Explanation:
Attached is a contract with Katz Architecture to complete plans and specifications for
the "face-lift" of the Public Works/Engineering/Human Resources and City Clerk lobby
area of the City Hall. Katz Architecture is very familiar with the City and its contracting
requirements as they are the architects for the new Fire Station currently under
construction. Katz Architecture will put together complete plans and specifications so
the City Hall remodeling project can be competitively bid in accordance with all
California State Public Contract Codes. The contract also procures Katz's assistance
during the bidding and construction phases of the project. The contract with Katz
Architecture is for a lump sum amount of $21,000. For further details of the work,
please see the scope of work section in the attached contract.
The construction cost is preliminarily estimated at between $130,000 and $150,000, not
including the systems furniture, chairs, etc (FFE). We are estimating the FFE at
$60,000. As part of the design process, Katz Architecture will assist in the selection of
systems furniture and layout workspaces to accommodate the selected systems.
Ergonomics of each workspace will be a high priority in the design.
Based upon the above, this remodeling project will cost in total (design, construction,
and furniture) between $211,000 and $231,000.
I estimate the design and contract documents will take 2 months to complete. A month
will then be required for a bidding period. Followed by two to three months for
construction. Night work or phased construction maybe necessary. This entire project
is estimated to require half a year to complete.

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
OF THE CITY OF NATIONAL CITY, CALIFORNIA,
APPROVING A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
FOR A SHOPPING CENTER AT THE NORTHWEST
CORNER OF PLAZA BOULEVARD AND HIGHLAND AVENUE AND A
VARIANCE FOR LESS THAN REQUIRED OFF-STREET PARKING, FOR A
SIGN IN THE 10 FOOT SETBACK AREA ALONG HIGHLAND AVENUE,
AND FOR TWO WALL SIGNS WHERE ONE IS ALLOWED
APPLICANT: STUDIO C ARCHITECTS
CASE FILE NOS. CUP-2003-29/Z-2003-12
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of National City considered a
Conditional Use Permit for a shopping center at the northwest corner of Plaza Boulevard
and Highland Avenue and a Variance. for less than required off-street parking, for a sign in
the 10 foot setback area, along Highland Avenue and for two wall signs where one is
allowed at a duly advertised public hearing held on May 4, 2004 at which time oral and
documentary evidence was presented; and
WHEREAS, at said public hearings the City Council considered the staff
report contained in Case File Nos. CUP-2003-29 and Z-2003-12, which is maintained by
the City and incorporated herein by reference along with evidence and testimony at said
hearing; and
WHEREAS, this action is taken pursuant to all applicable procedures
required by State law and City law; and
WHEREAS, the action recited herein is found to be essential for the
preservation of public health, safety, and general welfare.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of
National City, California, that the testimony and evidence presented to the City Council at
the public hearing held May 4, 2004, support the following findings:
FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL OF THE CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
1. That the site for the proposed use is adequate in size and shape, since the
rectangular one acre property is large enough to accommodate 13,100
square feet of retail space and 52 off-street parking spaces.
2. That the site has sufficient access to streets and highways that are
adequate in width and pavement type to carry the volume and type of traffic
generated by the proposed use, since the proposed addition of 3,700
square feet of retail space will generate approximately 150 average daily
trips, which can easily be accommodated by Plaza Boulevard (a prime
arterial) and Highland Avenue (a major arterial) which are both operating
below capacity.
Resolution No. 2004 — 81
May 18, 2004
Page Two
3. That the proposed use will not have an adverse effect upon adjacent or
abutting properties, since the property, which is currently used for
commercial purposes, is located in a major commercial corridor in the City.
4. That the proposed use is deemed essential and desirable to the public
convenience and welfare, since the project will upgrade the appearance
and functionality of a prominent commercial corner in the City.
FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL OF THE VARIANCE
1. That because of special circumstances applicable to the property, including
topography, and location or surroundings, the strict application of Title 18 of
the Municipal Code (Zoning) deprives such property of privileges enjoyed by
other property in the vicinity and under the identical zone classification,
since the sloping nature of the property and its location in a major
commercial corridor make it difficult to provide all required off-street parking
and to locate freestanding signs outside of required setback areas.
2. That the requested variance is subject to such conditions which will assure
that the adjustment authorized will not constitute a grant of special
privileges inconsistent with the limitations upon other properties in the
vicinity and zone in which such property is situated, since a condition of
approval restricting the area that can be devoted to a restaurant use will
lead to a mix of uses that will not generate a greater demand for parking
than will be provided on -site.
3. That the variance does not authorize a use or activity which is not otherwise
expressly authorized by the zoning regulations governing the parcel of
property, since retail strip commercial center are allowed in the General
Commercial Zone with a Conditional Use Permit.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the application for Conditional Use
Permit and Zone Variance is approved subject to the following conditions:
1. This Conditional Use Permit/ Zone Variance authorizes a shopping center
at the northwest corner of Plaza and Highland with a freestanding sign in
the setback area along Highland, two wall signs where one is allowed and a
total of 52 parking spaces where 66 are required. Except as required by
conditions of approval, all plans submitted for permits associated with the
project shall conform with Exhibit A -revised and B-revised, Case File no.

IS THERE A NEED FOR A REGIONAL FIRE

SAN DIEGO COUNTY?
,, DIEGC
>�yt,
A Report by the
San Diego County Grand Jury 2003-2004
March 10, 2004
Report 2003/4-01
IS THERE A NEED FOR A REGIONAL FIRE
AUTHORITY AND RESCUE HELICOPTERS IN
SAN DIEGO COUNTY?
In July 2003, the first month in its term, the San Diego County Grand Jury began an
investigation into the need for a Regional Fire and Rescue Helicopter Program and a
Regional Fire Authority to support it. The Grand Jury was in the final stages of the
investigation when Firestorm 2003 occurred. We are fully aware that other organizations
have undertaken investigations and are making recommendations relevant to this issue.
Nevertheless, the Grand Jury believes that issuing this report now will best serve the
citizens of San Diego rather than to wait until all the ongoing investigations are
completed.
SUMMARY
Several years ago, the San Diego Fire - Rescue Department recognized the potential
value of a large, well-equipped helicopter for public safety. They took the initiative to
secure both public and private funding which allowed the leasing of a Bell 212 HP
helicopter for trial programs during the 2002 and 2003 fire seasons; the aircraft was
designated County Copter 1. A 90-day pilot program was run in 2002 and a longer
program took place in 2003. The goal of the program was to provide a helicopter with
multi -mission capabilities for responses to firefighting and rescue incidents.
Before the programs with County Copter 1, the California Department of Forestry (CDF),
the Sheriffs ASTREA helicopter (with Bambi Bucket), and the U.S. Forest Service
provided air support for fire suppression. Because CDF and U.S. Forest Service air
support are not under local control they are subject to being called away to other fires
during the fire season. Until recently they were not available at all during the winter. In
the past, U.S. military firefighting air support was not authorized to provide help on short
notice.
County Copter 1 made its services available throughout all of San Diego County. During
the 90-day deployment in 2002, County Copter 1 responded to 45 emergency incidents.
During the total deployment in 2003 the helicopter responded to 185 incidents.
The Grand Jury found San Diego to be the only large county in the state that does not
have one or more fire and rescue helicopters. There is no single county coordination /
control organization for fire safety; in fact there are 53 independent fire agencies. The
San Diego County Fire Chiefs' Association, representing the chiefs of these agencies, has
sent letters to the San Diego County Board of Supervisors and SAFE (Service Authority
for Freeway Emergencies) stating their unanimous support for the Regional Fire and
Rescue Helicopter Program.
SAN DIEGO COUNTY GRAND JURY 2003 — 2004 (March 10, 2004) 1
Report 2003/4-01
After researching the San Diego Fire - Rescue Department proposal, the Grand Jury
concludes that the County of San Diego is in critical need of two or more regional fire /
rescue helicopters. The aircraft should be under the supervision of a yet to be defined
regional fire authority.
PURPOSE
The San Diego County Grand Jury initiated a study to answer the following questions:
• Is there a need for a regional fire / rescue helicopter program in San Diego County?
• Is there a need for a countywide regional fire authority?
DISCUSSION
At this time, there is no year round helicopter assigned to San Diego County that can
provide all the services that County Copter 1 has been providing on a seasonal basis.
Between July 1 and December 31, 2003 County Copter 1 responded to 185 incidents
(see Table 1). Included in these incidents were both wilderness and urban fire fighting.
They performed victim extrication from remote areas. They assisted in rescuing victims
from traffic accidents. They were able to deliver equipment and personnel to a scene of
an accident despite major traffic gridlock. They also transported a critically injured
victim to a trauma center significantly increasing the victim's chance of survival.

2 SAN DIEGO COUNTY GRAND JURY 2003 — 2004 (March 10, 2004)
Report 2003/4-01
County Copter 1 has a 375-gallon tank to be used for fire fighting. The tank can be filled
with either water or fire suppressant. To refill the tank using the built-in siphon and
pump, the crew can use any water source at least 18 inches deep and fill the tank in less
than two minutes while remaining airborne. By comparison, the Sheriff's helicopter uses
a "Bambi Bucket" with a 90-gallon capacity.
The County Copter 1 program has shown it can provide timely medical aid to injured and
ill patients when necessary as there are two paramedics on board. If the situation is
critical, County Copter 1 can transport a victim directly to the nearest trauma center.
Where appropriate, County Copter 1 can extricate a victim from the scene of an
emergency and transfer the victim to Mercy Air2 for transport to the nearest medical
facility. Mercy Air's crew includes a registered nurse for every incident and is qualified
to perform advanced medical treatment beyond that provided by paramedics.
One of the significant differences between the proposed helicopter(s) and those of the
Sheriff and other agencies is its ability to be configured for special purpose missions.
With its on -board hoist, it can be used to deliver fire fighters or lifeguards to the scene
and lower them to assist victims. Air rescue from high-rise structures, cliffs, floods or
swift water are also possible using the helicopter's rescue hoist. The helicopter(s) can
also transport Hazmat teams and their equipment. Hydraulic extrication equipment such
as the Jaws of Life is carried on the helicopter to assist with victim rescue from
automobile accidents.
To accomplish all of these missions, the fire / rescue helicopter(s) needs to have heavy
lift capability similar to the Bell 212 HP. Professional fire aircraft consultants should be
used to determine the actual aircraft specifications.
Current Program Capabilities and Equipment
• Advanced Life Support (ALS) Rescue Aircraft classification (County EMS)
• Paramedic Equipment (similar to a ground ambulance)
• Type 1 Flycrew (Sycuan Golden Eagles Hotshot Crew)
• Intemal Rescue Hoist (6001b. Capacity w/ 250 foot cable)
• 375-gallon Self -filling Fixed Tank (water or retardant drop)
• Longline (150 foot with remote hook for external cargo transportation)
• NightSun Searchlight (30 million candlepower)
• Rappel and Shorthaul
• Hydraulic Extrication Equipped (Jaws -of -Life)
• Water Rescue (harness, capture ball, cinch collar, personal floatation devices, etc.)
• Cervical Spine Immobilization Board and Pre -rigged Stokes Litter (Bauman Bag)
2 Mercy Air is a private service operating under a memorandum of understanding with the County to
provide air ambulance services.

Currently there is no countywide fire agency. There are 53 different local fire
departments, agencies, and authorities within the County. Additionally, there are state
(California Department of Forestry), federal (U.S Forest Service), and military fire
fighting organizations also functioning within the County. There are a number of mutual
aid agreements between many of the agencies, but the agreements are not countywide.
As a result of the seasonal program with County Copter 1, the San Diego Fire - Rescue
Department has recommended the formation of a regional county fire authority to run the
Regional Fire and Rescue Helicopter Program. The San Diego County Fire Chiefs'
Association, representing most of the county agencies, has also recommended the
creation of a regional fire authority. A member of the San Diego County Board of
Supervisors has recommended that an appointed governing body consisting of area fire
and emergency experts be created to oversee the Regional Fire and Rescue Helicopter
Program.
The Grand Jury believes that the funding of the Fire and Rescue Helicopter Program is a
major consideration. Due to budget constraints at all levels of government, there are no
easily identifiable funds available. Additionally, the method of acquisition needs to be
determined, either purchased or leased and whether the equipment should be new or used.
Each of the acquisition decisions will effect the funding required. One option that could
be evaluated is procuring a helicopter from the Federal Excess Property Program. A
major consideration when looking at the various methods of acquisition is the cost of
refurbishing the aircraft and ongoing maintenance costs.
PROCEDURES EMPLOYED
During the investigation, the Grand Jury obtained information from the following
sources:
• Interviewed: a San Diego Fire - Rescue Department Assistant Chief, an Acting
Battalion Chief, a City of San Diego Director of Development, an Orange County
Fire Chief, the Chief Pilot for L.A. County Fire Department.

Report 2003/4-01
FACTS AND FINDINGS
The first time a helicopter was used for assistance during a forest fire was in California in
1947. Since that time, helicopter use for fire and rescue work has expanded and become a
vital tool in most large communities nationwide. For the past two years, the San Diego
Fire - Rescue Department has run a fire and rescue helicopter trial program during the
local fire season. This year, at the end of the contract fire season, the helicopter left San
Diego only to be called back days later to help fight the firestorm that hit San Diego
County on October 25, 2003. County Copter 1 is continuing to service the county
through emergency funding from the City of San Diego.
The County Copter 1 program was available to provide services for all 53 county fire
agencies throughout San Diego County. There is no other program in San Diego County
that could perform the same year round comprehensive services County Copter 1
provided during its service. Services included: wild land firefighting, vehicle rescue, air
rescue, emergency medical services and hazardous materials response, aide to search and
rescue, cliff rescues, ocean and rough water rescues, as well as large animal rescues.
Based on fire — rescue helicopter programs in counties of similar size, there should be
two or more helicopters in the program.
The helicopter has transported the Sycuan Golden Eagle Hotshot Crew for insertion at
fire scenes throughout the county. They are a "first strike" ground team used to fight
wildfires by clearing brush and creating firebreaks.
The helicopter can deliver a 375-gallon water / retardant drop and quickly refill from a
nearby water source. The Sheriff's ASTREA helicopter has only the 90-gallon "Bambi
Bucket" for fire suppression. ASTREA does not carry the bucket on board and must land
to hook it up for a water drop. County Copter 1 can carry additional tools or replacement
equipment to be brought into remote areas as needed.
Due to the maximum height that a ladder can reach from any fire truck, (100 feet) normal
fire equipment often cannot reach upper stories of high-rise buildings. The fire rescue
helicopter hoist could be used for extraction of people from tall buildings during a
structure fire or life -threatening emergency.
The proposed helicopter(s) should be classified as an Advanced Life Support Rescue
Aircraft. With this classification, there would be a minimum of two trained and qualified
aircrew members and one flight paramedic responding with the helicopter(s) to all air
supported emergency incidents.
Mercy Air, the only privately operated air ambulance service in San Diego County, has a
memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the Fire and Rescue Helicopter Program
regarding protocols for transporting medical victims to the hospital. This agreement
6 SAN DIEGO COUNTY GRAND JURY 2003 — 2004 (March 10, 2004)
Report 2003/4-01
provides for a review process after each incident assuring all parties involved that the
appropriate functions were carried out.
The need for the Regional Fire and Rescue Helicopter Program is supported by:
• County of San Diego Board of Supervisors
• San Diego City Council
• San Diego Fire - Rescue Department
• Task Force on Fire Protection and Emergency Medical Services
• San Diego County Fire Chiefs' Association
• Service Authority for Freeway Emergencies (SAFE)
• Sycuan Band of the Kumeyaay Nation.
The San Diego County Fire Chiefs' Association recommended to the Board of
Supervisors that a professional consultant be utilized to conduct a study to examine the
helicopter firefighting requirements in San Diego County. The report should provide
recommendations on the level of protection needed, as well as, how to achieve the
protection and necessary funding.
COMMENDATION
The 2003/4 San Diego County Grand Jury commends Assistant Fire Chief August F.
Ghio and Acting Battalion Chief Brian Fennessy for their efforts in developing the San
Diego Fire - Rescue Helicopter program. Beginning in 1999, they led an effort to define
what a regional helicopter program should be. Working many long hours on their own
time, they were able to secure funding from diverse public and private sources for the
seasonal programs in 2002 and 2003. Since Firestorm 2003, there has been a
groundswell of support for a regional fire helicopter program. The work of Mssrs. Ghio
and Fennessy will be the basis from which the future program will develop.
RECOMMENDATIONS
04-01-1 The Grand Jury recommends the San Diego Regional Fire and Rescue
Helicopter Program should continue its current operation until a regional fire
authority is formed.
04-01-2 The Grand Jury recommends that the San Diego County Board of Supervisors
work with the City of San Diego to secure cooperative agreements and
financial support from the cities and fire districts in the county to fund the
interim operation of the San Diego Regional Fire and Rescue Helicopter
Program.
04-01-3 The Grand Jury recommends that the San Diego County Board of Supervisors
in cooperation with the San Diego Local Agency Formation Commission
(LAFCO) and other city and governmental fire agencies expedite the creation
of a regional fire authority.
SAN DIEGO COUNTY GRAND JURY 2003 — 2004 (March 10, 2004) 7
Report 2003/4-01
04-01-4 The Grand Jury recommends that the San Diego County Board of Supervisors
make the first priority of a regional fire authority be the establishment and the
operation of a year round Regional Fire and Rescue Helicopter Program with
two or more helicopters.
04-01-5 The Grand Jury recommends that the San Diego County Board of Supervisors
work with all governmental fire agencies to identify and secure the funding
necessary for the Regional County Fire Authority to establish, manage, and
operate a Regional Fire and Rescue Helicopter Program.
04-01-6 The Grand Jury recommends that the San Diego County Board of Supervisors
consider the recommendations from the professional consultant contracted by
the City of San Diego, in cooperation with the San Diego County Fire Chiefs'
Association, to determine the specifications for the fire / rescue helicopter(s).

RE: City of National City's Response to the 2004 Grand Jury Report on "Is There A Need For A
Regional Fire Authority And Rescue Helicopters In San Diego County?" - Recommendations
04-01-2 through 04-01-5
Dear Sir:
On March 4, 2004, the City received correspondence from the Grand Jury regarding recommendations
04-01-2 through 04-01-5. The above captioned report was attached to the March letter. The balance of
this correspondence is devoted to the Grand Jury's Recommendations 04-01-2 through 04-01-5.
Recommendation 04-01-2: The Grand Jury writes:
"The Grand Jury recommends that the San Diego County Board of Supervisors work
with the City of San Diego to secure cooperative agreements and financial support from
the cities and fire districts in the county to fund the interim operation of the San Diego
Regional Fire and Rescue Helicopter Program."
Comment: This City Council believes that a Regional Fire and Rescue Helicopter
Program will be of benefit. The benefit will service the unincorporated areas of the
County the greatest. However, we do not believe that the required expenditures from
National City's Budget for this program will provide the City of National City with
increased capabilities to justify the expenditure. National City's history shows that the
National City Fire Department (NCFD) has not requested aerial fire or rescue support of
this type. NCFD has on occasion utilized the services of an air ambulance to expedite
the transportation of victims of traumatic injuries to local trauma hospitals.
Recommendation 04-01-3: The Grand Jury writes:
"The Grand Jury recommends that the San Diego County Board of Supervisors in
cooperation with the San Diego Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO) and
other city and governmental fire agencies expedite the creation of a regional fire
authority."
Comment: This City Council is in concurrence with this recommendation. We are
unclear, however, on the level of involvement expected of National City.

Recommendation 04-01-4: The Grand Jury writes:
"The Grand Jury recommends that the San Diego County Board of Supervisors make the
first priority of a regional fire authority be the establishment and the operation of a year
round Regional Fire and Rescue Helicopter Program with two or more helicopters."
Comment: This City Council is in concurrence with this recommendation.
Recommendation 04-01-5: The Grand Jury writes:
"The Grand Jury recommends that the San Diego County Board of Supervisors work
with all governmental fire agencies to identibi and secure the funding necessary for the
Regional County Fire Authority to establish, manage, and operate a Regional Fire and
Rescue Helicopter Program."
Comment: This City Council does not believe that the City of National City should be
financially liable for the purchase, operation, and maintenance of a Regional Helicopter.
If a Regional County Fire Authority (JPA) were to be created, for National City to accept
financial liability, the Authority should offer other emergency resources than a
helicopter(s).
We collectively acknowledge the time invested and the concern shown in this Grand Jury report by the
Jury members. We share much of that concern, however, we also know that we do not know all the
answers to the questions that they have raised. We would be pleased to support their future review of
obtaining a Regional Fire and Rescue Helicopter and governance issues and hope that we have been
responsive to the recommendations raised in the report at hand.

Project Summary
The City of National City will collaborate with People for Trees (PFT), a local nonprofit urban
forestry group, to integrate volunteer tree -planting efforts into the Parks Department. Residents,
volunteers, and civic leaders will plant 500 right-of-way trees under this proposal with PFT
educating the public, facilitating community involvement, and inspiring support for tree
maintenance in urban residential areas. The objectives will be to:
1. Educate public and private property owners about the beneficial role of trees in the urban
environment.
2. Plant large canopied trees that will intercept rainfall and particulates, reducing storm water
runoff and flooding.
3. Foster collaboration among agencies and community groups.
Need & Description
National City is the second oldest city in San Diego County with a population of 54,260
citizens in 9.2 square miles. Incorporated on September 17, 1887, National City was originaily
part of the 26,000-acre El Rancho de la Nacion, which was purchased in 1868 by Frank
Kimball and his brothers Warren and Levi. They cleared lands, built roads, constructed the
City's first wharf and brought the railroad to the City. The Kimballs planted hundreds of olive
trees in 6-foot parkway strips to line the streets of National City to complement rows of
Victorian homes but over the years, all but a few of the olive trees succumbed to age and
disease, leaving many streets with large empty parkways.
With an active commercial port, National City is on the San Diego Bay and is also
home to the Sweetwater March National Wildlife Refuge, sustained by the Sweetwater River,
which forms a natural border along the City's southern boundary. The City is sensitive to the
delicate ecosystem that exists in our jurisdiction and has adopted a comprehensive storm water
pollution prevention program to protect the marshes. As urban forestry research has concluded,
planting large canopied and evergreen trees to capture rainfall and reduce the impact of storm
runoff is one of the easiest and cheapest ways to prevent water pollution. According to the
Center for Urban Forest Research, a large tree can intercept up to 760 gallons of rainfall in its
crown, thereby reducing runoff of polluted storm water.
Trees can be part of the City's mission to reducing urban runoff. However, the
challenge for National City's Parks Department has been to provide trees for exposed streets
with increasingly limited staff and resources while promoting the importance of proper tree
maintenance. This program will help create an awareness and appreciation for our watershed,
educate the public about the role of trees in watershed management, and inspire community
involvement in the replanting of 500 trees in our local neighborhoods.

Partnerships benefit the city in that it gives the public works department a chance to be
directly connected with the community, and they get more trees planted. The goal of the
National City Community Tree Program will be to present an opportunity for the City Parks
Department, People for Trees, residents, and volunteers to work together to plant the right trees
in the right place and provide for long-term maintenance that will ensure long-term benefits.
On or before the day of planting, People for Trees staff will coordinate the excavation
of each tree site, coordinate the delivery of trees, tools, and planting materials, inspect the trees
for quality and reject inferior trees, place right-of-way barriers and direct traffic, arrange for
debris removal, and ensure the site is cleaned -up.
PFT will be the City's partner in providing the education and planting. They will utilize
their extensive database of volunteers that incorporates community members of varied
socioeconomic backgrounds, including sgouting groups, church youth groups, school clubs,
civic and professional organizations, and volunteer organizations. Each group will be involved
on a different level depending on the locale and size of the event. It is anticipated that there
will be up to 25 planting events, providing a minimum of 10-20 volunteers who will each work
at least four hours.
The Park Superintendent and People for Trees will work together to target
neighborhoods under their jurisdiction that will accommodate large canopy and evergreen trees
to provide maximum environmental benefits. The project sites will include public parks and
street parkways in residential and commercial areas. People for Trees will conduct
neighborhood meetings to promote the program and provide educational materials. Tree City
USA Bulletins, particularly #19, How to Select and Plant a Tree, will be provided at no charge
to the public.
The PFT project coordinator will create a permanent file for each event that will include
a project summary report, the nursery order and subcontractor's invoices, tree maintenance
agreements, and any relevant correspondence or comments. A monthly tree count summary
tracked on a database will ensure the programs' progress and compliance with stated grant
guidelines and goals. Files will include the names and addresses of tree recipients, the number,
location, and species of trees, and who will be responsible for the tree's maintenance.
National City Parks Department will notify City Council Offices once the grant has
been awarded and forward interested participants to People for Trees. PFT will contact
Community Planning Groups and Town Councils to announce the availability of free trees and
opportunities to participate in community tree plantings. Public notices will be placed in the
community newspapers. PFT will publicize the program on their web site,
www.peoplefortrees.ors, where participants can download applications and maintenance
agreements.

Explanation:
In June 2003, the Mayor directed staff to create a database of delinquent properties for
the purpose of collecting past due Sewer Service Fees. After reviewing our options, it
was decided that contracting with PBS&J would be our best choice for this project due
to their familiarity with this and other related projects.
PBS&J will review the Finance department's sewer billing databases and prepare a list
of delinquent accounts. This list of delinquent account will be broken into two parts. The
first list will consist of those sewer accounts that can be identified as property owners
who received the original sewer service bill and who are still currently the owners of that
property. These property owners will then be sent the first of two notifications that their
delinquent payment is due and a lien will be filed with the County if not paid by July 1,
2004. If the delinquent charges and any appropriate penalties are still not paid by July 1,
2004, the total amount due to the City will be placed on the tax rolls and a lien will be
placed against their property.
The second part will be tenants or properties the have changed ownership. This list may
not be placed on the tax rolls and will have to be dealt with by a separate collection
process.
PBS&J will match this information of property owner that can be liened with the current
tax assessor information and determine appropriate interest and lien processing
charges. PBS&J will then provide this list of delinquent accounts to the City Clerk's
office to be published in the newspaper prior to any public hearing as outlined in the
Health and Safety Code 5470-5474.10. PBS&J will prepare the tax rolls for acceptance
by the City Council. Once approved, it will be sent to the County for processing. PBS&J
will then prepare and record all "Notice of Lien" with the County.
This agreement will also would include response to customer phone calls and inquiries.

SUBJECT: Procedures for Collecting Sewer Charges on the Tax Roll, for
collecting Delinquent Sewer Charges on the Tax Roll, and for Placing
Liens on Real Property for Delinquent Sewer Charges
The following summarizes the procedures for collecting sewer charges on the tax
roll, for collecting delinquent sewer charges on the tax roll, and for placing liens on
real property for delinquent sewer charges. These procedures are set forth in
Sections 5470-5474.10 of the California Health and Safety Code, as well as in
Chapter 14.04 of the National City Municipal Code.
Collection of Current Sewer Charges on the Tax Roll
After adopting an ordinance to collect sewer charges on the tax roll, the City may
cause a written report to be prepared each year and filed with the City Clerk, which
shall contain a description of each parcel of real property receiving sewer services,
and the amount of the charge for each parcel for the year. (I recommend that the
City Council adopt a resolution directing the Acting Director of Public
Works/Engineering to cause such report to be prepared. Accordingly, I will
prepare an item for the May 4 Council meeting to submit the appropriate resolution
to the City Council).
The City Clerk must then cause a notice of the filing of said report and of a time
and place of a hearing to consider the report to be published once a week for two
successive weeks.
At the time of the hearing, the City Council shall hear and consider all objections or
protests to the report. If the Council finds that protest is made by the owners of a
majority of separate parcels of property described in the report, then the report
shall not be adopted andthe charges shall not be collected on the tax roll. Where
there is not a majority protest, the City Council may adopt, revise, change, reduce
or modify any charge or overrule any and all objections, and make a final
determination upon each charge described in the report.
On or before August 10 of each year, the City Clerk shall file with the Auditor a
copy of the report with a statement over his signature that the report has been
finally adopted by the City Council, and the Auditor shall enter the amounts of the
charges against each parcel on the assessment roll.
The above procedure entails two appearances before the City Council: one to
authorize the report, and one to hold the public hearing and adopt the report.
Collection of Delinquent Sewer Charges on the Tax Roll
The procedure described above for collection of current sewer charges on the tax
roll may also be followed to place collection of delinquent charges on the tax roll.
However, the law requires that before charges can be collected on the tax roll for
the first time, the City Clerk shall cause written notice of the filing of the report and
of the required hearing to be mailed to each person to whom any parcel of real
property described in the report is assessed. If the City Council adopts the report,
then the requirement of mailed written notice is not required in subsequent years;
only notice by publication is required. (My conservative interpretation of these
requirements is that although the City Council adopted an ordinance last year
authorizing collection of current charges on the tax roll, collection of delinquent
charges on the tax roll has not previously been authorized. Therefore, as to
delinquent charges to be placed on the tax roll this year, I recommend that both
the written notice and published notice requirements should be complied with.
Whether one or two written notices are mailed I will leave to your discretion).
Placement of Liens against Real Property for Delinquent Charges
In addition to being collected on the tax roll, delinquent charges constitute a lien
against the parcel of real property against which the charge has been imposed.
When the charges are delinquent for 60 days, the City Clerk shall set the
delinquent accounts for hearing. Notice of the hearing shall be served upon the
owner of the property at least 10 days prior to the hearing. Notice must be served
in the same manner as a summons in a civil suit, which generally means personal
service. If the owner of the property cannot be found, then the notice may be
served by posting the property for a period of 10 days, and by publishing notice 10
days in advance. At the hearing, the City Council may approve the charges as
submitted, or approve them with modifications or corrections, after considering any
written or oral protest or objection. The amounts so approved shall be placed on
the tax roll, and shall constitute a lien upon the property affected. The City Council
shall adopt a resolution assessing the charges as liens against the property, and
shall cause to be recorded with the County Recorder a certificate specifying the
amount of unpaid charges.
2 Procedures for Collecting Sewer Charges on the Tax Roll
Penalties
The law provides that the City may provide for a basic penalty of not more than 10
percent for nonpayment of the charges within the time and in the manner
prescribed per month for nonpayment of the charges and basic penalty. •
I interpret this to mean that once charges are delinquent for 60 days, a 10 percent
penalty apply to the delinquent amount. Thereafter, for each month that the
charges remain delinquent and unpaid, an additional penalty of 11/2 percent of the
basic charges and basic penalty be assessed.
Lien Processing Fee
Section 14.04.070 of the Municipal Code provides that for each sewer service
account which has a delinquent sewer service charge balance that is transferred
into the City's processing system for the establishment of same as a lien to be
collected upon the tax rolls, there is levied thereon a lien transfer fee, in such an
amount as shall be set from time to time by resolution of the City Council, to be
added to the delinquent account balance to reimburse the City for the actual cost
of data processing, accounting, public notice and control procedures related to the
lien processing system; provided, however, that no lien transfer fee shall be levied
on any delinquent account unless and until 10 days' written notice of the intent to
levy such fee is given to the delinquent user in question, together with the notice of
delinquent charges.
I am available to discuss these issues at your convenience.

ITEM TITLE Notice of Decision — Approval of a Variance for a three foot side yard setback where five
feet is required for a single-family house on the west side of the 1500 block of Coolidge Avenue
(Applicant: Jose A. Gutierrez) (Case File no.: Z-2004-2)
RGP
PREPARED T Roger G. Post, 336-4310 DEPARTMENT Planning
EXT.
EXPLANATION The 2,500 square foot project site is located on the west side of the 1500 block of Coolidge
Avenue in the Light Manufacturing Residential (MLR) Zone. The flat, rectangular property has 25 feet of
frontage on Coolidge Avenue and is 100 feet deep. It is currently undeveloped.
Jose Gutierrez, the applicant and property owner, proposes to build an approximately 1,600
square foot single-family house with a one -car garage. The house will have three bedrooms and two and
a half bathrooms, and it will be two stories tall (23 feet) with a gable roof and stucco exterior. The 15
foot wide house will be setback approximately 13 feet from the front property line along Coolidge
Avenue, and five feet from the south property line. The garage and a portion of the house will only be
three feet from the north property line however. It will have a 25 foot deep rear yard area. The majority
of the area in front of the house will be paved as a driveway and parking space. There is no landscaping
proposed for the property; however, conditions of approval require the property to be landscaped.
Planning Commission held a public hearing on this item at their April 19, 2004 meeting.
Although there was no public testimony at the hearing, the Commissioners discussed the appropriateness
of the house design for the narrow lot, emergency access to the second floor and the usability of the yard
areas. They voted to approve the Variance noting that the small size and narrow width of the lot greatly
increases the difficulty of developing a house on the lot, in a way that satisfies all City development
standards.

A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION
OF THE CITY OF NATIONAL CITY, CALIFORNIA,
APPROVING A ZONE VARIANCE FOR A
THREE FOOT SIDE YARD SETBACK WHERE FIVE FEET
IS REQUIRED FOR A SINGLE-FAMILY HOUSE
ON THE WEST SIDE OF THE 1500 BLOCK OF COOLIDGE AVENUE
APPLICANT: JOSE A. GUTIERREZ
CASE FILE NO. Z-2004-2
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of National City considered a Zone
Variance application for a three foot side yard setback where five feet is required for a single-
family house on the west side of the 1500 block of Coolidge Avenue at a duly advertised public
hearing held on April 19, 2004 at which time oral and documentary evidence was presented; and,
WHEREAS, at said public hearings the Planning Commission considered the staff report
contained in Case File No. Z-2004-2, which is maintained by the City and incorporated herein by
reference along with evidence and testimony at said hearing; and,
WHEREAS, this action is taken pursuant to all applicable procedures required by State
law and City law; and,
WHEREAS, the action recited herein is found to be essential for the preservation of
public health, safety, and general welfare.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Planning Commission of the City of
National City, California, that the testimony and evidence presented to the Planning Commission
at the public hearing held on April 19, 2004, support the following findings:
1. That because of special circumstances applicable to the property, including size,
shape, topography, location or surroundings, the strict application of Title 18 of the
Municipal Code (Zoning) deprives such property of privileges enjoyed by other
property in the vicinity and under the identical zone classification, since the small
size and narrowness of the property coupled with required side yard setback areas
results in a 15 foot wide developable area, making development of the site very
difficult.
2. That the requested variance is subject to such conditions which will assure that the
adjustment authorized will not constitute a grant of special privileges inconsistent
with the limitations upon other properties in the vicinity and zone in which such
property is situated, since the Variance will allow the development of a single-
family house with the required off-street parking and sufficient yard area consistent
with much of the development in the area and under the same zone designation.
3 That the variance does not authorize a use or activity which is not otherwise
expressly authorized by the zoning regulations governing the parcel of property,
since one single-family house per property is allowed in the Light Manufacturing
Residential (MLR) Zone.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the application for Zone Variance is approved subject
to the following conditions:
1. This Zone Variance authorizes the construction of a single-family house with a one -
car garage within three feet of the north property line. Minimum exterior garage
width shall not be less than 11 feet; interior widths shall be 11 feet less thickness of
the walls. Except as required by conditions of approval, all plans submitted for
permits associated with the project shall conform with Exhibit A, Case File no. Z-
2004-2, dated 3/15/2004.

Memo
To: Mayor and City Council
From: Chris Zapata, City Manager
Date: April 19, 2004
Re: COMPREHENSIVE PUBLIC SAFETY STRATEGY DISCUSSION
Background
At the March 13 City Council Planning Retreat, Public Safety was identified as your
top priority. Considering existing public safety needs and the rapid pace of
development in National City, I have created a team to develop public safety
recommendations and strategies for your review.
Discussion
National City is centered in an urban area of 5 million residents with many visitors
and a transient population. This along with our proximity to downtown San Diego,
major freeways, trolley stops and military presence creates many challenges with
respect to public safety. New development such as the Education Center will bring
many new students and opportunities. The flip side is demand for services will
increase and existing traffic and public safety infrastructure will be stretched.
National City has the highest violent crime rate per 1,000 population when compared
to other cities in the county. With property crime, National City ranks second behind
Del Mar. Third is the City of El Cajon. Regarding the Fire Service, 75% of all service
requests are emergency medical calls. Traffic and congestion is a problem today
and will worsen. The ability to proactively address these issues is our goal.
With ongoing public safety needs and rapid development occurring, a
comprehensive approach is necessary. Residents, businesses, visitors, the
environment and motorists are impacted daily. Staff suggests the following key
areas be considered:
1) Additional Facilities
Third Fire Station
Second Police Substation
H:\CM Chron\Public Safety Strategy Discussion.doc

► Police Storefront Operation/Plaza Bonita Mall
► Police Storefront Operation/Highland Avenue
► Targeted Street Lighting/High Crime Area
2) Advanced Technology/Equipment
► Corridor Surveillance Cameras
► Mobile Speed Indicators
► Red Light Cameras
► BAIT Cars Auto Theft
3) Expanded Programs
► Language and Diversity Training
► Officers in Schools Program
► Advanced Life Safety Capability — Paramedic Service
► Take Home Cars for Officers Living in National City
► Housing Incentive Program, i.e., low interest loans for public safety
personnel to encourage residency
► Safe Routes to and from Schools
► Bike Patrol
► Park Security
► Neighborhood Speed Humps
► Enhanced Youth Involvement Programs - Police Cadets, Jr.
Paramedic
4) Additional Personnel
► Advanced Life Saving/Paramedic Service
► Additional Police Personnel (clerical and support staff)
► Additional Fire Personnel for Third Station

Summary
Benefits of these improvements will be better response times, advanced life
safety capabilities, community presence and a more livable city for residents,
business, visitors and investors.
Public and private investment is creating opportunity, growth and challenges.
Incrementally addressing public safety through addition of officers is the model
manycities follow. However, public safety involves many areas from response
times to environmental property protection. Staff is recommending the City
Council consider making dramatic improvement to public safety in National City.
A comprehensive program that involves facilities, varied locations,. programs,
technology, partnerships as well as personnel will accomplish this.
Recommendation
Direct staff to:
(1) Proceed with recommendations to improve public safety, develop associated
one-time and ongoing costs, examine potential locations, and identify benefits
and benchmarks as well as potential funding mechanisms.
(2) Develop a communication strategy and forum(s) that provides for public and
stakeholder discussion and input on this community matter.

Hold Public Hearing Regarding Appropriation of FY 2003/2004 Supplemental
Law Enforcement Services Fund.
Lt. Keith Fifield
336-4543
Assembly Bill 3229, Chapter 134, Statutes of 1996, established the Citizen's Option for Public
Safety (COPS) program to provide local law enforcement supplemental funding to eligible
jurisdictions, as defined for public safety purposes. Under the State COPS program, the City of
National City was allocated $100,000 as its share for fiscal year 2003/2004. These funds must
be expended or encumbered by June 30, 2005, or be remitted to the State Controller for deposit
into the General Fund. In the case of a city, the City Council is required to appropriate existing
and anticipated COPS moneys exclusively to fund front line municipal police services. COPS
funds shall be appropriated pursuant to written requests from the Chief of Police. The requests
must specify the front line law enforcement needs of the requesting entity including personnel,
equipment and programs. Pursuant to AB 3229, the City Council must hold a public hearing to
consider these requests. Funding will be determined by a majority of those Council members
present at the Council meeting within 60 days of receiving the request for funding. The City
Council must consider these written requests separate and apart from the proposed allocations
from the City General Fund. (Continued on page 2)

Services Fund.

Explanation (Continued)
In prior years, the County Auditor & Controller transferred the funds to the cities without first
involving the Supplemental Law Enforcement Oversight Committee (SLEOC). As of last year,
the statute requires the SLEOC to certify receipt of an approved expenditure plan from the
governing board of that agency, in this case either the Board of Supervisors or the City Councils.
After the SLEOC approves the expenditure plan the funds will be transferred to the City.
Proposal
The National City Police Department and Acting Chief Pauu are therefore submitting a request
that the City Council appropriate FY 2003/2004 Supplemental Law Enforcement Services Fund
monies per the below requested proposals qnd request a resolution authorizing the expenditures.
This year the Police Department requests authorization to fund two projects that Were identified
as front line needs within the Police Department that could not otherwise be funded.
The first project proposal is the replacement of the Department issued service pistoL In 2003 Lt.
Gary Clark prepared a detailed replacement study and staff report regarding the replacement of
the current service pistols. The report is attached for review. In 1987 the Department began to
transition from revolvers to semi -automatic pistols. The pistol purchased and issued to officers
was the 9mm Smith & Wesson Model 5904. The expected service life for these pistols is ten
years, which was surpassed in 1999. Our current inventory of pistols includes many that are no
longer serviceable. Lt. Clark's report concluded that the Glock 35 and Glock 27 pistols were the
best selection to replace our Smith & Wesson 5904 pistols. The current pistols are no longer
suitable for police use and they should be replaced as soon as possible before a catastrophic
failure of one of the pistols results in the injury or death to an officer or a citizen.
This is a large expenditure that would severely impact the general fund since it is not a budgeted
item, especially when considering the current budget crisis in California. By utilizing SLESF
funds we can meet this pressing safety equipment need without impacting already limited public
safety budgets while fulfilling the SLESF requirement to fund front line police services, which
include personnel, equipment and programs. The estimated cost to replace our current pistols
with the Glock 35 and Glock 27 pistols including all accessories and web gear is $58,500. This
price is also based on a $17,550 credit for trading in 90 of the S&W 5904 pistols at a rate of
$195.00 each.
The second project proposal is the installation and purchase of eight new workstations in the
patrol sergeant workspace. The sergeant's office currently consists of four desks, four phones
and three computers. The desks only allow for one person to occupy them at a time, the
computers are aging and barely adequate, and storage space for files and equipment is at its limit.
Eight sergeants assigned to the patrol division share this workspace that, as currently designed, is
..adequate for four. (Continued on page 3).
Council Agenda Statement
Hold Public Hearing Regarding Appropriation of FY 2003/2004 Supplemental Law Enforcement
Services Fund.
Page 3
The sergeants as a group identified their work area as inadequate for their needs and requested
that the office be updated to include eight separate workstations, each station with a desktop
computer and a phone. Sergeants are the backbone of the organization and run the 24-hour front
line operations of the police department. Their workload and level of responsibilities is very
high and with the way their workspace currently functions they often must wait for other
sergeants to vacate the workspace to conduct business. After the sergeants made the request to
update their workspace, patrol staff committed to identifying a funding source to complete the
project.
As we were identifying needs of the department to allocate SLESF funds, and after clearly
identifying the need to replace the service pistols as the first priority, it became apparent that
updating the sergeant's workspace would fit the purposes of SLESF and cost the balance of the
SLESF funds. The police department staff views updating the sergeant's office as a priority that
will allow our front line supervisors to provide excellent service to the citizens by modernizing
their workspace. Again, given the current status of the State budget crisis this type of project
would not be considered through the normal budget process and we see the use of SLESF monies
as an opportunity to provide an updated modern workspace to our supervisors that we would
otherwise not be in a position to provide. The estimated cost of updating the sergeant's
workspace with eight workstations, eight desktop computers, four additional phones, four
additional office chairs, two digital audio recorders and wireless network hardware is $41,500.
Listed on page four is the requested expenditure budget with account numbers. All amounts
include budget for tax and shipping charges and are rounded up for possible cost increases in the
purchasing process. See page four.

NATIONAL CITY POLICE DEPARTMENT
Staff Report
Project Plan For:
Replacement of the Department Issued Smith & Wesson Model 5904
January 12, 2003
Prepared By:
Lt. Gary K. Clark
BACKGROUND:
The currently issued Department Service Pistol is the Smith & Wesson Model 5904. The
Smith & Wesson Model 5904 is a 9mm semi -automatic pistol. These pistols were
purchased in 1987 when the Department transitioned from revolvers to semi -automatic
pistols. The Range Staff did not recommend the Smith & Wesson Model 5904. The
5904 has a finish that was known to corrode and adjustable sights, which are difficult to
maintain, and not needed for a Department issued firearm. The Range Staff had
recommended a Smith & Wesson model with fixed sights in stainless steel or the Glock
17.
At the time of transition, the Department chose a 9mm pistol based on an FBI study that
suggested the 9mm round was superior. At the same time, nationwide, most police
departments adopted the 9mm as their standard caliber firearm. Unfortunately, within
one year of that 1987 FBI study, the FBI acknowledged it had erred and began transition
_ to .40 caliber pistols.
Many Departments (like NCPD) were unable to finance an immediate change to larger
caliber pistols such as a .40 or .45 caliber. The 9mm was not considered the best
available round for Law Enforcement, but was acceptable.
Since 1987, the FBI has conducted more extensive research into ammunition ballistics
and publishes the results every five years. The most current study was published in 1997.
The FBI no longer suggests what caliber or ammunition may be the best for Law
Enforcement use, it merely provides guidance in setting some minimum
recommendations.
The expected ten-year service life for the Department issued Smith & Wesson Model
5904 pistols has been surpassed. Our current inventory of pistols includes many that are
no longer serviceable. At the time we purchased the Smith & Wesson pistols, Smith &
Wesson had factory authorized service representatives throughout the country. Smith &
Wesson no longer provides service for their weapons except for repair at the factory or
sending officers to their factory gunsmith class. I do not recommend that officers be
trained to be gunsmiths for our currently owned, complicated pistols. This makes it a
costly and time consunvng endeavor to repair weapons.
It is therefore recommended that the Department replace the worn out Smith & Wesson
pistols during the 2003/2004-budget year. In doing so, I recommend changing to a .40
Caliber Pistol.
i
DEPARTMENT ISSUED PISTOL SPECWICATION PROCESS:
In determining what would be best for replacing the current Smith & Wesson pistols, the
Range Staff needed to create minimum specifications
The first step in this process was to determine what information was needed to assist in
the evaluation of currently available model pistols and ammunition. Range Staff Officers
obtained the following information:
• Gunsmith Inspection of NCPD Current Pistols.
• NCPD Range Staff Recommendations.
• NCPD Survey.
• San Diego County Law Enforcement Ammunition & Issued Pistol Information.
• FBI Ballistics Study.
• Tacoma Washington Police Department Pistol Study information.
• Pistol Prices,
• NCPD Test Fire; Glock Pistols.
The following are the results of the information obtained:
2
GUNSMITH INSPECTION OF NCPD CURRENT PISTOLS:
Senior Officer Don Smith took (7) NCPD Smith & Wesson 5904s to be inspected. These
pistols were selected at random. The pistols were inspected by Hugo Alvarez, Manager;
Duncan's Gunworks, Inc, San Marcos California. Instructions were given to Mr. Alvarez
to evaluate the pistols and determine if they were in a condition compatible with Police
Service.
Specific areas of inspection that needed to be checked included:
• Frame & Slide wear.
• Barrel wear.
• Spring tensions (recoil, extractor, magazine).
• Sear wear.
• Extractor conditions, and;
• General condition.
All inspected pistols were test fired, disassembled and checked for broken parts and wear.
Mr. Alvarez determined that 1.00% of the inspected pistols were NOT suitable for police
service. All would be fine for training, but all showed medium to high usage wear and
four were identified to have immediate repair needs.
If we were to continue service of the Smith & Wesson 5904s in stock, I would suggest all
be sent to the Smith & Wesson factory for evaluation and repair. I suspect that the cost
of such work would outweigh the value of the weapons.
NCPD RANGE STAFF RECOMMENDATIONSk
The first step in this process was sending out a survey to all Range Staff officers. Once
the surveys were in, a meeting was scheduled. On November 6th, 2002, the Range Staff
met to consider specific recommendations. The Range Staff agreed upon the following
minimum specifications:
• The pistol magazines should have no less than ten rounds.
• The pistol should be easy to use and train with.
• The pistol should be easy to maintain by the officer.
• The pistol should have night sights.
• The pistol should have an incorporatedaccessory rail.
• The pistol material should be resistant to wear.
• The pistol should have an excellent warranty.
• The pistol should be capable of being serviced "in-house".
• The caliber should be either a .40 or .45 caliber.
• As much as possible, the pistol should have a grip size that will conform to the
majority of the officers on the Department.
• The pistol should be extremely reliable.
• The pistol should have a consistent trigger pull of a minimum 4.5 lbs, to a
maximum 5.5 lbs.
• The pistol should not be a "Browning" design.
• The manufacturer should have extensive experience in Law Enforcement pistols.
• The pistol should be reasonably priced.
After two hours of discussion, it was unanimously felt that there was only one firearms
manufacturer that could meet the minimum specifications agreed upon. Range Staff
recommended the purchase of a Glock pistol for replacement of the Smith & Wesson
Model 5904. Since the FBI Ballistics Report had not yet been received, the caliber was
not agreed upon at this meeting. However, all Range Staff felt that the selection of
another 9mm pistol would not be acceptable.
It was felt that a Glock pistol was the best choice for the following reasons;
• Reliability. (Glock extensively tested its pistols. Glock test fired over 700,000
rounds through a pistol and simply stopped testing, since further testing would be
senseless.)
• Reputation. (Several Armies throughout the world, including Austria and Norway,
as well as fifty percent of the United States Law Enforcement community are
currently using Glock pistols. In 1999 Glock manufactured its two -millionth
pistol.)
• Ease of use and training. (Glock's safety system eliminates the need to additional
training and the trigger pull is the same for every shot.)
• Ease of general maintenance. (Glock pistols have less moving parts than others
and are easy to break down and clean.)
4
• Ability to train all Range Staff to repair "in-house". (Glock is the only
manufacturer that builds a pistol where parts are completely interchangeable,
without having to gunsmith replacement parts. The Armorer's course is a one -
day course that currently costs $85.00 per student. The course is routinely offered
locally. The number of tools needed to repair a Glock pistol is ONE. In contrast,
to qualify an officer as an Armorer for Smith & Wesson pistols the course is
several days at their factory and an extensive/expensive tool kit is required.)
• Ability to obtain replacement parts. (Our experience with Glock indicates about a
three-day wait for parts, in comparison to two to six weeks with other
manufacturers.)
• Glock's "government " warranty is 40,000 rounds (This is generally accepted to
be a guns barrel life. This would roughly equal a thirty plus year warranty at the
present ammunition use rate by our officers. Compared to most manufacturers
one-year warranty.)
• Glock pistols have the highest magazine capacity available, compared to similar
caliber pistols.
• The finish on the Glock pistols is rated on the Rockwell scale one level below
diamonds. (Staff experience indicates it has the most durable finish experienced
on pistols to date. Including aftermarket finishes.)
It was determined that the caliber selection should be based on the following two
principles:
1. What caliber best meets the needs for defensive firepower, and;
2. What caliber is easiest to control by the average police officer, taking into
consideration the recoil and grip size?
5
NCPD SURVEY:
To get an idea of what firearms are popular among the rank and file officer for the
National City Police Department, I obtained information from the last qualification shoot
(Summer 2002). This determined what pistols NCPD officers are currently carrying. The
following is the result of that study:
Currently carrying:
Manufacturer Pistol Caliber Number of Officers
Colt 1911 style .45 6
Kimber 1911 style .45 2
Para -Ordinance 1911 style .45 1
Springfield 1911 style .45 1
HK USP40 .40 2
HK USP45 .45 3
Sig Sauer P226 9mrn 3
Sig Sauer P229 .40 2
Sig Sauer P220 .45 5
Berretta 92 9mm 3
Berretta 96 .40 2
Smith & Wesson 5904 9mm 12
Smith & Wesson 4506 .45 1
Glock 17 9mm 7
Glock 22 .40 12
Glock 23 .40 6
Glock 21 .45 11
Glock 36 .45 1
(Note: This information does not reflect officers that did not attend the last firearms qualification shoot.)
These statistics indicate that out of the (80) listed officers who qualified during the last
qualification shoot:
• 46.25% are carrying Glock pistols.
• 15.00% are carrying the Department issued Model 5904.
• The most popular caliber carried is the .45 caliber, being carried by 38.75% of the
officers compared to 30.00% carrying the .40 caliber and 31.25% carrying the
9mm ammunition.

SAN DIEGO COUNTY LAW ENFORCEMENT AMMUNITION & ISSUED
PISTOL INFORMATION:
Sgt. William Strasen surveyed Police Departments within San Diego County to determine
what pistol they issue and what caliber. He also found that Chula Vista P.D. is the only
Department found out of those surveyed that mandates carrying of the issued Department
firearm. All of the other agencies responding allowed options for officers to carry pistols
purchased by the officers. However, all Departments surveyed required the officer's
optionally purchased pistol to be of the same caliber as the Department issued pistol. The
results of Sgt. Strasen's survey is:

(Although not surveyed, the California Highway Patrol, FBI, and the San Diego County
D.A.'s Office use the .40 caliber round. NYPD and U.S. Customs issue Glock pistols.)

FBI BALLISTICS STUDY:
On December 2, 2002, Charles Willkomm forwarded his range staff report concerning
the current FBI Ballistics study. The study (in it's most basic form) suggests that
ammunition selection should be based on the size of the projectile (including weight
retention) and the penetration capability of the round.
It is recommended that a bullet consistently penetrate 12 inches or more and have
retained nearly all its weight after striking the object. It also dictates that the larger the
bullet, the more damage it will' inflict and therefore be more likely to cause quick
incapacitation. All three of the currently issued NCPD pistol rounds meet the minimum
recommendations suggested by the FBI for penetration and weight retention.
The Range Staff felt that either a .40 or .45 caliber pistol would be acceptable for
replacement of the 9mm. Both are large, heavy bullets. The .40 caliber issued by NCPD
has a much better penetration capability than. the .45 caliber, but .is known to be less
controllable due to a sharper recoil. The .45 caliber produces a "softer" recoil due to the
round being slower.
Since all Range Staff felt that a Giock pistol would be preferable, we invited a Giock
representative to NCPD to have several non -range staff officers test fire a variety of
pistols and calibers. This "survey" would act as a basis to determine the controllability of
the .40 caliber vs. .45 caliber in Giock pistols.
Twenty -Four non -Range Staff Officers shot various Giock pistols. Seventeen survey
forms were turned in for the Giock Model 35 and Twenty -One survey forms for the
Model 21. Several Range Staff Officers were present during the shoot to make inquires
of officers concerning controllability and handling. The written and verbal "survey"
indicated the Giock 35 (a .40 caliber pistol) with its longer barrel length had about the
same recoil as the Giock 21 (.45 caliber pistol). The "survey" also concluded that the
grip size of the Giock 35 was smaller than the Giock 21. The Giock 35 would therefore
accommodate more officers' hand sizes than the larger gripped Giock 21.
Based on the FBI Ballistics study and the in-house Giock "survey" shoot, I recommend
that if the Department replaces the Smith & Wesson 5904, we change to the .40 caliber
Giock 35 pistol, as the primary issued handgun for the National City Police Department
uniformed officer use.
However, the Giock 35 is a long pistol. The slide length is 8.15 inches long. This would
make it difficult to carry concealed. I therefore recommend the Department purchase the
Giock 27 for plain -clothes officers.
The Giock 27 is essentially a compact version of the Giock 35 and other .40 caliber
Giock pistols. Magazines from the Giock 35 can be used in the Giock 27, yet with the
standard Giock 27 magazine, this pistol is very concealable and can be carried in an ankle
holster comfortably. Plain -clothed officers would carry the Giock 27 during the time
8
they are assigned a primary assignment involving plain -clothes work. When in a
uniformed assignment, the Glock 35 would be carried. Since the magazines for the
Giock 35 fit the Giock 27, there would be no need to purchase extra Giock 27 magazines.
TACOMA WASHINGTON PONCE DEPARTMENT PISTOL STUDY:
Lieutenant Ray Allen obtained information from Sergeant Jenkins, Tacoma Washington
Police Department, concerning extensive testing they conducted to determine what pistol
Tacoma P.D would issue.
Although we are waiting for the written report from Tacoma P.D., Lt. Allen discussed
their study and results by telephone. (Lt. Allen has had to formally request the study
materials in writing. This has caused a significant delay in receiving the information.)
Tacoma Police Department studied various pistols. In particular they looked at the
ergonomics of the pistol grips and how well officers liked shooting the various pistols..
The result of their study led them to approve a choice between the Kimber .45 caliber or
Glock 22 or 23 pistols (both Glocks are .40 caliber).
The Kimber .45 caliber is based on the `Browning" automatic design. It is a cocked and
locked .45 caliber pistol. The range staff does not feel this type of pistol would be a wise
selection for a Department issued pistol. (The Kimber .45 also costs about $1,000.00 per
pistol).
The Glock 22 and 23 have the same grip size as the Glock 35. They are essentially the
same gun as the Glock 35, with shorter barrels. The Glock 35 uses the Glock 22 frame,
but has a longer barrel, making the recoil less aggressive.
10
PISTOL PRICES:
Sergeant Murray obtained prices for various pistols from two local firearms dealers.
Neither of these dealers is a Law Enforcement dealer for Giock pistols; therefore no
information was obtained from these dealers on Glock prices. However, the Giock
representative (Paul Pechner) did informally advise Range Staff that the expected cost per
firearm would be around $500.00. Giock also offers a buy back program, where our
Smith & Wesson pistols could be sold back to Giock.

NCPD TEST FIRE; GLOCK PISTOLS;,
On November 21, 2002, Paul Pechner presented several (Mock pistols at NCPD for
testing. Officers were allowed to shoot as many rounds as they wished through a variety
of models and calibers. Officers were asked to evaluate each firearm they test fired.
Ninety evaluations forms were subsequently turned in to Range Staff Sgt. John Murray
collected and evaluated the officer's input. Sgt Murray found, of the full sized Glock
pistols fired, most officers preferred either the Model 21 (.45 caliber) or the Model 35
(.40 caliber).
The Mode135 (developed in 1997) was found to be a surprise during the test firing. The
Model 35 has nearly the same recoil as the Model 21, yet was being shot more accurately
by officers. It had been expected that the Model 21 would be more accurate due to
reduced recoil involving the .45 caliber round. However the Model 35 has a longer barrel
and therefore a longer sight radius and better balance. This results in better accuracy in
the same way that a six-inch revolver is more accurate than a four -inch revolver. The
Model 35 also has a smaller grip size and would accommodate the majority of the
officers on the Department. The large grip size of the Model 21 could cause problems
with a number of officers that have smaller hands.

OPINIONS AND CONCLUSIONS:
There is no doubt that the replacement of the Department issued Smith & Wesson pistols
is a costly suggestion. My reason for making this proposal is primarily citizen and officer
safety. Continued use of firearms that have passed the expected service life is a liability
to the citizens, officers and the City.
There will be persons that will disagree with the make and model selection. In fact, many
Range Officers would prefer to carry other designs, including Heckler & Koch and
various "Browning" design firearms. However, all Range Staff Officers agreed that the
purchase of a replacement pistol should be based on what is best for the Department and
not the individual. Yet individual desires must be taken into account or morale may be
severely affected.
By studying the FBI Ballistic information, taking into account the Tacoma Washington
P.D. study, the San Diego County Community Standards reflected by the survey of San
Diego County Law Enforcement Agencies, obtaining input from the Range Staff and
Officers throughout the Department, I feel the best selection of pistol for the National
City Police Department uniformed service is the Glock 35. For plain clothed officers I
recommend the Glock 27 for it's conceal ability.
13
OPERATING PgOC DURE SUGGESTIONS:
Should the Department replace the Smith & Wesson Model 5904 it is my
recommendation that the Department Operating Procedure be changed.
The National City. Police Department has always allowed officers to optionally purchase
their own weapon and carry it. I agree with this for the following reason:
• No single pistol will satisfy every shooter's grip or desire.
• This is the Community Standard in San Diego County.
I disagree with this procedure for the following reasons:
• Having all officers carry magazines that can be used by other officers in an
emergency is a legitimate officer safety consideration.
• Having officers' carry and train with firearms of the same caliber makes it easier
to purchase ammunition.
• Having officers carry pistols with interchangeable parts allows for quicker repair
should a gun break.
• Having all officers carry the same pistol type, allows issuing a replacement pistol
the officer is already familiar with, if needed.
• Having all officers carry the same pistol type reduces training time.
Currently, most officers carry their own pistol. Officers have invested a lot of their own
money into their firearms. I believe the Police Department needs to move toward
limiting training ammunition purchase problems associated with officers carrying such a
variety of firearms.
The range staff agrees the Department needs to move away from having so many
different firearms carried by officers, while acknowledging the feelings many have
toward carrying firearms they select themselves. I believe a compromise is needed. My
suggestion to changing the Operating Procedure is the following:
I suggest that with the purchase of Glock pistols, officers that were hired prior to
the date of purchase be allowed to select an optional firearm, from the current
listed firearms, at their own cost, to carry as their primary service pistol. Officers
hired after the date of purchase must carry the Department issued pistol as their
primary service pistol.
Furthermore, officers hired before the purchase should no longer be allowed to
switch from one optional primary service pistol to another. The selection of an
optional firearm should be done once and only once. Thereafter, officers carrying
optional weapons will either carry their "one time designated optional firearm" or
the Department issued firearm. This will allow those officers hired prior to the
purchase to keep the firearm of their choice but provide a long-term solution to
the problems associated with the current Operating Procedure.
14
Those officers that carry any optional firearm under this recommendation would
be allowed to return to the use of their own pistol if it were impounded as
evidence or need service. During the time the officer did not have his/her own
pistol they would carry a Department issued pistol.
I recommend no change in the Operating Procedure that applies to off duty or back-up
firearms.

PURCHASE RECOMMENDATION:
Ronni Zengota has obtained quotes from two different suppliers for Glock Pistols (EEE
and LC Action Police Equipment). Ms. Zengota is waiting for a third quote. LC Action
Police Supply's quote is based on the trade-in of (90) S&W Model 5904s w/three
magazines each. It therefore offers a substantial savings. I would therefore recommend
serious consideration of trade-in. Based on LC Action Pistols quote it is possible to trade
in our 5904s and equip all NCPD Officers with Glock pistols, holsters, magazine pouches
and magazines for $52,796.20. This compares to around $77,000.00 without trade-in.
I would also recommend that officers be given an option of uniformed holster. The
availability of uniformed holsters for the Glock 35 is limited. Safariland offers three
holsters for the Glock 35. They offer a Level I, Level II and Level III holster. I do not
recommend a Level I holster for uniformed use. The bids obtained are based on the SSIII
Level III holster. Not all officers like this high-level retention holster. The Level II
holster offered by Safariland is the model 6280 or 6285. Both of these holsters have the
SLS (Self Locking System) with the rotating hood design (This is what CVPD issues).
My personal experience with the SLS system indicates that people with short thumbs
may not be able to push the rotating hood clear of the sights, thus the pistol will not come
out of the holster without moving your hand from the grip to move the hood completely
forward.
The bids were based on the Safariland SSIII holster. If we were to consider options of
holsters we would need to find out exactly how many of each we would be purchasing
before moving forward. This has not been done, since a decision by Staff to replace the
Smith & Wesson Model 5904 has not yet been made.

Subject: 4TH STREET AND J AVENUE CONDOS
This memo is in response to your question concerning utilities undergrounding
for the proposed condo conversion located at 4th and J Avenue.
The requirement to underground all utilities comes from Chapter 17.07.032,
Paragraph G of the subdivision ordinance, which states "all new utility distribution
facilities within the boundaries of the subdivision and within the half street
abutting any new subdivisions shall be placed underground".
I also called Carmen at SDG&E to obtain an estimate for the conversion of
overhead lines to underground and was told that the estimated cost would be
approximately $100,000.

BACKGROUND REPORT
The 1.5 acre, L-shaped project site is located on the west side of J Avenue between 3rd and 4th Streets in the
Multi -Family Residential Limited -Planned Development (RM-2-PD) Zone. It fronts mainly on J Avenue;
however, it also fronts on both 3rd and 4th Street.
The property is developed with the Villa Real apartment complex, which has seven buildings with a total
of 97 units. One of the seven buildings is a single -story structure that has a three bedroom one bath living
unit, a leasing office and a community laundry room in it; this building fronts on 4th Street. The other six
two-story buildings, which were built in 1963, all front on J Avenue. There is also a 94 space surface
parking lot at the north end of the site and a pool near the south end adjacent the single -story building. The
attached Tentative Subdivision Map (Exhibit A -revised) clearly shows the layout of the property. The
units generally face onto 30-foot wide courts or to the parking lot.
The two-story buildings have wood and stucco exteriors with some brick veneer at the foundation levels.
They have gable roofs, which were last re -done in 2000 according to the applicant. As shown in the
attached site photographs provided by the applicant, all units are directly accessible from outside the
buildings via walkways.
There is only one unit type, with the exception of the previously noted three -bedroom unit in the single -
story building, in the development. Each unit is approximately 407 square feet with one bedroom and one -
bath. None of them have private balconies or patios.
The previously mentioned pool is the only common useable recreation area on -site; the pool area is roughly
2,900 square feet in size. The setbacks, ten feet on J Avenue and about four feet on 4t Street, as well as the
courts are landscaped. Landscaping consists mainly of grass with low growing shrubs at the foundations of
some of the buildings and a number of palm trees spread throughout the property. The landscaping at the
perimeter of the property and within the main courts is well maintained; however, it is in poorer condition
in some of the smaller interior courts (see Exhibit C).
Overall the property is in fair to good condition as noted in the Property Condition Assessment prepared for
the project. The report specifically notes that there are no significant defects, and estimates the remaining
economic life to be at least 35 years.
Nearby uses consist mainly of single-family houses, especially to the north and to the east across J Avenue.
There are also some apartments to the south across 4th Street, and adjacent to the west of the property, in the
General Commercial Zone, are various retail businesses.
The applicant originally proposed to covert the 97 existing apartment units in 97 condominium units for
individual sale. As condominiums, the units will be the same size and have the same floor plan as they
do as apartments.
The applicant proposes to make a number of repairs/improvements to the exterior of the buildings and
common areas. All of the buildings will be freshly painted, the exterior safety railings will be replaced
with railing that meets current Building Code requirements, and the entry doors to each unit will be
replaced with a wider door (36 inches wide). Additionally, a new fence and gates will be put up around
the property, and the existing trash enclosures will be rebuilt. The parking lot will be patched, re -sealed
and re -striped, and the pool will be re -plastered and fitted with a new pump and filter system. Finally,
the existing grass will be replaced with new sod, and some more palm trees will be planted.
The interior of each of the units will also be renovated. Each unit will be completely repainted. New
carpet, tile and linoleum flooring will be put in along with new maple cabinets with cultured marble
countertops in the bathroom and maple cabinets with formica tops in the kitchen. New appliances, lighting
and interior doors will also be included as part of the renovation. The attached project description provides
additional detail on the proposed renovation. Finally, the walls and floors of each unit will be augmented
to have a one -hour fire rating, as required by the Fire Department, and the windows in each bedroom will
be replaced with one with a lower sill height.
The above noted improvements and sale of the individual condominiums will be phased. All of the
exterior and common area improvements will be done concurrent with the renovation of the first of the
seven buildings. Once the renovations of the first building and common areas are about finished (the
applicant estimates that the renovations of each building will take approximately five weeks) work on the
second building will begin, and the units in the first building will be sold. This process will continue until
all units have been sold. Staff has inquired as to the projected sales price of the units; the applicant has
indicated that they cannot accurately predict the sales prices because of the quick rate of change in today's
market, but they anticipate the units will sell for between $135,000 and $150,000.
In order to pursue the conversion of the Villa Real apartments to condominiums the applicant has requested
approval of a Tentative Subdivision Map and a Conditional Use Permit as required by City ordinance.
There are a number of General Plan policies that are relevant to the conversion of apartments to
condominiums. The proposal obviously increases the number of home ownership opportunities, consistent
with General Plan policy. It is possible in some instances that the conversion of apartments to
condominium units might result in the loss of low-income housing. In this case, lower cost rental housing
will be replaced with lower cost ownership opportunities. It is important to note that, according to records
maintained by the Community Development Commission (CDC), there are only four Section 8 renters
currently residing in the complex, and the applicant has indicated the average rent is between $650 and
$750.
General Plan policies also encourage high quality development and unit sizes that exceed the minimum
requirements in the Land Use Code. Given that the buildings are existing, the options available to increase
the overall quality of the development are limited. The applicant proposes to make several changes, such
as new safety railing, wider entry doors, and renovation of the pool area that are not required by Code.
Increasing the size of the units is one way to increase the quality and livability of the development, and
would be consistent with City policy encouraging larger units because of the large family sizes in the City.
However, the applicant has indicated to staff and the Planning Commission that they are not proposing to
combine units, since they believe there is a strong market for one -bedroom units. Also, the benefit of
larger units must be weighed against the total number of home ownership opportunities that will be created.
Finally, Building and Safety Department staff has indicated that given the type and year of construction it
would not be too difficult to combine the units.
Since it is impractical for most proposals to convert apartments into condominiums to meet current Land
Use Code requirements for new condominiums, the General Plan and Land Use Code do not require it.
However, it is useful to compare the requirements for new condominiums and for new one -bedroom
apartments to what will be provided to allow for a full analysis. The table below summarizes some Code
requirements for new condominiums and one -bedroom apartments and what will be provided.

Given the small unit sizes and lack of private and common open space, staff suggested that the applicant
not only consider combining existing units to create larger units, but that they consider converting the
existing single-family house, which is partially used as a leasing office, into a common recreation room.
The applicant originally indicated that they intended to convert the single-family house into a
condominium unit rather than improve it for common recreational purposes; however, at the Planning
', Commission meeting the applicant agreed to convert it into a common recreation building. Finally, it is
important to note that the current density of the development is approximately 63 units/acre, where the
Land Use Code allows a maximum density of 22.9 units per acre for all new multi -family development.
Again, combining units would reduce the overall density of the project and increase the ratio of parking
spaces to units.
In order to satisfy the application requirements for the Conditional Use Permit to convert apartments, the
applicant had a Property Condition Assessment (PCA) report prepared. It included an assessment of all
structural and mechanical systems, as well as a sound attenuation study and pest report. The sound
attenuation report found that the unit should have a sound transmission classification of approximately 50
or more, which would meet the current Building Code requirements. As stated before, the PCA report
found that generally the property is in fair to good condition without significant defects. It does however,
contain recommended short-term and intermediate term repairs, repairs that should be made in the next five
years. The identified repairs, which are fully detailed in the attached report, include re -sealing the pool
deck, painting the buildings, and replacement of the heating system in each unit. A condition
recommending that all of the short-term and intermediate term repairs identified in the report be completed
prior to sale of any unit has been included. Finally, the pest report identified some dry rot and drywood
termite infestations. However, there were no structural defects identified, and remedies to the existing
conditions were identified in the report. A condition requiring that the recommendations of the pest report
be implemented prior to sale of the units has been included.
Typically the City would require a performance bond to put up by the developer to ensure that the proposed
and required improvements be made. However, the applicant has suggested an alternative approach, a Lien
Contract and Agreement not to Convey, to ensuring that the proposed and required improvements be made
prior to the sale of all of the units. According to the City Attorney's Office, the document that they have
suggested should generally guarantee the completion of all of improvements; however, it does not afford as
much protection as a performance bond. A condition requiring review and approval of the Lien Contract
and Agreement not to Convey by the City Attorney has been included with the recommended conditions of
approval. Also, conditions recommended by the Fire and Engineering Departments have also been
attached.
The Planning Commission held a public hearing on this item at their April 5, 2004 meeting. Although
there was no testimony from the public, the Commissioners discussed several elements of the project.
Commissioners, while noting that the proposal would definitely increase the number of home ownership
opportunities, raised concerns over the level of market demand for small one bedroom units. They
considered the possibility of combining some of the units to create larger units, and added a condition that
will allow the Home Owners Association Board of Directors to impose restrictions on the number of units
that could be rented out. Commissioners also delved into the extent of the proposed exterior and interior
renovations, and added conditions of approval requiring the single -story structure to be a common
recreation room and requiring the laundry rooms be fitted with new machines. They inquired about the
information sent to the current tenants and discussed whether likely affordability of the units. Finally, the
Commission voted to recommend approval of the proposal finding it consistent with the goals and policies
of the General Plan, and with the proposed renovations a likely improvement to the area.

WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of National City, California,
considered said applications at a duly advertised public hearing held on April 5, 2004 at which
time the Planning Commission considered oral and documentary evidence; and,
WHEREAS, at said public hearing the Planning Commission considered the staff report
contained in Case File No. S-2003-1 and CUP-2003-8 which is maintained by the City and

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Planning Commission of the City of
National City, California, that the testimony and evidence introduced in the staff report and
public hearing for said tentative subdivision map and conditional use permit support the
following findings:
RECMMENDED FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL
OF THE TENTATIVE SUI I IVISIN MAP
1. The proposed map is consistent with the National City General Plan and applicable
speci tic plans. since the project will create 97 newhomeownership opportunities.
2. The site is physically suitable for the proposed type of development, since all
development is existing and will remain, and only the form of ownership will
change.
3. The site is physically suitable for the proposed density of development, since the
entire development is existing, and only theform of ownership will change.
4. The design of the subdivision or the proposed improvements are not likely to cause
substantial environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure fish or
wildlife or their habitat, since the site is fully developed and all existing
improvements will remain, and no expansion will take place.
5. The design of the subdivision and the proposed/required improvements are not
likely to cause serious public health problems, since all necessary public services
will be provided.
6. The design of the subdivision and the proposed/required improvements will not
conflict with easements, acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of
the property within the proposed subdivision, since no such easements are located
on the site.
7. The discharge of sewerage waste from the subdivision into the City of National City
sewer system will not result in violation of existing requirements prescribed by the
California Regional Quality Control Board pursuant to Division 7 (commencing
with Section 13000) of the Water Code, as specified by Government Code Section
66474.6.
8. The subdivision has been considered by the Planning Commission with regard to its
effect on the housing needs of the region, and these needs are balanced by the public
service needs of the residents and available fiscal and environmental resources.
9. The design of the subdivision provides, to the extent feasible, for future passive and
natural heating and cooling opportunities in the subdivision, based on consideration
of local climate, topography, property configuration and other design and
improvement requirements without requiring reduction in allowable density or lot
coverage.
RECOMMENDE!C FININGS FOAPPROVAL. OF
THE CON ITIONAL. USE PERMIT
That the site for the proposed use is adequate in size and shape, since the site is fully
developed and since all existing improvements will remain.
2. That the site has sufficient access to streets and highways that are adequate in width
and pavement type to carry the volume and type of traffic generated by the proposed
use, since the project, which consists solely of a change of ownership and repair and
renovation of existing improvements, will not generate additional traffic.
3. That the proposed use will not have an adverse effect upon adjacent or abutting
properties, since the multi -family development already exists and only the form of
ownership will change. Conditions requiring the new owners to properly maintain
the property are included with the approval.
4. That the proposed use is deemed essential and desirable to the public convenience
and welfare, since the creation of 96 new homeownership opportunities available to
first time homebuyers will allow for •mobility in the housing market, and since the
increased rate of ownership may translate into an improved property appearance.
RECOMMENDED FINDINGS FOR CONDOMINIUM CONVERSIONS
The proposal is consistent with housing element goals and objectives, since the
conversion of the existing apartment complexes will create 96 additional opportunities
for homeownership, which will likely be available to persons with a moderate or lower
income level.
2. Plans and reports submitted by the applicant, along with conditions of approval, show
that necessary upgrading will be completed prior to sale of any unit, since all common
area improvements will be completed during the first phase of development and each
unit will be renovated before it is sold as will be specified in a Lien Contract and
Agreement not to Convey.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that based on the findings hereinbefore stated, the
Planning Commission hereby recommends approval of said tentative subdivision map and
conditional use permit for the conversion of 97 apartments to condominiums at 915 E. 4th Street
subject to the following conditions:
1. This Tentative Map and Conditional Use Permit authorize the conversion of 97
apartment units to condominiums. Except as required by conditions of approval, all
plans submitted for permits associated with the project shall conform with Exhibits
A -revised, B, and C case file no. S-2003-1/CUP-2003-8, dated 2/24/2004,
3/19/2004, and 3/15/2004 respectively.
2. A detailed landscape and underground irrigation plan, including plant types,
methods of planting, etc. shall be submitted for review and approval by the Planning
Director. The landscape plan shall reflect the use of drought tolerant planting and
water conserving irrigation devices.
3. A trash .enclosure shall be provided in accordance with city standards. It shall have

This letter is in response to an Application for Conditional Use Permit and Tentative
Subdivision Map for the conversion of apartments to condominiums for the subject
property, within the Sweetwater Authority ("Authority") service area. There is a six-inch
main on the east side of "J" Avenue fronting the property. The Authority's records
indicate that there are three domestic water services to this property. Enclosed is a
copy of 1/4 SEC. 153 map, which shows the existing water facilities.
At this time, we cannot comment on the adequacy of the existing system to provide fire
protection for this project. As plans develop for structures, the Owner must submit a
letter to the Authority from the appropriate fire agency stating fire flow requirements.
Based on this requirement, this project may result in the need for new water
systems or substantial alteration to the existing water system. The Authority
recommends that your Agency work with ours to determine if the existing water facilities
are adequate to meet the added demands prior to issuing a building permit.
Please note that the Authority requires a 10-foot horizontal separation between sewer
and water laterals.
If the Owner pays the appropriate fees, provides the required fire flow information and
enters into an agreement with the Authority for water facility improvements, if required,
water service can be obtained at a pressure ranging from a maximum of 79 p.s.i. to a
minimum of 69 p.s.i.

1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
80375-8292 p.4
1.1 General Description
JCEP/Huang completed a property condition assessment (PCA) of a multi-
dwelling complex known as Villa Real located at 915 E. 4th Street, National City,
San Diego County, California 91950-1503 at the request of Joseph Scarlatti of
Westone Management Consultants. As part of the PCA, an on -site walk through
observations was made on March 7, 2003 with Joseph Scarlatti.
The subject property contains 96 one -bedroom and one -bathroom apartment units
scattered in 7 two-story garden type apartment buildings, and a one-story single
family house that contains 3 bedrooms with one bathroom and a leasing office.
Additionally, the subject dwelling complex also provides 96 surfaced parking
spaces, a laundry room, a swimming pool, and associated hardscape and
landscape. Construction drawings were not available for JCEP/Huang's review.
Reportedly, the subject property was developed in 1963 on a suburban lot in
National City, San Diego County, Califomia.
Due to its mild climate in the project area, and like many multi -dwelling
complexes in coastal San Diego County, air conditioning for cooling is not
provided for the subject apartments. Heating is supplied by gas -fired wall heaters.
Domestic hot water for the 96 apartments is provided by 13 centralized gas -fired
hot water heaters. The single family house and the laundry room also have one
devoted gas -fired hot water heater each. Gas main and individual gas meters are
hung on the exterior wall of the buildings, while the electric distribution panels
and individual electric meters are housed in the utility closets of the buildings.
Smoke detectors are available for the apaitiuents, and the public areas of the
buildings are fitted with fire extinguishers. Additionally, fire hydrants are located
along the city street sidewalks by the property as required by the current fire code.
1.2 General Physical Condition
The subject property appears adequately maintained and in overall good condi-
tion without significant defects noted. Original components of the buildings are
composed of durable materials and sturdy construction. It is JCEP/Huang's
opinion that the subject property is comparable to other similar properties of
similar age in this area and, subject to a continued program of sustained pre-
ventative maintenance, the remaining economic life of the subject apaitiiients
should exceed 35 years,

mended represent potentially unsafe conditions, material code violations, and

4.0 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION AND OBSERVATION
A. Buildings
1) Roofs
Description: The seven (7) apattwnent buildings and the single family
house are weatherproofed with a conventional pitched roofing system.
Design drawings of the Apartments were not available for our review.
It is likely that the roofing systems are over plywood roof sheathing
supported on wood frame composed of rafters, joists and studs.
The pitched roofing systems appear to be composed of asphalt
impregnated and Mineral surfaced roofing shingles over heavy felts
supported on plywood roof sheathing. Pitched roofmg is a proven
waterproofing product with a long and impressive performance record.
A well constructed system of the project type with proper maintenance
effort can easily last 20 to 25 years, provided that the felts are well
shielded from the ultra -violet rays from the sun.
Roofing cement, metal flashing and counterflashing, roof j acks, and
other waterproofing materials and devices are implemented at joints of
the roofs and penetration locations.
Observations/Comments: Management of the property advised that
the buildings were reroofed in year 2000. There are no roof leak
reports, and no signs of leakage were noted during JCEP/Huang's on -
site visit. The roofing systems appeared adequately maintained and in
good condition.
However, it was observed that all roofs are partially fitted with metal
gutters and downspouts. JCEP/Huang recommends that all roofs should
be fully covered by metal gutters and downspouts. This work should be
carried out before the next raining season.
No other repairs are recommended at this time.
2) Foundations
Description: Original plans and specifications were not provided for
JCEP/Huang's review. The apartment complex is likely to be founded
on cast -in -place reinforced concrete perimeter footings, column
footings, and interior grade beams with concrete slabs -on -grade.

observed to be in good condition. No signs of cracking, settling, or
distress were observed.
No repairs are recommended at this time.
3) Walls, Windows and Doors
Description: Exterior walls of the apartment buildings are observed to
be constructed of painted wood sidings and stucco. Typically, the
stucco is over lath and water-repellent building paper on plywood
backing supported on wood studs, and sidings are over building paper
and supported by wood studs too. Window and door openings are
likely to have been reinforced with additional wood members for stress
transferring continuity.
Apartment unit entry doors are of solid core fire -rated type with twist -
action door knob and dead bolt hardware. Entry doors to the single
family house and the Leasing office are of solid wood with small glass
panels. These doors have similar hardware as that of the apaitueent
entry doors. Interior doors are typically of hollow cored units.
Windows are of aluminum framed glass sliding units.
Observations/Comments: No structural distresses were noted on the
walls. The walls remain to be straight, in line and plumb.
Generally, exterior walls appeared adequately maintained and in good
to fair condition. However, watermarks were observed along the lower
portion of the exterior walls at several buildings. They appear to be
caused by irrigation. JCEP/Huang recommends that irrigation system
be thoroughly examined and make necessary repairs and adjustment.
Management of the property advised that building exteriors were
painted about 6 to 7 years. ago. It is recommended that the building
exteriors be painted within the next 4 years.
Windows and doors appeared adequately maintained and in good to
fair condition. However, it was estimated that about 30 window units
need to be replaced within the next two years.
4) Exterior Paint and Woodwork
Description: Woodwork is typically covered by painted stucco and
sidings. Exterior paint includes the stairs, stucco and wood trims,
railings along the 2nd floor corridor, trash enclosure and wood posts.
Jun 12 03 10:39a Cecilia Huang

which has 6 washers and 7 dryers, is equipped with a devoted gas -fired
hot water heater. So is the single family house. Apartment bathroom
fixtures consist of floor supported lavatories with wood cabinets, floor
mounted toilets and white fiberglass bathtubs with showers.
Observations/Comments; Plumbing system of the subject property
was observed in good condition, and appeared adequately maintained.
Management of the property advised that a total of 5 gas -fired hot
water heaters were replaced within the last 5 years. The other 10 units
are quite old, but functioning. It is recommended that these 10 hot
water heaters be replaced within the next 3 years.
Observed hot water heaters appeared properly strapped for seismic
safety, no repairs are recommended at this time.
6) Mechanical
Description: Due to the mild climate condition of the project area, no
air conditioning for cooling is considered needed, and none is provided.
Heating of each apartment is provided by individual wall heaters
powered by natural gas. Bathrooms and kitchens are equipped with
wall switches controlled exhaust fans. Exhausts are ducted through the
roof. Ventilation of the apailuients is by gravity and natural breeze.
Observations/Comments; Mechanical system of the subject property
appeared adequately maintained and in good operative condition.
Equipment capacities also appear adequate for the intended usages.
No repairs are recommended at this time.
Due to aging, it is estimated that 96 wall heaters need to be replaced
with energy efficient units within the next three (3) years.

Justification to Section 18.116.020
#1 `fh =t the site for the proposed use is adequate in size and shape
The site is 1.8 acres and has been developed to the building standards and the
building code of the day. The project consists of 97 rental units of which 96 are
one bedroom & one bathroom approximately 465 square feet and one unit of
approximately 1,200 square feet. There are 98 parking spaces. The project have
access to on -street parking on both Fourth Avenue and J Avenue.
#2 That the site has sufficient access to streets and highways that
are adequate in width and pavement type to carry the quantity
and quality of traffic generated by the proposed use
The site has pedestrian access from Fourth Avenue and J Avenue. The parking
is accessed from J Avenue through double wide security gates. The street are to
current standards and the change in use from apartments to condominiums will
not increase traffic. Access to and from the project is by major arterial traffic
routes and are adequate to carry the existing traffic.
#3 That the proposed use will not have an adverse effect upon
adjacent or abutting properties
Given that the proposed change in use is from apartments to condominiums and
that no additional structures will be added to the project there will be no adverse
effect to the abutting properties. Condominium conversions have consistently
enhanced the neighborhood and should exist well with the residential areas to
the North and the East.
#4 That the proposed use is deemed essential and desirable to the
public conveniienc or welfare
The proposed conversion will provide 97 first-time home -buyer opportunities
which currently do not exist in the City of National city. Given the 'current rental
rates, most of the tenants will have the ability to purchase their units given
current interest rates and various first -time -buyer programs.

DEPARTMENT Police
Assembly Bill 3229, Chapter 134, Statutes of 1996, established the Citizen's Option for Public
Safety (COPS) program to provide local law enforcement supplemental funding to eligible
jurisdictions, as defined for public safety purposes. Under the State COPS program, the City of
National City was allocated $100,000 as its share for fiscal year 2003/2004. These funds must
be expended or encumbered by June 30, 2005, or be remitted to the State Controller for deposit
into the General Fund. hi the case of a city, the City Council is required to appropriate existing
and anticipated COPS moneys exclusively to fund front line municipal police services. COPS
funds shall be appropriated pursuant to written requests from the Chief of Police. The requests
must specify the front line law enforcement needs of the requesting entity including personnel,
equipment and programs. Pursuant to AB 3229, the City Council must hold a public hearing to
consider these requests. Funding will be determined by a majority of those Council members
present at the Council meeting within 60 days of receiving the request for funding. The City
Council must consider these written requests separate and apart from the proposed allocations
from the City General Fund. (Continued on page 2)

Services Fund.
Page 2
Explanation (Continued)
In prior years, the County Auditor & Controller transferred the funds to the cities without first
involving the Supplemental Law Enforcement Oversight Committee (SLEOC). As of last year,
the statute requires the SLEOC to certify receipt of an approved expenditure plan from the
governing board of that agency, in this case either the Board of Supervisors or the City Councils.
After the SLEOC approves the expenditure plan the funds will be transferred to the City.
Proposal
The National City Police Department and Acting Chief Pauu are therefore submitting a request
that the City Council appropriate FY 2003/2004 Supplemental Law Enforcement Services Fund
monies per the below requested propossis and request a resolution authorizing the expenditures.
This year the Police Department requests authorization to fund two projects that were identified
as front line needs within the Police Department that could not otherwise be funded.
The first project proposal is the replacement of the Department issued service pistol. In 2003 Lt.
Gary Clark prepared a detailed replacement study and staff report regarding the replacement of
the current service pistols. The report is attached for review. In 1987 the Department began to
transition from revolvers to semi -automatic pistols. The pistol purchased and issued to officers
was the 9mm Smith & Wesson Model 5904. The expected service life for these pistols is ten
years, which was surpassed in 1999. Our current inventory of pistols includes many that are no
longer serviceable. Lt. Clark's report concluded that the Glock 35 and Glock 27 pistols were the
best selection to replace our Smith & Wesson 5904 pistols. The current pistols are no longer
suitable for police use and they should be replaced as soon as possible before a catastrophic
failure of one of the pistols results in the injury or death to an officer or a citizen.
This is a large expenditure that would severely impact the general fund since it is not a budgeted
item, especially when considering the current budget crisis in California. By utilizing SLESF
funds we can meet this pressing safety equipment need without impacting already limited public
safety budgets while fulfilling the SLESF requirement to fund front line police services, which
include personnel, equipment and programs. The estimated cost to replace our current pistols
with the Glock 35 and Glock 27 pistols including all accessories and web gear is $58,500. This
price is also based on a $17,550 credit for trading in 90 of the S&W 5904 pistols at a rate of
$195.00 each.
The second project proposal is the installation and purchase of eight new workstations in the
patrol sergeant workspace. The sergeant's office currently consists of four decks, four phones
and three computers. The desks only allow for one person to occupy them at a time, the
computers are aging and barely adequate, and storage space for files and equipment is at its limit.
Eight sergeants assigned to the patrol division share this workspace that, as currently designed, is
adequate for four. (Continued on page 3).
Council Agenda Statement
Resolution Authorizing Appropriation of FY 2003/2004 Supplemental Law Enforcement
Services Fund.
Page 3
The sergeants as a group identified their work area as inadequate for their needs and requested
that the office be updated to include eight separate workstations, each station with a desktop
computer and a phone. Sergeants are the backbone of the organization and run the 24hour front
line operations of the police department. Their workload and level of responsibilities is very
high and with the way their workspace currently functions they often must wait for other
sergeants to vacate the workspace to conduct business. After the sergeants made the request to
update their workspace, patrol staff committed to identifying a funding source to complete the
project.
As we were identifying needs of the department to allocate SLESF funds, and after clearly
identifying the need to replace the service pistols as the first priority, it became apparent that
updating the sergeant's workspace would fit the purposes of SLESF and cost the balance of the
SLESF funds. The police department staffviews updating the sergeant's office as a priority that
will allow our front line supervisors to provide excellent service to the citizens by modernizing
their workspace. Again, given the current status of the State budget crisis this type of project
would not be considered through the normal budget process and we see the use of SLESF monies
as an opportunity to provide an updated modern workspace to our supervisors that we would
otherwise not be in a position to provide. The estimated cost of updating the sergeant's
workspace with eight workstations, eight desktop computers, four additional phones, four
additional office chairs, two digital audio recorders and wireless network hardware is $41,500.
Listed on page four is the requested expenditure budget with account numbers. All amounts
include budget for tax and shipping charges and are rounded up for possible cost increases in the
purchasing process. See page four.

NATIONAL CITY POLICE DEPARTMENT
Staff Report
Project Plan For:
Replacement of the Department Issued Smith & Wesson Model 5904
January 12, 2003
Prepared By:
Lt. Gary K. Clark
BACKGROUND;
The currently issued Department Service Pistol is the Smith & Wesson Model 5904. The
Smith & Wesson Model 5904 is a 9mm semi -automatic pistol. These pistols were
purchased in 1987 when the Department transitioned from revolvers to semi -automatic
pistols. The Range Staff did not recommend the Smith & Wesson Model 5904. The
5904 has a finish that was known to corrode and adjustable sights, which are difficult to
maintain, and not needed for a Department issued firearm. The Range Staff bad
recommended a Smith & Wesson model with fixed sights in stainless steel or the Glock
17.
At the time of transition, the Department chose a 9mm pistol based on an FBI study that
suggested the 9mm round was superior. At the same time, nationwide, most police
departments adopted the 9mm as their standard caliber firearm. Unfortunately, within
one year of that 1987 FBI study, the FBI acknowledged it had erred and began transition
to .40 caliber pistols.
Many Departments (like NCPD) were unable to finance an immediate change to larger
caliber pistols such as a .40 or .45 caliber. The 9mm was not considered the best
available round for Law Enforcement, but was acceptable.
Since 1987, the FBI has conducted more extensive research into ammunition ballistics
and publishes the results every five years. The most current study was published in 1997.
The FBI no longer suggests what caliber or ammunition may be the best for Law
Enforcement use, it merely provides guidance in setting some minimum
recommendations.
The expected ten-year service life for the Department issued Smith & Wesson Model
5904 pistols has been surpassed. Our current inventory of pistols includes many that are
no longer serviceable. At the time we purchased the Smith & Wesson pistols, Smith &
Wesson had factory authorized service representatives throughout the country. Smith &
Wesson no longer provides service for their weapons except for repair at the factory or
sending officers to their factory gunsmith class. I do not recommend that officers be
trained to be gunsmiths for our currently owned, complicated pistols. This makes it a
costly and time consuming endeavor to repair weapons.
It is therefore recommended that the Department replace the worn out Smith & Wesson
pistols during the 2003/2004-budget year. In doing so, I recommend changing to a .40
Caliber Pistol.
t
NCPD RANGE STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
S:
The first step in this process was sending out a survey to all Range Staff officers. Once
the surveys were in, a meeting was scheduled. On November 6d', 2002, the Range Staff
met to consider specific recommendations. The Range Staff agreed upon the following
minimum specifications:
• The pistol magazines should have no less than ten rounds.
• The pistol should be easy to use and train with.
• The pistol should be easy to maintain by the officer.
• The pistol should have night sights.
• The pistol should have an incorporated accessory rail.
• The pistol material should be resistant to wear.
• The pistol should have an excellent warranty.
• The pistol should be capable of being serviced "in-house".
• The caliber should be either a .40 or .45 caliber.
• As much as possible, the pistol should have a grip size that will conform to the
majority of the officers on the Department.
• The pistol should be extremely reliable.
• The pistol should have a consistent trigger pull of a minimum 4.5 lbs, to a
maximum 5 5 lbs.
• The pistol should not be a "Browning" design.
• The manufacturer should have extensive experience in Law Enforcement pistols.
• The pistol should be reasonably priced.
After two hours of discussion, it was unanimously felt that there was only one firearms
manufacturer that could meet the minimum specifications agreed upon. Range Staff
recommended the purchase of a Glock pistol for replacement of the Smith & Wesson
Model 5904. Since the FBI Ballistics Report had not yet been received, the caliber was
not agreed upon at this meeting. However, all Range Staff felt that the selection of
another 9mm pistol would not be acceptable.
It was felt that a Glock pistol was the best choice for the following reasons:
• Reliability. (Glock extensively tested its pistols. Glock test fired over 700,000
rounds through a pistol and simply stopped testing, since further testing would be
senseless.)
• Reputation. (Several Armies throughout the world, including Austria and Norway,
as well as fifty percent of the United States Law Enforcement community are
currently using Glock pistols. In 1999 Glock manufactured its two -millionth
pistol.)
• Ease of use and training. (Glock's safety system eliminates the need to additional
training and the trigger pull is the same for every shot.)
• Ease of general maintenance. (Glock pistols have less moving parts than others
and are easy to break down and clean.)
4
• Ability to train all Range Staff to repair "in-house". " (Glock is the only
manufacturer that builds a pistol where parts are completely interchangeable,
without having to gunsmith replacement parts. The Annorer's course is a one -
day course that currently costs $85.00 per student. The course is routinely offered
locally. The number of tools needed to repair a Glock pistol is ONE. In contrast,
to qualify an officer as an Armorer for Smith & Wesson pistols the course is
several days at their factory and an extensive/expensive tool kit is required.)
• Ability to obtain replacement parts. (Our experience with Glock indicates about a
three-day wait for parts, in comparison to two to six weeks with other
manufacturers.)
• Glock's "government " warranty is 40,000 rounds (This is generally accepted to
be a guns barrel life. This would roughly equal a thirty plus year warranty at the
present ammunition use rate by our officers. Compared to most manufacturers
one-year warranty.)
• Glock pistols have the highest magazine capacity available, compared to similftr
caliber pistols.
• The finish on the Glock pistols is rated on the Rockwell scale one level below
diamonds. (Staff experience indicates it has the most durable finish experienced
on pistols to date. Including aftermarket finishes.)
It was determined that the caliber selection should be based on the following two
principles:
1. What caliber best meets the needs for defensive firepower, and;
2. What caliber is easiest to control by the average police officer, taking into
consideration the recoil and grip size?
5
NCPD SURVEY:
To get an idea of what firearms are popular among the rank and file officer for the
National City Police Department, I obtained information from the last qualification shoot
(Summer 2002). This determined what pistols NCPD officers are currently carrying. The
following is the result of that study:
Currently carrying:
Manufacturer Pistol Caliber
Number of Officers
Colt 1911 style .45 6
ICimber 1911 style .45 2
Para -Ordinance 1911 style .45 1
Springfield 1911 style .45 1
HK USP40 .40 2
HK USP45 .45 3
Sig Sauer P226 9mm 3
Sig Sauer P229 .40 2
Sig Sauer P220 .45 5
Berretta 92 9mm 3
Berretta 96 .40 2
Smith & Wesson 5904
9mm 12
Smith & Wesson 4506 .45 1
Glock 17 9mm 7
Glock 22 .40 12
Glock 23 .40 6
Glock 21 .45 11
Glock 36 .45 1
(Note: This information does not reflect officers that did not attend the last firearms qualification shoot.)
These statistics indicate that out of the (80) listed officers who qualified during the last
qualification shoot:
• 46.25% are carrying Glock pistols.
• 15.00% are carrying the Department issued Model 5904.
• The most popular caliber carried is the .45 caliber, being carried by 38.75% of the
officers compared to 30.00% carrying the .40 caliber and 31.25% carrying the
9nim ammunition.

SAN DIEGO COUNTY LAW ENFORCEMENT AMMUNITION& ISSUED
PISTOL INFORM 4TION:
Sgt. William Strasen surveyed Police Departments within San Diego County to determine
what pistol theyissue and what caliber. He also found that Chula Vista P.D. is the only
Department found out of those surveyed that mandates carrying of the issued Department
firearm. All of the other agencies responding allowed options for officers to carry pistols
purchased by the officers. However, all Departments surveyed required the officer's
optionally purchased pistol to be of the same caliber as the Department issuedpistol. The
results of Sgt. Strasen's survey is:

(Although not surveyed, the California Highway Patrol, FBI, and the San Diego County
D.A.'s Office use the .40 caliber round. NYBI) and U.S. Customs issue Glock pistols.)
FBI BALLISTICS STUDY:
On December 2, 2002, Charles Willkomm forwarded his range staff report concerning
the current FBI Ballistics study. The study (in it's most basic form) suggests that
ammunition selection should be based on the size of the projectile (including weight
retention) and the penetration capability of the round.
It is recommended that a bullet consistently penetrate 12 inches or more and have
retained nearly all its weight after striking the object. It also dictates that the larger the
bullet, the more damage it will inflict and therefore be more likely to cause quick
incapacitation. All three of the currently issued NCPD pistol rounds meet the minimum
recommendations suggested by the FBI for penetration and weight retention.
The Range Staff felt that either a .40 or .45 caliber pistol would be acceptable for
replacement of the 9mm. Both are large, heavy bullets. The .40 caliber issued by NCPD
has a much better penetration capability than the .45 caliber, but is known to be less
controllable due to a sharper recoil The .45 caliber produces a "softer" recoil due to the
round being slower.
Since all Range Staff felt that a Glock pistol would be preferable, we invited a Glock
representative to NCPD to have several non -range staff officers test fire a variety of
pistols and calibers. This "survey" would act as a basis to determine the controllability of
the .40 caliber vs. .45 caliber in Glock pistols.
Twenty -Four non -Range Staff Officers shot various Glock pistols. Seventeen survey
forms were turned in for the Glock Model 35 and Twenty -One survey forms for the
Model 21. Several Range Staff Officers were present during the shoot to make inquires
of officers concerning controllability and handling. The written and verbal "survey"
indicated the Glock 35 (a .40 caliber pistol) with its longer barrel length had about the
same recoil as the Glock 21 (.45 caliber pistol). The "survey" also concluded that the
grip size of the Glock 35 was smaller than the Glock 21. The Glock 35 would therefore
accommodate more officers' hand sizes than the larger gripped Glock 21.
Based on the FBI Ballistics study and the in-house Glock "survey" shoot, I recommend
that if the Department replaces the Smith & Wesson 5904, we change to the .40 caliber
Glock 35 pistol, as the primary issued handgun for the National City Police Department
uniformed officer use.
However, the Glock 35 is a long pistoL The slide length is 8.15 inches long. This would
make it difficult to carry concealed. I therefore recommend the Department purchase the
Glock 27 for plain -clothes officers.
The Glock 27 is essentially a compact version of the Glock 35 and other .40 caliber
Glock pistols. Magazines from the Glock 35 can be used in the Glock 27, yet with the
standard Glock 27 magazine, this pistol is very concealable and can be carried in an ankle
holster comfortably. Plain -clothed officers would carry the Glock 27 during the time
8
they are assigned a primary assignment involving plain -clothes work. When in a
uniformed assignment, the Glock 35 would be carried. Since the magazines for the
Glock 35 fit the Glock 27, there would be no need to purchase extra Glock 27 magazines.

TACOMA WASHINGTON POLICE DEPARTMENT PISTOL STUDY:
Lieutenant Ray Allen obtained information from Sergeant Jenkins, Tacoma Washington
Police Department, concerning extensive testing they conducted to determine what pistol
Tacoma P.D would issue.
Although we are waiting for the written report from Tacoma P.D., Lt. Allen discussed
their study and results by telephone. (Lt. Allen has had to formally request the study
materials in writing. This has caused a significant delay in receiving the information.)
Tacoma Police Department studied various pistols. In particular they looked at the
ergonomics of the pistol grips and how well officers liked shooting the various pistols..
The result of their study led them to approve a choice between the Kimber .45 caliber or
Glock 22 or 23 pistols (both Glocks are .40 caliber).
The Kimber .45 caliber is based on the "Browning" automatic design. It is a cocked and
locked .45 caliber pistol. The range staff does not feel this type of pistol would be a wise
selection for a Department issued pistol. (The Kimber .45 also costs about $1,000.00 per
pistol).
The Glock 22 and 23 have the same grip size as the Glock 35. They are essentially the
same gun as the Glock 35, with shorter barrels. The Glock 35 uses the Glock 22 frame,
but has a longer barrel, making the recoil less aggressive.

PISTOL PRICES;
Sergeant Murray obtained prices for various pistols from two local firearms dealers.
Neither of these dealers is a Law Enforcement dealer for Glock pistols; therefore no
information was obtained from these dealers on Glock prices. However, the Glock
representative (Paul Pechner) did informally advise Range Staff that the expected cost per
firearm would be around $500.00. Glock also offers a buy back program, where our
Smith & Wesson pistols could be sold back to Glock.
Sgt. Murray obtained the following prices:

NCPD TEST FIRE: CLOCK PISTOLS;
On November 21, 2002, Paul Pechner presented several Giock pistols at NCPD for
testing. Officers were allowed to shoot as many rounds as they wished through a variety
of models and calibers. Officers were asked to evaluate each firearm they test fired.
Ninety evaluations forms were subsequently turned in to Range Staff. Sgt. John Murray
collected and evaluated the officer's input. Sgt Murray found, of the full sized Giock
pistols fired, most officers preferred either the Model 21 (.45 caliber) or the Model 35
(.40 caliber).
The Model 35 (developed in 1997) was found to be a surprise during the test firing. The
Model 35 has nearly the same recoil as the Model 21, yet was being shot more accurately
by officers. It had been expected that the Model 21 would be more accurate due to
reduced recoil involving the .45 caliber round. However the Model 35 has a longer barrel
and therefore a longer sight radius and better balance. This results in better accuracy in
the same way that a six-inch revolver is more accurate than a four -inch revolver. The
Model 35 also has a smaller grip size and would accommodate the majority of the
officers on the Department. The large grip size of the Model 21 could cause problems
with a number of officers that have smaller hands.

OPINIONS AND CONCLUSIONS:
There is no doubt that the replacement of the Department issued Smith & Wesson pistols
is a costly suggestion. My reason for making this proposal is primarily citizen and officer
safety. Continued use of firearms that have passed the expected service life is a liability
to the citizens, officers and the City.
There will be persons that will disagree with the make and model selection. In fact, many
Range Officers would prefer to carry other designs, including Heckler & Koch and
various "Browning" design firearms. However, all Range Staff Officers agreed that the
purchase of a replacement pistol should be based on what is best for the Department and
not the individual. Yet individual desires must be taken into account or morale may be
severely affected.
By studying the FBI Ballistic information, taking into account the Tacoma Washington
P.D. study, the San Diego County Community Standards reflected by the survey of San
Diego County Law Enforcement Agencies, obtaining input from the Range Staff and
Officers throughout the Department, I feel the best selection of pistol for the National
City Police Department uniformed service is the Glock 35. For plain clothed officers I
recommend the Glock 27 for it's conceal ability.
13
OPE13ATINq PROCEDURE SUQGESTIONS:
Should the Department replace the Smith & Wesson Model 5904 it is my
recommendation that the Department Operating Procedure be changed.
The National City Police Department has always allowed officers to optionally purchase
their own weapon and carry it. I agree with this for the following reason:
• No single pistol will satisfy every shooter's grip or desire.
• This is the Community Standard in San Diego County.
I disagree with this procedure for the following reasons:
• Having all officers carry magazines that can be used by other officers in an
emergency is a legitimate officer safety consideration.
• Having officers' carry and train with firearms of the same caliber makes it easier
to purchase ammunition.
• Having officers carry pistols with interchangeable parts allows for quicker repair
should a gun break.
• Having all officers carry the same pistol type, allows issuing a replacement pistol
the officer is already familiar with, if needed.
• Having all offirers carry the same pistol type reduces training time.
Currently, most officers carry their own pistol. Officers have invested a lot of their own
money into their firearms. I believe the Police Department needs to move toward
limiting training ammunition purchase problems associated with officers carrying such a
variety of firearms.
The range staff agrees the Department needs to move away from having so many
different firearms carried by officers, while acknowledging the feelings many have
toward carrying firearms they select themselves. I believe a compromise is needed. My
suggestion to changing the Operating Procedure is the following:
I suggest that with the purchase of Glock pistols, officers that were hired prior to
the date of purchase be allowed to select an optional firearm, from the current
listed firearms, at their own cost, to carry as their primary service pistol. Officers
hired after the date of purchase must carry the Department issued pistol as their
primary service pistol.
Furthermore, officers hired before the purchase should no longer be allowed to
switch from one optional primary service pistol to another. The selection of an
optional firearm should be done once and only once. Thereafter, officers carrying
optional weapons will either carry their "one time designated optional firearm" or
the Department issued firearm. This will allow those officers hired prior to the
purchase to keep the firearm of their choice but provide a long-term solution to
the problems associated with the current Operating Procedure.
14
Those officers that carry any optional firearm under this recommendation would
be allowed to return to the use of their own pistol if it were impounded as
evidence or need service. During the time the officer did not have his/her own
pistol they would carry a Department issued pistol.
I recommend no change in the Operating Procedure that applies to off duty or back-up
firearms.

PURCHASE RECOMMENDATION:
Ronni Zengota has obtained quotes from two different suppliers for Glock Pistols (EEE
and LC Action Police Equipment). Ms. Zengota is waiting for a third quote. LC Action
Police Supply's quote is based on the trade-in of (90) S&W Model 5904s w/three
magazines each. It therefore offers a substantial savings. I would therefore recommend
serious consideration of trade-in. Based on LC Action Pistols quote it is possible to trade
in our 5904s and equip all NCPD Officers with Glock pistols, holsters, magazine pouches
and magazines for $52,796.20. This compares to around $77,000.00 without trade-in.
I would also recommend that officers be given an option of uniformed holster. The
availability of uniformed holsters for the Glock 35 is limited. Safariland offers three
holsters for the Glock 35. They offer a Level I, Level II and Level III holster. I do not
recommend a Level I holster for uniformed use. The bids obtained are based on the SSIII
Level III holster. Not all officers like this high-level retention holster. The Level II
holster offered by Safariland is the model 6280 or 6285. Both of these holsters have the
SLS (Self Locking System) with the rotating hood design (This is what CVPD issues).
My personal experience with the SLS system indicates that people with short thumbs
may not be able to push the rotating hood clear of the sights, thus the pistol will not come
out of the holster without moving your hand from the grip to move the hood completely
forward.
The bids were based on the Safariland SSIII holster. If we were to consider options of
holsters we would need to find out exactly how many of each we would be purchasing
before moving forward. This has not been done, since a decision by Staff to replace the
Smith & Wesson Model 5904 has not yet been made.

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF NATIONAL CITY
AMENDING TITLE 8 OF THE NATIONAL CITY MUNICIPAL CODE RELATING TO
ANIMALS BY AMENDING CHAPTERS 8.04 (ANIMAL CONTROL AND
IMPOUNDMENT), 8.08 (LARGE ANIMALS AND LARGE BIRDS AT LARGE OR

REPORT
The revisions proposed to Title 8 of the Municipal Code regarding animal control
regulations will enhance public health parameters by improving greater restrictions on
the keeping of fowl, and minimize the serious exposure to Newcastles disease, avian flu
and West Nile virus. The revisions also make administrative clarifications to Title 8, as
well as imposing some new restrictions.
Section 8.04.005 adds language regarding control of zoonotic conditions, such as
Newcastles disease, avian flu and West Nile virus.
'Section 8.04.015 amends the definitions of "animal", "owner" and "rooster".
Section 8.12.010 is amended to require persons owning, handling or possessing a dog
to be responsible for licensing compliance.
Section 8.16.005 is expanded to address the responsibility of owners and handlers for
compliance with dog care and control regulations.
Section 8.16.050 incorporates language from Title 12 regarding specific noise control
standards for barking dogs, making the process more objective.
Section 8.16.060 amends the prohibition against dogs in eating establishments to allow
dogs in outdoor seating or serving areas.
Section 8.16.070 is clarified to include language applicable to both "dangerous" as well
as "potentially vicious" dogs.
Section 8.16.100 makes substantive changes to fence height requirements for yards
containing dogs.
Section 8.16.120 adds substantive provisions applicable to the operation and licensing
of attack, guard, and sentry dog businesses.
Chapter 8.24 is revised in part to clarify that it applies only to commercial kennels and
catteries, and requires operating permits and compliance with zoning laws.
Section 8.32.010 is amended to prohibit pigs from being maintained in the City limits,
removing the previous exemption for pot-bellied pigs, and prohibits any roosters, in
order to remove vectors for avian zoonotic diseases.
Section 8.32.015 is amended to prohibit pigs of any size or breed; to limit the number of
small rabbits, hens ducks, geese or pigeons to a maximum combination of 20 on
property zoned for single-family residential use that is greater than 20,000 square feet in
area; and to prohibit roosters (even if surgically decrowed). The section contains
editorial revisions to clarify its provisions, and will also prohibit the keeping of chickens
in apartments.
Section 8.32.020 adds prohibitions on the feeding of feral cats to existing prohibitions on
the feeding of other feral or wild animals and birds, except within a coop or house.
Noise restrictions on noisy animals are amended to include reference to the specific
noise control standards of Title 12. It also limits persons acting as rescue shelters to
the number of animals allowed under section 8.32.015.
Section 8.32.040 makes the transition provisions affecting the new restrictions and
prohibitions applicable on and after July 1, 2004. (Previous exemptions pertaining to
restricted/prohibited species imposed by Ordinance 2171 enacted in calendar year
2000, are no longer applicable to exempt any classes of animals that are now being
regulated).

restricted to keeping only that number or combination of birds, animals or reptiles
allowed by this chapter 8.32 on the property where the operation is conducted,
notwithstanding the charitable nature of their enterprise.
8.32.040 Transition provisions. The prohibitions and restrictions enacted and
made applicable to the possession of animals and birds in Chapter 8.32 pursuant to
Ordinance ( ) shall not apply to any animal or bird currently and lawfully
owned by a resident of this city until July 1, 2004, after which date the animal shall be
immediately removed from the city or be surrendered to the Animal Control Officer for
disposition or placement when possible, or for destruction when not possible. After July
1, 2004, it is unlawful for any person to possess or maintain an animal or bird in
violation of Chapter 8.32. This transition provision shall not apply to any bird or animal
that was regulated or prohibited by the adoption of Ordinance 2171 in the year 2000,
the transition period for compliance having since expired, and for which any prohibition,
regulation or restriction is now fully applicable.

TO: Mayor and City Council DATE: April 22, 2004
FROM: City Attorney
SUBJECT: Amendment of Notice Requirement for Collection of Delinquent Sewer
Service Charges
Sections 5470-5474.10 of the California Health and Safety Code, and Chapter
14.04 of the National City Municipal Code, set forth procedures for the collection
of current and delinquent sewer charges on the tax roll. Before such charges may
be collected on the tax roll, the City Council must hold a public hearing to consider
the amount of charges to be collected on the tax roll, and to give persons to be
assessed the opportunity to appear and object to the charges.
State law provides that notice of the hearing shall be by publication. Additionally,
where charges are to be collected on the tax roll for the first time, written notice
shall be mailed to the persons to whom charges will be assessed.
Section 14.04.070 C. of the National City Municipal Code also sets forth notice
requirements for the public hearing where delinquent charges are to be collected on
the tax roll. In addition to the requirements for notice by publication and by mail.
Subsection C.2. provides for serviceof the notice in the same manner as a
summons is served in a civil court lawsuit.
Service of a summons is generally required to be by personal service. In the case
where hundreds of delinquent accounts are to be collected on the tax roll, the
requirement of personal service imposes an undue burden on the City. Because
service of notice in the same manner as service of a summons is not required by
state law, it is recommended that Section 14.04.070 C.2. of the Municipal Code
be amended to delete this requirement.

Dear Ms. Peredo,
ITEM #32
5/18/04
WRITTEN COMMUNICATIONS
The Mayor's office has forwarded to me your April 14, 2004 letter and related
documents regarding a National City Public Art Committee. You have obviously
devoted both time and effort to the Art Committee project.
Historically, the City Council has created numerous official Boards and
Commissions to address community needs. All official City Boards and
Commissions are created by acts of the legislative body (the City Council) through
an Ordinance, Resolution, or by Minute action and are subject to City Council
established requirements such as duties, application and appointment procedure,
residency requirements and terms office.
In order for the proposed Art Committee to be an official Committee of the City, it
must first be created and approved by the City Council. All Appointments to such
a committee would be by the Mayor subject to confirmation by the City Council.
Unless a committee is formally created by the City Council, liability and similar
issues may preclude use by such a committee of City facilities.
Peredo Letter
Page Two
I realize you are anxious to proceed with the creation of the National City Arts
Committee. The most logical step towards that worthwhile goal is for you to have
the City Council take the necessary steps to formally consider and approve the
committee.
Sincerely,
Michael R. Dalla, CMC
City Clerk
