ITEM TITLE Proposed 2005 Memorandum of Understanding between the City of National City and
the National City Firefighters' Association
PREPARED BY Ryan Hyland DEPARTMENT
Deputy Director 336-4370
EXPLANATION Beginning in early November City representatives and the National City Firefighters'
Association began discussions regarding the expiration of the current MOU. Both parties met and
conferred in good faith and reached agreement on the attached MOU which covers the period of
January 1, 2005 through December 31, 2005. The proposed MOU has been ratified through a vote of
the FFA members and is now before the City Council for final approval.
The proposed MOU balances the City's current budget constraints with the need to reward National
City Firefighters for the valuable public safety work they provide. The retention incentive illustrates an
innovative compensation approach that was required due to the structural budget deficit the City
currently operates within. The approach is fiscally prudent as it emphasizes one time expenditures
over ongoing expenditures.
Highlights of the proposed MOU:
• $2,100 per member one time Retention Incentive for all members with at least one year of service.
• "Class A" uniforms provided to all members to maintain a professional image and highlight the
City's pride in the National City Fire Department.
. Pilot Program for Constant Manning will begin on July 1, 2005. (Designed to keep a minimum of 4
fire personnel on fire trucks to ensure the safety of city residents and fire personnel)
• "Platoon Commander" job title changed to "Battalion Chief" to accurately reflect current duties and
match industry standards. (Discussions regarding the reclassification process including
corresponding salary and job duty changes will begin in January.)

A-200 (9;99)
Attachment to A-200 dated 1/18/05
This is a report on the attached Resolution, which endorses National City's application to the
California Department of Water Resources' Urban Streams Restoration Program, for a
$350,000 grant to help fund the Paradise Creek Educational Park.
The Urban Streams Restoration Program received $5 million under Proposition 40, the
"California Clean Water, Clean Air, Safe Neighborhood Park, and Coastal Protection Act" of
2002. The Department of Water Resources is soliciting applications for these funds from
communities with stream -restoration needs. Grant awards are limited to $1 million per project
and.have averaged approximately $350,000 and can fund projects as basic as a volunteer
workday to clean trash, or as complex as restoring a stream to its natural state.
All potential projects must have two sponsors: a local agency and a community group. For the
purpose of this grant, National City would be the sponsoring local agency, and Paradise Creek
would be the co-sponsor.
According to the grant application, the project must have "flood management or erosion control
as a primary objective." The project must also "maintain or enhance the environmental
characteristics of a stream or restore a stream to a more naturally functioning ecosystem," and
"should also promote public awareness and local stewardship of streams by including the
community in planning, implementing, monitoring or maintaining the steam restoration project."
The plans for Paradise Creek Educational Park meet these criteria.
Projects selected for funding will be announced by late May 2005. Selected projects should be
completed by May 2007..
Local Contribution:
The grant application also states that, although no specific amount of local matching funds is
required to receive a grant, National City must contribute something to the project. The
contribution maybe a financial match of the grant, an in -kind contribution, or a combination of
both. This contribution typically covers at least 20% of the total project costs. If National City
were to receive the full $350,000 in grant funds, a $70,000 match would be required.
Examples of the permitted types of contributions include:
• Labor
• Materials
• Expertise for activities such as planning, design, permitting, implementation, monitoring,
follow-up work, or project interpretation
• Heavy Equipment
• Rights of Way, Easements
• Money
The City of National City and the County of San Diego has each already allocated $25000 to
the Paradise Creek Educational Project, for a total of $50,000 that could be applied toward the
required match. The remaining match requirement could come in the form of in -kind
contributions that would be identified should the grant be funded.
Staff Recommendation:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the Resolution permitting National City to apply
for grant funds under the Urban Streams Restoration Program, and that the City Manager be
authorized to sign all required documentation.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of
National City, California, that it hereby approves tentative subdivision map and
conditional use permit for the conversion of 72 apartment units to condominiums at 305
East 26th Street and 2420 D Avenue, based on the findings:
RECOMMENDED FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL
OF THE TENTATIVE SUBDIVISION MAP
1. The proposed map is consistent with the National City General Plan and applicable
specific plans, since the project will create 72 new homeownership 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 all
development is existing and will remain, and only the form 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.
Resolution No. 2005 — 5
January 18, 2005
Page Three
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.
ADDITIONAL RECOMMENDED FINDINGS FOR
CONDOMINIUM CONVERSIONS
1 The proposal is consistent with housing element goals and objectives, since the
conversion of the existing apartment complex will create 72 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.
RECOMMENDED FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL OF
THE CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
1. That the site for the proposed use is adequate in size and shape, since the site is
fully developed and 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 no additional traffic will be generated, since the project
consists solely of a change of ownership and repair and renovation of existing
improvements.
3. That the proposed use will not have an adverse effect upon adjacent or abutting
properties, since the existing multi -family development already exists and only the
form of ownership is changing. Conditions requiring the new owners to maintain
the property have been included with the approval.
4. That the proposed use is deemed essential and desirable to the public convenience
and welfare, since the creation of 72 new homeownership opportunities that should
be attractive to first time homebuyers will allow for mobility in the housing market,
and since the increased rate of homeownership may translate into an improved
property appearance.

Avenue between 21st and 22nd Streets, based on the findings:
Resolution No. 2005 — 6
January 18, 2005
Page Two
RECOMMENDED FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL
OF THE TENTATIVE SUBDIVISION MAP
1 The proposed map is consistent with the National City General Plan and applicable
specific plans, since the General Plan encourages mixed -use infill of vacant
commercially zoned properties, the creation of new homeownership opportunities,
the beautification of older commercial areas, and higher density residential
development along major commercial thoroughfares. Also, there are no specific
plans governing use of the site.
2. The site is physically suitable for the proposed type of development, since the
property is on a major arterial within an established commercial district with some
existing mixed -use developments, and since it is adjacent to several large, higher
density apartment complexes.
3. The site is physically suitable for the proposed density of development, since the
proposal includes good-sized units with appropriate urban amenities and sufficient
parking for a mixed -use development.
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 has been developed previously and is located
in an urban environment with no native vegetation or bodies of water.
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.
Resolution No. 2005 — 6
January 18, 2005
Page Three
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.
RECOMMENDED FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL
OF THE CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
That the site for the proposed use is adequate in size and shape, since adequately
sized units, and open space will be provided along with sufficient off-street parking
for a mixed -use development with several large apartment complexes in the very
near vicinity.
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 approximately 650 Average Daily Trips (ADT) generated
by the use, of which not more than 60 ADT will be during the aftemoon peak traffic
hours, can be accommodated by Highland Avenue, a major arterial with a current
volume of 17,000 ADT and a capacity of 25,000 ADT. Also, the project's
immediate proximity to a large customer base will likely result in an elevated
percentage of pedestrian trips.
3. That the proposed use will not have an adverse effect upon adjacent or abutting
properties, since the proposal is consistent with the development type (both mixed -
use and high density multi -family) in the immediate area, and since the project
traffic can be accommodated on nearby roads. Also, the proposed parking (both
off-street and adjacent street parking) is typical of mixed -use development in
commercial, urban corridors.
4. That the proposed use is deemed essential and desirable to the public convenience
and welfare, since it will enhance the appearance of the partially developed site,
while placing new commercial facilities in close proximity to a large customer base,
and since it will create 32 new home ownership opportunities.
RECOMMENDED FINDING FOR APPROVAL OF
THE REQUESTED EXCEPTION
Granting of the exceptions is in accordance with the intent and purposes
of this Title, and is consistent with the General Plan and with all specific plans or other
plans of the City, since the General Plan encourages the creation of home ownership
opportunities, mixed -use infill and high density residential development along major
Resolution No. 2005 — 6
January 18, 2005
Page Four
commercial thoroughfares, which the requested exceptions facilitate, and since the
functional design of the proposed subdivision is compatible with adjacent and nearby
development consistent with the intent of this Title.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that based on the findings hereinbefore
stated, said tentative subdivision map and conditional use permit for a four-story mixed
use building with 13,000 square feet of commercial space and 32 residential
condominium units on the west side of Highland Avenue between 21st and 22nd Streets

incorporated into the project design.
4. The parking stall dimensions of the tuck under parking stalls at the rear of the
property shall conform to all Land Use Code requirements, and they shall have.a
minimum of 24 feet of backup space. The above referenced parking facility
dimension shall be achieved without reduction of the set back from Highland
Avenue shown in Exhibit "A", Case File No. S-2004-14/CUP-2004-23, dated
October 26, 2004.
5. 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.

Situation Analysis
National City is the second oldest city in San Diego County. Although the City is
undergoing a myriad of revitalization projects, many surrounding communities maintain
a negative perception of the City due to its long history of crime and miles of run down
neighborhoods. In a recent poll conducted by Di Zinno Thompson, more than half of
those surveyed named National City Mile of Cars as the first thing they thought of when
"The City of National City was mentioned. However, of those more than half had a
negative perception of the City; calling it crime ridden, gang territory and a general eye
sore. This widespread negative opinion not only affects the Mile of Cars, it affects the
community, citizens and businesses as a whole.
The Community Development Commission (CDC) has done a tremendous job of creating
programs to attract new business and improve the quality of life in the City. Although
the CDC is gaining traction, the Commission cannot go it alone. With a new group of
concerned government officials taking office, including the installment of a new Public
Information Officer / Director of News Media Relations, the City is ripe for building a
coalition of community partners interested in creating a positive image for National City.
Detailed below is Phase one of our objectives as well as our strategies and tactics for
helping build a coalition of partners through Media image enhancement projects
sponsored by the Port of San Diego. Once we have additional partners committed, we
can provide a Phase II Plan that will include building out the community partnerships and
highlighting them via strategic media relationships.
Objective
• To create an alliance among key influencers, media corporations, government
entities and non-profit organizations that will result in a united front in changing
the negative public perception surrounding National City
• To showcase Port of San Diego as the entity leading the charge for a better
tomorrow
Strategies
• Work with the mayor, city council, CDC and Port of San Diego to organize a
Summit, bringing together those interested in furthering National City's growth
interests and enhancing its image
• Design and implement an effective media relations strategy that will culminate
with day -of Summit coverage.
• Highlight Port of San Diego's key role in this project through key messages,
media materials and outreach efforts
• Attract community partners to join a united front by demonstrating benefits and
opportunities of such a coalition.
Tactics
Positioning & Messages
The City will work with the Port of San Diego, the CDC and the mayor / council to create
messages that speak to the Summit, the goals behind it, and the Port of San Diego's
crucial role in making it all possible. These messages will serve as the backbone of the
public relations campaign and partner outreach efforts, and will be refined when
appropriate.
Community Partner List Development
Strategic alliances and partnerships will be key, along with media relations, in changing
public perception surrounding National City. The Public Information Officer, CDC, the
Port of San Diego and the mayor / council will work to develop a list of potential
community partners from the following categories.
• Corporate (i.e. Mile of Cars BID, Wal-Mart, SDG&E)
• Non-profit (i.e. Irvine Foundation, Chamber of Commerce)
• Government Agencies (i.e. city council, Port Authority)
• Media (Le. News Organizations TV, Radio, Print)
Media List Development
We will build a customized media list for outreach surrounding the Summit. Targets will
fall into the following broad (we have provided a small sampling) categories:
• Summit Backgrounder
• City Fact Sheet
• Appropriate visuals (graphics, charts & head shots)
• Marketing Solutions, Benefits and Opportunities to Partnership
• Case studies
• Applicable press materials
News Bureau/Outreach
It's important that we initiate momentum by drafting an initial press release for long lead
media (i.e. San Diego Magazine, San Diego Metropolitan) and following up with a media
alert for short lead media. The announcements will build excitement for the City, helping
increase attendance and long-term participation. The press release and media alert will
position the Port of San Diego as the key agency responsible for enhancing the Image of
the City.
Without a doubt, the core of any successful public relations campaign hinges on the
agency's relationship with the media, and its ability to target the right publication with
the ideal story. The city of National City recently hired a Public Information Officer /
Dir. Of News Media Relations — Maria Arcega-Dunn Ms. Dunn isa longtime Broadcast
journalist who is also currently a part time News Reporter and TV News Anchor for FOX
6 News. She understands the importance of perceptions and enjoys great relationships
with the Television, Radio and Print Media Organizations not only locally but
internationally. She can present the right angle with any number of journalists from the
media target list.

BACKGROUND REPORT
The project site is in the southeast corner of the playing field at National City Middle School, adjacent
to East 18th Street and Otis Elementary School, in the Civic Institutional -Open Space Zone. Vegetation
in the area consists of the grass playing field and shrubbery along 18th Street. The 18th Street right-of-
way has mature trees along both sides of the street, the closest being a large mature palm 30 feet to the
east. The site is approximately eight feet lower than the adjacent sidewalk along 18th Street, and
approximately nine feet from the eastern and southern property lines.
The applicant proposes to install a 47-foot high artificial broadleaf tree, with twelve panel antennas, and
a 230 square foot equipment shelter. The shelter is proposed to be 11'/Z feet by 20 feet by 101/4 feet high,
and will be in place of an existing shipping container of the same size (the container will be relocated to
another, currently unknown, site on the property). The shelter would be of modular construction, with a
stucco finish to match school buildings, and would feature two 1-inch thick circular GPS antennas,
approximately 5 inches in diameter, and a small awning on the north side of shelter (opposite the
sidewalk -facing side). No landscaping is proposed.
The original project submittal for this property was proposed at a different location, on a playing field next
to the tennis courts but conflicted with school development plans. The proposal was revised and was
resubmitted in the current configuration. This project is one of only two artificial broadleaf trees proposed in
the City. The Planning Commission approved a similar design at National City Plaza at Euclid Avenue and
Division Street in October of this year.
The new proposal is a good example of a stealth facility, consistent with City policy. Samples of the
proposed leaves and bark have been received, along with photo simulations of the project. The antennas are
proposed to project approximately seven feet from the tree trunk but will be completely obscured by the
leaves and branches. The location of the equipment shelter is approximately eight feet below the grade of
the adjacent sidewalk. Combined with an existing 2 to 3 foot high wall along the sidewalk, this will screen
the shelter from the adjacent street. The equipment shelter would be covered with a smooth stucco coating to
match the fmish of the existing school buildings, and would also be surrounded by chain link fence.
Conventional and normally required screening techniques, including landscaping around the project and
slats for the chain link fence would draw attention to the site and may not be appropriate.
The Planning Commission held a hearing on this item on November 15, 2004. The applicant answered
questions regarding undergrounding of all wiring and cables, wireless facilities at other school sites in the
County, and site selection. While no other members of the public spoke, one letter in opposition was
received. The Planning Commission voted to approve the Conditional Use Permit, finding the site suitable
and the proposal in the interest of the public.
RESOLUTION NO. 42-2004
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION
OF THE CITY OF NATIONAL CITY, CALIFORNIA,
APPROVING A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
FOR A WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS FACILITY ON
NATIONAL CITY MIDDLE SCHOOL PROPERTY
AT 1701 D AVENUE
APPLICANT: TETRA TECH COMMUNICATIONS FOR NEXTEL
CASE FILE NO. CUP-2004-12
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of National City considered a
Conditional Use Permit for a wireless communications facility on National City Middle School
property at 1701 D Avenue at which time oral and documentary evidence was presented; and,.
WHEREAS, at said public hearing the Planning Commission considered the staff report
contained in Case File No. CUP-2004-12 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 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 November 15, 2004, support the following findings:
1. That the site for the proposed use is adequate in size and shape, since the small lease
area (762 square feet) will have little effect on use of the 9.26 acre school property,
and will not affect existing uses.
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 unmanned wireless communications facility requires only one to two
visits each month for routine maintenance, which can easily be accommodated by
the adjacent developed streets.
3. That the proposed use will not have an adverse effect upon adjacent or abutting
properties, since the 47-foot artificial broadleaf tree will adequately screen the
twelve panel antennas, and since the lower grade of the site will provide screening
of the equipment shelter from adjacent properties.
4. That the proposed use is deemed essential and desirable to the public convenience
and welfare, since it will improve the performance of the Nextel wireless
communications network, resulting in enhanced service for its customers.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the application for Conditional Use Permit is approved
subject to the following conditions:
This Conditional Use Permit authorizes a wireless communications facility at
National City Middle School. Except as required by conditions of approval, all plans
submitted for permits associated with the project shall conform with Exhibit A -
Revised, Case File No. CUP-2004-12, dated 10/7/2004. Any additional antennas
must substantially conform with the design for installation shown on these plans.
2. All wiring and cables between the equipment shelter and the artificial broadleaf tree
and antennas shall be placed underground.
3. The permittee shall not object to co -locating additional facilities of other
communication companies and sharing the project site, provided such shared use
does not result in substantial technical or quality -of -service impairment for the
permitted use. In the event a dispute arises with regard to co -locating with other
existing or potential users, the City may require a third party technical study at the
expense of either or both the applicant and the complaining user. This condition in
no way obligates the City to approve any co -location proposal if it is determined by
the City not to be desirable in a specific case.
4. Any antennas, equipment or facilities that are abandoned, decommissioned, or
become obsolete shall be removed.
5. Plans must comply with the 2001 editions of the California Building Code, the
California Mechanical Code, the California Plumbing Code, the California
Electrical Code, and California Title 24 energy and handicapped regulations.
6. Television cable companies shall be notified a minimum of 48 hours prior to filling
of cable trenches.
7. Exterior walls of buildings/poles to a height of not less than 6 feet shall be treated
with a graffiti resistant coating subject to approval from the Building and Safety
Director. Graffiti shall be removed within 24 hours of its observance.
8. The deteriorated portions of the existing street improvements (70' of sidewalk on
18th Street) along the property frontages shall be removed and replaced.
9. A permit shall be obtained from the Public Works Department for all improvement
work within the public right-of-way.
10. Before this Conditional Use Permit shall become effective, the applicant and the
property owner both shall sign and have notarized an Acceptance Form, provided by
the Planning Department, acknowledging and accepting all conditions imposed
upon the approval of this permit. Failure to return the signed and notarized
Acceptance Form within 30 days of its receipt shall automatically terminate the
Conditional Use Permit. The applicant shall also submit evidence to the satisfaction
of the Planning Director that a Notice of Restriction on Real Property is recorded
with the County Recorder. The applicant shall pay necessary recording fees to the
County. The Notice of Restriction shall provide information that conditions
imposed by approval of the Conditional Use Permit are binding on all present or
future interest holders or estate holders of the property. The Notice of Restriction
shall be approved as to form by the City Attorney and signed by the Planning
Director prior to recordation.
11. This permit shall become null and void if not exercised within one year after
adoption of the resolution of approval unless extended according to procedures
specified in Section 18.116.190 of the Municipal Code.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that copies of this Resolution be transmitted forthwith to
the applicant and to the City Council.
BE IT FINALLY RESOLVED that this Resolution .shall become effective and final on
the day following the City Council meeting where the Planning Commission resolution is set for
review, unless an appeal in writing is filed with the City Clerk prior to 5:30 p.m. on the day of
that City Council meeting. The City Council may, at that meeting, appeal the decision of the
Planning Commission and set the matter for public hearing.

Network Overview:
Since their introduction, wireless telecommunications systems have proved to be an invaluable
communications tool in the event of emergencies (traffic accidents, fires, etc.) and natural
disasters (earthquakes, floods, etc.) where normal land line communications are often disrupted,
overlooked, or inaccessible during and after an event has occurred. This service and similar
technology are utilized by numerous governmental and quasi -governmental agencies that provide
emergency service. Wireless telecommunications systems, including cellular telephones, have
also proved to be invaluable tools in business communications and everyday personal use. In
this sense, wireless telecommunications system networks have proved to be desirable in the
interest of public convenience, health, safety, and welfare.
Wireless communication is accomplished by linking a network of radio wave transmitting
devices such as portable and car phones, to the conventional telephone system through a series of
short-range, contiguous cells. Similar to a honeycomb pattern, a wireless system is composed of
many neighboring and interconnecting cells called, "cell sites," covering specific geographical
areas. Each cell site contains transmitting/receiving antennas and radio transmitting equipment.
As a customer enters one cell and exits another, the call is transferred between the cells by a
computer at the main switch station. Calls can originate or be received from a wireless device
because antennas share a fixed number of frequencies across the network grid. A caller may
initiate a call from within the radius of one cell antenna, as the caller travels through the network,
the call is transferred from one cell to the next, thus enabling continuous, uninterrupted
transmission.
Wireless technology operates on a line of sight, that is antennas must be mounted high enough to
overcome challenges posed by local topography, existing vegetation, avoid interference with
other wireless infrastructure, and surrounding structures/development. The distance between cell
sites will normally range from '/2 mile to 9 miles, depending on the population density, consumer
usage, existing vertical elements, and the geographical terrain. The required height for antennas
is usually proportional to a combination of the distance each cell site can service and the

customer demand within their sphere of influence. Typical placement for antennas are on utility
poles within the public right-of-way, light standards, freestanding towers, guyed towers, and
lattice, or self-support towers. Antennas can also be placed on rooftops, integrated into the
building's architecture, and other building features if the structure has sufficient height to meet
the needs of the service area. Wireless facilities located throughout Nextel's service area are
intended to provide seamless call coverage, capacity and quality to its network: The following
are some of the basic types of cell sites:
Coverage sites serve to expand coverage in large areas or in areas with difficult terrain
and to enhance coverage for portable systems. Coverage sites allow users to make and
maintain calls as they travel between cells.
Capacity sites serve to increase the capacity when surrounding sites have reached their
practical channel limits. As the years pass, the number of subscribers increases
exponentially creating a strain on the existing network. In order to alleviate this strain,
capacity sites are implemented into the systems network to accommodate the increase in
customer demand.
Federal Regulations:
Nextel Communications is a registered public utility, licensed and regulated by the California
Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) and the Federal Communications Commission (FCC).
Nextel will comply with all FCC/CPUC rules governing construction requirements, technical
standards, interference protection, power and height limitations, and radio frequency standards.
In addition, the company will comply with all Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) rules on
site locations and operation.
Benefits to the Community:
Wireless technology will provide many benefits to the residents, businesses, and motorists that
travel or live near the proposed project site. These benefits include:
• Quick access to 911 Emergency, even in remote regions, allowing motorists to summon
emergency aid and report dangerous situations.
• Support for emergency services by providing wireless communications access to
paramedics, firefighters, and law enforcement agencies that use this technology.
• A backup system to the landline telephone services in the event of power outages, natural
or man-made disasters.
• The ability to transmit data over the airwaves allowing for immediate access to vital
information to emergency services.
• Provide quality wireless communications including voice, paging, and digital data
capabilities for email, facsimile and Internet access.
• Enhance the communications systems of residents and business around the project
coverage area.

Summary of RF emissions calculations
Site # CA 7481B - Mabuhay
The attached RF Certification form was prepared by Nextel RF engineers on December
27, 2004 for the proposed telecommunication facility to be constructed at the National
City Middle School property located on 1701 D Avenue, National City, CA.
Through the Telecommunications Act of 1996, the Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) has established RF exposure standards which are endorsed by several health
agencies including Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Food and Drug
Administration (FDA), the National Institute on Occupational Safety and Health
(NIOSH) and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). The FCC
standards for human exposure to RF emissions were derived from recommendations of
two expert organizations, the National Council on Radiation Protection and
Measurements (NCRP) and the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE).
The exposure guidelines are based on threshold for known adverse effects and they
incorporate appropriate margin of safety.
The Telecommunications Act of 1996 also outlines federal jurisdiction over the
regulation of human exposure to RF emissions. In particular the Section 704 of the Act
states that "No State or local government or instrumentally thereof may regulate the
placement, construction, and modification of personal wireless service facilities on the
basis of the environmental effects of radio frequency emission to the extent that such
facilities comply with the Commission's regulations concerning such emissions."
In accordance with the FCC standards, the attached calculations indicate that the
proposed Nextel telecommunication facility at National City Middle School property is
expected to yield a maximum power densities of 0.567 mW/cm2 or 0.770566% of the
MPE (uncontrolled environment - public) and 2.837 mW/cm2 0.0160611% of the MPE
(controlled environment - worker) per each band radio. Assuming that all radios are
installed and operating simultaneously, which is not a typical scenario; the maximum RF
emissions will be 27.74% (uncontrolled) and 5.78% of the FCC maximum permissible
exposure levels. Therefore, the results of this analysis indicate that the maximum level of
RF energy to which the public may be exposed at the subject site is below all applicable
health and safety limits.

Christiansen Amusements was commissioned by Westfield Shoppingtown to conduct small family
carnivals at its various shopping centers throughout Southern California in 2001. As of this time events have
conducted safe and successful events at Mission Valley Center and Parkway Plaza in San Diego County with
events at UTC scheduled as well as Plaza Bonita.
This carnival event is targeted to reach the local community families surrounding Plaza Bonita and
provide affordable, safe entertainment for the community and Plaza Bonita customers.
Following is a list of rides and games. Not all of the rides and games will be used. The total number
selected will depend on the actual layout availability. See the attached plot plan and ride list for details.
A) Rides: Adult Rides: Sky Diver, Zipper, Hurricane, Scrambler, Tilt -A -Whirl, Gravitron, Bumper Cars
Kiddie Rides: Merry -Go -Round, Cycle & Cars, Go-Gator, Lady Bugs, Bumble Bees, Tea Party •
Non -mechanical: Fun Factory, Inflatable Slide Bounce, Computer Portrait.
B) Games: Glass Pitch, Rope Ladders, Derby Race, Water Race, Grab Bag, Milk Can, Balloon Dart, Mini -
Basketball, Long Range Basketball, Hi -Striker, Ring Toss, Stop Sign, others.
Christiansen Amusements has made standard policy for the these events the following elements which
help make for a safe, enjoyable event for all who attend:
1) A temporary, six-foot cyclone fence surrounds each event with one clearly marked entrance as the
only way into the carnival. This prevents random, uncontrolled access to and from the event.
2) Each event features a Security Guard staff that includes 1-2 guards monitoring the admission gate
and collecting all admission tickets. Any customers in inappropriate attire or unruly groups are
instructed that this is a family event and their actions must be accordingly. Also, 2-4 other guards
patrol the grounds of the carnival throughout all open hours to insure safe and proper activity.
Christiansen Amusements also has staff and supervisors that serve a security and control function.
One final similar element is attendance. Unlike circuses and concerts, the crowds and total attendance
are usually limited to a few hundred people at a time and a few thousand people total over the 30-hour
weekend event. This means that with the exception of the two or three busy hours Friday and Saturday
evenings, crowds and parking and traffic flow are easily monitored and controlled.
Christiansen Amusements knows that safety is the single most important element we must provide at our
carnivals and we address the issue seriously, professionally and effectively. We will take every precaution
necessary at Plaza Bonita to assure a safe and enjoyable atmosphere for everyone.

McDonald Transit Associates, Inc., Contract Operator for NCT

Route Development & Marketing:
NCT is in the final procurement phase for two (2) concession style trailers with an updated delivery
date of possibly mid January 2005. These trailers will be used primarily for ridership development
and dispersal of NCT/MTS system information at various locations such as the Euclid and 24th
Street Trolley stations and Plaza Bonita and at participating in NC special events and functions.
Bus shelters:
Due to the problems associated with a proposed joint NCT/Chula Vista shelter procurement, NCT
used approved CIP funds to purchase a non -advertising panel style 4' x 13' shelter and four person
bench from Tolar manufacturing which also supplies shelters for the MTDB and Viacom contract.
This shelter is similar to the models at our existing bus stops and was delivered to NCT in late
December and will be installed at the 21st & L Street location by mid January 2005. Ten metal
benches have also been previously delivered to NCT and will be installed after the final locations
have been determined and the necessary site work is finished. These benches were originally
dedicated for placement near Senior and elderly Centers along our three routes. If a separate
procurement for shelters that already have benches goes forward it may make these benches
available for other locations as well.
Events:
NCT decorated our facility with Christmas lights for the first time on the building section facing the
Blue Line Trolley. We received positive comments from employees and some residents and will be
looking to duplicate this each year as a new NCT Holiday tradition.
NCT provided five (5) buses without charge on 12/17 and transported 143 Los Palmas students and
teachers to a performance of the Nutcracker ballet at the Civic Theatre in San Diego. And on 12/18
NCT provided one (1) bus without charge and sponsored 35 children also for the Nutcracker
performance. This was a joint project between NC Community Services, National City Transit and
the California Ballet.
NCT conducted a Food Drive in conjunction with the Food Bank of National City and the Highland
Ave Baptist Church food ministry. Passengers who donated a non-perishable food item were
allowed to "ride free" from 12/12 thru 12/18. NCT collected 662 non-perishable food items during
this drive. This drive was coordinated with media assistance from Maria Arcega Dunn, the new NC
Public Information Officer and we are looking to expanding this event for the 2005 food drive.
NCT "adopted" a family for the Holidays. Donations were made to this event by the NC Kiwanis
Club ($100), McDonald Transit Associates ($500) along with NCT funds ($500) for a total of $1,100.
This money was used to purchase gift cards at Wal-Mart and Plaza Bonita in National City for the
nine Martinez children. Three of the children and their Grandmother also attended the NCT
employee Christmas Party held on 12/23 where they were presented with a large food basket by
employees containing a Christmas Turkey Dinner for twelve people with all the "fixings."
NCT provided three (3) shuttle buses to the Metropolitan Transportation System (MTS) in support
of the Holiday Bowl Football game at Qualcomm Stadium on December 30th and we carried 129
passengers. The NCT cost of this event will be reimbursed by MTS.
Training:
I attended a daylong seminar entitled " Counter Terrorism -The Suicide Bomber" held on
December 1st in San Diego. This training was conducted by Defender Training and Consultants and
utilized leading Israeli instructors to present this material. Some of the training information and
materials from this seminar is being incorporated into NCT new employee Orientation and on-
going safety classes.
Administration:
NCT participates and is a member of many standing Transportation Committees at MTDB and
SANDAG such as the Regional Transit Management Committee (RTMC), Transit Services and
Facilities Committee (TSFC), Operators Advisory Committee (OAC), Capital Improvement Plan
(CIP), Uniform Fare working group, and Accessible Services Advisory Committee (ASAC).
NCT staff or myself directly participates on the NC Chamber of Commerce Community
Promotions, Military Affairs, and Public Safety Committees and I was recently elected President of
the Chamber for a one-year term beginning in February 2005. This is indeed a very great honor
and I am sincerely humbled by the support from the Chamber membership and the Community
and will try to do a good job in that capacity.
NCT is also committed to working with the National City Community and residents through direct
participation in Community projects and organizations as volunteers or sponsors. NCT is also
willing to evaluate, and assist whenever possible to help meet the transportation needs of NC
departments and organizations on a case -by -case basis for special or annual events.

Mr. Roberto Saucedo
Public Works Superintendent
2100 Hoover Ave.
National City, CA 91950
Dear Mr. Saucedo,
I'm writing on behalf of my parents and I to express our deep appreciation for two National City Public
Works employees, Mario Lopez and Freddy Canedo.
During the last week of the December, when. most of National City was on vacation, my sewer backed up.
The problem was at a point where my sewer line entered the city's main. We hired a private contractor to clear
the line, but they were unable to clear the blockage. Desperate, I went to the National City Police for
assistance. It was there that they were able to get a hold of Mr. Canedo and on his vacation, came to my
residence to assess the situation. He ran some die down my line to determine that there was some flow,
enough to get me by until the following Monday. He instructed me how to deal with the problem until then. I
thought that it was an act of public service of the highest degree for Mr. Canebo to visit us on his day off to
do what he could to help. He did a lot to alleviate our concerns that we would be okay until Monday.
First thing today (Monday) he was at my residence with his boss, Mr. Lopez and they quickly and courteously
cleared the blockage and further promised that they would "flash" the main line later in the day to ensure that
I would have no further problems.
I'm a former manager of a printing company with many of my former 34 employees having high customer
contact. I know firsthand the importance of having hard-working and personable people working on my team.
I just want you to know that you have two first class employees in Mr. Lopez and Mr. Canebo. I can tell you
that they're fine representatives of National City Public Works and I would appreciate it if you would let them
know personally that we, my parents and I, appreciate there exemplary service to us and the community of
National City.
Sincerely,
Eric E. Peterson

On November 16, 2004 the City Council voted to extend the Emergency Ordinance originally
adopted in December of 2003 which barred new check cashing businesses from opening in
National City. Prior to the vote Mayor Inzunza noted that there had been discussion concerning
an instance where a check cashing store desired to move and transfer it's business license from a
rental site to a location across the street which was owned and being redeveloped by the store
operator. It was suggested that consideration of allowing the transfer of the license in this
exceptional circumstance, where there would be no net increase in sites, could be addressed by
the council at a future meeting.
We represent the store operator who has already received a conditional use permit to redevelop a
significant site on the northwest corner of Plaza and Highland, which is a 43,600 sq. ft. parcel
with the intention of redeveloping of a 13,000 sq. ft. building. This same operator/developer has
an existing lease for a check cashing store in a 2300 sq.ft. location known as the "Shapiro site"
directly across the street from this redevelopment site. Our client wishes to discontinue his lease
in the "Shapiro site" and transfer his license to an 1800 sq.ft. portion of his 13,000 sq.ft.
redeveloped building for his existing checking cashing business.
The plans for the redevelopment of this parcel were originally filed with the city on December 8,
2003. At that time the city was made fully aware of the intention to use a small portion
redeveloped building area as a transfer location for the check cashing business across the
street. The project had been discussed with both the mayor and Ben Martinez of Community
Development for an extensive period prior to filing in December of 2003. It is significant to recall
that Mr. Martinez was very positive about plans for leaving the "Shapiro site" for the new
location since this would help in the possible redevelopment of the "Shapiro site". In April of
2004 a conditional use permit for this redeveloped shopping center at the northwest corner of
Plaza Blvd. and Highland Avenue was approved by the City Council. Because of the moratorium,
check cashing and payday advance businesses were prohibited at that time from operating on the
premises. This restriction, of course, can be modified by the City Council. We suggest that the
strict interpretation of the Moratorium would place an unfair burden on our client since it had
already formed its redevelopment plan many months prior to any final council action on the
moratorium, and staff knowing that our client was proposing to move his business from across the
street, was extremely positive about this major redevelopment on this important intersection.
Based upon staffs enthusiastic support, our client moved rapidly forward, expending substantial
funds to complete the necessary engineering and design studies.
We would ask that the present Moratorium Ordinance be amended to alleviate this inequity to our
client and it can be done without doing harm to the goals of the moratorium. There would be no
net increase in licenses, but merely a transfer from a leased site to one owned by the licensee.
Besides allowing a transfer from a rental site to an owned site, further qualifying conditions might
include:
1. The setting of a maximum distance between an existing leased site that is closing.to. a new site,.
owned by the same owner. We would suggest a distance of between 100 and 150 feet. Thus, the
transfer ofa business license by the same business owner could only occur if the distance between
the existing site and the new site is less than 100 to 150 feet and is the new site owned by the
licensee.
2. A second qualification might relate to the date that the plans were originally submitted for any
new/transferred site. We would suggest that if plans were submitted prior to the formal
establishment of the interim moratorium (Jan. 6, 2004) that the new. site location should be
exempt from the prohibition provisions.
We believe that only our client, USA Checks Cashed, was caught up in the emergency ordinance
and only our client will be affected by your remedial action, which will not change the number of
licenses existing in National City.
We would appreciate the courtesy ofa brief meeting with you to review with you the plans for
this redevelopment and we will call you in the first week of the new year for such an appointment.
Sincerely,
Milch & Wolfs
Louis Wolfsheimer
