Item 5
Meeting Date 10/14/86
Resolution /°~?~Awarding a contract for consulting services
for the Chula Vista Social Services Plan
Community Development Director~
City Manager (4/Sths Vote: Yes No X )
At the meeting of May 13, 1986, the Council approved the lg86-87 budget for
the City's Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program. Included in that
approved budget was $6,000 for a Social Services Plan for the City.
Prospective consultants for organizing and writing the plan have been
evaluated by the Commission on Aging and the Human Relations Commission, who
chose one of the consultants as their recommendation to the Council.
RECOMMENDATION: That the Council adopt the resolution approving a contract
with Irene Saper for coordination and writing of the Social Services Plan.
BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: The Human Relations Commission and the
Commission on Aging both recommend a contract with Irene Saper for the
preparation of a Social Services Plan.
DISCUSSION:
The Chula Vista Social Services Plan was originally proposed by the Commission
on Aging as a Chula Vista Five Year Plan on Aging. At the CDBG budget hearing
of May 13, 1986, the Council voted to have $6,000 in Block Grant funds finance
a Social Services Plan for the entire population of the city, rather than the
senior citizen population only. It was agreed that this plan would help the
City to see in which social areas there were either gaps or duplication of
service. It was also expressed that the Plan could help the City identify its
proper role in the provision of social services for Chula Vista residents.
Discussions of the plan were held with consultants B. J. Curry-Spitler, Irene
Saper, the County Area Agency on Aging, SANDAG and the San Diego State
University Intern Programs for the Departments of Social Work and Public
Administration. Proposals were requested from Irene Saper, B.J. Curry-Spitler
and the Area Agency on Aging.
Saper chaired the subcommittee which prepared the Social Services Master Plan
for the City of Escondido in 1984-85. The Master Plan has been used by the
City of Escondido in setting priorities for CDBG and other funding and has
also been an important factor in the development and expansion of numerous
social service activities in Escondido with funding and support from County,

State and private agencies. Saper has been the primary author and organizer
of the Escondido Plan, as well as subsequent updates of the Plan. She is also
a licensed counsellor with the Pal omar Family Counselling Service. The Mayor
pro-tem and the Assistant City Manager of Escondido have both expressed full
satisfaction with the work Saper performed for the Escondido plan and both
gave her strong support as a candidate for the Chula Vista Plan.
The Area Agency on Aging (AAA) is a county-wide organization which plans for
meeting the needs of senior citizens in the County. The AAA does a countywide
four year Area Plan on Aging, which is updated annually. That plan provides
socio-demographic data on seniors, establishing a needs assessment and an
identification of resources and sets goals, policies, and objectives for
meeting needs. The AAA has local representation in Chula Vista.
Although Ms. Curry-Spitler originally proposed to coordinate the plan with the
assistance of San Diego State interns, she later dropped her proposal. A
staff subcommittee rated the remaining two proposals on the basis of four
criteria: Cost, Qualifications, Methodology and Resources. A maximum 100
point scale was used with the following results:
Cost Qualifications Methodology
Resources TOTAL
25 80
20 95
force
Area Agency on Aging l0 20 25
Irene Saper 25 25 25
Irene Saper proposed to coordinate research, public hearings and task
activities and deliver a single print-ready copy of the plan to the City for
$6,000. The Area Agency on Aging also proposed to coordinate the Plan
development process and deliver a print-ready copy of the plan for $16,000.
It was felt that Saper demonstrated superior cost-effectiveness and
qualifications. The plan Saper headed in Escondido is similar to what is
desired for Chula Vista, and her experience has been with all segments of the
population, as opposed to the AAA, which concentrates exclusively on senior
citizens. It was felt that AAA, because of its connections in the County
network and its local representation, had better access to resources relevant
to Chula Vista's social services situation. The proposals from the
consultants, as well as the Escondido Social Services Master Plan and the San
Diego County Area Plan on Aging for 1985-1989, are available for reviewing in
the Community Development Department.
A crucial component of the Chula Vista Social Services Plan is the public
input that goes into it, and particularly the involvement of the task force
that will recommend goals, objectives and policies for the plan. A
subcommittee composed of two members of the Human Relations Commission, two
members of the Commission on Aging and one staff member has been formed to
nominate members of the task force. It is anticipated that the task force
will be comprised of a wide range of representatives of social service
providers, civic organizations, public institutions, and the resident
population at large. The list of nominations will come to the Council at a
later date for approval.

FISCAL IMPACT: The 1986-87 CDBG budget already includes $6,000 designated
for the Social Services Plan in account #635 6350 BG203. The amount is
sufficient to cover consultant costs. Sufficient additional funds are in the
Block Grant Administration account #634 6340 BG200 to cover staff and overhead
costs involved with the project.
