ITEM EXPLANATION (4/5TH'S VOTE REQUIRED YES X NO )
For the past two years, the City has been a member of the Economic
(EDC) of San Diego County. The annual $1,00.0 membership fee enable
pate in the organization on a formalized basis. Due to the debate
group, the City's membership has not been brought to the Council's

pursue membership with
Recently, staff met with the Director of EDC to discuss the request of the Council along
with the City's desire to broaden its economic base. It soon became apparent that EDC is
most desirous of having us as a member. The reasoning is that there is a growing shortage
of available industrial land throughout the County. Therefore, the City as the major
public entity in the South Bay, has an important role in the future development of the
South Bay region, particularly when considering the potential of Otay Mesa. Thus, with
an official voice in the organization our City's influence will be further enhanced and
EDC's role as facilitator will be benefitted.
Based upon the meeting with the Director, Dick Davis, it is recommended that the City
renew its membership for the standard $1,000 fee. In addition, the EDC will provide for
greater participation through the distribution of brochures specifically produced for the
City. Their staff has offered to provide technical assistance in the development of such
material. The cost of production must be borne by the City or other City designated
groups such as the Chamber of Commerce. Recently, Oceanside and National City have been
afforded this opportunity. Cost for such an effort has not been ascertained but could
range from $500 to $5,000. A specific program will be brought back to the Council at an
appropriate time when such participation has been costed and analyzed.
