GETTING TO KNOW YOUR AGENDA Agenda Sections: CONSENT CALENDAR items are routine items that are not expected to prompt discussion. All items are considered for approval at the same time with one vote. Councilmembers and staff may request items be removed and members of the public may submit a speaker slip if they wish to comment on an item. Items removed from the Consent Calendar are discussed after the vote on the remaining Consent Calendar items. PUBLIC COMMENT provides the public with an opportunity to address the Council on any matter not listed on the agenda that is within the jurisdiction of the Council. In compliance with the Brown Act, the Council cannot take action on matters not listed on the agenda. PUBLIC HEARINGS are held on matters specifically required by law. The Mayor opens the public hearing and asks for presentations from staff and from the proponent or applicant involved (if applicable) in the matter under discussion. Following questions from the Councilmembers, the Mayor opens the public hearing and asks for public comments. The hearing is closed, and the City Council may discuss and take action. ACTION ITEMS are items that are expected to cause discussion and/or action by the Council but do not legally require a Public Hearing. Staff may make a presentation and Councilmembers may ask questions of staff and the involved parties before the Mayor invites the public to provide input. CLOSED SESSION may only be attended by members of the Council, support staff, and/or legal counsel. The most common purpose of a Closed Session is to avoid revealing confidential information that may prejudice the legal or negotiating position of the City or compromise the privacy interests of employees. Closed sessions may be held only as specifically authorized by law. Council Actions: RESOLUTIONS are formal expressions of opinion or intention of the Council and are usually effective immediately. ORDINANCES are laws adopted by the Council. Ordinances usually amend, repeal or supplement the Municipal Code; provide zoning specifications; or appropriate money for specific purposes. Most ordinances require two hearings: an introductory hearing, generally followed by a second hearing at the next regular meeting. Most ordinances go into effect 30 days after the final approval. PROCLAMATIONS are issued by the City to honor significant achievements by community members, highlight an event, promote awareness of community issues, and recognize City employees. 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 2 of 407 Pages 1.CALL TO ORDER 2.ROLL CALL 3.PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE TO THE FLAG AND MOMENT OF SILENCE 4.CONSENT CALENDAR (Items 4.1 through 4.9) All items listed under the Consent Calendar are considered and acted upon by one motion.

(First Reading) (4/5 Vote Required) SUMMARY In an effort to address the needs of various departments and the City's workforce, the Human Resources Department, in conjunction with the affected departments, is proposing the addition and deletion of certain classifications and positions. These changes necessitate amendments to the City’s Compensation Schedule, Classification Plan, and departmental position counts. 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 71 of 407 P a g e | 2 Staff is also recommending approval of the revised Fiscal Year 2022-2023 Compensation Schedule effective October 21, 2022, updating the list of designated filers who are required to file periodic Statements of Economic Interests (Form 700) and adoption of an ordinance amending Chula Vista Municipal Code Section 2.05.010 relating to unclassified positions. 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 Director of Development Services has reviewed the proposed activity 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; therefore, pursuant to Section 15060(c)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines, the activity is not subject to CEQA. Thus, no environmental review is required. BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION Not applicable. DISCUSSION Compensation Schedule and Classification Plan Civil Service Rule 1.02.A, which applies to the City’s classified positions, provides for necessary reviews and changes so that the City’s classification plan is kept current, and that changes in existing classes, the establishment of new classes, or the abolition of classes are properly reflected in the Classification Plan. In an effort to address the needs of various departments and the City's workforce, the Human Resources Department, in conjunction with the affected departments, is proposing certain position changes, with corresponding updates to the Classification Plan, Compensation Schedule, and authorized departmental position counts.

Chula Vista City Charter Section 500(a) requires that all unclassified positio ns not mentioned specifically in Charter Section 500(a) be adopted by ordinance. Adoption of the Ordinance will add the position title of Development Project Manager and delete the position title of Bayfront Development Project Manager from Municipal Code section 2.05.010.

Department: Development Services & Engineering Environmental Notice: Applications 1 and 2: The activity qualifies for an Exemption pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) State Guidelines Section 15301 Class 1 (Existing Facilities); Section 15303 Class 3 (New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures); Section 15304 Class 4 (Minor Alterations to Land); Section 15183 (Projects Consistent with a Community Plan or Zoning); and Section 15061(b)(3). Application 3: The activity is not a “Project” as defined under Section 15378 of the C EQA State Guidelines; therefore, pursuant to Section 15060(c)(3) no environmental review is required. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the activity qualifies for an Exemption pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the California Environmental Quality Act State Guidelines. Recommended Action Adopt a resolution authorizing the submittal of three Active Transportation Program grant applications to the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) for the (1) F Street Promenade – Phase 2, (2) Bayshore Bikeway – Lagoon Drive to H Street, and (3) Trails Master Plan projects, and state the City’s assurance to complete the projects. SUMMARY In the interest of obtaining grant funding toward roadway improvement projects and planning a citywide recreational trail system, City staff has prepared three (3) applications for the Regional Active Transportation Program – Cycle 6 grant administered by the San Diego Association of Governments (“SANDAG”). The goal of this program is to fund projects that encourage increased use of active modes of transportation, such as biking and walking, increase safety and mobility for non-motorized vehicles and 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 78 of 407 P a g e | 2 advance active transportation efforts of regional agencies to achieve greenhouse gas reduction goals. The grant applications are for (1) the F Street Promenade – Phase 2, (2) the Bayshore Bikeway – Lagoon Drive to H Street, and (3) the Trails Master Plan. Additional funding has been made available for the ATP program at the regional level; therefore, staff is returning to Council recommending the application of these additional projects. The City was not successful in the first round of grant applications for the Cycle 6 of the Regional Active Transportation Program. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW Applications 1 and 2: The Director of Development Services has reviewed the proposed activity for compliance with CEQA and has determined that the activity qualifies for a Categorical Exemption pursuant to the CEQA State Guidelines Section 15301 Class 1 (Existing Facilities); Section 15303 Class 3 (New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures); Section 15304 Class 4 (Minor Alterations to Land); Section 15183 (Projects Consistent with a Community Plan or Zoning); and Section 15061(b)(3). Thus, no further environmental review is required. Application 3: The Director of Development Services has reviewed the proposed activity for compliance with CEQA and has determined that the activity is not a “Project” as defined under Section 15378 of the State CEQA Guidelines because it will not result in a physical change in the environment; therefore, pursuant to Section 15060(c)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines, the activity is not subject to CEQA. In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Director of Development Services has also determined that the activity qualifies for an Exemption pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the California Environmental Quality Act State Guidelines. Thus, no environmental review is required. BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION Not applicable. DISCUSSION On March 21, 2022, the California Transportation Commission (“CTC”) announced the Active Transportation Program (“ATP”) - Cycle 6 Call for Projects. The purpose of the ATP is to increase the roadway usage by all active modes of transportation, giving preference to areas of high pedestrian and bicycle activity, as well as disadvantaged communities. Cycle 6 is expected to include about $854M in ATP funding made up of Federal funding, State SB1 and State Highway Account (“SHA”) funding. The funding/programming years include the 23/24, 24/25, 25/26, and 26/27 fiscal years. At the September 8, 2022 SANDAG Mobility Working Group meeting, local agencies were made aware that the ATP – Cycle 6 program is receiving a significant increase in funding for the regional competition (from $23.6M to $61.9M) and that SANDAG extended the application deadline to October 31, 2022. On June 7, 2022, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2022-133, which authorized the submittal of ATP – Cycle 6 applications for F Street Promenade – Phase 1 (Bay Blvd to Broadway) and Bayshore Bikeway – E Street to Lagoon Drive. With the additional regional funding recently made available, staff recommends that the City apply for additional grant funding for the projects as described below: Proposed Project 1: F Street Promenade – Phase 2 Project Location: Overall Project – F Street (Bay Boulevard to Third Avenue) 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 79 of 407 P a g e | 3 Phase 2 – F Street (Broadway to Fourth Avenue) Project Description: The goal of the F Street Promenade project is to develop a balanced, connected, safe, and convenient transportation network designed to serve all users, regardless of their age or ability, that will also provide multi-modal access (via walking, biking, and transit) to downtown Chula Vista on Third Avenue, the Chula Vista Civic Center, the E Street Transit Center, and the Chula Vista Bayfront. The need for the project is identified in the City’s General Plan, the Urban Core Specific Plan, and the F Street Promenade Streetscape Study (March 2018): https://www.chulavistaca.gov/departments/development-services/planning/f-street-master-plan Proposed improvements include enhancing pedestrian and bicycle facilities by expanding the existing five - foot wide sidewalk to create a 12’ wide multi-use pathway on both sides of the street, as provided in Attachment 1. The project will also include landscaped and lighted parkways, bulb-outs, new or improved crosswalks, and the undergrounding of overhead utilities. The added space for these improvements is within the existing street width east of Ash Avenue. A transition for the vehicular travel lanes would still be required just east of Broadway. On-street parking would remain. Since ATP requires all projects to be completed within four years of being awarded funding, staff recommends applying for grant funding to cover preliminary engineering (“PE”), right-of-way (“R/W”), and construction costs (“CON”) for only Phase 2 of the F Street Promenade project (from Broadway to Fourth Avenue). There is a $4,148,570 local match provided by the Utility Underground Program 20A funds in addition to $70,000 in CIP STM-0407 and $410,075 in local TransNet funds. Total - Estimated Cost: $36,109,944 (PE, R/W, UUD, CON) Phase 2 - Estimated Cost: $16,103,683 (PE, R/W, UUD, CON) (ATP Contribution: $10,842,253/Local Contribution: $4,628,645) Proposed Project 2: Bayshore Bikeway - Lagoon Drive to H Street Project Location: MTS Inactive Coronado Branch Line Railroad Corridor parallel to and west of Bay Blvd between Lagoon Drive and H Street Project Description The goal of the Bayshore Bikeway –Lagoon Drive to H Street project (Attachment 2) is to provide a critical gap segment closure of bikeway for the overall Bayshore Bikeway route that continues through Chula Vista along the 24-mile perimeter of the San Diego Bay. This project will install a Class I Separated Bikeway that provides improved safety for cyclists traveling to and from Chula Vista along the Ba yshore Bikeway (from National City) and along the Sweetwater Bike Path (from Bonita). This project will also encourage travel to Chula Vista’s Bayfront and Downtown areas. The need for the project is identified in the City’s Bayfront Master Plan, the Bayshore Bikeway Master Plan, and the Chula Vista Active Transportation Plan. https://www.sandag.org/uploads/projectid/projectid_63_5152.pdf https://www.chulavistaca.gov/departments/engineering/active-transportation-plan 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 80 of 407 P a g e | 4 Proposed improvements include enhancing bicycle facilities by providing at least a 12’ minimum to 15’ wide Class I Separated Bikeway along the existing inactive MTS Coronado Branch Line Railroad Corridor approximately 200’ to the west of, and parallel to, Bay Boulevard. The presence of the Collins Aerospace Facility restricts any widening of Bay Boulevard along this corridor. MTS has agreed to the addition of the proposed bikeway along the railroad corridor, similarly, to actions they have approved in Imperial Beach and South San Diego segments. A Construction and Maintenance Agreement between the City and MTS was amended in 2021 to include the proposed improvements still needed within their railroad corridor between E Street and H Street (Attachment 3). On October 4, 2022, MTS provided the City a letter of support for the Bayshore Bikeway – Segment 6B project (Attachment 4). Since ATP requires all projects to be completed within four years of being awarded funding, staff recommends applying for grant funding to cover preliminary engineering, right-of-way, and construction costs. If this grant application is approved, future Council action will be taken on creating a CIP for project accounting purposes. Total - Estimated Cost: $4,818,000 (PE, R/W, CON) (ATP Contribution: $4,818,000) Proposed Project 3: Trails Master Plan Project Location: Citywide Project Description The goal of the Trails Master Plan is to develop a city-wide comprehensive trail system that will identify existing and planned facilities within the City’s open space areas. This network of hiking trails, paths, and off-road bikeways will connect Chula Vista’s neighborhoods with its numerous parks and recreation facilities as well as link to local and regional circulation systems in adjacent communities. The Trails Master Plan would also complement the City’s Active Transportation Plan (approved in May 2020) which guides future pedestrian and bicycle improvements along the City’s roadways. Background There currently exists a mix of planned and authorized trails as well as many unofficial trails that have been pioneered through city open space areas and, in some cases, within sensitive habitat that is damaging natural resources. While some existing trails are recognized by the City in various communities, the Trails Master Plan will formalize a network to add some of the currently unofficial trails and close off others to allow the repair of plant communities within these sensitive habitat areas. Both the City’s General Plan and Parks & Recreation Master Plan acknowledge the need for a trail system within the City: • General Plan - Policy E 11.4 states, “Prepare and implement a City-wide Trails Master Plan that defines staging and access areas, trail types, standards, and siting criteria, consistent with the Greenbelt Master Plan and the Chula Vista MSCP Subarea Plan, including the placement of appropriate limitations on public access outside of designated trails and staging and access areas.” • Parks & Recreation Master Plan (“PRMP”) - Policy 1.30 reads, “Enhance access to the parks and recreation system by continuing to grow the citywide network of open space, trails, paths, and bikeways linking park and recreation facility locations. 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 81 of 407 P a g e | 5 Action Item: Develop a comprehensive trails master plan that identifies existing & planned facilities citywide. Action Item: Encourage the development of trails, paths, and bikeways within master-planned communities that not only link the community’s parks and recreation facilities but also provide connections to parks and recreation facilities in adjacent communities, including the Otay Valley River Park.” A comprehensive trails system supports City initiatives such as Healthy Chula Vista and the City’s Climate Action Plan goals by promoting physical activity and alternative modes of transportation and develops awareness of City’s urban forest and open space. Additionally, creating a citywide trails master plan will assist in overall development along the eastern portion of the City. As these planned communities begin to start construction, having the context of where these citywide trails will be located will assist in overall development patterns, park space connectivity and connecting roadways. The connecting roadways will include all modes of transportation as development continues to occur in the eastern portion of the City. The mountain biking community expressed a strong desire to formalize the many unofficial existing trails throughout the City during public outreach meetings and correspondence as staff was seeking input on the 2018 update to the PRMP. Staff acknowledged the need for this growing recreational sport and the need for a formal trail system, creating Policy 1.30, mentioned above. PRMP Figure 4-4, Greenbelt / Open Space & Network Trails / Paths also notes the intention to develop the Master Plan (Attachment 5). Pilot Project In July 2020, the City of Chula Vista embarked on a pilot project within Snake and Rice Canyons in the Rancho del Rey community. The pilot project formalized a loop trail and allowed the official use of mountain bikes on existing trails and recognizes some previously unofficial trail segments, while closing off others to reestablish sensitive habitat. On September 17, 2020, staff presented an update to the planned Master Plan and the Snake and Rice Canyon Loop Trail Pilot Project to the Parks & Recreation Commission, and while no formal recommendation was provided, the commissioners expressed full support of the projects. Staff has been documenting operations and maintenance costs associated with the pilot project and will be bringing forward its findings to City Council at a meeting later this fiscal year. Master Plan If awarded Cycle 6 funding, staff will issue a request for proposals from qualified consultants to prepare the Trails Master Plan. Staff will work with the selected consultant to develop a scope of work (including but not limited to, an existing inventory of trails, goals and objectives, framework of the trail system, proposed alignments, trailheads, staging areas and linkages, guidelines for design and construction, operations and management, program implementation, etc.) and schedule to prepare the plan. Total - Estimated Cost: $500,000 ($400,000 Master Plan Preparation/$100,000 CEQA Analysis) (ATP Contribution: $500,000) DECISION-MAKER CONFLICT Proposed Project Application 1: Staff has reviewed the property holdings of the City Council and has found that, Councilmember McCann has real property holdings within 1,000 feet, but beyond 500 feet, of the boundaries of the property which is the subject of this action. 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 82 of 407 P a g e | 6 Staff has determined that the decision could change the parcel’s development potential, income-producing potential, highest and best use, character, and/or market value. Consequently, pursuant to California Code of Regulations Title 2, sections 18700 and 18702.2(a)(8), this item presents a disqualifying real property- related financial conflict of interest under the Political Reform Act (Cal. Gov't Code § 87100, et seq.) for the above-identified member. 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. Proposed Project Application 2: Staff has reviewed the property holdings of the City Council members and has found no property holdings within 1,000 feet of the boundaries of the property which is the subject of this action. Consequently, this item does not present a disqualifying real property-related financial conflict of interest under California Code of Regulations Title 2, section 18702.2(a)(7) or (8), for purposes of 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. Proposed Project Application 3: Staff has reviewed the decision contemplated by this action and has determined that it is not site-specific and consequently, the real property holdings of the City Council members do not create 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. CURRENT-YEAR FISCAL IMPACT There is no current year fiscal impact to the General Fund or the Development Services Fund as a result of this action. If a grant is awarded, staff will return to Council with recommendations to accept and appropriate grant funds. ONGOING FISCAL IMPACT Proposed Project Application 1: F Street: Upon construction completion, the project will require routine maintenance and landscape maintenance along the F Street parkway areas. Proposed Project Application 2: Bayshore Bikeway: Upon construction completion, the bike path will be maintained per the Bayshore Bikeway Cooperative Agreement adopted by Council Resolution 9035, dated October 30, 1978. CIP STM-369 Bike Facilities Gap Project Program is a TransNet funded maintenance project that is currently used for bike facility maintenance citywide, including Bayshore Bikeway. Proposed Project Application 3: Trails Master Plan: There is no ongoing fiscal impact to the General Fund or Development Services Fund as a result of this action. If the grant is awarded, staff will return to Council to appropriate grant funds. ATTACHMENTS 1. F Street Promenade – Phase 2 Exhibit 2.

Our previous ATP letter of support for Cycle 5 was for the segment north of Lagoon Drive and we are hopeful that with the recent substantial increase in State ATP funding, that it will be approved for funding. With the Cycle 6 application, Chula Vista would be able complete the Bayshore Bikeway ahead of the planned grand opening in summer of 2025 of the 1,600-room Gaylord Resort Hotel & Convention Center. This area is currently undergoing a complete redevelopment and active transportation is a big component as it is less than 0.5-mile away from regional light rail and transit centers. The Bayshore Bikeway is a planned 24-mile-long bike path around San Diego Bay. As of today, more than half of the bike path has been completed. With the strong community support for this facility, combined with an agreement between MTS and the City of Chula Vista to use the inactive railroad corridor, this project makes the best use of a linear inactive railroad corridor to provide the most direct route through Chula Vista for commuters and recreational riders. The five cities that form the route for this bike path, as well as the other regional agencies, strongly support completion of this facility and have noticed increasing ecotourism as well as increased ridership which typically exceeds 600 per day. Thank you for your consideration of this important project.

Recommended Action Adopt a resolution accepting $510,000 from the California Office of Traffic Safety and appropriating $385,095 to the Police Grants Section of the Federal Grants Fund for the Selective Traffic Enforcement Program. (4/5 Vote Required) SUMMARY The California Office of Traffic Safety has awarded $510,000 to the Police Department for the Selective Traffic Enforcement Program. The goal of this program is to reduce the number of persons killed and injured in traffic crashes involving alcohol and other primary collisions factors. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The Director of Development Services has reviewed the proposed activity 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 it will not result in a physical change in the environment; therefore, pursuant to Section 15060(c)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines, the activity is not subject to CEQA. Thus, no environmental review is required. BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION Not applicable. 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 98 of 407 P a g e | 2 DISCUSSION The California Office of Traffic Safety's (OTS) mission is to effectively and efficiently administer traffic safety grant funds to reduce traffic deaths, injuries, and economic losses. The Police Department has been awarded various OTS grants, including the Serious Traffic Offenders Program (STOP), Comprehensive Traffic Safety Program, DUI Enforcement Program, and Selective Traffic Enforcement Program (STEP), which have enhanced the Traffic Unit by funding new positions, traffic enforcement operations and supplies/equipment used during traffic enforcement operations. The Police Department has received funding from the California Office of Traffic Safety for the Selective Traffic Enforcement Program. Throughout the one-year grant period (10/1/2022 to 9/30/2023), traffic enforcement operations will be conducted on an overtime basis. Grant-funded operations include DUI/driver license checkpoints, DUI saturation patrols and collaborative DUI enforcement to reduce the number of persons killed or injured in alcohol-involved collisions. Distracted driving operations will focus on drivers using hand-held cell phones and texting. Other traffic enforcement operations include motorcycle safety enforcement operations, along with bicycle and pedestrian enforcement operations. Additionally, traffic safety educational presentations will be conducted throughout the grant period, with a goal to reach out to community members, on the topics of distracted driving, DUI, speed, bicycle and pedestrian safety, seatbelts and child passenger safety. Funds provided by this grant will also be utilized for training, checkpoint supplies used during the traffic operations and crash data retrieval software. 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. CURRENT-YEAR FISCAL IMPACT Approval of the resolution will result in the acceptance of $510,000 of grant funding from the California Office of Traffic Safety for the Selective Traffic Enforcement Program. Since the grant period crosses between two fiscal years, $385,095 will be appropriated to the fiscal year 2022/2023 budget and $124,905 will be included in the proposed fiscal year 2023/2024 budget. Specifically, for the current year budget, $374,716 will be appropriated to the personnel category and $10,379 to the supplies and services category of the Police Grants Section of the Federal Grants Fund. The funding from the California Office of Traffic Safety will completely offset the costs of this grant award, resulting in no net fiscal impact. ONGOING FISCAL IMPACT There is no ongoing fiscal impact for accepting these grant funds. 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 99 of 407 P a g e | 3 ATTACHMENTS None.

Googins City Attorney 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 101 of 407 v . 0 03 P a g e | 1 October 25, 2022 ITEM TITLE Agreement: Approve a Two-Party Agreement with KTUA for Design, Pre-Construction, and Construction Administration for Eucalyptus Park Renovations Report Number: 22-0261 Location: 436 C Street Department: Development Services Environmental Notice: The Project qualifies for a Categorical Exemption pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) State Guidelines Section 15301 Class 1 (Existing Facilities), Section 15303 class 3 (New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures), and Section 15304 Class 4 (Minor Alterations to Land). Recommended Action Adopt a resolution approving a two-party agreement with KTUA for design, pre-construction, and construction administration for Eucalyptus Park renovations. SUMMARY Eucalyptus Park (Project) is a 19.69-acre neighborhood park which serves the northwestern area of the City of Chula Vista. Eucalyptus Park stretches along C Street, between 5th Avenue and 4th Avenue (Attachment 1, Project Location). The Project will create a Master Plan for approval by City Council, develop 100% construction documents, including specifications, and provide construction administration throughout the renovations of Eucalyptus Park. Renovating this existing park would provide an underserved community with expanded recreation offerings and renovated amenities. Funding for the Project is made possible through the Statewide Parks Program Grant which the City received in March 2021. Construction of the Project will be completed under a separate solicitation and contract. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The Director of Development Services has reviewed the proposed project for compliance with CEQA and has determined that the Project qualifies for a Categorical Exemption pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15301 Class 1 (Existing Facilities), Section 15303 Class 3 (New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures), and Section 15304 Class 4 (Minor Alterations to Land). Thus, no further environmental review is required. 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 102 of 407 P a g e | 2 BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION Not applicable. DISCUSSION Background Through a recent Call for Projects by Statewide Parks Program Round 4 the City of Chula Vista (City) applied for and was successful in its application to receive state funding for the design and construction of the Eucalyptus Park renovations. On February 2, 2022, the City entered into Grant Contract SW-37-015 for a total not to exceed of $7,140,000 for the Eucalyptus Park improvements, including but not limited to, the design, pre-construction services, and construction of a portion of Eucalyptus Park and renovations to the existing recreation center. The services subject to this agreement include design, pre-construction services and construction administration. The construction of the park improvements and the design/construction of the recreation center renovations will be completed under a separate solicitation and contract. In accordance with the terms of the grant, the park shall open to the public in March 2025. Project Objectives The Project objectives are to further develop the conceptual landscape plan which was submitted as part of the Statewide Parks Program Round 4 grant application into a Parks Master Plan. The Parks Master Plan will develop and identify the locations of focal recreation features, improve pedestrian connection between the lower and upper section of the park and improve visibility into the park for public safety. Upon receipt of City approval and notification to proceed, complete construction documents, including specifications, will be produced along with a project cost estimate for City review. Upon receipt of City approval, a 100% construction document set will be generated for bidding purposes. Construction administration during the renovation of the park is required. Consultant Services Selection Process On August 26, 2022, staff issued a Request for Proposal No. CIP PRK0340 for design, pre-construction services, and construction administration. The document was publicly noticed in accordance with the City’s bidding procedures. A total of nine (9) firms responded by the due date of September 23, 2022. A selection Committee comprised of four City staff members ranked the proposals based on pre-determined criteria. The Selection Committee ranked the firms and selected KTUA (Consultant) as the preferred consultant based on their presentation, project’s understanding and methodology, past projects with the City, personnel experience, and their vision for Eucalyptus Park. Scope of Work The scope of work includes the preparation of a Project Master Plan, 100% Construction Documents, and Construction Administration. The proposed Design Project Schedule anticipates the Consultant’s work taking approximately 12 months. 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 103 of 407 P a g e | 3 Contract Payment The total cost of the contract for consulting services for the Project is $516,433. DECISION-MAKER CONFLICT Staff has reviewed the property holdings of the City Council members and has found that, Council member John McCann has real property holdings within 1,000 feet, but beyond 500 feet, of the boundaries of the property which is the subject of this action. Staff has determined that the decision would change the parcel’s development potential, income-producing potential, highest and best use, character, and/or market value. Consequently, pursuant to California Code of Regulations Title 2, sections 18700 and 18702.2(a)(8), this item presents a disqualifying real property-related financial conflict of interest under the Political Reform Act (Cal. Gov't Code § 87100, et seq.) for the above-identified member. 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. CURRENT-YEAR FISCAL IMPACT There is no current year fiscal impact to the General Fund or Development Services Fund as a result of this action. City staff time and Consultant costs will be paid from State Grants Fund, Grant Contract SW-37-015, Projects PRK0340 and GGV0262. The project budget is summarized in the table below. Description Amount Design & Other Soft Costs $ 1,190,000 Construction Costs Perimeter Path & Fitness Equipment 650,000 Dog Park/Stormwater Channel Improvements 600,000 Skate/Scooter Plaza/Bike Skills Features & Playground Equipment 800,000 Interactive Water Feature 800,000 Recreation Building Renovations 750,000 Lighted Artificial Turf Multipurpose Field 1,100,000 Lighting/Drinking Fountains/Fencing 450,000 Lighted Pickleball Courts 550,000 Parking & Surfacing 250,000 Construction Cost Subtotal 5,950,000 Total Cost 7,140,000 Grant Funds Awarded $ 7,140,000 Per Council Resolution No. 2022-100, Fiscal Year 2021/2022 budget was amended to establish a Capital Improvement Program (CIP) project, “Eucalyptus Park (PRK0340)”. The total cost of the proposed contract for consulting services for the Project is $516,433. Sufficient funds have been appropriated to PRK0340 for this purpose. ONGOING FISCAL IMPACT There is no ongoing fiscal impact to the General Fund or Development Services Fund as a result of this action. City staff time and Consultant costs will be paid from the State Grants Fund, Grant Contract SW-37-015, Projects PRK0340 and GGV0262. 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 104 of 407 P a g e | 4 Per Council Resolution No. 2022-100, Fiscal Year 2021/2022 budget was amended to establish a CIP project, “Eucalyptus Park (PRK0340)” and appropriate funds. Upon completion, the General Fund will be responsible for the ongoing operation and maintenance of the park. While this is an existing park, the grant funds will significantly increase the quality of amenities at Eucalyptus Park, and it is likely that these new amenities will result in increased General Fund support costs. Additional analysis of ongoing maintenance costs will be presented in conjunction with the construction contract award. ATTACHMENTS 1. Project Location Map 2.

This Agreement shall commence on the earlier to occur of the Effective Date or Consultant’s commencement of the Required Services hereunder, and shall terminate when the Parties have complied with all their obligations hereunder; provided, however, provisions which expressly survive termination shall remain in effect. 2. COMPENSATION 2.1 General. For satisfactory performance of the Required Services, City agrees to compensate Consultant in the amount(s) and on the terms set forth in Exhibit A, Section 4.

Consultant understands and agrees that payment to the Consultant or reimbursement for any Consultant costs related to the performance of Required Services does not constitute a City final decision regarding whether such payment or cost reimbursement is allowable and eligible for payment under this Agreement, nor does it constitute a waiver of any violation by Consultant of the terms of 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 120 of 407 4 City of Chula Vista Agreement No.: 2022-174 Consultant Name: KTUA Rev. 9/15/20 this Agreement.

A boundary and topographical survey shall be prepared to accurately depict existing conditions of the project site. KTUA team shall prepare a master plan incorporating the community’s list of desired amenities listed in the recently awarded grant for Eucalyptus park. Two public workshops shall be held with the community and stakeholders to refine and develop a final master plan, with the City of Chula Vista’s approval. P resentations to the Parks and Recreation Commission and City Council will follow once there is an approved master plan. Task 1A: Project Kickoff and Surveys Kickoff Meeting KTUA team shall organize and attend a kick-off meeting with City staff and other relevant stakeholders at the project site to discuss project goals, schedule, process, and budget. The meeting will allow collaboration between the design team members and City staff to identify key issues, opportunities, and potential roadblocks affecting the planning and design of the new park and improvements. Each design team member shall examine and analyze the existing site and its adjacent context for all factors relevant to their individual design process and plan preparation. Site photographs and notes shall be taken in the field to inform later design efforts Topographic Survey KTUA team’s civil engineer (Hunsaker), shall have an aerial topographic survey performed to establish existing conditions and elevations to be used as a base map. Survey shall include tie-in to the City of Chula Vista control network and be prepared at minimum 1”=20’ scale with 1-ft max contours. Survey shall collect all site culture, curb lines, grade breaks, tree locations including diameters, corners of structures, visible utilities, etc. Limits of survey are within the park boundaries, including critical hardscape locations for design and tie- ins such as curb, streets, manholes, etc. Underground Utility Survey Hunsaker shall provide utility location services to identify and mark out all utilities of record as well as try to identify any potential non-record utilities within the project limits of work so they can be located and reflected on the final topographic and utility survey. Acquire Utility As-builts from Utility Companies Hunsaker and Michael Wall Engineering (MWE), shall contact the relevant utility and franchise companies to obtain as built information. SDG&E and ISP asset maps for the park and the associated area shall be requested to establish the basis of available infrastructure for use in future build outs. Hunsaker shall acquire horizontal and vertical utility information from the utility companies, and review record drawings provided by utility companies and franchise utilities to ascertain system location, depth, size, and type. Incorporate As-Built Information into Base Files Hunsaker shall incorporate the utility information into the project base files, reconciling with the topographic survey and site photos. 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 129 of 407 13 City of Chula Vista Agreement No.: 2022-174 Consultant Name: KTUA Rev. 9/15/20 Boundary Survey Hunsaker shall perform a Boundary Survey to establish the exterior property lines and right-of-way limits of the project site. The boundary survey will be based on public records reflective of the fee title property reported in the title report to be produced for the project. The boundary survey will be based on re- establishing Parcel 1 from Parcel 4619 together with a portion of Lot 14 of Map No. 505 and the monumentation reflected on said parcel map together with other public records of local monumentation perpetuated through the years. The survey will be tied to the required City of Chula vista Geodetic Survey network reflected in record of Survey No. 14841. Title Report and Encumbrance Hunsaker shall coordinate the preparation of a title report from a title company reflective of the project site and shall draft easements and encumbrances from said title report into a land base map. Geotechnical Investigation A geotechnical investigation shall be performed by Ninyo & Moore which will include a subsurface investigation in the areas of the proposed improvements. Ninyo & Moore shall utilize a drilling rig to excavate seven (7) geotechnical borings across the site. The borings will extend to depths of approximately 10-15 feet bgs in the areas of the play equipment, pickleball courts, splash pad, and other areas to receive improvements. Recreation field sport light poles will require borings of 20 feet bgs with the exception of one 50-foot boring depth at one sport light pole. The objective of these borings is to determine the in-situ engineering characteristics of the soils and provide remedial grading recommendations for each location, and to provide data to complete a liquefaction analysis. Each excavation will be logged and sampled for laboratory testing by the geologist. Infiltration Investigation Due to the anticipated depth of groundwater, Ninyo & Moore anticipates that stormwater infiltration may not be feasible, therefore infiltration testing was not included in their scope of work. Since groundwater may be at depths of 9 feet or shallower and there needs to be at least 10 feet of distance between the bottom of an infiltration device and the top of groundwater, Ninyo & Moore will coordinate with Hunsaker to look into the need for filtration installation in lieu of infiltration devices. Lab Testing Soil samples recovered by the geologist during the geo-technical investigation will be taken to Ninyo & Moore’s laboratory, where testing shall be completed to address index soil characteristics for both soil classification and correlation with soil mechanical characteristics (i.e., strength and compressibility). Liquefaction Analysis Ninyo & Moore shall conduct a liquefaction study at the site. Analysis of the potential for liquefaction and related settlement will be completed in areas of park improvements using the blow count data from SPT testing to a depth of 50 feet bgs. One of the geotechnical borings, to be performed near the location of a sports field light pole, will be extended to a depth of 50 feet bgs. The borings will be excavated utilizing mud rotary drilling techniques. This includes the permit application, processing, and the fees for the County DEH boring permit. Geotechnical Report of Findings with Recommendations Following completion of the field investigation and laboratory testing, Ninyo & Moore shall prepare a report addressing: 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 130 of 407 14 City of Chula Vista Agreement No.: 2022-174 Consultant Name: KTUA Rev. 9/15/20 Geotechnical conditions encountered on the site All potential geologic and geotechnical site hazards Remedial grading recommendations Foundation recommendations for the playground equipment, fencing, light poles, and all other proposed park structures Pavement section recommendations for the sidewalks, pickleball courts, parking lot and other proposed pavement types Recommendations for development of stormwater BMPs Reporting shall be supported by graphics (including boring logs and cross-sections) as necessary to support discussions in the text of the report. The report shall be sealed by a State of California Certified Engineering Geologist and Registered Geotechnical Engineer. Review and Assess Potential Utility Concerns Hunsaker shall prepare a detailed topographic survey with all existing site features documented including above and below-grade utilities. As part of the survey preparation, Hunsaker will acquire as -built utility drawings from the City and all relevant utility companies to incorporate in the final CAD base file. Once all utilities are documented in the project base file, all utility concerns relating to existing utility conditions and potential future conflicts with proposed project improvements will be examined and a summary graphic prepared to illustrate the locations of each utility concern and/or potential conflict. Review and Assess Site Drainage and Soils A geotechnical investigation shall be performed by Ninyo & Moore to ascertain existing soil conditions and characteristics and recommended improvement footings and paving sections. Site drainage will be addressed considering filtration investigation to develop recommendations for the additional impervious areas utilizing the City of Chula Vista BMP Manual. Each area will be analyzed to design the most cost - effective solution for water quality. Review and Assess Existing Vegetation During the initial site kick-off meeting and other site meetings, KTUA team shall inventory and assess all existing vegetation for health, structure, form, maintenance needs/requirements, toxicity, invasiveness, and all other factors relevant to the design process.

Recommended Action Adopt a resolution approving a sole source purchase agreement with South Coast Fire Equipment for two Pierce Fire Engine Pumper Apparatuses and one Tiller Drawn Aerial in the amount of $3,986,966.63 and a 10-year lease-purchase agreement with JP Morgan Chase Bank for said purchase. SUMMARY The Chula Vista Fire Department delivers Fire, Rescue and Emergency Medical Services to Chula Vista residents, visitors, and employees daily. Emergency response service delivery is provided with several different types of apparatus, including triple combination pumper/fire engines, aerial ladder trucks, a heavy rescue, brush engines and command vehicles. With increased development, the City must expand its service delivery capability. The requested two engines and one tiller drawn aerial will be deployed at a future fire station within Otay Ranch Village 8 West and a future fire station on the Bayfront. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW 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. 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 174 of 407 P a g e | 2 BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION Not applicable. DISCUSSION The Chula Vista Fire Department delivers Fire, Rescue and Emergency Medical Services to Chula Vista residents, visitors, and employees daily. Emergency response service delivery is provided with several different types of apparatus, including triple combination pumper/fire engines, aerial ladder trucks, a heavy rescue, brush engines and command vehicles. With increased development, the City must expand its service delivery capability. The requested two engines and one tiller drawn aerial will be deployed at a future fire station within Otay Ranch Village 8 West and a future fire station on the Bayfront. As these apparatus are required to serve new development, the purchase will be made using Public Facilities Development Impact Fee (PFDIF) funds. The purchase of the two fire engines and one tiller drawn aerial will be a sole source purchase with South Coast Fire Equipment for the Pierce manufactured fire apparatus, pursuant to Chula Vista Municipal Code section 2.56.070.B.4 (unique compatibility requirements). The Fire Department uses Pierce Manufacturing to purchase frontline operational emergency response vehicles for several critical reasons: 1. Equipment Standardization: providing the same type of emergency response apparatus is critical to provide a standard approach to training all personnel. This ensures that our personnel can operate fire apparatus at a competent level while under duress of emergency response. 2. Safety: Fire personnel are consistently moved from one fire station to another. Maintaining a fleet of fire apparatus that operate consistently throughout our fleet ensures driver/operators and firefighters can operate and locate equipment in an efficient and timely manner while working in emergency situations. The Fire Department has received a quote from South Coast Fire Equipment (See Attachment #1) for the purchase of two (2) Pierce Arrow XT Pierce’s Ultimate Configuration (PUC) Pumpers for the quoted purchase price total of $2,013,361.02, and one Tiller Drawn Aerial for the quoted price of $1,783,750.06. The Fire Department is recommending a 5% overage to account for any change order needs in the manufacturing process, bringing the total to $3,986,966.63. A 10-year lease purchase is the recommended purchase method from staff for these fire apparatus through the City’s Master Financing Agreement with JP Morgan Chase Bank. The interest rate quoted by JP Morgan is 3.805%: however, this rate is subject to change based on market conditions until the City locks the rate at the time of final agreement execution. The quoted interest rate results in an estimated biannual payment of $273,263.75. The total purchase price, including financing charges, is estimated to total $4,918,747.50 (assuming interest charges totaling $931,780.87). The first lease payment for the apparatus will be made in fiscal year 2024. As a result, no appropriation is recommended at this time. Lease payments will be included in future annual PFDIF budget appropriations. Equipment to outfit the apparatus is not included in the agreement with South Coast Fire Equipment and will be a future expense. An appropriation request for this purpose will be made once the delivery timeline for the apparatus is determined. As with the apparatus, outfitting costs will be borne solely by the PFDIF fund. 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 175 of 407 P a g e | 3 DECISION-MAKER CONFLICT Staff has reviewed the decision contemplated by this action and has determined that it is not site-specific and consequently, the real property holdings of the City Council members do not create 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. CURRENT-YEAR FISCAL IMPACT There is no fiscal impact to the General Fund. The total cost to purchase two (2) fire engines and one (1) tiller drawn aerial will be funded from the Fire Suppression component of the PFDIF Fund. The order will be placed with South Cost Fire Equipment upon Council approval. Lead time on delivery of apparatus is approximately 28 months for the engines and 31 months for the tiller. Payment for the apparatus will be made at the time they are ordered by JP Morgan Chase Bank under the 10-year lease purchase agreement. The first lease payment for the apparatus will be made in fiscal year 2024. As a result, no appropriation is recommended at this time. Lease payments will be included in future annual PFDIF budget appropriations. ONGOING FISCAL IMPACT Upon delivery and being placed into service at the Village 8 West and Bayfront fire stations annual operating and maintenance costs will need to be added to the Fire Department’s budget. The Village 8 West fire station is expected to go into service in September of 2023 and the Bayfront fire station is expected to go into service in May of 2025. Both of these fire stations have been accounted for in the City’s Long Term Financial Forecast including staffing, equipment, and operating costs. ATTACHMENTS 1.

Re: Lease Schedule No. 1000149192 dated November 10, 2022 together with its Master Lease-Purchase Agreement dated as of August 15, 2016 by and between the above-named Lessee and the above-named Lessor. Sir/Madam: I have acted as counsel to Lessee with respect to the Lease Schedule and its Addenda, the Master Lease-Purchase Agreement and its Addenda, and all other agreements described above or related thereto (collectively, the "Agreements") and various related matters, and in this capacity have reviewed a duplicate original or certified copy of the Agreements and such other documents as I have deemed necessary for the purposes of this opinion. Based upon the examination of such documents, it is my opinion that: 1. Lessee is a political subdivision of the State of CA (the "State") duly organized, existing and operating under the Constitution and laws of the State. 2. Lessee is authorized and has power under State law to enter into all of the Agreements, and to carry out its obligations thereunder and the transactions contemplated thereby. 3. The Agreements and all other documents related thereto have been duly authorized, approved and executed by and on behalf of Lessee, and each of the Agreements is a valid and binding contract of Lessee enforceable in accordance with its terms, except to the extent limited by State and Federal laws affecting creditor’s remedies and by bankruptcy, reorganization or other laws of general application relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights. 4. The authorization, approval and execution of the Agreements and all other proceedings of Lessee relating to the transactions contemplated thereby have been performed in accordance with all applicable Local, State and Federal laws (including open meeting laws and public bidding and property acquisition laws). 5. To the best of my knowledge, there is no litigation or proceeding pending before any court, administrative agency or governmental body, that challenges: the organization or existence of Lessee; the authority of its officers; the proper authorization, approval and execution of any of the Agreements or any documents relating thereto; the appropriation of monies to make payments under the Agreements for the current fiscal year; or the ability of Lessee otherwise to perform its obligations under the Agreements and the transactions contemplated thereby. 6. Lessee is a political subdivision of the State as referred to in Section 103 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the related regulations and rulings thereunder. Lessor, its Assignee and any of their assigns may rely upon this opinion. Very truly yours, Attorney 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 195 of 407 160601-V2 LEASE SCHEDULE ADDENDUM (Self Insurance) Lessee: CITY OF CHULA VISTA Lease Schedule No: 1000149192 Reference is made to the above Lease Schedule as amended ("Schedule") and to the Master Lease-Purchase Agreement identified therein as amended ("Master Lease"), both of which are by and between JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A.

Department of the TreasuryInternal Revenue Service CenterOgden, UT 84201 Private delivery services. You can use certain private delivery services (PDS) designated by the IRS to meet the “timely mailing as timely filing” rule for tax returns. Go to IRS.gov/PDS for the current list of designated services. The PDS can tell you how to get written proof of the mailing date. For the IRS mailing address to use if you're using PDS, go to IRS.gov/PDSstreetAddresses. PDS can’t deliver items to P.O. boxes. You must use the U.S. Postal Service to mail any item to an IRS P.O. box address. Other Forms That May Be Required For rebating arbitrage (or paying a penalty in lieu of arbitrage rebate) to the federal government, use Form 8038-T, Arbitrage Rebate, Yield Reduction and Penalty in Lieu of Arbitrage Rebate. For private activity bonds, use Form 8038, Information Return for Tax-Exempt Private Activity Bond Issues. Rounding to Whole Dollars You may show the money items on this return as whole-dollar amounts. To round, drop amounts under 50 cents and increase amounts from 50 to 99 cents to the next dollar (for example, $1.39 becomes $1 and $2.50 becomes $3). If two or more amounts must be added to figure the amount to enter on a line, include cents when adding the amounts and round off only the total. Definitions Bond. This is any obligation, including bond, note, commercial paper, installment purchase agreement, or financing lease. Taxable bond. This is any bond the interest on which is not excludable from gross income under section 103. Taxable bonds include tax credit bonds and direct pay bonds. Tax-exempt bond. This is any obligation, including a bond, installment purchase CAUTION ! agreement, or financial lease, on which the interest is excluded from income under section 103. Tax-exempt governmental bond. A tax-exempt bond that is not a private activity bond (see next) is a tax-exempt governmental bond. This includes a bond issued by a qualified volunteer fire department under section 150(e). Private activity bond. This includes a bond issued as part of an issue in which:•More than 10% of the proceeds are to be used for any private activity business use; and•More than 10% of the payment of principal or interest of the issue is either (a) secured by an interest in property to be used for a private business use (or payments for such property), or (b) to be derived from payments for property (or borrowed money) used for a private business use. It also includes a bond, the proceeds of which (a) are to be used directly or indirectly to make or finance loans (other than loans described in section 141(c)(2)) to persons other than governmental units, and (b) exceeds the lesser of 5% of the proceeds or $5 million. Issue price. The issue price of bonds is generally determined under Regulations section 1.148-1(f). Thus, when issued for cash, the issue price is the first price at which a substantial amount of the bonds are sold to the public. To determine the issue price of a bond issued for property, see sections 1273 and 1274 and the related regulations. Issue. Generally, bonds are treated as part of the same issue if they are issued by the same issuer, on the same date, and in a single transaction, or a series of related transactions (see Regulations section 1.149(e)-1(e)(2)). However, bonds issued during the same calendar year (a) under a loan agreement under which amounts are to be advanced periodically (a “draw-down loan”), or (b) with a term not exceeding 270 days, may be treated as part of the same issue if the bonds are equally and ratably secured under a single indenture or loan agreement and are issued under a common financing arrangement (for example, under the same official statement periodically updated to reflect changing factual circumstances). Also, for bonds issued under a draw-down loan that meet the requirements of the preceding Sep 21, 2021 Cat. No. 63774D2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 204 of 407 Page 2 of 4 Fileid: … s/i8038g/202110/a/xml/cycle04/source 13:22 - 21-Sep-2021The type and rule above prints on all proofs including departmental reproduction proofs. MUST be removed before printing. sentence, bonds issued during different calendar years may be treated as part of the same issue if all of the amounts to be advanced under the draw-down loan are reasonably expected to be advanced within 3 years of the date of issue of the first bond. Likewise, bonds (other than private activity bonds) issued under a single agreement that is in the form of a lease or installment sale may be treated as part of the same issue if all of the property covered by that agreement is reasonably expected to be delivered within 3 years of the date of issue of the first bond. Arbitrage rebate. Generally, interest on a state or local bond is not tax exempt unless the issuer of the bond rebates to the United States arbitrage profits earned from investing proceeds of the bond in higher yielding nonpurpose investments. See section 148(f). Construction issue. This is an issue of tax-exempt bonds that meets both of the following conditions. 1.At least 75% of the available construction proceeds are to be used for construction expenditures with respect to property to be owned by a governmental unit or a section 501(c)(3) organization. 2.All the bonds that are part of the issue are qualified 501(c)(3) bonds, bonds that are not private activity bonds, or private activity bonds issued to finance property to be owned by a governmental unit or a section 501(c)(3) organization. In lieu of rebating any arbitrage that may be owed to the United States, the issuer of a construction issue may make an irrevocable election to pay a penalty. The penalty is equal to 11/2% of the amount of the available construction proceeds of the issue that do not meet certain spending requirements as of the close of each 6-month period after the date the bonds were issued. See section 148(f)(4)(C) and the Instructions for Form 8038-T. Pooled financing issue. This is an issue of tax-exempt bonds, the proceeds of which are to be used to finance purpose investments representing conduit loans to two or more conduit borrowers, unless those conduit loans are to be used to finance a single capital project.

This line is for IRS use only. Do not make any entries in this box. Line 7. The date of issue is generally the first date on which the issuer physically exchanges any bond included in the issue for the underwriter's (or other purchaser's) funds.

If the bonds are short-term tax anticipation notes or warrants (TANs) or short-term revenue anticipation notes or warrants (RANs), check box 19a. If the bonds are short-term bond anticipation notes (BANs), issued with the expectation that they will be refunded with the proceeds of long-term bonds at some future date, check box 19b. Do not check both boxes. Line 20.

Do not check this box if the proceeds of the bond are received in the form of cash, even if the term “lease” is used in the title of the issue. Part III—Description of Bonds Line 21. For column (a), the final maturity date is the last date the issuer must redeem the entire issue. For column (b), see Issue price under Definitions, earlier. For column (c), the stated redemption price at maturity of the entire issue is the sum of the stated redemption prices at maturity of each bond issued as part of the issue. For a lease or installment sale, write “N/A” in column (c). For column (d), the weighted average maturity is the sum of the products of the issue price of each maturity and the number of years to maturity (determined separately for each maturity and by taking into account mandatory redemptions), divided by the issue price of the entire issue (from line 21, column (b)). For a lease or installment sale, enter instead the total number of years the lease or installment sale will be outstanding. For column (e), the yield, as defined in section 148(h), is the discount rate that, when used to figure the present value of all payments of principal and interest to be paid on the bond, produces an amount equal to the purchase price, including accrued interest. See Regulations section 1.148-4 for specific rules to figure the yield on an issue. If the issue is a variable rate issue, write “VR” as the yield of the issue. For other than variable rate issues, carry the yield out to four decimal places (for example, 5.3125%). If the issue is a lease or installment sale, enter the effective rate of interest being paid. Part IV—Uses of Proceeds of Bond Issue For a lease or installment sale, write “N/A” in the space to the right of the title for Part IV. Line 22. Enter the amount of proceeds that will be used to pay interest on the issue accruing prior to the date of issue. For definition of date of issue, see these instructions, line 7. Line 24. Enter the amount of the proceeds that will be used to pay bond issuance costs, including fees for trustees and bond counsel. If no bond proceeds will be used to pay bond issuance costs, enter zero. Do not leave this line blank. Line 25. Enter the amount of the proceeds that will be used to pay fees for credit enhancement that are taken into account in determining the yield on the issue for purposes of section 148(h) (for example, bond insurance premiums and certain fees for letters of credit). Line 26. Enter the amount of proceeds that will be allocated to such a fund. Line 27. Enter the amount of the proceeds that will be used to pay principal, interest, or call premium on any tax-exempt bonds, including proceeds that will be used to fund an escrow account for this purpose. Line 28. Enter the amount of the proceeds that will be used to pay principal, interest, or call premium on any taxable bonds, including proceeds that will be used to fund an escrow account for this purpose. Part V—Description of Refunded Bonds Complete this part only if the bonds are to be used to refund a prior issue of tax-exempt bonds or taxable bonds. For a lease or installment sale, write “N/A” in the space to the right of the title for Part V. Lines 31 and 32. The remaining weighted average maturity is determined without regard to the refunding. The weighted average maturity is determined in the same manner as on line 21, column (d). Line 34. If more than a single issue of tax-exempt bonds or taxable bonds will be refunded, enter the date of issue for each refunded issue. Enter the date in an MM/DD/YYYY format. Part VI—Miscellaneous Line 35. An allocation of volume cap is required if the nonqualified amount for the issue is more than $15 million but is not more than the amount that would cause the issue to be private activity bonds. Line 36. If any portion of the gross proceeds of the issue is or will be invested in a guaranteed investment contract (GIC), as defined in Regulations section 1.148-1(b), enter the amount of the gross proceeds so invested, as well as the final maturity date of the GIC and the name of the provider of such contract. Line 37. If the issue is a pooled financing issue (as defined under Pooled financing issue in Definitions, earlier), enter the amount of the proceeds used to make loans to other governmental units, the interest on which is tax exempt. Line 38. If the issue is a loan of proceeds from a pooled financing issue (as defined under Pooled financing issue in Definitions, earlier), check the box and where asked for the date of issue, EIN, and name of the issuer of the master pool bond, enter the date of issue, EIN, and name of the issuer of the pooled financing issue. Line 40. Check this box if the issue is a construction issue and an irrevocable election to pay a penalty in lieu of arbitrage rebate has been made on or before the date the bonds were issued. The penalty is payable with a Form 8038-T for each 6-month period after the date the bonds are issued. Do not make any payment of penalty in lieu of arbitrage rebate with this form. See Rev. Proc. 92-22, 1992-1 C.B. 736, for rules regarding the “election document.” Line 41a. Check this box if the issuer has identified a hedge on its books and records according to Regulations sections 1.148-4(h)(2)(viii) and 1.148-4(h)(5)(iv) that permit an issuer of tax-exempt bonds to identify a hedge for it to be included in yield calculations for figuring arbitrage. Line 42. In determining if the issuer has super-integrated a hedge, apply the rules of Regulations section 1.148-4(h)(4). If the hedge is super-integrated, check the box. Line 43. If the issuer takes a “deliberate action” after the issue date that causes the conditions of the private business tests or the private loan financing test to be met, then such issue is also an issue of private activity bonds. Regulations section 1.141-2(d)(3) defines a deliberate action as any action taken by the issuer that is within its control regardless of whether there is intent to violate such tests. Regulations section 1.141-12 explains the conditions to taking remedial action that prevent an action that causes an issue to meet the private business tests or private loan financing test from being treated as a deliberate action. Check the box if the issuer has established written procedures to ensure timely remedial action for all nonqualified bonds according to Regulations section 1.141-12 or other remedial actions authorized by the Commissioner under Regulations section 1.141-12(h). Line 44. Check the box if the issuer has established written procedures to monitor compliance with the arbitrage, yield restriction, and rebate requirements of section 148. Line 45a. Check the box if some part of the proceeds was used to reimburse expenditures. Figure and then enter the amount of proceeds that are used to reimburse the issuer for amounts paid for a qualified purpose prior to the issuance of the bonds. See Regulations section 1.150-2. Line 45b. Subject to certain exceptions under Regulations section 1.150-2(f), an issuer must adopt an official intent, as described in Regulations section 1.150-2(e), to reimburse itself for preissuance expenditures within 60 days after payment of the original expenditure.

Padilla <spadilla@chulavistaca.gov>; Andrea Cardenas acardenas@chulavistaca.gov> Subject: Public Comment: New details show sprawling web of corruption in Southern California cannabis licensing Good evening, Mayor Salas and council members, my name is Becky Rapp. I’m a public health educator concerned with the lack of prevention messaging regarding the marijuana industry. I cannot attend in person tonight but wanted to send my comments in hopes of consideration. It seems the marijuana industry has the ear of the city as every policy that moves forward seems to benefit those profiting. Many local doctors working on the front lines of the mental health crisis have stated their concerns along with new, current studies that point to the detrimental harms high-potency marijuana can have, especially on the developing brain. Information that should not be ignored. I can’t help but wonder why. An article posted in the LA times last week titled, “New details show sprawling web of corruption in Southern California cannabis licensing.” The article describes how California lawmakers called for a statewide task force to crack down on corruption. Details are emerging in a bribery scandal and pay-to-play schemes. The counties that have been investigated are the Inland Empire, San Gabrielle Valley, and Southwest Los Angeles County. The article goes on to describe that in some instances, government officials took on dual roles as lobbyists or consultants for pot interests. In fact, more than a dozen government officials statewide received income, ranging from thousands of dollars to hundreds of thousands from marijuana companies or had interests in pot businesses while still in office. Warning: External Email Written Communications Public Comment - Rapp - Received 10/25/22 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 226 of 407 In no way am saying the city is involved in backyard transactions with the marijuana industry but it is curious as to why policy gets approved to profit in the industry and the community voice along with local healthcare professionals seems to be ignored. Perhaps more prevention messaging and counter-advertising would be appropriate, sending the message that you’re listening.

October 18, 2022 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 266 of 407 v . 0 03 P a g e | 1 October 25, 2022 ITEM TITLE Tenant Protections: Consideration of an Ordinance Regarding Local Tenant Protections to Address No- Fault Just Cause Terminations of Tenancy and Harassment Report Number: 22-0185 Location: No specific geographic location Department: Development Services Environmental Notice: The activity is not a “Project” as defined under Section 15378 of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) State Guidelines; therefore, pursuant to State Guidelines Section 15060(c)(3) no environmental review is required. Recommended Action Consider placing an ordinance on first reading to add Chapter 9.65 to the Chula Vista Municipal Code entitled “Residential Tenant Protection Ordinance.” (First Reading) SUMMARY On May 17, 2022, staff presented an ordinance responsive to a September 14, 2021 City Council referral to review potential tenant protections in the City of Chula Vista and received feedback. Tonight’s action provides the City Council with a permanent ordinance, Chula Vista Municipal Code Chapter 9.65 “Residential Tenant Protection Ordinance” (“CVMC 9.65” or the “Ordinance”), that is responsive to the original referral and subsequent Council comments to address no-fault terminations of tenancy related to substantial remodels of rental properties, removal of rental properties from the rental market, demolition of rental properties, and owner or family move-ins. The provisions further define and prohibit harassment and retaliation against tenants and provide remedies and tools for enforcement. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The Director of Development Services has reviewed the proposed activity for compliance with CEQA. The activity is not a “Project” as defined under Section 15378 of the State CEQA Guidelines because the proposal consists of a reporting action, is not for a site-specific project(s) and will not result in a direct or indirect 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 267 of 407 P a g e | 2 physical change in the environmental. Therefore, pursuant to Section 15060(c)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines the activity is not subject to CEQA. BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION On April 19, 2022, the Housing Advisory Commission (“HAC”) voted 4-1 recommending the draft ordinance to add CVMC 9.65 advance to City Council and that the City establish a task force to assist in tenant and landlord disputes. The Commission also expressed some difficulty in moving forward with the ordinance, indicating that they felt additional outreach might bring the stakeholders into closer agreement. DISCUSSION On September 14, 2021, after several months of public comments regarding the eviction of tenants at two properties within the City of Chula Vista, and requests for action by the Alliance of Californians for Community Empowerment (ACCE), the City Council made a referral to staff to review and address the following key areas of tenant protection law: Substantial Rehabilitation Removal from Rental Market Harassment and Retaliation City Remedies & Enforcement On April 12, 2022, an extensive update was provided to City Council on the process established to respond to the September 14, 2021 referral as Item No. 8.1. This was followed by a presentation of a proposed ordinance on May 17 as Item No. 7.2. Tonight’s report serves to respond to specific concerns voiced at the May 17 meeting, provide an update of meetings with stakeholders since that time, and present the City Council with a responsive ordinance inclusive of final stakeholder input and additional data. Exhibit 1 provides a timeline of the referral process. Exhibit 1 Tenant Protection Referral Timeline 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 268 of 407 P a g e | 3 Legal Considerations Three main State Laws currently provide tenant protections related to the referred items. A summary of each, and the City’s authority to implement local protections is summarized below. The Ellis Act (Government Code section 7060, et seq.): The Ellis Act provides that a local jurisdiction may not compel a rental property owner via statute, ordinance, regulation, or administrative action to continue to offer accommodations for rent. In other words, the City may not prevent a landlord from exiting the rental business. The Ellis Act does, however, permit all local jurisdictions to mitigate any adverse impacts on persons displaced as a result of the withdrawal of a property from the rental market (see Government Code section 7060.1(c)). In jurisdictions that have adopted local rent control measures, specific additional protective provisions are authorized by statute. If a local jurisdiction implements local rent control measures, additional tenant protections could be available under the Ellis Act; however, it would be the local jurisdiction’s responsibility to implement and enforce rent control, as well as any adopted additional protections. The State’s Tenant Protection Act of 2019 (“STPA”) (AB1482): The STPA in Civil Code section 1946.2 provides that a tenancy may only be terminated for Just Cause, which includes both At-Fault Just Cause and No-Fault Just Cause terminations. At-Fault Just Cause reasons for terminating a tenancy include actions by the tenants that justify termination of the tenancy. No-Fault Just Cause reasons for terminating a tenancy include situations in which the tenant is not at fault, and the termination is instead being initiated because of the landlord’s actions. The STPA, in reference to the Ellis Act provisions, lists removal of a rental property from the rental market as a No-Fault Just Cause basis. (see Civil Code section 1946.2(b)(2)(B)). Additional No Fault Just Cause reasons for terminating a tenancy include: (1) owner or family member move-in; (2) substantial remodel or complete demolition of the rental property; and (3) a court order or other law forcing the closure of the rental property. In addition to requiring At Fault or No-Fault Just Cause to terminating a tenancy, the STPA further provides for various tenant protections, including reason-specific termination notices and relocation assistance. Most importantly, the STPA allows local jurisdictions to create their own ordinances to provide for greater tenant protections. In instances where a local jurisdiction enacts an ordinance that is more protective than the STPA provisions, the local protections supersede the STPA. Finally, Civil Code section 1947.12 imposes state-wide rent control, capping the number of times per year that rent can be increased, and capping the percentage of such increases. Section 1947.12 does not limit local jurisdictions from establishing their own local rent control provisions. In reviewing the options for the Ordinance, rent control was not considered as it was not part of the referral made to staff. Retaliatory Behavior Prohibition (Civil Code 1942.5): State law provides protections from retaliation for tenants that have exercised a legal right against a landlord. In the event that a tenant exercises a tenant’s right (including participation in an organized tenant’s rights association) or reports a habitability issue to an enforcing agency, a landlord cannot terminate the tenancy, force the tenant to leave involuntarily, increase rent, or decrease any services for a specified period of time so long as the tenant has not failed to pay rent. Local jurisdictions may adopt additional tenant anti- harassment provisions pursuant to their local police power authority. 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 269 of 407 P a g e | 4 Council Comments Table 1 provides a summary of comments from City Council on May 17 and provides details of how City staff have addressed these concerns. Table 1 Summary of Council Comments on May 17th & Action to Address May 17th Comment Action to Address Assessment of Housing Staff Resources A separate action will be brought forward to Council regarding Housing resources and restructuring to address increasing emphasis on Housing matters. Develop Outreach Plan City entered into a contract with NV5/Ardurra in June 2022 for assistance in facilitating stakeholder meetings, inventorying available stakeholder resources and developing an outreach strategy for initial ordinance implementation and a long-term educational campaign. An outline of the collaborative stakeholder outreach opportunities is provided later in the staff report. Tracking/Data Collection Added Ordinance requirements for landlords to provide data to be submitted to the City along with notice(s) served to resident(s), to be more fully defined in the Administrative Regulations. City staff will maintain no- fault noticing and work with CSA to establish data collection for other tenant/landlord issues and terminations. How Would Tenancy be Validated? Ordinance provides definitions on qualifications for tenancy and tools for tenants to civilly pursue. Length of Tenancy for Protections Removed the requirement that Just Cause is required only for Long-Term Tenancies. As a result, Just Cause is required to terminate a tenancy of any length. Review Relocation Metric of U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Small Area Fair Market Rent (SAFMR) to Ensure it Reflects Current Rental Market The SAFMR is updated in April of every year. While the City has seen a significant increase in rental rates in the past year, historically the Consumer Price Index (CPI) increase for the San Diego area averages 2.5-3.0% annually. A survey, further discussed below was conducted in July 2022 and showed average rents well below the SAFMR. However, to address concerns regarding increased market rents, the Ordinance has been updated to provide relocation assistance for a specified number of months at the greater of the SAFMR for that zip code or actual contracted rent. Strengthen Protections around First Right of Refusal Added requirement for landlord to include minimum criteria for requalification of tenancy with first right of refusal noticing and greater specificity of timeframes. Clarify Enforcement of Criminal Offenses Ordinance updated to specify that criminal penalties are authorized only in the case of the Owner’s interference with a Tenant’s occupancy involving (a) threat, fraud, intimidation, etc.; (b) a public nuisance; (c) cutting off utilities; or restricting trade (including delivery services) to or from a Tenant. 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 270 of 407 P a g e | 5 Address Enforcement Process and Define Remedies Administrative Regulations will provide additional details for enforcement. Citywide Survey Based on continuing concern that additional local data was needed surrounding the types of termination of tenancies that have recently occurred, types of properties impacted, and existing rental rates, Staff contracted with LUTH Research to conduct a survey of tenants and landlords throughout the City (see Attachment 1 for the full report). Between July 6 and July 26, through market research calls, stakeholders and city media channels, a citywide survey was distributed to collect additional data and responses were received from 271 tenants and 89 landlords who lease out 116 separate units. The survey highlights included: 41% of tenant respondents resided in the 91910 zip code, followed by 91911 at 26%, 91913 at 17%, 91915 at 8%, 91902 at 5%, and 91914 at 2%. Only one in ten tenant respondents are renting a property that the owner also lives on. One in five tenant respondents have been in the property ten years or longer. Nearly one-half of tenant respondents are renting two-bedroom units and one in three are renting three-bedroom units. The average rent paid for a 1-bedroom rental in Chula Vista is just under $1,500, it is just under $2,000 for a 2-bedroom and nearly $2,400 for a 3-bedroom rental. Exhibit 2 provides a comparison of these results to the SAFMR, showing on average the SAFMR is higher than reported rents. 41% of tenant respondents received a rent increase for 2022, while one in three tenant respondents have never had a rent increase. Rent increases averaged $180 in 2022. One in ten Chula Vista tenant respondents say they have received an eviction notice or a termination of tenancy in the past three months. The primary reason for an eviction notice is for non-payment of rent; however, many have also received notices due to the owner or family moving in and substantial rehabilitation. Around one in ten tenants belong to ACCE and slightly fewer belong to San Diego Tenants Unite/Tenants Together. Landlords reported issuing no-fault terminations in the past 3 months affecting 157 tenants. 35% of landlords indicated they were not aware of noticing requirements under AB1482. Exhibit 2 Comparison of Survey Data vs. SAFMR 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 271 of 407 P a g e | 6 Stakeholder Outreach The May 17 staff report provides a full update of stakeholder input to that point. In all, over 20 stakeholder and/or public meetings, as summarized in Table 2, have been held over the course of responding to the referral. Meeting notes from stakeholder meetings on June 2, July 13, and August 22 have been included as Attachment 2. Table 2 Summary of Outreach Meetings & Stakeholder Involvement While staff has continued to make updates to the Ordinance based on stakeholder input throughout the process, landlords have contended from the beginning that local protections beyond those offered by State Law should not be implemented since the State Tenant Protection Act of 2019 (“AB1482” or the “STPA”) was adopted just prior to the pandemic making the real industry impacts still unknown, and there has not been a demonstrated need for additional protections in Chula Vista. On the other hand, tenant advocates have contended that no-fault evictions are a loophole in AB1482, are a growing trend for displacement of residents throughout the State, and local jurisdictions should act now before the issue grows further. “Residential Tenant Protection Ordinance” Based upon the May 17 input received from the Council and subsequent data and stakeholder input, a final Ordinance is being presented for consideration. Attachment 3 provides an overview of State Law surrounding substantial remodel, demolition, removal from market, and retaliatory harassment (AB1482, Civil Code 1942.5, and Ellis Act), in comparison to the proposed Ordinance. Important points of the new ordinance include: For single-family residences, only those owned by a business entity have greater requirements than current State law. Section 9.65.050, Harassment and Retaliation Against Tenant Prohibited, applies to single-family residences that are owned by a business entity, properties with two units that are both rented (duplexes or single-family with ADU), and Residential Rental Complexes. Section 9.65.060, Just Cause Required for Termination of Tenancy, applies to all single-family residences that are owned by a business entity, properties with two units that are both rented (duplexes or single-family with ADU), and to Residential Rental Complex with 3 units or more. 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 272 of 407 P a g e | 7 Section 9.65.070, Requirements Upon Termination of a Tenancy, requires that notice and relocation assistance be provided to tenants in the event of a No-Fault Just Cause termination. This provision applies to all single-family residences that are owned by a business entity, properties with two units that are both rented (duplexes or single-family with ADU), and to Residential Rental Complex with 3 units or more. Owners are required to provide notice to the City of the No Fault J ust Cause termination of tenancy. For units in a Residential Rental Complex, relocation assistance must be provided to the tenant in an amount equal to two months’ rent, or for elderly or disabled tenants, an amount equal to three months’ rent. For all other units, relocation assistance must be provided to the tenant in an amount equal to one month’s rent. Implementation Should Council adopt the Ordinance as presented, the effective date would be March 1, 2023. Over the next approximately 90 days, staff would continue to work with stakeholders to finalize the Administrative Regulations and provide educational outreach to all affected parties. A summary of potential methods was compiled with stakeholder input and is provided in Attachment 4. Specifically, City staff will be launching an updated webpage dedicated to landlord/tenant resources (https://www.chulavistaca.gov/landlordtenant), will provide direct mailing and utilize social media and community organizations to educate the community. Currently, 752 complexes which contain 3 units or more (“Residential Rental Complex” as defined in the Ordinance), a total of 22,905 units, have business licenses to operate. Staff will coordinate with the Finance Department and Code Enforcement to ensure information on the Ordinance is included in future annual business license renewal mailings; separate mailings will be made as needed, and emails will be sent to all Residential Rental Complexes on file. CSA San Diego will increase education to tenants through community events and community-based organizations and will collect additional data on terminations of tenancy, that are not covered by the Ordinance and being collected by the City, in order to track trends and inform future policy. Conclusion Staff has held over twenty (20) stakeholder meetings throughout the ordinance development process, including three public meetings through the Housing Advisory Commission, in addition to the City Council meetings on April 12 and May 17. The goal has continually been to bring forward a draft ordinance to be responsive to the original City Council referral to address no-fault termination of tenancy related to substantial remodel, removal from rental market, harassment/retaliation, and City remedies and enforcement. While stakeholders still widely disagree on several key elements, the Ordinance as presented provides tools to clarify state law and additional protections for Chula Vista tenants while balancing other stakeholder and City resource concerns. Considerations in this process have included: Providing residents with additional protections for no-fault termination of tenancy; Minimally impacting small landlords (“mom and pops”); Narrowing the definition of what constitutes a substantial remodel; Allowing properties within the city to revitalize as needed due to age, while providing resources for tenants to be able to move to a similar unit with additional relocation benefits; Limiting additional city resource needs; and 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 273 of 407 P a g e | 8 Addressing unintentional impacts throughout the process. DECISION-MAKER CONFLICT Staff has reviewed the decision contemplated by this action and has determined that it is not a site- specific and consequently, the real property holdings of the City Council members do not create a disqualifying real property-related financial conflict of interest under the Political Reform Act (Cal. Gov’t Code §87100, et seq.). Councilmember McCann may, however, have a conflict of interest given his ownership interest in rental property and property management business. Otherwise, Staff is not independently aware, and has not been informed by any other City Council member, of any other fact that may constitute a basis for a decision-maker conflict of interest in this matter. CURRENT-YEAR FISCAL IMPACT There is no current year fiscal impact to the General Fund as a result of this action. Costs associated with development of this staff report and ordinance are included in the Housing Authority budget. ONGOING FISCAL IMPACT There is no ongoing fiscal impact to the General Fund as a result of this action as currently presented. Implementation of the Ordinance will have minor indirect costs for staff time to collect data, respond to and educate residents, particularly in the first months and/or year of implementation. Staff will continue to evaluate impacts and provide the HAC with updates related to administrative changes and/or budgetary impacts. ATTACHMENTS 1. LUTH Research Citywide Landlord & Tenant Survey 2.

These households are at risk of failing to maintain housing and falling into homelessness; and WHEREAS, given existing income levels of Chula Vista residents and the existing high cost of housing in San Diego County prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, including in Chula Vista, any further reductions in income and increased housing costs would exacerbate existing housing affordability issues; and WHEREAS, a recent report shows that Chula Vista rents increased by 16% over the last year (https://www.cbs8.com/article/news/investigations/your-stories-8/skyrocketing-rent-hikes- across-san-diego-new-report-shows/509-ee7f4ae5-c360-4ea7-bb59-55c4cb5f86d7); and WHEREAS, further economic impacts are anticipated (including high inflation, increased food and transportation costs, rising rents, and higher mortgage rates) leaving tenants vulnerable to eviction; and 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 275 of 407 Ordinance Page 2 WHEREAS, it in the interest of protecting the public health and welfare, it is essent ial to avoid unnecessary housing displacement, to maintain the City’s affordable housing stock, and to prevent housed individuals from falling into homelessness; and WHEREAS, in August 2020, the California legislature adopted state residential eviction protections for tenants unable to pay rent due to the COVID -19 pandemic and preempted local eviction protections (the state eviction protections were extended to residential tenancies through March 31, 2022); and WHEREAS, displacement of residential tenants caused by eviction creates undue hardship on these tenants by making it difficult to follow public health orders and guidance of social distancing and isolation, and puts them at risk of homelessness due to the City’s documented shortage of affordable housing; and WHEREAS, through “No Fault” evictions, tenants can be evicted and displaced from their homes despite satisfying monthly rental obligations and acting in good faith to comply with the terms of their lease; and WHEREAS, a Tenant’s sudden and immediate displacement caused by a “No Fault” eviction can have a profound impact on the financial, emotional, and professional stability of a Tenant’s life; and WHEREAS, the Covid-19 Pandemic continues to impact our communities and evictions have been associated with higher COVID-19 transmission and mortality through overcrowded living environments, transiency, reduced access to healthcare, and challenges to comply with mitigation strategies; and WHEREAS, the State of California has recognized the impact of evictions on individuals and established the State Tenant Protection Act of 2019 (AB 1482; Civil Code section 1946.2); and WHEREAS, the State Tenant Protection Act authorizes local jurisdictions to adopt requirements for just cause termination of a residential tenancy that are more protective than the provisions in the State Tenant Protection Act of 2019; and WHEREAS, this Ordinance is intended to address threats to the public health, safety, and welfare of the residents of Chula Vista, to ensure that residents continue to have stable housing, and to protect residents from avoidable homelessness; and WHEREAS, this Ordinance adopts requirements for just cause termination of a residential Tenancy that are more protective than the provisions in the State Tenant Protection Act of 2019, and provides additional tenant protections.

If Owners and Tenants cannot informally resolve issues, alternative dispute resolution and mediation programs should be voluntarily utilized. 2.

The City shall have the sole and unfettered discretion to determine if and when City will engage in City enforcement of this chapter. Owners and Tenants are highly encouraged to independently resolve disputes as set forth in paragraphs 1 and 2 above. B. General Provisions. 1. The enforcement mechanisms and remedies specified in this section are cumulative and in addition to any other enforcement mechanisms and remedies available under federal, State, County, and City law for violation of this chapter or Code. 2. It shall be unlawful for any Person to violate any provision or fail to comply with the requirements of this chapter. Each day that a violation continues is deemed to be a new and separate offense. 3. Any waiver of the rights under this chapter shall be void as contrary to public policy. C. City Attorney Enforcement. 1. Alternative Remedies. The City Attorney may require Owner and Tenant to participate in education programs related to Owner-Tenant issues, mediation, or an alternative dispute resolution program. 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 289 of 407 Ordinance Page 16 2.

Civil Action. An aggrieved Tenant may institute a civil action for injunctive relief, direct money damages, and any other relief allowed by law, including the assessment of civil penalties in the amount of no less than $2,000 and no more than $5,000 per violation per day. If the aggrieved Tenant is Elderly or Disabled, additional civil penalties of up to $5,000 per violation per day may be assessed at the discretion of the court.

I think the city is heading in the right direction to balance opposing positions. – Jeremy Sine” -Emailed Comments (received after meeting) Molly Kirkland, Southern California Rental Housing Association was unable to join but submitted comments on the agenda. In terms of what my organization can provide: - Outreach to property owners and managers/management companies, both members and non-members. o Via our emails newsletters, website, public relations, social media and magazine. o Can also share information at classes and major events, such as our Trade Show. - Ability to share tenant facing information with members who can then share with their residents. (i.e. information flyers that housing providers can post or put in community newsletter) - Willing to host/co-host community/educational forums/webinars. We’ve done this with CSA is the past. Data Collection: - If tenant initiates contact, what you have listed is fine but I might also suggest… o Make sure when the documentation is received, the date of service and the date of termination are noted. (Many housing providers issue a “60-day notice” but with a termination date that is further out than 60 days. Legally, w hichever is later takes precedent. It’s important to know if housing providers are opting to provider residents with more time.) o Was relocation offered/provided? How much? (some housing providers offer more) o Is this the first Notice of Termination received? ▪ If no, explain. (quite often the housing provider has already given the resident extra time. They will rescind notices or re-notice with a later 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 329 of 407 ATTACHMENT 2 termination date. Again, it’s important to quantify that not everyone is simply getting a 60-day.) o Follow up details (was housing provider contacted? Legal Aid? Other?) o What was the situation of the housing provider? (are they selling due to a military relocation, financial hardship? For substantial remodel, how old in the property? Last time it had major updates?) o Was the case referred to mediation? Were the parties amendable? Detail outcomes, including refusal to participate, etc. o If anything, criminal was alleged, was the case referred to the City or DA? It’s important that more than just calls and reasons for the calls are collected. There are always more details to the story. A fair and balanced data collection is the only way to get a true picture of the environment as a whole. Otherwise, we are back where we started. With regard to collection of housing provider information, I know that some do call CSA for advice, but I imagine tenant calls are predominant. If a housing provider calls, they should not have to provide information about the entire property unless that is the question they have or reason they are calling. If it’s only about a single unit, only information about the unit should be asked of the provider. Some of the questions above could apply here too. 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 330 of 407 RESIDENTIAL LANDLORD & TENANT PROVISIONS STAKEHOLDER MEETING NOTES July 13, 2022 2:00PM-3:30PM City of Chula Vista City Hall, Building A - Executive Suite 103 Introductions/Attendees Stacey Kurz, City of Chula Vista, Housing Manager Anne Steinberg, City of Chula Vista, Communications Manager Gabriela Dow, City Consultant, NV5 Melanie Woods, CAA Jeremy Sine, SDAR Gil Vera, Legal Aid Robert Mansouri, Legal Aid Silvia Saldivar, ACCE Gabriel Guzman, ACCE Rich D’Ascoli, PSAR Olivia Galvez, SCRHA Update from Housing Staff 2:10 to 3:00PM Landlord & Tenant Survey Staff provided an overview of the Landlord & Tenant Survey that is currently out for completion to get a better understanding of recent market trends within the City by all property types. A specific question around noticing requirements for AB1482 was included. Follow up items: • City will provide a dropbox link to all of the marketing materials and the full survey for stakeholders. Request they use the marketing materials and survey link to email their members, post on social media, etc. • Staff will also follow up with the target sample size after the meeting. Overview of Changes to Ordinance Staff provided an overview of the comments that were heard at the May 17th Council meeting and provided how staff is being responsive, as follows: • Assess resources ongoing for Tenant/Landlord - Reorganize Housing Dept. – more resources; tenant/landlord issues; housing navigation – back to Council Aug. or Sept. 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 331 of 407 • Develop outreach plan – how will we educate community. How quickly educate re: ordinance and ongoing. • Data collection – City take a closer look at what data will be maintained at City and CSA. o Ordinance to add data collection requirements. Landlord to report termination action to city. ▪ (Section 8 requires same day reporting when tenant is terminating). ▪ Some felt same business day or at same time language is too restrictive and may not be feasible. Three business days was proposed and all in attendance agreed that would be more suitable. ▪ Questions on how it will be submitted. Should have a variety of w ays: email, web form, paper, etc. o Mandatory cover sheet will be added to city requirement, from landlord with basic demographic info about number issued, how many vacancies remain, contact info for owner. ▪ Some suggested it would be better to have submittal requirements rather than a cover sheet. ▪ Suggest City be required to provide confirmation via email. • City developing administrative guidelines to include process around enforcement and voluntary form for residents when noticed (to make them aware of possible resources). • Long-term tenancy – Relocation, benefits, impact same for tenants no matter time in housing, and therefore ordinance updated for relocation benefits on day one of tenancy. o Relocation benefits: Demo, removal from market, substantial rehab - 2 months rent or 3 months rent disabled or elderly. Greater of the contracted rent or SAFMR (by zip code). • Any return to unit – requalification based on industry standards. First right refusal for tenant – but they have to qualify. o Clarify “industry standard” What is the bare minimum to rent unit? o Noticing period for requalification? Written as 30 days from landlord notice of available unit. • Government or court order (eminent domain) or family move-in relocation one-month rent. o Consider uninhabitable violations? Hazard issue? • Tenancy definitions - were already clarified in last version of ordinance. Comments from attendees: • Harassment issue should potentially be separated from ordinance and should also address both landlord and tenant need protections, clear definition of harassment, two tenants harassing each other. Additional input: 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 332 of 407 o Focus on bad landlords and those who don’t know laws/regulations. o Tenant and landlord remedies. o Add protections for landlord (harassment). Education & Outreach 3:00 to 3:30PM Assuming the Ordinance is adopted and effective October 1, how do we educate and inform community? (group discussion) • Use common language – decide Tenants? Renters? • Standardize information • Survey responses (add notification option to sign up to get updates) • Additional information for stakeholders. • How do we work together so we all have the same understanding? How can landlords and tenants get feedback or information? • How to receive information and keep meeting? • How long to keep meeting? Check in meeting. • Send notice to City employees. • How is data to be used? Need to consider privacy and anonymized. How will it be shared? Add privacy info. • Contact those on Boards/Commissions. • Constant Contact email database. • Send info to landlord or tenant attorneys? • First right of refusal notification requirements for renting remodeled unit s. 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 333 of 407 RESIDENTIAL LANDLORD & TENANT PROVISIONS STAKEHOLDER MEETING NOTES Monday, August 22, 2022 1:30 - 3:00 p.m. Chula Vista City Hall, Building A – City Manager’s Conference Room #124 (In-Person and Virtual via Teams provided) Introductions/Attendees In-person: Stacey Kurz, City of Chula Vista, Housing Manager Anne Steinberg, City of Chula Vista, Communications Manager Mark Barnard, Management Analyst Gabriela Dow, City Consultant, Ardurra Melanie Woods, CAA Jeremy Sine, SDAR Gil Vera, Legal Aid Silvia Saldivar, ACCE Jose Lopez, ACCE Rich D’Ascoli, PSAR Olivia Galvez, SCRHA BIA Virtually: Simon Silva, Deputy City Attorney Leah Simon-Weisberg, Legal Director ACCE Institute Updates from Housing Staff & Stakeholders Staff provided a quick summary of the Landlord & Tenant Survey results indicating that responses were received from 89 landlords and 277 tenants. The major item of note was the average rents reported were lower than the HUD Small Area Fair Market Rents. Draft Residential Landlord & Tenant Ordinance Staff provided an overview of the restructuring of the document by outlining the table of contents in the Ordinance. They further provided an update on the main issues raised at the May 17th Council meeting and how they had been addressed in the latest version of the ordinance. Comments from participants during run through of ordinance or via email after: 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 334 of 407 Section 9.65.030 Definitions - “Housing Service”: • The way this is written seems to indicate that all these things are automatically a right. Some are under the law. However, many aren’t and tenants might think they automatically get parking, can have as many people in the unit as they want, or can have a pet, etc. • Suggest revising to refer to the existing requirements in state law and “and any other benefits explicitly agreed upon in the rental agreement.” That would capture things like parking and pets, if allowed. Here is a link to the state handbook, page 48 is where the habitability/housing provider requirements list starts: https://wFhousww.courts.ca.gov/documents/California-Tenants- Guide.pdf • There may be other ways to alter so it doesn’t imply all those things are rights simply based on “use or occupancy.” Section 9.65.030 Definitions - “Owner”: • “…and includes a predecessor in interest to the owner.” Can you explain what this pertains to and is trying to accomplish? Section 9.65.040 Tenancies Not Subject – C.2: • MRL tenancies need the exemption notice as well? Guessing the city requires us to notice of the rent control ordinance so is the city looking for an additional notice of exemption? Mobilehomes are clearly exempt from the definition of “Residential Rental Unit” and the chapter but want clarity on the city’s intentions on the noticing. • Clarify whether you need to provide notice if you do not renew the lease. State law may have had a 30-day notice requirement from implementation. Section 9.65.040 Tenancies Not Subject – F: • Is this to account specifically for the City’s Short-Term rental ordinance? Just curious how it differs from the existing state law exemption for “Transient and tourist hotel occupancy as defined in subdivision (b) of Section 1940.” Section 9.65.050 Harassment & Retaliation – 11: • Concerned that this could create issues for someone already involved in an Unlawful Detainer. Counsel usually recommends that rent not be accepted once a case is filed, especially partial rent. If one accepts partial rent, then they would have to start the process all over. Starting with the 3- day to pay or quit, refile the case, so on and so forth. It hardly seems fair to turn that practice into something that a tenant can use to weaponize a harassment complaint. • Perhaps this could be re-worded: Refuse to acknowledge receipt of a Tenant's lawful rent payment; excluding situations where an Unlawful Detainer or other civil suit is pending that could be impacted by the acceptance of rent. Section 9.65.060 Just Cause – 2: • Identify time period of 30 days. 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 335 of 407 Section 9.65.060 Just Cause – 10: • Define using Los Angeles. Concern about application to tenants/agents that are receiving a discount on rent. Define as 100% housing compensation without paying rent. o Suggest caution. The state requires a resident manager in a complex with 16 or more units. The requirement to have them as employees is complicated and costly. Even if they only work a few hours a week, they are classified as employees meaning the owner has to pay work comp, etc. And while the “free apartment” was mentioned, the owner/manager still has to track hours and make sure they are properly crediting the minimum wage against any credit. If a resident manager is having their employment agreement terminated and therefore their tenancy, it is likely because they failed to perform their duties as defined. Hence it being an at-fault cause. I looked at the LA ordinance and there are quite a few limitations on the applicability of protections for resident managers. It’s also a rent control jurisdiction. Section 9.65.070 Requirements upon Termination – B.1.c: • Clarify that relocation is required from day one of tenancy. Short-Term Outreach, Wrap Up & Next Steps Staff provided an overview of a Short-Term Outreach and Education Plan per prior stakeholder meetings to prepare for Ordinance Implementation. Long-Term Outreach and Educational Campaign would be established after adoption. 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 336 of 407 ATTACHMENT 3 COMPARISON OF STATE LAW FOR HARASSMENT & NO-FAULT TERMINATIONS OF TENANCY AND LOCALLY PROPOSED PROTECTIONS IMPACTED HOUSING TYPES IN CHULA VISTA State - Civil Code 1942.5 Chula Vista State Chula Vista State Chula Vista State Chula Vista State Chula Vista State - Government Code 1942.5 Chula Vista Single-family owned by business entity* Prohibits retaliatory evictions due to a tenant's exercise of a legal right.

In addition, an education and engagement campaign will increase awareness and understanding of the pending housing provider and tenant ordinance. Partner stakeholder groups and community leaders have been engaged to provide and receive timely updates and discuss ordinance framework and content over the past few months. City staff and an independent facilitator is providing follow up after each meeting to collaboratively discuss the latest version of the ordinance for review by key stakeholders and organizations. The ordinance is expected to be presented to the Chula Vista City Council at the September 27 Council meeting.

Sec. 1 added Nov. 5, 1974, by Proposition 7. Resolution Chapter 90, 1974.) This article has not changed, and I have not provided my consent for the city council, or the mayor all of whom are paid public servants of the people of Chula Vista whether "elected" or selected, to over reach in their perceived authority to interfere in any way with my property or my rights to do or not do what I deem appropriate with it. The job of the mayor and city council is to act on behalf of their constituents and to follow moral and ethical standards to ensure that our rights are protected. The once again proposed Tenant Protection Ordinance (TPO) is up for approval. Thankfully there are many informed citizens that care about out city and about our rights, and there has been, and there will continue to be opposition to this type of unsubstantiated, arbitrary, and overreaching ordinance in our city. It was initiated by a referral by Mayor Mary Salas at a City Council meeting on Oct 26, 2021. The basis for this referral has no solid standing. The data being used is from 2011 to 2015, a lot has changed since then in our demographics, selecting data that aligns with a narrative cannot be utilized in a factual serious discussion about what is really needed in our city. Where is the data for at least the last three years that will tell the real story? I requested in my written objection in May 2022, that the council obtain valid current data for their proposed ordinance. I also pointed out that the only group that supposedly was asking for such regulation was a pro TPO paid group organized by Alliance of Californians for Community Empowerment or ACCE (formerly Acorn). ACCE was a coalition leader for Proposition W, the rent control issue in National City that was defeated in Nov 2018. I personally attended the May 17, 2022 council meeting, and saw members of this special interests group show up at the city council meeting all in yellow t-shirts being coached and organized. The leader made scripted comments, and had some of the group members pretending to be affected citizens, and frankly making obvious false statements, basically actors, trying to drive a narrative to support the supposed reasons for this ordinance. It was shameful to watch these people being used. How can we possibly believe that the city council is doing this with good intentions? In addition, attributing some of the reason for this proposal to a state of emergency, that was created by the actions taken and pushed by the Chula Vista City Council, and the State of California, should also disqualify this proposal as circumstantial and advantageous to the city council. The leadership of the City of Chula vista could have taken the right actions to preserve jobs, and to keep people informed and educated, we could have avoided most of the negative impacts to our local economies that are stated in the reasons for the proposed ordinance. Instead you have chosen as many of our cities, to take the federal dollars, lock up their citizens, close down businesses, and force people to fear for their lives and their livelihood, by spreading the fear porn and propaganda for more than two years and counting. And now you want to "solve" the problems you purposely created (never letting an emergency go to waste), conveniently providing a "solution". This raises a lot of eyebrows frankly, the playbook is getting very obvious to those that are paying attention, and more and more are paying attention now. It's time to stop the façade, I think that many of us see clearly that the ordinance has nothing to do with helping people, its about controlling people. We do not consent, we will not consent to your tactics, a nd I hope that you realize that we are all paying close attention to your motives and actions. We will be more critical of our future city leadership, I think we have learned a difficult lesson, by not paying closer attention to who was deciding on our behalf and whether or not their intentions were good. In the near future we will fill these seats with people that care about Chula Vista, about its future, and about really making a positive difference in the lives of those that live here. So disappointed and saddened by the state of our nation and of our city. You all could have done the right thing, but I suspect you will continue to push your dictated agenda, you should expect that we will push back. The proposed tenant ordinance is unconstitutional, redundant, has no valid credible statistical basis, is an insult to the hard working people of Chula Vista, and a Written Communications Item 6.2 - Sexton - Received 10/24/22 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 346 of 407 blatant attempt to make property owners into criminals, if they don't play by your arbitrary and ambiguous rules.

CAA is the nation’s largest statewide trade association representing owners, investors, developers, managers, and suppliers of rental housing. Our membership is diverse representing individual "mom-and-pop" owners of rental housing to the largest apartment operators throughout San Diego County and California. Our membership provides over 70,000 rental homes across San Diego County. As it has been already stated, the State of California has been heralded for having the “strongest tenant protections in the nation” through the adoption of AB 1482 (Chiu) in 2019. This legislation established a statewide, consistent standard to protect renters from excessive rent increases and arbitrary evictions. Establishing new laws and policies will only create inconsistencies for landlords, tenants, and courts across the state. CAA has previously held constructive discussions with city staff on methods to enhance landlord and tenant’s understanding of their rights and responsibilities, but a year has gone by without any meaningful effort towards proactive education efforts. Recognizing significant legal, operational, and procedural issues with this ordinance, CAA recommends the Chula Vista City Council reject the TPO for reasons including, but not limited to, the reasons outlined in this letter. 1. The definition of substantial rehabilitation is $40 per square foot, which does not include planning, engineering, or insurance related costs as part of the valuation. While the valuation was derived by the city’s building department analysis of permit activity, it is also important to recognize that the city’s housing stock is over 40 years old. Historical permit activity may be biased towards new construction and/or projects that are not representative of complex rehabilitations of aging multifamily properties. proceed with amendments. 2. Prior versions of the TPO limited relocation assistance to tenants who have established at least one-year of tenancy. In the current version, no-fault relocation assistance has been expanded to all tenants (e.g. new residents who do not have an established tie to Chula Written Communications Item 6.2 - Cao - Received 10/25/22 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 355 of 407 2 Vista’s community or new residents from another state). CAA has several member testimonials about how relocation assistance is ridden with fraud and abuse in cities like Los Angeles and Alameda where such poorly constructed laws exist. 3. The ordinance stipulates that an owner or their family member can only move into their own property if the tenant agrees in writing prior to the termination or had agreed to it as a condition of the lease. This creates a considerable burden to an owner who is experiencing an emergency. Not only does an owner carry the trauma and expense of caring for a loved one in an emergency, but the City would then require additional money be paid to relocate a tenant; money that could be otherwise used for ongoing care. The City puts the owner in the position of calculating the health and displacement of their own family member against the financial and litigation risk involved with having to relocate a tenant. CAA encourages City Council to recognize that there are circumstances where owners make best decision to prioritize their loved ones over others they have no relation to. There are unique circumstances where ordinance unreasonably interferes into the familial obligations and property rights of owners. 4. The Reporting Requirements in Section 9.65.060(F) of the ordinance provides a backdoor and blank check for an invasion of privacy for both the owner and tenant. The TPO does not have any explicit reporting requirements. Instead, the TPO delegates authority to city staff and defers the development of such requirements without explicit approval of the city council. Reporting requirements under this scenario requirements may change without much notice and owners could be held in violation for failing to meet arbitrary requirements and deadlines. CAA requests City Council decline to entertain the Tenant Protection Ordinance until specific reporting requirements are explicitly written out and are available for public inspection. Consideration of City’s Private Vendor Survey Data and Methodology is Problematic The city conducted the July 2022 renter and stakeholder survey inappropriately. On July 14, 2022 city staff requested that various trade associations send an online survey on the city’s behalf. The administration of the survey was a disingenuous and the effort towards stakeholder outreach was a veiled attempt to validate the city’s presumptions about substantial remodels and evictions. The administration of the survey was highly questionable. The survey only contained biased, predetermined multiple-choice questions. The vendor relied on their own internet-based platform, SurveySavvy. Independent consumers and reviewers have scored the vendor’s platform, SurveySavvy, a 1.8 out of 5 stars and several reviewers alleged they were scammed.1 Lastly, the survey sample size was clearly flawed and not representative of Chula Vista or rental housing organizations quoted in the research report. For example, respondents who have no business interest or established residency in Chula Vista were able to take the survey. The survey was clearly susceptible to manipulation. CAA did not distribute the survey due to its poor design and lack of stakeholder on developing useful questions. Had CAA been properly consulted, the survey would have included the ability of 1 Adkins, Tonia, Stephanie Galloway, and Julie Kelley. “Surveysavvy Is Rated ‘Poor’ with 1.8 / 5 on Trustpilot.” Trustpilot, August 26, 2022. https://www.trustpilot.com/review/surveysavvy.com.

Frustrated participants lacked any ability to provide any meaningful feedback in their own words. The city has no need to rely on private vendors to manufacture data when ample public data was already available. City, County, State, and Federal Data is Available to Make Informed Policy Decisions The City of Chula Vista has meaningful and relevant data documented in its 2021-2029 Housing Element. The Housing Element stated that CSA San Diego had ample funding of nearly $300,000 to carry out investigations and other enforcement activities to prevent or eliminate discriminatory housing practices” (page AE-2). While CSA San Diego has reported an average of 264 cases annually over the past three years, the City’s Housing Element highlights that the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development only found 29 harassment cases specific to Chula Vista in a five- year period (2014-2019). To put into context, harassment allegations in Chula Vista amounted to 1 in 2,733 households. In other words, a confirmed incidence of harassment is less than one percent of all households in Chula Vista. By comparison, there were nine times more incidents of a person being hit by lightning in the entire United States than a Chula Vista resident being a victim of housing-related harassment. According to reporting by CalMatters, evictions throughout San Diego County have been on the decline since 2010.2 CAA’s assertion, backed by actual eviction filings, is that 1 in 113 households in San Diego County experienced an eviction. This analysis is backed by a CalMatters data set, which contained exactly 9,230 case files requested from San Diego County courts and comparing them to over 1.3 million households that exist in the county. Whereas the city’s vendor is reliant on a poorly assembled extrapolations, Chula Vista City Council has the ability to consider facts. Reports of substantial rehabilitation are equally as low. The 2019 United States Census found that 48% of Chula Vista’s housing stock is over 40 years of age and yet, less than 70 multifamily properties underwent substantial rehabilitation over the last reporting period.3 Proponents of the Tenant Protection Ordinance have volleyed wild allegations against rental housing owners’ use of substantial rehabilitation with no evidence. Proponents rely on anecdotes that are still unverified and demand that the city to pass draconian housing laws. Small mom-and-pop owners are unlikely to spend in excess of $40 per square foot, pay relocation fees, and be expected to navigate overly complicated eviction procedures in order to make improvements to their property. Putting up such regulatory barriers will only exacerbate reinvestment into Chula Vista’s aging housing stock. The fact is that city, county, state, and federal data shows there has never been an epidemic of harassment or evictions based on substantial rehabilitation. Conclusion At prior City Council meetings, Councilmembers expressed concerns about increasing rents, the financial hardship of residents and a desire to address the bad actors. The proposed Tenant Protection Ordinance does not address any of the concerns in any substantial way. Instead, the proposed ordinance would (1) inhibit any substantial investment that improves the quality of life for 2 Matt Levin, “A California Housing Crisis Mystery: Rents Are Way up This Decade, but Eviction Filings Are Way Down,” CalMatters, December 22, 2019, https://calmatters.org/projects/california-eviction-filings-up-housing-crisis-mystery/. 3 Stacey Kurz, “Ordinance: Consideration of Establishing Residential Landlord and Tenant Provisions,” Ordinance: Consideration of Establishing Residential Landlord and Tenant Provisions § (2022), https://pub- chulavista.escribemeetings.com/filestream.ashx?DocumentId=19446.

Adoption of the ordinance would discourage ownership, development, and maintenance of rental housing, putting renters and quality housing at-risk in the long-term. The city had an opportunity to educate tenants and owners about the abundance of existing laws for over a year. Instead, the city has squandered time and resources in what is the epitome of “a solution in search of a problem.” For these reasons, CAA opposes the proposed ordinance and strongly encourages you to vote NO.

Our organizations sincerely appreciate the efforts of city staff over the course of the last year. The communication and stakeholder outreach has been a process that other jurisdictions should emulate. However, due to circumstances beyond city staff’s control, the second hearing on the ordinance has been rescheduled at least five times since July. Additionally, numerous new drafts have been provided to stakeholders, the most recent iterations without track changes to make changes easily identifiable. As trade organizations with thousands of members, we do our very best to keep members informed and let them know how they may participate in the public process. Our organizations have shared information in anticipation of hearings only to have to notify them of cancellations. It has become tantamount to “crying wolf” in their eyes and some housing providers fear this is being done purposely to dilute their grassroots participation. While our organizations don’t necessarily agree with those sentiments, the process thus far has left all stakeholders and their constituencies disenfranchised. The Council had great wisdom in establishing a Housing Advisory Commission. Considering the drastic changes made to the proposed ordinance since the last time it was presented to the Housing Advisory Commission, it is critical that the Commission’s value be leveraged. Why wouldn’t the council have its own experts review the ordinance? Again, we understand that there have been some circumstances beyond city staff’s control that have necessitated the hearing schedule changes. The tragic loss of a key city staff person has certainly left a void. However, prior to that, stakeholders were informed that at least one delay was in an effort to make sure that all councilmembers could be in attendance at the hearing. On June 28 stakeholders were notified that the hearing scheduled for July 12 was moved to July Written Communications Item 6.2 - Kirkland - Received 10/25/22 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 360 of 407 26 because staff had been informed that not all Councilmembers would be in attendance at the July 12 meeting and had therefore been asked to wait until the next meeting to present the revised Residential Landlord & Tenant Ordinance. Given that one councilmember must recuse themselves from voting, this approach seems to indicate that the proposed ordinance will only come forward when there are enough councilmembers present who may support the ordinance. This special treatment of this particular ordinance has only served to reinforce the concerns of some in the community as it relates to transparency and a fair public process overall. It has become clear that all councilmembers do not see the proposed ordinance as an emergency as some have suggested. Therefore, our organizations respectfully request that the ordinance be shelved so as not to require staff to devote valuable time and energy to creating new regulation and instead allow them to focus on education and outreach. Our organizations remain committed to educating the entire community of rights and responsibilities. Furthermore, a new Mayor, new Councilmembers, and a new City Attorney will be in place in the coming months. An ordinance like this could create permanent regulations and should be considered by those who will be in office during the time in which the law may take effect, especially considering the responsibilities that the ordinance would place on the City Attorney . Inviting input from the Housing Advisory Commission and allowing the next round of elected leaders to continue the deliberation you have started would reassure concerned constituents that this is a public process. If you have any questions, please contact George Ching, PSAR Government Affairs Director at 619-421-7811 or Molly Kirkland, SCRHA Director of Public Affairs at 858-278-8070.

Me and my husband have suffered and have been victims of harassment, discrimination, and unlawful eviction. This has been going on since April of 2022 until present. We are residents of Chula Vista and have been all our lives. We are on F street. It has affected my health disability. They never fixed the mold in the carpet, we have a roach, and infestation. I have been bitten by bugs and have had flares due to my condition. The landlord and apartment manager were notified and they didn't care. Instead they wanted to evict us, and for us to be homeless. The apartment manager has laughed at me, smirked at us, and even brought her friends over to try and scare us and to try and make our living situation horrible. Me and my husband have remained strong but the health hazards in this unit and in the whole building is unsafe for the whole community. Please I ask you to highly consider passing this extremely important ordinance to stop these illegal evictions, harassment ,and denial of fixing apartments due to unsafe health conditions. I have had visits to my doctor and urgent care so many times due to this situation. I am a remote college student and the manager purposefully disturbs me while I am in my home. Her boyfriend has peeked to see what my husband is doing like delivering food to our friendly neighbors or even throwing the trash. They also denied a refrigerator to the wonderful senior neighbors. And we have proof that they had new refrigerators and appliances in their garage room. They just love to us tenants. Its been two years they don't call pest control. We have had lizards, mice, roaches, mosquitoes and now ants. Please do something about this. The neighbors have their own locks and sticks by the windows because the homeless have entered by force the building. They even took a shower in our laundry room. When my husband informed the manager, she never closed the laundry room or did anything to fox it. Please pass this law to protect us tenants and advise us of how to report these people!.

Develop Outreach Plan City entered into a contract with NV5/Ardurra in June 2022 for assistance in facilitating stakeholder meetings, inventorying available stakeholder resources and developing an outreach strategy for initial ordinance implementation and a long-term educational campaign. An outline of the collaborative stakeholder outreach opportunities is provided later in the staff report. Tracking/Data Collection Added Ordinance requirements for landlords to provide data to be submitted to the City along with notice(s) served to resident(s), to be more fully defined in the Administrative Regulations. City staff will maintain no- fault noticing and work with CSA to establish data collection for other tenant/landlord issues and terminations. How Would Tenancy be Validated? Ordinance provides definitions on qualifications for tenancy and tools for tenants to civilly pursue. Length of Tenancy for Protections Removed the requirement that Just Cause is required only for Long-Term Tenancies. As a result, Just Cause is required to terminate a tenancy of any length. Review Relocation Metric of U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Small Area Fair Market Rent (SAFMR) to Ensure it Reflects Current Rental Market The SAFMR is updated in April of every year. While the City has seen a significant increase in rental rates in the past year, historically the Consumer Price Index (CPI) increase for the San Diego area averages 2.5-3.0% annually. A survey, further discussed below was conducted in July 2022 and showed average rents well below the SAFMR. However, to address concerns regarding increased market rents, the Ordinance has been updated to provide relocation assistance for a specified number of months at the greater of the SAFMR for that zip code or actual contracted rent. Strengthen Protections around First Right of Refusal Added requirement for landlord to include minimum criteria for requalification of tenancy with first right of refusal noticing and greater specificity of timeframes. Clarify Enforcement of Criminal Offenses Ordinance updated to specify that criminal penalties are authorized only in the case of the Owner’s interference with a Tenant’s occupancy involving (a) threat, fraud, intimidation, etc.; (b) a public nuisance; (c) cutting off utilities; or restricting trade (including delivery services) to or from a Tenant. Address Enforcement Process and Define Remedies Administrative Regulations will provide additional details for enforcement. 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 391 of 407 •Reorganization •Clarifications and Stakeholder Concerns Addressed •Length of Tenancy •Relocation Assistance •First Right of Refusal •Return to Market •Enforcement & Criminal Offenses Ordinance Updates Since May 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 392 of 407 •Deleted definition for “Long Term Tenancy” •All affected housing types receive benefits on day one of tenancy Length of Tenancy 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 393 of 407 Relocation Assistance U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Small Area Fair Market Rent (April 2022) San Diego County, CA Advisory Small Area FMRs By Unit Bedrooms ZIP Code Efficienc y 1 Bedroom 2 Bedroom 3 Bedroom 4 Bedroom 91902 $1,850 $2,040 $2,620 $3,640 $4,450 91910 $1,430 $1,580 $2,030 $2,820 $3,450 91911 $1,440 $1,600 $2,050 $2,850 $3,490 91913 $2,110 $2,340 $3,000 $4,170 $5,100 91914 $2,360 $2,610 $3,350 $4,650 $5,700 91915 $2,360 $2,610 $3,350 $4,650 $5,700 City Average $1,925 $2,130 $2,733 $3,797 $4,648 Regional Average $1,628 $1,802 $2,311 $3,210 $3,927 Exhibit 2 Comparison of Survey Data vs. SAFMR Greater of: (1) 2 months contracted rent or 3 months elderly/disabled; or (2) 2 months SAFMR or 3 months elderly/disabled 2022/10/25 City Council Post Agenda Page 394 of 407 •Residential Rental Complex re-rents units within 2 years of termination, shall offer the displaced tenant first, if: a) Tenant advises Owner in writing within thirty (30) days of the termination; and (b) Tenant provides address. •Owner has right to screen using industry accepted methods and communicates minimum screening criteria, per the Administrative Regulations.
