                                                              GETTING TO KNOW YOUR AGENDA
Agenda Sections:
CONSENT CALENDAR items are routine items that are not expected to prompt discussion. All items are considered for approval at the same time with one vote.  Councilmembers and staff may request items be removed and members of the public may submit a speaker slip if they wish to comment on an item. Items removed from the Consent Calendar are discussed after the vote on the remaining Consent Calendar items.

PUBLIC COMMENT provides the public with an opportunity to address the Council on any matter not listed on the agenda that is within the jurisdiction of the Council. In compliance with the Brown Act, the Council cannot take action on matters not listed on the agenda.

PUBLIC HEARINGS are held on matters specifically required by law. The Mayor opens the public hearing and asks for presentations from staff and from the proponent or applicant involved (if applicable) in the matter under discussion. Following questions from the Councilmembers, the Mayor opens the public hearing and asks for public comments. The hearing is closed, and the City Council may discuss and take action.

ACTION ITEMS are items that are expected to cause discussion and/or action by the Council but do not legally require a Public Hearing. Staff may make a presentation and Councilmembers may ask questions of staff and the involved parties before the Mayor invites the public to provide input.

CLOSED SESSION may only be attended by members of the Council, support staff, and/or legal counsel. The most common purpose of a Closed Session is to avoid revealing confidential information that may prejudice the legal or negotiating position of the City or compromise the privacy interests of employees. Closed sessions may be held only as specifically authorized by law.

Council Actions:
RESOLUTIONS are formal expressions of opinion or intention of the Council and are usually effective immediately.

ORDINANCES are laws adopted by the Council. Ordinances usually amend, repeal or supplement the Municipal Code; provide zoning specifications; or appropriate money for specific purposes. Most ordinances require two hearings: an introductory hearing, generally followed by a second hearing at the next regular meeting. Most ordinances go into effect 30 days after the final approval.

PROCLAMATIONS are issued by the City to honor significant achievements by community members, highlight an event, promote awareness of community issues, and recognize City employees.

Chula Vista Honorable Mayor And City Council, Agenda 9.2 Proposal Harborside Park Closure https://pub-chulavista.escribemeetings.com/Meeting.aspx?Id=aa9ae899-f01c-4b4e-b676-6fc8b3cd6456&Agenda=Agenda&lang=English PLEASE DO NOT CLOSE THE PARK - ENFORCE THE LAW YOU CANNOT TAKE PUBLIC LAND AND MAKE IT YOUR OWN PROPERTY TO LIVE ON https://kusi.com/city-deems-harborside-park-a-health-crisis-and-public-safety-issue-due-to-homeless/ The SD County HHSA next to the park the cause of homeless LIVING IN THE PARK. The city, county and state must start adressing the real issue - No it is not mental abuse, but a drug problem. No enforcement against using drugs and on public property just creates more homeless looking for free services tax fundered that just exasperates the drug addiction leading to more homeless. Where is the encouragement to work to have a sense oft worh by being self sufficent? Affordable Housing is useless if no enforcement of rules! No you cannot do drugs and you must get a job to live there just like the rest of society. Our grand children will be paying others rent of affordable housing forever! Oh and a question of water use restriction on our parks. WHY DOES HARBORSIDE HAVE BROWN GRASS YET CITY HALL HAS WATERED LUSH GREEN GRASS?

Nicole Campbell

I grew up down the street from Harborside and this park was the closest recreational area for me. However, I never felt comfortable utilizing the park as a child because I felt unsafe, even nearly twenty years ago. It has gotten so much worse over the years, and it's sad that children in this congested, housing-dense area have very little safe, open space. The same is pretty much true of Lauderbach park, which is the next closest park in the area.

Location: 670 Oxford Street

Department: Administration

Environmental Notice: The Project qualifies for a Class 3 Categorical Exemption pursuant to Section 15303 (New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures) of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) State Guidelines.
