2. OVERVIEW

2.1 Introduction
The City formed the District in 1995 to provide maintenance services to benefit certain parcels in the City.

The City designated the Mile of Cars Association as the entity that maintains and administers the improvements and services funded by the District. The Engineer’s Report (the “Report”) describes the District and the annual assessment per parcel for Fiscal Year 2025/26, which is based on the historical and estimated costs to maintain the improvements and provide the services that benefit parcels within the District.

The word “parcel,” for the purposes of this Report, refers to an individual property assigned its own Assessor’s Parcel Number by the San Diego County Assessor’s Office. The San Diego County Auditor- Controller uses Assessor’s Parcel Numbers and specific Fund Numbers to identify on the tax roll, properties assessed for special district benefit assessments.

Following consideration of public comments at a noticed public hearing, and following review of the Report, the City Council may confirm the Report as submitted, and may order the levy and collection of assessments for Fiscal Year 2025/26. If approved, the assessment information shall be submitted to the County Auditor-Controller, and included on the property tax roll for each benefiting parcel for Fiscal Year 2025/26.

2.2 Description of the District Boundaries

5. ASSESSMENTS
The actual assessments for Fiscal Year 2025/26, apportioned to each parcel as shown on the latest equalized roll at the County Assessor’s office, are listed and submitted at the end of this section. The description of each lot or parcel is part of the records of the County Assessor of the County of San Diego and such records are, by reference, made part of this Report.

5.1 Method of Apportionment
The law requires and the statutes provide that assessments, as levied pursuant to the provisions of the Act, must be based on the benefit that the properties receive from the improvements to be maintained. The statute does not specify the method or formula that should be used in any special assessment district proceedings. The responsibility rests with the Assessment Engineer, who is appointed for the purpose of making an analysis of the facts and determining the correct apportionment of the assessment obligation.

The figures in Section 5.1 are derived from a Special v. General Benefit Analysis performed in Fiscal Year 2013/14.

5.1.1 IDENTIFY THE BENEFIT
First, it is necessary to identify the benefit that the improvements to be maintained will render to the properties within the boundaries of the District. The improvements significantly improve the visual appearance of the streetscape, making the Mile of Cars a more enjoyable and desirable location for customers. The special signage and lighting provide a unifying theme, benefiting all of the properties within the District.

The District’s improvements and services provide benefits to both those properties within the District boundaries and to the community. The benefit conferred to property within the District will be referred to as an “aesthetic benefit.” The aesthetic benefit provided by the district improvements and services are supported by the City’s General Plan (the “Plan”) and the Citywide Goals and Policies regarding Land Use and Community Character for its districts. The Plan states a desire to, “have the community character integrated and to ensure that physical forms, patterns, and aesthetic features advance the City’s desire for a higher quality of life.” The aesthetic benefits provided by the improvements and services support the following City policies outlined in the Plan:
 Policy LU-5.3: Recognize the diverse needs of the City’s business districts through the development of policies, design guidelines, and implementation measures specific to the unique requirements of each district.
 Policy LU-5.4: Allow for adaptive reuse of vacant car dealerships and the establishment of new compatible uses along the Mile of Cars.
 Policy LU-5.9: Encourage members of the business community to participate in implementing actions to improve business districts.
 Policy LU-5.10: Assist the business community in evaluating the City’s marketing and development potential and in identifying development strategies that are beneficial to the public and private sectors.

Page 46 of 333 ends

City of National City
Fiscal Year 2025/26 Engineer’s Report – Landscape Maintenance District No. 1 (Mile of Cars) 8  Policy LU-9.1: Design developments along mixed-use and “community corridors” for the comfort and enjoyment of pedestrians and bicyclists. This includes features such as street trees, placing buildings close to the street, de-emphasizing parking lots and garages, limited driveway cuts, traffic-calming features, clearly defined street crossings, adequate lighting, and street furnishings where appropriate.
 Policy LU-9.4: Encourage an overall high-quality streetscape design, where feasible, that promotes narrow roadways, bike lanes; on-street parking, minimal curb cuts; enhanced crosswalks; appropriate sidewalk widths, landscaped medians and parkways; street trees, planters, and wells; street lighting; street furniture; way finding; enhanced paving; public art; and other features that contribute to the desired character for the City, where appropriate.  Policy LU-11.2: Identify gateways at major entrances to the City using such features as buildings, street trees, welcome signs, decorative lighting, archways, and other design techniques to announce the gateway.
 Policy LU-11.4: Recognize, maintain, and enhance the character and identity of residential neighborhoods and business districts.
 Policy LU-11.7: Encourage residential and businesses to clean and maintain their properties and public spaces to further a sense of ownership and community pride.  Policy LU-11.8: Require the sensitive placement, screening, and/or treatment of utility meters, boxes, valves, vaults, switches, plumbing, wiring, fences, etc. to eliminate or minimize the aesthetic impact to the neighborhood.
 Policy LU-11.9: Encourage the improvement of existing signage to help promote a more attractive street scene in business districts.

The Plan states these policies are important because a positive community image and quality community design instills a sense of pride and well-being in the community. The aesthetic benefit attained as a result of the services and improvements provided by the District is detailed below.

5.1.2 AESTHETIC BENEFIT
The aesthetic benefit relates to an improvement in the District’s visual appearance as a result of the District improvements and services. The beautification of property within the District can best be described as the ability for the property within the District to develop and operate at the property’s highest and best use. Properties within the District receive the following aesthetic benefits as a result of the District’s improvements and services:
 Uniform and up-to-date streetscape and median and frontage improvements create cohesion throughout the District from 18th Street to SR 54. This District cohesion enhances the experience for all stakeholders.
 The improvements and services enhance the community identity of the Mile of Cars area, which will lead to a stronger and healthier street corridor. The image of the Mile of Cars area is improved by maintaining the median and frontage improvements.
 The District revitalizes and beautifies the Mile of Cars area. This revitalization encourages new business development and existing business retention and expansion which overall reduces vacancies and increases lease rates for property, more specifically, the auto dealerships located within the District.

Page 47 of 333 ends

City of National City
Fiscal Year 2025/26 Engineer’s Report – Landscape Maintenance District No. 1 (Mile of Cars) 9  The streetscape improvements encourage an increase in activity throughout the District. The Mile of Cars area becomes more pedestrian-friendly, thus improving activity for residents and businesses alike.
 Upgraded median and frontage amenities provided by the District enhance the appearance, desirability, and experience of the properties directly fronting the improvements provided throughout the District.

The streetscape improvements add aesthetic value to property adjacent to the improvements, but the improvements also make the property appear more stable and prosperous. The aesthetic benefit received by properties within the District assists each property in developing and operating at its highest and best use.

5.1.3 SEPARATION OF GENERAL BENEFIT
Section 4 of Article XIIID of the California Constitution provides that once a local agency which proposes to impose assessments on property has identified those parcels that will have special benefits conferred upon them and upon which an assessment will be imposed, the local agency must then “separate the general benefits from the special benefits conferred,” and only the special benefits can be included in the amount of the assessments imposed.

General benefit is an overall and similar benefit to the public at large resulting from the improvements and services to be provided. The District improvements and maintenance services, which are more fully presented in Section 2 of this Report, will be provided within the District boundaries only. There will be no improvements or maintenance services provided by the District outside of the District boundaries.

The District provides aesthetic benefits to the properties within the District. However, it is recognized that the District also provides a level of benefit to some property and businesses within close proximity to the District, as well as visitors and individuals passing through the District. Vehicular and pedestrian traffic from property within and outside of the District, as well as individuals passing through the Mile of Cars area, will be able to enjoy the improvements and maintenance services. Therefore, it is necessary to quantify the general benefits created as a result of the District improvements and services. A Special v.

General Benefit Analysis was performed in Fiscal Year 2013/14 to quantify said general benefits.

5.1.4 QUANTIFICATION OF GENERAL BENEFIT
As previously mentioned, general benefit is an overall and similar benefit to the public at large resulting from the improvements and services which are funded by the assessment revenue. The District improvements and maintenance services will be provided within the District boundaries only. There will be no improvements or maintenance services provided by the District outside of the District boundaries.

General benefits accrue to individuals “walking through” the District and to vehicles “passing through” the District. Individuals walking through the District are typically people who live in close proximity and whose origin or destination neither begins with nor ends at a parcel within the District. Any walking that begins with or ends at a parcel within the District are considered part of the special benefit for those parcels within the boundaries of the District.

Vehicles passing through the District are those vehicles whose origin or destination neither begins with nor ends at a parcel within the District. Any vehicle trips that begin with or end at a parcel within the District

Page 48 of 333 ends

City of National City
Fiscal Year 2025/26 Engineer’s Report – Landscape Maintenance District No. 1 (Mile of Cars) 10 are considered part of the special benefit for those parcels within the boundaries of the District. For the purposes of this analysis, it was determined that the general benefit quantification should be focused on vehicle trips passing through the District because National City Boulevard is a major thoroughfare which connects and provides access to SR 54.

To quantify and separate the amount of general benefit received by the general population as a result of the improvements and services provided by the assessment revenue, it has been determined that general benefits accrue mainly to vehicles “passing through” the District. Meaning, any vehicle using the City’s streets that lie within the boundaries of the District that is coming or going to a parcel within the District ultimately is not part of the “general public” benefitting from the proposed improvements and services.

Accordingly, the separation of general benefits from special benefits will be measured by that estimated portion of vehicle trips “passing through” the District.

In order to determine the estimated portion of the vehicle trips “passing through” the District, trip generation data was collected for each parcel within the boundaries of the District using San Diego County assigned land use codes and property characteristics. Each land use code was categorized and located in the ITE Trip Generation Manuals – 2nd Edition. Using the property characteristics and data gathered from the ITE Trip Generation Manuals, the estimated amount of Average Daily Trips (ADT) was calculated for each parcel within the boundaries of the District. The ADT were then added together for each parcel within the boundaries of the District to arrive at a total amount of vehicle trips generated by the District, which equaled 13,385 ADT.

The total average vehicle trips were then compared to the average vehicle trip generation data detailed in the City of National City Comprehensive Land Use Update (Transportation and Circulation) for the streets running through the District, which equaled 14,825 ADT. The comparison concluded that 90.29% of all vehicle trips passing through the District were coming or going to a parcel within the boundaries of the District, hence 90.29% of all vehicle trips passing through the District are designated as benefiting from the special benefits provided by the District. As a result, 9.71% of all vehicle trips passing through the District are general in nature and hence, do not receive any special benefit from the District.

Pursuant to the Special v. General Benefit Analysis performed in Fiscal Year 2013/14, 9.71% of the benefits of the services are considered general benefit. Accordingly, 90.29% of the benefit from the improvements and services are considered to provide special benefit to the properties within the District and thus are subject to the assessment.

In further making the analysis, it is necessary that the property owners receive a special and direct benefit distinguished from that of the general public. In this case, an in-depth analysis was performed and several factors are being used in the final method and spread of assessment.

All of the improvements are intended to be of direct benefit to properties within the District. These improvements require significantly more maintenance than normally provided by the City. It is therefore appropriate that the properties receiving the benefit be assessed for the additional cost.

Lineal frontage was assigned as the assessment variable by the original assessment engineer because all of the special aesthetic benefits received by properties within the District from the improvements and services provided, using revenues from the annual assessment levy, can be quantified best by identifying

Page 49 of 333 ends

City of National City
Fiscal Year 2025/26 Engineer’s Report – Landscape Maintenance District No. 1 (Mile of Cars) 11 the lineal frontage of the property along National City Boulevard. Lineal frontage is a tangible property characteristic that clearly ties the aesthetic benefits received by parcels within the District to the amount of frontage of each property, which is where the aesthetic benefit is to be received and realized.

The improvements and maintenance services being provided to and enjoyed by the parcels within the District provide an aesthetic benefit not provided to any parcels outside of the District boundaries. The annual assessment is based upon a parcel’s lineal frontage unless otherwise identified by the original assessment engineer, as previously approved by property owners at the formation of the District.

There are generally two categories of improvements to be maintained by the District – the median improvements and the frontage improvements. The median improvements benefit all properties within the District. The improvements to the parkway (referred to herein as Frontage Improvements) benefit those properties which they abut. The specific method of spreading the assessment is described below:

5.1.6 MEDIAN IMPROVEMENTS

1. The total cost for maintenance of the Median Improvements is apportioned to all parcels in the District and is based on the frontage of each parcel along National City Boulevard.

2. Parcel 32 (APN 562-220-11) does not have frontage on National City Boulevard, but receives some benefit from median improvements and maintenance services benefiting properties within the boundaries of the District. As a result, the original assessment engineer determined that the parcel received a lower level of benefit and therefore assigned 100 frontage feet of benefit to the parcel.

5.1.7 FRONTAGE IMPROVEMENTS

1. The total cost for maintenance of the Frontage Improvements is apportioned to all parcels in the District and is based on the frontage of each parcel along National City Boulevard.

2. Parcel 32 (APN 562-220-11) does not have frontage on National City Boulevard. As such, Parcel 32 receives no benefit from the frontage improvements.

3. The frontage of each parcel is determined from current Assessor’s maps for the County of San Diego, State of California. All frontage dimensions have been rounded to the nearest foot.

5.3 Assessment Roll
Assessor’s parcel identification, for each lot or parcel within the District, shall be based on the San Diego County Assessor’s secured roll data for the applicable year in which this Engineer’s Report is prepared and is incorporated herein by reference.

A listing of parcels assessed within the District for Fiscal Year 2025/26, along with the assessment amounts, is on file in the office of the City Clerk. If any parcel submitted for collection is identified by the San Diego County Auditor/Controller to be invalid for the current fiscal year, a corrected parcel number and/or new parcel numbers will be identified and resubmitted to the San Diego County Auditor/Controller. The assessment amount to be levied and collected for the resubmitted parcel(s) shall be based on the method of apportionment and assessment rate approved in this Engineer’s Report. Therefore, if a single parcel has changed to multiple parcels, the assessment amounts applied to each of the new parcels shall be recalculated and applied according to the approved method of apportionment and assessment rate rather than a proportionate share of the original assessment.

Non-assessable lots or parcels include areas of public streets and other roadways (typically not assigned a parcel number), dedicated public easements, open space areas and right-of-ways, including public greenbelts and parkways, utility right-of-ways, common areas, bifurcated lots, and any other property that cannot be developed or has specific development restrictions. These types of parcels are considered to receive little or no benefit from the improvements and are therefore, exempted from assessment.

SUBJECT:

Intention to Conduct a Public Hearing on June 3, 2025 and to Levy and Collect Assessments for the Landscape Maintenance District No. 1.

RECOMMENDATION:

BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION:

Each year, the City Council consi ders the adoption of resolutions to allow the District to continue operating with funding through a special tax levy on properties within the District. The resolution would declare the City’s intention to conduct a public hearing and to levy and collect as sessments on behalf of the District for Fiscal Year 2025-26 based on the Engineer’s Report, an annual report that identifies the assessment to be levied and the work program to be conducted by the Mile of Cars Landscape Maintenance District. The Mile of Cars Association has approved the scope of work, the proposed assessment, and the District budget. The proposed total assessment of $177,160.66 is an increase of 5.6% over the prior year's total assessment The City’s consultant and City administrative costs are paid from the District’s assessment funds.

FINANCIAL STATEMENT:

The total proposed budget for the District for Fiscal Year 2025-26 is $ 193,695.95. The funding sources include $177,160.66 from assessments levied on property owners who directly benefit from the maintenance and improvements carried out within the district, and $16,535.29 from the City’s General Fund to pay for the general benefit to the public at large from the District’s operations. Because the City owns one of the parcels within the district (APN 562-321-08-00), it will pay a share of the $177,160.66, which for Fiscal Year 2025-26 will be $2,906.68, bringing the total general fund cost to $19,441.97.

Also on June 20, 2023, City Council adopted Resolution 2023 -89 authorizing an appropriation in the amount of $400,000 from the San Diego Unified Port District (Port) for the FRANC shuttle service.

On April 16, 2024, City Council adopted Resolution 2024 -29 authorizing an appropriation in the amount of $500,004 in additional funding from CALSTART via Voucher Agreement Number MP20W1A-19. CALSTART is a national clean transportation nonprofit consortium that CARB selected to administer its CMO Voucher Program.

In 2024, CALSTART announced the availability of additional “set-aside” funds for current CMO Voucher Program projects. On February 13, 2025, staff submitted an additional funding request in the amount of $300,000 (maximum available per agency), which was subsequently approved.

AGENDA REPORT

Department: Engineering & Public Works
Prepared by: Tirza Gonzales, Operations Manager
Meeting Date: Tuesday, May 20, 2025
Approved by: Scott W. Huth, Interim City Manager

SUBJECT:

Authorize the Buildout of Six (6) Police Utility Interceptors for the National City Police Department

RECOMMENDATION:

Adopt a Resolution Entitled, "Resolution of the City Council of the City of National City, California, 1) Waiving the Formal Bid Process Pursuant to NCMC Section 2.60.110(B) Regarding Exceptions to Formal Competitive Bidding and Authorizing Purchase and Installation Services from American Emergency Products in a Not-to-Exceed amount of $197,000 to Complete the Buildouts for Six Police Utility Interc eptors for the National City Police Department; 2) Authorizing a Fiscal Year 2025 Budget Adjustment to Establish an Appropriation in the Amount of $65,000 in the Vehicle Acquisition Fund; and 3) Authorizing the City Manager to Approve Adjustments of up to $19,700 to the Not-to-Exceed Amounts for the Purchase as a 10% Contingency for Unforeseen Fluctuations in Pricing.”

BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION:

Not Applicable.

EXPLANATION:

On October 15, 2024, the City Council adopted Resolution 2024-120 authorizing the purchase of six Ford Police Utility Interceptors for the National City Police Department that w ere approved through the FY24 Annual Budget. (The October 15, 2024 agenda item erroneously stated that the six vehicles were approved as part of the FY25 Annual Budget.) These approved vehicles were:

Quantity Vehicle/Equipment-Staff Use
4 Medium SUV – Patrol $ 300,000
1 Medium SUV – Lieutenant $ 75,000
1 Medium SUV - Supervisor $ 80,000

Due to availability issues, the ordering and delivery of the vehicles was delayed. As the vehicles are now beginning to arrive to the City, staff is now requesting approval for the buildouts for these six Police Utility Interceptors for the National City Police Department. The cost associated with this work is anticipated to be approximately $197,000 per the quotes obtained. Four vehicles will be built-out to support a Patrol officer, while the other two vehicles will be built-out to support one Lieutenant and one Supervisor.

Section 2.60.110(B) of the National City Municipal Code provides that the City Council may waive formal competitive bidding requirements when, among other reasons, competitive bidding is or would be impractical or impossible or the circumstances are such that no obvious, ascertainable advantage to the City could result, and such a determination has been made in this case,

Page 89 of 333 ends

therefore, it is recommended that the purchase be made without complying with the competitive bidding procedure set forth in the Municipal Code.

National City’s staff has confirmed that, due to the need to complete the buildouts for the new police vehicles in a timely manner, coupled with AEP’s development of a proprietary plug -and- play wire harness system customized for and used on other Police Departments’ patrol vehicles (as well as Fire Department vehicles), competitive bidding would be impractical or impossible and there is no obvious, ascertainable advantage from such bidding.

Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the resolution as stated.

FINANCIAL STATEMENT:

The budgeted cost for the six vehicles , including the buildouts was $455,000. The cost for the vehicles was $323,000, leaving $132,000 available for the buildouts now costing $197,000 to purchase. Due to this unanticipated increase in pricing, a FY25 budget adjustment in the amount of $6 5,000 is necessary. Fund balance in the Vehicle Acquisition Fund ( 644) is available to support the additional appropriations, and if needed, any portion of the contingency of $19,700.

644-10-21-21100-7511- Automotive Equipment (Buildouts) $197,000 644-10-21-21100-7511- Contingency (if needed) $19,700

It should be noted that a total of seven vehicles were approved for purchase for the Police Department in the FY24 budget. The seventh vehicle is a K -9 vehicle at a budgeted cost of $80,000 including buildouts. Once this vehicle is available for purchase, staff will return to the City Council to seek necessary authorizations and any potential related budget adjustments.
