Huth, Interim City Manager SUBJECT: City Council 2025 Legislative Recess RECOMMENDATION: Provide Direction to Staff on observing a Legislative Recess, which is Historically taken in the Month of July, as Allowed by National City Municipal Code (NCMC) 2.04.020, and City Council Policy No. 104 (III)(H), and (K). BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION: Not Applicable. EXPLANATION: Legislative Recess - July Since 2014, the City Council (Council) has observed a legislative recess during the summer to provide City Staff and Elected Officials an opportunity to catch up on work, reenergize, and prepare for the start of a new fiscal year. The purpose of this agenda item is to determine whether the City Council would like to once again consider a legislative recess in 2025. Background Observing a legislative recess from a City Council Meeting Schedule is practiced in a number of San Diego cities that recess both in the summer and winter. Some cities, including State Legislature and quasi-governmental entities such as the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) and the Airport Authority, recess over an entire month, generally in the summer. For the past eight (8) years, the Council voted to recess during the month of July. Prior to that the City Council voted to recess during the month of August one (1) time. This is consistent with City Council Policy #104 Section III Meetings (H): H. City Council Recess Periods: The City Council has traditionally observed a recess period during the summer to provide elected officials and staff an opportunity to catch up on work, reenergize after a lengthy budget and strategic planning process, and prepare for the start of a new fiscal year. For purposes of this policy, a recess period is defined as a period of time longer than twenty (20) days without a regular or special meeting of the Council. To assist the City Council with its decision, please note the following: Should the City Council recess in July, there would be (6) weeks between meetings (June 17- August 5, 2025). As a reminder, the first meeting after the break, Tuesday, August 5, 2025, is also “National Night Out.” City Councils in the past have opted to begin the City Council Meeting Page 43 of 252 at 5:00 p.m. with a light agenda, allowing the City Council to attend the “National Night-Out Against Crime” events held in the City. National City Municipal Code Section 2.04.020 – Dispensing with Meetings. In the event that the time of a regular meeting of the City Council falls on a holiday or election day, no meeting will be held that week. Any regular meeting may be dispensed with by a vote of the City Council. City Council Policy No. 104 (III)(K) K. Holidays or Elections: In the event that a regular meeting of the City Council is scheduled on the same day as a legal holiday or an election day on which a National City Candidate or National City Measure appears on the ballot, no meeting will be held that week. Any regular meeting may be dispensed with by a majority vote of the City Council.

Brown Act ORDINANCE: Not Applicable EXHIBITS: Not Applicable Page 44 of 252 AGENDA REPORT Department: Fire Department Prepared by: Walter Amedee, Emergency Manager Meeting Date: Tuesday, May 6, 2025 Approved by: Scott W. Huth, Interim City Manager SUBJECT: Fire Prevention Services Agreement RECOMMENDATION: Adopt the Resolution Entitled, “Resolution of the City Council of the City of National City, California, Waiving the Formal Bid Process Pursuant to National City Municipal Code Section 2.60.110 (B) and Authorizing the Mayor to Execute an Agreement by and Between the City of National City and Fire Prevention Services, Inc. for Weed and Litter Abatement Services”. BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION: Not Applicable. EXPLANATION: National City Municipal Code Section 9.12.020 declares weeds growing on streets, sidewalks, or private property to be a public nuisance. The City’s Buyer conducted extensive research to identify companies providing weed and litter abatement services. The City’s Buyer, like most cities in San Diego County, has been unable to find a qualified provider other than Fire Prevention Services, Inc. Pursuant to National City Municipal Code Section 2.60.110 (B), the City’s Buyer determined that issuing a new request for proposals (RFP) was unlikely to yield additional qualified bidders and would be impractical since there are limited-service providers in San Diego County. Additionally, the City has contracted with Fire Prevention Services Inc. since 2014, which was the sole bidder when the last RFP was issued. Therefore, under these circumstances, it was determined that no obvious, ascertainable advantage to the City would result from issuing a new RFP. The current Agreement with Fire Prevention Services is expiring in May 2025. So, the National City Fire Department is requesting establishing a new three-year agreement with Fire Prevention Services, Inc., from May 19, 2025 through May 18, 2025, with the option for three additional one- year extensions. Fire Prevention Services, Inc. is pleased to offer the City of National City weed and liter abatement services, as identified in the quote attached to the proposed Agreement. FINANCIAL STATEMENT: Revenues 100-70-22-22100-3561- Weed Abatement Expenses 100-70-22-22100-7299- Contract Services New liens are recorded in revenue account 100-70-22-22100-3561- Weed Abatement. Special Assessments collected by the County for Weed Abatement are sent to the City. Collected fees are recorded and posted to account 001-1146 (Special Assessment-Weed Abatement). On an annual basis, the collected fees recorded in 001-1146 will be processed as a City pass-through payment to Fire Prevention Services, Inc. for their contracted services.

Schultz, City Attorney Page 65 of 252 AGENDA REPORT Department: Engineering & Public Works Prepared by: Luca Zappiello, Associate Engineer-Civil Meeting Date: Tuesday, May 6, 2025 Approved by: Scott W. Huth, Interim City Manager SUBJECT: Memorandum of Understanding between San Diego Unified Port District, San Diego Association of Governments, California Department of Transportation, City of San Diego, and National City for development of the Harbor Dr. 2.0 Port Access Improvements Project RECOMMENDATION: Adopt the Resolution Entitled: “Resolution of the City Council of the City of National City, California, Authorizing the City Manager or Designee to Execute a Memorandum of Understanding Between the San Diego Unified Port District, the San Diego Association of Governments, the California Department of Transportation, the City of San Diego, and the City of National City for Collaboration in the Development and Implementation of the Harbor Drive 2.0 Port Access Improvements Project.” BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION: Not Applicable. EXPLANATION: On February 7, 2023, per Resolution No. 2023-07, the City authorized execution of a five-year Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) with the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) to prepare and approve the environmental document for the I-5/SR-15/Harbor Drive 2.0 Connected Corridor project. The initial scope of the project included the introduction of dedicated truck lanes for all-day and off-peak hours, as well as the implementation of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) technologies along Harbor Drive and the connecting arterials to I-5 and SR-15 in San Diego and National City. After the MOA was executed, the scope of the I-5/SR-15/Harbor Drive 2.0 Connected Corridor project was expanded to include the construction of the Vesta Street Bridge, along with the installation of ITS technologies on Harbor Drive. The proposed Vesta Street Bridge will provide direct vehicular connectivity between the east and west sections of Naval Base San Diego, which are currently separated by rail lines and Harbor Drive. Additionally, the project title changed from the I-5/SR-15/Harbor Drive 2.0 Connected Corridor project to the Harbor Drive 2.0 Port Access Improvements Project (Project). The attached Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) will have a term of five years and aims for all parties involved to collaborate towards the shared objective of completing the Design and Right-of-Way Certification phases of the Project. The parties identified in the MOU include the Page 66 of 252 San Diego Unified Port District, the San Diego Association of Governments, the California Department of Transportation, the City of San Diego, and the City of National City. A key point to note about the MOU is that the Port District and SANDAG secured funding for the design and right-of-way phases in February 2024. SANDAG will lead the design and Right-of- Way Certification outside of Caltrans Right-of-Way, while Caltrans will lead the Right-of-Way Certification within its own Right-of-Way for the Harbor Drive ITS Component. This proposed Harbor Drive ITS Component element includes improvements along Harbor Drive in National City and plans to install two traffic signals along 8th Street at the off -ramp and on-ramp of Interstate 5. Additionally, the Vesta Street Bridge element is located within the City of San Diego. Staff has reviewed the MOU, and agrees with its terms and conditions. Staff recommends that the Council adopt the resolution authorizing the City Manager or designee to execute the MOU. FINANCIAL STATEMENT: No matching City funds required at this time.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this MOU is to establish a good-faith foundation between the PARTIES for collaborative efforts that are mutually beneficial in the development of the Harbor Drive 2.0 Port Access Improvements Project (“Project”) as further detailed herein. The PARTIES agree to work together in a cooperative and coordinated manner in developing and planning the Project. The Project is comprised of the construction of the Vesta Street Bridge (Vesta Street Bridge) and the installation of the Harbor Drive Intelligent Transportation System (ITS). The proposed Vesta Street Bridge will facilitate direct vehicular connectivity between the east (dry) and west (wet) portions of Naval Base San Diego (NBSD) that are currently separated by rail lines and Harbor Drive. With the Vesta Street Bridge in place, vehicles would not need to use the City street network between the east and west sides of the NBSD, reducing out of direction travel and relieving traffic congestion at existing NBSD gates and adjacent intersections. Harbor Drive currently experiences high levels of congestion that slow down Port and Naval operations and produce downstream impacts on residents living and working in the portside neighborhoods. The Harbor Drive ITS will improve access and circulation by optimizing signal timing and circulation to facilitate truck and other vehicle movements along Harbor Drive and connecting arterials to I-5 and SR-15 in San Diego and National City. The Project is intended to improve accessibility, goods movement, economic vitality, and the well-being of local communities.

Section 2: That the City Clerk shall certify to the passage and adoption of this Resolution and enter it into the book of original Resolutions. PASSED and ADOPTED this 6th day of May, 2025. Ron Morrison, Mayor ATTEST: Shelley Chapel, MMC, City Clerk APPROVED AS TO FORM: Barry J. Schultz, City Attorney Page 78 of 252 AGENDA REPORT Department: Fire Department Prepared by: Walter Amedee, Emergency Manager Meeting Date: Tuesday, May 6, 2025 Approved by: Scott W. Huth, Interim 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 79 of 252 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).

Ron Morrison, Mayor ATTEST: Shelley Chapel, MMC, City Clerk APPROVED AS TO FORM: Barry J. Schultz, City Attorney Page 137 of 252 AGENDA REPORT Department: Planning Prepared by: Martin Reeder, AICP – Asst. Director of Community Development Meeting Date: Tuesday, May 6, 2025 Approved by: Scott W. Huth, Interim 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. April 1, 2025 City Council meeting The City Council directed staff to modify this report to include a more robust discussion of CEQA (California Environmental Quality Act), ex-parte meetings, and findings for denial. These items are discussed in the following sections below: “CEQA”, “Afterword” (ex-parte communications), and “Staff Recommendation” (findings for denial). 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, 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 138 of 252 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 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 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. Page 139 of 252 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. 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 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 practical difficulty or hardship. Page 140 of 252 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 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 in 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 Page 141 of 252 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 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. *Updated information related to Staff Determination* Staff will almost always include findings for denial, as well as for approval with a staff report. In the case of this project, there was uncertainty over which of the seven components would be included or omitted per Planning Commission direction. In their staff report, staff encouraged the Planning Commission to consider each request made by the applicant on their individual merits, as it is within the purview of the Planning Commission to approve all or some of the requests, or deny the project as a whole if appropriate findings can be made. As staff had maintained that the project was ambitious and should be scaled back, it was expected that the project would be at least continued in order to be redesigned (scaled back), at which time staff would have a better idea on how to craft denial findings. At the Planning Commission meeting where a decision was made, 41 community members registered an opinion of the proposal (37 in opposition and four in support), with 26 speakers raising concerns related to public safety, air pollution, public nuisance, and public convenience and necessity for the sale of alcoholic beverages for off-site consumption. The resolution adopted by the Planning Commission recommended denial of the project based on these findings. 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 Page 142 of 252 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. *Updated information related to CEQA* The Local Transportation Analysis provided to the Planning Commission included a traffic impact analysis, which identified substantial effects from the proposed project. While impacts were analyzed, the project was not subject to further study by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because no significant impact on Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) were found. The threshold for VMT impacts for a similar development is a project with at least 50,000 square feet of proposed commercial floor area. The basis for a project’s traffic impacts is the anticipated trip generation. The analysis found that the project would generate a total of 2,743 daily trips with 195 AM peak hour trips and 231 PM peak hour trips. Of these 1,961 daily trips are Primary trips as opposed to Pass-By. Primary trips are those that are new to the street system as opposed to vehicles that are already circulating within the adjacent street network. Based on the fact that the project screened out of CEQA with regard to VMT, the only other potential issues that warrant discussion are noise (initially discussed above) and air quality. In the CEQA checklist (Initial Study) prepared for the previous project (Annexation, Zone Change, and CUP), since expired (drive-through coffee shop), air quality was discussed in the context of a project generating 1,390 daily trips (an additional 621 excluding Pass-By trips). In the case of the recently-denied project, the additional Primary trips were three times as many and the project included a gas station. However, as mentioned above, the since-adopted VMT analysis requirement screens out this project. Therefore, with regard to other air quality analyses in the Initial Study, the findings were thus: The City does not have any applicable air quality plan or standards that would apply in this case. Air quality is under the purview of the San Diego County Air Pollution Control District. The County of San Diego and National City are in attainment for all California Clean Air Act (CCAA) pollutants with the exception of ozone. Approval of this project will not conflict with or obstruct the implementation of the San Diego County Regional Air Quality Strategy (RAQS) to manage air quality in our region. It should be noted that a new gas station is required to obtain an operation permit from the San Diego County Air Pollution Control District (APCD), which will be subject to National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) and Air Toxic Control Measures (ATCM). This requirement was included as a recommended condition of approval of the project, violation of which would have constituted a violation of the CUP. Page 143 of 252 The Initial Study for the Annexation and Zone Change (and now-expired CUP) concluded that no mitigation was required and a Negative Declaration was adopted as Based on the totality of this analysis, staff was confident in using the Class 32 CEQA exemption (Section 15332): CEQA Guideline Section 15332 identifies the Class 32 categorical exemption for projects characterized as in-fill development. This exemption is intended to promote infill development within urbanized areas. The class consists of environmentally benign in-fill projects which are consistent with local general plan and zoning requirements. This class is not intended to be applied to projects which would result in any significant traffic, noise, air quality, or water quality effects. As discussed in the original report and at the Council meeting of April 1, 2025, there may have been a benefit in having additional time to perform CEQA analysis, especially related to car wash noise emanation. Staff strives to provide effective project analysis, both related to CEQA and City policies/codes, and will continue to monitor project timelines to ensure adequate environmental and regulatory analysis. 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. 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. Page 144 of 252 *Updated information related to Ex Parte Communications* Ex parte Communications occur when, prior to considering a matter on a public meeting agenda, a member or members of the City Council receive information, oral or written or otherwise pertaining to that particular matter outside the public meeting. This would include meetings with project applicants and/or community members. It is common for elected officials to meet with their constituents to hear concerns regarding a potential project. These ex parte contacts are not legally prohibited. However, they are subject to certain guidelines in order to preserve the integrity of the decision-making process and to insure due process for all involved. First, the meetings should be informational only and the elected official should not provide any indication of the decision they might make on the project, nor should they share their position on issues related to the project. This is to ensure that the decision-maker remains impartial and without bias. Second, all ex parte communications must be disclosed at the time of the public hearing on the project. This is to ensure that any decision is made based on information that was available to all decision-makers. In this case, the Mayor and his assistant did on occasion communicate with the applicant regarding concerns the applicant had regarding the process. These procedural questions were relayed to staff via the City Manager and ultimately addressed with the applicant. These ex parte communications would have had to be disclosed had there been a hearing on the Project before the City Council. FINANCIAL STATEMENT: Not applicable. Informational item only.

Huth, Interim City Manager SUBJECT: Public Hearing and Adoption of an Ordinance Amending Chapter 15.29 of the National City Municipal Code Establishing a Fire Inspection Program. RECOMMENDATION: Hold Public Hearing and Adopt an Ordinance by Second 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 195 of 252 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 physical 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 196 of 252 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. Conclusion The City Council held a public hearing at their meeting of April 1, 2025, and introduced the Ordinance. The City Council voted 4-1 in favor of approving the Introduction of the Ordinance. Staff is recommending adoption of the Ordinance tonight. The Code Amendment would then take effect 30 days from the date of adoption. 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.

Page 202 of 252 AGENDA REPORT Department: Engineering Prepared by: Ricardo Rodriguez, Assistant Engineer-Civil Meeting Date: Tuesday, May 6, 2025 Approved by: Scott W. Huth, Interim City Manager SUBJECT: Public Hearing and Introduction of an Ordinance of the City Council of the City of National City, Repealing Ordinance No. 2023-2521 and Adopting an Ordinance Establishing Sewer Service Charges for FY 2025-2026, 2026-2027, 2027-2028, 2028-2029, 2029-2030. RECOMMENDATION: Hold Public Hearing, Consider and Count the Number of Protest Votes Received, and Introduce Ordinance Titled, “An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of National City, California, Repealing Ordinance No. 2017-2442, as Amended by Ordinance No. 2023-2521, and Adopting an Ordinance Establishing Sewer Service Charges for Fiscal Years 2025-2026, 2026-2027, 2027- 2028, 2028-2029, and 2029-2030.” BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION: Not Applicable. EXPLANATION: On March 4, 2025, The City Council adopted Resolution 2025-21 Entitled: “Resolution of the City Council of the City of National City, California, 1) Accepting the Sewer Rate Study; 2) Approving Revisions to Policy No. 201, Maintenance of Reserve Funds; and 3) Scheduling a Public Hearing and Directing Staff to Mail Out a Notice of Public Hearing as Required by Proposition 218.” The Notice of Public Hearing was mailed out with a public hearing date of May 6, 2025 at 6:00 pm. The City of National City provides wastewater service to more than 17,000 customers within the incorporated area of the City. The City owns and operates approximately 100 miles of sewer pipeline, 2,000 manholes, and 2 lift stations. With this municipal sewer system, the City collects and conveys wastewater flows originating from residential and commercial properties within the City, and connects to the City of San Diego Metropolitan Wastewater System (Metro) to ultimately arrive at San Diego’s Point Loma Treatment Plant for treatment and disposal. The City endeavors to operate the sewage system in a safe and efficient manner while meeting the needs of its customers as well as all State and Federal regulatory requirements. These include, but are not limited to, State Wastewater Discharge Requirements (WDRs), imposed by the California State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB), and others by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA). Complying with these regulations and resulting mandates creates a large share of the cost burden on the City’s system. In order to confirm that the revenue received by the City in the form of sewer service charges is sufficient to cover the cost of operation and capital improvements, as well as meet the target reserve level, on a regular basis it must evaluate the need to increase rates by conducting a Sewer Rate Study. Pursuant to Proposition 218, the City must hold a Public Hearing to receive input as it considers a rate adjustment for sewer service charges to National City residences and Page 203 of 252 businesses. The Notice of Public Hearing that was mailed out to all property owners who receive sewer service from the City on March 12, 2025 is included as Exhibit A. On December 19, 2017, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 2017-2442, following the Proposition 218 process, establishing sewer service charges for 5 years from Fiscal Year (FY) 2018 (2017-2018) through FY 2023. The service charges included increases of 9.8% for each of those years with the anticipation that the financial picture of the wastewater system for the City would stabilize during that time. The actual revenues received from the projected rates matched the model well and costs experienced during this time were also similar. The City Council then adopted Ordinance No. 2023-2521 on June 6, 2023, which amended Ordinance No. 2017-2442 and maintained the sewer service charges at the same level with no increase for FY 2024 and FY 2025. This was done via a public hearing without Prop. 218 noticing since there were no increases adopted. In the Fall of 2024, the City hired Ardurra Group, Inc. (Ardurra) as a subconsultant to Anser Advisory to complete a full Sewer Rate Study report through a review of expected revenue and expenditures for the next five fiscal years. Ardurra completed the assessment and the full report is included in Exhibit B. Further background on the City’s agreement with Metro for treatment and disposal is provided there. The report identified the following key elements based on system needs that impact the analysis and determination of rates: 1. While the City’s current reserves may seem high compared to required reserve levels, the City has many costs that will occur over the next few years. They include some items that have certainty in cost and some for which the final fiscal impact is still unknown, such as: a. Final Audited and true up Metro costs for the past 4 years have not yet been completed while the actual known costs of the Pure Water Phase I have increased. b. The final negotiations of the Second Amended and Restated Metro agreement have not happened and thus the final costs due to Phase I Pure Water Program and the offloading of the system from the East County Joint Power Authority’s Advanced Purified Water program are not yet known. Pure Water Phase 2 is just beginning the planning phase and final costs are uncertain. c. Final Metro costs for several of their sewer spills over the past 2 years have not yet been negotiated and finalized. 2. Inflation is affecting the City’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP) costs. Construction costs are still vastly outpacing inflation. 3. Significant CIPs have been identified through recent sewer system modeling and investigation. 4. The City is undertaking a comprehensive CCTV evaluation of the pipes in the system. This may identify other improvements needed in the aging system. 5. Small rate increases will help revenue keep up with inflation while a focus on CIP projects will draw down reserves. 6. Government Code section 53756 allows an agency providing water, wastewater, sewer, or refuse collection service to adopt a schedule of fees or charges authorizing automatic adjustments that pass-through increases in wholesale charges for water, sewage treatment, or wastewater treatment or adjustments for inflation. Given the uncertainty of the costs to be incurred from the City of San Diego, adopting a pass-through ordinance as part of the rates is recommended. This allows an adjustment if the costs from Metro are more than what is currently anticipated. While no significant changes have occurred in the flow characteristics and distribution of flows or billing classifications in the past 7 years, some minor changes have occurred. It has been determined that mobile home rates should not increase as much as single family rates as their Page 204 of 252 water use has dropped more than for single family properties, and commercial rates should be increased more than residential rates to keep the proportion of the fees appropriate over time due to the increased costs of treatment for the effluent generated by commercial properties. The City’s sewer utility was evaluated on a ‘stand-alone’ basis, meaning that no subsidies by other City funds occur in order to cover the costs of running the system. By viewing the utility on a stand-alone basis, the need to adequately fund both operations and maintenance (O&M) and CIP must be balanced against the rate impacts on utility customers. The sewer system utility does pay other departments for shared resources that provide administrative support. The City is still developing the details of the five-year CIP, but the estimates included in the rate study are based upon existing information with a projection for future needs. The largest component of the City of National City’s revenue requirement is the cost associated with transportation, treatment and disposal of the City’s wastewater by the Metro facilities. A summary of the projected City collection system O&M, CIP and Metro expenses compared to proposed sewer rates is included in the rate study and summarized in the charts below. Based on cost of service and projected revenue requirements, the City proposes new sewer service charges. The following table shows the recommended monthly and unit charges in dollars and compares them to existing charges: Annual Sewer Service Charges for FY 2025-2026 to FY 2029-2030 * Duplexes or a single family with a single ADU on one property are charged one single family rate and one multi-family rate. Page 205 of 252 The recommended rate increases, on a percentage basis, are as follows: The following chart presents a long-term forecast of revenues versus expenditures and reserves. The intent is to provide the potential financial picture of the Sewer Service Fund over the next 10 years based upon the inclusion of proposed sewer rate increases (revenues), total expenses, and operational & Capital Reserves. The rate study is only for five years, but it shows the need to have the rates gradually increased while reserves are drawn down, otherwise the rate increases would be substantial in future years to catch up. The forecast in the second five-year period is with rates and inflation generally being consistent, but show a matching of the cash reserves and the reserve targets with reduced system CIP needs. The following chart represents a monthly sewer rate comparison for other Participating Agencies of the San Diego Metro system before and after the FYE 2026 proposed rate increase. With the rate increase for FYE 2026, National City would still be among the lowest sewer rates. Page 206 of 252 For the recommendation that the City consider implementing a pass through of inflation and City of San Diego wastewater treatment costs, the rates being adopted are in conformance with Government Code section 53756. It specifically reads as follows: An agency providing water, wastewater, sewer, or refuse collection service may adopt a schedule of fees or charges authorizing automatic adjustments that pass through increases in wholesale charges for water, sewage treatment, or wastewater treatment or adjustments for inflation, if it complies with all of the following: (a) It adopts the schedule of fees or charges for a property-related service for a period not to exceed five years pursuant to Section 53755. (b) The schedule of fees or charges may include a schedule of adjustments, including a clearly defined formula for adjusting for inflation. Any inflation adjustment to a fee or charge for a property-related service shall not exceed the cost of providing that service. (c) The schedule of fees or charges for an agency that purchases wholesale water, sewage treatment, or wastewater treatment from a public agency may provide for automatic adjustments that pass through the adopted increases or decreases in the wholesale charges for water, sewage treatment, or wastewater treatment established by the other agency. (d) Notice of any adjustment pursuant to the schedule shall be given pursuant to subdivision (a) of Section 53755, not less than 30 days before the effective date of the adjustment. The recommended fees are in compliance with the above statute in that they are established for not more than five years, the fees are based on an assumption that the Consumer Price Index inflation rate for San Diego does not increase more than 3% per year for each year of the rate study, and the City does pay wholesale costs to the City of San Diego for wastewater treatment. Therefore, the ordinance does include a reference to the above statute that, if necessary, allows for the City to pass through any increases for inflation or treatment above what is included in the rate study. Page 207 of 252 The City did receive comments and protest votes as part of the noticing process. One comment received did note that the rate study report referenced Best Management Practices (BMP’s) established by the State of California on page 3-6. That reference instead should be to the State of California’s Waste Discharge Requirements (WDR’s) that require that the City have a source of revenue to allow for the appropriate maintenance of the City’s wastewater system. This administrative, non-substantive clarification does not result in any changes to the rates developed and does not require a revised report. In summary, staff recommends that Council hold a public hearing, receive public comment and count any protests received and if a majority of protests are not received, approve the Ordinance. If authorized to continue, a second public hearing and recommendation to adopt the Ordinance will be held on May 20, 2025. FINANCIAL STATEMENT: Increasing the existing sewer fees for Fiscal Years 2025-2026 to 2029-2030 will maintain the reserve levels set by the City Council and allow for the on-going maintenance, operation, and repair/replacement of the sewer system.

PUBLIC NOTIFICATION: The Agenda Report was posted at least 72 hours before the Regular Meeting date and time, and 24 hours before a Special Meeting in accordance with the Ralph M. Brown Act ORDINANCE: First Reading EXHIBITS: Exhibit A – Notice of Public Hearing Exhibit B – Sewer Rate Study Exhibit C – Ordinance Page 208 of 252 Engineering & Public Works Department 1243 National City Boulevard, National City, CA 91950 619/336-4380 www.nationalcityca.gov NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING To Consider Proposed adjustments to Sewer Service Charges Tuesday, May 6, 2025, 6:00 p.m. Proposition 218 Pursuant to Article XIIID of the California Constitution and the Proposition 218 Omnibus Implementation, the City of National City (“City”) hereby gives notice that a public hearing will be held on May 6, 2025 at 6:00 PM, or as soon as possible thereafter as the matter can be heard, at the regularly scheduled City Council meeting. The public hearing will be held in the Council Chamber of City Hall, located at 1243 National City Boulevard, National City, California, 91950. Upon conclusion of the public hearing, the City Council will consider a proposed increase to the rates the City charges for sewer service for Fiscal Years 2025/26 through 2029/30. If approved, the rate adjustment will become effective on customers’ 2025/26 property tax bills. For more detailed information on how the sewer rates were calculated, copies of the Ardurra rate study analysis (see below) are available at http://www.nationaIcitvca.gov/engneerinpublic- works/engineering-division/sewer-service or at the Engineering/Public Works Department, located at 1243 National City Boulevard, National City, California, 91950, Telephone No. (619)- 336-4380. Reason for Proposed Rate Increase The City is provided wastewater treatment and disposal services by the City of San Diego’s Metropolitan Wastewater System (“Metro”). The proposed rate adjustments will allow the City to collect sufficient revenue so the City may continue providing sewer service to customers in the face of sharply increasing operating costs from Metro. The proposed rate adjustments will also enable the City to pay for capital improvements that are essential for operating the sewer system in a safe and financially prudent manner. The City’s system is aging and requires more extensive maintenance. Revenues derived from the City’s sewer service charges, and any adopted adjustments described in this notice, will be used solely for the actual and necessary expenses of providing sewer service to customers. The City is prohibited by law from making a profit on sewer service. The City elected to conduct a comprehensive review of its sewer rates for all users to ensure the long-term stability of its sewer services. The new proposed rate increases are based on a January 28, 2025 rate study titled "City of National City Sewer Rate Study” (the “Study”) conducted by Ardurra, a well-respected engineering and consulting firm. Ardurra considered all sewer-related factors described in this notice, in addition to other, more specific information described in the Study, in conducting their sewer rate analysis. The Study’s underlying rate methodology will be discussed in more detail at the public hearing. Protest Procedure The property owner of record or tenant of the property may file a written protest to the proposed rate adjustment. Property owners or tenants do not have to attend the public hearing in order to file a protest. Protests may be mailed to: City Clerk, 1243 National City Boulevard, National City, Page 209 of 252 Engineering & Public Works Department 1243 National City Boulevard, National City, CA 91950 619/336-4380 www.nationalcityca.gov California 91950. If protesting by mail, please write on the front of the envelope that the enclosed letter of protest is for the proposed sewer rate adjustments. AII protests must be received before the close of the public comment portion of the public hearing on May 6, 2025. Any protests received after that date and time, even if postmarked on or prior to that date, will not be counted. The protest must be signed by the property owner(s) or tenant(s). Because an original signature is required, any protest received via e-mail, fax, or other electronic means will not be accepted. Similarly, protests with copies of signatures will not be counted. Oral comments do not qualify as a protest, unless accompanied by a written protest. While both property owners and tenants of a property may attend the public hearing, only one valid protest per parcel will be counted. In order to be counted, each protest must contain the following: 1. State that the property owner of record is opposed to the proposed rate increase. 2. Identify the location of the parcel by street address, assessor’s parcel number (APN) listed on the address label of your envelope, or City account number. 3. Provide the printed name and original signature of the property owner or tenant submitting the protest. 4. If you wish to protest and you own multiple properties, you may file one valid protest for each parcel that you own. Only one protest will be counted per parcel. For example, if you own five parcels and you wish to file protests for each of your properties, you must file five separate protests. 5. If you wish to protest and your parcel is owned by more than one person, or by a corporation or other legal entity, you may only file one protest for that parcel. Proper documentation must be provided showing that the person who signs the protest has the authority to sign on behalf of the other owners, corporation, or legal entity. 6. If the name of the property owner was not shown on San Diego County's last equalized assessment roll as the owner of record, you must provide the City with a certified copy of a recorded deed. Individuals with disabilities who require reasonable accommodation under the Americans with Disabilities Act in order to participate in the public hearing should contact the City Clerk’s Office as far in advance of the public hearing as possible. Proposed Increases The City last adjusted sewer service charges in FY 2017 for a five year period ending in FY 2023. The Study showed that, over the next five years, current sewer service revenues will not meet the increasing cost of City operating and capital expenses. The City’s system of sewer service charges meets regulatory and industry standards, and the current rate schedule reflects the proper elements of a cost-of-service-based rate structure. No structural changes to the current system of charges will be made, but rate increases are different for different customer classes to maintain the correct balance of the cost-of-service. Based upon the Study, rate increases will be considered for each of the City’s four distinct sewer customer groups: (1) single-family residential; (2) multi-family; (3) mobile home parks; and (4) commercial/industrial. The City maintains a specific sewer charge formula for each of Page 210 of 252 Engineering & Public Works Department 1243 National City Boulevard, National City, CA 91950 619/336-4380 www.nationalcityca.gov these four customer groups. Single family, multi-family, and mobile home customers are billed flat rates based on a system of equivalent dwelling units established for each of these three customer groups. Commercial/industrial users are placed into one of five rate categories based on (1) their respective sewage strengths, and (2) 90% of the users’ total water usage from the prior year. The following rate table contains the recommended sewer service charges that the City Council will consider for adoption at the public hearing: *Commercial properties have an annual minimum charge which is equivalent to the mobile home annual charge. Duplexes or a single ADU with a single family on a property are charged one single family rate and one multi-family rate. Pass-Through Costs The above-proposed rate table is based, in part, on projections provided by Metro, which provides treatment for all of the City’s sewage. State law allows the City to pass through to customers any increases to wholesale treatment costs that exceed the budgeted amounts for those services in the rate study. In the event of any adopted increase of such wholesale costs, the City may automatically adjust the rate table above and will provide customers at least 30 days’ notice before the effective date of any adjustment. If you have any questions about this process, or this notice in general, please contact the Engineering / Public Works Department at (619)-336-4380.

US EPA U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Page 216 of 252 Section 1 – Executive Summary 1-1 Section 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This report was prepared for the City of National City (City) to document the development of a wastewater multi-year financial plan, cost of service analysis, and rate design for the City (rate case). The specific goals of the study were to:  Evaluate the adequacy of projected revenues under existing sewer service charges to meet projected revenue requirements;  Develop a wastewater cost of service and rate model for the City covering a five- year study (Fiscal Year 2025-2026 (FY 2026) through Fiscal Year 2029-2030 (FY2030)) period for both ongoing operations and planned capital improvements;  Allocate the projected fiscal years revenue requirements to the various customer classes in accordance with the proportionate share of their wastewater contributions;  Develop a five-year sewer service charge program that produces revenues adequate to meet financial needs of the City for both their required funding of the transportation & treatment of wastewater by the City of San Diego’s Metropolitan Wastewater System (Metro) including the city’ share of the Pure Water Program and the City’s operations and capital needs, while recognizing customer costs of service, and local and state legal and policy considerations such as California Constitution Articles XIII C and D (Proposition 218), and Proposition 26; and  Recommend appropriate reserve levels for operations and capital needs 1.1 FINDINGS During the course of our analysis in relation to the specific goals of the study we made the following findings: 1. The City of National City last adjusted the sewer service charges in FY 2017. 2. Wastewater service charge revenues at current levels will not be sufficient over the next five years to meet the increasing cost of City operating and capital expenses without negatively affecting fund balance levels1. Table 1-1 on the next page illustrates the projected financial picture without recommended sewer service charge adjustments. While the fund has reserves, the costs of services are rising and _________________________ 1 The term “fund balance” refers to the remaining amounts available after short-term liabilities (monies owed) are paid off with the agency’s available cash and other financial resources (such as receivables). The fund balance includes reserved and unreserved components. For the purposes of this Study, this term refers to “available cash excluding reserved monies” and the term “fund” refers to the account in which monies reside for operating or capital expenditures, specifically known as the Sewer Service Fund. Page 217 of 252 Section 1 – Executive Summary 1-2 large increases to rates would be necessary in the future if incremental increases are not enacted now. Furthermore, with the capital projects anticipated to be constructed in the coming years, the reserve balance would fall below the target level by FY 2030. Table 1-1 – Sewer Service Fund Long Range Plan without Revenue Adjustments (Status Quo) 3. The City’s formal reserve policy for their operations or capital funds should be updated. 4. The City currently does not have a mechanism to pass through wholesale treatment costs from the City of San Diego to customers should those costs rise beyond projections in the cost of service model, or beyond future year projections. 5. The City has an adequate system of sewer service charges to meet regulatory and industry standards, and their current rate schedule reflect the proper elements of a cost of service based rate structure. Thus, we are not recommending any structural changes to the current system of charges, but the increases are not equivalent across customer classes. 6. The City’s capacity charge for new development has not been updated in many years. The City will be evaluating and determining how those charges should change as a separate process in the near future. Page 218 of 252 Section 1 – Executive Summary 1-3 1.2 RECOMMENDATIONS The following lists Ardurra’s recommendations to address the findings listed above: 1. Per the cost-of-service analysis contained within this report, Ardurra recommends City wastewater service charges be adjusted to reflect current costs of providing sewer service to customers within the City. This recommendation includes adjusting total revenue from rates in FY 2026 and ending in FY 2030 as shown in Table 1-2. Based on the cost-of-service analysis, revenue adjustments per customer class do vary. Table 1-2 – Recommended Annual Revenue Adjustment Should the City approve these rate adjustments, the projected financial picture of the City will draw down reserves, while increasing user fees at a nominal rate. While FY 2030 is nominally under target for the fund balance, a 10 year look forward has the fund only dipping below the balance for just the one year and the City should monitor both revenue and expenditures over the study period to assure it stays on track. This is presented in graphic format with Figure 1-1 and all of the detailed numbers in 1-3. Figure 1-1 includes projections to 2035 showing the projections stabilize with these increases. However, any projection beyond 5 years includes many assumptions that may or may not be accurate. Figure 1-1 National City Annual Sources and Uses of Funds vs. Cash Reserves and Reserves Targets Page 219 of 252 Section 1 – Executive Summary 1-4 Table 1-3 - Sewer Service Fund Long Range Plan with Recommended Revenue Adjustments 2. Based on cost of service and projected revenue requirements the City should adopt the following sewer service charges. Table 1-4 shows the proposed sewer charges for FY 2026 through FY 2030 and compares them to existing charges. Table 1-4: Recommended Annual Sewer Service Charges Page 220 of 252 Section 1 – Executive Summary 1-5 Figure 1-2 summarizes all San Diego Metro Member Agencies comparative sewer user rates based on 7 HCF of water usage/sewer flow and a residential monthly base fee. It should be noted that the rates shown are those effective January 1, 2025, based upon readily available information. The figure also includes the City’s current monthly rate as well as the proposed FY 2026 rate of $52.72 per EDU per month. The City’s first proposed rate adjustment will not begin until July 1, 2025. Many agencies are in the process of updating their current rate cases. Even with the proposed 5-year rate adjustments National City will still enjoy some of the lowest rates among the users of the San Diego Metro System. The proposed FY 2026 single family rate will be as low as $52.72 which is 15% lower than the existing (FY 2025) average Metro member agency rate of $62.21. Figure 1-2 Metro Member Agencies Sewer Rates Comparison 3. The City’s reserve policy generally protects the financial integrity of their sewer service fund. The following minor changes are recommended (shown below as strike-through for deletion and underlined for additions): Sewer Service Fund Operations/Cash Flow Reserve: Between 25& At least 50% of a single year’s budgeted Sewer Service Fund Operating Expenditures. Sewer Service Fund Metro Cash Flow Reserve: an amount equal to the City’s estimated portion of the projected cash needs for capital costs of the San Diego Metropolitan Sewerage’s Wastewater Treatment Program. This amount is assumed to be $850,000 for fiscal year 2025-26 through fiscal year 2029-30 Page 221 of 252 Section 1 – Executive Summary 1-6 Sewer Service Fund Emergency/Natural Disaster Reserve: an amount equal to a minimum of 15% of a single year’s budgeted Sewer Service Fund Operating expenditures, including both operational and capital improvement program costs. Sewer Service Fund Capital Replacement Reserve: an amount equal to between 10% & 15% of a single year’s budgeted Sewer Service Fund operating expenditures user fees. Sewer Service Fund Capital Expansion Reserve: an amount equal to between 10% & 15% of a single year’s budgeted Sewer Service Fund operating expenditures user fees. 4. Ardurra recommends that the City provide a provision to give the City the ability to pass through City of San Diego wholesale transportation, treatment, and disposal costs to customers should those costs rise beyond projections in the cost-of-service model or beyond what the City notices to customers at time of rate implementation. This action would obviate the need for the City to conduct another Proposition 218 mailed 45-day notice and public hearing requirement. The authority to provide this provision is located in California Government Code Section 53756. Specifically, the Government Code reads as follows: An agency providing water, wastewater, sewer, or refuse collection service may adopt a schedule of fees or charges authorizing automatic adjustments that pass-through increases in wholesale charges for water, sewage treatment, or wastewater treatment or adjustments for inflation, if it complies with all of the following: (a) It adopts the schedule of fees or charges for a property-related service for a period not to exceed five years pursuant to Section 53755. (b) The schedule of fees or charges may include a schedule of adjustments, including a clearly defined formula for adjusting for inflation. Any inflation adjustment to a fee or charge for a property-related service shall not exceed the cost of providing that service. (c) The schedule of fees or charges for an agency that purchases wholesale water, sewage treatment, or wastewater treatment from a public agency may provide for automatic adjustments that pass through the adopted increases or decreases in the wholesale charges for water, sewage treatment, or wastewater treatment established by the other agency Page 222 of 252 Section 2 – Introduction 2-1 Section 2 INTRODUCTION This study (Study) takes a long-range planning approach to establishing wastewater service charges and fees. A discussion of the long-range plan and recommended sewer charge and fee adjustments are included in the following section of this report. The analyses contained herein include operation and maintenance (O&M) costs, City of San Diego Metropolitan Wastewater Department (Metro) transportation, treatment and disposal costs, reserve levels, and identified capital improvement projects (CIP). To that end, the Study examines the revenues generated by the City and makes recommendations for revenue adjustments, as needed. The City retained NV5 in 2017 to update a wastewater cost of service study previously developed by PBS&J in FY 2003. Ms. Carmen Kasner supported this effort and in FY2023 she completed a minor update to the study to confirm that holding the rates flat for two years through FY2025 was appropriate. For purposes of this report, the study period is the fiscal years beginning July 1, 2025, and ending June 30, 2030. Unless otherwise noted, references in this report to a specific year are for the City’s fiscal year ending June 30. To avoid confusion between calendar and fiscal years, the term FY refers to the year beginning July 1 and ending June 30. Presented herein are the results of a Study of the City’s projected revenues, revenue requirements, cost of service, and rates for service. 2.1 BACKGROUND: CITY OF NATIONAL CITY The City provides wastewater service to approximately 17,000 customers within the incorporated area of the City of National City. It owns and operates approximately 100 miles of pipeline, 2,000 manholes, and 2 lift stations. The collection, treatment, and disposal of wastewater in an environmentally safe and efficient manner promote healthy communities and increase the quality of life for local residents. The City is responsible for collecting wastewater flows originating within the City and conveying the collected flows to the City of San Diego’s Point Loma Treatment Plant for treatment and disposal. The City’s primary goals are operating the sewerage system safely and efficiently while meeting the needs of their customers. To meet these goals, the City undertakes routine cleaning, inspections, and repairs and rehabilitates its facilities as needed. The wastewater system operates in an area subject to strict regulatory oversight by Federal and State agencies such as the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) and the California State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB). The City must comply with a multitude of laws including, but not limited to, State Wastewater Discharge Requirements (WDRs). Complying with these regulations and resulting mandates contributes to a large share of the cost burden on the City’s system. Page 223 of 252 Section 2 – Introduction 2-2 The City completed a Wastewater Master Plan in 2017 which will be updated in the near future, this plan identified numerous projects to upgrade the system. Recently the City has begun a more aggressive CCTV program to identify improvements. Based upon early results of about 10% of the system, numerous improvements are necessary. Due to these identified issues and significant increases in construction costs an average of $6 million per year for the next 3 years and then $5 million and $4 million for the following years are proposed for required rehabilitation and expansion projects. These annual projected capital improvement costs (CIP) are incorporated into this Study and form the basis for the City’s annual capital requirements. 2.2 BACKGROUND: CITY OF SAN DIEGO METROPOLITAN SEWAGE TREATMENT SYSTEM The City of National City is one of thirteen participating agencies (PAs) who send their wastewater to the City of San Diego Metropolitan Sewage Treatment System (Metro) for treatment and disposal. Along with the other PAs the City entered into the Regional Disposal Agreement with San Diego in 1998. Due to positive financial negotiations with San Diego since that time and especially the establishment of the “Administrative Protocol on Allocation of Operating Reserves and Debt Service Coverage” during FY 2010 the City has enjoyed stable annual billings for the last 8 years from the City of San Diego. However, in 2015 the City of San Diego initiated a multi-billion-dollar public works project entitled the Pure Water Program which will provide the double benefit of “secondary equivalency” to San Diego’s wastewater customers including National City as well as a significant new potable water supply for the City of San Diego. This resulted in a Major amendment to the Regional Disposal agreement approved in 2018 but that amendment left many elements to further discussion and negotiations. Since that time, the City is well underway with construction of their Pure Water Program and the East County Joint Powers Authority has begun construction on their Advanced Purified Water Project. For the past 6 years, discussions and negotiations on those open-ended items has progressed and the City of San Diego and Metro members appear to be coming close to a final Draft of a Second Amended and Restated Agreement. A five-year projection of Metro costs for the City were received from the City of San Diego in December of 2024 but do not include some uncertainties because there are still many unknown final costs. The projections received do not include costs for the spills in the system during rain events in the past two winters, the final costs for upgrades to the large Metro Pumpstations 1&2 that were conditions of a spill from four years ago, the final rate methodology for the Second Amended and Restated Metro Agreement (SARA) that is still being negotiated, Costs for Pure Water Phase II, nor do they include final audited costs for the past three Fiscal Years. The City of San Diego recommends that each agency have a pass-through provision in their rates due to these uncertainties at the moment. Page 224 of 252 Section 2 – Introduction 2-3 2.3 RATE STUDY SUMMARY The City of National City customers enjoy some of the lowest sewer service charges in the Metro System as shown in Figure 2-1 and have for many years. The City last adjusted sewer service charges in FY 2023 and held them flat for the past two years. the FY 2025 charge is 15% lower than the average Metro PA rate of $62.21 per month. However, the City’s increased internal CIP requirements and the costs associated with Metro require that the City adjust their sewer rates for the next five years. The rate study assumed 3% inflation for all expenses except Metro for the rate study period. Figure 2-1 Sewer Rate Comparison for Participating Agencies in San Diego Metro System Page 225 of 252 Section 3 – Wastewater Rate Study 3-1 Section 3 WASTEWATER RATE STUDY 3.1 OVERVIEW OF THE SEWER SERVICE CHARGE UPDATE PROCESS A comprehensive rate study typically utilizes three interrelated analyses to address the adequacy and equity of the utility’s rates. These three analyses are a revenue requirement analysis, a cost-of-service analysis, and a rate design analysis. The process is illustrated in Figure 3 -1. Figure 3-1 Overview of the Comprehensive Rate Study Analysis The City’s sewer utility was evaluated on a “stand-alone” basis. That is, no subsidies between the utility or other City funds occur. By viewing the utility on a stand-alone basis, the need to adequately fund both operations and maintenance (O&M) and capital infrastructure (CIP) must be balanced against the rate impacts on utility customers. A detailed and comprehensive process was used to review the City’s rates. As a part of the rate study process a number of on-site project meeting and conference calls were used to review the results with City staff. From this process, final proposed rates were developed and their development is reviewed in this section of the report. Following is a summary of each step in the process. Revenue Requirement Analysis Compares the sources of funds (revenue) to the expenses of the utility to determine the overall rate adjustment required Cost of Service Analysis Allocates the revenue requirements to the various customer classes of service in a "fair and equitable manner Rate Design Analysis Considers both the level and structure of the rate design to collect the target level of service Page 226 of 252 Section 3 – Wastewater Rate Study 3-2 Revenue Requirement Analysis: The revenue requirement analysis revealed that several significant financial changes have occurred since the City’s 2023 update holding rates flat. The significant changes are:  The current CIP needs of the City have increased due to construction cost increases, additional CCTV and inspection. The age of the city’s system and some densification requiring some upsizing. The Rate study has updated CIP costs to an average of $6 million per year for the next 3 years and then $5 million and $4 million for the following years. This will allow the City to draw down some of the fund reserves and make significant progress on required rehabilitation and expansion projects that are causing a higher risk of spills and more operational costs. These annual projected capital improvement costs (CIP) are incorporated into this Study and form the basis for the City’s annual capital requirements. These costs were not included in the City’s FY 2025 adopted budget.  The construction phase of the City of San Diego’s Pure Water Program is nearly done and during FY 2025 to FY 2030 additional Metro costs are anticipated for Phase 1 of this program due to Audit true ups and the previously discussed SARA that is being negotiated and other Metro system issues. The City’s portion of the Metro budget is currently 7.4% and while the SARA draft methodology does not increase the City’s percentage, there is still uncertainties with flows and impacts from the East county JPA project. The largest component of the City of National City’s revenue requirement is the costs associated with transportation, treatment, and disposal of the City’s wastewater by the Metro facilities, an aggressive CIP is a close second. A summary of the projected City collection system O&M and CIP, plus San Diego Metro expenses to be included in the City’s rate case, are included on Table 3-1. Table 3-1: City of National City Revenue Requirements Page 227 of 252 Section 3 – Wastewater Rate Study 3-3 Figure 3-2 shows the percentage of each of the major cost centers in the City’s rate case. As noted, the largest component of National City’s revenue requirements (47%) will be paid directly to the City of San Diego. Figure 3-2 Major Cost Components of City of National City’s FY 2026 Revenue Requirements As a part of establishing the revenue requirement for the City’s rate case City staff requested Ardurra consultant’s guidance in reviewing their reserve policy to financially protect the City’s sewer service fund. At the end of FY 2024 (June 30, 2024) the City’s sewer service fund showed a reserve cash fund balance of $26.3 million. Ardurra consultants reviewed with City staff industry standard guidelines in establishing formal reserve policies as well as the City’s needs for financial stability and potential exposures to external forces which could require unplanned O&M or capital expenditures. The City’s reserve policy is solid as it was updated in a prior rate study, but the following minor updates are suggested (shown below as strike-through for deletion and underlined for additions). Sewer Service Fund Operations/Cash Flow Reserve: Between 25& At least 50% of a single year’s budgeted Sewer Service Fund Operating Expenditures. Sewer Service Fund Metro Cash Flow Reserve: an amount equal to the City’s estimated portion of the projected cash needs for capital costs of the San Diego Metropolitan Sewerage’s Wastewater Treatment Program. This amount is assumed to be $850,000 for fiscal year 2025-26 through fiscal year 2029-30 Page 228 of 252 Section 3 – Wastewater Rate Study 3-4 Sewer Service Fund Emergency/Natural Disaster Reserve: an amount equal to a minimum of 15% of a single year’s budgeted Sewer Service Fund Operating expenditures, including both operational and capital improvement program costs. Sewer Service Fund Capital Replacement Reserve: an amount equal to between 10% & 15% of a single year’s budgeted Sewer Service Fund operating expenditures user fees. Sewer Service Fund Capital Expansion Reserve: an amount equal to between 10% & 15% of a single year’s budgeted Sewer Service Fund operating expenditures user fees. The final step in determining the revenue requirement for the City’s rate case was to overlay the projected expenditures for the next five years as summarized in Table 3-1 and the recommended reserve policy. Table 3-2 creates a long-range plan showing the use of reserves to minimize the annual rate adjustment to per year stating in FY 2026 through FY 2030. The use/replacement of the City’s reserves is shown on Line 22. While the FYE2030 shows the fund balance slightly under the target, that target is with the maximum percentages from the reserve policy and thus are still well within the appropriate reserve amount. During the next 5 years there will be more clarity available from Metro and from the City’s CCTV and planning efforts. A detailed copy of the five-year revenue requirement is included in Appendix A to this report. Table 3-2: City of National City Long Range Financial Plan Page 229 of 252 Section 3 – Wastewater Rate Study 3-5 Ardurra did look at a 10 year projection of rates and increases and assumed a similar increase of a nominal 3% with expenses increasing at a similar rates and it shows that the rate increase shown here will stabilize the expenditures into the future unless significant additional Capital projects are identified or inflation and other cost factors change as well. Any projection past 5 years includes many assumptions that may or may not be accurate. Figure 3-3 National City Annual Sources and Uses of Funds vs. Cash Reserves and Reserves Targets Cost of Service Analysis: The cost-of-service analysis revealed that several major changes have occurred in users and use since the City’s 2017 rate study and subsequently adopted sewer user rates. The significant changes are:  As with other communities in San Diego County and Southern California the City’s citizens and businesses have decreased their water usage significantly since FY 2017. This was especially the case during COVID when many businesses were closed. This has decreased revenues from the commercial and industrial users of the City who are billed on their annual water usage.  The City uses an equivalent dwelling unit (EDU) system of rates for their residential users. Historically the City has used 240 gallons per day (gpd) for a single-family residential user for billing purposes. Multi-family/condo units are considered to be 0.8 EDU and mobile home units 0.6 EDUs. These EDUs are consistent with industry standards for EDU based user systems. However, due to the decreased water use by residential as well as commercial/industrial users the gallons per EDU have decreased to an estimated 220 gpd. 220 gpd is consistent with the other Participating Agencies wastewater generation rate (in gpd) for EDUs The City’s rate model was updated with the number of residential and commercial/ industrial users used for billing purposes on the FY 2025 tax roll. As noted above the gallons Page 230 of 252 Section 3 – Wastewater Rate Study 3-6 for residential EDUs were revised to 220 gpd per EDU and the most recent water usage for commercial/industrial users was included. Table 3-3 summarizes the current number of City users and their projected sewer flows based on the current tax roll water use data for FY 2025. Table 3-3: Summary of Current Users and Estimated Sewer Flow Rate Design Analysis: As part of the rate setting process a routine review of an agency’s sewer service charge rate structure is performed. This is done to assure that the agency’s rate structure meets industry standards as well as complies with local, State, and Federal guidelines and regulations. The City of National City first established their current rate structure in the mid-1990’s and it was submitted to the State Water Resources Control Board of the State of California (SWRCB) and the US EPA. The rate structure and the cost allocations upon which it is based were approved by both the SWRCB and the US EPA. These principles still meet industry standards today and follows Best Management Practices (BMP’s) established by the State of California, and thus there are no recommended changes to the existing rate structure. The City uses a combination of EDU’s for residential users and water based rates for commercial/industrial users. Single family residential users are considered to be 1 EDU, and multi-family/condo users 0.8 EDU, and mobile home users 0.6 EDU. Commercial/industrial users are grouped based on their estimated sewage strengths into five classes of users. Each year 90% of the prior year’s water usage per commercial/industrial customer is used to determine the upcoming year’s sewer service charge (Return to Sewer percentage). There are a few customers with different Return to Sewer percentages based upon a case by case situation which includes a field inspection and engineering review of the situation.

However, based upon treatment costs in FY2030, having all customer classes having the same percentage increase would place an unfair burden on SFR customers. The cost for treatment for commercial customers must be increased a higher percentage to keep the proportions correct. All classes of users will continue to be billed their annual sewer service charge on the County of San Diego tax roll based on either their EDU classification or their annual water usage and sewage strength category. Table 3-4 compares the current FYE 2025 sewer rates with the proposed FYE 2026 through FYE 2030 of the proposed rate case. The entire output from the rate model showing all steps in the rate case is contained in Appendix A to this Study. Individual years are not revised and reduced or increased exactly because of the use of reserves and rates are never reduced. The goal was to keep increasing the commercial rates with the proportionality correct in FY2030. The final FY2030 rates were within 4% of the calculated proportionality for all commercial classes. Table 3-4: Proposed Percentage Increases in Rates Page 232 of 252 Section 3 – Wastewater Rate Study 3-8 Table 3-5: Comparison of Current Versus Proposed Sewer User Rates As discussed earlier in this report, the majority of the revenue requirement recovered by the City’s sewer service charges go to pay for cost associated with charge from San Diego Metro. Figure 3-4 summarizes the major components of the proposed FY 2026 monthly single-family sewer service charge of $52.72 per EDU. This figure also shows the use of City reserves to cover City CIP costs: Figure 3-4 Components of FY 2026 Single Family Monthly Rate Page 233 of 252 Section 3 – Wastewater Rate Study 3-9 Figure 3-5 summarizes all San Diego Metro Member Agencies comparative sewer user rates based on 7 HCF of water usage/sewer flow and a residential monthly base fee. It should be noted that the rates shown are those effective January 1, 2025 based upon readily available information. The figure also includes the City’s current monthly rate as well as the proposed FY 2026 rate of $52.72 per EDU per month. The City’s first proposed rate adjustment will not begin until July 1, 2025. Many agencies are in the process of updating their current rate cases. Even with the proposed 5-year rate adjustments National City will still enjoy some of the lowest rates among the users of the San Diego Metro System. The proposed FY 2026 single family rate will be as low as $52.72 which is 15% lower than the existing (FY 2025) average Metro member agency rate of $62.21.

Page 247 of 252 AGENDA REPORT Department: Community Development Prepared by: Martin Reeder, AICP – Asst. Director of Community Development Meeting Date: Tuesday, May 6, 2025 Approved by: Scott W. Huth, Interim City Manager SUBJECT: Update on the Development of Accessory Dwelling Units RECOMMENDATION: File the report BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION: Not Applicable. EXPLANATION: The City adopted an Ordinance regulating Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) and Junior Accessory Dwelling Unit (JADU) development in 2021. The purpose of the Ordinance was to provide for the construction of ADUs in areas zoned to allow residential uses pursuant to Government Code Section 65852.2 related to addressing the state’s housing crisis. In addition to being compliant with state code, ADUs help advance the goals and policies of the city's housing element related to affordability, neighborhood preservation , housing choice, and income preservation. ADU production In the years 2022, 2023, and 2024, 10, 23, and 22 ADUs (including JADUs) were produced, although 108 permits were issued. 108 issued permits would be an average of 36 ADUs per year. Planning Division records show over 200 projects related to ADU deed restrictions. However, the discrepancy is likely due to projects that are still in review. The 108 units were reported in the City’s Annual Progress Reports (APR), which inform the state of the City’s p rogress in meeting its Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) commitments. In 2023, the City received a SANDAG technical assistant grant for the production of an ADU Handbook, which was published in March 2024. The handbook has been a useful tool for both the public and for staff to understand and implement the City’s ADU program. The Handbook is published on the City’s website1 and includes all information needed by prospective homeowners and developers, including utilities, fire protection, parking, design, and permit processing. State Bills There were many new bills introduced in 2024, as noted below, all of which are mandatory. The City may be more permissive than the State on ADUs. All new laws from 2024 are addressed in the updated ADU Handbook from January 2025. 1 https://www.nationalcityca.gov/home/showpublisheddocument/33455/638603728477570000 Page 248 of 252  SB 1211: Increases the number of detached ADUs that can be approved ministerially in multifamily residential projects. o Allows up to eight detached ADUs on a lot with an existing multifamily dwelling. o Allows up to two detached ADUs on a lot with a proposed multifamily dwelling.  AB 2533: Addresses unpermitted ADUs built before January 1, 2020, allowing them to be legalized. o Prohibits local agencies from penalizing applicants for having unpermitted ADUs. o Requires local agencies to app rove necessary permits to correct noncompliance with health and safety standards.  SB 1077: o Streamlines the permitting process for ADUs in coastal zones.  AB 1332: o Imposes additional obligations on local agencies to accelerate ADU approvals and reduce bureaucratic barriers. o Requires local agencies to establish a preapproval program for ADU plans. o Requires agencies to publish pre -approved ADU plans online. o Requires agencies to recognize and post plans pre -approved by other local or state agencies.  AB 434: Requires all California cities and municipalities to have a pre -approved ADU plan scheme in place by January 1, 2025.  AB 976: Removes the requirement that homeowners looking to rent out their ADU or their single-family home must live on the proper ty.  SB 684: Makes it easier to divide up large parcels of land for modest clusters of townhomes and cottages, but only in areas already zoned for multifamily housing.  SB 1037: Cracks down on local governments that block or delay approved housing, imposing penalties up to $50,000 per month, with funds going towards affordable housing.  AB 2221: Streamlines California ADU law, facilitating easier construction, especially in unused commercial spaces. o Allows builders to seamlessly propose and constru ct ADUs in new multifamily housing plans. o Reduces arbitrary decisions blocking ADU construction.  SB 1123: Requires local agencies to ministerially approve the subdivision of vacant, single - family lots to allow for up to ten units, as specified. There are also pending bills for 2025, not yet approved. Because the state’s legislative session has not yet ended, some of these pending bills may change or be deleted. A final list of adopted bills is usually published in the Spring.  SB 79: Allows multi-family homes near transit. o Not ADU-specific, but multi-family properties can yield more ADUs than single-family properties.  AB 253: Allows for third party permit review for residential projects, which could include ADUs. Page 249 of 252  AB 1308: Allows for third party inspections for residential projects, which could include ADUs.  AB 1154: Clarifies existing language related to JADUs and small ADUs. Challenges ADU production has proven to be of great benefit to the region in the realm of housing production, especially by providing housing without the cost of acquiring new land, dedicated parking, and costly infrastructure. However, it has not been without its do wnside. Other cities in San Diego County have received significant pushback on their regulations, the City of San Diego in particular. San Diego’s ADU Bonus Program (2021) allows a property owner to build a second “bonus” unit if they agree to construct an ADU and restrict the rent to an affordable level. The program also allows for a maximum of five units on one property in areas not served by public transit. In transit priority areas, the number can be even higher. The City of Chula Vista voted late last year to not increase the number of allowable ADUs in the City. A consideration to allow up to two detached ADUs with a cap of four total units was rejected by both their Planning Commission and City Council.2 In researching other issues in the state related to ADUs, there are some references to concerns over parking, but most of the news articles on ADUs in California have a positive tone. Outliers are the coastal communities due to the views (Laguna Beach) and outright disdain (Huntington Beach). There were also concerns raised about areas with wildfire risk a few years ago, but not recently.

Huth, Interim City Manager SUBJECT: City Manager Executive Recruitment RECOMMENDATION: Retain an Executive Recruitment Firm for City Manager Recruitment BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION: Not Applicable. EXPLANATION: On April 18, 2025, the City Council and City Manager Ben Martinez mutually agreed that Mr. Martinez would step down from his role, effective immediately, thereby creating a vacancy in the position of City Manager. Subsequently, on April 22, 2025, the City Council approved the appointment of Scott Huth as Interim City Manager. The position of City Manager plays a critical role in leading the city's administrative operations, executing the vision of the City Council, and serving as the primary liaison between city staff and the community. Given the significance of this role, it is essential that the recruitment process is thorough, timely, and attracts individuals with the requisite experience, leadership qualities, and values aligned with our community's goals. City staff now seeks direction regarding the process to permanently fill the City Manager position. Engaging an executive recruitment firm is a common practice, with typical costs ranging from $25,000 to $60,000. The average timeline to complete a City Manager recruitment is approximately three to six months. The first option is for the Human Resources Department to manage the recruitment process internally. The second option is to engage an external executive search firm to conduct a nationwide search for the next City Manager. Executive recruitment services typically include the development of a comprehensive position profile—informed by input from City Councilmembers—followed by targeted advertising, outreach, and screening of candidates. The process also involves coordinating structured interviews and conducting thorough reference checks for top finalists before presenting candidates for Council consideration. Page 251 of 252 FINANCIAL STATEMENT: The estimated fiscal impact of engaging an executive recruitment firm is expected to range between $25,000 and $60,000. A specific budget appropriation will be identified upon the selection of a service provider.
