This is the Redevelopment Plan for the National City Redevelopment Project as amended
("Plan"), located in the City of National City, County of San Diego, State of California.
It consists of the text (Sections 100 through 1100), the Project. Area Map of
Redevelopment Project Area No. 1 ("Project Area") (Exhihit A), the legal description of
the Project Area boundaries (Exhibit B), a listing of the proposed public facilities and
infrastructure improvement projects (Exhibit C), and a map of the properties potentially
subject to acquisition by eminent domain (Exhihit D).
This Plan has been prepared by the Community Development Commission (the "CDC")
pursuant to the California Community Redevelopment Law (Health and Safety Code
Section 33000, et sec .), the California Constitution and all applicable laws and
ordinances. It does not present a specific plan for the redevelopment, rehabilitation and
revitalization of any area within the Project Area; instead, it establishes a process and
framework for implementation. This Plan is based upon the Preliminary Plan formulated
and adopted by the National City Planning Commission and the CDC on March 7, 1994
and March 15, 1994, respectively.
This Plan supersedes, by amendment and restatement, the Redevelopment Plan for the
National City Downtown Redevelopment Project adopted by Ordinance No. 1762 on
December 1, 1981, as amended by Ordinance No. 1821 adopted on May 22, 1984,
Ordinance No. 1851 adopted on April 16, 1985, and -Ordinance No. 91-2013 adopted on
June 18, 1991, Ordinance No. 95-2095 adopted on July 18, 1995, and Ordinance No.
2187 adopted on June 19, 2001. This Plan was amended again by Ordinance No.
adopted on July , 2007. This Plan will amend the preexisting Redevelopment Plan as
follows:
• extend the CDC's existing eminent domain athearity-authority by 12 years in those
areas currently subject to eminent domain;
• add a provision for the CDC to pay all or part of the value of the land and the cost of
the installation and construction of any publicly owned building, facility, structure, or
other improvement within or without the Project Area pursuant to health and Safety
Code Section 33445;

INTRODUCTION I
I'LAN AMENDMENT
The Community Development Commission of the City of National City ("CDC") is
processing an amendment ("2007 Amendment") to the Redevelopment Plan for the
National City Redevelopment Project ("Redevelopment Plan"). As proposed, the
amendment will extend the Commission's existing authority to acquire property, as a last
resort, through eminent domain to vacant property (as defined in the National City
Municipal Code Section 7.06.20), and all commercial and industrial zoned properties in
those areas which are currently subject to eminent domain authority within the National
City Redevelopment -Project- Area -(Project Area"). The- current —exemption for single
family residences would be expanded so that all housing uses, whether single-family or
multi -family, are specifically excluded from the use of eminent domain. The CDC
currently has the authority to acquire property through eminent domain until July 18,
2007 in the following areas:
RSG
• Properties located immediately east and adjacent to National City Boulevard,
between Division Street and the south City limits.
• Properties located immediately west and adjacent to National City Boulevard,
between Division Street and State Route 54.
• Properties located immediately north and adjacent to Civic Center Drive,
between Interstate 5 and National City Boulevard.
• Properties located immediately south and adjacent to Civic Center Drive,
between Interstate 5 and National City Boulevard.
• Properties located immediately north and south and adjacent to 8th Street,
between Interstate 5 and "D" Avenue.
• Properties west of Interstate 5, excepting the San Diego Unified Port District
property.
• Specific properties located immediately southwest of the intersection of Plaza
Boulevard and Highland Avenue.
This amendment will extend the CDC's authority to acquire property through eminent
domain within these areas until 2019.
The 2007 Amendment also includes the addition and modification of redevelopment plan
text as it pertains to redevelopment actions and uses permitted in the project area. As
proposed the amendment would add a provision for the CDC to pay all or part of the
value of the land and the cost of the installation and construction of any publicly owned
building, facility, structure, or other improvement within or without the Project Area
pursuant to Health and Safety Code Section 33445. The 2007 Amendment would
modify Section VII (c) of the Redevelopment Plan, thus allowing for used auto and truck
sales when part of a new vehicle dealership and located on land within the
Transportation Center district. The 2007 Amendment will change the current exclusion
of eminent domain on single-family homes (Exhibit D) to include all residential land uses.
The 2007 amendment will also revise Exhibit C -- "Public Facilities/Infrastructure
Improvement Projects". Revisions to Exhibit C include expanding the descriptions of the
project objectives of the existing projects listed in Exhibit C, eliminating the list of streets
identified under the Street Improvements project and adding a project entitled Public

Safety and Security which as described, provides physical and technological
enhancements to enhance public safety and protection. Examples of such
improvements may include but are not limited to fencing of properties, the rehabilitation
or construction of police storefronts, physical and technological improvements at Police
Station(s) and Fire Stations within the Project Area.
No other changes to the Redevelopment Plan for the Project Area are included in this
amendment.
This document is the CDC's Report to the City Council ("Report") for the proposed 2007
Amendment, and has been prepared pursuant to Section 33457.1 and 33352 of the
California Community Redevelopment Law, Health and Safety Code Section 33000 et
seq. ("Law"). Pursuant to Section 33352 of the Law, the Report provides information,
documentation and evidence to assist the City Council of National City with their
consideration of the 2007 Amendment and in making the various determinations in
connection with its adoption. This Report supplements the documentation and evidence
contained in previous Reports to the City Council ("Original Reports"), prepared in
connection with the original Redevelopment Plan and subsequent amendments; the
Original Reports are incorporated herein by reference.
Section 33457.1 of the Law dictates the required components of this Report. More
specifically, Section 33457.1 states that the information required by Section 33352 is the
only information warranted by the 2007 Amendment. Much of the information normally
required that pertains to adopting a redevelopment plan was previously documented and
presented in the Original Reports.

SECTION A
Reasons for the Amendment and Description of Specific Projects
Proposed and How these Projects will Improve or Alleviate Blighting
Conditions Found in the Project, Area
The CDC seeks to amend the Redevelopment Plan and extend the CDC's eminent
domain authority (subject to all required procedures under California law) within the area
identified as the 2007 Amendment Area as illustrated in Attachment 1. Specifically
excluded from eminent domain are properties that are used for residential purposes.
The CDC's authority to use eminent domain to acquire property shall run for 12 years
from the effective date of the 2007 Amendment to the Redevelopment Plan.
The 2007 Amendment also includes the addition and modification of redevelopment plan
text as it pertains to redevelopment actions and uses permitted in the project area. As
proposed the amendment would add a provision for the CDC to pay all or part of the
value of the land and the cost of the installation and construction of any publicly owned
building, facility, structure, or other improvement within or without the Project Area
pursuant to Health and Safety Code Section 33445. The 2007 Amendment would
modify Section VII (c) of the Redevelopment Plan, thus allowing for used auto and truck
sales when part of a new vehicle dealership and located on land within the
Transportation Center district. The 2007 Amendment will also change the current
exclusion of eminent domain on single-family homes (Exhibit D) to include all residential
land uses, as well as revising Exhibit C — "Public Facilities/Infrastructure Improvement
Projects".
The 2007 Amendment does not amend, modify, change or affect in any way modify the
Project Area boundaries. The CDC is undertaking the 2007 Amendment in order to
expand its ability to assemble sites, thereby facilitating commercial, industrial and
residential redevelopment projects in the Project Area.
The CDC adopted the 1995 Redevelopment Plan authorizing the current limited eminent
domain authority. The 1995 Report to the City Council ("1995 Report") cited
socioeconomic conditions such as low median household income, high unemployment,
high proportion of residential tenants versus home owners and low residential rents as
blighting factors. The 1995 Report also discussed the mixture of land uses many of
which are incompatible and/or obsolete as well as small parcel sizes and limited public
infrastructure as additional blighting conditions. To facilitate the elimination of the above
blighting conditions the CDC has initiated public right-of-way improvements, specific
plans for development and environmental remediation of toxic sites over the last 12
years.
Unfortunately, these efforts alone have not been successful in the elimination of blight
from the Project Area. The CDC's overall efforts have been limited, due to the inability
to negotiate land purchase transactions with private property owners. While the CDC
has pursued land acquisition and consolidation through open market transactions and
limited eminent domain actions, the lack of eminent domain in many commercial and
industrial corridors has constrained redevelopment efforts. Because the CDC cannot
forcefully encourage property owners to either redevelop or sell abandoned and
dilapidated properties, many of these properties continue to be neglected 12 years later.

Adopting the 2007 Amendment will extend the Redevelopment Plan's eminent domain
authority and afford the CDC one additional tool to eliminate blight in the Project Area,
through the facilitation of land assemblage activities or the purchase of dilapidated
properties within the areas identified in Attachment 1.

SECTION B
Description of the Physical arid Economic Conditions Existing in the
Project Area.
This section summarizes the existing physical and economic conditions within the 2007
Amendment Area.
PHYSICAL. BLIGHTING CONDITIONS
Section 33031(a) of the Law describes physical conditions that cause blight as follows:
1. Buildings in which it is unsafe or unhealthy for persons to live or work. These
conditions may be caused by:
a. Serious building code violations,
b. Serious dilapidation and deterioration caused by Tong -term neglect,
c. Construction that is vulnerable to serious damage from seismic or
geologic standards,
d. Buildings suffering from faulty or inadequate water or sewer utilities.
2. Conditions that prevent or substantially hinder the viable use or capacity of
buildings or lots. These conditions may be caused by:
a. Buildings of substandard, defective, or obsolete design given present
general plan, zoning, and other development standards.
3. Adjacent or nearby incompatible land uses that prevent the development of those
parcels or other portions of redevelopment project areas.
4. The existence of subdivided lots that are in multiple ownership and whose
physical development has been impaired by their irregular shapes and
inadequate sizes, given present general plan and zoning standards and present
market conditions.
ECONOMIC BLIGHTING CONDITIONS
Section 33031(b) of the Law describes the following economic conditions that cause
blight:
1. Depreciated or stagnant property values.
2. Impaired property values due to significance in the presence of hazardous waste
where the agency may be eligible to use its authority as specified in Article 12.5.
3. Abnormally high business vacancies, abnormally low lease rates, or an
abnormally high number of abandoned buildings.
RSG

City of Nitiona i City
A serious lack of necessary commercial facilities such as those normally found in
neighborhoods including grocery stores, drug stores, and banks and other
lending institutions.
5. Serious residential overcrowding that has resulted in significant public health or
safety problems. As used in this paragraph, 'overcrowding' means exceeding the
standard referenced in Article 5 (commencing with Section 32) of Chapter 1 of
Title 25 of the California Code of Regulations.
6. An excess of bars, liquor stores, or adult -oriented businesses that has resulted in
significant public health, safety, or welfare problems.
A high crime rate that constitutes a serious threat to the public safety and
welfare.
STUDY APPROACH ANI) M 1 THODOLOGY
Several data sources were utilized to quantify existing conditions of the properties within
the 2007 Amendment Area. An important data source was a field survey conducted by
Rosenow Spevacek Group, Inc. ("RSG"), consultants to the CDC, in April of 2007. The
survey encompassed those areas of the Project Area currently subject to eminent
domain. Existing physical and economic conditions of each parcel, as observed from
the public right-of-way, were documented. The observed physical and economic
blighting conditions included deterioration and dilapidation, structural obsolescence,
incompatible adjacent land uses, defective/substandard design and inadequate parcel
size. Photographs illustrating the observed blighting conditions are included as
Attachment 2 to this Report.
The analysis and assessment of the blighting conditions found within the 2007
Amendment Area, is based upon the following sources:
1. The April 2007 field survey by RSG.
2. Commercial and industrial lease rates and vacancy rates from Grubb and Ellis,
CB Richard Ellis, Inc. and CoStar Commercial Real Estate.
3. Information and data from the City of National City's General Plan.
4. Information from the City of National City Code Violation Department.
5. Information from the National City Fire Department
6. Information from the National City Police Department
While RSG believes all information sources to be reliable, it is not responsible for the
accuracy of data provided by such sources. •
The survey and supplementary research included analyzing the 2007 Amendment Area
to determine the conditions of blight present. The primary blighting conditions observed
during the survey were dilapidation and deterioration of buildings and buildings with

Buildings Unsafe/Unhealthy to Live or Work In
Section 33031(a)(1) of the Law describes physical conditions that cause blight to include
"Buildings in which it is unsafe or unhealthy for persons to live or work. These conditions
may be caused by serious building code violations, serious dilapidation and deterioration
caused by long-term neglect, construction that is vulnerable to serious damage from
seismic or geologic hazards, and faulty or inadequate water or sewer utilities." The
following discussion substantiates the presence of serious dilapidation and deterioration
caused by long-term neglect in the 2007 Amendment Area.
Serious Dilapidation and Deterioration
Structures were determined to be dilapidated or deteriorated if they were suffering from
deteriorating roofing or eaves; peeling paint; damaged exterior building material;
exposed wiring or plumbing; and/or if the buildings were constructed with substandard
building materials. Of the 692 parcels identified as being blighted, there were 493
occurrences of dilapidation and deterioration in the 2007 Amendment Area (71.2%).

Physical Factors that Prevent or Substantially Hinder the
Economically Viable Use of Buildings or Lots
Section 33031(a)(2) of the Law describes physical conditions that cause blight to include
"Factors that prevent or substantially hinder the economically viable use or capacity of
buildings or lots. This condition can be caused by a substandard design, inadequate
size given present standards and market conditions, lack of parking, or other similar
factors." The following discussion substantiates the presence of inadequate lot and
building size, lack of parking, substandard design and obsolescence.
Substandard or Defective Design
There were several examples of substandard building materials observed in the
properties affected by the 2007 Amendment. Corrugated metal sheeting is a primary
example and is not a permitted building material according to the City code. The
corrugated metal readily deteriorates from the weather and becomes more structurally
unsound as it warps from the elements. Canvas and plastic tarps are also prevalent and
are not permitted to be used as building materials by the City. The results of the field
survey indicate approximately 429 incidences of substandard or defective designs were
present in the 2007 Amendment Area.
The industrial parcels affected by the 2007 Amendment represent the older style of
development, offering limited or no amenities. Modern industrial buildings often use
concrete tilt -up walls that can withstand the physical demands associated with industrial
uses. The Project Area has multiple examples of wood -frame residential structures
converted to industrial use. Residential wood -frame buildings are not designed to
withstand industrial use requirements that may include production equipment or storage
mounted to the walls as well as the high level of wear and tear associated with these
non-residential activities. These activities cause the wood -frame structure to become
dilapidated and wear down prematurely from the high -demands of industrial as well as
commercial usage. Other inadequacies of older structures built for other uses include
insufficient electrical supply, storage, and indoor manufacturing areas.

Structural Obsolescence
While inadequate loading, parking and storage are characteristics of small lot size, these
deficiencies are also indicative of properties 25 years or older. The deficiencies
associated with many older properties are often referred to as obsolescence.
Obsolescence is the result of a combination of blight factors, including the age of
buildings, lack of maintenance, and a lack of desirable amenities such as parking and
tenant improvements that occur as contemporary market standards evolve. For these
reasons, obsolescence results in factors that substantially hinder the economically viable •
use of buildings and lots.
Commercial and industrial development standards have changed significantly since the
1965 when over 40% of the commercial and industrial properties in the Project Area
were developed. Modern industrial developments offer larger floor and lot sizes along
with amenities such as landscaping, on -site parking and adequate loading areas for
larger delivery vehicles. Commercial and industrial uses without adequate area often
negatively affect surrounding properties through competition for on -street parking and
on -street deliveries that restrict access to surrounding properties.
Incompatible Adjacent Uses
Incompatible adjacent uses where commercial and/or industrial properties are directly
adjacent to residential uses were noted on 87 of the properties within the area affected
by the 2007 Amendment. Outdoor manufacturing was commonly observed without any
noise buffers to surrounding residences. Toxic dust created by outdoor industrial repairs
and production drifts in an airbome state to surrounding residential properties,
presenting a significant detrimental health and safety condition to these residents.

Inadequate Lot Size
Small parcel sizes particularly in the commercial corridors of 8th Street as well as the
industrial portions of the Westside area north of 22nd Street hinder these parcels ability
to be rehabilitated and redeveloped. Current development standards for neighborhood
commercial development generally require at least a two -acre site and a four -acre site
for light -industrial development. There are only 10 properties of four or more acres and
34 properties of two or more acres affected by the 2007 Amendment with 585
commercial or industrial properties being less than one-half acre.
Inadequate lot size results in development that either (1) lacks adequate parking, loading
and vehicle access; or (2) prohibits redevelopment and reuse of parcels because the
density of development that exists today would not be allowed without provisions for
adequate parking, loading and vehicle access. New development constructed to
modem development standards would be required to provide adequate parking, loading
and vehicle access, which many commercial and industrial parcels in the Project Area

REPORT TO COUNCIL
COMMUNITY DCVrI OPMFNT COMMISSION

cannot accommodate. Once these amenities are included, the small lot sizes yield
development that is substantially below allowed floor -area -ratios (density) and cause
new development to be incapable of supporting the going land values in the Project
Area.

Excessive site coverage can also hinder the economically viable use or capacity of
buildings or lots. There are industrial buildings in the area which lack adequate floor
space for inside manufacturing and storage. As operations overflow outside into already
constrained parking areas, there is nowhere for the parking needs to be met, except for
the already congested street area.
Inadequate loading is another typical characteristic of properties with insufficient lot size.
Often small lots must employ sidewalk and/or street loading due to the lack of adequate
on -site space. Unloading in the right-of-way; impedes access to businesses, reduces
vehicle sight lines for pedestrian and other vehicular traffic as well as restricts traffic flow
creating a hazardous traffic condition.

Outdoor storage and manufacturing is common throughout the Project Area for both
commercial and industrial properties. Commercial properties often use outdoor storage
for excess materials, trash and other items. The presence of outdoor storage is an
indicator that the existing building stock provides inadequate building space for existing
business activities. Businesses are using temporary canvas tarp (tent) buildings as
permanent additions to existing areas for outdoor manufacturing and production. The
2007 Amendment will provide the CDC with a tool to assemble adequately sized
properties, in which site development can meet modem market standards.

Code Enforcement Violations
Violations of local or state building codes are a blighting condition identified under
Section 33031(a) of the Law. Buildings and structures that do not meet current uniform
building requirements, or other local codes mandated to ensure human health and
safety, pose a threat to the workers, patrons, and residents of an area.
Based on discussions with City staff, most code enforcement cases require at least one,
if not two to three additional follow up visits to make sure the violation is not reoccurring.
The following is a list of code violations observed by City staff in the commercial and
industrial corridors of the properties affected by the 2007 Amendment:
• Unsafe wiring such as extension cords being used as permanent wiring, this fire
hazard was typically observed in residential structures converted to commercial and
industrial uses:
• Public right-of-way (streets and sidewalks) being used for manufacturing and repair
area, particularly for auto related businesses, which leads to manufacturing debris
and pollution being left in the public right-of-way and a hazard to pedestrians;
• Due to overcrowding on street parking in commercial and industrial areas,
commercial and industrial vehicles are stored on nearby residential streets. Small
parcel size also leads to parking of vehicles on grass and other non -paved surfaces,
which has contributed to environmental contamination of the Project Area;
• Public streets being used for loading and unloading of merchandise, usually blocking
or impairing traffic, which is a safety hazard for drivers and pedestrians;
• Canvass or plastic tarps were often observed being used as Tong -term roof covering
or to creating an unsafe building addition as well as permanent outdoor work areas;
RSG
Page 18
REPORT TO COUNCIL
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMFNT COMMISSION
City of National City
• Inadequate securing of trash in dumpster enclosures leads to unsanitary conditions;
• Illegal dumping of trash (including vehicles) was observed throughout the Project
Area, particularly on vacant property or abandoned commercial and industrial
properties;
• Residential structures converted to non-residential uses without proper permits.
Without proper permitting/inspections residential structures cannot be properly
evaluated if they are suitable for industrial conversion. For example, multiple
residential structures that were being used for commercial/industrial uses were
observed to have excessive storage facilities (over 120 square feet of area) in the
dedicated setback area, creating a fire hazard;
• Outdoor chemical usage in addition, to toxic manufacturing with exhaust and particle
venting not to code. This was often observed with outdoor auto repair shops, which
in multiple cases are next to residential uses;
It is important to note that if all code enforcement violations were corrected in the
properties affected by the 2007 Amendment, blighting factors such as environmental
contamination, flooding, inadequately sized parcels and unsafe traffic conditions would
still remain and the 2007 Amendment would still be justified and beneficial for the Project
Area.
ECONOMIC CONDITIONS THAT CAUSE BLIGHT
The preceding section discussed physical conditions, which are indicators of physical
blight within the proposed 2007 Amendment Area. This section will present existing
economic conditions that are indicative of blight. To accurately represent existing
economic conditions, the 2007 Amendment Area has been analyzed and information
has been gathered from the City, the County, and private sources to document the
deteriorating economic conditions of the 2007 Amendment Area.
The primary economic blighting conditions noted in the 2007 Amendment Area were low
lease rates, impaired property values due in part to hazardous wastes, and high crime
rates.
Lease Rates
Based on real estate market publications, the Project Area has an average lease rate of
$1.25 per square foot for retail properties, which is $0.88 per square foot lower than
surrounding markets. Office lease rates are generally $1.98 per square foot or $0.35 -
$0.44 per square foot lower than surrounding markets. Overall lease rates within the
Project Area tend to be lower than in the surrounding markets because the buildings in
the Project Area are older and lack amenities and do not provide opportunities for
expansion.
Table B-2 shows retail and office lease rates for the Project Area are in the low range
when compared to the City of Chula Vista and the County average.

According to real estate professionals there are a number of issues that act in concert to
impede the economic success of real estate within the some of the older industrial and
commercial corridors of the Project Area. For example, when the area developed, the
standards for industrial development allowed for smaller lot sizes than would be
permitted today and reduced set -backs from other properties. It was also noted that the
age of many industrial and commercial buildings renders them obsolete in today's
market. Deficiencies mentioned include: Small building size; Lack of parking on -site and
off-street; Lack of access to industrial sites; Lack of other amenities or inadequate
amenities such as loading and storage; Low ceiling heights which restrict indoor
operations and lead to outdoor manufacturing and/or storage.
The overall lack of amenities offered by a majority of industrial and commercial
properties in the Project Area attracts less desirable uses which impacts the rents
landowners are able to charge. Lower lease rates generally result in little net income to
reinvest in buildings to improve their condition. An adequate revenue stream is
necessary to enable property owners to perform routine maintenance of their properties.
Without funding for repairs, deferred maintenance issues could become health and
safety concerns. This may be especially true for older buildings.
Impaired Property Values Due in Significant Part to Hazardous Waste
The Project Area has multiple locations of environmental concern, most of these sites
are found in the area affected by the 2007 Amendment, particularly the Harbor District.
Generally there are three land -uses generating environmental contamination in the 2007
Amendment area; large industrial uses (particularly in the Harbor District) along with
auto repair facilities, and small-scale industrial manufacturing.
The Harbor District is approximately 300 acres of industrial and distribution area at the
western edge of the Project Area between Interstate 5 and the San Diego Unified Port
District ("Port District") Property along San Diego Bay. In 2003 the CDC undertook a
Brownfield's Grant Study Project ("Study Project") with the United States Environmental
Protection Agency to determine the extent of the pollution in the Harbor District. The
Study Project divided the Harbor District into thirteen (13) sites for individual analysis
and concluded that each of the sites likely suffered from hazardous materials
contamination, while for some sites there was positive confirmation of contaminated soil
and groundwater.

COMMI)NJTY DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION
City of National City
Historically the Harbor District was developed between 1885 and 1925 as a railroad
staging area for transferring goods to ships on San Diego Bay. Industrial uses in the
Harbor District over the last 100 years include: oil recycling and other oil
distribution/refining facilities that used underground and aboveground storage tanks
(including several gas stations), an ordnance company, aircraft parts manufacturer, a
battery manufacturer, tank cleaning businesses, automotive servicing (including
wreckers), machine and lumber storage, tool machining and metal fabrication, finishing
and plating companies and gravel operations. At the time some of these businesses
operated protective environmental regulations that are in place today did not exist.
According to the Study Project many of these uses have resulted in the following types
of pollution: soil and groundwater contamination with oils, lubricants, solvents, lead, and
asbestos, PCBs, corrosives, petroleum hydrocarbons, metals and volatile organic
compounds ("VOC's"). Many of these uses generated hazardous wastes that in several
cases were illegally disposed of onsite. At least 10 monitoring wells have been installed
in the Harbor District to investigate subsurface conditions, with elevated petroleum
hydrocarbons having been detected in soil as well as the presence of petroleum
hydrocarbons, metals and VOCs confirmed in groundwater monitoring wells.
In addition, data obtained in connection with the Study Project shows that environmental
sites requiring remedial investigation or that have recently undergone remedial action
are highly concentrated in the Project Area. Available data for said environmental sites
includes properties for which investigation and/or clean-up efforts are headed by one of
the following lead agencies; San Diego Department of Environmental Health, California
Regional Water Quality Control Board, and the California Department of Toxic
Substances Control. Furthermore, according to environmental attorneys involved with
the Study Project and the creation of the City's Brownfield Redevelopment information
System, sites located within the 2007 Amendment Area that have already undergone
remedial action are not necessarily presumed suitable for all uses. While the CDC
currently has eminent domain authority in the Harbor District and along National City
Blvd, it is set to expire in July of 2007 and the 2007 Amendment would extend the CDC's
eminent domain authority until 2019 to assist, if necessary, in the clean up of these
properties.

Drive this site suffers from
environmental contamination
and is under remediation.
However remediation does
not guaranty that the site can
be built upon in the
foreseeable future.
The National City Fire Department ("Fire Department") in conjunction with the County
issues permits for businesses handling hazardous materials ("Haz-Mat"). Currently,
there are approximately 343 Haz-Mat permits in the City, with a high percentage of these
being issued in the commercial and industrial corridors of the 2007 Amendment area.
Fire Department staff believes the number of actual hazardous materials users or
businesses with Haz-Mat permits that do not list all of the hazardous materials used on
site, is often times much higher than the actual number of permits issued. During the
time period between April 2006 and April 2007, the National City Fire Department
responded to 15 Haz-Mat and hazardous release investigation calls inside the 2007
Amendment area.
Outdoor manufacturing is a cause of hazardous materials being released in the outside
environment, particularly with automobile related businesses. Many auto body shops
were observed to be doing grinding of parts and spraying of toxic materials outside. This
practice sends these hazardous materials airborne, often to surrounding residents.
When these contaminants settle to the ground they either soak into the soil or run into
the storm drains as contaminated urban runoff. This runoff eventually finds its way into
San Diego Bay.
Further, contributing to these conditions are some of the storage practices for chemicals
and debris observed during the field survey. Approximately 40% of properties were
found to have signs of garbage, debris, stagnant water and/or combustible materials on
site. Outdoor storage while being unsightly is also dangerous as holding containers are
subjected to weather elements and decompose more rapidly. Numerous substandard
building additions were observed to be used for hazardous materials storage. Many of
these sheds are made of plywood or canvass tarps that in and of themselves present a
fire hazard, but when these substandard structures are combined with hazardous
materials storage and usage, it become a significant environmental and fire hazard to
the surrounding structures many of which are residential.

Crime
A high crime rate that constitutes a serious threat to public safety and welfare is a
condition of economic blight. In order to assess the impact of crime within the Project
Area, information regarding the incidence of violent and other serious property crime
reported by the National City Police Department was analyzed.
All police agencies in the County report their crime statistics to the Automated Regional
Justice Information System ("ARJIS"), which is a regionally standardized system that
enables comparison of the number of crimes reported by jurisdictions across the County.
ARJIS reports to the same categories as the nationally recognized Federal Bureau of
Investigation ("FBI") Crime Index. The Index includes four violent offenses (willful
homicide, forcible rape, robbery, and aggravated assault) and three types of property
crimes (burglary, larceny theft, and motor vehicle theft). The offenses included in the FBI
Index were selected due to their serious nature and/or volume, as well as the probability
that these crimes will be reported to the police. Crime rates in Table B-3 were computed
by occurrence per 1,000 persons using San Diego Association of Government 2006
population estimates.
The regional crime rate based on ARJIS incorporates both local jurisdictions and
unincorporated areas in the County. The 2006 County crime rate based upon ARJIS is
34.2 crimes per 1,000 persons. The 2006 crime rate for the Cities of Chula Vista and
San Diego are 35.8 and 39.4 respectively. The 2006 crime rate in National City is 47.4
per 1,000 or 39% higher than the County average and 32% and 20% higher than the
Cities of Chula Vista and San Diego respectively.
The table on the following page uses data from the 2006 calendar year for all
jurisdictions. In addition to having the highest overall crime rate in 2006, National City's
crime rates were higher for the following individual categories; robbery, aggravated
assault, burglary, and motor vehicle theft. The City had the second highest theft rate
and similar murder and rape rates as the rest of the County. Due to the reporting format
of ARJIS, crime data for National City is city-wide, which is larger than the proposed
2007 Amendment area. However, it is furthermore determined that a disproportionate
share of the City's crime occurs within the boundaries of the 2007 Amendment Area.
With the assistance of National City Police Department crime analysts, it is presumed
that approximately 12.6% of the City's total reported crimes occurred within the
boundaries of the 2007 Amendment area even though the area only constitutes
approximately 8.5% of the City's total area
PARCELS NEEDED l'OR EFFECTIVE REDEVELOPMENT
Section 33321 of the Law states that a project area need not be restricted to buildings
and properties that are detrimental to the public health safety or welfare, but may consist
of an area in which such conditions predominate and injuriously affect the entire area. A
project area may include lands, buildings or improvements which are not detrimental to
the public health, safety or welfare, but whose inclusion is found necessary for the
effective redevelopment of the area. Areas cannot be included for the sole purpose of
obtaining the allocation of tax increment revenue but must have substantial justification
that they are necessary for effective redevelopment.

REPORT TO COUNCIL
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION
City of Natrona! Cr,y
This Report documents that in the area affected by the 2007 Amendment there are
parcels that do not exhibit blighting conditions but that they are interspersed with parcels
that are blighted and necessitate inclusion in the 2007 Amendment area. The number of
and severity of blighted parcels in the Project Area negatively affects the non -blighted
parcels because of their appearance and proximity. In addition, there are certain types
of blighting conditions that cannot be directly linked to a particular parcel such as
substandard on -street parking, which is a cumulative factor.
If only parcels that exhibited blighting conditions were included, the 2007 Amendment
would not be a contiguous area. The intention of the CDC through the 2007 Amendment
is to facilitate rehabilitation programs that will cure health and safety issues and
improving the appearance of the Project Area.
PHYSICAL AND ECONOMIC BURDEN ON COMMUNITY
When evaluated in whole, the numerous physical and economic conditions described in
this section of the Report are a serious physical and economic burden on the
community. This burden cannot reasonably be expected to be reversed or alleviated by
private enterprise and/or existing governmental authority, without the 2007 Amendment.
A summary of the issues includes:
• The documented presence of environmental contamination in the industrial
corridors of the Project Area, causes safety hazards to area occupants and the
cost of removal of these substances increases rehabilitation costs. These
conditions are an economic burden on the community as property owners
choose to maintain obsolete buildings on polluted sites, instead of pursuing new
development which would likely require an expensive cleanup of pollutants.
• Obsolete buildings attract lower commercial and industrial lease rates, which
provide Tess revenue for property owners to make regular repairs and upgrades.
Without periodic maintenance, buildings become deteriorated or even dilapidated
due to lack of reinvestment in the properties.
• The higher crime rates in the City/Project Area require more calls for service
which increases municipal costs and creates an additional burden on community
services as public resources are diverted.
• Incompatible adjacent uses where commercial and/or industrial properties are
directly adjacent to residential uses could subject residents to toxic dust created
by outdoor industrial repairs and production.
• Response -based code enforcement is unable to address all of the health and
safety code violations that exist in the commercial and industrial corridors of the
Project Area. The added municipal cost of code enforcement activity is also a
burden on the community as municipal resources are diverted from other
programs to address code violations.
• Inadequate lot size compounds blighting conditions in the Project Area, as these
parcels are not of adequate area to accommodate the necessary parking and

loading amenities, while maintaining safe access to the site. Redevelopment of
the small sized parcels in the Project Area is not economically viable for private
development, which results in a lack of investment in new development that
continues to negatively impacting the surrounding community.
The extension of eminent domain authority would provide another tool to assist the CDC
in correction of these and other blighting conditions for the properties affected by the
2007 Amendment. The private marketplace has not been successful in achieving the
needed lot consolidations for new development due to limited number of property
owners willing to enter into negotiations. Utilizing eminent domain would provide the
CDC with a greater ability to achieve the Redevelopment Plan goals. The 2007
Amendment would provide the CDC with the ability to rectify the inadequately sized
properties, improve circulation, make improvements to the commercial and industrial
properties and remove substandard dilapidated buildings.

SECTION C
Five -Year Implementation Plan
On June 14, 2005, the CDC adopted its current Five -Year Implementation Plan
("Implementation Plan") for the Project Area. The Implementation Plan was prepared
pursuant to Section 33490 of the Law and contains specific goals and objectives for the
Project Area, the specific projects, and expenditures to be made during the five-year
planning period, and an explanation of how these goals, objectives and expenditures will
eliminate blight within the Project Area. The Implementation Plan is not affected by the
proposed 2007 Amendment. The Implementation Plan is incorporated herein by
reference.

SECTION D
Why the Elimination of Blight and Why Redevelopment. Cannot be
Accomplished by Private Enterprise Acting Alone or by the CDC's
use of Financing Alternatives other than Tax Increment
Section 33352(d) of the Law requires an explanation of why the elimination of blight in
the Project Area cannot be accomplished by private enterprise alone, or by the CDC's
use of financing alternatives other than tax increment financing. This information was
previously provided in the supporting documentation prepared and provided at the time
of the adoption of the existing Project Area. The 2007 Amendment will not make any
changes that would affect the validity of the previously prepared documentation
supporting the need for tax increment.

Page 27
SECTION E
Method of Financing
The method of financing redevelopment activities was provided in the Original Reports
when the Project Area was adopted. The 2007 Amendment will not alter the Project
Area boundaries, affect the base year value or change the proposed method of
financing. Therefore the 2007 Amendment does not warrant that the method of
financing be reviewed.

SECTION F
Method of Relocation
Sections 33352(f) and 33411 of the Law require the CDC to prepare a method or plan
for the relocation of families and persons who may be temporarily or permanently
displaced from housing facilities located within the Project Area. The Law also requires
a relocation plan when nonprofit local community institutions are to be temporarily or
permanently displaced from facilities actually used for institutional purposes in said
Project Area. In addition, the Law requires relocation assistance for commercial and
industrial businesses displaced by redevelopment activities. The CDC has previously
approved the Relocation of Persons Displaced ("Method of Relocation"), which was
amended on July 18, 1995. The final Method of Relocation is incorporated herein by
reference and is on file with the Secretary of the CDC.

SECTION G
Analysis Of The Preliminary Plan
An analysis of the Preliminary Plan was provided in the supporting documentation
prepared at the time the Project Area was adopted. Pursuant to Section 33457.1 of the
Law, because the analysis of the Preliminary Plan remains the same and is not affected
by the 2007 Amendment, additional analysis is not required.
SECTION H
Report And Recommendation Of The Planning Commission
Section 33352(h) of the Law requires inclusion of a report and recommendation of the
National City Planning Commission ("Planning Commission"). The report and
recommendation of the Planning Commission was provided in the supporting
documentation prepared at the time the Project Area was adopted. The CDC did not
request a new report and recommendation from the Planning Commission for the 2007
Amendment, because it does not affect the Plan's land use provisions and it was
previously determined that the existing Plan was in conformance with the adopted
General Plan of National City. Therefore, it was not necessary to require the Planning
Commission to make additional findings.
SECTION I
Report Of The Project Area Committee
Pursuant to the Law, a redevelopment agency shall call upon the property owners,
residents, business tenants and existing community organizations in a redevelopment
project area, or amendment area, to form a project area committee ("PAC") if: (1)
granting the authority to the agency (CDC) to acquire by eminent domain property on
which persons reside in a project area in which a substantial number of low- and
moderate -income persons reside; or (2) add territory in which a substantial number of
low- and moderate -income persons reside and grant the authority to the agency to
acquire by eminent domain property on which persons reside in the added territory.
The CDC did not form a PAC because the 2007 Amendment specifically excludes
properties that are used for residential purposes, and no projects or programs have been
identified that will displace low- and moderate -income persons. Therefore, it was not
necessary to form a PAC pursuant to Section 33385.3 for the purposes of making
additional findings.

SECTION J
General Plan Conform.ance
The 2007 Amendment does not contain provisions which would alter land use
designations, nor does the proposed 2007 Amendment affect the land use provisions of
the Plan. Information that determined the Plan was in conformance with the General
Plan was provided in the documentation prepared at the time the Project Area was
adopted. Therefore, Section 33352(j) of the Law requiring a report of General Plan
conformance per Section 65402 of the Government Code is not required.
SECTION K
Environmental Documentation
Section 33352(k) of the Law requires environmental documentation to be prepared
pursuant to Section 21151 of the Public Resources Code. Concurrent with the adoption
of the Plan and the subsequent amendments, the CDC undertook appropriate
environmental documentation as necessary. For the 2007 Amendment, a Negative
Declaration (Initial Study) was prepared pursuant to California Environmental Quality Act
guidelines, which found that the proposed 2007 Amendment to extend eminent domain
authority would not have a significant adverse impact on the environment. A copy of the
Negative Declaration follows as Attachment 3.
SECTION L
Report of the County Fiscal Officer
The proposed 2007 Amendment will not enlarge the Project Area; therefore, it is not
necessary for the CDC to request a base year report from the County of San Diego
pursuant to section 33328 of the Law. Project Area fiscal information was provided in
the supporting documentation prepared and provided at the time the Project Area was
adopted. Because the proposed 2007 Amendment will not alter the boundaries of the
Project Area, this report is not needed or required.

Section 33352(m) of the Law requires the inclusion of a Neighborhood Impact Report.
This information is presented in the Original Reports that were prepared and provided at

SECTION N
Summary of the Agency Consultation with Affected Taxing Agencies
Because the 2007 Amendment does not add area to the Project Area, submission of a
request to the County to prepare a report pursuant to Section 33328 of the Law was not
required or appropriate. Therefore, a summary of this report is not included. With
regard to consultations, the taxing agencies received all notices regarding the 2007
Amendment and they were invited to contact the CDC Executive Director regarding the
2007 Amendment. The 2007 Amendment does not affect the financing in any way nor
does it change land uses or public improvement projects.

Redevelopment Plan Amendment 2007 - Negative Declaration
A. INTRODUCTION
The Community Development Commission of the City of National City (the "CDC") prepared a
Negative Declaration for the proposed 2007 Redevelopment Plan Amendment to extend the
authority to use eminent domain. The CDC proposes to extend the CDC's existing authority to
acquire property, as a last resort, through eminent domain to vacant property (as defined in the
National City Municipal Code Section 7.06.20), and all commercial and industrial zoned
properties in those areas which are currently subject to eminent domain authority within the
National City Redevelopment Project Area. The current exemption for single family residences
would be expanded so that all housing uses, whether single-family or multi -family, are
specifically excluded from the use of eminent domain.
The Commission currently has the authority to acquire property through eminent domain until
July 18, 2007 in the following areas:
• Properties located immediately east and adjacent to National City Boulevard, between Division
Street and the south City limits.
• Properties located immediately west and adjacent to National City Boulevard, between Division
Street and State Route 54.
• Properties located immediately west and adjacent to Civic Center Drive, between Interstate 5 and
National City Boulevard.
• Properties located immediately south and adjacent to Civic Center Drive, between Interstate 5 and
National City Boulevard.
• Properties located immediately north and south and adjacent to 8th Street, between Interstate 5
and "D" Avenue.
• Properties west of Interstate 5, excepting the San Diego Unified Port District property.
• Specific properties located immediately southwest of the intersection of Plaza Boulevard and
Highland Avenue.
This amendment will extend the Commission's authority to acquire property through eminent
domain within these areas until 2019.
The 2007 Amendment also includes the addition and modification of redevelopment plan text as
it pertains to redevelopment actions and uses permitted in the project area. As proposed the
amendment would add a provision for the CDC to pay all or part of the value of the land and the
cost of the installation and construction of any publicly owned building, facility, structure, or
other improvement within or without the Project Area pursuant to Health and Safety Code
Section 33445.
The 2007 Amendment would modify Section VII (c) of the Redevelopment Plan, thus allowing
for used auto and truck sales when part of a new vehicle dealership and located on land within
the Transportation Center district. The 2007 Amendment will also change the current exclusion
of eminent domain on single-family homes (Exhibit D) to include all residential land uses, as
well as revising Exhibit C — "Public Facilities/Infrastructure Improvement Projects".
No other changes to the Redevelopment Plan for the National City Redevelopment Project arc
included in this amendment.
Community Development Commission of National City — Negative Declaration Page 1
Extension of the Authority to Use Eminent Domain
The Negative Declaration for the 2007 Amendment evaluated the potential environmental
impacts that could occur with making the proposed amendments to the existing Redevelopment
Plan. The Negative Declaration was mailed for a 20-day public review period beginning June 7,
2007 and is scheduled to end on June 27, 2007. Comments on the 2007 Redevelopment Plan
Amendment Negative Declaration should be submitted during this public review period. The
Negative Declaration will be considered for approval July 3, 2007.
The commercial and industrial properties within the Project Arca that are now subject to the use
of eminent domain are shown on the attached map. The change to the 2007 Redevelopment Plan
Amendment to extend the eminent domain time limit in the existing project area, revising
Exhibit D to exclude all residential land uses, revising the transportation center section and
revising Exhibit C — public facilities and infrastructure is now referred to as the 2007
Redevelopment Plan Amendment, which reflects the stated change.
B. CEQA PROVISIONS
As stated above, a Negative Declaration was prepared for the 2007 Redevelopment Plan
Amendment pursuant to Section 15070 of the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines
(CEQA Guidelines). The revision to the 2007 Amendment is now reflected by the 2007
Amendment, which did not cause or generate any significant effects.
C. ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
The Negative Declaration did not identify any significant or adverse environmental impacts
associated with the extension of the eminent domain time limit in the existing project area,
revising Exhibit D to exclude all residential land uses, revising the transportation center section
and revising Exhibit C — public facilities and infrastructure. Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines
Section 15073.5(c)(2), the Negative Declaration is adequate in its analysis of the 2007
Redevelopment Plan Amendment.
