SUBJECT: NOTICED PUBLIC HEARING: (Supv. Dist: 2) OVERVIEW: The purchase of Parcel No. 99-0154-A is part of an ongoing acquisition program to assemble and preserve important habitat lands and create trail linkage to other parcels identified in the Lakeside Multiple Species Conservation Program Preserve. This property is adjacent to several other parcels acquired by the County over the past eighteen months. The State of California, federal government and other agencies have committed to assist the County of San Diego to acquire or fund the acquisition of habitat lands within the Multiple Species Conservation Program Preserve areas. The Board is requested to approve the contract for the purchase of Parcel No. 99-0154-A from United Brokers Realty Inc. for the appraised value of $153,000 and to establish additional appropriations in the amount of $76,500. FISCAL IMPACT: Funds in the amount of $76,500 are budgeted in Capital Project KA9500 for the Multiple Species Conservation Program. Grant funds in the amount of $76,500 are being appropriated by this action. Fifty percent of the cost of the property will be offset by the grant of $76,500 from the State of California Habitat Conservation Fund, for a net General Fund cost of $76,500 in Fiscal Year 2000/2001. If approved, this proposal will result in no additional cost in subsequent years and the addition of no staff years. RECOMMENDATION: CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER: 1. Approve and authorize the establishment of appropriations in the amount of $76,500 in Capital Project KA9500, Multiple Species Conservation Program acquisitions, based on a grant award received from the California Wildlife Conservation Board.

SUBJECT: ALL-WAY STOP SIGN AT DEL DIOS HIGHWAY AND EL CAMINO DEL NORTE (Supv. Dist: 3) OVERVIEW: Has the recently installed all-way stop control at the intersection of Del Dios Highway and El Camino del Norte helped to alleviate traffic or has it exacerbated traffic conditions? FISCAL IMPACT: None RECOMMENDATION: SUPERVISOR SLATER: On April 12, 2000 (7-T), the Board of Supervisors passed a resolution accepting the recommendation of the San Dieguito Planning Group and the Traffic Advisory Committee supporting installation of all-way stop controls (stop sign) at the intersection of Del Dios Highway/El Camino del Norte. The Board approved installation of the all-way stop controls, directing that it be monitored for a period of 90 days, and a report prepared on its operation. This Board Letter is for the purpose of receiving a report from County staff regarding the effectiveness or non-effectiveness of this stop sign. ACTION: ON MOTION of Supervisor Slater, seconded by Supervisor Cox, the Board of Supervisors received the report and directed the Chief Administrative Officer to continue the study for the 90-day period and report back to the Board and to work with Rancho Santa Fe to evaluate the possibility of a signal that could be installed and be acceptable to the community, with review after Highway 56 comes on line. AYES: Cox, Jacob, Slater, Roberts, Horn 4. SUBJECT: INITIATING AN APPROACH FOR RIDING AND HIKING TRAIL PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT (Supv. Dist: All) OVERVIEW: In response to Board direction, a cross-functional management team in the Land Use and Environment Group is bringing forth a proposal to develop a comprehensive approach to trails. The proposal will address all aspects of planning and development of riding and hiking trails, and pathways. The outcome will be development and implementation of a long-range Trails Strategic Plan for County trails that satisfies community expectations. Previous input from community planning and sponsor groups, trails advisory committees, various trail organizations, and the public provides the basis for this new effort. Recommendations in this item are envisioned as the first of a three-step decision-making process by the Board. If approved, staff will develop and present to the Board information and program options for a Trails Strategic Plan addressing trails planning, funding implementation and management. That decision will allow replacement of policies and procedures that currently govern County trails, but do not provide planning, funding, or management mechanisms necessary for implementing a well-coordinated trails system. The final step will be Board approval of new formalized guidance reflecting all previous Board decisions. As a part of the process described above, staff is recommending a change in the overall approach to trails, from a regional “top down” process to a community-based, “bottom up” process coordinated with General Plan 2020. This approach will allow for greater consensus and acceptance, since trail solutions unique to communities will be possible and because trail discussions will be channeled through the existing Community Planning and Sponsor Groups. The Board is requested to affirm that recreational trails outside of existing County parks and County road rights-of-way are a form of public recreation the County should provide. This affirmation will provide foundational direction for development of the Trails Strategic Plan. Once the Board affirms this, it may begin identifying and considering commitment of resources for trail development and management. Staff will then develop trail design options that build upon this decision and can be coordinated with the General Plan 2020 process. To develop the Trails Strategic Plan and implementation guidance, staff is proposing an assessment of current trails issues, resulting in delineation of a recommended course of action and trail system options for Board consideration. Each option will include a cost-benefit analysis, identification of resources necessary for implementation, and suggested modifications to the County General Plan. Also proposed are planning, coordination and peer review activities, using consultant services. Together, this work will total approximately $473,000. While $200,000 is budgeted and available, a funding source for the remaining $273,000 has not been identified. The budgeted portion includes $150,000 in Gas Tax (Pathways) funds budgeted in the Department of Public Works FY 2000-01 Detailed Work Program, and $50,000 in Gas Tax (Pathways) funds, which were encumbered for this effort in FY 1999-00 as part of the current trails activities. To assure coordination and maximize trail opportunities, a “cross-functional management team” has been formed, combining resources from the Departments of Parks and Recreation, Planning and Land Use, and Public Works. These three departments have worked together in developing this proposal and will continue to collaborate on development of the Trails Strategic Plan. The long-term organizational structure for management of County trails will be an essential component of Trails Strategic Plan options that will be presented for Board consideration. An additional request is to direct staff to pursue a Memorandum of Agreement with the City of Chula Vista to jointly develop a pilot Trails Program within the Otay Ranch Plan Area. The Otay Ranch Plan provides an opportunity to allow passive recreational uses within Multiple Species Conservation Program preserve areas with minimal environmental and cost constraints. A pilot trail program in this area could link the Bayshore Bike Path, Sweetwater Refuge and Otay Wilderness Area. FISCAL IMPACT: Funds for this proposal are partially budgeted. $50,000 was encumbered in FY 1999-00, and $150,000 has been budgeted in the Department of Public Works Detailed Work Program in FY 2000-01. Funding for an additional $273,000 has not yet been identified. If approved, and adequate funding is identified, the total current year costs to develop the Trails Strategic Plan will be up to $473,000, and will be expended on as-needed consultant agreements. Funding - Recommendation 3The CAO is being asked to identify funding options for $273,000, which is the unfunded portion needed to proceed with development of the Trails Strategic Plan. Once funding is identified and approved by the Board, up to $250,000 will be used for a trails assessment contract. The remaining $23,000 would be used in combination with Gas Tax (Pathways) funds for consultants needed to perform other Trails Strategic Plan-related tasks and work with County staff to incorporate trail plans into the General Plan 2020. Otay Ranch Plan Pilot Trails Program – Recommendation 4Funds for this part of the proposal are not budgeted and are not part of this request. While there is no fiscal impact associated with the action requested today, estimated total cost of the pilot program could be up to $100,000. The County’s portion was identified in the Department of Planning and Land Use change letter for the FY 2000-01 budget, as an un-funded project with an estimated cost of $37,000. The exact amount and proportional contributions from the County and City of Chula Vista would be negotiated as part of a Memorandum of Agreement, which would be brought to the Board for approval once funding is identified. RECOMMENDATION: CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER: 1. Find, pursuant to Section 15262 of the State CEQA Guidelines, that neither an Environmental Impact Report nor a Negative Declaration is required for this project which relates only to feasibility and planning studies, and that environmental factors have been considered as stated in the staff report. 2. Find that riding and hiking trails outside of County parkland and County road rights-of-way are a legitimate and necessary form of public recreation that the County should provide. 3. Direct the CAO to identify funding options for $273,000, which is the unfunded portion needed to proceed with development of the Trails Strategic Plan, and present these options to the Board concurrent with the First Quarter Fund Balance Report. 4. Direct staff to pursue a Memorandum of Agreement with the City of Chula Vista to jointly develop a pilot Trails Program within the Otay Ranch Plan Area. 5. Receive a staff evaluation of the Santa Clara County Trails Master Plan. ACTION: ON MOTION of Supervisor Jacob, seconded by Supervisor Cox, the Board of Supervisors took action as recommended, directing the Chief Administrative Officer to return on June 13, 2001 with a plan to integrate the trail plan into General Plan 2020, and further directed the Chief Administrative Officer to come back with recommendations for interim measures for Lakeside/Granite Hills/Crest and some of the other communities. AYES: Cox, Jacob, Slater, Roberts, Horn 5. SUBJECT: TRAFFIC ADVISORY COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATIONS (Supv.

Dist: All) OVERVIEW: Supervisor Horn Board letter adopted March 28, 2000, and item 1. On March 28, 2000 (1), at request of Supervisor Horn, the Board directed the County Administrative Officer to evaluate how Geographic Information Systems (GIS) could be used to facilitate coordination of road-related construction projects between public agencies, utility companies and private contractors. The goal of enhanced coordination would be to minimize impact to commuters. The Department of Public Works was assigned responsibility for coordinating this investigation. Staff has prepared an Interim Report of Findings And Pilot Project Proposal describing development of a Project Awareness System. The goal of the Project Awareness System is to provide information on projects affecting County roads using GIS and the Internet, to enable roadwork coordination to minimize impact to commuters. Staff found a number of local agencies utilize the Internet to disseminate lists of their construction projects. Others use GIS, but mostly for development projects. Staff did not find any local agency utilizing a system as proposed. In addition, staff tested the Project Awareness System concept using the County’s GIS, SanGIS and a database. On this test system, a user can view a map indicating project locations, zoom in on a selected area, and click on project location to display information. Because of the test’s success along with local agency interest, staff recommends a pilot project be conducted to expand the system and confirm how the system could be implemented and maintained. Staff recommends tracking projects and measuring system effectiveness for projects in District 5 for six months. This is a request to receive the Interim Report of Findings And Pilot Project Proposal and authorize the Chief Administrative Officer to conduct a Project Awareness System Pilot Project. A report will be brought to the Board in March 2001 on findings of the pilot project and how countywide implementation can be accomplished. FISCAL IMPACT: Funds for Pennant Alliance services related to this project are budgeted in Department of Public Works Engineering Services Program. This request will result in a current year cost of $30,000, no annual costs and require no additional staff years. RECOMMENDATION: CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER: 1. Receive the Interim Report of Findings And Pilot Project Proposal on the Project Awareness System. 2. Authorize the Chief Administrative Officer to conduct a Project Awareness System Pilot Project and report to the Board in March 2001 on findings of the pilot and recommendations For countywide implementation of the system.

On June 27, 2000, the JPA submitted a list of properties proposed for funding application or acquisition in the unincorporated area in Fiscal Year 2000-2001. This list includes Cumming Ranch and the CML Investor parcels. The Board has previously approved all parcels listed under the Cumming Ranch property, thus authorizing the JPA to pursue acquisition of these properties, expanding the San Dieguito River Valley Regional Open Space Park, and increasing the public’s enjoyment of this open space area. The recommended action will approve the addition of the CML Investor parcels to the JPA’s acquisition list. FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact associated with this action. RECOMMENDATION: CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER: Approve the CML Investor parcels listed in the letter dated June 27, 2000, which are proposed for funding application or acquisition by the San Dieguito River Valley Regional Open Space Park Joint Powers Authority.

SUBJECT: FIRST AMENDMENT TO CONSULTANT AGREEMENT - COTTONWOOD III PARK, RANCHO SAN DIEGO (Supv. Dist: 2) OVERVIEW: On October 12, 1999(10), the Board of Supervisors approved the establishment of appropriations in the amount of $117,712 in Capital Project KN0787, Cottonwood III Park Improvements. Additional appropriations in the amount of $76,000 were included in the Fiscal Year 2000-2001 Capital Budget to supplement the project. A consultant was hired to work with the community of Rancho San Diego to prepare a site improvement plan for this undeveloped park site. This site plan provides for active use of the park, and includes a basketball court, a multi-use sports field, a junior playground, tot lot, interactive water play area, exercise/walking trails, on-site parking, a restroom, and picnic areas. This action will approve the First Amendment to the Consultant Agreement, in the amount of $121,575 for the preparation of construction documents and construction support services. Preparation of construction documents will begin in September 2000 and completion is anticipated in July 2001. Construction of the park facilities will be accomplished as funding is identified. FISCAL IMPACT: Funds for this request are budgeted in Capital Project KN0787, Cottonwood III Park Improvements. The funding sources are Valle de Oro Park Land Dedication Ordinance funds and General Funds. If approved, this request will result in $121,575 current year cost, $0 annual cost and will require the addition of no staff years. Once constructed, maintenance of the facilities will be the responsibility of Rancho San Diego County Service Area 26. There will be no additional cost to the General Fund resulting from this action. RECOMMENDATION: CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER: 1.

SUBJECT: GILLESPIE FIELD – LA JOLLA INVESTMENT COMPANY, INC. – FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE AVIATION LEASE (Supv. Dist: 2) OVERVIEW: La Jolla Investment Company has a 30-year lease, which commenced November 1, 1998, for an 11.18-acre aviation parcel at Gillespie Field. Their plan is to construct 24 luxury aircraft storage hangars, an office project and an addition to the existing Flying Museum. La Jolla Investment Company’s development was delayed due to construction of the Marshall Avenue extension, a joint project of the City of El Cajon and County of San Diego. Because of delay in La Jolla Investment Company’s construction, they requested a lease extension. The Board is requested to approve a first amendment to the lease with La Jolla Investment Company, Inc. extending the lease term by a two-year period. Proposed termination date will be October 31, 2030. This amendment will also include several updated lease clauses to conform with current County Counsel approved lease language. FISCAL IMPACT: If approved, this request will result in additional revenue due to the two additional years of the lease. There will be no current or annual cost and will require no additional staff years. RECOMMENDATION: CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER: 1. Find, in accordance with Section 15061(b)(3) of California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines, proposed amendment is categorically exempt from Guideline provisions because it can be seen with certainty it involves no expansion of use beyond previously existing use and will not have a significant effect on the environment. 2. Approve and authorize the Clerk of the Board to execute, upon receipt, three copies of the First Amendment to the Lease with La Jolla Investment Company, Inc. providing for a two- year extension of the term, to October 31, 2030.

SUBJECT: FALLBROOK COMMUNITY AIRPARK – SUBLEASE AMENDMENT TO FALLBROOK AIRPARK HANGAR SERVICES, INC. (Supv. Dist: 5) OVERVIEW: At commencement of its sublease on November 1, 1987 at Fallbrook Community Airpark, Fallbrook Airpark Hangar Services, Inc. occupied 3.2 acres. County consented to this sublease on June 16, 1988. In 1989, it entered an agreement with Fallbrook Community Airpark, Inc., at that time the master lessee, to increase its parcel size to 3.7 acres; however, that sublease was not amended in accordance with County procedures. Because County never consented to an amendment, the current sublease applies only to the original 3.2-acre parcel. The Board is requested to approve an amendment to the sublease with Fallbrook Airpark Hangar Services, Inc. Proposed amendment would increase leasehold premises by one-half acre, from 3.2 to 3.7 acres, the acreage currently occupied by the sublessee. It would also reduce the size of the adjacent parcel falling under a first right of refusal provision of the sublease by a corresponding one-half acre.
