Total Points
15 This business assess at a medium risk and is deserving of such a rating. This census tract is over populated with both on and off sales businesses. This business is intermingled with residential and commercial properties. Late hour music/live entertainment daily until 1130PM could cause a problem for residents in the area. There is minimal lighting during hours of darkness at the business. The business should better illuminate the front of business due to its late hours of operations for both patrons and the residents. National City should consider better street lighting and a tree maintenance plan in the area. Camacho 449 ✔ ✔

Environmental Scan
Conditional Use Permit (CUP) for alcohol sales (Beer & Wine) and live entertainment at an existing restaurant
1524 McKinley Ave., National City, CA 91950
Conducted: April 22, 2025
Photo of the proposed location
An environmental scan was conducted at 1 p.m. on Tuesday, April 22, 2025, for alcohol sales (Beer & Wine) and live entertainment at an existing restaurant. The location is between Handy Metal Mart to the south and Walashek Industrial & Marine Inc. to the north. It is surrounded by numerous other similar commercial uses. The restaurant was closed at the time the environmental scan was conducted.

Proposed hours
Live Entertainment: 10 a.m. to 11:30 p.m. daily
Alcohol Sales: 8 a.m. to 12 a.m. daily

During a scan of the business and premises, the following was noted:
• A small residential structure was approximately 150 feet away. • A Circle K service station was approximately 500 feet away. • A multiple-story apartment complex, McKinley Apartments, approximately 1,000 feet away on McKinley Avenue, with graffiti on the fence between these two locations.

Youth Sensitive Areas/Other Vulnerable Locations
Kimball Elementary School, approximately 1,500 feet away Churches
St. Anthony of Pardua, Missionary Church of God, and First Christian Spiritualist, (each approximately 1,500 feet away) are the closest ones to this location.

Crime Rate
A request for crime-related information from personnel within the City of National City Police Department should determine whether existing violations against the property or applicant or incidents in the area have occurred that would discourage allowing live entertainment, extended hours and alcohol sales.

Online Reviews
• Lack of parking and large crowds during breakfast hours when the restaurant is currently open (8 a.m. – 2 p.m.)
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.

IPS has begun utilizing the following scale to more clearly define outlet density.

Least Dense (lightest color)
Somewhat Dense
Dense
Very Dense
Extremely Dense (darkest color)
The proposed location is defined as “Very Dense.”

Considerations
The following are considerations:

1. Require that staff and management attend an in-person LEAD training or an in-person RBS training from an ABC-authorized training provider. In-person trainings offer interactive and hands-on learning which are recommended over online trainings.

2. To prevent the establishment from transforming into a night club, which could increase crime and nuisance problems, require that the restaurant always provide breakfast, lunch and dinner through 12:00 am.

3. Require that the establishment must submit receipts as evidence of food sales offered along with alcohol before annual renewal of license.

Analysis

Planning Commission
Meeting of July 21, 2025

Section 18.30.050 of the Land Use Code allows for on-site alcohol sales and live entertainment 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
Sushi N’ Gone is proposing to sell beer and wine from 8:00 a.m. to midnight daily. They are also proposing live entertainment (DJs, bands, guitarist, etc.) from 11:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and from 11:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. Friday through Saturday.

The site, previously known as KeBURROS, had an approved CUP in 2021 to sell beer and wine from 7:00 a.m. to 12:00 a.m. daily. While the use was discontinued, the previously approved hours exceed the hours proposed by the current business. However, the previous CUP did not include live entertainment.

Restaurants with on-site alcohol sales and live entertainment have been approved with varying hours throughout the city. Most recently, Mariscos El Tiburon (543 Highland Avenue) was approved for alcohol sales from 9:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. Friday & Saturday and live entertainment from 4:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. Friday & Saturday and 4:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Sunday. This business was located in closer proximity to residential units than subject restaurant, Sushi N’ Gone.

In 2024, Mariscos La Capital was approved for alcohol sales from 8:00 a.m. to 11:30 p.m. daily, although the restaurant did not include live entertainment. In 2023, Friends of Friends (127 E 8th St,) was approved for on-site alcohol sales from 6:00 a.m. to 1:00 a.m. and live entertainment from 12:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m.

Sunday to Thursday and 12:00 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday. Similarly, in 2022, Market on 8th was approved for on-site alcohol sales until 1:00 a.m. daily and live entertainment until 11:30 p.m. on weekends.

Based on the recently approved hours for restaurants with alcohol sales and live entertainment and the location of the restaurant, staff is amenable to the hours proposed by the applicant. Proposed hours for alcohol sales are from 8:00 a.m. to midnight daily. Proposed hours for live entertainment are from 11:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and from 11:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. Friday through Saturday. These hours are consistent with previous approvals. It should

Planning Commission
Meeting of July 21, 2025

be noted that a Type 41 ABC license (On Sale Beer & Wine – Eating Place) requires that alcohol sales not exceed food sales. In addition, City Council 707 requires that alcohol must be purchased with food.

Concerns related to live entertainment usually involve noise impacts to surrounding non-commercial uses. While the subject property is separated by a grade change to the residential properties, conditions are included to address noise. Conditions include requiring doors and windows to remain closed during inside live entertainment activities, as well as compliance with the limitations contained in Title 12 (Noise) of the Municipal Code.

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 341 occupants and owners. No public comment has been received 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 Wednesday, May 7 th
, 2025 at 6:00
p.m. at the subject restaurant. The meeting advertisement is attached (Attachment 8); No community members 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 feet 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 question has approximately 50% of its floor area devoted to seating.

Alcohol Sales Concentration/Location
According to the California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC), there are two on-site licenses 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 addition of another license, the tract is well below the recommended number.

Census Tract 118.02 is the area from East 8
th Street north to the City boundary
and from Highland Avenue east to Palm Avenue.

Police Department (PD)

Planning Commission
Meeting of July 21, 2025

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 points or less). 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 and management attend an in-person LEAD training or an in-person Responsible Beverage Sales and Service training from an ABC-authorized provider. In-person trainings offer interactive and handson learning which are recommended over online trainings.

2. To prevent the establishment from transforming into a night club, which could increase crime and nuisance problems, require that the restaurant always provide lunch and dinner through 12:00 a.m. daily.

3. Require that the establishment must submit receipts as evidence of food sales offered along with alcohol before annual renewal of license.

Standard conditions of approval are included in the report in compliance with City Council Policy 707. IPS comments are included as Attachment 7. Conditions of approval are included that restrict the hours of alcohol sales and live entertainment.

Findings for Approval
The following are the required findings in the attached draft resolution:

1. Allowable Use: Alcohol sales and live entertainment 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 and live entertainment, 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 and live entertainment are permitted uses, subject to a CUP, by the Land Use Code, which is consistent with the General Plan. In addition, a restaurant with alcohol sales and live entertainment 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

Planning Commission
Meeting of July 21, 2025

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 limits 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. Live entertainment will be limited to acceptable hours and to levels of noise that will not disturb nearby residential uses.

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 and live entertainment by providing for a wider diversity of businesses that add character to the area.

Findings for Denial
The following are findings for denial:

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 addition of on-site alcohol sales and live entertainment may increase the propensity for overconsumption of alcohol and increase the potential for impacts to the surrounding area.

2. The proposed use is not deemed essential to the public necessity, as there are already two restaurants in the same census tract that serve alcohol.

Planning Commission
Meeting of July 21, 2025

3. Based on the above findings, public convenience and necessity will not be served by a proposed use of the property for live entertainment and the onsite 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.). Conditions related to live entertainment have also been included.

Summary
The proposed use is consistent with the General Plan due to alcohol sales for onsite consumption and live entertainment being conditionally-allowed uses in Major Mixed-Use Corridor zone; alcohol sales and live entertainment will be accessory to the existing restaurant use in an established commercial area; beer and wine will only be available with the sale of food; the census tract in which the restaurant is located is not considered over-concentrated with regard to on-sale alcohol licenses; and the Police Department has classified the establishment as Low Risk.

A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION

OF THE CITY OF NATIONAL CITY, CALIFORNIA DETERMINING THAT THE

PROJECT IS CATEGORICALLY EXEMPT FROM THE CALIFORNIA
ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (CEQA) UNDER CLASS 1 OF THE CEQA GUIDELINES SECTION 15301 (EXISTING FACILITIES) AND CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR BEER AND WINE SALES (ABC TYPE-41) AND LIVE ENTERTAINMENT AT AN EXISTING RESTAURANT (SUSHI N’ GONE) LOCATED AT 1539 EAST 8TH STREET.

CASE FILE NO. 2025-11 CUP
APN: 557-102-19
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of National City considered a Conditional Use Permit for on-site beer and wine sales and live entertainment at an existing restaurant (Sushi N’ Gone) located at 1539 E 8th Street. At a duly advertised public hearing held on July 21, 2025, at which time oral and documentary evidence was presented; and,
WHEREAS, at said public hearing, the Planning Commission considered the staff report contained in Case File No. 2025-11 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 July 21, 2025, 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 alcohol sales and live entertainment are 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 and live entertainment, as discussed in the staff report. It is incidental to the existing restaurant use in a mixed-use area.

2. The proposed use is consistent with the General Plan and any applicable specific plan, because the Land Use Code permits alcohol sales and live entertainment, subject to a CUP, which is consistent with the General Plan. In addition, a restaurant with alcohol sales and live entertainment is consistent with the Major

Mixed-Use Corridor zone land use designation contained in the Land Use Code and 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 uses would be incidental to the primary use of food service.

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. Live entertainment will be limited to acceptable hours and to levels of noise that will not disturb surrounding residential uses.

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 the 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 and live entertainment by providing for a wider diversity of businesses that add charm 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 live entertainment and 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:

General

1. This Conditional Use Permit authorizes the sale of beer and wine for on-site consumption and live entertainment at an existing restaurant (Sushi N’ Gone) located at 1539 E 8th Street.

The Notice of Restriction shall be approved as to form by the City Attorney and signed by the Director of Community Development prior to recordation.

3. This permit shall become null and void at such time as there is no longer a Type 41 California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control license associated with the property.

4. This permit shall become null and void if not exercised within one year after adoption of the resolution of approval unless extended according to procedures specified in the Municipal Code.

5. This permit shall expire if the use authorized by this resolution is discontinued for a period of 12 months or longer. This permit may also be revoked, pursuant to provisions of the Land Use Code, if discontinued for any lesser period of time.

A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION

OF THE CITY OF NATIONAL CITY, CALIFORNIA

DENYING A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR BEER AND WINE SALES (ABC TYPE-41) AND LIVE ENTERTAINMENT AT AN EXISTING RESTAURANT (SUSHI N’ GONE) LOCATED AT 1539 EAST 8TH STREET.

CASE FILE NO. 2025-11 CUP
APN: 557-102-19
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of National City considered a Conditional Use Permit for on-site beer and wine sales and live entertainment at an existing restaurant (Sushi N’ Gone) located at 1539 E 8th Street. At a duly advertised public hearing held on July 21, 2025, at which time oral and documentary evidence was presented; and,
WHEREAS, at said public hearing, the Planning Commission considered the staff report contained in Case File No. 2025-11 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 July 21, 2025, support the following findings:

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 addition of on-site alcohol sales and live entertainment may increase the propensity for over-consumption of alcohol and increase the potential for impacts to the surrounding area.

2. The proposed use is not deemed essential to the public necessity, as there are already two restaurants in the same census tract that serve alcohol.

3. Based on the above finding, public convenience and necessity will not be served by a proposed use of the property for live entertainment and the on-site sale of alcoholic beverages pursuant to law.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that copies of this Resolution be transmitted forthwith to the applicant and to the City Council.

BE IT FINALLY RESOLVED that this Resolution shall become effective and final on the day following the City Council meeting where the Planning Commission resolution is set for review, unless an appeal in writing is filed with the City Clerk prior to 5:00 p.m. on the day of that City Council meeting. The City Council may, at that meeting, appeal the decision of the Planning Commission and set the matter for public hearing.

Environmental Scan
Conditional Use Permit (CUP) for alcohol sales (Beer & Wine) and live entertainment at an existing restaurant
1539 E 8th Street, National City, CA 91950
Conducted: April 22, 2025
Photo of the proposed location
An environmental scan was conducted at 1:30 p.m. on Tuesday, April 22, 2025, for alcohol sales (Beer & Wine) and live entertainment at an existing restaurant. The location is on the corner of East 8th Street and Palm Avenue, with a Shell gas station to the east, a vacant lot to the south, a residential area to the north, a strip mall to the west and another strip mall to the northeast. The business was closed at the time the environmental scan was conducted.

Proposed hours
Live Entertainment: 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Sunday through Thursday, and 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. Friday and Saturday
Alcohol Sales: 8 a.m. to 12 a.m. daily

During a scan of the business and premises, the following was noted:
• Apartments immediately to the south of the vacant lot nearest the restaurant. • The restaurant is located at the bottom of a small hill with an immigration and tax service business at the top of the hill.
• Small parking lot to the front of the restaurant.

Youth Sensitive Areas/Other Vulnerable Locations
Rancho de la Nacion School and El Toyon School, each approximately 2,600 feet away, are the closest ones to this location.

Churches
International Church of Praise (approximately 528 feet away) is the closest one to this location.

Crime Rate
A request for crime-related information from personnel within the City of National City Police Department should determine whether existing violations against the property or applicant or incidents in the area have occurred that would discourage allowing live entertainment and alcohol sales.

Online Reviews
• Limited parking, small lot.
• From the outside is sketchy, but walking in the place looks clean. (5 months ago) • Family friendly though they do serve beer (1 year ago) • Customers commented on live music (7 months ago)
• Video of a band playing at the location was found on restaurant’s Facebook page • Concerned for my safety and security (1 year ago)
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 mean distance of a person to their average on-sale license in National City is 0.32 miles. The median is 0.25 miles.

IPS has begun utilizing the following scale to more clearly define outlet density.

Least Dense (lightest color)
Somewhat Dense
Dense
Very Dense
Extremely Dense (darkest color)
The proposed location is defined as “Extremely Dense.” Within the census tract that where 1539 E 8th Ave is located, the density is 0.27 miles, which is more dense than the average for National City.

Considerations
The following are considerations:

1. Require that staff and management attend an in-person LEAD training or an in-person RBS training from an ABC-authorized training provider. In-person trainings offer interactive and hands-on learning which are recommended over online trainings.

2. To prevent the establishment from transforming into a night club, which could increase crime and nuisance problems, require that the restaurant always provide lunch and dinner through 12:00 am.

3. Require that the establishment must submit receipts as evidence of food sales offered along with alcohol before annual renewal of license.

AGENDA REPORT
Department: Fire Department
Prepared by: Eduardo Sanchez, Acting Deputy Fire Marshal Meeting Date: Tuesday, August 19, 2025
Approved by: Scott W. Huth, Interim City Manager
SUBJECT:
2025 Performance Report of Annual Fire Safety Inspections RECOMMENDATION:

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

Not Applicable.

EXPLANATION:

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

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

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

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

During fiscal year 2024-25, the National City Fire Department completed the annual inspection of 19 Group E occupancies, buildings, structures, and facilities. This represents a 100% compliance rate. Two dedicated fire inspectors were assigned to these occupancy types for the fiscal year 2024-2025. This department will also continue to enhance coordination and cooperation with school administration and maintenance staff, resulting in a reduction in violations that require reinspection.

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

Hotels, motels, apartments (with three or more units), and other residential occupancies that contain sleeping units are generally classified as Residential Group R occupancies.

Within the City of National City, there are currently 473 Group R occupancies. During fiscal year 2024-2025, the National City Fire Department completed the annual inspection of 473 Group R occupancies, buildings, structures, and facilities. This represents a 100% compliance rate. The Community Risk Reduction Department conducted residential occupancy inspections with the assistance of two Fire Inspectors. Additionally, the department has seen an unprecedented upward surge in building construction in the City of National City, resulting in an increase in residential multi-family properties and general construction inspections.

The combined effort with two (2) Fire Inspectors is trending to maintain the Department’s compliance rate for the mandated inspections in fiscal year 2025-2026.

FINANCIAL STATEMENT:

There is no fiscal impact resulting from acknowledging the National City Fire Department's compliance with certain state-mandated fire inspections. The report aims to inform the governing authority about the level of compliance with state-mandated safety inspections. This report should assist the National City Fire Department and its governing authority in planning and prioritizing available resources to appropriately staff and conduct state-mandated inspections.

AGENDA REPORT
Department: Finance
Prepared by: Janel Pehau, Financial Analyst
Meeting Date: Tuesday, August 19, 2025
Approved by: Scott W. Huth, Executive Director, Successor Agency SUBJECT:

Successor Agency Proposed Budget for Fiscal Year 2025-26 RECOMMENDATION:

Adopt the Resolution Entitled: “Resolution of the Board of the Successor Agency to the Community Development Commission as the National City Redevelopment Agency, California, Adopting a Budget of $4,128,682 for Fiscal Year 2025-26.”
BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION:

Not Applicable.

EXPLANATION:

Expenditures for the Successor Agency (SA) are governed by the Recognized Obligation Payment Schedules (ROPS) that are proposed by the Successor Agency, approved by the Countywide Oversight Board, and submitted to the State Department of Finance (DOF) for authorization. The SA’s budget for fiscal year 2025-26 totals $4,128,682 and reflects amounts authorized for ROPS 25-26, covering the period of July 1, 2025 through June 30, 2026. The State Department of Finance approved all items requested on the ROPS, but with a lesser amount of Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund (RPTTF) resources than requested because of other SA funds available to apply to the obligations. ROPS 25-26 will be funded by a combination of $3,849,778 in RPTTF distributions, $3,908 in interest payments on a loan provided by the former Redevelopment Agency to the Mile of Cars Association in 2011, and $274,996 in unexpended funds from prior ROPS periods. Adopting an annual budget is not required under the redevelopment agency dissolution legislation, but is recommended by staff as a measure of transparency. The proposed budget includes amounts for scheduled debt service payments, professional services, and City administrative services. See Exhibit A for budget details.

FINANCIAL STATEMENT:

The proposed budget provides for total expenditures of $4,128,682, revenues of $3,853,686, and the use of $274,996 of Successor Agency fund balance.

** Bond Principal Redemption amounts are shown as budgetary items for informational purposes only. In the general ledger and financial statements, bond principal payments made by the Successor Agency are shown as reductions to Long-Term Debt Payable instead of expenditures, consistent with accounting standards for fiduciary entities/funds.
** The use of fund balance is the difference between the total actual or authorized expenditures and the total revenue received or budgeted. Fund balance arises as a result of savings from prior ROPS periods.

Successor agencies are required to use funds on hand prior to receiving new RPTTF distributions.

The Proposed Budget for fiscal year 2025-26 for the Successor Agency is consistent with the Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule (ROPS) for fiscal year 2025-26 (ROPS 25-26) as requested by the Successor Agency and approved by the Oversight Board and the State Department of Finance. The budget provides for the payment of debt service obligations for the 2017 tax allocation refunding bonds (TARBs), administrative services provided by the City, and financial services related to the TARBs.

Approved by: Scott W. Huth, Interim City Manager
SUBJECT:

Continued Public Hearing - First Reading and Introduction of an Ordinance Amending Section

8.32.015 of the National City Municipal Code Related to the Keeping of Hen Chickens.

RECOMMENDATION:

Introduce the Ordinance Entitled: “An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of National City, California, Amending Section 8.32.015 ‘Restrictions on Keeping Certain Animals, Birds, and Reptiles’ of the National City Municipal Code Pertaining to the Allowance of Keeping Additional Hen Chickens.”
BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION:

The City Council held a public hearing at their meeting of May 20, 2025 and continued the item to August 19, 2025 in order to receive additional information.

EXPLANATION:

The City Council directed staff to prepare an Ordinance related to the keeping of chickens in the City through the Policy 105 process.

Section 8.32.015 of the Municipal Code (Restrictions on keeping certain animals, birds and reptiles.) currently limits the number of hen chickens as follows:

A. It is unlawful to keep, possess or maintain any animal, bird or reptile not prohibited by Section 8.32.010, except as follows:

2. Any combination of the following classes of animals, not to exceed a total of twenty, with each class limited by a maximum of four adult rabbits, four chinchillas, four hen chickens, four turkeys, four ducks, four geese or twenty pigeons may be kept on any property zoned for single-family residential use that is greater than twenty thousand square feet in area.

The numerical and physical limitations underlined above were incorporated into Chapter 8.32 in 2004, prior to which up to 12 hen1 chickens were permitted on properties zoned for single-family residential use.

The reason for the revisions proposed at that time were intended to bolster regulations to enhance public health parameters by improving greater restrictions on the keeping of fowl, and minimize

1 NCMC 8.32.010 (A) (8) prohibits any rooster (male chicken) regardless of size or whether it has been surgically de-crowed.

the serious exposure to Newcastle disease, avian flu, and West Nile Virus (WNV). Since that time, the state of California has been declared free of [virulent] Newcastle disease. With regard to avian flu, while there was an outbreak in 2004, there has only been one reported case in 2025 (east county). West Nile Virus is an ongoing concern and can be found in all 58 counties in California, including San Diego County. According to the County’s Vector Control Program data, the last spike in WNV cases was in 2015 and 2016 (367 and 266 respectively). Cases between 2017 and 2024 have ranged between 0 and 43 (average of 8.75 cases annually). Previous spikes were noted in 2005 (162) and 2008 (563).

With the increase in prices related to animal products, including chicken eggs, allowing additional hen chickens would allow residents to offset high egg prices by raising and harvesting chicken eggs at a higher rate than currently permitted. While there may be concerns related to avianrelated diseases, those concerns are less of an issue than they were in 2004 when the Ordinance was last amended.

At the May 20, 2025 public hearing, staff brought forward an Ordinance amendment allowing up to 12 hen chickens without a limitation on the lot size of single-family residential properties on which the chickens may be kept. Under discussion, staff was asked to look at other urban cities in the county with regard to their regulations in order to consider a more reasonable number. Staff looked at the cities of San Diego, Chula Vista, Lemon Grove, and La Mesa. Their regulations are summarized as follows:

San Diego: five chickens (outside of all setbacks) / 15 chickens (outside of all required setbacks or 15 feet, whichever is greater) / 25 chickens (minimum of 50 feet from residential structures).

Chula Vista: six chickens, minimum 7,000 square-foot lot size.

Lemon Grove: one chicken per 1,000 square feet of lot area.

La Mesa: no animal/poultry which emits loud or raucous cries.

Based on previous discussion and concerns, staff is suggesting a minimum of six hen chickens be permitted, with a maximum of one chicken per one thousand feet of lot area, not to exceed 12.

The attached Ordinance reflects this change.

FINANCIAL STATEMENT:

There would no fiscal impact to the City, as changes would not result in the need for additional permits or fees.

AGENDA REPORT

Prepared by: Martin Reeder, AICP – Acting Director of Community Development Meeting Date: Tuesday, August 19, 2025
Approved by: Scott W. Huth, Interim City Manager
SUBJECT:

Public Hearing - First Reading and Introduction of an Ordinance Adding Chapter 6.30 (Short-Term Rentals) to the National City Municipal Code.

RECOMMENDATION:

Introduce the Ordinance Entitled, “An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of National City, California, Amending Title 6 (Business and Franchise Taxes) of the National City Municipal Code Adding Chapter 6.30 (Short-Term Rentals).”
BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION:

Not Applicable.

EXPLANATION:

Staff gave reports to the City Council in December 2024, April 2025, and June 2025 to receive input and direction on the creation of a Short-Term Rental (STR) Ordinance. The Council provided additional language requests and asked staff to return with an ordinance for introduction in August.

Discussion at June 17, 2025 meeting
At the last meeting when this topic was discussed, several additional points were raised that required follow up:

Limitations on short-term rentals per Council District
The number generally arrived upon was a maximum of 180 total short-term rental units permitted at one time. While this would generally equate to 45 per Council District, staff is suggesting a maximum of 60 (or one third of the maximum allowed) in any one district. This has been incorporated into the attached draft ordinance (6.30.030).

Criminal background checks
It was suggested that someone who has a criminal record related to prostitution or other serious crime be prohibited from operating a short-term rental. While the majority of landlords may get criminal background checks from their tenants prior to renting, it is not prevalent in short-term rental ordinances for other cities for the permittees themselves to require one. Regardless of a background check, a permittee must adhere to the operating standards of any permit regulations.

If there are violations, citations and revocations would be a remedy. Revocation of a short-term rental permit requires a one year cooling off period prior to re-application.

Permit costs in other jurisdictions

The permit costs vary greatly between jurisdictions. However, we have been looking at the cities of Chula Vista and Vista for purposes of comparison. Chula Vista charges $250 for a permit, plus $175 per year thereafter for renewal. Vista charges a flat fee of $250 per year.

Bedroom storage requirements
The definition was modified to allow for cabinet storage in lieu or in addition to a closet (6.30.020).

Rentals not used for business purposes
The requirement that short-term rentals be used only for residential purposes and not for any business purpose has been incorporated into the draft ordinance (6.30.080 M) Location of primary residence
It was suggested that the permittee’s primary residence be in the City or within a quarter-mile of the short-term rental if outside the City. This has been incorporated into the draft ordinance (6.30.040 A)
Number of total rental days per year
Hosted short-term rentals are not limited in the amount of days that they be rented for. However, un-hosted short-term rentals are currently limited to 90 days per calendar year. This creates feasibility issues for property owners who are considering purchasing a property for purposes of operating a short-term rental. 90 days would mean that the property would sit vacant or be more likely to be used for non-sanctioned purposes. The only other option (other than the 90 days per calendar year) would be to switch from a short-term to long-term rental situation. This would be difficult to manage and unpredictable. However, the 90-day limitation would protect long-term rental housing more effectively.

The limit on the maximum number of short-term rentals in the draft Ordinance is 180. Based on the City’s Transient Occupancy Tax rate of 10%, 180 rentals at an average of $500 per night (see additional discussion below) would equate to approximately $9,000 per day, or around $3.3 million annually. However, based on the suggested language limiting non-hosted short-term rentals to a maximum of 90 days rental per calendar year, the potential TOT revenue would be reduced by up to 75%. While public safety and neighborhood livability are paramount, ensuring that the program pays for itself and for impacts on City resources, it is suggested that one of these limitations be modified to increase revenue potential.

It should be noted that a short-term rental property may be considered as a “hosted unit” even if the owner’s primary residence is on a separate property. However, in that case the primary residence must be immediately adjacent to the short-term rental property. There are current owners in the City that have multiple short-term rentals, most of which likely function without issue.

However, these would only be able to continue if they are located next door to or behind (immediately adjacent to) the primary residence. Otherwise, they would be limited in the future to no more than 90 days per calendar year as a short-term rental. Long-term rentals (more than 30 days) would be permitted as they are currently, subject to appropriate permits. Long-term rentals do not generate Transient Occupancy Tax.

Information Previously Presented
Two other San Diego County cities with STR Ordinances have numerical limits on rental nights per year or maximum number of short-term units. Chula Vista limits the maximum number of rentals for non-hosted units to 90 days per year. Del Mar has an overall limit of 129 short-term rental permits, or 5% of its housing stock. 5% of National City’s housing stock would 885 units.

There are no current regulations on STRs, which means that they are not technically permitted by our “permissive” Land Use Code. The only rentals regulated in the City are those of 30 days or more. While an exact number is hard to know, there are routinely 100-200 STRs shown in the

City as vacation rentals by owner, primarily on the Airbnb or VRBO platforms. Costs to rent are highly variable and range from $300 to $900 a night on weekends (April was used as a search parameter). Although ensuring compliance with the Municipal Code with regard to public safety is paramount, another issue is the missed opportunity to collect Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT), which is required for traditional hotel and motel room rentals. Other cities that have STR Ordinances require TOT payment, as well as conformance with other standards as discussed below. National City’s TOT is 10% of the room rental rate. If there were 100 units rented out at $500 a night, the resulting loss in TOT revenue would equate to around $5,000 a day, depending on seasonality and market demand.

Of the 19 San Diego County jurisdictions (including the County), nine have STR regulations (Carlsbad, Chula Vista, Coronado, Del Mar, Encinitas, Oceanside, San Diego, Solana Beach, and Vista). Another six, while not having any specific STR regulations, allow STRs subject to normal rental property regulations (County, El Cajon, Escondido, Imperial Beach, La Mesa, and San Marcos). Four cities, including National City, do not regulate or permit STR’s (the others are Lemon Grove, Poway, and Santee). TOT in the County ranges from 8% to 14%. The average TOT in San Diego County is 10.3%. All but two cities collect TOT on STR’s.

Because the majority of cities with STRs are beach cities with different populations, scenarios, and issues compared to National City, staff focused on the cities of Chula Vista and Vista, both of which have STR Ordinances and are similar in location or population. Both cities have basic requirements related to required permits, operating requirements, parking, payment of TOT, and maximum number of guests, as well as minimum stays (2 days) and transfer of licenses.

Chula Vista differs in that they require a STR landlord to maintain a primary residence in the city and limits a permittee to two STR licenses. They also allow events (weddings, parties, fundraisers, etc.) at STRs subject to a special permit. Vista has a more streamlined Ordinance, but allows up to five STRs per permittee and does not allow any events at STRs. Staff has attempted suggesting a streamlined, yet robust Ordinance that is a hybrid of the two, as well as with additional regulations based on previous Council input.

The next steps would generally be to discuss and introduce the Ordinance, adopt the Ordinance at a subsequent meeting, then implement the Ordinance. If this STR Ordinance is adopted, staff would then need to work with a vendor to implement a licensing and TOT collection program.

Three vendors have been identified so far, whose services range anywhere from $10,000 to $15,000 annually, depending on services selected.

FINANCIAL STATEMENT:

Adoption of a Short-Term Rental Ordinance will generate Transit Occupancy Tax contributions to the General Fund through application of Short-Term Rental permits. Future license and monitoring costs are intended to be offset by permit fees.

The Permittee shall post signs of a size, type and at a location (or locations) acceptable to the Director of Community Development near all doors leading to the exterior of a Short-Term Rental Unit, advising Occupants of “quiet time.” BB.

E. Prohibited Operations. If a short-term rental permit is revoked pursuant to this section, a short-term rental shall not be operated at the property for a period of 12 months from the date of such revocation unless the property has been sold and the new owner can demonstrate to the City that a change of property ownership occurred during that time period.

It is not a violation for an Occupant to merely be out of doors during quiet time hours, so long as there is no conduct that disturbs the peace and quiet of the neighborhood adjacent to a Short-Term Rental Property or causes discomfort or annoyance to any reasonable Person of normal sensitivity residing in the area. The Permittee shall post signs of a size, type and at a location (or locations) acceptable to the Director of Community Development near all doors leading to the exterior of a Short-Term Rental Unit, advising Occupants of “quiet time.”

AGENDA REPORT
Department: Community Development
Prepared by: Martin Reeder, AICP – Acting Director of Community Development Meeting Date: Tuesday, August 19, 2025
Approved by: Scott W. Huth, Interim City Manager
SUBJECT:

Public Hearing: Introduction and First Reading of an Ordinance Amending Title 15 (Buildings And Construction) of the National City Municipal Code Creating a New Section (15.83 – Lot Tie Agreements).

RECOMMENDATION:

Introduce the Ordinance Entitled: “An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of National City, California, Amending Title 15 (Buildings and Construction) of the National City Municipal Code Creating a New Section (15.83 – Lot Tie Agreements)”
BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION:

Not Applicable.

EXPLANATION:

The Community Development Department has occasionally had to deal with developments occurring on multiple properties that are owned and developed as one. These occasions have become more frequent of late, which has led to discussion of the usefulness, in certain cases, of a Lot Tie Agreement. A Lot Tie Agreement allows two properties to be developed as one without the need for a lot merger and allows for flexibility with building separation, setbacks, and joint access. For example, a building may be built across a lot line or be located within the normally required setbacks of a property where both properties are held and operated as one (as though the lot line between the properties were never there). The Lot Tie Agreement would allow for this to happen without being considered as a relaxation of required codes. In the event the properties were ever to be sold separately, the City would first require that the buildings in question be demolished or moved in order to remedy any code requirement issues, then the agreement could be dissolved and the agreement terminated. However, in order to utilize this tool, it is required that the Municipal Code make reference to the use of said agreements through Ordinance. This Code Amendment would create such an Ordinance and allow for Lot Tie Agreements in the future.

FINANCIAL STATEMENT:

There is no budget impact as a result of this action.

AGENDA REPORT
Department: Planning
Prepared by: Martin Reeder, AICP – Acting Director of Community Development Meeting Date: Tuesday, August 19, 2025
Approved by: Scott W. Huth, Interim City Manager
SUBJECT:

Public Hearing – Amendment of NCMC 9.38 establishing a Tobacco Retail License Program RECOMMENDATION:

Provide Feedback to Staff and/or Introduce the Ordinance entitled, “An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of National City Amending Title 9 of the National City Municipal Code by Amending Chapter 9.38 Pertaining to Tobacco Retailer Licensing and Restricting the Sale, Display and Promotion of Tobacco to Youth.”
BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION:

Not Applicable.

EXPLANATION:

At the meeting of January 21, 2025, the City Council directed staff per a Policy 105 request to consider development of an Ordinance amending Chapter 9.38 to include a Tobacco Retail License program. Staff returned with a staff report on March 4, 2025 and was directed to bring back an Ordinance amending the chapter and creating a Tobacco Retail License Program.

Chapter 9.38 of the Municipal Code – Restricting the sale, display, and promotion of tobacco products or cigarettes to minors – was adopted in 2000 and amended in 2003 (Exhibit A). This chapter contains regulations related to product placement within retail locations located within a thousand feet of any school, playground, recreation center or facility, childcare center, or library.

Advertisement of tobacco products within one thousand feet of the same is prohibited. Signage is also required stating that the sale of tobacco products and cigarettes to persons under twentyone years of age is prohibited by law and subject to penalties.

In addition to the regulations contained in Chapter 9.38, Title 18 (Zoning) also contains regulations pertaining to tobacco specialty businesses, defined as a business with more than forty percent of the floor area devoted to the use, display, and/or sales of tobacco products and/or paraphernalia. Chapter 18.30.230 requires a Conditional Use Permit for such a use.

In 2018 the City Council adopted amendments to Chapters 9.37 (Prohibition of Smoking in Open Air Dining Areas), 9.38, and Chapter 10.52 (Regulations for the use of municipal parks, playgrounds and golf courses). These amendments generally amended definitions of tobacco products to include electronic cigarettes.

In California, it is illegal for retailers and clerks to sell tobacco products to anyone under the age of 21. This law applies to the sale of traditional tobacco products like cigarettes as well as to the sale of electronic smoking devices like e-cigarettes and tobacco product paraphernalia. There is also a requirement for all retailers that sell electronic smoking devices in California to apply to the

California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (CDTFA) for a license. However, this is for taxation purposes. California law also now prohibits the sale of most flavored tobacco products, including e-cigarettes and menthol cigarettes. This law went into effect on December 21, 2022.

This Code Amendment request was made via a Policy 105 action that was initiated based on communication with National City For Better Health, in collaboration with SAY San Diego, administrators of the San Diego Smoke-Free Project, which encouraged adoption of a Tobacco Retail License (TRL) policy. The TRL program is aimed at ensuring local and state tobacco laws are being followed. The program, while containing rules already encompassed at the state level, would place the administrative and enforcement burden for compliance with the City. The intention of the program is for it to be supported through license fees. The main components of a TRL include:
 No new license within a thousand feet of youth-oriented facilities  No new license within a thousand feet of another tobacco retailer  No new license within a thousand feet of a cannabis retailer  Total number of retail licenses limited to one per 2,500 residents  No sales of flavored tobacco products
 Packaging, labeling, and pricing consistent with manufacturer’s specifications and applicable federal requirements
 Annual renewable permit
 No transfer of license between location or person
 Compliance monitoring
All other components of the existing Municipal Code sections are maintained in some form in suggested language provided by SAY San Diego and incorporated in the attached Draft Ordinance (Exhibit B). The license fees would need to be determined and approved by City Council, and will be incorporated into the City’s fee schedule.

Per the Draft Ordinance language, all lawfully operating retailers would be “deemed approved” subject to receipt of a Tobacco Retail License and compliance with basic standards such as; maintenance of license, no cessation of sales for more than 60 days, no substantial change in premises or operation, compliance with other requirements (e.g., state, federal licensing).

Based on an assessment by SAY San Diego, there are 54 existing tobacco retailers in the City.

Based on their initial one license per 2,500 residents suggestion, only around 22 new licenses would be able to be approved (based on an approximate current population of 55,000). This would mean that, assuming the majority of existing retailers get a license, no new tobacco retail licenses would be permitted without attrition. However, staff is suggesting that a limitation of one license per 800 residents may be more appropriate. The current number of licenses equates to about one per 1,000 people. Additionally, there is economic benefit that the City realizes from the legal and responsible sale of tobacco. Therefore, it may be preferable to not only bring the existing 54 retail outlets into compliance, but also to grow the number of licensees in the program if there is demand. It should be noted that the City’s daytime population is significantly larger than our stated population, which creates an opportunity to capitalize from sales to visitors.

Of note is the suggestion for each licensed premises to be checked annually, as well as least two compliance checks (decoy checks) per year. While this is potentially good policy, having an absolute requirement memorialized in an Ordinance may be problematic given that the number of existing retailers in the City, which would mean more than one inspection per week. Depending on priorities at the time, the ability to maintain that level of inspection frequency would be dependent on workload and staff positions.

Other cities in San Diego County that have a tobacco retail license program include Chula Vista, El Cajon, Escondido, Lemon Grove, Oceanside, San Diego, San Marcos, Solana Beach, and Vista. The County of San Diego also has its own program. For purposes of previous reports, staff looked at the Chula Vista and County programs.

The City of Chula Vista program is administered by the Police Department and costs $322 each year. Compliance checks are required every two years. Licensees are required to maintain a California Cigarette and Tobacco Products Retailer’s License in addition to a City business license and Tobacco Retailers Permit. The County of San Diego program costs $730 per year and requires compliance checks, including decoy operations, once a year.

If the City Council opts to adopt this ordinance and create a Tobacco Retail License program, staff suggests a fee closer to that of the County of San Diego ($730), but a compliance schedule (with decoy operations as an optional component dependent on workload and staff levels/priorities) similar to Chula Vista (checks at least once every two years). The language in the draft ordinance is as follows, which mirrors the suggested language by SAY San Diego:

The city shall conduct up to two compliance checks per 12-month period that involves the participation of persons between the ages of 18 and 20 to enter licensed premises to attempt to purchase tobacco products.

This language does not fully commit the City to two “decoy” checks per year, but this is a more likely outcome if the fee charged for licensing is commensurate to the anticipated time spent and cost of compliance. It should also be noted that code compliance staff will generally be tasked with visiting each retailer on a regular basis (likely once annually). Therefore, staff is suggesting that the fee for a Tobacco Retail License be set at $700.

FINANCIAL STATEMENT:

The license fee of $700 will pay for staff time associated with business inspections. Based on the 54 existing retail outlets selling tobacco, the total annual fee collected would amount to approximately $37,800, which would cover the cost of 54 annual business inspections and allow for a decoy compliance check program to augment staff inspections.
