TRAFFIC SAFETY COMMISSION AGENDA STATEMENT
Item __5.2____
Meeting Date 12/12/24
ITEM TITLE: RESOLUTION OF THE SAFETY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
CHULA VISTA RECOMMENDING THAT THE CHULA VISTA CITY
COUNCIL REDUCE THE EXISTING SPEED LIMIT ON OLYMPIC
PARKWAY BETWEEN HUNTE PARKWAY AND OLYMPIC VISTA
ROAD FROM 50 MPH TO 45 MPH, AND THAT SCHEDULE X OF THE
REGISTER MAINTAINED IN THE OFFICE OF THE CITY ENGINEER
BE AMENDED TO REFLECT THESE SPEED LIMITS
SUBMITTED BY: City Traffic Engineer
Staff completed an Engineering and Traffic Survey for a segment of Olympic Parkway in
accordance with the California Vehicle Code, which indicates that the posting of speed limits be
determined by an Engineering and Traffic Survey for each street with a posted speed limit within
the City (with some exceptions). Based on the results of the speed survey, staff has determined
that the speed limit on Olympic Parkway between Hunte Parkway and Olympic Vista Road be
reduced from 50 mph to 45 mph (see Attachment “A”, Location Plat).
RECOMMENDATION: That the Traffic Safety Commission concur with staff and recommend
that the Chula Vista City Council reduce the existing speed limit on Olympic Parkway between
Hunte Parkway and Olympic Vista Road from 50 mph to 45 mph, and that Schedule X of the
register maintained in the Office of the City Engineer be amended to reflect these speed limits
DISCUSSION:
The California Vehicle Code (CVC) establishes minimum and maximum prima facie speed limits
for all streets in the State. The minimum prima facie speed limit is 25 miles per hour (MPH) and
the maximum speed limit is 65 MPH and an engineering and traffic survey (E&TS) is required to
change the prima facie and/or update various speed limits in the City.
The CVC requires that local agencies review changes in local speed limits every five to ten years
to determine if the existing street segment speed limits require updating due to the age of the
engineering and traffic survey or due to changes in roadway and traffic conditions.
Currently, the existing posted speed limit on Olympic Parkway between Hunte Parkway and
Olympic Vista Road is 50 mph.
City staff completed a speed survey for above segments in accordance with the California Vehicle
Code. As described in the California Vehicle Code, the survey shall include:
1) Prevailing speeds as determined by traffic engineering measurements;
2) Accident records;
3) Traffic/roadside conditions not readily apparent to the driver.

Meeting Date 12/12/24
Physical Conditions
The following information describes the existing conditions along of Olympic Parkway:
Classification Between Olympic Parkway between Hunte Parkway and Olympic Vista
Road – Four Lane Major Arterial.
Length/Width – 2,428 feet (0.46 miles) long and 88’ to 92’ wide.
Average Daily Traffic: 12,241
Number of Lanes: Four lanes with Raised Median (2 per direction).
Existing Speed Limit – Posted 50 mph.
85% Percentile Speed: 48 mph.
Striping – Four lanes of traffic with a raised median.
Parking – Parking is not allowed along both side of this segment.
Bike Lanes in both directions.
Horizontal Alignment – Horizontal Curve east of Hunte Parkway.
Accident Rate History – The accident rate at this segment is 0.32 (WB)/0.33 (EB) accidents
per million vehicle miles, which is lower than the rate of 1.00 for similar roadways in the
State of California (2021).
CONCLUSION:
When speed limits are appropriately established the following objectives are achieved:
Meaningful, unambiguous enforcement
Voluntary public compliance
Clear identification of the unreasonable violator
Elimination of unjustifiable “tolerances” of higher speed travel
Based on the 85th percentile speed of the roadway, as well as the collision rate outlined in the
Engineering/Traffic Survey, staff has determined that the speed limit on Olympic Parkway
between Hunte Parkway and Olympic Vista Road be reduced from 50 mph to 45 mph.
Should the City Council establish the proposed 45 mph speed limit, Schedule X of the register
maintained in the Office of the City Engineer be amended to reflect the speed limit decrease:
Olympic Parkway between Hunte Parkway and Olympic Vista Road, proposed Speed
Limit decrease to 45 mph.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The decrease of the speed limit would require the posting of new speed limit signs and speed limit
pavement legends. This work will be funded by an existing Traffic Engineering Capital
Improvement Project, TRF-0332, Signing and Striping Program.

RESOLUTION NO. TSC-2024-003
RESOLUTION OF THE TRAFFIC SAFETY COMMISSION
OF THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA RECOMMENDING THAT
THE CHULA VISTA CITY COUNCIL DECREASE THE
EXISTING SPEED LIMIT ON OLYMPIC PARKWAY
BETWEEN HUNTE PARKWAY TO OLYMPIC VISTA ROAD
FROM 50 MPH TO 45 MPH, AND THAT SCHEDULE X OF
THE REGISTER MAINTAINED IN THE OFFICE OF THE
CITY ENGINEER BE AMENDED TO REFLECT THE
REVISED SPEED LIMIT
WHEREAS, staff completed an Engineering and Traffic Survey (E&TS) on a segment of
Olympic Parkway from Hunte Parkway to Olympic Vista Road in accordance with the California
Vehicle Code (CVC), which stipulates that posted speed limits be determined by an Engineering
and Traffic Survey for each street with a posted speed limit within the City; and
WHEREAS, as described in the CVC, the E&TS shall include: 1) Prevailing speeds as
determined by traffic engineering measurements; 2) Collision records; and 3) Traffic/roadside
conditions not apparent to the driver; and
WHEREAS, the California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (CA MUTCD)
states that the speed limit shall be established at the nearest 5 mph increment of the 85th
percentile speed. Also, if the 5-mph reduction is applied, the E&TS shall document in writing
the conditions and justification for the lower speed limit and be approved by a registered Civil or
Traffic Engineer; and
WHEREAS, the CVC indicates that an E&TS may be valid (and thus enforceable by the
Police Department) for a period of up to fourteen (14) years or a time when conditions of the
roadway change, whichever is sooner; and
WHEREAS, with a valid E&TS, the posted speed limit on street can be enforced “prima
facie,” which means that the Police Department can use RADAR/LIDAR technology to enforce
the speed limit and the burden of proving whether the driver was proceeding at a safe speed is on
the driver; and
WHEREAS, denial of this resolution perpetuates the expired status of the E&TS for
Olympic Parkway such that the Police Department will be unable to enforce the posted speed
limit using RADAR/LIDAR technology; and
WHEREAS, based on the 85th percentile speed of the roadway and the collision rate
referenced in the E&TS, staff has determined that speed limit on Olympic Parkway between
Hunte Parkway and Olympic Vista Road should be decreased from 50 mph to 45 mph; and
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Traffic Safety Commission of the City
of Chula Vista does hereby recommend that the City Council, establish the proposed 45 mph
speed limit and that Schedule X of the register maintained in the Office of the City Engineer be
amended to reflect the speed limit increase as follows:

Justification: When the nearest 5 mph increment of the 85th-percentile speed would require a
rounding up, the speed limit may be rounded down to the nearest 5 mph increment
below the 85th percentile speed, if no further reduction is used (CVC 22358.6(c); CA-
MUTCD Section 2B.13, standard 12a, Option 2).
TRAFFIC ENGINEER’S RECOMMENDATIONS/AUTHORITY:
Posted Speed Limit: 45 MPH
This survey was prepared in accordance with the requirements of Section 627 of the California Vehicle
Code using methods prescribed in Section 2B.13 of the California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control
Devices. Based on the measured critical speeds, it is appropriate and justified to recommend the posted
speed limit be 45 MPH along the subject segment of the road.

Justification: When the nearest 5 mph increment of the 85th-percentile speed would require a
rounding up, the speed limit may be rounded down to the nearest 5 mph increment
below the 85th percentile speed, if no further reduction is used (CVC 22358.6(c); CA-
MUTCD Section 2B.13, standard 12a, Option 2).
TRAFFIC ENGINEER’S RECOMMENDATIONS/AUTHORITY:
Posted Speed Limit: 45 MPH
This survey was prepared in accordance with the requirements of Section 627 of the California Vehicle
Code using methods prescribed in Section 2B.13 of the California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control
Devices. Based on the measured critical speeds, it is appropriate and justified to recommend the posted
speed limit be 45 MPH along the subject segment of the road.

TRAFFIC SAFETY COMMISSION AGENDA STATEMENT
Item __5.3____
Meeting Date 12/12/24
ITEM TITLE: RESOLUTION OF THE SAFETY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
CHULA VISTA RECOMMENDING THAT THE CHULA VISTA CITY
COUNCIL REDUCE THE EXISTING SPEED LIMIT ON OLYMPIC
PARKWAY BETWEEN OLYMPIC VISTA ROAD AND WUESTE
ROAD FROM 45 MPH TO 40 MPH, AND THAT SCHEDULE X OF THE
REGISTER MAINTAINED IN THE OFFICE OF THE CITY ENGINEER
BE AMENDED TO REFLECT THESE SPEED LIMITS
SUBMITTED BY: City Traffic Engineer
Staff completed an Engineering and Traffic Survey for a segment of Olympic Parkway in
accordance with the California Vehicle Code, which indicates that the posting of speed limits be
determined by an Engineering and Traffic Survey for each street with a posted speed limit within
the City (with some exceptions). Based on the results of the speed survey, staff has determined
that the speed limit on Olympic Parkway between Olympic Vista Road and Wueste Road be
reduced from 45 mph to 40 mph (see Attachment “A”, Location Plat).
RECOMMENDATION: That the Traffic Safety Commission concur with staff and recommend
that the Chula Vista City Council reduce the existing speed limit on Olympic Parkway between
Olympic Vista Road and Wueste Road be reduced from 45 mph to 40 mph, and that Schedule X
of the register maintained in the Office of the City Engineer be amended to reflect these speed
limits
DISCUSSION:
The California Vehicle Code (CVC) establishes minimum and maximum prima facie speed limits
for all streets in the State. The minimum prima facie speed limit is 25 miles per hour (MPH) and
the maximum speed limit is 65 MPH and an engineering and traffic survey (E&TS) is required to
change the prima facie and/or update various speed limits in the City.
The CVC requires that local agencies review changes in local speed limits every five to ten years
to determine if the existing street segment speed limits require updating due to the age of the
engineering and traffic survey or due to changes in roadway and traffic conditions.
Currently, the existing posted speed limit on Olympic Parkway between Olympic Vista Road and
Wueste Road is 45 mph.
City staff completed a speed survey for above segments in accordance with the California Vehicle
Code. As described in the California Vehicle Code, the survey shall include:
1) Prevailing speeds as determined by traffic engineering measurements;
2) Accident records;
3) Traffic/roadside conditions not readily apparent to the driver.

Meeting Date 12/12/24
Physical Conditions
The following information describes the existing conditions along of Olympic Parkway
Classification Between Olympic Parkway between Olympic Vista Road and Wueste Road
Four Lane Major Arterial.
Length/Width – 2,833 feet (0.53 miles) long and 66’ to 88’ wide.
Average Daily Traffic: 5,902
Number of Lanes: Four lanes with Raised Median (2 per direction).
Existing Speed Limit – Posted 45 mph.
85% Percentile Speed: 41 mph (WB)/42 mph (EB).
Striping – Four lanes of traffic with a raised median.
Parking – Parking is not allowed along both side of this segment.
Bike Lanes in both directions.
Horizontal Alignment – Horizontal Curve east of Olympic Vista Road.
Accident Rate History – The accident rate at this segment is 1.53 (WB)/1.42 (EB) accidents
per million vehicle miles, which is lower than the rate of 1.00 for similar roadways in the
State of California (2021).
CONCLUSION:
When speed limits are appropriately established the following objectives are achieved:
Meaningful, unambiguous enforcement
Voluntary public compliance
Clear identification of the unreasonable violator
Elimination of unjustifiable “tolerances” of higher speed travel
Based on the 85th percentile speed of the roadway, as well as the collision rate outlined in the
Engineering/Traffic Survey, staff has determined that the speed limit on Olympic Parkway
between Olympic Vista Road and Wueste Road be reduced from 45 mph to 40 mph.
Should the City Council establish the proposed 40 mph speed limit, Schedule X of the register
maintained in the Office of the City Engineer be amended to reflect the speed limit decrease:
Olympic Parkway between Olympic Vista Road and Wueste Road, proposed Speed Limit
decrease to 40 mph.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The decrease of the speed limit would require the posting of new speed limit signs and speed limit
pavement legends. This work will be funded by an existing Traffic Engineering Capital
Improvement Project, TRF-0332, Signing and Striping Program.

RESOLUTION OF THE TRAFFIC SAFETY COMMISSION
OF THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA RECOMMENDING THAT
THE CHULA VISTA CITY COUNCIL DECREASE THE
EXISTING SPEED LIMIT ON OLYMPIC PARKWAY
BETWEEN OLYMPIC VISTA ROAD TO WUESTE ROAD
FROM 45 MPH TO 40 MPH, AND THAT SCHEDULE X OF
THE REGISTER MAINTAINED IN THE OFFICE OF THE
CITY ENGINEER BE AMENDED TO REFLECT THE
REVISED SPEED LIMIT
WHEREAS, staff completed an Engineering and Traffic Survey (E&TS) on a segment of
Olympic Parkway in accordance with the California Vehicle Code (CVC), which stipulates that
posted speed limits be determined by an Engineering and Traffic Survey for each street with a
posted speed limit within the City; and
WHEREAS, as described in the CVC, the E&TS shall include: 1) Prevailing speeds as
determined by traffic engineering measurements; 2) Accident records; and 3) Traffic/roadside
conditions not apparent to the driver; and
WHEREAS, the California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (CA MUTCD)
states that the speed limit shall be established at the nearest 5 mph increment of the 85th
percentile speed. Also, if the 5-mph reduction is applied, the E&TS shall document in writing
the conditions and justification for the lower speed limit and be approved by a registered Civil or
Traffic Engineer; and
WHEREAS, the CVC indicates that an E&TS may be valid (and thus enforceable by the
Police Department) for a period of up to fourteen (14) years or a time when conditions of the
roadway change, whichever is sooner; and
WHEREAS, with a valid E&TS, the posted speed limit on street can be enforced “prima
facie,” which means that the Police Department can use RADAR/LIDAR technology to enforce
the speed limit and the burden of proving whether the driver was proceeding at a safe speed is on
the driver; and
WHEREAS, denial of this resolution perpetuates the expired status of the E&TS for
Olympic Parkway such that the Police Department will be unable to enforce the posted speed
limit using RADAR/LIDAR technology; and
WHEREAS, based on the 85th percentile speed of the roadway and the collision rate
referenced in the E&TS, staff has determined that speed limit on Olympic Parkway between
Olympic Vista Road and Wueste Road should be decreased from 45 mph to 40 mph; and
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Traffic Safety Commission of the City
of Chula Vista does hereby recommend that the City Council, establish the proposed 40 mph

Cash and investments held by the City and the trustees continue to be invested in accordance with the
Government Code and City Council Policy 220-01 Investment Policy and Guidelines as adopted by Resolution
No. 2025-020 on February 11, 2025.
During the quarter, $25,000,000 was transferred to Bank of New York, the City’s Custodian Bank, to be used
for investment purchases. $20,000,000 was transferred from the State of California Local Agency Investment
Fund (LAIF), pooled investment account, to maintain adequate cashflows for the quarter. Additionally, thirty-
five investments matured, totaling $50,362,000. Thirteen purchases were made to replace those
investments. Purchased investments include: two corporate notes ($14,000,000), one supranational
($5,000,000) and ten U.S. treasury notes ($60,400,000). The Finance Department continues to manage the
portfolio and execute transactions as financial and economic conditions warrant. There is no further activity
to report other than routine investments.
Two-year Treasuries were yielding 4.25% at the beginning of the quarter and ended the quarter at a yield of
3.89%. As of March 31, 2025, the Weighted Yield to Maturity on the Managed Investment Portfolio was
3.81%, which was an increase of 13 basis points from the previous quarter. The average yield of the two-
year U.S. treasury note over the last twelve months is 4.26%. Purchases are made at current market yields
with fixed interest rates.
At the end of this quarter, the Weighted Average Maturity of the Managed Investment Portfolio was 1.95
years, which is an increase from 1.94 years from the prior quarter.
The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meets approximately every six weeks and determines the level
of the Federal Funds Rate. During this quarter, the FOMC met on January 28 and March 18. At their March 18
meeting, the FOMC voted to maintain the Federal Funds Rate target range. The Federal Funds Rate target
range is 4.25%-4.50%.
The following excerpts are from the statement issued by the FOMC following their March 18 meeting.

"Recent indicators suggest that economic activity has continued to expand at a solid pace. The unemployment
rate has stabilized at a low level in recent months, and labor market conditions remain solid. Inflation remains
somewhat elevated. The Committee seeks to achieve maximum employment and inflation at the rate of 2 percent
over the longer run. Uncertainty around the economic outlook has increased. The Committee is attentive to the
risks to both sides of its dual mandate. In support of its goals, the Committee decided to maintain the target
range for the federal funds rate at 4-1/4 to 4-1/2 percent. In considering the extent and timing of additional
adjustments to the target range for the federal funds rate, the Committee will carefully assess incoming data,
the evolving outlook, and the balance of risks….In assessing the appropriate stance of monetary policy, the
Committee will continue to monitor the implications of incoming information for the economic outlook. The
Committee would be prepared to adjust the stance of monetary policy as appropriate if risks emerge that could
impede the attainment of the Committee's goals. The Committee's assessments will take into account a wide
range of information, including readings on labor market conditions, inflation pressures and inflation
expectations, and financial and international developments."
The Finance Department, with the assistance of Chandler Asset Management, Inc, continues to manage the
City’s investment portfolio in accordance with the Government Code and City Council Policy 220-01
Investment Policy and Guidelines. Considering the projected timing of cash receipts and disbursements and
the structure of the Pooled Investment Portfolio, the City will be able to comfortably meet overall cash flow
needs over the next six months.
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
Considering the projected timing of cash receipts and disbursements and the structure of the Pooled
Investment Portfolio, the City should be able to comfortably meet overall cash flow needs over the next six
months. There is no direct fiscal impact as a result of this action.
ONGOING FISCAL IMPACT
There is no ongoing fiscal impact as a result of this action.

CATHOLIC SCHOOL THAT SUSPENDED STUDENT
OVER BRAIDS REVERSES DECISION
•January 15, 2020•Catholic school, Mater Dei High School, suspended a mixed-race student for violating the “dress code” on Wednesday but removed the penalty after online backlash.
•Michael Inzunza, assistant principal for student safety and discipline, reminded the sophomore of the rule that boys’ hair cannot be longer than mid-ear on the sides, touch their shirt collars, nor fall past their eyebrows in the front and ordered him to cut it. When the student refused, he was suspended.

I attended the First Friday breakfast held at the

former Deputy Mayor Alonso Gonzales and
learned he is on the board of the Chamber of
Commerce, he was introduced that way and I
have it on recorded video. A former Deputy
Mayor had input on the 2024-2025 budget, just
to leave mid fiscal year to be on the BOARD of
Chula Vista's lobbying committee. Smells like
possible embezzlement or money laundering
may have occurred and as a Chula Vista resident I
am concerned with the lack of transparency.

The recent revelation of the unethical business
practices of Democrats in Chula Vista has come to

City Councilmember Andrea Cardenas
showing that corruption is involved
with all the Council members.
The fact that Democrats in Chula Vista have been
engaging in such unethical business practices is
truly disappointing, and it raises questions about their commitment to
transparency and accountability . It’s crucial that these issues are addressed and
resolved promptly to restore the trust of the people of Chula Vista in their elected

DISCUSSION
San Diego Community Power (SDCP) is a Community Choice Aggregator (CCA) that buys electricity for
residents and businesses within its member agencies, then partners with San Diego Gas and Electric (SDG&E)
to deliver that electricity to SDCP customers. The City of Chula Vista was a founding member of SDCP, which
was formed in 2019. Upon launching in 2021, Chula Vista energy accounts community-wide were
automatically enrolled into the SDCP program. In addition to the City of Chula Vista, current SDCP member
agencies include the cities of San Diego, National City, Encinitas, Imperial Beach, La Mesa, and the County of
San Diego. SDCP currently serves more than 955,000 accounts.
SDCP hosts a Community Advisory Committee (CAC) to receive input and recommendations from the
community and each member organization is allotted two CAC members. The City of Chula Vista is
represented by Anthony Sclafani but currently has an open seat. Community members interested in applying
to represent Chula Vista may visit the SDCP CAC website for more information or to apply (Community
Advisory Committee Membership Application). SDCP also provides information to community members
through regular mailers, such as the joint rate mailer that compares SDCP’s and SDG&E’s rates and electricity
sources. Another mailer includes the power content label that provides information about greenhouse gas
emissions. Both informational items are sent out annually. Interested parties can sign up to receive regular
updates through SDCP’s newsletter at: https://sdcommunitypower.org/news-and-events.
SDCP offers multiple electricity products with varying blends of renewable energy. SDCP provides a default
service of 55% clean energy (PowerOn), a lower-cost rate with 45% clean energy (PowerBase), an option to
purchase 100% clean energy (Power100) or 100% clean energy with Green-e certification (Power100
Green+). All municipal accounts are enrolled on the Power100 rate. SDCP expects to increase renewable
energy to 100% by 2035 with interim targets of 75% by 2027 and 85% by 2030. In addition to the electricity
they provide, SDCP also offers community programs to help residents save or produce energy. Some of these
programs are:
EV Flex Connect - a pilot program designed to create optimized charging schedules for drivers who
charge their electric vehicles (EVs) at home. These schedules help shift energy usage away from peak
demand periods when electricity costs are highest, helping participants save money, improve the
reliability of the electric grid and earn incentives.
Learn more or sign up at: www.sdcommunitypower.org/programs/ev-flex-connect.
Solar Battery Savings Program – program provides financial incentives to support solar and battery
installations. Program enrollment is currently closed but SDCP intends to re-open program
enrollment in 2025.
Learn more at: www.sdcommunitypower.org/programs/solar-battery-savings-program-2.
Smart Home Flex - a new pilot program that allows SDCP to contact participants’ smart thermostats
automatically and temporarily adjust settings to shift energy use away from peak demand times
when energy is most expensive. These adjustments can save participants money and enhance the
reliability of the energy grid.

San Diego Regional Energy Network (SDREN) – a regional ratepayer funded energy efficiency
program that will launch programs later in 2025.
Learn more at: www.sdcommunitypower.org/programs/ren.
Member Agency Grants – grants of $50,000 provided to member agencies to promote clean energy.
The City of Chula Vista is using the grant to launch a portable solar and battery lending program in
the libraries. A similar program to be used by staff for City operations was recently launched.
Clean Energy Grants - a partnership between San Diego Foundation (SDF) and SDCP, the Community
Clean Energy Grant Program awards funding to new and existing projects that move communities
towards a healthier, more sustainable, clean energy future.
For more information or to apply visit: www.sdfoundation.org/nonprofits/apply-for-a-
grant/community-clean-energy-2025-grant-program.
SDCP will attend local events to provide more information; or, learn more and contact their staff at
www.sdcommunitypower.org.
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 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 as a result of hearing this report.
ONGOING FISCAL IMPACT
There are no ongoing fiscal impacts as a result of hearing this report.

ITEM TITLE
Campaign Contributions: Consider Revisions to Municipal Code Chapter 2.52 Regarding Various Provisions
of the Campaign Contribution Ordinance
Report Number: 25-0100
Location: No specific geographic location
Department: City Clerk & City Attorney
G.C. § 84308 Regulations Apply: No
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.
Recommended Action
Place an ordinance on first reading to make comprehensive updates to the Chula Vista Campaign
Contribution Ordinance, Municipal Code Chapter 2.52, including contribution limits, time period for
accepting contributions, rules for outstanding debt, complaint processing, and removing duplicative
provisions. (First Reading)
SUMMARY
Adoption of the ordinance would make comprehensive amendments to the City’s Campaign Contribution
Ordinance including changes to contribution limits, the time period for accepting contributions, rules for
outstanding debt, complaint processing, and removing duplicative provisions. The proposed ordinance is
based on past direction from the City Council, as well as recommendations by the City Attorney and City
Clerk.
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
The Board of Ethics heard a presentation on the substantial elements of the proposed ordinance on
4/16/2025.
DISCUSSION
Background
In accordance with City Charter section 905, it is the City’s policy to avoid the potential for undue or improper
influence over Elected Officials resulting from excessive campaign contributions. In furtherance of that
purpose, the City Council is required to adopt reasonable regulations related to campaign contributions to
be contained in the Municipal Code.
The City’s campaign contribution ordinance aims to prevent corruption, ensure transparency, promote
fairness, encourage accountability, foster public trust, and promote ethical behavior in the political process.
In 1989, the City adopted Chula Vista Municipal Code Chapter 2.52 “Campaign Contributions,” in compliance
with the City’s Charter requirements (Campaign Contribution Ordinance).
In 2011, based on the City Council’s direction, City staff conducted a comprehensive review of the Campaign
Contribution Ordinance and amended certain provisions to address the City Council’s concerns regarding
the amount of City resources used to investigate complaints filed under the Campaign Contribution
Ordinance, potential abuse of the Campaign Contribution Ordinance, and potential duplication of efforts by
the City and other agencies. The City updated the Campaign Contribution Ordinance through a series of
additional amendments to its current form.
On February 21, 2023, the City Attorney gave a presentation on potential revisions to the Campaign
Contribution Ordinance and the Council formed an ad-hoc subcommittee of the City Council consisting of
Mayor McCann and former Councilmember Gonzalez to finalize an updated Campaign Contribution
Ordinance for future City Council consideration.
On October 24, 2023, Mayor McCann and former Councilmember Gonzalez gave an update from the
subcommittee on campaign contributions. The City Council then directed the City Clerk and the City Attorney
to return to a future City Council meeting with an item recommending updates to the Campaign Contribution
Ordinance. The subcommittee’s recommendations were as follows:
1. Set the personal and corporate contribution limit at one-half of the state limit for members of the
State Senate ($2,950 for 2025-2026)
2. Increase the amount a candidate may loan to their own campaign committee to $25,000
3. Remove the requirement to notify opponents of loan contributions, as this is duplicative of existing
reporting requirements
4. No recommended changes to the prohibition on contributions from political action committees
The Chula Vista Municipal Code Section 2.52.040 (D) requires the City Clerk to adjust the campaign
contribution limits every odd-numbered year to reflect any changes in the Consumer Price Index for the San
Diego area for the two-year period ending on December 31st of the previous year, and requires these
Page 143 of 197
City of Chula Vista - City Council
May 13, 2025 Post Agenda
P a g e | 3
adjustments to be rounded to the nearest $10. Adoption of contribution limits that meet or exceed the
percentage of change in the Consumer Price Index rounding to the nearest $10 for individuals ($440) and
political party committees ($1,530) shall satisfy those certain obligations of the City Clerk outlined in Chula
Vista Municipal Code Section 2.52.040 (D) that require City Clerk shall adjust the contribution limits to reflect
any changes in the Consumer Price Index for the San Diego area for the two-year period ending on December
31st of the previous year.
The Chula Vista Municipal Code Chapter 2.52 has not undergone comprehensive updates since 2011. Due to
the requirement to amend the contribution limit, the City chose to use this opportunity to review what other
changes should be included. The City Attorney conducted a comprehensive review of the Campaign
Contribution Ordinance and recommended certain revisions to prevent corruption, ensure transparency,
promote fairness, encourage accountability, foster public trust, and promote ethical behavior in the political
process. The City Clerk’s review and recommended revisions focus on administrative and technical aspects,
including clarifications to reduce confusion, reformatting and reorganizing for clarity, and incorporating
recommendations from the subcommittee for the full City Council’s consideration. The draft amended
Campaign Contribution Ordinance is included as Attachment 1 for the City Council’s consideration.
Proposed Revisions
Based on past direction from the City Council and City Council subcommittee, as well as a comprehensive
review by the City Attorney and City Clerk, the following revisions, among others, to the campaign
contribution ordinance are presented for the City Council’s consideration.
1. Increase the limitation on the dollar amount of campaign contributions by persons to a candidate in
CVMC 2.52.040.A. to $800, based on the City Attorney’s recommendation due to the limit being
consistent with the City of San Diego and other cities in the region.
2. Increase the limitation on the dollar amount of campaign contributions by political party committees
to a candidate in CVMC 2.52.040.B. to $1,530, based on the increase in the consumer price index.
3. Modify the starting date for a candidate’s acceptance of contribution in order to remove ambiguity.
4. Increase the amount a candidate can personally loan their campaign for a single election contest to
$25,000, based on the subcommittee’s recommendation.
5. Add a timeframe for the repayment of loans to remove ambiguity. The proposed timeframe is consistent
with state law.
6. Remove the existing requirement in CVMC 2.52.060 to provide notice when a candidate contributes
personal funds to their campaign exceeding $5,000 due to ambiguity and duplication with state law.
7. Clarify enforcement processing and enforcement obligations, and add guidelines for the completion of
complaint investigations currently contained in CVMC 2.52.140.
8. Remove listed duties of the City Clerk contained in CVMC 2.52.130, as the provisions are duplicative or
reduced from those that are required by state law.
9. Remove the requirement that the campaign contribution account be at a financial institution located in
San Diego County, as state law requires the account to be in the State of California and this is a regular
point of confusion among candidates and treasurers, requiring cumbersome processes to reestablish
bank accounts.
10. Additional revisions to add defined terms, remove ambiguity, and remove provisions that are duplicative
of state law.

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 Councilmembers 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 Councilmember, 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.
ONGOING FISCAL IMPACT
There is no ongoing fiscal impact.

integrity of the City’s electoral process, and to serve the best interests of the citizens of this City

RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
CHULA VISTA EXPRESSING SUPPORT FOR THE LAWSUIT
FILED BY THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA AND GAVIN
NEWSOM, IN HIS OFFICIAL CAPACITY AS GOVERNOR OF
CALIFORNIA, CHALLENGING FEDERAL TARIFFS THAT
THREATEN THE ECONOMIC STABILITY OF THE BORDER
REGION
WHEREAS, the City of Chula Vista is part of a unique binational region centered around
the busiest land border crossing in the world, through which over 100,000 people travel daily for
work, education, tourism, and commerce; and
WHEREAS, the San Diego–Tijuana region generates over $60 billion in international trade
annually, supporting jobs and economic growth throughout California and the United States; and
WHEREAS, the region is economically and socially integrated, with a workforce, business
community, and transportation systems that depend on cross-border mobility, predictability, and
stability; and
WHEREAS, on April 16, 2025, the State of California, by and through Governor Gavin
Newsom, filed a lawsuit challenging the broad tariffs imposed by the federal government, citing
their disproportionate and destabilizing impact on California’s border communities; and
WHEREAS, these tariffs have increased costs, introduced economic uncertainty, and
undermined key sectors vital to the region's economy—not only tourism and trade, but also
manufacturing, supply chain logistics, and small businesses that depend on binational cooperation; and
WHEREAS, the City of Chula Vista recognizes that the strength of our regional economy is
directly tied to the health and efficiency of our border infrastructure and cross-border relationships—
any disruption at the border reverberates across local industries and households; and
WHEREAS, the City is already seeing the consequences of these policies through
constrained fiscal planning and uncertainty during the current budget cycle, complicating efforts
to invest confidently in public infrastructure and services; and
WHEREAS, it is in the City’s interest to advocate for economic stability, regional
resilience, and policies that reflect the lived reality and interconnectedness of our border region.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Chula Vista
that it expresses its support for Governor Gavin Newsom’s lawsuit challenging federal tariffs, and
directs the City Manager to transmit a copy of this resolution to the Office of the Governor and
any other relevant state or federal agencies.
