>>> GOOD EVENING, IT IS FRIDAY, MAY 27th.

I AM IN FOR MAYA TRABULSI.

COVID-19 CASES ARE INCREASING AND SO IS SAN DIEGO'S PANDEMIC RISK LEVEL.

IT COMES AS WE HAVE THE HOLIDAY WEEKEND AND THE BUSY SUMMER SEASON APPROACHING.

KPBS HEALTH REPORTER MATT HOFFMAN HAS MORE ON OUR MOVE FROM THE CDC'S LOW RISK CATEGORY.

>> Reporter: CORONAVIRUS CASES ARE CLIMBING AGAIN, AS ANOTHER WAVE OF INFECTIONS APPEARS TO BE HERE.

IN THE LAST TWO WEEKS, CASES HAVE INCREASED BY 40%.

>> I LET MY GUARD DOWN.

AS A CONSEQUENCE, MY WHOLE FAMILY IS SICK.

>> Reporter: DAN WAS GETTING A COVER TEST AT CHULA VISTA CITY HALL FRIDAY AFTER HE SAYS HE CONTRACTED THE VIRUS WHILE IN FLORIDA.

>> I BEEN WEARING A MASK FOR THE LAST 2 1/2 YEARS, I WENT TO MY FIRST CONFERENCE WITH NO MASS AND I CAUGHT IT.

>> Reporter: IT IS NOT HIS FIRST TIME CATCHING COVID AND HE IS NOT SURPRISED BY THE RECENT INCREASE IN CASES.

>> EVERYONE'S GUARD IS COMING DOWN.

WE HAVE HAD 2 1/2 YEARS OF NOT SEEING EACH OTHER.

>> Reporter: HE WAS NOT THE ONLY ONE GETTING TESTED AFTER ATTENDING A LARGE EVENT.

>> MY PHONE TEXTED ME AND TOLD ME I WAS EXPOSED.

>> Reporter: GIOVANNA FELT SYMPTOMS AFTER GOING TO A MUSIC FESTIVAL IN LAS VEGAS.

SHE HAS HAD COVID BEFORE AND IS NOT WORRIED ABOUT TRAVELING.

>> I'M NOT SCARED TO GO OUT BECAUSE IT'S SOMETHING YOU CAN'T GET AWAY FROM.

EVENTUALLY I THINK EVERYONE WILL GET COVID AT LEAST ONCE.

>> Reporter: IN THE MEDIUM RISK CATEGORY, THE CDC SAYS IF YOU HAVE SYMPTOMS, GET TESTED.

THEY RECOMMEND EVERYONE STAY UP- TO-DATE ON THEIR VACCINATIONS AND IF YOU ARE AT A HIGH RISK, THEY RECOMMEND TALKING TO YOUR DOCTOR ABOUT TAKING ADDITIONAL PRECAUTIONS LIKE MASKING UP.

SAN DIEGO WAS PREVIOUSLY IN THE CDC'S LOW RISK CATEGORY AND JOIN OTHER SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA COUNTIES INCLUDING LOS ANGELES, ORANGE, AND IMPERIAL IN THE MEDIUM TO YOUR WORD NO CALIFORNIA COUNTY IS IN THE HIGH RISK CATEGORY, YET.

DETERMINATIONS ARE BASED ON HOSPITAL ADMISSIONS AND NEW CASES, BOTH OF WHICH ARE INCREASING.

>> I HOPE THE COMMUNITY CAN COME TOGETHER AND REACT ACCORDINGLY.

>> Reporter: CHULA VISTA FIREFIGHTERS ARE STAFFING THE CITY HALL COVID TESTING SITE.

THEY HAVE SEEN INCREASES IN REQUEST AND SAY THE FREE OPTION IS NOT GOING ANYWHERE.

>> WE ARE LOOKING TO SERVE THE COMMUNITY AS BEST WE CAN.

THAT IS THE REASON WE HAVE STAYED OPEN, TO KEEP CONSISTENCY.

>> Reporter: MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND IS KICKING OFF AN EXPECTED BUSY START TO SAN DIEGO SUMMER TOURIST SEASON.

HEALTH OFFICIALS IN THE PANDEMIC IS NOT OVER AND PEOPLE SHOULD TRY TO AVOID LARGE CROWDS AND TAKE PARTIES OUTDOORS IF POSSIBLE.

KPBS NEWS.

>>> TEXAS AUTHORITIES ADMITTED FOR THE FIRST TIME TODAY THAT A TEAM OF POLICE OFFICERS STOOD OUTSIDE CLASSROOMS AT ROBB ELEMENTARY SCHOOL FOR ALMOST 50 MINUTES WHILE THE SHOOTER THREATENED CHILDREN.

MANY OF WHOM ANXIOUSLY CALLED 911.

THAT ADMISSION COMES FOUR DAYS AFTER 19 KIDS AND TWO TEACHERS WERE KILLED IN THE MASSACRE.

SURVIVORS ARE COMING FORWARD, SHARING THEIR HARROWING EXPERIENCES INSIDE THE SCHOOL.

CHRIS WENT EXPLAINS.

>> Reporter: WE LEARNED THE GUN MAN STARTED SHOOTING AT THE CLASSROOM WINDOWS AS HE APPROACHED THE SCHOOL.

THIS, AS MORE QUESTIONS EMERGE OVER WHY IT TOOK SO LONG FOR LAW ENFORCEMENT TO ENGAGE.

OUTSIDE OF ROBB ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, THE SOUNDS OF CHILDREN'S FOOTSTEPS AND LAUGHTER IS REPLACED BY SILENCE.

THESE CROSSES REPRESENT THE 19 STUDENTS AND TWO'S TEACHERS KILLED TUESDAY.

SURVIVORS ARE SHARING THEIR HARROWING STORIES.

>> THE SHOOTER SHOT THROUGH THE WINDOW, HURTING MY FRIEND AND MY TEACHER.

>> WE WERE RUNNING OUT OF THE DOORS.

TWO POLICE CARS WERE COVERING OUR DOORS.

THEY WERE JUST, WE JUST RAN.

I WAS PRAYING.

THINKING, WHY IS THIS HAPPENING?

>> Reporter: THIS IS MY IS SURREAL, WHO SHARED HER STORY OFF-CAMERA.

SHE SAYS THE GUNMEN CAME INTO HER CLASSROOM, SAID GOOD NIGHT, AND STARTED SHOOTING.

WHEN HE WALKED AWAY, SHE SMEARED BLOOD ON HERSELF AND PLAY DEAD TO SURVIVE.

MANY QUESTIONS REMAIN ABOUT WHY AUTHORITIES DIDN'T IMMEDIATELY GO INTO THE SCHOOL WHEN THE GUNMEN BARRICADED HIMSELF FOR NEARLY AN HOUR.

>> THERE IS NO EXCUSE FOR THAT.

AGAIN, I'M JUST TELLING YOU, FROM WHAT WE KNOW, WE BELIEVE THERE SHOULD HAVE BEEN ENTRY AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

>> Reporter: THE POLICE SAY THE GUN MENUS 100 ROUNDS OF AMMUNITION.

THE RANGERS ARE CURRENTLY IN CHARGE OF THE INVESTIGATION WITH SUPPORT FROM AT LEAST 200 AGENTS FROM THE FBI.

REPORTING IN UVALDE, TEXAS, BACK TO YOU.

>>> AS MANY DEBATE THE TACTICS USED BY LAW ENFORCEMENT IN UVALDE, OFFICIALS FOCUS ON HOW TO KEEP KIDS SAFE.

KITTY ALVARADO SPOKE WITH A TACTICS EXPERT TO FIND OUT WHAT COULD HAVE BEEN DONE DIFFERENTLY AND WHAT SHOULD BE DONE IN THE FUTURE.

>> Reporter: THE GUNMEN IS VISIBLE IN THIS VIDEO.

THIS WAS SHORTLY BEFORE HE ENTERED THE BUILDING AND MURDERED 19 CHILDREN AND TWO TEACHERS.

NO ONE STOPPED HIM.

HERE, DISTRAUGHT PARENTS ARE BEGGING POLICE TO GO IN AND HELP THEIR CHILDREN.

LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICIALS ADMIT THE SUPERVISOR MADE THE WRONG DECISION FOR OFFICERS TO WAIT AT LEAST AN HOUR TO ENTER.

HE ASSUMED THE GUNMEN POSED NO THREAT BECAUSE IT TRANSITIONED INTO A BARRICADE SITUATION.

THIS HAS TEACHERS, PARENTS, AND STUDENTS WERE THE SAME THING COULD HAPPEN HERE.

>> IT IS HARD TO KNOW FOR SURE WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN.

YOU DON'T KNOW IF WE ARE ACTUALLY TRUING TRULY SAFE.

>> Reporter: HERBERT TAFT, TRINI CAPTAIN, SAYS HE CANNOT COMMENT ON THE TACTICS OF OTHER DEPARTMENTS, BUT WAITING IS NOT PART OF THEIR TRAINING.

>> I CAN GUARANTEE WE ALL UNDERSTAND WHAT THE COST IS.

THIS IS WHAT WE SIGNED UP FOR.

THIS IS OUR JOB.

YOU CAN COUNT ON US.

>> Reporter: THIS LIEUTENANT, CHARGED WITH ALL DEPARTMENT TRAINING SAYS LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES ALL USE THE SAME TACTICS.

>> WHAT OUR DEPARTMENT TEACHES IS AN IMMEDIATE RESPONSE, IMMEDIATE ACTION AND RAPID DEPLOYMENT.

THAT MEANS WE DO NOT WAIT AND WE DO NOT TEACH OUR PEOPLE TO WAIT AROUND AND WAIT FOR S.W.A.T.

TEAMS.

THAT IS NOT HOW DEPUTIES ARE TRAINED AND THAT'S NOT HOW WE TRAIN AS A REGIONAL.

>> Reporter: THEY ARE PREPARED FOR LOCKED DOOR SCENARIOS WITH KNOWLEDGE OF LOCKBOXES AND EQUIPMENT IN THEIR CARS.

>> WE WILL KNOCKDOWN A KNOCK STORE LOCKED DOOR.

MOST OF US ARE PARENTS OURSELVES.

WE REACT LIKE THIS TEACHERS REACTS.

YOU HEARD THEM CRYING, THESE ARE OUR CHILDREN.

I WAS A SCHOOL RESOURCE OFFICER FOR MANY YEARS.

I WOULD DIE FOR THOSE KIDS.

I KNOW A LOT OF THE DEPUTIES WOULD PUT THEIR LIVES ON THE LINE FOR THOSE KIDS.

>> Reporter: DR. GLENN HOSS, A LAW-ENFORCEMENT VETERAN, SAYS THE COLUMBINE SHOOTING CHANGE TACTICS FOREVER.

>> OFFICERS HAVE TO STOP THAT SUSPECT BY WHATEVER MEANS THEY CAN.

IF THAT MEANS A SINGLE OFFICER GOING IN, A TREMENDOUS RISK TO THEIR OWN SAFETY, THAT IS WHAT THEY HAVE TO DO.

THAT WAS SOMETHING THAT WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN CONSIDERED PRE- COLUMBINE, THAT IS THE NORM NOWADAYS.

THAT IS WHY PEOPLE HAVE PROBABLY SEEN THIS PARTICULAR INCIDENT HAVE SO MANY QUESTIONS OF WHY, WHY WAS THERE A LAG, WHAT WAS GOING ON, WHAT WERE THE DECISIONS, WHY REALLY BEING MADE THAT WAY?

UNTIL THE INVESTIGATION IS OVER, WE WON'T KNOW.

>> Reporter: THEY SAY THAT INFORMATION IS CRITICAL TO KNOW BECAUSE IT WILL SAVE LIVES.

KITTY ALVARADO, KPBS NEWS.

>>> PROTESTERS ARE MAKING THEIR VOICES HEARD OUTSIDE THE NATIONAL RIFLE ASSOCIATION CONVENTION IN HOUSTON.

FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP AND OTHER LEE REPUBLICANS ARE SPEAKING DURING THE THREE-DAY GUN ADVOCACY EVENT.

TEXAS GOVERNOR GREG ABBOTT WAS SCHEDULED TO ATTEND, BUT INSTEAD ADDRESSED THE CROWD VIRTUALLY.

THE NRA SAID THAT THOSE ATTENDING THE GUN SHOW WOULD REFLECT ON THE UVALDE SCHOOL SHOOTING.

>>> IT HAS BEEN AN EVENTFUL WEEK FOR JOHN HAMLIN, CLAIRE TRAGESER SAYS HE LOST A BIG ENDORSEMENT AND STEP DOWN FROM HIS JOB IN THE CITY ATTORNEY OFFICE.

>> Reporter: THAT HAPPENED AFTER A VIDEO SURFACED ABOUT HIM MAKING COMMENTS ABOUT WHERE TRANS WOMEN SHOULD USE THE BATHROOM.

>> THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS PASSED A BILL REDEFINING WHAT A WOMAN IS.

IT INCLUDED MEN.

>> Reporter: HE STATED THAT THE SUPERVISORS HAVE AN AGENDA.

>> THEY WILL BE ASKING TO ENFORCE THAT.

>> Reporter: HAMMER LANG RETIRED.

IN A STATEMENT, HE SAID HE LEFT TO FOCUS ON HIS CAMPAIGN AND, QUOTE, I APOLOGIZE TO THOSE WHO TOOK MY COMMENTS TO IMPLY CRITICISM OF ANYONE BASED ON THEIR OR GENDER IDENTITY.

CLAIRE TRAGESER, KPBS NEWS.

>>> GETTING IN AND OUT OF SAN DIEGO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT IS ABOUT TO GET MORE DIFFICULT.

JOHN CARROLL SHOWS US THE CONSTRUCTION THAT WILL HOLD UP PARKING SHORTLY AFTER THE HOLIDAY WEEKEND.

>> Reporter: NO PAIN, NO GAIN.

THE PHRASE ASSOCIATED WITH WORKING OUT ALSO APPLIES TO WHAT IS UNDERWAY AT SAN DIEGO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT.

THE GAME?

A SPARKLING NEW TERMINAL ONE.

THE PAIN, TRYING TO PARK YOUR OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL YEARS.

>> IT WILL BE A NIGHTMARE.

>> Reporter: SABRINA LO PICCOLO IS STATING THE OBVIOUS .

THE TERMINAL ONE PARKING LOT HAS ALREADY SHRUNK BY ABOUT 300 SPACES.

THAT IS THE PART BEHIND THE FENCE COVERINGS AND SOON IT WILL GO AWAY ALTOGETHER.

>> JUNE 5th, WE HAVE TO CLOSE THE PARKING LOT, AND AS OF JUNE 15th, THE ENTIRE PARKING LOT WILL BE EMPTY AND TURN OVER AS A CONSTRUCTION SITE.

THIS SITE WILL BE THE NEW TERMINAL ONE PARKING STRUCTURE.

>> Reporter: ANY VEHICLES HERE AFTER JUNE 15th WILL BE TOWED, AND AFTER THAT THE TERMINAL TWO PARKING PLAZA, WITH 3000 SPACES WILL BE IT.

THE SKY RIDGE WILL BE TORN DOWN, TO BE REPLACED BY THIS CROSSWALK, BEING PUT TOGETHER NOW.

THE 55+ EURO TERMINAL ONE WILL BE AROUND FOR A WHILE.

AS YOU CAN SEE, THERE ARE CREWS WORKING IN THE AREA AND THEY WILL CALL TEAR DOWN THE CURRENT ADMINISTRATION BUILDING, THE OLD PSA HEADQUARTERS.

A NEW ADMINISTRATION BUILDING IS BEING BUILT.

PART OF THE TERMINAL WILL GO WHERE THE CURRENT ADMIN BUILDING IS.

>> ONCE THE NEW TERMINAL IS OPEN, THE FIRST 19 GATE WILL MOVE THE AIRLINES OVER.

WE WILL GET THEM SETTLED.

THEN, THE DEMOLITION OF THE CURRENT TERMINAL ONE WILL BEGIN.

>> Reporter: WHILE THE CONSTRUCTION GOES ON, CROWDS GROW INSIDE AS THE HOLIDAY WEEKEND IS UPON US.

SABRINA LO PICCOLO HAS TRAVEL TIPS.

FIRST, PLAN AHEAD, AS IN PLAINTIFF YOU WANT TO PARK HERE.

>> WE RECOMMEND RESERVATIONS, WHICH CAN BE DONE ON OUR WEBSITE.

>> Reporter: MTS CAN GET YOU HERE BY BUS OR TROLLEY.

THERE IS A SHUTTLE SERVICE, BUT NO MATTER HOW YOU PLAN TO GET HERE, REMEMBER, CONSTRUCTION.

>> IT WILL TAKE EXTRA TIME TO NOT ONLY GET TO THE AIRPORT BUT GET THROUGH SECURITY AND GET TO THE GATE.

WHETHER YOU ARE FLYING OUT OF TERMINAL ONE OR TERMINAL TWO, MAKE SURE YOU ARE ALLOWING ENOUGH TIME, ABOUT TWO HOURS BEFORE YOUR FLIGHT.

>> Reporter: IT MIGHT HELP TO THINK THAT EVEN WITH ALL THIS PAIN, THERE IS GAIN AT THE END.

A BEAUTIFUL NEW STATE-OF-THE- ART TERMINAL, ANOTHER STEP IN SAN DIEGO'S JOURNEY TO BEING A TRULY WORLD-CLASS CITY.

JOHN CARROLL, KPBS, EVENING EDITION.

>>> IF YOU ARE HITTING THE ROAD FOR THE HOLIDAY WEEKEND, GET READY TO PAY UP.

PRICES ARE AT $6.02 ON AVERAGE FOR REGULAR UNLEADED.

THAT IS $.29 MORE THAN LAST MONTH.

ANALYSTS SAY DON'T EXPECT PRICES TO COME DOWN, ESPECIALLY THROUGH SUMMER.

>>> SAN DIEGO OFFICIALS ARE BRACING FOR CROWDS AT BEACHES.

MAYOR TODD GLORIA WAS WITH FIRST RESPONDERS, REMINDING EVERYONE TO BE SAFE.

>> MAKE GOOD DECISIONS, GET THAT PARKING SPACE, BE KIND TO ONE ANOTHER.

MAKE SURE WE SHOW OFF THE BEST OF OUR CITY.

WE WILL HAVE A LOT OF VISITORS AND THEY WILL LEAVE MONEY AND GO BACK TO WHERE THEY CAME FROM.

>> OFFICIALS UNVEILED A FIRE BOAT THAT CAN HELP IN WATER RESCUES.

SAN DIEGO LIFEGUARDS SAY THEY WILL BE OUT IN FORCE, ALONG WITH SAN DIEGO POLICE.

>>> THE CHULA VISTA POLICE DEPARTMENT HAS TOUTED ITS NEW REAL-TIME OPERATIONS CENTER AS THE CUTTING EDGE OF POLICING.

A CONTRACT WITH MOTOROLA SOLUTIONS TO PROVIDE SOFTWARE FOR THE CENTER CONTINUES TO ALARM PRIVACY ADVOCATES.

>> Reporter: THE CITY'S CONTRACT WAS A HOT TOPIC DURING A FEBRUARY MEETING OF THE CHULA VISTA CITY COUNCIL.

THE CONTRACT CALLS FOR MOTOROLA TO PROVIDE SOFTWARE FOR THE POLICE DEPARTMENTS NEW REAL- TIME OPERATIONS CENTER, WHICH IS THE HUB FOR DATA COMING FROM DRONES AND OTHER HIGH-TECH SURVEILLANCE TOOLS.

THIS SPOTLIGHT WAS ON THE DEAL, FOLLOWING A KPBS STORY ON HOW THE CONTRACTS TERMS ESSENTIALLY HANDED OVER CITY RESIDENTS PRIVATE DATA TO MOTOROLA.

IN LATE 2020, COUNCILWOMAN JILL GALVEZ VOTED TO APPROVE THE CONTRACT WITHOUT COMMENT.

ONE YEAR LATER, SHE HAD QUESTIONS.

>> IT WOULD BE WONDERFUL TO HEAR A HIGH-LEVEL RESPONSE TO SOME OF THE ALLEGATIONS THAT WE HAVE BEEN READING ABOUT, FROM KPBS, AND HEARING ABOUT, IN TERMS OF CHULA VISTA IS CONTRACT WITH MOTOROLA AND SELLING DATA PRIVACY.

>> Reporter: GALVEZ SOUGHT ANSWERS FROM THEN CAPTAIN DON REDMOND.

HE SAID AT LEAST ONE OF THE CONTRACT TERMS WAS A MISTAKE.

>> IT WAS PART OF AN OLDER TEMPLATE CONTRACT THAT THEY GIVE US.

>> Reporter: KPBS LEARNED THAT AFTER THE CITY HEARD THE STORY, THE AMENDED THE CONTRACT TO REMOVE A PROVISION ALLOWING MOTOROLA TO LICENSE OR SELL CUSTOMER DATA THAT WAS STRIPPED OF NAMES AND OTHER IDENTIFYING FACTORS.

ALBERT FOX CON IS EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF THE NEW YORK CITY- BASED SURVEILLANCE TECHNOLOGY SECURITY PRODUCT.

HE WAS CRITICAL OF THE ORIGINAL CONTRACT, CALLING IT, ORWELLIAN.

HE SAYS IT IS NO BETTER NOW.

>> IF YOU HAD MADE THIS CHANGE IN A TYPICAL CONTRACT, I MIGHT HAVE THOUGHT IT WAS AN IMPROVEMENT.

THIS CONTRACT IS SO MUCH WORSE THAN WHAT WE TYPICALLY SEE.

>> Reporter: HE POINTS OUT THAT THE CONTRACT STILL IS ALLOWING THE COMPANY TO ANALYZE, PUBLISH, DEVELOP, AND IMPROVE COMMERCIAL PRODUCTS AND OFFER SUBSCRIPTION SERVICES TO CUSTOMER DATA GATHERED BY CHULA VISTA POLICE SURVEILLANCE.

>> THERE IS NOTHING THAT BLOCKS MOTOROLA FROM SELLING THIS DATA TO CUSTOMERS, WHO RESELL IT TO OTHER PEOPLE.

THEN THEY RESELL IT TO OTHER PEOPLE.

ONCE YOU ALLOW THE DATA TO BE USED IN THAT WAY, IT IS JUST AVAILABLE TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER.

>> Reporter: THAT INCLUDES LIVE SOCIAL MEDIA FEEDS, INFORMATION PICKED UP BY THE AGENCY'S AUTOMATED LICENSE PLATE READERS, AND VIDEO CAPTURED BY DRONES, SENT TO 911 CALLS.

MOTOROLA DID NOT RETURN KPBS EMAILS OR CALLS, BUT IN A FEBRUARY LETTER TO CHULA VISTA, THE COMPANY ASSURED THE CITY THAT IT DOES NOT, QUOTE, SHARE OR RESELL CUSTOMER DATA.

MOTOROLA CAN STILL TAKE CUSTOMER DATA AND CUSTOMIZE IT.

THAT IS WHAT PRIVACY EXPERTS SAY.

ONCE THAT HAPPENS, IT IS SOLUTION DATA AND THE CONTRACT GIVES MOTOROLA, ITS VENDORS, AND LICENSORS, EXCLUSIVE OWNERSHIP OF SOLUTION DATA.

THE CONTRACT DOES NOT BAR MOTOROLA FROM SELLING SOLUTION DATA.

>> IT'S PERFORMATIVE ART.

IT'S MEANT TO GIVE COMFORT TO PEOPLE NOT PAYING ATTENTION.

>> Reporter: BRIAN HOFER SAYS CHULA VISTA CITY COUNCIL'S APPROVAL OF THE ORIGINAL CONTRACT WAS BAD ENOUGH.

>> IF THIS HAD BEEN A FIRST INSTANCE, I WOULD GIVE THEM A PASS AND SAY IT WAS NEGLIGENCE.

WHEN IT HAPPENS A SECOND TIME, IT'S THIS OBVIOUS THAT IT'S A BAD CONTRACT, THERE IS SOME INTENT TO ALLOW THIS TO HAPPEN.

>> Reporter: CHULA VISTA COUNCILMAN STEVE PADILLA CONCEDES THAT HE AND HIS COLLEAGUES SHOULD NEVER HAVE APPROVED THE ORIGINAL CONTRACT BUT SAYS HE IS COMFORTABLE THAT THE AMENDMENT MADE EARLIER THIS YEAR PROTECTS CHULA VISTA AND'S PRIVACY.

>> NOBODY IS BEING SPIED ON, NO ONE'S DATA IS BEING COLLECTED OR SHARED OR SOLD.

>> Reporter: NEVERTHELESS, CHULA VISTA CITY ATTORNEY GLENN COOGAN SAYS THE CONTRACT IS UNDER REVIEW.

HE SAID SIGNIFICANT CITY CONTRACTS ARE ALWAYS REVIEWED BY MY LEGAL GROUP, BUT UNTIL RECENTLY THESE TYPES OF PROVISIONS HAVE NOT BEEN AN AREA OF FOCUS.

THEY SHOULD HAVE BEEN AND NOW VERY MUCH ARE.

>>> CHULA VISTA POLICE ARE SLATED TO GIVE MEMBERS OF CITY'S NEW TECHNOLOGY AND PRIVACY ADVISORY TASK FORCE A TOUR OF ITS SURVEILLANCE TOOLS NEXT WEEK.

>>> CRUISE NIGHTS ARE COMING TO AN END IN NATIONAL CITY FOR NOW.

KPBS REPORTER JACOB AIR EXPLAINS THE CHANGE.

>> WE ARE CANCELING ALL OF THE FUTURE CRUISES ON HIGHLAND AVENUE, SADLY.

>> Reporter: MAY 6 IS THE FIRST CRUISE NIGHT IN THE CITY IN NEARLY 30 YEARS AFTER A BAN WAS LIFTED FOR A SIX-MONTH TRIAL PERIOD.

NOW, ORGANIZERS ARE SAYING THAT THEY ARE BEING ASKED TO PAY MORE THAN WHAT WAS ORIGINALLY PLANNED.

>> IT WAS MADE CLEAR TO US, DURING THE MAY 23rd AD HOC MEETING THAT THE CITY WAS NOT GOING TO WORK WITH US, BY REMOVING ANY OF THE FEES FROM THE POLICE OR PUBLIC WORKS.

THESE FEES WOULD CAUSE US ANYWHERE FROM $15-$18,000 PER CRUISE.

>> Reporter: THIS COALITION MEMBER SAYS SHE FEELS LIKE THEY WERE SET UP FOR FAILURE.

>> IT IS DISAPPOINTING.

IT'S NOT ILLEGAL OR IMMORAL.

WE ARE IN OUR CARS AND IT IS FOR THREE HOURS.

IT'S NOT AN ALL-DAY EVENT, THAT RUNS INTO THE NIGHT.

IT'S THREE HOURS AND WE CRUISE AND THAT IS IT.

>> Reporter: THE POLICE DEPARTMENT SAID IN AN ASSESSMENT THAT THE MAY 6 EVENT LASTED MORE THAN THREE HOURS AND MORE CARS CAME THAN EXPECTED.

NATIONAL CITY MAYOR SAID IN A WRITTEN STATEMENT TO KPBS THE PUBLIC SAFETY MUST BE A PRIORITY.

SHE WROTE, THIS IS NOT A CITY OF NATIONAL CITY VERSUS CRUISING ISSUE.

THIS ISSUE IS ABOUT AN EVENT IN TEMPORARY USE PERMIT THAT WAS RE-EVALUATED AS NEEDING TO ADDRESS THE SAFETY OF COMMUNITY , TRANSPORTATION IMPACTS, AND CONGESTION.

NATIONAL CITY COUNCILMEMBER JOSE RODRIGUEZ PUSHED BACK ON THE NOTION THAT CRUISING IS BAND.

>> WHAT HAPPENED LESS THAN A MONTH AGO WAS A HUGE SUCCESS.

NEIGHBORS CAME OUT AND SAID THEY ENJOYED IT.

BUSINESSES ENJOYED IT.

EVERYONE A PART OF THE CRUISE ENJOYED IT.

THERE WERE NO MAJOR ISSUES IN OUR CITY, ONLY CAUSE FOR CELEBRATION.

WE NEED TO DO MORE OF THAT.

>> Reporter: UNITED LOW RIDER COALITION MEMBERS SAY THEY WILL MEET WITH CITY LEADERS ON JUNE 21st TO DISCUSS FUTURE PLANS FOR CRUISES.

JACOB AIR, KPBS NEWS.

>>> WE WILL WATCH A TROUGH DIP ITS WAY INTO SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA AND THAT MEANS COOLER AND CLOUDIER, FOR THIS WEEKEND.

IT MEANS WE WILL SEE SOME VERY STRONG WINDS, MOUNTAIN RIDGE TOPS, AND INTO THE DESERT AREAS.

A WARMING PATTERN TO LOOK FORWARD TO AS WE HEAD INTO NEXT WEEK.

WE HAVE WIND ADVISORIES AT PLAY, TO THE EAST OF RIDGECREST , AGAIN.

THIS WILL LAST THROUGH MONDAY MORNING SO IT'S ALL WEEKEND LONG, AND RIGHT TO THE HOLIDAY.

WE WILL DEAL WITH GUSTY WIND ACROSS THE AREA INTO HIGHER ELEVATIONS AND ACROSS THE DESERT.

YOU WILL STILL BE DEALING WITH LOW CLOUD COVERAGE IN THE EVENING AND MORNING HOURS.

TEMPERATURES WILL FALL TO THE 60s, IN A PLACE LIKE SAN DIEGO.

CHULA VISTA IS 60, AS WELL.

INTERIOR AREAS HAVE LESS CLOUD COVERAGE AND FALL TO TEMPERATURES IN THE LOWER 50s.

OCEANSIDE IS ABOUT 58.

HERE IS THE FRONT THAT PROGRESSES MORE TO THE SOUTH AND EAST.

THAT IS WHERE YOU GET THE STRONG WINDS AND IT WILL BE QUITE WARM.

ON THE BACKSIDE, AND RIGHT ALONG THE COASTAL AREAS, IT WILL BE MUCH COOLER, ACTUALLY, FOR THE HOLIDAY WEEKEND.

YOU CAN SEE THE CLOUDS HANGING AROUND TO THE LUNCH HOUR FOR SATURDAY, AND SLOWLY WORKING THEIR WAY INTO THE MORE INTERIOR AREAS AND THEN WE WILL DEAL WITH THAT INTO SATURDAY NIGHT.

THAT IS WHAT WE HAVE FOR THE DAY.

THAT WILL KEEP THINGS COOLER IN PLACES LIKE OCEANSIDE, SAN DIEGO, AND CHULA VISTA, AND EVEN BORREGO SPRINGS.

THEY WILL COOL DOWN INTO THE 90s FROM THE TRIPLE DIGITS.

THE MOUNDS ARE SHOWERY AND COOL.

THAT IS WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT, ACROSS AREAS OF THE GREAT BASIN.

WE WILL SEE CLOUDS STICK AROUND AROUND THE COAST.

WE WILL BE BACK TO THE MID-70s BY NEXT WEEK, INLAND 80s BY NEXT TUESDAY.

FOR THE MOUNTAINS, BACK TO THE 70s BY NEXT WEDNESDAY AS WELL.

IT WILL TAKE SOME TIME AND HE WILL BE BACK TO TRIPLE DIGITS BY NEXT WEDNESDAY FOR DESERT AREAS.

FOR KPBS NEWS, I AM MICHELLE ROTELLA.

>> Reporter: >>> RECORD HIGH GAS PRICES ARE NOT SLOWING THE DEMAND FOR TRAVEL.

WE HEAR ABOUT THE MILLIONS OF PEOPLE ON THE MOVE OVER THE COMING DAYS IN A FRIDAY BUSINESS REPORT.

>> THERE WILL BE A LOT OF VISITORS TO SAN DIEGO.

OVER 3.1 MILLION SOUTHERN CALIFORNIANS WILL BE LEAVING THE AREA AND TRAVELING SOMEWHERE.

EXPECTED TO BE THE FOURTH LARGEST TRAVEL SEASON IN HISTORY, 2.6 MILLION.

THE VAST MAJORITY WILL BE DRIVING.

WE ARE DOING THIS IN CONTEXT, WITH EXTRAORDINARILY HIGH GAS PRICES.

THIS WEEK, THE AVERAGE GAS PRICE IN SAN DIEGO WAS $6.03.

THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT INFLATION MODERATED LAST MONTH, WHICH IS GREAT.

THE CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE, THE OTHER DAY, REPORTED THEY EXPECT INFLATION TO DROP UNDER 6% AT THE END OF THE YEAR.

THAT MEANS SUMMER TRAVELERS WHO TRAVEL IN THE MIDDLE OR LATTER PART OF THE SUMMER MIGHT SEE A MODERATING INFLUENCE ON THE COSTS THEY WILL PAY FOR ALL SORTS OF GOODS AND SERVICES.

I AM NOT SURE ABOUT GAS PRICES, BUT OVERALL, THAT IS GOOD NEWS FOR CONSUMERS IF INFLATION CONTINUES TO MODERATE LATER IN THE SUMMER.

>>> JUST IN TIME FOR SUMMER, THIS MOVIE ARRIVES IN THEATERS TODAY.

36 YEARS AFTER THE ORIGINAL FILM.

YOU MIGHT REMEMBER TOM CRUISE AND THE REST OF THE CAST WALKED THE RED CARPET ABOARD THE USS MIDWAY, IN HONOR OF THE MOVIES TIES TO THE NAVY IN SAN DIEGO.

FANS OF THE ORIGINAL "TOP GUN" MOVIE WILL RECOGNIZE A NEW PIE SHOP IN OCEANSIDE .

THE 500 FOOT COTTAGE, BUILT IN 1887, KNOWN AS TOP GUN HOUSE HAS BEEN A TOURIST ATTRACTION SINCE THE 80s.

IT HAS BEEN RESTORED AND OPENED , RIGHT NEXT TO MISSION PACIFIC HOTEL.

THERE IS A MOTORCYCLE, SIMILAR TO THE ONE TOM CRUISE RIDES IN THE MOVIE, OUT FRONT FOR PHOTO OPS.

>> YOU WILL HAVE, YOU KNOW, A CUTE COUPLE THAT WILL COME OVER AND THE GAL WILL JUMP ON THE BACK OF THE BIKE AND WRAP AROUND HER BOYFRIEND.

YOU WILL HAVE GRANDMAS THAT WILL GET ON THEIR.

THEY SAW THE MOVIE 30 YEARS AGO, AND THEY ARE RELIVING THAT MOMENT.

IT IS NEAT.

>> THE COTTAGE WAS MOVED ONE CITY BLOCK AND COST $1 MILLION IT WAS A COLLABORATION BETWEEN THE OCEANSIDE HISTORICAL SOCIETY AND LOCAL DESIGNERS.
