areas, for land, air, and water conservation programs. The intent of the Youth Soccer Program was to
award grants on a competitive basis for fostering the development of youth soccer, baseball, softball,
and basketball recreation opportunities in heavily populated, low-income urban areas with a high
youth crime and unemployment rate.
On July 1, 2017, the State of California Department of Parks and Recreation Office of Grants and
Local Services conditionally awarded up to $1,000,000 for the grant to the City of Chula Vista for the
construct of an artificial turf multipurpose field for soccer and softball, field lighting and minor
improvements at Lauderbach Park subject to the recordation of a deed restriction on the property.
The deed restriction is to ensure that the property will be used for a purpose consistent with the grant
for the duration of the Contract Performance Period, as noted in Section I. Use of Facilities in the
attached Grant Contract. The Contract Performance Period for this grant is for the 20-year period of
July 1, 2017 through June 30, 2037.
DECISION-MAKER CONFLICT
Staff has reviewed the property holdings of the City Council and has found no property holdings with
500 feet of the boundaries of the property which is subject of this action. Staff is not independently
aware, and has not been informed by any Councilmember, of any other fact that may constitute a
basis for a decision maker conflict of interest in this manner.
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 action supports
the goals of a Healthy Community and a Connected Community by making park space and
recreation available for residents to enjoy. It also supports the goal of Strong and Secure
Neighborhoods by providing new opportunities for the community to utilize the park in a positive and
safe way.
CURRENT YEAR FISCAL IMPACT

developing the sports facilities at Lauderbach Park. Grant awards are not expected to occur in the
current fiscal year.
ONGOING FISCAL IMPACT
If awarded after deed restriction is recorded, staff will return to Council to appropriate grant funds.
