ROLL CALL Councilmembers present: Beauchamp, Inzunza, Morrison, Soto, Waters. Administrative officials present: Campbell, Dalla, DiCerchio, Eiser, Kimble, Matienzo, McCabe, Morse, Myers, Post, Ray. 1. Fiscal Impact Analysis of the Proposed Annexation of Lincoln Acres. Planning Director Roger Post provided some background on the Lincoln Acres issue and introduced Mr. Michael Ott, Executive Director of the Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO), and the City's consultants: Bill Hofman, Stan Weiler and Elysian Mah from Hofman Planning Associates. Mr. Hofman introduced his staff and made some opening remarks. Mr. Weiler provided an overview of the findings from the "Fiscal Impact Analysis of The Proposed Annexation of Lincoln Acres" report prepared by Hofman Planning Associates. According to the 'Executive Summary' of the Hofman Report: "The fiscal impact analysis for the proposed annexation of Lincoln Acres demonstrates that the annexation will create a financial burden for the City of National City. The costs for the additional services and facilities that National City would provide for the Lincoln Acres area would exceed the additional revenue the city would receive from Book 82/Page 323 12/12/00 Lincoln Acres by $635,674 per year (see Table 1 below). This estimated impact on the National City General Fund is a conservative estimate, since it does not account for demand for services or infrastructure deficiencies that are either unknown or not apparent at this time. The general Fund revenue generated by Lincoln Acres comes from secured property tax franchise taxes, business license tax, sales tax, intergovernmental revenues and miscellaneous revenues. Lincoln Acres is expected to generate $386,771 in annual revenues for the General Fund of the City of National City. General Fund expenditures for Lincoln Acres would go towards general government, fire protection, police protection, planning and public works and engineering. Total General Fund expenditures for Lincoln Acres are expected to be $1,022,445 per year. In addition, one time costs to bring the Lincoln Acres area into compliance with National City standards are projected to be approximately $2,000,000. Michael Ott from LAFCO explained that the annexation process for Lincoln Acres would be different from a normal annexation because it is being considered as a result of a proposed dissolution of the Lower Sweetwater Fire Protection District. Questions and discussion by the Council followed. Comments and questions from the Public were offered by; Joel Hienz, Richard Cook, Mark Baca, Mr. Schultz and an unnamed speaker. Mayor Waters indicated that further consideration of the proposed Lincoln Acres annexation would take place at the January 9, 2001 City Council meeting.
