INTRODUCTION
City Manager Brad Raulston gave opening remarks and an overview of the presentation
and introduced guest presenter, John Gavares from The Gavares Group.
PRESENTATION
Mr. Gavares provided a thorough open-ended discussion on the Strategic Planning
presentation, survey results, and focus area goals.
NOTE: All presentation materials are attached as Exhibit "A".
CITY COUNCIL AND STAFF COMMENTS AND DIRECTION
Mayor Sotelo-Solis said that out of the 7 Strategic Focus Areas, she specifically likes the
"Balanced Budget and Economic Development" and "Community and Outreach" areas.
Member Rios expressed her thoughts on "Debate v. Dialogue" and said that the
Community Survey captured a lot of what she was hearing from the public and stated that
there needs to be more community engagement. She also likes the "Transportation
Choices and Infrastructure" focus area and said that it is a key issue in the community.
Member Rios said that Customer Service is also important to recognize and improve on.
As for the Public Safety survey, she said it reinforces those things that still need to be
improved.
Member Quintero looks forward to seeing the continuation of the Strategic Plan process.
Vice Mayor Morrison said that he appreciates Dialogue and Debate being divided. He
spoke on barriers with getting communication out there, but said that the survey gave a
starting point to address issues.

CITY COUNCIL AND STAFF COMMENTS AND DIRECTION (cont.)
Vice Mayor Morrison said that without a Balanced Budget, you don't have Public Safety.
He said he would've liked to see Housing and Homelessness differentiated.
Member Rios said that the top three focus areas: Public Safety (Police and Fire); Housing
and Homelessness; and Health and Environment, reflects quality of life and stands out
for people in their neighborhoods. She said that Balanced Budget goes hand in hand with
the services that are provided in the City. Member Rios is interested to know specifically
how Balanced Budget got to the top five focus areas because she feels people interpret
questions differently.
City Manager Raulston said that part of the reason Balanced Budget was combined with
Economic Development is because it was clear that the community wants Economic
Development to balance the budget. He stressed the importance of focusing most on the
four Goals: 1) Maximize Economic Development Strategies; 2) Partner with Other Public
Agencies and Non -Profits to Increase Revenue and Augment Services; 3) Manage
Pension and Other Employee Expenses; and 4) Optimize City Assets and Lease Property
when Appropriate.
Vice Mayor Morrison said he was surprised at the low number of empty lots there are in
comparison to other cities. He doesn't think the public has a good awareness of the
pension crisis confronting the City. He thinks that Goal No. 4 sounds great but isn't sure
how much more can be done on that one.
City Manager Raulston said that he was surprised to see the Empty Lot Activation on the
survey and said it probably would've been better worded as Underutilized Lots. He thinks
that property use should be approached as a ground lease versus a sale so that it is an
ongoing revenue source.
Mayor Sotelo-Solis said that the community is excited about the possibilities of what can
be done with the empty lots. She said that our public is aware of the pension concerns
and it is a big issue. Mayor Sotelo-Solis stressed the importance of committing to the
pension fund.
Director of Finance Mark Roberts said that things like Economic Development are more
difficult to quantify.
Member Rios said that it is important to get information out to create more community
engagement.
City Manager Raulston said that the job of staff is to provide services and the job of the
City Council is to provide input by going out into the community and listening to the
constituents and providing that input to staff.
Mayor Sotelo-Solis said that the goal to Increase Meaningful Outreach through Quality
Engagement) is a feel -good term and needs measurable outcomes.

CITY COUNCIL AND STAFF COMMENTS AND DIRECTION (cont.)
For Goal No. 3 (Improve Emergency Preparedness and Public Noticing) she said that it
is important for training within the City and with other agencies such as school districts
and the Port.
Member Quintero said that all of the Communication and Outreach Goals are rooted in
marketing and said that events should be thoughtfully produced in a timely manner if you
want to create a quality event.
Mayor Sotelo-Solis is glad to see the Climate Action Plan as one priority for Health,
Environment & Sustainability.
Member Rios wants to know more of what the goal might look like to Support a Healthy
Community through Active Living and Healthy Eating. She would like to see exercise
stations at City parks and Health and Education Hubs at some transit stops.
City Manager Raulston explained what it means by Age -Friendly Community. He said that
exercise stations have already been implemented at El Toyon Park.
Director of Finance Mark Roberts said that it requires a lot of discussion on how to create
Health and Education Hubs.
Mayor Sotelo-Solis said that project ideas are already out there but it's about finding being
very selective.
Member Rios would like to see more policy that makes property owners take more
responsibility for properties being rented out to keep them affordable. She said that there
is conflict with preserving historical homes and making homes available and affordable;
that there has to be work in balancing this out.
Member Quintero addressed concerns with practicality in regards to housing and
community development goals; he feels that the Strategic Planning Workshop will be
more of a historic document in the future.
Mayor Sotelo-Solis said that it's about revitalization without gentrification or displacement
and to be obligated to all income levels; new residents means new demand on services.
Director of Housing Authority Carlos Aguirre spoke on the importance of taking into
consideration the residents that may be impacted when it comes to property rehabilitation
and affordability with increasing rents; the housing and security problem needs to be
looked at as a spectrum.
Member Rios said that we should make sure that other entities are engaged in the City's
community programs and events.

CITY COUNCIL AND STAFF COMMENTS AND DIRECTION (cont.)
Member Quintero said that it is a good opportunity to partner with existing businesses
and mega corporations that call National City home and moving forward to get engaged
with the community outside of the government and provide funding in a reliable way.
Mayor Sotelo-Solis spoke on leveraging regional support and thinking outside of the box
in terms of smart technology, etc., within the City and other municipalities.
Member Rios spoke on the importance of all Public Safety Goals.
Mayor Sotelo-Solis said that there should be more Community Emergency Response
Team (CERT) ready members in regards to Public Safety and spoke on community
engagement and pipeline programs for ex -prisoners.
Member Quintero said that the Public Safety goals are responsive and the strategies are
somewhat preventative; he suggested to look more towards prevention and control rather
than police outcomes.
Chief of Emergency Services Frank Parra announced the following: a new CERT class
offered in January 2020; Listos (Spanish Emergency Preparedness Class); a Stop the
Bleed campaign which correlates with the (Automated External Defibrillators) AED
Program; a new campaign for 4th grade elementary school students; and a new 2019
partnership with Point Loma Nazarene University to offer flu vaccinations (the County of
San Diego supported the City with flu vaccines) and diabetes screenings.
Chief of Police Jose Tellez stated that the City has reduced crime by 26% since 2015; but
that involved a lot of prevention pieces. He stated the importance of extending knowledge
to the community and how to help churches by reviewing their safety plans and provide
active shooter training to their staff. Chief Tellez said that there are still areas of
improvement to work on in regards of developing something for the teenagers and young
adults in the community.
Member Rios said that transportation is really an important subject and that the
community needs to be a part of it or the decisions will be made without the community's
input. She praised the Engineering Department for their role in traffic calming
improvements in the City and piggybacking on other agencies or Cities with purchases
and projects.
Vice Mayor Morrison suggested looking into other available options in regards to traffic
and road improvements.
Mayor Sotelo-Solis said that the City is one of the highest dollar receiving agencies in the
State of California for the "Safe Routes to School" grants and said that, in regards to
transportation, it's about changing mindsets and thinking about the narrative.
City Manager Raulston said in regards to infrastructure, that measurable targets will be
set aside and brought to the Council on an annual basis.

CITY COUNCIL AND STAFF COMMENTS AND DIRECTION (cont.)
Director of Engineering/Public Works Steve Manganiello said that there were a lot of good
points made by the Council and supports their feedback and the transportation goals. He
said that there is money in active transportation and that money is leveraged for repairing
streets, etc.
City Manager Raulston summarized by stating that the intent is to adopt the Strategic
Plan by the end of the year through a resolution which starts the budget process and the
budget is the policy document to have a work plan that connects to the Strategic Plan to
efficiently and effectively manage City resources.
PUBLIC COMMENTS
Joan Rincon, National City, suggested that the City focus on preventing additional
homelessness issues.
Jacqueline Reynoso, National City Chamber of Commerce, encouraged the City to
participate in a Comprehensive Marketing Plan, formalize community partnerships; to
consider incentive programs in partnership with regional partners; to invest more time into
the Climate Action Plan, and to look into other opportunities to tie into Business Licenses

EXPLANATION
On December 19, 2017, per City Council Resolution No. 2017-239, the City of National
City entered into an Agreement with West Coast Arborists, Inc. (WCA), a highly
qualified and reputable contractor in the field of urban forestry, to provide assistance to
the City's Park Maintenance staff with addressing the growing backlog of tree trimming
requests for service. In conjunction with implementation of a grid -based tree trimming
program, WCA proved to be effective in assisting City crews with clearing the backlog,
which allowed City crews to focus on maintaining their tree trimming schedule.
The grid program provides a systematic approach to ensuring that trees citywide
receive regular maintenance in a manner that maximizes staff efficiency, while providing
a consistent schedule for the general public. While the grid program has proven to be
effective, emergency and specialized work (i.e. stump grinding, tree removals, trimming
large palm trees, etc.) continues to place high demands on staff and often involves
specialized skills and equipment beyond the City's resources. WCA has proven to be a
valuable asset by providing specialized services in a timely manner. As part of the FY
2020 annual budget, City Council adopted the maintenance and operating budget for
Public Works Parks Division, which includes $90,000 for contract tree trimming support
services.
National City Municipal Code (NCMC) Section 2,60.260 provides authority to the
purchasing agent to join with other public jurisdictions to take advantage of cooperative
purchasing opportunities, including but not limited to any federal, state or local agency
pricing program or structure that is determined by the purchasing agent to allow a
procurement that is in the best interests of the City. The purchasing agent may buy
directly from a vendor at a price established through competitive bidding by another
public agency whose procedures have been determined by the purchasing agent to be
in substantial compliance with the City's procurement procedures, irrespective of the
contracting limits of that jurisdiction or agency, even if the City had not initially joined
with that public agency in the cooperative purchase.
National City's Purchasing staff has confirmed that the City of Encinitas' Urban Forestry
Maintenance Services contract with WCA was competitively bid through an RFP
process, and that the City of Encinitas' procurement procedures are in substantial
compliance with those of the City of National City. On January 1, 2018, the City of
Encinitas entered into a four year agreement with WCA for Urban Forest Maintenance
Services, which expires on January 7, 2022. The contract may be extended with a total
of two separate, three-year options.
Staff requests that City Council waive the formal bid process pursuant to National City
Municipal Code Section 2.60.260 regarding cooperative purchasing and authorize the
Mayor to execute a new Agreement with West Coast Arborists, Inc., for specialized tree
trimming, removal, and planting services, effective November 1, 2019 through January
7, 2022, for an amount not to exceed $90,000 by piggybacking onto the City of
Encinitas' Urban Forestry Maintenance Services Contract.

hiring as many employees, or SUBCONSULTANTS, as the CONSULTANT may deem
necessary for the proper and efficient performance of this Agreement. All agreements by
CONSULTANT with its SUBCONSULTANT(S) shall require the SUBCONSULTANT(S) to
adhere to the applicable terms of this Agreement.

any control over the conduct of the CONSULTANT or any of the CONSULTANT'S employees,
except as set forth in this Agreement. The CONSULTANT, or the CONSULTANT'S agents,
servants, or employees are not in any manner agents, servants, or employees of the CITY. The
CONSULTANT and its agents, servants, and employees are wholly independent from the CITY
and CONSULTANT'S obligations to the CITY are solely prescribed by this Agreement.

performance of the services to be provided herein, shall comply with all applicable state and

products, materials, processes or treatments identified in the project documents prepared for the

RE: Tree Maintenance Agreement
Dear Mr. Uribe,
Over the past several years, West Coast Arborists, Inc. (WCA) and the City of National City have
forged a very productive and cohesive working relationship. Today our common goal remains
the same; to preserve the integrity and health of the City's urban forest.
As we begin 2020, we propose to provide tree maintenance services under a "piggyback"
approach on the City of Encinitas' current contract. The City of Encinitas, not too long ago,
approved a new multi -year contract beginning January 1, 2018.
The rates found under Encinitas' contract are competitive among the industry, particularly with
grid tree pruning, tree removal, and tree planting. As a partner with the City of National City
under their grant planting project, the competitive rates for tree planting services has served
the City well.
We agree to offer the same unit prices, terms and conditions as Encinitas' current contract.
Attached to this letter are copies of Encinitas' RFP, Council Agenda Report and Price Schedule.
Please note that Encinitas' Agreement contains a Cooperative Purchasing Provision that allows
other agencies to piggyback. As part of this Agreement, we agree to waive all annual service
fees for our tree inventory software program called ArborAccess.

ATTACHMENT "A" CONTRACTOR'S SCOPE OF WORK
Contractor: West Coast Arboristst Inc.
The requirement of this Contract is to provide professional Urban Forestry Maintenance Services for
planting, pruning, trimming, staking, raising, removal, disposal, stump grinding and chipping,
inventorying, documenting and all other services required to maintain the City of Encinitas trees in a
safe, attractive and overall healthy condition.
The City proposes to enter into a Contract with a qualified Contractor who is proactive in their work and
can meet the requirements set forth in this proposal package. The Contractor will be required to
perform and complete the proposed Urban Forestry Maintenance Services in a thorough and
professional manner, and to provide all labor, tools, equipment, materials and supplies necessary to
complete the work according to generally accepted International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) practices
and standards, and in a timely manner that will meet the City's requirements. The successful proposer
will be required to comply with all current prevailing wage requirements as set forth In the Labor Code
administered by the Department of industrial Relations.
There are two main program goals. First, the City requires an update to the current tree inventory and
database, which includes updating and maintaining records throughout the term of the Contract.
Second, the City requires an annual tree maintenance program to support and develop its Urban Forest.
The following requirements are meant to meet these goals.
A. Tree Inventory
1. Upon Contract award, the successful Proposer shall be required to provide a complete
update of the City's tree inventory at no additional cost to the City and submit the
completed inventory to the City within ninety (90) days of the Contract award. The new
inventory shall capture all trees within the Public Rights of Way, new tree sites ,as well as,
trees in parks, open space areas and city facilities. The Contractor shall provide, at no
additional cost to the City, software support to the City for the entire term of the Contract.
The Contractor shall provide the City with recommendations for tree maintenance, tree
health care, recommended planting locations, and recommended removals. Failure to meet
and maintain the requirements for the computerized tree inventory system shall be grounds
for immediate termination of the Contract.
2. Tree Software Program - The Contractor shall operate and maintain, at no additional cost to
the City, a computerized internet based urban forestry management program that includes,
but is not limited to, municipal tree inventory, ability to send online work requests for
services, work order tracking, work histories and the ability to update site specific tree data
and work records, Invoices tracking and job balances, reports, value of the urban forest, GPS
accessibility, and various other computer information management system tools.
3. Record Keeping - The Contractor will provide, at no additional cost to the City, access to a
record keeping system consisting of a password protected Internet -driven tracking program
and internet- based software program that allows the City to maintain information about its
tree population, including the description of each tree by species, height, diameter, work
history, and tree and planting site location. The program shall have the capability to produce
Urban Forest Maintenance Services 12 October 5, 2017
RFP 2017-06
161 of 264
detailed listings of trees and site information, work histories, service requests, summary
reports and pictures of City tree species.
4. GPS - Since the City of Encinitas already has a tree inventory in GIS, the City's GIS Division
will provide the current tree inventory feature class (SQL table) to the contractor as a
starting point. This includes but is not limited to all publicly owned trees on street rights -of -
way, parks and open spaces such as medians, streetscapes, etc.
The contractor shall then track the maintenance and characteristic information of the trees
in the City of Encinitas' tree inventory feature class in ArcGJS version 10. Or, the contractor
shall incorporate the City's tree inventory FacilitylD field into their own database, and
include x and y (lat/long) fields necessary to map the trees in GIS.
For on -going data maintenance, when a new tree is planted, the new tree site will be added
as a record to the tree inventory, and will include the latitude/longitude coordinates
(collected by the contractor using a Global Positioning System (GPS) device with minimum
sub -meter accuracy). Lat/long coordinates shall be included at the time a new record is
added, and will not be input at a later date through a bulk update process. Trees that are
removed will not be deleted from the tree inventory, but will be coded as 'vacant'.
At required intervals, the contractor shall provide an ArcGIS version 10 file or personal
geodatabase containing the updated tree feature class, which will be reconciled with the
City GIS tree inventory. Or, the contractor may provide an Excel spreadsheet or Access
database table containing updated information that can be joined to the City's GIS tree
inventory based on FacilitylD. If the contractor provides their own updated tree inventory
database to the City, there will be a one-time requirement to provide a data dictionary of
fields containing tree maintenance and tree characteristic information that corresponds to
similar fields in the City's GIS tree inventory, so that the City is confident that accurate data
synchronization/updating can occur.
5. Tree Inventories and Developing inventory Databases - The program should have specialized
reports designed specifically for City representatives' needs. The program should be
developed based on the needs of the City and allow the City to modify and structure the
program to address its specific needs. The user-friendly program should allow customers to
generate a variety of reports quickly.
6. Training and Support - The Contractor shall provide, at no additional cost to the City,
training and support on the software system they provide for the entire term of the
contract. Contractor shall provide training to designated City staff during the hours of 7:00
A.M. to 4:30 P.M. Monday through Friday. The Contractor shall be readily available by

The Engineering & Public Works Department directly oversees multiple
transportation grant programs administered by Caltrans. Staff often uses
consultant services to assist with project engineering and design. As a condition
of approval for use of State and Federal funds for consultant services, the Code
of Federal Regulations requires that "subrecipients adopt written policies and
procedures prescribed by the awarding State Transportation Agency for the
procurement, management, and administration of engineering and design related
consultant services in accordance with applicable Federal and State laws and
regulations." Instead of each City adopting their own procedures, Caltrans has
developed the Local Assistance Procedures Manual (LAPM), Chapter 10
Consultant Selection, "which sets forth policies and procedures for procurements
and managements of contracts for engineering and design related consultant
services contracts on federal and state funded transportation projects to ensure
compliance with applicable Federal and State laws and regulations."
In order for the City to ensure compliance with Federal and State laws and
regulations pertaining to use of consultant services on State and Federal funded
transportation projects, staff recommends that the City Council adopt Caltrans
LAPM, Chapter 10 Consultant Selection, and any updates thereto.

EXPLANATION
In July 2018, the San Diego Associations of Governments (SANDAG) awarded a $2.5 million
Smart Growth Incentive Program (SGIP) grant to the City of National City to design and
construct the Sweetwater Road Protected Bikeway project. The project will provide nearly 1.2
miles of protected bike facilities along Sweetwater Road and extend the Class I bike path on
Plaza Bonita Road to Sweetwater Road (0.4 miles). The project will include a road diet, bicycle -
friendly intersection improvements, and pedestrian enhancements. The proposed bicycle
facilities will directly link the City's bike network to the regional network.
In order to complete final design for the portion of the bikeway project within the Caltrans right of
way along Sweetwater Road at 1-805, staff has requested survey data and right of way files from
Caltrans. Since Caltrans has determined that the information requested is "confidential,
privileged, protected, or exempted from public inspection," they are requiring the City to
execute a Confidentiality and Hold Harmless Agreement before they can release the
information. The terms and conditions of the Agreement are attached.

EXPLANATION
Ms. Patti Finnegan, owner of Niederfrank's Ice Cream, located at 726 °A" Avenue, has
requested time restricted parking on the west side of "A" Avenue between E. 7th Street
and E. 8th Street in order to increase parking turnover for customers. Ms. Finnegan
stated that customers are unable to find on -street parking nearby and are forced to drive
out of the area in order to find available parking. Furthermore, Ms. Finnegan stated that
parking spaces in front of her business are frequently occupied by vehicles parking all
day and the installation of 15-minute parking spaces would increase parking turnover for
her customers and allow for more efficient parking enforcement. Ms. Finnegan also
stated that the owners of the two neighboring businesses located just north of
Niederfrank's Ice Cream at 724 "A" Avenue (National Sewing Machines) and 704 "A"
Avenue (Vee Parts & Accessories) were also in favor of having 15-minute parking on
the west side of the block.
Staff visited the site and confirmed that there are 17 unrestricted angle parking spaces
on the west side of "A" Avenue, between E. 7th Street and E. 8th Street. Staff notified all
of the businesses and property owners located on the west side of the block, inviting
them to attend the Traffic Safety Committee Meeting and/or contact staff with any
questions. The business currently under construction on the northwest corner of "A"
Avenue and E. 8th Street indicated they are not interested in time -restricted parking at
this time. Therefore, only the 12 angle parking spaces in front of Niederfrank's Ice
Cream, National Sewing Machines and Vee Parts & Accessories are being considered
for conversion to time -restricted parking at this time.
This item was presented to the Traffic Safety Committee on December 11, 2019. Ms.
Mary Ellen Faught, a representative of Niederfrank's Ice Cream, was in attendance to
speak in support of the item. The Traffic Safety Committee members asked Ms. Faught
if she would consider changing her proposal from "15-minute parking" to "30-minute
parking" to allow sufficient time for customers to frequent the neighboring businesses.
Ms. Faught agreed to change her request from "15-minute parking" to "30-minute
parking". Afterwards, the Traffic Safety Committee voted unanimously to recommend
the installation of "30-minute parking" signs for 12 parking spaces located on the west
side of "A" Avenue, south of E. 7th Street, in front of Niederfrank's Ice Cream, National
Sewing Machines and Vee Parts & Accessories to increase parking turnover for
customers and allow for more efficient parking enforcement.
If approved by City Council, all work will be performed by City Public Works.

Finnegan stated that parking spaces in front of her business are frequently occupied by
vehicles all day and the installation of 15-minute parking spaces will increase parking

Finnegan also stated that the two businesses "National Sewing Machines" and "Vee
Parts & Accessories" located on the north side of Niederfrank would like to have the 15-
minute parking spaces in front of their businesses as well.
Staff visited the site and verified that Niederfrank does not have off-street parking. There
are approximately 220 feet of unrestricted angled parking (equal to seventeen (17)
parking spaces) in front of the buildings located on the west side of "A" Avenue, between
E. 7th Street and E. 8th Street. However, there are approximately 35 feet (equal to three
(3) parking spaces) of unrestricted angled parking available directly in front of
Niederfrank.
Staff spoke with the representative of "Vee Parts & Accessories" located on the north
side of Niederfrank and they confirmed that parking spaces in front of the business are
frequently occupied by vehicles all day and agreed that the installation of 15-minute
parking spaces will increase parking turnover for their customers. Staff was unable to
speak with the representative of "National Sewing Machines". However, staff notified all
of the businesses and property owners located on the west side of "A" Avenue, between
E. 7th Street and E. 8th Street, inviting them to attend the Traffic Safety Committee
Meeting and/or contact staff with any questions. Staff measured the curb side in front of

EXPLANATION
Mr, Luis Quiambao, representative of the Church "Ni Christo" (Church) located at 2201
E. 8th Street has requested the installation of a white curb "Passenger Loading Zone"
on the east side of "V" Avenue in front of the Church in order to provide a safer loading
and unloading area for the members of the Church during mass hours. Mr. Quiambao
stated that in addition to mass, the Church has several weekly activities that are
attended by many members. Mr. Quiambao stated that since all of the on -street parking
spaces located in front of the Church are occupied, vehicles traveling northbound must
to stop in the middle of "V" Avenue in order to drop off passengers, creating an unsafe
condition.
In addition, Mr. Quiambao stated that this creates traffic congestion at the intersection
where the Church is located because several vehicles must queue in the middle of "V"
Avenue during the drop-off activity. Mr. Quiambao stated that the installation of a white
curb "Passenger Loading Zone" in front of the Church would make passenger loading
and unloading easier and safer, reducing traffic congestion at the intersection. In
addition, Mr. Quiambao stated that he would like to have another white curb "Passenger
Loading Zone" on the west side of V Avenue, in front of the parking lot of the Church,
since there is a building located at 2219 E. 8th Street that is utilized by the Church for
events on a weekly basis.
Staff visited the site and verified that the Church is located on the northeast corner of E.
8th Street and "V" Avenue. The Church has three different off-street parking lots (see
location map). Parking lot #1 is located on the southwest side of the Church and has six
parking spaces, including four disabled parking spaces. Parking lot #2 is located on the
west side of "V" Avenue, south of the building located at 2219 E. 8th Street and has 56
parking spaces, including four disabled parking spaces. Parking lot #3 is located on the
west side of "V" Avenue, north of the building located at 2219 E. 8th Street and has 28
parking spaces.
Staff agreed that the installation of a white curb "Passenger Loading Zone" on the east
side of "V" Avenue in front of the Church would provide a safe loading and unloading
area for Church members during mass hours. However, staff deferred to the Traffic
Safety Committee regarding the request to install a white curb "Passenger Loading
Zone" on the west side of "V" Avenue, in front of parking lot #2, since vehicles could use
parking lot #2 for the passenger loading and unloading in order to access the building
located at 2219 E. 8th Street.
This item was presented to the Traffic Safety Committee on December 11, 2019. Staff
sent notices to the Church representatives inviting them to attend the Traffic Safety
Committee Meeting and/or contact staff with any questions. Mr. Luis Quiambao and Mr.
Albert Almazan were in attendance to speak in support of the item.
After discussing the item, the Traffic Safety Committee voted unanimously in support of
staff's recommendation to install 36 feet of white curb "3-Minute Passenger Loading" on
the east side of "V" Avenue in front of the Church "Ni Christo" located at 2201 E. 8th
195 of 264
Street. However, the Traffic Safety Committee voted unanimously against the option to
install a white curb "Passenger Loading Zone" on the west side of "V" Avenue, in front of
parking lot #2 since vehicles can use the parking lot for passenger loading and
unloading to access the building located at 2219 E. 8th Street.
It should be noted that if the white curb "3-Minute Passenger Loading" is installed, the
parking restriction will be in effect 24-hours a day.
If approved by City Council, all work will be performed by City Public Works.

in front of the Church would make passenger loading and unloading easier and safer,
reducing the traffic congestion at the intersection. In addition, Mr. Quiambao stated that he
would like to have another white curb "Passenger Loading Zone" located on the west side
of V Avenue, in front of the parking lot of the Church since there is a building located at
2219 E. 8t" Street that is utilized by the Church for events on a weekly basis.
Staff visited the site and verified that the Church is located on the northeast corner between
E. 8th Street and "V" Avenue. The Church has three different off-street parking lots (see
location map). Parking lot no. #1 is located on the southwest side of the Church with six (6)
parking spaces, including four (4) disabled parking spaces. Parking lot no. #2 is located on
the west side of "V" Avenue, south of the building located at 2219 E. 8t" Street with fifty-six
(56) parking spaces, including four (4) disabled parking spaces. Parking lot no. #3 is
located on the west side of "V" Avenue, north of the building located at 2219 E. 8t" Street
with twenty-eight (28) parking spaces.
Staff agrees that the installation of a white curb "Passenger Loading Zone" located on the
east side of "V" Avenue in front of the Church is necessary since it will provide a safer
loading and unloading area for members of the Church during mass hours. However, Staff
defers to the Traffic Safety Committee for the recommendation to install a white curb
"Passenger Loading Zone" located on the west side of "V" Avenue, in front of parking lot
no. #2 since vehicles can use parking lot no. #2 for the passenger loading and unloading in
order to access the building located at 2219 E. 81" Street.

Staff notified the Church representatives to attend the Traffic Safety Committee Meeting
and/or contact staff with any questions.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Based on evaluation of existing conditions, staff recommends the installation of 36 feet of
white curb "Passenger Loading Zone" on the east side of "V" Avenue in front of the Church
"Ni Christo" located at 2201 E. 8th street. Furthermore, Staff defers to the Traffic Safety
Committee for the recommendation to install 20 feet of white curb "Passenger Loading
Zone" located on the west side of "V" Avenue, in front of parking lot no. #2.
If approved by City Council, all work will be performed by City Public Works.

ITEM TITLE:
Resolution adding the property located at 555 East 1st Street to the City's List of Identified Historic

EXPLANATION:
The Land Use Code, Chapter 18.12.160 (Historic Properties) encourages the preservation of properties
of historical significance and provides for the maintenance of a list of historic properties. The City
Council is tasked with periodically updating the list, either by resolution or upon request by a property
owner of a potentially historic property. As of October 2019, there are 55 properties contained on the
Historic Sites List. The property owner of 555 East 1st Street is requesting that the Council add their
property to the list and has provided documentation that substantiates the significance of the residence.
The home is an excellent example of Prairie style architecture and was built by Ed Willoughby, the first
president of the National City Chamber of Commerce. The applicant has concurrently applied for a Mills
Act tax reduction, also on tonight's agenda.
The attached Background Report provides a description of the proposal in detail.

BACKGROUND REPORT
Built in 1919 by Ed and Estella Willoughby, this house is an excellent example of
Prairie Style architecture, described below. The home is situated at the
intersection of East 1st Street and "F" Avenue, where "F" Avenue starts and
heads south (see attached overhead view). This provides for a visual anchor
down the corridor of "F" Avenue. The main (front) home is approximately 2,800
square feet in size with three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a formal dining, den,
and more. The secondary (rear) home is approximately 1,000 square feet in size
with two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a den.
The residence is significant both in its architectural style and in its occupants:
The Prairie style is usually marked by horizontal lines, flat or hipped roofs with
broad overhanging eaves, windows grouped in horizontal bands, integration with
the landscape, solid construction, craftsmanship, and discipline in the use of
ornament. Horizontal lines were thought to evoke and relate to the wide, flat,
treeless expanses of America's native prairie landscape.
The owner who originally built this home, Ed Willoughby, was the first president
of the National City Chamber of Commerce in 1911 & 1912 and was a significant
founder of banking and commerce in National City; Mr. Willoughby was the
president of National City State Bank in National City in 1912.
The current owners and applicants for this request have owned the home for
approximately four years and are responsible for its current condition. The
applicants are looking to have the property added to the City's List of Identified
Historic Sites in order to continue to be good stewards of the property. In
addition, the owners are pursuing a Mills Act tax reduction, which is also on
tonight's agenda.
The Land Use Code does not provide criteria for the placing a property on the
list, however typically a potential historic property should meet the criteria set out
by the Office of Historic Preservation. Per the Office of Historic Preservation, a
historic resource should be over 50 years old and meet, at a minimum, one of the
following criteria:
A. It is associated with events that have made a significant contribution to
local or regional history;
B. It is associated with the lives of persons important to local, California or
national history;
ATTACHMENT 1
224 of 264
C. It embodies the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, region, or
method of construction or represents the work of a master or possesses
high artistic values;
D. It has yield, or has the potential to yield, information important to the
prehistory or history of the local area, California, or the nation.
The proposed historic resource meets criteria B. and C. above. The property
meets criterion B. as it is associated with Ed Willoughby, the first president of the
National City Chamber of Commerce and President of National City State Bank.
The structure also meets criteria C. as an example of a well-preserved Prairie
style architecture constructed when the arts and crafts style movement was just
taking hold in National City.
The property was not included in either the 1989 or 1994 historic properties
surveys, most likely due to the condition of the property at that time. However, in
a database compile in 2010 for the City by Tierra Environmental Services, Inc.,
the property was listed and noted as "E", or excellent.
It is probable that, given its noted condition, the property would be added to the
list if the City Council chose to initiate a "phase two" of adding multiple properties
to the list (as most recently undertaken in October 2019). However, it is unknown
if and when this process may happen. Therefore, the applicant has self -initiated
the process and paid a fee to do so. Municipal Code section 18.12.160 (B) (2)
allows for changes to the historic properties list either by initiation by resolution
of the City Council or by application of the owner, as is the case here.
Based on the information prepared regarding the significance of the property and
its overall contribution to National City, staff recommends that the Council
approve the request to place the property on the List of Identified Historic Sites.

State Bank in National City. Ed Willoughby was a significant founder of banking and commerce
in National City.
This fine home is significant in architectural style and in its occupants.
My wife and I have owned this homes for approximately 4 years and have put a labor of love
into it cleaning it up and celebrating its history. We are now raising a family here and want to
continue to be good stewards of this special residence.
Sincerely,
Justin & Heather Tjalma

(Resolution of the City Council of the City of National City authorizing the Mayor to execute a Mills Act

EXPLANATION:
The property owner of 555 East 1st Street is requesting a Mills Act contract. The structure is a two-story Prairie
style home located on a 14,374 square -foot lot. The property is in the Small Lot Residential (RS-2) zone.
Mills Act contracts are historic preservation tools that provide property tax savings for owners in exchange for a
commitment to maintain and/or restore a historic structure. This property will be eligible once added to the City's list
of historic properties, which is addressed through a separate item on tonight's agenda. The property owner has
been continually restoring the property since it was purchased approximately four years ago. The residence is now
in its fully restored condition. The attached Maintenance Plan lists the proposed weekly, monthly, and annual items
that will be undertaken. The Mills Act contract is valid for 10 years and automatically extends for one year on the
anniversary date. The City may cancel the contract if breached or opt not to renew it if proper notice is provided.
There are currently 15 properties in the City in the Mills Act Program.
According to the San Diego County Assessor, there will be a reduction of approximately 30% in the assessed
value of the property, which translates into a property tax reduction of about $2,180 annually with respect to the
"1 %" portion of the property tax bill (the amount that comes to the City). Because the property lies within the
former redevelopment area, this reduction will be to property taxes available to the Successor Agency. The loss
to the Successor Agency would in turn impact the amount of residual balance available for distribution to other
agencies, including the City whose share would be about $440.
FINANCIAL STATEMENT: APPROVED: 11
ACCOUNT NO. APPROVED:
Finance
MIS
The action will result in a reduction in annual Successor Agency property tax revenue of approximately
$2,180. The impact on the City would be an approximate loss of $440 in residual balance distribution
revenue from the Successor Agency.

report on the status of the housing element of its general plan and progress in its implementation. The
report is due on April 1 for the previous calendar year and is submitted to the Department of Housing and
Community Development and the Governor's Office of Planning and Research. The annual progress
report fulfills state housing law requirements to report certain information, including the progress in
meeting the City's share of the Regional Housing Needs Assessment. Furthermore, submitting the report
to the state ensures that the City is eligible for grants and other funding sources that require the filing of
the report. The report is also submitted to the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) to

BACKGROUND REPORT
Government Code section 65400 requires that each city and county prepare an annual
progress report (APR) on the status of the housing element of its general plan and
progress in its implementation using forms and definitions adopted by the Department of
Housing and Community Development (HCD). The forms are used for satisfying the
reporting requirements of Government Code section 65400, subdivision (a)(2).
The forms and instructions, originally adopted March 27, 2010, have been updated to
incorporate new APR requirements pursuant to Chapter 374, Statutes of 2017 (Assembly
Bill 879) and Chapter 366, Statutes of 2017 (Senate Bill 35). The APR is submitted to the
Department of Housing and Community Development and the Governor's Office of
Planning and Research (OPR) on or before April 1 of each year using the forms and
tables specified by HCD.
Providing the report to HCD and OPR fulfills state housing law requirements to report
certain information, including the progress in meeting the City's share of the Regional
Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA). Furthermore, submitting the APR to the state
ensures that the City is eligible for grants and other funding sources that require filing of
the report. The report is also submitted to the San Diego Association of Governments to
qualify for certain discretionary funds administered by SANDAG.
The APR consists of the following tables:
• TABLE A — Housing Development Applications Submitted
Table A includes discretionary and ministerial entitlements. In 2019, no
discretionary entitlements were needed; only ministerial (building) permits were
required. Building permit applications were submitted for a total of 166 units
within 10 projects in 2019: 12 single-family detached units; 5 accessory dwelling
units; and 149 multi -family units.
• TABLE A2 — Annual Building Activity Report Summary - New Construction,
Entitled, Permits, and Completed Units.
Table A2 summarizes entitlements, permits, and completion of units during the
reporting period. Building permits were issued for 166 units within 10 projects;
only one of those units received final approval for occupancy during the 2019
reporting period.
• TABLE B — Regional Housing Needs Allocation Progress — Permitted Units
Issued By Affordability.
Table B shows the City's progress in achieving its RHNA allocation during the
housing element planning period (2013-2021). The total (beginning) RHNA
allocation is 1,863 units. Through 2019, 795 units have been permitted. The
remaining need is 1,068 units.

245 of 264
• TABLE C — Sites Identified or Rezoned to Accommodate Shortfall Housing Need.
This requirement does not apply to the City since adequate sites were identified
in the adopted Housing Element.
• TABLE D — Program Implementation Status pursuant to Government Code
section 65583.
Table D provides the status of the implementation of programs in the adopted
Housing Element.
• TABLE E — Commercial Development Bonus Approved pursuant to Government
Code section 65915.7.
No units were produced in the City using this provision of the Government Code.
• TABLE F Units Rehabilitated, Preserved and Acquired for Alternative Adequate
Sites pursuant to Government Code section 65583.1, subdivision (c)(2).
No units were produced in the City using this provision of the Government Code.
• TABLE G Locally Owned Lands Included in the Housing Element Sites Inventory
that have been sold, leased, or otherwise disposed of.
One property (130 East 8th Street) was disposed of during the 2019 reporting
period. The property was transferred to a developer, Protea National City, LLC.
Units are identified by affordability by household income as established by HCD's income
limit charts. The household income categories are based on the area median income
(AMI) for San Diego County, which was $86,300 for a family of four in 2019.
• Very low-income households (50% AMI)
• Low-income households (80% AMI)
• Moderate -income households (120% AMI)
• Above -moderate households (>120% AMI)
Unit types are categorized as one of the following:
• Single-family detached units
• Single-family attached units
• Two to four unit structure
• Five or more unit structure
• Accessory dwelling unit
• Mobile home/manufactured home
Units are identified as either proposed or planned at initial occupancy for either renter
occupant (R) or owner occupant (0) where apparent at the time of project application.

BACKGROUND REPORT
The City of National City currently prohibits all commercial cannabis activity, including cultivation,
manufacturing, distribution, retail and delivery, and testing facilities. This prohibition is codified in Section
10.14.020 of the National City Municipal Code ("Commercial marijuana activity —Prohibited").
Over the course of the past year the City has been exploring options for allowing limited commercial
cannabis activity. On June 18, 2019 City Council authorized staff to retain the services of HdL to assist
with community outreach and development of a draft cannabis ordinance, an application review process
and cost recovery fees. HdL worked with City staff to develop an initial evaluation of the potential cannabis
industry in the City, including the number of different types of cannabis businesses that may be expected
to locate in the City and their potential impacts.
On September 17, 2019, HdL presented its initial findings to the City Council, after which the Council
provided direction to staff to develop an ordinance that would allow up to three cannabis businesses, to be
located in the City's industrial zones. The Council did not limit the types of cannabis businesses that would
be allowed but retail uses would only be permitted as an accessory use to cultivation, manufacturing or
distribution, due to existing restrictions in the industrial zone. The City also made clear that each of these
three businesses may conduct multiple cannabis activities at a single location, so that they could each
conceivably include a combination of cultivation, manufacturing, distribution and retail. The City
determined to generate revenue from these businesses through development agreements rather than a
cannabis tax.
HdL further assisted the City in developing a survey to gather input from the community to help guide the
development of its cannabis regulatory program, including community impacts to be addressed through
regulations and programs to be funded through community benefit fees. As part of the City's Outreach
October campaign, the survey was posted online from October 16th through November 5th and was also
provided in hardcopy form at an October 22nd community workshop on cannabis issues.
Staff is returning to council to provide a detailed fiscal analysis based on the direction received at the
September 17th meeting and results of the community workshop and survey. Based on the results of the
fiscal analysis and cannabis outreach, staff will also be seeking direction from council on whether or not to
include an additional 3 locations in the Commercial Tourism zone west of I-5 in which commercial cannabis
operations may be permitted and include consumption lounges as an allowable business type in the
ordinance.
Discussion Item #1: Fiscal Analysis To further assist with development of its cannabis program, the City
has requested that HdL provide a more detailed fiscal analysis to specifically consider the amount of
revenue that could be generated through a community benefits fee as a part of the development agreement
for each of the 3 permitted cannabis businesses. The City has requested that this analysis also provide
recommended community benefits fees or a fee structure that would approximate the same fiscal burden
that would be imposed on cannabis businesses using a cannabis business tax with common tax rates, so as
to be competitive with other jurisdictions. This study also includes a discussion of general economic
impacts in the form of jobs, supporting businesses, and other economic activity.
Discussion Item #2: Inclusion of Consumption Lounges with an Adult -Use Retail License Staff is
seeking direction on expanding the proposed number of cannabis business locations from 3 to 6 with 3

remaining in the originally proposed Industrial Zone and 3 being added to the areas zoned Commercial
Tourism (CT) in the Marina District west of 1-5.
Discussion Item #3: Next Steps If council directs staff to move forward with the recommendations as
presented, staff will return with a detailed Commercial Cannabis Ordinance and changes to title
18.30.340-Commecial marijuana activity. The detailed ordinance will address the rules and regulations
surrounding commercial cannabis activity within the city, initial application procedures and security
requirements. Following the adoption of an ordinance staff will begin drafting a boiler plate Development
Agreement, outline a fee structure for full cost recovery of the application and review process and
develop rates for each commercial cannabis activity type as allowed in the Commercial Cannabis
Ordinance.
