Item 15
Meeting Date 12/17/85
ITEM TITLE: Resolution /a,j/O Approving a library service contract
with San Diego County to continue to provide library
services in the newly annexed area of Chula Vista
SUBMITTED BY: Library Director
REVIEWED BY: City Manager
On November 5, 1985 the citizens of San Diego County, in an unincorporated area
designated as the Montgomery Fire District , voted to annex to the City of Chula
Vista. The San Diego County Library currently maintains two branch libraries,
the Castle Park Branch and the Woodlawn Branch, in the newly annexed area.
This contract will enable the City to provide library service to the annexed
area at the present service level with the San Diego County Library District as
the providing agency.
RECOMMENDATION: Adopt the resolution approving the contract and authorize the
Mayor to execute the same in behalf of the City.
BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: That Council adopt the resolution.
DISCUSSION:
The negotiated property tax exchange agreed by the City and the County Board of
Supervisors stated that "This reorganization shall not result in a change in
the Library District boundaries at this time. The City of Chula Vista shall
make an annual payment to the County Library District to cover the amount the
operating costs of the Castle Park and Woodlawn branche libraries that exceeds
the amount of property tax estimated to accrue to the County Library District
from within the territory of this 'Montgomery Reorganization'."
The Library District will generate approximately $63, 000 from the Master
Property Tax in FY 1985-86. The difference between the operating budget of
$114,719 and the tax revenue of $63,000 is $51,719 for fiscal year 1985-86.
The amount for one half the fiscal year (January 1, 1985 to June 30, 1985) is
$25,859.
