DISCUSSION
LakeFest 2018
In its second year, LakeFest 2018 is anticipated to attract more than 10,000 people to Mountain
Hawk Park in Chula Vista. LakeFest is a free, all-ages family festival that focuses on engaging kid’s
activities, artistic space and local music. With views of Otay Lakes, LakeFest spotlights all that there
is to love about Chula Vista, including our local community assets such as the Living Coast Discovery
Center, Easton Archery Center and Chula Vista BMX. The event also highlights our emerging arts
scene, focusing on various art elements including a group painting, free public art and talented local
musicians.
Independence Day Fireworks 2018
Chula Vista 4th Fest 2017 was a great success with more than 10,000 people attending the fireworks
show. More than 15,000 are projected to attend the 2018 fireworks display, with residents and visitors
alike enjoying a beautiful day at the Chula Vista Elite Athlete Training Center and Mountain Hawk
Park.
HarborFest 2018
The City of Chula Vista is collaborating with local agencies and volunteers to hold HarborFest on
August 18, 2018. HarborFest is one of the region’s biggest summer events attracting more than
35,000 participants to Chula Vista. This even spotlights the beautiful South Bay waterfront and
promotes shops, restaurants, recreational and cultural activities.
Starlight Parade 2018
On December 1, 2018, more than 35,000 spectators are anticipated to line Third Avenue to watch
more than 100 parade entries. From marching bands to dance troops to flatbed floats and Santa on a
fire truck, the Starlight Parade brings the magic of the holidays to Chula Vista’s historic downtown.
Resolution A approves City sponsorship of LakeFest 2018, Chula Vista 4th Fest 2018, HarborFest
2018 and the 2018 Starlight Parade. Resolution B approves the filing of an application with the
County of San Diego for Community Enhancement Program funding of $20,000 for these events
during the County’s 2018-2019 Fiscal Year (LakeFest - $5,000, Chula Vista 4th Fest - $5,000,
HarborFest - $5,000, Starlight Parade - $5,000.)
Staff will identify funds for these Special Event Sponsorships as part of the development of the FY
2019 budget.
DECISION-MAKER CONFLICT
Staff has determined that the action contemplated by this item is ministerial, secretarial, manual, or
clerical in nature and, as such, does not require the City of Chula Vista Council members to make or
participate in making a governmental decision, pursuant to California Code of Regulations Title 2,
section 18704(d)(1). Consequently, this item does not present a 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 of Chula Vista 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. These events support
two Strategic Plan goals. LakeFest, Chula Vista 4
th Fest, HarborFest and the Starlight Parade
advance the Economic Vitality goal by promoting the Otay Ranch Community, the Chula Vista Elite
Athlete Training Center, the Bayfront and Third Avenue by bringing new and returning visitors to enjoy
activities, shop, and dine; The Connected Community Goal emphasizes activities, like these four
events as they enrich the community's quality of life.
CURRENT YEAR FISCAL IMPACT
There are no anticipated fiscal impacts in the current fiscal year.
ONGOING FISCAL IMPACT
If these one-time funds are awarded they will be used to help offset the cost of the events in fiscal
year 2019. Any General Fund allocations to support City-sponsored events will be considered as
part of the development of the FY 2019 budget. The goal is for each of the events to become self-
supporting signature events promoting the City of Chula Vista.
