LEGAL SERVICES CONCERNING THE METRO SEWER SYSTEM
WHEREAS, Chula Vista has retained the legal services of Dwight Worden, Esq. to
assist in dealing with the City of San Diego and the other Metro Participating Agencies in
developing a system and Agreement to operate and pay for the Metro Sewer System; and
WHEREAS, there are still significant issues to be resolved and regional agreements to

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED the City Council of the City of Chula Vista does
hereby waive the bidding requirements of Section 2.576.070 and waive the consultant
selection process for the following reasons:
1. Dwight Worden, Esq. has been involved with the Metro Sewer Issue since
1990 and his knowledge and background are very valuable.
2. Mr. Worden is the attorney of record for the City of Chula Vista in the case of
USA v. City of San Diego, of which we are an amicus. That case is still active
and Mr. Worden has followed the case very closely.
3. To advertise and hire different a consultant would not be as beneficial to the
City since considerable time would have to be expended in bringing the new
Consultant up to speed on the many years of negotiations and dealings with the
City of San Diego.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Council does hereby approve an Agreement
with Dwight Worden, Esq. for Legal Services concerning the City of Chula Vista and the Metro
