(Planning) TESTIMONY: Planning Director Roger Post explained that the question of annexation became an issue following an application by the County of San Diego for the dissolution of the Lower Sweetwater Fire Protection District. The Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO) suggested that the annexation of Lincoln Acres to National City be considered as an alternative. The City Council undertook a fiscal impact study to determine the financial impact of the requested annexation which concluded there would be an annual deficit to National City's budget of $635,000 per year after $2 million in one-time startup costs. Mr. Post stated the four possible alternatives the Council could take in response to LAFCO's request to take a position are: a) support of annexation contingent upon full cost recovery; b) support for annexation with partial cost recovery; c) support for annexation unconditionally, d) oppose annexation.
