GRANT AGREEMENT BETWEEN
THE SAN DIEGO ASSOCIATION OF GOVERNMENTS AND
[JURISDICTION NAME]
REGARDING [FULL PROJECT TITLE]
TRANSNET SMART GROWTH INCENTIVE PROGRAM – CYCLE 6
SANDAG CONTRACT NO. [ERP NUMBER]
THIS GRANT AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made and entered into effective as of the last signature
date below by and between the San Diego Association of Governments (“SANDAG”) and
[JURISDICTION NAME] (“Grantee”). This Agreement expires on [Month and Day, Year], unless amended
in writing by mutual agreement of the parties.
The following recitals are a substantive part of this Agreement:
A. The SANDAG Board of Directors allocates funds under the TransNet local sales tax program to
support local transportation-related infrastructure projects in the San Diego region through a
competitive process.
B. The TransNet Extension Ordinance contains provisions to fund the Smart Growth Incentive
Program (SGIP), for which funding began on April 1, 2008. The SGIP encompasses projects that
better integrate transportation and land use and recognizes the comprehensive effort to integrate
smart growth place-making, access to transit, and environmental justice.
C. In January 2010, the SANDAG Board of Directors approved Board Policy No. 035: Competitive
Grant Program Procedures, which is available in its updated version at
https://www.sandag.org/about/bylaws-and-policies. This Agreement and the Grantee’s performance
are subject to Board Policy No. 035, as the same may be amended from time to time, which
includes multiple “use it or lose it” provisions.
D. On November 22, 2024, the SANDAG Board of Directors approved the program eligibility and
evaluation criteria for the SGIP Cycle 6 Call for Projects, including up to $45 million in funding from
TransNet.
E. On [Insert Date], SANDAG issued a call for projects from local jurisdictions in San Diego County
that wish to apply for a portion of the TransNet SGIP funds for use on climate action planning,
planning, and capital improvement projects meeting certain criteria.
F. On [Insert Date], the SANDAG Board of Directors approved a list of recommended SGIP Cycle 6
projects for this competitive grant cycle, and one of those projects is the subject of this Agreement
(Project). The Project Scope of Work and Budget, and Project Schedule are included as
Attachments A and B, respectively.
G. The purpose of this Agreement is to establish the terms and conditions for SANDAG to provide
Grantee with funding to implement the Project.
H. Although SANDAG will provide financial assistance to Grantee to support the Project, SANDAG will
not take an active role or retain substantial control of the Project. Therefore, this Agreement is
characterized as a funding agreement rather than a cooperative agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, it is agreed as follows:
I. GRANT AWARD
A. The total amount payable by SANDAG to Grantee under this Agreement shall be the proportion of
actual Project costs allocated to grant funding in the Project Budget (Attachment A) and shall not

B. It is agreed and understood that this Agreement Fund Limit is a ceiling and that SANDAG will only
reimburse the allowable cost of services rendered as authorized by SANDAG at or below the Fund
Limit.
C. Grantee is included in the Regional Transportation Improvement Plan (RTIP). The TransNet MPO
ID for the Project is [ID Number].

Grantee may, with prior written approval from the SGIP Program Manager, reallocate funds between
tasks in the Project Budget as long as all of the following conditions are met:
1. The funds to be reallocated do not exceed an aggregate amount of ten percent for any particular task
in the Project Budget,
2. The reallocation does not negatively impact the benefits obtained from the Project, and
3. There is no increase to the Fund Limit or decrease to the matching funds.

Project, estimated to be [number including two decimals (e.g., 15.00)] percent based on the Project
Budget. If the actual cost of the Project exceeds the Project Budget, Grantee is responsible for 100
percent of the actual cost greater than the Project Budget.
A. Availability of Grant Funding
Except where expressly allowed in writing herein, credits for matching funds will be made or
allowed only for work performed on and after the Agreement effective date and before the
termination date of this Agreement, unless expressly permitted by SANDAG in writing.
B. Reduction of Matching Funds
The Grantee agrees that no matching funds may be reduced unless a reduction of the proportional
share of the grant funding provided by SANDAG under this Agreement is also made.
C. Prompt Payment of Grantee’s Share of Matching Funds
Grantee agrees to complete all actions necessary to provide its share of the Project costs at or
before the time the matching funds are needed from Grantee to pay for Project costs. The Grantee
agrees to provide not less than its cumulative required match amount of Project costs prior to
invoicing SANDAG for reimbursement. Each of Grantee’s invoices must include its matching fund

4. Project Implementation and Oversight Requirements
Grantee agrees to comply with the Performance Measures included in Attachment C.
5. Changes to Project Scope of Work
This Agreement was awarded to Grantee based on the application submitted by Grantee with
the intention that the awarded funds would be used to implement the Project as described in
the project application. Any substantive deviation from Grantee’s Scope of Work during project
implementation may require reevaluation or result in loss of funding. If Grantee knows or should
have known that substantive changes to the Project will occur or have occurred, Grantee will
immediately notify SANDAG in writing. SANDAG will then determine whether the Project is still
consistent with the overall objectives of the grant program and whether the changes would
have negatively affected the Project ranking during the competitive grant evaluation process.
SANDAG reserves the right to have grant funding withheld from Grantee, or refunded to
SANDAG, due to Grantee’s failure to complete the Project satisfactorily or due to substantive
changes to the Project not approved in advance by SANDAG.
B. Application of Laws
Should a federal or state law pre-empt or conflict with a local law, policy, or ordinance, the Grantee
must comply with the federal or state law and implementing regulations. No provision of this
Agreement requires the Grantee to observe or enforce compliance with any provision, perform any
other act, or do any other task in contravention of federal, state, territorial, or local law, regulation,
or ordinance. If compliance with any provision of this Agreement violates or would require the
Grantee to violate any law, the Grantee agrees to notify SANDAG immediately in writing. Should
this occur, SANDAG and the Grantee agree to make appropriate arrangements to proceed with or,
if necessary, terminate the Project or affected portions expeditiously.
C. Changes in Project Performance
The Grantee agrees to notify SANDAG immediately, in writing, of any change in local law,
conditions (including its legal, financial, or technical capacity), or any other event, including a force
majeure event, that may adversely affect the Grantee’s ability to perform the Project under the
terms of the Agreement and as required by Board Policy No. 035. The Grantee also agrees to notify
SANDAG immediately, in writing, of any current or prospective major dispute, breach, default, or
litigation that may adversely affect SANDAG’s interests in the Project; and agrees to inform
SANDAG, also in writing, before naming SANDAG as a party to litigation for any reason, in any
forum. At a minimum, the Grantee agrees to send each notice to SANDAG required by this
subsection to SANDAG’s Grants Program Manager.
[Include the following CIS language for capital projects only.]
D. Compliance Information System (CIS)
If Grantee will utilize persons other than its own employees to carry out work, Grantee and all of its
third-party contractors and subcontractors (hereinafter “subcontractors”) shall report payment
details using the SANDAG web-based CIS by the 15th of each month following receipt of payment
by SANDAG. The CIS is available at https://sandag.sbdbe.com. CIS allows SANDAG to monitor the
promptness of payment to subcontractors and will allow Grantee and its subcontractors to manage
their own records, maintain accurate contract information, and report payment details online. CIS is
mandatory for Grantee and subcontractors to use unless SANDAG instructs otherwise. After
execution of this Agreement, Grantee will receive instructions on how to set up its account and
enter required subcontractor data into CIS via an internet browser. Grantee must require each
subcontractor to enter the required payment information into CIS. Failure of Grantee or its
Page 50 of 307
5
subcontractors to enter required information and confirm payments on a timely basis will delay
payment by SANDAG to Grantee until Grantee has cured any defects or provided the missing
information. Should Grantee fail to provide the required information, SANDAG shall have sole
discretion regarding whether to withhold payment or terminate this Agreement.
E. Licenses and Permits
Grantee represents and warrants to SANDAG that Grantee and its subcontractors will have all
necessary licenses, permits, qualifications and approvals of whatever nature that are required to
legally practice its profession and perform services under this Agreement at all times during the
term of this Agreement.
[Include the following DIR language for capital projects only.]
F. Registration with DIR and Prevailing Wage Requirements
All provisions of this section shall be passed through to any subcontractors performing work related
to this Agreement. Additional requirements for public works projects are included in Attachment D.
1. Payment of Prevailing Wages
Grantee acknowledges that any work that qualifies as a “public work” within the meaning of
California Labor Code section 1720 shall cause Grantee and its subcontractors to comply with the
provisions of California Labor Code sections 1775 et seq, which includes the payment of
prevailing wages to all workers performing prevailing wage work.
2. Public Works Contractor Registration With DIR
If Grantee or its subcontractors will engage in the performance of a public work as defined by
California Labor Code sections 1720 et seq. and will utilize persons who are not employees of a
public entity, registration and payment of an annual registration fee to the DIR shall be required of
each entity performing the work. This requirement applies to anyone affected by the public works
statutes found in the California Labor Code, including but not limited to landscapers, fencers,
surveyors, soil testers, dredgers, heavy equipment operators, and inspectors. Registration can be
completed online at https://www.dir.ca.gov/public-works/contractor-registration.html.
3. Subcontract Requirements
If Grantee will award any subcontracts for the performance of a public work:
a. Grantee will create a Project Registration Form (PWC-100 form) for each subcontract using
the online database of the California Department of Industrial Relations (DIR).
b. Grantee shall notify SANDAG ten business days prior to the subcontractor performing the
prevailing wage work so SANDAG can prepare for labor compliance monitoring. Grantee
will provide to SANDAG the name, DIR registration number, and contractor’s license
numbers of each subcontractor so SANDAG or its labor compliance designee can verify,
that the selected subcontractor is currently licensed and registered with the DIR. If
SANDAG finds that the selected subcontractor is not licensed and registered with the DIR,
SANDAG will promptly notify Grantee and Grantee will be required to notify the selected
subcontractor to stop work.
c. If there are any changes to a subcontractor or lower-tier subcontractor, Grantee will advise
SANDAG of these changes as soon as those changes are known to the Grantee.

4. Certified Payroll Reporting to DIR
Grantee and all subcontractors performing a public work under this Agreement shall use the
DIR’s Electronic Certified Payroll Reporting (eCPR) System, available at
https://www.dir.ca.gov/Public-Works/Certified-Payroll-Reporting.html, to furnish certified payroll
records to the California Labor Commissioner. Grantee and its subcontractors are required to
utilize the eCPR system throughout the entire duration of the public work.
5. Certified Payroll Reporting to SANDAG
In addition to the eCPR system, Grantee and all subcontractors performing a public work shall
utilize the SANDAG Labor Compliance Monitoring System (LCMS), available at
https://www.sandag.org/about/work-with-us/labor-compliance-monitoring-program to furnish
certified payroll records to SANDAG. If Grantee desires to utilize a different system to provide
certified payroll records to SANDAG, it must request prior authorization and receive approval in
writing from the Grants Program Manager.
Grantee will be required to enter all of its subcontractors’ information into LCMS on an ongoing
basis. The SANDAG LCMS will allow Grantee to convert certified payroll records to the XML file
format for upload to the DIR system.
6. Retention and Inspection of Payroll Records and Employment of Registered Apprentices
Grantee agrees to comply and cause any of its applicable subcontractors to comply with Labor
Code section 1776 regarding retention and inspection of payroll records and noncompliance
penalties, Labor Code section 1777.5 regarding employment of registered apprentices, and Labor
Code section 1813 regarding forfeiture for violations of the maximum hours per day and per week
provisions contained in the same chapter. ln order to ensure compliance with the Labor Code,
Grantee and its subcontractors shall be subject to site visits and spot-check audits by SANDAG
or its labor compliance designee. During these audits and inspections, SANDAG or its designee
may request Grantee or subcontractor records, including but not limited to certified payroll,
apprenticeship, and other ancillary records at any time during the term of the Agreement.
If such an audit or site visit discloses that Grantee or a subcontractor has not kept complete and
accurate records or complied with the requirements of the California Labor Code, SANDAG will
notify the Grantee and request that the Grantee complete a written Action Plan that includes
specific actions the Grantee will take to remedy the outstanding issues and a timeline to bring the
Project into compliance. Should the Grantee be unable to submit its Action Plan by the deadline
included in the notice or complete its Action Plan in a timely manner, SANDAG will notify the DIR
of potential labor compliance issues related to the Project.
Additionally, if Grantee was provided an exception to utilizing the SANDAG LCMS, Grantee will
be required to input and submit all applicable certified payrolls and accompanying documentation
related to the Project, retroactive to the start of the Project, into the SANDAG LCMS.
G. Standard of Care
Grantee expressly warrants that the work to be performed under this Agreement shall be performed
in accordance with the applicable standard of care. Where approval by SANDAG, its management,
or other representative of SANDAG is indicated in the Scope of Work, it is understood to be
conceptual approval only and does not relieve the Grantee of responsibility for complying with all
laws, codes, industry standards, and liability for damages caused by negligent acts, errors,
omissions, noncompliance with industry standards, or the willful misconduct of the Grantee or its
third-party contractors.
Page 52 of 307
7
H. Third-Party Contracting
Although the Grantee may delegate any or almost all Project responsibilities to one or more third-
party contractors, the Grantee agrees that it, rather than any third-party contractor, is ultimately
responsible for compliance with all applicable laws, regulations, and this Agreement. The first
invoice utilizing any third-party contractor shall be accompanied by evidence of compliance with the
following requirements:
1. Competitive Procurement
Grantee shall not award contracts with a cumulative value over $10,000 based on a
noncompetitive procurement for work to be performed under this Agreement without the prior
written approval of the SGIP Program Manager for such sole source. A Sole Source Request
template can be obtained by contacting the SGIP Program Manager. Grantee shall submit its
Request for Proposals or bid solicitation documents to SANDAG staff when requesting
reimbursement of any third-party contractor expenses to ensure a competitive process was
used.
If Grantee hires a third-party contractor to carry out work funded under this Agreement,
Grantee shall: prepare a cost estimate prior to soliciting proposals/bids; publicly advertise for
competing proposals/bids for the work; for professional services, use cost as a significant
evaluation factor in selecting the third-party contractor; document a record of negotiation
establishing that the amount paid by Grantee for the work is fair and reasonable; and pass
through the relevant obligations in this Agreement to the third-party contractor.
2. Debarment
Grantee and its third-party contractors shall review debarment and suspension websites to
confirm the proposed third-party contractor has not been disqualified from doing business
with government entities. The documentation showing a lack of debarment shall be obtained
from the following two websites:
• Grantee will check the System for Award Management (SAM) at www.sam.gov to verify
the third-party contractor and all of its subcontractors are not currently debarred or
suspended by the federal government.
• Entities in the United States are banned from doing business with companies with
ownership based in countries such as Cuba, Sudan and China due to United States trade
sanctions. A search on the US Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC)
website can ensure Grantee will not be doing business with a vendor that is subject to
trade sanctions. This can be done at https://sanctionssearch.ofac.treas.gov/.
3. Flowdown
Grantee agrees to take appropriate measures necessary, including the execution of a
subagreement, lease, third-party contract, or other contractual agreement, to ensure that all
Project participants, including alternate payees or third-party contractors at any tier, comply
with all applicable federal laws, regulations, policies affecting Project implementation and
Agreement requirements. In addition, if an entity other than the Grantee is expected to fulfill
any responsibilities typically performed by the Grantee, the Grantee agrees to assure that the
entity carries out the Grantee’s responsibilities as outlined in this Agreement.
Page 53 of 307
8
4. No SANDAG Obligations to Third Parties
In connection with the Project, the Grantee agrees that SANDAG shall not be subject to any
obligations or liabilities to any subcontractor, lessee, third-party contractor at any tier, or other
person or entity that is not a party to the Agreement for the Project. Notwithstanding that
SANDAG may have concurred in or approved any solicitation, subagreement, lease,
alternate payee designation, or third-party contract at any tier, SANDAG has no obligations or
liabilities to any entity other than the Grantee.
5. Equipment Purchases
Grantee shall maintain ownership of any equipment purchased using Agreement funding and
shall use such equipment only for the purposes outlined in this Agreement. The parties agree
to meet and confer in good faith to ensure the equipment's continued use for the intended
purposes, which may include reimbursement to SANDAG when the fair market value of the
equipment at Project completion exceeds $5,000. SANDAG and Grantee further agree that
Grantee shall keep an inventory record for each piece of equipment purchased under this
Agreement and maintain each piece of equipment in good operating order consistent with the
purposes for which they were intended. SANDAG shall have the right to conduct periodic
maintenance inspections to confirm the equipment's existence, condition, and proper
maintenance.
VII. ETHICS
A. Grantee Code of Conduct/Standards of Conduct
The Grantee agrees to maintain a written code of conduct or standards of conduct that shall govern
the actions of its officers, employees, council or board members, or agents engaged in the award or
administration of subagreements, leases, or third-party contracts supported with the grant funding.
The Grantee agrees that its code of conduct or standards of conduct shall specify that its officers,
employees, council or board members, or agents may neither solicit nor accept gratuities, favors, or
anything of monetary value from any present or potential subcontractor, lessee, or third-party
contractor at any tier or agent thereof. The Grantee may set de minimis rules where the financial
interest is not substantial, or the gift is an unsolicited item of nominal intrinsic value. The Grantee
agrees that its code of conduct or standards of conduct shall also prohibit its officers, employees,
board members, or agents from using their respective positions in a manner that presents a real or
apparent personal or organizational conflict of interest or personal gain. As permitted by state or
local law or regulations, the Grantee agrees that its code of conduct or standards of conduct shall
include penalties, sanctions, or other disciplinary actions for violations by its officers, employees,
council or board members, or their agents, or its third-party contractors or subcontractors or their
agents.
B. Personal Conflicts of Interest
The Grantee agrees that its code of conduct or standards of conduct shall prohibit the Grantee’s
employees, officers, council or board members, or agents from participating in the selection, award,
or administration of any third-party contract or subagreement supported by the grant funding if a
real or apparent conflict of interest would be involved. Such a conflict would arise when an
employee, officer, board member, or agent, including any member of their immediate family,
partner, or organization that employs, or intends to employ, any of the parties listed herein have a
financial interest in a firm competing for award.
Page 54 of 307
9
C. Organizational Conflicts of Interest
The Grantee agrees that its code of conduct or standards of conduct shall include procedures for
identifying and preventing real and apparent organizational conflicts of interest. An organizational
conflict of interest exists when the nature of the work to be performed under a proposed third-party
contract or subagreement may, without some restrictions on future activities, result in an unfair
competitive advantage to the third-party contractor or subcontractor or impair its objectivity in
performing the contract work.
D. SANDAG Code of Conduct
SANDAG has established policies concerning potential conflicts of interest. These policies apply to
Grantee. For all awards by SANDAG, any practices that might result in unlawful activity are
prohibited, including, but not limited to, rebates, kickbacks, or other unlawful considerations.
SANDAG staff members are specifically prohibited from participating in the selection process when
those staff have a close personal relationship, family relationship, or past (within the last 12
months), present, or potential business or employment relationship with a person or business entity
seeking a contract with SANDAG. It is unlawful for any contract to be made by SANDAG if any
individual Board member or staff has a prohibited financial interest in the contract. Staff also are
prohibited from soliciting or accepting gratuities from any organization seeking funding from
SANDAG. SANDAG’s officers, employees, agents, and board members shall not solicit or accept
gifts, gratuities, favors, or anything of monetary value from consultants, potential consultants, or
parties to subagreements. By signing this Agreement, Grantee affirms that it has no knowledge of
an ethical violation by SANDAG staff or Grantee. If Grantee has any reason to believe a conflict of
interest exists concerning the Agreement or the Project, it shall notify the SANDAG Office of
General Counsel immediately.
E. Bonus or Commission
The Grantee affirms that it has not paid and agrees not to pay any bonus or commission to obtain
approval of its grant funding application for the Project.
F. False or Fraudulent Statements or Claims
The Grantee acknowledges and agrees that by executing the Agreement for the Project, the
Grantee certifies or affirms the truthfulness and accuracy of each statement it has made, it makes,
or it may make in connection with the Project, including, but not limited to, the Grantee’s grant
application, progress reports, and invoices.
VIII. PAYMENTS
A. Reimbursement Basis
Payment to Grantee for work performed pursuant to this Agreement will be on a reimbursement
basis and will be based on actual, substantiated, and allowable costs incurred by the Grantee with
documentation provided to SANDAG.
B. Alternate Payee
If the Grantee designates a party as an Alternate Payee, Alternate Payee is authorized to submit
payment requests directly to SANDAG to receive reimbursement for allowable Project costs. This
does not alleviate Grantee from all obligations under this Grant Agreement.
Page 55 of 307
10
C. Invoicing
Grantee or Alternate Payee is required to submit invoices no more often than quarterly using a
template provided by SANDAG. Invoices must be accompanied by a quarterly report using the
quarterly report template provided by SANDAG. SANDAG will make payments for eligible amounts
to Grantee or Alternate Payee as promptly as SANDAG fiscal procedures permit upon receipt of
Grantee’s or Alternate Payee’s itemized signed invoice(s), backup, deliverables, and confirmation
by the SGIP Program Manager that Grantee is in compliance with the reporting and other
requirements in this Agreement. SANDAG shall retain 10 percent from the amounts invoiced until
the satisfactory completion of the Project. SANDAG shall promptly pay retention amounts to
Grantee or Alternate Payee following satisfactory completion of the Scope of Work, including but
not limited to receipt of all deliverables, completion of a final site visit and notification that all labor
compliance requirements have been met (for capital projects), the final invoice, and all required
documentation.
D. Eligible Costs
The Grantee agrees that Project costs eligible for grant funding must comply with the following
requirements unless SANDAG determines otherwise in writing. To be eligible for reimbursement,
Project costs must be:
1. Consistent with the Project Scope of Work, Schedule, and Project Budget, and other provisions
of the Agreement.
2. Necessary to accomplish the Project.
3. Reasonable for the goods or services purchased.
4. Actual net costs to the Grantee (i.e., the price paid minus any refunds, rebates, or other items of
value received by the Grantee that reduces the cost actually incurred, excluding program
income). Project-generated revenue realized by the Grantee shall be used to support the
Project. Project-generated revenue and expenditures, if any, shall be reported at the end of the
Agreement period.
5. Incurred for work performed on or after the Agreement effective date and before the termination
date, and also must have been paid for by the Grantee.
6. Satisfactorily documented with supporting documentation, which will be submitted with each
invoice. Copies of third-party contractor invoices are required for goods or services provided by
third parties.
7. Treated consistently following generally accepted accounting principles and procedures for the
Grantee and any third-party contractors and subcontractors, (see Section entitled “Accounting,
Reporting, Record Retention, and Access”).
8. Eligible for grant funding as part of the grant program through which the funds were awarded.
9. Indirect costs are only allowable if they were included in the Grantee’s original project
application and Project Budget and were approved by SANDAG.
E. Excluded Costs
In determining the amount of TransNet funds SANDAG will provide for the Project, SANDAG will
exclude the following:
Page 56 of 307
11
1. Any Project cost incurred by the Grantee before the Effective Date of the Agreement or
applicable Amendment.
2. Any cost that is not included in the Project Budget.
3. Any cost for Project property or services received in connection with a subagreement, lease,
third-party contract, or other arrangement that is required to be, but has not been, concurred in
or approved in writing by SANDAG.
4. Any cost ineligible for SANDAG participation as provided by applicable laws, regulations, or
policies.
5. Indirect costs unless they were included in the Grantee’s original project application and
Project Budget and were approved by SANDAG.
The Grantee understands and agrees that payment to the Grantee for any Project cost does not
constitute SANDAG’s final decision about whether that cost is allowable and eligible for payment
under the Project and does not constitute a waiver of any violation by the Grantee of the terms of
this Agreement or Board Policy No. 035 (as the same may be amended). The Grantee
acknowledges that SANDAG will not make a final determination about the allowability and eligibility
of any cost until the final payment has been made on the Project or the results of an audit of the
Project requested by SANDAG or its Independent Taxpayers’ Oversight Committee (ITOC) have
been completed, whichever occurs latest. If SANDAG determines that the Grantee is not entitled to
receive any portion of the grant funding requested or paid, SANDAG will notify the Grantee in
writing, stating its reasons. The Grantee agrees that Project closeout will not alter the Grantee’s
responsibility to return any funds due to SANDAG as a result of later refunds, corrections,
performance deficiencies, or other similar actions; nor will Project closeout alter SANDAG’s right to
disallow costs and recover funds provided for the Project on the basis of a later audit or other
review. Upon notification to the Grantee that specific amounts are owed to SANDAG, whether for
excess payments of grant funding, disallowed costs, or funds recovered from third parties or
elsewhere, the Grantee agrees to promptly remit to SANDAG the amounts owed, including
applicable interest, penalties and administrative charges.
IX. ACCOUNTING, REPORTING, RECORD RETENTION, AND ACCESS
A. Project Accounts
The Grantee and Alternate Payee agree to establish and maintain for the Project either a separate
set of accounts or separate accounts within the framework of an established accounting system
that can be identified with the Project. The Grantee and Alternate Payee also agree to maintain
documentation of all checks, payrolls, invoices, contracts, vouchers, orders, or other accounting
documents related in whole or in part to the Project so that they may be clearly identified, readily
accessible, and available to SANDAG upon request and, to the extent feasible, kept separate from
documents not related to the Project.
B. Reports
1. The Grantee agrees to submit to SANDAG all reports required by law and regulation, policy,
this Agreement, or any other reports SANDAG may specify. SANDAG reserves the right to
specify that records be submitted in particular formats. Grantee may be required to attend
meetings of SANDAG staff and committees, including but not limited to the TransNet
Independent Taxpayer Oversight Committee, Transportation and Regional Planning
Committees and the SANDAG Board of Directors, to report on its progress and respond to
questions from Committee or Board Members or the public.
Page 57 of 307
12
2. Grantee’s performance shall be monitored for consistency with the Scope of Work. SANDAG
will utilize Performance Measures (Attachment C) and the SANDAG Grant Monitoring Checklist
provided by the SGIP Program Manager, to document compliance with this Agreement.
Grantee’s performance will be measured against the Performance Measures during the term of
this Agreement. If the Grantee does not comply with provisions in this Agreement or achieve
minimum performance requirements, SANDAG will issue Grantee a written Notice to Complete
a Recovery Plan (Notice). Grantee’s Recovery Plan shall include a detailed description of how
Grantee intends to come into compliance with the Agreement or Performance Measures.
Grantee’s Recovery Plan must include an implementation schedule that reflects compliance
with the Agreement as referenced in the Notice, or achievement of its performance measure
minimums within three months following the issue date of the Notice. Grantee must submit its
Recovery Plan to the SGIP Program Manager within 30 calendar days following the issue date
of the Notice. If Grantee’s performance is inconsistent with that proposed in its Recovery Plan,
SANDAG, in its sole discretion, may terminate this Agreement.
3. Grantee must submit quarterly reports and invoices to SANDAG, detailing accomplishments in
the quarter, anticipated progress next quarter, pending issues and actions toward resolution,
and status of the Project’s budget, schedule, and Performance Measures using templates
provided by SANDAG. The Quarterly Progress Report shall be submitted to SANDAG within 30
days after each period close, covering January 1 to March 31; April 1 to June 30; July 1 to
September 30; and October 1 to December 31. Grantee will not be paid until all reports are
completed and provided to SANDAG in the format and with the content SANDAG requires.
Furthermore, the Grantee agrees to provide project milestone information (such as
presentations to community groups, other agencies, and elected officials, groundbreakings, and
ribbon-cuttings) to support media and communications efforts. Grantee needs to document and
track in-kind contributions designated as matching funds as part of project management.
Grantee must provide all deliverables identified in the Scope of Work in order to receive
payment.
4. Press materials shall be provided to SANDAG staff before they are distributed. SANDAG
logo(s) should be included in press materials and other project collateral based on logo usage
guidelines to be provided by SANDAG. Grantee agrees to provide project milestone information
to support media and communications efforts.
5. Grantee is responsible for the following photo documentation:
• For capital projects, pre-construction photos, which should illustrate the conditions of the
project site before construction and demonstrate the need for improved facilities.
• Project milestone photos (such as workshops, presentations to community groups, other
agencies, and elected officials)
• Photos should be high resolution (at least 4 inches by 6 inches with a minimum of 300
pixels per inch) and be provided to SANDAG with captions including project descriptions,
dates, locations, and the names of those featured, if appropriate. Grantees must obtain
the consent of all persons featured in photos (or that of a parent or guardian of persons
under the age of 18) by using the SANDAG Photo and Testimonial Release form to be
provided by SANDAG, or a similar release form developed by Grantee and agreed upon
by SANDAG.
C. Record Retention
During the course of the Project and for three years thereafter from the date of transmission of the
final invoice, the Grantee agrees to maintain, intact and readily accessible, all communications,
data, documents, reports, records, contracts, and supporting materials relating to the Project, as
Page 58 of 307
13
SANDAG may require. All communications and information provided to SANDAG become the
property of SANDAG and public records, as such, may be subject to public review. Please see
SANDAG’s Board Policy No. 015: Records Management Policy, which is available at
https://www.sandag.org/about/bylaws-and-policies, for information regarding the treatment of
documents designated as confidential.
D. Meeting Records
Grantee shall provide SANDAG with agendas and meeting summaries for all community meetings.
SANDAG staff may attend any meetings as appropriate.
E. Access to Records of Grantees and Third-Party Contractors
The Grantee agrees to permit, and require its third-party contractors to permit, SANDAG or its
authorized representatives, upon request, to inspect all Project work, materials, payrolls, and other
data, and to audit the books, records, and accounts of the Grantee and its third-party contractors
pertaining to the Project.
X. PROJECT COMPLETION, AUDIT, SETTLEMENT, AND CLOSEOUT
A. Project Completion
Within 90 calendar days following Project completion or termination by SANDAG, the Grantee
agrees to submit a final invoice of Project expenses and final reports, as applicable. All payments
made to the Grantee shall be subject to review for compliance by SANDAG with the requirements
of this Agreement and shall be subject to an audit upon completion of the Project.
B. Project Audit
The Grantee agrees to have financial, performance, and compliance audits performed as SANDAG
may require. The Grantee agrees that Project closeout will not alter the Grantee’s audit
responsibilities. Audit costs are allowable Project costs.
C. Performance Audit
The Grantee agrees to cooperate with SANDAG or ITOC regarding any performance audit
performed on the Project.
D. Project Closeout
Project closeout occurs when SANDAG notifies the Grantee that SANDAG has closed the Project,
and, if applicable, either forwards the final grant funding payment and or acknowledges that the
Grantee has remitted the proper refund. The Grantee agrees that Project closeout by SANDAG
does not invalidate any continuing requirements imposed by the Agreement or any unmet
requirements outlined in a written notification from SANDAG.
XI. TIMELY PROGRESS AND RIGHT OF SANDAG TO TERMINATE
A. Grantee shall make diligent and timely progress toward completion of the Project within the
timelines outlined in the Project Schedule and consistent with Board Policy No. 035 and any
amendments thereto.
B. In the event Grantee encounters or anticipates difficulty in meeting the Project Schedule, the
Grantee shall immediately notify the SGIP Program Manager in writing, and shall provide pertinent
details, including the reason(s) for the delay in performance and the date by which Grantee expects
Page 59 of 307
14
to complete performance or delivery. This notification shall be informational in character only and
receipt of it shall not be construed as a waiver by SANDAG of a project delivery schedule or date,
or any rights or remedies provided by this Agreement, including Board Policy No. 035
requirements.
C. Grantee agrees that SANDAG, at its sole discretion, may suspend or terminate all or any part of the
grant funding if the Grantee fails to make reasonable progress on the Project and/or violates the
terms of the Agreement or Board Policy No. 035 (as the same may be amended from time to time),
or if SANDAG determines that the continuation of grant funding for the Project would not
adequately serve the purpose of the laws or policies authorizing the Project.
D. In general, termination of grant funding for the Project will not invalidate obligations properly
incurred by the Grantee before the termination date to the extent those obligations cannot be
canceled. If, however, SANDAG determines that the Grantee has willfully misused grant funding by
failing to make adequate progress, complete the Scope of Work, meet the performance measures,
or failing to comply with the terms of the Agreement, SANDAG reserves the right to require the
Grantee to refund to SANDAG the entire amount of grant funding provided for the Project or any
lesser amount as SANDAG may determine.
E. Expiration of any Project time period established in the Project Schedule will not automatically
constitute an expiration or termination of the Agreement for the Project. However, Grantee must
request, and SANDAG may agree to amend the Agreement in writing if the Project Schedule will
not be met. An amendment to the Project Schedule may be made at SANDAG’s discretion if
Grantee’s request is consistent with the provisions of Board Policy No. 035.
XII. CIVIL RIGHTS
The Grantee agrees to comply with all applicable civil rights laws, regulations and policies and shall
include the provisions of this section in each subagreement, lease, third-party contract or other legally
binding document to perform work funded by this Agreement. Applicable civil rights laws, regulations and
policies include, but are not limited to, the following:
A. Nondiscrimination
SANDAG implements its programs without regard to income level, disability, race, color, and
national origin in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act and Title VI of the Civil Rights
Act. Grantee shall prohibit discrimination on these grounds, notify the public of their rights under
these laws, and utilize a process for addressing complaints of discrimination. Furthermore, Grantee
shall make the procedures for filing a complaint available to members of the public and will keep a
log of all such complaints. Grantee must notify SANDAG immediately if a complaint related to the
Project or program funded by this grant is lodged. If Grantee receives a Title VI-related or ADA-
related complaint, Grantee must notify SANDAG in writing within 72 hours of receiving the
complaint so that SANDAG can determine whether it needs to carry out its own investigation.
B. Equal Employment Opportunity
During the performance of this Agreement, Grantee and all of its third-party contractors, if any, shall
not unlawfully discriminate, harass, or allow harassment against any employee or applicant for
employment because of sex, race, color, ancestry, religious creed, national origin, disability
(including HIV and AIDS), mental disability, medical condition (cancer), age (over 40), marital
status, denial of family and medical care leave, denial of pregnancy disability leave, veteran status,
or sexual orientation. Grantee and its third-party contractors shall ensure that the evaluation and
treatment of their employees and applicants for employment are free from such discrimination and
harassment. Grantee and its third-party contractors shall comply with the provisions of the Fair
Employment and Housing Act (California Government Code Section 12900, et seq.) and the
Page 60 of 307
15
applicable regulations promulgated thereunder (California Code of Regulations, Title 2, Section
7285.0, et seq.). The applicable regulations of the Fair Employment and Housing Commission
implementing California Government Code Section 12990 (a-f), outlined in Chapter 5 of Division 4
of Title 2 of the California Code of Regulations, are incorporated into this Agreement by this
reference and are made a part hereof as if set forth in full. Grantee and its third-party contractors
shall give written notice of their obligations under this clause to labor organizations with a collective
bargaining or other Agreement.
XIII. DISPUTES AND VENUE
A. Choice of Law
This Agreement shall be interpreted under the laws of the State of California.
B. Dispute Resolution Process

continue to perform unless SANDAG informs Grantee in writing to cease performance. The dispute
resolution process for disputes arising under this Agreement shall be as follows:
1. Grantee shall submit a statement of the grounds for the dispute, including all pertinent dates,
names of persons involved, and supporting documentation, to the SGIP Program Manager.
The SGIP Program Manager and other appropriate SANDAG staff will review the
documentation promptly and reply to Grantee within 20 calendar days. Upon receipt of an
adverse decision by SANDAG, Grantee may submit a request for reconsideration to
SANDAG’s Chief Executive Officer or designee. The request for reconsideration must be
received within ten calendar days from the postmark date of SANDAG’s reply. The Chief
Executive Officer or designee will respond in writing to the request for reconsideration within
ten working days.
2. If Grantee is dissatisfied with the results following the exhaustion of the above dispute
resolution procedures, Grantee shall make a written request to SANDAG for appeal to the
SANDAG applicable policy advisory committee . SANDAG shall respond to a request for
mediation within 30 calendar days. The decision of the applicable policy advisory committee
shall be final. In the event that more than one policy advisory committee is responsible to make
recommendations related to SGIP grant awards, the written request shall be submitted to the
next regularly scheduled policy advisory committee.
C. Venue
If any action is brought to interpret or enforce any term of this Agreement, the action shall be
brought in a state or federal court situated in the County of San Diego, State of California. In the
event of any such litigation between the parties, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover all
reasonable costs incurred, including reasonable attorney’s fees, litigation and collection expenses,
witness fees, and court costs as determined by the court.

XV. INDEMNIFICATION AND HOLD HARMLESS
A. Generally
With regard to any claim, protest, or litigation arising from or related to the Grantee’s performance
in connection with or incidental to the Project or this Agreement, Grantee agrees to defend,
indemnify, protect, and hold SANDAG and its agents, officers, Board members, and employees
harmless from and against any and all claims, including, but not limited to prevailing wage claims
against the Project, asserted or established liability for damages or injuries to any person or
property, including injury to the Grantee’s or its third-party contractors’ employees, agents, or
officers, which arise from or are connected with or are caused or claimed to be caused by the
negligent, reckless, or willful acts or omissions of the Grantee and its third-party contractors and
their agents, officers, or employees, in performing the work or services herein, and all expenses of
investigating and defending against same, including attorney fees and costs; provided, however,
that the Grantee’s duty to indemnify and hold harmless shall not include any claims or liability
arising from the established sole negligence or willful misconduct of SANDAG, its Board of
Directors, agents, officers, or employees.
B. Intellectual Property
Upon request by SANDAG, the Grantee agrees to indemnify, save, and hold harmless SANDAG
and its Board of Directors, officers, agents, and employees acting within the scope of their official
duties against any liability, including costs and expenses, resulting from any willful or intentional
violation by the Grantee of proprietary rights, copyrights, or right of privacy, arising out of the
publication, translation, reproduction, delivery, use, or disposition of any data furnished under the
Project. The Grantee shall not be required to indemnify SANDAG for any liability caused solely by
the wrongful acts of SANDAG employees or agents.
XVI. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR
A. Status of Grantee
Grantee shall perform the services provided for within this Agreement as an independent
contractor, not an employee of SANDAG. Grantee shall be under the control of SANDAG as to the
result to be accomplished and not the means. The payments made to Grantee under this
Agreement shall be the full compensation to which Grantee is entitled. SANDAG shall not make
any federal or state tax withholdings on behalf of Grantee. SANDAG shall not be required to pay
any workers’ compensation insurance on behalf of Grantee. Grantee agrees to indemnify SANDAG
for any tax, retirement contribution, social security, overtime payment, or workers’ compensation

have no authority, express or implied, to bind SANDAG or its members, agents, or employees to
any obligation whatsoever unless expressly provided for in this Agreement.

ATTACHMENT D
PUBLIC WORKS REQUIREMENTS
Any subcontract entered into as a result of the Agreement, shall contain all the provisions of these Public
Works Requirements. Use of the term “Contractor” herein shall refer to “Grantee and its third-party
contractors” as defined in the Agreement and use of the term “Contract” herein shall refer to the
“Agreement”.
7 1.01A LABOR CODE REQUIREMENTS
7 1.01A(1) HOURS OF LABOR
Eight (8) hours labor constitutes a legal day’s work. The Contractor or any subcontractor under the
Contractor shall forfeit, as a penalty to SANDAG, twenty five dollars ($25) for each worker employed in
the execution of the Contract by the respective Contractor or subcontractor for each calendar day during
which that worker is required or permitted to work more than 8 hours in any one calendar day and forty
(40) hours in any one calendar week in violation of the requirements of the Labor Code, and in particular,
§§1810 - 1815, thereof, inclusive, except that work performed by employees of Contractors in excess of
eight (8) hours per day, and forty (40) hours during any one week, shall be permitted upon compensation
for all hours worked in excess of eight (8) hours per day at not less than one and one half times the basic
rate of pay, as provided in §1815 thereof.
7 1.01A(2) PREVAILING WAGE
The Contractor shall pay wage rates consistent with the State of California Labor Code and the California
Department of Industrial Relations.
The wage rates determined by the Director of Industrial Relations can be found in the State Prevailing
Wage Rates. If the published wage rate does not refer to a predetermined wage rate to be paid after the
expiration date, said published rate of wage shall be in effect for the life of this Contract. If the published
wage rate refers to a predetermined wage rate to become effective upon expiration of the published wage
rate and the predetermined wage rate is on file with the Department of Industrial Relations, such
predetermined wage rate shall become effective on the date following the expiration date and shall apply
to this Contract in the same manner as if it had been published in said publication. If the predetermined
wage rate refers to one or more additional expiration dates with additional predetermined wage rates,
which expiration dates occur during the life of this Contract, each successive predetermined wage rate
shall apply to this Contract on the date following the expiration date of the previous wage rate. If the last
of such predetermined wage rates expires during the life of this Contract, such wage rate shall apply to
the balance of the Contract.
Contractor and any subcontractor under Contractor shall comply with Labor Code §§1774 and 1775.
Pursuant to Section 1775, the Contractor and any subcontractor under the Contractor shall forfeit to
SANDAG a penalty of not more than two-hundred dollars ($200) for each calendar day, or portion thereof,
for each worker paid less than the prevailing rates as determined by the Director of Industrial Relations
for the work or craft in which the worker is employed for any public work done under the Contract by the
Contractor or by any subcontractor under the Contractor in violation of the requirements of the Labor
Code and in particular, Labor Code §§ 1770 to 1780, inclusive. The amount of this forfeiture shall be
determined by the Labor Commissioner and shall be based on consideration of the mistake,
inadvertence, or neglect of the Contractor or subcontractor in failing to pay the correct rate of prevailing
wages, or the previous record of the Contractor or subcontractor in meeting their respective prevailing
wage obligations, or the willful failure by the Contractor or subcontractor to pay the correct rates of
prevailing wages. A mistake, inadvertence, or neglect in failing to pay the correct rate of prevailing wages
is not excusable if the Contractor or subcontractor had knowledge of the obligations under the Labor
Code. In addition to the penalty and pursuant to Labor Code §1775, the difference between the prevailing
wage rates and the amount paid to each worker for each calendar day or portion thereof for which each
Page 67 of 307
22
worker was paid less than the prevailing wage rate shall be paid to each worker by the Contractor or
subcontractor. If a worker employed by a subcontractor on a public works project is not paid the general
prevailing per diem wages by the subcontractor, the prime contractor of the project is not liable for the
penalties described above unless the prime contractor had knowledge of that failure of the subcontractor
to pay the specified prevailing rate of wages to those workers or unless the prime contractor fails to
comply with all of the following requirements:
A. The contract executed between Contractor and the subcontractor for the performance of work on
the Project shall include a copy of the requirements in §§1720.9, 1771, 1775, 1776, 1777.5, 1813, and
1815 of the Labor Code.
B. Contractor shall monitor the payment of the specified general prevailing rate of per diem wages
by the subcontractor to the employees, by periodic review of the certified payroll records of the
subcontractor.
C. Upon becoming aware of the subcontractor’s failure to pay the specified prevailing rate of wages
to the subcontractor’s workers, the contractor shall diligently take corrective action to halt or rectify the
failure, including, but not limited to, retaining sufficient funds due the subcontractor for work performed on
the public works project.
D. Prior to making final payment to the subcontractor for work performed on the public works project,
Contractor shall obtain an affidavit signed under penalty of perjury from the subcontractor that the
subcontractor has paid the specified general prevailing rate of per diem wages to the subcontractor’s
employees on the public works project and any amounts due pursuant to Section 1813 of the Labor
Code.
Pursuant to Section 1775 of the Labor Code, the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement shall notify a
contractor on a public works project within fifteen (15) days of the receipt by the Division of Labor
Standards Enforcement of a complaint of the failure of a subcontractor on that public works project to pay
workers the general prevailing rate of per diem wages. If the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement
determines that employees of a subcontractor were not paid the general prevailing rate of per diem
wages and if SANDAG did not retain sufficient money under the Contract to pay those employees the
balance of wages owed under the general prevailing rate of per diem wages, Contractor shall withhold an
amount of moneys due the subcontractor sufficient to pay those employees the general prevailing rate of
per diem wages if requested by the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement. Contractor shall pay any
money retained from and owed to a subcontractor upon receipt of notification by the Division of Labor
Standards Enforcement that the wage complaint has been resolved. If notice of the resolution of the wage
complaint has not been received by the Contractor within 180 days of the filing of a valid notice of
completion or acceptance of the public works project, whichever occurs later, Contractor shall pay all
moneys retained from the subcontractor to SANDAG. These moneys shall be retained by SANDAG
pending the final decision of an enforcement action.
Pursuant to the requirements in Labor Code §1773, SANDAG has obtained the general prevailing rate of
wages (which rate includes employer payments for health and welfare, pension, vacation, travel time and
subsistence pay as provided for in Labor Code §1773.1, apprenticeship or other training programs
authorized by Labor Code §3093, and similar purposes) applicable to the work to be done, for straight
time, overtime, Saturday, Sunday and holiday work. The holiday wage rate listed shall be applicable to all
holidays recognized in the collective bargaining agreement of the particular craft, classification or type of
workmen concerned.
The general prevailing wage rates and any applicable changes to these wage rates are available at the
Labor Compliance Office at the offices of the District Director of Transportation for the district of Caltrans
in which the work is situated or at the California Department of Industrial Relations’ website at:
http://www.dir.ca.gov.
Page 68 of 307
23
The wage rates determined by the Director of Industrial Relations for the project refer to expiration dates.
Prevailing wage determinations with a single asterisk after the expiration date are in effect on the date of
advertisement for Bids and are good for the life of the Contract. Prevailing wage determinations with
double asterisks after the expiration date indicate that the wage rate to be paid for work performed after
this date has been determined. If work is to extend past this date, the new rate shall be paid and
incorporated in the Contract. The Contractor shall contact the Department of Industrial Relations as
indicated in the wage rate determinations to obtain predetermined wage changes.
Pursuant to §1773.2 of the Labor Code, general prevailing wage rates shall be posted by the Contractor
at a prominent place at the site of the Work.
Changes in general prevailing wage determinations that conform to Labor Code §1773.6 and Title 8
California Code of Regulations §16204 shall apply to the Project when issued by the Director of Industrial
Relations at least ten (10) days prior to the date of the Notice to Contractors for the Project.
Pursuant to Labor Code §1720.9, “public works” shall include the hauling and delivery of ready-mixed
concrete to carry out a public works contract for SANDAG.
7 1.01A(2)(A) TRAVEL AND SUBSISTENCE PAYMENTS
Contractor shall make travel and subsistence payments to each workman, needed to execute the Work,
in conformance with the requirements in Labor Code Section 1773.1.
7 1.01A(3)(A) PAYROLL RECORDS – LABOR CODE REQUIREMENTS
Attention is directed to the requirements in Labor Code §1776, a portion of which is quoted below.
Regulations implementing Labor Code §1776 are located in §§16200 et seq. of Title 8, California Code of
Regulations.
“(a) Each contractor and subcontractor shall keep accurate payroll records, showing the name,
address, last 4 digits of social security number, work classification, straight time and overtime hours
worked each day and week, and the actual per diem wages paid to each journeyman, apprentice, worker,
or other employee employed by him or her in connection with the public work. Each payroll record shall
contain or be verified by a written declaration that it is made under penalty of perjury, stating both of the
following:
(1) The information contained in the payroll record is true and correct.
(2) The employer has complied with the requirements of Sections 1720.9, 1771, 1811, and 1815 of
the Labor Code for any work performed by its employees on the public works project.
(b) The payroll records enumerated under subdivision (a) shall be certified and shall be available for
inspection at all reasonable hours at the principal office of the contractor on the following basis:
(1) A certified copy of an employee’s payroll record shall be made available for inspection or
furnished to the employee or their authorized representative on request.
(2) A certified copy of all payroll records enumerated in subdivision (a) shall be made available for
inspection or furnished upon request to a representative of the body awarding the contract, the Division of
Labor Standards Enforcement, and the Division of Apprenticeship Standards of the Department of
Industrial Relations.
(3) A certified copy of all payroll records enumerated in subdivision (a) shall be made available upon
request by the public for inspection or for copies thereof. However, a request by the public shall be made
through either the body awarding the contract, the Division of Apprenticeship Standards, or the Division of
Page 69 of 307
24
Labor Standards Enforcement. If the requested payroll records have not been provided pursuant to
paragraph (2), the requesting party shall, prior to being provided the records, reimburse the costs of
preparation by the contractor, subcontractors, and the entity through which the request was made. The

Enforcement or shall contain the same information as the forms provided by the division.
(d) A contractor or subcontractor shall file a certified copy of the records enumerated in subdivision
(a) with the entity that requested the records within 10 days after receipt of a written request.
(e) Any copy of records made available for inspection as copies and furnished upon request to the
public or any public agency by the awarding body, the Division of Apprenticeship Standards, or the
Division of Labor Standards Enforcement shall be marked or obliterated in a manner so as to prevent
disclosure of an individual’s name, address and social security number. The name and address of the
contractor awarded the contract or the subcontractor performing the contract shall not be marked or
obliterated.

political subdivision on whose behalf the contract is made or awarded, forfeit one hundred dollars ($100)
for each calendar day, or portion thereof, for each worker, until strict compliance is effectuated. Upon the
request of the Division of Apprenticeship Standards or the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement,
these penalties shall be withheld from progress payments then due. A contractor is not subject to a
penalty assessment pursuant to this section due to the failure of a subcontractor to comply with this

social security number must be entered on all payrolls. The payroll shall be accompanied by a “Statement
of Compliance” signed by the employer or the employer’s agent indicating that the payrolls are correct
and complete and that the wage rates contained therein are not less than those required by the Contract.
The “Statement of Compliance” shall be on forms furnished by SANDAG or on any form with identical
wording. The Contractor shall be responsible to ensure submission of subcontractor payrolls in the LCMS
and the Department of Industrial Relations (DIR) eCPR systems. In addition, the contractor is responsible
for maintaining physical copies of all (prime/subcontractor) payrolls for DIR auditing purposes.

The Contractor shall also maintain its records in conformance with the following:
A. At the preconstruction meeting, the Contractor will be provided with all necessary forms from the
SANDAG current labor compliance consultant. The Contractor shall submit weekly a copy of all payrolls
to SANDAG or to the labor compliance consultant, depending on the project. The copy shall be
accompanied by a statement signed by the employer or its agent indicating that the payrolls are correct
and complete, that the wage rates contained therein are not less than those determined by the Secretary

during working hours on the job.
B. Contractor, and each subcontractor having contracts exceeding $10,000, shall submit monthly a
report of manpower utilization of the total work force for all work performed during the month. If Contractor
or subcontractor does not perform work on the project during the month, a negative report shall be
submitted. The reports shall be submitted by the 15th of the following month. Contractor shall be
responsible for submission of reports of all subcontractors. If any required manpower utilization report is
not received by the designated due date, SANDAG will retain 10 percent (10%) of the estimated value of
the work during the month from the next monthly estimate, except that such retentions shall not exceed
$10,000, nor be less than $1,000. Retentions for failure to submit manpower utilization reports will be
additional to all other retentions provided for in this Contract. Retentions for failure to submit manpower
utilization reports will be released for payment on the monthly estimate for partial payments next following
the date that all the delinquent reports for which the retention was made are submitted
C. The Contractor shall make its records available and is responsible for making its subcontractors’
records available for inspection by authorized representatives of SANDAG or the state or federal

A. Contractor and its subcontractors are required to meet the apprenticeship ratio of one hour of
apprentice work for every five hours of journeyman work per Title 8 California Code of Regulations,
§230.1 for its public works projects exceeding $30,000, with the exception of design build projects, which
have a higher ratio requirement that graduates from 20% to 60% between 2016 and 2020. California
Labor Code §1777.5 requires all public works contractors and subcontractors to submit contract award
information to applicable apprenticeship programs that can supply apprentices to the site of the public
work, employ registered apprentices, and make training fund contributions to approved apprenticeship
programs.
B. Contractor and its subcontractors shall comply with §§1777.5, 1777.6, and 1777.7 of the
California Labor Code and Title 8, California Code of Regulations §200 et seq. To ensure compliance and
complete understanding of the law regarding apprentices, and specifically the required ratio thereunder,
each contractor or subcontractor should, where some question exists, contact the Division of
Page 71 of 307
26
Apprenticeship Standards, or one of its branch offices prior to commencement of work on this Contract.
Responsibility for compliance with this Section lies with Contractor.
C. SANDAG encourages the employment and training of apprentices on public works contracts as
may be permitted under local apprenticeship standards.
7 1.01A(7) WORKERS' COMPENSATION
Pursuant to the requirements in Labor Code §1860, the Contractor will be required to secure the payment
of workers’ compensation to the Contractor’s employees in conformance with the requirements in Labor
Code §3700.
7 1.01A(8) RECOVERY OF PENALTIES AND FORFEITURES
Attention is directed to Labor Code §§1730 to 1742, which calls for the Labor Commissioner to issue a
civil wage and penalty assessment to Contractor or subcontractor or both if the Labor Commissioner
determines after investigation that there has been a violation of the laws regulating public works
contracts. Contractor or subcontractor may obtain review of a civil wage and penalty assessment by
transmitting a written request for a hearing to the office of the Labor Commissioner that appears on the
assessment within 60 days after service of the assessment.
7 1.01B CONTRACTOR’S LICENSING LAWS
Attention is directed to the provisions of Chapter 9 of Division 3 of the Business and Professions Code
(commencing with §7000) concerning the licensing of contractors.
All Contractors and subcontractors shall be licensed in accordance with the laws and regulations of the
State of California and with the requirements of this Contract and any Contractor or subcontractor not so
licensed is subject to the penalties imposed by those laws. Contractor must also provide the license
number for any subcontractor completing work in excess of one half of one percent of the total bid.

AGENDA REPORT
Department: Fire Department
Prepared by: Walter Amedee, Emergency Manager
Meeting Date: Tuesday, April 1, 2025
Approved by: Benjamin A. Martinez, City Manager
SUBJECT:
First Amendment of On Duty Health Agreement
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt the Resolution Entitled, “Resolution of the City Council of the City of National City,
California, Ratifying the Expenditure of $49,398 for Services Provided by On Duty Health, LLC, in
Fiscal Year 2024 and Approving and Authorizing the Mayor to Execute the First Amendment to
the Agreement by and Between the City of National City and On Duty Health, LLC”.
BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION:
Not Applicable.
EXPLANATION:
The City of National City previously entered into an agreement with On Duty Health, LLC, on July
1, 2022, for annual firefighter physical and fitness assessments. On Duty Health, LLC, is a
specialized on-site occupational health provider with expertise in firefighter health. The City
engaged the contractor to conduct annual firefighter physical and fitness assessments to ensure
compliance with industry standards and maintain the health and safety of its fire personnel.
The original agreement was structured with an initial term from July 1, 2022, through June 30,
2027, with a not-to-exceed amount of $41,115.00 with an option to extend the term for three (3)
one-year term extensions. In FY 2024, the city was invoiced $49,398.00 by On Duty Health, LLC
for annual firefighter physical and fitness assessments, which exceeded the not -to-exceed
amount of $41,115.00 by $8,283.00. The City Council is requested to ratify the FY 2024
expenditure, which has already been processed by the City.
The leading contributors to firefighter mortality include heart disease, suicide, and job-related
cancer. The contractor has proposed addressing these issues proactively, particularly job-related
cancer, by incorporating a cancer screening into the annual assessments at an additional cost of
$739.00 per firefighter.
Due to the increased scope of services, additional funding is required to continue providing these
essential assessments, including the newly added cancer screenings. The proposed amendment
increases the not-to-exceed amount by $80,000 for a new total not-to-exceed amount of
$121,115.00. This increase accounts for the inclusion of cancer screenings within the firefighter
physical and fitness assessments as well as providing additional funding for additional firefighter
annual exams. Additionally, the intent of the original agreement was for the not-to-exceed amount
to be an annual cost. Therefore, the amendment proposes to address this by amending the total
not-to-exceed amount to an annual not-to-exceed amount of $121,115.00.
Page 90 of 307
All other terms and conditions of the original agreement remain unchanged. This amendment
ensures that firefighter health assessments can continue uninterrupted while also addressing
critical health risks through enhanced screening measures.
Staff recommends that the City Council approve the First Amendment to the Agreement with On
Duty Health, LLC, increasing the not-to-exceed amount by $80,000 for a new total annual not-to-
exceed amount of $121,115.00 to continue firefighter physical and fitness assessments and
include cancer screenings.
FINANCIAL STATEMENT:
If approved the First Amendment to the Agreement will increase the original not-to-exceed amount
of $41,115 to an annual not-to-exceed amount of $121,115.00. Actual yearly expenditures will
depend upon the assessments performed and the number of individuals undergoing the
assessments. Expenditures will be recorded in General Fund account no. 100-70-22-22100-
7205- Medical Services (Fire Department).

AGENDA REPORT
Department: Engineering and Public Works
Prepared by: Luca Zappiello, Associate Engineer - Civil
Meeting Date: Tuesday, April 1, 2025
Approved by: Benjamin A. Martinez, City Manager
SUBJECT:
Installation of a Blue Curb Disabled Persons Parking Space with Signage in Front of the
Residence Located at 1721 Wilson Avenue.
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution entitled, “Resolution of the City Council of the City of National City, California,
Authorizing the Installation of a Blue Curb Disabled Persons Parking Space with Signage in Front
of the Residence at 1721 Wilson Avenue.”
BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION:
At their meeting on February 12, 2025, the Traffic Safety Committee unanimously approved the
installation of a blue curb disabled persons parking space with signage in front of the residence
located at 1721 Wilson Avenue.
EXPLANATION:
Mr. Ramon Pinedo, resident of 1721 Wilson Avenue, has requested a blue curb disabled persons
parking space in front of his residence. The resident possesses a valid disabled person placard
from the California Department of Motor Vehicles.
Mrs. Maria Pinedo, daughter of Mr. Pinedo, stated that it is difficult for her father to access their
home from the driveway located at the back of the house. He must open a manual gate, walk over
100 feet along the walkway, and then climb stairs to enter the house. Mrs. Pinedo mentioned that
a designated blue curb parking space for disabled persons in front of the house would provide
easier access for her father. Additionally, she noted that the auto repair shop adjacent to their
property occupies most of the on-street parking, making it challenging for her father to find parking
near the house.
Staff visited the site and confirmed that Mr. Pinedo has a driveway located behind his house. With
Mrs. Maria Pinedo permission and supervision, staff measured the driveway. The driveway
features a manual gate that is approximately 10 feet wide, and it measures about 20 feet long by
23 feet wide. The slope of the driveway is negligible. Based on these measurements, the driveway
can accommodate a vehicle with a disabled driver or passenger. Additionally, the slope of Wilson
Avenue in front of the residence is less than 2%.
The City of National City has amended chapter 11.32.225 of the National City Municipal Code
which is used to evaluate requests for disabled persons parking spaces. The City’s Disabled
persons parking zone requirements for Special Hardship Cases are as follows:
1. Applicant (or guardian) must be in possession of valid license plates or placard for
“disabled persons” or “disabled veterans”. This condition is met.
Page 128 of 307
2. The proposed disabled parking space must be in front (or side if on a corner lot) of the
applicant’s (or guardian’s) place of residence. This condition is met.
3. The residence must not have useable off-street parking available or an off-street space
available that may be converted into disabled parking. This condition is not met.
This item was presented to the Traffic Safety Committee (TSC) on February 12, 2025. Mrs. Maria
Pinedo attended the meeting and spoke in support of establishing a blue curb disabled persons
parking space. Initially, staff recommended denying the request, since the large driveway behind
the house was sufficient to accommodate parking for a disabled person. During the meeting, Mrs.
Pinedo explained that the gate providing access to their house is old and narrow, making it difficult
to open, and she has no plans to replace it. She shared that years ago, her father used the back
driveway to park their car, but his age now makes it challenging to do so. She also mentioned
that her father has difficulty walking long distances. This makes it challenging for him to g et from
the back driveway to the front door, as he has to open a manual gate, walk over 100 feet along
the walkway, and then climb stairs to enter the house. She highlighted their financial hardship,
which prevents her from updating the gate, as well as the physical hardship due to her father's
impaired mobility.
Based on Mrs. Pinedo’s testimony, the TSC unanimously voted to approve the installation of a
blue curb disabled persons parking space with sign in front of the residence at 1721 Wilson
Avenue. Staff concurred with the TSC's recommendation.
The applicant was informed that handicap parking spaces do not constitute “personal reserved
parking” and that any person with valid “disabled persons” license plates or placards may park in
handicap spaces.
If approved by City Council, all work will be performed by City Public Works.
FINANCIAL STATEMENT:
The estimated cost to install the disabled persons parking space is approximately $300. Funding
is available within the Public Works Streets Division maintenance and operations budget.

ITEM TITLE: REQUEST FOR INSTALLATION OF A BLUE CURB DISABLED
PERSONS PARKING SPACE WITH SIGN IN FRONT OF THE
RESIDENCE AT 1721 WILSON AVENUE
PREPARED BY: Luca Zappiello, Associate Engineer - Civil
DISCUSSION:
Mr. Ramon Pinedo, resident of 1721 Wilson Avenue, has requested a blue curb disabled

ITEM NO. 2025-01

Page 132 of 307
It shall be noted that disabled persons parking spaces do not constitute “personal reserved
parking” and that any person with valid “disabled persons” license plates or placards may
park in handicap spaces.
Please see attached exhibit for the location of existing blue curb disabled persons parking
spaces within a 4-block radius from the proposed location for this request.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Since only two of the three conditions of the City’s Disabled persons parking zone
requirements for Special Hardship Cases are met, staff does not recommend the
installation of a blue curb disabled persons parking space with sign in front of the residence
at 1721 Wilson Avenue.

SPACE WITH SIGNAGE IN FRONT OF THE RESIDENCE AT 1721 WILSON AVENUE.
WHEREAS, Mr. Ramon Pinedo, resident of 1721 Wilson Avenue, has requested a blue
curb disabled persons parking space in front of his residence; and
WHEREAS, the resident possesses a valid disabled person placard from the California
Department of Motor Vehicles; and
WHEREAS, Mrs. Maria Pinedo, daughter of Mr. Pinedo, stated that they are requesting
the accommodation since it is difficult for her father to access their home from the driveway
located at the back of the house and it is difficult for her father to find parking in front of his
residence; and
WHEREAS, staff visited the site and observed that Mr. Pinedo’s residence has a driveway
located behind the house; and
WHEREAS, staff took measurements and confirmed the driveway meets accessibility
standards for disabled persons parking; and
WHEREAS, this item was presented to the Traffic Safety Committee on February 12,
2025; and
WHEREAS, staff sent notices to area residents inviting them to the Traffic Safety

WHEREAS, Mrs. Pinedo was in attendance to speak in support of the blue curb disabled

including explanation from Mrs. Pinedo that the gate providing access to their house is old and
narrow, making it difficult to open, and is cost-prohibitive for her to replace, and that her father
has challenges using the back driveway to park because he has difficulty walking long distances
– the Traffic Safety Committee voted to approve the installation of a blue curb disabled persons
parking space with signage in front of the residence at 1721 Wilson Avenue, since all three
conditions of the Special Hardship Cases section of National City Municipal Code section
11.32.225(C), Disabled persons parking zone, are met.

Meeting Date: Tuesday, April 1, 2025
Approved by: Benjamin A. Martinez, City Manager
SUBJECT:
Installation of a Blue Curb Disabled Persons Parking Space in Front of the Residence Located at
2028 Wilson Avenue
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution entitled, “Resolution of the City Council of the City of National City, California,
Authorizing the Installation of a Blue Curb Disabled Persons Parking Space in Front of the
Residence Located at 2028 Wilson Avenue.”
BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION:
At their meeting on February 12, 2025, the Traffic Safety Committee unanimously approved staff’s
recommendation for the installation of a blue curb disabled persons parking space in front of the
residence located at 2028 Wilson Avenue.
EXPLANATION:
Mr. Hugo Gallegos and Ms. Gabriela Sarabia, residents of 2028 Wilson Avenue, have requested
a secondary blue curb disabled persons parking space in front of their house. The residents
possess valid disabled person’s placards from the California Department of Motor Vehicles.
Staff visited the site and verified that the aforementioned residence does not have an accessible
driveway or garage to accommodate a vehicle with a disabled driver or passenger. The length of
unrestricted curbside parking available in front of the applicants’ house is approximately 40 feet.
Currently, there are five existing on-street disabled persons parking spaces provided in the
immediate vicinity of the applicant: 1) 2025 Wilson Avenue (approved per TSC Item 2016-14), 2)
2121 Wilson Avenue (approved per TSC Item 2015-24), 3) 1812 Wilson Avenue (approved per
TSC Item 2013-05), and 4) 1816 Harding Ave, next to St. Anthony of Padua Catholic Church,
where there are two diagonal blue curb disabled persons parking spaces. Per the City Council
Disabled Persons Parking Policy, since the total number of on-street disabled persons parking
spaces (including the proposed disabled persons parking space in front of 2028 Wilson Avenue)
would not exceed 4% of the total number of available on-street parking spaces in the area, Mr.
Gallego’s and Ms. Sarabia’s request is eligible for further consideration.
Chapter 11.32.225 of the National City Municipal Code is used to evaluate requests for disabled
persons parking spaces. The City’s Disabled persons parking zone requirements for Special
Hardship Cases are as follows:
1. Applicant (or guardian) must be in possession of valid license plates or placard for
“disabled persons” or “disabled veterans”. This condition is met.
Page 143 of 307
2. The proposed disabled parking space must be in front (or side if on a corner lot) of
the applicant’s (or guardian’s) place of residence. This condition is met.
3. The residence must not have useable off-street parking available or an off-street
space available that may be converted into disabled parking. This condition is met.
This item was presented to the Traffic Safety Committee on February 12, 2025. Staff sent a
notice to the residents inviting them to the Traffic Safety Committee Meeting and/or to contact
staff with any questions. Mr. Hugo Gallegos and Ms. Gabriela Sarabia were not in attendance to
speak on this item.
Staff presented the results of the site evaluation to the Traffic Safety Committee. After discussion,
the Traffic Safety Committee voted to approve staff’s recommendation to install a blue curb
disabled persons parking space, since all three conditions of the Special Hardship Cases section
of the National City Municipal Code Chapter 11.32.225(C), disabled persons parking zone, are
met.
The applicant for this request was informed that disabled persons parking spaces do not
constitute “personal reserved parking” and that any person with valid “disabled persons” license
plates or placards may park in disabled persons parking spaces.
If approved by the City Council, all work will be performed by City Public Works staff.
FINANCIAL STATEMENT:
The estimated cost to install the disabled persons parking space is approximately $300. Funding
is available within the Public Works Streets Division maintenance and operations budget.

ITEM TITLE: REQUEST FOR INSTALLATION OF A SECOND BLUE CURB DISABLED
PERSONS PARKING SPACE IN FRONT OF THE RESIDENCE AT 2028
WILSON AVENUE
PREPARED BY: Carlos Perdomo, Engineering Technician – Civil
Engineering & Public Works Department
DISCUSSION:
Mr. Hugo Gallegos and Ms. Gabriela Sarabia, residents of 2028 Wilson Avenue, have requested
a secondary blue curb handicap parking space in front of their house. The residents possess
valid disabled person’s placards from the California Department of Motor Vehicles.
Staff visited the site and verified that the aforementioned residence does not have an accessible
driveway or garage to accommodate a vehicle with a disabled driver or passenger. The length
of unrestricted curbside parking available in front of the applicants’ house is approximately 40
feet.
Currently, there are five existing on-street handicap parking spaces provided in the immediate
vicinity of the area: 1) 2025 Wilson Avenue (approved per TSC Item 2016-14), 2) 2121 Wilson
Avenue (approved per TSC Item 2015-24), 3) 1812 Wilson Avenue (approved per TSC Item 2013-
05), 4) 1816 Harding Ave, next to St. Anthony of Padua Catholic Church, there are two diagonal
blue curb handicap parking spaces. Per the City Council Disabled Persons Parking Policy, since
the total number of on-street handicap parking spaces (including the proposed handicap parking
space in front of 2028 Wilson Avenue) would not exceed 4% of the total number of available on-
street parking spaces in the area, Mr. Gallego’s and Ms. Sarabia’s request is eligible for further
consideration.
Chapter 11.32.225 of the National City Municipal Code is used to evaluate requests for disabled
persons parking spaces. The City’s Disabled persons parking zone requirements for Special
Hardship Cases are as follows:
1. Applicant (or guardian) must be in possession of valid license plates or placard for
“disabled persons” or “disabled veterans”. This condition is met.
2. The proposed disabled parking space must be in front (or side if on a corner lot) of the
applicant’s (or guardian’s) place of residence. This condition is met.
3. The residence must not have useable off-street parking available or an off-street space
available that may be converted into disabled parking. This condition is met.
It shall be noted that disabled persons parking spaces do not constitute “personal reserved
parking” and that any person with valid “disabled persons” license plates or placards may park
in handicap spaces.

Public Housing Agency Plan, and Updated Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program
Administrative Plan.
RECOMMENDATION:
Conduct the Public Hearing and Adopt a Resolution Entitled, “Resolution of the Community
Development Commission-Housing Authority of the City of National City, California, Approving
the Streamlined Annual Public Housing Agency Plan for Fiscal Year 2025-2026 and the 2025-
2029 Five-Year Public Housing Agency Plan for Submission to the U.S. Department of Housing
and Urban Development; and Adopting an Updated Housing Choice Voucher Administrative
Plan.”
BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION:
Not Applicable.
EXPLANATION:
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”), in response to the Quality
Housing and Work Responsibility Act of 1998, requires housing authorities to prepare a Section
8 Housing Choice Voucher Program Public Housing Agency (“PHA”) Plan. The Public Housing
Agency Plan concept is based on the consolidated planning process used for HUD's community
development programs.
Like the Consolidated Plan required by HUD for jurisdictions using federal funds for housing and
community development, the PHA Plan provides a planning mechanism by which the National
City Housing Authority (Housing Authority”) Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher and Emergency
Housing Voucher Programs can examine its long-range needs and short-term needs. Specifically,
the PHA Plan identifies the needs of the families that it serves and develops both long-term
strategies through a Five-Year PHA Plan and short-term strategies to manage operational and
participant concerns, program needs and services through a Streamlined Annual PHA Plan.
The Housing Authority is also updating its Housing Choice Voucher Program Administrative Plan
(“Administrative Plan”). The Administrative Plan is set forth to define the PHA's local policies for
operation of the rental housing voucher programs in accordance with federal laws and regulations.
All issues related to the HCV program not addressed in the document are governed by federal
regulations, HUD handbooks and guidebooks, notices, and other applicable law. The draft
Housing Choice Voucher Administrative Plan is linked here: HCV Administrative Plan.

B.4) Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) Goals Attachment
Background
On January 5, 2006, President Bush signed the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA)
into law as Public Law 109-162. The most recent, Congress passed the Violence
Against Woman Reauthorization Act of 2022 (VAWA 2022), which went into effect
October 1, 2022. In response to VAWA, the National City Housing Authority (NCHA)
has taken the following steps:
NCHA partners with the National City Collaborative (NCC) to provide services to
individuals and families caught in domestic violence. These services include: 24-hour
crisis line, legal support, transitional housing program referrals, clinical counseling,
support groups, domestic violence treatment program for people who abuse, youth
education and prevention programs, and volunteer training.
NCHA refers child or adult victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual
assault, stalking, or human trafficking to NCC or other supportive services for assistance.
NCHA has revised many of its policies and procedures so as to enable child or adult
victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, stalking or human
trafficking to obtain or maintain housing.
NCC provides numerous domestic violence prevention and intervention programs and
classes. Clients are referred when there is a belief that they may be victims of domestic
violence, or potential victims.
VAWA Components in the Housing Choice Voucher Administrative Plan
VAWA policies are incorporated throughout the Housing Choice Voucher Administrative
Plan. Those policies are summarized below:
NCHA may deny assistance to applicants if any household member is currently engaged
in, or has engaged in violent criminal activity or criminal activity that may threaten the
health, safety, or right to peaceful enjoyment of the premises by other residents or
persons residing in the immediate vicinity during the past five years. However, no
applicant who has been a victim of domestic violence, dating violence, stalking, or
human trafficking will be denied assistance if they are otherwise qualified for the
program.
NCHA may terminate a participant family's assistance if any household member has
violated the family's obligation not to engage in any violent criminal activity or criminal
activity that may threaten the health, safety or right to peaceful enjoyment of the
premises by other residents or persons residing in the immediate vicinity during
participation in the HCV Program.
Page 209 of 307
Continued…. Annual PHA Plan
5
However, no Applicant who has been a victim of domestic violence, dating violence or
stalking will have their assistance terminated if they are otherwise qualified for the
program.
Any incident or incidents of actual or threatened domestic violence, dating violence,
stalking, or human trafficking will not be construed as a serious or repeated violation of
the lease by the victim or threatened victim of that violence, and shall not be good
cause for terminating the assistance, tenancy or occupancy rights of the victim.
NCHA may terminate the assistance of an individual family member to remove a
lawful occupant or tenant who engages in criminal acts or threatened acts of
violence, stalking, or human trafficking to family members or others without terminating
the assistance or evicting victimized lawful occupants.
There is no limitation on the ability of the NCHA to terminate assistance for other
good cause unrelated to the incident or incidents of domestic violence, dating
violence, stalking, or human trafficking, other than the victim may not be subject to a
"more demanding standard" than non-victims. NCHA will require certification by the
victim of the victim status on such forms as the NCHA and/or HUD shall prescribe or
approve.
When a family on the waiting list breaks up into two otherwise eligible families, only
one of the new families may retain the original application date.
If the family breaks up into two otherwise eligible families while receiving assistance,
only one of the new families will continue to be assisted.
Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) Policy
Purpose and Applicability
The purpose of this policy is to implement the applicable provisions of the violence
against women and department of justice reauthorization act of 2022 and more
generally to set forth the NCHA's policies and procedures regarding domestic
violence, dating violence, stalking, and human trafficking, as hereafter defined.
The policy is gender-neutral, and its protections are available to males who are
victims of domestic violence, dating violence, stalking, or human trafficking as well as
female victims of such violence.
Goals and Objectives
This policy and the following goals and objectives:
Maintaining compliance with all applicable legal requirements imposed by VAWA;
Page 210 of 307
Continued…. Annual PHA Plan
6
Ensuring the physical safety of victims of actual or threatened domestic violence, dating
violence, stalking or human trafficking who are assisted by NCHA; Providing and
maintaining housing opportunities for victims of domestic violence, dating violence,
stalking, or human trafficking; Creating and maintaining collaborative arrangements
between NCHA, law enforcement authorities, victim service providers, and others to
promote the safety and well-being of victims of actual and threatened domestic
violence, dating violence, stalking, and human trafficking, who are assisted by NCHA;
and taking appropriate action in response to an incident or incidents of domestic
violence, dating violence, or stalking, affecting individuals assisted by NCHA.
Other NCHA Policies and Procedures
This Policy shall be referenced in and incorporated in and made a part of NCHA's
Admission and Continued Occupancy Policy. To the extent any provision of this policy
shall vary or contradict any previously adopted policy or procedure of NCHA, the
provisions of this Policy shall prevail.
Definitions
As used in this Policy:
Domestic Violence - The term "domestic violence" includes felony or misdemeanor
crimes of violence committed by a current or former spouse of the victim, by a person
with whom the victim shares a child in common, by a person who is cohabiting with
or has cohabited with the victim as a spouse, by a person similarly situated to a
spouse of the victim under the domestic or family violence laws of the jurisdiction
receiving grant monies, or by any other person against an adult or youth victim who is
protected from that person's acts under the domestic or family violence laws of the
jurisdiction.
Dating Violence - means violence committed by a person- who is or has been in a
social relationship of a romantic or intimate nature with the victim; and where the
existence of such a relationship shall be determined based on a consideration of the
following factors: the length of the relationship, the type of relationship, the frequency of
interaction between the persons involved in the relationship.
Stalking - means to follow, pursue, or repeatedly commit acts with the intent to kill,
injure, harass, or intimidate another person; and (ii) to place under surveillance with the
intent to kill, injure, harass or intimidate another person; and in the course of, or as a
result of, such following, pursuit, surveillance, or repeatedly committed acts, to place
a person in reasonable fear of death of, or serious bodily injury to, or to cause
substantial emotional harm to that person; a member of the immediate family of that
person; or the spouse or intimate partner of that person.
Immediate Family Member - means, with respect to a person - a spouse, parent, brother,
sister or child of that person, or an individual to whom that person stands in loco
Page 211 of 307
Continued…. Annual PHA Plan
7
parentis; or any other person living in the household of that person and related to that
person by blood or marriage.
Perpetrator -means person who commits an act of domestic violence, dating violence,
stalking, or human trafficking against a victim.
Admissions and Screening
Non-Denial of Assistance. NCHA will not deny admission to public housing to any
person because that person is or has been a victim of domestic violence, dating
violence, stalking, or human trafficking, provided that such person is otherwise qualified
for such admission.
Termination of Tenancy o r Assistance
VAWA Protections. Under VAWA, public housing residents have the following
specifications, which will be observed by NCHA. An incident or incidents of actual or
threatened domestic violence, dating violence, stalking, or human trafficking will not be
considered to be a "serious or repeated" violation of the lease by the victim or
threatened victim of that violence and will not be good cause for terminating the tenancy
or occupancy rights of or assistance to the victim of that violence.
In additions to the foregoing, tenancy or assistance will not be terminated by NCHA as
a result of criminal activity, if that criminal activity is directly related to domestic
violence, dating violence or stalking engaged in by a member of the assisted
household, a guest or another person under the tenant's control, and the tenant or an
immediate family member is the victim or threatened victim of this criminal activity.
However, the protection against termination of tenancy or assistance described in this
paragraph is subject to the following limitations:
Nothing contained in this paragraph shall limit any otherwise available authority of
NCHA or to terminate tenancy, evict, or to terminate assistance, as the case may be,
for any violation of a lease or program requirement not premised on the act or acts of
domestic violence, dating violence, stalking, or human trafficking in question against the
tenant or a member of the tenant's household.
However, in taking any such action, the NCHA may apply a more demanding
standard to the victim of domestic violence, dating violence, stalking, or human
trafficking than that applied to other tenants.
Nothing contained in this paragraph shall be construed to limit the authority of NCHA to
evict or terminate from assistance any tenant or lawful applicant if the NCHA can
demonstrate an actual and imminent threat to other tenants or to those employed at
or providing service to the property, if the tenant is not evicted or terminated from
assistance.
Page 212 of 307
Continued…. Annual PHA Plan

Removal of Perpetrator.
Further, notwithstanding anything in paragraph Vl.A.2. or Federal, State or local law to
the contrary, HACNC, as the case may be, may bifurcate a lease, or remove a
household member from a lease, without regard to whether a household member is a
signatory to a lease, in order to evict, remove, terminate occupancy rights, or terminate
assistance to any individual who is a tenant or lawful occupant and who engages in acts
of physical violence against family members or others. Such action against the
perpetrator of such physical violence may be taken without evicting, removing,
terminating assistance to, or otherwise penalizing the victim of such violence who is
also the tenant or a lawful occupant. Such eviction, removal, termination of occupancy
rights, or termination of assistance shall be effected in accordance with the
procedures prescribed by law applicable to terminations of tenancy and evictions by
NCHA.
Verification of Domestic Violence, Dating Violence or Stalking
Requirement for Verification. The law allows, but does not require, NCHA to verify
that an incident or incidents of actual or threatened domestic violence, dating
violence, or stalking claimed by a tenant or other lawful occupant is bona fide and meets
the requirements of the applicable definitions set forth in this policy. NCHA shall
require verification in all cases where an individual claims protection against an action
involving such individual proposed to be taken by NCHA. Verification of a claimed
incident or incidents of actual or threatened domestic violence, dating violence or
stalking may be accomplished in one of the following three ways:
HUD-approved form - by providing the NCHA a written certification, on a form
approved by U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), that the
individual is a victim of domestic violence, dating violence or stalking that the incident
or incidents in question must be described in reasonable detail as required in the HUD
approved form, and the completed certification must include the name of the
perpetrator.
Other documentation - by providing to NCHA documentation signed by an employee,
agent, or volunteer of a victim service provider, an attorney, or a medical professional,
from whom the victim has sought assistance in addressing the domestic violence,
dating violence, stalking, or human trafficking, or the effects of the abuse, described in
such documentation. The professional providing the documentation must sign and
attest under penalty of perjury (28 U.S.C. 1746) to the professional's belief that the
incident or incidents in question are bona fide incidents of abuse meeting the
requirements of the applicable definition(s) set forth in this policy. The victim of the
incident or incidents of domestic violence, dating violence, stalking, or human trafficking
described in the documentation must also sign and attest to the documentation under
penalty of perjury.
Police or court record - by providing to NCHA a Federal, State, tribal, territorial, or
Page 213 of 307
Continued…. Annual PHA Plan
9
local police or court record describing the incident or incidents in question.
Time allowed to provide verification/failure to provide. An individual who claims
protection against adverse action based on an incident or incidents of actual or
threatened domestic violence, dating violence, stalking, or human trafficking, and who is
requested by NCHA, to provide verification, must provide such verification within 14
business days (i.e., calendar days, excluding Saturdays, Sundays, and federally-
recognized holidays) after receipt of the request for verification. Failure to provide
verification, in proper form within such time will result in loss of protection under
VAWA and this policy against a proposed adverse action.
Waiver of verification requirement.
The Executive Director of NCHA may with respect to any specific case, waive the above-
stated requirements for verification and provide the benefits of this policy based on the
victim's statement or other corroborating evidence. Such waiver may be granted in the
sole discretion of the Executive Director. Any such waiver must be in writing. Waiver in
a particular instance or instances shall not operate as precedent for, or create any
right to, waiver in any other case of cases, regardless of similarity in circumstances.
Confidentiality
Right of confidentiality. All Information (including the fact that an individual is a victim of
domestic violence, dating violence, stalking, or human trafficking) provided to NCHA in
connection with a verification required under section VII of this policy or provided in lieu
of such verification where a waiver of verification is granted, shall be retained by the
receiving party in confidence and shall neither be entered in any shared database nor
provided to any related entity, except where disclosure is: Requested or consented to
by the individual in writing, or required for use in a public housing eviction proceeding,
as permitted in VAWA, or otherwise required by applicable law
Notification of rights. All tenants of public housing shall be notified in writing
concerning their right to confidentiality and the limits on such rights to confidentiality.
Transfer to New Residence Application for transfer. “Emergency Transfer Plan for
Victims of Domestic Violence”. In situations that involve significant risk of violent harm
to an individual as a result of previous incidents or threats of domestic violence, dating
violence, stalking, or human trafficking, NCHA will, if an approved unit size is available
at a location that may reduce the risk of harm, approve transfer by a public housing
to a different unit in order to reduce the level of risk to the individual. A tenant who
requests transfer must attest in such application that the requested transfer is
necessary to protect the health or safety of the tenant or another member of the
household who is or was the victim of domestic violence, dating violence, stalking, or
human trafficking and who reasonably believes that the tenant or other household
member will be imminently threatened by harm from further violence if the individual
remains in the present dwelling unit.
Page 214 of 307
Continued…. Annual PHA Plan
10
Action on Applications. NCHA will act upon such an application promptly.
No right to transfer. NCHA will make every effort to accommodate requests for transfer
when suitable alternative vacant units are available and the circumstances warrant such
action.
Court Orders/Family Break-Up
Court Orders. It is NCHA's policy to honor orders entered by courts of competent
jurisdiction affecting individuals assisted by NCHA and their property. This includes
cooperating with law enforcement authorities to enforce civil protection orders issued
for the protection of victims and addressing the distribution of personal property
among household members in cases where a family breaks up.
Family Break-Up. Other NCHA policies regarding family break-up are contained in
NCHA’s Administrative Plan.
Notification
NCHA shall provide written notification to applicants, tenants, concerning the rights and
obligations created under VAWA relating to confidentiality, denial of assistance and,
termination of tenancy or assistance.
Relationship With Other Applicable Laws
Neither VAWA nor this Policy implementing it shall preempt or supersede any provision
of Federal, State or local law that provides greater protection than that provided
under VAWA for victims of domestic violence, dating violence, stalking, or human
trafficking.
Amendment
This policy may be amended from time to time by NCHA as approved by the NCHA
Board of Commissioners.
Definition of Substandard Deviation and Significant Change or Modification
Substandard deviation: The following actions would be considered a substantial
deviation from the 5-year plan:
• Change to the target population included in the adopted plan. Decisions to
change the process for accepting applications to the Housing Choice Voucher
Program.
• Decision to change Priority of Preference Criteria for the Housing Choice
Voucher Program.
Page 215 of 307
Continued…. Annual PHA Plan
11
It will not be considered a substantial deviation from the plan:
• To choose another course of action not specifically spelled out in the plan to
meet the established goals.
• To meet goals of the program to assist low-and moderate-income population in
a manner not discussed in the adopted plan.
• To increase or decrease the Payment Standard (PS) (within budget authority)
based on, (1) in the case of an increase to the PS, unforeseen increases in
rents or inability of tenants to rent units within the program rules or (2) in the
case of decreases to the PS, reductions in the budget authority awarded by
HUD.
• To make modifications to the Administrative Plan which improve the access to
the program by applicants and participants or clarification of new issues in
order to provide a consistent implementation of the rules.
• To incorporate new procedures brought about by new regulations or clarification
of regulations by HUD.
• To make changes to parts of the plan, which are found to be inconsistent with
regulations. To make changes required by statute or regulation that need to take
place before a consultative process can take place. Changes in the Standard
Operating Procedures that do not involve policy decisions.
Significant change or modification:
A significant change or modification is defined as discretionary changes in the plan or
policies of the housing authority that fundamental changes the mission, goals,
objectives or plans of the agency which require the formal approval of the Board of
Commissioners. Other similar circumstances will be treated as defined above. Those
items which are considered a substantial deviation would require Board Approval at a
Regular Meeting of the Housing Authority Board of Commissioners and submission to
HUD at the next annual submission, where a report will be given of policies changed
since the last submission of the Plan. Where feasible on discretionary issues, the
Housing Authority will make an effort to consult with the Resident Advisory Committee
prior to bringing the issue to the Board.
Small Area Fair Market Rent (SAMFR)
The Small Area Fair Market Rent (SAFMR) Final Rule was published on November 16,
2016 and became effective on January 17, 2017. Under the final rule, the use of Small
Area FMRs is required in the administration of the HCV Program for certain metropolitan
areas, including San Diego-Carlsbad, CA MSA, beginning on October 1, 2017.
Although HUD has suspended the implementation of the SAFMR, it was reinstated
effective January 1, 2018. The purpose of this rule is to establish a more effective
means for HCV tenants to move into areas of higher opportunity and lower poverty by
providing the tenants with a subsidy adequate to make such areas accessible and,
Page 216 of 307

consequently, help reduce the number of voucher families that reside in areas of higher
poverty concentration.

AGENDA REPORT
Department: Fire Department
Prepared by: Walter Amedee, Emergency Manager
Meeting Date: Tuesday, April 1, 2025
Approved by: Benjamin A. Martinez, City Manager
SUBJECT:
Introduction and First Reading of an Ordinance Amending Chapter 15.29 of the National City
Municipal Code Establishing a Fire Inspection Program
RECOMMENDATION:
Introduce the Ordinance by First Reading, Entitled, “An Ordinance of the City Council of the City
of National City, California, Amending Chapter 15.29 of the National City Municipal Code to
Establish an Annual and Biennial Fire Inspection Program as Well as a Self -Inspection Program
for Low-Risk Commercial Businesses.”
BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION:
Not Applicable.
EXPLANATION:
The National City Fire Department performs fire inspections under the direction of the Division
Chief/Fire Marshal. The Community Risk Reduction Division consists of one Division Chief/Fire
Marshal, one Deputy Fire Marshal, three Fire Inspectors, and one Administrative Secretary. Fire
inspections are critical for maintaining public safety by ensuring compliance with the California
Fire Code, California Code of Regulations - Title 24, Part 9, based on the International Fire Code.
The Community Risk Reduction Division's primary goal is to prevent fires before they occur. This
goal is achieved by ensuring existing and newly constructed properties have appropriate fire
protection and life safety systems. The Department's fire inspection program is essential in
reducing risks to the community, supported by comprehensive training standards that align with
National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), California Fire Code, and National City Municipal
Code (NCMC).
The Community Risk Reduction Division utilizes three Fire Inspectors and a Deputy Fire Marshal
to conduct inspections, covering approximately 2,743 properties annually. National City, with a
population of 57,000 over 9.12 square miles, includes a diverse array of structures such as
industrial facilities, commercial properties, residential areas, and historically significant buildings.
The City receives fees to cover the costs of the inspections. These fees vary by business type
and size.
Annual Fire Inspections
Fire inspections are essential for identifying and mitigating fire hazards. State law requires all
hotels, motels, lodging houses, apartment houses, schools, hospitals, jails and high-rises to be
Page 223 of 307
inspected annually. There are additional high-risk facilities, due to the nature of their operations
and occupancy levels that should be inspected annually in order to mitigate fire hazards and
ensure health and safety. It is recommended by staff that the following occupancies in National
City receive annual fire inspections:
Group A – The use of a building or structure, or a portion thereof, for the gathering of persons for
purposes such as civic, social, or religious functions; recreation, food or drink consumption; or
awaiting transportation or motion Picture and Television Production Studio Sound Stages.
Group B – “Restaurants Only” – Includes among others, the use of a building or structure, or a
portion thereof, that involves the use of open flames.
Group C – Programs and facilities established for the purpose of providing an outdoor group living
experience with social, spiritual, education, or recreational objective for five days or more.
Group F – Includes, among others, the use of a building or structure, or a portion thereof, for
assembling, disassembling, fabricating, finishing, manufacturing, packaging, repair, or processing
operations.
Group H – Includes among others, the use of building or structure, or portion thereof, that involves
the manufacturing, processing, generation, or storage of materials that constitute a ph ysical or
health hazard in quantities in excess of those allowed in controlled areas.
Group I – Includes, among others, the use of a building or structure, or a portion thereof, in which
people, cared for or living in a supervised environment and having physical limitations because
of health or age are harbored for medical treatment or other care or treatment, or in which people
are detained for penal or correctional purposes or in which the liberty of the occupancy is
restricted.
Group L – A room, building, or area where the use and storage of hazardous materials are utilized
for testing, analysis, instruction, research, or developmental activities.
Group M – Among others, the use of a building or structure, or portion thereof, for the display and
sale of merchandise, and involving stocks of goods, wares or merchandise incidental to such to
purposes and accessible to the public.
Group S – Includes among others, the use of a building or structure, or a portion thereof, for
storage that is not classified as a hazardous occupancy.
These properties present significant fire risks due to their high occupancy levels, sensitive
populations (e.g., elderly residents) etc., or potential hazards related to industrial activities.
Regular inspections are necessary to maintain fire safety and protect these vulnerable sectors of
the community. Inspections of these occupancy types would be subject to an annual fee.
Proposed Business Self-Inspection Program
To balance resources and enhance fire safety compliance, the Fire Department proposes the
implementation of a Business Self-Inspection Program. This program would allow low-risk
commercial businesses to conduct yearly self-inspections, focusing on easily manageable fire
safety measures such as ensuring fire extinguishers are serviced, exits are clear, and storage is
Page 224 of 307
properly maintained around fire protection equipment. Business owners/managers could request
the assistance of a fire inspector, if desired. A fee would be charged for this service.
A Business Self-Inspection Form will be developed to guide business owners through the process.
The form will include a checklist of basic fire safety requirements that can be easily verified by the
business owners. The form will also be designed to be user-friendly and provide clear instructions
on how to correct any deficiencies. To ensure widespread participation and compliance, the
Business Self-Inspection Form will be distributed with the annual business license renewal
process. Business will be encouraged to complete the Self-Inspection Forms but it will not be
required.
Biennial In-Person Fire Inspections
In addition to the Business Self-Inspection Program, the Fire Department will conduct an in-
person fire inspection every two years for all businesses not subject to annual fire inspections.
This biennial fire inspection ensures that fire safety standards are consistently upheld and allows
the department to identify and address any issues that may not be visible through self-assessment
alone. These businesses would be subject to a biennial fire inspection fee.
This approach would allow the Fire Department to focus its resources on Target Hazards and
higher-risk properties while maintaining a strong level of fire safety compliance across all
commercial businesses.
FINANCIAL STATEMENT:
The fees charged for conducting fire safety inspections offset the cost for performing the service.
Under the proposed revisions to Chapter 15.29 of the NCMC, staff expects, at full implementation,
the annual revenue from the fire inspection fees to be approximately $453,350.

AGENDA REPORT
Department: Community Development
Prepared by: Martin Reeder, AICP – Asst. Director of Community Development
Meeting Date: Tuesday, April 1, 2025
Approved by: Benjamin A. Martinez, City Manager
SUBJECT:
Introduction of Ordinance Amending Chapter 9.60 of the National City Municipal Code to Expand
Operating Hours for Store Front Cannabis Retail Facilities.
RECOMMENDATION:
Introduce Ordinance Entitled: “An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of National City,
California, Amending Chapter 9.60 ‘Commercial Cannabis Activity’ of the National City Municipal
Code to Modify Operating Hours for Store Front Retail Facilities.”
BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION:
Not Applicable.
EXPLANATION:
In response to a Policy 105 Request by Vice-Mayor Bush following a meeting with Sessions by
the Bay, a cannabis consumption lounge, the City Council requested that consideration of
modifying hours of operation for licensed cannabis retailers in National City be placed on the
Council agenda for discussion and consideration. This request was presented at the February 18,
2025 City Council meeting, where it was voted on and approved for placement on the March 4,
2025 agenda for discussion. At the March 4, 2025 meeting, the City Council directed staff to return
with an ordinance amending operating hours for store front cannabis retailers in alignment with
the state.
The current National City Municipal Code (NCMC) Section 9.60.250(G) limits operating hours for
store front cannabis retailers from nine a.m. to nine p.m. daily. The proposed amendment would
expand retail operating hours to six a.m. to ten p.m., consistent with California State law, which
allows cannabis retailers to operate within these hours. This change is intended to:
Align local regulations with State law, promoting consistency for cannabis businesses
operating in National City.
Support economic growth by allowing cannabis retailers to maximize operational hours.
Enhance community safety and compliance by regulating hours uniformly across all
licensed cannabis retailers.
This amendment will affect all licensed cannabis retailers operating within National City. It does
not increase the number of cannabis licenses or modify any other operational regulations. The
amendment strictly pertains to operating hours. Similarly, this amendment does not modify
operating hours for non-store front (delivery) retail facilities.
The ordinance proposes to amend NCMC Section 9.60.250(G) to read:
Page 231 of 307
“Operating hours of the Store Front Retailer License shall be limited to the hours of six a.m.
through ten p.m., seven days a week.”
For reference, other cities in San Diego County that permit retail cannabis sales and allowed
hours are as follows:
San Diego – 6 a.m. to 10 p.m.
Chula Vista – Same as state (6 a.m. to 10 p.m.)
Imperial Beach – 8 a.m. to 10 p.m.
La Mesa – 7 a.m. and 9 p.m.
Lemon Grove – 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. or as specified with a CUP
Oceanside – Per approved CUP
Vista – 6 a.m. to 10 p.m.
Encinitas – 7 a.m. and 9 p.m.
FINANCIAL STATEMENT:
There is no direct financial impact on the City’s General Fund from this ordinance. Indirect
economic benefits may be realized through increased sales tax revenue from extended
operational hours for cannabis retailers.

AGENDA REPORT
Department: Engineering and Public Works
Prepared by: Luca Zappiello, Associate Engineer - Civil
Meeting Date: Tuesday, April 1, 2025
Approved by: Benjamin A. Martinez, City Manager
SUBJECT:
Public Hearing and Introduction of an Ordinance Amending National City Municipal Code Title 11,
Section 11.32.140, Pertaining to Stopping and Parking Prohibitions.
RECOMMENDATION:
Introduce Ordinance by First Reading, entitled, “An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of
National City, California, Amending Chapter 11.32 ‘Stopping, Standing and Parking’ of the
National City Municipal Code Pertaining to Stopping and Parking Prohibitions.”
BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION:
Not Applicable.
EXPLANATION:
California recently passed Assembly Bill (AB) 413, commonly referred to as California's
Daylighting Law, which prohibits parking twenty (20) feet in advance (upstream) of a crosswalk
or fifteen (15) feet in advance when the location has a curb extension. The parking restrictions
apply to both “marked” (striped) and “unmarked” crosswalks. Daylighting is the concept of
removing parked vehicles or other obstructions at approaches to crosswalks to improve line of
sight for drivers and pedestrians attempting to cross the street. As of January 1, 2025, citations
may be issued for vehicles parked in violation of AB 413.
The new law, which was subsequently amended into Section 22500 of the California Vehicle
Code, does not require the restricted areas to be red-curbed or signed for “No Parking”. Rather,
the onus is placed on local agencies to make those types of determinations and to decide how
best to inform the public and provide enforcement. Staff recommends prioritizing installation of
signage or curb markings in areas with high pedestrian activity, such as business districts, as well
as locations frequented by vulnerable user groups such as schools, parks, and senior centers.
At the City Council meeting held on March 18, 2025, staff presented an overview of AB 413,
including details on implementation, community outreach strategies, and enforcement. A copy of
the presentation is attached for reference. Staff recommended returning to City Council with an
Ordinance to consider modifications to Title 11, Section 11.32.140 of the National City Municipal
Code to codify the parking prohibitions established by AB 413.
Attached are the proposed amendments to Title 11, Section 11.32.140 and Ordinance
FINANCIAL STATEMENT:
The cost to implement and enforce the measures required under AB 413 has not been
determined.

What is “Daylighting”?
Daylighting is the concept that traffic safety is improved by removing parked cars or other obstructions approaching
a crosswalk. By keeping the area next to crosswalks clear of parked vehicles or other obstructions, drivers can better
see people using or about to use the crosswalk.
Page 241 of 307
Assembly Bill (AB) 413 - The Daylighting Bill
AB 413 amended section 22500 of the California Vehicle Code (CVC) to state:
22500.A person shall not stop, park, or leave standing any vehicle whether attended or unattended, except when
necessary to avoid conflict with other traffic or in compliance with the directions of a peace officer or official traffic
control device, in any of the following places:
(n)(1)(A)Within 20 feet of the vehicle approach side of any marked or unmarked crosswalk or within 15 feet of
any crosswalk where a curb extension is present.
Exceptions.
Certain exceptions to this rule allow for the repurposing of these areas as 24-hour commercial loading zones,
provided they are appropriately signed and striped (CVC Section 22500(n)(2)), or as bicycle or motorized scooter
parking (CVC Section 22500(n)(3)).

Crosswalks - Definition
As defined by the California Vehicle Code (CVC) 275, “crosswalks” are defined as either:
a)That portion of a roadway included within the prolongation or connection of the boundary lines of
sidewalks at intersections where the intersecting roadways meet at approximately right angles, except the
prolongation of such lines from an alley across a street.
b)Any portion of a roadway distinctly indicated for pedestrian crossing by lines or other markings on the
surface.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this section, there shall not be a crosswalk where local authorities have
placed signs indicating no crossing.

AGENDA REPORT
Department: Planning
Prepared by: Martin Reeder, AICP – Asst. Director of Community Development
Meeting Date: Tuesday, April 1, 2025
Approved by: Benjamin A. Martinez, City Manager
SUBJECT:
Discussion of Potential Short-Term Rental Ordinance
RECOMMENDATION:
Direct Staff to Come Back with a Draft Ordinance Regulating Short-Term Rentals in the City.
BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION:
Not Applicable.
EXPLANATION:
Staff gave a brief staff report to the City Council in December on the topic of short-term rentals
(STRs), at which time staff was asked to return with additional information regarding current and
prospective short-term rental activities.
There are no current regulations on STRs, which means that they are not technically permitted
by our “permissive” Land Use Code. The only rentals regulated in the City are those of 30 days
or more. While an exact number is hard to know, there are routinely 100-200 STRs shown in the
City as vacation rentals by owner, primarily on the Airbnb or VRBO platforms. Costs to rent are
highly variable and range from $300 to $900 a night on weekends (April was used as a search
parameter). Although ensuring compliance with the Municipal Code with regard to public safety
is paramount, another issue is the missed opportunity to collect Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT),
which is required for traditional hotel and motel room rentals. Other cities that have STR
Ordinances require TOT payment, as well as conformance with other standards as discussed
below. National City’s TOT is 8% of the room rental rate. If there were 100 units rented out at
$500 a night, the resulting loss in TOT revenue would equate to around $4,000 a day, depending
on seasonality and market demand.
Of the 19 San Diego County jurisdictions (including the County), nine have STR regulations
(Carlsbad, Chula Vista, Coronado, Del Mar, Encinitas, Oceanside, San Diego, Solana Beach, and
Vista). Another six, while not having any specific STR regulations, allow STRs subject to normal
rental property regulations (County, El Cajon, Escondido, Imperial Beach, La Mesa, and San
Marcos). Four cities, including National City, do not regulate or permit STR’s (the others are
Lemon Grove, Poway, and Santee). TOT in the County ranges from 8% to 14%. The average
TOT in San Diego County is 10.3%. All but two cities collect TOT on STR’s.
Because the majority of cities with STRs are beach cities with different populations, scenarios,
and issues compared to National City, staff focused on the cities of Chula Vista and Vista, both
of which have STR Ordinances and are similar in location or population. Both cities have basic
requirements related to required permits, operating requirements, parking, payment of TOT, and
maximum number of guests, as well as minimum stays (2 days) and transfer of licenses.
Page 254 of 307
Chula Vista differs in that they require a STR landlord to maintain a primary residence in the city
and limits a permittee to two STR licenses. They also allow events (weddings, parties, fundraisers,
etc.) at STRs subject to a special permit. Vista has a more streamlined Ordinance, but allows up
to five STRs per permittee and does not allow any events at STRs. Both Ordinances are attached
for your reference and discussion. Staff is suggesting a streamlined, yet robust Ordinance that
would ideally be a hybrid of the two.
The next steps would generally be to discuss the components of a draft ordinance, introduce and
adopt the Ordinance, then implement the Ordinance. The Council may also opt to hold a public
workshop or workshops to solicit additional input from the community outside of the normal public
hearing process (there are two public hearings associated with introduction and adoption of
Ordinances). If a STR Ordinance is adopted, staff would then need to work with a vendor to
implement a licensing and TOT collection program.
FINANCIAL STATEMENT:
Development of a Short-Term Rental Ordinance will generate Transit Occupancy Tax
contributions to the General Fund. Future license and monitoring costs are intended to be offset
by permit fees.

Management Proposals
•The City has received proposals from
third-party vendors to manage and
enforce an STR program, including TOT
collection.

nuisance, or violation of this chapter by occupants occurring at the Short-Term Rental Property. In order to
facilitate communication, the Permittee shall provide contact information for themselves, the local contact and/or
Permittee’s Agent to the City and the Responsible Person. Failure of the Permittee, the Permittee’s Agent, and/or a
Local Contact Person to respond to calls or complaints in a timely and appropriate manner shall be grounds for
imposition of penalties as set forth in this chapter.

to other off-street parking spaces, or in some other on-site location and/or configuration, subject to the approval
of the Director of Development Services in their sole and absolute discretion. The Permittee shall provide access to
the garage of the Dwelling if that area has been included in the determination of the number of available off-street
parking spaces pursuant to this chapter. In no event shall off-street parking include the use of landscaped areas,
any private or public sidewalk, parkway, walkway, or alley (or any portion thereof) located on, at or adjacent to the
Short-Term Rental Property or block the driveway or street in front of said property. The term “sidewalk” shall
include the portion of the public right-of-way that is delineated for pedestrian travel including where it crosses a
driveway.
K. On-Street Parking. The maximum number of on-street parking spaces that may be used by a Short-Term
Rental Property shall be limited to one. For those streets of the City governed by permit parking districts, the
Permittee of a Short-Term Rental Property may purchase one parking permit or placard from the City that can be
used by guests and must be visibly displayed inside the vehicle of the Short-Term Rental Occupant, allowing no
more than one Occupant vehicle to park on a public street in that particular permit district.
L. No Recreational Vehicles. During periods that the Short-Term Rental Property is being used as a Short-Term
Rental by Occupants, no recreational vehicle or other vehicle used or designed for use as lodging or sleeping
accommodations, bus, boat, trailer, camper, cargo container, or personal watercraft may be parked at or on the
Short-Term Rental Property or on the street, unless it belongs to the Permittee, the Permittee is also physically
occupying the Short-Term Rental Property during that period, the vehicle is not being used by Short-Term Rental
Occupants, and in the case of an RV, a valid RV parking permit has been secured for the vehicle.
M. Maximum Occupancies. The maximum number of Persons who may occupy the Short-Term Rental at any
given time shall be limited to two individual Persons per Bedroom, plus two additional individual persons. In no
event may the maximum occupancy exceed 10 Persons in any Short-Term Rental. For purposes of this section,
Persons under the age of 12 shall not count toward the occupancy limitation. If the Short-Term Rental Permit
limits occupancy to a number less than that calculated pursuant to this section, the limit in the permit shall
govern.
N. No Large Events. At no time shall a Short-Term Rental Unit or Short-Term Rental Property be used for large-
scale events exceeding the maximum allowed occupancy pursuant to this section, unless a Short-Term Rental
Event Permit has been issued for such event pursuant to this chapter and only in accordance with the terms for
such permit.

Page 275 of 307
O. Advertising. All advertising appearing in any written publication or on any website that promotes the
availability or existence of a Short-Term Rental shall include the City-issued Short-Term Rental Permit number as
part of the rental offering.

to the zone they are located in.

interior location at the Short-Term Rental Property during any periods of occupancy thereof by any Person other
than the Owner(s) or Long-Term Tenant(s) of the Dwelling.
R. Duty to Minimize Noise, Disturbance, and Disorderly Conduct. The Permittee, the Permittee’s Agent and the Local
Contact Person shall use reasonably prudent business practices to ensure that the Occupants of a Short-Term

applicable law, rule or regulation pertaining to the use and occupancy of the subject Short-Term Rental Unit,
including, without limitation, violation of CVMC 17.24.040 or Chapter 19.68 CVMC.
S. Quiet Time From 10:00 p.m. to 9:00 a.m. The hours between 10:00 p.m. and 9:00 a.m. are considered to be
“quiet time,” so that no outdoor activity will disturb the peace and quiet of the neighborhood adjacent to a Short-
Term Rental Property or cause discomfort or annoyance to any reasonable Person of normal sensitivity residing in
the area. It shall constitute a major violation if any Occupants engage in outdoor activities on a Short-Term Rental
Property between the hours of 10:00 p.m. and 9:00 a.m. that involve the use of fire pits, barbecues, swimming
pools, hot tubs, spas, tennis or paddleball courts, or other similar and related improvements or play equipment, or
if any Occupants engage in outdoor parties, outdoor singing, shouting, clapping or other activities generally
associated with partying or if Occupants engage in any outdoor drunk or disorderly conduct during those hours.
Any other outdoor conduct between the hours of 10:00 p.m. and 9:00 a.m. that disturbs the peace and quiet of the
neighborhood adjacent to a Short-Term Rental Property, or causes discomfort or annoyance to any reasonable
Person of normal sensitivity residing in the area, shall constitute a minor violation. It is not a violation for an
Occupant to merely be out of doors during quiet time hours, so long as there is no conduct that disturbs the peace
and quiet of the neighborhood adjacent to a Short-Term Rental Property or causes discomfort or annoyance to
any reasonable Person of normal sensitivity residing in the area. The Permittee shall post signs of a size, type and
at a location (or locations) acceptable to the Director of Development Services near all doors leading to the
exterior of a Short-Term Rental Unit, advising Occupants of “quiet time.”
T. Trash and Debris. Trash and refuse shall not be left stored within public view, except in proper containers for
the purpose of collection by the responsible trash hauler and between the hours of 5:00 p.m. the day before and
12:00 midnight the day of the scheduled trash collection. The Permittee of a Short-Term Rental Property shall
provide sufficient trash collection containers and service to meet the demand of the Occupants. The Short-Term
Rental Property shall be free of debris both on site and in the adjacent portion of the street.
U. Written Contract Requirements. Prior to occupancy pursuant to each separate occasion of rental of a Short-
Term Rental Unit, the Permittee or the Permittee’s Agent shall enter into a written rental agreement with a
Responsible Person for each separate rental occasion. The Responsible Person (1) shall be at least 21 years of age;
(2) shall be an Occupant of the subject Short-Term Rental Unit during the term of said agreement; (3) shall be

to (a) provide his or her name, age, address, driver’s license number or passport number; (b) provide the vehicle
license number(s) for any cars to be parked on street; (c) agree to be accessible to the Permittee, the Permittee’s
Agent and the Local Contact Person (if any) by telephone at all times; (d) acknowledge his or her understanding of
all City of Chula Vista Short-Term Rental rules; and (e) agree that they are liable for any fines incurred by
Occupants and legally responsible for compliance by all Occupants of the Short-Term Rental Unit with all

notifications, and disclosures:
1. The maximum number of Occupants that are permitted and notification that failure to conform to the
maximum occupancy is a violation of this chapter.
2. The number of off-street parking spaces provided on the Short-Term Rental Property and the maximum

Person and all Occupants upon any violation of this chapter or the code by any Occupant.
5. The name of the Permittee’s Agent and the name of the Local Contact Person (if any) and a telephone
number at which those Persons may be reached at all times and 9-1-1 emergency information.

even if these requirements are stricter than the applicable covenants, conditions and restrictions or other
rules or regulations of the governing body of any homeowners’ association or maintenance organization
having jurisdiction over the Short-Term Rental Property.

V. Garages. Unless the garage of the Dwelling has been included in the calculation of the number of available off-
street parking spaces pursuant to this chapter, a garage may be used by the Permittee and Occupants of a Short-
Term Rental as a game room in accordance with the City’s requirements therefor; provided, however, that (1) no
couches or other furniture designed for use as, or conducive to, sleeping accommodations shall be located inside
a garage; (2) no independent living accommodations and facilities (including provisions for living, sleeping, eating,
cooking and sanitation) shall be located inside a garage; (3) the garage door must be kept closed and the Director

vehicles.
W. Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions. It is the responsibility of the Permittee and not the City to investigate,
verify with the relevant homeowners’ association or maintenance organization, and determine that the use of a
Dwelling as a Short-Term Rental does not violate any applicable covenants, conditions, and restrictions or any of
the regulations or rules of the homeowners’ association or maintenance organization having jurisdiction in
connection with the Short-Term Rental Property. Notwithstanding the City’s issuance of a Short-Term Rental
Permit, the City shall not have any obligation or be responsible for making a determination regarding whether or
not the issuance of a Short-Term Rental Permit or the use of a Dwelling as a Short-Term Rental is permitted under
any covenants, conditions and restrictions or any of the regulations or rules of the homeowners’ association or
maintenance organization having jurisdiction in connection with the Short-Term Rental Property, and the City shall

deems necessary or prudent to ensure compliance with the provisions of this chapter, including without limitation,
based upon any complaints or violations that occur or prior to a renewal of a permit.
AA. Additional Conditions. The Director of Development Services shall have the authority at any time to impose
additional conditions on the use of any Short-Term Rental Unit and/or property to ensure that any potential
secondary effects unique to the subject Short-Term Rental Unit or property are avoided or adequately mitigated.
BB. Hardships. The Director of Development Services is authorized to modify the standard conditions upon
request of an Applicant, Permittee, or their Agent, based on site-specific circumstances for the purpose of allowing
accommodation of a Short-Term Rental Unit. All requests must be in writing and shall identify how the strict
application of one or more of the standard conditions creates an actual and unreasonable hardship to a property
such that, if the requirement is not modified, reasonable use of the property for a Short-Term Rental would not be
allowed. Any hardships identified must relate to physical constraints to the Short-Term Rental Property and shall

continuance of any illegal Short-Term Rental or of a legal Short-Term Rental in an illegal manner. All Owners, Long-
Term Tenants, and Permittees shall cause their Short-Term Rental Property and Short-Term Rental Units, prior to
permit issuance and at all times during the term of a Short-Term Rental Event Permit, to be in compliance with all

AGENDA REPORT
Department: Planning
Prepared by: Martin Reeder, AICP – Asst. Director of Community Development
Meeting Date: Tuesday, April 1, 2025
Approved by: Benjamin A. Martinez, City Manager
SUBJECT:
Staff Report Describing the Discretionary Application Process for the Sweetwater Gas Station
Project.
RECOMMENDATION:
File the Report.
BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION:
Not Applicable.
EXPLANATION:
This staff report intends to provide information on the discretionary permit process and to address
concerns raised regarding the review of the Sweetwater Gas Station project under said process.
Previous Action
The property in question consists of five lots along the Sweetwater Road corridor between Olive
Street and Orange Street. Three of the properties were annexed into National City in 2020 and
all five were rezoned from residential to mixed-use as part of the same process. There was also
an approved project for a small commercial center with a drive-through coffee shop, but that
permit expired the same month as the subject permit was submitted.
Application
City staff is tasked with representing and protecting the community through the policies and goals
of the General Plan, as well as balancing the rights of property owners and developers to pursue
projects through the regulations of the Municipal Code (NCMC). The applicant for this project
submitted a Conditional Use Permit1 (CUP) application on April 29, 2024 for a retail convenience
store with alcohol sales, drive-through food/beverage business, gas station, automated car wash,
and a five-unit apartment building. All uses but the apartments require a CUP. A Zone Variance
application was submitted later in the process, as described further on in this report.
A discretionary permit that involves multiple requests that would otherwise each require a permit
if applied for individually are routinely bundled under one fee. It is a similar amount of work with
regard to analysis, report writing, and presentation. In this example, a CUP involving multiple
1 A Condition Use Permit is a type of land development permit that allows a use of land that isn't normally permitted
by zoning laws, but can be allowed if specific conditions are met.
Page 294 of 307
conditionally-allowed uses would only require payment of one CUP fee. A CUP permit fee of
$3,703 was submitted with the application.
Land Use Code
Title 18 (Zoning) of the Municipal Code regulates land uses and urban form in the City. Land uses
are categorized as either ministerial or discretionary. Ministerial permits are for uses that are
allowed by right, or with no discretion involved. This includes building permits, grading permits, or
developments that meet all minimum requirements of the Municipal Code. Residential uses, such
as the proposed apartments, would generally be considered a by right development in the Major
Mixed-Use District (MXD-2) zone in which the project is located. A discretionary permit requires
approval by the Planning Commission and/or the City Council. The Sweetwater Gas Station
project is considered a discretionary project, as the majority of the requested development
requires a CUP, which is a discretionary permit.
Application Processing
After reviewing the project request, Planning staff provided an Incomplete Letter2 on May 29,
2024, asking for a traffic study, evidence of a community meeting for the alcohol sales request,
and compliance with various design guidelines contained in the Municipal Code. A modified
version of the project with the same components was submitted on July 23, 2024. After review of
this resubmittal, Planning staff provided a second Incomplete Letter on August 6, 2024.
Comments referred to the need for another community meeting, a traffic study (although
preparation was already in process), and additional architectural design considerations. While a
community meeting had been held in the interim, the meeting advertisement did not meet City
requirements; therefore, a second community meeting was required (and ultimately held).
In the intervening period, the applicant team prepared a traffic study, which was submitted to the
City for review and was ultimately approved on November 8, 2024. It was determined that the
Project was presumed to have a less-than-significant impact on Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT)
with regard to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) guidelines for assessing potential
transportation impacts. This determination was made based on the Project consisting of local-
serving retail use less than 50,000 square feet in size and because the residential portion of the
Project was a small project generating less than 110 Average Daily Trips (ADT). While the traffic
did not rise to the level of CEQA, the traffic study did point to the need for a new traffic signal at
Sweetwater Road and Orange Street. This was included as a condition of approval.
While design changes were made, the applicant found that compliance with all applicable
Municipal Code design guidelines was not possible due to site constraints, primarily the triangular
nature of the property. Due to this hardship, the applicant applied for a Zone Variance3, which
requested wider driveways, less-than-required street wall width, and parking within the front yard
setback. Similarly to the discussion related to bundling multiple CUP requests mentioned above,
a Zone Variance request involving multiple requests would also be assessed one Zone Variance
fee. A permit fee of $3,703 was submitted with the Zone Variance request.
2 The Permit Streamlining Act (Government Code § 65943) requires that a reviewing agency inform an applicant of
whether the application is complete or incomplete within 30 days of application submittal.
3 A Zone Variance allows a property owner to deviate from strict zoning ordinance requirements when unique
circumstances, like unusual lot shape or topography, create a practi cal difficulty or hardship.

Permit Authority
Chapter 18.12 (Permits and Applications) of the Municipal Code indicates what type of permits
require what level of approval. In general, all staff-level decisions may be appealed to the Planning
Commission and all Planning Commission decisions may be appealed to the City Council. NCMC
18.12 states that the Planning Commission is either the decision maker or that it makes a
recommendation to the City Council for approval or denial as follows:
Role of Review Authority
Application Type Planning
Staff
Planning
Commission
City Council
Conditional Use Permit Recommend Decision Appeal
Variance Recommend Decision Appeal
Public Hearing
A public hearing was scheduled for the Planning Commission meeting of November 18, 2024.
Under preferred circumstances a staff report will be in final draft form prior to publishing the
required 10-day public notice. However, in this case, staff was still working on the report when
the notice was published. This was primarily due to staff wishing to help the applicant move the
project forward prior to the end of the year. With City staff being furloughed for two weeks over
the Christmas holiday and there being no Planning Commission meetings scheduled for January
2025 (due to the regular meeting days falling on observed holidays), the project would experience
a significant delay. Many project applicants have extenuating circumstances (e.g., escrow,
financing, due diligence period, etc.) and, as such, staff will help to expedite processes when
possible. Setting this item for hearing in November was intended as such, as a decision made by
the Planning Commission at that meeting would theoretically be in front of City Council in
December, prior to the end of the year.
However, between the public notice advertisement and the November 18th Planning Commission
meeting, it was determined that additional analysis was needed, which required more time than
was available prior to the meeting. Proceeding without the analysis would result in a report going
to the Commission without adequate legal review. Because the public hearing had been
advertised, the application was not able to be removed from the agenda prior to the November
18 meeting. At the November 18, 2025 meeting, the Planning Commission received public
comments from 11 community members. The Commission ultimately voted to continue the item
to December 2, 2024 in order to provide additional review time for staff. At the subsequent
meeting on December 2, 2024, the Planning Commission voted to deny the CUP and Zone
Variance request by a vote of 4-2 with one member absent.
Notice of Decision
In the case of a Planning Commission decision, per NCMC 18.12.040 D. 5, a Notice of Decision
is transmitted to the City Council as an informational item, usually on the Consent Calendar
Page 296 of 307
portion of the agenda. Notice of Decision, the only available action for the City Council to take is
to file the Notice of Decision or to hold the item for a public hearing. While the item is on consent,
the Council may not consider additional public testimony or discuss the merits of the project.
However, the City Council may elect to set the item for a future public hearing in order to receive
additional analysis or testimony (a de novo public hearing). If the notice is filed, the Planning
Commission decision is final (approval or denial). An applicant or aggrieved person may file an
appeal of a Planning Commission decision to the City Council within 30 days, at which time the
Council would hold a subsequent public hearing, take public testimony on the merits of the appeal,
and render a decision. City Council decisions or filing of Planning Commission decisions (absent
an appeal) are final. Any subsequent action would be through the public legal system.
A Notice of Decision must be transmitted to the City Council within 30 days (NCMC 18.12.040 D.
5) and is routinely on the agenda of the next regularly-scheduled City Council meeting. While this
is typically within two or three weeks, in some cases that timeline might be shorter. For example,
if there are extenuating circumstances (as discussed above.), a Notice of Decision may be placed
on a City Council agenda within days of a Planning Commission meeting. In this case, the next
City Council meeting was the day after the Planning Commission meeting, thus it was impossible
to get the Notice of Decision on that agenda. However, there were no regularly-scheduled City
Council meetings until 2025. In order to help the applicant get to a decision by the end of the year
and to meet the City’s 30-day requirement, the Notice of Decision was placed on the agenda for
the only remaining scheduled meeting of 2024, which was the Special City Council Meeting of
December 10, 2024. This meeting was held in order to certify the results of the election, but this
item was also added to the agenda.
As previously mentioned, an applicant may file an appeal of a Planning Commission decision to
the City Council within 30 days. The choices in this case at this time were to move forward with
the Notice of Decision or to appeal. In the case of the Notice of Decision, it would still be possible
for the City Council to hold over the item for a public hearing, but that is not guaranteed. The only
way to ensure a public hearing is to file the appeal. Planning staff communicated to the applicant
that the expected outcome, based on previous experience, was that the City Council would most
likely file the Notice of Decision, affirming the Planning Commission denial.
Withdrawal
An applicant may withdraw an application at any point of the process for any reason (e.g., change
in direction, financial, public concern, etc.). In the case of a public hearing for which a public notice
has been advertised, the discretionary body would still need to open the public hearing, solicit
public comment, and close the public hearing. At that point, the acting body would typically
continue the item off calendar, as was done by the Planning Commission. The applicant could
then choose to abandon the project, re-design or resubmit, or walk away. However, any change
in the project would result in the process starting over. In this case, the Notice of Decision on the
Consent Calendar was not a public hearing and the applicant chose to withdraw their project
application December 10, 2024, the day the Notice of Decision was scheduled to be considered.
Staff Recommendation
During the public hearing process, the respective discretionary body (board, commission, or
council) puts stock in the opinion of staff, as they are generally the subject matter experts with
regard to land use. Staff works to remain neutral, providing a recommendation and optional
Page 297 of 307
findings for denial. It is then up to the discretionary body to decide which findings to adopt based
on the facts and public testimony discussed at the public hearing. In cases where the Planning
Commission votes contrary to the recommendation of staff, staff will not generally change their
recommendation at the City Council level, but rather will state the history of the recommendation.
Staff’s initial recommendation is based on the merits of the application as presented, including
any and all conditions of approval, which are intended to ensure that the project complies with
applicable regulations and aligns with the broader goals and objectives of the local planning
framework. Any public comment or community input is considered by the discretionary body and
is taken into account when making a decision. Staff accepts and advances the decision of the
discretionary body.
A project may not always conform to all General Plan policies or goals. However, it is under the
purview of the discretionary body to determine if there are additional merits to consider that would
offset any concerns to the contrary. For example, additional density may be granted for a multiple
unit residential project if some units are restricted as affordable. In this case, the community
benefits from additional affordable housing opportunities, although the development density may
be more than the surrounding area exhibits. Ultimately, appropriate findings must be made to
support the decision.
CEQA
Planning staff brought this project application forward to the Planning Commission with the
recommended adoption of a CEQA Notice of Exemption as an Infill Development Project (CEQA
Class 32). This was primarily due to the fact that the project screened out of CEQA with regard to
VMT, as previously discussed. However, there was also discussion related to possible excessive
noise emissions associated with the proposed automatic car wash. The car wash was presented
by the applicant to staff as being of the newest technology with relation to noise attenuation. Staff
had asked for noise information, but none was initially provided. This was not considered as much
of an issue initially, as the car wash exit (usually the noisiest part of the operation) was on the
south side of the property, adjacent to Sweetwater Road. However, a site design change
necessitated by the traffic study’s queuing analysis resulted in the car wash being flipped 180
degrees, resulting in the exit being on the north side, closest to the neighboring residential area.
However, conditions were included with the draft approval resolution that required compliance
with Municipal Code noise standards and for a noise study to be provided prior to construction.
Afterword
A discretionary permit applicant is a client. The client pays a fee for an application, knowing that
they will lose the application fee in the case of a denial by the discretionary body. An application
request may not be popular with a respective community or consistent with all goals or policies of
the City, but it is the right of a property or business owner to apply. As long as the proposed use
is permitted (conditionally or otherwise), the City is obligated to take in an application . It is then
up to the approving body to make a decision on the project. If solicited by the applicant, staff will
often provide an opinion at the beginning of a discretionary application process about any
perceived issues or on the likelihood of approval. While staff cannot provide any certainty, they
will educate applicants on historical precedence and the most likely outcome. However, this is
never put forward as being an assumption to be relied upon; the decision to apply is always in the
hands of the applicant.
Page 298 of 307
Applicants will often meet with staff prior to an application or during the processing period to
discuss the facts of a project and ask for advice. For example, if an applicant holds a community
meeting for an alcohol license request and receives significant pushback from the community,
staff might suggest some mitigating circumstances to assuage concerns at the Planning
Commission or City Council hearings. These will be reflected in the draft conditions of approval
for a project. Likewise, an applicant may meet with elected or appointed officials to educate them
on a pending project that will be on a future agenda. Depending on the project, City officials may
have follow-up questions for staff on the project proposal, merits, or procedural questions related
to the application process.
In the case of the Sweetwater Gas Station project, Planning staff discussed with the applicant
prior to application submittal and prior to the item moving forward for a public hearing that the
proposal was very complex and that they should consider a reduced project. This included
removing the residential component and/or one of the commercial components. However, the
applicant chose to pursue the project as initially proposed. With the exception of the removal of
an above-ground propane tank due to Fire Department regulations, the project was ostensibly the
same as that which was originally submitted.

AGENDA REPORT
Department: City Manager's Office
Prepared by: Councilmember Luz Molina, District 1
Meeting Date: Tuesday, April 1, 2025
Approved by: Benjamin A. Martinez, City Manager
SUBJECT:
Discussion on Recommendation to Amend City Council Policy No. 105
RECOMMENDATION:
Discuss and Provide Direction to Staff.
BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION:
Not Applicable.
EXPLANATION:
At the City Council Meeting held on Tuesday, March 18, 2025, Councilmember Molina submitted
a City Council Policy No. 105 Request considering updates to Policy 105 for Efficiency. Council
consensus was received for Councilmember Molina to return with a report outlining
recommendations. The following is that outline:
Below is a list of different ways the policy can be amended. Please note that additional
recommendations are expected as a result of the Council discussion.
1. Justification & Impact Statement Requirement
Amend Section 2(a) to require that each request includes a justification statement
outlining:
How the item addresses a documented community need or priority
Impact on City resources, budget, and staffing
Alignment with City’s Strategic Plan or Council’s adopted goals
If request is deemed urgent, then include an explanation of the significant
consequences if not addressed immediately, such as financial loss, legal
implications, or safety risks.
The City Manager or Mayor or City Attorney, or a combo must review and
confirm the justification before placement on the agenda.
Including consideration given to other tasks or processes or disruptions in
overall operations that will be delayed due to completion of the urgent
request, and the resulting backlog created.
2. Councilmember Sponsorship Requirement
Require one additional councilmember to co-sponsor the item before it is
placed on the agenda to ensure broader support.
If a request is tied geographically to a specific district, the representative of
that district should be consulted.
Page 300 of 307
3. Priority Alignment Evaluation
The City Manager, in consultation with the City Attorney, should determine
whether the request aligns with:
Ongoing City initiatives
High-priority issues (e.g., financial stability, public safety, economic
development)
Items that do not align with City priorities can be deferred or require a
supermajority vote of the Council (4 out of 5 votes) to be placed on the
agenda.
4. Explore Policy Subcommittee:
Consider establishing a quarterly council subcommittee to review non-
essential, non-time sensitive policy requests from council members,
ensuring efficient prioritization and thoughtful consideration of these
issues.
5. Mandatory Cost-Benefit & Staff Time Analysis
Any item requiring staff research, legal opinion, or financial evaluation must
include:
Estimated staff hours needed
Associated costs (e.g., consultant fees, legal review costs)
If estimated costs exceed a threshold (e.g., $5,000 in staff time), it
requires a Council majority vote before further consideration
For a City Council Policy, the explanation of urgency might include:
1. Immediate Need: A situation requiring quick action to meet a deadline or respond to an
urgent community issue, such as a public safety concern.
2. Impact on Residents: If delayed, it could affect residents' well-being, local businesses, or
the city's functioning.
3. Legal or Regulatory Requirements: A law or regulation that demands prompt attention or
compliance.
4. External Pressure: Requests from the public or other governing bodies that require quick
decision-making.
The explanation should clearly convey why fast action is necessary and the consequences of
delay for the city and its residents.
FINANCIAL STATEMENT:
Not Applicable.

CITY COUNCIL POLICY
CITY OF NATIONAL CITY
AMENDED: October 5, 2021
ADOPTED: March 12, 1985
POLICY # 105 TITLE: Request by Member of City Council to Place an Item on
a City Council Agenda
PURPOSE
In compliance with the Ralph M. Brown Act, items not already on the agenda cannot be
discussed or considered during a City Council Meeting. Discussing without notice does not
provide the public, staff, or other City Councilmembers time to review the subject matter, and
contemplate a response for discussion or provide direction.
This policy is to establish a clear and effective process for the City Councilmembers to place
items on the City Council Agenda for consideration.
POLICY
1. The City Councilmembers may request that an item be placed on a future City Council
Meeting Agenda for discussion and possible action.
2. For any item to be placed on the City Council Meeting Agenda, by the City
Councilmembers, the following will assist in the City Manager in the agenda planning
process:
a. A single page Council Item Request Form to agendize the request to be
discussed, and the City Councilmember’s recommended action to address
the matter. No additional material other than the single page request may
be submitted to be agendized at the initial City Council Meeting in which
the matter will be heard.
b. The request must be submitted no later than 5:00 p.m. on the Tuesday prior
to the regularly scheduled City Council Meeting to allow the City Manager
and City Attorney time to review the item and determine, if the matter as
written, in the single page request, should be placed on the open or closed
session of the City Council Agenda.
c. If the City Manager, in consultation with the City Attorney, determines the
matter is appropriate to be included in the open session agenda it will be
added to the agenda as written. If the City Attorney, determines the matter
should be discussed in Closed Session, the City Manager’s Office will draft
the required agenda wording for listing the matter under Closed Session
on the City Council Meeting Agenda. The single page request, written by
the City Councilmember, will be provided to the entire City Council in
Closed Session.

d. Discussion would be limited to whether an item should be added to an
agenda and a date, not the merit of the item.
e. If a majority of the City Council votes to include the item as an action item
at a subsequent City Council meeting it will be determined who will provide
the report:
i. The City Councilmember prepares a report including supporting
information and documentation, and a presentation of the item to be
discussed at the meeting, with City Manager and City Attorney
review; or
ii. The City staff will be directed to provide a report analysis including
fiscal review, legal review, and policy review of the action by the City
Councilmember, requesting and recommendation (if any) among
alternatives (if any) as soon as the research and staff report can be
reasonably completed at a subsequent City Council Meeting.
f. If the request requires further study of the item from staff, a full analysis
shall be prepared at the direction of the City Manager with at least thirty
(30) calendar days to prepare, unless otherwise directed by the City
Council. Status updates will be provided to the City Council every sixty
(60) days as an informational memo.
g. This policy would provide the City Manager the authority to determine
placement and timing, unless City Council direction is time-sensitive, and
requires immediate placement on the next regularly scheduled City Council
Meeting.

WRITTEN REQUEST
I, Marcus Bush , hereby request that the following item be placed on the City of
National City – City Council meeting agenda for consideration.
Request to Review and Update the City’s Ethics Policy and Expand the Scope of the Civil Service
Commission to Include Ethics Oversight Authority
Purpose of the Request:
The purpose of this Policy 105 request is to place a discussion item on the next public City Council meeting
agenda for the Council to consider and provide direction on:
1. Reviewing National City’s current Ethics Policy (Council Policy #119);
2. Updating the policy to reflect modern standards of ethical governance and public accountability;
and
3. Exploring an amendment to expand the powers of the Civil Service Commission to act as an
Ethics Commission for National City—providing an internal, independent body for ethics
oversight, complaint review, and enforcement.
As part of this analysis, the Council will also examine the City of San Diego’s Ethics Code and Ethics
Commission structure as a model for best practices in ethics governance and public integrity. Since the City
of San Diego is a charter city, the analysis would need to identify any implementation challenges with the
City of National City being a general law city.
Justification:
During the March 18, 2025 City Council meeting, our Council debated a proposal by Councilmember Jose
Rodriguez to form an ad-hoc committee made of councilmembers to investigate Mayor Ron Morrison and
Executive Assistant Josie Flores-Clark. 4 out of the 5 members of Council were strongly opposed to Council
launching investigations with no evidence as well as the legal risks involving personnel. However, Council
expressed a desire to investigate any questions or concerns of abuse of power, corruption, or violations of
our code of ethics.
Page 306 of 307
While National City’s current Code of Ethics and Conduct provides valuable guidance around
professionalism and civility, it lacks key elements that are essential for effective ethical governance,
including:
• Independent investigatory authority;
• Confidential or anonymous complaint processes;
• Defined standards around gifts, lobbying, conflicts of interest, or use of public office for private
gain;
• Structural safeguards in high-impact areas such as land use, development decisions, public
contracting, and campaign activity.
By comparison, the City of San Diego offers a robust framework grounded in:
• Clear and enforceable ethics rules;
• An independent Ethics Commission with the authority to investigate, audit, and impose fines;
• Mandatory disclosure, training, and advisory opinions to support compliance.
Updating National City’s ethics policy and expanding the oversight authority of the Civil Service Commission
(rather than creating a new committee) would strengthen public trust, prevent ethical violations before they
occur, and demonstrate the City’s commitment to transparency and good governance.
