If the majority of the City Council choose to deny the proposed appointment, the Mayor shall either propose an alternative candidate from the current application pool or choose to reopen the application period and return to the City Council at a future City Council Meeting with a different applicant for consideration. If a Mayoral Appointment is not approved by the majority of the City Council by confirmation, that applicant is removed from the pool for that seat. The Mayor will return to a future meeting with a substitute Mayoral appointment.

8. For City Council Appointments, the Interview Process is as follows:

a. The City Clerk will provide an overview of the Board, Commission, or Committee(s) with current vacancy (ies). The Mayor will introduce the applicant and two (2) questions will be asked of each applicant on behalf of the City Council.

b. Each applicant is given two (2) minutes to make a brief introduction of themselves and their qualifications to the City Council.

c. Mayor and City Councilmembers will ask questions of each applicant. All applicants must be asked the same questions.

d. Total time per applicant is five (5) timed minutes with time allowed for clarification at the discretion of the City Council, not to exceed ten (10) minutes total per applicant.

e. All appointments and interviews before the City Council will be scheduled as needed to fill unexpected vacancies, with every effort to be made before an individual's term expires. Interviews may take place at one meeting, with appointments made at a subsequent meeting.

9. Vacancies for City Council Appointed Positions. If the vacancy is for a City Council appointed position, and there is more than one (1) applicant for a given position, the voting process will proceed as follows: Once the interviews are complete, each Councilmember votes for their choice via a written ballot provided by the City Clerk.

Each Councilmember shall print and sign their name
on the ballot. All ballots shall be considered a public record and be open to inspection by the public. The ballots are passed to the City Clerk who announces the number of votes for each candidate.

AMENDED: November 16, 2021

ADOPTED: June 17, 1986
POLICY # 107
TITLE: Appointments to Boards, Commission and Committees If the appointment process is conducted via a virtual meeting the process is the same except the ballot/vote process. The City Clerk’s Office will provide a Vote Sheet (a piece of paper electronically) with the name of each applicant to be considered. Th e Mayor will count to three (3) and the Council will hold their vote sheet up in front of their face to make sure it is captured on the camera during the live virtual meeting. The City Clerk will tally the votes and will then confirm the votes with a verb al roll call. The applicant with the most votes is appointed.

In the event of a tie, each Councilmember votes again until one (1) candidate has the majority vote and is declared to be the newly–appointed member of the Board, Commission, or Committee.

10. Re-appointment beyond two terms. Anyone wishing to be re-appointed to any Board, Commission, or Committee and has served two or more full terms already must be approved by a four -fifths vote of the City Council. If all five members of the City Council are not present, or if one member abstains or recuses their vote, the four- fifths requirement shall be changed to require only a simple majority.

11. Report to Council:

All applications received for vacancies , whether Mayoral Appointment or City Council Appointment, will be attached to the staff report to Council. All applications will have private personal information redacted (name, street numbers and name of street address, and phone number). This redacted information is in alignment with Government Code Section 6255(a) because the public interest served by not disclosing the applicant’s personal, private information and protection of the applicant’s right to privacy outweighs the public interest served by disclosi ng that information.

12. An automatic vacancy upon becoming a Non- Resident. An unscheduled vacancy automatically occurs when a resident holding an appointment position on a City Board, Committee, or Commission becomes a non-resident by moving out of National City limits. When an unscheduled vacancy occurs due to a resident becoming a non-resident, the unscheduled vacancy may be filled as follows:

a. A special vacancy notice shall be posted in the Office of the City Clerk, and in other places as directed by the City Council, not earlier than 20 days before or not later than 20 days after the vacancy occurs. Final Appointment at a City Council Meeting shall not be made by the Appointing Authority for at least 10 working days after the posting of the notice in the City Clerk’s Office.

While living in South Central Los Angeles, during the years 2015-2018, I worked with local youth and the City of Los Angeles to create a youth art program that was able to paint over 35 murals in 3 years. The program brought together young voices and talent, local muralists, and community partners to inspire, develop and bring vibrant murals to electronic boxes, private walls, and public spaces. The work was able to cover and prevent graffiti, develop the artistic talent of young community members, and capture the spirit of life one of the toughest neighborhoods in Los Angeles. When I moved to National City I instantly saw a budding public art movement. I want to help the city partner with its residents to create public art projects that inspire pride, progress and prosperity. My art projects work directly with neighborhood people for inspiration. My goal is to instill pride in communities by having residents directly involved in discovering their artistic abilities. The goal of my murals is for community folks to be able to say, ‘you see that, we painted that’. This approach has been successful in long term graffiti reduction. I am also interested in new projects and perspectives and would like to join the public art committee to explore their creations. I feel my approach to public art is something unique and believe I can work cohesively with other members to bring about experiences that will inspire National City residents to become more active in the arts.

Experience or Special Knowledge Pertaining to Area of Interest?:  I am an artist/muralist and community organizer who specializes in public art projects.

ADOPTED: June 17, 1986
POLICY # 107
TITLE: Appointments to Boards, Commission and Committees vote of the City Council. A majority vote of the City Council will be required for the appointment. If the majority of the City Council choose to deny the proposed appointment, the Mayor shall either propose an alternative candidate from the current application pool or choose to reopen the application period and return to the City Council at a future City Council Meeting with a different applicant for consideration. If a Mayoral Appointment is not approved by the majority of the City Council by confirmation, that applicant is removed from the pool for that seat. The Mayor will return to a future meeting with a substitute Mayoral appointment.

8. For City Council Appointments, the Interview Process is as follows:

a. The City Clerk will provide an overview of the Board, Commission, or Committee(s) with current vacancy (ies). The Mayor will introduce the applicant and two (2) questions will be asked of each applicant on behalf of the City Council.

ADOPTED: June 17, 1986
POLICY # 107
TITLE: Appointments to Boards, Commission and Committees If the appointment process is conducted via a virtual meeting the process is the same except the ballot/vote process. The City Clerk’s Office will provide a Vote Sheet (a piece of paper electronically) with the name of each applicant to be considered. Th e Mayor will count to three (3) and the Council will hold their vote sheet up in front of their face to make sure it is captured on the camera during the live virtual meeting. The City Clerk will tally the votes and will then confirm the votes with a verb al roll call. The applicant with the most votes is appointed.

In the event of a tie, each Councilmember votes again until one (1) candidate has the majority vote and is declared to be the newly–appointed member of the Board, Commission, or Committee.

10. Re-appointment beyond two terms. Anyone wishing to be re-appointed to any Board, Commission, or Committee and has served two or more full terms already must be approved by a four -fifths vote of the City Council.

All applications received for vacancies , whether Mayoral Appointment or City Council Appointment, will be attached to the staff report to Council. All applications will have private personal information redacted (name, street numbers and name of street address, and phone number). This redacted information is in alignment with Government Code Section 6255(a) because the public interest served by not disclosing the applicant’s personal, private information and protection of the applicant’s right to privacy outweighs the public interest served by disclosi ng that information.

12. An automatic vacancy upon becoming a Non- Resident.

Approved by: Benjamin A. Martinez, City Manager

SUBJECT:

Amendment of Chapter 18.29 of the National City Municipal Code to Add Regulations for the Mixed Use Overlay Zone.

RECOMMENDATION:

Initiate the Code Amendment.

BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION:

On March 18, 2024, the Planning Commission Recommended that the C ity Council Adopt the Ordinance Amending Title 18 of the Municipal Code.

EXPLANATION:

The Focused General Plan Update adopted in June of this year included a new zoning overlay district (Mixed-Use Overlay), which applies to the area around East 17th Street and on Roosevelt Area west of the Mile of Cars District (see attached Exhibit A). As part of the adoption of amendments to Title 18 of the Municipal Code, a new chapter was created, reviewed, and vetted by staff that included the regulations for the Mixed-Use Overlay. However, it was not included in the final agenda packet that went to Planning Commission and City Council due to a clerical error.

To that end, staff is requesting that the City Council initiate a follow-up Code amendment so that the new chapter can be added to the Zoning Code as originally intended. The draft language is attached as Exhibit B. Once initiated, the amendment will be scheduled for a public hearing with the Planning Commission. The Commission will then make a recommendation to the City Council.

BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION:

Not Applicable.

EXPLANATION:

On January 22, 2024, San Diego County experienced a catastrophic rainstorm event (Storm Event) that was considered a “1 in a 1,000 -year event” by the United States Geological Survey (USGS). After the Storm Event, the City of National City (City) and other cities within San Diego County declared a state of emergency and deployed City crews to clear debris and assess the severity of damage to homes, businesses and City infrastructure. On January 23, 202 4, the Governor of California issued an Emergency Proclamation (Proclamation) to provide support in the response and recovery efforts from the Storm Event and to secure funding (CDAA-2024-04).

Subsequent to this Proclamation, the California Office of Emerg ency Services (CalOES) announced that funding would be available for certain qualified storm -related emergency and permanent repairs, for up to 75% of the cost incurred by the City. Staff has submitted the initial required documentation to CalOES for the storm damage experienced within the City and expects that this project will qualify for reimbursement under that process.

The Storm Event significantly impacted critical City infrastructure, including damage to the City’s storm drain system on 16th Stre et near M Avenue, resulting in a sink hole in 16th Street. The condition was identified in the weeks following the storm and immediately stabilized. City staff, supported by on-call consultants, completed the evaluation and design to permanently repair the sink hole and replace approximately 160 feet of failed storm drain pipe, which consisted of a 36” diameter corrugated metal pipe (CMP). The new installation will consist of reinforced concrete pipe (RCP), which meets current industry standards.

On July 19, 2024, a bid solicitation for this project was posted on PlanetBids, a free public electronic bidding system for contractors. On July 19, 2024 and July 26, 2024, the bid solicitation was advertised in the local newspaper.

On August 13, 2024, t wo (2) bids were received by the 1:00 p.m. deadline. Palm Engineering Construction Co. was the apparent lowest bidder with a total bid amount of $346,500. Upon review of all documents submitted, Palm Engineering Construction Co mpany, Inc .’s bi d was deemed responsive and they are the lowest responsible bidder qualified to perform the work as described in the project specifications.

Staff recommends awarding a contract to Palm Engineering Construction Co mpany, Inc. in the not-to-exceed amount of $346,500 and authorizing a 15% contingency in the amount of $51,975 to address any unforeseen conditions that may arise.

Attached are the bid opening summary sheet (Exhibit A) and a line-item summary of the two lowest bidders for reference (Exhibit B). The Owner -Contractor Agreement is also attached (Exhibit C).

Once the work is completed, staff will submit the remaining documentation and invoices required by CalOES for eligible reimbursement.

FINANCIAL STATEMENT:

If approved, appropriations for the contract award of $398,475 would be added to the FY 2025 General Fund budget in Expenditur e Account 100 -10-19-19900-7299- Storm Emergency Response Contracted Services. Up to 75% of the costs for this project are expected to be eligible for reimbursement by CalOES, but reimbursement is not guaranteed.

SUBJECT:

Performance Report of Annual Fire Safety Inspections

RECOMMENDATION:

Adopt a Resolution Entitled, “Resolution of the City Council of the City of National City, California, Acknowledging Receipt of a Report Made by the Fire Chief of the National City Fire Department Regarding the Annual Inspection of Certain Occupancies Pursuant to Sections 13146.2 and 13146.3 of the California Health and Safety Code.”

BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION:

Not Applicable.

EXPLANATION:

California Senate Bill 1205 (SB 1205) was signed into law on September 27, 2018, after the tragic Ghost Ship Fire (December 2016) , which brought national attention to California and put a spotlight on fire safety laws as well as the performance of fire inspections. This law amends preceding law such that an annua l report on state mandated inspections is now required to be submitted to the governing body of each jurisdiction having authority for inspections. The law also requires the report to be given when the administering authority discusses its annual budget and receipt of the report must be acknowledged in a resolution or similar formal document.

State mandated inspections were enacted by the California Health & Safety Code Sections 13146.2 and 13146.3 and requires all fire departments that provide fire protec tion services to perform annual inspections in every building used as a public or private school, hotel, motel, lodging house, and apartment house, for compliance with building standards. The California Health & Safety Code Sections 13146.2 and 13146.3 did not require fire departments to report or demonstrate compliance as the new law (SB 1205) does.

Although there are no penalties identified in the law, adoption of the resolution will establish the City of National City’s intent to fulfill the requirement s and acknowledgment of the National City Fire Department's compliance with California Health and Safety Code Sections 13146.2 and 13146.3, which identifies the state mandated inspections above and further described below.

Public and private schools are g enerally classified as Educational Group E occupancies. They are schools used by more than six persons at any one time, for educational purposes through the 12th grade. Within the City of National City, there are currently 19 Group E occupancies, buildings, structures, and facilities.

During fiscal year 2023-2024, the National City Fire Department completed the annual inspection of 19 Group E occupancies, buildings, structures, and facilities. This represents a compliance rate of 100%. There were two dedicated fire inspectors assigned to these occupancy types during fiscal year 2023 -2024. This department will also continue to improve coordination and cooperation with school administration and maintenance staff, which will result in a reduction in violations that would require re-inspection.

Currently, the Natio nal City Fire Department is re -implementing its Public Education Program, providing education to our schoolchildren and senior citizens. One item of interest will be to continue to promote its Fire Safe School of the Year Award, presented to the safest el ementary school in the National School District during an annual assembly. The award established in 2002, continues to promote friendly competition between schools while making our schools a safer place.

Hotels, motels, apartments (three units or more), and other residential occupancies that contain sleeping units are generally classified as Residential Group R occupancies. Within the City of National City, there are currently 471 Group R occupancies. During fiscal year 2023 -2024, the National City Fire Department completed the annual inspection of 469 Group R occupancies, buildings, structures, and facilities. This is a compliance rate of 99.57%. The Fire Prevention Bureau with two (2) Fire Inspectors had provided residential occupancy inspections. Additionally, the department has seen an unprecedented upward swing of building construction in the City of National City, and further mandates by the California State Fire Marshal’s Office, resulting in an increase of Residential Multi-family properties and general construction.

In an effort to increase overall performance and meet the demands of development and compliance with the State mandate, the Department was successful in actively working through the City Manager’s Office, Human Resources, and the Fin ance Department, to hire one (1) Fire Inspector to assist with added inspections and public education brought on by development in the city.

The combined effort is trending to increase the Department’s compliance rate of the mandated inspections for fiscal year 2024-2025.

FINANCIAL STATEMENT:

The City charges fees for these annual inspections to cover its costs. In fiscal year 2024, the City received approximately $416,000 in revenue for this service.
