Home My WebLink About11/18/2003, A1 - APPOINTMENT ITEM: DESIGNATION OF COUNCIL REPRESENTATIVES TO UC-CSU HOST CITIES COALITION council °�(W63 o3 j acienaa uEpoizt CITY OF SAN LUIS OBISPO FROM: Ken Hampian, CA SUBJECT: APPOINTMENT ITEM: DESIGNATION OF COUNCIL REPRESENTATIVES TO "UC-CSU" HOST CITIES COALITION CAO RECOMMENDATION Designate two City Council members to represent the City at future meetings of the UC-CSU Coalition (and an alternate, if so desired). DISCUSSION As Council will recall, during the League of Cities Conference in September, a noontime session was held for cities that host UC or CSU campuses to discuss issues of common interest. Mayor Romero and Council Member Ewan attended the session, along with the .CAO. At the conclusion of the discussion, those attending agreed that continued meetings of this coalition would be beneficial. The organizer of the session, the City of Berkeley, agreed to follow-up with added information and a proposal for a follow-up meeting. Attached is the follow-up information and meeting proposal (tentatively set for January 29, 2004). At this point, if the Council is interested in continuing City participation with this group (which I recommend, given the areas of common interest), it is necessary for the Council to formally designate two representatives. In addition, the Council could designate an alternate, if one or more of the primary representatives are unavailable to attend a meeting. FISCAL IMPACT Participation in the Coalition will occasionally involve a modest amount of travel. However, meetings are not expected to be frequent and funds are available within the Council budget to support the cost. In fact, Council travel funds are typically remaining at the end of each year, since Council travel is historically very modest.

COMMON ISSUES • Land Use • Transportation • Housing • Public Safety (including party patrols) • Utilities • City Services • Long Range Development Plans • Public recreation • Economic Development • Taxation (sales tax, etc.) • Public Health • County issues for campuses that reside in county jurisdictions 2. WHAT BROUGHT YOU HERE? WHAT DO YOU HOPE TO GET OUT OF THESE TYPES OF DISCUSSIONS • How can a city deal with development that is on-campus—i.e sports facilitites, recreation centers, hotels, conference centers—how can one tax, assess or leverage funding from these endeavors • What defines "education'. • Identify models for how cities work with campuses—how to develop long term relationships that work • How to address the impacts on housing due to increasing enrollment (i.e. UC Davis is developing a neighborhood on campus property—which may become annexed to the City of Davis at some point) • How cities can also recognize what positive partnerships between the city and the campus already exist in their community(i.e. in one community the university took over staffing a of county library that was about to close). • Using the strength of bringing together mayors of cities with UC campuses together(and CSU) to meet with campus officials. l • Cities feel isolated—would like an opportunity to link with other cities and link with CSU/UC leaders on higher level. • Share best practices • Transportation—innovated ways to move people • Inventory agreements and partnerships across the state • Code of ethics in how to approach campuses • Develop a guide book with protocols on how a city might approach issues with campuses • Look at practices in other states (i.e. Boulder Colorado) • Relationship building between cities and campuses: liaisons, quarterly meetings between high level staff, lunch between electeds, CMs and campus leadership (chancellors, vice chancellors,etc.) • Legislation/resolutions at the state level 3. FUTURE STEPS 1. Establish committee of mayors and city managers of UC/CSU Host Cities: a. Collect and disseminate "smardbest" practices b. Assess legislative process for any opportunities (legislation,resolutions, select committee hearings, etc.) c. Assess possibilities for any statutory change 2. UC/CSU Host Cities Committee to meet quarterly a. Develop proposals for moving forward b. Develop budget for funding needs (facilitation, consultant, etc.) and request contribution from each city. 3. Berkeley will staff the next meeting 4. Consider meeting with UC/CSU leadership at an appropriate time (once this group has "its act together").
