ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA AMENDING CHULA VISTA MUNICIPAL CODE
SECTION 8.22.030 TO CLARIFY THAT SMOKING IS PROHIBITED IN ALL CITY PARKS (SECOND
READING AND ADOPTION)
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Council adopt the ordinance.
SUMMARY
Staff is recommending that City Council adopt an ordinance to clean up contradictory language
contained in Chula Vista Municipal Code section 8.22.030 and clarify that smoking is prohibited in all
City parks.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Environmental Notice
The activity is not a “Project” as defined under Section 15378 of the California Environmental Quality
Act State Guidelines; therefore, pursuant to State Guidelines Section 15060(c)(3) no environmental
review is required.
Environmental Determination
The proposed activity has been reviewed for compliance with the California Environmental Quality
Act (CEQA) and has determined that the activity is not a “Project” as defined under Section 15378 of
the State CEQA Guidelines because the activity consists of administrative actions that will not result
in a physical change to the environment; therefore, pursuant to Section 15060(c)(3) of the State
CEQA Guidelines, the activity is not subject to CEQA.
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
Not Applicable
DISCUSSION
Chula Vista Municipal Code Chapter 8.22 regulates smoking in public places and places of
employment. Section 8.22.030 contains multiple subsections. Subsections (D) through (G) regulate
smoking in City parks. These subsections were added and amended on several occasions
throughout 2006 and 2007. Ordinance 3043 was adopted in 2006; it added 8.22.030(D), which
prohibits smoking in Friendship Park. Ordinance 3044 added 8.22.030(E), which prohibits smoking
in Independence Park and Rancho Del Ray Park. Ordinance 3045 was also enacted in 2006; it
added a section (F) stating “No person shall smoke in any portion of any other City park not
specifically designated in this section.”
In 2007, section 8.22.030 was again amended through Ordinance 3058. Ordinance 3058 made
several changes to chapter 8.22, including prohibiting smoking within 50 feet of an entrance to an
City of Chula Vista Printed on 8/10/2017Page 1 of 2
powered by Legistar™2017-08-15 Agenda Packet Page 15
File#:17-0355, Item#: 2.
several changes to chapter 8.22, including prohibiting smoking within 50 feet of an entrance to an
eating establishment and renumbering section 8.22.030 to accommodate additional prohibitions and
clean up existing language. Unfortunately, the amended version of 8.22.030 itself contains conflicting
provisions. While section 8.22.030 (D) through (F) now prohibit smoking in Friendship Park,
Independence Park, Rancho del Rey Park, Memorial Park, and Discovery Park, subsection (G) then
reads “No person shall smoke in any portion of all City parks except Friendship Park, Independence
Park, Rancho del Rey Park, Memorial Park, and Discovery Park”. As a result, Section 8.22.030 (G)
conflicts with and appears to override subsections (D) through (F).
Staff now recommend that Chula Vista Municipal Code section 8.22.030 be amended to remove the
contradictory language currently contained in 8.22.030 subsections (D) through (G), and to replace
those provisions with a single subsection clarifying that smoking is prohibited in all City parks.
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 Title 2, section
18702.2(a)(11), is not applicable to this decision for purposes of determining a disqualifying real
property-related financial conflict of interest under the Political Reform Act (Cal. Gov't Code § 87100,
et seq.).
Staff is not independently aware, and has not been informed by any City Councilmember, of any
other fact that may constitute a basis for a decision maker conflict of interest in this matter.
LINK TO STRATEGIC GOALS
The City’s Strategic Plan has five major goals: Operational Excellence, Economic Vitality, Healthy
Community, Strong and Secure Neighborhoods and a Connected Community. The amendment of
section 8.22.030 supports the Operational Excellence and Healthy Community goals as it removes
confusing and contradictory language in the Municipal Code and protects public health by affirming
that smoking is prohibited in all City parks.
CURRENT YEAR FISCAL IMPACT
The subject amendment to section 8.22.030 results in no current year fiscal impact to the City.
ONGOING FISCAL IMPACT
The subject amendment to section 8.22.030 results in no ongoing fiscal impact to the City.

City parks;

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Council place the ordinance on first reading and adopt the resolution.
SUMMARY
The City regularly receives requests for fee waivers. Per the Chula Vista Municipal Code and the
City’s Master Fee Schedule, the City Manager’s authority to waive fees is limited to the greater of
$2,500 or 25% of the fee imposed per the Schedule. Larger fee waivers require Council action. In
order to increase efficiency and timeliness in responding to minor fee waiver requests, an increase in
the City Manager’s fee waiver authority from $2,500 to $7,500 is recommended. Additional guidance
regarding fee waivers is provided in various City Council Policies. Repeal of these policies and
consolidation of all fee waiver authority and guidance in the Master Fee Schedule is also
recommended.

DISCUSSION
The Master Fee Schedule (“Schedule”) is a centralized listing of fees charged by the City for
services, administrative acts, and other legally required fees. The Schedule and Chapter 3.45 of the
Chula Vista Municipal Code both include provisions for fee reductions, waivers, deferrals, or a
combination thereof (generally “waivers”), and identify a Waiving Authority based upon the amount of
waiver requested. For waivers less than or equal to the greater of $2,500 or 25% of the fee imposed,
Waiving Authority is vested in the City Manager, or their designee. For fee waivers in excess of this
threshold, City Council approval is required. Waivers by both the City Manager and the City Council
require a public hearing (unpublished, but directly noticed to interested parties).
The dollar limit on the City Manager’s Waiver Authority was established via Ordinance 2506 in 1992,
and has remained unchanged since that time. Preparing a fee waiver request for Council
consideration requires significant staff expense and approximately three weeks to process.
Increasing the City Manager’s waiver authority from $2,500 to $7,500 will reduce the number of fee
waivers requiring Council action. Delegating this additional authority to the City Manager will reduce
General Fund costs and improve the City’s ability to respond to minor fee waiver requests in a timely
manner. Further efficiencies are gained by removing the public hearing requirement. Notice to
interested parties will continue to be provided.
Controls to ensure transparency and fairness are also proposed. A maximum annual City Manager
waiver amount per organization of $7,500 is recommended, with each school site considered an
organization for purposes of the cap. Organizations requesting annual waivers in excess of $7,500
would require Council approval. Transparency and accountability will be achieved through an annual
accounting to the City Council of the fees waived by the City Manager, to be provided in conjunction
with the regular fourth quarter financial report. Waiver decisions by the City Manager will be
appealable to the City Council. Decisions by the City Council will be considered final.
Fee Waiver Authority & Guidance Consolidation
The City has adopted a number of documents addressing the issue of fee waivers, including the
previously described language in the Schedule and Municipal Code. Additional guidance can be
found in the City Council’s Policy Manual (Policies 200-01, 267-05, and 861-04, see Attachments 1
through 3). Establishing fee waiver authority in multiple documents may lead to confusion and
inconsistency. In order to reduce future confusion and errors, consolidating all fee waiver authority
and guidance to the Master Fee Schedule (Attachment 4) and repealing the above referenced City
Council Policies is recommended.
Master Fee Schedule Administrative Update Authority
Additional edits to explicitly authorize staff to make minor administrative updates to Chapter 1 of the
Master Fee Schedule are also recommended. For ease of reference, Chapter 1 provides data and
rates that are not subject to approval of the City Council, but that may impact fee payers. For
purposes of determining eligibility for low income fee programs, the Master Fee Schedule details the
80% level of median family income for the San Diego Metropolitan Statistical Area, as determined by
the federal Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Allowing staff to administratively
update the income rates listed will ensure current information is provided to the public. Similarly, the
City Council does not take action to approve the City’s fully burdened hourly rates. Allowing staff to
administratively update the Master Fee Schedule to reflect current rates supports transparency in the

City’s full cost recovery billing.
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 Title 2, section
18702.2(a)(11), is not applicable to this decision for purposes of determining a disqualifying real
property-related financial conflict of interest under the Political Reform Act (Cal. Gov't Code § 87100,
et seq.).
Staff is not independently aware, and has not been informed by any City Council member, of any
other fact that may constitute a basis for a decision maker conflict of interest in this matter.
LINK TO STRATEGIC GOALS
The City’s Strategic Plan has five major goals: Operational Excellence, Economic Vitality, Healthy
Community, Strong and Secure Neighborhoods and a Connected Community. Standardizing and
consolidating fee waiver authority and increasing the authority delegated to the City Manager
supports the Operational Excellence goal by increasing efficiency. It also supports the Connected
Community goal by reducing barriers to community organizations seeking fee waivers.
CURRENT YEAR FISCAL IMPACT
No appropriations are recommended in conjunction with this item. Increasing the City Manager’s fee
waiver authority streamlines the waiver process, increasing efficiency and reducing staff costs.
Actual impacts will vary based upon the number of fee waivers that would have required Council
action but that are now processed administratively.
ONGOING FISCAL IMPACT
Increasing the City Manager’s fee waiver authority streamlines the waiver process, increasing
efficiency and reducing staff costs. Actual impacts will vary based upon the number of fee waivers
that would have required Council action but that are now processed administratively. Annual reports
to the City Council of fee waivers approved will ensure a transparent process and provide an
opportunity for the City Council to provide additional guidance regarding administrative approval of
fee waivers in the future.

276 Fourth Avenue, Chula Vista, CA 91910 May August 20107
City of Chula Vista www.chulavistaca.gov 619.691.5250
GENERAL
Section 3.42.010 of the Chula Vista Municipal
Code states that the City Council shall adopt, by
resolution, a Master Fee Schedule, indicating
therein the fees for all services, administrative
acts and other legally required fees, which
resolution may be amended from time to time
and shall be effective upon first reading and
approval; provided, however, such resolutions
may specify therein their applicability, if any, to
applications currently in the process of review.
A copy of the Master Fee Schedule shall be
maintained in the office of the City Clerk and in
each department of the City.
Print copies of the Master Fee Schedule may be
purchased.
Fee per printed schedule .............................. $6.00

Bulletin 13-100.
FEE WAIVERS
The fees set forth in the Master Fee Schedule may
be waived or deferred, in whole or in part, by the
Waiving Authority, as defined herein below:
Waiving Authority, as the term is used herein,
shall mean the City Manager, or designee, if the
amount of such waiver is less than or equal to the
greater of (1) $7,500 or (2) 25% of the fee
imposed by the Master Fee Schedule. If the

established in the master fee schedule, the
Waiving Authority shall make at least one of the
following findingsfind that either:

significantly and disproportionately larger
than other fee payers given the rights of
enjoyment of, or benefits of, the facility
or program for which the fee is paid, or
(2) the applicant will suffer a peculiar
economic hardship or other injustice from
the payment of the fee which outweighs,
when balanced against, the need of the
City for revenue and the need for a
uniform method of recovering same from
those against whom it is imposed.

the amount of such waiver is less than or equal to
the greater of (1) $2,500 or (2) 25% of the fee
imposed by the Master Fee Schedule. If the
amount of the waiver is greater than the greater
of $2,500 or 25% off the original fee imposed by
the Master Fee Schedule, the Waiving Authority,

LOW INCOME HOUSEHOLDS
Eligibility for City programs or fee schedules
restricted to low income households shall be
based on the 80% level of median family income
for the San Diego Metropolitan Statistical Area as
determined annually by the federal Department
of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and
detailed below:
NO. IN
HOUSEHOLD
MAXIMUM ANNUAL
FAMILY INCOME
(Gross for Eligibility)
1 $46,25050,950
2 $52,90058,200
3 $59,50065,600
4 $66,10072,750
5 $71,40078,600
6 $76,70084,400
7 $81,95090,250
8 $8796,250050
An additional $1,000 annual income allowed for
each additional person in household in excess of
eight (8).
[2009 2017 HUD Median Income Data, effective
0304/1917/0917]
The maximum annual family income rates are not
adopted by the City Council and are provided in
the Master Fee Schedule for informational
purposes only. Rates listed in the Master Fee
Schedule may be updated administratively based
upon HUD action without Council approval.
COST RECOVERY
The Master Fee Schedule reports fees for services
that are provided to our citizens and visitors. The
cost of providing these services includes both
direct staff costs and various support and
overhead costs. Fees that do not recover the full
cost of providing services result in a subsidy which
shifts funds away from critical, high priority needs
such as public safety initiatives and infrastructure
maintenance.
In November 1982 the City Council adopted
Resolution 11063 adopting a policy of full cost
recovery, under which both the direct and
overhead costs associated with providing public
services are identified and, when possible,
recovered. To facilitate this process, City staff
annually develops a set of fully burdened hourly
rates (FBHR), providing a convenient method for
calculating the full costs of services. A discussion

May August
20107 MASTER FEE SCHEDULE FEE BULLETIN 1-100 Page 3 of 3
City of Chula Vista www.chulavistaca.gov 619.691.5250
of the costs included in the calculation of the
FBHR, as well as the current fiscal year rate for
each classification in the City is detailed in Fee
Bulletin 1-200.
The City’s fully burdened rates serve as a basis for
identifying the true cost of providing services,
calculating fixed fee levels, and understanding the
fiscal impacts of fee subsidies.
The City’s fully burdened rates are not subject to
annual Council adoption and are included in the
Master Fee Schedule for informational purposes
only. Rates may be updated administratively
without additional Council action. Please contact
the Finance Department to confirm current rates.
1. Full Cost Recovery Deposits
Significant variances in staff time required to
provide certain services make application of a
fixed fee schedule impracticable. In these
instances, the applicant is charged for services
provided on a reimbursement basis, using the
fully burdened hourly staff rates. These
reimbursement based fees are designated in the
Master Fee Schedule as “full cost recovery”.
Initial Deposit
For each such fee, an initial deposit is required.
The average initial deposit amount, or an initial
deposit schedule, is provided in the Master Fee
Schedule for each full cost recovery deposit based
fee. In all instances, the department shall
determine the appropriate deposit for each
application and shall attempt to limit that deposit
to a reasonable amount.
Additional Deposits
If, at any time, it appears that the deposit amount
will be insufficient to cover accumulated City
costs, the applicant shall deposit additional
amounts as required by the Department Head.
Consultant Services
If the City determines that consultants are
required to assist in the processing of any permit,
the City reserves the right to retain and pay such
consultants from fees collected from the
applicant.
Release of Deposit
Any funds remaining on deposit at the time of the
completion or withdrawal of the application shall
be returned to the depositor, after accounting for
expenses, including overhead, incurred to date.

waivers to a single applicant within a 12 month
period in excess of $7,500 shall mean the City
Council. For purposes of this provision, each
school site shall be considered a separate
applicant.
, in accordance with the following procedures:
Any person requesting a reduction, waiver or
deferral, or a combination thereof, of a fee herein

than other fee payers given the rights of
enjoyment of, or benefits of, the facility
or program for which the fee is paid, or
(2) the applicant will suffer a peculiar
economic hardship or other injustice from
the payment of the fee which outweighs,
when balanced against, the need of the
City for revenue and the need for a
uniform method of recovering same from
those against whom it is imposed.

An additional $1,000 annual income allowed for
each additional person in household in excess of
eight (8).
[2009 2017 HUD Median Income Data, effective
0304/1917/0917]
The maximum annual family income rates are not
adopted by the City Council and are provided in
the Master Fee Schedule for informational
purposes only. Rates listed in the Master Fee
Schedule may be updated administratively based
upon HUD action without Council approval.
COST RECOVERY
The Master Fee Schedule reports fees for services
that are provided to our citizens and visitors. The
cost of providing these services includes both
direct staff costs and various support and
overhead costs. Fees that do not recover the full
cost of providing services result in a subsidy which
shifts funds away from critical, high priority needs
such as public safety initiatives and infrastructure
maintenance.
In November 1982 the City Council adopted
Resolution 11063 adopting a policy of full cost
recovery, under which both the direct and
overhead costs associated with providing public
services are identified and, when possible,
recovered. To facilitate this process, City staff
annually develops a set of fully burdened hourly
rates (FBHR), providing a convenient method for
calculating the full costs of services. A discussion

May August
20107 MASTER FEE SCHEDULE FEE BULLETIN 1-100 Page 3 of 3
City of Chula Vista www.chulavistaca.gov 619.691.5250
of the costs included in the calculation of the
FBHR, as well as the current fiscal year rate for
each classification in the City is detailed in Fee
Bulletin 1-200.
The City’s fully burdened rates serve as a basis for
identifying the true cost of providing services,
calculating fixed fee levels, and understanding the
fiscal impacts of fee subsidies.
The City’s fully burdened rates are not subject to
annual Council adoption and are included in the
Master Fee Schedule for informational purposes
only. Rates may be updated administratively
without additional Council action. Please contact
the Finance Department to confirm current rates.
1. Full Cost Recovery Deposits
Significant variances in staff time required to
provide certain services make application of a
fixed fee schedule impracticable. In these
instances, the applicant is charged for services
provided on a reimbursement basis, using the
fully burdened hourly staff rates. These
reimbursement based fees are designated in the
Master Fee Schedule as “full cost recovery”.
Initial Deposit
For each such fee, an initial deposit is required.
The average initial deposit amount, or an initial
deposit schedule, is provided in the Master Fee
Schedule for each full cost recovery deposit based
fee. In all instances, the department shall
determine the appropriate deposit for each
application and shall attempt to limit that deposit
to a reasonable amount.
Additional Deposits
If, at any time, it appears that the deposit amount
will be insufficient to cover accumulated City
costs, the applicant shall deposit additional
amounts as required by the Department Head.
Consultant Services
If the City determines that consultants are
required to assist in the processing of any permit,
the City reserves the right to retain and pay such
consultants from fees collected from the
applicant.
Release of Deposit
Any funds remaining on deposit at the time of the
completion or withdrawal of the application shall
be returned to the depositor, after accounting for
expenses, including overhead, incurred to date.

RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA ADOPTING THE CITY’S
TRAFFIC SIGNAL COMMUNICATIONS MASTER PLAN
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Council adopt the resolution.
SUMMARY
On January 5, 2016, Council approved an agreement between the City of Chula Vista and STC
Traffic, Inc. for the development of the City’s first Traffic Signal Communications Master Plan (the
Plan). The goals of the Plan were to identify the condition of the existing communications system,
clearly assess system gaps, and create a tool that could be used as a guide to implement immediate
and long term communications Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) technologies to achieve a
state-of-the-art traffic signal system.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Environmental Notice
The Project qualifies for a Statutory Exemption pursuant to Section 15262 (Feasibility and Planning
Studies) pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act State Guidelines.
Environmental Determination
The Director of Development Services has reviewed the proposed activity for compliance with the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined that the proposed action, adoption of the Traffic Signal
Communications Master Plan, falls under a Statutory Exemption pursuant to Section 15262 (Feasibility and Planning
Studies) of the State CEQA Guidelines. Thus, no further environmental review is necessary, at this time. However,
projects resulting from Traffic Signal Communications Master Plan, may require environmental review and a CEQA
determination completed prior to commencing said project(s).
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
A draft of the Plan was presented as an informational item at the Safety Commission meeting on May
3, 2017.
DISCUSSION
On January 5, 2016, Council approved an agreement between the City of Chula Vista and STC
Traffic, Inc. for the development of the Traffic Signal Communications Master Plan. STC staff
diligently researched our existing system and records, interviewed City staff, and submitted a
complete Plan in early July 2017.
The new Plan encompasses four distinct and critical elements: (1) existing systems assessment, (2)
needs assessment, (3) future system Architecture and ITS elements, and (4) implementation phasing
plan including cost-benefit analysis. Each of these elements account for key components to help
guide the City toward effective modernization of a comprehensive traffic signal communications

guide the City toward effective modernization of a comprehensive traffic signal communications
network which will support cutting-edge transportation systems and serve as a guiding foundation for
the City’s deployment of Smart City technologies.
With the City’s emphasis on technology to provide excellent and more efficient services to the public,
the Plan provides the guiding framework for the repair, upgrade, and expansion of a traffic signal
communications network that will utilize the latest in communications technology to provide a reliable
and robust communications network for the asset owner and other departments throughout the City
in need of a strong and effective communications network.
Implementation of the $16M Plan is divided into three phases with a goal of full implementation within
10 years (depending on available funding). The three phases are summarized below:
Phase 1: City-Owned Infrastructure (Year 1-3)
·Upgrade existing fiber optic systems to Ethernet communications
·Convert leased phone lines to City-owner wireless systems
·Install video monitoring systems at priority locations
·Upgrade traffic signal equipment to Ethernet-enabled devices Citywide
Phase 2: Infrastructure & Priority Corridors Upgrade (Year 4-6)
·Install fiber optic cable in existing empty conduits
·Install conduit and fiber optic cable to resolve communications gaps
·Upgrade traffic signal equipment on priority corridors with new 2070ATC controllers and CCTV
cameras
Phase 3: Citywide Buildout (Year 7-10)
·Complete communications network
·Upgrade remaining traffic signal equipment with new 2070ATC controllers and CCTV cameras
for remote monitoring
Pending available funding, the Department of Engineering and Capital Projects, is planning to
accelerate the implementation of the Plan and complete the recommended work in the next 5-7
years. This will be accomplished by aggressively seeking grant opportunities, public-public
partnerships, and public-private partnerships to secure additional funding and/or share access to
others’ communications infrastructure. It is also important to note that as technology rapidly evolves
and as the City marches on to become a Smart City, it is critical that the recommendations in the
Plan be considered by staff, and if desired, be implemented in the most efficient and expeditious
manner in order to achieve the best return on our investment and to provide the public with the best
available technology/systems which will enhance our citizens’ quality of life in the City of Chula Vista.
As a growing city, with dozens of traffic signals yet to be built, this Plan supports our effort to utilize
modern telecommunications construction methods that will result in a new network with a much
greater level of service and connectivity. This new network will provide the capability to provide more
efficient and effective traffic signal coordination timing, reduce travel times and greenhouse gases,
and upgrade the network for future implementation of adaptive traffic control systems, video
monitoring (for traffic) systems, pedestrian and bike counters, and many other ITS, autonomous and

connected vehicle, and Smart City technologies.
The Plan is already in use and is serving as a guide for staff to more effectively plan, design, and
implement cutting-edge technology that will provide the public with a safer and more efficient network
for all modes of transportation.
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 Title 2, section
18702.2(a)(11), is not applicable to this decision for purposes of determining a disqualifying real
property-related financial conflict of interest under the Political Reform Act (Cal. Gov't Code § 87100,
et seq.).
LINK TO STRATEGIC GOALS
The City’s Strategic Plan has five major goals: Operational Excellence, Economic Vitality, Healthy
Community, Strong and Secure Neighborhoods and a Connected Community. The Traffic Signal
Communications Master Plan resolution supports the Operational Excellence goal, as it promotes the
use of high-end equipment and technology so employees can achieve high quality public service
which results in enhanced safety and efficiency to our transportation system. This resolution also
supports other major goals in the Strategic Plan since the implementation of a robust traffic signal
communications network and advanced ITS technologies will create a strong foundation for the more
effective deployment of Smart City Initiative technologies in the very near future.
CURRENT YEAR FISCAL IMPACT
Passage of this resolution will not have any direct fiscal impact on the City. The City Council adopted budget includes
$3.0 million in Measure P - temporary sales tax funds allocated to Traffic Signal Systems.
ONGOING FISCAL IMPACT
Staff will continue to actively seek grant opportunities, public-public partnerships, and public-private partnerships to
secure additional funding and/or share access to others’ communications infrastructures. Future Measure P funds are
also included in the Expenditure Plan for Traffic Signal projects.

Executive Summary
The City of Chula Vista is preparing for the next generation of technology which will support the City’s
smart growth and development. At the core of the City’s “Smart City” initiatives are investments in
Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) infrastructure. Through leveraging state-of-the-art
communications systems and Internet of Things (IoT) devices the city will have the ability to gather and
analyze data to gain insights into infrastructure and travel that will lead to better transportation system
management and overall improvement in public services.
The Traffic Signal Communications Master Plan purpose (hereby referred to as Master Plan) is to guide the
City’s investment and implementation in traffic signal communications systems and ITS technology. Chula
Vista is San Diego County’s second largest and fastest growing city. The Master Plan is critical to ensure
the City ’s current and future transportation system needs and objectives are realized through this growth.
Most importantly, the implementation of the Master Plan will promote the City’s vision of sustainability,
economic vitality and high quality of life – through the significant benefits of traffic systems technology
and improved traffic management and operations.
E1 Need
The communications system is the most critical part of a traffic management system and delivers
information from City streets and intersections back to the Traffic Management Center (TMC) where the
management and operation activities take place. The City of Chula Vista monitors and manages 267 traffic
signals, providing safe movement at signalized intersections for vehicles, pedestrians, bicyclists,
emergency vehicles, transit, and rail1. The City of Chula Vista is the fastest growing City in San Diego County
and is expected to add in the order of 100 new traffic signals in the next five to ten years2.
Like many municipalities in San Diego County, the Chula Vista traffic signal communication system operates
legacy equipment and obsolete communication protocol. POTS (Plain Old Telephone Service) leased lines
provide the primary communication links between groups of traffic signals and the traffic equipment room
in City Hall. There are several limiting factors associated with this antiquated communication architecture:
modern devices with desirable capabilities do not support the legacy protocols, the existing
communication bandwidth is a fraction of modern systems, operating and maintaining the existing
communications and legacy devices is increasingly difficult and expensive, and the City relies on a third-
party service provider which is costly3. To sum it up, the
existing traffic communications system is functionally
obsolete and costly. As the City continues to experience
rapid growth and development it is critical to plan for new
technology that will promote efficient management and
operations in the modern traffic environment.

1 Introduction
The City of Chula Vista Traffic Signal Communications Master Plan establishes the planning framework for
implementing state-of-the-art communications technology and Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS)
elements to meet the City’s immediate and long-term traffic system needs. The City has placed great
emphasis on immediate and long-range planning in its continued effort to strike a balance between quality
of life and growth. The Master Plan is a central element to the City’s overall planning framework and
establishes a proactive approach to better serve the public through state-of-the-art traffic systems
technology.
The Master Plan was initiated to address two overarching needs: (1) the immediate need to replace the
existing obsolete systems that inhibit staff’s ability to efficiently manage the traffic signal system and (2)
address the long term need to establish a future-proof platform that supports growth and enables the City
to implement and utilize future transportation systems technology. The Master Plan provides concepts,
assessments, and illustrations in one comprehensive guiding document for staff’s use in preparing the
future City traffic signal communication system and ITS infrastructure.
1.1 City Seƫng
The City of Chula Vista has a
population of over 260,000
people1, covers an area of 52.1
square miles2, is the 2nd largest
City in San Diego County3, and is
the 14th largest City in the State
of California4. Chula Vista is also
the fastest growing City in the
San Diego Region with large
areas of planned development.
To give the City’s growth
context, the City’s General Plan
anticipates a population of over
300,000 residents by 2030, and
an additional 100 new traffic
signals.
1.2 City IniƟaƟves
The City promotes the orderly management of growth in a manner that maintains a balance between

1.3 Consistency with Regional, State, and NaƟonal Architectures and Plans
The "V" Diagram is the standard way to
represent the systems engineering
process for ITS projects. Following this
process reduces risk, controls cost and
schedule, improves quality, and results in
a system that meets the user needs8.
The Master Plan is the earliest planning
stage (pre-design) of the systems
engineering process and presents high-
level concepts and architecture and
supports initial needs identification. The
Master Plan lays the groundwork for
capital improvement programming, prioritization, and budgeting for future identified projects through
subsequent parts of the systems engineering process.
1.3.1 San Diego Region Intelligent Transporta Ɵon Systems (ITS) Strategic Plan
The San Diego Region ITS Strategic Plan provides a unified vision
for regional ITS investment strategies that regional
transportation agencies prioritized for funding and
implementation9. The ITS Strategic Plan provides policy
guidance and articulates the common vision for the employment of ITS technologies to improve mobility,
safety, efficiency, and reliability throughout the region and is a supporting document to San Diego Forward
(The Regional Plan) and the SANDAG 2050 Regional Transportation Plan (RTP)10. The Master Plan will
advance the regional goals to the next level in Chula Vista by identifying specific ITS technologies,
deployment strategies, and the resources required.
1.3.2 California Strategic Highway Safety Plan (SHSP)
The California Strategic Highway Safety Plan (SHSP) identifies signal timing
and ITS tools as appropriate safety countermeasures for intersection
crashes11. The California Local Roadway Safety Manual also identifies
improved signal timing, coordination, and operation as a safety benefit to
address locations that have a crash history at multiple signalized
intersections12. The Master Plan recommends systems necessary for
implementing traffic signal control strategies, including coordinated traffic signal operations. This will
maximize throughput, minimize stops and reduce delay on roadways. In turn, there will be fewer
intersection red-light violations, a reduction in aggressive driver behavior, and a decrease in intersection
crashes.

1.3.3 NaƟonal ITS Architecture
The National ITS Architecture provides a common framework for planning,
defining, and integrating ITS. It is a mature architecture that reflects the
contributions of a broad cross-section of the ITS community (e.g.,
transportation practitioners, systems engineers, system developers, technology
specialists). It is comprised of three primary layers: communications,
transportation, and institutional which set the building block for ITS
development13.
The Master Plan addresses the communication layer of the National
Architecture. Communications systems are the wireline and wireless systems
and equipment that provide paths and connections to transmit information.
The City relies on the communications system to support management and
operation of the many functional aspects of the City’s transportation system.
1.4 Purpose and Goals
The purpose of the Master Plan is to guide the replacement of existing obsolete systems that inhibit staff’s
ability to efficiently manage the traffic signal system and to establish a platform for the City to implement
and utilize future transportation systems technology. The plan represents a significant opportunity for the
City of Chula Vista to advance traffic signal communications systems and supporting elements to the
technological forefront. An intelligent traffic signal communication system is beneficial in many ways and
promotes: increased roadway safety, shortened commute times, travel reliability, reduced greenhouse
gasses, and economic and sustainable growth. The Master Plan will open doors to opportunities including:
access to grant funding, coordination with various projects and developments, cost savings on leased
communications for numerous City needs, providing a future proof platform, and advancing related Smart
City and Climate Action initiatives. The Master Plan ultimately improves mobility through robust

2 Existing Systems Assessment
The basis for planning the concept of the future communication system architecture is laid upon the
foundation of the existing traffic signal and communication system infrastructure. This section documents
the results of extensive research and inventories of the City’s existing traffic systems including:
communications, central systems, field elements, operations, and staff. Several sources of information
were utilized to obtain information including:
• Geographic Information Systems (GIS).
• Laser fiche as-built records.
• Accounting systems.
• QuicNet and SCATS systems.
• Field reviews.
• Interviews with city staff.
Documentation was obtained from various city departments including: Public Works/Engineering, GIS,
Information Technology (IT), Development Services, and Planning. Shapefiles with attribute tables
detailing the number and location for existing traffic signals, conduit, and wireless towers was provided by
the City’s Geographic Information Services (GIS) Department. A digital library comprising 910 researched
plans and documents of the City’s traffic systems was created. The various information sources were
compared and verified with City traffic signal maintenance staff to produce an accurate map of existing
traffic systems Citywide. At the time of this report, 267 traffic signals are owned and operated by the City
of Chula Vista.
A Geographical Information System (GIS) database and map of the existing systems infrastructure was
created and is provided in Appendix A and a schematic detailing the existing traffic system
communications architecture is provided in Appendix B. Detailed review information is presented
throughout the remainder of this section.
2.1 Tra ffic CommunicaƟons Systems
The City of Chula Vista’s traffic communications system is extensive, connecting all the existing traffic
signals and traffic data collection systems in the City, and is comprised of numerous media and network
devices. Traffic communication system documentation was researched to determine location and status
of:
• Single-mode fiber optic network.
• Third-party owned leased line wire based analog network.
• City-owned copper wire based analog network.
• Serial wireless radio communications network.
2017-08-15 Agenda Packet Page 64
Chula Vista Traffic Signal Communications Master Plan Page | 8
The communications system includes a combination of twisted pair copper wired based media, fiber optic
cable media, and Serial digital wireless radios. Third-party owned and serviced Plain Old Telephone Service
(POTS) leased lines provide the primary communication links between traffic systems and the City’s
existing Traffic Signal Communication Center (TSCC) located at City Hall. The following subsections provide
summaries of the existing traffic communications systems and network architecture.
2.1.1 Single-mode Fiber OpƟc Network
Single-mode fiber optic cable provides communications between the TSCC and 25 traffic signals located
along Fourth Avenue, H Street, and Main Street. Fiber strand counts are summarized in Table 2-1.
Table 2-1 Existing Single-mode Fiber Optic Strand Counts
STREET (NORTH/EAST) LIMIT (SOUTH/WEST) LIMIT CABLE
Fourth Avenue (N) Brisbane Street (S) Main Street 288-strand SMFOC
Main Street (E) Main Street (W) Broadway 288-strand SMFOC
Davidson Street (E) Fourth Avenue (W) Guava Avenue 288-strand SMFOC
H Street (E) Hidden Vista Drive (W) Fourth Avenue 36-strand SMFOC
2.1.2 Leased Line and City-Owned Copper Wire Based Analog Network
Accounting systems that contained information on the City’s third-party owned leased line
communications for various traffic systems throughout Chula Vista were researched. Billing information
identified circuit numbers that corresponded with the City’s TSCC and the individual traffic system
telephone drop locations. The location information was cross-checked and verified with the System
Control Number (SCN) address reference table provided by the City’s traffic signal maintenance
department and the traffic signal controller list generated by the City’s QuicNet 4+ central traffic
management system. Billing statements indicate approximately $75,000 is spent annually on leased line
communications1.
Nearly 90% of the City’s 267 traffic signals communicate with the TSCC through a third-party owned POTS
leased line network. The existing AT&T lease line telephone drops provide communication links between
the TSCC and individual traffic signals or groups of traffic signals, interconnected by the City-owned copper
wire based analog multi-drop network.
The original leased lines were first installed approximately 30 years ago by Pacific Bell Telephone Company
(PacBell) in the western portion of the City. As the City continued to develop, City-owned twisted pair
copper interconnect was installed intermittently with developments and capital improvements. The
western portion of Chula Vista, between the I-5 and I-805, is the oldest part of the City and contains a
minimal amount of City-owned twisted pair interconnect. The areas east of I-805 are newer and contain
more City-owned twisted pair interconnect. All the existing copper wire based interconnect links operate
on legacy Serial 1,200 bps analog modems and lack direct connections to the City’s TSCC, and thus require
2017-08-15 Agenda Packet Page 65
Chula Vista Traffic Signal Communications Master Plan Page | 9
utilization of leased line telephone drop communications. The existing network is obsolete and is
incapable of supporting modern ITS technologies.
2.1.3 Serial Wireless Radio CommunicaƟons
Several traffic signal locations in the City utilize Serial wireless radios for communications due to a lack of
copper wire or fiber infrastructure to provide direct connection to the TSCC. Wireless radio
communication is 900 MHZ Serial (EIA-232) digital, low bandwidth. Existing wireless radio interconnect
locations are summarized in Table 2-2.

2.1.4 Cell Towers
There are City-owned and privately-owned cell towers located throughout the City. The number and
location were determined from shapefiles provided by the City’s GIS Department. The cell towers are not
currently used for traffic-related systems.
2.2 Central Systems
The City’s central systems are housed in City Hall and include:
• Traffic Signal Communication Center (TSCC)
• Traffic Management Center (TMC)
• QuicNet 4+ Regional Arterial Management System (RAMS)
• Sydney Coordinated Adaptive Traffic System (SCATS)
As-built documentation was unavailable for several of the traffic systems housed within the City’s existing
TSCC. Limited existing documentation was supplemented with on-site investigations.
2.2.1 Tra ffic Signal CommunicaƟons Center and Tra ffic Management Center
The TSCC was constructed with City Hall in 2004 and quickly became a dual-purpose data center and Traffic
Management Center (TMC). At 9 feet by 17 feet, the TSCC was not designed to be used as a TMC and over
time, the room became congested and disorganized as new equipment and systems were installed2. TSCC
equipment includes:
• AT&T telephone service lines termination panel with multiple demarcation points.
• 288-strand single-mode fiber optic cable line.
2017-08-15 Agenda Packet Page 66

• Splice enclosure rack mount.
• Traffic signal test cabinet.
• Two equipment racks housing analog modems.
• Two Digi 16-port Serial communications servers.
• QuicNet 4+ Server
• SCATS Server
• Battery back-up system.
• Cisco 10 Base-T/100 Base-Tx Ethernet switch.
• Type I enclosure breaker panel serving the existing TSCC room, IT room, and new TMC room.
The City executed a design-build contract with STC Traffic to remodel the TSCC into a distinct data center
and build a new TMC. The project was completed in early 2017. Figures 2-1 and 2-2 below show the TSCC
and TMC before and after construction.

2.2.2 Central Tra ffic Management System
The City utilizes the QuicNet 4+ Regional Arterial Management Systems (RAMS) central control software
for traffic management. Implemented in 2006, RAMS enables sharing of traffic signal operation
information across jurisdictions in San Diego County through the QuicNet 4+ software application.
Communications between agencies is accomplished over a T1 leased line and connectivity for the City is
illustrated in Figure 2-3. The RAMS systems are currently being upgraded to Transparity as part of the
system maintenance program. A new fiber optic line has been installed at the City’s TMC and
communications will be 2 Mbps Ethernet over fiber when Transparity is active.
Figure 2-3 RAMS Network
2.2.3 AdapƟve Signal Control
The City of Chula Vista installed the Sydney Coordinated Adaptive Traffic System (SCATS) in May 2003. The
system objectives include selecting cycle lengths, splits, and offsets to minimize stops during light demand,
minimize delays during normal demand, and maximize throughput during heavy demand. The SCATS
system includes twelve intersections along portions of East H Street and Otay Lakes Road3. The system
runs on a dedicated server located in the TSCC. The server and user workstation are connected via a hub
and 10/100 Base-T LAN. A 16-channel Serial interface unit communicates with the intersections through
2017-08-15 Agenda Packet Page 68
Chula Vista Traffic Signal Communications Master Plan Page | 12
data multiplexers and three low speed modems. Seven low speed channels from the 16-port Serial
interface connect to the multiplexer located at Chula Vista City Hall. A composite signal from this
multiplexer connects to a modem configured for 2400 bps synchronous operation. The voice frequency
side of the modem connects with a changeover switch to the telephone drop cabinet third-party lease line
at the East H Street and Southwestern College Entrance intersection and provides a composite signal to a
multiplexer. The multiplexer decodes the seven low speed intersection signals and connects to the
intersection modems and a changeover switches the communications line connections to the
configuration required for SCATS4.
Field elements include 2070 controllers with TransCore software and the modem and multiplexer
equipment. System elements in the TSCC include a Windows NT operating system based PC server, SCATS
intersection control software version 5, Serial interface hardware and software, modem and multiplexer
equipment, an equipment rack, and a user work station. The SCATS network is shown in Figure 2-4. The
SCATS system is no longer operational due to the SCATS server failure and a replacement adaptive traffic
signal control system is currently being deployed.
Figure 2-4 SCATS Network

2.3 Field Elements and Tra ffic OperaƟons
The ITS communication and central systems previously described are utilized to manage and operate
various connected devices in the field. These include traffic signal cabinets and controllers that operate
timing and coordination, emergency vehicle preemption systems, grade crossing preemption, transit
signal priority, and data acquisition systems.
2.3.1 Cabinets and Controllers
The most common signal cabinet and current standard installation in the City is the type 332 controller
cabinet. Most of the traffic signal controllers in Chula Vista are type 170 or Type 170E running 233
intersection control programs. As previously described in Section 2.2.3 there are 12 traffic signals that
have custom-built 2070 controllers that run SCATS intersection control software version 5.
2.3.2 Tra ffic Signal Timing and CoordinaƟon
Many traffic signals throughout the City run Time of Day (TOD) plans with coordination patterns typically
scheduled during the morning, midday, and evening peak periods along arterials and secondary roadways.
Table 2-3 contains a list of the 22 coordinated corridors in the City. The corridors are illustrated
geographically on Figure 2-5.

2.3.3 Grade Crossing PreempƟon
The Blue Line Trolley route, operated by the San Diego
Metropolitan Transit System (MTS) has 3 station stops in Chula
Vista: Bayfront/ E Street, H Street, and Palomar Street. The Blue
Line runs parallel to Industrial Blvd and there are 7 preempted
traffic signals. The grade crossing preemption systems were
recently upgraded to operate advance preemption and
supervisory circuits. This preemption operation is more complex
than traditional preemption operation and requires more complex
controller programming and railroad to traffic signal interconnect.
2.3.4 Transit Signal Priority
The South Bay Rapid project includes a 21-mile bus route that will
run between the Otay Mesa Port of Entry and Downtown San Diego
via National City and eastern Chula Vista. Eight stations in eastern
Chula Vista and Otay Mesa, a Direct Access Ramp (DAR) on East
Palomar Street at I-805, and a nearly six-mile dedicated transit lane
in the median of East Palomar Street and along Eastlake Parkway
are planned along the route. All phases of the South Bay Rapid
project are currently in construction including 12 of the 15 total
stations, arterial transit-only lanes on East Palomar Street, Transit
Signal Priority (TSP), and enhanced customer amenities5.
2.3.5 Emergency Vehicle PreempƟon
Emergency Vehicle Preemption (EVP) technology overrides typical traffic signal operations to provide
priority for approaching emergency responder vehicles including firetrucks and ambulances. The typical
emergency vehicle preemption build throughout Chula Vista includes an infrared-based system with
varying models of Opticom phase selectors and infrared system emitters and detectors. Preemption
devices throughout the City are typically older and range in age from 5 years to 15 years old.

2.3.6 Data AcquisiƟon Systems
Traffic operations are monitored by City staff regularly and assessed annually by the City’s Growth
Management Oversight Commission (GMOC). Data acquisition systems including a small number of Traffic
Measurement Devices and are utilized to provide real-time and historical traffic data. Accurate data is
imperative to analyzing operational efficiencies and ensuring traffic threshold standards are met.
2.3.6.1 Traffic Measurement Devices
The City of Chula Vista’s Growth Management Program seeks to maintain quality of life by monitoring
threshold standards for various public facilities and service through the City’s Traffic Monitoring Program
(TMP). Traffic thresholds are monitored for Arterial Level of Service (ALOS) and Urban Street Level of
Service (ULOS) standards. To acquire necessary traffic data for monitoring and assessment purposes,
traffic measurement devices including volume data collection and speed monitoring systems are located
throughout Chula Vista. Remote Traffic Microwave Sensors (RTMS) are located at 28 permanent count
stations Citywide. 18 in-pavement wireless Sensys detectors are located along Olympic Parkway, East H
Street, and Telegraph Canyon Road for arterial travel time (ATT) volume, occupancy, and speed (VOS) data
and bicycle activity. Table 2-4 below summarizes traffic measurement device locations by type.
Communications to the City’s TSCC is accomplished through a third-party owned cellular network using
older 2G technology and data is hosted by an outside party server. Maintenance and operation of the
system is increasingly expensive and expansion is cost prohibitive. The system is becoming obsolete and
more modern and affordable systems are available on the market.

2.4.2 Tra ffic Signal Maintenance Group
Traffic systems maintenance is provided by the Traffic Operations Section under the City’s Engineering and
Capital Projects Department. Traffic device technicians perform annual preventative maintenance and
repairs on both emergency and as-needed basis for traffic signal systems and street lights throughout
Chula Vista7. Traffic operations staff report to the City Traffic Engineer.
2.5 CommunicaƟons System Topology and Architecture
The traffic systems research and documentation were documented in a Geographic Information System
(GIS) database and presented graphically with a corresponding map. ESRI software ArcMap 10.2.2 was
utilized and a dynamic layer set with attribute tables were created and include all inventory information
researched for inclusion. Shapefiles for traffic signals, conduit, and cellular towers were provided by the
City’s GIS department. Existing attribute tables for the shapefiles were supplemented with information
obtained from digitized improvement plans and additional City-provided documentation. Table 2-5
summarizes the dynamic layers and inventory information. Examples of the GIS attribute tables that
correspond with the dynamic layers are provided in Figures 2-7 through 2-10.

2.5.3 Regional CommunicaƟons Infrastructure
Existing communications facilities for regional agencies including the San Diego Association of
Governments (SANDAG), San Diego Metropolitan Transit System (MTS), California Department of
Transportation (Caltrans) District 11, and the Port of San Diego were obtained from the regional Fiber
Working Group (FWG) documentation. Existing and future Port of San Diego fiber locations were
researched from the Bayfront Master Plan. The Port of San Diego is currently developing a fiber master
plan that will complete a fiber optic ring around the San Diego Bay area. The architecture is built based
on a core ring concept that will provide high-speed network entry points for the entire area. SANDAG is
upgrading the RAMS system connectivity between each agency in the region to a new fiber optic lease
connection with 2 Mbps speed. Fiber optic communications routes for each regional agency is mapped
on the Master Plan map and assigned to separate unique dynamic layers within the GIS geodatabase.

3 Needs Assessment
The traffic systems communications needs assessment is based on two primary criteria: existing system
deficiencies that require more immediate attention and the needs of the long-term future transportation
network. Existing system deficiencies and needs have been identified through an extensive review of the
existing conditions including the traffic communications system, central systems, ITS elements, and traffic
operations. The City’s future transportation network was researched to identify the new infrastructure
needs and subsequently prioritize opportunities to improve the traffic communication system. New roads
and traffic signals provide opportunities to expand, modernize, or build new communications system
technology and infrastructure that meet both immediate and future needs. The communications system
needs include considerations for speed, bandwidth, reliability, redundancy, networking capabilities, gaps
in communication due to infrastructure and/ or media deficiencies, and new locations requiring service.
The following sections present the existing system deficiency identification and future roadway network
assessment.
3.1 Stakeholder Outreach
Outreach and coordination meetings were conducted with several other City departments to acquire
additional information and documentation on existing and future traffic systems in the City. The City’s
Geographic Information System (GIS) Department provided relevant GIS shapefiles and information. The
Information Technology (IT) Department provided information on communications connectivity within the
City’s Traffic Signal Communications Center (TSCC) and existing and future system support requirements.
Staff from the City’s Development Services Department and Economic Development Department provided
documentation and information for both in-construction and future improvement projects and master
plans throughout the City that will affect traffic systems in Chula Vista. Additionally, SANDAG’s 2050
Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) Revenue Constrained Plan for Arterial Projects was researched.
3.2 Deficiency IdenƟficaƟon
Communications deficiencies have been identified for traffic communications, central systems, field
elements, and traffic operations based upon analysis of the existing communications systems conditions.
Existing communications media and protocols, both City-owned and leased, currently limit the City’s ability
to monitor and manage traffic systems in real-time. Deficiencies and needs were identified based on the
capabilities of the existing elements and the functionality necessary to efficiently and effectively operate
the various systems and operations.
3.2.1 Tra ffic CommunicaƟons System Deficiencies
Communications system deficiencies were identified and are listed as follows.
• Existing single-mode fiber optic network utilizes low speed (1,200 bps) Serial communications.
2017-08-15 Agenda Packet Page 82
Chula Vista Traffic Signal Communications Master Plan Page | 26
• Existing wireless radio communications are Serial and have low bandwidth capabilities.
• Extensive gaps in City-owned communication infrastructure due to missing physical connections
centrally and/ or locally. Only 24 of the City’s 267 existing traffic signals have a physical link to the
TSCC.
• Leased communications are costly, reliant on the third-party owner for communications repairs, and
have limited communications capabilities such as low-speeds, low-bandwidth, and are analog-based.
Approximately 90% of the City’s existing traffic signals communicate on leased lines, limiting the entire
traffic signal communications network to analog.
• Operation and maintenance costs for the existing leased line telecommunications network is
expensive, currently costing the City approximately $75,000 per year, and incapable for supporting
existing and future traffic systems and ITS applications.
• Two traffic signals are offline and unable to communicate with the City’s TSCC through leased line
communications due to the third-party owner’s inability to make adequate repairs to the network.
• Video detection feeds are unable to be viewed remotely due to physical gaps in communication
infrastructure to the TSCC and bandwidth limitations associated with leased line communications and/
or Serial wireless radio communications.
• Existing traffic signal communications system bandwidth is unable to accommodate current and future
high bandwidth required by ITS applications such as real-time video monitoring of the traffic on the
city streets.
• Modern devices with desired capabilities do not support the legacy communication protocols.
3.2.2 Central Systems Deficiencies
The City remodeled and built a new TSCC data center and Traffic Management Center through a separate
design-build task with STC Traffic. The project was completed in early 2017 and resolved the primary
central systems deficiencies. Remaining central system deficiencies were identified as follows.
• The QuicNet4+ Regional Arterial Management System (RAMS) currently utilized is outdated and does
not offer the functionality provided in modern systems that are becoming industry standard. It is also
unable to communicate with Advanced Traffic Controllers (ATC).
• The Sydney Coordinated Adaptive Traffic System (SCATS) is outdated and subject to down time due to
the legacy protocols, low-speed (1,200 bps) connection, and bandwidth limitations associated with
leased line communications. The SCATS system is no longer operational.
The two remaining central system deficiencies are being resolved through implementation of two new
state-of-the-art systems in 2017, (1) a new Transparity RAMS system and (2) a new central traffic
management system (ATMS.now) and SynchroGreen™ Adaptive Traffic Control System (ATCS).

3.2.3 Field Elements and Tra ffic OperaƟons Deficiencies
The City uses multiple systems and strategies to manage traffic operations throughout Chula Vista
including traffic signal timing and coordination, grade crossing preemption, emergency vehicle
preemption, transit signal priority, and data acquisition. Each system has been reviewed and deficiencies
identified include:
• There are 22 existing coordinated corridors throughout the City. Many have inconsistent coordination
plans. This is a symptom of a lack of reliable communications to traffic signals to monitor and verify
that signal timing is as designed and TOD plans are providing efficient and effective traffic progression.
• Type 170 controllers are outdated and do not provide modern communication protocols or
functionality required to perform advanced traffic operations.
• Emergency Vehicle Preemption equipment is antiquated (up to 15 years old), Infrared-based, relies on
line-of-sight, and is susceptible to illegal emitters. Unauthorized preemption drastically impacts
coordinated corridors, as recovery can take a significant amount of time, causing unnecessary impacts
to traffic signal operations on critical corridors throughout Chula Vista.
• Traffic measurement devices currently communicate through a third-party owned cellular network
and the traffic data is hosted through an outside party server.
• Traffic signals lack stand-alone battery back-up units for emergency power during power outages.
• Field elements lack the ability to communicate with the element, view the element status, and
remotely manage and control the element.
• City staff does not have the communication system necessary to monitor and control traffic in real
time through video and data acquisition.
3.2.4 CommunicaƟons Gap IdenƟficaƟon
Gaps in communications infrastructure were identified through analysis of the Master Plan GIS map, which
geographically presents the existing traffic systems. Although the City currently has established
communications to approximately 95% of the 267 existing traffic signals, only 9% are communicating on
City-owned infrastructure and the remaining traffic signals communicate via leased lines. The high
operating and maintenance costs associated with these leased lines, as well as the limited communication
capabilities due to obsolete technology, makes the existing communications network an impractical and
unsustainable model for the City of Chula Vista’s existing and future transportation system needs.
Communications gap identification includes considerations for gaps between traffic signals locally and
gaps between traffic signals and the TMC. Based on the existing communications system in Chula Vista,
gaps were categorized as follows:
• Gaps due to lack of infrastructure.
• Gaps due to leased infrastructure.
• Gaps due to combination of leased and City-owned infrastructure.
2017-08-15 Agenda Packet Page 84
Chula Vista Traffic Signal Communications Master Plan Page | 28
3.2.4.1 Infrastructure Gaps
Gaps due to a lack of infrastructure include signalized locations with no existing City-owned or leased
communications infrastructure. There are 13 offline traffic signals in the City that cannot be monitored
remotely from the TMC and City staff must be dispatched to verify signal operations in the field. This is an
inefficient use of both City time and resources. Of the 13 offline traffic signals, 11 are caused by gaps in
communication infrastructure and 2 are leased infrastructure locations that require repairs.
3.2.4.2 Leased Gaps
Gaps due to leased infrastructure include signalized intersections that communicate with the TMC through
a third-party owned POTS leased network. There are 102 telephone drop traffic signals, including 11 SCATS
signals, in the City with the majority located in the downtown area between I-5 and I-805.
3.2.4.3 Combination Infrastructure and Leased Gaps
Communications gaps that are caused by a combination of leased and City-owned infrastructure include
traffic signals that are interconnected by City-owned twisted pair copper wire to a traffic signal
communicating on leased lines. These signals are currently connected to telephone drops due to a lack of
a direct communications link to the City’s TMC. There are 124 traffic signals, including 1 SCATS signal, on
the City-owned copper wire based analog multi-drop network.
Table 3-1 provides a summary of the traffic signal communication system deficiencies and Figure 3-1
presents the City’s communications gaps1.

3.3 Future Roadway Projects
Relevant information for future roadway projects throughout Chula Vista was researched in
documentation provided by the City’s Public Works, Engineering and Development Services Departments.
The documents provided information on new traffic signals, new roadways, and planned roadway
widenings. The documents researched include:
• Otay Ranch Villages Sectional Planning Area (SPA) Plans.
• University Villages Project Environmental Impact Report (EIR).
• Bayfront Master Plan.
• Chula Vista Main Street Streetscape Master Plan.
• Urban Core Specific Plan.
The City of Chula Vista General Plan organizes the City into a hierarchy of geographic areas for policy
purposes. From the largest to the smallest, the areas include: Planning Area, Subarea, District, and Focus
Area. Chula Vista’s four Planning Areas are: Bayfront, Northwest, Southwest, and East. Each planning area
has an Area Plan that is incorporated into the Land Use and Transportation Element. Research was
conducted for planned projects that would impact Chula Vista’s future roadway network.

3.3.1 Future Tra ffic Signals
Research of the above documentation identified 96 traffic signals that are planned for future construction.
The future traffic signals were documented on a dynamic layer in GIS with the attribute table detailing the
intersection location. The following are the developments associated with the future traffic signals.
• The Chula Vista Bayfront Master Plan (CVMBP) is a joint master plan by the Port of San Diego, City of
Chula Vista, and Pacifica Companies to develop a 500-plus acre public area along the San Diego Bay.
Seven new traffic signals will be installed in the Bayfront area2.
• The Chula Vista Main Street Streetscape Master Plan develops a Complete Street plan for Main Street
between Industrial Boulevard and the I-805. The roadway plan identifies 6 new signalized
intersections along Main Street between Jacqua Street and Otay Valley Road/ Maple Drive3.
• The Eastern area of the City has developed thousands of acres of formerly undeveloped land since the
mid-1970s. The area comprises six master planned communities including: Sunbow, Rancho del Rey,
Eastlake, Rolling Hills Ranch, San Miguel Ranch, and Otay Ranch. Five of the six communities are either
built-out or nearing completion. Otay Ranch is in the development process and is the largest master
planned community in Chula Vista with 83 planned new traffic signals4.
3.3.2 Future Tra ffic CommunicaƟons Systems
The City plans to construct several new traffic system communications paths. The following describes the
future paths by communications medium.
3.3.2.1 Future Copper Wire Interconnect
New copper wire based interconnect will be installed to close the communications infrastructure gap
between East H Street/ Tierra Del Rey and East H Street/Paseo Ranchero on the future adaptive traffic
signals project identified in Section 3.3.35.
3.3.2.2 Future Single-mode Fiber Interconnect
New fiber routes will be constructed in conjunction with the following projects:
• The South Bay Rapid project installs new City-owned conduit and single-mode fiber optic cable along
portions of I-805, East Palomar Street, Eastlake Parkway, Birch Road, and SR-125.
• The Main Street Fiber Optic Project installs new conduit and fiber, with City-owned inner-duct and
dedicated fiber, along Main Street from Industrial Boulevard to SR-125.
• In the Rancho Del Rey area, new conduit and single-mode fiber optic cable will be installed along
portions of North Rancho Del Rey Parkway, South Rancho Del Rey Parkway, Ridgeback Road, Otay Lakes
Road, East H Street, and Corral Canyon Road.
3.3.2.3 Future Wireless Interconnect
New wireless interconnect will be installed at the following locations:
2017-08-15 Agenda Packet Page 88
Chula Vista Traffic Signal Communications Master Plan Page | 32
• Industrial Boulevard and L Street (Drop) to Industrial Boulevard and Naples Street.
• 4th Avenue and L Street (Existing Fiber) to Hilltop Drive and L Street.
• 3rd Avenue and H Street (Existing Fiber) to 3rd Avenue and I Street.
3.3.3 Future AdapƟve Tra ffic Control System
Grant funding from the Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) will implement an Adaptive Traffic
Control System (ATCS) at 28 signalized intersections on East H Street, Paseo Ranchero, Otay Lakes Road,
and Telegraph Canyon Road. Twelve of the 28 project signals are existing SCATS signals that are being
replaced with the new AT SC system and 16 are non-adaptive signals. The traffic signal communications
will be upgraded to an Ethernet/IP network. The SynchroGreen™ ATCS system was selected and
implementation is anticipated in mid to late 2017.
3.3.4 Future Coordinated Corridors
Four new traffic signal coordination networks are planned, in addition to the 22 existing corridors on the
streets listed below and shown on Figure 3-2.
• East H Street: Bonita Vista High School Driveway to Eastlake Drive.
• Eastlake Parkway: Greensgate Drive to Commercial Driveway.
• East Palomar Street: I-805 to Olympic Parkway.
• Otay Lakes Road: Allen School Lane to Bonita Vista Middle School Driveway.

3.3.5 Future Roadways
The Otay Ranch Villages Sectional Planning Area (SPA) plans and documentation provided by the City’s
Public Works and Engineering Departments were researched for future roadway construction. The new
roadways are anticipated in the East subarea for Otay Ranch Villages 3, 8 East, 8 West, 9, and 10. A dynamic
layer in GIS documents the location, street names, and associated project in the attribute table.
3.3.6 Future Roadway Widening
Specific Plans and Master Plans throughout the City were researched to identify future
roadway widening projects which can provide potential opportunities to expand the
traffic communications systems infrastructure. The Chula Vista Urban Core Specific Plan
Mobility Element Section 3 outlined Future Conditions and Street Improvement
Opportunities including:
• Widening of E Street between Woodlawn Avenue and I-5 to serve traffic needs, reduce queues in the
westbound direction, and improve operations at the I-5 Northbound ramp at Woodlawn Avenue.
• Widening of H Street from 3rd Avenue to Broadway to accommodate buildout traffic, improve
segment operations, and reach the ultimate classification of H Street per the General Plan.
• Widening of Broadway between E Street and F Street to accommodate a consistent configuration
along Broadway between C Street and L Street including a raised medians and bike lanes.
Appendix C contains the complete list of future transportation projects and traffic signals within the City.
3.4 SANDAG 2050 RTP
The SANDAG 2050 Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) was referenced to gather information on future
roadway projects that are planned to be constructed over the next 33 years. RTP Appendix A (2050 RTP
Projects, Costs, and Phasing) was researched to obtain additional information for each respective project.
Due to funding limitations and uncertainties, only arterial projects contained in the revenue constrained
plan were inventoried. Within the City of Chula Vista, two projects have been identified and summarized
in Table A.8 (Phased Arterial Projects – Revenue Constrained Plan) including:
• Willow Street Bridge Project: Replace and widen the existing bridge, including shoulders, on Willow
Street from Bonita Road to Sweetwater Road. This project is currently in construction.
• North Fourth Avenue and Brisbane Street Project: Widen Fourth Avenue to add an additional lane on
the east side of the roadway.
The Future Road Network for the City of Chula Vista is illustrated in Figure 3-3.

4 Future System Architecture and ITS Elements
The future City traffic signal communication system architecture will link all system elements creating one
ubiquitous network on which all devices will communicate. The Master Plan architecture is conceived as
a reliable and future-proof network that will meet any City transportation system need. This section
presents the network and ITS elements, standardization, topology, physical and logical requirements to
achieve the future communication system concept. Several architecture examples are provided to
demonstrate system connectivity and resiliency. This section also presents the communication system
relation to Chula Vista Smart City transportation initiatives. A schematic detailing the future traffic system
communications architecture concept is provided in Appendix D.
4.1 Future Network StandardizaƟon
Today’s “continuously connected” devices like smart phones, tablets and personal computers use Ethernet
protocol to connect with each other and the internet. The world’s communication systems are based on
the Ethernet protocol. There are no more separate data networks or voice networks as there were during
1980’s. Nowadays one common Ethernet network utilizing Internet Protocol (IP) efficiently handles both
voice and data.
Since Ethernet networks are ubiquitous the cost of communications
equipment has continuously declined while the communications capabilities
increase. The “Internet of Things” (IoT) applications will cause even further
decline in Ethernet equipment price. Additionally, there are plenty of
knowledgeable network engineers and technicians to support these new
networks.
The newer traffic, transportation, and ITS devices are either standardized on Ethernet interface or offer
Ethernet interface as an option. Yet to be invented future devices will most likely support Ethernet
interface. Ethernet provides a “future proof” network for the foreseeable future.
The City of Chula Vista future traffic signal communication system network will be based on Ethernet
protocol.
The future network will combine multiple communications medium such as single mode fiber, existing
copper plant, point-to-multipoint wireless, and cellular.
The future “CORE” network will use Layer 3 nodes connecting to each other via single mode fiber links.
The future Ethernet/ IP protocol network shall be designed as a two-tiered network. Tier 1 will utilize the
Layer 3 node equipment connected to each other in a ring network fashion using 10 Gbps or higher speed
links. Tier 2 will utilize the Layer 2 Managed Field Ethernet Switches (MFES) such as VDSL switches, field
Ethernet switches, and wireless broadband radios also connected to each other in a ring network fashion
at various speed links, depending on the equipment on that link. ITS devices such as traffic controllers,
2017-08-15 Agenda Packet Page 93
Chula Vista Traffic Signal Communications Master Plan Page | 37
conflict monitors, CCTV cameras, Dynamic Message Signs (DMS), vehicle detectors, transit and emergency
vehicle pre-emption devices, etc. will connect to the copper ports of Layer 2 MFES.
The network architecture topology example is shown in Figure 4-1. The main feature of the future traffic
signal communication system is its self-healing capability. The MFES’s, equipped with either dual fiber
ports or dual VDSL ports, will connect to each other in a daisy chain fashion and to the Layer 3 nodes
eliminating single point of failure and providing unattended, automatic self-healing capability.
Figure 4-1 Future CORE Ring Network Topology Example
At every traffic system location, the self-healing ring technology will be utilized as much as financially
possible. When implemented, the City will have a state-of-the-art, future proof network that will be easily
expandable to serve the city across diverse geography and services. The City of Chula Vista traffic signal
communication system will simultaneously support multiple different ITS applications including:
• Existing and future traffic controllers.
• CCTV cameras.
2017-08-15 Agenda Packet Page 94
Chula Vista Traffic Signal Communications Master Plan Page | 38
• Conflict monitors.
• Dynamic message signs.
• Highway advisory radios.
• Vehicle detection systems, (radar, video, etc.).
• Emergency vehicle pre-emption systems.
• Bluetooth and/or Wi-Fi based travel time systems.
• Upcoming Vehicle to Infrastructure (V2I) systems and “Autonomous Vehicle” systems.
In addition to the above ITS applications, the future traffic signal communication system will support
• All future “Smart City” related applications.
• All future Wi-Fi communications anywhere in the City including the “Chula Vista Smart Bayfront”
project.
The network will also support:
• Public message billboards and public messaging systems.
• Voice, video, streamed video services, and video conferencing among departments.
• Any future Ethernet based communication devices and/ or services.
At the City’s discretion, the network will be able to provide bandwidth and/ or ports sharing capability to
different City departments. The same network could also provide bandwidth to private enterprises.
4.2 Future Network Architecture Examples
Figure 4-2 shows one Layer 2 fiber switch based self-healing ring and four Layer 2 VDSL switch (copper)
based self-healing rings. Each Layer 2 switch ring starts from a Layer 3 Ethernet router and terminates on
a different Layer 3 Ethernet router. The Layer 3 ring starts at the TMC from the Layer 3 Ethernet router
NODE TMC-1 and goes through NODE A, NODE B, NODE C and returns to the TMC and terminates on a
different Layer 3 router NODE TMC-2. This topology eliminates any single point of failure, fiber cut or a
node failure and the self-healing capability is the main principle of the future network design concept.
Figure 4-3 shows one Layer 2 fiber switch based self-healing ring starting from a Layer 3 Ethernet router
NODE A and terminating on a different Layer 3 Ethernet router NODE C. In this topology if a Layer 2 fiber
switch fails, the fiber switches left of the failure point will communicate to NODE A and the fiber switches
right of the failure point will communicate to NODE C. All the devices attached to Layer 2 switches will
recover communications to the TMC automatically. Only the devices attached to the failed switch will lose
communications to the TMC. If a fiber link fails, the devices attached to that switch will recover
communications to the TMC via the other port.
In addition, to illustrate the “dual homing” concept, a Layer 2 fiber switch is connected to both NODE A
and NODE B and a second Layer 2 fiber switch is connected to both NODE B and NODE C. If one fiber link
fails for a Layer 2 fiber switch, it will still communicate to the TMC via the other NODE.

Figure 4-4 shows one Layer 2 VDSL switch (copper) based self-healing ring start from a Layer 3 Ethernet
router NODE A and terminate on a different Layer 3 Ethernet router NODE B. In this topology if a Layer 2
VDSL switch fails, the VDSL switches left of the failure point will communicate to NODE A and the VDSL
switches right of the failure point will communicate to NODE B. All the devices attached to Layer 2 VDSL
switches will automatically recover communications to the TMC. Only the devices attached to the failed
VDSL switch will lose communications to the TMC. If a VDSL link fails, the devices attached to that switch
will recover communications to the TMC via the other port.
2017-08-15 Agenda Packet Page 97
Chula Vista Traffic Signal Communications Master Plan Page | 41
Figure 4-4 Future VDSL Copper Switch Ring Network Topology Example
Figure 4-5 shows one Layer 2 fiber switch based self-healing ring starting from the Layer 3 Ethernet router
NODE A and terminating on the Layer 3 Ethernet router NODE C. Figure 4-5 also shows a second self-
healing ring composed of Layer 2 VDSL switches, starting from the Layer 2 fiber switch, Switch #1 on the
left and terminating on a different Layer 2 switch, Switch #2 on the right. Fiber Layer 2 switch, Switch #1
and VDSL switch, Switch #3 are collocated on the left and Fiber Layer 2 switch, Switch #2 and VDSL switch,
Switch #4 are collocated on the right. Fiber and VDSL switches connect to each other via a short CAT 5
cable inside the traffic controller cabinet.
In this topology if a Layer 2 switch (fiber or VDSL) fails, both the fiber switches based ring and the VDSL
switches based ring will automatically recover communications to the TMC via either Switch #1 or Switch
#2. Only the devices attached to the failed Layer 2 switch (fiber or VDSL) will lose communications to the
TMC. If a link (fiber or copper) fails, the devices attached to that switch will recover communications to
the TMC via the other port.
2017-08-15 Agenda Packet Page 98
Chula Vista Traffic Signal Communications Master Plan Page | 42
Figure 4-5 Future VDSL Copper Switch Ring to Fiber Switch Ring Topology
Figure 4-6 shows isolated signals that are not on fiber routes on the city-owned copper wire routes, and
signals that are on the city-owned copper wire routes but with no direct connection to a Layer 3 router.
These isolated signals will use a 4G wireless router (also called a cellular modem) and communicate to the
TMC over the 4G cellular service provider owned IoT service.
Those signals that are on the city-owned copper wire routes but with no direct connection to a Layer 3
router will also communicate to the TMC using a 4G wireless router collocated with the “head-end” Layer
2 VDSL switch over the same 4G cellular service provider owned IoT service.
In this topology, if a 4G router fails, only that single signal or the whole VDSL line is lost. If the IoT router,
or the Firewall at the TMC or the link to the IoT service from the TMC fails, the communication to the 4G
routers will be recovered via the second IoT link from NODE B.

Figure 4-6 Future IoT over Cellular Wireless Network Topology Example
Figure 4-7 shows three different owned wireless network topology examples utilizing 802.11 ac (or the
latest technology) wireless radios with integrated and external antennas. The same self-healing scenarios
explained in prior cases also apply. If a remote radio or the wireless link from that remote radio location
fails, only that location loses communications to the TMC. If a master radio fails, all the locations
communicating with the master radio fails. Where geographically possible, mesh wireless links should be
used.

4.2.1 TSCC CommunicaƟon Ports
All the Digi boards at the TSCC will be removed, discarded and replaced with “Virtual Com Port” software
provided by Digi. The Virtual Com Port software allows the existing traffic controller software that was
communicating with the existing 170E controllers over its Serial port to communicate over the new
Ethernet network without any hardware or firmware changes to the 170E controller in the field. Only a
new Digi N2S-170 Card will be installed in the modem slot of the 170E controller.

4.2.2 Bandwidth Requirements
The vast bandwidth of a modern Ethernet network dramatically increases accessibility to all ITS devices
and applications within the traffic signal network, including streaming video from CCTV cameras and
emerging technologies such as Connected Vehicles and Smart City applications. While the initial upgrade
to Ethernet will effectively over-provision the capacity requirements of existing technology, the use of
managed network switches allows for resource reservation control mechanisms ensuring Quality of
Service (QoS) can be delivered to critical applications and/or devices.
4.2.2.1 Traffic Signal Cabinet Assemblies and Components
The assemblies and components of a traffic signal cabinet were originally developed under the restrictions
of legacy communication networks where bandwidth was a scarce resource. These utilize a minimal
portion of the overall bandwidth available in an Ethernet network. A single IP surveillance camera
consumes several orders of magnitude more bandwidth than bandwidth consumed by all the traffic
controllers within the same network. However, cumulative impact of thousands of devices can overload
the network. The traffic control devices consuming minimal bandwidth include:
• Traffic Controller Unit
• Conflict Monitor Unit
• Preemption Phase Selector
• Battery Backup Unit
4.2.2.2 IP Surveillance Cameras
Real time video streaming over IP is the chief consumer of network bandwidth in a traffic signal
communication network. Live video is paramount to the effective management of signal operations at
individual intersections and along arterial routes. Video detection cameras and Pan-Tilt-Zoom (PTZ)
cameras are commonly used to monitor the flow of the traffic. The bandwidth utilized by cameras ranges
from 0.5 to 5 bps per camera1. The following parameters affect the actual bandwidth consumed by an IP
video camera system and one must consider the following factors:
• Video encoding algorithm, like H.265 (AVC), H.264, MPEG-4, MPEG-2, Motion JPEG.
• Resolution.
• Frames per second.
• Number of Cameras.
4.2.2.3 Dynamic Message Signs
Dynamic Message Signs (DMS) provide travelers with real-time or advanced notice information for traffic
conditions, roadway incidents, construction, community events, and other alerts. LED signs are most
common and are energy-efficient, bright, and highly legible. Character size and number of lines differ
among manufacturers and signs are capable of multi-colored and graphical displays, providing the City
2017-08-15 Agenda Packet Page 103
Chula Vista Traffic Signal Communications Master Plan Page | 47
with advertisement placement opportunities. Signs can be managed remotely utilizing the traffic systems
communications network. DMS include portable and fixed sign deployments or installations.
Portable DMS are mounted to a trailer with hydraulic lift mechanisms and positioned on the side of a
roadway prior to diversion points or connecting roadways. Portable DMS are self-powered utilizing solar
panels or batteries and the messages are typically changed remotely from the TMC utilizing wireless or
cellular communications. The City currently owns two portable DMS signs that are used exclusively by the
Chula Vista Police Department. Two additional portable DMS signs are recommended for City Traffic
Operations staff use.
Fixed DMS are larger overhead signs that are mounted to a fixed pole and positioned at central areas of
interest to provide the greatest benefit for shared travel information. Fixed DMS utilize a local power
source and can communicate with the TMC through the cable based traffic systems communications
network. It is recommended that the City install fixed DMS signs in advance of freeway ramps and at the
Chula Vista Amphitheater.
Both portable and fixed DMS should be used to share traffic information related, but not limited to:
recurring congestion, traffic incidents, special events, construction, maintenance activities, road closures,
detour routes, etc. To ensure security, rights for device use, including both view and control, should be
assigned to prevent unauthorized access.
4.2.2.4 Demand for Real-Time Data
Future transportation management systems will exchange traffic data with a multitude of independent
and/or integrated mobility applications that will allow travelers and system operators to make informed
decisions. Smartphone applications like, Waze, HERE WeGo, Inrix Traffic, etc. are now connecting to traffic
management systems to exchange data. The data exchange is typically provided through a separate
internet connection at the TMC.
4.2.3 IP Addressing Scheme
Since the future traffic signal communications network devices are going to be IP based, each device in
the network must have at least one IP address. IP addresses are in the form of First Octet. Second Octet.
Third Octet. Fourth Octet. An example IP address is 192.168.1.123. The future IP scheme for the City of
Chula Vista Master Plan is as follows.
• First Octet = ABC.
• Second Octet = XYZ.
• Third octet = Device ID organized by associated hub and location east or west of I-805.
• Fourth Octet = Intersection ID organized by corridor and direction, east to west or north to south.
The IP addressing scheme is provided to the City in a separate document due the sensitivity of the
information.

4.3 Smart City Chula Vista
The City is implementing a vision of a 21st century Smart City that includes building a robust, technically
advanced transportation network that connects the City both geographically and on the information
superhighway. The Master Plan is compatible with Chula Vista’s Smart City initiatives and advances several
Smart Infrastructure applications including: video, lighting, parking, transportation, public transportation
and shuttles, zero emissions vehicles, environmental sensors, and public safety. The ITS improvements
will reduce congestion throughout the City, advance the City’s Climate Action Plan goals, and promote
sustainability.
4.3.1 Automated Vehicle Proving Grounds
In January 2017, the U.S. Department of Transportation (US DOT)
designated 10 Automated Vehicle (AV) proving ground pilot sites to
encourage testing and information sharing for AV technologies across a
variety of climates, entity types, speed zones, and concentration.
SANDAG, Caltrans, and City of Chula Vista were jointly selected in
response to the US DOT pilot program application solicitation2.
The San Diego region has three proving ground environments: the I-15
Express Lanes from SR-163 to SR-78, the SR-125 South Bay Express Way
from East Chula Vista to the United States-Mexico border, and the City
of Chula Vista. The local network of streets and roadways in Chula Vista
will be used as a testbed for AV technology3.
4.3.2 I-805 AcƟve Tra ffic and Demand Management
The City of Chula Vista is a stakeholder in the Active Traffic and Demand Management (ATDM) program
which will be deployed on the I-805 South corridor from SR-94 to the United States-Mexico border. This
heavily-utilized commuter corridor provides access to and from National City, Chula Vista, San Diego, and
beyond. The AT DM project seeks to utilize technology and interagency
communications to optimize and maintain trip reliability, increase
throughput, minimize delay, promote institutional coordination, and
increase technical integration across all modes and jurisdictions.
Travel information will be collected, processed, and shared with
roadway users to enhance planning for timely arrival at destinations.
Twenty-five different ATDMS strategies have been identified in the
ATDM Concept of Operations with deployment categorized by
timeframe: Short Term (1-3 Years), Medium Term (4-7 Years), and
Long Term (8-10 Years). The strategies outlined will be enhanced by
the additional operational functions the City currently has and/or is
2017-08-15 Agenda Packet Page 105
Chula Vista Traffic Signal Communications Master Plan Page | 49
improving including: travel time monitoring on Telegraph Canyon Road and implementation of the new
Adaptive Traffic Signal Control system.
4.3.3 Connected Vehicle Technology
Connected vehicle applications have many benefits including increased roadway safety with the potential
to greatly reduce or eliminate
collisions, improve mobility and
roadway capacity,
environmental sustainability,
and infrastructure management.
Connections between vehicles
and infrastructure (V2I) is a
critical element of the connected
vehicle environment and
requires infrastructure
preparation on the part of public
agencies that own and operate
transportation systems. V2I
deployments have emerged over
the past several years with the most prevalent issued by AASHTO; the National Connected Vehicle Signal
Phase and Timing (SPaT) challenge. The goal of the SPaT challenge is to deploy roadside Dedicated Short
Range Communications (DSRC) radio infrastructure to broadcast SPaT data on at least 1 corridor or street
network in all 50 states by January 20204.
Connected vehicle technology requires reliable, secure, fast communication with low latency that is not
vulnerable to environmental conditions or multipath transmissions, and has wide interoperability. DSRC
is the most standardized and tested connected vehicle communication technology. The FHWA is currently
proposing a mandate for DSRC to be built into all new vehicles by 20225. Other wireless communications
technology alternatives to DSRC have emerged including cellular and cellular hybrid.
The most likely near term (say 5 year) deployment of V2I in the City would be associated with a pilot
demonstration deployment. If connected vehicle technology is mandated by the FHWA to be built into
new vehicles there would be a significant interest on the part of transportation agencies to widely deploy
connected vehicle communications technology in infrastructure. The infrastructure side of the V2I
communication link requires a roadside unit (RSU), compatible traffic signal hardware, and communication
systems. The most limiting factor with connected vehicle technology deployment is cost, both cost to
vehicle manufacturers and transportation infrastructure owners and operators. Opportunities in the form
of federal aid funds will likely become available in the future to deploy these communications systems.

The recommendations made in this Master Plan will support the service requirements of future V2I
network traffic. The communication system architecture concept includes an over provision of bandwidth,
is distributed throughout City, and utilizes NTCIP-complaint hardware and Ethernet communications
protocols for a V2I ready infrastructure platform.
4.3.3.1 Predictive Traffic Signals
Advancements in V2I communications include traffic signal and in-vehicle systems that can utilize SPaT
information to communicate information to the driver. Several in-vehicle information systems and smart
phone applications for predictive traffic signal technology have already been developed and deployed.
Generally, information from traffic signal controllers
and/ or the central traffic management system is
collected and communicated to a third-party data
aggregation provider. SPaT data is processed through
algorithms and predicted traffic signal red or green
state and red times are pushed through an internet
connection, typically cellular communications, to
display in-vehicle or on the driver’s smartphone. This
type of information can enhance the way a motorist
makes decisions when approaching signals based on
the signal state, travel speed, and time. These
features ultimately reduce idling, stop-and-go traffic, pollution, and red-light violation collisions.
Third-party data aggregation providers, such as Traffic Technology Systems (TTS) and Connected Signals,
Inc. have deployed predictive traffic signal technology in cooperation with automotive manufacturers. TTS
is teamed with Audi to deploy an in-dash subscription service which provides a countdown for red lights,
4 second alert before a red-light change, and a heads-up display when a vehicle approaches a signal that
is about to change phases. The agency’s central traffic management system connects to the TTS system
“cloud” to transmit SPaT data. The TTS receives the SPaT data and then sends the predictive information
to the OEM backend system which sends it to the vehicle. This system has been successfully demonstrated
in Las Vegas, NV and active deployments are planned throughout the US6. The City of Chula Vista is
currently considering a partnership agreement with TTS.
Connected Signals developed the EnLighten application to provide predictive traffic signal information for
BMW vehicles through an in-dash subscription service as well as to drivers that do not own compatible
vehicles through their smartphone application. Countdown information is displayed when stopped at a
red light and a chime alert sounds seconds prior to the light turning green. Connected Signals utilizes a
device on the agency premises to connect to the internet and central traffic management system for
receiving SPAT data. The Connected Signals cloud receives the SPaT data and then sends the predictive
information to the user’s smart phone or in-vehicle system. EnLighten is currently available in Portland

and Eugene, Oregon with testing in progress in the City of San Jose in cooperation with BMW and the U.S.
Department of Energy’s Argonne National Laboratory7.
4.3.4 Intelligent Street LighƟng
Networked street lighting control systems reduce costs associated with operating and maintaining street
lights. The City of Chula Vista was the first in the region to implement LED lighting technology Citywide
and is currently working with multiple vendors to install and test street lights, as part of a pilot, with
communication and sensor technologies that create a smart grid street light system. The system can also
be leveraged to capture high-density time-stamped real-time and historical event data, using the Internet
of Things (IoT) cloud storage, for a variety of Smart City applications including vehicle traffic, pedestrian
traffic, and parking. Travel data includes vehicle speed, direction, lane use, volumes, pedestrian activity,
and parking utilization. This information will enable the City of Chula Vista to more accurately:
• Identify recurring traffic, flow issues, high-incident areas, traffic violation patterns.
• Perform more extensive ‘before and after’ analyses to illustrate changes in driver behavior.
• Identify sidewalk and crosswalk utilization to enhance pedestrian safety.
• Develop strategic demand-based parking pricing based on parking usage and vacancy periods.
• Provide better parking enforcement for overstay, no-parking zone, and loading zone violations.
The City of San Diego has recently partnered with Current, powered by GE, to deploy 3,200 sensor nodes
on City street lights to create a multi-application City IoT network. The nodes can perform a variety of
applications including vehicle, pedestrian, and bicycle monitoring, parking availability, air quality sensing,
and gunshot detection. The data from the sensor nodes will be processed and stored on a cloud-based
server. The deployment of the nodes is slated to begin August 2017 and be completed in July 20188.
4.3.5 Advanced Transporta Ɵon Controllers (ATC)
Chula Vista currently uses “Type 170” traffic signal controllers that are built on an old technology platform
with limited processing, memory, program, and communications functionality. These legacy controllers
are incapable of collecting High-Resolution (Hi-Res) controller data required for advanced traffic
measurement and monitoring. The 2070 ATC controller platform will enable collection and reporting of
High-Resolution (Hi-Res) controller data. Industry advancements in Hi-Res data processing provide
multiple ITS-related applications pertaining to autonomous vehicles, connected vehicles, connected
infrastructure, and Smart City technologies. The Intelligent Transportation Systems Joint Program Office
(ITS JPO) has provided research data across all modes for these technologies and has outlined how the
data collected is being used by public and private organizations9.
4.3.6 Future Technology ApplicaƟons
Table 4-1 provides a summary of the various data types and ITS usage applications that the City of Chula
Vista may seek to implement in the future to advance the Smart City Chula Vista vision and increase overall
travel safety and efficiency throughout the City.

5 Implementation Phasing Plan
The existing traffic systems communications network is comprised of numerous network devices and
communications media including fiber optic cable, twisted pair copper wire cable, Serial wireless radios,
and third-party owned leased copper lines, telephone drops, and cellular service. The analog network is
antiquated and incapable of supporting the City’s future ITS technology investments due to limited
communications capacity. Implementing one seamless state-of-the-art communications network capable
of meeting the City’s existing and future traffic system needs requires a strategically phased approach.
The highest priorities include establishing a City-owned traffic signal communication system and
implementing Ethernet-compatible systems/network. The existing analog lease lines generate high
recurring costs and are incapable of serving modern traffic system technology. Existing investments in
communication infrastructure, underground systems, signal interconnect cable, and traffic signal cabinets
will continue to be utilized. Obsolete legacy network equipment will be upgraded or decommissioned and
replaced with new modern communication technologies. Converting existing technologies to Ethernet-
based communications through upgrades is the most cost-effective and rapid deployment approach,
enabling improvements across wider areas.
Implementation of Master Plan recommendations is divided into three phases over a ten-year period.
Deployment for each phase is dependent on availability of funds and accelerated deployment is
advantageous for financial, operational, and management purposes. The City should seek grant funding
and other opportunities to more quickly complete all implementation phases within 5 years.
5.1 Phase 1: City-Owned Infrastructure (Year 1-3)
Phase 1 of the implementation plan includes providing a wholly City-owned traffic signal communication
network, converting from Serial to an all Ethernet-based network, upgrading traffic signal controllers to
Ethernet protocol, and establishing video monitoring at the City’s highest priority locations.
Implementation for Phase 1 is prioritized by proximity to City Hall as well as by street network hierarchy.
The downtown area, closest to City Hall, contains the greatest number of signalized intersections operating
on costly third-party owned leased communications. The traffic signals in this area are spaced close
together and are ideal for implementation of broadband Ethernet wireless radios, which provide cost-
effective and rapid communications deployment. Traffic signal equipment will be upgraded to Ethernet-
enabled devices and Layer 3 communication hubs will be installed at strategic locations. The following
summarizes the Phase 1 traffic signal communications network upgrades:
• Upgrade the existing fiber optic system to Ethernet communications.
• Convert leased copper lines to City-owned wireless Ethernet radio communications.
• Upgrade City-owned copper lines to Ethernet-over-copper communications.
• Install City-owned wireless Ethernet radio communications at all offline traffic signals.
2017-08-15 Agenda Packet Page 110
Chula Vista Traffic Signal Communications Master Plan Page | 54
• Convert the leased cellular network for existing Traffic Measurement Devices to City-owned wireless
Ethernet radio communications.
• Install video monitoring devices at high priority locations.
• Install fixed Dynamic Message Signs approaching the Chula Vista Amphitheater.
• Obtain 2 portable Dynamic Message Signs for use during planned or unforeseen major traffic
impacting events.
• Install a satellite Traffic Management Center at the City’s Traffic Operations Maintenance Facility.
• Upgrade all traffic signal equipment to Ethernet-enabled devices Citywide.
• Implement Layer 3 communication hubs at strategic locations.
A summary of the Phase 1 improvements is illustrated in Figure 5-1.
5.2 Phase 2: Infrastructure and Priority Corridors Upgrade (Year 4-6)
Phase 2 of the Implementation Plan prioritizes fiber optic communications. Existing communications
conduit that has been previously installed throughout Chula Vista will be upgraded to include new fiber
optic cable installations. New conduit and fiber optic cable will be installed to resolve all remaining
communications gaps and create redundancy. Strategic signalized intersections along priority corridors
throughout the City will be upgraded to include type 2070 ATC traffic signal controllers and closed circuit
televisions (CCTV) cameras for remote video monitoring. The following summarizes the Phase 2 traffic
signal communications network upgrades:
• Upgrade existing empty communications conduit and install fiber optic cable.
• Install conduit and fiber optic cable to resolve communications gaps in the network and create
redundant ring topology.
• Upgrade traffic signal equipment on primary fiber optic ring route with fiber devices.
• Upgrade traffic signal equipment on priority corridors with new 2070 ATC controllers and CCTV
cameras.
A summary of the Phase 2 improvements is illustrated in Figure 5-2.
5.3 Phase 3: Citywide Buildout (Year 7-10)
Buildout of the traffic signal communications network will be completed in Phase 3. Remaining signalized
intersections will be upgraded with type 2070 ATC traffic signal controllers and closed-circuit television
(CCTV) cameras for remote video monitoring. Signalized intersections with existing analog video detection
will be upgraded with analog to Ethernet video encoders to enable remote viewing of the video feeds. A
summary of the Phase 3 improvements is illustrated in Figure 5-3.

5.4 Cell Towers
The City owns cell towers throughout Chula Vista that may be utilized for the traffic systems
communications network. The implementation phasing plan does not consider use of the towers and
focuses on cable based and point to point wireless communications. The towers may provide
opportunities to reach areas not easily accessible by cable based systems. The towers could host
broadband wireless and/or cellular radios to close gaps in City-owned infrastructure and/or support future
ITS technology applications. Tower use would be determined on a case-by-case basis in engineering design
phases.
5.5 Long-Term System ConsideraƟons
Additional long-term system considerations are included to provide a more robust and reliable traffic
signal communication network. These improvements are not part of the three-phase implementation plan
but are recommended should additional funding become available. As opportunities arise, new fiber optic
conduit and cable should be installed in place of broadband Ethernet wireless radios and fiber optic
communication media should be installed in addition to the City-owned copper plant. Major signalized
intersections should be upgraded to include stand-alone battery back-up systems, Global Positioning
System (GPS) emergency vehicle preemption (EVP) systems, Ethernet-enabled conflict monitor units
(CMU), and Power Cycle Relay Switches.
Table 5-1 Long-Term System Improvement Order of Magnitude Costs

Breakout SMFOC Cable $2/LF
Fiber Optic Vault $2,500/Each
Splice Closure $2,000/Each

Standalone Battery Back-Up System $5,000 /Intersection
GPS based Emergency Vehicle Preemption System $10,000 /Intersection
Ethernet-Enabled Conflict Monitor Unit $1,000/Intersection
Power Cycle Relay Switch $800/Intersection
Adaptive Traffic Signal Deployment $25,000/Intersection
5.6 Fiber OpƟc CommunicaƟon Rings Topology
Fiber optic conduit and cable will be installed during the various implementation plan phases to complete
a redundant and self-healing fiber optic communication rings topology around the City. Primary rings, the
fiber optic backbone of the communication network, will connect the TMC at City Hall to major roadways
throughout Chula Vista including Eastlake Parkway, Fourth Avenue, H Street, L Street, Lane Avenue, Main
Street, Olympic Parkway, Orange Avenue, Otay Lakes Road, Proctor Valley Road, and Telegraph Canyon
2017-08-15 Agenda Packet Page 115
Chula Vista Traffic Signal Communications Master Plan Page | 59
Road. A secondary ring will provide redundant and robust communications to the future Smart Bayfront
area. Linear branches will connect the remaining traffic signals throughout the City to the fiber optic
communications network via primary and/or secondary rings. Future development projects that include
new traffic signal and roadway improvements should implement new fiber optic communications
infrastructure and connect to the rings topology. Future fiber associated with planned development
projects, as previously discussed in Section 3 should also connect to the rings topology and be
implemented by the Developer per City guidance. The following recommendations are provided for all
future fiber optic cable deployments, including existing conduit and new conduit installations:
• Primary rings should be a minimum 144-strand of single-mode fiber optic cable.
• Secondary ring should be a minimum 72-strand single-mode fiber optic cable.
• Linear branches should be a minimum of 36-strand single-mode fiber optic cable.
• Local drop connections, for fiber MFED connections, should be a 12-strand single-mode fiber optic
cable.
The fiber optic communications ring topology is depicted in Figure 5-4. Buildout of the future traffic
systems communications network is summarized in Appendix F.

Grand Total $15,836,325
The order of magnitude cost estimate for the Master Plan implementation is $15,836,325. The quantities
in the estimate were obtained using information from the GIS database and aerial photography. Quantities
for conduit were increased by 10% and fiber optic cable by 25% to account for unknown factors. This cost
includes a construction contingency of 25% and soft costs such as engineering, project management, and
construction management. The breakdown for each phase and item number is included in Appendix E.
The goal of the Master Plan is to provide a citywide fiber optic communications network with state-of-the-
art traffic signal communications devices and systems. Financial constraints typically necessitate partial
phase implementation. If funding is limited, the focus should start at the TMC and move outward.
Intersections along major corridors should be prioritized first before implementing upgrades to
intersections on less critical streets.
5.8 ConnecƟon to City FaciliƟes
Establishing a citywide fiber optic traffic signal communication system provides opportunities to connect
other facilities throughout the City. These include City Hall, police stations, fire stations, libraries, and parks.
The facilities can be connected to the fiber optic network individually as the system expands to adjacent
corridors and intersections. The integration of the facilities by phase are shown in Figure 5-6. A cost
estimate for the deployment of facility connections is shown in Table 5-6 below.

5.9 Funding Sources
The City of Chula Vista’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP) budget for traffic signal and street related
projects is primarily supported by the Transportation Sales Tax (TransNet) and Gas Tax. The City’s
Transportation Development Impact fees and Transportation grants from the Active Transportation
Program (ATP) and Federal Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) also provide funding. Potential
funding sources for the City’s Traffic Signal Communications Master Plan are identified in the following.
5.9.1 TransportaƟon Sales Tax (TransNet)
Established in 1988, the Transportation Sales Tax (TransNet)
is a half-cent sales tax collected by the State of California
that is dedicated to transportation improvements in the San
Diego region. The program was extended in 2008 for 40 years for $14 billion. The regional metropolitan
planning agency, San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG), allocates funds to municipalities
within San Diego County and supports highway, transit, and local street improvements. SANDAG
administers funds, as determined by the SANDAG Board of Directors, based on the locally adopted
Regional Transportation Plan (RTP), which is updated every three years1. Majority approval from the
SANDAG Board of Directors and identification of need, as demonstrated in this document, is required to
commit TransNet revenue for future deployment of Traffic Signal Communications Master Plan projects.
5.9.2 General Use Sales Tax
Measure P, a temporary half-cent general use sales tax, was approved by voters in Chula Vista. The tax
went into effect April 1, 2017 and is expected to generate about $160 million over a 10-year period to
repair, replace, and update failing/obsolete City infrastructure including streets, storm drains, public safety
equipment, and parks. The tax revenue will be part of the City’s General Fund and a citizen oversight
committee will be responsible for annual spending plans, accounting, and advising2.
5.9.3 Gas Tax
Voters approved Proposition 42, utilizing sales tax on fuel to provide funding for City street improvements.
These funds have primarily served to augment the City’s annual pavement rehabilitation efforts but has
also included street reconstruction projects3.
5.9.4 Development Impact Fees (DIF)
Development Impact Fees (DIF) are collected to mitigate the impact of new development to maintain
existing levels of services throughout the community.
5.9.4.1 Transportation Development Impact Fee (TDIF)
The City of Chula Vista Transportation Development Impact Fee (TDIF) Program was established in 1988
and collects development impact fees to be used for constructing transportation facilities to accommodate
increased traffic generated by new development within the City’s eastern territories4.
2017-08-15 Agenda Packet Page 121
Chula Vista Traffic Signal Communications Master Plan Page | 65
5.9.4.2 Traffic Signal Fee
The City’s Traffic Signal Fee is a trip-based development impact fee associated with the issuance of building
permits for new construction. This fee can be utilized for the installation and upgrade of traffic signals
throughout the City, including traffic signal modifications and pedestrian improvements5.
5.9.5 City General Funds/Capital Improvement Program
The City of Chula Vista’s proposed budget for fiscal year (FY) 2017-2018 includes a CIP budget of
$73,871,967 for capital improvement projects citywide. The forecasted five-year CIP program budget is
estimated at $133,310,588. The FY 17/18 CIP budget is larger than typical due to Measure P funds. Table
5-7 provides a summary of forecasted CIP budgets6. However, the CIP budgets are subject to change based
on new grant opportunities and/or additional Measure P funds.
Table 5-7 FY 17/18-FY 21/22 Forecasted CIP Budget
FY 17/18 FY 18/19 FY 19/20 FY 20/21 FY 21/22 TOTAL
$73,871,967 $15,846,025 $16,265,806 $15,052,802 $12,273,988 $133,310,588
Roadway infrastructure is a major investment of the CIP funds with the bulk allocated to street
repairs and other hardscape improvements. To achieve funding for the improvements identified
by the Master Plan, a prioritization and recommendation for adoption in the next fiscal year CIP
budget and/or as a reassignment of funds in the current fiscal year’s budget is necessary.
5.9.6 Grant OpportuniƟes
Grant opportunities for various types of transportation and roadway related infrastructure improvements
are available. The most applicable grants for funding the Master Plan improvements are as follows:
5.9.6.1 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Funds
The City receives annual Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds for community development
activities, including capital improvement projects. The bulk of the funds are allotted to the completion of
the Castle Park Infrastructure Projects however, approximately $300,000-$500,000 are available for other
capital improvement projects, including roadway related projects, annually for the next 14 years 7.
5.9.6.2 Advanced Transportation and Congestion Management Technologies Deployment (ATCMTD)
The Fixing America’s Surface Transportation Act (FAST Act) established the Advanced Transportation and
Congestion Management Technologies Deployment Grant Program to develop model deployment sites for
large scale installation and operation of advanced transportation technologies. The goal of the program is
to improve safety, efficiency, system performance, and infrastructure return-on-investment. Funds are
obtained through the Highway Research and Development, Technology and Innovation Deployment, and
Intelligent Transportation System Research Programs and $60 million dollars is authorized for each fiscal
2017-08-15 Agenda Packet Page 122
Chula Vista Traffic Signal Communications Master Plan Page | 66
year from 2016 to 2020. It is recommended that the City apply for future grant funding opportunities for
innovative transportation technologies identified in the Master Plan that meet the required criteria8.
5.9.6.3 Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP)
The Map-21 Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) is a
data-driven strategic approach to improving highway safety on all
public roads. Performance-based, this program achieves a
significant reduction in traffic fatalities and serious injuries on all
public roadways. A highway safety improvement project is any
strategy, activity, or project on a public road that is consistent with the data-driven State Strategic Highway
Safety Plan (SHSP) and corrects or improves a hazardous road location or feature or addresses a highway
safety problem9. It is recommended that the City apply for HSIP funding as improvements recommended
in the Master Plan qualify for the grant. Also notable is the staff time required to apply for and administer
the grant. Additionally, funding matches by the City may be required dependent on project improvements.
5.9.7 Assembly Bill 1447
Assembly Bill 1447 was passed on August 20, 2014 and clarifies that synchronization projects can qualify
for money raised by the California Cap-and-Trade program, which seeks to cut greenhouse gas emissions.
The carbon marketplace has generated approximately $5 billion in revenue since initiated in 201210. The
Cap-and-Trade program money is held by the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund. The Master Plan
improvements qualify for funding through this legislation with the recommended technology being proven
to reduce Green House Gasses (GHG’s). As the process for administering these funds for traffic
synchronization projects is determined, the City should present Master Plan improvements for funding.
5.9.8 Partnerships
Rising demand for high speed communication has increased the rate of telecommunication installation
and upgrades in both the public and private sectors. Utilizing partnerships with interested parties could
advance the Master Plan build. Each entity is unique and the best approach to partnering will depend on
the factors involved.
5.9.8.1 Public-Private Partnership
As private companies and public agencies expand their telecommunication networks in Chula Vista, there
may be opportunities for the City or private company to partner and cost share the installation and
expansion of network infrastructure. The City should develop a policy to review planned installations of
utilities within the City and cross reference the Master Plan for overlapping locations or additional routes
for redundancy.
It is important that the City maintain control over its facility. Maintenance access, expansion, and future
allocations require as high a degree as possible of physical separation. Order of precedence for
infrastructure installation through public-private partnerships is as follows:
2017-08-15 Agenda Packet Page 123
Chula Vista Traffic Signal Communications Master Plan Page | 67
• Install City-owned conduit, vaults, and cable. This is most desirable and most expensive and unless
associated with new construction can be cost prohibitive.
• Install separate cable in shared conduit and separate splice enclosures.
• Install shared cable and for proper segregation and maintenance of the system the minimum
granularity of fiber designated for City allocation should be 12 (a complete buffer tube).
• If existing cable and limited fiber strands designate a minimum of 4 fibers for the City.
• The least desirable arrangement is sharing the same fiber with non-City entities.
Development projects should be conditioned to implement communication systems infrastructure as part
of the overall facilities improvement requirements. This includes communications ducts, cable, splice
vaults, and connectivity to City facilities.
5.9.8.1.1 Small Cell Networks
The telecommunications industry is utilizing small cell networks to expand
wireless carrier network coverage and increase capacity for both voice and
data across new generation mobile phone technology and Wi-Fi networks.
In comparison to traditional cell towers, small cell networks utilize smaller
nodes that require lower power and cover smaller areas. Increased node
density enables larger coverage areas with more capacity than a
traditional cell tower can provide. Nodes are installed on existing
infrastructure such as telephone poles or street lights and connected to a central hub by fiber optic cable.
This provides local agencies with opportunities to partner with private companies and receive
infrastructure improvements in exchange for furthering current telecommunications company pursuits.
For example, an agency could allow installation of nodes on City-owned street lights and fiber optic cable
in City right-of-way in exchange for City-owned conduit and fiber optic cable installed by the private
company. Different agreements of different magnitudes, such as full-funding or shared-cost partnerships,
can be made. Small cell network partnerships can provide a good opportunity for an agency to obtain
needed infrastructure at reduced costs outside of the CIP process.
5.9.8.2 Public-Public Partnerships
Like public-private partnerships there are opportunities to construct communications infrastructure
through public-public partnerships. These would be interdepartmental projects within the City with Parks/
Recreation, Wastewater, IT, Police/Fire, and Public Works. These would also be regional or adjacent agency
projects such as SANDAG, Caltrans, MTS, Port of San Diego, and the City of San Diego. Any construction
that requires opening a trench in the public Right-of-Way is an opportunity for the City to have a conduit
and vaults installed at no cost or a shared cost since the cost of construction is already incurred.
Additionally, existing and future street lighting system conduit should also be considered for establishing
communications to traffic signals, other City Departments, and/or for Smart City initiatives.

5.10 Procurement and Delivery Methods
The City of Chula Vista’s traffic signal communications system procurement choices impact deployment
effectiveness and Return on Investment (ROI). Procurement and delivery methods include: best value
procurement, design-bid-build, design-build, and system manager-integrator. The challenge associated
with choosing the optimum procurement and delivery method lies in tailoring the specific work into bid
packages and projects that achieve balance in technical complexity, system quality, cost savings, and
deployment schedule. Many of the Master Plan systems are able to be deployed incrementally by system
as well as all at once by a given area or group of areas. Contracting options are as follows:
5.10.1 Best Value Procurement
The Best Value Procurement process includes an analysis of technical alternatives to identify potential new
systems that flow into a set of system requirements, becoming a technical specification. These technical
specifications are incorporated into the “best-value” bid packages for equipment procurement. This
typically results in reduced pricing as vendors compete with one other for equipment purchase
agreements directly with the agency rather than through a contractor. The best value bid packages and
equipment purchase agreements enable rapid system procurement of desired elements, ultimately
benefiting the schedule significantly in comparison to typical bid advertisement processes. The systems
can be installed and integrated by agency staff, the agency’s on-call consultant firm, and/or a contract
maintenance company11.
5.10.2 Design-Bid-Build
Design–Bid–Build (D-B-B) is the traditional project delivery method where the agency contracts with
separate entities for the design and construction of a project. The three main phases that occur
sequentially during the D-B-B method include: design phase, bidding phase, and construction12. This
delivery method can be used effectively to deploy physical Master Plan components such as
communications infrastructure (conduit systems, fiber optic cable, pull boxes, etc.), foundations, and
structure. However, it may not be suited for ITS projects involving software development, computer
hardware, system integration, and system configuration. This method may be counterproductive for ITS
applications as they cannot be effectively separated into design and construction services. The lowest bid
may result in a contractor that is incapable of performing the required ITS-related services.
5.10.3 Design-Build
The Design–Build (D–B) project delivery method includes the contract of design and construction services
by a single entity known as the design-build contractor. This contrasts from the Design-Bid-Build project
delivery method in that the Design-Build utilizes a single point of contract responsibility, minimizing risks
for the project owner and reducing the delivery schedule by overlapping the design and construction
phases of the project. One single contract is awarded to a design-build team who is responsible for13:
• System engineering, design, and specifications.
2017-08-15 Agenda Packet Page 125
Chula Vista Traffic Signal Communications Master Plan Page | 69
• Procurement and provision of all products, systems, and services.
• Construction of all system elements.
• Testing, inspection, and integration of various subsystems.
Proceeding with the Design-Build project delivery method depends on agency policy and implementation
timelines, and well-defined functional specifications. Project costs associated with D-B delivery method
are typically higher due to the contractor taking on greater responsibility. This method may also result in
engineering decisions being influenced by the builder in a contest of best design versus cost.
5.10.4 System Manager – Integrator
The System Manager-Integrator (SM-I) delivery method includes a consultant, under an engineering and
design services contract, that performs or oversees the performance of all system/project engineering,
design, interface, integration, and configuration functions while one or more contractors, under a
construction contract, performs all related construction activities. This project delivery method combines
design and implementation of work components under one contract including: testing, integration,
configuration, and procurement support. These components of work are the most complex and require
advanced expertise but are typically small in terms of total project costs. The System Manager-Integrator
services are procured based on qualifications which enables the agency to have a high degree of control
through a single point of management 14.
5.11 Master Plan Cost and Benefit Analysis
Implementation of the Master Plan is an investment in traffic systems technology that will improve traffic
management, promote an environment for economic growth, and increase quality of life for Chula Vista
residents. Implementation phasing costs, travel time, fuel, and emissions benefits were analyzed and a
significant return on investment was identified.
5.11.1 Master Plan Costs
The annual Master Plan investment is summarized by phase in Table 5-8 and on Figure 5-6. Phase 1
prioritizes City-owned communications infrastructure and ITS elements including CCTV cameras, fixed and
portable CMS’s, and a Sattelite TMC at the City’s Traffic Signal Maintenance facility. Phase 2 upgrades
twisted pair copper in existing conduit and wireless communications to fiber optic communications and
upgrades priority corridors with the 2070 ATC controller platform and CCTV cameras. Phase 3 upgrades
remaining signals to the 2070 ATC platform and converts analog video detection to Ethernet. ITS elements
for Phase 3 also include CCTV cameras.

5.11.3 Cost EffecƟveness
Based on the cost-effectiveness methodology presented above, the resulting annual benefit-cost ratio for
implementing Phase 1 is 65:1. This indicates that improvements would yield benefits of $65 dollars for
every $1 dollar spent. With cost savings exceeding the State and National benefit-cost ratio range of 20 to
60:1 ROI for Phase 1 alone, the monetary investments identified in the Master Plan are poised to be
recaptured many times over for both economic and social benefit.
5.11.4 Master Plan Maintenance
The Master Plan maps should be kept updated every 6 months to reflect changes in the system topology
and architecture. This will require transfer of the GIS files developed for the Master Plan and coordination
with the City’s Information Technology Services GIS group. A full review and update of the Master Plan
should take place every 5 years as an addendum to the original document.

DISCUSSION
Trash Amendments refer to amendments to the Water Quality Control Plan for Ocean Waters of
California (Ocean Plan) and Part 1 Trash Provisions of the Water Quality Control Plan for Inland
Surface Waters, Enclosed Bays, and Estuaries of California (ISWEBE Plan), adopted April 2015 and
approved by California Office of Administrative Law (OAL) and the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency (U.S. EPA) in December 2015 and January 2016, respectively.
On June 2, 2017, the San Diego Regional Water Quality Control Board (“RWQCB”) issued Order
number R9-2017-007 (“Trash Order”), effectively prohibiting discharges of trash from the Municipal
Separate Storm Sewer System (“MS4”) to surface waters and required reporting related to trash
controls. The City of Chula Vista (City), as well as the other 20 Copermittees must decide between
two compliance paths (Track 1 or Track 2) and implement “full capture” of trash in Priority Land Use
Areas by 2028.
Priority Land Use areas (commercial, industrial, high density residential, public transportation, and
“mixed urban”) are deemed to have elevated trash generation rates. The City has identified
approximately 1,800 storm drain inlets subject to this Order within Priority Land Use Areas
(Attachment 1).
Track 1 requires the installation and maintenance of certified structural devices, see Attachment 2,
(“full capture systems”) on all storm drains that capture runoff from Priority Land Use Areas.
Maintenance of the devices includes periodic cleaning using hand tools or Vactor equipment to
remove the trash and debris collected in the storm drain inlets. Compliance with Track 1
requirements is achieved when the City has demonstrated annually the installation, operation, and
maintenance of full capture systems and provides mapped location and drainage area served by full
capture systems.
Track 2 requires a combination of certified structural devices where feasible and programmatic
controls (e.g. catch basin cleaning, street sweeping, trash receptacle programs) to capture all trash
generated from Priority Land Use areas (“full capture equivalence”). Compliance with Track 2
requirements is achieved when the City has, “Developed and implemented a set of monitoring
objectives that demonstrate mandated performance results, effectiveness of the selected
combination of treatment and institutional controls, and compliance with full capture system
equivalency.
In preparation for the expected Trash Order, on August 02, 2016, by Resolution 2016-156, City
Council approved a contract with D-Max Engineering, Inc. to prepare Trash Amendments Baseline
Assessment Report (“Baseline Report”). D-max completed a preliminary evaluation of different
compliance scenarios considering data from Public Works, Engineering, Geographic Information
Systems, and Economic Development Departments, and submitted a final Baseline Report dated
June 19, 2017 (Attachment 3).
A 20-year planning horizon was considered by D-Max, along with six scenarios from Track 1 and
Track 2 (Table 10 of Attachment 2). Overall, Track 1 scenarios had higher total costs than Track 2
scenarios. The distribution of costs also differs between tracks, with a much larger proportion of costs
required to cover monitoring, reporting, and program management under Track 2. Table 1 below is anCity of Chula Vista Printed on 8/10/2017Page 2 of 5

required to cover monitoring, reporting, and program management under Track 2. Table 1 below is an
overview comparison of the two compliance Tracks.
TABLE 1 - Track 1 and Track 2 Cost Summary
Track 1 Track 2
Year 0 (FY17-18)$70K $180K
Year 1-5 average cost $680K - 800K $390K - 430K
Year 6-10 average cost $1.1M - 1.4M $630K - 920K
Total 10-Year
Implementation Cost (Year
10 is full compliance)

$8.2M - 12.1M $5.8M - 6.9M
Total 20-Year Program Cost $17.7M - 22.7M $10.9M - 13.6M
The San Diego RWQCB has indicated that it will be acceptable for a city to initially select a Track 2
approach and then later switch to a Track 1 approach. This strategy might be desirable if, for
example, after implementing the first few years of a Track 2 program, the City finds that its
nonstructural BMP efforts turn out to be less effective or more costly than anticipated. Switching from
Track 2 to Track 1 in year 5 will cost an average of $1.1M - 1.4M per year in years 6-10. The total 20
-year cost for switching Tracks is $15.7M - 21.2M.
The Trash Order requires the City to notify the San Diego RWQCB of the selected compliance track
by no later than September 5, 2017. It also requires the City to submit implementation maps, time
schedules and (if applicable) compliance plans by December 3, 2018. These requirements will be
incorporated into the San Diego Region’s MS4 Permit during 2018 as part of the 5-year permit
renewal process.
Based upon an analysis of the two tracks, staff is recommending that the San Diego RWQCB be
notified that the City is selecting the Track 2 approach to comply with the Trash Amendment
Investigative Order (IO) No. R9-2017-0077.
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 Title 2, section
18702.2(a)(11), is not applicable to this decision for purposes of determining a disqualifying real
property-related financial conflict of interest under the Political Reform Act (Cal. Gov't Code § 87100,
et seq.).
Staff is not independently aware, and has not been informed by any City Council member, of any
other fact that may constitute a basis for a decision maker conflict of interest in this matter.
LINK TO STRATEGIC GOALS
The City’s Strategic Plan has five major goals: Operational Excellence, Economic Vitality, Healthy
Community, Strong and Secure Neighborhoods and a Connected Community. Authorizing the City

Community, Strong and Secure Neighborhoods and a Connected Community. Authorizing the City
Manager or his Designee to notify the San Diego Regional Water Quality Control Board of the Track
Selected supports Operational Excellence as it allows the City to comply with the Trash Amendment
Investigative Order No. R9-2017-0077 within its jurisdictions.
CURRENT YEAR FISCAL IMPACT
If Track 2 compliance is approved by City Council, City must prepare and submit an Implementation
Plan to the San Diego RWQCB by December 03, 2018. Funds to cover preparing and submitting the
Implementation Plan is available in the Engineering & Capital Projects budget for Fiscal Year 2017-
2018. Therefore, no appropriation is required.
ONGOING FISCAL IMPACT
Funds to cover the remaining costs ($110,000) for preparing and submitting the Implementation Plan
will be budgeted as part of the Engineering & Capital Projects budget for FY2018-2019. In addition,
the estimated funds required for covering the Trash Amendment implementation program will be
programmed as part of the Engineering & Capital Projects and Public Works Operations
Departments budgets for Fiscal Years 2018-2019 through 2028-2029 as part of the normal budget
process as outlined in the Table 3 below. Funding has not been identified and may result in
additional fiscal impacts to the General Fund budget which will be reflected in the updated Long-Term
Financial forecast.

Trash Amendments Baseline Assessment
Page 4
1. Background
In April 2015, the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) adopted Amendments to the
Water Quality Control Plan for Ocean Waters of California (Ocean Plan) as well as the Water
Quality Control Plan for Inland Surface Waters, Enclosed Bays, and Estuaries (ISWEBE Plan) –
collectively referred to as the “Trash Amendments.”
The Trash Amendments provide two “tracks” that the City of Chula Vista (City) may select from
to pursue compliance:
Track 1: The City must install and maintain “full capture devices” in its MS4 to capture
trash in runoff from all “priority land uses” in the City’s jurisdiction.
Track 2: The City must use a combination of full capture devices and other structural
and non-structural BMPs to achieve an overall trash load reduction equivalent to what
would be achieved in the Track 1 approach.
The Trash Amendments are statewide regulations, but the actual mandate to comply with the
Trash Amendments was a 13383 Order (No. R9-2017-0077) issued by the San Diego Regional
Water Quality Control Board (Regional Board). This order dictates the timeline for the City to
make its decision between Track 1 and Track 2 and to submit initial trash program
documentation to the Regional Board. The compliance timeline is shown in Table 1.

2. Purpose
The purpose of this baseline assessment is to provide the City with information to make an
informed decision between a Track 1 and a Track 2 approach. The largest component of this
effort involves identifying the BMPs, both structural and non-structural, needed to achieve
compliance under each Track and then developing planning-level estimates of the quantities
and associated costs. Additionally, this assessment includes information on differences in the
anticipated compliance confidence associated with each Track. Furthermore, the City is also
2017-08-15 Agenda Packet Page 164
City of Chula Vista
Trash Amendments Baseline Assessment
Page 5
obligated to meet trash-related goals set forth in the San Diego Bay Watershed Management
Area Water Quality Improvement Plan (WQIP). Since there may be significant programmatic
overlap in achieving compliance with both the Trash Amendments and the WQIP, this report
also provides an assessment of how each Track option will affect the City’s compliance with
trash-related WQIP goals.
3. Identification of Priority Land Use Areas and Affected Inlets
3.1 Priority Land Use Identification
The Statewide Trash Amendments require the City to address trash in Priority Land Use (PLU)
areas or equivalent alternative land use areas via full capture devices (Track 1) or to implement
BMPs throughout the City to address the amount of trash equivalent to the amount generated in
PLU areas (Track 2). As such, the first step for assessing compliance options is to determine
the extent of the PLUs within the City’s jurisdiction. PLU areas include:
• High-density residential (≥10 dwelling units per acre),
• Industrial,
• Commercial,
• Mixed urban (combination of high-density residential, industrial, and commercial), and
• Public transportation stations.
A land use analysis was performed using the most recent land use GIS data provided by the
City. The 391 discrete land use categories present within boundaries of the City were compared
to the definitions of the five PLUs designated in the Trash Amendments to determine which land
uses and parcels fall within the PLU definitions. The analysis resulted in the designation of 261
of the land uses within the dataset as PLUs under the Trash Amendments. The City land use
categories do not match up exactly with the definition of high-density residential land use in the
Trash Amendments (i.e. ≥10 dwelling units per acre). Therefore, for several of the residential
land use categories, a GIS analysis was performed to calculate the number of dwelling units per
acre. An updated summary of the PLUs within the City’s jurisdiction is provided in Table 2 and
the final estimated PLU areas within the City are illustrated in Figure A-1 of Appendix A. Note
that while the portion of the City that lies east of I-805 contributes a larger amount of total PLU
area, that side of the City is significantly larger overall and the ratio of PLU to non-PLU areas is
actually higher on the west side of I-805.
The City conducted a thorough review of the identified PLUs and the assumptions used during
the identification process. Detailed information about the PLUs and the assumptions utilized in
developing the City’s PLUs is provided in Appendix A.

3.1.1 Identification of Affected Inlets
Under a Track 1 compliance approach, full capture trash control devices are required to be
installed at storm drain structures that receive runoff from PLUs. GIS analysis was used to
identify storm drain structures that receive runoff from PLUs. A total of 2,662 such inlet
structures, herein referred to as “PLU inlets,” were identified. These locations are mapped in
Figure A-1 of Appendix A.
3.2 Pilot Investigation of Alternative Priority Land Use Area
The Trash Amendments also allow a municipality to select alternative land use areas that differ
from the specified PLU categories. Exact areas for potential alternative PLUs were not
identified during discussions with the City, so no alternative PLU areas were incorporated into
this baseline study. However, the City expressed interest in exploring this option further.
Therefore, a pilot-level investigation was conducted to visually assess the amounts of trash
found in specific PLU and non-PLU areas of the City and assesses the feasibility of utilizing
alternative PLU areas in the future. The investigation is discussed in Appendix B.
4. Full Capture System Equivalency Options
In order to develop a compliance approach estimate for the funding needed under a Track 2
approach, an estimate of a full capture system equivalency (FCSE) value is needed. FCSE is a
trash load reduction target the City would need to meet through implementation of a
combination of programmatic, operational, and structural controls. Achievement of the FCSE
target demonstrates compliance with the Trash Amendments.
The Trash Amendments provide two examples of approaches to determine FCSE: (1) a trash
capture rate approach and (2) a reference approach. Both methods rely on measuring or
otherwise quantifying the amount of trash captured by full capture devices to establish a
baseline value.

4.1 General Approach
The method used to quantify trash generation was based on a literature review but it also allows
for future refinement based on results from pilot studies, such as the efforts currently underway
by the County of San Diego to monitor area-specific trash generation.
A literature review was conducted, which focused on four trash generation studies completed
within the United States: two in California1,2and two in Maryland3. The studies were compared
and analyzed for relevance to the City. A comparison of the studies is presented in Table A-4 of
Appendix A.
These studies were used to determine the trash generation rates (TGRs) associated with PLU
classifications as defined by the Trash Amendments. The literature review was used to
determine a series of metrics correlated with TGRs. A geospatial analysis using median
household income and population density data from the 2010 Census was conducted to
evaluate and characterize these metrics for each of the four study cities. Then, regression was
used to determine the best fit model between the derived metrics and the literature TGRs to
isolate the best predictor of TGRs for each category of PLU.
The TGRs obtained as described above were based on the best available trash generation data
from the literature. However, since none of the available studies characterized trash generation
rates within the San Diego region, the County of San Diego’s Regional Trash Generation Rate
Study will provide valuable region-specific data upon its completion, which is scheduled for fall
2017. If this study finds that trash generation rates in San Diego County are significantly
different than in the areas from the literature study, this region-specific trash generation data
could be incorporated into the model in the future.
4.2 Full Capture System Equivalency
After the literature review and model development, it was determined that the metric that
provided the best fit for the published TGRs for commercial and industrial land uses was the
ratio of Median Household Income (MHI) to Population Density. For high density residential
PLUs, the best fit model was obtained using the MHI and population density from census blocks
with greater than or equal to 10 households, as High Density Residential is defined by the Trash
Amendments. TGRs for mixed urban and public transportation station PLUs were not
represented in the available literature, and thus, were derived from the average of the
Commercial, Industrial, and High Density Residential Trash Generation Rates. In order to
calculate the FCSE for the City at this stage, the TGR model was applied to the census metrics
associated with each individual PLU parcel, generating a range of TGRs throughout the City,
see Figure 1. Following the literature, TGRs are expressed in units of gallons per acre per year.
The TGRs were multiplied by the acreage for each parcel and PLU combination. The trash
generated per year in gallons was converted into tons per year, and then the weight of trash in
tons generated per parcel was summed for each category of PLU (Table 3).

5. Track 1 Assessment
5.1 Structural BMP Types
Under a Track 1 approach, the City would be required to install full capture devices in storm
drain structures conveying runoff from all the PLU areas in its jurisdiction. Based on full capture
devices commonly implemented in other regions of the state, the BMPs in the table below were
selected:
Table 4. BMP types used in primary Track 1 assessment
BMP Type Description Example Photo
Connector Pipe Screen (CPS)
CPS manufactured by
StormTek was used in cost
calculations
Can be installed in catch
basins and clean outs. Bolted
in front of the outlet pipe.
Curb inlet style drainage insert
The Round Curb Inlet
Basket (R-GISB)
manufactured by Bio Clean
was used in cost
calculations.
Can capture trash entering
through a curb inlet. Basket
can be positioned below
manhole opening for ease of
maintenance.
Drainage Insert (grate inlet
style)
The Grate Inlet Skimmer
Box (GISB) manufactured
by Bio Clean was used in
cost calculations
Typically installed in smaller
catch basins with grated
inlets. Usually more frequent
maintenance than CPS.
Automatic Retractable Screen
(ARS)
ARS manufactured by
United Stormwater was
used in cost calculations
Installed at curb inlets.
ARS is not a full capture
device. However, when used
in conjunction with a CPS, the
ARS keeps debris out of the
drain and allows it to be
picked up by street sweeping,
thus reducing the required
maintenance frequency for
CPS.

Trash Amendments Baseline Assessment
Page 11
Other larger BMPs such as Bio Clean Nutrient Separating Baffle Boxes and Contech CDS units,
are also considered full capture devices when sized properly. While having higher capital costs
than the smaller BMPs in the table above, they can have lower long term maintenance costs
since a single large unit can be installed in place of several smaller individual-drain BMPs, thus
reducing the number of BMPs requiring maintenance. It is often assumed that the savings in
annual maintenance costs will result in these larger BMPs being more cost effective in the long
term. However, in site-specific analyses performed by the consultant team in other
municipalities, this assumption was not supported. Site specific investigations demonstrated
that 1) the high installation costs of the large BMPs combined with 2) limitations on the number
of smaller upstream BMPs that could be replaced by each large unit, resulted in higher total 20-
year costs for the large BMPs. Additional detail on these findings is provided in Appendix C.
Based on the findings regarding large BMP costs, this baseline assessment did not include a
city-wide assessment of a Track 1 scenario using these large BMPs. However, full
assessments of four different Track 1 scenarios using smaller individual-drain BMPs were
performed:
Scenario 1A: CPS with ARS. In this scenario, full capture devices will be installed at
all public PLU inlets and at locations in public storm drains downstream of all private
PLU inlets. These inlets will be equipped with CPS in most instances and with grate
inlet style drainage inserts (GISB) in the small number of inlets where CPS cannot be
used. ARS will also be installed at all public curb inlets with a CPS.
Scenario 1B: CPS without ARS. This scenario is identical to the CPS with ARS
Scenario except that no ARS units will be used.
Scenario 1C: Curb Inlet Baskets. In this scenario, curb inlet baskets (R-GISB) rather
than CPS will be installed at public PLU curb inlets. No ARS will be used. Cost
calculations were based on the assumption that all inlets projected as having a CPS with
ARS in Scenario 1A would instead have a curb inlet basket with no ARS in Scenario 1C.
CPS will still be used for locations downstream of private PLU inlets, and CPS or GISB
will still be used for a small number of public inlets where curb inlet baskets cannot be
used.
Scenario 1D: Downstream Locations. This scenario is based on the assumption that
the City would be able to identify key storm drain junction locations where a single CPS
could be used to collect trash from multiple upstream public PLU inlets. This scenario
requires fewer total BMPs, but it is assumed more frequent maintenance will be required
due to the increased average drainage area of each BMP. ARS will be installed at all
public PLU curb inlets in this scenario.
5.2 Scenarios 1A through 1C
In Scenarios 1A, 1B, and 1C, one full capture device is installed in each public PLU inlet. The
type of device depends on the scenario and on the type of inlet structure, as indicated in the
attributes of the SW_Junction GIS layer provided by the City. For example, some drainage
structures can accommodate either a CPS or curb inlet basket, so they would have a CPS
installed in Scenarios 1A and 1B and a curb inlet basket in Scenario 1C. Conversely, a small,
square grated inlet can only accommodate a GISB, so it would have that BMP in all three
scenarios.
Approximately half of the identified PLU inlets are privately owned, but the City does not have
legal authority to require private property owners to install BMPs in these drains. Therefore, full
capture devices would be installed in public storm drain structures downstream of these private
2017-08-15 Agenda Packet Page 171
City of Chula Vista
Trash Amendments Baseline Assessment
Page 12
PLU inlets. Since site specific feasibility analyses would be required to determine the exact
locations where these devices could be installed, for the purposes of this baseline study, a GIS
analysis was performed to determine an estimate of the number of full capture devices that
would be needed to intercept flows from all private PLU inlets. This was done by identifying all
the locations where a privately owned storm drain pipe within a PLU connected directly to a
downstream publicly owned junction, plus all locations where a private PLU inlet connected
directly to a downstream publicly owned pipe. This resulted in an estimate of 365 full capture
devices that would be needed to intercept flows from 1195 private PLU inlets. It was also
assumed that these 365 full capture devices would all be CPS since runoff would likely be
conveyed to the public structure via a pipe, making it infeasible to use GISB and curb inlet
baskets to capture trash. Since these CPS would tend to receive flows from multiple upstream
inlets, a higher required maintenance frequency was assumed for these CPS compared to CPS
receiving runoff from a single public inlet.
5.3 Scenario 1D
This scenario assumes that key locations can be identified such that a single CPS can be
installed in a structure that receives runoff from multiple public PLU inlets. The total number of
full capture devices used to treat public inlets was thus reduced to 60% of the number in the
Scenarios 1A through 1C. An example of a strategic location is provided in Figure 2 below.
However, it should be noted that all of the public inlets that would have an ARS installed in
Scenario 1A will still have an ARS installed in the this scenario, even if that drain will no longer
have a CPS installed. The assumption is that having ARS installed upstream of the structures
with CPS will still be beneficial for minimizing the required maintenance frequency. Despite
retaining the same number of ARS as Scenario 1A, this scenario still results in an increased
average drainage area per BMP, so CPS in public inlets are assumed to have a higher required
maintenance frequency.
Note that the reduction in number of CPS installed in this scenario applies to locations treating
flows entering public PLU inlets. For private PLU inlets, the BMP implementation would be
identical to the Scenarios 1A through 1C (i.e. an estimated 365 CPS installed to handle 1,195
private inlets).

Figure 2. Example Strategic Location for CPS Installation.
In this example, one CPS would be installed at the downstream junction (green)
rather than installing three CPS in the upstream drains (blue).
5.4 Track 1 Implementation Schedule
The Trash Amendments require full compliance within ten years, with permittees required to
demonstrate achievement of interim milestones. For Track 1 the anticipated requirement is
installation of approximately 10 percent of the total full capture devices each year. Therefore, in
the Track 1 scenarios the installation schedule of all BMPs has been distributed evenly over the
first 10 years of the program.
2017-08-15 Agenda Packet Page 173
City of Chula Vista
Trash Amendments Baseline Assessment
Page 14
5.5 Track 1 Implementation, Monitoring, and Reporting
Unlike a Track 2 approach, a Track 1 approach does not require the City to prepare an
“Implementation Plan” in which it outlines its entire trash control program and submits it to the
Regional Board for approval. However, significant staff time will still be needed to plan the
program prior to actual implementation. Cost estimates for Track 1 scenarios include a one-
time cost for program planning plus additional annual costs to cover program management.
According to the Trash Amendments, a Track 1 approach requires annual reporting but does
not require a monitoring program. Annual reporting will primarily entail reporting on progress
toward installation of all full capture devices and on annual maintenance activities. Therefore, a
significant proportion of the reporting program will be the ongoing collection and management of
this BMP data. Additionally, collecting data on BMP installation will be completed in year 10, so
reporting costs are reduced in years 11 through 20.
It should be noted that the 13383 Order issued by the Regional Board indicates that there will
be “monitoring and reporting” requirements for both Track 1 and Track 2. However, Regional
Board staff added a footnote to the Order indicating that these monitoring and reporting
requirements will be based on the corresponding section of the Trash Amendments that
indicates monitoring is only required for Track 2. While the 13383 Order still leaves the door
open for the Regional Board to issue stricter monitoring requirements, based on previous
feedback from the Regional Board staff and on the addition of the previously mentioned footnote
to the 13383 Order, it is understood that the intention is to require a true monitoring program
(e.g. performing field assessments at outfalls and water bodies) only for Track 2. Therefore, no
separate costs were included for a monitoring program in the Track 1 scenarios.
5.6 Track 1 Costs
Although full compliance is to be achieved over a ten year period, annual costs were calculated
for a twenty year period. This was done to better reflect the impact of the long term program
costs that the City will continue to incur even after all of the full capture devices have been
purchased. Table 5 and Figure 3 below summarize both the total number of full capture devices
installed and the twenty-year total costs for all four Track 1 Scenarios. To reflect the relative
impact of different program components, costs have been broken down into the following
categories:
Structural BMP Capital Costs: This covers the purchase and installation of all
structural trash control BMPs. It also includes an estimated cost to cover the staff time
needed to coordinate with vendors to acquire the BMPs.
BMP Maintenance: This covers regular inspection and maintenance of structural trash
control BMPs by City staff. Maintenance rates were based on data provided by City staff.
Based on conversations with Los Angeles County, the maintenance frequency used for
an inlet with a CPS and ARS was three cleanings plus one additional inspection per year.
For situations where a CPS will be used downstream of multiple PLU inlets, the number
of cleanings per year was increased to seven to cover monthly cleanings during the
rainy season.
Repair and Replacement: This includes costs to cover repairs when installed BMPs
become damaged as well as costs to cover full replacement when BMPs are damaged
beyond repair.
Data Collection, Reporting, and Management: This covers the annual data collection
and reporting activities discussed in the previous section, as well as initial program
planning costs and an annual cost to cover ongoing management of the program.

6. Track 2 Assessment
6.1 Track 2 Approach
As described in Section 3, development of a Track 2 approach is centered on the FCSE value,
which is the estimated amount of trash per year generated from all the City’s PLUs. Under
Track 2, the City must achieve an annual trash load reduction equal to the FCSE. This trash
load reduction can be achieved through a combination of the following:
Installation of full capture devices
Existing trash removal activities
New or enhanced trash removal programs
First, data was collected on the City’s existing programs that provide trash removal. For each
existing activity, a trash load reduction value (in gallons of trash removed per year) was then
calculated. Next, a suite of potential enhanced trash removal activities were identified. Based
on a combination of data provided by the City and from the literature, calculations were
performed to determine an estimated cost and trash load reduction for each enhanced activity.4
The combined trash load reduction from existing activities and enhanced efforts was then
subtracted from the FCSE to determine the quantity of trash that would need to be removed by
full capture devices. A calculation was then performed to convert this trash load reduction value
into an estimate of the total number of structural BMPs that would need to be installed.
Additional information on these calculations is provided in Appendix D.
6.2 Track 2 Scenarios
Based on discussions with City staff, Track 2 costs were estimated for scenarios using the same
BMP types as Track 1 Scenarios 1B (CPS without ARS) and 1C (curb inlet baskets). To show
the similarity to Track 1 Scenarios that use the same full capture devices, for Track 2, these
have been labeled Scenarios 2B and 2C, respectively. Since the calculation used to estimate
the number of full capture devices required was based on a per-inlet trash removal rate, a Track
2 equivalent of the 1D “downstream locations” scenario was not included. Both Track 2
scenarios use the same existing and enhanced trash removal efforts and the same number of
full capture devices, but types of full capture devices used will be different, as described below:
Scenario 2B: Drains will be equipped with CPS in most instances and with grate inlet
style drainage inserts (GISB) in the small number of inlets where CPS cannot be used.
ARS will not be used.
Scenario 2C: Curb inlet baskets (R-GISB) will be installed instead of CPS wherever
possible, although CPS and GISB will still be needed for some drainage structures.
ARS will not be used.
A single cost value is reported for each of these two scenarios in Section 6.6. However,
technically, two cost calculations were performed for each scenario, and Section 6.6 reports
average values. A “conservative” and an “optimistic” version of each Track 2 scenario were
calculated. Both versions use all of the same existing trash removal activities and enhanced
efforts. The difference is in the estimated trash load reduction value assigned to each activity.
For each activity, two load reduction values were calculated: a low end value based on more

MS4s Towards Stormwater Trash Load Reduction Goals. Technical Report (Version 1.0).

Page 17
conservative assumptions about the effectiveness of the strategy and a high end value based
on more optimistic assumptions. The conservative versions use all of the low end load
reduction values, and the optimistic versions use the high end values. Since the number of full
capture devices needed in a Track 2 approach goes down when other activities provide more
trash removal, the optimistic versions require significantly fewer full capture devices. For
simplicity, the body of this report focuses on the average of the conservative and optimistic
versions of each scenario, but full breakdowns of the optimistic and conservative version costs
are provided in Appendix D.
6.3 Existing Activities and Enhanced Efforts
Table 6 and Table 7 provide descriptions of all the existing activities and enhanced efforts,
respectively, that were incorporated into the Track 2 scenarios. A few additional enhanced
efforts were also quantified, but were not incorporated into the Track 2 scenarios. Additional
information on these can be found in Appendix D.

Street Sweeping
Total annual debris removal was provided by the City. The conservative scenario is based on a Bay Area study (EOA, Inc. 2007) which indicates that only 1% of
street sweeping debris is trash. However, since these types of studies are limited, the optimistic scenario assumes that 3% of street sweeping debris is trash. 4,070 11.2%

Trash Bin Addition Program (Industrial and Commercial Areas)
Per the franchise agreement/contract between the City of Chula Vista and Republic Services, 25 additional trash bins used in bus stops within commercial and
industrial areas are provided by Republic Services each year. Trash reduction was estimated based on the assumption that each bin has a 60 gallon capacity and
that, on average, a bin becomes 40% full over the span of a week. The quantity used for trash reduction credit should only i nclude trash that would otherwise litter
City streets. The conservative scenario assumes that 5% of the trash would have been littered in the absence of the bin. Th e optimistic scenario assumes that
10% of the trash would have been littered in the absence of the bin.
2,340 6.4%
Treatment Control BMP Cleaning
There are 249 projects on the City's Treatment Control BMP inventory. The conservative scenario assumes each project removes trash at a level of 3
gallons/year. The optimistic scenario assumes 5 gallons/year. 996 2.7%
Trash Clean-Up Events
This includes trash removal data provided by ILACSD and the City for three annual events (Creek to Bay, Coastal Cleanup Day, and Beautify CV Day). ILACSD
and City staff reported different trash removal quantities for the Beautify CV event, so the conservative value uses the smaller reported value for that event, and
the optimistic scenario uses the larger reported value.
1,631 4.5%
Unauthorized Encampment Clean-Ups
Annual trash removal quantity provided by City for encampment at 3rd and Orange. Conservative estimate reduces trash removal rate by 50% because counting
encampment trash removal has been contested in other areas. One of the main arguments is that this t rash would be going to a water body rather than the MS4,
so a City shouldn't take credit for removing trash that's in or along the water body. Optimistic scenario counts the full qu antity.
1,317 3.6%
Homeless Outreach Team Program
Total annual trash removal for 2016 was provided by the City. This program targets parks, facilities and problem areas of the City. Some of th e material removed
is unattended belongings that would be unlikely to end up in the MS4. The conservative scenario assumes that on ly 40% of the material removed is trash that
would have made it to the MS4. The optimistic scenario assumes 75% of the material removed is trash that would have made it to the MS4.

Start-up Cost: Capital cost to purchase and install new trash bins based on a cost of $500 per bin. (City questionnaire indicated that the per bin
cost varies between $85 and $1,500 depending on type). Also includes staff time to determine locations for new trash bin placement and to
coordinate acquisition of new bins. Trash bin spacing has been shown to impact effectiveness, so planning bin placement stra tegically can help
maximize load reduction.

Public Education and Outreach Programs
Includes advertising campaign to reduce litter, eight community outreach events/presentations completed annually for school -age children (K-

and student/teacher feedback). Assumed duties would be performed by Storm Water Education & Outreach staff. Fact sheet CR -3 indicates the
above activities would equate to a 6% trash load reduction, so that value was used in the optimistic scenario. However, the San Francisco
Regional Board called the fact sheet CR-3 reduction credits "grossly inflated," so the value was reduced by 50% in the conservative scenario.
Start Up Cost: Assumes 120 hours to develop program. (City-estimated hourly rate for outreach staff is $70/hr)

it should probably require multiple product bans to achieve a full 10% reduction, so a 6% reduction might be considered too high for a single
product ban. Therefore, for product ban activities we reduced the fact sheet value by 50% to get t he conservative load reduction credit.

Enhanced Street Sweeping
Per City data, residential streets are swept every other month. This would be increased to once a month for residential stre ets west of the 805.
GIS analysis using sweeping data from the City was used to estimate mileage of residential area sweeping routes west of the 805. City data was
used to calculate the average amount of debris removed per mile swept. The optimistic scenario assumes 3% of all debris collected is trash.
Conservative scenario assumes 1% of sweeping debris is trash and also reduces overall total by 15% to account for diminishing returns.
Start-up Cost: $8,000 to plan/modify sweeping schedules
Annual Cost: City sweeping data was used to calculate the cost per mile of sweeping and then multiplied by the total number additional miles to
be swept annually.

6.4 Track 2 Implementation Schedule
Like Track 1, Track 2 also requires permittees to demonstrate achievement of interim
milestones on their way to full compliance within ten years. According to the Trash
Amendments, this entails demonstration of ten percent average trash load reductions each year.
In other words, the Track 2 program must provide trash load reductions of ten percent of the
FCSE in year one, twenty percent in year two, thirty percent in year three, etc. Since the City’s
existing activities may provide over forty percent of the FCSE, implementation of new structural
and non-structural BMPs can be relatively limited in the early years of the program, resulting in
cost savings. However, completely deferring full capture device installation until later years
would potentially lead to scrutiny by the Regional Board or non-governmental organizations
(NGOs). Therefore, in the Track 2 scenarios, full capture devices are still installed during the
initial years of the program, but in slightly reduced numbers. This allows the City to monitor
installed BMPs on a small scale and apply lessons learned when ramping up installation over
the remaining years. Rollout of the new non-structural “enhanced activities” (Table 7) would be
spaced out across the first ten years, with more cost effective activities tending to be
implemented earlier.
6.5 Track 2 Implementation, Monitoring, and Reporting
Unlike Track 1, Track 2 requires the City to develop an implementation plan and submit it to the
Regional Board. In this implementation plan the City must define their FCSE, describe how
their program will achieve FCSE, and describe the monitoring program they will implement to
demonstrate attainment. It is expected that development of an implementation plan will be a
very involved process that will require meetings with the Regional Board staff to discuss
compliance metrics. In addition to a large upfront cost to cover the implementation plan, Track
2 is also anticipated to have higher annual program management costs since it has more
components to manage.
The other major programmatic requirement specific to Track 2 is the monitoring program. This
program will require the City to gather data annually from all of the program components and
quantify the data to demonstrate achievement of progress milestones. It is anticipated that the
monitoring program will also require field investigations, such as monitoring at MS4 outfalls or
performing visual trash assessments in PLU areas. Receiving water monitoring for trash may
also need to be added to the program in future years. Details of the monitoring program will
need to be worked out with Regional Board staff as part of the process of developing the
implementation plan.
6.6 Track 2 Costs
Annual costs were calculated for a twenty-year period. Table 8 and Figure 4 below summarize
both the total number of full capture devices installed and the twenty-year total costs for the two
Track 2 scenarios. Costs were broken down into the same categories as those reported for
Track 1, with one additional category, “Non-Structural BMP Efforts.” Non-structural BMP efforts
refers to both the existing trash removal activities and the enhanced efforts. However, it is
assumed that the existing activities will not account for any additional costs, so only the
enhanced efforts contribute to the costs in this category. Note that a 20 percent contingency
was used for the Track 2 scenarios, as opposed to the 15 percent contingency used for Track 1.
This was to account for the higher degree of uncertainty associated with the non-structural BMP
efforts included in Track 2.

7. Track-Switching Assessment
The Regional Board has indicated that it will be acceptable for a city to initially select a Track 2
approach and then later switch to a Track 1 approach. This strategy might be desirable if, for
example, after implementing the first few years of a Track 2 program, the City finds that its non-
structural BMP efforts turn out to be less effective or more costly than anticipated. One example
of a track-switching was included to provide a picture of how the total and annual costs would
compare to the other scenarios.
7.1 Scenario Assessed
The situation assessed assumes that the City initially selects Track 2, Scenario 2B (CPS without
ARS) and then switches to the corresponding Track 1 Scenario, 1B, after five years. The first
five years of program implementation and costs match the Track 2B Scenarios. The City would
install a relatively low number of structural BMPs in these years but would still need to develop
an implementation plan, perform Track 2 monitoring and reporting, and implement new non-
structural BMP efforts. Then in year six, the City would discontinue Track 2 monitoring and any
non-structural BMP efforts that it had started in years one through five and start installing a
much higher number of structural BMPs annually. For year six, it was also assumed that there
would be a relatively high amount of staff labor for program management and reporting in order
to handle the transition between tracks.
7.2 Costs for Track-Switching Approach
Annual costs were once again calculated for a twenty year period. A 20 percent contingency
was used for the entire 20-year period. Table 9 and Figure 5 below summarize both the total
number of full capture devices installed and the twenty-year total costs for switching from
Scenario 2B to 1B after five years.

8. Discussion
8.1 Track Cost Comparison
A breakdown of 20-year program costs for all scenarios presented in Sections 5 through 7 is
shown in Table 10 and Figure 6. Overall, Track 1 scenarios had higher total costs than Track 2
scenarios. The distribution of costs also differs between tracks, with a much larger proportion of
costs required to cover monitoring, reporting, and program management under Track 2.
As shown by the error bars in Figure 6, optimistic and conservative versions of the Track 2
scenarios differ by several million dollars, with the Conservative versions approaching, but not
quite matching some of the Track 1 scenario total costs. However, it is important to remember
that the conservative and optimistic versions of a scenario are not two distinct approaches that
the City can choose between, but rather two projections of the same Track 2 approach. A
municipality choosing Track 2 would clearly aim to achieve the higher trash load reduction
values of the optimistic scenario, but achievement of those higher reduction credits is not a
certainty. Therefore, it may be helpful to think of the conservative and optimistic costs as
representing the range of costs for a Track 2 scenario.

8.2 Track-Switching Costs
The scenario that switches from Track 2 to Track 1 after five years results in a total cost that is
similar to following a Track 1 approach, 1B in this case, the whole time. One common concern
with switching tracks is that a City may end up wasting money since it would end up purchasing
the same number of full capture devices as it would have if it started off in Track 1, but it would
also have to spend money on an implementation plan and non-structural BMP efforts that it
would end up discontinuing. However, the cost calculations for the track-switching scenario
suggest that the savings in BMP repair and maintenance during the first five years of the
program can help offset the costs of these Track 2 components that are discontinued in year 6.
Although the 20-year cost of the track-switching scenarios is similar to the 20-year cost of
Scenario 1B, there are important differences in the annual costs. As shown in Figure 7 below,
at the time of the switch from Track 2 to Track 1 in year six, there is a very large increase in
annual cost, because the City needs to install large numbers of structural BMPs in years six
through ten.

8.3 Other Risk Factors
8.3.1 Compliance Confidence
In planning any program to comply with regulations, the components of the program are
generally built around a set compliance target or standard defined in the regulation. However, it
is important to note that the compliance standard for Track 2 is not clearly defined in the Trash
Amendments. Therefore, municipalities that select Track 2 will need to engage with the
Regional Board to negotiate proposed compliance metrics and monitoring approaches prior to

implementation plan submittal in 2018, and until those compliance standards are agreed upon
the City cannot have complete confidence that their planned program will result in compliance.
Based on previous interactions with the Regional Board on WQIP development, it is possible
that the Regional Board's interpretation of Track 2 compliance metrics may be stricter than what
was generally expected by the municipalities. It is possible that a City could plan its Track 2
program and then upon submittal of the implementation plan in 2018, the Regional Board could
decide that it will not allow a City to count certain activities toward its overall trash load reduction
value or that it will require more conservative methods for calculating trash load reduction
values associated with certain activities. Conversely, the compliance standard for Track 1 is
more clearly defined as the installation of full capture devices in storm drains receiving runoff
from all PLUs in a City's jurisdiction. Therefore, there is much more certainty that a Track 1
approach planned at this time will ultimately achieve compliance compared to a Track 2
approach planned at this time.
The lack of a clear definition of Track 2 compliance standards in the Trash Amendments could
also result in the compliance targets changing over the course of the 10-year compliance
window. For example, even if a City is meeting its compliance milestones agreed upon with the
Regional Board, a NGO could observe trash in a water body and then challenge the validity of
the agreed upon Track 2 approach and compliance standards. This could put pressure on the
Regional Board to change the compliance standard, or it could result in the City having to
conduct costly additional studies (e.g. to demonstrate that the trash was not coming from the
City’s MS4) to maintain the agreed upon compliance standard. Track 1 compliance, on the
other hand, would be much harder to challenge since it is based strictly on installing and
maintaining BMPs rather than more subjective metrics such as visual trash observations at
outfalls or in water bodies.
8.3.2 Flooding and Infrastructure Damage
While all of the structural BMPs considered in this report are designed with mechanisms to allow
water to safely bypass the BMP if it reaches capacity or clogs, there is always some risk of BMP
failure leading to flooding or infrastructure damage. If flooding occurs and leads to property
damage, there is the potential for lawsuits or other claims against the City. The risk of such a
situation is likely higher in Track 1 scenarios simply due to the larger number of structural BMPs.
However, in Track 2, especially in conservative scenarios, the City will still need to install a large
number of structural BMPs, so the difference in flood risk between Track 1 and Track 2 may not
be dramatic.
8.4 Impact on WQIP Goals
In addition to the requirements of the Trash Amendments, the City is also impacted by the trash-
related goals from the San Diego Bay WQIP. These goals only apply to the portion of the City
west of the 805 where “physical aesthetics” (i.e. trash) are identified as a “Focused Priority
Condition.” To achieve compliance, by fiscal year 2028, one of the following goals must be
achieved for the Focused Priority Condition:
1. 95% of the MS4 outfalls visually assessed for trash must have an “optimal” rating.
-- OR --
2. 100% of the high volume trash drainage area for which BMP retrofit is feasible must
have structural trash control BMPs installed.
2017-08-15 Agenda Packet Page 187
City of Chula Vista
Trash Amendments Baseline Assessment
Page 28
Implementing either a Track 1 or Track 2 approach will contribute to the achievement of either
one of these WQIP goals, but the degree to which the City’s Trash Amendments compliance
program overlaps with the WQIP goals may vary based on the details of the program.
One issue is that the land use-based PLU definitions do not explicitly match up with the term
“high volume trash drainage area” used in the WQIP goals. Therefore, the degree to which a
Track 1 approach contributes to meeting the BMP retrofit WQIP goal (goal #2) mainly depends
on how close the correspondence is between PLUs and high volume trash generation areas. A
Track 1 approach should also indirectly help achieve the MS4 outfall trash assesment goal (goal
#1), since installing full capture devices should reduce the trash levels observed at outfalls. A
Track 2 approach would provide the City with more flexibility on the locations of both structural
and non-structural BMPs. For example, non-structural BMPs such as clean-up events and
increased street sweeping can target the west side of the City, which would contribute to
achieving goal #1. Additionally, Track 2 allows a City to take credit for structural BMPs installed
in non-PLU areas. If high volume trash drainage areas were defined significantly differently
than PLUs and the number of BMPs required to treat those areas was significantly less than the
number of BMPs required to treat all PLU inlets, it is possible that implementing a Track 2
approach could still meet goal #2. However, if PLUs and high volume trash drainage areas are
defined as being equivalent or approximately equivalent, which is likely, then implementing a
Track 2 approach would not result in enough BMP retrofits to meet goal #2. Additional
comparison of WQIP goals and Trash Amendment requirements is provided below:
The high volume trash drainage area BMP retrofit goal was developed to correspond
with the State Trash Amendments, as noted in footnote 5 to Table 4-23 in the accepted
2016 WQIP. In this context, “high volume trash drainage area” as used in the WQIP
would generally correspond to PLUs as defined in the Trash Amendments.
o However, the WQIP indicates that high volume trash drainage areas are portions
of the City that data indicates do in fact generate high levels of trash. On the
other hand, because the default PLUs in the Trash Amendments are based
strictly on land use, it is possible that some areas defined as PLUs do not
generate high volumes of trash, and vice versa. There are two main approaches
to this issue:
Define high volume trash drainage areas as equivalent to PLUs. This is
straightforward but could result in the City being required to install
structural BMPs to treat PLUs that do not actually generate high levels of
trash to comply with the BMP retrofit goal.
Collect and present data to the Regional Board to argue for adjustment to
PLUs such that areas shown by data or institutional knowledge to
generate high trash volumes are the only areas considered PLUs for
purposes of Trash Amendments compliance. This approach would be
contingent on Regional Board approval. If approved, it would likely be a
more effective use of City resources since BMP installation would be
targeted only at areas known to generate high volumes of trash.
The high volume trash drainage area BMP retrofit goal only applies to areas that are
feasible for retrofit. Track 1, as described in the Trash Amendments, requires
installation of full capture devices in all PLU inlets and does not mention an exemption
for infeasibility. In the Los Angeles region though, that Regional Board has developed a
framework through which jursidictions can document that BMP installation is infeasible in
certain locations and still comply via only structural BMP installation. It is anticipated
that a similar pathway will be able to be worked out with the San Diego Regional Board,
although this will remain an uncertainty until the details of Trash Amendments
application to the Permit and the WQIP are worked out.
2017-08-15 Agenda Packet Page 188
City of Chula Vista
Trash Amendments Baseline Assessment
Page 29
The optimal outfall rating goal is similar to a Track 2 type of approach in that it is based
on performance measured by monitoring rather than BMP implementation. The
underlying assumption is that 95% optimal scores at outfalls demonstrates full capture
equivalency. The WQIP goals were developed with Regional Board staff in view of
Trash Amendments requirements, so this view of full capture equivalency may continue
to hold in the future. On the other hand, it is also possible that once the Trash
Amendments are incorporated into the Permit, the Regional Board revises this opinion
and applies a more onerous definition of full capture equivalency. In that case, meeting
the WQIP goal for MS4 outfall trash scores may not be sufficient to demonstrate
compliance with the Trash Amendments.
Also note that standard and enhanced non-structural BMPs directly contribute to
achieving the MS4 outfall trash assessment goal but not the BMP retrofit goal.
It is also important to remember that the WQIP is a “living” document, and the Regional Board
expects municipalities to make regular updates to the document. Therefore, it is probable that
there may be an opportunity to revise or clarify the WQIP physical aesthetics goals to more
closely coincide with the City’s chosen Trash Amendments compliance approach.
9. Conclusions
The following is a list of general conclusions about Track 1 and Track 2 approaches drawn from
the materials presented in this report:
1. Track 2 may be less expensive than Track 1, but that is based on the assumptions that
the City’s trash removal efforts yield trash load reduction values consistent with initial
estimates and that the final compliance metrics determined by the Regional Board are
consistent with what is currently anticipated. If these assumptions are not met, the City
may need to switch to a Track 1 approach. This would result in the City accruing all the
capital costs of a Track 1 approach plus the costs of preparing an implementation plan
and doing additional monitoring during the period in which it is following a Track 2
approach.
2. Structural full capture devices would be required in both tracks. Connector pipe screens
are expected to be more cost effective than other full capture devices.
3. Because Track 2 allows the City to take credit for existing non-structural BMPs that
remove trash, such as street sweeping and cleanups, installation of full capture devices
can be ramped up more slowly over the first few years of program implementation.
Track 1 would require installing fairly large numbers of full capture devices even in the
first years of program implementation.
4. Track 2 has a higher risk of Regional Board enforcement actions or third party lawsuits
(see Section 8.1.1).
5. Track 1 has a higher risk of flooding damage and associated costs, although since a
relatively large number of structural BMPs are also anticipated under Track 2, this
difference may not be large (see Section 8.1.2).
6. Track 1 would be expected to result in achieving at least one (% of area retrofitted with
BMPs), and possibly both (full capture BMPs may also result in meeting the MS4 outfall
trash level goal), of the City's two WQIP goals.
2017-08-15 Agenda Packet Page 189
City of Chula Vista
Trash Amendments Baseline Assessment
Page 30
7. Track 2 may result in achieving one of the City's WQIP goals (MS4 outfall trash levels)
but most likely is not capable of achieving the other WQIP goal (% of area retrofitted with
BMPs).
Feasibility of a Track 2 approach is largely dependent on how the Regional Board will define full
capture equivalency. If a relatively reasonable and achievable definition, like the MS4 outfall
trash level goal the City has in the WQIP, is used, then Track 2 is more attractive. Under that
type of approach, Track 2 would allow for the City to focus program expenditures on controlling
trash where data shows it is a significant problem. However, if Track 2 is interpreted as
requiring the City to demonstrate that receiving waters have essentially no trash, or other
standards that effectively make the City's compliance depend on controlling sources beyond
MS4 discharges (e.g., direct illegal dumping into creeks and rivers or transient encampments),
then Track 2 becomes virtually unachievable and cost prohibitive.

indicating whether Track 1 or Track 2 control measures will be used to comply with the trash
discharge prohibition by September 05, 2017; and
WHEREAS, jurisdictional maps and implementation plans associated with either Track 1
or Track 2 control measures must be submitted to the San Diego Water Board by December 03,
2018; and
WHEREAS, the City of Chula Vista (City), as well as the other 20 Copermittees must
decide between two compliance paths (Track 1 or Track 2) and implement “full capture” of trash
in Priority Land Use Areas by 2028; and
WHEREAS, Priority Land Use areas (commercial, industrial, high density residential,
public transportation, and “mixed urban”) are deemed to have elevated trash generation rates.
The City has identified approximately 1,800 storm drain inlets subject to this Order within
Priority Land Use Areas (Attachment 1); and
WHEREAS, Track 1 requires the installation and maintenance of certified structural
devices, see Attachment 2, (“full capture systems”) on all storm drains that capture runoff from
Priority Land Use Areas; and
WHEREAS, compliance with Track 1 requirements is achieved when the City has
demonstrated annually the installation, operation, and maintenance of full capture systems and
provides mapped location and drainage area served by full capture systems; and
WHEREAS, Track 2 requires a combination of certified structural devices where feasible
and programmatic controls (e.g. catch basin cleaning, street sweeping, trash receptacle programs)
to capture all trash generated from Priority Land Use areas (“full capture equivalence”); and
2017-08-15 Agenda Packet Page 192
WHEREAS, compliance with Track 2 requirements is achieved when the City has,
“[d]eveloped and implemented a set of monitoring objectives that demonstrate mandated
performance results, effectiveness of the selected combination of treatment and institutional
controls, and compliance with full capture system equivalency; and
WHEREAS, in preparation for the expected Trash Order, on August 02, 2016, by
Resolution 2016-156, City Council approved a contract with D-Max Engineering, Inc. to prepare
Trash Amendments Baseline Assessment Report (“Baseline Report”); and
WHEREAS, D-Max completed a preliminary evaluation of different compliance
scenarios considering data from Public Works, Engineering, Geographic Information Systems,
and Economic Development Departments, and submitted a final Baseline Report dated June 19,
2017 (Attachment 3).
WHEREAS, a 20-year planning horizon was considered by D-Max, along with six
scenarios from Track 1 and Track 2. Overall, Track 1 scenarios had higher total costs than Track
2 scenarios; and
WHEREAS, the distribution of costs also differs between tracks, with a much larger
proportion of costs required to cover monitoring, reporting, and program management under
Track 2; and
WHEREAS, the San Diego RWQCB has indicated that it will be acceptable for a city to
initially select a Track 2 approach and then later switch to a Track 1 approach. This strategy
might be desirable if, for example, after implementing the first few years of a Track 2 program,
the City finds that its nonstructural BMP efforts turn out to be less effective or more costly than
anticipated; and
WHEREAS, the Trash Order requires the City to notify the San Diego RWQCB of the
selected compliance track by no later than September 5, 2017 and submit implementation maps,
time schedules and (if applicable) compliance plans by December 3, 2018; and
WHEREAS, based upon an analysis of the two tracks, staff is recommending that the San
Diego RWQCB be notified that the City is selecting the Track 2 approach to comply with the
Trash Amendment Investigative Order (IO) No. R9-2017-0077; and
WHEREAS, the Director of Development Services has reviewed the proposed project for
compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined that the
project qualifies for a Categorical Exemption pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15301
Class 1 (Existing Facilities) and/or Section 15303 Class 3 (New Construction or Conversion of
Small Structures). Thus, no further environmental review is required.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Chula
Vista, that it authorize the City Manager or his designee to notify the San Diego Regional Water
Quality Control Board of Track Selected to comply with the Trash Amendment Investigative
Order No. R9-2017-0077.

File#:17-0154, Item#: 6.
SB 54, titled the “California Values Act, was introduced in December 2016 by Senate President pro
Tempore Kevin de León, D-Los Angeles. The bill was amended four times in response to law
enforcement concerns before it passed in the Senate on April 3, 2017, 27-12. The bill is now pending
review in the California Assembly. A vote by the full Assembly is expected in by the end of the current
legislative session. According to media reports this month, Governor Jerry Brown is discussing
amendments to the bill with Senator de León’s office. Governor Brown reportedly also is meeting with
law enforcement leaders about their recommendations, such as allowing federal officials to continue
working in jails and expanding the bill’s scope to expand exceptions to include additional felony
crimes..
If the bill passes in the Assembly and is subsequently signed into law by Governor Brown, the bill
would add sections 7284 to 7284.10 to the California Government Code and sections 3058.10 and
3058.11 to the California Penal Code and would become effective on January 1, 2018. The bill would
repeal California Health and Safety Code Section 11369, which requires a local law enforcement
agency to notify federal immigration authorities if there is reason to believe a non-U.S. citizen has
been arrested for certain drug crimes.
The bill would prohibit California law enforcement agencies from using “agency or department
moneys, facilities, property, equipment, or personnel to investigate, interrogate, detain, detect or
arrest persons for immigration enforcement purposes.” The bill defines “immigration enforcement” as
“any and all efforts to investigate, enforce, or assist in the investigation or enforcement of any federal
civil immigration law, and also includes any and all efforts to investigate, enforce or assist in the
investigation or enforcement of any federal criminal immigration law that penalizes a person’s
presence in, entry, or re-entry to, or employment in, the United States,” with listed exceptions.
1.Law enforcement activities prohibited by SB 54 would include:
·inquiring into an individual’s immigration status
·detaining an individual on the basis of a hold request

available to the public (time of release from custody is public information, pursuant to
Cal. Government Code section 6254 (f)(1))
·providing personal information about an individual, such as home or work address,
unless that information is available to the public (the home address of an arrested
individual is public information if the requestor declares under penalty of perjury that the
request is made for a government purpose, pursuant to Cal. Government Code section
6254(f)(3))
·making, assisting, or participating in arrests based on civil immigration warrants

B.SB 54’s impacts on the Chula Vista Police Department
This bill is anticipated to have no impact on current operation of the City’s jail, or on routine patrol and
investigation functions. A summary of jail operations, excerpted from the April 4 staff report on City
policies for immigration enforcement, is included below. Because the Department participates in joint
task forces that focus on crime, not immigration, the Department would be required to submit bi-
annual reports concerning task force operations to demonstrate compliance with SB 54 to the
California Department of Justice, in a format that would be determined by the State Attorney General.
1.City jail
CVPD uses its jail to “book” and briefly detain individuals arrested by CVPD officers. “Booking”
involves documenting identifying information, photographing and fingerprinting an arrested party.
Fingerprints and photos of all arrestees are shared automatically with other local, state, and federal
agencies through a shared data base. CVPD averages six adult bookings into the City jail per day.
After booking, male arrestees are taken to the San Diego County Central Jail in downtown San
Diego. Female arrestees are taken to Las Colinas Detention and Reentry Facility in Santee.
CVPD jail staff does not itself inquire regarding an arrestee’s immigration status, but may become
aware of detainers, warrants, or other notifications by ICE that have been entered by ICE into law
enforcement databases. Per the City’s jails procedures manual, if this occurs, ICE would be notified.
If ICE provides an ICE Detention order, that order is transported with the arrestee to the County Jail.
Jail staff:
·Does not specifically inquire about the immigration status of any arrestee.
·Does not proactively contact ICE to detain arrestees or for identification purposes.
·Does not release local arrestees to ICE or Customs and Border Protection, via detainer
or any other method. They do, however, release U.S. Marshals’ inmates to ICE when so
directed by the Marshals Office via ICE Detainer.
·Does not give consideration to immigration status when determining arrestees to be
transported to San Diego County Jail. Arrestees are transferred to County Jail
according to CVPD policy and the Jail’s acceptance criteria, regardless of immigration
status.
Since 2009 the primary use of the City jail has been through a City contract with the U.S. Marshals
Service to house individuals charged with federal felony crimes. Under this contract, the jail currently
houses only female inmates, averaging 30 daily in 2016. These individuals have been arrested by
federal law enforcement officers and are either in criminal pre-trial or trial proceedings in federal
court, or they have been convicted and sentenced in federal court and are awaiting assignment to a
federal prison. The jail is not used as a detention center for individuals suspected of alleged civil
immigration offenses.

C.SB 54’s impacts on county jails and state prisons
As noted in the April 4, 2017 staff report on city policies on immigration enforcement, this bill primarily
affects county law enforcement agencies that operate jails and state agencies that operate prisons.
These entities routinely handle detainer and notification requests from Federal immigration officials
concerning access to and transfer of immigrant inmates. Specifically, jailers would be prohibited from
honoring detainer requests or allowing Federal immigration officers access to inmates for immigration
purposes, unless authorized by a judicial warrant or a judicial determination of probable cause.
Jailers would be prohibited from transferring an inmate to Federal immigration authorities unless
authorized by a judicial warrant or a determination of judicial probable cause, or unless the
undocumented inmate was subject to a violation of specific Federal criminal immigration laws and
had specific violent or serious felony convictions. Jailers also would be prohibited from responding to
a notification request from a Federal immigration official unless the inmate was serving a term for a
misdemeanor or felony conviction and had a prior conviction for a violent or serious felony defined by
state law.
1.County jail
A summary of County of San Diego jail operations from the April 4, 2017 staff report is excerpted
below:
Arrestees from every jurisdiction in San Diego County, including Chula Vista, are taken to one of the
San Diego County Sheriff’s Department’s intake jails in downtown San Diego, Santee or Vista. The
City has no legal control or authority over policies within the County jail system. Immigrant arrestees
are subject to evaluation by ICE agents who work at these jails for possible immigration
consequences following release from Sheriff’s custody. Specifically, ICE agents review criminal
history, which is tied to fingerprints and identifying information routinely obtained in the booking
process. If subject to immigration consequences, including removal proceedings, these inmates are
subject to transfer directly from Sheriff’s custody to ICE custody before leaving a County jail. ICE
custody could result in transfer to an immigration detention facility or immediate removal from the
United States. Sheriff William D. Gore, in a media interview, has stated he believes it is safer for all
concerned for ICE agents to take custody of eligible inmates in a secure jail setting rather than have
agents seek out individuals after release from jail in public or at private work places and residences,
where agents also may encounter additional undocumented individuals.
D.Arguments for SB 54
An 18-page analysis of the bill, prepared by Alison Merrilees for the July 5, 2017 Assembly
Committee on the Judiciary, is attached. According to the analysis, 126 groups have registered
support for SB 54, from Abriendo Puertas (Opening Doors) to the YWCA, along with “numerous
individuals.” The only city listed was Redwood City.
The “Arguments In Support” section of the analysis states on Page 15:
“The Mario G. Obledo National Coalition of Hispanic Organizations writes in support of the bill that
‘using local police resources to support immigration law enforcement detracts from their primary goal
of preserving the public order and ensuring that violent felons are apprehended and incarcerated in a
timely manner.’ SB 54, it continues, ‘properly ensure that state and local law enforcement agencies,City of Chula Vista Printed on 8/10/2017Page 7 of 9
powered by Legistar™2017-08-15 Agenda Packet Page 201
File#:17-0154, Item#: 6.
timely manner.’ SB 54, it continues, ‘properly ensure that state and local law enforcement agencies,
including school police agencies, will not engage in immigration enforcement. Further, SB 54 requires
that California courts health facilities and schools safe and accessible regardless of immigration
status. It is a compassionate bill designed to afford human rights to all of California’s inhabitants.’
Similarly, Asian Americans Advancing Justice, write that “SB 54 would disentangle local law
enforcement from the business of deportations’ and as a result will ‘create safer spaces as schools,
libraries, courthouses, shelters, DLSE facilities, and health care facilities, by limiting immigration
enforcement at these locations.’ The ACLU of Northern California observes that ‘SB 54 upholds
California’s core values of equal treatment, community, family unity, and common humanity by
ensuring that California’s police departments, schools, healthcare facilities and courts remain
accessible to Californians from all walks of life.’”
E.Arguments Against SB 54
According to the analysis, 4 groups and “numerous individuals” have registered opposition to SB 54.
Included are the California Police Chiefs Association, of which Chief Roxana Kennedy is a member,
and the California State Sheriffs Association, along with the cities of Camarillo, Glendora, Torrance,
and West Covina.
The “Arguments In Opposition” section of the analysis states on Page 15:
“Peace Officers Research Association of California writes that it opposes SB 54 for ‘three critical
reasons’ which it identified as the requirement to report task force operations to the Attorney General;
the unintended impact of detained immigrants likely being taken outside the state ‘thereby separating
them from their families, communities and networks’ and ‘the breakdown of local, state, and federal
partnerships [that] will prevent our officers from being able to do their jobs; consequently, violent
criminals will remain on the streets and our families will be in danger.’ The California State Sheriffs
Association writes that although ‘Sheriffs do not wish to act as immigration police…we need to
continue to cooperate with our law enforcement partners to ensure that those who victimize our
communities are not given unnecessary opportunities to do more harm.’ The association continues
that ‘The bill, with limited exception, precludes law enforcement from sharing information that is not
publicly available about persons in custody with federal authorities’ so that ‘sheriffs would still be
precluded from relaying information about people convicted of crimes like domestic violence and
drunk driving unless they also had current or prior convictions for serious or violent felonies.’ The
California Police Chiefs Association also opposes the bill, for the same general reasons as expressed
by other law enforcement groups, and concludes about the bill that ‘SB 54 will make it more difficult
to work with our federal law enforcement partners in apprehending dangerous criminals, and
threatens to create more fear in our communities by forcing federal immigrations operations out of
our jails and into our communities.’”
Another objection to SB 54 is that it violates principles of “home rule”. Proponents of SB 54 have
noted that it is inappriopriate for federal law enforcement authorities to impose its rules on state and
local law enforcement. The solution of SB 54 is to impose state level restrictions on local law
enforcement.

Consider the resolution and take action as Council deems appropriate.
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 Title 2,
section 18702.2(a)(11), is not applicable to this decision for purposes of determining a
disqualifying real property-related financial conflict of interest under the Political Reform Act (Cal.
Gov't Code § 87100, et seq.).
Staff is not independently aware, and has not been informed by any City Council member, of any
other fact that may constitute a basis for a decision maker conflict of interest in this matter.
LINK TO STRATEGIC GOALS
The City’s Strategic Plan has five major goals: Operational Excellence, Economic Vitality, Healthy
Community, Strong and Secure Neighborhoods and a Connected Community. This report discusses
issues and policies linked to the City’s Economic Vitality and Strong and Secure Neighborhoods.
CURRENT YEAR FISCAL IMPACT
This resolution by itself creates no current year fiscal impacts.
ONGOING FISCAL IMPACT
This resolution by itself creates no ongoing fiscal impacts. If SB 54 is adopted, the Chula Vista
Police Department would have additional reporting requirements. The amount of additional staff time
required is difficult to estimate at this time until Attorney General reporting guidelines are finalized.
