I manage an industrial park in National City (2807/2827 IIoover Avenue) and have had an ongoing problem with the owner of a motorhome (Southwind = license 5PGE718) parking on the street next to one (Amy buildings (2807 Iloover Avenue). I've reported this issue numerous times to Code Enforcement. 1 leave them a message, sometimes they call me back, and sometimes they don't. I've left numerous messages for Code Enforcement over the past two years. According to my tenants, the code enforcement officer has only ticketed the motor home a few times. When the vehicle was ticketed, the owner moved it and we didn't see it again for a month. Again, according to my tenants, there arc several rnotorhomes parked along Hoover Avenue on a weekly basis. Some look as if they are lived in, others arc being stored there by their owners. The Southwind motor home that 1 am speaking of is very unsitely. it also creates a huge potential hazard when parked there. When you are pulling out of the parking tot, it blocks your view (to the left) and it is hard to see oncoming traflic.traveling north on hoover Avenue. The tenant closest to the street sells mobility equipment/furniture for the handicapped and those persons needing assistance. A lot of the tenant's customers are elderly. We are very concerned that eventually there could be an accident due to this motor home. We would like to request that the City consider painting the curb red, along the west side of both buildings (2807 & 2827 Iloover). This would enable us to request immediate towing, should this party or anyone else park in this area. Thank you for any assistance that you can' offer in this matter. We welcome your feedback, as well as any other suggestions you might have to resolve this problem. Sincerely, Karen Hitchcock Property Manager for South Bay Business Center P.O.

We are located at 1428 McKinley Ave. We operate a transportation company servicing corporate clients in the general area. We have 36 vehicles which are based at this location. Our fleet is made up of sedans, vans, limousines and mini coaches. We have vehicles leaving and returning to this location 24 hours per day. All vehicles use a driveway located on the south end of our facility. We are asking the city and your committee to consider painting the curb on the north and south end of the driveway red, for approximately 10 feet on both sides. The reason we are asking for this, is to prevent any potential accident which may he caused by limited visibility caused by vehicles parked close to the driveway on both sides. We are currently upgrading mirrors for the driveway, but feel the red curb would greatly increase the visibility. We appreciate your consideration in this matter and look forward to your response. if you need additional information, please contact me at 619.702.7737 X304. Sincerely Your, John F.

PREPARED BY Walter Amedee OP- DEPARTMENT (Ext. 4556) EXPLANATION Infant abandonment is an event that does not occur very often, but when it does, it often results in serious injury or death. In 2001, SB1368 became law and established the Safely Surrender Baby program. The purpose of the law is to encourage parents to bring unwanted infants, up to three days old, to reception centers such as hospitals or fire stations, rather than abandon them in dumpsters or bushes. No names are required and the parent(s) will not be subject to prosecution for child abandonment. The baby will receive needed medical treatment and be placed in an adoptive home. There is a mechanism for parents to reclaim the infant within 14 days if deemed appropriate by Child Welfare Services. The Safely Surrendered Baby law established hospitals as safe haven sites and allowed the Counties to designate other facilities, such as fire stations, as safe haven sites. On December 11, 2007, the San Diego County Board of Supervisors approved the designation of fire stations that are staffed full-time as safe haven sites. Fire stations are located in the communities where people work and live, and fire stations have always been thought of as places where people can go to get help. A local fire station can be less intimidating than a hospital. Statewide 182 newborns have been safely surrendered in Califomia since the law was enacted. Unfortunately, infants continue to be illegally abandoned resulting in injury and death. In north San Diego County, two abandoned infants have been found dead in the past two years. It is frightening to consider how many abandoned infants were never found. The opportunity of hope for a potentially abandoned infant that a fire station safe haven provides is well worth the minimal cost and effort. Training and materials will cost th City under $300. Environmental Review N/A Financial Statement Minor impact; training and materials will cost under $300. Approved By: nance Director Account No. 001-412-125-399-0000 STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Council adopt the attached resolution designating National City Fire Stations #31 and #34 as Safe Haven Sites under the Safely Surrendered Baby law.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of National City, that the testimony and evidence presented to the City Council at the public hearing held on January 22, 2008, fail to support findings required by the Municipal Code for granting any conditional use permit, that the proposed use will not have an adverse effect on adjacent or abutting properties, and that the proposed use is deemed essential and desirable to the public convenience or welfare. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of National City that the testimony and evidence presented to the City Council at the public hearing held on January 22, 2008, supports the following findings: 1. That the proposed use will have an adverse effect upon the existing use by limiting access to the building for deliveries because the proposed project would relocate parking for the tenant including the loading area, other adequate parking within close proximity to the loading dock is not available, and the overall parking would be reduced and negatively impacted due to the reconfiguration because loading and deliveries would occur in the parking lot area, blocking traffic flow and parking access. That the close proximity of the equipment shelter to the rear door of the building (within 10 feet) will create constant noise and vibration which will be detrimental to the operation of the donut shop and the comfort of the patrons since the door is frequently open to allow for necessary ventilation. The relocation of the trash enclosure closer to the rear door would create the potential for negative odors to enter the food service facility. Resolution No. 2008 — February 5, 2008 Page 2 The installation of the wireless facilities and the improvements to the site will necessitate the existing tenant to discontinue operation for an unspecified period of time which would be detrimental to the small business owner, would severely impact the ability to continue operation, and an unused building may attract criminal activity. 5. The proposed use may limit the opportunity for future redevelopment of the site by restricting the area available for site improvements since a portion of the site would be committed to a long-term lease for a use not in furtherance of General Plan goals. The proposed use has not been determined to be essential and desirable to the public convenience or welfare because it has been documented that only one other site was explored and other sites that would provide comparable service coverage have not been adequately explored. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Council denies Conditional Use Permit Application No. 2007-20 CUP. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that this Resolution shall become effective and final on the day following the City Council meeting where the resolution is adopted. The time within which judicial review of this decision may be sought is governed by the provisions of Code of Civil Procedure Section 1094.6. PASSED and ADOPTED this 5th day of February, 2008.

Eiser, III City Attorney City of National City, California COUNCIL AGENDA STATEMENT iEETING DATE February 5, 2008 AGENDA ITEM NO. 15 (ITEM TITLE Resolution of the City of National City requesting SANDAG to provide advanced funding through debt financing for resurfacing street improvements in the amount of $4,500,000 and authorizing the City Manager to execute a Memorandum of Understanding between the San Diego Association of Govemments and the City of National City PREPARED BY Din Daneshfar DEPARTMENT Engineering EXT. 4387 EXPLANATION See attached explanation. 1 Environmental Review X N/A MIS Approval Financial Statement Approved By: Finance Director The advanced funding will be effective upon SANDAG's completion of the MOU execution and reflected in the City's CIP (08-09). Account No STAFF RECOMMENDATION Adopt the Resolution, direct a City Clerk t ct,the Res, u ion to the signed MOU, and submit it to SANDAG for its execution. BOARD / COMMISSION R 0 MEDATIOIN / N/A ATTACHMENTS (Listed Below) Resolution No. 1. Resolution 2. MOU l A-200 (Rev 7/03) EXPLANATION: Background In November 1987 and 2004, the voters of San Diego County approved the San Diego Transportation Improvement Program Ordinance and Expenditure (Proposition A). City of National City has been receiving an estimated $1,000,000 in revenues annually from these Sales Tax Funds (TransNet). These revenues have been used to resurface the city streets as well as repair curbs, gutters, sidewalks, driveways, pedestrian crossings and provide traffic stripping and signage. The City of National City has 217 lane miles of street. On the average the City resurfaces approximately 3 lane miles of streets each year. At this rate, the City cannot keep up with the resurfacing needs of the City streets. Moreover, any deferred repair and resurfacing, lead to much higher repair costs in the future. Implementation of a large resurfacing program at this time allows National City to not only avoid tremendously higher future repair costs (due to worsening pavement conditions as well as escalating construction costs), it also allows us to take advantage of better bid prices in a slow construction market. $6.5 million resurfacing program The Engineering Department is gearing up to implement an approximately $6.5 million resurfacing program for the City of National City in 2008. The estimated $6.5 million consist primarily of a $4.5 million from Transnet short term debt in addition to using another approximately $2 million that consist of a variety of other funding sources as follows: Estimated Funds Available for Street Resurfacing (08-09) TRANSNET (June 2008) $257,000 Gas Tax (08-09) $338,000 CIWMB Grant (Chip Seal) $150,000 CIWMB Grant (Overlay) $150,000 Proposition 1 B $982,000 TRANSNET Financing (August 2008) $4,500,000 Total $6,377,000 SANDAG Transnet Short Term Debt The San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) has a debt financing program that allows the cities to receive advanced funding for their transportation projects. In order to obtain these funds a request to SANDAG must be processed through a Council Resolution for the debt financing. In 2005, City of National City received $3 million through the same mechanism. At this time, we are requesting that the Council approve a new $4.5 Million program in debt financing in order for the City to be able to keep its resurfacing effort and keep that the integrity of the City infrastructure. SANDAG's Interest & Administration Costs and City's Payment Responsibilities The City of National City will be responsible for repayment of the debt in the next 5 years. The City must also pay for its proportional share of the cost of the annual interest and administrative costs of the commercial paper. SANDAG will deduct the principal, interest and proportionate administrative costs from the City of National City monthly TransNet Sales tax allocations prior to making any other sales tax payments for other City of National City projects. There will be some remaining TransNet funds after the payments each year. The remaining funds will be used for other transportation projects in the City. Street Conditions and Program Implementation The existing pavement conditions in the City neighborhood streets have been rapidly deteriorating in the past few years. Using this funding program is a good opportunity to resurface a large number of street sections in one year. The long term cost savings in doing a large scale program at one time will more than compensate for the interests and other costs paid on the debt. Compilation of Street Resurfacing List Engineering Staff is working to identify sections throughout the City and along neighborhood streets. In that effort, the Department is using the Pavement Condition Index (PCI) as established in the "2003 Pavement Management Program Update" study as well as visual inspections and other reports. This PCI is a numerical value assigned to a pavement section based on its condition. The project will use Rubberized Asphalt Concrete (RAC) which offers a number of benefits compared to conventional asphalt concrete paving. These benefits include longer service life, dark color retention, and significantly reduced road noise due to vehicular traffic. RAC is more resistant to cracking and lowers maintenance costs. It is also safer by providing superior wet traction and greater skid resistance. Moreover, RAC is a far superior product from an environmental stand point as it uses used recycled rubber as a primary material source and as such contributes to the recycling effort. Project Schedule It is expected that the project will begin construction in August 2008. Staff Recommendation Engineering Staff recommends that this TransNet Debt Financing Resolution be adopted. RESOLUTION NO. 2008 — RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF NATIONAL CITY REQUESTING SANDAG, THROUGH ITS TRANSNET COMMERCIAL PAPER PROGRAM, TO PROVIDE ADVANCED FUNDING THROUGH DEBT FINANCING FOR IMPROVEMENTS ON THE NATIONAL CITY STREET RESURFACING PROGRAM, AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE A MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING BETWEEN THE CITY AND SANDAG TO MEMORIALIZE THE TERM OF THE ADVANCED FUNDING WHEREAS, SANDAG, acting as the San Diego County Regional Transportation Commission, is responsible for the administration of the TransNet program (Proposition A, November 1987 and November 2004); and WHEREAS, to accelerate the implementation of sales tax funded projects, SANDAG has established debt financing programs to provide advanced funding for eligible projects under the TransNet program; and WHEREAS, the following project being implemented by the City of National City have been approved by SANDAG through the 2008 TransNet Program of Projects and would benefit from the availability of advance funding: NATIONAL CITY STREET RESURFACING PROGRAM, which requires an amount of $4,500.000 (Four million five hundred thousand dollars) in debt financing. NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of National City as follows: 1. That the City Manager is hereby authorized to request advance funding from SANDAG through its debt financing program in an amount not to exceed $4,500,000 (Four million five hundred thousand dollars). 2. That the City Manager is hereby authorized to execute the Memorandum of Understanding between the City and SANDAG regarding the TransNet Commercial Paper Program, and any other necessary documents relating to the receipt of said funds from SAN DAG. 3. That the City of National City will be responsible for paying its proportionate share of the annual interest and administrative costs of the commercial paper based on the ratio of the amount of financing provided to the City of National City to the total commercial paper outstanding for each fiscal year. 4. That SANDAG will deduct said interest and administrative costs from the City of National City monthly TransNet Sales tax allocations prior to making any other sales tax payrnents for other City of National City projects. 5. That the City of National City will repay to SANDAG the principal amount borrowed according to the schedule set forth in Attachment "A". If paid from future sales tax revenues, these principal payments will be deducted by SANDAG from City of National City's monthly TransNet sales tax allocations prior to making any other sales payments for other City of National City's projects. Resolution No. 2008 -- February 5, 2008 Page 2 6.

In lieu of increases to base salary, individuals in these two categories were granted one-time retention incentive bonuses in calendar years 2006 and 2007.

This year, both managers and executives are eligible to receive up to five percent (5%) at the discretion of the City Manager. With this item, the City Council allocates the funds in an amount not to exceed $145,300 for the award of said performance retention incentive bonuses.

Staff Report on the adoption of the 2007 California Building Standards Commission Codes, the 2006 International Building Code, the 2006 Uniform Mechanical and Plumbing Codes, the 2005 National Electric Code and the 2006 International Fire Code • This year the California Building Standards Commission chose to adopt the 2006 international Building Code published by the International Code Council (ICC), as the model code, along with the 2006 Uniform Mechanical and Plumbing ('odes, published by the international Association of -Plumbing and Mechanical Officials (IAPMO), the 2005 National Electric Code published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and the 2006 International Fire Code, published by ICC. California Building Code/International Building Code There are several significant changes brought about by these new codes, which include the change in determination of seismic zones. The past code established four seismic zones within the State of California, of which, the most restrictive zone 4 covered all of San Diego County. This dictated specific design requirements for construction. The new code adopts six seismic areas, A, B, C, D, h and F and makes the design requirements more site specific which may lower some design criteria which in turn may reduce some of the costs of construction. This change allows a larger pallet of design criteria for the architects, engineers and designers; however, it requires the inclusion ofa soils report for nearly all projects that involve the expansion of existing buildings or the construction of new buildings. National City is expected to he mainly in seismic area D due to prevailing soil conditions. A significant change to the Wood chapter (Chapter 23), of the IBC changes the separation from wood to earth, including wood sheathing from 6" to 8", unless it is naturally durable (e.g. redwood) or is preservative treated wood. Another change to the codes involves the use of the term Authority Having Jurisdiction in place of Building Official. This change eliminates the requirement to change the position designation for other department heads. 'Phis is particularly appropriate for the City Of National City in view of the fact that we currently do not have a Building Official. The AI IJ is currently the Acting Director of Building and Safety. In the current code, the use of 5/8" anchor bolts with 2" x 2" x 3/ I•6" washers was dictated by the fact that San Diego County was in seismic zone 4. With the new seismic area designations, some design criteria may again allow the use of 'A" anchor bolts under some conditions, to be determined by the designer of the project. The size of the anchor bolt washers, however has changed to 3" x 3" x 3/16" with a diagonal slot. The slot is to permit centering of the washer on the sill plates even though the anchor bolts may be slightly off center. 3 With the new code, Appendix i, Patio Covers, the installation of glass windows is now permitted, except these glazed walls may not interfere with any openings which serve as emergency egress or rescue openings, such as bedroom windows. The code has changed with regard to both light and ventilation requirements and emergency egress from the first floor of a dwelling. The required light is now 8% of the floor area of the room served, vise the current 10%, and the ventilation has been accordingly reduced from 5% to 4%. Where the current code requires a minimum of 5.7 square feet of net clear opening for an emergency egress window, the new code requires only 5 square feet for bedroom windows on the first floor. Above the first floor, the 5.7 square feet of opening is still required. The other change to this egress requirement is that, instead of the maximum sill height being 44" above the floor, now the bottom of the clear opening is to be a maximum of 44" above the floor which will necessitate the lowering of the window framing to account for the actual window frames. We have added a provision to each of the codes regarding the extension of permits. This added provision is designed to recognize the fact that National City supports the service men and women who are a vital part of our conununity. The adoptive ordinance section of each of the codes has a provision allowing the extension of permits for at least six months after the return of personnel who have been deployed to a foreign country. California Plumbing Code/Uniform Plumbing Code A major change to the Plumbing Code occurred with the allowance of CPVC piping for both hot and cold -water distribution in residential buildings. Its approval places requirements and restrictions for its use and installation on the contractor/installer and requires certification from contractors and sub -contractors with respect to worker safety. The use of this material as well as PEX products was not adopted in the previous code, and PEX is still not and accepted material. California Mechanical Code/Uniform Mechanical Code The Mechanical Code contains numerous editorial changes including an expanded list of definitions to clarify some of these changes. Chapter 5 contains numerous changes regarding venting. Chapters 3, 4, 7,and 9 contain changes which may be considered moderate in nature regarding fuel gas connections, combustion air and equipment installation. None of the changes appear to have significant impact. California Electric Code/National Electric Code The National Electric Code contains a number of changes that, for the most part, are minor and technical. A significant change that will affect us is the increased requirements regarding pool bonding measures. The new code extends the bonding grid 4 of the pool to include the concrete decking, to a maximum of three feet from the pool edge that will require the decking to contain reinforcement in the form of a steel grid system which is to be bonded to the steel within the pool shell. Most of the other changes to the NEC are, again, editorial in nature. California Fire Code/international Fire Code There have been multiple Articles and Sections, which have received language revisions. These revisions address issues as simplistic as condensing the information and language clean up, to addressing new standards being utilized. The following are a few changes, which have occurred, in the Fire Code: Chapter 9, section 903 has expanded the requirements for automatic fire sprinkler system, encompassing areas that previously were only covered within the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standards. A few of the areas now addressed are the requirements of fire sprinklers in rubbish and linen chutes used in multiple story buildings. Chapter 9, section 909 now addresses the need and use of smoke control systems within covered mall occupancies. Snwke systems provide for the tenable environment for the evacuation and or relocation of occupants. Smoke control systems are designed to maintain the smoke level within the occupancy at a level high enough to provide for clear air at the pedestrian level. Chapter 47, now further addresses requirements for Wildland-Urban interface Fire areas. The mitigation of conditions where a wildfire burning in vegetative fuels may readily transmit fire to buildings and threaten to destroy life, overwhelm fire suppression capabilities, or result in large property losses shall comply with this chapter. Appendix I) Fire "Apparatus Access Roads" has increased its standards to reflect the ever -changing weight, design and dimensions of new fire apparatus. Approved fire apparatus access roads shall be provided for every facility, building or portion of a building hereafter constructed or moved into or within the jurisdiction. These sections will address but not limited too, turning radius, dead- ends, grade, road width etc. 5- Chapter 15.08 CALIFORNIA BUILDING CODE* Sections: 15.08.010 California Building Code — Adopted 15.08.015 Chapter 1, ADMINISTRATION — Deleted 15.08.020 Chapter 2, DEFINITIONS - Added 15.08.025 Appendix Chapter 1, Section 104.6 — "Right of Entry" -- Amended 15.08.030 Appendix Chapter 1, Section 105.2 — "Work exempt from permit" — Amended 15.08.035 Appendix Chapter 1, Section 105.3.2 "'Time limitation of application" — Amended 15.08.040 Appendix Chapter 1, Section 105.5 "Expiration" — Amended 15.08.045 Appendix Chapter 1, Section 105.7 "Placement of permit" — Amended 15.08.050 Appendix Chapter 1, Section 105.8 "Permit denial" — Added 15.08.055 Appendix Chapter 1, Section 108.2 "Fees" — Amended 15.08.060 Appendix Chapter 1, Section 108.4 "Work commencing before permit issuance" - Amended 15.08.065 Appendix Chapter 1, Section 1093.8.1 "Re -inspections" — Added 15.08.070 Appendix Chapter 1, Section 1103 "Temporary Occupancy" — Amended 15.08.075 Appendix Chapter 1, Section 112.1 "Board of Appeals" — Amended 15.08.080 Appendix Chapter 1, Section 113 "Violations" - Amended 15.08.085 Section 501.2 "Address Numbers" - Amended 15.08.090 'Table 1505.1 "Minimum Roof Covering Classification" — Amended 15.08.095 Section 3407.1.1 "Historic Buildings" — Added 15.08.100 Appendix Chapters C, G, H, and I — Adopted Section: 15.08.010 California Building Code Adopted The city council adopts, for the purpose of prescribing regulations governing the erection, construction, enlargement, alteration, repair, moving, removal, demolition, conversion, occupancy, use, height, area, fire resistance and maintenance of all buildings and/or structures, the 2007 California Building Code, California Code of Regulations 'Title 24, Part 2, of the California State llealth and Safety Code Sections 18901, et. seq., Volumes I and 11, Appendix Chapter 1 and Appendices C, G, H and I, published by the International Code Council and the California Building Standards Commission 2007 Edition, along with the International Building Code 2006 Edition for those provisions not included in the California Building Code including specified Appendices, save and except such portions as are deleted, added, or modified, of which copies of all the codes have been and are now filed in the office of the Director of Building and Safety; and, the same are adopted and incorporated as fully set out at length in this chapter, and from March 10, 2008 the provisions thereof shall be controlling within the city limits. 15.08.015 Chapter 1 ADMINISTRATION - Deleted Chapter 1, GENERAL CODE PROVISIONS of the 2007 California Building Code is deleted with the exception of the California Matrix Adoption Table which includes those sections mandated to be enforced by the Authority Having Jurisdiction. 15.08.020 Chapter 2 Definitions - Added The following definition is added to Section 202: Authority Having Jurisdiction.

Section 80.19(E) of Annex G of the 2007 California Electrical Code is amended to read as follows: 80.18(E) Fees. The fees for each electrical permit shall be as set forth in the fee schedule adopted by the City Council. 15.24.040 Annex G, Section 80.19(F) "Inspection and Approvals" — Amended. Section 80.19(F) of Annex G of the 2007 California Electrical Code is amended to read as follows: (1) All electrical systems and equipment for which a permit is required by this code shall be subject to inspection by the Authority Having Jurisdiction, and the electrical system shall remain accessible and exposed for inspection purposes until approved by the Authority Having Jurisdiction. It shall be the duty of the permit applicant to cause the electrical system to remain accessible and exposed for inspection purposes. Neither the Authority Having Jurisdiction, nor the City of National City shall be liable for the expense entailed in the removal or replacement of any material required to permit inspection. When the installation of an electrical system and equipment is complete, an additional and final inspection shall be made. Electrical system and equipment regulated by this code shall not be connected to the energy source until authorized by the Authority Having Jurisdiction. Approval as a result of an inspection shall not be construed to be an approval of a violation of the provisions of this code or of other ordinances of the jurisdiction. Inspections presuming to give authority to violate or cancel provisions of this code of other ordinances of the jurisdiction shall not be valid. (2) Inspection requests. It shall be of the duty of the person doing the work authorized by the permit to notify the Authority Having Jurisdiction that such work is ready for inspection. The Authority Having Jurisdiction may require that every request for inspection be filed at least one working day before such inspection is desired. Such request may be in writing or by telephone at the option of the Authority Having Jurisdiction. It shall be the duty of the person requesting inspections required by this code to provide access to and means for inspection of such work. (3) Operation of Electrical Equipment.

Pursuant to Government Code sections 50022.2 through 50022.4 and 6066, these codes may be adopted by reference after the public hearing. 1 Copies of the Codes and adopting ordinances have been filed with the City Clerk and are available for inspection from the date of the first reading through the date of the public hearing on February 19, 2008. The provisions of Government Code sections 25124 and 36933 providing for publication of ordinances are being complied with. The ordinances will be given a second and final reading on February 19, 2008, and may be adopted at the Council Meeting of February 19, 2008. This notice is dated January _ , 2008. 2 Staff Report on the adoption of the 2007 California Building Standards Commission Codes, the 2006 International Building Code, the 2006 Uniform Mechanical and Plumbing Codes, the 2005 National Electric Code and the 2006 International Fire Code This year the California Building Standards Commission chose to adopt the 2006 International Building Code published by the International Code Council (ICC), as the model code, along with the 2006 Uniform Mechanical and Plumbing Codes, published by the International Association of Plumbing and Mechanical Officials (IAPMO), the 2005 National Electric Code published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and the 2006 International Fire Code, published by ICC. California Building Code/International Building Code There are several significant changes brought about by these new codes, which include the change in determination of seismic zones. The past code established four seismic zones within the State of ( alifornia, of which, the most restrictive zone 4 covered all of San Diego County. This dictated specific design requirements for construction. The new code adopts six seismic areas, A, B, C, 1), E and F and makes the design requirements more site specific which may lower some design criteria which in turn may reduce some of the costs of construction. This change allows a larger pallet of design criteria for the architects, engineers and designers; however, it requires the inclusion of a soils repot for nearly all projects that involve the expansion of existing buildings or the construction of new buildings. National City is expected to he mainly in seismic area D due to prevailing soil conditions. A significant change to the Wood chapter (Chapter 23), of the IBC changes the separation lrorn wood to earth, including wood sheathing from 6" to 8", unless it is naturally durable (e.g. redwood) or is preservative treated wood. Another change to the codes involves the use of the term Authority Having Jurisdiction in place of Building Official. This change eliminates the requirement to change the position designation for other department heads. This is particularly appropriate for the City Of National City in view of the fact that we currently do not have a Building Official. The AHJ is currently the Acting Director of Building and Safety. In the current code, the use of 5/8" anchor bolts with 2" x 2" x 3/16" washers was dictated by the fact that San Diego County was in seismic zone 4. With the new seismic area designations, some design criteria may again allow the use of 'A" anchor bolts under some conditions, to be determined by the designer of the project. The size of the anchor bolt washers, however has changed to 3" x 3" x 3/16" with a diagonal slot. The slot is to permit centering of the washer on the sill plates even though the anchor bolts may he slightly off center. 3 With the new code, Appendix 1, Patio Covers, the installation of glass windows is now permitted, except these glazed walls may not interfere with any openings which serve as emergency egress or rescue openings, such as bedroom windows. The code has changed with regard to both light and ventilation requirements and emergency egress from the first floor of a dwelling. The required light is now 8% of the floor area of the room served, vise the current 10%, and the ventilation has been accordingly reduced from 5% to 4%. Where the current code requires a minimum of 5.7 square feet of net clear opening for an emergency egress window, the new code requires only 5 square feet for bedroom windows on the first floor. Above the first floor, the 5.7 square feet of opening is still required. The other change to this egress requirement is that, instead of the maximum sill height being 44" above the floor, now the bottom of the clear opening is to he a maximum of 44" above the floor which will necessitate the lowering of the window framing to account for the actual window frames. We have added a provision to each of the codes regarding the extension of permits. This added provision is designed to recognize the fact that National City supports the service men and women who are a vital part of our conununity. The adoptive ordinance section of each of the codes has a provision allowing the extension of permits for at least six months after the return of personnel who have been deployed to a foreign country. California Plumbing Code/Uniform Plumbing Code A major change to the Plumbing Code occurred with the allowance of CP V C: piping for both hot and cold -water distribution in residential buildings. Its approval places requirements and restrictions for its use and installation on the contractor/installer and requires certification from contractors and sub -contractors with respect to worker safety. The use of this material as well as PEX products was not adopted in the previous code, and PEX is still not and accepted material. California Mechanical Code/Uniform Mechanical Code 'fhe Mechanical Code contains numerous editorial changes including an expanded list of definitions to clarify some of these changes. Chapter 5 contains numerous changes regarding venting. Chapters 3, 4, 7,and 9 contain changes which may he considered moderate in nature regarding fuel gas connections, combustion air and equipment installation. None of the changes appear to have significant impact. California Electric Code/National Electric Code The National Electric Code contains a number of changes that, for the most part, are minor and technical. A significant change that will affect us is the increased requirements regarding pool bonding measures. The new code extends the bonding grid 4 of the pool to include the concrete decking, to a maximum of three feet from the pool edge that will require the decking to contain reinforcement in the form of a steel grid system which is to be bonded to the steel within the pool shell. Most of the other changes to the NEC are, again, editorial in nature. California Fire Code/International Fire Code There have been multiple Articles and Sections, which have received language revisions. These revisions address issues as simplistic as condensing the information and language clean up, to addressing new standards being utilized. The following are a few changes, which have occurred, in the Fire Code: Chapter 9, section 903 has expanded the requirements for automatic fire sprinkler system, encompassing areas that previously were only covered within the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standards. A few of the areas now addressed arc the requirements of fire sprinklers in rubbish and linen chutes used in multiple story buildings. Chapter 9, section 909 now addresses the need and use of smoke control systems within covered mall occupancies. Smoke systems provide for the tenable environment for the evacuation and or relocation of occupants. Smoke .control systems are designed to maintain the smoke level within the occupancy at a level high enough to provide for clear air at the pedestrian level. Chapter 47, now further addresses requirements for Wik land -Urban Interface Fire areas. The mitigation of conditions where a wildfire burning in vegetative fuels may readily transmit fire to buildings and threaten to destroy life, overwhelm fire suppression capabilities, or result in large property losses shall comply with this chapter. Appendix 1) Fire "Apparatus Access Roads" has increased its standards to reflect the ever -changing weight, design and dimensions of new fire apparatus. Approved fire apparatus access roads shall be provided for every facility, building or portion of a building hereafter constructed or moved into or within the jurisdiction. These sections will address but not limited too, turning radius, dead- ends, grade, road width etc. Sections: 15.24.005 15.24.010 15.24.015 15.24.020 Chapter 15.24 CALIFORNIA ELECTRICAL CODE* California Electrical Code (2007 Edition), the National Electrical Code (NEC-2005 Edition) and Article 80 of the National Electrical Code (2005 Edition) — Adopted and amended Annex G, Administration and Enforcement — Adopted and amended Section 80.13� "AuttherityRight of Entry""-1 --Added-and-Amended Section 80.13 (16) Electric Fences Prohibited - Added 15.24.020025 Section 80.15 "Electric Board" Amended 15.24_025030 15.24_030035 15.24.035040 15.24.040045- 15.24_045050 15.24 _050055 amended 15.24_055060 15.24_0600655 15.24. 065070 15.24 _070075 Section 80.19 (D) "Annual Permits" - Deleted Section 80.19(E) "Fees" - Amended Section 80.19(F) "Inspection and Approvals" — Amended Section 80.19(H) "Applications and Extensions" - Amended Section 80.19(1) "Permit denial" - Added Section 80.23 "Notice of violation, penalties" — Adopted and Section 80.25 "Connection to Electricity Supply" - Amended Section 80.27 "Inspectors qualifications" - Deleted Section 80.29 "Liability for Damages" — Deleted Section 80.35 "Effective date" — Amended lg Section: 15.24.005 California Electrical Code (2007 Edition), the National Electrical Code (NEC-2005 Edition) and Article 80 of the National Electrical Code (2005 Edition) - Adopted and amended The city council adopts and incorporates herein as the city electrical code, for the purpose of prescribing in the City Of National City, regulations governing the inspection of installations, investigation of fires caused by electrical installations, the review of constriction plans, drawings, and specifications for electrical systems, the desilm, alteration, modification, construction, maintenance, and testing of electrical systems and equipment, the regulation and control of electrical installations at special events including but not limited to exhibits, trade shows, amusement parks, and other similar special occupancies, in or on any building or structure, or outdoors on any premises or property, the 2007 California Electrical Code, Part 3, Title 24 of the California Code of Regulations, a portion of the California Building Standards Code, as defined in the California Health and Safety Code, Section 18901 et seq. and the Uniform Electrical Code, 2005 Edition for those provisions not included in the 2007 California Electrical Code, except as amended, deleted, or added by this chapter, of which copies of these codes have been and are now filed in the office of the Director of Building and Safety, and the same are adopted and incorporated as if fully set out at length in this chapter, and Porn -March 10-, 2008 the provisionsi thereof'shall be controlling within the city limitstci j. 15.24.010 Annex G, Administration and Enforcement — Adopted and amended ANNEX G, ADMINISTRATION and ENFORFORCEMEN'f, is adopted subject to the following additions, amendments and deletions contained in this Chapter. 15.24.15 Annex G, Section 80.13 (47)171— AddeelAmended Section 80.13 (4-7) of Annex G to the 2007 California Electrical Code is added as follows: 80.13 (4-7) Right of Entry.

This notice is dated January , 2008. 2 Staff Report on the adoption of the 2007 California Building Standards Commission Codes, the 2006 International Building Code, the 2006 Uniform Mechanical and Plumbing Codes, the 2005 National Electric Code and the 2006 International Fire Code This year the California Building Standards Commission chose to adopt the 2006 International Building Codc published by the International ('ode Council (I('C), as the model code, along with the 2006 Unitbrrn Mechanical and Plumbing Codes, published by the International Association of Plumbing and Mechanical Officials (IAPMO), the 2005 National Electric Code published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and the 2006 International Fire Code, published by ICC. California Building Code/International Building Code There are several significant changes brought about by these new codes, which include the change in determination of seismic zones. The past code established four seismic zones within the State of California, of which, the most restrictive zone 4 covered all of San Diego County. This dictated specific design requirements for construction_ The new code adopts six seismic areas, A, B, (', D, E and F and makes the design requirements more site specific which may lower some design criteria which in turn may reduce some of the costs of construction. This change allows a larger pallet of design criteria for the architects, engineers and designers; however, it requires the inclusion of a soils report for nearly all projects that involve the expansion of existing buildings or the construction of new buildings. National City is expected to be mainly in seismic arca D due to prevailing soil conditions. A significant change to the Wood chapter (Chapter 23), of the IBC changes the separation from wood to earth, including wood sheathing from 6" to 8", unless it is naturally durable (e.g. redwood) or is preservative treated wood. Another change to the codes involves the use of the torn Authority Having Jurisdiction in place of Building Official. This change eliminates the requirement to change the position designation for other department heads. This is particularly appropriate for the City Of National City in view of the fact that we currently do not have a Building Official. The AH1 is currently the Acting Director of Building and Safety. In the current code, the use of 5/8" anchor bolts with 2" x 2" x 3/16" washers was dictated by the fact that San Diego County was in seismic zone 4. With the new seismic area designations, some design criteria may again allow the use of %" anchor bolts under some conditions, to be determined by the designer of the project. The size of the anchor bolt washers, however has changed to 3" x 3" x 3/16" with a diagonal slot. The slot is to permit centering of the washer on the sill plates even though the anchor bolts may be slightly off center. With the new code, Appendix 1, Patio Covers, the installation of glass windows is now permitted, except these glazed walls may not interfere with any openings which serve as emergency egress or rescue openings, such as bedroom windows. The code has changed with regard to both Tight and ventilation requirements and emergency egress from the first floor of a dwelling. The required light is now 8% of the floor area of the room served, vise the current 10%, and the ventilation has been accordingly reduced from 5% to 4%. Where the current code requires a minimum of 5.7 square feet of net clear opening for an emergency egress window, the new code requires only 5 square feet for bedroom windows on the first floor. Above the first floor, the 5.7 square feet of opening is still required. The other change to this egress requirement is that, instead of the maximum sill height being 44" above the floor, now the bottom of the clear opening is to he a maximum of 44" above the floor which will necessitate the lowering of the window Naming to account for the actual window frames. We have added a provision to each of the codes regarding the extension of permits. This added provision is designed to recognize the fact that National City supports the service men and women who are a vital part of our community. The adoptive ordinance section of each of the codes has a provision allowing the extension of permits for at least six months after the return of personnel who have been deployed to a foreign country. California Plumbing Code/Uniform Plumbing Code A major change to the Plumbing Code occurred with the allowance of CPVC piping for both hot and cold -water distribution in residential buildings. Its approval places requirements and restrictions for its use and installation on the contractor/installer and requires certification from contractors and sub -contractors with respect to worker safety. The use of this material as well as PEX products was not adopted in the previous code, and PEX is still not and accepted material. California Mechanical Code/Uniform Mechanical Code The Mechanical Code contains numerous editorial changes including an expanded list of definitions to clarify some of these changes. Chapter 5 contains numerous changes regarding venting. Chapters 3, 4, 7,and 9 contain changes which may be considered moderate in nature regarding fuel gas connections, combustion air and equipment installation. None of the changes appear to have significant impact. California Electric Code/National Electric Code The National Electric Code contains a number of changes that, for the most part, are minor and technical. A significant change that will affect us is the increased requirements regarding pool bonding measures. The new code extends the bonding grid 4 of the pool to include the concrete decking, to a maximum of three feet from the pool edge that will require the decking to contain reinforcement in the form of a steel grid system which is to be bonded to the steel within the pool shell. Most attic other changes to the NEC are, again, editorial in nature. California Fire Code/International Fire Code There have been multiple Articles and Sections, which have received language revisions. These revisions address issues as simplistic as condensing the information and language clean up, to addressing new standards being utilized. The following are a few changes, which have occurred, in the Fire Code: Chapter 9, section 903 has expanded the requirements for automatic fire sprinkler system, encompassing areas that previously were only covered within the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standards. A few of the areas now addressed are the requirements of fire sprinklers in rubbish and linen chutes used in multiple story buildings. Chapter 9, section 909 now addresses the need and use of smoke control systems within covered mall occupancies. Smoke systems provide for the tenable environment for the evacuation and or relocation of occupants. Smoke control systems are designed to maintain the smoke level within the occupancy at a level high enough to provide for clear air at the pedestrian level. Chapter 47, now further addresses requirements for Wildland-Urban interface Fire areas. The mitigation of conditions where a wildfire burning in vegetative fuels may readily transmit fire to buildings and threaten to destroy Iifc, overwhelm fire suppression capabilities, or result in large property losses shall comply with this chapter. Appendix I) Fire "Apparatus Access Roads" has increased its standards to reflect the ever -changing weight, design and dimensions of new fire apparatus. Approved fire apparatus access roads shall be provided for every facility, building or portion of a building hereafter constructed or moved into or within the jurisdiction. These sections will address but not limited too, turning radius, dead- ends, grade, road width etc. 5 Section 15.75.010 Chapter 15.75 CALIFORNIA ENERGY CODE* California Energy Code — Adopted The city council adopts and incorporates herein, for the purpose of prescribing regulations for the conservation of energy, the 2007 California Energy Code, California Code of Regulations Title 24, Part 6. Except as otherwise provided by this Chapter, all construction of buildings where energy will be utilized shall be in conformance with the 2007 California Energy Code.

Pursuant to Government Code sections 50022.2 through 50022.4 and 6066, these codes may he adopted by reference after the public hearing. 1 Copies of the Codes and adopting ordinances have been tiled with the City Clerk and are available for inspection from the date of the first reading through the date of the public hearing on February 19, 2008. The provisions of Government Code sections 25124 and 36933 providing for publication of ordinances are being complied with. The ordinances will he given a second and final reading on February 19, 2008, and may be adopted at the Council Meeting of Febniary 19, 2008. This notice is dated January _, 2008. 2 Staff Report on the adoption of the 2007 California Building Standards Commission Codes, the 2006 International Building Code, the 2006 Uniform Mechanical and Plumbing ('odes, the 2005 National Electric Code and the 2006 International Fire Code This year the California Building Standards Commission chose to adopt the 2006 International Building Code published by the International ('ode Council (ICC), as the model code, along with the 2006 Uniform Mechanical and Plumbing Codes, published by the International Association of Plumbing and Mechanical Officials (IAPMO), the 2005 National Electric Code published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and the 2006 international Fire Code, published by ICC_ California Building Code/International Building Code There are several significant changes brought about by these new codes, which include the change in determination of seismic zones. The past code established four seismic zones within the State of California, of which, the most restrictive zone 4 covered all of San Diego County. This dictated specific design requirements for construction. The new code adopts six seismic areas, A, H, C, D, E and F and makes the design requirements more site specific which may lower some design criteria which in turn may reduce some of the costs of construction. This change allows a larger pallet of design criteria for the architects, engineers and designers; however, it requires the inclusion ofa soils report for nearly all projects that involve the expansion of existing buildings or the construction of new buildings. National City is expected to he inainly in seismic arca D due to prevailing soil conditions. A significant change to the Wood chapter (Chapter 23), of the iBC changes the separation from wood to earth, including wood sheathing from 6" to 8", unless itis naturally durable (e.g. redwood) or is preservative treated wood. Another change to the codes involves the use of the term Authority Having Jurisdiction in place of Building Official. This change eliminates the requirement to change the position designation for other department heads. This is particularly appropriate for the City Of National City in view of the fact that we currently do not have a Building Official. The AIIJ is currently the Acting Director of Building and Safety. In the current code, the use of 5/8" anchor bolts with 2" x 2" x 3/1.6" washers was dictated by the fact that San Diego County was in seismic zone 4. With the new seismic area designations, some design criteria may again allow the use of 'A" anchor bolts under some conditions, to he determined by the designer of the project. The size of the anchor bolt washers, however has changed to 3" x 3" x 3/16" with a diagonal slot. The slot is to permit centering of the washer on the sill plates even though the anchor bolts may be slightly off center. 3 With the new code, Appendix 1, Patio Covers, the installation of glass windows is now pcnnittcd, except these glazed walls may not interfere with any openings which serve as emergency egress or rescue openings, such as bedroom windows. The code has changed with regard to both Tight and ventilation requirements and emergency egress from the first floor of a dwelling. 'I'he required light is now 8% of the floor area of the room served, vise the current 10%, and the ventilation has been accordingly reduced from 5% to 4%. Where the current code requires a minimum of 5.7 square feet of net clear opening for an emergency egress window, the new code requires only 5 square feet for bedroom windows on the first floor. Above the first floor, the 5.7 square feet of opening is still required. The other change to this egress requirement is that, instead of the maximum sill height being 44" above the floor, now the bottom of the clear _opening is to be a maximum of 44" above the floor which will necessitate the lowering of the window framing to account for the actual window frames. We have added a provision to each of the codes regarding the extension of permits. This added provision is designed to recognize the tact that National City supports the service men and women who are a vital part of our community. The adoptive ordinance section of each of the codes has a provision allowing the extension of permits for at least six months after the return of personnel who have been deployed to a foreign country. California Plumbing Code/Uniform Plumbing Code A major change to the Plumbing Code occurred with the allowance of CPVC piping for both hot and cold -water distribution in residential buildings. Its approval places requirements and restrictions for its use and installation on the contractor/installer and requires certification from contractors and sub -contractors with respect to worker safety. The use of this material as well as PEX products was not adopted in the previous code, and PEX is still not and accepted material. California Mechanical Code/Uniform Mechanical Code The Mechanical Code contains numerous editorial changes including an expanded list of definitions to clarify some of these changes. Chapter 5 contains numerous changes regarding venting. Chapters 3, 4, 7,and 9 contain changes which may be considered moderate in nature regarding fuel gas connections, combustion air and equipment installation. None of the changes appear to have significant impact. California Electric Code/National Electric Code The National Electric Code contains a number of changes that, for the most part, are minor and technical. A significant change that will affect us is the increased requirements regarding pool bonding measures. The new code extends the bonding grid of the pool to include the concrete decking, to a maximum of three feet from the pool edge that will require the decking to contain reinforcement in the form of a steel grid system which is to he bonded to the steel within the pool shell. Most of the other changes to the NEC are, again, editorial in nature. California Fire Code/International Fire Code There have been multiple Articles and Sections, which have received Language revisions. These revisions address issues as simplistic as condensing the information and language clean up, to addressing new standards being utilized. The following are a few changes, which have occurred, in the Fire Code: Chapter 9, section 903 has expanded the requirements for automatic fire sprinkler system, encompassing areas that previously were only covered within the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standards. A few of the areas now addressed are the requirements of fire sprinklers in rubbish and linen chutes used in multiple story buildings. Chapter 9, section 909 now addresses the need and use of smoke control systems within covered mall occupancies. Smoke systems provide for the tenable environment for the evacuation and or relocation of occupants. Smoke control systems are designed to maintain the smoke level within the occupancy at a level high enough to provide for clear air at the pedestrian level. Chapter 47, now further addresses requirements for Wildland-IJrhan Interface Fire areas. The mitigation of conditions where a wildfire burning in vegetative fuels may readily transmit fire to buildings and threaten to destroy life, overwhelm lire suppression capabilities, or result in large property losses shall comply with this chapter. Appendix D Fire "Apparatus Access Roads" has increased its standards to reflect the ever -changing weight, design and dimensions of new fire apparatus. Approved fire apparatus access roads shall he provided for every facility, building or portion of a building hereafter constructed or moved into or within the jurisdiction. These sections will address but not limited too, turning radius, dead- ends, grade, road width etc. ORDINANCE ORDINANCE NO 2008- 000 AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF NATIONAL CITY ADOPTING THE 2007 CALIFORNIA FIRE CODE, APPENDICES THERETO, AND NATIONAL FIRE PROTECTION ASSOCIATION STANDARDS, PRESCRIBING REGULATIONS GOVERNING CONDITIONS 1AZARDOUS TO LIFE AND PROPERTY FROM FIRE, HAZARDOUS MATERIALS OR EXPLOSION, PROVIDING FOR THE ISSUANCE OF PERMITS FOR HAZARDOUS USES OR OPERATIONS; AND, ESTABLISHING A FIRE PREVENTION BUREAU, PROVIDING OFFICERS FOR SUCH BUREAU AND DEFINING THEIR POWERS AND DUTIES; REPEALING ORDINANCE NO. 2002-2211 AND ALL OTHER ORDINANCES AND PARTS OF ORDINANCES IN CONFLICT WITH THIS CHAPTER, AND AMENDING CHAPTER 15.28 OF THE NATIONAL CITY MUNICIPAL CODE BE 1'I' ORDAINED by the City Council of the City of National City as follows: Section 1: The City Council of the City of National City hereby adopts the 2007 California Fire Code, the Intemational Fire Code 2007 Edition as amended by the State of California and the Appendices thereto, and the National Firc Protection Association Standards (most current edition) with the amendments set forth in Section 3 of this ordinance as the fire code for this city. Section 2: The City Council finds that the amendments being made in this Chapter 15.28 are reasonably necessary because of local climatic, geological, or topographical conditions: namely, that the age of structures, separation and density create and increased risk of conflagration meriting more stringent standards.

This notice is dated January , 2008. 2 Staff Report on the adoption of the 2007 California Building Standards Commission Codes, the 2006 International Building Code, the 2006 Uniform Mechanical and Plumbing Codes, the 2005 National Electric Code and the 2006 International Fire Code This year thc California Building Standards Commission chose to adopt the 2006 International Building ('ode published by the International Code Council (ICC), as the model code, along with the 2006 Uniform Mechanical and Plumbing Codes, published by the international Association of Plumbing and Mechanical Officials (IAPMO), the 20(15 National Electric (.'ode published by thc National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and the 2006 International Fire Code, published by ICC. California Building Code/International Building Code There are several significant changes brought about by these new codes, which include the change in determination of seismic zones. The past code established four seismic zones within the State of California, of which, the most restrictive zone 4 covered all of San Diego County. This dictated specific design requirements for construction. The new code adopts six seismic areas, A, B, C, I), F, and F and makes the design requirements more site specific which may lower some design criteria which in turn may reduce some of the costs of construction. This change allows a larger pallet of design criteria for the architects, engineers and designers; however, it requires the inclusion of a soils report for nearly all projects that involve the expansion of existing buildings or the construction of new buildings. National City is expected to he mainly in seismic area D due to prevailing soil conditions. A significant change to the Wood chapter (Chapter 23), of the iBC changes the separation from wood to earth, including wood sheathing from 6" to 8", unless it is naturally durable (e.g. redwood) or is preservative treated wood. Another change to the codes involves the use of the term Authority Having Jurisdiction in place of Building Official. This change eliminates the requirement to change the position designation for other department heads. This is particularly appropriate for the City Of National City in view of the fact that we currently do not have a Building Official. The AHJ is currently the Acting Director of Building and Safety. In the current code, the use of 5/8" anchor bolts with 2" x 2" x 3/16" washers was dictated by the fact that San Diego County was in seismic zone 4. With the new seismic area designations, some design criteria may again allow the use of V2" anchor bolts under some conditions, to be determined by the designer of the project. The size of the anchor bolt washers, however has changed to 3" x 3" x 3/16" with a diagonal slot. The slot is to permit centering of the washer on the sill plates even though the anchor bolts may be slightly off center. 3 With the new code, Appendix 1, Patio Covers, the installation of glass windows is now permitted, except these glazed walls may not interfere with any openings which serve as emergency egress or rescue openings, such as bedroom windows. The code has changed with regard to both light and ventilation requirements and emergency egress from the first floor of a dwelling. The required light is now 8% of the floor area of the room served, vise the current 10%, and the ventilation has been accordingly reduced from 5% to 4%. Where the current code requires a minimum of 5.7 square feet of net clear opening for an emergency egress window, the new code requires only 5 square feet for bedroom windows on the first floor. Above the first floor, the 5.7 square feet of opening is still required. The other change to this egress requirement is that, instead of the maximum sill height being 44" above the floor, now the bottom of the clear opening is to be a maximum of 44" above the floor which will necessitate the lowering of the window framing to account for the actual window frames. We have added a provision to each of the codes regarding the extension of permits. This added provision is designed to recognize the fact that National City supports the service men and women who are a vital part of our community. The adoptive ordinance section of each of the codes has a provision allowing the extension of permits for at least six months after the return of personnel who have been deployed to a foreign country. California Plumbing Code/Uniform Plumbing Code A major change to the Plumbing Code occurred with the allowance of CPVC piping for both hot and cold -water distribution in residential buildings. its approval places requirements and restrictions for its use and installation on the contractor/installer and requires certification from contractors and sub -contractors with respect to worker safety. The use of this material as well as PEX products was not adopted in the previous code, and PEX is still not and accepted material. California Mechanical Code/Uniform Mechanical Code The Mechanical Code contains numerous editorial changes including an expanded list of definitions to clarify some of these changes. Chapter 5 contains numerous changes regarding venting. Chapters 3, 4, 7,and 9 contain changes which may be considered moderate in nature regarding fuel gas connections, combustion air and equipment installation. None of the changes appear to have significant impact. California Electric Code/National Electric Code The National Electric Code contains a number of changes that, for the most part, are minor and technical. A significant change that will affect us is the increased requirements regarding pool bonding measures. The new code extends the bonding grid of the pool to include the concrete decking, to a maximum of three feet from the pool edge that will require the decking to contain reinforcement in the form of a steel grid system which is to be bonded to the steel within the pool shell. Most of the other changes to the NEC are, again, editorial in nature. California Fire Code/International Fire Code There have been multiple Articles and Sections, which have received language revisions. "These revisions address issues as simplistic as condensing the information and language clean up, to addressing new standards being utilized. The following arc a few changes, which have occurred, in the Fire Code: Chapter 9, section 903 has expanded the requirements for automatic fire sprinkler system, encompassing areas that previously were only covered within the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standards. A few of the areas now addressed are the requirements of fire sprinklers in nibbish and linen chutes used in multiple story buildings. Chapter 9, section 909 now addresses the need and use of smoke control systems within covered mall occupancies. Smoke systems provide for the tenable environment fur the evacuation and or relocation of occupants. Smoke control systems are designed to maintain the smoke level within the occupancy at a level high enough to provide for clear air at the pedestrian level. Chapter 47, now further addresses requirements for Wildland-Urban interlace Fire areas. The mitigation of conditions where a wildfire burning in vegetative fuels may readily transmit fire to buildings and threaten to destroy life, overwhelm tire suppression capabilities, or result in large property losses shall comply with this chapter. Appendix 1) Fire "Apparatus Access Roads" has increased its standards to reflect the ever -changing weight, design and dimensions of new fire apparatus. Approved tire apparatus access roads shall he provided for every facility, huilding or portion of a huilding hereafter constructed or moved into or within the jurisdiction. 'These sections will address but not limited too, turning radius, dead- ends, grade, road width etc. Chapter 15.14 CALIFORNIA MECHANICAL CODE* Sections: 15.14.005 California Mechanical Code (2007 Edition) — Adopted 15.14.010 Chapter 1, ADMINISTRATION — Deleted 15.14.015 Appendix Chapter 1 —ADMINISTRATION - Adopted and Amended 15.14.020 Appendix Chapter 1 Section 108 3 — "Right of Entry" — Amended 15.14.025 Appendix Chapter 1 Section 110.0 — "Board of Appeals" — Amended 1.5.14.030 Appendix Chapter 1 Section 111.0 — "Violations" — Amended 15.14.035 Appendix Chapter 1 Section 114.4 - "Expiration"- Amended 15.14.040 Appendix Chapter 1 Section 114.6 — "Permit denial" — Added 15.14.045 Appendix Chapter 1 Section 115.0-1 — "Fees General" — Amended 15.14.0511 Appendix Chapter 1 Section 115.2 — "Permit Fees" — Amended 15.14.055 Appendix Chanter 1 Section 115.3 - "Plan Review Fees — Paragraph 3 Amended 15.14.050060 Appendix Chapter 1 Section 115.4 —"Expiration of Plan Review "— Amended 15.14.455065 Appendix Chapter 1 Section 116.6 — "Re -inspections" — Amended 15.14.060070 Appendix Chapter 1 Table 1-1— "Mechanical Permit Fees" — Deleted 1.5.14 _065075 Appendix Chapters A, B, C and D — Adopted Section 15.14.005 California Mechanical Code (2007 Edition) - Adopted The city council adopts, and incorporates herein as the city mechanical code, for the purpose of prescribing in the City Of National City, regulations governing the erection, installation, alteration, repair, relocation, replacement, addition to, use or maintenance of any heating, ventilating, cooling, refrigeration systems, incinerators or other miscellaneous heat producing appliances, in or on any building or structure or outdoors on any premises or property, the 2007 California Mechanical Code, California (:ode of Regulations Title 24, Part 4, and the Uniform Mechanical Code, 2006 Edition for those provisions not included in the California Mechanical Code, except such portions as are deleted, added, or amendexi by this chapter, of which a copy of both have been and are now filed in the office of the Director of Building and Safety, and the same are adopted and incorporated as if fully set out at length in this chapter, and from March 10, 2008, the provisions shall be controlling within the city limits. 15.14.010 Chapter 1, ADMINISTRATION — Deleted Chapter I, ADMINISTRATION of the California Mechanical Code is deleted with the exception of the California Chapter 1-General Code Provisions Matrix Adoption Table which includes those sections mandated to be enforced by the Authority Having Jurisdiction. 15.14.015 Appendix Chapter 1, Administration — Adopted as amended Appendix Chapter 1, ADMINISTRATION is adopted subject to the additions, amendments, and deletions provided in this Chapter. 15.14.020 Appendix Chapter 1 Section 108.3 "Right of Entry" — Amended Section 108.3 of the California Mechanical Code is amended to read: 108.3.

The ordinances will be given a second and final reading on February 19, 2008, and may he adopted at the Council Meeting ofFehniary 19, 2008. This notice is dated January `, 2008. 2 Staff Report on the adoption of the 2007 California Building Standards Commission Codes, the 2006 lnteniational Building Code, the 2006 Uniform Mechanical and Plumbing Codes, the 2005 National Electric Code and the 2006 international Fire Code This year the California Building Standards Commission chose to adopt the 2006 International Building Code published by the international Code Council (ICC), as the model code, along with the 2006 Uniform Mechanical and Plumbing Codes, published by the International Association of Plumbing and Mechanical Officials (iAPMO), the 2005 National Electric Code published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and the 2006 International Fire Code, published by ICC. California Building Code/International Building Code There are several significant changes brought about by these new codes, which include the change in determination of seismic zones. The past code established four seismic zones within the State of California, of which, the most restrictive zone 4 covered all of San Diego County. This dictated specific design requirements for construction. The new code adopts six seismic areas, A, B, C, D, E and F and makes the design requirements more site specific which may lower some design criteria which in tuni may reduce some of the costs of construction. This change allows a larger pallet of design criteria for the architects, engineers and designers; however, it requires the inclusion of a soils report for nearly all projects that involve the expansion of existing buildings or the constniction of new buildings. National City is expected to he mainly in seismic area U due to prevailing soil conditions. A significant change to the Wood chapter (Chapter 23), of the IBC changes the separation from wood to earth, including wood sheathing from 6" to 8", unless it is naturally durable (e.g. redwood) or is preservative treated wood. Another change to the codes involves the use of the tenn Authority Having Jurisdiction in place of Building Official. This change eliminates the requirement to change the position designation for other department heads. This is particularly appropriate for the City Of National City in view of the fact that we currently do not have a Building Official. The AHJ is currently the Acting Director of Building and Safety. In the current code, the use of 5/8" anchor bolts with 2" x 2" x 3/16" washers was dictated by the fact that San Diego County was in seismic zone 4. With the new seismic area designations, some design criteria may again allow the use of'W' anchor bolts under some conditions, to be determined by the designer of the project. The size of the anchor bolt washers, however has changed to 3" x 3" x 3/16" with a diagonal slot. The slot is to permit centering of the washer on the sill plates even though the anchor bolts may be slightly off center. 3 With the new code, Appendix 1, Patio Covers, the installation of glass windows is now permitted, except these glazed walls may not interfere with any openings which serve as emergency egress or rescue openings, such as bedroom windows. The code has changed with regard to both light and ventilation requirements and emergency egress from the first floor of a dwelling. The required light is now 8% of the floor area of the room served, vise the current 10%, and the ventilation has been accordingly reduced from 5% to 4%. Where the current code requires a minimum of 5.7 square feet of net clear opening for an emergency egress window, the new code requires only 5 square feet for bedroom windows on the first floor. Above the first floor, the 5.7 square feet of opening is still required. The other change to this egress requirement is that, instead of the maximum sill height being 44" above the floor, now the bottom of the clear opening is to be a maximum of 44" above the floor which will necessitate the lowering of the window framing to account for the actual window frames. We have added a provision to each of the codes regarding the extension of permits. This added provision is designed to recognize the fact that National City supports the service men and women who are a vital part of our community. The adoptive ordinance section of each of the codes has a provision allowing the extension of permits for at least six months after the return of personnel who have been deployed to a foreign country. California Plumbing Code/Uniform Plumbing Code A major change to the Plumbing Code occurred with the allowance of CPVC piping for both hot and cold -water distribution in residential buildings. Its approval places requirements and restrictions for its use and installation on the contractor/installer and requires certification from contractors and sub -contractors with respect to worker safety. The use of this material as well as PEX products was not adopted in the previous code, and PEX is still not and accepted material. California Mechanical Code/Uniform Mechanical Code The Mechanical Code contains numerous editorial changes including an expanded list of definitions to clarify some of these changes. Chapter 5 contains numerous changes regarding venting. Chapters 3, 4, 7,and 9 contain changes which may be considered moderate in nature regarding fuel gas connections, combustion air and equipment installation. None of the changes appear to have significant impact. California Electric Code/National Electric Code The National Electric Code contains a number of changes that, for the most part, arc minor and technical. A significant change that will affect us is the increased requirements regarding pool bonding measures. The new code extends the bonding grid of the pool to include the concrete decking, to a maximum of three feet from the pool edge that will require the decking to contain reinforcement in the form of a steel grid system which is to be bonded to the steel within the pool shell. Most of the other changes to the NEC are, again, editorial in nature. California Fire Code/international Fire Code There have been multiple Articles and Sections, which have received language revisions. These revisions address issues as simplistic as condensing the information and language clean up, to addressing new standards being utilized. The following are a few changes, which have occurred, in the Fire Code: Chapter 9, section 903 has expanded the requirements for automatic fire sprinkler system, encompassing areas that previously were only covered within the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standards. A few of the areas now addressed are the requirements of fire sprinklers in rubbish and linen chute used in multiple story buildings. Chapter 9, section 909 now addresses the need and use of smoke control systems within covered mall occupancies. Smoke systems provide for the tenable environment for the evacuation and or relocation of occupants. Smoke control systems are designed to maintain the smoke level within the occupancy at a level high enough to provide for clear air at the pedestrian level. Chapter 47, now further addresses requirements for Wildland-Urban Interface Fire areas. The mitigation of conditions where a wildfire burning in vegetative fuels may readily transmit fire to buildings and threaten to destroy life, overwhelm fire suppression capabilities, or result in large property losses shall comply with this chapter. Appendix D Fire "Apparatus Access Roads" has increased its standards to reflect the ever -changing weight, design and dimensions of new fire apparatus. Approved fire apparatus access roads shall be provided for every facility, building or portion of a building hereafter constructed or moved into or within the jurisdiction. These sections will address but not limited too, turning radius, dead- ends, grade, road width etc. Chapter 15.20 CALIFORNIA PLUMBING CODE* Sections: 15.20.005 California Plumbing Code (2007 Edition) — Adopted 15.20.01(1 Chapter 1, Administration — Deleted 15.20.1115 Appendix Chapter 1 — Adopted and Amended 15.20.020 Appendix Chapter 1 Section 102.2.2 "Right of entry" - Amended 15.20.025 Appendix Chapter 1 Section 1023.2 "Penalties" - Amended 15.20.030 Appendix Chapter 1 Section 103.3.4 "Expiration" - Amended 15.20.035 Appendix Chapter 1 Section 1033.6 "Permit denial" - Added 15.20.040 Appendix Chapter 1 Section 103.4.1 "Permit fees" — Amended 15.20.45 Appendix C....plcr , Section-403 4 20 5(? 15.20.55045 Appendix Chapter 1 Section 103.4.2 "Plan review fees" — Amended 15.20_60050 Appendix Chapter 1 Section 103.5.6 "Re -inspections" - Amended 15.20. 65055 Board" — Appendix Chapter 1 Section 103.10 "Advisory and Appeals Added 15.20_70060 Appendix Chapter 1 Table 1-1 Plumbing Permit Fees — Deleted 15.20.75065 Table No. 4.1 "Minimum plumbing facilities" — Not adopted 15.20_80070 Table No. 2902.1 of the 2006 International Building Code (IBC) - Adopted Section: 15.20.05 California Plumbing Code Adopted The city council adopts, and incorporates herein as the city plumbing code, except as amended, deleted, or added by this chapter, for the purpose of prescribing in the City Of National City, regulations governing the erection, installation, alteration, repair, relocation, replacement, addition to, use or maintenance of any plumbing, gas, or drainage piping and systems or water heating or treating equipment, in or on any building or structure or outdoors on any premises or property, the 2007 California Plumbing Code, California Code of Regulations Title 24, Part 4, the Uniform Plumbing Code, 2006 Edition for those provisions not included in the 2007 California Plumbing Codc, and Table 2902.1 of the international Building Code, 2006 Edition, of which a copy of all codes have been and are now tiled in the office of the Director of Building and Safety, and the same arc adopted and incorporated as it' fully set torth in this chapter, and from March 10, 2008, the provisions shall he controlling within the city limits. 15.20.10 Administration — Deleted Chapter I, ADMINISTRATION of the 2007 California Plumbing Codc is deleted with the exception of the California Matrix Adoption Table which includes those sections mandated to be enforced by the Authority Having Jurisdiction. 15.20.15 Appendix Chapter 1 — Adopted and amended Appendix Chapter', ADMINISTRATION is adopted subject to the additions, amendments, and deletions contained in this Chapter. 15.20.20 Appendix Chapter 1 Section 102.2.2 Right of Entry — Amended Section 102.2.2 of the 2007 California Plumbing Code is amended to read: 102.2.2 102.2.2 Right of Entry.

BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES OR BMPS - means schedules of activities, pollution treatment practices or devices, prohibitions of practices, general good housekeeping practices, pollution prevention and educational practices, maintenance procedures, and other management practices or devices to prevent or reduce the discharge of pollutants directly or indirectly to Storm Water, Receiving Waters, or the Storm Water Conveyance System. Best Management Practices also include but are not limited to treatment practices, operating procedures, and practices to control site runoff, spillage or leaks, sludge or water disposal, or drainage from raw materials storage. Best Management Practices may include any type of pollution prevention and pollution control measure that can help to achieve compliance with this Chapter. Best Management Practices may include any type of pollution prevention and pollution control measure, which the City Engineer finds, is necessary to reduce pollutants entering the Waters of the State to the Maximum Extent Practicable. BUILDING OFFICIAL - Means the City Engineer. 2 CIVIL ENGINEER - Is a professional engineer registered in the state to practice in the field of civil works. He or she is the person directly responsible for the project design, plan certification, and construction supervision. DRAINAGE PLAN - A plan which shows existing and proposed site drainage within a property that is to be developed or rough graded. The drainage plan shall be prepared by a Registered Civil Engineer, an Architect, or other qualified and licensed professionals, and shall comply with the standards and requirements of the City Engineer. If, for a given development, no grading is proposed, or the earthwork quantity involved in the grading is below the established limit of this ordinance, and for which a grading plan is not required, then as a minimum, a drainage plan shall be submitted for the development. EROSION CONTROL PLAN - is a plan prepared under the direction of and signed by a Civil Engineer competent in the preparation of such plans and knowledgeable about current erosion control methods. The plan shall provide for protection of exposed soils, prevention of discharge of sediment, and desiltation of runoff at frequent intervals along flowage areas, at entrances to storm drains, at entrances to streets and driveways, and at the exit of the area being graded. EROSION CONTROL SYSTEM - means any combinations of desilting facilities, retarding basins, flow decelerates, and/or erosion protection (including effective planning and the maintenance thereof) to protect the project site, adjacent private property, watercourses, public facilities, graded improvements, existing natural facilities, archaeological artifacts, and relieve waters of suspended sediments or debris prior to discharge from the site. GRADE - Means the vertical location of the ground surface, in relation to a National City benchmark elevation. MAXIMUM EXTENT PRACTICABLE OR MEP - means the standard established by Congress in Clean Water Act section 402(p)(3)(B)(iii) that municipal dischargers of Storm Water must meet. MEP is an acceptability standard for Best Management Practices based on a level of pollutant reduction that can be achieved by the most effective set of BMPs that can be implemented and still remain practicable; MEP generally emphasizes pollution prevention and source control BMPs as the first line of defense in combination with treatment methods as a backup. PERMITTEE - means any person, corporation, partnership, limited liability company, non-profit entity, joint venture, association of any type, public entity or any other legal entity, which submits an application for a permit pursuant to this Chapter. POLLUTANT - means any agent that may cause or contribute to the degradation of water quality, including, but not limited to, Earth Materials.

Urban streams used in this manner are part of the Storm Water Conveyance System regardless of whether they are natural, man-made, or partially modified features. WATERS OF THE STATE means any water, surface or underground, including saline waters within the boundaries of Califomia. The definition of the "Waters of the State" is broader than that for the "Waters of the United States" in that all water in the State is considered to be a "Waters of the State" regardless of circumstances or condition. Under this definition, a municipal storm sewer system (MS4) is always considered to be a "Waters of the State". [California Water Code Section 13050 (e)]. WATERS OF THE UNITED STATES means water subject to the regulatory jurisdiction of the United States under the Federal Clean Water Act and applicable case law. In general, this includes "navigable" waters, waters tributary to "navigable" waters, and adjacent wetlands. [40 Code of Federal Regulations section 122.2.]" 15.70.025 Hazards and Safety Precautions.

Pollutants and Associated Particle Sizes 21 The municipal storm water National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit (Order No. R9-2007-0001, NPDES No. CAS0108758, hereinafter referred to as "Municipal Permit") issued to San Diego County, the Port of San Diego, San Diego County Regional Airport Authority, and 18 cities (Copermittees) by the San Diego Regional Water Quality Control Board (Regional Board) on .lanuary 24, 2007, requires the development and implementation of a program addressing urban runoff pollution issues in development planning for public and private projects. The requirement to implement a program for development planning is based on federal and state statutes including: Section 402 (p) of the Clean Water Act, Section 6217 of the Coastal Zone Act Reauthorization Amendments of 1990 ("CZARA"), and the California Water Code. The (lean Water Act amendments of 1987 established a framework for regulating urban runoff discharges from municipal, industrial, and construction activities under the NPDES program. The Municipal Permit requires the implementation of a Jurisdictional Urban Runoff Management Program (IJRMP). The primary objectives of the Jurisdictional EIRMP requirements are to: 1. Insure that discharges from municipal urban runoff conveyance systems do not cause or contribute to a violation of water quality standards; 2. Effectively prohibit non -storm water discharges in urban runoff; and 3. Reduce the discharge of pollutants from urban runoff conveyance systems to the Maximum Extent Practicable (MEP statutory standard). The Model Standard Urban Storm Water Mitigation Plan (SUSMP) was collectively developed by the Copermitties to address post -construction urban runoff pollution from new development and redevelopment projects that fall under "priority project" categories. The goal of the Model SUSMP is to develop and implement practicable policies to ensure to the maximum extent practicable that development does not increase pollutant loads from a project site and considers urban runoff flow rates, velocities, and durations. This goal may he achieved through site- specilic controls and/or drainage area -based or shared structural treatment controls. The Model SUSMP identifies appropriate Best Management Practices (BMPs) for certain designated project types to achieve this goal. The City ofNational City's (City) Sl1SMP has been reviewed and approved by the (.'ity ('ouncil in a public process. The City will approve SUSMP project plan(s) as part of the development plan approval process C Dorr:mrnts 3n4 1..,1 Snilm•: Trmmrnn Intemn Iiia OLK-9-t`C' SltS�IP CO(claw wp)) Joe Pagel for discretionary projects, and prior to issuing permits for ministerial projects. To allow flexibility in meeting SUSMP design standards, structural treatment control BMPs may be located on or off -site, used singly or in combination, or shared by multiple developments, provided certain conditions are met. All new development and significant redevelopment projects that fall into one of the following "Priority Project" categories are subject to these SUSMP requirements, subject to the lawful prior approval provisions of the Municipal Permit. In the instance where a project feature, such as a parking lot, falls into a Priority Project category, the entire project footprint is subject to these SUSMP requirements. These "Priority Project Categories" are: ❑ Residential development of 10 units or more o Commercial development greater than one acre u Industrial development greater than one acre o Automotive repair shops o Restaurants u Ilillside development greater than 5,000 square feet o Projects discharging to receiving waters within environmentally sensitive areas ❑ Parking Lots => 5,000 square feet of impervious surface or with > 15 parking spaces and potentially exposed to urban runoff u Streets, roads, highways, and freeways which would create a new paved surface that is 5,000 square feet or greater of impervious surface. u Retail gasoline outlets 5,000 square feet or more or with a projected Average Daily Traffic (ADT) of 100 or more vehicles per day Limited Exclusion: "Trenching and resurfacing work associated with utility projects are not considered priority projects such as resurfacing and reconfiguring surface parking lots and existing roadways, new sidewalk construction, pedestrian ramps, or hike lane on existing roads, and routine replacement of damage pavement, such as pothole repair. Parking lots, buildings and other structures associated with utility projects are subject to SUSMP requirements if one or more of the criteria for the above categories are met. ❑ "Attached Residential Development," means any development that provides residential units that share an interior/exterior wall. This category includes, but is not limited to: dormitories, condominiums and apartments. • "Automotive Repair Shop" means a facility that is categorized in any one of the following Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) codes: 5013, 5014, 5541, 7532-7534, or 7536- 7539. • ❑ "Commercial Development" means any development on private land that is not exclusively industrial or residential uses. The category includes, but is not limited to: mini -malls and other business complexes, shopping malls, hotels, office buildings, public Page 2 warehouses, hospitals, laboratories and other medical facilities, educational institutions, recreational facilities, plant nurseries, car wash facilities, and other light industrial complexes. u "Commercial Development greater than one acre'' means any commercial development that results in the disturbance of one acre or more of land. ❑ "Detached Residential Development," means any development that provides freestanding residential units. This category includes, but is not limited to: detached homes, such as single-family homes and detached condominiums. u "Directly Connected Impervious Area (DCIA)" means the area covered by a building, impermeable pavement, and/or other impervious surfaces, which drains directly into the storm drain without first flowing across permeable.vegetated land area (e.g., lawns). u "Environmentally Sensitive Areas" means areas that include, but are not limited to, all Clean Water Act 303(d) impaired water bodies ("303[d] water bodies"); areas designated as an "Area of Special Biological Significance" (ASBS) by the State Water Resources Control Board (Water Quality Control Plan for the. San Diego Basin (1994) and amendments); water bodies designated as having a RARE beneficial use by the State Water Resources Control Hoard (Water Quality Control Plan for the San Diego Basin (1994) and amendments), or areas designated as preserves or their equivalent under the Multiple Species Conservation Program (MSCP) within the Cities and County of San Diego. The limits of Areas of Special Biological Sipificance arc those defined in the Water Quality Control Plan for the San Diego Basin (1994 and amendments). Environmentally sensitive area is defined for the purposes of implementing SUSMP requirements, and does not replace or supplement other environmental resource -based terms, such as "Environmentally Sensitive Lands," employed by Copermittees in their land development review processes. As appropriate, National City will distinguish between environmentally sensitive arca and other similar terms in its SUSMP. ❑ "Hillside" means lands that have a natural gradient of 25 percent (4 feet of horizontal distance for every 1 foot of vertical distance) or greater and a minimum elevation differential of 50 feet, or a natural gradient of 200 percent (1 foot of horizontal distance for every 2 feet of vertical distance) or greater and a minimum elevation differential of 10 feet. u "Hillside development greater than 5,000 square feet" means any development that would create more than 5,000 square feet of impervious surfaces in hillsides with known erosive soil conditions. ❑ "Hydromodification" means the change in the natural hydrologic processes and runoff characteristics (i.e. interception, infiltration, overland flow, interflow and groundwater flow) caused by urbanization or other land use changes that result in increased stream flows and changes in sediment transport. in addition, alternation of stream and river channels, installation (Adams and water impoundments, and excessive streambank and Page 3 shoreline erosion are also considered hydromodification, due to their disruption of natural watershed hydrologic processes. u "Industrial development greater than one acre" means development of industrial facilities that results in the disturbance of over one acre of land. Industrial facilities include those defined at 40 CFR 122.26(b)(14), including those subject to the General Industrial Permit or other individual NPDES permit, operating and closed landfills, facilities subject to SARA Title III, and hazardous waste treatment, disposal, storage and recovery facilities. Examples of industrial facilities includes manufacturing plants, food processing plants, metal working facilities, printing plants, and fleet storage areas (bus, truck, etc.). u "Infiltration" means the downward entry of water into the surface of the soil. ❑ "integrated Management Practice (IMP)" means a facility (BMP) that provides small- scale treatment, retention, or detention and is integrated into site layout, landscaping, and drainage design. u "Low Impact Development (LID)" means a storm water management and land development strategy that emphasizes conservation and the use of on -site natural features integrated with engineered, small-scale hydrologic controls to more closely reflect pre - development hydrologic features. ❑ "Maximum Extent Practicable (MEP)" means the technology -based standard established by Congress in the Clean Water Act 402(p)(3)(B)(iii) that municipal dischargers of urban runoff must meet. MEP generally emphasizes pollution prevention and source control BMPs primarily (as the first line of defense) in combination with treatment methods serving as a backup (additional lines of defense). ❑ "Natural drainage" means a natural swale or topographic depression which gathers and/or conveys runoff to a permanent or intermittent watercourse or waterbody. o "New Development" means land disturbing activities; surface grading for structural development, including -construction or installation of a building or structure, the creation of impervious surfaces; and land subdivision. u "Parking Lot" means land area or facility for the temporary parking or storage of motor vehicles used personally, or for business or commerce. ❑ "Projects Discharging to Receiving Waters within Environmentally Sensitive Areas" means all development and significant redevelopment that would create 2,500 square feet of impervious surfaces or increase the area of imperviousness of a project site to 10% or more of its naturally occurring condition, and is located within or directly adjacent to (where any portion of the project footprint is located within 200 feet of the environmentally sensitive area) an environmentally sensitive area (where discharges from the development or redevelopment will enter receiving waters within the environmentally sensitive arca) or discharges to a receiving water within an environmentally sensitive area Page 4 without mixing with flows from adjacent lands (where the project footprint is located more than 200 feet from the environmentally sensitive area). ❑ "Project Footprint" means the limits of all grading and ground disturbance, including landscaping, associated with a project. ❑ "Receiving Waters" means surface bodies of water, which directly or indirectly receive discharges from urban runoff conveyance systems, including naturally occurring wetlands, streams (perennial, intermittent, and ephemeral [exhibiting bed, bank, and ordinary high water markfl, creeks, rivers, reservoirs, lakes, lagoons, estuaries, harbors, bays and the Pacific Ocean. National City will determine the definition for wetlands and the limits thereof for the purposes of this definition as protective as the United States Environmental Protection Agency. Constructed wetlands are not considered wetlands under this definition, unless the wetlands were constructed as mitigation for habitat loss. Other constructed BMPs are not considered receiving waters under this definition, unless the BMP was originally constructed in receiving waters. Construction of treatment control BMPs in "Receiving Waters" is prohibited and therefore may not be used to satisfy SUSMP requirements. u "Residential Development" means any development on private land that provides living accommodations for one or more persons. This category includes, but is not limited to: single-family homes, multi -family homes, condominiums, and apartments. u "Residential Development of 10 units or more" means any development that provides 10 or more residential units. Residential units can be attached or detached. ❑ "Restaurant" means a stand-alone facility that sells prepared foods and drinks for consumption, including stationary lunch counters and refreshment stands selling prepared foods and drinks for immediate consumption (SIC code 5812), where the land area for development is greater than 5,000 square feet. Restaurants where land development is less than 5,000 square feet shall meet all SUSMP requirements except for structural treatment BMP and numeric sizing criteria requirement and hydromodification requirement. ❑ "Sediment" means soils or other surficial materials eroded and then transported or deposited by the action of wind, water, ice, or gravity. Sediments can increase turbidity, clog fish gills, reduce spawning habitat, lower young aquatic organism survival rates, smother bottom dwelling organisms, and suppress aquatic vegetation growth. ❑ "Significant Redevelopment" means development that would create or add or replace at least 5,000 square feet of impervious surfaces on an already developed site that falls under one or more priority development project categories. Where redevelopment results in an increase of less than 50 percent of the impervious surfaces of a previously existing development, and the existing development was not subject to SUSMP requirements, the numberic sizing criteria identified in Section 2, Step 8 apply only to the addition, and not Page 5 the entire development. When redevelopment results in an increase of more than 50 percent of the impervious surfaces of a previously existing development, the numeric sizing criteria applies to the entire development. Significant redevelopment includes, but is not limited to: the expansion of a building footprint; addition to or replacement of a structure; replacement of an impervious surface that is not part of a routine maintenance activity; and land disturbing activities related with structural or impervious surfaces. Replacement of impervious surfaces includes any activity that is not part of a routine maintenance activity where impervious material(s) are removed, exposing underlying soil during construction. Significant redevelopment does not include trenching and resurfacing associated with utility work, resurfacing and reconfiguring surface parking lots, new sidewalk, pedestrian ramps or bike lane construction on existing roads, and replacement of damaged pavement. u "Site Design BMP" known as a significant part of Low impact Development (LID), means any project design feature that reduces the amount of impervious surfaces, disconnects impervious surfaces, reduces creation or severity of potential pollutant sources and/or reduces the alteration of the project site's natural flow regime. Redevelopment projects that are undertaken to remove pollutant sources (such as existing surface parking lots and other impervious surfaces) or to reduce the need for new roads and other impervious surfaces (as compared to conventional or low -density new development) by incorporating higher densities and/or mixed land uses into the project design, are also considered site design BMPs. u "Source Control BMP (both structural and non-structural)" means land use or site planning practices, or structures that aim to prevent urban runoff pollution by reducing the potential for contamination at the source of pollution. Source control BMPs minimize the contact between pollutants and urban runoff. Examples include roof structures over trash or material storage areas, and berms around fuel dispensing areas. u "Storm Water Best Management Practice (BMP)" means any schedules of activities, prohibitions of practices, general good house keeping practices, pollution prevention and educational practices, maintenance procedures, structural treatment BMPs, and other management practices to prevent or reduce to the maximum extent practicable the discharge of pollutants directly or indirectly to receiving waters. Storm Water BMPs also include treatment requirements, operating procedures and practices to control site runoff, spillage or leaks, sludge or waste disposal, or drainage from raw material storage. This SUSMP groups storm water BMPs into the following categories: site design; source control; and treatment control (pollutant removal). • "Storm Water Conveyance System" means private and public drainage facilities by which storm water may be conveyed to Receiving Waters, such as: natural drainages, roads, streets, constructed channels, aqueducts, storm drains, pipes, street gutters, or catch basins. Page 6 "Streets, Roads, IIighways, and Freeways" means any project that is not part of a routine maintenance activity, and would create a new paved surface that is 5,000 square feet or greater used for the transportation of automobiles, trucks, motorcycles and other vehicles. For the purposes of SUSMP requirements, Streets, Roads, I Iighways and Freeways do not include trenching and resurfacing associated with utility work; applying asphalt overlay to existing pavement; new sidewalk, pedestrian ramps, or bike lane construction on existing roads; and replacement of damaged pavement. ❑ "Treatment Control (Structural) BMP" means any engineered system designed and constructed to remove pollutants from urban runoff. Pollutant removal is achieved by simple gravity settling of particulate pollutants, filtration, biological uptake, media adsorption or any other physical, biological, or chemical process. Where requirements of the local SUSMP conflict with established local codes, (e.g., specific language of signage used on storm drain stenciling), National City may continue the local practice and modify the SUSMP to be consistent with the code, except that to the extent that the standards in the SUSMP are more stringent than those under local codes, such more stringent standards shall apply. This SUSMP is based on the Municipal Permit as it was in force in January 2007, except as that Municipal Permit was directed to be revised by the State Water Resources Control Board. If as a result of court action any part of the Municipal Permit is invalidated, stayed, or required to be revised by a final judgment, National City's SUSMP and local ordinances may he appropriate. National City has identified the department(s) responsible for ensuring SUSMP requirements are implemented in its Jurisdictional URMP, and the roles and responsibilities each department possesses. At a minimum, for discretionary projects, SUSMP requirements shall be incorporated into the project design and shown on the plans prior to decision -maker approval of discretionary permits. For projects requiring only ministerial permits, SUSMP requirements shall be incorporated into the project design and shown on the plans prior to the issuance of any ministerial permits. National City's departments carrying out public projects that are not required to obtain permits shall be responsible for ensuring SUSMP requirements are incorporated into the project design and shown on the plans prior to bidding for construction contracts, or equivalent. For public projects SUSMP requirements must be incorporated into the project design and shown on the plans before allowing the project to commence. Page 7 Section VI provides a procedure for identifying a project's pollutants and conditions of concern, and addressing these through site design, source control, and treatment control storm water BMPs. All priority projects shall implement one or a combination of storm water BMPs, including, I) LID and site design BMPs, 2) source control BMPs and, 3) structural treatment BMPs after the pollutants and conditions of concern have been identified. Storm water BMPs, from those listed in Appendix A: "Approved Storm Water Best Management Practices", shall be considered and implemented where determined applicable and feasible by National City. Additional information on BMPs is included in the notes to Table 3 and in the references in Appendix B. The storm water BMPs shall adhere to the requirements in Section VI of this Model SUSMP, and shall be correctly designed so as to remove pollutants to the maximum extent practicable. A flow chart summarizing the storm water BMP selection procedure is provided in Figure 1. Site Design Storm Water Treatment Credits National City agrees it may develop and submit for Regional Board review and approval a Site Design Storm Water Treatment Credits program that allows reductions in the volume or flow of storm water that must he captured or treated on a project in return for the inclusion of specified project design features in the project, and further agree that any such submittal shall he deemed to be a part of this Model SUSMP jointly submitted to the Regional Board for review and approval. Any such model program shall specify the conditions under which project proponents can be credited for the use of site design features and low impact development techniques that can reduce the volume of storm water runoff, preserve natural areas, and minimize the pollutant loads generated and potentially discharged from the site. Provided, however that if a method for determining site design credits is developed on a time schedule that will permit further National City review prior to submission to the Regional Board, that proposal shall first be submitted to the Copermittees and if agreed to by the Copermittees will be submitted to the Regional Board as a single regional model. Any Copermittee may adopt and implement a Storm Water Credit Program consistent with this model approved by the Regional Board. Alternative Methods for Achieving Treatment Requirements National City may implement the Local Equivalent Area Drainage (LEAD) Method, as proposed by the City of San Diego in its May 16, 2002 letter (Appendix C), for meeting the BMP requirements in Section VI.2.c, Step 8, "Design to Treatment Control BMP Standards." The alternative method must minimally meet the following criteria: • The alterative treatment area shall be located within the proximity of the project; • The alternative treatment area shall discharge to the same receiving water as the project; • The alternative treatment area shall he equivalent or greater than the project footprint; Page 8 • The alternative treatment arca shall have an equivalent or greater impervious surface area than the project; • The alternative treatment area shall have an equivalent or greater pollutant load than the project; • Site Design and Source Control BMPs (Section VI.2.a & b) shall be required in the project design; • Alternative treatments shall he limited to redevelopment and/or inlill projects. National City may implement the alternative LEAD method for no more than three pilot projects within its jurisdiction during this permit cycle. For each project where an alternative method is implemented, the effectiveness of the alternative method shall be monitored and reported on to the Regional Board by the end of the permit cycle.

IDENTIFY POLLUTANTS & CONDITIONS OF CONCERN Priority project proponents shall use this guidance to identify pollutants and conditions of concern, for which they need to mitigate or protect against. Once identified, appropriate control measures for these pollutants and conditions are specified in Section VI.2, "Establish Storm Water BMPs." Standard control measures are required based on pollutants commonly associated with the proposed project type (see Table 2, "Standard Storm Water BMP Selection Matrix"). Priority projects required to implement structural treatment control BMPs using the standard BMP selection procedure should use Table 3, "Enhanced Treatment Control BMP Selection Matrix," to aid in selecting the structural treatment BMP(s) from Appendix A that would have the greatest pollutant removal efficiency for projects. Enhanced control measures are required for projects anticipated to generate pollutants that are also identified as pollutants of concern in the project's downstream receiving water(s) (see Table 3). National City will incorporate the requirements listed in Sections VI.1.a-c in the procedure for identifying pollutants and conditions of concern in its SUSMP. For private priority projects, National City shall require the information to be provided with the project application prior to being deemed complete. For public priority projects, National City shall approve the information prior to bidding for construction contracts. General Categories of Water Pollution Urban runoff from a developed site has the potential to contribute pollutants, including oil and grease, suspended solids, metals, gasoline, pesticides, and pathogens to the storm water conveyance system and receiving waters. For the purposes of identifying pollutants of concern and associated storm water BMPs, pollutants are grouped in nine general categories as follows: 1. Sediments Sediments are soils or other surficial materials eroded and then transported or deposited by the action of wind, water, ice, or gravity. Sediments can increase turbidity, clog fish gills, reduce spawning habitat, lower young aquatic organisms survival rates, smother bottom dwelling organisms, and suppress aquatic vegetation growth. 2. Nutrients Nutrients are inorganic substances, such as nitrogen and phosphorus. They commonly exist in the form of mineral salts that are either dissolved or suspended in water. Primary sources of nutrients in urban runoff are fertilizers and eroded soils. Excessive discharge of nutrients to water bodies and streams can cause excessive aquatic algae and plant gowth. Such excessive production, referred to as cultural eutrophication, may lead to excessive decay of organic matter in the water body, loss of oxygen in the water, release of toxins in sediment, and the eventual death of aquatic organisms. 3. Metals - Metals arc raw material components in non-metal products such as fuels, adhesives, paints, and other coatings. Primary source of metal pollution in storm water are typically commercially available metals and metal products. Metals of concern include cadmium, chromium, copper, lead, mercury, and zinc. Lead and chromium have been used as corrosion inhibitors in primer coatings and cooling tower systems. At low concentrations naturally occurring in soil, metals are not toxic. However, at higher C Onrnmcnts and Scumgs gmcmi 1 ord Sfm zgs-1 cmpe::n) {corms Pilrs CLK ig SC. St SNIP'_nl' I Aran ropvi.!n; Pagcll concentrations, certain metals can be toxic to aquatic life. humans can be impacted from contaminated groundwater resources, and bioaccumulation of metals in fish and shellfish. Environmental concerns, regarding the potential for release of metals to the environment, have already led to restricted metal usage in certain applications. 4. Organic Compounds - Organic compounds are carbon -based. Commercially available or naturally occurring organic compounds are found in pesticides, solvents, and hydrocarbons. Organic compounds can, at certain concentrations, indirectly or directly constitute a hazard to life or health. When rinsing off objects, toxic levels of solvents and cleaning compounds can be discharged to storm drains. Dirt, grease, and grime retained in the cleaning fluid or rinse water may also adsorb levels of organic compounds that are harmful or hazardous to aquatic life. 5. Trash & Debris - Trash (such as paper, plastic, polystyrene packing foam, and aluminum materials) and biodegradable organic matter (such as leaves. grass cuttings, and food waste) arc general waste products on the landscape. The presence of trash & debris may have a significant impact on the recreational value of a water body and aquatic habitat. Excess organic matter can create a high biochemical oxygen demand in a stream and thereby lower its water quality. Also, in areas where stagnant water exists, the presence of excess organic matter can promote septic conditions resulting in the growth of undesirable organisms and the release of odorous and hazardous compounds such as hydrogen sulfide. 6. Oxygen -Demanding Substances - This category includes biodegradable organic material as well as chemicals that react with dissolved oxygen in water to form other compounds. Proteins, carbohydrates, and fats are examples of'biodegradable organic compounds. Compounds such as ammonia and hydrogen sulfide are examples of oxygen -demanding compounds. The oxygen demand of a substance can lead to depletion of dissolved oxygen in a water body and possibly the development of septic conditions. 7. Oil and Grease - Oil and grease are characterized as high -molecular weight organic compounds. Primary sources of oil and grease are petroleum hydrocarbon products, motor products from leaking vehicles, esters, oils, fats, waxes, and high molecular -weight fatty acids. Introduction of these pollutants to the water bodies are very possible due to the wide uses and applications of some of these products in municipal, residential, commercial, industrial, and construction areas. Elevated oil and grease content can decrease the aesthetic value of the water body, as well as the water quality. 8. Bacteria and Viruses - Bacteria and viruses are ubiquitous micro-organisms that thrive under certain environmental conditions. Their proliferation is typically caused by the transport of animal or human fecal wastes from the watershed. Water containing excessive bacteria and viruses can alter the aquatic habitat and create a harmful environment for humans and aquatic life. Also, the decomposition of excess organic waste causes increased growth of undesirable organisms in the water. 9. Pesticides - Pesticides (including herbicides) are chemical compounds commonly used to control nuisance growth or prevalence of organisms. Excessive application of a pesticide may result in runoff containing toxic levels of its active component. Page 12 a. Identify Pollutants from the Project Area Using Table 1, identify pollutants that are anticipated to be generated from the proposed priority project categories. Pollutants associated with any hazardous material sites that have been remediated or are not threatened by the proposed project are not considered a pollutant of concern. Table 1.

Identify Pollutants of Concern in Receiving Waters Pollutants generated by the proposed priority project that exhibits one or more of the following characteristics are considered primary pollutants of concern: • Current loadings or historical deposits of the pollutant are impairing the beneficial uses of a receiving water; • Elevated levels of the pollutant are found in water or sediments of a receiving water and/or have the potential to be toxic or to bioaccumulatc in organisms therein; and • Inputs of the pollutant are at a level high enough to he considered potentially toxic. To identify pollutants of -concern in receiving waters, each priority project shall, at a minimum, do the following: 1. For each of the proposed projects discharge points, identify the receiving water(s) that each discharge point proposes to discharge to, including hydrologic unit basin number(s), as identified in the most recent version of the Water Quality Control Plan for the San Diego Basin', prepared by the San Diego Regional Water Quality Control Board. 2. identify any receiving waters, into which the developed area would discharge to, listed on the most recent list of Clean Water Act Section 303(d) impaired water bodies'. List any and all pollutants for which the receiving waters are impaired. 3. Compare the list of pollutants for which the receiving waters are impaired with the pollutants anticipated to he generated by the project (as identified in Table 1). Any pollutants identified by Table 1, which arc also causing impairment of receiving waters, shall be considered primary pollutants of concern. For projects where no primary pollutants of concern exist, those pollutants identified through the use of Table I shall be considered secondary pollutants of concern. c. identify Conditions of Concern in Receiving Waters Common impacts to the hydrologic regime resulting from development typically include increased runoff volume and velocity; reduced infiltration; increased flow frequency, duration, and peaks; faster time to reach peak flow; and water quality degradation. These changes have the potential to permanently impact downstream channels and habitat integrity. A change to a priority project sites hydrologic regime would be considered a condition of concern if the change would impact downstream channels and habitat integrity. Because of these potential impacts, municipal staff may require that the following steps be followed for Priority Projects which, in their judg rent, may impact the hydrologic regime: 1. http://www.swrcb.ca.gov/—rwgcb9/Programs/Planning_and_Services/SD_Basin/sd_basin.html 2. http://www.swrcb.ca.gov/tmdl/303d_lists.html, San Diego is in Region 9 Page I4 1. Evaluate the project's conditions of concern in a drainage study report prepared by a registered civil engineer in the State of California, with experience in fluvial geomorphology and water resources management. The report shall consider the project area's location (from the larger watershed perspective), topography, soil and vegetation conditions, percent impervious area, natural and infrastructure drainage features, , wet season groundwater depth, and any other relevant hydrologic and environmental factors to he protected specific to the project area's watershed. 2. As part of the drainage study, a qualified, licensed professional shall provide a report on proposed infiltration techniques (trenches, basins, dry wells, permeable pavements with underground reservoir for infiltration) regarding any potential adverse gcotechnical concerns. Geotechnical conditions such as slope stability, expansive soils, compressible soils, seepage, groundwater depth, and loss of foundation or pavement subgrade strength should be addressed, and mitigation measures should be provided. 3. As part of the drainage study, the civil engineer shall conduct a field reconnaissance to observe and report on downstream conditions, including undercutting erosion, slope stability, vegetative stress (due to flooding, erosion, water quality degradation, or loss of water supplies) and the area's susceptibility to erosion or habitat alteration as a result of an altered flow regime. 4. The drainage study shall compute rainfall runoff characteristics from the project area including, at a minimum, ninoff volume, time of concentration, and retention volume. These characteristics shall he developed for the two-year and 10-year frequency, Type I storm, of six -hour or 24-hour duration (whichever is the closer approximation of the site's time of concentration), during critical hydrologic conditions for soil and vegetative cover'. The drainage study shall report the project's conditions of concern based on the hydrologic and downstream conditions discussed above. Where downstream conditions of concern have been identified, the drainage study shall establish that pre -project hydrologic conditions affecting downstream conditions of concern would be maintained by the proposed project, satisfactory to National City, by incorporating the site design, source control, and treatment control requirements identified in Section VI.2. Priority Development Projects that disturb 50 acres or more are subject to the City's Interim Ilydromodification Criteria (IHC). The 1HC was developed regionally and was modified from the Contra Costa Ilydromodification Plan. Two compliance options are provided — curve - matching based on continuous simulation modeling, and implementation of LiD. The curve - matching approach as described below is currently available for use by Priority Development Projects within the City's jurisdiction. The range of flows to he managed under the curve - matching option is expressed as a percentage of the 5-year peak flow (Q5) based on the understanding that dominant discharge for southern California streams is in the vicinity of Q5. 3. Design storms can be found at http://www.wrcc.dri.edu/pcpnfreq.html. The Copermittees may calculate the storm events using local rain data. In addition, isopluvial maps contained in the County of San Diego Hydrology Manual may be used to extrapolate rainfall data to areas where insufficient data exists. If isopluvial maps are selected, Copermittees shall describe their method for using isopluvial maps in their Jurisdictional SUSMP. Page 15 The LID implementation option may become available later if design and sizing procedures are created and approved regionally during the course of developing the final Hydromodification Plan. If LID design guidance is not approved during the period that the IHC are in place, the curve -matching standard is the default compliance standard. I . Curve -matching based on continuous simulation modeling: Estimated post -project runoff durations and peak flows do not exceed pre -project durations and peak flows. The project proponent must use a continuous simulation hydrologic computer model such as USEPA's Hydrograph Simulation Program —Fortran (HSPF) to simulate pre - project and post -project runoff, including the effect of proposed Integrated Management Practices (IMPs), detention basins, or other storm water management facilities. To use this method, the project proponent shall compare the pre -project and post -project model output for a rainfall record of at least 30 years, and shall show the following criteria are met: a. For flow rates from 20% of the pre -project 5-year runoff event (0.2Q5) to the pre -project 10-year runoff event (Q10), the post -project discharge rates and durations shall not deviate above the pre -project rates and durations by more than 10% over more than 10% of the length of the flow duration curve. b. For flow rates from 0.2Q5 to Q5, the post -project peak flows shall not exceed pre -project peak flows. For flow rates from Q5 to Q I0, post -project peak flows may exceed pre -project flows by up to 10% for a 1-year frequency interval. For example, post -project flows could exceed pre -project flows by up to 10% for the interval from Q9 to Ql 0 or from Q5.5 to Q6.5, but not from QR to Q 10. (Note that the 0.2Q5 end of the range may be modified). 2. implementation of LID IMPS. 'l'he project proponent may implement LID IMPs to manage hydrograph modification impacts, using design procedures, criteria, and sizing factors (ratios of LID IMP volume or area to tributary arca) as specified by the City of National City once standard design procedures, criteria, and sizing factors are accepted by the City. The LID IMP designs and sizing factors shall be determined using continuous simulation of runoff from a long-term rainfall record. Priority Development Projects disturbing 50 acres of more are exempt from the above II -IC when: I. The project would discharge into channels that are concrete -lined or significantly hardened (e.g., with rip -rap, sackcrete, etc.) downstream to their outfall in bays or the ocean; 2. The project would discharge into underground storm drains discharging directly to bays or the ocean; or 3. The project would discharge to a channel where the watershed areas below the project's discharge points are highly impervious (e.g. >70%)." 4. The applicant conducts an assessment incorporating sediment transport modeling across the range of gcomorphically-significant flows that demonstrates to the Page 16 permitting agencies satisfaction that the project flows and sediment reductions will not detrimentally affect the receiving water. 2. ESTABLISH STORM WATER BMPs Site design BMPs reduce the need for source and/or treatment control BMPs, and source control BMPs may reduce the amount of treatment control BMPs needed. Throughout all the following sections, all priority projects shall consider, and incorporate and implement where expressly required by the Permit and if not so required where determined applicable and feasible by National City, storm water BMPs into the project design, in the following progression: • Site Design BMPs • Source Control BMPs • Treatment Control BMPs At a minimum, priority projects must implement LiD site design BMPs and source control BMPs, and must also implement treatment control BMPs unless a waiver is granted based on the infeasibility of all treatment control BMPs. t.ir) BMPs must meet minimum requirements in municipal permit section D.1.d.(4). BMPs must also achieve certain performance standards set out in the municipal permit section D.l .d.(5) and (6). Selection of BMPs from the menus included in this SUSMP, using the rules set out in this SUSMP, must fulfill these requirements. In addition, runoff treated by LID and site design or source control BMPs, such as rooftop runoff treated in landscaping, may be useful in reducing the quantity of runoff required to he treated in Section VI.2.c, `"lrreatment Control BMPs." To select a structural treatment BMP using the Treatment Control BMP Selection Matrix, each priority project shall compare the list of pollutants for which the downstream receiving waters are impaired (if any), with the pollutants anticipated to be generated by the project (as identified in Table I). Any pollutants identified by Table I which also cause a Clean Water Act section 303(d) impairment of the receiving waters of the project shall be considered primary pollutants of concern. Priority projects that are anticipated to generate a primary pollutant of concern shall meet all applicable requirements in Section Vt.2, and shall select a singe or combination of storm water BMPs from Table 3 that are effective for pollutant removal of the particular primary pol lutant(s) of concern. Alternatively, a project proponent may elect to implement a combination of LID BMPs that either disperse and infiltrate, or direct to hioretention facilities, the flows from all impervious areas on -site. These BMPs are presumed to provide maximum extent practicable treatment for all pollutants of concern; therefore no further documentation of the treatment BMP selection process is required. Priority projects that are not anticipated to generate a pollutant for which the receiving water is Clean Water Act Section 303(d) impaired shall meet applicable standard requirements in Section VI.2, and shall select a single or combination of stonn water BMPs from Table 3 which are Page 17 effective for pollutants removal of the identified secondary pollutants of concern, consistent with the "maximum extent practicable" standard defined in Attachment C of the Municipal Permit. Where a site generates both primary and secondary pollutants of concern, primary pollutants of concern receive priority of BMP selection. For such sites, selected BMPs must only maximize pollutants removal for the primary pollutants of concern. Where a site generates only secondary pollutants of concern selected BMPs shall target the secondary pollutants of concern to be the most significant for the project. Selected BMPs must be effective for the widest range of pollutants of concern with the maximum extent practicable standard defined in Attachment C of the municipal Permit. Treatment control BMPs with a high or medium pollutant removal efficiency for the project's most significant pollutant of concern shall be selected. Treatment control BMPs with a low removal efficiency ranking shall only he approved by the Copermittee when a feasibility analysis has been conducted which exhibits that implementation of treatment control BMPs with a high or medium removal efficiency ranking are infeasible. Treatment control BMPs shall not he constructed within a receiving water. Alternative storm water BMPs not identified in Table 3 may be approved at the discretion of National City, provided the alternative BMP is as effective in removal of pollutants of concern as other feasible BMPs listed in "fable 3.

Ranking of all facilities assumes proper sizing, design, and periodic maintenance. Following are general descriptions of each category. • Bioretention Facilities (infiltration planters, flow -through planters, bioretention areas, and bioretention swales). Facilities are designed to capture runoff and infiltrate slowly through soil media which also supports vegetation. Bioretention facilities, except for flow -through planters, effectively promote infiltration into native soils. In clay soils, facilities may capture excess treated runoff in an underdrain piped to the municipal storm drain system. Typical criteria: an infiltration surface area at least 4% of tributary impervious area, 6-inch average depth of top reservoir, 18-inch soil layer, 12-inch to i fl- inch gravel subsurface storage Layer. • Settling Basins and Wetlands (extended detention basins, "wet" basins, decorative or recreational lakes or water features also used for storm water treatment, constructed wetlands). Facilities are designed to capture a minimum water quality volume of 80% of total runoff and detain for a minimum of 48 hours. Some wetland designs have proven effective in removing nutrients, but performance varies. • Infiltration Facilities or Practices (infiltration basins, infiltration trenches, dry wells, dispersal of runoff to landscape, pervious pavements). 'these facilities and landscape designs capture, retain, and infiltrate a minimum of 80% of runoff into the ground. Infiltration facilities are gent -Tally only feasible in permeable (Hydrologic Soil Group A or B) soils. Volume and area of infiltration facilities depends on soil permeability and safety factor used. Typical criteria: infiltration facilities should have pretreatment to remove silt to prolong life of the facility. A 10-foot vertical separation from average seasonal groundwater depth is required. Dispersal to landscape may be accomplished in any soil type and generally requires a maximum 2:1 ratio impervious:per vious and concave topography to ensure the first 1 inch of rainfall is retained. Page 20 • Media Filters (sand filters). Filters designed to treat runoff produced by a rainfall of 0.2 inches per hour (or 2 185th percentile hourly rainfall intensity) by slow infiltration through sand or other media. 'Typical criteria: Surface loading rate not to exceed 5 inches/hour. Entire surface of the sand must be accessible for maintenance. • Iligh Rate Biofilters (tree wells, typically proprietary). Biofilters with specially designed media to rapidly filter runoff while removing some pollutants. Filterra® (proprietary version) recommends surface loading rates of up to 100 inches/hour. • High -rate Media Filters (typically proprietary). Vaults with replaceable cartridge filters filled with inorganic media. Notes on Pollutants of Concern: In Table 3, Pollutants of Concern are grouped as gross pollutants, pollutants that tend to associate with fine particles, and pollutants that remain dissolved. fable 4.

Low impact Development (LID) and Site Design BMPs Priority projects shall be designed so as to minimize, directly connected impervious surfaces and to promote infiltration using LID techniques. Priority projects shall, to the maximum extent practicable, minimize the introduction of pollutants and conditions of concern that may result in significant impacts, generated from site runoff to the storm water conveyance system. Priority Projects shall also control post -development peak storm water runoff discharge rates and velocities to maintain or reduce pre -development downstream erosion and protect stream habitat. Although not mandatory, priority projects can address these objectives through the creation of a hydrologically functional project design that attempts to mimic the natural hydrologic regime. Many of these techniques are outlined and reviewed in the County of San Diego's LiD Handbook and Appendices. Mimicking a site's natural hydrologic regime can be pursued by: • Reducing imperviousness, conserving natural resources and areas, maintaining and using natural drainage courses in the storm water conveyance system, and minimizing clearing and grading. • Providing runoff storage measures dispersed uniformly throughout a site's landscape with the use of bioretention facilities and detention, retention, and infiltration practices. Page 21 These design principles offer an innovative approach to urban storm water management, one that does not rely on the conventional end -of -pipe or in -the -pipe structural methods but instead uniformly or strategically integrates storm water controls throughout the urban landscape. Useful resources for applying these principles, referenced in the appendix, include the County of San Diego's LID IIandbook (2007), Start at the Source (1999), and Low -Impact Development Design Strategies (1999) ), the City of Portland's Stormwater Manual (2004), and the Contra Costa Clean Water Program's Stormwater C.3 Guidebook (2006).. Step 1: Objective: Maintain Pre -Development Rainfall Runoff Characteristics Priority projects shall control post -development peak storm water runoff discharge rates and velocities to maintain or reduce pre -development development downstream erosion. In addition, projects should control runoff discharge volumes and durations to the maximum extent practicable using the site design, source control, and treatment control requirements identified in Section VI.2. Design Concept 1: Mininuze Project's Impervious Footprint & Conserve Natural Areas The following site design options shall be considered and shall he incorporated and implemented where determined applicable and feasible by National City, during the site planning and approval process, consistent with applicable General Plan policies and other development regulations. 1. Minimize and disconnect impervious surfaces. This can be achieved in various ways, including, but not limited to increasing building density (number of stories above or below ground) and developing land use regulations seeking to limit impervious surfaces. Decreasing the project's footprint can substantially reduce the project's impacts to water quality and hydrologic conditions. 2. Conserve natural areas, soils, and vegetation where feasible. Concentrating or clustering development on the least environmentally sensitive portions of a site while leaving the remaining land in a natural, undisturbed condition can achieve this. The following list provides a guideline for determining the least sensitive portions of the site, in order of increasing sensitivity. Jurisdictions should also refer to their Multiple Species Conservation Plans or other biological regulations, as appropriate. a. Areas devoid of vegetation, including previously graded areas and agricultural fields. b. Areas of non-native vegetation, disturbed habitats and eucalyptus woodlands. c. Areas of chamise or mixed chaparral, and non-native grasslands. d. Areas containing coastal scrub communities. e. All other upland communities. f. Occupied habitat of sensitive species and all wetlands (as both are defined by National City). g. All areas necessary to maintain the viability of wildlife corridors. Within each of the previous categories, areas containing hillsides (as defined in this SUSMP) should be considered more sensitive than the same category without hillsides. Page 22 3. Construct walkways, trails, patios, overflow parking lots and alleys and other low -traffic areas with permeable surfaces, such as pervious concrete, permeable asphalt, unit pavers and granular materials. 4. Construct streets, sidewalks and parking lot aisles to the minimum widths necessary, provided that public safety and a walkable environment for pedestrians are not compromised. 5. Maximize canopy interception and water conservation by preserving existing native trees and shrubs, and planting additional native or drought tolerant trees and large shrubs. 6. Minimize the use of impervious surfaces, such as decorative concrete, in the landscape design. 7. Ilse natural drainage systems to the maximum extent practicable. 8. Minimize soil compaction 9. Other site design options, which are comparable, and equally effective. Design Concept 2: Minimize Directly Connected Impervious Areas (DCIAs) Priority projects shall consider, and incorporate and implement the following design characteristics, where determined applicable and feasible: 1. Where landscaping is proposed, drain rooftops into adjacent landscaping prior to discharging to the storm drain. 2. Where landscaping is proposed, drain impervious sidewalks, walkways, trails, and patios into adjacent landscaping. 3. Other design characteristics that is comparable and equally effective. Step 2: Protect Slopes and Channels Project plans shall include storm water BMPs to decrease the potential for erosion of slopes and/or channels, consistent with local codes and ordinances and with the approval of all agencies with jurisdiction, e.g., the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the San Diego Regional Water Quality Control Board, and the California Departrnent of Fish and Game. The following design principles shall be considered, and incorporated and implemented where determined applicable and feasible by National City: 1. Minimize disturbances to Natural Drainages 2. Convey runoff safely from the tops of slopes. 3. Vegetate slopes with native or drought tolerant vegetation. 4. Control and treat flows in landscaping and/or other controls prior to reaching existing natural drainage systems. 5. Stabilize permanent channel crossings. 6. Install energy dissipaters, such as riprap, at the outlets of new storm drains, culverts, conduits, or channels that enter unlined channels in accordance with applicable Page 23 specifications to minimize erosion. Energy dissipaters shall be installed in such a way as to minimize impacts to receiving waters. 7. Other design principles, which are comparable and equally effective. b. Source Control BMPs Step 3: Provide Storm Drain System Stenciling and Signage Storm drain stencils are highly visible source control messages, typically placed directly adjacent to storm drain inlets. The stencils contain a brief statement that prohibits the dumping of improper materials into the urban runoff conveyance system. (iraphical icons, either illustrating anti -dumping symbols or images of receiving water fauna, are effective supplements to the anti- dumping message. Priority projects shall include the following requirements in the project design, where determined applicable and feasible by National City. 1. Provide stenciling or labeling of all storm drain inlets and catch basins within the project area with prohibitive language (such as: "NO DUMPING -1 LIVE DOWNSTREAM") and/or graphical icons to discourage illegal dumping. 2. Post signs and prohibitive language and/or graphical icons, which prohibit illegal dumping at public access points along channels and creeks within the project area. 3. Maintain legibility of stencils and signs. Step 4: Design Outdoor Material Storage Areas to Reduce Pollution Introduction Improper storage of materials outdoors may increase the potential for toxic compounds, oil and grease, heavy metals, nutrients, suspended solids, and other pollutants to enter the urban runoff conveyance system. Where the priority project plans include outdoor areas for storage of hazardous materials that may contribute pollutants to the urban runoff conveyance system, the following storm water BMPs are required: Ilazardous materials with the potential to contaminate urban runoff shall either be: (1) placed in an enclosure such as, but not limited to, a cabinet, shed, or similar structure that prevents contact with runoff or spillage to the storm water conveyance system; or (2) protected by secondary containment structures such as berms, dikes, or curbs. 2 The storage area shall be paved and sufficiently impervious to contain leaks and spills. 3- The storage area shall have a roof or awning to minimize direct precipitation within the secondary containment area. Step 5: Design Trash Storage Areas to Reduce Pollution Introduction AU trash container areas shall meet the following requirements (limited exclusion: detached residential homes): 1. The area shall be paved with an impervious surface, designed not to allow run-on from Page 24 adjoining areas, screened or walled to prevent off -site transport of trash; or, 2. Attached lids shall he mounted on all trash containers that exclude rain, or a roof or awning be installed to minimize direct precipitation. Step 6:Use Efficient Irrigation Systems & Landscape Design Priority projects shall design the timing and methods of application of irrigation water to minimize the runoff of excess irrigation water into the storm water conveyance system (with the limited exclusion of detached residential homes.) In compliance with the Water Conservation in Landscaping Act, the following methods to reduce excessive irrigation runoff shall he considered, and shall be incorporated and implemented where determined applicable and feasible by National City: 1. Employment of rain shutoff devices to prevent irrigation after precipitation. 2. Design of irrigation systems to each landscape area's specific water requirements. 3. Usc of flow reducers or shutoff valves triggered by a pressure drop to control water loss in the event of broken sprinkler heads or lines. 4. Employment of other comparable, equally effective, methods to reduce irrigation water runoff. Step 7: incorporate Requirements Applicable to Individual Priority Project Categories Where identified in Table 2, the following requirements shall he incorporated into applicable priority projects during the storm water BMP selection and design process. Projects shall adhere to each of the individual priority project category requirements that apply to the project (e.g., a restaurant with more than 15 parking spaces would be required to incorporate the requirements for" g. Equipment Wash Areas" and "h. Parking Areas" into the project design). a. Private Roads The design of private roadway drainage shall use at least one of the following (for further guidance, see Start ut the Source [ 1999)): 1. Rural swale system: street sheet flows to vegetated swale or gravel shoulder, curbs at street corners, culverts under driveways and street crossings; 2. Urban curb/swale system: street slopes to curb, periodic swale inlets drain to vegetated swale/biofilter; 3. Dual drainage system: First flush captured in street catch basins and discharged to adjacent vegetated swale or gravel shoulder, high flows connect directly to storm water conveyance system. 4. Other methods, which are comparable and equally effective within the project may be used. Page 25 b.

The repair/maintenance bay drainage system shall be designed to capture all wash water, leaks and spills. Drains shall be connected to a surnp for collection and disposal. Direct connection of the repair/maintenance bays to the storm drain system shall be prohibited. If required by National City, an Industrial Waste Discharge Permit shall be obtained by the business. OR 3. Other features which are comparable and equally effective may be used. e. Vehicle Wash Areas Priority projects that include areas for washing/steam cleaning of vehicles shall consider, and shall incorporate and implement where determined applicable and feasible by National City, the following: Page 26 1. Be self-contained; or covered with a roof or overhang; 2. Be equipped with a clarifier or other pretreatment facility; 3. Be properly connected to a sanitary sewer. 4.

Treatment Control BMPs Minimizing a development's detrimental effects on water quality can be most effectively achieved through the use of a combination of site design, source and treatment control storm water BMPs. Priority projects shall be designed to remove pollutants of concern from the storm water conveyance system to the maximum extent practicable through the incorporation and implementation of treatment control BMPs. In meeting the requirements in this section, priority projects shall implement a single or combination of storm water BMPs that will remove anticipated pollutants of concern, as identified by the procedure in Section VI.1, in site runoff to the maximum extent practicable. Treatment control BMPs with a high or medium pollutant removal efficiency for the project's most significant pollutant of concern shall be selected. Treatment control BMPs with a low removal efficiency ranking shall only be approved by the City when a feasibility analysis has been conducted which exhibits that implementation of treatment control BMPs with a high or medium removal efficiency ranking are infeasible. Treatment control BMPs must be implemented unless a waiver is granted to the project by National City based on the infeasibility of any treatment control BMP. Page 28 Step 8: Design to Treatment Control BMP Standards All priority projects shall be designed, constructed and shall implement structural treatment control BMPs that meet the design standards of this section, unless specifically exempted by the limited exclusions listed at the end of Step 8. Structural treatment control BMPs required by this section shall he operational prior to the use of any dependent development, and shall be located and designed in accordance with the requirements in Step 8 and Step 9. National City may choose to eliminate one or more of the numeric volume or flow sizing methods listed below. Volume 1. Volume -based BMPs shall be designed to mitigate (infiltrate, filter, or treat) either: i. The volume of runoff produced from a 24-hour 85th percentile storm event, as determined from the local historical rainfall record (0.6 inch approximate average for the San Diego County area)4; or ii. The volume of runoff produced by the 85th percentile 24-hour runoff event, determined as the maximized capture urban runoff volume for the area, from the formula recommended in Urban Runoff Quality Management, WEF Manual of Practice No. 23/ ASCE Manual of Practice No. 87, (1998); or iii. The volume of annual nrnolf based on unit basin storage volume, to achieve 90 percent or more volume treatment by the method recommended in California Stormwater Best Management Practices Handbook — Industrial/ Commercial, (1993), or iv. The volume of runoff, as determined from the local historical rainfall record, that achieves approximately the same reduction in pollutant loads and flows as achieved by mitigation of the 85th percentile 24-hour runoff event,5 OR Now 2. Flow -based BMPs shall he designed to mitigate (infiltrate, filter, or treat) either: i. The maximum flow rate of runoff produced from a rainfall intensity of 0.2 inch of rainfall per hour for each hour of a storrn event; or 4. This volume is not a single volume to be applied to all of San Diego County. The size of the 85th percentile storm event is different for various parts of the County. National City has calculated the 85th percentile storm event using local rain data. In addition, isopluvial maps contained in the County of San Diego Hydrology Manual may be used to extrapolate rainfall data to areas where insufficient data exists. If isopluvial maps are selected, Copermittees shall describe their method for using isopluvial maps in their Jurisdictional SUSMP. 5. Under this volume criterion, hourly rainfall data may he used to calculate the 85th percentile storm event, where each storm event is identified by its separation from other storm events by at least six hours of no rain. If hourly rainfall data is selected, National City shall describe the method using hourly rainfall data in its Jurisdictional SUSMP. Page 29 ii. The maximum flow rate of runoff produced by the 85th percentile hourly rainfall intensity, as determined from the local historical rainfall record, multiplied by a factor of two; or iii. The maximum flow rate of runoff, as determined from the local historical rainfall record, that achieves approximately the same reduction in pollutant loads and flows as achieved by mitigation of the 85th percentile hourly rainfall intensity multiplied by a factor of two. Limited Exclusions: 1. Proposed restaurants, where the land area for development or redevelopment is less than 5,000 square feet, are excluded from the numerical sizing criteria requirements listed in Section VI.2.c, Step 8. 2. Where significant redevelopment results in an increase of less than 50 percent of the impervious surfaces of a previously existing development, and the existing development was not subject to SUSMP requirements, the numeric sizing criteria discussed in Section V1.2.c, Step 8 shall apply only to the addition, and not to the entire development. Step 9: Locate BMPs Near Pollutant Sources Structural treatment control storm water BMPs should be implemented close to pollutant sources to minimize costs and maximize pollutant removal prior to runoff entering receiving waters. Such BMPs may be located on- or off -site, he used singly or in combination, or be shared by multiple new developments, pursuant to the following requirements: 1. All structural treatment control BMPs shall be so located as to infiltrate, filter, and/or treat the required runoff volume or flow prior to its discharge to any receiving water body supporting beneficial uses; 2. Multiple post -construction structural treatment control BMPs for a single priority development project shall collectively be designed to comply with the design standards of Step 8; 3. Shared storm water BMPs shall be operational prior to the use of any dependent development or phase of development. The shared BMPs shall only be required to treat the dependent developments or phases of development that are in use; 4. Interim storm water BMPs that provide equivalent or greater treatment than is required by Section 3.a may be implemented by a dependent development until each shared BMP is operational. If interim BMPs are selected, the BMPs shall remain in use until permanent BMPs arc operational. Step 10: Restrictions on Use of Infiltration BMPs Three factors significantly influence the potential for urban runoff to contaminate ground water. They are: (i) pollutant mobility; (ii) pollutant abundance in urban runoff, and, (iii); soluble fraction of pollutant. The risk of contamination of groundwater may be reduced by pretreatment Page 30 of urban runoff A discussion of limitations and guidance for infiltration practices is contained in Potential Groundwater Contamination from Intentional and Non -Intentional Stormwater Infiltration, Report No. EPA/600/R-94/051, USEPA (1994). To protect groundwater quality, National City shall apply restrictions to the use of any BMPs that are designed to primarily function as infiltration devices (such as infiltration trenches and infiltration hasins). As additional ground water basin data is obtained, National City may develop additional restrictions on the use of any BMPs that allow incidental infiltration. At a minimum, the use of structural treatment BMPs designed to primarily function as infiltration devices shall meet or observe the following conditions6: I. Urban runoff from commercial developments shall undergo pretreatment to remove both physical and chemical contaminants, such as sedimentation or filtration, prior to infiltration. 2. All dry weather !lows shall be diverted from infiltration devices except for those non - storm water discharges authorized pursuant to 40 CFR 122.26(d)(2)(iv)(B)(1): diverted stream flows, rising ground waters, uncontaminated ground water infiltration [as defined at 40 CFR 35.2005(20)1 to storm water conveyance systems, uncontaminated pumped ground water, foundation drains, springs, water from crawl space pumps, footing drains, air conditioning condensation, flow from riparian habitats and wetlands, water line flushing, landscape irrigation, discharges from potable water sources other than water main breaks, irrigation water, individual residential car washing, and dechlorinated swimming pool discharges. 3. Pollution prevention and source control BMPs shall be implemented at a level appropriate to protect groundwater quality al sites where infiltration structural treatment BMPs are to be used. 4. The vertical distance from the base of any infiltration structural treatment BMP to the seasonal high groundwater mark shall be at least 10 feet or as determined on an individual, site-specilic basis by the (.'opermittee. Where groundwater does not support beneficial uses, this vertical distance criterion may be reduced, provided groundwater quality is maintained. 5. The soil through which infiltration is to occur shall have physical and chemical characteristics (such as appropriate cation exchange capacity, organic content, clay content, and infiltration rate) that are adequate for proper infiltration durations and treatment of urban runoff for the protection of groundwater beneficial uses. 6. Infiltration structural treatment BMPs shall not be used for areas of industrial or light industrial activity; areas subject to high vehicular traffic (25,000 or greater average daily traffic on main roadway or 15,000 or more average daily traffic on any intersecting roadway); automotive repair shops; car washes; fleet storage areas (bus, truck, etc.); nurseries; and other high threat to water quality land uses and activities as designated by National City in its SUSMP. 6. These conditions do not apply to structural treatment BMPs which allow incidental infiltration and are not designed to primarily function as infiltration devices (such as grassy swales, detention basins, vegetated buffer strips, constructed wetlands, etc.) Page 31 7. 'i'he horizontal distance between the base of any infiltration structural BMP and any water supply wells shall be 100 feet or as determined on an individual, site -specific basis by National City. Where infiltration BMPs are authorized, their performance shall be evaluated for impacts on groundwater quality. In developing the Jurisdictional SUSMP, National City shall develop additional restrictions on the use of treatment control BMPs that are designed to primarily function as infiltration devices. National City shall consider the Section D.1.g. permit requirements to control the contribution of pollutants from one portion of the watershed to another portion of the watershed through interagency agreements among the Coperniittees. In those instances where National City determines that implementation of proposed infiltration BMPs within their jurisdiction has a potential impact to groundwater quality in another jurisdiction, National City will require a notification to by those proposing such use, in addition to requiring the above protection measures. 3. PROVIDE PROOF OF ONGOING STORM WATER BMP MAINTENANCE National City shall not consider structural BMPs "effective," and therefore shall not accept storm water BMPs as meeting the MEP standard, unless a mechanism is in place that will ensure ongoing long-term maintenance of all structural BMPs. This mechanism may he provided by National City or be required by the project proponent. As part of project review, if a project proponent is required to include interim or permanent structural BMPs in project plans. National City shall require that the applicant to provide verification of maintenance requirements through such means as may be appropriate, at the discretion of National City, including, but not limited to covenants, legal agreements, maintenance agreements, and/or conditional use permits. Maintenance Mechanisms 1. Public entity maintenance: National City may approve a public or acceptable quasi - public entity (e.g., the County Flood Control District, or annex to an existing assessment district, an existing utility district, a state or federal resource agency, or a conservation conservancy) to assume responsibility for maintenance, repair and replacement of the BMP. Unless acceptable to National City, public entity maintenance agreements shall ensure estimated costs are front -funded or reliably guaranteed, (e.g., through a trust fund, assessment district fees, bond, letter of credit or similar means). in addition, National City may seek protection from liability by appropriate releases and indemnities. National City shall have the authority to approve storm water BMPs proposed for transfer to any other public entity within its jurisdiction before installation. National City shall be involved in the negotiation of maintenance requirements with any other public entities accepting maintenance responsibilities within their respective jurisdictions; and in negotiations with the resource agencies responsible for issuing permits for the construction and/or maintenance of the facilities. National City must be identified as a third party beneficiary empowered to enforce any such maintenance agreement within their respective jurisdictions. Page 32 2. Project proponent agreement to maintain storm water BMPs: National City may enter into a contract with the project proponent obliging the project proponent to maintain, repair and replace the storm water BMP as necessary into perpetuity. Security or performance bonds may be required. 3. Assessment districts: National City may approve an Assessment District or other funding mechanism created by the project proponent to provide funds for storm water BMP maintenance, repair and replacement on an ongoing basis. Any agreement with such a District shall he subject to the Public Entity Maintenance Provisions above. 4. Lease provisions: in those cases where National City holds title to the land in question, and the land is being leased to another party for private or public use, National City may assure storm water BMP maintenance, repair and replacement through conditions in the lease. 5. Conditional use permits: For discretionary projects only, National City may assure maintenance of storm water BMPs through the inclusion of maintenance conditions in the conditional use permit. Security may or performance bond may be required. 6. Alternative mechanisms: National City may accept alternative maintenance mechanisms if such mechanisms are as protective those listed above. Verification Mechanisms For discretionary projects, National City -approved methods of stonn water BMP maintenance shall be incorporated into the project's permit, and shall be consistent with permits issued by resource agencies before approval of discretionary permits. For projects requiring only ministerial permits, National City approved method of storm water BMP maintenance shall be incorporated into the permit conditions heforc the issuance of any ministerial permits. In all instances, the project proponent shall provide proof of execution of National City approved method of maintenance repair and replacement heforc the issuance of construction approvals. Public projects that are not required to obtain National City permits shall be required and be responsible for ensuring that National City approved methods of storm water BMP maintenance, repair and replacement is executed prior to the commencement of construction. For all properties, the verification mechanism will include the project proponent's signed statement, as part of the project application, accepting and guaranteeing responsibility for all structural RMP maintenance, repair and replacement, until a National City approved entity agrees to assume responsibility for structural BMP maintenance, repair and replacement. Maintenance Requirements 1. Operation & Maintenance (O&M) Plan: National City shall ensure that a copy of an Operation & Maintenance (O&M) plan, prepared by the project proponent satisfactory to National City, is attached to the approved maintenance agreement, which describes the designated responsible party to manage the storm water BMP(s), employee's training program and duties, operating schedule, maintenance frequency, routine service schedule, specific maintenance activities, copies of resource agency permits, and any other necessary activities. At a minimum, maintenance agreements shall require the inspection Page 33 and servicing of all stnictural BMPs on an annual basis. The project proponent or National City approved maintenance entity shall complete and maintain O&M forms to document all maintenance requirements. Parties responsible for the O&M plan shall retain records for at least 5 years. These documents shall be made available to National City for inspection upon request at any time. 2. Access Easement/Agreement: As part of the maintenance mechanism selected above, National City shall require an executed access easement that is binding on the land throughout the life of the project, or until such time that the storm water BMP requiring access is replaced. 4. WAIVER OF STRUCTURAL TREATMENT BMP REQUIREMENTS National City may provide for a project to be waived from the requirement of implementing structural treatment BMPs (Section VI.2.c, "Design to Treatment Control BMP Standards") if infeasibility can he established. National City shall only grant a waiver of infeasibility when all available structural treatment BMPs have been considered and rejected as infeasible. National City shall notify the Regional Board within 5 days of each waiver issued and shall include the name of the person granting each waiver. Waivers may only he granted from structural treatment BMP and structural treatment BMP sizing requirements. Priority development projects, whether or not granted a waiver may not cause or contribute to an exceedance of water quality objectives. Pollutants in runoff from projects granted a waiver must still he reduced to the maximum extent practicable. National City will implement a waiver program or at its option also develop a SUSMP waiver impact fee program to require project proponents who have received waivers to transfer the savings in cost, or a proportionate share thereof, as determined by the Copermittec, to a storm water mitigation fund. National City shall notity the RWQCB if a SUSMP waiver impact fee program is developed pursuant to this model SUSMP. SUSMP waiver impact fee program set out in jurisdictional SUSMP submissions, or in supplemental submissions if multiple Copermittees establish a joint mitigation fund program for that watershed may he substituted. The Jointly Developed by San Diego Copermitees SUSMP does not preclude National City from imposing any other fees or charges on development projects that are permitted by law, or from managing or expending the monies received from such non-SUSMP programs in any other manner authorized by law. Page 34 APPENDIX A STORM WATER BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES The following are a list of BMPs to minimize the introduction of pollutants of concern that may result in significant impacts to receiving waters.

SUSMPs include requirements to implement pollutant source controls, to incorporate site design features, and to infiltrate or treat using structural control measures a portion of the storm water runoff to be generated by the new development or redevelopment project. The City of San Diego's Storm Water Pollution Prevention Program (Storm Water Program) developed, through collaboration with the Regional Water Quality Control Board (Regional Board), the development industry, and environmental organizations, a process designed to provide more efficient, integrated storm water treatment, resulting in water quality improvements more quickly. This process is called the Localized Equivalent Area Drainage method or "LEAD" method. Fundamental to the I.F.AD method is the protection of receiving water quality and support of designated beneficial uses through implementation of structural treatment control measures, also known as Best Management Practices (BMPs), to the maximum extent practicable. The LEAD method provides numerous benefits: • Promotes an integrated, watershed -based storm water treatment by treating runoff from entire sub -drainages once. • Protects receiving water quality and supports designated beneficial uses through implementation of structural BMPs to the maximum extent practicable. • Provides for accelerated benefits to receiving waters through implementation of structural BMPs in advance of new development or redevelopment projects. • Provides the flexibility required for projects being implemented in developed areas of the City where existing infrastructure limits opportunities for efficient BMP implementation. • Provides increased and more cost-effective opportunities for BMPs to reside in the public domain where BMP operation and maintenance can be assured. • Promotes efficient and integrated implementation of regional solutions in lieu of end -of - pipe solutions. II. LEAD Method — Overview Key aspects for consideration of the LEAD method include the following: • The LEAD method is applicable to infrll development and redevelopment projects located within existing developed areas. Page 42 • The LEAD method is applicable when implementation of BMPs to treat the runoff from an entire watershed or drainage area that would not otherwise require treatment is more feasible, practical, or beneficial to receiving waters than implementation of BMPs to treat the runoff from an individual project's footprint. • The LEAD method drainage area must be treated prior to discharging to a receiving water supporting beneficial uses. • All development and redevelopment projects subject to regulation under the SUSMP and which are qualified for the LEAD method must continue to address pollutants and conditions of concern at the project site through site design and source control: only the treatment control BMP requirements would be met at the alternative LEAD watershed. All development and redevelopment projects subject to regulation under the SUSMP are required to assess the pollutants and conditions of concern associated with the proposed project, and to address these pollutants and conditions through site design, source control, and treatment control BMPs. When the LEAD method is elected, estimates of pollutant load reductions obtained by treating the runoff from the project footprint in accordance with the SUSMP are made to quantify the reduction goal for the project. Then, an alternative treatment area is identified where an equivalent or greater pollutant Load reduction can be obtained. The alternative treatment areas must meet the following requirements: • Located within the proximity of the project. • Discharge to the same receiving water as the project. • Provide for equivalent or greater pollutant load reduction than at the project site. • Located in a drainage basin where no other requirement for treatment exists and treat the entire flow from the drainage basin. • BMPs must be implemented and operational before the project is complete. • Treat runoff from an area equivalent or greater than the project footprint. • Treat runoff from an equivalent or greater impervious area than the project. In all cases, the pollutant load reductions obtainable at the alternative LEAD method treatment area must be greater than that obtained at the project site. III. LEAD Method Pilot Study The City of San Diego proposes to conduct a pilot study to test the LEAD method and to determine the ability of the LEAF) method to promote and to achieve the pollution control objectives of the Municipal Permit. The City of San Diego's Storm Water Pollution Prevention Program is proposed as the pilot study lead agency and will be responsible for carrying out all elements of the study. Key attributes of the pilot study include the following: Page 43 • Eligible projects would be limited to areas located within existing developed areas of the City of San Diego. Projects would he limited to urbanized areas to ensure potential LEAD watersheds would not drain into receiving waters supporting beneficial uses prior to treatment at the LEAD method BMP location. • Eligible projects will be limited to projects permitted by the City of San Diego to ensure adequate oversight by the City of San Diego. • A LEAD method pilot study annual report will he submitted to the Regional Board each year of the study. The annual report will include a summary of progress of the pilot study over the previous year, changes proposed for the next year, and lists of projects where the method was applied, including a discussion of the results for each project. The annual report will keep the Regional Board apprised of the progress and results of the pilot study. The remainder of this pilot study proposal describes a proposed methodology that would be used to develop a project under the LEAD method. The document also presents a proposed methodology for completing the details of the methodology through collaboration between the City, the Regional Board, the development industry, and environmental organizations. IV. LEAD Methodology The general methodology for developing a project under the LEAD method is described in this section and illustrated in Figure 1. Step 1 — Determine Project Pollutant Reduction Treatment Goal la — Identify Pollutants and Conditions of Concern Using the process identified in the Final Model SUSMP and repeated in the City's Local SUSMP, determine whether the project would generate pollutants and/or conditions of concern. This step includes: • Identify proposed project type or category and anticipated and potential pollutants generated (SUSMP Section VI.l.a). • Identify pollutants of concern in the receiving waters to which the project would discharge (SUSMP Section VI.1 b and c). • identify those constituents that are potentially generated from the project or land use type and are pollutants of concern in the receiving waters. These are the pollutants of concern for this project. If project would discharge to receiving water that does not have specific listed pollutants of concern, select representative pollutants for the project category as shown in Table 1 of the SUSMP. Determine if project qualifies for the LEAD method. For a project to qualify for the LEAD method, it must meet all of the following criteria: Page 44 • The LEAD method is applicable to infill development and redevelopment projects located within existing developed areas of the City of San Diego where acceptable potential LEAD sub -drainages are located in the project's imtnediate vicinity. • The LEAD method is applicable when implementation of BMPs to treat the runoff from an entire watershed or drainage area that would not otherwise require treatment is more feasible, practical, or beneficial to receiving waters than implementation of BMPs to treat the runoff from an individual project's footprint. • The LEAD method is limited to projects within and permitted by the City of San Diego. • The project must propose adequate site design and source controls in the original project design. 1b — Estimate Project Site Pollutant Loading Estimate the pollutant loading for the developed qualifying project based on proposed site land use, characterization data, and water quality design volume. This includes: • Delineate project drainage area into land use types. Determine the water quality design volume for each land use type based on drainage areas, impervious factors, runolTcocfcient, and the methods prescribed in the SUSMP. • Determine representative pollutant event mean concentration for each pollutant of concern and land use type using Table A (to be developed). Calculate Average Pollutant Loading = Event Mean Concentration x Water Quality Design Volume (repeat for each pollutant of concern). lc — Determine Candidate Treatment Control BMPs for Project t Ising the process identified in the SUSMP, and the pollutants of concern identified in Step la, select appropriate BMPs from either Table 2 - Standard Storm Water BMP Selection Matrix, or Table 3 — Enhanced Treatment Control BMP Selection Matrix. The BMP selection should take into account both the pollutants of concern and site factors. 1d — Determine Pollutant Reductions Calculate the pollutant Toad reduction resulting from the selected BMPs for each of the pollutants for which pollutant loadings were determined under Step lb. This includes: • Determine the average percentage pollutant reduction for the BMPs using "fable B (to be developed). • Apply the pollutant load percent reduction to the average pollutant load estimate developed under Step lb to determine the average Load reduction with BMPs. This average Toad reduction is the minimum pollutant reduction treatment goal for an alternative LEAD method treatment area. Page 45 Step 2 — Evaluate LEAD Method Treatment Area 2a — Determine LEAD Project Characteristics Locations for candidate LEAD method BM Ps will be identified in master drainage plans and will drain to the same receiving water as the qualifying project(s). Once the LEAD method treatment area is selected from the master drainage plan, key characteristics of the LEAD method treatment arca watershed/sub-watershed must be determined. This includes: ■ Existing land use(s) and area(s) and impervious factor. • Drainage area. ■ Rainfall characteristics. 2b — Determine Water Quality Design Volume Estimate the water quality design volume fin the LEAD method treatment area using the methods prescribed in the SUSMP. This includes: • Delineate project drainage area into land use types. • Determine the water quality design volume for each land use type based on drainage areas, impervious factors, runolfcoefficient, and the methods prescribed in the SUSMP. 2c — Determine Loading for LEAD Method Treatment Area Pollutants of Concern Determine representative pollutant event mean concentration for each pollutant of concern and land use type using Table A (to be developed). Calculate Average Pollutant Loading = Event Mean Concentration x Water Quality Design Volume (repeat for each pollutant of concern). This calculation must be made for the potential LEAD method treatment area for the same pollutants of concern identified in Step 1 a for the project site. 2d — Determine Candidate Treatment Control BMPs for LEAD Method Treatment Area LEAD method treatment area BMPs will be identified in master drainage plans. The BMPs identified in the master drainage plans will take into account the pollutants of concern identified in Step 1 a, and will have been selected from either Table 2 - Standard Storm Water BMP Selection Matrix, or Table 3 — Enhanced Treatment Control BMP Selection Matrix. 2e — Determine Pollutant Reductions Calculate the pollutant load reduction resulting from the selected LEAD method treatment area BMPs for each of the pollutants for which average pollutant loadings were determined under Step 2c. This includes: • Detemtinc the average percentage pollutant reduction for the BMPs using Table B (to be developed). Page 46 • Apply the pollutant load percent reduction to the average pollutant Toad estimate developed under Step 2c to determine the average load reduction with the BMPs for each of the pollutants. 2f — Compare LEAD Method Treatment Area with Qualifying Project Requirements Compare the pollutant load reduction for the LEAD method treatment area with the pollutant reduction treatment goal for the qualifying project determined under Step 1 d: • If LEAD method Treatment Area Pollutants of Concern I .oad < Project Pollutants of Concern Load, repeat process with another LEAD site. • If LEAD method Treatment Area Pollutants of Concern Load = Project Pollutants of Concern Load, LEAD method Treatment Area is acceptable — Implement BMPs at LEAD method treatment area. • If LEAD method Treatment Area Pollutants of Concern Load % Project Pollutants of Concern Load, LEAD method Treatment Area is acceptable -- implement RMPs at LEAD method treatment area. While the comparison must be made for all pollutants of concern, there will typically be one pollutant of concern that will govern the comparison for any given combination of qualifying and LEAD project characteristics. V. LEAD Method Pilot Study Evaluation Fundamental to the LEAD method pilot study is the annual evaluation of the program. The City of San Diego proposes to develop the monitoring and evaluation methodology with San Diego BayKeeper, the American Public Works Association, and technical experts. The methodology would include a descriptive, qualitative component to evaluate indirect measures, which would minimally include the factors listed below. If funding becomes available, the evaluation methodology would include monitoring of the LEAD watershed and a similar watershed with treatment of an individual project site. As lead agency responsible for carrying out the pilot study, the City of San Diego's Storm Water Pollution Prevention Program will report the results of the program evaluation in an annual report to the Regional Board. The annual program report will include the following elements: • Listing and description of project(s) to date where the LEAD method was applied. The listing will include the name and location of each project site and associated LEAD method trcatment area. The description will include for each project site and associated LEAD method treatment area: identification of receiving waters; identification of pollutants and conditions of concern; a tabulation of post -project land use; a tabulation of pollutant loading estimates for each pollutant of concern, both without and with BMPs; a listing of the maintenance requirements and evaluation of how effectively the requirements have been fulfilled; and a listing of site design, source control, and structural treatment control BMPs implemented at the project site or LEAD method treatment area. Page 47 • l.isting and description of projects currently in the planning stage that are being evaluated for application of the LEAD method during the next 12-month period, where these are known at the time the annual report is submitted. • Proposed changes in the LEAD method to be implemented during the next 12-month period. The primary criterion for evaluating the effectiveness of the LEAD method will be to compare the loading of pollutants of concern that are removed at LEAD method treatment areas compared to pollutants of concern that would have been removed at the project site. A secondary criterion for evaluating the effectiveness of the LEAD method will be to compare the timing of BMPs implemented under the LEAD method with the timing under which BMPs might have been implemented outside the program. In general, the LEAD method will be considered to be effective when, 1) pollutant of concern loadings removed as a result of application of the LEAD method exceed loadings that would have been removed at the project site, and 2) BMPs are implemented in advance of the timing that would have been required without the LEAD method. Additional criteria for evaluating the effectiveness of the LEAI) method will be developed as part of the pilot study and will he discussed in the first annual report. VI. LEAD Method Issues to be Further Developed This LEAD method pilot study proposal provides a detailed framework for discussion between the City, the Regional Board, the development industry, and environmental organizations toward creating an acceptable LEAD method program. In addition to reaching agreement on the overall framework, several key issues will require significant additional development during the initial implementation of the pilot study. Several specific topics include: • Establishing land use or project category based event mean concentrations. • Establishing BMP performance standards for common BMP types. • Determining how to compare a LEAD method treatment area with a qualifying project when one or both projects propose a flow -based BMP methodology. Each of these is briefly discussed further. Establishing Event Mean Concentrations for Calculating Pollutant Loads In order to calculate pollutant loads, typical event mean concentrations for the potential pollutants of concern must be established for land uses and/or project categories to populate a table such as the suggested 'fable A. • For a number of the common land uses, sufficient land -use based monitoring has been conducted within San Diego County and throughout Southern California (e.g., data compiled by the Southern California Coastal Watershed Research Project) that a set of reasonable values for use in equivalent calculations can be established for a number of the potential pollutants of concern. This is true for such pollutants as total suspended Page 4t' sediment, nutrients, heavy metals, oxygen demanding substances (e.g., biological oxygen demand or carbonaceous oxygen demand), oil and grease, and certain indicator bacteria. o Data on other organic compounds is by and large below detection limits and it would be difficult to establish meaningful factors, so it is recommended that this not be included in an analysis. Data on pesticides is highly variable and often non -detectable and would be difficult to establish meaningful values. Data on trash is just now beginning to he compiled and will be highly variable. It is assumed that both a qualifying project and a LEAD method treatment area would incorporate trash/debris removal as part of the overall plan, and therefore calculating trash loads is also not recommended. Establishing BMP Performance In order to calculate pollutant loads, removal performance data for the potential pollutants of concern must be established for BMP categories to populate a table such as the suggested Table B. • Sufficient data has been published for both operating BMPs and pilot plant research from a number of sources throughout the country that a set of reasonable values for use in equivalent calculations can be established for a number of the potential pollutants of concern. This is true for such pollutants as total suspended sediment, nutrients, heavy metals, oxygen demanding substances (e.g., biological oxygen demand and carbonaceous oxygen demand), oil and grease and to a lesser extent certain indicator bacteria. • BMP performance data tier removal of other organic compounds suggests performance is by and large below detection limits and it would be difficult to establish meaningtirl factors, so it is recornrnended that this not he included in an analysis. • BMP performance data for the removal of low levels of pesticides is generally not available. • Data on trash removal through BMPs is just now beginning to be compiled and will be highly variable. It is assumed that both a qualifying project and a LEAD method treatment area would incorporate trash/debris removal as part of the overall plan, and therefore calculating trash loads is also not recommended. Comparing Flow -Based BMPs If a flow -based BMP approach (e.g. vegetated swales, biofilters, hydrodynamic separator) is proposed for either the qualifying project or the LEAD method treatment area, a direct calculation of volume of runoff treated and pollutant load reduced is substantially more complex than for volume - based BMPs (e.g., detention, retention). Methods can be established by evaluating hydrologic data and to develop an approximate relationship between maximum Clow treatment capacity and estimated volume treated or continuous simulation models such as the Storage Treatment Overflow Model could be run for each site.

Explanation 1. 2. Amended Ordinance Ordinance A-200(Rev .7/03) EXPLANATION: On January 24, 2007, The San Diego Regional Water Quality Control Board issued the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit No. CAS0108758, Order No. R9-2007-001 which required Changes to chapter 14.22 Chapter, STORM WATER MANAGEMENT AND DISCHARGE CONTROL. The main proposed changes are summarized below: • General editorial formatting for capitalization, punctuation, etc. • Updated definitions to match those in the Municipal Permit and/or to match current industry standards. • Updated references to code sections and RWQCB Order numbers where necessary. • Generally changed the language in sections related to industrial and commercial businesses from "facilities" to "dischargers". This change allows the requirements to apply to mobile businesses in addition to stationary businesses, as required by the new Municipal Permit. • Previously the code had different levels of best management practice (BMP) requirements based on the priority of the discharger. This distinction has largely been removed in the new Municipal Permit, so the code was revised to make BMPs required whenever they are applicable regardless of the prioritization of the discharger. • Categories of regulated dischargers were updated to match those in the new Municipal Permit. • Activities and business types subject to activity specific BMPs were revised to meet new Municipal Permit requirements and for clarity. • Removed industrial monitoring requirement for high priority industrial facilities, as the Municipal Permit no longer has this requirement. • Added text that gives authority to require additional controls for residential, commercial, industrial, and construction sites or activities that are discharging to 303(d) listed areas or ESAs. • Added text requiring property owners to conduct and submit annual verification of maintenance of treatment control BMPs.

These guidance documents may set out additional compliance alternatives that, in specified circumstances, can provide the same environmental protection that is afforded by the BMPs required by this chapter. These guidance documents may also identify practices that have been determined by the authorized enforcement official to be additional BMPs that may be implemented for land disturbance activity and land development activity to prevent or control pollution to the MEP. Authorized enforcement officials may also take these guidance documents into account when determining whether any practices used by a discharger or proposed in a grading plan, a storm water pollution prevention plan (SWPPP), an enforcement settlement offer or any other submittal to the City, are BMPs that will prevent or control pollution to the MEP. These case -specific discretionary decisions may involve circumstances that were not anticipated when general guidance documents were prepared. Therefore, these guidance documents do not confer rights on dischargers in these circumstances and do not constrain the discretion of authorized enforcement officials. Where appropriate and provided the same protection is provided to the environment, authorized enforcement • officials may depart from these guidance documents when making case -specific decisions authorized by this chapter. 14.22.050 Reduction of pollutants in storm water --Minimum requirements. Any person engaged in activities, which will or may result in pollutants entering the City storm water conveyance system shall undertake all measures to reduce such pollutants to the MEP.

In non -emergency situations, a prior written determination is required to exempt a discharge. E. On -site Wastewater Systems. Discharges to the subsurface from permitted properly functioning on -site wastewater systems are not prohibited by this chapter. F. Exemptions Not Absolute. Any discharge category described in subsection (B) above that is a significant source of pollutant to waters of the United States shall be prohibited from entering the storm water conveyance system or shall be subjected to a requirement to implement additional BMPs to reduce pollutants in that discharge to the MEP. Such prohibitions shall be effective on a schedule specked by an authorized enforcement official in a written notice to the discharger. That schedule may take into account the nature and severity of any effects caused by the discharge; and the time required to design, engineer, fund, procure, construct and make appropriate BMPs operational. 14 14.22.090 Best management practice requirements and general requirements applicable to all discharges. A. Applicable Requirements. All dischargers in the City must comply with the generally applicable prohibitions and requirements in Sections 14.22.010 through 14.22.080 of this chapter and must also comply with any other parts of this chapter (including relevant parts of the manual) that are applicable to the type of facility or activity owned or operated by that discharger. B. Minimum BMPs for All Dischargers. All dischargers in the City must install, implement and maintain at least the following minimum BMPs: 1. Eroded Soils. Prior to the rainy season, dischargers must remove or secure any significant accumulations of eroded soils from slopes previously disturbed by clearing or grading, if those eroded soils could otherwise enter the storm water conveyance system or receiving waters during the rainy season. 2.

No such product may be disposed of or rinsed into receiving waters or the storm water conveyance system. C. Inspection, Maintenance, Repair and Upgrading of BMPs. BMPs at manned facilities must be inspected by the discharger before and following predicted rain events. BMPs at unmanned facilities must be inspected by the discharger at least once during the rainy season and at least once between each rainy season. These BMPs must be maintained so that they continue to function as designed. BMPs that fail must be repaired as soon as it is safe to do so. If the failure of a BMP indicates that the BMPs in use are inappropriate or inadequate to the circumstances, the BMPs must be modified or upgraded to prevent any further failure in the same or similar circumstances. D. Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan. An authorized enforcement official may require a commercial, industrial or land disturbance activity discharger to prepare and submit a SWPPP for approval by that official if: 1. The discharger does not come into compliance with this chapter after one or more warnings (or other enforcement action) that BMPs are inadequate or are not being adequately maintained; or 2. The facility or activity at issue is a significant source of contaminants to receiving waters despite compliance with this chapter. Any discharger required to submit and to 15 obtain approval of a SWPPP shall install, implement and maintain the BMPs specified in the approved SWPPP. The SWPPP shall identify the BMPs that will be used by the discharger to prevent or control pollution of storm water to the MEP. If the facility is an industrial facility, the SWPPP submitted to the City shall at a minimum meet the requirements of the state NPDES general industrial storm water permit. If the activity at issue is a construction or land disturbance activity, the SWPPP submitted to the City shall at a minimum meet the requirements of the state NPDES general construction storm water permit. If a facility required to submit a SWPPP to the City discharges non -storm water to groundwater, the facility shall obtain a RWQCB permit as required by the state water code and shall describe the requirements of that permit in the SWPPP. Whenever submission of a SWPPP is required pursuant to this chapter, an authorized enforcement official may take existing City BMPs into account when determining whether the practices proposed in the SWPPP are BMPs that will prevent or control pollution to the required level of MEP. E. Notification of Spills, Releases and Illegal Discharges. Spills, releases and illegal discharges of pollutants to receiving waters or to the storm water conveyance system shall be reported by the discharger as required by all applicable state and federal laws. In addition, any such spills, releases and illegal discharges with the potential to endanger health, safety or the environment shall be reported to the directors within twenty-four hours of discovery of the spill, release or discharge. If safe to do so, necessary actions shall be taken to contain and minimize the spill, release or illegal discharge. F. Sampling, Testing, Monitoring and Reporting. Commercial, industrial or land disturbance activity dischargers shall perform the sampling, testing, monitoring and reporting required by this chapter. In addition, an authorized enforcement official may order a discharger to conduct testing or monitoring and to report the results to the City if (1) the authorized enforcement official determines that testing or monitoring is needed to determine whether BMPs are effectively preventing or reducing pollution in storm water to the MEP or to determine whether the facility is a significant source of contaminants to receiving waters; or (2) the authorized enforcement official determines that testing or monitoring is needed to assess the impacts of an illegal discharge on health, safety or the environment; or (3) an illegal discharge has not been eliminated after written notice by an authorized enforcement official; or (4) repeated violations have been documented by written notices from authorized enforcement officials; or (5) the RWQCB requires the City to provide any information related to the discharger's activities. Testing and monitoring ordered pursuant to this subsection may include the following: 1. Visual monitoring of dry weather flows, wet weather erosion and/or BMPs; 2. Visual monitoring of premises for spills or discharges; 3. Laboratory analyses of storm water or non -storm water discharges for pollutants; 4. Background or baseline monitoring or analysis; and 5. Monitoring of receiving waters or sediments that may be affected by pollutant discharges by the discharger (or by a group of dischargers including the discharger). The authorized enforcement official may direct the manner in which the results of required testing and monitoring are reported and may determine when required sampling, testing or monitoring may be discontinued. G. Mitigation, All illegal discharges must be mitigated within a reasonable period of time to correct or compensate for all damage to the environment caused by the illegal discharge. The authorized enforcement official shall determine whether mitigation measures proposed or completed by the discharger meet this standard. The authorized enforcement official shall require the discharger to submit a mitigation plan and schedule by a specified date prior to taking action and to submit a summary of completed mitigation by a specified date. 16 14.22.100 Additional minimum best management practice requirements for residential activities and facilities.

City Attorney (619) 336-4220 Fax: (619) 336-4327 TDD: (619) 336-1615 TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: City Attorney Finance 1)irectbr SUBJECT: Transfer of Taxicab Medallions DATE: January 28, 2008 I.N'tRODUCTION At the City Council meeting of December 18, 2007, the Council was asked to approve the transfer of six taxicab medallions from Yellow Cab to three different taxicab companies that currently do not have taxicab permits issued by the City. The three companies to which the medallions were to be transferred Leonardo Cab, Golis Cab, and Jano Cab — had been selected by Yellow Cab to receive the medallions. The City Council denied the requested transfer of medallions, and directed that staff work with Yellow Cab to devise a method for the transfer of medallions that would ensure that the medallions were available to other taxicab permittees. BACKGROUND In order to operate taxicabs in the City, an individual or entity must obtain a taxicab permit from the City. Specifically, each permit holder is then issued a limited number of medallions approved by the City Council. A medallion is then attached to each taxicab owned by the permit holder. The procedure for the transfer of medallions from an existing holder of a taxicab permit to a new permittee is virtually the same procedure for applying for a new permit that requires completion of an application accompanied by a $3,000 processing fee, permit transfer request fee of $200, and $300 for each permit in excess of one. This procedure is set forth in Section 11.70.030 of the National City Municipal Code. DISCUSSION Subsequent to the December 18 meeting, the City Attorney and Finance Director met with Mr. Akbar Majid, the local manager for Yellow Cab. Mr. Majid explained that it had been his intention to transfer six medallions which were not being used by Yellow Cab to taxicab operators chosen for their reliability and who had existing clientele. Yellow Cab was not to 1 ® Recycled Paper use inore of the medallions it had been issued, rather than transferring them to other operators, Mr. Majid stated that under National City's current fee schedule, the cost of operating additional taxicabs was too costly. When the City took over the administration of taxicabs fi-om MTS in 2004, most of the fees charged by MTS for various administrative actions (e.g., permit issuance, annual inspections) were carried over by the City. For several years, California statutory and constitutional law has required that a city fee, in order to be a valid fee rather than a tax, cannot exceed the cost incurred by the city in providing the service. Periodically, National City's fees are evaluated by an independent consultant to ensure that they qualify as valid fees. However, taxicab administrative fees have never been evaluated, and it may be an appropriate time to do so. If, as a result of such evaluation, taxicab administrative fees are lowered, taxicab permittees with unused medallions such as Yellow Cab, my decide to use the them. Subsequent to taking over taxicab administration from MTS, the City Council approved taxicab permits for the following companies with medallions: Company Medallions Yellow Cab 40 Red Cab 11 USA Cab 6 West Coast Cab 22 RV Cab 6 Total Number of Permits: 5 Total Number of Medallions: 85 The City Council has never established a limit for the number of permits and medallions to be issued in the City. Accordingly, the City Council currently has complete discretion in issuing whatever number of permits and medallions it chooses. However, a balance must be reached between issuing too many medallions, which may result in safety problems due to the number of taxicabs being regulated, and not issuing enough medallions, which may deprive the community a adequate taxicab service. Some cities establish a limit on taxicab permits and medallions based on a ratio, for example, a number of medallions per 1,000 residents. It should be noted that in some communities where the number of medallions is limited, the medallions acquire significant value, sometimes in the hundreds of thousands of dollars. If a limitation on the number of City -licensed taxicabs is to be considered, some thought should he given to whether such limitations should be focused more on the number of permits issued, or on the number of medallions issued. For example, if it is concluded that the optimum number of medallions to be issued is 100, the question becomes whether there should be 5 permits issued with 20 medallions each, or 20 permits issued with 5 medallions each. Additionally, imposing limitations upon the number of permits and medallions to be issued can create a problem when there are more applications for permits and medallions then there are permits and medallions to be issued. In such cases, permits and medallions could be issued based on a first -come, first -served basis, or upon a selection process involving an RFP, or upon a random selection process. RECOMMENDATIONS Staff recommends that the City Council direct the following actions: • Include taxicab administration fees in the fee study currently being undertaken by the City's consultant, with the possibility of these fees being revised as a result. • Staff is to investigate and report back on the advisability of limiting the number of taxicab permits and/or medallions to be issued. If establishing limits is advisable, the report will also contain recommendations concerning how to impose such limitations, and concerning the method of issuing permits and medallions when applications exceed the number of permits and medallions available.

RISK MANAGER As we discussed, the film company will have to provide evidence of the following types of insurance PRIOR to the date of the shoot: Commercial General Liability coverage with limits of at least $I M per occurrence/ $2M aggregate; The City of National City must be named as an additional insured pursuant to a separate endorsement which must be provided along with the acord form (certificate of insurance); Automobile Liability coverage (since the company will he transporting persons and equipment to the site for use in the filming) with limits of at least $1 M CSL (combined single limit), with coverage for owned, non -owned and hired ("any auto") vehicle; I'd also request that the City of National (City be named as an additional insured pursuant to a separate endorsement to be provided along with the insurance certificate -you may or may not get this since some personal lines carriers do not issue additional insured endorsements for auto liability; Workers Compensation coverage in an amount sufficient to satisfy CA statutory requirements for all employees subject to the requirement. We also require Employer's Liability coverage with limits of $ I M per accident/employee. If the filming company claims it has no employees, its principal must sign a declaration to that effect. I've attached a sample for your review/modification. 1 think Purchasing is using a NC version of this. If there are any questions re the coverages, you. may provide my contact intormation to the company and its insurance agent can contact me directly.

We will also need a contact name and number of security management personnel that can be reached at anytime their personnel are present. 2. The applicant states they have no plans to notify residents and others impacted by the event because "only impact is to Plaza Bonita tenants who are informed by Westtield Management." The police Department is requesting that the applicant and/or Westfield Management notify the residents in the Bonita area occupying the hill directly east of the Mall and those residents cast of the Mall along Sweetwater Road. Historically, special events at the Mall have created a significant amount of complaints about noise and quality of life issues from residents to the east. This is particularly the cast anytime the events are located on the east side of the Mall, such as this one is scheduled to be held. Such incidents result in a disproportionate number of calls for service to police for an event of this nature and place officers in a difficult position at finding a remedy. 3. The Department requests that the applicant or sponsor provide specific details as to measures taken to mitigate noise and light distraction that will invariably occur to residents and others in the surrounding area based upon the location the event is scheduled to be held. 4. The Department requests that no game prizes consist of alcohol and / or drug depictions. This would include painted mirrors, posters, hats, etc. containing any drug or alcoholic beverage name, logo, label, etc. This would also include any depiction or reference to drug use, intoxication, sales of drugs, etc. Further, the ring toss game or any other game or attraction should not use alcoholic beverage bottles as a part of the game structure. 2 FIRE (619) 336-4550 1.

RISK MANAGER (619) 336-4300 I've reviewed the application for the proposed use and note that the event will be held on privately owned property at Plaza Bonita. I t appears that the event was previously held there in 2006. 1 do have a couple of concerns with respect to the insurance. First, since the sponsoring organization, Christiansen Amusements, will be onsitc from February 18th through March 4th or 5th, it must provide evidence of insurance for the entire period, not just for the carnival itself. 1'he Workers' Compensation certificate should be amended to reflect coverage for the set up and tear down period. Second, since carnival vehicles will be used to transport games, rides and other equipment to and from the site, commercial automobile liability insurance with limits of at least one million dollars ($1,000,000) combined single limits (CSL) should be provided. The coverage should include owned, non -owned and hired vehicles ("any auto"). Finally, the City is named as an additional insured on the commercial general liability (CGL) coverage as noted on the certificate. We require a copy of the actual additional insured endorsement, since language on the certificate is not legally binding on the insurer. I will be happy to discuss these concerns with the organizer or its insurance agent if there are questions. Otherwise, I have no objections to the application. Let me know if you have any questions -- Ashley Fenton, Risk Manager FINANCE 336-4330 1. A $2,500.00 Bond and a $50 Inspection Fee are required for a Carnival or Circus, which has to be paid at least two weeks prior to the start date of the event. 2. A Business License is required IF monies are solicited, admittance charged or food, beverages or merchandise is sold. The organization holding this event and each vendor present at this event must have a separate business license. Vendors currently licensed by the City may operate on their existing license. 3. A list of all participating vendors (with their address, phone number and current National City business license number) is to be provided to the Revenue and Recovery Division of the Finance Department two weeks prior to the event for verification of business license numbers. 4. If any of the vendors or organizations is registered not-fbr-profit, there will be no charge for the Business License. However, a Business License certificate must be obtained for the City Revenue & Recovery Division, Business License Section. (Note: A clearance fee does apply to non-profit organizations located in National City that submit an initial business license application.) 4 Type of Event: _ Public Concert Parade _ Motion Picture Event Title: Fair _ Demonstration Grand Opening Festival Community Event Circus Block Party ,Other CC(rnt(/ s — aje&i-h'/d 8La2a 9300t fQ �'�trrl �*u l Event Location: 303o /Plaza 13emi fa.

CIIRISTIANSEN AMUSEMENTS Westfield Plaza Bonita 3030 Plaza Bonita Road, National City, CA 91950 Plaza Bonita Feb. 22 — Mar. 2, 2007 Fri. 2/22 & 2/29 5 pm to 11 pin Sat. 2/23 & 3/1 Sun. 2/24 & 3/2 1 pm to 10 pm Mon. - Thr. 2/24-28 1 pm to 1 l pm 5 pm to 10 pm Christiansen Amusements was commissioned by Westfield Shoppingtown to conduct small family camivals at its various shopping centers throughout Southern California in 2001. We annually conduct safe and successful events at throughout Southern California at their various centers. Due to construction limitations there was not a 2007 event at Plaza Bonita so February 2006 was the last time an event was held. This carnival event is targeted to reach the local connnunity 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 number selected depends on layout availability which is different from 2006. Scc the attached plot plan 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, Slide, Computer Portrait. 13) Games: Glass Pitch, Rope Ladders, Derby Race, Water Race, Grab Bag, Milk Can, Balloon Dart, Mini - Basketball, Long Range Basketball, IIi-Striker, Ring Toss, Stop Sign, others. Christiansen Amusements has made standard policy for 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 10-day 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 especially with existing center traffic patterns. 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. ww WESTERN FARS ,I,XJPINYJ P.O.

(collectively referred to a "Coperniittees"). The San Diego County Regional Airport Authority was later added as the twenty-first Copermittee. Order No. 2001-01, generally referred to as the Municipal Permit, required each Copermittee, including the City of National City (C:ity), to develop a comprehensive storm water management program known as a Jurisdictional Urban Runoff. Management Program (JURMP). The City's JURMP includes storm water management strategies ail(' protocols related to planning, construction, and existing developments. Major components include the implementation of Best Management Practices (HP11'), water quality monitoring, and educational outreach efforts. Each fiscal year, the City prepares an annual report on the implementation of its JURMP, as required by Municipal Permit Section 1.1. The following JURMP Annual Report presents the activities implemented during the 2006/2107 fiscal year (July 1, 2006 through June 30, 2007). A brief summary of each of the 11 sections of the Annual Report is presented below. Introduction The introduction presents an overview of the C:ity's storm water pollution prevention program and includes a bulleted summary of key accomplishments for the 2006/20(17 reporting period. Municipal The City continues to invest significant. resources in the further development and the implementation of its storm water management program. The City continues to implement an aggressive street sweeping schedule and MS4 maintenance schedule:, removing approximately 1,300 tons of material from street sweepin}, and 23,200 pounds of material from MS4 maintenance during 2006/2(07. Additionally, about 416 cubic yards of debris were removed during channel maintenance operations. The City dedicated 1,782 man-hours to clean 333,060 linear feet of sewer lines. Over 17,700 pounds of debris were removed during this maintenance. The City held six training sessions for municipal personnel during 2006/200%. The City also developed an educational 2(07 "Keep Our Community Clean" Calendar that was provided to various City departments in addition to the general public. Industrial/('orumercial During 2006/2007 the City inspected all high priority industrial facilities. During this reporting period, 29 complete industrial inspections midi() full commercial inspections were conducted. Visas were also made to industrial and commercial sites when warranted by public complaints, and the ( :it y ensured that such incidents were resolved satisfactorily. Based on inspection findings and complaints received by the ('ity's storm water -hotline, the (aty issued six Notices of Violation (N( Ai) to industrial facilities and 10 NOVs to commercial facilities. 1'he City continued to provide educational outreach CITY or. NAn)NAI Cr I.� iir JANUAR.'7008 2006/2007 JHMI' ANNUAL ItErnIr material to industrial and commercial businesses, and the City continued to implement a rating system to assess RMP implementation and storm water knowledge. Additionally, the City worked with its contractor, 1)-MAx, to conduct two industrial/commercial- related educational workshops, one for industrial businesses and one for automotive - related businesses. Residential Because residential areas comprise a large portion of National City, the City has pursued a number of efforts to educate and involve residents in implementing the City's JURM1' The City held a workshop for residents in the City. and provided them with a presentation and a variety of educational material, including the 2007 educational calendar. Residents of the City of National City, along with the citizens of the City of Imperial Reach and the Cil.y of Chula Vista, continue to utilize a common household hazardous waste facility. ]lie total mass of household hazardous waste collected by all three cities during this reporting period was 142,572 pounds. Similar to previous years, the City held two large item disposal events in conjunction with EDCO. Additionally two neighborhood cleanups resulted in the disposal/removal of 12 tons of trash and debris. The City maintained residential storm water awareness through educational materials, including flyers, pamphlets, and calendars, many of which were bilingual. Residents also made use of the City's Storm Water llotline to report observed storm water problems, including those iri residential neighborhoods. The City issued seven NOVs, sent 23 corrective action letters, and gave numerous verbal warnings related to complaint investigations in residential areas. Development Planning/Construction All development projects that will disturb soil are required to complete a Storm Water Requirements Applicability Checklist. The checklist helps determine requirements for post -construction IiMP implementation and whether the project will be subject to the State General ('onstructron Permit or General Industrial Permit. Regardless of which department LS initially contacted for the projects' permits, completed checklists are forwarded to the Engineering Department for sign off to ensure consistency. All construction projects subject to the General Construction Permit submitted SWi'PPs, which the City's consultant reviewed. Twelve projects subject to the City's Standard Urban Storm Water Mitigation Plan (SUSMP) Ordinance were required to submit post - construction Rh1P plans, which were also reviewed. The City regularly inspected active construction sites in its jurisdiction, including weekly inspections for high priority sites. Storni water complaints received about construction sites were aLso promptly investigated, and enforcement actions were taken where necessary. A total of three NOVs and two administrative citations were issued to contractors or developers. The City held a SUSMP workshop for the development planning community' and a construction -related workshop for construction site owners and operators. Though not required by the Municipal Permit, toward the end of the reporting period the City also inspected completed SUSMP projects for the first. blue. The City will use the results of this initial inspection effort to refine its SUSMP inspection programs in future years. Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination The main avenues through which illicit connections and illegal discharges (IC/ID) are detected are the Dry Weather Field Screening and Analytical Monitoring Program (Dry Weather Monitoring Program), the storm water hotline, and by observations made by etry Or NA IUUNAI CIrY IV .iANUARY 2008 2006/2007 JURMP ANNUAL RI-PO4 r 62 City staff. Visual observations and field screening were conducted at 15 Dry l\'eatht.r Monitoring Program sites, and water samples from over ?. i percent of the sites underwent laboratory analysis for additional parameters. when routine monitoring found a parameter above its established action level, a follow-up source identification Investigation was undertaken. Based on the results of the investigations, the City acted to eliminate the source(s) o1 pollution identified by these investigations. All 143 complaints received were documented and resolved by City staff. One sewage overflow occurred during 2006/2007 and was reported to the RW(X'B. The spill was cleaned up, and enforcement action was taken against the responsible party. All I( 7IDs detected in 2(X)6/2007 were eliminated during the reporting period. Education/Public Participation During 2(X)6/2007 the City continued to provide the general public with educational outreach material and opportunities to participate in the implementation of the storm water program. The City provided numerous training sessions and a variety of educational materrat for municipal personnel, industrial and conuuercial business owners/operators, development and construction project proponents, and residents. The City's outreach efforts were estimated to have made over 134,(XX) impressions during the reporting period. The City collaborated with I Love a Clean San Diego to stencil 30 storm drains in the City. Cleanup efforts in the (:itv, including those put on by neighborhood councils, removed approximately 14.4 tons of trash and debris. Assessment of JURMP Effectiveness The regionally developed approach to program effectiveness assessment includes program planning, IMP selection, and evaluation of six tiered levels of targeted outcomes. As the system progresses from Level 1 to level 6, targeted outcomes becoming less focused on activities conducted and more focused on changes in water quality. The City used this regionally developed approach to assess its program, incorporating some City -specific components such as historical water quality monitoring data. The ('its' has also continued to employ a numeric scoring system to assess BIVIP implementation and the level of storm water knowledge during industrial and commercial inspections. Fiscal Analysis Section 12 of this )(JRMP Annual Report presents information about the costs and funding of the City's storm water program. The 2006/2007 fiscal year expenditures were $940,000, and the proposed budget for the upcoming fiscal year is $936,000. Special Investigations In response to Dry Weather Monitoring Program results, the City initiated a more focused investigation into sources of trash and debris that might affect. the City's storm drain system. Findings of the study and the City's plans for follow-up actions are discussed in Section 13. Conclusions and Recommendations General l onclusrons and recommendations are presented to Section 14. During, 2006/2007, the City continued to improve the planning and implementation of its program and began to prepare for the new requirements of the recently reissued Municipal Permit, Order No. 2007-())01.

PREPARED BY Martin Reeder, 336-4310 DEPARTMENT Planning EXPLANATION In January 2006, the City Council approved a Tentative Subdivision Map and Zone Variance for the division of the subject property. The Tentative Map is due to expire; therefore, the current property owners are requesting an extension. The following background report describes the request in detail. Environmental Review X N/A Financial Statement N/A Approved By: Finance Director Account No. STAFF RECOMMENDATION R(� Staff recommends that the expiration date for S-2005-4 be extended by two years to January 17, 2010. BOARD ! COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION N/A ATTACHMENTS ( Listed Below) Resolution No. 1. Resolution No. 2006-6 2. Location Map 3. Applicant's letter of request A-200 (9/99) BACKGROUND REPORT In January 2006, the City Council approved a Tentative Subdivision Map and Zone Variance for the division of the property into 11 lots; 10 of the lots for the development of single-family townhomes. The remaining lot will encompass a private driveway (for access to all of the new lots), two surface parking spaces, and over 3,000 square feet of open space. The Zone Variance allows for three-story homes, where only two-story single-family homes would normally be allowed. In addition to the Zone Variance, exceptions lrom the Subdivision Ordinance were approved to allow the use of a private street, lot sizes of less than 5,000 square feet, and less than 50 feet of street frontage for each lot. All Tentative Subdivision Maps are approved with a condition allowing the applicant two years to finalize the map. As no Final Map has been recorded for the approved project, this Tentative Subdivision Map would have expired on January 17, 2008 unless extended. The Subdivision Ordinance allows applicants to request up to three time extensions for a total of 36 months. The original applicant was Cheng Capital. Sometime after the approval in 2006, the property changed hands and is now owned by PB Highland, LLC who are requesting a three year time extension. A recent site visit found the property in fair to poor condition, with some old furniture in the front yard. The homes arc noticeably deteriorated due to their age; one had a tarp on the roof to protect from an apparent leak. The driveway area is unpaved and lacks any formal parking arrangement. The area is rutted and multiple cars are parked throughout the lot.

S-2005-4/Z-2005-6 WHEREAS, application was made for approval of a tentative subdivision map for the division of a 16,675 square foot lot into eleven Tots, and a Variance for building height on a property at 2504 Highland Avenue, on property generally described as: Lots 1 to 5 inclusive and the east 20 feet of Lot 6, in Block 4 of Flora M. Kimball's Subdivision of the East Quarter of 10 Acre Lot 15 in Quarter Section 152 of the Rancho De La Nacion, in the City of National City, County of San Diego, State of Califomia, according to Map thereof No. 44, filed in the Office of the County Recorder of Said San Diego County, September 30, 1886. WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of National City considered said application at public hearing held on November 7, 2005, and by Resolution recommended conditional approval of the application; and WHEREAS, the City Council considered said application at a public hearing held on December 6, and December 20, 2005, at which time oral and documentary evidence was presented; and WHEREAS, at said public hearing the City Council considered the staff report prepared for Case File Nos. S-2005-4/Z-2005-6 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 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 that the City Council of the City of National City hereby approves the tentative subdivision map for the division of one 16,675 square foot lot into eleven Tots, and a Variance for building height on a property at 2504 Highland Avenue based on the following findings: RECOMMENDED FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL OF THE TENTATIVE SUBDIVISION MAP The proposed map is consistent with the National City General Plan and applicable specific plans, since the General Commercial (CG) General Plan /Zone designation provides for residential infill development and since the General Plan promotes home ownership opportunities. Also, the proposed subdivision is in conformance with the specific plan for the area that requires a minimum ten -foot setback along Highland Avenue. 2 Resolution No. 2006 — 6 January 17, 2006 Page 2 2. The site is physically suitable for the proposed type of development, since the proposed residential development will add to and be compatible with the urban character of the area, and there will be adequate screening and separation between the proposed residential and neighboring commercial uses. Also, the Geotechnical Investigation for the project does not identify any geologic hazards that make the site unsuitable for the proposed development. 3. The site is physically suitable for the proposed density of development, since the approximately 25.6 units per acre proposed is less than the 34.8 units per acre allowed in the CG zone, and since the site is located on a major arterial road across from an existing multi -family senior 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 there is no natural habitat nor. bodies of water on the site, and since the site is surrounded by urban development. 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. 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. 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. 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 REQUESTED EXCEPTIONS 1. The property to be divided is of such size or shape, that it is impossible or impracticable in the particular case to conform fully to the subdivision requirements, since the width (115 feet) of the site makes it impracticable to divide it consistent with the development pattern of the nearest residential subdivision. 2. The exceptions will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, welfare or be detrimental to the use of other properties in the vicinity, since the proposed subdivision and future development pattem is compatible with the adjacent commercial and residential properties. 3 Resolution No. 2006 - 6 January 17, 2006 Page 3 Granting of the exceptions is in accordance with the intent and purposes of Title 18 of the Municipal Code (Zoning), 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, 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 18. RECOMMENDED FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL OF THE REQUESTED VARIANCE 1. The requested Variance is necessary because of special circumstances applicable to the property, including location and surroundings, the strict application of Title 18 of the Municipal Code (Zoning) deprives such property of privileges enjoyed by other properties in the vicinity and under the identical zone classification, since similar properties in the CG Zoning designation, including a property directly across Highland Avenue, allow for three- story residential development for the provision of housing. 2. That the requested Variance is subject to such conditions which will assure that the adjustment for height 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, as the project will function as a multi -family project, which can be built to 35-feet in height in the CG Zone, and since the proposed project is conditioned to comply with the submitted plans that identify a 35-foot high development for the housing. 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 proposed 10- unit subdivision is a permitted use in the General Commercial Zone. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that based on the findings hereinbefore stated, said tentative subdivision map for division of one 16,675 square foot lot into eleven lots, and a Variance for building height on a property at 2504 Highland Avenue, is hereby approved subject to the following conditions: 1. This Tentative Subdivision Map authorizes the division of one lot into 11 lots, with exceptions for Tess than required street frontage, creation of a private street, lots of Tess than 5,000 square feet, and reduced front and side yard setbacks.

Most funds have remained in LAIF to meet staff's cash flow objectives. Large sums of money must remain liquid to ensure that staff does not miss opportunities to purchase land or property within the project area. For the quarter ended December 31, 2007, LAIF's return was 4.96%. The investment of debt service reserve funds, the 2004 and 2005 Tax Allocation Bonds, is controlled by the designated fiscal agent. The reserve funds account for approximately 26% of the CDC's portfolio. Federal Agency Securities account for approximately 9% of the investment portfolio. The average rate of return is 4.408% The CDC has 10% invested in Negotiable Certificates of Deposit. The average rate of return is 3.61%. The average monthly expenditures of the CDC is $889,635.00 To ensure compliance with Government Code Section 53646, the CDC must have $5,337,810.00 available to meet cash flow requirements. Staff certifies that there are sufficient funds to meet the cash flow requirements.

Prior to Caltrans beginning the decertification process, a deposit of $30,000 will be required. This will be used towards the appraisal and processing efforts. Based on the property appraisal, Caltrans will provide a property purchase price to the applicant. The following will be considered in the appraisal: pre- and post - construction property value, length of existing right-of-way to be decertified, and alternate access routes other than access route where decertification is to take place, if feasible. Please note that this purchase price is not part of the initial $30,000 deposit. There is also the possibility that a decertification may be denied. It takes approximately six months to receive an appraisal from Caltrans. • Chris Thomas, from Caltrans Design Department came up with a revised proposed Caltrans right-of-way alignment at the proposed hotel driveway if decertification is the route taken. TIA Attachment 1 RICK ENGINEERING COMPANY Telephone ConversationNolce Mail Message/Conference Report • Peter Pfander would like to set up a meeting with the Registered Land Surveyor who will be preparing the plats and Iegals for the decertification submittal package. He will provide a recent example of a decertification submittal package. • Per Caltrans, Rick Engineering Company can still re -submit plans to Caltrans, for the encroachment permit addressing all issues that do not pertain to the right-of-way issue. • Dedication and donation of property was discussed. Per John Grisafi, a dedication is a lengthy process when compared to a donation. He recommends donation but It is not something that Caltrans is supposed to persuade the applicant to do. It's the choice of the applicant to decide. There is also no cost advantage between the two. Notes: Action: Colby and Maryam, it is our recommendation to meet as soon as possible with you to discuss how you want us to proceed with the this issue. In order to proceed with the decertification process, we will need additional funds. This issue impacts timing of the encroachment permit. We have not discussed this issue with Ivar Leetma as of yet. Therefore, we suggest a meeting with all parties. ❑ .

Rick Engineering has been working closely with Caltrans to obtain all permits necessary to complete the Bay Marina Drive improvements for the Marina Gateway Hotel opening. Rick Engineering Company met with Caltrans on January 9, 2008 (Meeting Notes, Attachment 1) and learned state right-of-way denies access rights to the Marina gateway Hotel site from Bay Marina Drive. It was determined that right-of-way decertification is the fastest way to gain access rights to the Marina Gateway Hotel site from Bay Marina Drive, with a process time of approximately one year. Decertification of state right-of-way is the only way to gain necessary access rights to the Marina Gateway Hotel from Bay Marina Drive by the date of the grand opening. Caltrans right-of-way decertification requires a $30,000 deposit to pay for an appraisal and processing efforts to complete the decertification process.

ITEM TITLE An Owner Participation presentation for A-1 Alloys at 724 Civic Center Drive, with request for City Council direction. PREPARED BY ( p Patricia Beard 4255 Redevelopment Manager DEPARTMENT Redevelopment Division/ EXPLANATION On March 6, 2007, the CDC authorized staff to commence an Owner Participation ("OP") process with the property owner of APN# 559-024-06, 724 Civic Center Drive for redevelopment of a key gateway into the City. This staff report and presentation being provided are results of that process. The attached Background Report will explain the OP process as it has been conducted regarding this property and provide preliminary staff comments about the proposal. Also, Mr. Robin Franklin, Profession Building Designer, and Mr. Jerald Williams, property owner and proprietor of A-1 Alloys housed on the site, will present the project and answer any questions the City Council may have. The redevelopment of this property is responsive to Strategic Plan Objective 9b — Draw Attention to Important Gateways and Intersections. Staff is seeking direction to: 1. Continue working to refine and develop the project concept presented tonight; or 2. Seek an alternative redevelopment scenario for this gateway site. (Please see attached background report.) Environmental Review Not applicable. Financial Statement There is no cost associated with this presentation. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Not applicable. Staff is seeking direction. BOARD / COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION Not applicable. ATTACHMENTS I. Background Report 2. Locator Map 3. Plot Plan 4. Elevations Resolution No. 1 A'ITACIIMEN'T 1 BACKGROUND REPORT Prior to considering a development agreement for a project in which the Redevelopment Agency (for National City — the CDC) may participate on private property not owned by the prospective developer or CDC, an Owner Participation process must be conducted in accordance with state law and the local Redevelopment Plan. The Owner Participation process is designed to inform property owners about projects and properties the CDC is considering for redevelopment and offer them an opportunity to submit a development proposal for consideration. Conducting the process does not pre -commit the CDC to approving any project, entering a development agreement or assisting a project in any way. On March 6, 2007, the CDC authorized staff to issue Owner Participation letters, the first step in the process, to a variety of property owners on North Cleveland Avenue. Among those was the property at Civic Center Drive, Cleveland Avenue and Interstate 5 (724 Civic Center Drive) housing A-1 Alloys recycling center. Mr. Jerald Williams owns the property and has operated A-1 Alloys since 1994. During the months from May — November, 2007, staff, Mr. Williams and his consultants exchanged letters and questions until a proposal of sufficient completeness was received for City CounciVCDC presentation. Staff conducted cursory reviews of the proposal during December and January. The proposal is to demolish and construct a new 16,092 square foot two-story building and continue the recycling operation at this location Staff made the following comments about the project: 1. The Project is allowable in the MM-CZ zone 2. Parking as shown does not meet minimum National City requirements 3. Circulation within the project is poor and/or inadequate 4. Architecture and design meet National City requirements 5. Landscaping looks adequate, pending details of the final design 6. Practicality of the lay -out is a concern if customers must park in back of the building and carry the recyclables to the front 7. The traffic engineer has no major concerns and a full traffic study would not be required for the project 8. A driveway shown as within the approach area to the Interstate 5 ramp should not be used or at most be used as right in, right out ingress and egress only 9. The primary concern is of policy — is this the type of use the City Council desires to see at this gateway location.
