The World Health Organization has declared the outbreak a global
pandemic and local and state emergencies have been declared
providing reprieve from certain public meeting laws such as the
Brown Act.
As a result, the City Council Meeting will occur only online to ensure
the safety of City residents, employees and the communities we serve.

Library Mission
Recognizing the cultural, linguistic, and economic diversity of our community, the National City Public
Library serves the informational, educational, social, and recreational needs of all the residents of the

The Year in Review
The past year continued to reflect the hard work and dedication of library staff and volunteers, the
support of the Friends of the Library, and the leadership of the Board of Trustees and City Council.
The Library's main mission is to share and give access to learning and resources by teaching avid
minds 21st century skills through introduction of more emerging technologies.
The Library was closed due to COVID-19 at the beginning of the fiscal year and was offering modified
library services and virtual programming. The Library re -opened the Computer Lab in August 2020
until it was closed in early 2021 when the County fell back into the most restrictive tier of the State's
Coronavirus "Blueprint" framework. Although curbside service for pickup of library materials and
phone reference services were still being maintained, the Library quickly shifted to technology to
curate services and resources to patrons. Virtual offerings such as electronic books and magazines,
streaming platforms, and Zoom for tutoring and programs took center stage. The Library re -opened to
the public for most services in mid -June 2021.
The statistics on the following page indicate that our e-card program and e-resources collection
showed a dramatic increase. The e-resources collection size doubled during the past year due to the
acquisition of consortium -led e-books and e-audio. E-cards allowed library patrons to fully utilize e-
resources during the Library's closure.

STEAM Programs
Starting in February 2021, the Library partnered
with local school districts, FLEET Science Cente
Stephen Birch Aquarium and many other co-
partners of the National City STEAM
Collaborative to create and provide the
National City 16 Weeks of STEAM
programming. The Library was instrumental
in registering participants for this important
program, resulting in the registration of over
700 National City children.
The Friends of the Library partnered with
staff to fund craft kits and STEAM kits
available for pick-up by library patrons to use at
home.
Starting in March 2021, the Library partnered with
UCSD Extension/Sally Ride Science to offer virtual
STEAM programming with a fellowship for five
programs to 100 participants.
The Tech Lab still provided print shop capabilities
by providing 3D Printing for over 20 patrons who sent in

Library Programs
Cars lined up in the parking lot for the
Halloween Booktacular event in October.
With the help of the Council on Literacy and
the Molina foundation, Library staff
distributed books to our community's
children during Halloween - our first book
drive-thru giveaway. A total of 582 book
bags were distributed to families in 259 cars
at our drive-thru event!
Holly Jolly Book Fest
The Holly Jolly Book Fest was a virtual event that featured Santa and his Elf. Children were
able to submit their letters to Santa which were read "on the air" and then received a free book.

Volunteer Recognition
Thank You to our
Volunteers!
Diversity Book Club
The new Diversity Book Club was put
together by the library's Teen
Leadership Committee. With this
book club, staff are hoping to
spotlight books that represent diverse
voices and new narratives that aren't
often represented in mainstream
publications. Diverse voices can
include LGBTQ characters,
characters with a disability, immigrant
or indigenous voices and books by
and about people of color.
As we could not have a proper Volunteer
Appreciation Night Dinner for our amazing
Tutor Volunteers, we instead made "Thank
You" Appreciation Bags for our Tutors to
come and pick up. Each bag contained
items that could be used for everyday use
and tutoring (face mask, pens, literacy t-
shirt, water bottle, flash drive, earbuds).
Several of our dedicated tutors continued
through these difficult times to help our
community members reach their goals. A
special note of Congratulations to Cris
Mendez who received our first Tutor of the
Year award!

Our Literacy Program offers a unique setting for adults to achieve their literacy goals, earn high school
diplomas and career certificates, and develop the workforce readiness skills they need to succeed in
the 21st century. Due to COVID-19, this program was challenged to maintain classes and services, but
move them to a virtual environment.
All classes and services were held virtually this past year. Regular operation consists of one-on-one
tutoring or small group instruction sessions. Our literacy program takes things a few notches higher
by offering a plethora of classes and workshops:
❖ Adult Basic Education (ABE) - classes are for adults at the elementary level (to grade 8) and
focus on basic literacy and computational skills.
❖ Adult Literacy programs - help for English-speaking adults to improve their reading, writing,
and communication proficiency and math skills to reach their potential as workers, parents,
community members, and life-long learners.
❖ English as a Second Language (ESL) - Four sessions of Basic ESL classes for non-native
English-speaking adults who want to improve their writing and writing skills were held virtually.
Each session was two months in length.
❖ Workforce Literacy - Tutors held virtual programs and services that helped adults find
employment, move into a new job or enter trade -based training programs.
❖ Computer Literacy - Four 6-week classes were held on each of the following topics: basic
computer skills, Excel basics, Zoom Basics, and PowerPoint basics. The classes were
attended by 267 learners.
❖ Preparation for various tests/exams such as GED (General Educational Development), HiSet
(High School Equivalency Test), ASVAB (Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery),
Citizenship Exam.
❖ In addition to GED and HiSET test preparation tutoring, Career Online High School, an
educational service offered by Smart Horizons and endorsed by the California State Library,
allows adults lacking a high school diploma to earn an accredited high school diploma and
credentialed career certificate at the same time. In partnership with the County of San Diego
Library, National City Library offers a $2,500 scholarship to defray the program costs. We
currently have 13 students enrolled.

2. Digitally Empowering the Community
From getting an education to upskilling and lifelong learning to securing employment to filing taxes
and staying in touch with family, digital empowerment is all about keeping people better connected.
National City Public Library is proud to serve as a gateway and vital community anchor institution for
digital inclusion, digital advancement, and equitable access to information and resources.
- State Library's High -Speed Broadband Project - connecting public libraries to the California
Research and Education Network, operated by CENIC, a high -capacity fiber -optic -based
network serving more than 20 million users across CA. Over the last 5 years, National City
Public Library has been connected to the CENIC network, which is also used by the University
of California, the state university system, community colleges and public schools. As a result,
the Library has high-speed yet affordable broadband that enables us to offer services like
unlimited wireless access, videoconferencing, streaming media, content creation, and longer
sessions on terminals. The Library applied for and received $135,000 for equipment and
service for year 6 of the CENIC Broadband Project to increase the bandwidth from 1 GB to
10GB and expand Wi-Fi access beyond the library building into the parking lot. This project will
be completed in Fiscal Year 2021-22.
Technology Grants secured for innovative technology solutions - As part of our Staying
Connected - Technology forAll project, the Library was awarded two grants: CDBG-CV Grant
and Neighborhood Reinvestment Program Grant totaling over $86,000. This funding allowed
the Library to acquire a collection of laptops and hotspots and establish a laptop/hotspot loan
program to literacy learners, giving them access to technology to pursue their literacy goals
through remote/distance learning. In addition, CARES Act funding allowed for the purchase of
9 Chromebooks and hotspots for a general patron loan program. This equipment is due to be
delivered in August 2021.
Additional E-Resources - During the closure, many new e-resources were added to the
Library's digital collection such as Comics Plus, JobNow, VetNow, and ProQuest. In addition,
many new e-books and e-audiobooks were purchased to enable library patrons to access
library materials without walking through the Library doors.
3. Preserving National City's Cultural Heritage - Digital Archives Initiative
Dedicated to being open -access to our community, National City Public Library joins a growing
number of libraries, museums, and archives to provide free access to images and documents to the
public. Started in 2017, we began to provide online access to our archival materials on Archive.org.
With over 800 objects currently digitized, including:
- Over 700 historical photographs

public libraries digitize, preserve, and make their collections widely and openly accessible to the
communities.

4. Partnerships
There's no better approach to solving challenges than forging strategic partnerships, harnessing the
strengths and abilities of others, and driving collaborative innovation that delivers what our patrons
need. With that in mind, National City Public Library strives to broaden our relevance by fostering
collaboration and leveraging offerings our partners can bring to the table to benefit both of our
clientele.
• Through the Federal Work Study Program, students of Southwestern College (SWC) and PIMA
Medical Institute have been offering tutoring to adult -aged learners in several subjects such as
GED, ASVAB, Reading and Writing, ESL, Citizenship, and Math.
• The Library's 16 Weeks of STEAM project was the culmination of a partnership with FLEET
Science Center, Stephen Birch Aquarium, Olivewood Gardens, Ocean Connectors, Stein Family
Farm, A Reason to Survive (ARTS), Sweetwater Union High School District, National School
District and many other organizations. The Library also teamed up with UCSD Extension and were
offered a fellowship for five programs to 100 participants for virtual STEAM programming through
Sally Ride Science.
• Literacy has teamed up with AARP to help promote our program and provide senior tutors. In
addition, Literacy has also been working with the San Diego Futures Foundation to bring more
computer classes and Internet Safety classes to the Library. The San Diego Council on Literacy
donated thousands of new books as giveaways to our young patrons.

• Jewish Family Service (JFS) of San Diego - the immigration journey can be challenging. In
collaborating with JFS, the Library focuses on helping newcomers successfully navigate the path
to citizenship. Facilitated by JFS, our adult learners can now attend free 10-week Citizenship
classes that cover citizenship test, interview, and process.
Three 10-week sessions

33 learners

8 learners

• Friends of the Library - a §501(c)(3) non-profit organization group that has already been a staunch
supporter of library services with its Friends members working tirelessly to raise funds through
book sales to support library programs and collections. The Friends of the Library generously
donated approximately $60,000 to fund the cost of the digitization of the historic Star News onto
microfilm. This project was completed this fiscal year and will preserve this unique collection and
make it accessible to all.
CLOSING REMARKS
2021 has been a challenging year on many levels due to the COVID-19 pandemic, causing the Library
to pivot to virtual services. Although our doors had been closed to the public, staff continued to provide
virtual services - storytimes, tutoring, phone reference, and additional e-resources. Of course, the
traditional service days that were lost will affect our statistics; however, the closure also allowed for
opportunities to better serve the public, both in our service model and in our pivot to assist our
patrons.
During the closure, the Library quickly re -directed its traditional in -person services toward a virtual
model using technology to deliver services and activities online or remotely. So although some
traditional statistics decreased when compared to the previous year, digital usage has increased
showing a very positive trend that going forward the Library can offer its services via multiple delivery
methods depending on user's preferences. Whether they like virtual or in -person, the Library will be
equipped to deliver its services in a responsive manner.

BACKGROUND
The growing use of smartphones is a primary and economical means of online home interne
access for many Americans. Pew Research shows that eighty-five percent of Americans own a
smartphone and ninety-five percent of 18-49 year olds own a smartphone.1 As a device, a
smartphone can personalize the user's interaction with technology through the use of mobile
apps. When users can create their personalized content, they are more engaged in their interests
and in the tool itself. Also, notifications through an app can reach users instantly in a non -
intrusive manner.
EXPLANATION
On July 23, 2021, the California State Library awarded $16,421 in grant funding to the National
City Public Library for the Library Access on the Go project. With these grant funds the National
City Public Library will create, implement, and promote a mobile app to increase library
awareness, allow users to access library services and resources at their own time and
convenience, and unlock the power of better connection with library patrons.
Currently, users access the Library's website to look for e-resources, materials and view their
account. By creating an app that is portable, interactive and easy to use, NCPL will provide users
fast and convenient access to these library resources. The app platform is also available in
Spanish, if that is the user's preferred language. In addition, library patrons can elect to receive
notifications from the library on programs and services. The mobile app package is available
through the Library's electronic catalog service and is fully customizable. The grant funds pay
for Year 1 of the mobile app, the start-up costs, and personnel costs for its launch.

CIPA Compliance
The Institute of Museum and Library Services establishes guidelines to ensure that the
California State Library's implementation of the Children's Internet Protection Act (CIPA)
complies with the 2003 decision of the US Supreme Court. The California State Library is
required by 20 U.S.C. Section 9134(b)(i) to provide assurance that we will comply with
20 U.S.C. Section 9134(f), which sets out standards relating to Internet Safety for public
libraries and public elementary school and secondary school libraries.
Under CIPA, California State Library must assure the Federal Government that no funds
will be made available for public libraries and public elementary and secondary school
libraries to purchase computers to access the Internet or pay for the direct costs of

MISSION STATEMENT: It is the mission of the National School District ("DISTRICT") and
the City of National City ("CITY"), on behalf of and in concert with the National City Police
Department ("NCPD"), to provide a safe, secure, orderly teaching and learning environment for
all students and staff within the DISTRICT and the City through the protection of life and property.
The City and the DISTRICT may be individually referred to herein as a "Party" or may be
collectively referred to herein as the "Parties."
Ensuring the safety of students and staff on school campuses and deterring gangs, drug abuse,
criminal acts, and traffic violations in CITY are priorities to both the DISTRICT and the NCPD.
Both the DISTRICT and the NCPD believe that campus security is enhanced by the presence of
police officers and that police officers on campus also help improve relations between the NCPD
and youth in our community.
The DISTRICT and the NCPD agree to work together to provide the presence of a uniformed
police officer as a School Resource Officer ("SRO") on DISTRICT's school campus(es) to help
maintain a secure environment in and around DISTRICT's schools.
The DISTRICT and the NCPD agree to annually work together to monitor calls for service on
school campuses, as well as around school campuses during school hours when the calls are
deemed to be a concern or threat to the students, staff, or school property. The calls for service
data may be used to assist in determining the ongoing value of the SRO program to both Parties.
To this end, the Parties agree to the following respective roles and responsibilities pursuant to the
Agreement:
ROLE OF THE NATIONAL SCHOOL DISTRICT: The DISTRICT agrees to:
1. Coordinate scheduling with the SRO and the assigned NCPD supervisor.

the SRO.
6. Permit the SRO access to the playground and cafeteria to allow for informal interaction
with the students.

(d) A principal, the principal's designee, or any other person reporting a known or
suspected act described in subdivision (a) or (b) is not civilly or criminally liable

that a false report was made and that the person knew the report was false or the
report was made with reckless disregard for the truth or falsity of the report.
(e) The principal of a school or the principal's designee reporting a criminal act
committed by a schoolage individual with exceptional needs, as defined in Section

EXPLANATION
The resident of 1510 Harding Avenue has requested a bue curb disabled persons parking
space in front of her residence. The resident possesses a valid disabled persons placard
from the California Department of Motor Vehicles. The resident stated that it is difficult for
her to find parking in front of her residence due to the high demand of parking in the area
and that a disabled persons parking space in front of her residence would provide easier
access to the house.
Staff visited the site and observed that the resident's residence has no driveway and no
garage. The slope on Harding Avenue was found to be negligible.
The City Council has adopted a policy which is used to evaluate requests for disabled
persons parking spaces. The City Council Disabled Persons Parking Policy requirements
for "Special Hardship" cases are as follows:
1. Applicant (or guardian) must be in possession of valid license plates or placard for
"disabled persons" or "disabled veterans". This condition is met.
2. The proposed disabled parking space must be in front (or side if on a corner lot) of
the applicant's (or guardian's) place of residence. This condition is met.
.
The residence must not have useable off-street parking available or an off-street
space available that may be converted into disabled parking. This condition is met.
This item was presented to the Traffic Safety Committee on August 11, 2021. Staff sent
notices to area residents inviting them to Zoom -in or call -in to the Traffic Safety Committee
Meeting and/or contact staff with any questions.
Stan presented the results of the site evaluation to the Traffic Safety Committee and after
discussion, the Traffic Safety Committee voted to approve sfiaffi's recommendation to
install a blue curb disabled persons parking space with sign, since all three conditions of
the City Council Disabled Persons Parking Policy for "Special Hardship" cases are met.
The applicant for this request was informed that handicap parking spaces do not

license plates or placards may park in handicap spaces.
Staff is working on a parking implementation plan that will make recommendations to
modify Title 11 of the National City Municipal Code to manage future blue curb requests
as the City is receiving an increase in the amount of requests for blue curb disabled
persons parking spaces. Please see attached Exhibit "B" for the location of existing blue
curb disabled persons parking spaces within a 4-block radius from the proposed location
for this request.
If approved by City Council, all work will be performed by City Public Works.

AGENDA REPORT FOR AUGUST 11, 2021

ITEM TITLE: REQUEST FOR INSTALLATION LLATION OF A BLUE CURB DISABLED
PERSONS PARKING SPACE WITH SI NA E IN FRONT OF THE
RESIDENCE AT 1510 HARDING AVENUE
PREPARED BY: Carla Hutchinson, Assistant Engineer - Civil
Engineering & Public Works Department
DISCUSSION:
The resident of 1510 Harding Avenue, has requested a blue curb disabled persons parking
space in front of her residence. The resident possesses a valid disabled persons placard
from the California Department of Motor Vehicles. The resident stated that it is difficult for her
to find parking in front of her residence due to the high demand of parking in the area and
that a disabled persons parking space in front of her residence would provide easier access
to the house.
Staff visited the site and observed that the resident's residence has no driveway and no
garage. The slope on Harding Avenue was found to be negligible.
The City Council has adopted a policy which is used to evaluate requests for disabled
persons parking spaces. The City Council Disabled Persons Parking Policy requirements for
"Special Hardship" cases are as follows:
1. Applicant (or guardian) must be in possession of valid license plates or placard for
"disabled persons" or "disabled veterans". This condition is met.
. The proposed disabled parking space must be in front (or side if on a corner lot) of
the applicant's (or guardian's) place of residence. This condition is met.
. The residence must not have useable off-street parking available or an off-street
space available that may be converted into disabled parking. This condition is met.
It shalt be noted that disabled persons parking spaces do not constitute "personal reserved
parking" and that any person with valid "disabled persons" license plates or placards may
park in handicap spaces.
Staff is working on a parking implementation plan that will make recommendations to modify
Title 11 of the National City Municipal Code to manage future blue curb requests as the City
is receiving an increase in the amount of requests for blue curb disabled persons parking
spaces. Please see attached exhibit for the location of existing blue curb disabled persons
parking spaces within a -block radius from the proposed location for this request.
149 of 271
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Since all three conditions of the City Council Disabled Persons Parking Policy for "Special
Hardship" oases are met, staff recommends the installation of a blue curb disabled persons
parking space with signage in front of the residence at 1510 Harding Avenue.

DISABLED PERSONS PARKING POLICY
The purpose of a disabled persons parking zone is to provide designated parking spaces at
major points of assembly for the exclusive use of physically disabled persons whose
vehicle displays a distinguishing license plate as authorized by the California Department
of Motor Vehicles.
The City Council may upon recommendation of the City Engineer, designate specially
marked and posted on -street parking spaces for disabled persons pursuant to California
Vehicle Code 21101, et seq. at the following facilities:
1 _Government buildings serving the public such as administration buildings,
public employment offices, public libraries, police stations, etc.
2. Hospitals and convalescent homes with more than -bed capacity.
3. Medical facilities and doctors' offices staffed by a maximum of five
practitioners. Zones shall be located to serve a maximum number of
facilities on one block.
4. Community service facilities such assenior citizens service centers, ete.
5. Accredited vocational training and educational facilities where no off-
street parking is provided for disabled persons.
6. Employment offices for major enterprises employing more . than 200
persons.
7. Public recreational facilities including municipal swimming ng pools,
recreation halls, museums, etc.
8. Public theaters, auditoriums, meeting halls, arenas, stadiums with more
than 300 seating capacity.
9. Other places of assembly such as schools and churches.
10. Commercial and/or office building with an aggregate of more than
50,000 square feet of usable floor space. Zone shall be located to serve a
maximum number of facilities on one block.
11. Hotels catering to daily guests, maintaining a ground floor lobby and a
switchboard that is operated 24 hours Per day.
156 of 271
12. A hotel or apartment house catering to weekly or monthly guests and
containing pore than 30 separate living units.
In addition, disabled persons parking spaces may be provided within all publicly owned,
leased or controlled off-street parking facilities as specified in the General Requirements.
General leu i rein ens
Bach disabled persons parking space shall be indicated by blue paint and a sign
(white on blue) showing the international symbol of accessibility (a profile view of a
wheelchair with occupant).
Where installed under the above criteria the total number of disabled persons curb
parking spaces will be limited to 3% of the total number of on -street parking spaces
available in the area and shall be distributed uniformly withiin the area.
Disabled persons parking will not be installed at locations with a full -tine parking
prohibition. When a disabled persons parking zone is installed where a part-time parking
prohibition is in effect, the disabled persons parking zone will have the same time
restrictions as the part-time parking prohibition.
The cost of installing disabled persons parking will be assumed by the City on
public streets and public off-street parking facilities.
In establishing on -street parking facilities for the disabled there shall be a
reasonable determination made that the need is of an on -going nature. The intent is to
prevent the proliferation of special parking stalls that may be installed for a short-term
purpose but later are seldom used. Unjustified installation of such parking stalls
unnecessarily increases the City's maintenance and operations costs, reduce available on -
street parking for the general public, and detract from the overall effectiveness of the
disabled persons parking program.
Special Hardship Cases
It is not the intention of the City to provide personal reserved parking on the
public right-jof-way, especially in residential areas. However, exceptions may be .made,
in special hardship cases, provided all of the following conditions exists:
(1) Applicant (or guardian) must be in possession of valid license plates for
"disabled persons" or "disabled veterans."
(2) The proposed disabled parking space must be in front of the applicant's
(or guardian' s) place of residence.
157 of 271
(3)
Subject residence- must not have useable - tr —oval Ie or
off-street space available that may be converted into disabled parking.
NOTE:It must be emphasized that such parking spaces do not constitute "personal
reserved parking" and that any person with valid "disabled persons" license plates may
park in the above stalls.

AGENDA ITEM NO.
ITEM TITLE:
Public Hearing and Introduction of an Ordinance of the City Council of the City of National City repealing
Chapter 11.52 (Bicycles) of the National City Municipal Code. (Applicant City-Initiated)(Case File 2021-03 A)
PREPARED BY: Martin Reeder, AICP
PHONE: 619-336-4313
EXPLANATION:
In 1972 the City Council adopted an Ordinance adding Chapter 11.52 to Title 11 of the National City Municipal
Code (NCMC) to require licenses for bicycles in the City. The individual adopted license fees were $1.40 for
registration, $1.00 for transfer of ownership, and $0.50 for a replacement license. The purpose of the
Ordinance was to deter bicycle theft and establish violations. Since adoption of the Ordinance, licenses were
issued by the National City Police Department (NCPD); however, licenses have not been issued since the
mid-1990s. Bicycle registration and licensing is Tess efficient than the use of serial numbers for the purposes
of theft deterrence and the penalties for violations in the Ordinance are onerous, ranging from misdemeanor
to impounding a bicycle. Many cities have repealed their bicycle license requirements, including San Diego
in 2013 and Chula Vista in 2019 in an effort to become more bicycle -friendly. Repealing Chapter 11.52 will
have no fiscal impact on the City since no fees are collected. NCPD is supportive of the repeal.

193 of 271
Explanation:
In 2019, staff presented a preliminary report on the feasibility of possible Community Choice Aggregation
(CCA) models and associated pros and cons with each one. Council gave staff direction to continue to monitor
the development of the County's CCA and return with an update.
The City's Climate Action Plan (CAP) is being updated now and should be presented to council before the end
of the calendar year. The CAP plan will outline the strategies to achieve the specific environmental targets
required by the state. Central to the updated CAP recommendations is the joining a CCA. Under a CCA,
residents and businesses then have the opportunity to choose who will purchase electricity on their behalf -
either the CCA or the incumbent utility. Under a CCA, residents and businesses can also select the renewable
content of their electricity. The pooling of purchasing power to buy or generate electricity gives customers the
choice of where to purchase their power. Choice, competition, and local control are the bedrock of CCA. The
incumbent utility remains a key partner in a CCA program as it continues to manage transmission and billing
services for CCA customers. Today, there are twenty-four CCAs operating throughout the State, serving more
than eleven million customers, including two CCAs in San Diego County — Clean Energy Alliance (CEA) and
San Diego Community Power (SDCP).
The SDCP is a Joint Power Agency (JPA) that was formed in September of 2019 and begun serving its first
customers in March of this year. Once fully launched, SDCP will be serving approximately 770,000 customer
accounts making it the second largest community choice program in California. SDCP' current participating
agencies are City of San Diego, Chula Vista, La Mesa, Encinitas, and Imperial Beach. The County of San
Diego recently also decided to join SDCP after many years of research and information gathering on their part.
CEA consists of the cities of Carlsbad, Del Mar, and Solana Beach. CE serves about 60,000 customer accounts.
Staff has reviewed the SDCP and CEA JPA agreements to evaluate issues of concern including, but not limited
to, governance structure, goals, priorities, local building efforts, and legislative and regulatory advocacy of
member agencies.
The attached memo dated September 9, 2021 (Attachment 1) compares the two CCAs in the County. The table
below is a summary of the comparison.

Prevailing Wage
CEAs Inclusive and Sustainable

prevailing wages and a skilled and trained

Projects and encourages prevailing wage.
.
The SDCP JPA states members seek to
demonstrate economic benefits to the
region with prevailing wage jobs, local
workforce development, and support a
stable, skilled and trained workforce
through a variety of means including the
use of neutrality agreements. Their
Inclusive and Sustainable Workforce
Policy requires contractors and
subcontractors to pay prevailing wages
on any SDCP Feed -in Tariff project.
Communities of
Concern
The policy directs broad outreach efforts
in diverse and disadvantaged communities,
with an emphasis on seeking local
contractors and businesses. While their
policies note they are union neutral, their
Bid Evaluation Criteria Policy provides
preference to local renewable energy
projects, creating new local jobs, and
utilizing approved CA apprenticeship
programs with fair compensation and
proper assignment of work to crafts that
traditionally perform the work
The policy is to "Promote suppliers and
workforce diversity, including returning
veterans and those from disadvantaged
and under -represented communities of
concern, to reflect the diversity of the
region." SDCP's Inclusive and
Sustainable Workforce policy supports
the use of "State of California approved
apprenticeship programs" and notes
SDCP will encourage construction
contractors working on FIT projects to
utilize local businesses, local
apprenticeship programs, fair
compensation practices including the
proper assignment of work to crafts that
traditionally perform the work, and the
use of a skilled and trained workforce.
General Fund Liability
CEA and SDCP both utilize a JPA governance structure that creates a governmental entity separate and distinct
from its member agencies, allowing members to be shielded from JPA debts and liabilities. The Joint Powers
Agreements for both CEA and SDCP further provide that: (1) debts, liabilities, and obligations of the Authority
(SDCP) shall not be the debts, liabilities, and obligations of any of the Parties (members) unless a party agrees
in writing to assume any of the debts, liabilities, and obligations of the Authority with the approval of its
Governing Body; (2) members are not required to make any financial contributions or payments to the JPA,
196 of 271
except as may be required in connection with addition of a new member or withdrawal of a member under the
JPA; (3) the JPA must acquire insurance coverage as necessary to protect the interests of the members and
indemnify the members from liabilities arising from the JPA's activities. Consistent with industry standards,
both Joint Powers Agreements include provisions with respect to withdrawal or involuntary termination of
members that make the withdrawing or terminated member responsible for liability and costs in connection
with that member's participation and that member's withdrawal or termination.
Financial Analysis
SDCP and CEA are start-up CCAs with a short tenure of commercial operations. As such, neither CCA has a
long history of operational statistics or accumulated targeted cash reserves that the more mature CCAs enjoy.
However, both CCAs have lines of credit in place to handle immediate cash flow requirements. SDCP has a
$35M line of credit (LOC) from River City Bank, and CEA has a $6M LOC from JP Morgan (with authority
to increase up to $10M). SDCP also has a $5M agreement from a private third party to provide collateral
support to the River City Bank LOC.
Conclusion
Staff believes both CCAs are viable options but recommends SDCP because it is a quickly maturing CCA, with
12 permanent staff already in place as opposed to CEA using consultants. The larger number of accounts that
SDCP serves would spread fixed cost over a larger number therefore lowering costs to users. Additionally,
SDCP is already securing new long-term local renewables and storage, and will have significant cash reserves
in place when the City is projected to launch.
If the Council would like to join CCA SDCP, per Utilities Code Section 366.2(c)(12), Council will need to
adopt an ordinance electing to do so within its jurisdiction. This ordinance would automatically transfer all
SDGE accounts in the City to the CCA but would allow any account to opt out with minimal effort.
Staff is requesting direction to return to Council with a CCA ordinance and Joint Powers Agency agreement
with SDCP at the earliest possible council meeting.

MEMORANDUM
DATE: September 9, 2021
TO: Brad Raulston, City Manager
FROM: Roberto Yano, Director of Public Works/City Engineer
SUBJECT: Recommendation to join San Diego Community Power (SDCP)
Community Choice Aggregation (CCA)
In 2019, staff presented a preliminary report on the feasibility of possible CCA models
and associated pros and cons with each one. Council gave staff direction to continue to

serving more than eleven million customers, including two CCAs in San Diego County —
Clean Energy Alliance (CEA) and San Diego Community Power (SDCP).
Authorization to join a CCA could benefit city residents with competitive utility rates and
cost savings compared to the incumbent utility, San Diego Gas & Electric (SDGE), as well
as provide local control and more renewable power.

Since presenting staff has engaged in discussions with both CCAs and worked to
evaluate the City's options for joining the one of them. The results of these efforts are
summarized below:
MAKE-UP AND OPERATION
Clean Energy Alliance
CEA consists of the cities of Carlsbad, Del Mar, and Solana Beach and includes
about 60,000 customer accounts. CEA is governed via a Joint Powers Agreement
(JPA) between the member agencies and is currently at full service as of June
2021. Staffing consists of an interim CEO, three other interim staff, and a series of
consultants managing operations. CEA currently offers three energy options to its
customers, one at 50% renewable, a 50% renewable and 75% carbon free option,
and a 100% renewable option. Opt -out rates are at 7% at this time but not expected
to fluctuate much further as the CCE is fully launched. CEA plans to consider a
fulltime staffing plan in the fall of 2021.
San Diego Community Power
SDCP consists of the cities of San Diego, Chula Vista, Encinitas, La Mesa, and
Imperial Beach. SDCP is also governed via a JPA and currently operates with an
Interim CEO and 12 full time staff, along with a series of consultants. It is currently
serving all municipal, commercial, and industrial accounts, making up about 54%
of their total load profile. The remaining accounts which are all residential are
expected to be brought on board by May of 2022. Once in full operation, SDCP
expects to have 26 full-time staff, serve up to 770,000 accounts and be the 2nd
largest CCA in the State. Current opt -out rates are at 2.34%. SDCP offers two
energy options to its customers, one at 50% renewable and 5% GHG free and one
at 100% renewable. Recently the County of San Diego, with more than 188,000
accounts, voted to join SDCP.
ANALYSIS
1) Social equity and environmental stewardship
CEA's JPA document commits the CCA to addressing Climate Change by
reducing GHG Emissions. It also sets a minimum of 50% renewable energy,
increasing to 100% by 2035. Regarding social equity, CEA has an Inclusive and
Sustainable Workforce Policy which applies to staff, supply chain, procurement,
and business practices. Lastly, CEA's Bid Criteria Policy establishes

199 of 271
environmental stewardship and social equity as criteria to be evaluated during the
bioprocess.
SDCP's JPA states an intent to "Develop an aggregate electric supply portfolio
with overall lower greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions than the Investor Owned
Utility (IOU), and one that supports near -term achievement of the Parties'
greenhouse gas reduction goals and renewable electricity goals," and to "Pursue
purposeful and focused investment in communities of concern, prioritization of
local renewable power, workforce development, and policies and programs
centered on economic, environmental, and social equity." Additionally, SDCP has
an Inclusive and Sustainable Workforce Policy that supports outreach to
communities of concern for supply chain goods and services and requires
workforce reporting for project developers working for SDCP.
2) Provide cost competitiveness compared to the incumbent utility
CEA's JPA establishes that they will seek electric generation rates which are
competitive with SDG&E, with a target to be 2% below SDG&E's base generation
rate. Currently, they have confirmed that their lowest renewables content rate,
which includes 50% renewable, is at 2.2% below SDG&E.
SDCP's JPA establishes that they will seek electric generation rates which are
lower or competitive with SDG&E. Currently, they have confirmed that their lowest
renewables content rate, which includes 50% renewable and 5% GHG free, is at
1 % below SDG&E.
3) Achievement of renewable electricity
Currently, CEA offers customers three energy options, one of which provides
100% renewable power. CEA members stated goal in their JPA is to reach 100%
renewable by 2035; however, City accounts can be switched to the 100% option
in 2030, or at any time.

in 2030, or at any time.
4) Prevailing Wage
CEAs Inclusive and Sustainable Workforce policy encourages payment of
prevailing wages and a skilled and trained workforce for Owned Generation and
FIT Projects and encourages prevailing wage.

The SDCP JPA states members seek to demonstrate economic benefits to the
region with prevailing wage jobs, local workforce development, and support a
stable, skilled and trained workforce through a variety of means including the use
of neutrality agreements. Their Inclusive and Sustainable Workforce Policy
requires contractors and subcontractors to pay prevailing wages on any SDCP
Feed -in Tariff project and "encourages the submission of information from
respondents" to PPA RFQ/RFP's regarding "planned efforts to" pay prevailing
wages. It also notes that the same "encourage" language used with respect to
PPA's may be adopted with respect to Owned Generation and Energy Efficiency
projects.
5) Encourage the development of an equitable jobs pipeline for individuals from
communities of concern
CEA's Inclusive and Sustainable Workforce Policy "...supports local jobs,
sustainable and inclusive workforce opportunities, local economic sustainability,
and diversity through contracting for power sources, procuring goods and services,
and implementing hiring initiatives where appropriate, without limiting fair and open
competition..." This policy directs broad outreach efforts in diverse and
disadvantaged communities, with an emphasis on seeking local contractors and
businesses. While their policies note they are union neutral, their Bid Evaluation
Criteria Policy provides preference to local renewable energy projects, creating
new local jobs, and utilizing approved CA apprenticeship programs with fair
compensation and proper assignment of work to crafts that traditionally perform
the work.
SDCP's JPA states, "To the extent authorized by law, support a stable, skilled, and
trained workforce through a variety of mechanisms, including neutrality
agreements, that are designed to ensure quality workmanship at fair and
competitive rates..." Also, "Promote suppliers and workforce diversity, including
returning veterans and those from disadvantaged and under -represented
communities of concern, to reflect the diversity of the region." SDCP's Inclusive
and Sustainable Workforce policy supports the use of "State of California approved
apprenticeship programs" and notes SDCP will encourage construction
contractors working on FIT projects to utilize local businesses, local apprenticeship
programs, fair compensation practices including the proper assignment of work to
crafts that traditionally perform the work, and the use of a skilled and trained
workforce.
6) General Fund Liability

Agreements for both CEA and SDCP further provide that: (1) debts, liabilities, and
obligations of the Authority (SDCP) shall not be the debts, liabilities, and
obligations of any of the Parties (members) unless a party agrees in writing to
assume any of the debts, liabilities, and obligations of the Authority with the

interests of the members and indemnify the members from liabilities arising from
the JPA's activities. Consistent with industry standards, both Joint Powers
Agreements include provisions with respect to withdrawal or involuntary
termination of members that make the withdrawing or terminated member
responsible for liability and costs in connection with that member's participation
and that member's withdrawal or termination.

Clean Energy Alliance Joint Powers Agreement
Effective: November 4, 2019
Oct. 8, 2019
204 of 271
Item #5 Page 10 of 4"
CLEAN ENERGY ALLIANCE JOINT POWERS AGREEMENT
This Joint Powers Agreement (the "Agreement"), effective as of 0lq , is made by the
Founding Members of the Clean Energy Alliance and entered into pursuant to the provisions of
Title 1, Division 7, Chapter 5, Article 1 (Section 6500 et seq.) of the California Government
Code relating to the joint exercise of powers among the public agencies set forth in Exhibit B.
RECITALS
1. The Parties are public agencies sharing various powers under California law, including
but not limited to the power to purchase, supply, and aggregate electricity for themselves
and their customers.
2. SB 350, adopted in 2015, mandates a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions to 40 percent
below 1990 levels by 2030 and to 80 percent below 1990 levels by 2050. In 2018, the
State Legislature adopted SB 100, which directs the Renewable Portfolio Standard to be
increased to 60% renewable by 2030 and establishes a policy for eligible renewable
energy resources and zero -carbon resources to supply 100 percent of electricity retail
sales to California end -use customers by 2045.
3. The purposes for the Founding Members (as such term is defined in Exhibit A) entering
into this Agreement include procuring/developing electrical energy for customers in
participating jurisdictions, addressing climate change by reducing energy -related
greenhouse gas emissions, promoting electrical rate price stability and cost savings, and
fostering consumer choice and local economic benefits such as job creation, local energy
programs and local power development. It is the intent of this Agreement to promote the
development and use of a wide range of renewable energy sources and energy efficiency
programs, including but not limited to state, regional, and local solar and wind energy
production and energy storage.
4. The Parties to this Agreement desire to establish a separate public agency, known as the
Clean Energy Alliance ("Authority"), under the provisions of the Joint Exercise of
Powers Act of the State of California (Government Code Section 6500 et seq.) ("Act") in
order to collectively study, promote, develop, conduct, operate, and manage energy
programs.
5. The Founding Members have each adopted an ordinance electing to implement through
the Authority a Community Choice Aggregation program pursuant to California Public
Utilities Code Section 366.2 ("CCA Program"). The first priority of the Authority will be
the consideration of those actions necessary to implement the CCA Program on behalf of
participating jurisdictions.
6. By establishing the Authority, the Parties seek to:
(a) Provide electricity service to residents and businesses located within the
jurisdictional boundaries of the public agencies that are members of the Authority in
a responsible, reliable, innovative, and efficient manner;
-2 -
Oct. 8, 2019

Item #5 Page 11 of 4-
(b) Provide electric generation rates to all ratepayers that are competitive with those
offered by the Investor Owned Utility, San Diego Gas & Electric (SDG&E), for
similar products with a target generation rate at least 2 percent below SDG&E's base
product generation rate;
(c) Offer a mix of energy products for standard commodity electric service that provide

accordance with its fiscal management policies that should include a
deadline for approval.
7.3.2 Funding of Initial Costs. The Initial Costs of establishing the Authority
and implementing its CCA Program shall be divided equally among the
Founding Members. In the event that the CCA Program becomes
operational, these Initial Costs paid by the Founding Members shall be
included in the customer charges for electric services to the extent
permitted by law. The Authority may establish a reasonable time period

maintenance of various reserve and performance funds, shall be recovered
through appropriate charges to CCA customers receiving such services.
7.3.5 No Requirement for Contributions or Payments. Parties are not required
under this Agreement to make any financial contributions or payments to
the Authority, and the Authority shall have no right to require such a
contribution or payment unless expressly set forth herein (for example, as
provided in Section 2.4.3, with respect to Additional Members, Section
7.3.2 with respect to Initial Costs and Section 8.1, with respect to
Withdrawal), or except as otherwise required by law.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Party may voluntarily enter into an

projects of the Authority or (2) allow Parties to direct funds into qualified
Authority programs and projects, or provide other ratepayer benefits. The Board
shall endeavor to achieve a balanced distribution of program and project benefits
substantially commensurate with each Party's energy load ("balanced
distribution"). The Board shall conduct periodic audits no less than every two
years in order to verify the balanced distribution of program and project benefits
and take any corrective action necessary to achieve or continue to maintain a
balanced distribution.
7.7 Rate Related Programs. The Authority will maintain residential net energy
metering and low-income rate discount programs.
8. WITHDRAWAL AND TERMINATION
8.1 Withdrawal
8.1.1 Withdrawal by Parties. Any Party may withdraw its membership in
the Authority, effective as of the beginning of the Authority's fiscal
year, by giving no less than one year advance written notice of its
election to do so, which notice shall be given to the Authority and
each Party. The Board, in its discretion, may approve a shorter notice
period on a case by case basis. In addition, a Party may immediately
withdraw its membership in the Authority upon written notice to the
Board at any time prior to the Authority filing its first year -ahead load
forecast with the CPUC that included the Party's load (anticipated to
occur in April 2020) without any financial obligation other than its
share of Initial Costs that shall not be reimbursed and any costs
directly related to the resulting amendment of the Implementation
Plan. Withdrawal of a Party shall require an affirmative vote of the
Party's Governing Body.
8.1.2 Amendment. Notwithstanding Section 8.1.1 (Withdrawal by Parties)
of this Agreement, a Party may withdraw its membership in the
Authority upon approval and execution of an amendment to this
Agreement provided that the requirements of this Section 8.1.2 are
strictly followed. A Party shall be deemed to have withdrawn its
membership in the Authority effective one year (or earlier if approved
by the Board) after the Board approves an amendment to this
Agreement if the Director representing such Party has provided notice
to the other Directors immediately preceding the Board's vote of the
Party's intention to withdraw its membership in the Authority, should
the amendment be approved by the Board.
8.1.3 Continuing Liability; Further Assurances. A Party that withdraws its
membership in the Authority may be subject to certain continuing
liabilities, as described in Section 8.5 (Continuing Liability; Refund)
of this Agreement, including, but not limited to, power purchase
-18 -
Oct. 8, 2019

Item 445 Page 27 of 4`-
agreements and other Authority contracts and operational obligations.
The withdrawing Party and the Authority shall execute and deliver all
further instruments and documents and take any further action that
may be reasonably necessary, as determined by the Board, to
effectuate the orderly withdrawal of such Party from membership in
the Authority. The Board shall also consider, pursuant to Section
3.2.12, adoption of a policy that allows a withdrawing Party to
negotiate assignment to the Party of costs of electric power or other
resources procured on behalf of its customers by the Authority upon
its withdrawal. In the implementation of this Section 8.1.3, the
Parties intend, to the maximum extent possible, without
compromising the viability of ongoing Authority operations, that any
claims, demands, damages, or liabilities covered hereunder, be funded
from the rates paid by CCA Program customers located within the
service territory of the withdrawing Party, and not from the general
fund of the withdrawing Party itself.
8.2 Termination of CCA Program. Nothing contained in Section 6 or elsewhere in
this Agreement shall be construed to limit the discretion of the Authority to
terminate the implementation or operation of the CCA Program at any time in
accordance with any applicable requirements of state law.
8.3 Involuntary Termination. This Agreement may be terminated with respect to a
Party for material non-compliance with provisions of this Agreement or Authority
Documents upon a two-thirds vote of the entire Board excluding the vote of the
Party subject to possible termination. Prior to any vote to terminate this
Agreement with respect to a Party, written notice of the proposed termination and
the reason(s) for such termination shall be delivered to the Party whose
termination is proposed at least 30 days prior to the regular Board meeting at
which such matter shall first be discussed as an agenda item. The written notice
of proposed termination shall specify the particular provisions of this Agreement
or the Authority Documents that the Party has allegedly violated. The Party,
subject to possible termination, shall have the opportunity at the next regular
Board meeting to respond to any reasons and allegations that may be cited as a
basis for termination prior to a vote regarding termination. A Party that has had
its membership in the Authority terminated may be subject to certain continuing
liabilities, as described in Section 8.5 (Continuing Liability; Refund) of this
Agreement.
8.4 Mutual Termination. This Agreement may be terminated by mutual agreement
of all the Parties; provided, however, the foregoing shall not be construed as
limiting the rights of a Party to withdraw its membership in the Authority, and
thus terminate this Agreement with respect to such withdrawing Party, as
described in Section 8.1 (Withdrawal) of this Agreement.
8.5 Continuing Liability; Refund. Upon a withdrawal or involuntary termination of
a Party, the Party shall be responsible for any claims, demands, damages, or
-19 -
Oct. 8, 2019
222 of 271
Item #5 Page 28 of 4e
liabilities attributable to the Party through the effective date of its withdrawal or
involuntary termination, it being agreed that the Party shall not be responsible for
any claims, demands, damages, or liabilities commencing or arising after the
effective date of the Party's withdrawal or involuntary termination.
Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provisions of this Agreement, such
Party also shall be liable to the Authority for (a) any damages, losses, or costs
incurred by the Authority which result directly from the Party's withdrawal or
termination, including but not limited to costs arising from the resale of capacity,
electricity, or any attribute thereof no longer needed to serve such Party's load;
and (b) any costs or obligations associated with the Party's participation in any
program in accordance with the program's terms, provided such costs or
obligations were incurred prior to the withdrawal of the Party. From and after the
date a Party provides notice of its withdrawal or is terminated, the Authority shall
reasonably and in good faith seek to mitigate any costs and obligations to be
incurred by the withdrawing or terminated Party under this Section through
measures reasonable under the circumstances, provided that this obligation to
mitigate does not impose any obligation on the Authority to transfer any cost or
obligation directly attributable to the membership and withdrawal or termination
of the withdrawing or terminated party to the ratepayers of the remaining
members. Further, the liability of the withdrawing or terminated Party shall be
based on actual costs or damages incurred by the Authority and shall not include
any penalties or punitive charges imposed by the Authority. The Authority may
withhold funds otherwise owing to the Party or may require the Party to deposit
sufficient funds with the Authority, as reasonably determined by the Authority, to
cover the Party's liability for the costs described above. The withdrawing or
terminated Party agrees to pay any such deposit determined by the Authority.
Any amount of the Party's funds held on deposit with the Authority above that
which is required to pay any liabilities or obligations shall be returned to the
Party. In the implementation of this Section 8.5, the Parties intend, to the
maximum extent possible, without compromising the viability of ongoing
Authority operations, that any claims, demands, damages, or liabilities covered
hereunder, be funded from the rates paid by CCA Program customers located
within the service territory of the withdrawing Party, and not from the general
fund of the withdrawing Party itself. The liability of a withdrawing Party under
this Section shall be only to the Authority and not to any other Party.
8.6 Disposition of Authority Assets. Upon termination of this Agreement and
dissolution of the Authority by all Parties, after payment of all obligations of the
Authority, the Board may sell or liquidate Authority property and shall distribute
any remaining assets to the Parties in proportion to the contributions made by the
existing Parties. Any assets provided by a Party to the Authority shall remain the
asset of that Party and shall not be subject to distribution under this section.
9. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

SAN DIEGO REGIONAL COMMUNITY CHOICE ENERGY AUTHORITY —
JOINT POWERS AGREEMENT
SAN DIEGO REGIONAL COMMUNITY CHOICE ENERGY AUTHORITY
JOINT POWERS AGREEMENT
This Joint Powers Agreement (the "Agreement"), effective as of October 1, 2019, is made by the
Founding Members of San Diego Regional Community Choice Energy Authority (Authority)
including cities of San Diego, Chula Vista, La Mesa, Encinitas, and Imperial Beach, and entered
into pursuant to the provisions of Title 1, Division 7, Chapter 5, Article 1 (Section 6500 et seq.)
of the California Government Code relating to the joint exercise of powers among the public
agencies set forth in Exhibit B.
RECITALS
1. The Parties are public agencies sharing various powers under California law, including
but not limited to the power to purchase, supply, and aggregate electricity for themselves
and their inhabitants.
2. SB 350, adopted in 2015, mandates a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions to 40 percent
below 1990 levels by 2030 and to 80 percent below 1990 levels by 2050. In 2018, the
State Legislature adopted SB 100, which directs the Renewable Portfolio Standard to be
increased to 60% renewable by 2030 and establishes a policy for eligible renewable
energy resources and zero -carbon resources to supply 100 percent of electricity retail
sales to California end -use customers by 2045.
3. The purposes for the Founding Members (as such term is defined in Exhibit A) entering
into this Agreement include procuring/developing electrical energy for customers in
participating jurisdictions, addressing climate change by reducing energy -related
greenhouse gas emissions, promoting electrical rate price stability, and fostering local
economic benefits such as job creation, local energy programs and local power
development. It is the intent of this Agreement to promote the development and use of a
wide range of renewable energy sources and energy efficiency programs, including but
not limited to State, regional, and local solar and wind energy production and energy
storage.
4. The Parties to this Agreement desire to establish a separate public agency, known as the
San Diego Regional Community Choice Energy Authority ("Authority"), under the
provisions of the Joint Exercise of Powers Act of the State of California (Government
Code Section 6500 et seq.) ("Act") in order to collectively study, promote, develop,
conduct, operate, and manage energy programs.
5. The Founding Members have each adopted an ordinance electing to implement through
the Authority a Community Choice Aggregation program pursuant to California Public
Utilities Code Section 366.2 ("CCA Program"). The first priority of the Authority will be
the consideration of those actions necessary to implement the CCA Program on behalf of
participating jurisdictions.

SAN DIEGO REGIONAL COMMUNITY CHOICE ENERGY AUTHORITY —
JOINT POWERS AGREEMENT
6. By establishing the Authority, the Parties seek to:
(a) Provide electricity service to residents and businesses located within the municipal
boundaries of the public agencies that signed on to this agreement in a responsible,
reliable, innovative, and efficient manner;
(b) Provide electric generation rates to all ratepayers that are lower or at least
competitive with those offered by the Investor Owned Utility (IOU), San Diego Gas
& Electric (SDG&E), for similar products;
(c) Offer differentiated energy products for standard commodity electric service that
provide a cleaner power portfolio than that offered by the IOU for similar service
and a 100 percent renewable content option in which communities and customers
may "opt -up" and voluntarily participate, with the ultimate objective of achieving —
and sustaining-100 percent renewable energy availability and usage, at competitive
rates, within the Authority service territory by no later than 2035, and then beyond;
(d) Develop an aggregate electric supply portfolio with overall lower greenhouse gas
(GHG) emissions than the IOU, and one that supports near -term achievement of the
Parties' greenhouse gas reduction goals and renewable electricity goals;
(e) Prioritize the use and development of local, cost-effective renewable and distributed
energy resources in ways that encourage and support local power development and
storage, avoids the use of unbundled renewable energy credits, and excludes coal
and avoids nuclear contracts;
(f)
(g)
Promote an energy portfolio that incorporates energy efficiency and demand
response programs and pursues ambitious energy consumption reduction goals;
Provide a range of energy product and program options, available to all Parties and
customers, that best serve their needs, their local communities, and support regional
sustainability efforts.
(h) Demonstrate quantifiable economic benefits to the region including prevailing wage
jobs, local workforce development, economic development programs, new energy
programs, and increased local energy investments;
(i)
To the extent authorized by law, support a stable, skilled, and trained workforce
through a variety of mechanisms, including neutrality agreements, that are designed
to ensure quality workmanship at fair and competitive rates and which benefit local
residents by delivering cost-effective clean energy programs and projects;
(j) Promote supplier and workforce diversity, including returning veterans and those
from regional disadvantaged and under -represented communities of concern, to
reflect the diversity of the region;
-3 -

of local renewable power, workforce development, and policies and programs
centered on economic, environmental, and social equity.
(n) Use discretionary program revenues to support the Authority's long-term financial
viability, enhance customer rate stability, and provide all Parties and their customers
with access to innovative energy programs, projects and services throughout the
region; and
(o) Create an administering Authority that is financially sustainable, responsive to
regional priorities, well -managed, and a leader in fair and equitable treatment of
employees through adopting appropriate best practice employment policies,
including but not limited to efficient consideration of petitions to unionize,
participating in collective bargaining, if applicable, and providing appropriate wages
and benefits.

4.9 Brown Act Applicable. All meetings of the Board shall be conducted in
accordance with the provisions of the Ralph M. Brown Act (Government Code
Section 54950, et seq.).
4.10 Quorum. A simple majority of the Directors shall constitute a quorum. No
actions may be taken by the Board without a quorum of the Directors present. If a
Party fails to be represented by a Director(s) or alternate Director in more than
one meeting in a 12-month period, the Board may take action by publicly noticing
the Party that they are at risk of lack of representation within the Authority.
4.11 Board Voting.
4.11.1 Equal Vote. Once a quorum has been established, in general, except when
Special Voting is expressly required pursuant to Section 4.12 hereof,
Board action shall require votes of a majority of the total number of the
Directors of the Board. All votes taken pursuant to this Section 4.11.1
shall be referred to as an "Equal Vote." The consequence of a tie vote
shall generally be "no action" taken. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an
"Equal Vote" may be subject to a "Voting Shares Vote" as provided in
Section 4.11.2, below.
4.11.2 Voting Shares Vote. At the same meeting at which an Equal Vote
action was taken, three or more Directors shall have the right to
request and have conducted a "Voting Shares Vote" to reconsider that
action. Approval of a proposed action by a Voting Shares Vote to
reconsider an Equal Vote action shall require the affirmative vote of
Directors representing a two-thirds supermajority (66.7%) of the
"Voting Shares" cast. The formula and process for allocating Voting
Shares is set forth in Section 4.11.3, below. If a Voting Shares Vote
for reconsideration fails, the legal effect is to affirm the Equal Vote
with respect to which the Voting Shares Vote was taken. If the
Voting Shares Vote succeeds, the legal effect is to nullify the Equal
Vote with respect to which the Voting Shares Vote was taken. If the
underlying Equal Vote was a tie, the Voting Shares Vote replaces that
tie vote. No action may be taken solely by a Voting Shares Vote
without first having taken an Equal Vote.
4.11.3 Voting Shares Vote Formula and Process. For the process of a Voting
Shares Vote, each Director shall have a Voting Share as determined by the
following formula: (Annual Energy Use/Total Annual Energy) multiplied
by 100, where:
(a) "Annual Energy Use" means, (i) with respect to the first year
following the Effective Date, the annual electricity usage,
expressed in kilowatt hours ("kWh"), within the Party's respective
jurisdiction and (ii) with respect to the period after the first
anniversary of the Effective Date, the annual electricity usage,
-12 -
243 of 271
SAN DIEGO REGIONAL COMMUNITY CHOICE ENERGY AUTHORITY —
JOINT POWERS AGREEMENT
(b)
expressed in kWh, of accounts within a Party's respective
jurisdiction that are served by the Authority; and
"Total Annual Energy" means the sum of all Parties' Annual
Energy Use. The initial values for Annual Energy Use will be
designated in Exhibit C and shall be adjusted annually as soon as
reasonably practicable after January 1, but no later than March 1 of
each year. These adjustments shall be approved by the Board.
The combined voting share of all Directors representing a Party
shall be based upon the annual electricity usage within the Party's
jurisdiction. If a Party has two Directors, then the voting shares
allocated to that Party shall be equally divided between its two
Directors.
The initial voting shares will be set forth in Exhibit D. Exhibit D
shall be revised no less than annually as necessary to account for
changes in the number of Parties and changes in the Parties'
Annual Energy Use. Exhibit D and adjustments shall be approved
by the Board.
Notwithstanding the formula for Voting Shares set forth above, for
the purposes of the Voting Shares Vote, no one Party to this
Agreement shall have a Director (or Directors, as the case may be)
with a Voting Share that exceeds 49%, regardless of the Party's
actual annual electric usage. If a Party would have a voting share
that exceeds 49%, the excess above 49% shall be distributed
among the other Parties in accordance with their relative annual
electricity usage, as shown in Exhibit D.
4.12 Special Voting.
4.12.1 Except as provided below, matters that require Special Voting as
described in this section shall require 72 hours prior notice to any Brown
Act meeting or special meeting.
4.12.2 Two-thirds vote (or such greater vote as required by state law) of the
appointed Directors shall be required to take any action on the following:
(a) Issue bonds or other forms of debt;
(b) Adding or removing Parties;
(c) Amend or terminate this Agreement or adopt or amend the bylaws
of the Authority. At least 30 days advance notice shall be provided
for such actions. The Authority shall also provide prompt written

the Authority, effective as of the beginning of the Authority's fiscal
year, by giving no less than 180 days advance written notice of its
election to do so, which notice shall be given to the Authority and
each Party. Withdrawal of a Party shall require an affirmative vote of
the Party's Governing Body.
8.1.2 Amendment. Notwithstanding Section 8.1.1 (Withdrawal by Parties)
of this Agreement, a Party may withdraw its membership in the
Authority upon approval and execution of an amendment to this
Agreement provided that the requirements of this Section 8.1.2 are
strictly followed. A Party shall be deemed to have withdrawn its
-21 -
252 of 271
SAN DIEGO REGIONAL COMMUNITY CHOICE ENERGY AUTHORITY —
JOINT POWERS AGREEMENT
membership in the Authority effective 180 days after the Board
approves an amendment to this Agreement if the Director
representing such Party has provided notice to the other Directors
immediately preceding the Board's vote of the Party's intention to
withdraw its membership in the Authority should the amendment be
approved by the Board.
8.1.3 Continuing Liability; Further Assurances. A Party that withdraws its
membership in the Authority may be subject to certain continuing
liabilities, as described in Section 8.5 (Continuing Liability; Refund)
of this Agreement, including, but not limited to, power purchase
agreements and other Authority contracts and operational obligations.
The withdrawing Party and the Authority shall execute and deliver all
further instruments and documents and take any further action that
may be reasonably necessary, as determined by the Board, to
effectuate the orderly withdrawal of such Party from membership in
the Authority. The Board shall also consider, pursuant to Section
3.2.12, adoption of a policy that allows a withdrawing Party to
negotiate assignment to the Party of costs of electric power or other
resources procured on behalf of its customers by the Authority upon
its withdrawal. The Authority's policies shall prescribe the rights if
any of a withdrawn Party to continue to participate in those Board
discussions and decisions affecting customers of the CCA Program
that reside or do business within the jurisdiction of the Party. In the
implementation of this Section 8.1.3, the Parties intend, to the
maximum extent possible, without compromising the viability of
ongoing Authority operations, that any claims, demands, damages, or
liabilities covered hereunder, be funded from the rates paid by CCA
Program customers located within the service territory of the
withdrawing Party, and not from the general fund of the withdrawing
Party itself.
8.2 Termination of CCA Program. Nothing contained in Section 6 or elsewhere in
this Agreement shall be construed to limit the discretion of the Authority to
terminate the implementation or operation of the CCA Program at any time in
accordance with any applicable requirements of state law.
8.3 Involuntary Termination. This Agreement may be terminated with respect to a
Party for material non-compliance with provisions of this Agreement or Authority
documents upon a two-thirds vote of the Board in which the minimum Equal Vote
or Voting Shares Vote, as applicable in Section 4.11 (Board Voting) of this
Agreement, shall be no less than two-thirds vote excluding the vote and voting
shares of the Party subject to possible termination. Prior to any vote to terminate
this Agreement with respect to a Party, written notice of the proposed termination
and the reason(s) for such termination shall be delivered to the Party whose
termination is proposed at least 30 days prior to the regular Board meeting at
-22 -
253 of 271
SAN DIEGO REGIONAL COMMUNITY CHOICE ENERGY AUTHORITY —
JOINT POWERS AGREEMENT
which such matter shall first be discussed as an agenda item. The written notice
of proposed termination shall specify the particular provisions of this Agreement
or the Authority Documents that the Party has allegedly violated. The Party
subject to possible termination shall have the opportunity at the next regular
Board meeting to respond to any reasons and allegations that may be cited as a
basis for termination prior to a vote regarding termination. A Party that has had
its membership in the Authority terminated may be subject to certain continuing
liabilities, as described in Section 8.5 (Continuing Liability; Refund) of this
Agreement.
8.4 Mutual Termination. This Agreement may be terminated by mutual agreement
of all the Parties; provided, however, the foregoing shall not be construed as
limiting the rights of a Party to withdraw its membership in the Authority, and
thus terminate this Agreement with respect to such withdrawing Party, as
described in Section 8.1 (Withdrawal) of this Agreement.
8.5 Continuing Liability; Refund. Upon a withdrawal or involuntary termination of
a Party, the Party shall remain responsible for any claims, demands, damages, or
liabilities arising from the Party's membership in the Authority through the
effective date of its withdrawal or involuntary termination, it being agreed that the
Party shall not be responsible for any claims, demands, damages, or liabilities
commencing or arising after the date of the Party's withdrawal or involuntary
termination. In addition, such Party also shall be responsible for (a) any damages,
losses, or costs incurred by the Authority which result directly from the Party's
withdrawal or termination, including but not limited to costs arising from the
resale of capacity, electricity, or any attribute thereof no longer needed to serve
such Party's load; and (b) any costs or obligations associated with the Party's
customer participation in any program in accordance with the program's terms,
provided such costs or obligations were incurred prior to the withdrawal of the
Party. The withdrawing Party agrees to pay any such deposit determined by the
Authority to cover the Party's liability for the operational and contract costs
described above. Any amount of the Party's funds held on deposit with the
Authority above that which is required to pay any liabilities or obligations shall be
returned to the Party. In the implementation of this Section 8.5, the Parties intend,
to the maximum extent possible, without compromising the viability of ongoing
Authority operations, that any claims, demands, damages, or liabilities covered
hereunder, be funded from the rates paid by CCA Program customers located
within the service territory of the withdrawing Party, and not from the general
fund of the withdrawing Party itself.
8.6 Disposition of Authority Assets. Upon termination of this Agreement and
dissolution of the Authority by all Parties, and after payment of all obligations of
the Authority, the Board
8.6.1 May sell or liquidate Authority property; and
