass, he wanted to know what would happen if the Mayor had more than 2,500 miles of personal use. Would he repay the City, stop driving, buy another car, what was the intent. Council had also given the City Manager the option of a $550 auto allowance and he wanted to know if that option was included in the motion. Councilman Moore felt the Mayor needed a City vehicle in order to represent the City. Even if the Mayor had a personal vehicle there would still need to be a City vehicle for official uses. Minutes January 12, 1993 page 15 Councilman Rindone felt the motion addressed the Mayor's concerns and also addressed the concern of unlimited personal use of a City vehicle. If there was a hardship upon the Mayor it would be incumbent upon him to bring the issue back to the Council for reconsideration. Mayor Nader felt far too much time had been spent on the issue and it should be made clear that if the policy was going to be changed it be made clear so he would be in compliance. Councilman Moore felt the motion was clear and that when 2,500 miles of personal use outside the City was reached that would be it. Mayor Nader questioned why his proposal of taking out of his salary an amount to compensate any personal use of the vehicle was not considered. Councilman Fox stated he wanted to resolve the issue and in the event the motion did not pass he felt the policy that was adopted for the City Manager would be appropriate with just compensation being paid by the Mayor for mileage over 2,500 of personal use outside of the City. That would only apply to Mayor Nader and the present vehicle. VOTE ON MOTION: failed 2-24)-1 with Fox and Horton opposed. MS (Hotton/Fox) to allow the Mayor personal use of a City vehicle for 2,500 miles outside the City of Chula Vista; staff is to bring back a formula which would allow the Mayor to pay the overage of 2,500 miles of personal use outside the City of Chula Vista~ Councilman Fox stated he wanted it understood that the policy was to affect the current Mayor only and that a more permanent policy be brought back to Council for consideration. Councfiman Moore stated a policy should be drafted that would sunset in December 1994 when the Mayox~s current term expired. Mayor Nader stated that was fair and that if he chose to run for reelection he would be aware that the rules could change. He felt that no matter who was Mayor, Council should look at changing the policy effective the next term. MAKER AND SECOND OF MOTION AGBF. RFI TO INCLUDE: the policy would sunset in December 1994. Joe Garcia, 484 Fifth Avenue, Chula Vista, CA, suggested that the item be agendized in order to obtain public input. City Attomey Boogaard informed Mr. Garcia that the item had been agendized.

Council had already created a Subcommittee, including Councilman Moore and Mayor Nader, to review the functions of commissions and report back to Council as appropriate.

After talking with Commissioner Malcolm he felt Council should designate a formal representative to attend the meeting on Friday. Minutes Januar~ 12, 1993 page 17 MSUC (Nader/Rindone) to designate Councilman Moore as the Counc~ representative for the Coastal Commission hearing. 22. COUNCIL COMMENTS Councilman Fox a. Strategies for attracting environmentally sound businesses to Chula Vista. Continued from the 1/5/93 meeting. Councilman Fox reviewed his proposal for an environmental enterprize zone task force. The task force would be set up to seek state legislation to amend the current enterprise zone state code to expand the definition to include enterprise zones in order to specifically create two demonstration projects, one of which would be in the City of Chula Vista. They would specifically encourage environmentally sound businesses and industries. He proposed fourteen members; five members from business, including one from banking, one from commercial real estate, one from business, one from the Chamber of Commerce and one from industry. Also included would be five members from the environmental community, i.e. two from environmental organizations, one from a non-profit community development organization, one expert on environmental technology, and one from a university or Southwestern College; and four members from governmental agencies, i.e. two from Council, one from the County Reinvestment Task Force, and one from the Economic Development Commission. MS (FoX/Nader) to approve the formation of the Environmental Enterprise Zone Task Force. AMENDMENT TO MOTION: CNader/Fox) 1) Sunset one year as a maximum; the task force charge would be specifically to devise criteria to submit to the state for the demonstration program and when that was done, or at the end of the year, the task force would surfset. 2) The Environmental Resources Manager and the Economic Development Coordinator for the City be included on the task force. Mayor Nader stated Chula Vista had been unable to obtain a generic enterprise zone from the state. Staff was now preparing a proposed City based zone of incentives for business incubators and industry to attract jobs to Chula Vista. The task force would target a state program regarding environmental technologies. He felt the program would include taxbreaks subsidized by the state. Councilman Moore stated he could support a program to entice special businesses to locate in Chula Vista, not necessatily to rezone Chula Vista or form a special zone. Councilman Rindone questioned whether the intent was to submit an application to the state for one of the proposed zones. Mayor Nader stated there was a prospect of legislation geared to environmental enterprises. The task force would develop the criteria to incorporate into the legislation. Councilman Rindone stated the industries being discussed were nebulous and questioned how viable it would be. The Economic Development Commission's sole goal was to promote the economy of the City and he expressed concern that the task force could circumvent them. Councilwoman Horton stated she was inclined to vote against the motion. She thought there were many questions that needed to be answered and felt the staff should bring back a brief report. She questioned what property owners would be affected and the potential of attracting those types of businesses. She felt Minutes January 12, 1993 Page 18 it would also limit the City's economic growth potential for other types of businesses by limiting the City to what was being proposed. Mayor Nader asked if City staff had the expertise to develop the program. City Manager Goss responded no, Councilman Moore stated he was concerned with the staff support required for a task force and did not believe staff should be members of the task force. The Economic Development Manager and Environmental Resource Manager were extremely busy with current City projects. He felt the task force was a duplication of efforts of the Economic Development Commission. He also had a problem with one year. Councilman Fox responded the intent was not to limit the focus of economic development in the City to environmental industries. His intent was to compliment the economic zone by acquiring the expertise to move forth. Councilwoman Horton stated Council needed a better understanding of what the environmental clean-up technologies did, the ramifications, and whether they were the type of businesses the City wanted. AMENDMENT TO MOTION: (Nader/Fox) task force would sunset in six months and to go beyond that date it would have to come back to Council for authorlzatloEL Mayor Nader stated that any staffing assignments were ultimately at the discretion of the City Manager but he hoped the Manager would assign the Economic Development Coordinator and the Environmental Resources Manager to work with the task force. He felt their areas of expertise were relevant to the work. City Manager Goss stated he would like to keep the lines distinct between the policy and staff functions within the organization. While he felt the two positions were appropriate to support and work with the task force, he preferred they not be task force members. Mayor Nader questioned whether ex-officio members would be acceptable. City Manager Goss stated he would rather not as there could be other staff members that would be appropriate at times to support the task force and would not have the same status. He wanted a distinction between the staff and the policy advisory group. He agreed the two people would probably support the task force but he preferred they not be members of the task force. Mayor Nader stated it was up to the City Manager to assign the staff people and suggested that rather than naming them as members of the task force there be a recommendation to the City Manager that those two individuals be kept abreast of the actions of the task force. Councilman Moore stated he was concerned regarding the staffing of the task force. He recommended that one of the Mayor/Council staff members be utilized as the secretary. He also expressed his concern over the workload of the two staff members. Mayor Nader felt the Mayor/Council office was already overloaded. He suggested that the task force notify the staff members, or the City Manager, via the two staff members, of the meeting times and the progress. Councilman Fox stated he would not want to require that staff attend every meeting to take notes. Minutes January 12, 1993 page 19 Councfiman Moore felt the Mayor/Council staff could provide a secretary, if needed, and not demand that the staff members be at every meeting. Mayor Nader stated he would agree with that as long as it was understood the Mayor/Council secretary would be required to provide secretarial services only if those services were really deemed necessary. He would hope the task force would not need a professional secretary. Councilman Fox clarified the motion - a fourteen member task force with Mayor appointing and ratification by Council, 6 month sunset from 2/1/93. VOTE ON MOTION AS AMENDED: approved 4-1 with Horton opposed. b. Councilman Fox stated he had been advised that he needed to inform Council that he was appealing the decision of the Zoning Administrator on the Conditional Use Permit to sell alcohol at the mini-market at Melrose and Orange. Mayor Nader requested that staff provide the Council, in conjunction with the item, the relevant portions of the ordinance on alcohol retail in C-N zones. c. Councilman Fox stated that Chairman Bilbray proposed, in his State of the County Address, that a ballot measure be prepared for the 1994 election that would consolidate many of the city services with the county being eliminated. Mayor Nader stated Supervisor Bilbray had stated that many services were being duplicated between local governments, districts, etc. Whether he was actually proposing elimination of the county was unclear. Councilman Rindone: · Councilman Rindone stated there had been a lot of publicity regarding the upcoming water retrofit policy and questioned when the item would be docketed. Jim Thomson, Deputy City Manager, stated staff was st~l working on the item and felt the earliest it could be brought back was in February. Deputy City Manager Krempl was preparing an information item to the Council regarding the background and current status. Councilman Rindone requested that Council receive a preliminary draft of what was being reviewed. City Manager Goss stated they could send Council a draft but it would have to be with the understanding that it was not final. Councilman Moore: · Councilman Moore questioned whether the City Manager felt it would be appropriate to procure two different types of the state recommended low-flow commodes and install them in appropriate locations within the City. City Manager Goss stated it could be done administratively but he would have to talk to staff regarding the timeliness and location, etc. There could be locations where they were already installed. Mayor Nader requested that the item be docketed for the 1/19/93 agenda.
