CHULA VISTA APPROVING A LEASE FOR REAL
PROPERTY WITH THE U.S. GOVERNMENT FOR THE
STORAGE OF AN EMERGENCY COMMAND AND
CONTROL VEHICLE AT FIRE STATION 8 AND

SUMMARY
"the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has requested to lease 1,567 square feet of apparatus
floor space at Fire Station 8 for the purpose of storing and having twenty-four hour
access to their Emergency Command and Control Vehicle.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This proposed activity has been reviewed for compliance with the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and it has been determined that the activity is not a
"Project" as defined under Section 15378 of the State CEQA Guidelines because it will
not result in a physical change in the environment; therefore, pursuant to Section
15060(c)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines, the activity is not subject to CEQA. Thus, no
environmental review is necessary.
RECOMMENDATION
Council adopt the resolution.
BOARDS/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
Not Applicable.
DISCUSSION
The Fire Department was approached by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers regarding the
storage of its Emergency Command and Control Vehicle (ECCV) at Fire Station 8
6-1
1]/20/2012, Item v
Page 2 of 2
located at 1180 Woods Drive. This opportunity was viewed as a win-win situation
because it assists the Federal Government by providing a safe, secure and 24-hour
accessible site, and it earns additional revenue for the City.
This lease for real property with the U.S. Government is effective November 15, 2012 for
an initial -one-year term. The Government will pay the City $1,300 per month for
approximately 1,576 rentable square feet at Fire Station 8. The lease may be renewed
annually in writing, upon mutual consent of both parties, for 10 one-year extensions. It
may be terminated by either party by giving at least 90-day notice.
With the unanticipated revenue earned, the Fire Deparhnent requests to appropriate
additional funds to its supplies and services budget. Lease revenue in the amount of
$9,750 is anticipated in the current fiscal year, and additional appropriations are
requested in wearing apparel to purchase firefighter turnouts and address anticipated
budget shortfalls in this account.
DECISION MAKER CONFLICT
Staff has reviewed the decision contemplated by this action and has determined that it is
not site specific and consequently the 500-foot rule found in California Code of
Regulations section 18704.2(a)(1) is not applicable to this decision.
CURRENT YEAR FISCAL IMPACT
Approval of this resolution will approve the lease for real property with the U.S.
Government and will result in the appropriation of $9,750 to the supplies and services
category of the Fire Department. The lease revenues will offset the $9,750 appropriation,
resulting in no net fiscal impact to the General Fund.
ONGOING FISCAL IMPACT
The lease may be renewed annually in writing, upon mutual consent of both parties.
Lease revenues in the amount of $15,600 will be included in the proposed fiscal year
2013/2014 budget, along with a $15,600 appropriation to the wearing apparel budget of
the Fire Department.
