A recorded Fire Dept. access easement 20' wide to run the full length of 'Al Ave. from 22nd to 24th be provided; the easement be either the westerly 20' or middle 20' of the existing street; at least one access point shall be maintained via 22nd St. and may be limited by a locked gate or chain utilizing an approved Fire Dept. locking device; 2. A fire hydrant be located at the SE corner of the intersection of 22nd St. and 'A' Ave. to provide a minimum fire flow of 2,000 gpm for 4 hours duration at 20 psi residual; the fire hydrant shall be installed as a public hydrant according to Sweetwater Authority and the City specifications; Public Works Dept. has no objection provided that proper measures for drainage are taken; it might be appropriate to require the beneficiary of this to provide some off-street parking as a part of the deal; the vacation will eliminate some existing on -street parking in a parking premium area; the Planning Dept. has concluded this would have no adverse effect on land use or circulation in the area; easements would have to be reserved for S.D.G. & E. for existing and proposed storm drain facilities and for Fire Dept. access; curbs, gutters, and sidewalks would have to be constructed across 'A' Ave. on the South side of 22nd and the North side of 24th, and the Fire Dept. wants a hydrant at the SE corner of 22nd & 'A'; estimated cost of all these improvements is $11,000; if the street is not vacated, it must be reconstructed since there is overall failure of the pavement structural section; estimated cost to reconstruct is $40,000; since the adjacent automobile dealer will be the main beneficiary, Council may want to have them share in the cost of the vacation; staff recommends the street vacation proceed) was presented. Moved by Morgan, seconded by Van Deventer, the property owner pay $11,000 into the City treasury and the City do the work. Discussion re parking. City Attorney McLean said if Council directs staff to proceed, a staff report will go to the Planning Commission outlining the kinds of conditions that should be imposed, such as off-street parking, costs, the fire hydrant, and fencing. Motion carried by unanimous vote. The request of the MIRAMAR FIRE ACADEMY for a DONATION of 212" FIRE HOSE that we will be declaring surplus (Based on our current dependency on the Miramar Fire Academy to furnish well -trained recruits for our Department, this would be a goodwill gesture on our part and would have little impact on our department; the value of the surplus 22" fire hose is approximately $.30 per foot; the total value of 500 ft. would be $150; staff recommends that 500 ft. of surplus 22" fire hose be donated to the Miramar Fire Academy) was presented. Moved by Van Deventer, seconded by Waters, in favor of this request. Carried by unanimous vote. The Public Works Director's request for REMOVAL of UNAPPROVED WORK in a public place (Seven USA TODAY newspaper vending machines are located in the public right-of-way and are attached [bolted or chained] to public facilities; no City approval was sought or obtained; this is in violation of Ordinance 900 requiring that any work done in or upon any public place shall have been done in accord with plans and specifications approved by the Superintendent of Streets; the Ordinance further states that such work may not be allowed to remain in place and the City Council may, after notice to remove, order the Superintendent of Streets to remove same at the cost and expense of the owner; proper notice requiring removal was posted on the offending newspaper vending machines on May 11, 1983; staff recommends that Council direct the Superintendent 6/7/83 Book 63 Page 99 of Streets to remove the offending machines at the cost and expense of USA TODAY) was presented.

Moved by Waters, seconded by Van Deventer, in favor of the Street Tree and Parkway Committee's recommendations. Carried by unanimous vote. The continued discussion of STREET LIGHTING POLICY was held at this time. Mayor Morgan said Council authorized the City Attorney to get this ready for the November ballot. City Manager McCabe said there is some apathy in some areas in starting Neighborhood Watch Programs; the Police are doing everything they possibly can to get the people to participate. Councilman Van Deventer inquired if Police Chief Hart is still going to come forward with a report. City Manager McCabe replied if Council so directs. Councilman Van Deventer continued, he would still like to make that direction; if the people in that area are concerned with crime, it is the City's responsibility to take care of the people; if this requires the Police Dept. to go out and help set up and explain the other side of the picture to the people, we should do it. Mayor Morgan said he would second the motion. Carried by unanimous vote. Moved by Waters, seconded by Camacho, this communication be filed. Carried by unanimous vote. ROSALIE ZARATE, 1730 E. 12th, was present and said the people are tired of crimes being committed; she feels the CAL did not impress upon the Council the need for a better community with better lighting; her understanding was if enough crimes were committed in an area, they would get lights; the City's policy on lighting is not acceptable to them; all they are asking is that the people in the community feel safe and secure in their homes and are able to go out at night. Discussion. Councilman Van Deventer said if we can get Neighborhood Watch Programs started in some of these areas, it would reduce crime; lights will not solve all the problems; if people want to support the light district, the City can put lights wherever they want as long as the whole community is willing to pay for it. Vice Mayor Dalla said the Neighborhood Watch Program has been in existence for several years; people get upset if the Police aren't present whenever there is a problem; if the neighborhood people don't participate, all the lights in the world won't matter. CITY MANAGER City Manager McCabe introduced the new Assistant City Manager, Gerald Bolint. 6/7/83 Book 63 Page 100 CITY ATTORNEY City Attorney McLean reported regarding the suit filed against the City of San Diego and San Diego Redevelopment Agency concerning Rte. 252 right-of-way; it appears there was significant defect in the City of San Diegots environmental processing and they have agreed to rescind their action.

Councilman Waters spoke of the problems in El Toyon Park on weekends, saying when the police go out there, everyone behaves themselves; perhaps we could send an undercover police officer out there on Saturdays and Sundays between 2:30 and 7:00 to try and stop some of the trouble.

(February 10, 1982, page 2) SENIOR HIGHRISE: There is nothing in the minutes that could even remotely be construed as opposing the Senior's highrise facility. In fact, quite the contrary is true. I had a vague recollection of not supporting some aspect of the project. I was unable, however, to find anythng in the minutes to confirm that recollection.

(September 6, 1977, page 6) EXHIBIT "A" 6/7/83 Minutes, City Council Page 1 June 7, 1983 HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL City of National City National City, CA 92050 Dear Mayor Morgan and Councilmen: During the last several years, accusations have been made regarding my support or lack of support for certain major City projects. Since I knew such claims to be distortions of fact, my initial reaction was to ignore them. When the accusations continued I attempted to explain to those making them that their information was inaccurate and incomplete. Unfortunately neither ignoring or explaining the erroneous claims has deterred those who insist on repeating them. It is almost as if there is a belief that constant repetition of distorted facts will somehow render them true or at least cause others to believe them true. I feel compelled and duty bound therefore to take extraordinary steps to set the record straight. In order to do so I have reviewed the official minutes of'the Redevelopment Agency, the Community Development Commission, Parking Authority, and Housing Authority, beginning in March of 1974. The purpose of such review was to extrapolate pertinent motions and resolutions relating to the Plaza Bonita Shopping Center project and the Seniors Highrise, which are the two issues most often the subject of erroneous claims. It is my intent to document a true and accurate account of my voting record and position on both projects. It should be clear to any reasonable person that takes the time to review the enclosed documentation that any claim, charge or accusation that I opposed either project is a gross distortion of fact. Included in this document and made a part of the record are excerpts from the official minutes of those Agencies responsible for the Plaza Bonita Shopping Center and the Seniors Highrise. The minutes essentially speak for themselves. However, due to the sheer volume of material over the years it would be impractical to reproduce the complete record of every vote ever taken on both projects. However, no motions or resolutions have been intentionally excluded that would materially change its outcome or conclusion, PLAZA BONITA PROJECT: The Plaza Bonita Project and its various related aspects has been voted upon approximately 100 times since March of 1974. The enclosed records will show that I consistently supported the Center in the overwhelming majority of cases. The two areas where I either voted against the project or abstained related primarily to the Environmental Impact Report and its conclusions. Also expressed on numerous occasions was concern for the financial aspects of the project. Such votes and concerns cannot conceivably be construed as opposing the Center itself, particularly in view of continuing support for all other aspects of the project. The following excerpts are taken from the minutes indicated: In re - Declaration that the or000sed Bonita Sh000ing Center may have an effect on the environment The Director recommended that the Redevelopment Agency file a statement pursuant to the Local Guidelines implementing the California Environmental Quality Act as amended, that the Bonita Shopping Center may have an effect on the environment. Such a statement would call for the preparation of a draft environmental statement. The Director's recommendation was approved by Camacho and seconded by Pinson. Carried by unanimous vote.

(May 21, 1974, page 50) In re - The Environmental Impact Report The Director indicated the members of the Redevelopment Agency are in a position to decide what they would like to do with the Impact Report at this time. Chairman Morgan asked what was the pleasure of the Agency. Mr. Camacho said if the Agency wishes to approve the Final En- vironmental Impact Report, they should make two separate motions. The second motion should be voted on after the first motion. Vice Mayor Camacho said, "After Reviewing the written comments made by persons and entities on the Draft Environmental Impact Report and subsequent to hearing the statements made by interested persons at the regular Redevelopment Agency meeting of June 18, 1974, on the Draft Environmental Impact Report, and further having received a written response prepared by the consultant to the aforementioned verbal and written reviews, and having listened to the consultants' responses to the major issues raised by the reviewers, and having heard the comments made this evening, it is hereby moved that the Final Environmental Impact Report for the Bonita Plaza project is in order and is hereby adopted."

T: EXHIBIT "A" Counci 6/7/83 Minutes, City Page 7 CONCLUSION Obviously, all major projects are voted upon many times between inception and completion. If not satisfied with some aspect of a project I may vote against it. I make no apologies for that. I consider that part of my responsibility to those who elected me. To single out an isolated vote here and there and then represent such votes as indicative of a position on the larger issue is either an ignorant error or an intentional distortion of the record. If anyone has documentation that materially conflicts with the representations contained in this correspondence, I hope they will come forward so that it can be weighed against the full and complete record and thereby permit others to draw their own informed conclusion. It is my hope that a reexamination of the complete record will serve to put these past issues and discrepancies behind us and allow us to get on with today's problems and tomorrow's challenges. Sincerely yours, D Michael R. Da Councilman MRD:eac
