WHEREAS, the improvement areas were prioritized based on a previous pavement conditions survey, field investigations, and requests from the public and, in addition, staff applied an equitable approach to developing the Project by ensuring improvements were proposed throughout the City, rather than limiting improvements to one or two geographic areas; and WHEREAS, the City-Wide Pedestrian Safety Enhancement Project, CIP No. 22-16, which is funded in part by a Highway Safety Improvement Program grant (the “Grant”), was included within the bid package for the Project to take advantage of competitive pricing typically realized when quantities for similar line items of work increase; and WHEREAS, on April 26, 2024, the bid solicitation for the Project was posted on PlanetBids, a free public electronic bidding system for contractors; and WHEREAS, on May 1st and May 3rd, 2024, the bid solicitation was advertised in the local newspaper; and
WHEREAS, on May 21, 2024, two (2) bids were received by the 5:00 p.m. deadline; and WHEREAS, both bidders submitted proposals that significantly exceeded the engineer’s estimate and, consequently, staff informed both bidders on June 6, 2024 that the City intended to readvertise the Project, which would include adjustments to the Project scope to align the bids with the budget allocations, after which the Project would be rebid; and WHEREAS, as a result of the excessive cost of the earlier bids, on August 19, 2024 staff re-advertised the Project on PlanetBids with a revised Project scope in order to receive bids within the budget allocations; and
WHEREAS, on September 5th and September 9th, 2024, the bid solicitation was advertised in the local newspaper; and
WHEREAS, on September 13, 2024, four (4) bids were received by the 5:00 p.m. deadline; and
WHEREAS, RAL Investment Corporation was the apparent lowest bidder with a total bid amount of $6,269,983.11 but, upon a review of all documents submitted, staff rejected the bid as non-responsive due to the bidder's failure to sign the Verification and Execution document; and
WHEREAS, consequently, staff reviewed the documents submitted by the second lowest bidder, Martin Marietta San Diego Aggregates, LLC dba ATP General Engineering Contractors (“ATP”), and ATP’s bid in the total bid amount of $6,745,176.10 was deemed responsive, making them the lowest responsible bidder qualified to perform the work as described in the Project specifications; and
WHEREAS, after reviewing the total bid submitted by ATP, City staff determined that the costs for the City-Wide Pedestrian Safety Enhancement Project, CIP No. 22-16 exceeded the Grant funds available for that portion of the Project and negotiated a revised scope of work with ATP that removed the City-Wide Pedestrian Safety Enhancement Project from the scope of work, resulting in a total contract award of $5,732,474; and
WHEREAS, City staff recommends 1) rejecting all bids received on May 21, 2024 for the FY24 and FY25 Pavement Rehabilitation Project, CIP No. 23-15; 2) awarding a contract to Martin Marietta San Diego Aggregates, LLC dba ATP General Engineering Contractors in the not-toexceed amount of $5,732,474 for the revised scope of work for the FY24 and FY25 Pavement Rehabilitation Project, CIP No. 23-15; 3) authorizing a 10% contingency in the amount of $573,247 for any unforeseen changes; and 4) authorizing the Mayor to execute the contract.

SUBJECT:
Awarding a Contract to Metrocell Construction, Inc., for the 8th St. Mobility Hub for the FRANC NEV Shuttle project, CIP No. 22-25.
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution Entitled, “Resolution of the City Council of the City of National City, California, 1) Awarding a Contract to Metrocell Construction, Inc. in the Not-to-Exceed Amount of $386,125 for the 8
th St. Mobility Hub for the FRANC NEV Shuttle Project, CIP No. 22-25; 2) Authorizing a 15% Contingency in the Amount of $57,919 for any Unforeseen Changes; and 3) Authorizing the Mayor to Execute the Contract.”
BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION:
Not Applicable.
EXPLANATION:
The Clean Mobility Options (CMO) Voucher Pilot Program is an initiative of the California Air Resources Board funded by the California Climate Investment Program. Its primary goal is to provide funding for zero-emission shared mobility options to underserved communities in California.
On August 3, 2021, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2021-104 authorizing the City’s participation in the CMO Voucher Pilot Program from the California Air Resources Board for the Free Ride Around National City (FRANC) Neighborhood Electric Vehicle (NEV) Shuttle Program (the “FRANC”).
On December 6, 2022, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2022-196 thereby appropriating $999,996 from the CMO Voucher Pilot Program for the FRANC, which is intended to provide first and last mile connections for the trolley station as well as connections to other origins and destinations in Downtown and Westside National City.
On June 20, 2023, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2023-83 awarding an agreement with Circuit Transit, Inc. to provide the FRANC, and Resolution No. 2023-89 authorizing an appropriation in the amount of $400,000 for funding from the San Diego Port District for the FRANC program.
The City of National City submitted a grant request in late 2023 for a Mobility Hub and program at the 8th Street Trolley Station and was notified in Spring of 2024 of the intent to award along with 19 other projects in California.
On March 19, 2024, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2024-16 approving a railroad rightof-way license agreement and a right of entry permit with San Diego Metropolitan Transit System for the purpose of using a portion of the 8th Street Transit Center parking lot for the construction and use of a solar powered storage area for the FRANC shuttle operation.
The 8
th St. Mobility Hub for the FRANC NEV Shuttle Project, CIP No. 22-25, is for the construction of a storage facility to securely store and charge the FRANC shuttles, consisting of a fenced in area and electric vehicle chargers powered by solar panels, which will be constructed at the 8th Street Transit Center parking lot.
On April 3, 2024, bid solicitation was posted on PlanetBids, a free public electronic bidding system for contractors. On April 6 and 13, 2024, the bid solicitation was advertised in local newspapers.
On May 30, 2024, one (1) bid was received by the 1:00 p.m. deadline and Metrocell Construction, Inc. was the apparent lowest bidder with a total bid amount of $299,000.
Subsequent to the bid opening, MTS determined that the railroad right-of-way license agreement provided to the City was the wrong agreement template and, instead, a Construction and Maintenance Agreement (CMA) that includes a license and access rights was the appropriate agreement for the uses contemplated. Therefore, the previous railroad right-of way license and right of entry permit approved by the City Council on March 19, 2024 is not applicable and was not executed by MTS. Concurrently with this agenda report, the final CMA that will need to be executed with MTS is included as an item for consideration and approval on the November 19, 2024 City Council Agenda.
Since the low bidder, Metrocell Construction, Inc. was unwilling to maintain their bid until such time as a CMA could be executed between the City and MTS, the City could not proceed with awarding the contract for the 8
th St. Mobility Hub for the FRANC NEV Shuttle Project to Metrocell Construction, Inc.
After agreeing to terms with MTS on the CMA, staff re-advertised the project on PlanetBids on September 24, 2024, as well as in the local newspaper on September 28, 2024 and October 4, 2024. On October 17, 2024, three (3) bids were received by the 2:00 pm deadline and Metrocell Construction, Inc. was the apparent lowest bidder with a total bid amount of $386,125. Upon review of all documents submitted, Metrocell Construction, Inc.’s bid 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 Metrocell Construction, Inc. in the not-to-exceed amount of $386,125 and authorizing a 15% contingency in the amount of $57,919 to address any unforeseen conditions that may arise.
Attached is the bid opening summary (Exhibit A) and a line-item summary of the three (3) lowest bidders (Exhibit B). Also attached is the Owner-Contractor Agreement (Exhibit C).

15.08-acre Parcel of Land at the Southwest Corner of Sweetwater Road and Bonita Center Road that Extends the Escrow for Twelve Months after the Opening of Escrow.
BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION:
Not Applicable.
EXPLANATION:
On March 20, 2007, the Parking Authority of the City of National City (“Parking Authority” and “Optionee”) entered into an Option to Purchase Agreement (“Option Agreement”) with the County of San Diego to purchase an open-space easement attached to the 15.08-acre parcel of land located at the southwest corner of Sweetwater Road and Bonita Center Road (Parcel No. 564- 471-11) to develop a commercial project.
The Option Agreement has been subsequently amended in 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020 each extending the term of the option Agreement for one year. In 2021 the option was extended for two years and was set to expire on December 31, 2023. The Seventeenth Amendment, dated December 18, 2023, extended the term of the Option Agreement for 30 days and the deadline to close escrow for 6 months after the opening of escrow.
On January 30, 2024, Parking Authority timely exercised its option under the Option Agreement and opened escrow on April 24, 2024, but was unable to meet the conditions for closing escrow.
The Eighteenth Amendment would require escrow to close withing twelve (12) months of the Opening of Escrow.
FINANCIAL STATEMENT:
CarMax will pay the City $2,100,000 for approximately 7.19 acres of the 15.08 acres owned by the Parking Authority. The City will immediately pay the County of San Diego the $2,100,000 to purchase the open space easement on the 15.08-acre parcel, allowing CarMax to construct their facility. A Fiscal and Economic Analysis conducted in 2016 found that the CarMax Superstore could generate from $886,000 to $1,342,000 per year in sales tax revenue.

SUBJECT:
Eleventh Amendment to an Option to Purchase Agreement with CarMax. (Parking Authority) RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the Resolution Entitled “Resolution of the Parking Authority of the City of National City, California, Authorizing and Ratifying the Eleventh Amendment to the Option to Purchase Agreement Between the Parking Authority and CarMax Auto Superstores California, LLC, a Virginia Limited Liability Company, Providing Six Months from Execution of the Eleventh Amendment to Process and Record a Final Parcel Map and Requiring Escrow to Close Two Days after Recording the Final Parcel Map.”
BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION:
Not Applicable.
EXPLANATION:
The Parking Authority of the City of National City (“Parking Authority” or “Authority”) owns a 15.08- acre parcel located at the southwest corner of Sweetwater Road and Plaza Bonita Center Way (“Property”). The Authority entered into an Option to Purchase Agreement (“Original Agreement”) with CarMax Auto Superstores California, LLC, (“CarMax”) on August 18, 2015. CarMax intends to use approximately 7.19 acres of the Property to develop a CarMax Superstore and conduct onsite environmental mitigation and required infrastructure on the Parcel’s remaining 7.89 acres.
CarMax is currently working to process and record a Final Parcel Map to create a legal parcel capable of being conveyed by the Authority to CarMax at Closing (“CarMax Property”), based upon the approved Tentative Parcel Map. The Eleventh Amendment (“Amendment“) would provide six additional months from October 22, 2024 to record the final map and for the Close of Escrow on the CarMax Property to occur two days after recording the Final Parcel Map.
The Eleventh Amendment also gives CarMax a 21-day termination period which gives CarMax the right to cancel escrow by November 14, 2024. However, the Parking Authority received a letter from CarMax’s legal counsel on November 4, 2024 waiving their right to cancel under the Amendment, attached as Exhibit “B.”
FINANCIAL STATEMENT:
CarMax will pay the City $2,100,000 for approximately 7.19 acres of the 15.08 acres owned by the Parking Authority. The City will immediately pay the County of San Diego the $2,100,000 to purchase the open space easement on the 15.08-acre parcel, allowing CarMax to construct their facility.

Meeting Date: Tuesday, November 19, 2024
Approved by: Benjamin A. Martinez, City Manager
SUBJECT:
FY 2023-24 Development Impact Fees Annual Report
RECOMMENDATION:
Accept and File the Report.
BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION:
Not Applicable.
EXPLANATION:
The City of National City requires the payment of development impact fees on new development as authorized by State of California Government Code Section 66000 et seq., which is known as the Mitigation Fee Act. The Mitigation Fee Act requires that an annual report and five-year reports be prepared regarding the collection and use of the Development Impact Fees (DIF fees). Fees collected must be spent in a timely manner. If fees are not spent within a period of 5 years, the report must provide an expenditure plan that justifies keeping the revenues for a longer period.
The attached report provides revenue and expenditure information since the inception of the DIFs, fulfills the annual reporting requirements, and addresses future spending plans for the unspent balances.
The development impact fees for Parks and Recreation, Police, Fire, and Library were established in 2005 and have not been updated since that time. The transportation fees were established in 2008 based on a fee study conducted by the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) and have been adjusted annually for inflation based on direction from SANDAG. A consultant has been engaged to assist in reexamining these impact fees to ensure that they continue to reflect the impacts of new development on public facilities as the general plan evolves and the development of the City progresses. Recommendations to adjust the development impact fees will be brought to City Council during calendar year 2025.
FINANCIAL STATEMENT:
Since inception, the City has collected approximately $4.3 million in development impact fees for Parks, Police, Fire and Library facilities and approximately $3.7 million in transportation development impact fees. See the attached report for details.

2 BACKGROUND
In 2005, based on a study completed for the City by MAXIMUS, Inc. and Tischler & Associates, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2005-17, which established fees to be charged on new development in order to defray all or a portion of the cost of public facilities related to the development project. These fees are known as development impact fees (DIFs) and are permitted pursuant to the California Government Code beginning with Section 66000 (known as the Mitigation Fee Act). Pursuant to that resolution, the City collects impact fees for Police, Fire, Library, and Park facilities. While fees may be adjusted periodically to reflect construction cost increases, the City has not changed its fees since they were first adopted in 2005. The fees for these four categories are as shown in Table A below. In 2024 the City entered into an agreement with David Taussig and Associates to perform a study to recommend updates to the City’s DIF rates, with completion of the study expected during Fiscal Year 2024-25.
In 2008, the City Council adopted Ordinance 2310, which added Section 4.52 to the National City Municipal Code (NCMC) to establish a transportation development impact fee (TDIF). This fee was adopted to comply with the San Diego Association of Government’s (SANDAG’s) Regional Transportation Congestion Improvement Program (RTCIP) that requires the City to charge the fee to maintain eligibility for TransNet sales tax funding for transportation projects. SANDAG conducted a region-wide study which serves as the basis for the fee that was initially established at $2,000 per new residential unit. It is updated annually in accordance with direction provided by SANDAG. As of July 1, 2024, the TDIF is $2,741.97 per residential unit. No fee is collected for non-residential development. While such a fee is provided for in the NCMC, its imposition has been suspended per section 4.52.090.

3 REPORTING
Government Code Section 66006 requires that an annual report be prepared regarding the collection and use of the fees. Fees collected must be spent in a timely manner. If fees are not spent within a period of 5 years, a report must be filed that provides an expenditure plan that justifies keeping revenues for a longer period.

4 FEE METHODOLOGY
There are three (3) methods that were used to determine the fees collected by the City for the Police, Fire, Parks and Library facilities. Each method requires that the spending of funds received be restricted as follows:
1) Plan Based Impact Fees – used for new facilities that will be needed due to the increase in development.
2) Cost Recovery Impact Fees – used to pay for existing facilities where the new development benefits from the remaining capacity and useful life of the facilities. 3) Incremental Expansion Impact Fees – used for expanding existing facilities to serve new development
Fees for Police, Fire, Library, and Parks facilities were calculated using one or more of the methods above depending upon the purpose of the fees.
STATUS OF THE FEE PROGRAM
This section, by facility type, describes the purpose for the fees, provides a history of revenues and expenditures since inception, describes how the money has been spent, and discusses the plans for future spending.
POLICE IMPACT FEES
All three (3) methods were used to calculate Police impact fees. The purpose for the fees as determined in 2005 was to accumulate funding to assist with the cost of a new police substation in conjunction with a new fire station, recover a portion of the costs associated with the police headquarters building and pay for the incremental addition of police vehicles. Revenue and expenditures are detailed below:

Revenue received from police impact fees since fiscal year 2004-05 totals $1,361,397, of which $1,127,008 has been spent. The current balance in the account is $234,389, all of which comes from fees collected within the last five fiscal years. The funds have been used to make improvements to the Police Department headquarters building and parking structure and to purchase certain vehicular equipment. The new substation has been on hold. The expectation in 2005 was that bonds would be issued by the City to build a new combination fire station and police substation, but a subsequent downturn in economic conditions dictated that those plans be delayed. Instead, the focus has been on improvements to the Police Department headquarters building and parking structure and the purchase of police vehicles to meet increased service demands. The City will continue to apply the revenues received in this account to similar purposes. The balance in the account will be factored into the development of the new Police Development Impact Fee.
FIRE IMPACT FEES
The plan based and cost recovery methods were used to calculate Fire impact fees. The purpose of the fees was to assist with the funding of the relocation and expansion of Station 34, assist with the cost of a future new fire station and associated apparatus, and because of its citywide benefit, recover a portion of the capital costs related to Station 31.

Revenue received from fire impact fees since fiscal year 2004-05 totals $560,736, of which $285,292 has been spent on items including a fire hydrant, fire apparatus, and the acquisition of a modular facility for the Station 33 Squad Program that was set up in El Toyon Park to provide faster response times in the north-eastern portion of the City. The current balance in the account is $275,445, of which $162,056 is from fees paid over the last five fiscal years and $113,389 from the four years prior. The plans for a new fire station as envisioned in 2005 have not materialized.
The expectation then was that bonds would be issued by the City to build a new combination fire station and police substation, but those plans were put on hold as described above. Between fiscal years 2022-23 and 2023-24, the City’s budget allocated $200,000 in Fire DIF funds towards the design of a new multi-purpose facility and fire station in El Toyon Park. Accumulated and future revenues will provide a small portion of the funding for this future facility. The balance in the account will be factored into the development of the new Fire Development Impact Fee.
PARKS IMPACT FEES
The incremental expansion method was used to calculate Park impact fees. The purpose of the fees was to pay for new improvements in existing parks and the expansion of existing recreation centers to provide additional capacity to accommodate new development. The funds cannot be used for replacement or maintenance of equipment or facilities. Revenue and expenditure details follow:

Since 2005 revenue received from park impact fees totals $1,910,626 of which $1,358,444 has been spent on improvements in El Toyon and Kimball parks. The current balance in the account is $552,181, all of which was received during the last five fiscal years. The City expects to encumber the remaining account balance on Las Palmas Park Improvements during the first half of Fiscal Year 2024-25.
LIBRARY IMPACT FEES
The plan-based method was used to calculate Library impact fees. The purpose of the fees was to cover a portion of the costs of the planned construction of a replacement library that was to be twice the size of the then existing library. Outside sources paid for 65% of the construction costs, leaving the City to cover the remaining share for which the City issued general obligation bonds in the amount of $5,970,000.

Revenue received since inception from library impact fees totals $435,620 of which $210,000 has been spent on a portion of the costs to upgrade the National City Library. The current balance in the account is $225,620, of which $145,065 was received during the last five years and $80,554 over the five prior years. The upgrades included a new radio-frequency identification book delivery system, additional bookshelves and other enhancements. The City is evaluating projects that will enhance the Library’s ability to accommodate a growing number of users over the next five to ten years. The balance in the account will be factored into the development of the new Library Development Impact Fee.
TRANSPORTATION IMPACT FEES
The purpose of the transportation impact fee is to defray the costs of constructing planned transportation facilities to accommodate increased traffic generated by future development and on improvements that expand capacity on the Regional Arterial System (RAS) as required by the TransNet Regional Transportation Congestion Improvement Program (RTCIP). Eligible projects include such things as road widening, roadway extensions, turning lanes, traffic signal coordination, freeway to arterial interchange improvements, railroad grade separations, and expanded regional express bus and rail transit service.

Meeting Date: Tuesday, November 19, 2024
Approved by: Benjamin A. Martinez, City Manager
SUBJECT:
Installation of 19 Feet of Red Curb “No Parking” in Front of the Residence Located at 2130 E. 12th Street to Improve Visibility at the Intersection of E. 12th Street and Grove Street.
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution entitled, “Resolution of the City Council of the City of National City, California Authorizing the Installation of 19 Feet of Red Curb “No Parking” in Front of the Residence Located at 2130 E. 12th Street to Improve Visibility at the Intersection of E. 12th Street and Grove Street.” BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION:
On August 21, 2024, the Traffic Safety Committee approved staff’s recommendation for the installation of red curb “No Parking” in front of the residence located at 2130 E. 12th Street.
EXPLANATION:
A resident expressed concerns with visibility at the intersection of E. 12th Street and Grove Street, and requested the installation of red curb to improve visibility for vehicles turning onto E. 12th Street from Grove Street. The anonymous request was submitted via the City’s SeeClickFix website.
Staff performed a site evaluation and confirmed that E. 12th Street is a 2-lane residential roadway with available parking on both sides of the street and a speed limit of 25 mph. There is existing red curb on E. 12th Street, east of Grove Street, which explains why the red curb request was only for the west side of the intersection. In addition, E. 12th Street, west of Grove Street, is part of a Class III bike route that continues to the north on Paradise Drive and south on Grove Street.
A Class III bike route includes “sharrow” pavement markings and signage to notify drivers to share the road with bicyclists.
Staff sent notices to area residents and presented their findings and recommendations at the Traffic Safety Committee (TSC) Meeting held on May 8, 2024. After discussion, the TSC voted to carry over the item to a subsequent meeting and directed staff to check the traffic collision history at the intersection of E. 12th Street and Grove Street and consider reducing the amount of red curb recommended from 38 feet to 19 feet to preserve one parking space.
Staff obtained the traffic collision history report for the intersection of E. 12th Street and Grove Street from the National City Police Department. The report showed there had been one reported collision in the last four years, categorized as a hit and run with no injuries or fatalities.
Staff presented the item for a second time at the TSC Meeting held on July 10, 2024, with a recommendation to install 19 feet of red curb. The TSC voted to carry over the item to the August TCS meeting for further discussion.
The decision to carry over the item was made to accommodate a request from the resident of 2130 E. 12th Street for a blue curb disabled persons parking space. It shall be noted that the resident was in support of staff’s recommendation to install 19 feet of red curb at the intersection to improve visibility.
Staff presented the item for a third time at the TSC Meeting held on August 21, 2024, with a recommendation to install 19 feet of red curb. After discussion, the TSC voted to approve the red curb recommendation made by staff.
If approved by City Council, all work will be performed by City Public Works.
FINANCIAL STATEMENT:
The cost to install the red curb is approximately $300. Funding is available within the Engineering & Public Works Department Streets Division maintenance and operating budget.

NATIONAL CITY TRAFFIC SAFETY COMMITTEE
AGENDA REPORT FOR JULY 10, 2024
ITEM TITLE: REQUEST FOR INSTALLATION OF 19 FEET OF RED CURB IN FRONT OF THE RESIDENCE AT 2130 E 12TH STREET
PREPARED BY: Ricardo Rodriguez, Assistant Engineer – Civil Engineering & Public Works Department
DISCUSSION:
A resident has expressed concern with visibility at the intersection of E 12th Street and Grove Street, and requested the installation of red curb to improve visibility for the vehicles turning onto E 12th Street from Grove Street. The anonymous request was submitted via the SeeClickFix website and was discussed by the Traffic Safety Committee (TSC) during the meeting in May. As a result of the discussion during the meeting, TSC members directed staff to check the traffic collision history at this intersection and follow up with the resident at 2130 E 12th Street regarding a possible request for a blue curb. It should be noted that, prior to the TSC meeting in May, the resident at 2130 E 12th Street mentioned they were interested in requesting a blue curb in front of their residence, however, as of June 26, 2024, a request from this residence has not been received.
In addition to the direction provided, the TSC asked to have the original request modified. The original request was for the installation of 38 feet of red curb, which would impact on-street parking by removing parking for two vehicles. Now with the modification, the request is for 19 feet of red curb, reducing the impact by removing parking for only one vehicle.
Prior to the TSC meeting in May, staff performed a site evaluation and determined that E 12th Street is a 2-lane residential roadway with available parking on both sides of the street and a speed limit of 25 mph. Also, there is red curb on E 12th Street, east of Grove Street, which is why the request is only for one side of the intersection. It is also worth mentioning that E 12th Street, west of Grove Street, is part of a Class III bike route that continues to the north on Paradise Drive and south on Grove Street. A Class III bike route is a street shared with vehicles that is designated for bicycle travel with signage.
Staff visited the site a second time, after the TSC meeting in May, and did not see a lack of available on-street parking. During the second site visit, staff contacted the resident at 2130 E 12th Street and personally delivered a blue curb request form.
Following up on the direction from the TSC, staff requested a traffic collision history report for the intersection of E 12th St and Grove St. The report shows that there has only been one reported collision in the last four years. The collision was categorized as a hit and run with no injuries or fatalities.
ITEM NO. 2024-02

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Based on the evaluation of existing conditions, staff recommends the installation of 19 feet of red curb “No Parking” on the south side of E 12th Street, west of Grove Street, in front of the residence at 2130 E 12th Street, to improve visibility for vehicles turning onto E 12th Street. This will result in the loss of one (1) on-street parking spaces.

SUBJECT:
Installation of Time-Restricted “No Parking Street Sweeping” Signs on the East Side of Highland Avenue Between E. 2nd Street and Melrose Street.
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution Entitled, “Resolution of the City Council of the City of National City, California, Authorizing the Installation of Time-Restricted “No Parking Street Sweeping” Signs “Friday, 4:00 AM to 6:00 AM,” with the Exception of City Holidays, on the East Side of Highland Avenue between E. 2nd Street and Melrose Street.”
BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION:
On August 21, 2024, the Traffic Safety Committee unanimously approved the installation of time-restricted “No Parking Street Sweeping” signs (R30B), “Friday, 4:00 AM to 6:00 AM,” on the east side of Highland Avenue between E. 2nd Street and Melrose Street.

Mr. Chris Verzosa, property owner of 127 Highland Avenue, has requested the installation of timerestricted “No Parking Street Sweeping” signs on the east side of Highland Avenue between E. 2nd Street and Melrose Street to improve access for scheduled weekly street sweeping services.
The installation of “No Parking Street Sweeping” signs would improve weekly street sweeping services by allowing the sweeper to clear debris along the curbline. Since the posting of “No Parking Street Sweeping” signs would result in a two-hour parking prohibition one day a week, a petition must be signed by at least 60 percent of the property owners located on the east side of Highland Avenue between E. 2nd Street and Melrose Street.
On May 16, 2024, Mr. Verzosa submitted a petition to the Engineering & Public Works Department. Mr. Verzosa is the owner of three out of the five properties located on the east side of Highland Avenue between E. 2nd Street and Melrose Street, meeting the minimum requirement of 60 percent. Staff also notified the owners of the other two properties, inviting them to participate in the Traffic Safety Committee meeting and/or submit any comments or concerns to the Engineering Division.
Engineering Division staff consulted with Public Works Streets Division staff, who confirmed that street sweeping is scheduled for this area every Friday between the hours of 4:00 AM and 6:00 AM, with the exception of City holidays.
Staff presented this item to the Traffic Safety Committee on August 21, 2024, and after discussion, the Traffic Safety Committee voted unanimously to approve staff’s recommendation to install “No
Parking Street Sweeping” signs on the east side of Highland Avenue between E. 2nd Street and Melrose Street.
It shall be noted that staff sent notices to the adjacent properties inviting them to the Traffic Safety Committee Meeting and/or to contact staff with any questions. No individuals were in attendance to speak on this item.
If approved by City Council, all work will be performed by City Public Works.

Planning Commission
Meeting of November 4, 2024
Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends approval of the sale of on-site beer and wine, subject to the recommended conditions in the attached resolution and a determination that the project is exempt from CEQA. The sale of beer and wine is a conditionally-allowed use in the Major Mixed-Use Corridor zone and would be accessory to food sales at the restaurant.
Executive Summary
The operator of Mr. Pulpo Seafood restaurant has applied for a California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) Type 41 license to offer on-site beer and wine sales. The applicant is proposing alcohol sales from 9:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. daily. No live entertainment is proposed.
Site Characteristics
Mr. Pulpo Seafood is an existing restaurant located at the corner of E 8th Street and Highland Avenue within the Major Mixed-Use Corridor zone. The restaurant is 2,160 square feet in size, with approximately 1,160 square feet dedicated to dining area. The restaurant has 57 seats available in the dining area.
The previous tenant, Cabo Wabo Grill, had a Type 40 ABC license, which is given to bars and taverns that only sell beer. Mr. Pulpo Seafood has replaced the previous nonconforming use with a restaurant.
Proposed Use
The business is proposing to sell on-site beer and wine (ABC Type 41) in conjunction with food sales in the restaurant. Restaurant operating hours and alcohol sales will be 9:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. daily. No live entertainment is proposed.
Analysis
Section 18.30.050 of the Land Use Code allows for on-site alcohol sales with an approved Conditional Use Permit (CUP). Additional requirements for alcohol CUPs include expanded notification, a community meeting, and distance requirements. City Council Policy 707 also regulates alcohol sales in the city.
Hours of Operation for Alcohol Sales
Conditions of approval for alcohol sales reflect what the applicant has requested (9:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. daily). The applicant has stated that the proposed hours
Planning Commission
Meeting of November 4, 2024
are the maximum that could be expected, depending on the future success of the business. Current hours are advertised as 9:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.
Mailing – All property owners and occupants within a distance of 660 feet are required to be notified of a public hearing for alcohol-related CUP applications.
Notice of this public hearing was sent to 261 occupants and owners.
Comments
The Planning Division has not received any public comment as of the writing this report.
Community Meeting - Pursuant to Section 18.30.050 (C) of the National City Zoning Code, a community meeting was held on Tuesday, July 9, 2024 at 11:00 a.m. at the restaurant. The meeting advertisement is attached (Attachment 8).
Based on the attached sign-in sheet, ten community members attended the meeting. The questions asked were related to the previous bar use, not the restaurant use with proposed alcohol sales.
Distance Requirements – Chapter 18.030.050 (D) of the Land Use Code (LUC) requires a 660-foot distance from any public school for restaurants serving alcohol. Restaurants with greater than 30% of their area devoted to seating are exempt from this distance requirement. The restaurant is not located within 660 feet of a school and approximately 50% of the floor area is devoted to seating.
Alcohol Sales Concentration/Location
According to the California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC), there is one on-site license in census tract 118.02, where a maximum of nine are recommended. Therefore, the census tract is not considered to be over concentrated by ABC with regard to on-site alcohol sales outlets, even with the proposed license. Census Tract 118.02 is located east of Highland Avenue, north of East 8
th Street, and west of Palm Avenue.
Police Department (PD)
The ABC Risk Assessment provided by PD allocated a total of 9 points, which places it in the Low Risk category (Low Risk is considered 12 or less points). The Risk Assessment is included as Attachment 6.
Planning Commission
Meeting of November 4, 2024
Institute for Public Strategies (IPS)
Comments were received from IPS with the following considerations:
1. Require that staff, management, and owner attend an in-person Responsible Beverage Sales and Service training. See the California Alcoholic Beverage Control website for future trainings.
2. Require that litter be removed on a daily basis and graffiti abated within 24 hours.
Standard conditions of approval are included in the report in compliance with City Council Policy 707. IPS comments are included as Attachment 7. The application is for a restaurant use and the proposed alcohol sales are incidental to the primary use. Conditions of approval are included that restrict live entertainment.
Findings for Approval
The following are the required findings in the attached draft resolution:
1. Allowable Use: Alcohol sales are allowable within Major Mixed-Use Corridor zone, pursuant to a CUP, and the proposed use meets the required guidelines in the Land Use Code for alcohol sales, as discussed in the staff report. The use is incidental to the existing restaurant use in a mixed-use area.
2. General Plan Consistency: Alcohol sales is a permitted use, subject to a CUP, by the Land Use Code, which is consistent with the General Plan. In addition, a restaurant with alcohol sales is consistent with the Major Mixed-Use Corridor zone land use designation and the Community Character element of the General Plan.
3. Compatibility, LUC, and Traffic: No expansion of the building is proposed.
The proposal involves an existing commercial space, which was previously analyzed for traffic impacts when it was constructed. The site is physically suitable for the type, density, and intensity of use being proposed, including access, utilities, and the absence of physical constraints. The proposed uses would be incidental to the primary use of food service.
4. No Nuisance: The proposed use will be subject to conditions that limit the sale of beer and wine as well as the hours that it will be available. Beer and wine will only be available with the sale of food. In addition, all staff members
Planning Commission
Meeting of November 4, 2024
serving alcohol are required to receive RBSS training. There is no live entertainment proposed on site.
5. California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA): The proposed project has been reviewed in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has been determined to be categorically exempt from environmental review pursuant to Class 1, Section 15301 (Existing Facilities) for which a Notice of Exemption will be filed subsequent to approval of this Conditional Use Permit. The reason for the exemption is that the use is proposed within an existing commercial building, and the use is similar to other commercial uses in the area, which are permitted in Major Mixed-Use Corridor zone.
6. Public Convenience and Necessity: The restaurant, a permitted use in the Major Mixed-Use Corridor zone, will benefit from the sale of alcohol by providing for a wider diversity of businesses that add character to the area.
Findings for Denial
The following are findings for denial due to nearby businesses that sell beer and wine:
1. Granting the permit would constitute a nuisance or be injurious or detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or welfare, or materially injurious to persons, property, or improvements in the vicinity and zone in which the property is located, because there is already a restaurant in census tract 118.02 that serves beer and wine.
2. The proposed use is not deemed essential to the public necessity, as there is already a restaurant in the same census tract that serve beer and wine.
3. Based on the above findings, public convenience and necessity will not be served by a proposed use of the property for the on-site sale of alcoholic beverages pursuant to law.
Conditions of Approval
Standard Conditions of Approval have been included with this permit as well as conditions specific to on-site alcohol sales per Council Policy 707 (hours of operation, employee training, and accessory sales, etc.).
Planning Commission
Meeting of November 4, 2024
Summary
The proposed use is consistent with the General Plan due to alcohol sales for onsite consumption being a conditionally-allowed use in Major Mixed-Use Corridor zone. The proposed use would be incidental to the proposed restaurant use in a commercial area. The addition of on-site beer and wine sales is not expected to increase the demand for parking, other services on the property, or have any significant effects on the area. The census tract in which the restaurant is located is not considered over-concentrated with regard to on-sale alcohol licenses. Beer and wine will only be available with the sale of food and the Police Department has classified the establishment as Low Risk.

CASE FILE NO. 2024-20 CUP
APN: 556-414-09-00
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of National City considered a Conditional Use Permit for beer and wine sales at an existing restaurant (Mr. Pulpo Seafood) located at 831 East 8th Street at a duly advertised public hearing held on November 4, 2024, at which time oral and documentary evidence was presented; and, WHEREAS, at said public hearings the Planning Commission considered the staff report contained in Case File No. 2024-20 CUP maintained by the City and incorporated herein by reference along with evidence and testimony at said hearing; and,
WHEREAS, this action is taken pursuant to all applicable procedures required by State law and City law.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Planning Commission of the City of National City, California, that the testimony and evidence presented to the Planning Commission at the public hearing held on November 4, 2024, support the following findings:
1. The proposed use is allowable within the applicable zoning district pursuant to a Conditional Use Permit and complies with all other applicable provisions of the Land Use Code, because the use is allowable within the Major Mixed-Use Corridor zone pursuant to a CUP and the proposed use meets the required guidelines in the Land Use Code for alcohol sales, as discussed in the staff report.
2. The proposed use is consistent with the General Plan and any applicable specific plan, because alcohol sales are permitted, subject to a CUP, by the Land Use Code, which is consistent with the General Plan. In addition, a restaurant with ATTACHMENT 1
alcohol sales is consistent with the Major Mixed-Use Corridor zone land use designation and the Community Character element of the General Plan.
3. The design, location, size, and operating characteristics of the proposed activity would be compatible with the existing and future land uses in the vicinity, because no expansion of the building is proposed. The proposal involves an existing commercial space, which was previously analyzed for traffic impacts when it was constructed.
4. The site is physically suitable for the type, density, and intensity of use being proposed, including access, utilities, and the absence of physical constraints, because no expansion of the building is proposed. The proposed alcohol sales would be incidental to the primary use of food sales.
5. Granting the permit would not constitute a nuisance or be injurious or detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or welfare, or materially injurious to persons, property, or improvements in the vicinity and zone in which the property is located, because the proposed use will be subject to conditions that limit the sale of beer and wine as well as the hours that it will be available.
Beer and wine will only be available with the sale of food. In addition, all staff members serving alcohol are required to receive RBSS training.
6. The proposed project has been reviewed in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has been determined to be categorically exempt from environmental review pursuant to Class 1, Section 15301 (Existing Facilities) for which a Notice of Exemption will be filed subsequent to approval of this Conditional Use Permit. The reason for the exemption is that the use is proposed within an existing commercial building and the use is similar to other commercial uses in the area, which are permitted in permitted Major Mixed-Use Corridor zone.
7. The proposed use is deemed essential and desirable to the public convenience or necessity, because the restaurant, a permitted use in the Major Mixed-Use Corridor zone, will benefit from the sale of alcohol by providing for a wider diversity of businesses that add character to the area.
8. Based on findings 1 through 7 above, public convenience and necessity will be served by a proposed use of the property for the on-site sales of alcoholic beverages in accordance with applicable law and the recommended conditions.
The use, as proposed and conditioned, will operate in harmony with surrounding
uses, will not cause a nuisance, and will benefit the community looking for a quality restaurant experience.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the application for a Conditional Use Permit is approved subject to the following conditions:

831 E 8th Street, National City, CA 91950
Conducted: October 3, 2024
Photo of the proposed location.
An environmental scan was conducted on Thursday, October 3, 2024, for a proposed Type 41 on-sale alcohol license at 831 E 8th Street.
ATTACHMENT 7 Page 566 of 1135
During a scan of the business and premises, the following was noted:
• The business is located in a predominantly commercial area of a Mixed-Use District. • The location has limited parking with 10 spaces behind the building. • The location is in a multi-tenant building with a nail salon and a realty/mortgage business. • There are multiple alcohol retailers and full-service restaurants in close proximately to the proposed location, including a 7-Eleven next door, a liquor store 230 feet away, Salvadorian/Mexican restaurant, Hawaiian restaurant and breakfast restaurant across the street. • There was litter on the side of the building where 7-Eleven is located, and it appeared attempts had been made to cover graffiti on the property.
• There were a few unsheltered individuals with their property in the parking lot across the street.
Youth Sensitive Areas
Chuck E Cheese, approximately 1,580 feet away
Yeraldin Day Care, approximately 1,580 feet away
Central Elementary School and Pre-School, approximately 1,580 feet away Churches
First Baptist Church of National City, approximately 1,050 feet away, is the closest one to this location.
Crime Rate
A follow up request for crime-related information from personnel within the City of National City Police Department may result in obtaining a more detailed crime rate for this location.
Outlet Density
Based on Centers for Disease Control guidelines, alcohol density is defined as the average distance between a person and their closest alcohol retailer. In the map below, the darker the census tract, the less distance a person has to travel to their closest alcohol retailer. The proposed location is defined as very dense.
Considerations
The following are considerations if a CUP is issued:
• Require that staff, management, and owner attend an in-person Responsible Beverage Sales and Service training. See the California Alcoholic Beverage Control website for future trainings. • Consider establishing clear guidelines for when additional alcohol licenses will or will not be permitted within an already dense area.
• Require that that litter be removed on a daily basis and graffiti abated within 24 hours.

Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends approval of the request to modify the existing Conditional Use Permit (CUP) for on-site beer and wine sales for a new restaurant (Tacos El Franc) to expand into the adjacent suite, subject to the recommended conditions in the attached resolution and a determination that the project is exempt from CEQA. The sale of beer and wine is a conditionally-allowed use in the Major Mixed-Use District zone and would be accessory to food sales at the restaurant.
Executive Summary
The applicant has applied to modify an existing Conditional Use Permit for on-site beer and wine sales for a new restaurant, Tacos El Franc, located in the Westfield Plaza Bonita Mall. Tacos El Franc is proposing to expand the restaurant into the adjacent suite, increasing the total area of the restaurant interior to 3,771 square feet. There is also an existing 1,766 square-foot outdoor patio, which is in addition to the interior floor area. The proposed hours of operation are 10:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. daily. No live entertainment is proposed.
Site Characteristics
The project is located within the Westfield Plaza Bonita Mall on the east side of the lower level across from The Broken Yolk restaurant. The suite was originally approved for a CUP for alcohol sales (ABC Type 41) at a restaurant, Funky Fries & Burgers, in 2019. The previous restaurant was 1,739 square feet with a 1,766 square-foot outdoor patio. The applicant, Tacos El Franc, is proposing to expand the restaurant into the adjacent retail suite, increasing the total square footage of the restaurant interior to 3,771 square feet. The suite has entrances from the interior of the mall and the exterior patio.
The mall continues north, west, and south of the restaurant; further west is the Interstate 805 Freeway, further south is Sweetwater River Park, further east is multifamily residential, and further north is single-family residential across Sweetwater Road.
Proposed Use
The applicant is proposing to expand the restaurant into the adjacent suite.
Proposed hours for alcohol sales are 10:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. daily. Beer and wine would be delivered to the table upon request and would only be available with the sale of food. No live entertainment is proposed.
Planning Commission
Meeting of November 4, 2024
Analysis
Section 18.30.050 of the Land Use Code allows for on-site alcohol sales with an approved CUP. Additional requirements for alcohol CUPs include expanded notification, a community meeting, and distance requirements.
The suite was originally approved for a CUP for alcohol sales (ABC Type 41) at a restaurant (Funky Fries & Burgers) in 2019 and then closed in 2023. Since the use has not lapsed for more than 12 months, Tacos El Franc is assuming the license and applying for a CUP modification to expand the restaurant into the adjacent suite.
Hours of Operation for Alcohol Sales
The business is proposing to sell on-site beer and wine from 10:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. daily. The existing CUP for the suite was approved for 10:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 a.m. Friday and Saturday. The hours of operation for license holders located in Plaza Bonita range from 6:00 a.m. to 12:00 a.m. for the varying properties. Most recently, Manna Heaven BBQ was approved for 10 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. and Round 1 was approved for 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 a.m. daily.
Mailing - All property owners and occupants within a distance of 660 feet are required to be notified of a public hearing for alcohol-related CUP applications.
Notice of this public hearing was sent to 224 occupants and owners.
Comments
The Planning Division has not received any public comment as of the writing this report.
Community Meeting - Pursuant to Section 18.30.050 (C) of the National City Zoning Code, a community meeting was held Thursday, September 26, 2024 at 10:30 a.m. at the subject restaurant. The meeting advertisement is attached (Attachment 8). One employee of a business located in the mall attended the meeting.
Distance Requirements - Chapter 18.030.050 (D) of the National City Zoning Code requires a 660-foot distance from any public school; there are no schools within 660 of the site. In addition, restaurants with greater than 30% of their area devoted to seating are exempt from this distance requirement. The property in
Planning Commission
Meeting of November 4, 2024
question has over 42% of its floor area devoted to seating, not including the patio.
Alcohol Sales Concentration/Location
According to the California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC), there are currently 11 on-site sale licenses in this census tract (32.04) where a maximum of five are recommended. Therefore, this census tract is considered by ABC to be over-saturated with regard to alcohol sales outlets. However, two of the licenses are located outside of the City and no increase in the amount of licenses would occur since the applicant is assuming one of the existing licenses.
Census tract 32.04 includes the area south of the Interstate 54, north of Bonita Road, west of Sweetwater Road, and east of the Interstate 805. The attached census tract map shows the location of the subject tract (Attachment 5).
Police Department (PD)
The ABC Risk Assessment provided by PD allocated a total of 12 points, which places it in the Low Risk category (Low Risk is considered 12 or less points). The Risk Assessment is included as attachment 6.
Institute for Public Strategies
Comments were received from IPS with the following considerations:
1. Require that staff, management, and owner attend an in-person Responsible Beverage Sales and Service training. See the California Alcoholic Beverage Control website for future trainings.
2. To prevent crime and nuisance activities, require that the restaurant have hors of operation with alcohol sales ending no later than 12:00 a.m. daily.
3. Require signage indicating that alcoholic beverages may not be take beyond the front patio exit and onto the sidewalk.
Standard conditions of approval are included in the report in compliance with City Council Policy 707. IPS comments are included as Attachment 7.
Findings for Approval
The Municipal Code contains six required findings for CUPs as follows:
1. Allowable Use: Alcohol sales are allowable within Major Mixed-Use District zone, pursuant to a CUP, and the proposed use meets the required guidelines in the Land Use Code for alcohol sales, as discussed in the
Planning Commission
Meeting of November 4, 2024
staff report. The use is incidental to the proposed restaurant use in a commercial area.
2. General Plan Consistency: Alcohol sales is a permitted use, subject to a CUP, by the Land Use Code, which is consistent with the General Plan. In addition, a restaurant with alcohol sales is consistent with the Major Mixed-Use District zone land use designation and the Community Character element of the General Plan.
3. Compatibility, LUC, and Traffic: No expansion of the building is proposed.
The proposal involves an existing commercial space, which was previously analyzed for traffic impacts when it was constructed. The site is physically suitable for the type, density, and intensity of use being proposed, including access, utilities, and the absence of physical constraints. The proposed uses would be incidental to the primary use of food service.
4. No Nuisance: The proposed use will be subject to conditions that limit the sale of beer and wine as well as the hours that it will be available. Beer and wine will only be available with the sale of food. In addition, all staff members serving alcohol are required to receive RBSS training. There is no live entertainment proposed on site.
5. California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA): The proposed project has been reviewed in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has been determined to be categorically exempt from environmental review pursuant to Class 1, Section 15301 (Existing Facilities) for which a Notice of Exemption will be filed subsequent to approval of this Conditional Use Permit. The reason for the exemption is that the use is proposed within an existing commercial building, and the use is similar to other commercial uses in the area, which are permitted in Major Mixed-Use District zone.
6. Public Convenience and Necessity: The restaurant, a permitted use in the Major Mixed-Use District zone, will benefit from the sale of alcohol by providing for a wider diversity of businesses that add character to the area.
Planning Commission
Meeting of November 4, 2024
Findings for Denial
The following are findings for denial due to nearby businesses that sell beer and wine.
1. Granting the permit would constitute a nuisance or be injurious or detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or welfare, or materially injurious to persons, property, or improvements in the vicinity and zone in which the property is located, because the census tract in which the subject property is located is currently over-concentrated with regard to onsale alcohol outlets – There are 11 on-sale licenses, where a maximum of five are recommended.
2. The proposed use is not deemed essential to the public necessity, as there are 11 restaurants in census tract 32.04 that already serve beer and wine.
3. Based on the above findings 1 and 2 above, public convenience and necessity will not be served by a proposed use of the property for the retail sales of alcoholic beverages pursuant to law.
Conditions of Approval
Standard Conditions of Approval have been included with this permit, as well as conditions specific to on-sale alcohol sales per City Council Policy 707 (alcohol incidental to food, hours of operation, RBSS training, etc.).
Summary
The proposed use is consistent with the General Plan due to alcohol sales for onsite consumption being a conditionally-allowed use in the Major Mixed-Use District zone. The proposed use would be accessory to the restaurant use in a commercial area. The expansion of the suite is not expected to increase the demand for parking, other services on the property, or have any significant effects on the area. Although the census tract in which the restaurant is located is overconcentrated with regard to on-sale alcohol licenses, no new licenses would be added. Alcohol will only be available with the sale of food and the Police Department has classified the establishment as Low Risk.

APN: 564-471-07-00
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of National City considered a Conditional Use Permit modification for beer and wine sales at a new restaurant (Tacos El Franc) located at 3030 Plaza Bonita Road, Suite 1108 at a duly advertised public hearing held on November 4, 2024, at which time oral and documentary evidence was presented; and,
WHEREAS, at said public hearings the Planning Commission considered the staff report contained in Case File No. 2024-14 CUP maintained by the City and incorporated herein by reference along with evidence and testimony at said hearing; and,
WHEREAS, this action is taken pursuant to all applicable procedures required by State law and City law.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Planning Commission of the City of National City, California, that the testimony and evidence presented to the Planning Commission at the public hearing held on November 4, 2024, support the following findings:
1. The proposed use is allowable within the applicable zoning district pursuant to a Conditional Use Permit and complies with all other applicable provisions of the Land Use Code, because the use is allowable within the Major Mixed-Use District zone pursuant to a CUP, and the proposed use meets the required guidelines in the Land Use Code for alcohol sales, as discussed in the staff report.
2. The proposed use is consistent with the General Plan and any applicable specific plan because alcohol sales are permitted, subject to a Conditional Use Permit, by the Land Use Code, which is consistent with the General Plan. In addition, a
restaurant use with alcohol sales is consistent with the Major Mixed-Use District land use designation and the Community Character element of the General Plan.
3. The design, location, size, and operating characteristics of the proposed activity would be compatible with the existing and future land uses in the vicinity, because no expansion of the building is proposed. The proposal involves an existing commercial space, which was previously analyzed for traffic impacts when it was constructed.
4. The site is physically suitable for the type, density, and intensity of use being proposed, including access, utilities, and the absence of physical constraints, because no expansion of the building is proposed. The proposed alcohol sales would be incidental to the primary use of food sales.
5. Granting the permit would not constitute a nuisance or be injurious or detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or welfare, or materially injurious to persons, property, or improvements in the vicinity and zone in which the property is located, because the proposed use will be subject to conditions that limit the sale of beer and wine as well as the hours that it will be available.
Beer and wine will only be available with the sale of food. In addition, all staff members serving alcohol are required to receive RBSS training.
6. The proposed project has been reviewed in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has been determined to be categorically exempt from environmental review pursuant to Class 1, Section 15301 (Existing Facilities) for which a Notice of Exemption will be filed subsequent to approval of this Conditional Use Permit. The reason for the exemption is that the use is proposed within an existing commercial building and the use is similar to other commercial uses in the area, which are permitted in permitted Major Mixed-Use District zone.
7. The proposed use is deemed essential and desirable to the public convenience or necessity, because the restaurant, a permitted use in the Major Mixed-Use District zone, will benefit from the sale of alcohol by providing for a wider diversity of businesses that add character to the area.
8. Based on findings 1 through 7 above, public convenience and necessity will be served by a proposed use of the property for the on-site sales of alcoholic beverages in accordance with applicable law and the recommended conditions.
The use, as proposed and conditioned, will operate in harmony with surrounding
uses, will not cause a nuisance, and will benefit the community looking for a quality restaurant experience.

Environmental Scan for
Proposed Type 41 Alcohol CUP
3030 Plaza Bonita Road, Suite 1108, National City, CA 91950 Conducted: September 5, 2024
Photo of the proposed location.
An environmental scan was conducted on Thursday, September 5, 2024 for a proposed Type 41 on-sale alcohol license at 3030 Plaza Bonita Road, Suite 1108. The proposed location is within the shopping mall Westfield Plaza Bonita.
ATTACHMENT 7
During a scan of the business and premises, the following was noted:
• The business is located in a predominantly commercial area of a Mixed-Use District. • The location has multiple transportation options including traditional car infrastructure, bus stops and a nearby bike path.
• There are multiple full-service restaurants in close proximately to the proposed location, including the Broken Yolk Café (100 feet away), Manna BBQ (150 feet away) , and Round 1 Bowling and Arcade.
Youth Sensitive Areas
Sweetwater Secondary School (500 feet away; located within the same shopping mall in Suite 1000)
Gladys’ Family Child Care (1,000 feet away)
Sweetwater Heights Park (approximately 2,800 feet away) Churches
Bonita Valley Seventh Day Adventist and Bonita Road Baptist Churches (each approximately 2,630 feet away) are the closest ones to this location.
Crime Rate
A follow up request for crime-related information from personnel within the City of National City Police Department may result in obtaining a more detailed crime rate for this location.
Outlet Density
Based on Centers for Disease Control guidelines, alcohol density is defined as the average distance between a person and their closest alcohol retailer. In the map below, the darker the census tract, the less distance a person has to travel to their closest alcohol retailer. The proposed location is defined as moderately overconcentrated/dense. Additionally, according to the ABC, five (5) on-sale licenses are authorized for the census tract where 3030 Plaza Bonita Road, National City is located. There are already nine (9) on-sale licenses for this census tract according to ABC records – exceeding ABC recommendations.
Considerations
The following are considerations if a CUP is issued:
1. Require that staff, management, and owner attend an in-person Responsible Beverage Sales and Service training. See the California Alcoholic Beverage Control website for future trainings.
2. To prevent crime and nuisance activities, require that the restaurant have hours of operation with alcohol sales ending no later than 12:00 am daily.
3. Require signage indicating that alcoholic beverages may not be taken beyond the front patio exit and onto the sidewalk.
4. Consider establishing clear guidelines for when additional alcohol licenses will or will not be permitted within an already dense area.

Project Close-Out and Notice of Completion for the Las Palmas Swimming Pool Renovation Project, CIP No. 22-01.
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution Entitled, “Resolution of the City Council of the City of National City, California, 1) Accepting the Work Performed by California Commercial Pools, Inc. for the Las Palmas Swimming Pool Renovation Project, CIP No. 22-01; 2) Approving the Final Contract Amount of $3,447,287.51; 3) Ratifying the Release of Retention in the Amount of $172,989.13; and 4) Authorizing the Mayor to Sign the Notice of Completion.” BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION:
Not Applicable.
EXPLANATION:
The scope of the Las Palmas Swimming Pool Renovation project included re-plastering, redecking and expanding the width of the pool by 10 feet. The pool's expansion was based on the City Council's desire to increase the pool's capacity for both programming opportunities and swimming time for City residents. The expansion of the width of the pool created positive benefits for the community, including:
A 100% increase in lap and recreational swimming for both programmed (fee-based) and free swimming.
Brought the pool to the standard size for competition at the high school and collegiate level.
Created the ability to construct different configurations for pool usage, resulting in more flexibility for programmed and free swim options simultaneously, increasing the overall use of the pool.
On June 23, 2022, the bid solicitation was posted on Planet Bids, a free public electronic bidding system for contractors. On June 28, 2022, and July 5, 2022, the bid solicitation was advertised in local newspapers.
On July 20, 2022, two (2) bids were received by the 2:00 p.m. deadline. California Commercial Pools, Inc., was the apparent lowest bidder with a base bid amount of $3,206,850. Upon review of all documents submitted, California Commercial Pools, Inc.’s bid was deemed responsive, and they are the lowest responsible bidder qualified to perform the work as described in the project specifications.
On August 16, 2022, City Council awarded the contract to California Commercial Pools, Inc. in the amount not to exceed $3,206,850 and authorized a 10% contingency in the amount of $320,685 to address any unforeseen conditions that may arise.
The Notice to Proceed with construction was issued on September 8, 2022. Construction started on September 12, 2022 and was completed on June 12, 2024. Photos of the completed project are shown in Exhibit A.
The change orders issued for this project are detailed in the Final Contract Balance Report (Exhibit B). The change orders and line-item adjustments increased the contract by $281,993.83.
This results in an 8.91% contract increase for a final contract balance of $3,447,287.51.
As a result of satisfactory completion of the project, staff recommends that City Council, 1) accept the work performed by California Commercial Pools, Inc. for the Las Palmas Swimming Pool Renovation project, CIP 22-01; 2) approve the final contract balance of $3,447,287.51; 4) ratify the release of retention in the amount of $172,989.13; and 5) authorize the Mayor to sign the notice of completion, which will be filed with the San Diego County Recorder’s Office.

Prepared by: Ricardo Rodriguez, Assistant Engineer-Civil Meeting Date: Tuesday, November 19, 2024
Approved by: Benjamin A. Martinez, City Manager
SUBJECT:
Project Close-Out and Notice of Completion for the P-1 Sewer Upsize Project - Phase II, CIP No. 20-01.
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution Entitled, "Resolution of the City Council of the City of National City, California, 1) Accepting the Work Performed by Ortiz Corporation for the P-1 Sewer Upsize Project - Phase II, CIP 20-01; 2) Approving the Final Contract Amount of $1,478,225.71; 3) Ratifying the Release of Retention in the Amount of $73,911.30; and 4) Authorizing the Mayor to Sign the Notice of Completion.
BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION:
Not Applicable.
EXPLANATION:
The scope of the P-1 Sewer Upsize Project - Phase II consisted of replacing approximately 600 linear feet of existing 8-inch sewer main with new 12-inch sewer main and approximately 400 linear feet with new 14-inch pipe. The area adjacent to the old land fill site (locally known historically as the “Duck Pond”) and also a portion of the pipe alignment within developed private property required trenchless installation using jack and bore construction. The existing 8-inch clay pipe, which was identified as undersized in the City’s Sewer Master Plan, had reached the end of its useful life and therefore, needed to be replaced.
On July 20, 2022, the bid solicitation was posted on PlanetBids, a free public electronic bidding system for contractors. On July 25, 2022, and July 27, 2022, the bid solicitation was advertised in local newspapers.
On August 18, 2022, five (5) bids were received by the 2:00 p.m. deadline. Ortiz Corporation was the apparent lowest bidder with a total bid amount of $1,631,274.64. Upon review of all documents submitted, Ortiz’s bid was deemed responsive and they are the lowest responsible bidder qualified to perform the work as described in the project specifications.
On October 18, 2022, per Resolution No. 2022-162 (Exhibit A), City Council awarded the contract to Ortiz Corp. in the amount not to exceed $1,631,274.64 and authorized a 15% contingency in the amount of $244,691 to address any unforeseen conditions that may arise.
The Notice to Proceed with construction was issued on March 14, 2023. Construction started on March 20, 2023 and was completed on January 11, 2024.
The change orders issued for this project are detailed in the Final Contract Balance Report (Exhibit B). The change orders and line-item adjustments made due to differing field conditions and an efficient construction process reduced the contract by $153,048.93. This resulted in a
9.4% decrease from the contract award amount, for a final contract balance of $1,478,225.71.
As a result of satisfactory completion of the project, staff recommends that City Council, 1) accept the work performed by Ortiz Corporation for the P-1 Sewer Upsize Project - Phase II, CIP 20-01; 2) approve the final contract balance of $1,478,225.71; 3) ratify the release of retention in the amount of $73,911.30; and 4) authorize the Mayor to sign the Notice of Completion, which will be filed with the San Diego County Recorder’s Office.
FINANCIAL STATEMENT:
The total authorized amount for this project, including contingency, was $1,875,965.64. As the final cost of the project was $1,478,225.71, the remaining authorized amount of $397,740.93 will be released back to the Sewer Fund balance.

Prepared by: Martin Reeder, AICP – Asst. Director of Community Development Meeting Date: Tuesday, November 19, 2024
Approved by: Benjamin A. Martinez, City Manager
SUBJECT:
Summary Vacation of an Unused and Undeveloped Section of Paradise Avenue East of Plaza Blvd.
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt the Resolution Entitled, “Resolution of the City Council of the City of National City Authorizing the Execution of an Order of Vacation of an Unused Section of Paradise Avenue East of Plaza Blvd.”
BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION:
The Planning Commission made a finding of General Plan Conformance.
EXPLANATION:
Executive Summary
The Engineering and Public Works Department is requesting to vacate a portion of undeveloped City right-of-way located on the north side of Paradise Valley Road (see attached Exhibit B). The reason for the request is that the City has a right-of-way constraint along the north side of a creek channel along Paradise Valley Road in this area: the City’s easement over the channel runs along the bottom of the creek and does not include the northern bank of the creek (see attached Exhibit C).
Site Characteristics
The area is adjacent to an undeveloped residential property (“Property”) to the south, and three residential properties to the north. This southern property is zoned RS-1 (Large Lot Residential) and is privately owned. On the south side of said property, adjacent to Paradise Valley Road, is a City drainage channel that is part of a CIP (Capital Improvement Program) enhancement project. The Property is generally used as storage area for contractors engaged in local infrastructure projects. The Property has been kept clean and free of weeds. The right-of-way to be vacated is 60 feet wide and is approximately 19,800 square feet in size. A steep dirt hill occupies approximately 25% of the property to be vacated.
Proposal
The Engineering and Public Works Department is requesting the vacation in association with the Paradise Creek Water Quality and Community Enhancement phase 2 project, currently underway
(“Project”). The project proposes to make the creek channel wider, which will encroach on to the adjacent private property to the north. Vacating the unused portion of right-of-way (Paradise Avenue), the City has requested an equivalent easement area on the north side of the creek, allowing the City to widen the creek and create an access road necessary for Public Works crews to maintain the channel, which is ready to be executed once approved. The right-of-way proposed to be vacated is 60 feet wide. If vacated, half of the right-of-way (30 feet) will go to the properties on each side.
Analysis
Pursuant to the City’s procedures, the summary vacation process starts with direction from the City Council, which was provided on May 7, 2024. The Planning Commission subsequently held a hearing to consider the conformity of the proposed vacation with the General Plan on May 20, 2024, at which time such a finding was made. The final step is for the City Council to adopt a resolution summarily vacating the street segment in question, which is the subject of tonight’s hearing.
General Plan Conformance
The street segment proposed to be vacated is an undeveloped “paper street” and is not designated as a road or street in the Circulation Element of the General Plan.
Vacating the street in this location would resolve a right-of-way constraint by ensuring an adequate easement over the creek channel in the area. In addition, it would facilitate a CIP project that will improve drainage through the area. The vacation would therefore be consistent with the following General Plan policies:
Policy S-2.1: Prioritize funding and implementation of needed flood control and drainage improvements.
Policy S-2.5: Encourage modifications to floodways to restore creek capacity, stabilize creek banks, and restore habitat or water quality, where feasible.
Summary
The General Plan Circulation Element does not identify the area as a road or street. The proposed street vacation does not conflict with the policies and goals of the General Plan. Furthermore, the vacation would resolve a right-of-way constraint and facilitate an important CIP project. Staff is recommending the summary vacation of Paradise Avenue in this location.
Options
1. Order the summary vacation of the unused section of Paradise Avenue; or
2. File the report (deny).
FINANCIAL STATEMENT:
There is an estimated cost of $1,000 to create the metes and bounds and the easement map that will be paid from the Integrated Regional Water Management (IRWM) Grant that is funding the improvements to the drainage channel.

RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF NATIONAL CITY AUTHORIZING
THE EXECUTION OF AN ORDER OF VACATION OF AN UNUSED SECTION OF PARADISE AVENUE EAST OF PLAZA BLVD.
WHEREAS, application was made requesting to vacate and close an unused section of Paradise Avenue east of Plaza Blvd., in the City of National City, County of San Diego, State of California; and
WHEREAS, on May 7, 2024, the City Council of the City of National City conducted a hearing and initiated said vacation and closure of an unused section of Paradise Avenue east of Plaza Blvd.; and
WHEREAS, on May 20, 2024, the Planning Commission of the City of National City considered the proposed vacation and closure, and found and determined that the vacation and closure of an unused section of Paradise Avenue east of Plaza Blvd. conforms with the City's adopted General Plan; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has considered the Planning Commission's report and recommendation, and the presentation of staff regarding the proposed vacation and closure; and WHEREAS, the National City General Plan does not consider the portion of street as an arterial or collector street.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF NATIONAL CITY, CALIFORNIA, DOES RESOLVE, DECLARE, DETERMINE, AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1: That the City Council hereby authorizes the street vacation as described on the plans attached to the Agenda Report is made pursuant to Chapter 4 of the California Streets and Highways Code and the City Council hereby determines the following:
1. That the right-of-way to be vacated is not needed for present or future public transportation uses, because the properties abutting the street under consideration will continue to have access public streets.
2. That the area to be vacated is not required as a non-motorized transportation facility for pedestrians, bicyclists, or equestrians.
3. That the vacation of the proposed segment of right-of-way is consistent with the City’s General Plan and because the street is not identified as a road or street in the Circulation Element of the General Plan.
Section 2: That the City Council hereby approves the street vacation subject to the following conditions:
1. That this Street Closure authorizes the vacation of 60 feet by 330 feet of Paradise Avenue east of Plaza Blvd. Except as required by conditions of approval, all plans submitted for
