EXPLANATION:
ervices
The City Council of the City of National City held three workshops related to the deve :"'rent of the City of
National City's Fiscal Tear 2014 operating budget and its five year strategic plan. Workshop content included
discussion of the City's current District Sales Tax, set to expire in September, 2016. Having heard from staff that
market forces such as the Great Recession and the dissolution of Redevelopment have hampered the City's ability
to establish alternative revenues to replace the projected $9.5 million in District Sales Tax revenue; and having
heard from staff that the City is unable to meet its current and anticipated expenditures without said funds, the City
Council directed staff to look at a possible ballot measure to extend the Tax.
On August 1, 2013, the City Manager entered into an agreement with the Lew Edwards Group to assist staff in
such review. Staff now seeks to amend the term of the agreement by one year in a continuation of the above effort
nd to expand the scope of work to include community engagement and outreach related to City services and
community priorities.
