RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CHULA
VISTA APPROVING THE HIRING OF A TEMPORARY EXPERT
PROFESSIONAL AND APPROPRIATING FUNDS
WHEREAS, on March 31, 1998, by Resolution 18943, the City Council waived the
consultant selection process and authorized staff to negotiate contracts with various
engineering consultants for plan review services; and
WHEREAS, staff negotiation with several companies reached an impasse due either to
the Consultants' expensive wage rates or their insistence on revising our standard two party
agreement pertaining to the hold harmless clause; and
WHEREAS, staff recommends the hiring of Ms. Donna Snider to work as a Project
Manager on a short term basis under the "Temporary Expert Professional" designation; and
WHEREAS, Ms. Snider was a regular, full time employee of the City for nearly ten
years and when she left City employment in June 1996 for personal and family reasons, she
was a Civil Engineer (project manager) and had been performing excellently in that position;
and
WHEREAS, in November 1996 she returned to work for the City on a part time, as
needed basis, as a Temporary Expert Professional at the Civil Engineer level doing work on
subdivision plan and map checking; and
WHEREAS, Ms. Snider has agreed to return as a Temporary Expert Professional to
assist us during this period, but only at a rate of $55.00 per hour and staff would, therefore,
like to offer Ms. Snider that hourly rate to perform the exact type of work other firms would
have provided us at $99.00 per hour; and
WHEREAS, Ms. Snider is familiar with the City procedures and policies and does not
require any training to perform the assigned tasks; and
WHEREAS, Ms. Snider's work started on May 18 at the previous pay rate of $28.77
per hour for Temporary Expert Professional (E step-Civil Engineer), which rate can be approved
by the City Manager, however, Ms. Snider will work one week at the lower rate, but does not
wish to continue working for the City at the lower rate.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED the City Council of the City of Chula Vista does
hereby approve the hiring of Donna Snider as a Temporary Expert Professional at $55.00 per
hour effective May 26, 1998.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the amount of $20,OOO is hereby appropriated from
the unappropriated balance of the General Fund into Account No. 1401-5201 based on
receipts received from developer deposits.
