SAN DIEGO (CNS) - Just one bid was received for San Diego's next utility franchise agreement -- a minimum million offer from San Diego Gas & Electric to provide the city's gas and electric utilities for the next 20 years, it was revealed Thursday at a special meeting of the City Council.After months of public comment, debate and concern over the franchise agreements, the lone bid -- actually split into a million bid for natural gas and million for electric -- was a surprise for many who believed multiple energy companies had expressed interest.The utility franchise agreement bid was unsealed and presented as an informational item. The council must take action at its next meeting on Jan. 12; the existing franchise agreement with SDG&E expires Jan. 17. It was originally signed as a 50-year agreement starting in 1970.SDG&E, whose parent company is San Diego-based Sempra Energy, has been the sole electric and gas utility for San Diego since 1920.Mayor Todd Gloria and five of the nine city council members were sworn in this month, leaving them just four weeks to decide whether to approve SDG&E's minimum bid for 20 years, ask for an extension to allow new elected officials to get up to speed, cancel the process altogether and start over or pursue municipalization -- purchasing and putting the city's utilities under public control.Many of the callers who weighed in Thursday urged the council to ask Gloria and SDG&E for a one-year extension rather than forcing a bad decision during an economic crisis. That route would be accessible with two-thirds council approval and would continue the service under the previously signed franchise agreement, City Attorney Mara Elliott said.Councilman Chris Cate, one of the four incumbent members, expressed frustration at the delay."This is a process which has been undertaken for well over two years," he said. "We knew the deadlines years ago."He said an extension wouldn't be a good use of the city's time or resources, and shot down the municipalization idea as a costly endeavor already looked at by analysts, which the city could ill afford as it grapples with budgetary fallout from the COVID-19 pandemic."It would not be coming from a fiscally prudent or service prudent standpoint as a city," he said.However, the majority of the council seemed to tilt toward taking more time and asking for an extension."We cannot commit to a bad deal because we are in an economic downturn at the moment," said Councilman Sean Elo-Rivera. "This will affect us for years after the crisis has passed."Councilman Stephen Whitburn agreed."We must have the opportunity to do our due diligence," he said. "We need to make sure that out city's full menu of options have been thoroughly vetted."Councilwoman Marni von Wilpert said she didn't see, in her experience as an attorney, how the current council would be able to make an informed decision in such a short time on a contract which will be worth billions to whichever company or institution takes it over. Councilman Raul Campillo said he was "in no rush" to sign a deal which wasn't best for San Diego.Gloria, who called for the special council meeting this week, seemed to agree."I am committed to a deliberate and thorough review of this complex issue that will affect every San Diego household and business in the city for the years to come," Gloria said on Tuesday. "The public deserves to know what bids have been submitted. We must ensure that we do not squander this once-in-a-generation opportunity to help meet the city's climate goals and protect ratepayers."The lone bid, for the minimum million that former Mayor Kevin Faulconer set when he opened the bidding period Sept. 23, came as somewhat of a surprise. Berkshire Hathaway and Indian Energy had both expressed interest previously but failed to submit bids.Callers, many of whom represented environmental and progressive organizations, urged the council and Gloria to make sure any agreement was in compliance with the city's Climate Action Plan and included a Climate Equity Fund, two-year audits, a right-to-purchase clause if the franchise holder failed to meet standards, and an evaluation of public power.Councilwoman Monica Montgomery Steppe said she had major issues with the bid standards as they stood, but would not approve a plan which did not offer protections for union workers. 4402

SAN DIEGO (CNS) - In a 3-1 vote, the San Diego City Council Environment Committee approved a resolution declaring a climate emergency in the city of San Diego Thursday.The resolution has no council action attached, but voting for it is the first step toward getting more meaningful ordinances in front of the full city council. San Francisco, San Jose and Sacramento have all declared climate emergencies. Councilmember Jennifer Campbell, who chairs the environment committee, said the resolution was a necessary process."By passing this resolution today, we'll be joining more than 1,300 other cities in 25 countries in declaring a climate emergency," she said. "Climate change in San Diego is not a what-if, it's what's now."RELATED: San Diego Mayor Faulconer addresses homeless, housing issues in final State of the CityCampbell said that in the last 100 years, San Diego had witnessed nine inches of sea level rise."It's well past the time to sound the alarm," she said.Councilmember Barbara Bry said that when the council passed the Climate Action Plan in 2015 (a comprehensive plan to reduce emissions and take other climate change steps citywide by 2035), it was setting an example. She hoped by passing the resolution, other cities around the country would follow in San Diego's footsteps.RELATED: Lawmakers consider overhaul to California's bottle and can recycling programCouncilmember Scott Sherman, the lone dissenting vote, didn't get into the politics of the resolution, instead voting no on procedural grounds."I have to ask questions, and one of the questions I always ask is what happens after this is passed?" He said.Jordan Beane, Campbell's communications director and the author of the resolution, said that the committee and city staff would take time to "add teeth" to the resolution before bringing any ordinance before the full council.Sherman said, as a rule, he didn't vote for resolutions as they do not enact change. He also said that he would be "looking forward to" staff adding more substantial items before taking a meaningful vote. 2073

SAN DIEGO (CNS) - A new indictment unsealed Thursday against the owner/operators of San Diego-based pornographic website GirlsDoPorn.com alleges that co-owner Michael James Pratt -- who remains on the lam on federal sex trafficking charges -- also produced pornographic content involving a 16-year- old girl. Pratt was charged in a complaint last month along with three others with sex trafficking by force, fraud and coercion for allegedly filming victims under the guise of distributing the videos only to private clients, then disseminating the videos online without the victims' knowledge or consent. The new indictment adds two additional defendants and charges of production of child pornography and sex trafficking of a minor against Pratt alone, with the incidents allegedly occurring in September 2012. RELATED: San Diego porn case: Civil trial against GirlsDoPorn.com website operators beginsThe indictment also names website co-owner Matthew Isaac Wolfe; porn actor Ruben Andre Garcia; administrative assistant Valorie Moser; Amberlyn Dee Nored, allegedly one of the reference women accused of lying to victims about the nature of the work; and a sixth defendant whose name is redacted. According to the U.S. Attorney's Office, numerous young women who initially responded to ads for modeling jobs were allegedly deceived by the defendants to appear in adult films. Once the victims learned the work involved pornography, the defendants allegedly told them the videos would be distributed to private clients -- usually living overseas -- and not disseminated on the internet. To help convince the women to participate, reference women like Nored were allegedly hired to lie to the women and claim they had also filmed pornographic videos for the defendants, which were never posted on the internet. RELATED: San Diego porn site owners, employees charged with sex traffickingProsecutors allege the women were ``pressured into signing documents without reviewing them and then threatened with legal action or outing if they failed to perform.'' Others were not allowed to leave the shoots -- which were conducted at various San Diego hotels -- until the videos were completed, which sometimes involved sex acts the victims initially declined to perform, prosecutors allege. The defendants are also currently involved in a San Diego civil trial involving a lawsuit filed by 22 women who appeared in videos on the site. The allegations in that trial -- which began in mid-August -- mirror the new federal charges. In that case, the victims are seeking more than million in damages and ownership rights to the videos they appeared in.
