Staff Report: Investment Report for the quarter ended September 30, 2019.
BACKGROUND
The California Government Code (§53646(b)) requires that, when the treasurer or the chief fiscal
officer of a local agency renders to the legislative body of the agency a quarterly report on the
agency's investment portfolio, such report shall include the following information regarding all
securities, investments, and moneys held by the local agency:
➢ type of investment;
➢ issuer (bank or institution);
➢ date of maturity;
➢ dollar amount invested; and
➢ current market valuation as of the date of the report.
In addition, the Government Code (§53646(b)(2)) requires that the report state the City's
compliance with its investment policy and include a statement regarding the ability of the local
agency to meet its pool's ability to meet its expenditure requirements Code (§53646(b)(3)).
OVERVIEW OF CITY INVESTMENTS
The City's pooled investment portfolio balance as of September 30, 2019 is summarized below
and compared to the balance as of September 30, 2018.

The County of San Diego Pooled Money Fund and Chandler Asset Management comprise
89.49% of the City of National City's total investment portfolio (50.57% and 38.92%,
respectively). These are liquid investment pools that allow participants to earn market rate
returns, while retaining access to funds within 24 to 48 hours of a withdrawal request with no

penalty. The remainder of the City's portfolio is composed of investments that may be
liquidated at any time. However, these investments likely do not provide the short liquidity (i.e.,
quick access to funds) of the pooled money funds, and liquidation/withdrawal of these
investments is at the risk of loss and/or penalty to the City.
Summaries of the City's investment portfolio are illustrated below.

STAFF REPORT
The purpose of this public hearing is to adopt ordinances for the 2019 California Fire
Code; the 2019 California Building Code; the 2019 California Electrical code and 2017
National Electrical Code; the 2019 California Energy Code; Appendix J of the 2019
California Building Code, and Amending Chapter 15.70 (Grading) of the National City
Municipal Code; the 2019 California Green Code; the 2019 California Mechanical Code;
the 2019 California Plumbing Code; and the 2019 California Residential Code and all
Appendices related to these Codes. Adoption of these model codes by reference is
authorized by Government Code Sections 50022.2 through 50022.4, and Section 6066.
State law requires that the City of National City adopt the same model codes as the State
of California and limit technical amendments to those necessitated due to local
topographical, geographical, or climatic conditions. Specific findings regarding local
technical amendments must be made by the local jurisdiction and filed with the
Department of Housing and Community Development. State law does not restrict local
amendments to the administrative provisions of the codes. In order to simplify
construction in National City, staff is recommending that the model codes be adopted with
minimal revisions.
The ordinances introducing each of these uniform codes are combined into one item on
this agenda. Those agenda items contain an explanation of each ordinance.

of this ordinance shall be filed with the Office of the State Fire Marshal and the State Building
Standards Commission. This action is taken pursuant to Health and Safety Code sections
17958.7 and 18941.5.

AGENDA ITEM NO.
ITEM TITLE: Public Hearing and Adoption of a Resolution of the City Council of the City of National City,
approving a General Plan Amendment for the rezoning of property located at 2443 "N" Avenue from Large
Lot Residential (RS-1) to Institutional (I). (Applicant: International Community Foundation) (Case File No.

PREPARED BY:
Martin Reeder, AICP
PHONE: ;619-336-4313
EXPLANATION:
The applicant is proposing to change the zoning of an existing single family lot from Le Lot Residential
(RS-1) to Institutional (I), in order to merge the lot with an adjacent Institutionally -zoned property directly to the
south. Both properties are part of the International Community Foundation campus, which includes Olivewood
Gardens and Learning Center. The zone change and subsequent merging of the properties would alleviate
an existing conformance issue with an existing garage. This type of change also requires a General Plan
Amendment, to change the land use from Low -Medium Density Residential to Institutional, in order for the
Zone Change to occur. The Zone Change is addressed in a separate item.
DEPARTMENT: Planning Division.
APPROVED BY:
The Planning Commission held a public hearing on August 19, 2019 on the proposed Amendment and
Zone Change and recommended approval. The attached background report describes the project in detail.

BACKGROUND REPORT
Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends approval of the proposed General Plan Amendment and Zone
Change. The proposed development meets five General Plan Policies related to Open
Space and one to Land Use, and would remedy an existing land use conformance issue.
Executive Summary
The applicant is proposing to change the zoning of an existing single-family lot — from
Large Lot Residential (RS-1) to Institutional (I) — In order to merge the lot with an adjacent
Institutionally -zoned property directly to the south. Both properties are part of the
International Community Foundation campus, which includes Olivewood Gardens and
Learning Center. The zone change and subsequent merging of the properties would
alleviate an existing conformance issue with an existing garage.
Planning Commission Action
The Planning Commission conducted a public hearing on August 19, 2019 on the
proposed General Plan Amendment and Zone Change. Five area residents spoke with
concerns related to potential development, parking, and privacy. Commissioners asked
questions in regards to future plans, parking, and property access. The Commission
ultimately voted to recommend approval of the General Plan Amendment and Zone
Change based on findings presented to the Commission (see attached findings).
Staff was also contacted by a neighboring property owner, in response to the public
notice for the Planning Commission hearing, who had privacy concerns over the potential
increased use of the access easement over 2441 "N" Avenue. While it was explained that
no construction was proposed at this time, staff has included conditions requiring
screening of future parking spaces that face neighboring properties.
The applicant has reached out to neighboring residents since the Planning Commission
to address potential concerns related to future use of the property.
History
The campus was established through a Specific Plan in 2006/2007. The original plan
had a two-phase approach. Phase one included remodeling existing structures and
adding a parking lot, which has since been completed. The second phase included
expansion of the existing pool house by 450 square feet, construction of a 3,500
square -foot meeting facility, and construction of a 1,200 square -foot single -story office
space located at the rear of the property in place of the current swimming pool.
ATTACHMENT 1

162 of 334
The Specific Plan was processed in conjunction with a General Plan Amendment and
Zone Change, which changed the two properties south of the project site to IP-PD
(Private Institutional — Planned Development), the zone that pre -dated the current
Institutional zoning. The International Community Foundation for Cross Border
Philanthropy ("ICF"), who processed the original zone change, continues to own the
property.
None of the phase two activities have occurred and the specific plan has since been
dissolved by adoption of the 2011/2012 General Plan and Land Use Code. However,
these uses would generally be permissible under the current Institutional zoning.
The Planning Commission initiated the current General Plan Amendment and Zone
Change in 2015.
Site Characteristics
The project site is a one -acre parcel located north of Olivewood Gardens and Learning
Center, which is located at 2505 and 2525 "N" Avenue. The property was originally
developed with a single-family house and a garage. The house has since been
demolished, although the garage remains. The lot is set back from "N" Avenue and is
accessed via a 20-foot wide driveway across the single-family property adjacent to the
west (2441 "N" Avenue).
The ICF campus is located on an historic 6.85-acre property. The primary use
(Olivewood Gardens and Learning Center) serves as an interactive indoor -outdoor
classroom for children and adults from around San Diego County. Olivewood Gardens
provides science -based environmental education lessons, hands-on gardening, and
hands-on cooking to students and families from underserved communities. The campus
is also home to the International Community Foundation main office.
With the exception of the ICF campus, the area is developed with single-family homes in
the Large Lot Residential zone (RS-1) to the north, and Small Lot Residential zone (RS-
2) across "N" Avenue to the west.
Proposal
The applicant wishes to change the zoning designation of the subject property from Large
Lot Residential (RS-1) to Institutional (I) in order to alleviate the existing code
conformance issue with the garage. The issue is due to the garage (an accessory use)
existing on what is still a residentially -zoned property without a primary use (residence).
The garage is currently used as a storage structure for the ICF campus. Merging of the
lots would alleviate the code violation. However, the property would then be split by a
2
163 of 334
zone boundary, which necessitates the zone change. The merger is a housecleaning
activity by the applicant. No construction is proposed at this time.
In order to change the zone, the land use designation would need to be changed from
Low -Medium Density Residential to Institutional. Although they are no longer proposing
an expansion of the campus, the applicant originally purchased the subject property north
of Olivewood Gardens several years ago with the intention of eventually expanding the
campus by moving the existing house at 2505 "N" Avenue (currently an office) to the
south side of the lot and expanding the existing parking lot from 14 spaces to 61 spaces.
Additional offices were also part of the proposed campus expansion. However, no
expansion is proposed at this time and the property will remain in its current state. Any
future expansion would need to comply with the design guidelines specified in the Land
Use Code related to construction in the Institutional zone.
Analysis
There are several General Plan Policies that are pertinent to this proposal. Specifically:
• Policy OS-3.1: Allow for community and private gardens as areas where
residents can plant and grow fruit and vegetables and ornamental gardens that
can be a source of pride and beauty in the neighborhood.
• Policy OS-3.2: Encourage the development of community gardens in
conjunction with school sites as an educational resource.
® Policy OS-3.3: Encourage the development of unused land such as portions of
parks and utility right of ways to be converted to productive space for growing
food.
® Policy OS-3.4: Support private and institutional gardens and explore additional
opportunities for partnerships and collaboration.
• Policy OS-3.14: Increase public knowledge aboutfood and food systems from
the production process to disposal.
The current use (ICF) is currently consistent with and implements these General Plan
policies. Expansion of this use will continue to meet the intent of these policies. In
addition, development of the currently vacant parcel will be consistent with Land Use
Policy LU 4.3, which states the following:
• Policy LU 4.3: Promote infill development, redevelopment, rehabilitation, and
reuse efforts that contribute positively to existing neighborhoods and surrounding
areas.

164 of 334
Land Use Code
The purpose of the institutional (I) zone is to provide for a wide range of institutional
and accessory uses including public, quasi -public, and private facilities that address
health, safety, educational, cultural, and welfare needs of the community and
neighborhoods. Allowed uses include educational facilities, government offices and
courts, community centers, libraries, museums and cultural centers, hospitals and
medical centers, retirement communities, public safety facilities (i.e., fire and police
stations), neighborhood gardens and community farms, public utilities, and similar
uses. The existing and proposed use of the property conforms to this definition.
As previously mentioned, ICF originally proposed to move their office (former house at
2505 "N" Avenue) further south and expand the existing parking lot from 14 spaces to 61
spaces. While this is not currently anticipated, conditions have been added regarding the
eventual design. These are related to fire access and required buffer between the parking
area and residential properties.
Additional offices were also part of the proposed campus expansion considered under the
original Phase 2 (e.g. meeting center, additional offices). However, those activities would
not be part of proposed construction on the subject lot, although they are shown on the
concept plan. Conditions also address compliance with relevant Municipal Code
requirements for future activities associated with any phase 2 activities (e.g. distance from
residential uses, compliance with noise standards, etc.).
Applicable design guidelines stated in the Land Use Code for the Institutional zone are as
follows:
Front yard setback: 10 feet
Interior side yard setback: 25 feet (same as adjacent [rear] setback in RS-1 zone)
Rear yard setback: 5 feet
Maximum building height: 65 ft. or 5 stories (35 ft. within 100 ft. of residential zone)
Floor area ratio: 3.0
Because the subject property does not have any street frontage, the north and west
property lines are considered interior side and thus subject to the adjacent residential
setback for new construction, which is 25 feet in this case. While a parking lot may be
constructed closer than 25 feet, a minimum 10-foot buffer would be required. Conditions
include requiring this buffer, as well as landscaping to screen any future parking area
from adjacent residential uses.

165 of 334
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)
In September 2007, the City prepared an initial study and a negative declaration
(IS/ND) under CEQA for the specific plan. On November 26, 2007 the City adopted the
IS/ND (see Attachment 7) and approved the project. CEQA Guidelines section 15164
authorizes the lead agency to prepare an addendum to the previously approved
negative declaration, provided that no substantial changes are made. Staff prepared
such an addendum and found that the modified project would not result in any new or
substantially more significant impacts than those examined in the previous IS/ND.
Furthermore, there is no new information and there are no changed conditions that
would result in any new or substantially more significant impacts than those examined
in the IS/ND. Moreover, potential changes to parking capacity would result in an
improved result than originally concluded by the 2007 Initial Study checklist.
Comments/Conditions
Comments were received from the Fire Department regarding fire access consistent with
the California Fire Code. These comments have been included as conditions of approval,
as well as standard conditions for compliance with applicable Building Division and
Engineering Department regulations.
Planning Department conditions include requiring the merger of the two properties in to
one, compliance with noise regulations, and location of future development away from
adjacent residential use. In addition, there is a condition requiring that all future
development provide adequate onsite parking.
Summary
The subject property is currently vacant, with the exception of a garage (an accessory
use), which is not permitted on a lot without a primary use. Because the property is zoned
RS-1, a house must exist on the lot in order for the garage to continue to exist unless the
zoning is changed. The Institutional zoning and subsequent merging of the properties
would allow-- the - garage - to stay as - an - accessory --structure and alleviate the non-
conforming issue.
The property is adjacent to an existing and established institutional use which would
benefit from the addition of property in order to meet its long-term goals of expansion.
The proposed re -zone would contribute to a development that would be consistent with
several General Plan policies and would increase the ability of Olivewood Gardens to
serve the community.

Addendum to the Initial Study and Negative Declaration for the
International Community Foundation Specific Plan
Introduction
In September 2007, the City of National City ("City") prepared an initial study and a
negative declaration ("IS/ND") under the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA")
for a specific plan, on the properties located at 2505 and 2525 "N" Avenue, for the
operations campus for the International Community Foundation ("ICF").
On November 26, 2007 the City adopted the IS/ND (part of Attachment 7) and approved
the project, and the developer began limited construction activities. Under the adopted
IS/ND, land use entitlements for the project included, but were not limited to, the
following:
Phase 1 consisted of the conversion of a 1,200 square -foot residence at 2505 "N" Avenue
to office space, construction of a parking lot, and installation of landscaping, use of the
3,400 square -foot Oliver Noyes residence, and use of the pool house for meeting space.
The property originally had eight parking stalls located around the existing circle drive on
the 2525 "N" Avenue site.
Phase 2 consisted of the remodel of a 780 square -foot pool house into office space,
with a potential expansion of 450 additional square feet. Also proposed was
construction of a 3,500 square foot, ADA-compliant meeting facility that would provide
seating for up to a maximum of 75 individuals and include handicapped accessible
bathrooms, a kitchen, a projection screen, wireless access, and an outdoor balcony.
Lastly, construction of a 1,200 square -foot, single -story office space located at the rear
of the project in place of the current swimming pool, was proposed.
Phase 1 has been completed. With the exception of the use of the pool house as an
office, no Phase 2 activities were completed. The owner of the property has since
acquired a residential property, which borders the easterly 475 feet of the north property
line of the ICF campus, and wishes to merge the two together. The new lot was
originally developed with a single-family residence (since demolished) and a garage.
The garage still remains and is used for storage. Access to the property is through a 20-
foot wide access easement across the residential property to the west (2441 "N"
Avenue). No change in use of the property is proposed at this time, although it is
intended to be the location of a future parking lot.
Applicability and Use of an Addendum
Under CEQA, lead agencies must conduct an evaluation of proposed changes to a
project in order to determine whether further environmental analysis is required. (Pub.
Resources Code § 21166; CEQA Guidelines, § 15162.) Once a negative declaration
ATTACHMENT 7
18
179 of 334
has been completed for a project, a lead agency may not require preparation of a
subsequent environmental review unless the conditions set forth in Public Resources
Code section 21166 and CEQA Guidelines section 15162 are satisfied.
CEQA Guidelines section 15162 states that:
(a) When an EIR has been certified or a negative declaration adopted for a
project, no subsequent EIR shall be prepared for that project unless the lead
agency determines, on the basis of substantial evidence in the light of the whole
record, one or more of the following:
(1) Substantial changes are proposed in the project which will require
major revisions of the previous EIR or negative declaration due to the
involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial
increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects;
(2) Substantial changes occur with respect to the circumstances under
which the project is undertaken which will require major revisions of the
previous EIR or negative declaration due to the involvement of new
significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of
previously identified significant effects; or
(3) New information of substantial importance, which was not known and
could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at
the time the previous EIR was certified as complete or the negative
declaration was adopted, shows any of the following:
(A) The project will have one or more significant effects not
discussed in the previous EIR or negative declaration;
(B) Significant effects previously examined will be substantially
more severe than shown in the previous EIR;
(C)-Mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to be
feasible would in fact be feasible and would substantially reduce
one or more significant effects of the project, but the project
proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative;
or
(D) Mitigation measures or alternatives which are considerably
different from those analyzed in the previous EIR would
substantially reduce one or more significant effects on the
environment, but the project proponents decline to adopt the
mitigation measure or alternative.
19
180 of 334
(b) If changes to a project or its circumstances occur or new information
becomes available after adoption of a negative declaration, the lead agency shall
prepare a subsequent EIR if required under subdivision (a). Otherwise the lead
agency shall determine whether to prepare a subsequent negative declaration,
an addendum, or no further documentation.
(c) Once a project has been approved, the lead agency's role in project approval
is completed, unless further discretionary approval on that project is required.
Information appearing after an approval does not require reopening of that
approval. If after the project is approved, any of the conditions described in
subdivision (a) occurs, a subsequent EIR or negative declaration shall only be
prepared by the public agency which grants the next discretionary approval for
the project, if any. In this situation no other responsible agency shall grant an
approval for the project until the subsequent EIR has been certified or
subsequent negative declaration adopted.
If none of the conditions set forth in CEQA Guidelines section 15162(b) allowing a lead
agency to prepare a subsequent negative declaration are met, CEQA Guidelines
section 15164 authorizes the lead agency to prepare an addendum to the previously
approved negative declaration. In relevant part, CEQA Guidelines section 15164 states:
(b) An addendum to an adopted negative declaration may be prepared if only
minor technical changes or additions are necessary or none of the conditions
described in section 15162 calling for the preparation of a subsequent EIR. or
negative declaration have occurred.
Under the instant circumstances, no substantial changes are being made to the
proposed project. Phase 2 of the project will be completed using substantially the same
site plan that was reviewed in the approved IS/ND. Therefore, the physical effects on
the environment as a whole are the same. The developer is solely proposing to add
visitor parking spaces on site that would have otherwise been secured elsewhere and
those -visitors bused into the property. This would also alleviate street parking currently
occurring in the neighboring area, which would now be located on site instead.
Institutional uses, including visitor parking, were contemplated under the original IS/ND.
Based on these circumstances, the modified project does not trigger any of the
circumstances that would require preparation of a subsequent EIR or negative
declaration under Public Resources Code section 21166 or CEQA Guidelines section
15162, as further set forth in this Addendum.
Description of the Proposed Project:
The description of the project remains the same as that described on Pages 1 and 2 of
the attached IS/ND. While no construction is expected at this time, the developer is
20
181 of 334
expecting to construct the approved Phase 2 improvements proposed in Case File No.
2007- 16 GP, ZC, SP, IS in the future as funds allow. The only change in the meantime
is to merge the adjacent property to the north. The original conditions of approval
required adequate off -site parking to be provided to cover an events occurring on site.
The applicant would eventually like to have this parking provided on -site. This would be
consistent with the spirit and intent of the Land Use Code, which requires that all
permanent uses provide adequate on -site parking. Conditions of approval for this
project require that all Land Use Code requirements for parking lots (e.g. buffers from
residential uses, landscaping, lighting, etc.) be met at such time as the parking lot is
built.
Environmental Impacts Associated with the Modified Project:
Changed Conditions
Because the elements of the project will remain the same as the project previously
examined in the attached IS/ND, with the exception of merging the adjacent property
and creating a parking lot, all indirect project impacts would remain the same as those
identified in attached IS/ND in the absence of any changed conditions in the
environment.
The traffic analysis conducted in 2007 and included in the Initial Study for the original
project, the project was expected to result in approximately 142 average daily trips, an
increase of 118 ADT above the current use at that time. With such a low increase in
trips, a full traffic study was not warranted and study segments would be expected to
continue to operate under capacity and the existing roadways to adequately serve the
project. This has been the case, especially since only Phase 1 entitlements were
completed.
Based on its review of the modified project and its familiarity with the project
environment, the City has determined that the environment in the project location has
not changed in a way that would result in previously unexamined environmental impacts
from the project or an increase in the severity of any of the previously examined
environmental impacts. In fact, addition of parking would reduce the impact concluded
by subsection (f) of Section XV. (TRANSPORTATION/TRAFFIC) from "Less than
significant impact" to "no impact" in that there would no longer be inadequate parking
capacity.
New Information
Based on its review of the modified project and its familiarity with the project
environment, the City has determined that there is not any new information that was not
available at the time of the previous IS/ND that would show that the project may have
new or previously unexamined significant impacts on the environment.
21
182 of 334
Cumulative Impacts
Based on its review of the modified project and its familiarity with the project
environment, the City has determined that there is not any new information that was not
available at the time of the previous IS/ND that would show that the project may have
new or increased cumulative impacts on the environment.
Conclusions:
The modified project would not result in any new or substantially more significant
impacts than those examined in the IS/ND. Furthermore, there is no new information
and there are no changed conditions that would result in any new or substantially more
significant impacts than those examined in the IS/ND. Moreover changes to parking
capacity result in an improved result than originally concluded in Initial Study 2007-16
IS, as discussed above.

7. PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The International Community Foundation (ICF), a non-profit
philanthropic organization, has submitted an application for a Specific Plan, General Plan Amendment, and
Zone Change. A General Plan Amendment and Zone Change are required to rezone the property from single-
family residential, RS-1, to Private Institutional Use, IP-PD.
The project involves two parcels located at 2505 and 2525 N Avenue, each containing a single-family residence,
one of which is known as the historic Oliver Noyes residence at 2525 N Avenue. The property was donated to
ICF with the stipulation that they preserve the historic integrity of the Oliver Noyes residence and the grounds.
The property at 2505 N Avenue (Parcel #: 563-040-11) covers 2.28 acres and includes a single -story 2-
bedroom home. The applicant proposes to convert this residence into offices and construct a 14-space parking
lot to conduct fundraising and volunteerism activities. The adjacent 3,400 square foot Oliver Noyes House at
2525 N Avenue (APN #563-150-29) contains 4 bedrooms, and is proposed by the applicant to be used for
23
184 of 334
Initial Study - Page 2 of 18
meetings, receptions, and accommodations for occasional visiting donors and guests. This parcel also includes an
outdoor pool, pool house, and expansive gardens (including a '/z acre working organic garden) with acreage
totaling 4.57 acres. The 780-square-foot pool house sits on the easternmost section of the property overlooking
the municipal golf course and is proposed as meeting space initially, and to eventually be converted it to office
space as well. In addition, the application involves future phases that include constructing a 1,200 square foot
office building and a 3,500 square foot meeting facility.
ICF currently has a staff of 6 people who would be utilizing the office space and a maintenance staff of 3 who
would maintain the buildings and gardens. Board meetings would be held every other month for approximately
one to two hours with approximately 9 — 12 attendees. Once or twice per year ICF may host outdoor receptions
that may include up to 100 individuals. A Temporary Use Permit (TUP) would be obtained prior to special
events. Off -site parking would be secured for each event in order to minimize the impact on the neighborhood,
and would be identified in the TUP.
The operation of the facility is proposed in two phases. Phase 1 will consist of converting the 1,200 square foot
residence at 2505 N Avenue to office space, construction of the parking lot and installation of landscaping, use
of the 3,400 square foot Oliver Noyes residence, and use of the pool house for meeting space. The property
currently has 8 parking stalls located around the existing circle drive on the 2525 N Avenue site. Phase 1
expansion includes construction of 14 additional parking stalls on the 2505 N Avenue site to accommodate
board members and visiting guests. Along with the parking expansion on this parcel, landscaping would be
enhanced. No modifications to the Oliver Noyes residence are proposed other than regular maintenance.
Phase 2 will consist of a remodel of the 780 square foot pool house into office space, with a potential expansion
of 450 additional square feet. Also proposed is construction of a 3,500 square foot, ADA compliant meeting
facility that would provide seating for up to a maximum of 75 individuals and include handicapped accessible
bathrooms, a kitchen, a projection screen, wireless access, and an outdoor balcony. Lastly, construction of a
1,200 square foot, single -story office space located at the rear of the project in place of the current swimming
pool, has been proposed.
The architectural design of each new structure of Phase 2 would occur prior to its construction and would
require review and approval of the City through the Planned Development permit process (Municipal Code
Chapter 18.116).
SITE DESCRIPTION: The Specific Plan area includes two parcels comprised of approximately 6.85
acres located on the east side of the N Avenue and 24th Street intersection and west and adjacent to the National
City Golf Course. Surrounding uses include the National City Municipal Golf Course to the east and south, and
single-family housing to the north and west. The terrain consists of a relatively level area in the northwestern
one third of the site and then slopes steeply down approximately 75 feet on the east and south perimeters,
adjacent to the golf course below. All development would occur within the level areas of the project site, within
the area previously disturbed. No development is proposed on the slopes.

I find that the proposed project COULD NOT have a significant effect on the environment, and a
NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared.
I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, there
will not be a significant effect in this case because the mitigation measures described on an attached
sheet have been added to the project. A MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared.
I find that the proposed project MAY have a significant effect on the environment, and an
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required.
I find that the proposed project MAY have a significant effect(s) on the environment, but at least
one effect (1) has been adequately analyzed in an earlier document pursuant to applicable legal
standards, and (2) has been addressed by mitigation measures based on the earlier analysis as
described on attached sheets, if the effect is a "potentially significant impact" or is "potentially
significant unless mitigated." An ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required, but it must
analyze only the effect that remains to be addressed.

Title: Associate Planner
EVALUATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS:
I. A brief explanation is required for all answers except "No Impact" answers that are adequately supported by
the information sources a lead agency cites in the parentheses following each question. A "No Impact"
answer is adequately supported if the referenced information sources show that the impact simply does not
apply to the project. A "No Impact" answer should be explained where it is based on project -specific factors
as well as general standards.
2. All answers must take account of the whole action involved. Answers should address off -site as well as on -
site, cumulative as well as project -level, indirect as well as direct, and construction as well as operational
impacts.
3. Once the lead agency has determined that a particular physical impact may occur, then the checklist
answers must indicate whether the impact is potentially significant, less than significant with mitigation, or
less than significant. "Potentially Significant Impact" is appropriate if there is substantial evidence than an
25
186 of 334
Initial Study - Page 4 of 18
effect may be significant. If there are one or more "Potentially Significant Impact" entries when the
determination is made, an EIR is required.
4. "Negative Declaration: Less than Significant w/ Mitigation Incorporated" applied where the incorporation of
a mitigation measure has reduced an effect from "Potentially Significant Impact" to "Less then Significant
Impact". The lead agency must describe the mitigation measures, and briefly explain how they reduce the
effect to a less than significant level.
5. Earlier analyses may be used where, pursuant to the tiering, program EIR, or other CEQA process, an effect
has been adequately analyzed in an earlier EIR or negative declaration. Section 15063(c) (3) (D).
6. Lead agencies are encouraged to incorporate into the checklist references to information sources for
potential impacts (e.g. general plans, zoning ordinances). References to a previously prepared or outside
document should, where appropriate, include a reference to the page or pages where the statement is
substantiated.
7. Supporting Information Sources: A source list should be attached, and other sources used or individuals

There are no designated scenic vistas nearby or across the proposed project site. As such, no vistas would be
adversely impacted by the proposed project. Also, while there are a handful of private parcels adjacent to
site on the west whose views could be altered by the proposal, the City does not have a policy to protect
private views.
The proposal does include a property on the National City Historical Properties List, the Oliver Noyes House.
The intent of the Specific Plan is to allow for the conversion and re -use of the property in question, while
promoting the long-term preservation and maintenance of the historic house and its adjoining gardens and

open space.
To make certain the visual character and quality of the site is maintained, the project includes several
measures that ensure the project would not have substantial adverse effects on the community. The
measures include: interior renovation and use of the existing structures on the site, positioning the proposed
parking lot approximately 55 feet from the street with additional landscaping to screen it from N Avenue,
locating the proposed meeting facility approximately 145 feet from the street, the proposed design of the
meeting facility would be a "low lying structure that will blend in with the surrounding landscape" and use
materials that complement the character of existing buildings on -site, and placing the only other new
structure proposed on an existing swimming pool site which is not visible from the street.
City ordinances require commercial uses to provide lighting for pedestrians and parking. Lighting proposed
for the project would consist of accent lighting along the walkways and the parking lot. All fixtures would
be shielded to eliminate spillage onto neighboring properties and public rights -of -way. Therefore, there
would not be an impact on adjacent residential properties.
II. AGRICULTURE RESOURCES --
In determining whether impacts to agricultural resources are
significant environmental effects, lead agencies may refer to
the California Agricultural Land Evaluation & Site Assessment
Model (1997) prepared by the California Dept. of
Conservation as an optional model to use in assessing impacts
on agriculture and farmland.
Would the project:
a) Convert Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland, or Farmland of
Statewide Importance (Farmland), as shown on the maps
prepared pursuant to the Farmland Mapping and Monitoring
Program of the California Resources Agency, to non-
agricultural use? (Sources: 1, 4)
b) Conflict with existing zoning for agricultural use, or a
Williamson Act contract? (Sources: 1, 4)
c) Involve other changes in the existing environment which, due
to their location or nature, could result in conversion of
Farmland, to non-agricultural use? (Sources: 1, 4)

National City is a primarily built -out community and there is no farmland mapped or planned to be mapped
within the City, or more specifically on the project site. The site is also currently zoned for single-family uses,
and no Williamson Act contract is associated with the land; therefore, the proposed zone change to Private
Institutional zoning and associated Specific Plan on the project site would have no impact on agricultural
zoned areas. Also, the Specific Plan will retain 1/z acre of organic producing gardens that will be used for
education, with the potential to expand the garden to 1 acre in a later phase of the plan.

The County of San Diego is in attainment for all California Clean Air Act (CCAA) pollutants with the exception
of ozone. The proposed Specific Plan includes the renovation and reuse of existing single-family structures and
does not include any future design components that would obstruct the Regional Air Quality Strategy (RAQS)
for San Diego County.

Emissions resulting from developing the site would be directly related to the amount of vehicular traffic
generated by the facility. A traffic analysis dated June 12, 2007, calculated that the project would generate
142 ADT or "low volumes" of traffic, compared to the estimated 24 ADT from the current use. Consequently,
while the proposed project would have an incremental impact to area -wide air -quality resulting from the
cumulative impacts of thousands or sources, the individual impacts attributed to this project are immeasurably
small on a regional scale and will not cause ambient air -quality standards to be exceeded or have a significant
impact on air quality.
As the project primarily includes the use of existing structures on -site with little additional construction and
includes plans to retain an extensive amount of landscaping, gardens, and open space, any impacts from
construction equipment and operations would be minimal and temporary in nature. While dust from grading
and other site preparation would generate particulate matter emission, due to the small amount of grading, and
with appropriate use of grading and operation procedures, the project would not generate significant
particulate matter or dust and would therefore not result in a significant impact.

The proposed project site includes a 6.85 acre site, consisting of two parcels. The southern, larger parcel
includes a house listed on the local National City Historic list (Noyes House) and the fully landscaped gardens
surrounding it. The main residence is situated approximately 90 feet from N Avenue and was constructed on
the higher elevation of the site. The house is surrounded by ornamental gardens along the front and rear and
an organic garden to the south. Terrain on the north side of the Noyes house is relatively flat extending all the
way to a home on the northern lot. The east and south boundaries of the site have steep slopes leading down to
the municipal golf course below. There is no indication of a native habitat on the slopes and the brush there is
periodically cleared for fire management.
Trees most commonly found on the property include canary date palms, jacarandas, pepper trees and citrus
trees. Bushes and flowers on the property include Indian Hawthorn, hibiscus, roses, poppies, budilea, lavender,
guava, trumpet flower, gardenia and jatropha Located on the site is an expansive fig -tree — among the oldest in
San Diego County, which would be preserved.

No indication of sensitive habitat or sensitive species are known to exist on the site, and there is no impact to
sensitive or protected species as defined above. Also, the proposed project site contains no jurisdictional
wetlands or jurisdictional waters of the U.S. or state -defined streambeds; therefore, the project will not impact
protected wetlands. One freshwater emergent wetland is identified within the adjacent golf course property,
according to US Fish and Wildlife information, but will not be impacted by the proposed project, and therefore
there is no significant impact.
The proposed project site contains no known biological resources that are protected by local, state or federal
ordinances or laws, and there are no adopted habitat conservation plans that include the proposed project site.
The property has been the site of two single-family residences since the early 1900's containing a garden and
ornamental vegetation. The proposed use of the property and future development would not impact any
protected biological resources; therefore there is no impact.

ICF received the approximately seven acre project site, including the parcel with the Noyes house and an
adjacent parcel to the north, from the former owner with the goal of establishing a use that would preserve the
site. As such, the proposed Specific Plan overlay was drafted to allow for the conversion and use of the property
for a non-profit institution, while promoting the long-term preservation and maintenance of the historic
house, its adjoining gardens, and open space. With approval of the Specific Plan, the applicant states they will
receive an endowment to maintain and protect the home and gardens long-term.
Originally built in 1896, the Walton residence (otherwise known as the Oliver Noyes House) at 2525 N
Avenue (Parcel #: 563-150-29) is a well preserved Queen Anne Victorian home totaling 3,430 square feet
with 4 bedrooms and 2 1 /2 baths. There are two main floors with a large attic and a semi exposed basement
used as a wine cellar / tool room. The home also has a spacious covered porch on two sides of the house. This
well preserved Victorian home is on the city of National City Historical Property List. The historic residence is
set back approximately 90 feet from N Avenue. There is a gradual incline from the street to the main house
and then the grade remains flat going east to the pool and the pool house. The terrain on the north side of the
residence is relatively flat.
As a site identified on the National City Historic Properties List, any modifications to the Noyes house will be
reviewed with additional scrutiny by the City Building Department and if found to be a significant, alteration
will require additional review by the National City Historic Society and City Council. Should the Council find
that the alteration would result in an adverse effect on the public welfare, the permit may be denied or
withheld until such time as all alternative measures are thoroughly evaluated (Municipal Code 18.139.030).
To further ensure the character and quality of the site is maintained, the Specific Plan was drafted to include
several measures to retain the character of the site and specifically to the Noyes house. Those measure include:
the interior renovation and use of existing structures on the site, upgrading the landscaping on the northern
parcel using plant material consistent with the Noyes lot, a requirement that each of the two proposed new
structures incorporate a design and materials that complement the style and character of the Noyes house,
retaining the existing driveway around the Noyes house, and continuing to maintain the organic garden on the
Noyes property and potentially expand it from 1/2 acre to 1 acre. Future construction within the site will also
require review by the City Planning Commission for consistency. Consequently, no substantial adverse changes
to the Noyes home would occur.
No archaeological resources as defined in Section 15064.5 or unique geologic or paleontological features are
known to exist on the proposed project site. As such, there impacts to archaeological resources or unique
geologic features are anticipated.
No cultural resource constraints are known to exist on the previously developed project site and the project
includes primarily re -use of existing structures. As such, there is a relatively low probability of disturbing any
human remains and therefore, no significant impact. In the event of the accidental discovery or recognition of
any human remains during construction, the applicant shall take all appropriate steps as required by relevant
federal, state, and local laws.

e) Have soils incapable of adequately supporting the use of septic
tanks or alternative waste water disposal systems where sewers

4, 7)
California Geological Survey information indicates the site is not located within an Alquist-Priolo Special
Studies Zone, and there are no known active or potentially active faults that intercept the project site; therefore,
the potential for ground rupture at this site is considered low. The nearest active fault to the site is the Rose
Canyon Fault, located approximately three miles to the west. Accordingly, the site is not considered to possess a
significantly greater seismic risk than that of the surrounding area in general.
X
While the project primarily includes the conversion and reuse of existing structures, two additional structures
are identified as potential Phase 2 construction The Specific Plan_stipulates thata separate discretionary -permit
be pursued for each of these buildings. At that time, a geotechnical investigation will be prepared to determine
if there are conditions that would preclude the development of the property as planned. It should be
recognized that Southern California is an area that is subject to some degree of seismic risk and that it is
generally not considered economically feasible nor technologically practical to build structures that are totally
resistant to earthquake -related hazards. Construction in accordance with the minimum requirements of the
Uniform Building Code should minimize damage due to seismic events.
The proposed project site is currently and would continue to have traditional sewer laterals, which connect
with the existing sewer system that serves the City. There would be no need for the use of septic tanks or
alternative waste water disposal systems; therefore, there would be no impact.

The main component of the proposed project includes the conversion of existing structures on -site and the
expansion of the existing gardens, which would have no significant adverse impact on runoff, groundwater
recharge, or drainage patterns. A new 14-space parking lot is proposed in the first phase of the Specific Plan on
the northern parcel along N Avenue. To reduce potential drainage offsite, the applicant proposes to a
permeable material such as decomposed granite for the majority of their parking lot surface. This type of
material helps maintain the informal garden style repeating throughout the property and is necessary to
maintain the roots of the historic Morton Bay Fig tree along N Avenue.
The proposed project site is located outside the boundaries of both the 100-year and 500-year flood zones, and
would therefore not place housing in a flood zone or add structures that would redirect flood flows. A portion
of the Municipal Golf Course to the east of the project site does lie within a 100-year Flood Hazard Area (Zone
AO); however, the project site sits on the top of a steep slope approximately 75 higher than the valley below
and no impacts as a result of the flood area would occur. Also, the project's use of existing structures would not
increase runoff to the golf course below.
Two new structures are proposed in Phase 2 of the Specific Plan; however, one is proposed on the site of the
existing pool and would therefore not add to the site's impervious surface. The second structure, a 3,500
square foot meeting facility, is proposed on the northern lot in a relatively flat area adjacent to the small home
on the lot. The proposed structures would require additional discretionary review by the City prior to approval
for architectural design elements to ensure consistency with the existing structures on site and the surrounding
community. Any future construction activities would comply with City ordinances regarding stormwater
protection measures and standard construction practices and would therefore create no significant impact

The proposed project involves the use of an existing historic single -fancily site for an institutional use,
including the conversion of another single-family home and accessory structure into office space, as well as
two future structures on -site.
While the subject property is located in an urbanized area, the 6.85 acre site is developed with only two single-
family homes, far below the allowable density in the surrounding neighborhood. Currently, the site is built at a
density of 0.3 dwellings per acre. The existing General Plan/Zoning designation of Single -Family Residential
(RS-1) allows 4.4 dwellings per acre, or approximately 30 detached units on the site.
While additional homes could be developed on the site, the current Single -Family Residential zoning does not
allow for an institutional use. As such, the applicant is concurrently processing a General Plan and Zoning
Map Amendment to change the zoning designation to Private Institutional (IP-PD). Since any new use will be
subject to the Specific Plan and require the granting of a Planned Development Permit, which is in turn subject
to CEQA, the proposed zone change in and of itself will not cause any environmental effects. Also, the proposed
Specific Plan cannot be approved unless the associated zone change occurs as well, either concurrently or prior
to the Specific Plan.
The site is situated between an established single-family neighborhood (Single -Family Residential, RS-1 zone)
and the National City Municipal Golf Course (Civic Institutional zone). As such, changing the site's use and
zoning to Private Institutional would be consistent with the adjacent Civic Institutional Zone. Also, the site is
located on the fringe of the neighborhood and would not divide an established community. Lastly, the objective
of the Specific Plan and the conversion of existing structures on -site is to retain the historical, residential
character of the property and remain compatible with the adjacent neighborhood, resulting in no significant
impact.
The City's General Plan encourages projects which support historic preservation efforts. The proposed Specific
Plan is consistent with this goal, as it mandates the conservation of a home on the City's Historic Properties List
and limits future development on the site while retaining the overall historic character of the site.

The project will comply with requirements of the California Building Codes and City ordinances with regard to
noise for an office/institutional project. The proposed project would be primarily an office development, which
by its nature would not typically generate noise levels in excess of local standards and affect neighboring
properties. Any special activities would require a Temporary Use Permit and the noise generated would be of
limited duration during that temporary time period and would still remain subject to City Noise Ordinance.
While the majority of the project includes interior renovation of existing structure, plans include a new
parking area and two potential new buildings on -site. The associated grading and construction on the project
site would create temporary noise impacts. Modern construction equipment, properly used and maintained,
meet the noise limits contained in the City's Noise Ordinance. All noise generated by the project would be
required to comply with the City's Noise Ordinance. Upon completion of the project, all noise from the project
operations would be required to conform to the City's Noise Ordinance, and because construction noise is
temporary, no significant impact from the project would occur.

XII. POPULATION & HOUSING
Would the project:
a) Induce substantial population growth in an area, either directly
(for example, by proposing new homes and businesses) or
indirectly (for example, through extension of roads or other
infrastructure)? (Sources: 1, 2, 4)
b) Displace substantial number-s-of-existing-housing,—necessitating
the construction of replacement housing elsewhere? (Sources:
1, 2, 4)
c) Displace substantial numbers of people, necessitating the
construction of replacement housing elsewhere? (Sources: 1,
2, 4)
While the conversion of two existing single-family homes into office/institutional use could potentially attract
project employees to the area, the size of the proposed office staff is so small (6-10 persons) that no significant
increase to population within the City would be expected as a result of the proposal. Also, as the project will
only affect two existing, unoccupied, single-family homes, it will not necessitate the construction of
replacement housing. As such, there no impact expected as a result of this project.

The proposed project would not result in adverse impacts to police or fire protection services. The project site
is currently and will continue to be served by the National City Police and Fire Departments. Plans also include
additional elements intended to increase Fire service to the site, including sprinklers in the Pool House building
being converted to office space, a new standpipe at the south driveway on N Avenue, and a new point of
connection for the Fire Department adjacent to the Pool House.
The proposed project would result in no impacts to City schools or parks, as the proposal is an
institutional/office project, which would not be expected to result in additional school children or population
in the area. The project also retains and enhances ample open space and passive recreational amenities on -site,
such as walking paths and gardens, for use by staff and visitors.
XIV. RECREATION
a) Would the project increase the use of existing neighborhood
and regional parks or other recreational facilities such that
substantial physical deterioration of the facility would occur or
be accelerated? (Sources: 2, 4)
b) Does the project include recreational facilities or require the
construction or expansion of recreational facilities which
might have an adverse physical effect on the environment?
(Sources: 2, 4)
The proposed project includes the conversion of two single-family residential properties into office and
meeting facilities to support a non-profit institutional use. The proposed institutional/office use of the project
site would not increase the use of local recreational facilities, necessitate construction of additional recreational
facilities, or remove or impact existing facilities in the surrounding area; therefore, there is no impact.

a) Cause an increase in traffic which is substantial in relation to
the existing traffic load and capacity of the street system (i.e.,
result in a substantial increase in either the number of vehicle
trips, the volume to capacity ratio on roads, or congestion at
intersections)? (Sources: 1, 2, 4, 7)

standard established by the county congestion management
agency for designated roads or highways? (Sources: 1, 2, 4, 7)

increase in traffic levels or a change in location that results in
substantial safety risks? (Sources: 1, 2, 4, 7)
d) Substantially increase hazards due to a design feature (e.g.,
sharp curves or dangerous intersections) or incompatible uses
(e.g., farm equipment)? (Sources: 1, 2, 4, 7)
e) Result in inadequate emergency access? (Sources: 1, 2, 4, 7)
f) Result in inadequate parking capacity? i(Soitrces: 1, 2, 4, 7)
g) Conflict with adopted policies plans, or programs supporting
alternative transportation (e.g., bus turnouts, bicycle racks)?
(Sources: 1, 2, 4, 7)
According to a review of the potential traffic impacts dated June 12, 2007, by the National City Transportation
Engineer, the proposed project would not cause a significant increase in traffic. The traffic analysis states that
the project will result in a approximately 142 average daily trips, an increase of 118 ADT above the current
use. With such a low increase in trips, a full traffic study is not warranted and study segments would be
expected to continue to operate under capacity and the existing roadways will adequately serve the project.
Project plans include retaining the use of the existing one-way driveway on the south parcel (2525 N Avenue),
which includes an entrance from 24th Street on the north side of the house and exit on the south side. Plans
also include the construction of a 14-lot parking area on the north parcel that would be accessed from the
existing driveway entrance and have a second exit on the north end of the lot. The new private driveways
proposed within the site will be designed in accordance with private road standards acceptable to the City
Engineering and Fire Departments. Parking proposed on -site can accommodate the conversion of the existing
structures, the proposed expansion of the pool house, and the new 1,200 square foot office facility proposed on
the existing pool site per City Land Use Code requirements. Therefore, there is no impact.

The Specific Plan states that any events held in the proposed Meeting Facility building that exceed parking
availability on -site will be required to secure temporary parking arrangements off -site and obtain a Temporary
Use Permit from the City that identifies the alternate parking. This arrangement attempts to avoid the impact of
requiring construction of excessive parking lots on a site for the occasional, larger event and also remove any
traffic and parking capacity impacts to the adjacent neighborhood from these events. The Specific Plan also
identifies the frequency of these extra events as only a few times a year (less than 5). As such, there is no
significant impact.
The proposed project does not contain any components that would result in a change in air traffic patterns;
therefore, there is no impact.
The proposed project is located between an existing single-family neighborhood and a municipal golf course.
As such, pedestrian access points into the site are limited to private driveways from 24th Street to the west.
Public access through the project site is not necessary and the proposed project would not conflict with any
adopted policies, plans or programs supporting alternative transportation and therefore, there is no impact.

XVI. UTILITIES & SERVICE SYSTEMS
Would the project:
a) Exceed wastewater treatment requirements of the applicable
Regional Water Quality Control Board? (Sources: 1, 2, 4)
b) Require or result in the construction of new water or
wastewater treatment facilities or expansion of existing
facilities, the construction of which could cause significant
environmental effects? (Sources: 1, 2, 4, 14)
c) Require or result in the construction of new storm water
drainage facilities or expansion of existing facilities, the
construction of which could cause significant environmental
effects? (Sources: 1, 2, 4, 14)
d) Have sufficient water supplies available to serve the project
from existing entitlements and resources, or are new or
expanded entitlements needed? (Sources: I, 2, 4, 14)
e) Result in a determination by the wastewater treatment provider
which serves or may serve the project that it has adequate
capacity to serve the project's projected demand in addition to
the provider's existing commitments? (Sources: 1, 2, 4, 14)
f) Be served by a Landfill with sufficient permitted capacity to
accommodate the project's solid waste disposal needs?
(Sources: 1, 2, 4, 14)
g) Comply with federal, state, and local statutes and regulations
related to solid waste?
The proposed General Plan Amendment, Zone Change and Planned Development/Specific Plan is located on a
currently developed property located within an urbanized area with existing utility services, including water
and wastewater facilities. The primary component of the project includes the conversion of existing structures
to another use (residential to office), and comments received from City staff and Sweetwater Authority indicate
that capacity exists to handle the needs of the structures to be converted. The two structures proposed for
construction in a later phase of the Specific Plan would require additional discretionary review by the City, and
while not anticipated, any upgrades required in association with that development will be addressed at that
time —Therefore, the -project -would -have -no significant -impact. Also, -new construction -would be -designed -and
constructed to include best management practices (BMPs) to appropriately handle wastewater and not exceed
wastewater treatment requirements of the San Diego Regional Water Quality Control Board: therefore, there is
no impact.

The proposed project site would continue to be served by EDCO, the local waste collection and recycle
company. EDCO has indicated that they are able to accommodate the solid waste disposal needs of future
projects within the City; therefore, there is no significant impact. Also, the proposed project would comply with
all federal, state, and local statues and regulations related to solid waste.

a) Does the project have the potential to degrade the quality of the
environment, substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or
wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population to drop
below self-sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or
animal community, reduce the number or restrict the range of
a rare or endangered plant or animal or eliminate important
examples of the major periods of California history or
prehistory?
b) Does the project have impacts that are individually limited, but
cumulatively considerable? ("Cumulatively considerable"
means that the incremental effects of a project are considerable
when viewed in connection with the effects of past projects, the
effects of other current projects, and the effects of probable
future projects)?
c) Does the project have environmental effects which will cause
substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or
indirectly?
No significant impacts to the environment as a result of this project have been identified. Approval of the
project is not expected to have any significant impacts, either long-term or short-term, nor will it cause
substantial adverse effect on human beings, either directly or indirectly.

Specific Plan and General Plan/Zone Change to allow for the development
of an office and meeting facility for a non-profit philanthropic foundation,
the International Community Foundation (2007-16 IS)
International Community Foundation (ICF)
Richard Kiy
11300 Sorrento Valley Road, Suite 115
San Diego, CA 92121
Address of Project: 2505 and 2525 N Avenue, adjacent to the Westside of the National City
Municipal Golf Course, within the City of National City (APNs 563-150-
29 and 563-040-11)
******************************************************************************
Project Description
The International Community Foundation (ICF), a non-profit philanthropic organization, has
submitted an application for a Specific Plan, General Plan Amendment, and Zone Change. A
General Plan Amendment and Zone Change are required to rezone the property from single-
family residential, RS-1, to Private Institutional Use, IP-PD.
The project involves two parcels located at 2505 and 2525 N Avenue, each containing a single-
family residence, one of which is known as the historic Oliver Noyes residence at 2525 N
Avenue. The property was donated to ICF with the stipulation that they preserve the historic
integrity of the Oliver Noyes residence and the grounds. The property at 2505 N Avenue (Parcel
#: 563-040-11) covers 2.28 acres and includes a single -story 2-bedroom home. The applicant
proposes to convert this residence into offices and construct a 14-space parking lot to conduct
fundraising and volunteerism activities. The adjacent 3,400 square foot Oliver Noyes House at
2525 N Avenue (APN #563-150-29) contains 4 bedrooms, and is proposed by the applicant to be
used for meetings, receptions, and accommodations for occasional visiting donors and guests.
This parcer—la. so includes anaoor pool, poorhouse, and expansive gardens (uicluding a 1/2 acre
working organic garden) with acreage totaling 4.57 acres. The 780-square-foot pool house sits on
the easternmost section of the property overlooking the municipal golf course and is proposed as
meeting space initially, and to eventually be converted it to office space as well. In addition, the
application involves future phases that include constructing a 1,200 square foot office building
and a 3,500 square foot meeting facility.
ICF currently has a staff of 6 people who would be utilizing the office space and a maintenance
staff of 3 who would maintain the buildings and gardens. Board meetings would be held every
other month for approximately one to two hours with approximately 9 — 12 attendees. Once or
twice per year ICF may host outdoor receptions that may include up to 100 individuals. A
Temporary Use Permit (TUP) would be obtained prior to special events. Off -site parking would
41
202 of 334
be secured for each event in order to minimize the impact on the neighborhood, and would be
identified in the TUP.
The operation of the facility is proposed in two phases. Phase 1 will consist of converting the
1,200 square foot residence at 2505 N Avenue to office space, construction of the parking lot and
installation of landscaping, use of the 3,400 square foot Oliver Noyes residence, and use of the
pool house for meeting space. The property currently has 8 parking stalls located around the
existing circle drive on the 2525 N Avenue site. Phase 1 expansion includes construction of 14
additional parking stalls on the 2505 N Avenue site to accommodate board members and visiting
guests. Along with the parking expansion on this parcel, landscaping would be enhanced. No
modifications to the Oliver Noyes residence are proposed other than regular maintenance.
Phase 2 will consist of a remodel of the 780 square foot pool house into office space, with a
potential expansion of 450 additional square feet. Also proposed is construction of a 3,500 square
foot, ADA compliant meeting facility that would provide seating for up to a maximum of 75
individuals and include handicapped accessible bathrooms, a kitchen, a projection screen,
wireless access, and an outdoor balcony. Lastly, construction of a 1,200 square foot, single -story
office space located at the rear of the project in place of the current swimming pool, has been
proposed.
The architectural design of each new structure of Phase 2 would occur prior to its construction
and would require review and approval of the City through the Planned Development permit
process (Municipal Code Chapter 18.116).
The Specific Plan area includes two parcels comprised of approximately 6.85 acres located on the
east side of the N Avenue and 24th Street intersection and west and adjacent to the National City
Golf Course. Surrounding uses include the National City Municipal Golf Course to the east and
south, and single-family housing to the north and west. The terrain consists of a relatively level
area in the northwestern one third of the site and then slopes steeply down approximately 75 feet
on the east and south perimeters, adjacent to the golf course below. All development would occur
within the level areas of the project site, within the area previously disturbed. No development is
proposed on the slopes.
Environmental Findings:
The Negative Declaration (2007-16 IS) has been considered together with any comments received
during the public review process, and based on the whole record (including the Initial Study
Checklist and any comments received) there is no substantial evidence that the project will have a
significant effect on the environment and that the Negative Declaration reflects the City's
independent judgment and analysis.
A copy of the Initial Study documenting reasons to support the finding is attached (2007-16 IS).

City amending Section 16.06.060 (Functions and authority- Planning Commission to
function as committee on housing and community development- Ex Officio members) of
Title 16 (City Boards, Commissions, and Committees) of the National City Municipal Code.
Background:
The Community Development Commission -Housing Authority of the City of National City ("Housing
Authority") has served as a catalyst for housing development and programs for the City since its inception
by City Ordinance No. 1484 adopted on October 14, 1975. Section 16.06.060 of the National City
Municipal Code established the functions of the Planning Commission as the committee on housing and
community development ("Committee") with a total of nine members: seven members of the Planning
Commission by virtue of the office (ex-officio) as well as two members who were tenants of the
development commission, one being over the age of sixty two.
The purpose of the Committee has been to encourage communications from persons, organizations, and
institutions in the City of National City, and give advice and make recommendations to the Community
Development Commission or to the projects, programs, and policies including: housing improvements,
housing assistance, neighborhood improvements, and federal and state housing law implementation.
On July 18, 2019, Housing Authority staff made a presentation to the Housing Authority highlighting
recent housing projects and programs and providing additional information on the historic purpose of the
Committee. Staff identified the opportunity to reactivate the Committee to call attention to current housing
priorities, projects, and programs of the Housing Authority as they are further developed. After the
presentation to the Housing Authority, staff received direction from the City Council to bring back a revised
Ordinance that would make recommended updates to the Committee that would make it responsive to
the Housing and Community Development Goals being considered through the City's and Housing
Authority's strategic planning process.
Proposed changes:
The proposed updated Ordinance specifically identifies the Housing Committee to specifically serve an
advisory role on housing and housing -related matters to the Housing Authority. The additional two ex-
officio members that would sit on the Housing Committee should have subject matter expertise in
housing -related matters. Examples of subject matter experts include housing policy specialists, for- and
non-profit developers, housing and land use attorneys, or other housing professionals in housing -related
matters. Although the Housing Committee can meet during any Planning Commission meeting it is the
intent to convene the Housing Committee on Planning Commission meetings held on the third Monday
of every month. The ordinance already provides that the two Housing Committee members shall not
receive compensation for their service.
The purpose of the Housing Committee would also be updated to parallel the City's strategic goals on
Housing and Community Development. Language is replaced to make note that the Housing Committee
will provide advice and make recommendations to the Housing Authority or to the projects, programs and
policies that seek to, for example: (1) pursue new housing options at all income levels; (2) ensure
preservation of existing affordable housing; (3) streamline permitting and improve code compliance; and,
(4) enhance the City's role in reducing homelessness.

Explanation:
National City's Capital Improvement Program (CIP) estimates approximately $80 million
in capital needs over the next five years. Projects include, for example, corridor
enhancements for traffic calming, pedestrian / bicycle safety (including Americans with
Disabilities Act compliance) and smart growth redevelopment; road diets and complete
streets; safe routes to school; traffic signal modifications; new street lights; sewer
replacement and upsizing; storm drain improvements and implementation of Low -
Impact Development (LID) measures for treatment of urban storm water runoff; drought
tolerant landscaping; facilities improvements; and park amenities.
In order to successfully design, manage and construct these projects, the Engineering &
Public Works Department advertised a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for various
engineering, architectural and construction support services on May 1, 2019. Additional
services requested via the RFQ include, for example, plan and map reviews,
preparation of plat and legal descriptions, sewer system management and financial
administration, housing and real estate development services, Building Department
support services, and environmental compliance involving storm water, wastewater and
hazardous materials.
The RFQ was advertised on the City's website, published in the San Diego Union
Tribune, e-mailed to over 100 professional consulting firms and also advertised on
PlanetBids where over 400 firms were notified. Additionally, the City hosted an
Information Session regarding the RFQ process on May 14, 2019 at the MLK Jr.
Community Center, which was attended by over 100 people. The Department received
71 Statement of Qualifications (SOQs) from various firms by the June 10, 2019
deadline. Copies of the SOQs received are available in the Office of the City Engineer.
Based on the strength of their SOQ and interview, staff recommends executing a three-
year Agreement (with the option to extend for two, one year extensions) with HDR, Inc.
for a not -to -exceed amount of $2,000,000 to provide on -call project support services for
National City's CIP, including, but not limited to, project management; civil engineering;
plan reviews; constructability reviews; construction support; long-range planning; grants
management; community outreach and communications. See Exhibit "A" for general
scope of work and Exhibit "B" for schedule of fees. Services will be provided "as -
needed" based on available funding and capital priorities.
In addition, staff recommends authorizing the City Manager to execute any project -
specific supplemental agreements, as may be required for grant funded projects. These
supplemental agreements would reference the terms and conditions of the attached
master on -call Agreement, while incorporating additional project -specific grant
requirements for use of consultant support services. Authorization to accept and
appropriate grant funds, and execute grant agreements with the awarding agency (e.g.
Caltrans, SANDAG, etc.) would still require separate City Council action.

The CONSULTANT shall not disclose any reports, recommendations,
conclusions or other results of the services or the existence of the subject matter of this

National City, its officers, officials, agents, employees, and volunteers against and from any and
all liability, loss, damages to property, injuries to, or death of any person or persons, and all

misconduct in the performance of this Agreement. CITY will cooperate reasonably in the

1238 of 334�
Explanation:
National City's Capital Improvement Program (CIP) estimates approximately $80 million
in capital needs over the next five years. Projects include, for example, corridor
enhancements for traffic calming, pedestrian / bicycle safety (including Americans with
Disabilities Act compliance) and smart growth redevelopment; road diets and complete
streets; safe routes to school; traffic signal modifications; new street lights; sewer
replacement and upsizing; storm drain improvements and implementation of Low -
Impact Development (LID) measures for treatment of urban storm water runoff; drought
tolerant landscaping; facilities improvements; and park amenities.
In order to successfully design, manage and construct these projects, the Engineering &
Public Works Department advertised a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for various
engineering, architectural and construction support services on May 1, 2019. Additional
services requested via the RFQ include, for example, plan and map reviews,
preparation of plat and legal descriptions, sewer system management and financial
administration, housing and real estate development services, Building Department
support services, and environmental compliance involving storm water, wastewater and
hazardous materials.
The RFQ was advertised on the City's website, published in the San Diego Union
Tribune, e-mailed to over 100 professional consulting firms and also advertised on
PlanetBids where over 400 firms were notified. Additionally, the City hosted an
Information Session regarding the RFQ process on May 14, 2019 at the MLK Jr.
Community Center, which was attended by over 100 people. The Department received
71 Statement of Qualifications (SOQs) from various firms by the June 10, 2019
deadline. Copies of the SOQs received are available in the Office of the City Engineer.
Based on the strength of their SOQ, interview and past performance, staff recommends
executing a three-year Agreement (with the option to extend for two, one year
extensions) with KTUA for a not -to -exceed amount of $2,000,000 to provide on -call
project support services for National City's CIP, including, but not limited to, project
management; landscape architecture and urban design; transportation planning;
geographic information systems; long-range planning; grants management; community
outreach and communications. See Exhibit "A" for general scope of work and Exhibit "B"
for schedule of fees. Services will be provided "as -needed" based on available funding
and capital priorities.
In addition, staff recommends authorizing the City Manager to execute any project -
specific supplemental agreements, as may be required for grant funded projects. These
supplemental agreements would reference the terms and conditions of the attached
master on -call Agreement, while incorporating additional project -specific grant
requirements for use of consultant support services. Authorization to accept and
appropriate grant funds, and execute grant agreements with the awarding agency (e.g.
Caltrans, SANDAG, etc.) would still require separate City Council action.

their position and file the same with the other party. The CITY shall, with reasonable diligence,
determine the quality or acceptability of the work, the manner of performance and/or the
compensation payable to the CONSULTANT.

employees are employees of the CITY, and are not entitled to any of the rights, benefits, or
privileges of the CITY's employees, incluc ing but notlimited to retirement, medical, unemploy-
ment, or workers' compensation insurance.
This Agreement contemplates the personal services of the CONSULTANT and
the CONSULTANT's employees, and it is recognized by the parties that a substantial
inducement to the CITY for entering into this Agreement was, and is, the professional reputation
and competence of the CONSULTANT and its employees. Neither this Agreement, nor any
interest herein, may be assigned by the CONSULTANT without the prior written consent of the
CITY. Nothing herein contained is intended to prevent the CONSULTANT from employing or

treatments, processes or materials whose availability is critical to the success of the project the

when no time is specified, then within a commercially reasonable time. Accordingly, unless the
CONSULTANT has notified the CITY otherwise, the CONSULTANT warrants that all
products, materials, processes or treatments identified in the project documents prepared for the
CITY are reasonably commercially available. Any failure by the CONSULTANT to use due
diligence under this sub -section will render the CONSULTANT liable to the CITY for any
increased costs that result from the CITY's later inability to obtain the specified items or any

medical condition. The CONSULTANT will take positive action to insure that applicants are

recruitment advertising, layoff or termination, rates of pay or other forms of compensation, and
selection for training, including apprenticeship. The CONSULTANT agrees to post in
conspicuous places available to employees and applicants for employment any notices provided
by the CITY setting forth the provisions of this non-discrimination clause.

Safe and efficient modes of transportation, infrastructure upgrades, and improved quality of life are high priorities for cities and
their residents. As budget challenges continue and the demand for infrastructure and public facilities increases, KTUA understands
the need to make every dollar count towards the implementation of your priority projects. City staff faces many challenges every-
day — from intensely competitive grant programs to responding to resident concerns about issues that impact their quality of life.
As consultants, KTUA's goal is to make your job easier by providing you with the resources needed to bring your projects to fruition.
We offer you a team of transportation and land use planners, engineers, landscape architects, grant writers, outreach facilitators,
and GIS analysts to support your various on -call needs. Through our work with National City over the last ten years, we understand
your goals and objectives and offer the support of our staff to bring your projects to reality.
We believe there are three factors that demonstrate our innovative approach to projects. First, we continue to secure repeat proj-
ects with clients such as SCAG (10 projects in the last 7 years); the City of Santa Ana (3 projects in the last 5 years); Riverside Transit
Agency (2 projects in the last 3 years); and the City of Goleta (2 projects in the last 3 years). This also includes five projects for
the City of National City. Second, we have assisted our clients in preparing and winning more than $42M in grants for complete
and green street projects over the last ten years. Third, our projects consistently win awards at the local, state, and national level,
most recently in April and May 2019. We received two Sustainability Planning awards from SCAG for the City of Santa Ana Central
Complete Streets Plan and the Riverside Transit Agency Hemet Mobility Hub Feasibility Study.The Goleta Bicycle and Pedestrian
Master Plan received awards from APWA and APA Central Coast Section. Additional APA awards have been granted to the City of
Paso Robles Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan; the City of San Jacinto Trails Master Plan; Riverside Transit Agency First and Last
Mile Mobility Plan; the City of Santa Ana Central Complete Streets Plan; and the City of Vista Townsite Drive Corridor Study.
QUALIFICATION CRITERIA:
1. Knowledge of Local Environment: KTUA has been working in National City since 2010 on CIP projects, planning studies, and
grant applications related to redevelopment in the downtown area, traffic calming and bike and pedestrian infrastructure, regional
transportation integration, and waterfront access. We are familiar with the body of work that National City has completed, and we
are ready to help build new projects for the three communities in the city, El Toyon, Kimball, and Las Palmas.This recent experi-
ence provides the KTUA team members with a clear understanding of local conditions, priorities, nuances, and processes through
multi-lingual community engagement, stakeholder meetings, field work, walking -tours, city staff coordination, and council and
committee presentations. KTUA will work closely with the Engineering and Public Works Department, as well as other on -call con-
sultants, to advance the city's priority projects.
2. Experience and Technical Competence: KTUA has provided transportation planning, landscape architecture, GIS, community
engagement, visualization and grant writing services to cities and other public agencies throughout central and southern California
for 49 years, with an emphasis on complete streets, transit, safe routes, vision zero, first/last mile, trails, open spaces, GIS analysis, and
landscape architecture. With KTUA's technical experience in many facets of clesign, planning, and analysis for municipal agencies,
along with stormwater infrastructure, community planning, placemaking, and urban greening project experience, we bring a
solid foundation of services to improve the cities and agencies within the region. We are currently managing on -call or as -needed
252 of 334
contracts for Western Riverside Council of Governments (WRCOG), the City of San Diego, the Port of San Diego, San Diego Asso-
ciation of Governments (SANDAG), the City of National City, and NAVFAC Southwest.Through this on -call experience, we under-
stand the process to handle multiple task orders and schedules concurrently; to achieve a sustainable, implementable project;
and the design, bidding and construction requirements for new, renovation and expansion projects that can be constructed and
maintained safely and economically.
3. Grants Management: KTUA has an extensive background preparing and assisting with the preparation of grants for munici-
palities such as the Port of San Diego, City of Vista, City of National. City, Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA), and the
Western Riverside Council of Governments (WRCOG). KTUA has secured more than $15.5M in grants for our r clients, and $3.62M
specifically for National City. In addition, our clients have secured more than $42M in grant funding based on KTUA prepared plans
and studies. As one of our project deliverables, we prepare detailed project cut -sheets for the priority projects, typically including a
project summary, 30% drawings, photos, 3D models, and preliminary cost estimates.These cut sheets are then ready to be used for
grant applications. Over the past 25 years, KTUA has also worked extensively on the implementation of grant funded projects. Ad-
herence to grant requirements, budgets, schedules, and reporting procedures is absolutely critical. Missing one of these elements
can result in funding being pulled.
4. Financial Management and Accounting System: KTUA accumulates, classifies, and allocates costs in a consistent manner.To
determine the costs of services rendered, KTUA conforms with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and cost account-
ing provisions contained in contracts and applicable laws, standards, rules, and regulations governing cost accounting practices
issued by the following: Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB); Cost Accounting Standards Board (CASB); Internal Revenue
Service (IRS).
I will serve as the principal landscape architect and planner for all of the services offered by KTUA to make sure our efforts are
well coordinated and seamless with the city and other city consultants so that the services we deliver to you meet your budget,
schedule, and expectations. Other key personnel includeTransportation Planner Joe Punsalan, Outreach Facilitator Jacob Leon,
Transportation Engineer Tom Bertulis, Landscape Architect Brooke Whalen, GIS Technical Manager Alex Samarin, Landscape Archi-
tect Tim Henderson, Landscape Architect Jerod Huwa, Stephen Nunez, and Silvia Fang. KTUA has a San Diego staff of 35 landscape
architects, planners, irrigation designers, GIS analysts and support personnel. Our staff resources allow us the flexibility to work with
your schedule to meet the requirements of this contract. Civil Sense, a San Diego -based civil engineering firm, will fulfill our DBE
goal. KTUA has worked with Civil Sense on a number of park and street improvement projects.
KTUA looks forward to the opportunity to discuss our project approach and qualifications with you. We hope this submittal
demonstrates the understanding and ability of the KTUA team to help you meet and exceed your overall goals and objectives for
the City of National City.

CONTACT INFORMATION
This section identifies our principal contact for the contract, as
well as our project managers for the various disciplines covered
by KTUA. Client and community satisfaction are key to the
project's success. This section also includes some recent quotes
from our clients to support our attention to detail.
FAMILIARITY WITH LOCAL ENVIRONMENT
The planning and design of a project requires an understand-
ing of the regulations and requirements to protect the public's
health safety and welfare; an understanding of the most inno-
vative design technologies to meet current and future needs;
an understanding of the needs and priorities of the users; and
an understanding of the responsibilities of the client in terms
of risk management, maintenance, future expansion opportu-
nities and costs. KTUA takes these responsibilities seriously and
collaborates with our clients and the consultant team to ensure
the project meets and exceeds its goals and objectives. Details
of our experience with the City of National City, along with our
experience working with federal, state, regional, and local regu-
lations are detailed in this section.
EXPERIENCE AND TECHNICAL COMPETENCE
To support the implementation of the National City CIP, KTUA
offers a team of professionals with experience in National City
and with CIP projects in other San Diego County jurisdictions.
Their project experience includes street improvement projects,
active transportation facilities, universal access, and park and
recreation facilities. Most of the KTUA projects involve extensive
public engagement programs, and many of the projects are
grant funded, adding another layer of management responsibil-
ities to assure compliance with grant requirements.
Our team will be led by staff you have worked with on other
projects: Mike Singleton, Joe Punsalan, Tom Bertulis, Jacob
Leon, Brooke Whalen, Tim Henderson, Alex Samarin, Silvia Fang,
Stephen Nunez, and Jerod Huwa. To support KTUA projects that
may require civil engineering services, we have included Civil
Sense, a San Diego -based DBE engineering firm.
KTUA's depth of project experience is extensive. Included in this
section are our firm profile and a matrix of our project experi-
ence focusing on transportation planning (including innovative
traffic calming and bike and ped facilities); landscape architec-
ture (primarily streetscapes and parks); GIS; and grants.Through
the general services offered by KTUA, we can support National
City on transportation planning, landscape architecture, GIS,
planning and design, community outreach, and grants man-
agement. Each project sheet includes photos and/or graphics, a
description of our scope of services, our client contact informa-
tion, project fees, and a list of the key personnel who worked on
the project.
Strong project management skills, a defined scope of work
and budget, and a clear communication plan that outlines the
roles and responsibilities of each of the key players are essen-
tial to the successful completion of the project.This section
discusses our project innovations, quality control plan, staffing
and management plan, communication plan and community
engagement plan.
GRANTS MANAGEMENT
Grants are basically condensed versions of persuasion. The
advocacy position needs to be a passionate effort to commu-
nicate a current situation that could greatly benefit from the
grant. It certainly needs to follow the requirements closely and
it needs to backup its claims with facts. It needs to stand out
amongst many applications. It must build a case that if funded,
the resulting project will be transferable to others in the state
or region as a learning experience that builds upon a body of
knowledge and furthers the understanding of an issue and
a solution to that issue. It needs to stress how changes will
improve the public's healthy, safety and welfare. In addition, it
needs to stress the inclusion of best management practices that
are at the forefront of the industry, while promoting innovation
that pushes the industry. This section outlines KTUA's approach
towards the preparation of grant applications and grant man-
agement. Also included is a summary of the grant applications
prepared by KTUA and the funding received, as well as a sum-
mary of the funds received by our clients as a result of plans and
studies prepared by KTUA.
FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT AND ACCOUNTING SYSTEM
With KTUA's long history on public works projects, our account-
ing system and overhead rate are regularly reviewed by DCAA
for federal projects and Caltrans for state projects.
SCHEDULE OF FEES
KTUA understands that hourly rates and fees will be negotiated
upon selection and identification of task orders.
EXCEPTIONS TO THIS REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL
KTUA takes no exceptions to the RFQ or the requirements iden-
tified in the RFQ.
ADDENDA TO THE RFQ
It is KTUA's understanding that no addenda to the RFQ have
been issued.

Explanation:
National City's Capital Improvement Program (CIP) estimates approximately $80 million
in capital needs over the next five years. Projects include, for example, corridor
enhancements for traffic calming, pedestrian / bicycle safety (including Americans with
Disabilities Act compliance) and smart growth redevelopment; road diets and complete
streets; safe routes to school; traffic signal modifications; new street lights; sewer
replacement and upsizing; storm drain improvements and implementation of Low-
lmpact Development (LID) measures for treatment of urban storm water runoff; drought
tolerant landscaping; facilities improvements; and park amenities.
In order to successfully design, manage and construct these projects, the Engineering &
Public Works Department advertised a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for various
engineering, architectural and construction support services on May 1, 2019. Additional
services requested via the RFQ include, for example, plan and map reviews,
preparation of plat and legal descriptions, sewer system management and financial
administration, housing and real estate development services, Building Department
support services, and environmental compliance involving storm water, wastewater and
hazardous materials.
The RFQ was advertised on the City's website, published in the San Diego Union
Tribune, e-mailed to over 100 professional consulting firms and also advertised on
PlanetBids where over 400 firms were notified. Additionally, the City hosted an
Information Session regarding the RFQ process on May 14, 2019 at the MLK Jr.
Community Center, which was attended by over 100 people. The Department received
71 Statement of Qualifications (SOQs) from various firms by the June 10, 2019
deadline. Copies of the Sods received are available in the Office of the City Engineer.
Based on the strength of their SOQ, interview and past performance, staff recommends
executing a three-year Agreement (with the option to extend for two, one year
extensions) with NV5, Inc. for a not -to -exceed amount of $2,000,000 to provide on -call
project support services for National City's GIP, including, but not limited to, project
management; engineering; construction management, inspections and certified payroll;
plan reviews; eonstruetability-reviews; land surveying; environmental assessments; -----
geotechnical; construction support; community outreach and communications. See
Exhibit "A" for general scope of work and Exhibit "B" for schedule of fees. Services will
be provided "as -needed" based on available funding and capital priorities.
In addition, staff recommends authorizing the City Manager to execute any project -
specific supplemental agreements, as may be required for grant funded projects. These
supplemental agreements would reference the terms and conditions of the attached
master on -call Agreement, while incorporating additional project -specific grant
requirements for use of consultant support services. Authorization to accept and
appropriate grant funds, and execute grant agreements with the awarding agency (e.g.
Caltrans, SANDAG, etc.) would still require separate City Council action.

One of the keys to successful delivery of projects
through on -call and as -needed contracts is the
proper allocation of resources, both from a technical
specialty perspective and a production perspective,
For this contract with the City we are prepared to
dedicate the talents of registered engineers, licensed
land surveyors and seasoned technical experts
in more than ten disciplines, many of whom have
previous experience working with National City:
/ Civil Engineering (includes streets and sewer
infrastructure)
- Structural Engineering
/ Mechanical Engineering

v. Environmental Engineering, Planning & Design
/ Construction Management & Inspections (includes
Certified Payroll)
✓ Plan and Map Reviews
✓ Constructability Reviews
✓ Grant Applications and Management
✓ Capital Needs Assessment and Asset Management
One of the principal reasons for our success on
on -call contracts is that technical or specialty
resources are identified and allocated when the
scope and budget for the task order are prepared,
not hastily cobbled together after the Notice to
Proceed (NTP) is received. The scopes and hours
for each discipline are clearly spelled out before the
project begins, whether the resource is in-house or
an outside subconsultant. All task order requests and
associated allocation of resources will be managed by
Phil Kern, our Project Manager and day to day contact
for this contract.

Explanation:
National City's Capital Improvement Program (CIP) estimates approximately $80 million
in capital needs over the next five years. Projects include, for example, corridor
enhancements for traffic calming, pedestrian / bicycle safety (including Americans with
Disabilities Act compliance) and smart growth redevelopment; road diets and complete
streets; safe routes to school; traffic signal modifications; new street lights; sewer
replacement and upsizing; storm drain improvements and implementation of Low -
Impact Development (LID) measures for treatment of urban storm water runoff; drought
tolerant landscaping; facilities improvements; and park amenities.
In order to successfully design, manage and construct these projects, the Engineering &
Public Works Department advertised a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for various
engineering, architectural and construction support services on May 1, 2019. Additional
services requested via the RFQ include, for example, plan and map reviews,
preparation of plat and legal descriptions, sewer system management and financial
administration, housing and real estate development services, Building Department
support services, and environmental compliance involving storm water, wastewater and
hazardous materials.
The RFQ was advertised on the City's website, published in the San Diego Union
Tribune, e-mailed to over 100 professional consulting firms and also advertised on
PlanetBids where over 400 firms were notified. Additionally, the City hosted an
Information Session regarding the RFQ process on May 14, 2019 at the MLK Jr.
Community Center, which was attended by over 100 people. The Department received
71 Statement of Qualifications (SOQs) from various firms by the June 10, 2019
deadline. Copies of the SOQs received are available in the Office of the City Engineer.
Based on the strength of their SOQ and interview, staff recommends executing a three-
year Agreement (with the option to extend for two, one year extensions) with WSP USA,
Inc. for a not -to -exceed amount of $2,000,000 to provide on -call project support
services for National City's CIP, including, but not limited to, project management; traffic
engineering; transportation planning; plan reviews; constructability reviews; long-range
planning; grants management; community outreach and communications. See Exhibit
"A" for general scope of work and Exhibit "B" for schedule of fees. Services will be
provided "as -needed" based on available funding and capital priorities.
In addition, staff recommends authorizing the City Manager to execute any project -
specific supplemental agreements, as may be required for grant funded projects. These
supplemental agreements would reference the terms and conditions of the attached
master on -call Agreement, while incorporating additional project -specific grant
requirements for use of consultant support services. Authorization to accept and
appropriate grant funds, and execute grant agreements with the awarding agency (e.g.
Caltrans, SANDAG, etc.) would still require separate City Council action.

Re: Qualifications for On -Call Project Support Services for National City's Capital
Improvement Program (CIP)
Dear Mr. Yano:
The City of National City (City) is seeking local consultants to provide on -call project
support services for National City's $70M Capital Improvement Program (CIP) for
infrastructure, parks and facilities, and housing on a prequalified, on -call basis for a
possible five-year period. As a corporation with over 30 years in San Diego County and
a 60+ year presence in Southern California, WSP USA Inc. (WSP) has provided exactly
these types of services throughout San Diego, Orange, Los Angeles, Riverside and San
Bernardino counties. We would like to work with the City to meet your CIP needs as
they arise over the next five years. Our team is proficient at supplementing in-house
staff with local talent to help meet any task order request with precise scheduling, cost
effectiveness, value-added services, and customer satisfaction.
Responsiveness to City task orders is critical, since assignments usually have little
lead time, can be short in duration, are high -priority, and/or require the consultant to
proceed with minimal direction from City staff. WSP has the capability, capacity and
experience to be responsive to such requests. We bring the City a full -service firm and
local team with deep resources and a diversity of talent.
TEAM STRUCTURED FOR AS -NEEDED CONTRACT RESPONSIVENESS
As a leading engineering and professional services consulting firm, WSP has assembled
a team with the right leadership, necessary expertise, knowledge of City requirements,
and depth of resources to respond to all the City's task order needs under this contract.
With more than 30 years of local project experience, WSP offers:
Local Talent: Our project manager and the City's sole point of contact, Joe De La
Garza, PE has more than 24 years of public works engineering and management
experience, all in San Diego County. Joe has managed multidisciplinary teams and
projects for numerous cities, counties, transportation authorities and Caltrans districts
throughout Southern California. Joe has worked on projects for the City of National
City and around San Diego county continuously throughout his career.
Scheduling: WSP's local San Diego Office is staffed with over 67 civil engineers, traffic
engineers, structural engineers, transportation planners, environmental planners,
land -use planners, construction management engineers and financial advisors. With
383 professionals in Southern California, WSP offers full -service local offices in San
Diego, Orange, San Bernardino and Los Angeles. Supported by an extensive pool of
resources, WSP has the depth of knowledge and range of expertise that will enable us
to effectively and efficiently respond to the City's needs. Since we are a large firm with
local offices, we can distribute and balance our staffing resources against the needs of
multiple projects. This allows us the flexibility to quickly mobilize multiple disciplines
and meet project requirements for both short- and long-term assignments.
Cost Effective, Value -Added Services: Given that task order assignments can be
somewhat unpredictable, our knowledge of the region, existing relationships with
area stakeholders and local presence are invaluable to such contracts. Our local
commitment and experience provide our team with great insight into the region's
298 of 334
SI)
infrastructure and network, and will enable us to streamline the project development
process to bring you value-added service. WSP understands the professional consulting
services needed to support the City's CIP and potential challenges that might arise
during various task assignments. Additionally, WSP has secured billions of dollars in
discretionary Iocal, state and federal grant funds through the application of sound
project strategy development and grant writing support.
Customer Satisfaction: WSP has a history of success with local projects, as well as
Southern California on -call contracts, including:
• SANDAG Architecture and Engineering On -Call Contract
• NAVFAC IDIQ Contract
• California State Park, Civil On -Call Contract
• City of Anaheim On -Call Traffic Engineering Services
• RCTC On -Call Grant Writing Services
We look forward to the opportunity to work with the City of National City. WSP is eager
to address the challenges and opportunities for this project, and we appreciate your
consideration of our team. If you have any questions about our submittal during your
evaluation process, please contact Joe De La Garza at (619) 507-0987 or joe.delagarza@
wsp.com. As the firm's area manager for San Diego County, located at 401 B Street,
Suite 1650, San Diego, CA 92101, you have my commitment that our team will be
available and support you through the resources of our global bench and the nearby
resources of specialty subconsultants with whom we will partner to the City's ultimate
benefit.
Sincerely,
WSP USA Inc.

SECTION ONE
Executive Summary
As the City of National City (City) delivers its largest Capital Improvement Program (CIP)
in recent history, the WSP team is poised to help you succeed! Our team is proficient at
supplementing in-house staff with local talent to help meet any task order request with
precise scheduling, cost effectiveness, value-added services and customer satisfaction.
A significant portion of your CIP involves the design of transportation, parks and
facilities, housing, and related infrastructure. Our local team recently completed
environmental, planning and design of the region's largest infrastructure project —
the Mid -Coast Corridor Transit Project —much of which involved on -call task order
improvements. Our team can apply that broad technical knowledge and design delivery
acumen to help you advance your program.
INTEGRATED CAPABILITIES
We foster collaboration in everything we do. WSP has a distinct history of
success delivering on -call CIP task orders focused on rehabilitating and repairing city
infrastructure and major transportation projects alike. No matter the scope, we view
each project as a composite of independent, but interconnected, critical elements, and
we apply a collaborative interdisciplinary approach to develop sustainable solutions.
The Mid -Coast Project task orders, for instance, involved independent delivery of
many roadways and bike facilities, structures, drainage and wet utilities, traffic signal
and Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) improvements, rail grade crossings and storm water quality measures.
Understanding their complex interactions, however, is what led to successful federal funding and delivery.

within the firm or with a subconsultant—to service
any and all of your needs.
SUCCESS MANAGEMENT
We value our people and our reputation. We
believe in delivering success to our clients and to
the communities we serve. A driving factor that
allows us to continuously meet project objectives is
the early establishment of shared expectations with

Success:
Hector Avenue
Storm Drain
"WSP was very
accommodating to our
urgent request for the
engineering design in
order to repair a failed
storm drain pipe on a
very steep slope behind
the property at 9109
Hector Ave.
WSP provided us with
several alternatives on
how to repair our failed
infrastructure in a very
short period of time.
It was a pleasure working
with this firm as they
always proceeded with
extreme professionalism
and expediency in order
to accommodate all of
our engineering requests.
The completion of this
emergency project was a
success and WSP was a
very integral part of our
success.''

Diego Public Works
Department
multiple projects must be managed concurrently. The Experience and Technical
Competence section describes our approach, which facilitates scope refinement,
schedule and budget adherence, precise design documents and cost estimates, and
efficient response to bottlenecks, and helps us avoid duplicative or unnecessary work.
NATIONAL CITY/SAN DIEGO SMART
We are locally dedicated with international scale. Indeed, WSP is locally
organized, focusing first and primarily on the communities we live and work in. We
have been a part of the San Diego engineering industry for over 30 years, and WSP's 67
employees here know the local environment well. They have worked throughout the
region on its infrastructure in its neighborhoods. They are deeply entrenched in the
local professional industry and personally in their communities. Our eight specialty
subconsultants are also all San Diego firms and likewise invested in their region. As
discussed in the Knowledge and Understanding of the Local Environment section,
we offer an in-depth knowledge of, and commitment to, the City of National City.
EMPOWERED INNOVATORS
We have an empowering culture and hold ourselves accountable. We are
professionals and we are doers. As such, WSP empowers us to take charge of our client
relationships, our teams and our projects, and innovate in all aspects of our work. This
means we take personal ownership of, and accountability for, our performance. The
team we have proposed, led by WSP Project Manager Joe De La Garza, PE, is introduced
in the Experience and Technical Competence section. They are excited to foster
collaborative relationships with City staff, and together advance creative project
solutions.
GRANTS MANAGEMENT
We have proven industry experience in grant management services. In
today's environment of limited local resources, new federal funding opportunities,
and frequently changing rules and procedures, securing funds for infrastructure
investments is challenging. As discussed in the Grants Management section, WSP
has helped clients secure over $20.9 billion in federal grants for over 100 projects
nationwide from a variety of discretionary programs, and nearly $3 billion from
subsidized federal loan and credit assistance programs.
MENTORSHIP/EQUALITY
WSP takes equal opportunity hiring and contracting very seriously. From our
company -wide initiative to become the first gender -balanced global consultancy to
our deep local investment in the small and disadvantaged enterprise community,
our team places a high priority on succeeding as a diverse and inclusive team. We
introduce our four disadvantaged business enterprise (DBE) subconsultants in the
Experience and Technical Competence section. We commit to tneeting and exceeding
the 6% DBE goal for this contract and providing our subconsultants important and
meaningful roles.

ITEM TITLE:
Seeking City Council direction on restructuring the Neighborhood Council Program as part of the Work
Plan associated with 2020-2025 Strategic Focus Area on Communication and Outreach.
PREPARED BY:
EXPLANATION:
The Neighborhood Council Program was developed in an effort to improve communication with the community and to bring
services directly to National City residents. In addition, this program was created to help residents increase their awareness
of their surroundings and to better identify those areas in need of service while creating an avenue to report service requests.
The Neighborhood Council Program consists of 3 monthly evening meetings along with 4 quarterly breakfasts per year.

APPROVED BY:
Over the last 2 years staff has enhanced the quarterly breakfasts with increased department visibility, educational
presentations, and free recreational activities geared to all ages (NC Gets Active). These enhancements have allowed the
City to connect with a larger segment of our community through strategic programming which has increased participation in
the quarterly breakfasts. During the same time there has been a significant decline in participation of the evening meetings.
Staff recommends restructuring the program to enhance the quarterly breakfasts and online communication. Enhancing the
breakfasts to include community roundtables. The quarterly breakfasts would then include 3 segments; NC Gets Active,
presentations from staff and partner agencies, and community roundtables. The roundtables would allow residents to
interact with staff from various departments, submit service requests, and open a dialogue for community discussions on
topics specific to their neighborhood.

Staff Report
The proposed 2020-2025 Strategic Plan was presented to the City Council during
two workshops, which occurred on September 17, 2019 and November 5, 2019.
A Strategic Plan outlines goals, initiatives and objectives to give staff direction to
provide quality services to the community. As part of the 2020-2025 Strategic
Plan staff will be providing Work Plans for each of the 7 Focus Areas, beginning
with Communication and Outreach.
Through the Communication and Outreach Work Plan staff is recommending
restructuring the Neighborhood Council Program to increase meaningful
engagement and create tools to provide transparent information to and from the
public in a timely manner.
The Neighborhood Council Program consists of 3 monthly evening meetings
along with 4 quarterly breakfasts per year. The Neighborhood Council Program
was developed in an effort to improve communication with the community and to
bring services directly to National City residents. In addition, this program was
created to help residents increase their awareness of their surroundings and to
better identify those areas in need of service while creating an avenue to report
service requests.
Due to the modernization of the way in which the City receives and responds to
service requests (See -Click -Fix and social media) and the decline of resident
participation in the monthly evening meetings, staff recommends restructuring
the Neighborhood Council Program to 4 quarterly breakfasts per year and
improving our online capabilities.
Over the last 2 years staff has enhanced the quarterly breakfasts with increased
department visibility, educational presentations, and free recreational activities
geared to all ages (NC Gets Active). These enhancements have allowed the City
to connect with a larger segment of our community through strategic
programming which has increased participation in the quarterly breakfasts.
During the same time there has been a significant decline in participation of the
evening meetings.
Staff recommends restructuring the Neighborhood Council program to further
enhance the quarterly breakfasts and online communication. Enhancing the
breakfasts to include community roundtables. The quarterly breakfasts would
then include 3 segments; NC Gets Active, relevant and resourceful
presentations, and community roundtables. The roundtables would allow
residents to interact with staff from various departments, submit service requests,
and open a dialogue for community discussions on topics specific to their
neighborhood.

The Neighborhood Council Program has been restructured twice before, in 2006
from 13 to 7 monthly meetings and in 2011 from 7 to 3 monthly meetings.
This restructuring would align with the goals of the 2020-2025 Strategic Plan to
increase quality engagement and create tools to provide transparent information
to and from the public in a timely manner.

CITY ATTORNEY OF NATIONAL CITY
LEGAL OPINION MEMORANDUM
DATE: December 3, 2019
TO: Mayor and City Councilmembers
FROM: Angil P. Morris -Jones, City Attorney
SUBJECT: Difference between Ad Hoc Committee & Standing Committee of the Council
This memorandum is in response to Vice Mayor Morrison's request for a memo explaining
the difference between an Ad Hoc Committee and a Standing Committee. In answering this
question I will first discuss the definition of a standing committee and then explain the
definition of an Ad Hoc committee. Thereafter, I will provide a general discussion of how the
two committees function differently in carrying out the purpose for which they are formed.
With the foregoing in mind, the Council's attention is directed to the Brown Act, specifically,
to Government Code §54952 which is entitled, Legislative body; definition. The pertinent
portion of the code section is quoted below for your convenience. Said portion reads as
follows:
"As used in this chapter, "legislative body" means:
(a) The governing body of a local agency or any other local body
created by state or federal statute.
(b) A commission, committee, board, or other body of a local agency,
whether permanent or temporary, decisionmaking or advisory,
created by charter, ordinance, resolution, or formal action of a
legislative body. However, advisory committees, composed solely
of the members of the legislative body that are less than a quorum
of the legislative body are not legislative bodies, except that standing
committees of a legislative body, irrespective of their composition,
which have a continuing subject matter jurisdiction, or a meeting
schedule fixed by charter, ordinance, resolution, or formal action of
a legislative body are legislative bodies for purposes of this chapter.
[Emphasis Added]."

Legal Opinion Memo to Mayor and City Councilmembers
Re: Difference between Ad Hoc & Standing Committee
Page 2
Turning to the words Ad Hoc which is a Latin phrase meaning "for this". In English, it
generally signifies a solution designed for a specific problem or task, non -generalizable, and
not intended to be able to be adapted to other purposes. [Emphasis Added].
As reflected from Brown Act code section sited in this memo, a Standing Committee of a
legislative body are governed by the Brown Act and are defined by such as a legislative
body. A Standing Committee has continuing subject matter jurisdiction and is required to
have noticed meetings with a written agenda, held in public, which provides an opportunity
for the public to make comments on items before the committee during the meeting. Most
Standing Committees are created with the purpose that they will be permanent or continue
to meet for several years on a matter that has general subject matter jurisdiction and
comprehensive issues.
Conversely, Ad Hoc committees are formed to function for a short time period of no more
than one year, and it has limited subject matter authority. In keeping with its Latin meaning,
an Ad Hoc Committee is formed for a specific purpose, i.e., "for this" task.
Another difference between a Standing Committee and an Ad Hoc Committee, is that a
Standing Committee can have additional members besides the two councilmembers on its
committee, as it is a separate legislative body. However, an Ad Hoc Committee is limited to
the two council members. The Ad Hoc Committee may have city staff to assist them in
carrying out their purpose however, city staff does not serve as a committee member.
Additionally, an Ad Hoc Committee can also have private meetings with different individuals
as they carry out the goals of the committee. Conversely, a Standing Committee, which is
governed by the Brown Act, must conduct their meetings in public in accordance with the
law.
Finally, as you know, our city has an elected mayor. Cities with elected mayors are
empowered with appointment authority pursuant to Government Code § 40605 which is
entitled, Appointments in general law cities having elected mayor. Said section reads in its
entirety as follows:
"In general law cities where the office of mayor is an elective office
pursuant to Article 5 (commencing with Section 34900) of Chapter 7
of Part 1 of Division 2 of Title 4, the mayor, with the approval of the
city council, shall make all appointments to boards, commissions,
and committees unless otherwise specifically provided by statute."
Therefore, the mayor has the appointment authority for all Standing and Ad Hoc
Committees of the City of National City unless otherwise expressly provided by statute.
