Before the vote, there is no separate discussion of these items unless a member of the City Council or staff removes the item from the Consent Calendar. Public Comment provides an opportunity to address the City Council on any matter not listed on the agenda that is within the jurisdiction of the City Council. Under the Brown Act, the City Council cannot take action on matters not listed on the agenda. Public Hearings are held on matters specifically required by law. Action Items are items expected to cause discussion and/or action by the City Council but do not legally require a public hearing. Closed Session may only be attended by members of the City Council, support staff, legal counsel, and others specified on the agenda. Closed session may be held in very limited circumstances as authorized by law. CITY COUNCIL ACTIONS Resolutions are formal expressions of opinion or intention of the City Council and are usually effective immediately. Ordinances are laws adopted by the City Council. Ordinances usually amend, repeal, or supplement the Municipal Code; provide zoning specifications; or appropriate money for specific purposes. Most ordinances require two hearings and 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.

Therefore, pursuant to State Guidelines Section 15060(c)(3) no environmental review is required. Recommended Action Adopt the resolution approving an agreement with SC Commercial, LLC DBA SC Fuels (“SC Fuels”) to provide motor vehicle fuel supply and delivery. SUMMARY Gasoline and renewable diesel are purchased for use in City vehicles and equipment. The current contract is set to expire on June 30, 2026. The City recently solicited bids for motor vehicle fuel supply and delivery. Staff recommends awarding a contract to SC Fuels for the purchase of motor vehicle fuel on an as-needed basis. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The proposed action was reviewed for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”), and it was 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. BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION Not applicable. Page 50 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda P a g e | 2 DISCUSSION The Public Works Department procures gasoline and renewable diesel to support the operation of City vehicles and equipment. The City maintains a fleet of over 650 vehicles and equipment units that utilize City fueling stations. Request for Proposal Process On October 24, 2025, the City posted a Request for Proposals (“RFP”) P15-2026 to PlanetBids, seeking a competitive proposal from qualified vendors to provide the Public Works Department with fuel supply and delivery services. Through PlanetBids, 48 potential bidders were notified with 19 prospective bidders downloading the bid documentation. Of the 19 prospective bidders, the City received five (5) responsive proposals. A selection committee composed of Public Works Department staff completed a comprehensive evaluation of the proposals based on criteria that included the contractors’ experience with fuel supply and delivery, the ability to provide the services, price, and references. Following the evaluation, the selection committee is recommending award of the contract to SC Fuels. A Notice of Intent to Award was issued to all firms that submitted proposals on February 5, 2026. Scope of Work SC Fuels shall provide bulk fuel services for unleaded, and renewable diesel fuels to all City fixed fuel sites on an “as needed” basis. City fuel sites include the following:  Fire Station 3 (100 Moss St)  Fire Station 4 (850 Paseo Ranchero)  Fire Station 5 (341 Orange Ave)  Fire Station 7 (1640 Santa Venetia)  Public Works Corp Yard (1800 Maxwell Road) Pricing The price of the fuel is determined on the date of delivery and is based on the Oil Pr ice Information Service (“OPIS”) “Unbranded Low Rack” fuel price benchmark for San Diego. The “Unbranded Low Rack” is a snapshot of the lowest supplier posting in the OPIS rack market for the day. The RFP required contractors to propose a Market Differential for the OPIS Rack market for each given delivery item listed in the RFP. The Market Differential is a four-digit decimal numerical value, that is added to the benchmark index for the price of a given fuel product. The market differential includes all cost and profit components determined by the contractor, excluding any applicable fuel taxes. The rack price plus the market differential is the total price to be paid by the City upon delivery of fuel. To ensure the City is receiving the best possible price , staff will monitor the fuel delivery invoices. Contractor Agreement The agreement for fuel supply and delivery will be for an initial term of three (3) years, with two (2) one- year options to extend, with a total not-to-exceed limitation of $10,000,000. The initial term of the agreement is effective July 1, 2026 and is anticipated to conclude on June 30, 2029, and shall not exceed $6,000,000. The agreement with SC Fuels is included as Attachment 1. Page 51 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda P a g e | 3 DECISION-MAKER CONFLICT Staff have reviewed the decision contemplated by this action and have 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 are not independently aware and have 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 The proposed agreement is effective July 1, 2026, resulting in no current-year fiscal impact. ONGOING FISCAL IMPACT Due to various factors including the volatile nature of fuel prices and a continuously growing fleet, the contract allows for an annual expenditure of approximately $2.0 million per year during the term of the contract. Funding for this contract is included in the Central Garage Fund budget and is included in the fiscal year 2026-27proposed budget. Costs relating to services provided by SC Fuels in subsequent fiscal years will be considered as part of the annual budget development process. If the two agreement extensions are authorized, the table below outlines the not-to-exceed amount for the 60-month term. Contract capacity is $2.0 million per year but actuals will fluctuate from year to year based on actual usage.

Therefore, pursuant to State Guidelines Section 15060(c)(3) no environmental review is required. Recommended Action Adopt a resolution approving a contractor service agreement with Wittman Enterprises, LLC (“Wittman”) a subsidiary of EMS Management & Consultants, Inc. a North Carolina corporation, for emergency medical services (“EMS”) billing services. SUMMARY On May 12, 2020, the City Council approved Chula Vista Council Resolution No. 2020-102 approving a program for the Fire Department to provide exclusive ambulance transport services within the City of Chula Vista, the City of Imperial Beach and the Bonita Sunnyside Fire Protection District. The current contract for EMS billing services for the Ambulance Transport program expires June 30, 2026. In October of 2025, the City posted a Request for Proposal (RFP P11-2026) to PlanetBids, soliciting competitive proposals from experienced and qualified firms to provide EMS billing and collection services. Based on the evaluation process, staff recommends entering into an agreement with Wittman Enterprises , LLC for an initial term of five (5) years with up to two (2) two-year option terms and one (1) final one-year option for a total of ten (10) years expiring June 30, 2036. Page 76 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda P a g e | 2 ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The proposed activity has been reviewed for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”), and it has been 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. BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION Not Applicable. DISCUSSION In October of 2025, the City posted a Request for Proposal, (RFP P11-2026) to PlanetBids, soliciting competitive proposals from experienced and qualified firms to provide EMS billing and collection services. EMS billing and collections services are a critical component of the City’s Ambulance Transport Program. The City received four (4) responses to RFP P11-2026. Each proposal was reviewed for qualifications and evaluated by a selection committee, consisting of staff from the Fire department. The proposals were ranked, and the top two (2) respondents were invited to provide a presentation and demonstrate their services in response to this solicitation to the selection committee. Presentations were made by Digitech and Wittman. Upon review of the responses and subsequent staff presentation by the two finalists, it was decided to award the contract to Wittman. Wittman was selected due to their experience and knowledge in EMS billing, extensive reporting and attention to their customers and competitive pricing. The agreement will commence on July 1, 2026, for a period of five (5) years expiring June 30, 2031, and may be extended for up to two (2) two-year option terms and one (1) final one-year option for a total of ten (10) years expiring June 30, 2036. The compensation to Wittman will be 2.95% of net receipts billed and collected upon completion of all required services to City's satisfaction with an anticipated annual cost set not-to-exceed $1,000,000, and a total not-to-exceed amount of $10,000,000 through June 30, 2036. DECISION-MAKER CONFLICT Staff have reviewed the decision contemplated by this action and have 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 are not independently aware and have 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 as this contract is effective July 1, 2026. Page 77 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda P a g e | 3 ONGOING FISCAL IMPACT If approved, the proposed agreement with Wittman Enterprises, LLC would authorize expenses for EMS billing services with an amount not-to-exceed $1,000,000 annually. If all three agreement extensions are authorized, the table below outlines the not-to-exceed amount for the 10-year term. Initial Term FY 2026-27 to FY 2030-31 Extension 1 FY 2031-32 & FY 2032-33 Extension 2 FY 2033-34 & FY 2034-35 Extension 3 FY 2035-36 TOTAL $5,000,000 $2,000,000 $2,000,000 $1,000,000 $10,000,000 Costs relating to services provided by Wittman Enterprises, LLC in subsequent fiscal years will be considered as part of the annual budget process.

Rancho Del Rey Parkway and S. Rancho Del Ray Parkway Department: Fire G.C. § 84308 Regulations Apply: No Environmental Notice: The Project qualifies for a Categorical Exemption pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act State Guidelines Section 15301 Class 1 (Existing Facilities) and Section 15304 Class 4 (Minor Alterations to Land). Recommended Action Adopt a resolution accepting the San Diego Regional Fire Foundation grant of $45,000 and appropriating funds for that purpose. (4/5 Vote Required) SUMMARY The Fire Department applied for the San Diego Regional Fire Foundation Grant for assistance in supporting wildfire mitigation efforts. The San Diego Regional Fire Foundation awarded $45,000 in grant funds for the Chula Vista Fire Department Fuels Crew to perform hazardous fuels reduction in Rice Canyon. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The proposed activity has been reviewed for compliance with the Calif ornia Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), and it has been determined that the project qualifies for a Categorical Exemption pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15301 Class 1 (Existing Facilities) and Section 15304 Class 4 (Minor Alterations to Land), because the proposed project would not result in a significant effect on the environment, create a cumulative impact, damage a scenic highway, or cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource. Thus, no further environmental review is required. Page 112 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda P a g e | 2 BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION On April 10, 2025 meeting, the Measure A Citizens’ Oversight Committee received the Proposed Fiscal Year 2025-26 Measure A Public Safety Spending Plan and determined that the proposed expenditures comply with the requirements of Measure A. The fiscal year 2025-26 Measure A Public Safety Spending Plan includes funding for the Fuels Crew program, which will be partially supported by the San Diego Regional Fire Foundation Grant. DISCUSSION The City of Chula Vista Hazard Mitigation Plan classifies wildfire as posing a highly significant threat to the City and its residents. Chula Vista has several residential communities and commercial structures built in and around many wildland and open space areas. A number of these structures were developed prior to the enactment of the City’s Urban-Wildland interface Code in 2000. Additionally, Chula Vista’s eastern boundary abuts a rural mountainous region that is rated as a very high fire hazard severity zone. Wildfire is rated as a “high” hazard within the City because of the amount of open space and canyon areas that are in the center city. These areas, if involved in a wildland fire, have the potential to affect much of the City’s population. The Fire Department’s Fuels Crew is actively engaged in wildfire mitigation efforts, performing wildfire education and hazardous fuels reduction in wildland areas throughout the City. The mission of the Fuels Crew is to reduce the wildfire risk to the public through the Hazardous Fuels Reduction Program. This program is intended to address the City’s potential for wildfire within the wildland-urban interface and reduce the risk to life and property while fostering healthy landscapes that are resilient to wildfire. By reducing wildfire risk, the City creates safer communities and safer places to recreate, while generating awareness for fire safety and preparedness. Additionally, by performing hazardous fuels reduction activities, aimed at keeping wildfires smaller and more manageable, the City creates a safer environment for first responders to combat wildfires and reduce the risk of loss of life and property. The San Diego Regional Fire Foundation strives to make San Diego the safest county in the nation from fire related incidents. To accomplish this mission, the foundation supports programs throughout San Diego County by working closely with fire departments, community-based organizations and other partners to identify and raise funds for needs related to fire safety, preparedness, and response. The Fire Department applied to the San Diego Regional Fire Foundation for funding to support wildfire mitigation in Rice Canyon, outlined on the next page. The San Diego Regional Fire Foundation has allocated funding to support one-third of the cost to complete the project. The remaining two-thirds of the funding was previously allocated through Measure A in the annual budget of the Fuels Crew program.

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. CURRENT-YEAR FISCAL IMPACT Approval of this resolution will result in the acceptance of $45,000 from the San Diego Regional Fire Foundation and an increase to appropriations of $45,000 to the Other Expenses category of the Fire Grants Section of the State Grants Fund. This will fund one-third of the vegetation management project. The remaining two-thirds of the project expenses are included in the fiscal year 2025-26 budget for the Measure A Sales Tax Fund and Fire Grants Section of the State Grants Fund, resulting in no net fiscal impact to the General Fund.

That grant application included $45,000 of funding for the Chula Vista Fire Department (Chula Vista) to conduct a fuels management project in Chula Vista's Rice Canyon. Under the terms of that grant, and as previously agreed upon by Chula Vista and the Fire Foundation, the fuels management project in Rice Canyon will cost $135,000 with the Fire Foundation providing $45,000 (1/3 of the cost) and Chula Vista will fund the remaining $90,000 (2/3 of the cost). The Fire Foundation hereby commits that it has the $45,000 for its share of the project costs. The Fire Foundation will provide its 1/3 of project costs up to $45,000 upon the completion of the fuels management project and Chula Vista providing: 1) evidence of the costs of the project; 2) photo documentation showing the area treated before and after the work is completed -the before and after photos / drone footage should be taken from the same location; and 3) data on the amount of vegetation treated, both the quantity and acreage using metrics agreed to in previous grants.

Recommended Action Adopt a resolution accepting a grant award from the Roy and Marian Holleman Foundation in the amount of $29,000 to fund repairs and improvements to the Animal Care Facility and deep drain cleaning in the dog kennels, amending the fiscal year 2025-26 budget, and appropriating funds for that purpose. (4/5 Vote Required) SUMMARY The City of Chula Vista has received a grant award from the Roy and Marian Holleman Foundation in the amount of $29,000. These funds are designated for improvements to the animal receiving area at the Animal Care Facility and deep drain cleaning in the dog kennels. Staff requests that $29,000 be appropriated to the Other Expenses category of the Animal Services Grants section of the Other Grants Fund. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The proposed project has been reviewed for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), and it has been determined that the project qualifies for a Class 1 Categorical Exemption pursuant to Section 15301 (Existing Facilities) of the State CEQA Guidelines because the proposed project consists of the repair, maintenance, and minor alteration of existing facilities involving negligible or no expansion of existing or former use. Further, the project would not result in a significant effect on the environment, create a significant cumulative impact, damage a scenic highway, or cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource. Thus, no further environmental review is required. Page 118 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda P a g e | 2 BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION Not applicable DISCUSSION The City of Chula Vista (“City”) has received a grant award from the Roy and Marian Holleman Foundation in the amount of $29,000 to support targeted improvements at the Animal Care Facility. A portion of these funds are designated to repair and replace damaged flooring in the animal receiving area. The existing flooring presents a risk for the spread of infectious disease and was identified for replacement during the most recent inspection by the California Veterinary Medical Board on December 31, 2024. Grant funds will also be used to install heavy-duty mesh weather barriers above the existing dog runs in the receiving area. These mesh barriers will provide protection from the elements, including rain, wind, and temperature fluctuations, while maintaining an open-air layout which is most conducive to disease control. These improvements will benefit both animals and staff and help protect equipment located in this area. Plastic barriers will be added between dog runs to reduce stress, limit potential disease transmission between animals, and minimize aggressive interactions that may result in injury. The remaining funds will be used to clean the drain system in the dog kennels. The drains have experienced blockages in prior years, resulting in unsanitary conditions that increase the risk of disease transmission. Grant funding will be used to clean the drain system three times within the grant period. Staff requests that $29,000 be appropriated to the Other Expenses category of the Animal Services Grants section of the Other Grants Fund; this appropriation is fully offset by grant revenues. DECISION-MAKER CONFLICT 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.

There is no net fiscal impact as a result of this action because the grant funds fully offset the costs.

Recommended Action Conduct the public hearing and introduce an ordinance amending Chula Vista Municipal Code (“CVMC”) Title 1 (General Provisions), Title 3 (Revenue and Finance), Title 5 (Business Licenses, Taxes, and Regulations), Title 10 (Vehicles and Traffic), Title 12 (Streets and Sidewalks), Title 15 (Buildings and Construction), Title 17 (Environmental Quality), Title 18 (Subdivisions), Title 19 (Planning and Zoning), and Title 21 (Historic Preservation). (First Reading) SUMMARY This item consists of proposed amendments to the CVMC covering numerous topics. These updates will help streamline and clarify permit processes/regulations and comply with State Law. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The proposed legislative action was reviewed for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) and determined that the action qualifies for the “common sense” exemption under State CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3). The action involves only updates and modifications to the CVMC, including creating additional standards for temporary storage containers, streamlining permitting of fueling facilities, and clarifying the process for administrative citations. Furthermore, the action of updating and modifying the CVMC with procedural and clerical changes will not result in an intensification of uses or a change in development potential within the City of Chula Vista (“City”) above what already is permitted under the existing land use and zoning policies of the CMVC that are being updated. Based on an analysis of the nature Page 133 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda P a g e | 2 and type of these procedural and clerical changes to the CVMC, there is a certainty that there is no possibility that the action may have a significant effect on the environment. BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION On November 12, 2025, the Planning Commission (“Commission”) considered the proposed amendments to the CVMC and voted 6-0-1 to continue the item to the January 14, 2026 meeting, to provide the Commission additional time to review the proposed amendments, and, for staff to further research questions raised by the Commission during the hearing. On January 14, 2026, the Commission voted 4-2-1 to adopt a Resolution recommending approval of the proposed amendments (Attachment 1). During the presentation, staff addressed Commissioner’s comments and questions related to the readability of the proposed changes in strikeout-underline format, the duration of recreational vehicle habitation, and fees for grading violations. During the public hearing, staff also addressed Commissioner’s questions related to the timely and reasonable resolution of code enforcement violations, the process for exempting certain non-profit organizations from development impact fees, location and duration of temporary storage containers, and appropriate timeframes for recreational vehicle habitation. Following deliberation and a multi-motion process related to the appropriate length of time for recreational vehicle habitation, the Commission ultimately adopted the Resolution as recommended by staff. DISCUSSION Proposed Amendments A list of the proposed code amendments can be found within Table 1. Each individual item is grouped into three (3) broader categories: Procedural, State Law Compliance, and Land Use and Development. “Procedural” refers to revisions that are procedural in nature and/or contain formatting changes. In this revision, this includes the following items: 1) Expanding the procedures for administrative citations and enforcement; 2) Clarifying the permit expiration process for cannabis businesses; and 3) Making consistent the timelines and procedures for public noticing and appeal applications. “State Law Compliance” refers to revisions required with continued State Law compliance. This includes the following items: 1) Establishing a permitting process for hydrogen fueling facilities pursuant to Government Code Section 65850.7; and 2) Clarifying what development projects are exempt from development impact fees, pursuant to Government Code Section 66001. “Land Use and Development” refers to revisions within Title 19 to land use or development standards. This includes the following items: 1) Temporary and Permanent Storage Containers; and 2) Recreational Vehicle Storage and Habitation.

Add language stating cannabis licenses are no longer valid if the City does not receive a renewal application by the previous year’s license expiration date.  Title 5 (Business Licenses, Taxes, and Regulations) Public Noticing and Appeal Processing Timeframes Discrepancies exist within the CVMC related to the timeframes for both public noticing and appeal applications; some are based on business days and others on calendar days, creating confusion. 1) Development projects requiring a public notice and adoption of an ordinance will require a 20-calendar day review period prior to the hearing (Government Code Section 65854). 2) Development projects requiring a public notice and an adoption of a resolution will require a 10-calendar day review period prior to the hearing. 3) Appeal period timeframes for all project types will be 10 calendar days after the decision hearing date.  Title 10 (Vehicles and Traffic)  Title 12 (Streets and Sidewalks)  Title 15 (Buildings and Construction)  Title 17 (Environmental Quality)  Title 18 (Subdivisions)  Title 19 (Planning and Zoning)  Title 21 (Historic Preservation) State Law Compliance Topic Issue Solution CVMC Location Development Impact Fee Project Exemptions Government Code Section 66001 requires all development that contributes to the need for public facilities, including publicly initiated projects, must bear its proportionate share of cost. Exempting such projects effectively shifts their impact costs to unrelated private developments, violating the principles of nexus and proportionality. Additionally, fee allocations must reflect actual, Revise the applicable CVMC sections for consistency with Government Code Section 66001.  Title 3 (Revenue and Finance) Page 135 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda P a g e | 4 measurable impacts from the development benefiting from the exemption. Hydrogen Fueling Facilities Government Code Section 65850.7 requires jurisdictions larger than 250,000 people to allow hydrogen fueling facilities in commercial and industrial zones. Allow hydrogen fueling stations as a permitted use in commercial and industrial zones.  Title 19 (Planning and Zoning) Land Use & Development Topic Issue Solution CVMC Location Temporary and Permanent Storage Containers Typically, temporary containers are used for moving and storage purposes. Permanent storage containers are typically used by business owners for storage in the rear of properties. Additional language is needed regarding the placement/location of said containers, and the permitting process if they are to be located within the public right-of-way. Clarify that a container shall be placed first on-site either in a garage or driveway, and then in the public right-of- way. Specify a temporary encroachment permitting process will be required for any container to be temporarily stored in the public right-of-way.  Title 19 (Planning and Zoning) Recreational Vehicle Storage and Habitation Residential property owners can store recreational vehicles and/or trailers on their property. However, City Code Enforcement Officers routinely deal with complaints from the public regarding people living in these vehicles for extended periods of time. Additionally, there are two (2) separate sections within the CVMC about this topic that need to be consolidated into one resource. Consolidate two (2) sections within this Title to create one area for recreational vehicle storage and habitation standards and establish timeframes for vehicle habitation to discourage extended or permanent residency.  Title 19 (Planning and Zoning) CONCLUSION To streamline improvements for both the overall City and specifically process improvements in the Development Services Department, staff recommends that the City Council adopt an ordinance as recommended by Staff amending CVMC Title 1 (General Provisions), Title 3 (Revenue and Finance), Title 5 Page 136 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda P a g e | 5 (Business Licenses, Taxes, and Regulations), Title 10 (Vehicles and Traffic), Title 12 (Streets and Sidewalks), Title 15 (Buildings and Construction), Title 17 (Environmental Quality), Title 18 (Subdivisions), Title 19 (Planning and Zoning), and Title 21 (Historic Preservation) as recommended by the Commission and included as part of Attachments 2 and 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 California 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. ONGOING FISCAL IMPACT There is no ongoing fiscal impact to the General Fund or Development Services Fund as a result of this action. ATTACHMENTS 1.

FD. The procedures remedies in CVMC Title 1 may be used as a supplement to criminal or judicial enforcement action, or both, or in lieu thereof. Selection of one method shall not preclude the use of any other method or combination of methods when appropriate. GE. The terms “abatement,” “City Manager,” “code enforcement officer,” “Director,” “nuisance,” and “responsible party” are as defined in CVMC Section 1.04.010. Item 7.1 - Revised 5/5/2026 Page 140 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda 4 1.41.020 Reserved.1.41.020 Overview of process. A. Violations of the Municipal Code affecting uses of or conditions upon real property may be corrected through the issuance of a notice of violation pursuant to CVMC 1.41.030 to the responsible party requiring certain actions to be taken to bring the property or structure into compliance. The responsible party will be allowed a reasonable period of time in which to correct the violation, normally not less than 10 calendar days. Failure to comply within the time prescribed can then result in the issuance of an administrative citation in accordance with CVMC 1.41.100 or any other method or combination of methods deemed appropriate. B. An administrative citation is a notice to the responsible party which mandates the corrective action and establishes a fine as a penalty for the prior noncompliance of the notice of violation. Subsequent administrative citations may be issued with increased penalty. Corrective action that may be required of a responsible party includes, but is not limited to, the removal of encroachments into public property, the mitigation or restoration of land or adjoining property for illegal grading or development, the removal or modification of blockages of drainage ways and the removal of structures to rectify any code violation or cure any hazardous condition. It includes any other process necessary for abatement. In addition, through the notice and hearing procedures of Chapters 1.30 and 1.40 CVMC, the responsible party can be made subject to an order of abatement through which the corrective work will be undertaken by the City and the cost will be imposed as a lien against the property if the responsible party fails to respond. C. Each day a violation exists on real property is a continuing and additional violation, and all remedies, penalties and assessments are cumulative. D. In addition to a notice of violation, a cease and desist order can be issued pursuant to CVMC 1.41.070 to one or more responsible parties or other persons who perform work in violation of a permit or without a required permit. Violation of the cease and desist order is a separate misdemeanor. A responsible party or any person on scene actively conducting the violation under the direction of a responsible party is subject to arrest without a warrant for continuing work in violation of the cease and desist order, as well as for the actions constituting the violation of this code. A responsible party can be required to obtain necessary permits, restore or revegetate the property, or both, and correct or mitigate the consequences of the violation. Administrative citations can also be issued assessing administrative fines for both the creation of and the continuance of the violation. E. If the responsible party fails or refuses to correct the violation, proceedings may be undertaken to abate any existing or resulting nuisance, pursuant to Chapter 1.30 CVMC. Abatement orders authorize a Director to enter upon property and correct the violation or condition, or the removal of encroachment upon public property. Enforcement costs may be imposed against the responsible party and noncomplying property. F. During the pendency of the violation and the enforcement process, a notice of violation may be recorded against the property pursuant to CVMC 1.41.040 describing the particulars of the violation to insure that the property is properly abated prior to or upon transfer. The recorded notice of violation will be released upon issuance of a notice of compliance which shall be recorded by the Director in due course within 15 days after request for such release by the property owner. G. During the inspection and enforcement process, cost recovery can be imposed for the cost of reinspection (CVMC 1.41.060) and the costs of City services to abate (Chapter 1.30 Item 7.1 - Revised 5/5/2026 Page 141 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda 5 CVMC and CVMC 1.41.140). These costs may be recorded as a lien against the property following the procedures under this chapter or the waiver thereof by the responsible party. H. Various steps or procedures under this chapter may require notice and a hearing pursuant to Chapter 1.40 CVMC. When appropriate, notice and hearing requirements for separate administrative actions may be consolidated. 1.41.030 Notice of violation. A. A code enforcement officer is authorized to serve a notice of violation upon a responsible party for any violation of the Municipal Code. The notice of violation will describe the violation, the dates and location of the violation, the applicable code section(s), the corrective action required and a date for compliance reinspection. The responsible party will be advised that a reinspection fee (CVMC Section 1.41.060) will be imposed for a second and all subsequent reinspection if compliance is not voluntarily obtained, and that an administrative citation , civil penalty, or any other remedy may also be issued along with civil penalties pursuant to CVMC 1.41.100 and 1.41.110 imposed until the property is brought into compliance. The responsible party will be allowed a reasonable amount of time to correct a violation. Typical compliance times may range between a minimum of 10 and calendar days to correct minor violations and no less than 30 calendar days dependent upon the nature of the for major violation(s). Immediate corrections may be required for violations that are easily corrected or present an imminent risk to health and safety. A code enforcement officer may extend the compliance time frame for a reasonable period beyond those limits if appropriatecircumstances dictate. The notice of violation will inform the responsible party of the potential costs and consequences that may ensue under this chapterbe imposed if voluntary compliance is not obtained within the time prescribed. If the violation is corrected in accordance with the terms of the notice of violation, no costs or charges will be imposed. B. Service of a notice of violation is effective upon delivery or mailing pursuant to this section. Failure or refusal to sign does not invalidate the notice of violation and subsequent proceedings. C. The property will be reinspected once for compliance. If the responsible party refuses to allow inspection, after a reasonable demand, the code enforcement officer may obtain an inspection warrant pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure Section 1822.50. Failure of the responsible party to allow inspection or remedy the violation shall result in the issuance of an administrative citation, the charging of reinspection fees, and may result in a separate criminal violation for the failure to allow inspection (CCP Section 1822.57). D. If the violation also constitutes the performance of work without a required permit or in violation of an issued permit, the code enforcement officer may issue a cease and desist order pursuant to CVMC 1.41.070 to temporarily and immediately enjoin the work and to take any other action appropriate at that time. If the violation creates a hazardous condition which affects public safety or an imminent threat to life, safety, summary abatement may be initiated pursuant to this section. 1.41.040 Recordation of notice of violation. A. Whenever a violation on real property remains uncorrected after a notice of violation has been issued, a copy of the notice of violation may be recorded by the Director of Development Item 7.1 - Revised 5/5/2026 Page 142 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda 6 Services or designee in the real property records of San Diego County if the following prerequisites are met: 1. A violation has remained uncorrected on the property for at least 30 calendar days following service of the notice of violation; 2. The property owner, if not the responsible party, has been notified of the prospective recordation and been offered the opportunity to correct the violation; 3. The property owner and all of the responsible parties have been shall be notified that development permits shall be withheld during the time the property remains in violation pursuant to CVMC Section 1.41.050, except for those permits that are necessary to bring the property into compliance; and 4. The responsible party and the property owner have been noticed and offered a hearing pursuant to CVMC Chapter 1.40 CVMC to contest the proposed corrective action and the proposed recordation. B. The Director of Development Services or designee is authorized to record the notice of violation pursuant to this section upon issuance of the final order. C. Cancellation of Recordation. The Director of Development Services or designee shall issue to the property owner and other responsible parties a signed notice of compliance which states on its face that it cancels the notice of violation once all violations have been corrected and any administrative penalties, costs and fines involved in the enforcement process have been paid. The notice of compliance shall be recorded by the Director of Development Services or designee if the notice of violation was recorded. 1.41.050 Nonissuance of permits. After a notice of violation has been recorded against the property pursuant to CVMC Section 1.41.040, the City Manager Director of Development Services or designee shall withhold the issuance of any permits for development as allowed by law upon that property, save for those permits necessary to correct the violation(s). A party whose permits are to be withheld shall be noticed as part of the recordation process pursuant to CVMC Section 1.41.040 and offered a hearing pursuant to CVMC Chapter 1.40 CVMC in which to contest this decision. 1.41.060 Reinspection fees. A. Reinspection fees are authorized to recover City costs when excessive time and effort becomes necessaryare required to obtain code compliance. Reinspection fees are an appropriate method to recover costs that are disproportionately attributable to recalcitrant responsible parties. B. After a notice of violation, or an administrative citation, or any is issued, or another order is issued by the City by or under the authority of a Director which requires corrective action by a responsible party, that party will be notified that it will be liable for any reinspection fees necessary if the condition remains uncorrected. The first inspection following the issuance of the notice of violation, citation or order is considered part of the normal cost of enforcement and will not be charged if the condition is then promptly corrected. Otherwise, it will be included as part of the costs of enforcement. Item 7.1 - Revised 5/5/2026 Page 143 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda 7 C. Reinspection fees may be collected and enforced as part of the enforcement process or in combination with other administrative proceedings under this chapter, provided the responsible party was notified in advance of its liability for reinspection fees under subsection (B) of this section. Appeals, service of notice and hearing procedures are established in CVMC Chapter 1.40 CVMC. D. Reinspection fees will be charged on the basis of actual staff time utilized for the inspection(s), based upon the master fee schedule on file in the office of the City Clerk. 1.41.070 Cease and desist orders. A. TheA Director of Development Services or code enforcement officerdesignee is authorized to issue personally, or to serve in accordance with CVMC 1.40.030, a written cease and desist order upon any person violating a provision of the Municipal Code through which work is being performed without a permit, if required, or in violation of an issued permit. The cease and desist order may be served personally or in accordance with CVMC Section 1.04.030.Cease and desist orders are particularly appropriate for violations of land grading, watercourse and water and sewer regulations and related work which alters the condition of real property or through which environmental degradation or pollution will continue to occur if not stopped immediately. B. It is unlawful for any person to whom a cease and desist order has been personally issued or served to continue to perform work in violation of the terms of that order. C. It is unlawful for any responsible party to whom a cease and desist order has been served to continue to perform work or to allow or permit another to continue to perform work in violation of the terms of that order. D. Prosecution under subsection (B) or (C) of this section does not bar prosecution or administrative enforcement, or both, of the previous underlying violations for any or all days the violation had been in existence, or for the continuance of the underlying violation. E. Any The Director of Development Services or code enforcement officer in whose presence a violation of subsection (B) or (C) of this section occurs may arrest the violator without a warrant, and a police officer may accept custody of that arrestee for criminal enforcement processing. F. The Director may initiate other administrative enforcement and compliance methods in accordance with this chapter and CVMC Chapters 1.30 and 1.40 CVMC, as appropriate. 1.41.080 Reserved. 1.41.090 Reserved. 1.41.100 Administrative citations. A. The Council finds that there is a need for an alternative method of enforcement for minor violations of the Municipal Code and applicable state codes. The Council further finds that an appropriate method of enforcement for minor violations is an administrative citation program. Item 7.1 - Revised 5/5/2026 Page 144 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda 8 The procedure established in this section shall be in addition to criminal, civil or any other legal remedy established by law which may be pursued to address violations of the Municipal Code or applicable state code. B. An administrative citation imposing an administrative fine can be issued to a responsible party for violation of a regulatory provision of this code or state law., and the responsible party be required to pay an administrative fine. Administrative citations and penalties are particularly appropriate in cases of structural, building and zoning violations that do not create an immediate danger to health or safety if the responsible party has failed to correct the violation after the issuance of a notice of violation pursuant to CVMC 1.41.030. C. An administrative citation may be issued in lieu of a Notice of Violation or the initiation of a criminal action for the same violation. Administrative citations are not a prerequisite to any other remedy and need not be issued sequentially. However, in particularly egregious cases, criminal enforcement may be appropriate for continuing violations if the administrative citation is ignored by the responsible party. D. The amount of fine attached to an administrative citation fine that may be imposed for each separate violation of the same code section is as follows: 1. Administrative citation fines may be issued in the following amounts: Two hundred fifty dollars ($250), fiveOne hundred dollars ($500100.00), for a first violation; one thousand dollars ($1,000200.00), or one thousand five hundred dollars for a second violation within the 12 calendar months of the first violation; ($1,500.00). for each additional violation occurring after the second violation and within 12 months of any prior violation. 2 . In determining the amount of the fine to be imposed, the issuing officer should consider the following factors: a. Duration of the violation; b. Frequency or occurrence of the violation; c. Seriousness of the violation in relation to its threat or impact upon public health, welfare or safety; d. History of the violations; e. Activity taken by the responsible party to obstruct or interfere with correction of the problem; f. Good faith or bad faith efforts by the responsible party to comply; g. The impact of the violation on the surrounding propertiesy and community; h. The financial ability of the responsible party to have corrected the violation in a timely fashion. 3. Except, if a violation is determined or designated to be an infraction in the Municipal Code, then the penalties are as follows: a. A fine not exceeding one hundred dollars ($100) for a first violation. b. A fine not exceeding two hundred dollars ($200) for a second violation of the same ordinance within one year. Item 7.1 - Revised 5/5/2026 Page 145 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda 9 c. A fine not exceeding five hundred dollars ($500) for each additional violation of the same ordinance within one year. 4. Notwithstanding any other law, a violation of local building and safety codes determined or designated to be an infraction is punishable by the following: a. A fine not exceeding one hundred thirty dollars ($130) for a first violation. b. A fine not exceeding seven hundred dollars ($700) for a second violation of the same ordinance within one year. c. A fine not exceeding one thousand three hundred dollars ($1,300) for each additional violation of the same ordinance within one year of the first violation. 1. A fine not exceeding two thousand five hundred dollars ($2,500) for each additional violation of the same ordinance within two years of the first violation if the property is a commercial property that has an existing building at the time of the violation and the violation is due to failure by the owner to remove visible refuse or failure to prohibit unauthorized use of the property. 4. Issuance of an administrative citation and payment of the administrative fine does not excuse compliance and corrective action regarding the violations. Although continuing violations of the Municipal Code are separate offenses, the responsible party shall be allowed a reasonable time of not more than 10 30 calendar days in which to correct the violation before a second or subsequent administrative citation may be issued. 5.43. A responsible party may request administrative review of an administrative citation pursuant to CVMC Chapter 1.40 CVMC. E. The administrative citation shall contain the following information: 1. Date of the violation; 2. Address and location of violation; 3. Description of violation; 4. Applicable codes and statutory sections violated; 5. Corrective action required; 6. An order to bring the violation into compliance; 7. Notice of the fines to be imposed; 8. A date, not less than 20 calendar days, by which payment of the fine must be made; 9. Location and acceptable methods for payment; 10. Notification that payment does not excuse correction of the violation; 11. Notice of right to request review pursuant to CVMC Chapter 1.40 CVMC. F. A party filing a timely request for review pursuant to CVMC Chapter 1.40 CVMC shall post a deposit with the Director of Development Services or designee. Enforcement of the administrative fine shall be stayed pending the decision of a hearing examiner if a hearing is requested. Procedures for review shall be in accordance with CVMC Chapter 1.40 CVMC. The deposit will be returned if the appeal is granted. A final order is not subject to judicial review after 20 days have elapsed from the date of its issuance, unless the party complies Item 7.1 - Revised 5/5/2026 Page 146 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda 10 with Government Code Section 53069.4. See CVMC 1.40.020(H). A final order may be enforced pursuant to CVMC 1.41.160. 1.41.110 Civil penalties. A. The Council finds that there is a need for alternative methods of enforcement of the Chula Vista Municipal Code and applicable state codes. The Council further finds that the assessment of civil penalties through an administrative hearing procedure for code violations is a necessary alternative method of code enforcement. The administrative assessment of civil penalties established in this section is in addition to any other administrative or judicial remedy established by law which may be pursued to address violations of the Municipal Code or applicable codes. B. Civil penalties may be assessed against a responsible party for continued violations of the Municipal Code or applicable state codes, whether of the same section or any combination, that reflect a continuing disregard for the requirements of such laws.

The action involves only updates and modifications to the CVMC, including creating additional standards for temporary storage containers, streamlining permitting of fueling facilities, and clarifying the process for administrative citations. Furthermore, the action of updating and modifying the CVMC with procedural and clerical changes will not result in an intensification of uses or a change in development potential within the City above what already is permitted under the existing land use and zoning policies of the CVMC that are being updated.

NOW THEREFORE the City Council of the City of Chula Vista does hereby find and ordain as follows: The City Council of the City of Chula Vista finds that the proposed amendments to the CVMC identified in this Ordinance No. qualifies for the “common sense” exemption under State CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3). The action involves only updates and modifications to the CVMC, including creating additional standards for temporary storage containers, streamlining permitting of fueling facilities, and clarifying the process for administrative citations. Furthermore, the action of updating and modifying the CVMC with procedural and clerical changes will not result in an intensification of uses or a change in development potential within the City above what already is permitted under the existing land use and zoning policies of the CVMC that are being updated. Based on an analysis of the nature and type of these procedural and clerical changes to the CVMC, there is a certainty that there is no possibility that the action may have a significant effect on the environment.

Chapter 1.41 ADMINISTRATIVE REMEDIES Sections: 1.41.010 Purpose and intent. 1.41.020 Reserved 1.41.030 Notice of violation. 1.41.040 Recordation of notice of violation. 1.41.050 Nonissuance of permits. 1.41.060 Reinspection fees. 1.41.070 Cease and desist orders. 1.41.080 Reserved. 1.41.090 Reserved. 1.41.100 Administrative citations. 1.41.110 Civil penalties. 1.41.120 Abatement action. Item 7.1 - Revised 5/5/2026 Page 177 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda 3 1.41.130 Reserved. 1.41.140 Cost recovery. 1.41.150 Confirmation of costs. 1.41.160 Enforcement. 1.41.170 Satisfaction of lien or obligation. 1.41.180 Abatement fund. 1.41.010 Purpose and intent. A. It is the purpose and intent of the City Council to establish administrative remedies for obtaining prompt compliance in the correction of both major and minor violations of the Chula Vista Municipal Code and state law. Conditions in violation of the Municipal Code or state law which affect conditions upon or uses of real property within the City of Chula Vista are hereby designated nuisances. B. Each day a violation exists on real property is a continuing and additional violation, and all remedies, penalties and assessments are cumulative. C. The remedies established in and through this Chapter may cross reference, consolidate or incorporate by reference, as applicable, enforcement methods established elsewhere in this code, in order to create a uniform process for prompt code compliance, administrative due process and effective enforcement. D. Various steps or procedures under this chapter may require notice and a hearing pursuant to CVMC Chapter 1.40. When appropriate, notice and hearing requirements for separate administrative actions may be consolidated. E. The City Manager, any Director and the City Attorney are each authorized to utilize and initiate the remedies established in this Chapter and CVMC Chapters 1.30 and 1.40. F. The remedies in CVMC Title 1 may be used as a supplement to criminal or judicial enforcement action, or both, or in lieu thereof. Selection of one method shall not preclude the use of any other method or combination of methods when appropriate. G. The terms “abatement,” “City Manager,” “code enforcement officer,” “Director,” “nuisance,” and “responsible party” are as defined in CVMC Section 1.04.010. 1.41.020 Reserved. 1.41.030 Notice of violation. A. A code enforcement officer is authorized to serve a notice of violation upon a responsible party for any violation of the Municipal Code. The notice of violation will describe the violation, the dates and location of the violation, the applicable code section(s), the corrective action required and a date for compliance reinspection. The responsible party will be advised that a reinspection fee (CVMC Section 1.41.060) will be imposed for a second and all subsequent reinspection if compliance is not voluntarily obtained, and that an administrative citation, civil penalty, or any other remedy may also be imposed until the property is brought into compliance. The responsible party will be allowed a reasonable amount of time to correct a Item 7.1 - Revised 5/5/2026 Page 178 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda 4 violation. Typical compliance times may range between 10 and 30 calendar days dependent upon the nature of the violation(s). Immediate corrections may be required for violations that are easily corrected or present an imminent risk to health and safety. A code enforcement officer may extend the compliance time frame if appropriate. The notice of violation will inform the responsible party of the potential costs and consequences that may be imposed if voluntary compliance is not obtained within the time prescribed. If the violation is corrected in accordance with the terms of the notice of violation, no costs or charges will be imposed. B. Service of a notice of violation is effective upon delivery or mailing pursuant to this section. Failure or refusal to sign does not invalidate the notice of violation and subsequent proceedings. C. The property will be reinspected for compliance. If the responsible party refuses to allow inspection, after a reasonable demand, the code enforcement officer may obtain an inspection warrant pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure Section 1822.50. Failure of the responsible party to allow inspection may result in a separate criminal violation for the failure to allow inspection (CCP Section 1822.57). 1.41.040 Recordation of notice of violation. A. Whenever a violation on real property remains uncorrected after a notice of violation has been issued, a copy of the notice of violation may be recorded by the Director of Development Services or designee in the real property records of San Diego County if the following prerequisites are met: 1. A violation has remained uncorrected on the property for at least 30 calendar days following service of the notice of violation; 2. The property owner, if not the responsible party, has been notified of the prospective recordation and been offered the opportunity to correct the violation; 3. The property owner and all of the responsible parties have been notified that development permits shall be withheld during the time the property remains in violation pursuant to CVMC Section 1.41.050, except for those permits that are necessary to bring the property into compliance; and 4. The responsible party and the property owner have been noticed and offered a hearing pursuant to CVMC Chapter 1.40 to contest the proposed corrective action and the proposed recordation. B. The Director of Development Services or designee is authorized to record the notice of violation pursuant to this section upon issuance of the final order. C. Cancellation of Recordation. The Director of Development Services or designee shall issue to the property owner and other responsible parties a signed notice of compliance which states on its face that it cancels the notice of violation once all violations have been corrected and any administrative penalties, costs and fines involved in the enforcement process have been paid. The notice of compliance shall be recorded by the Director of Development Services or designee if the notice of violation was recorded. Item 7.1 - Revised 5/5/2026 Page 179 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda 5 1.41.050 Nonissuance of permits. After a notice of violation has been recorded against the property pursuant to CVMC Section 1.41.040, the Director of Development Services or designee shall withhold the issuance of any permits for development as allowed by law upon that property, save for those permits necessary to correct the violation(s). A party whose permits are to be withheld shall be noticed as part of the recordation process pursuant to CVMC Section 1.41.040 and offered a hearing pursuant to CVMC Chapter 1.40 in which to contest this decision. 1.41.060 Reinspection fees. A. Reinspection fees are authorized to recover City costs when excessive time and effort are required to obtain code compliance. Reinspection fees are an appropriate method to recover costs that are disproportionately attributable to recalcitrant responsible parties. B. After a notice of violation, administrative citation, or any other order is issued by the City which requires corrective action by a responsible party, that party will be notified that it will be liable for any reinspection fees necessary if the condition remains uncorrected. The first inspection following the issuance of the notice of violation, citation or order is considered part of the normal cost of enforcement and will not be charged if the condition is promptly corrected. Otherwise, it will be included as part of the costs of enforcement. C. Reinspection fees may be collected and enforced as part of the enforcement process or in combination with other administrative proceedings under this chapter, provided the responsible party was notified in advance of its liability for reinspection fees under subsection (B) of this section. Appeals, service of notice and hearing procedures are established in CVMC Chapter 1.40. D. Reinspection fees will be charged on the basis of actual staff time utilized for the inspection(s), based upon the master fee schedule. 1.41.070 Cease and desist orders. A. The Director of Development Services or designee is authorized to issue a written cease and desist order upon any person violating a provision of the Municipal Code through which work is being performed without a permit, if required, or in violation of an issued permit. The cease and desist order may be served personally or in accordance with CVMC Section 1.04.030. B. It is unlawful for any person to whom a cease and desist order has been served to continue to perform work in violation of the terms of that order. C. It is unlawful for any responsible party to whom a cease and desist order has been served to continue to perform work or to allow another to continue to perform work in violation of the terms of that order. D. Prosecution under subsection (B) or (C) of this section does not bar prosecution or administrative enforcement, or both, of the previous underlying violations for any or all days the violation had been in existence, or for the continuance of the underlying violation. E. The Director of Development Services or code enforcement officer in whose presence a violation of subsection (B) or (C) of this section occurs may arrest the violator without a Item 7.1 - Revised 5/5/2026 Page 180 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda 6 warrant, and a police officer may accept custody of that arrestee for criminal enforcement processing. F. The Director may initiate other administrative enforcement and compliance methods in accordance with this chapter and CVMC Chapters 1.30 and 1.40, as appropriate. 1.41.080 Reserved. 1.41.090 Reserved. 1.41.100 Administrative citations. A. The Council finds that there is a need for an alternative method of enforcement for minor violations of the Municipal Code and applicable state codes. The Council further finds that an appropriate method of enforcement for minor violations is an administrative citation program. The procedure established in this section shall be in addition to criminal, civil or any other legal remedy established by law which may be pursued to address violations of the Municipal Code or applicable state code. B. An administrative citation imposing an administrative fine can be issued to a responsible party for violation of a regulatory provision of this code or state law. C. An administrative citation may be issued in lieu of a Notice of Violation or the initiation of a criminal action for the same violation. Administrative citations are not a prerequisite to any other remedy and need not be issued sequentially. D. The amount of fine attached to an administrative citation may be imposed for each separate violation of the same code section as follows: 1. Administrative citation fines may be issued in the following amounts: Two hundred fifty dollars ($250), five hundred dollars ($500), one thousand dollars ($1,000), or one thousand five hundred dollars ($1,500). 2 . In determining the amount of the fine to be imposed, the issuing officer should consider the following factors: a. Duration of the violation; b. Frequency or occurrence of the violation; c. Seriousness of the violation in relation to its threat or impact upon public health, welfare or safety; d. History of the violations; e. Activity taken by the responsible party to obstruct or interfere with correction of the problem; f. Good faith or bad faith efforts by the responsible party to comply; g. The impact of the violation on the surrounding properties and community; h. The financial ability of the responsible party to correct the violation in a timely fashion. Item 7.1 - Revised 5/5/2026 Page 181 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda 7 3. Except, if a violation is determined or designated to be an infraction in the Municipal Code, then the penalties are as follows: a. A fine not exceeding one hundred dollars ($100) for a first violation. b. A fine not exceeding two hundred dollars ($200) for a second violation of the same ordinance within one year. c. A fine not exceeding five hundred dollars ($500) for each additional violation of the same ordinance within one year. 4.

A fine not exceeding one thousand three hundred dollars ($1,300) for each additional violation of the same ordinance within one year of the first violation. 1. A fine not exceeding two thousand five hundred dollars ($2,500) for each additional violation of the same ordinance within two years of the first violation if the property is a commercial property that has an existing building at the time of the violation and the violation is due to failure by the owner to remove visible refuse or failure to prohibit unauthorized use of the property. 4. Issuance of an administrative citation and payment of the administrative fine does not excuse compliance and corrective action regarding the violations. Although continuing violations of the Municipal Code are separate offenses, the responsible party shall be allowed a reasonable time of not more than 10 calendar days in which to correct the violation before a second or subsequent administrative citation may be issued. 5. A responsible party may request administrative review of an administrative citation pursuant to CVMC Chapter 1.40. E. The administrative citation shall contain the following information: 1.

Enforcement of the administrative fine shall be stayed pending the decision of a hearing examiner if a hearing is requested. Procedures for review shall be in accordance with CVMC Chapter 1.40. The deposit will be returned if the appeal is granted. 1.41.110 Civil penalties. A. The Council finds that there is a need for alternative methods of enforcement of the Chula Vista Municipal Code and applicable state codes. The Council further finds that the assessment of civil penalties through an administrative hearing procedure for code violations is a necessary alternative method of code enforcement. The administrative assessment of civil penalties established in this section is in addition to any other administrative or judicial remedy established by law which may be pursued to address violations of the Municipal Code or applicable codes. B. Civil penalties may be assessed against a responsible party for continued violations of the Municipal Code or applicable state codes, whether of the same section or any combination, that reflect a continuing disregard for the requirements of such laws. The Director of Development Services or designee may issue a notice and order to the responsible party assessing a civil penalty pursuant to this section. The civil penalty may be enforced against the responsible party as a lien pursuant to CVMC Section 1.41.140. C. Except for violations of land grading ordinances contained in CVMCChapter 15.04 and violations of commercial cannabis provisions contained in CVMC Chapter 5.19, civil penalties may be assessed at a rate not to exceed $2,500 per violation per day. D. The civil penalty for violations of land grading permits or land grading work done without the issuance of a permit shall be based on an estimate by the Director of Development Services or designee of grading work performed. The rate of civil penalties shall be as follows: 1. Less than 250 cubic yards, but not meeting the requirements for an exemption from grading permit under CVMC Section 15.04.150: $1,000 per violation; 2. Two hundred fifty-one (251) to 500 cubic yards: $5,000 per violation; 3. Five hundred one (501) to 1,000 cubic yards: $10,000 per violation; 4. Over 1,001 cubic yards: $25,000 per violation; 5. In the event any individual, firm, company, developer or property owner causes a second violation of the land grading permit ordinance, either on the same property or different property and whether or not part of the same development, the rate of civil penalties shall be doubled.

Solution –> Remove unnecessary procedural restrictions while maintaining due process. Increase potential penalties as an added incentive to correct violations. Page 217 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda Topic: Cannabis Permits Issue –> Clarification is needed in situations where cannabis businesses let their licenses lapse. Solution –> Add language stating cannabis licenses are no longer valid if the City does not receive a renewal application by the previous year’s license expiration date. Procedural Page 218 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda Topic: Public Noticing and Appeal Processing Timeframes Issue –> Discrepancies exist within the timeframes for public noticing and appeal applications; conflict between business and calendar days. Solution –> Establish timelines for three different scenarios: 1) Development projects requiring a public notice and ordinance adoption; 2) Development projects requiring a public notice and resolution adoption; 3) Appeal period timeframes for all project types. Procedural Page 219 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda Topic: Development Impact Fee Project Exemptions Issue –> State Law requires all development contributing to the need for public facilities, must bear its proportionate share of cost. Exempting such projects shifts their impact costs to unrelated private developments, violating principles of nexus and proportionality. Fee allocations must reflect actual, measurable impacts from the exempted development. Solution –> Revise the applicable CVMC sections for better consistency with Government Code Section 66001. State Law Compliance Page 220 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda Topic:Hydrogen Fueling Facilities Issue –> Government Code Section 65850.7 requires jurisdictions larger than 250,000 people to allow hydrogen fueling facilities in commercial and industrial zones, and, have a permitting process in place for them. Solution –> Hydrogen fueling stations become a permitted use in commercial and industrial zones. State Law Compliance Page 221 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda Topic: Temporary and Permanent Storage Containers Land Use & Development Issue –> Additional language is needed regarding the placement/location of said containers, and, the permitting process for them if they are to be located within the street. Solution –> Clarify a container shall be placed first on -site either in a garage or driveway, and then in the street. Specify a temporary encroachment permitting process is required for any containers temporarily stored in the street. Page 222 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda Topic: Recreational Vehicle Storage and Habitation Land Use & Development Issue –> City Code Enforcement Officers routinely deal with complaints regarding vehicles being used as dwellings for extended time periods. Additionally, two separate CVMC sections speak to this topic and need to be consolidated into one resource. Solution –> Consolidate two sections within this Title to create one area for recreational vehicle storage and habitation standards, and, establish timeframes for vehicle habitation to discourage extended or permanent residency.

Recommended Action Hear the presentation by the Measure A Citizens’ Oversight Committee Chair and accept the fiscal year 2024- 25 Annual Report. SUMMARY Presentation of the Measure A Citizens’ Oversight Committee Annual Report covering audited revenues and expenditures for the period of July 1, 2024, through June 30, 2025. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The proposed activity has been reviewed for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and it has been 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. BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION The Measure A Citizens’ Oversight Committee recommends that City Council hear and accept its Fiscal Year 2024-25 Annual Report, as presented by Committee Chair Stucky. Page 227 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda P a g e | 2 DISCUSSION At its regular meeting on April 9, 2026, the Measure A Citizens’ Oversight Committee reviewed and accepted the independent auditor’s report for fiscal year 2024-25, as presented in the Annual Report of the Measure A Citizens Oversight Committee Fiscal Year 2024-25. The independent audit concluded that the City’s use of Measure A funds complied with the requirements set forth in Ordinance No. 3415 and the Public Safety Expenditure Plan for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025. The independent audit further concluded that “the City complied, in all material respects, with the compliance requirements that could have a direct and material effect on the 2018 Measure A Sales Tax Fund for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025.” 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. (Gov. 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 as a result of this action. ONGOING FISCAL IMPACT There is no ongoing fiscal impact as a result of this action. ATTACHMENTS 1.

Carnegie Dr. Suite 100, San Bernardino, CA 92408 CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS 1- INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council City of Chula Vista, California Report on Compliance Opinion on the 2018 Measure A Sales Tax Fund We have audited the City of Chula Vista’s (the City) 2018 Measure A Sales Tax Fund of the City of Chula Vista, California compliance with the types of compliance requirements described in Ordinance No. 3415 the Ordinance) and the Public Safety Expenditure Plan (the Spending Plan) for the year ending June 30, 2025. In our opinion, the City complied, in all material respects, with the compliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on the 2018 Measure A Sales Tax Fund for the year ended June 30, 2025. Basis for Opinion on the 2018 Measure A Sales Tax Fund We conducted our audit of compliance in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAS); the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States (Government Auditing Standards); and the requirements described in the Ordinance and the Spending Plan. Our responsibilities under those standards and the Uniform Guidance are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of Compliance section of our report. We are required to be independent of the City and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion on compliance for the Ordinance and the Spending Plan. Our audit does not provide a legal determination of the City’s compliance with the compliance requirements referred to above. Responsibilities of Management for Compliance Management is responsible for compliance with the requirements referred to above and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of effective internal control over compliance with the requirements of laws, statutes, regulations, rules and provisions of contracts or grant agreements applicable to the Ordinance and the Spending Plan. Other Matter The schedules present only the Measure A Sales Tax Fund and do not purport to, and do not present fairly the financial position of the City of Chula Vista, California, as of June 30, 2025, the changes in its financial position, or where applicable, its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter. Page 238 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda 2- Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of Compliance Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether material noncompliance with the compliance requirements referred to above occurred, whether due to fraud or error, and express an opinion on the City’s compliance based on our audit. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with GAAS, Government Auditing Standards, the Ordinance, and the Spending Plan will always detect material noncompliance when it exists. The risk of not detecting material noncompliance resulting from fraud is higher than for that resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Noncompliance with the compliance requirements referred to above is considered material, if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, it would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user of the report on compliance about the City’s compliance with the requirements of the Ordinance and the Spending Plan as a whole. In performing an audit in accordance with GAAS, Government Auditing Standards, and the Ordinance and the Spending Plan, we: Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. Identify and assess the risks of material noncompliance whether due to fraud or error and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the City's compliance with the compliance requirements referred to above and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. Obtain an understanding of the City’s internal control over compliance relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances and to test and report on internal control over compliance in accordance with the Ordinance and the Spending Plan, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City’s internal control over compliance. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed. We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and any significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in internal control over compliance that we identified during the audit. Report on Internal Control Over Compliance A deficiency in internal control over compliance exists when the design or operation of a control over compliance does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement on a timely basis. A material weakness in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance, such that there is a reasonable possibility that material noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement will not be prevented, or detected and corrected, on a timely basis. A significant deficiency in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance with a type of compliance requirement that is less severe than a material weakness in internal control over compliance, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance. Page 239 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda 3- Our consideration of internal control over compliance was for the limited purpose described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of Compliance section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control over compliance that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in internal control over compliance. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control over compliance that we consider to be material weaknesses as defined above. However, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in internal control over compliance may exist that were not identified. Our audit was not designed for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of internal control over compliance. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed. The purpose of this report on internal control over compliance is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over compliance and the results of that testing based on the requirements described in the Ordinance and the Spending Plan. Accordingly, this report is not suitable for any other purpose.

DISCUSSION The Millenia Library Building located at 1775 Millenia Avenue is a 168,000 square foot Class “A” office building, which will house the 60,000 square foot City library, San Diego State University School of Nursing and Global Campus, Sweetwater Union High School District Launch Virtual Academy, and the Chula Vista Entertainment Complex, LLC. On April 14, 2026, the City Council approved the lease agreement with the Board of Trustees of the California State University on behalf of San Diego State University for a portion of the Lower Level. The remainder of the Lower Level will be occupied by Sweetwater Union High School District (“SUHSD”) who will occupy 8,687 square feet for its Launch Virtual Academy (“LVA”) (the “SUHSD Premises”). LVA was conceptualized in 2016 with the goal of providing a unique 21st century educational experience centered on continuous improvement. LVA is a flexible, engaging, and equitable online public school experience serving students in grades 7 through 12 that reside in San Diego County. The Academy utilizes various elements of proven educational models such as Online Collaborative Learning, Project-Problem Based Learning, Multiple Intelligence Learning Theory, Connectivism, and others and has been serving its students since 2020. The Academy provides a safe, flexible, accessible and equitable online learning community that fosters meaningful relationships and collaboration among students, families and teachers through a purposeful intent to ignite curiosity, develop self-directed innovative thinkers and create responsible multiverse citizens. LVA expands the availability of quality secondary education in the region and youth development. Key Terms of the Lease Agreement 1.

SUHSD staff members and students will have a non-exclusive right to use the parking areas serving the site at no additional cost. Construction of tenant improvements will be performed by Swinerton Builders, the City’s general contractor performing the improvements at the Millenia Library Building, with an estimated project cost of $4,229,860. DECISION-MAKER CONFLICT 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. CURRENT-YEAR FISCAL IMPACT Approval of this item will authorize a fifteen (15) year lease agreement with monthly rental revenue of $10.00 for the first 5 years of the lease, increasing to $5,000 per month for years 6 through 10 and then increasing to market rates for years 11 through 15 (subject to future negotiation). The initial term is anticipated to commence in July of 2026, upon completion of tenant improvements. Throughout the term of the lease, SUHSD shall be responsible for certain insurance costs, janitorial and cleaning services, and utilities serving the SUHSD premises.

As used herein, the term “Indemnified Party” shall mean a Person benefitted by the provisions of Section 10.1 or Section 10.2, respectively, and the term “Indemnifying Party” shall mean Landlord or Tenant, as applicable, in connection with their respective obligations under Section 10.1 or Section 10.2 above. (a) An Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of the existence of any matters that an Indemnified Party believes in good faith constitute matters subject to indemnification, reimbursement, hold harmless or defense for the benefit of such Indemnified Party under this Lease (each, an “Indemnified Claim”) promptly after such Indemnified Party becomes aware of the existence of such Indemnified Claim. (b) An Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to defend any Indemnified Claim through counsel of the Indemnifying Party’s choice (the “Litigation Counsel”), which counsel shall be subject to the Indemnified Party’s prior written approval in its reasonable discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) if Indemnifying Party shall fail to promptly take all reasonable and appropriate action to defend any Indemnified Claim, then Indemnified Party shall, within a reasonable time following notice from Indemnified Party to Indemnifying Party alleging such failure, have the right promptly to retain counsel of Indemnified Party’s choice to carry out such defense, at Indemnifying Party’s cost and expense, (ii) in all cases Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any Indemnified Claim, and (iii) Indemnifying Party shall at all times during such defense consult with Indemnified Party and keep Indemnified Party fully informed of all material matters, and allow Indemnified Party to provide input on any strategic litigation decisions and/or positions. Indemnifying Party shall determine, with Indemnified Party’s reasonable consent, whether to settle, compromise, or appeal any judgment of any Indemnified Claim. (c) Without limiting anything else in this Article 10, under no circumstances shall an Indemnified Party be required to disclose to the Indemnifying Party any information or materials in connection with an Indemnified Claim to the extent that the Indemnified Party is precluded from disclosing the same due to binding confidentiality restrictions, or such information Page 261 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda 13 or materials are protected by attorney client privilege, in all events subject to any disclosure requirements imposed on the Indemnified Party under applicable Laws.

(e) Subject to the terms of this Article 10, the parties shall cooperate in defending against any Indemnification Claim. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Indemnifying Party shall cooperate fully with the Indemnified Party and the Litigation Counsel in the defense of any Indemnified Claim, including by making documents and/or personnel available to the extent required or deemed reasonably necessary by the Litigation Counsel or by the Indemnified Party. (f) All demands made by an Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party for payment and/or reimbursement of Claims under any indemnity in favor of any Indemnified Party hereunder shall be in writing, shall include reasonably requested backup information, and shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party within sixty (60) days after receipt of such written demand, or as otherwise agreed to by the parties. 10.4 Survival. The parties respective obligations under this Article 10 shall survive the expiration of the Term and any earlier termination of this Lease. ARTICLE 11 INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS 11.1 General. During the Term, the Landlord and Tenant, shall each, at their respective sole cost and expense, keep in force and maintain the respective insurance policies (including coverage amounts) set forth on Schedule 11, in full accordance with the terms and conditions of Schedule 11. The minimum limits of a party’s insurance coverage shall not limit the liability of such party under this Lease. All insurance required hereunder shall be placed with reputable companies which are licensed to do business in the State of California if such policies are not self- insured. Each party shall deliver proof of insurance (and additional insured status) to the other party prior to the Commencement Date and as soon as reasonably possible after reasonable request. 11.2 Waiver of Subrogation. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Landlord and Tenant each hereby waives any right of recovery against the other due to loss of or damage to the property of either Landlord or Tenant to the extent such loss of or damage to property arises out of the acts of God or any other perils whether or not such perils have been insured, self-insured or non-insured. Landlord and Tenant shall cause each of their respective insurance policies carried hereunder to contain, or be endorsed with, a provision by which the insurer shall waive its right of subrogation against the other party hereto in accordance with the provisions of this Article 11. ARTICLE 12 CASUALTY Page 262 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda 14 12.1 Termination. If the Premises are damaged by a fire or other casualty, Tenant shall give Landlord immediate notice thereof, and within sixty (60) days after the date Landlord has actual knowledge of such damage or destruction, Landlord shall notify Tenant of the reasonably estimated time required to completely restore the Premises. Landlord may elect to terminate this Lease due to a fire or other casualty if: (a) the damage was not covered by Landlord’s insurance policies or any self-insurance available to Landlord and (b) Landlord is able to reasonably demonstrate that it will not be able to secure sufficient funds to complete the restoration work prior to the end of the Term,. Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease with written notice to Landlord if the casualty materially impacts the Premises or Tenant’s ability to occupy or use the Premises (including any casualty to the Common Areas that impacts Tenant’s ability to use the Premises), and it is reasonably expected that the restoration work required to restore Tenant’s ability to fully use the Premises will not be substantially completed within twelve (12) months after the date of the casualty. 12.2 Restoration and Abatement. If neither Landlord or Tenant elect to terminate this Lease, then Landlord shall diligently and with commercially reasonable promptness repair the Premises to substantially the same condition existing as of the Commencement Date. Landlord shall not be required to repair or replace any damage or loss to any Alterations or any personal property of Tenant, or if any damage or loss is caused by Tenant’s act or omission. Any insurance which may be carried by Landlord or Tenant against loss or damage to the Building or Premises shall be for the sole benefit of the party carrying such insurance and under its sole control. 12.3 Waiver of Statutory Provisions. The provisions of this Lease, including this Article 12, constitute an express agreement between Landlord and Tenant with respect to any Casualty to all or any part of the Premises, and any statute or regulation, including, without limitation, Sections 1932(2) and 1933(4) of the California Civil Code, with respect to any rights or obligations concerning damage or destruction in the absence of an express agreement between the parties, and any other statute or regulation, now or hereafter in effect, shall have no application to this Lease or any damage or destruction to all or any part of the Premises. ARTICLE 13 CONDEMNATION If the Premises, Building, Project or any portion thereof are subject to a Taking, this Lease shall terminate as to the part so taken as of the date the condemning authority takes title or possession, whichever first occurs. If any Taking has a material adverse impact on Tenant’s ability to use the Premises for the Permitted Use then Tenant may, at Tenant’s option, terminate this Lease as of the date the condemning authority takes such possession with written notice to Landlord. Any award relating to a Taking shall be the sole property of Landlord, whether such award shall be made as compensation for diminution in value of the leasehold or for the taking of the fee, or as severance damages; provided, however, that Tenant shall be entitled to any award for loss of or damage to Tenant’s trade fixtures and removable personal property. In the event that this Lease is not terminated by reason of such Taking, Landlord shall repair any damage to the Premises caused by such Taking. Tenant hereby waives any and all rights it might otherwise have pursuant to Section 1265.130 of The California Code of Civil Procedure. Page 263 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda 15 ARTICLE 14 TAXES Landlord is a municipal corporation and the Premises and Landlord’s interest is exempt from ad valorem taxation. Tenant shall pay before delinquency all taxes, assessments, license fees, and other charges, if any, that are levied and assessed against Tenant’s trade fixtures, furnishings, equipment, and personal property in the Premises. ARTICLE 15 COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS/HAZARDOUS MATERIALS. 15.1 Compliance. Tenant, at Tenant's expense, shall comply with and cause all of Tenant's agents to comply with all applicable laws, ordinances, rules and regulations of governmental authorities applicable to the Premises or the use or occupancy thereof, including, without limitation, the law commonly known as the Americans With Disabilities Act and California Code of Regulations Title 8, Sections 3281 through 3299 (the “ADA”), but only to the extent applicable to Tenant’s specific and unique use of the Premises and any Alterations made by Tenant, and opposed to general uses. The foregoing shall not be construed as requiring that Tenant make any improvements or modifications to the Premises (or any portion thereof) in order to cause it to be in compliance with Laws, and without limiting the Landlord’s obligation to deliver the Premises to Tenant in full compliance with all applicable Laws, Landlord shall be responsible, at Landlord’s sole cost and expense, for ensuring that the Building, Common Areas and Project (including the Premises) are in compliance with all Laws and shall make such modifications and improvements as may be needed from time to time in connection therewith; provided to the extent that any specific and unique use by Tenant or any Alterations made by Tenant during the Term trigger the need under applicable Laws to make any such modifications and improvements, then the Tenant shall be responsible for such work at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. 15.2 Hazardous Materials. Tenant shall not cause or permit any Hazardous Materials to be brought upon, kept, used, discharged, deposited or leaked in or about the Premises or the Property by Tenant or a Tenant Party or by anyone in the Premises (other than Landlord or its agents, employees or contractors), except to the extent such Hazardous Materials are cleaning or office supplies and/or are used in connection with the Permitted Use, and in all events are kept and used in accordance with all applicable Laws. If Tenant breaches the obligations stated in the preceding sentence, or if the presence of any Hazardous Material on the Premises or the Property is caused by Tenant, then Tenant’s indemnification obligations under Sections 10.1 above shall apply, and the applicable Indemnified Claim shall include, without limitation, costs incurred in connection with any investigation of site conditions or any clean-up, remedial, removal or restoration work on or under the Premises. Such indemnity obligations shall survive the earlier termination or expiration of this Lease. ARTICLE 16 ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING Page 264 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda 16 Tenant shall not assign, sublet, or otherwise transfer, whether voluntarily or by operation of law, its interests under this Lease, without Landlord’s written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. ARTICLE 17 SIGNAGE AND PARKING 17.1 Signage. As part of the Landlord’s Work, Landlord shall install directory and suite identification signage for Tenant at Landlord’s sole cost and expense. Landlord shall also install monument wall signage and any other above-standard signage reasonably request by Tenant, based on signage designs and specifications proposed by Tenant, subject to Landlord’s prior written approval, and the costs thereof shall be included in reimbursable Landlord Work costs payable by Tenant pursuant to the Work Letter. Such Building monument sign location shall be mutually agreed upon by Landlord and Tenant. Without limiting the foregoing, Landlord hereby agrees that Tenant’s signage shall include, without limitation a suite identification sign at the Premises and signage on the Building directory, as well as directional signage in locations mutually agreed to by the parties acting reasonably and in good faith. Tenant shall be granted a space on the Building monument wall sign which location shall be mutually agreed upon by Landlord and Tenant. The cost and installation of Tenant’s monument sign shall be borne by Tenant. All signage must be submitted to Landlord for Landlord’s prior review and written approval. 17.2 Parking. Tenant shall be entitled to use, at no charge, fee, or expense to Tenant or any other Tenant Party or their guests or invitees, on a non-exclusive basis, any unreserved and unassigned parking spaces in those portions of the Parking Areas designated by Landlord for Tenant’s parking. Landlord specifically reserves the right, from time to time, to reasonably modify the Parking Areas with reasonable prior written notice to Tenant. Landlord may temporarily close- off or restrict access to the Parking Areas for purposes of construction, alteration or improvements or to accommodate or facilitate renovation, alteration, construction or other modification of the Project; provided sufficient alternative parking is made available to Tenant. ARTICLE 18 DEFAULT BY TENANT 18.1 Default. The occurrence of any of the following events on the part of the Tenant shall be a default by Tenant: (a) Failure to pay Rent when due and said Rent remains unpaid for more than five (5) Business Days after Tenant’s receipt of written notice of such failure; or (b) Failure in the performance of any of Tenant’s other covenants, agreements, or obligations hereunder, which failure continues for more than thirty (30) days after Tenant’s receipt of written notice thereof from Landlord; provided if such cure reasonably takes longer than thirty (30) days to complete, then Tenant shall not be in default hereunder if Tenant has commenced such cure within the 30-day period and at all times thereafter proceeds diligently to complete such cure; (c) (i) The making by Tenant of any general arrangement or general assignment for the benefit of creditors; (ii) Tenant becomes a "debtor" as defined in 11 U.S.C. § 101 or any Page 265 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda 17 successor statute thereto (unless, in the case of a petition filed against Tenant, the same is dismissed within sixty (60) days); (iii) the appointment of a trustee or receiver to take possession of substantially all of Tenant's assets located at the Premises or of Tenant's interest in this Lease, where possession is not restored to Tenant within thirty (30) days; or (iv) the attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of substantially all of Tenant's assets located at the Premises or of Tenant's interest in this Lease, where such seizure is not discharged within thirty (30) days, provided if any provision of this paragraph is contrary to any applicable law, such provision shall be of no force or effect; (d) The abandonment of the Premises by Tenant, as opposed to Tenant vacating the Premises or any portion thereof, where Tenant does not, within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice from Landlord, resume its use and occupancy of the Premises at a later time; provided Tenant maintains the insurance required hereunder and reasonably secures the Premises during such period when it is not being used by Tenant. 18.2 Landlord’s Remedies. So long as a Tenant default, beyond the notice and cure periods above, shall be continuing, Landlord shall have the remedies set forth below in this Section 18.2, and any other remedies available under applicable Laws. (a) Landlord shall have the immediate option to terminate Tenant's right to possession of the Premises by any lawful means, in which case this Lease shall terminate and Tenant shall immediately surrender possession of the Premises to Landlord. In the event that Landlord shall so elect to terminate this Lease, then Landlord may recover from Tenant: (i) The worth at the time of award of any unpaid rent which had been earned at the time of such termination; plus (ii) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent which would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus (iii) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided; plus (iv) Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom; and (v) At Landlord's election, such other amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted from time to time by applicable law. As used in Subparagraphs (i) – (iii) above of this Section, the “worth at the time of award” is computed by allowing interest at the maximum rate an individual is permitted by law to charge (b) Landlord shall have the remedy described in California Civil Code Section 1951.4 (lessor may continue lease in effect after lessee's breach and abandonment and Page 266 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda 18 recover rent as it becomes due, if lessee has the right to sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations). Accordingly, if Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease on account of any default by Tenant, Landlord may, from time to time, without terminating this Lease, enforce all of its rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover all Rent as it becomes due. (c) Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, cure such default on Tenant’s behalf (and may enter the Premises for such purposes). Any such actions undertaken by Landlord pursuant to this paragraph shall not be deemed a waiver of Landlord’s rights and remedies as a result of Tenant's default and shall not release Tenant from any of its obligations under this Lease. (d) Landlord may pursue any other legal remedy now or hereafter available to Landlord under applicable Laws or otherwise. (e) No reentry or taking possession of the Premises by Landlord pursuant to this Section shall be construed as an election to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention be given to Tenant or unless the termination thereof be decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction. 18.3 Recovery of Costs. Without limiting Landlord’s remedies under this Lease, applicable Laws, or otherwise, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as Additional Rent all third party costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with Landlord’s cure of any Tenant default not cured by Tenant. ARTICLE 19 DEFAULT BY LANDLORD Landlord shall be in default hereunder (a “Landlord Default”) if it fails to perform any of its covenants, agreements, or obligations hereunder, which failure continues for thirty (30) days after Landlord's receipt of written notice thereof from Tenant; provided if such cure reasonably takes longer than thirty (30) days to make, Landlord shall not be in default hereunder if it has commenced such cure within the thirty (30) day period and at all times thereafter proceeds diligently to complete such cure. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Landlord Default shall include the failure or refusal of Landlord to perform any obligation it has agreed to incur hereunder as soon as possible in the event of an "emergency," defined as an event which threatens the safety and/or well-being of the occupants of the Premises, or which prevents Tenant from continuing ongoing use. (in Tenant's sole reasonable opinion). ARTICLE 20 SUBORDINATION This Lease, at Landlord's option, shall be subordinate to the lien of any mortgage now or hereinafter affecting the Premises, and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements or extensions thereof (each, a “Mortgage”), irrespective of the time of recording such Mortgage, provided the mortgagee thereunder (the “Mortgagee”) is a recognized bank, savings and loan association, insurance company or other lending institution, and provided that such Mortgagees furnish a recognition and subordination agreement consistent with the terms of this Lease, in recordable form reasonably satisfactory to all parties thereto, that states Tenant's occupancy and rights pursuant to this Lease shall not be disturbed nor terminated as long as Tenant is not in default Page 267 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda 19 of its obligations hereunder beyond any cure periods. In the absence of a subordination, attornment and non-disturbance agreement and in the event that any holder of any Mortgage or anyone claiming from or through any such holder or any purchaser of holder's estate in any foreclosure sale shall enter into and lawfully become possessed of the Premises or shall otherwise succeed to the rights of Landlord under this Lease, either through foreclosure of any Mortgage or the acquisition of the estate of Landlord thereby mortgaged, Tenant agrees to attorn to such successor landlord and recognize successor landlord as its landlord under this Lease and to execute, upon request of such successor landlord, an attornment agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Tenant. ARTICLE 21 WAIVER The waiver by Landlord or Tenant of any term, covenant or condition herein contained shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any other term, covenant or condition, nor shall either party’s consent to any breach of any term, covenant or condition be deemed to constitute or imply its consent to any subsequent breach of the same or other term, covenant or condition herein contained. The receipt and acceptance by Landlord of delinquent rent or Additional Rent shall not constitute a waiver of any other default; it shall constitute only a waiver of timely payment for the particular rent payment involved. ARTICLE 22 NOTICES All notices, demands, or other communications that either party desires or is required or permitted to give or make to the other party under or pursuant to this Lease (collectively referred to as “notices”) shall be made or given in writing and shall either be (a) personally served, (b) sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, or (c) sent by a nationally recognized overnight delivery service or courier.

The address to which notices and demands shall be delivered or sent may be changed from time to time by notice served as herein provided by either party upon the other party. ARTICLE 23 QUIET POSSESSION Landlord hereby agrees that as long as Tenant keeps and performs the covenants in this Lease, Tenant shall at all times during the Term of this Lease peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Premises and Tenant’s rights hereunder, without suit, trouble or hindrance from Landlord or any person claiming under Landlord. ARTICLE 24 ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES Each party to this Lease will, from time to time as requested by the other party, on not less than twenty (20) days prior written notice, execute, acknowledge, and deliver to the other party a statement in writing certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or if there have been modifications that this Lease is in full force and effect as modified and stating the modifications).

That statement will also state whether, to the knowledge of the person signing the certificate, the other party to the Lease is in default beyond any applicable grace period provided in this Lease in the performance of any of its obligations under this Lease. If the other party is in default beyond any applicable grace period, the statement will specify each default of which the signer then has knowledge. It is intended that this statement may be relied on by others with whom the party requesting that certificate may be dealing. ARTICLE 25 LIMITATION ON LIABILITY Under no circumstances shall either party be liable to the other party for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages or for injury to the other party’s business or for any loss of income or profit therefrom, or loss of business, and each party waives any and all claims for any such damages.

Neither party shall make any press release regarding the Premises, this Lease, or any other subject matter hereof without the prior written approval of the other party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed; provided, however, Tenant may make press releases and public announcements relating to Tenant’s Permitted Use and programs, events, activities, and operations conducted from the Premises and Property so long as such press releases and public announcements do not disclose confidential lease terms or represent or imply City’s endorsement. 26.20 Force Majeure. In the event of Force Majeure, the obligations of the impacted party(ies) will be suspended to the extent caused by the Force Majeure, subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Force Majeure shall not in any way excuse, limit, or otherwise modify either party’s financial obligations under this Lease. For a party to avail itself of the benefit of Force Majeure, the Force Majeure event must directly cause a material delay in performance of an obligation or duty hereunder, or an inability to complete the performance of any such obligation or duty. The party claiming the benefit of Force Majeure must give detailed written notice to the other party within five (5) Business Days after obtaining actual knowledge of the Force Majeure event, and failure to provide such notice within such time period shall not void the benefit of Force Majeure but shall instead decrease the duration of the excused performance resulting from such Force Majeure event on a per diem basis for each day of delay in delivering such notice. 26.21 Tenant Financing. Tenant shall not, without the prior written consent of Landlord, which may be granted or withheld in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion, assign, mortgage, pledge, hypothecate, encumber, or permit any lien to attach to Tenant’s interest in and to (a) this Lease, or (b) the Premises. Additionally, Landlord shall have no obligation or duty whatsoever to execute any agreements, instruments, or other documents requested by Tenant or any lender of Tenant in connection with any Tenant financing, whether secured by Tenant’s personal property, fixtures, equipment, or otherwise; provided if Landlord, in its sole discretion, agrees to enter into any consents, lien releases, waivers, or similar agreements in connection with any Tenant financing, then Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for its actual and reasonable legal fees incurred in connection therewith, regardless of whether Landlord, Tenant, and Tenant’s lender are able to reach an agreement on a final form of such agreement or whether it is executed. Landlord hereby waives any landlord or similar liens to which it may have a right with respect to the merchandise, furniture, trade fixtures, equipment and other personal property of Tenant located on or about the Premises with respect to this Lease. Page 272 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda 24 26.22 Waiver of Redemption. Tenant waives any and all rights of redemption granted by or under any Laws if Tenant is evicted or dispossessed for any cause, or if Landlord obtains possession of the Premises by reason of the default by Tenant of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Lease beyond any applicable notice and cure period. 26.23 Tenant’s Information Technology Equipment. Without limiting the Tenant’s right to install Tenant’s Systems and Equipment, Tenant shall further have the right, at its cost and expense, to install its information technology equipment and systems in the Premises, and, to the extent needed for the proper operation and use thereof, in portions of the Common Areas as may be reasonably required, including cabling, WiFi, and such other equipment and systems as Tenant desires, and to operate such equipment and systems during the Term, provided Tenant obtains Landlords prior written approval as to the size, location, look of the information technology equipment, and installation method of any such equipment in the Common Areas, that Tenant wishes to install in the Common Areas. Subject to obtaining Tenant’s prior approval and opportunity to have a Tenant representative present, neither Landlord nor any other user of the Building or Project shall be allowed to access or use such equipment or systems, and without limiting Tenant’s other rights set forth in this Lease, Tenant shall have the right to install security to prevent any unauthorized use. If Tenant is required to share a common MDF/ID, the parties agree to use individual secured cabinets to ensure integrity of each respective party’s equipment. Tenant’s prior permission will not be necessary in the event of an emergency. 26.24 Right of First Offer. If at any time during Term vacant space becomes available for lease on lower level of Building, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Tenant written notice thereof (an “Available Space Notice”) promptly after Landlord determines such space is available for lease. Available Space Notice shall indicate specific space that is available for lease (the “Available Space”) and proposed rental upon which Landlord would be willing to lease space to Tenant. Upon Tenant’s receipt of Available Space Notice, parties shall negotiate in good faith for terms upon which Landlord would lease Available Space to Tenant, and Tenant would lease Available Space from Landlord; provided, in all events, such negotiation period shall not exceed a period of two (2) months from Tenant’s receipt of Available Space Notice. If parties are able to reach a mutual agreement as to lease of Available Space, they shall enter into an amendment to this Lease to add Available Space to Premises and to make such other modifications, solely with respect to Available Space, as are mutually agreed upon by parties. If parties are unable to reach a mutual agreement within such 2-month period, then Tenant’s rights under this paragraph with respect to Available Space shall be void and of no further force or effect. Nothing in this Section shall obligate Landlord to lease Available Space to Tenant except pursuant to a written amendment executed by both parties, and Landlord shall have no obligation to offer Available Space on terms other than those acceptable to Landlord in its sole discretion.

Landlord's Work. Landlord agrees to construct certain improvements to the Premises as provided herein (collectively the “Landlord's Work”). 1.1 Approval of Plans. Landlord and Tenant shall work together in good faith to develop mutually acceptable final plans and specifications, construction drawings, and detail sheets for the Landlord's Work which shall be submitted to the City of Chula Vista Building Department for a building permit (the “Final Plans”). Landlord shall not commence Landlord’s Work until the City of Chula Vista has obtained the required building permit(s) based on the Final Plans, with Tenant providing reasonable cooperation and information necessary for such permitting. 1.3 Substantial Completion. As used in this Lease, the term “Substantially Complete” shall mean the date Landlord notifies and represents to Tenant that (a) all of Landlord's Work has been completed (such that Tenant is able to commence full use of the Premises for the Permitted Use) in a good, workmanlike and lien-free manner, in accordance with good construction practices and in compliance with all applicable Laws and the Final Plans; (b) the Premises is broom-clean and free of all construction equipment and debris; and (c) that a certificate of occupancy or temporary certificate of occupancy (or equivalent) permitting Tenant to occupy the Premises for the Permitted Use has been issued. 1.4 Punch List. Tenant shall have thirty (30) days after the Commencement Date to prepare and deliver to Landlord a written list of any initial defects in construction (“Punch List Window”). After receipt of said punchlist, Landlord shall immediately commence and diligently prosecute to completion any work required to correct punchlist items and defects noted by Tenant. Failure to deliver the Punch List within the Punch List Window shall constitute Tenant’s acceptance of the Premises and Landlord’s Work. This paragraph shall in no way serve to limit Landlord's obligations under this Lease. 1.5 Construction Warranty. Landlord represents and warrants that the materials and equipment used in the Landlord's Work will be new and meet the requirements of the Final Plans, and that the Landlord's Work will be performed in material conformance with the requirements of the Final Plans, industry standards, and applicable Laws. Any of the Landlord's Work not materially conforming to these requirements shall be considered defective, and Landlord shall correct, at Landlord's sole expense, subject to the Punch List Window, any and all violations of the foregoing. 1.6 Change Orders. No modifications to the Final Plans shall be undertaken without first having been approved (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed) in writing by Tenant's Project Manager, initially to be Tenant’s Assistant Superintendent, Janea Quick, or her designee. Tenant shall not be entitled to ask for any changes to the Final Plans (“Changes”). Any request for Changes made by Tenant, which will be at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, must be made in writing given to the Landlord (a “Change Request”). Landlord shall diligently respond to a Change Request in writing (a “Change Response”). The Change Response Page 278 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda 2 shall set forth, without limitation and as appropriate (i) whether Landlord consents to the Change Request, and if Landlord does not consent, the detailed reason(s) for such decision (provided Landlord consent may not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), and (ii) Landlord's reasonable estimate of any likely delay in the Substantial Completion of the Landlord’s Work as a result of such Change Request. After receipt of a Change Response, provided the requested Changes were consented to, Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing of whether if it still desires to proceed with such requested Changes. If Tenant has decided to proceed with the requested Changes, the parties shall execute a written “Change Order” to memorialize the Changes. All Change Orders, including but not limited to any change in scope, must be approved in writing by Landlord to be effective. Upon the full execution and delivery of a Change Order, the Changes shall become a part of the Final Plans. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any delay in the Delivery Date to the extent that such delay is caused by or results from any Change Order. Landlord may, upon written notice to Tenant, require reasonable changes to the Final Plans relating to the scope, layout, design, specifications, or manner of construction of Landlord’s Work, and Landlord shall be solely responsible for any increased costs arising from such changes. 1.7 Tenant Improvement Costs; Reimbursement. All costs incurred by Landlord in connection with the design, permitting, construction, and project management of the Landlord’s Work (collectively, “TI Costs”) shall be reimbursed to Landlord by Tenant. Landlord shall provide Tenant with a good-faith budget estimate for Tenant’s approval prior to commencement and shall invoice Tenant no more frequently than monthly with reasonable supporting documentation. Tenant shall pay all invoiced amounts within thirty (30) days after receipt. Following completion of Landlord’s Work, Landlord shall provide a reconciliation of costs incurred with reasonable supporting documentation, and Tenant shall pay any excess of actual costs not yet paid within thirty (30) days after Tenant’s receipt of such reconciliation. 2. Tenant's Work. Landlord agrees that Tenant may, at Tenant's own cost and expense, and subject to Landlord’s prior written approval in each instance (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed), install in the Premises and, to the extent applicable, in the Common Areas, the Tenant’s Systems and Equipment and the Tenant Security Equipment (defined below). Such work shall be performed in compliance with industry standards and applicable Laws. As used in this Lease the term “Tenant Security Equipment” shall mean a security system to be installed at the Premises, which may include key card access and other equipment exclusively servicing the Premises, if Landlord’s access and security systems are unable to satisfy all reasonable legal requirements that Tenant is obligated to comply with under applicable Laws, or insufficient to comply with Tenant access and security standards and protocols for its facilities. Landlord shall reasonably cooperate with Tenant in connection with the design, installation, and operation of any Tenant’s Systems and Equipment and Tenant Security Equipment, provided that (a) such cooperation shall not require Landlord to incur out-of-pocket costs unless Tenant agrees in advance in writing to reimburse Landlord for such Tenant-specific out-of-pocket costs, supported by reasonable documentation, (b) Landlord may require Tenant to coordinate all work through Landlord’s designated representative and comply with scheduling and access requirements, and (c) Landlord may impose reasonable requirements to protect the Project and other occupants and to maintain safety and continuity of operations.

Therefore, pursuant to State Guidelines Section 15060(c)(3), no environmental review is required. Recommended Action City Council/Successor Agency to the Redevelopment Agency/Housing Authority hear the presentation, make necessary revisions to the proposed budgets, as appropriate, and adopt the resolution accepting the City Manager’s proposed budgets for each agency as their proposed budgets, respectively, and set a public hearing for final consideration and adoption of the budgets on May 19, 2026. SUMMARY In accordance with the City Charter, the City Manager has submitted the proposed budget for the upcoming fiscal year to the City Council at least 35 days prior to the beginning of fiscal year 2026-27. Staff recommends that the Council/Successor Agency/Housing Authority hear the presentation, provide comments, and propose changes (if any). If City Council is prepared to approve the budget, with or without modifications, as the City Council Proposed Budget, the City Council/Successor Agency/Housing Authority may adopt the resolution and set the time and place for a public hearing for final consideration and adoption of the budget. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The proposed activity has been reviewed for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), and it has been determined that the activity is not a “Project” as defined under Section 15378 of the State CEQA Guidelines because the proposed activity consists of a governmental fiscal/administrative Page 289 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda P a g e | 2 activity which does 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. COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT Community engagement efforts for this item included: public outreach through social media channels, which advertised City budget meetings and an online budget survey; citywide Communication Connection newsletters highlighting key financial information; City staff hosting community budget meetings; and an online budget survey. Public comments could also be submitted on the development of the budget via a Budget Comment Form on the City’s website, which is available on a continuous basis. To help inform budget priorities and better understand what services matter most to the community, an anonymous online public survey titled “Budget Development for Fiscal Year 2026-27” was conducted from February 16, 2026 to March 12, 2026 via the City’s Community Voices portal. The survey was designed to be accessible and user-friendly, allowing residents to provide feedback while also learning about the City’s budget framework. Three hundred and three individuals responded, generating 7,348 responses and 254 written comments, reflecting increased community engagement. Respondents were primarily City residents and represented a range of geographic areas and demographic groups. Results indicate that participants place a high priority on public safety, economic development and public parks. While participants viewed the survey as a positive tool for community involvement, the results also underscore the need to expand public education on the budget development process and enhance community engagement, a priority that will continue to guide the Finance Department’s work for the fiscal year 2027-28 budget development process. Three Community Budget Presentation meetings were held to discuss the fiscal year 2026-27 budget with the community: April 15th at Civic Library, April 22nd at Otay Ranch Library, and May 4th at Norman Park Senior Center. Staff presented an overview of the City’s annual budget development process; preliminary information on the fiscal year 2026-27 budgeted General Fund revenues and expenditures; highlights for other major funds; and information on the fiscal year 2026-27 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) budget. Community feedback received through these engagement efforts was considered in the development of the City Manager’s Proposed Budget for fiscal year 2026-27 and is reflected in the recommendation presented to the City Council. BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION On April 9, 2026, the Measure A Citizens’ Oversight Committee (COC) affirmed that the City Manager’s Proposed Budget for fiscal year 2026-27 for the Measure A Sales Tax Fund was in compliance with the City’s approved Intended Public Safety Expenditure Plan. On April 16, 2026, the Park and Recreation Commission was presented the City Manager’s Proposed Budget for fiscal year 2026-27 for the Parks and Recreation Department. As of the publication of this item, the Measure P Citizens’ Oversight Committee (COC) has been unable to convene a quorum to affirm that the City Manager’s Proposed Budget for fiscal year 2026–27 for the Measure P Sales Tax Fund is in compliance with the City’s approved Infrastructure, Facilities, and Equipment Page 290 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda P a g e | 3 Expenditure Plan. Staff is currently working to identify a meeting date to obtain COC approval prior to the Council’s adoption of the fiscal year 2026–27 budget. DISCUSSION In accordance with the City Charter, the City Manager has submitted the proposed budget for the upcoming fiscal year to the City Council at least 35 days prior to the beginning of fiscal year 2026-27. The City Manager has prepared and provided the proposed operating and capital improvement budgets to the City Council and has also prepared the proposed budgets for the Successor Agency to the Redevelopment Agency and the Housing Authority, and presented them to their respective governing bodies, for fiscal year 2026-27.

The budget document is organized as follows: Budget Message, General Fund Summary, Other Funds, Capital Improvement Program, Measure A Sales Tax Summary, Measure P Sales Tax Summary, Summary Tables, and Appendix. General Fund The General Fund budget funds the day-to-day operations of most City services. This section of the document provides an overview of General Fund revenues and expenditures, staffing changes, and budgetary trends. This section is followed by Department Summary reports that include departmental descriptions, mission statements, strategic goals, key performance measures, significant budget adjustments and service impacts, operating budgets, and staffing for each General Fund department. Significant budget adjustments are defined as: 1) additions and deletions of positions during the budget development process; and 2) increases or decreases in revenues and expenditures categories in the amount of $250,000 or greater. Other Funds In order to facilitate understanding of the different City funding sources, this portion of the document has been organized into the following major categories: Development Services Fund, Successor Agency and Housing Funds, Sewer Funds, Fleet Fund, Capital Projects Funds, Debt Service Funds, and Other Funds. Detailed descriptions and funding are provided for each fund. Due to various legal restrictions, these funds are limited in their uses and generally cannot be applied to fund day-to-day City operations such as Police and Fire public safety services. Capital Improvement Program This section provides an overview of the City’s Capital Improvement Program for the coming fiscal year. The Capital Improvement Program accounts for the acquisition, rehabilitation, or construction of major capital facilities, infrastructure, or equipment. More detailed information about each capital project, project status, expenditures to date, current year appropriations, and future funding, can be found in the Capital Improvement Program budget document Measure A Sales Tax Fund The voter approved one-half cent Public Safety Sales Tax related income and expenditures are budgeted in a separate fund. The Measure A Sales Tax Fund Summary provides the allocation summary for the coming fiscal year. Measure P Sales Tax Fund The City established a separate fund to track and account for income and expenditures related to the voter approved one- half cent Sales Tax. The Measure P Sales Tax Fund Summary provides a summary of the allocation for the coming fiscal year. Summary Tables The Summary Tables provide a quick way to view budget allocations by department (or fund) and expenditure category, revenues by fund and type, and Council authorized positions by department.

Budgeted Funds A fund is a grouping of related accounts that is used to maintain control over resources that have been segregated for specific activities or objectives. The City, like other state and local governments, uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements. All the funds of the City can be divided into three categories: governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds. The basis of budgeting is the same as the basis of accounting, Not all City funds are appropriated, or “budgeted.” Fiduciary funds are typically not subject to budget requirements as funds contain resources held by the City but belonging to individuals or entities other than the City. The Successor Agency to the Redevelopment Agency of the City of Chula Vista is an instance of a budgeted fiduciary fund.

The concept of Major Funds was established by Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement 34 and replaces the concept of combining like funds and presenting them in total. Instead, each Major Fund is presented individually, with all Non-major Funds summarized and presented in a single column of the City’s fund financial statements. Major funds are funds with revenues, expenditures/expenses, assets, or liabilities which are at least 10 percent of corresponding totals for all governmental or enterprise funds and at least 5 percent of the aggregate amount for all governmental and enterprise funds. The following table represents the major funds reported in the City’s Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) for Fiscal Year 2025.

This budget was developed with meaningful community input and continues to support and maintain the services most valued by our residents. Community engagement will remain essential in shaping City priorities, and residents are encouraged to share their perspectives on how we invest in our neighborhoods, whether through public surveys, community meetings or participation in the City’s strategic planning process. The proposed budget for the coming year reflects an economic outlook that is stable with limited growth, along with ongoing infrastructure investments and continued commercial and residential development throughout the City. We will continue to monitor economic trends closely and provide fiscally responsible recommendations to ensure the City remains prepared for potential future uncertainties In 2025, the Gaylord Pacific Resort and Convention Center opened, and its success this year provides strong momentum for continued progress on the Bayfront, including the new Harbor Park and the Bayfront Fire Station. Significant advancements have also been made in University District planning efforts, with the South County Higher Education Planning Task Force now established and construction underway for San Diego State University’s School of Nursing and Global Campus at the Millenia Library Building. This marks the City’s first partnership focused on expanding higher education opportunities for residents and the broader region.In the coming fiscal year, we look forward to completing renovations and reopening the City’s oldest park, Eucalyptus Park, as well as opening the multipurpose Millenia Library Building. We will continue working to secure additional partnerships to bring innovative education, business opportunities, and community resources to the eastern part of the City. The City will also continue supporting innovative housing and mixed-use projects, such as Palomar Point, investing in the operations and security of our technology infrastructure, and advancing economic development as we support local businesses and strengthen the City’s long-term vitality.The City continues to plan for increased infrastructure projects and increased public safety expenditures made possible by Chula Vista voters’ approval of Measure P in 2016 and Measure A in 2018. In November 2024, voters overwhelmingly supported extending Measure P through 2037, reflecting the community’s ongoing commitment to maintaining City assets and infrastructure. The proposed budget includes $4.2 million in Measure P funding for improvements and repairs to parks, recreation centers, drainage, sidewalks, and other public facilities. Measure A continues to support essential public safety investments, including additional Fire Academy and Fuels Crew costs, as well as the Police drone program and public safety facilities improvements. Budget Goals The City continually strives to find new ways to maximize limited resources to deliver high-quality services to our community. In preparing the General Fund budget for fiscal year 2026-27, staff focused on the following budget development goals:Fund the highest level of municipal services possible based on available resources.Maintain core community services and strategically add operational and support positions.Make significant progress on key programs and projects in support of the City’s Strategic Plan and University efforts Incorporate conservative revenue projections in the development of the proposed budget.

Respectfully, Tiffany Allen, City Manager Page 314 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda BUDGET PROCESS Page 315 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda Page 316 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 Budget Message BUDGET PROCESS 9 Budget Process The City of Chula Vista’s budget is created in conjunction with City Council, City staff, and City residents. The budget process begins each year with development of the preliminary base budget in January and is completed with the City Council adoption of the budget in May. The fiscal year 2027 budget cycle began with a preliminary base budget developed by the Finance Department’s Budget and Analysis staff in January 2026. The base budget accounts for the normal operating costs of the City. Through April 2026, Finance staff worked with departments to refine the base budgets and incorporate departmental changes to align the budgets with anticipated department operations for the coming year. The budget development process provided City departments the opportunity to recommend budget adjustments based on department operational requests and/or one-time funding requests. Requests are reviewed by City Administration and are included in the City Manager’s Proposed Budget. While Finance staff was developing the operating budget, Engineering & Capital Projects staff worked to develop and finalize the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) budget. Finance staff will present the City Council with a balanced General Fund budget on May 5, 2026. At this meeting, the Council can accept the fiscal year 2027 City Manager’s proposed operating budget as their own, with minor changes in appropriations, and set the public hearing date of May 19, 2026, prior to Council acting on the adoption of the budget Copies of the Proposed Budget were made available for public review in the Office of the City Clerk and the City’s website ten (10) days prior to the public hearing. As set forth in the City Charter, at any meeting after the adoption of the budget, the City Council may amend or supplement the budget by motion adopted by affirmative votes of at least four (4) members. Throughout the year, the Finance Department provides the City Council with quarterly financial status reports comparing expenditure and revenue projections to budgeted amounts, highlighting any variances, and recommending corrective actions as necessary Budget Strategy The City’s budgeting process is built around the objectives outlined in the City’s Strategic Plan. The Plan’s framework assists staff in weighing the community’s priorities against the limited resources available to achieve strategic goals. City Strategic Plan The City is currently in the process of adopting a new citywide Strategic Plan. When adopted by City Council, the strategic plan will establish a clear and shared vision for the City’s future and align resources toward that vision. It will guide decision making by setting priorities, goals, and measurable outcomes that ensure accountability and transparency. Ultimately, a strong strategic plan guides the city proactively to address needs, improve services, and strengthen quality of life for residents and businesses. In this budget, you will find department specific strategic goals and key performance measures, which will be updated next fiscal year to align with the new citywide Strategic Plan. Budget Development Milestones November 18, 2025 Staff presented to the City Council the General Fund Long-Term Financial Plan Fiscal Years 2027-2036, which served as a guideline for the development of the Fiscal Year 2027 City Manager’s Proposed Budget. Page 317 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 Budget Message BUDGET PROCESS 10 Consistency with Financial Policies & Procedures It is the expectation and general understanding of the City Council and the citizens of Chula Vista that City Staff conduct financial affairs in a thoughtful and prudent manner. Several financial policies have been established to provide the direction and limits within which the City is to fulfill its fiscal responsibilities. The FY 2026-27 Proposed Budget conforms with the requirements of the City’s Finance Department Policies and Procedures. An overview of compliance with major policy sections are described below. See the Appendix for additional details on the City’s Fiscal and Investment Policies. General Financial Policies (City Council Policy 100-01) Budget Development The FY 2026-27 budget development process included opportunities for public input, occurring in open and publicly accessible forums, via an online budget survey and budget workshops and public hearings held before City Council which accept comments from the public. The City has also utilized a ten-year financial plan and a long-term financial forecast model to promote planned spending patterns, engage in long-range planning, and reduce the time and resources spent preparing annual budgets. Balanced Budget By policy, City Council must adopt a balanced General Fund budget with projected operating revenues fully covering projected operating expenditures. The FY 2026-27 Proposed Budget is a balanced budget. Operating revenues are budgeted to support the operating expenditures, including debt service, for the 2026-27 fiscal year. Fund Balance and Reserves During the close of each fiscal year, actual fund revenues are compared against actual fund expenditures. When revenues exceed expenditures in a fiscal year, apositive fund balance will result (surplus) and add to the historical, accumulated fund balance. When expenditures exceed revenues in a fiscal year, anegative fund balance will result deficit) and reduce the accumulated fund balance. An accumulated positive fund balance may also be restricted/ earmarked for usage or unrestricted as to its use. For instance, City Council has set forth policies to maintain April 15 & 22, 2026; May 4, 2026 Three public meetings were held at City library branches and a senior community center to provide an overview of the City Manager’s Proposed Budget. April 30, 2026 The City Manager’s Proposed Budget Document was submitted to City Council as required by the City Charter, which was at least thirty-five (35) days prior to the beginning of the fiscal year. Copies of the Proposed Budget were made available for public review on the City’s website. May 5, 2026 Staff presented to City Council the Fiscal Year 2027 City Manager’s Proposed Budget for Council consideration and acceptance of the Budget as the City Council’s Proposed Budget Staff recommended a public hearing for adoption of the Proposed Budget be scheduled for the May 19, 2026 City Council meeting. Leading up to this hearing, the City Council’s Proposed Budget was be made available for public review for at least ten (10) days. A comment form was provided on the City website to accept public comment. May 19, 2026 A public hearing was tentatively scheduled to be held before the City Council considers adoption of the Proposed Budget. To comply with the City Charter, a notice of the public hearing was published in the local newspaper at least ten (10) days prior to the meeting. After the public hearing, the City Council voted on whether to adopt the budget for Fiscal Year 2027 Page 318 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 Budget Message BUDGET PROCESS 11 minimum fund balances as reserves, with funds set aside for particular circumstances or purposes, such as catastrophic events or economic downturns.

National The latest forecast from UCLA Anderson economists’ Spring 2026 Economic Outlook is the national economy regaining momentum” in 2026 after 2025’s year of uncertainty from changes in tariffs, immigration policies and government shutdowns.1 With tax cuts under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, fiscal stimulus and continued investment in artificial intelligence (AI), growth is expected at a near 3% rate.2 On the other hand, labor market stagnation is also a possibility as both jobs hiring and turnover slow.2 Consumers continue to feel elevated prices, with core Consumer Price Index (CPI) for All Urban Consumers nationally reported as rising to 3.3% percent over the last 12 months, in March 2026.3 This is the highest level since May 2024, driven largely by a surge in energy costs.3 The Federal Reserve made three cuts to interest rates in both 2024 and 2025 in an effort to stabilize prices; the probability of cuts in 2026 is now considered to be low.1 Early in 2026, national unemployment levels remain low at 4.3% per the March 2026 Bureau of Labor Statistics report 4 UCLA Anderson suggests the labor market is improving after stalling in 2025, with job gains in healthcare; however, improvements across sectors is uneven.2 The chart below from the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis displays recent quarterly results of real GDP, a measure of the value of all goods and services produced in a country over a period of time (adjusted for inflation), which is an economic indicator of national growth.5 Estimated results for the fourth quarter (Q4) of 2025 were a 0.7% annual rate, down sharply from the third quarter (Q3) results of 4.4% due to downturns in government spending and exports, and a deceleration in consumer spending, partly offset by an acceleration in investments.5 Continued positive growth each quarter generally allays economists’ concerns that a recession is forthcoming. The most recent quarter’s lower rate is not surprising given the sustained federal government shutdown in October 2025, and is expected to normalize in the first quarter (Q1) of 2026. The Federal Reserve will be closely monitoring this relatively positive economic growth in its policy decisions to reduce inflation and maximize employment.

Jobs reports and risk associated with a prolonged war in the Middle East causing oil and stock market volatility will be closely monitored by the Federal Reserve in decisionmaking for changing federal interest rates. In their latest meeting in March 2026, the Federal Reserve has maintained the federal fund rate at a target range of 3.5% to 3.75%.1 The rate has been held steady to continue to manage inflation, which is still somewhat elevated, as indicators suggest that economic activity has been expanding at a solid pace and the unemployment rate has been little changed in recent months The “federal funds rate” established by the FOMC is important as it sets the interest rate at which banks lend money to other banks to maintain overnight reserves of funds. When the federal funds rate increases, the cost to banks for lending increases and passed on to businesses and consumers on other borrowing, such as for business investments, credit cards, cars, mortgages and other bank loans. Policymakers monitor whether changes in the rate hinders employment levels, price control and economic growth. City Impacts: Interest rate fluctuations impact the City’s finances by affecting: borrowing costs for capital projects and long-term investments; private investments growth; and investment returns on its cash balances. To a limited extent, interest rates impact the housing market and resultant property tax growth. Labor In the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics report from February 2026, the national unemployment rate was 4.4%, up slightly from 4.1% one year ago, with notable losses in information, federal government and healthcare.2 Hints of a deterioration in labor market conditions are apparent, with tariff pressures remaining and more recent figures partially explained by healthcare strikes and winter storms.3 City Impacts: For the City of Chula Vista, filling vacancies of positions continues to be a challenge due to retirements, competition with other agencies, and a misalignment of job requirements with the labor pool skillset. This trend is factored into the calculation of salary savings, i.e., the amount of expected savings in personnel services costs due to vacancies. Personnel Services expenditures are described in the General Fund Expenditures Summary section of this document 1 Federal Open Market Committee. “Federal Reserve Press Release” 18 Mar 2026 https://www.federalreserve.gov/newsevents/pressreleases/ monetary20260318a.htm 2 U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Despite persistent worry about the cost of living and inflation expectations–somehwat influenced recently by oil and gas spikes from the war in Iran–consumer confidence inched up in March.1 However, there is an overall general downward trend in the index as consumer balance somewhat improved conditions with growing concerns about future costs.1 City Impacts: Consumer confidence is interconnected with the City’s levels of sales tax receipts over time. For Fiscal Year 2027, the City anticipates a slowing rate of sales tax growth; sales tax revenue is described in the General Fund Revenue Summary section of this document Housing Aside from the Federal Reserve’s focus on labor and inflation, housing data remains a leading indicator of U.S. economic activity. Strong demand for housing sent home prices soaring during the months after the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. Mortgage rates have undergone extreme volatility since, from record-breaking lows to highest levels in decades due to Federal Reserve interest rate changes. For the past two years, rates have stabilized, lingering between a 6% and 7% interest rate.2 The average interest rate for a fixed 30-year mortgage was 6.2% in April 2026, down slightly from 6.6% one year ago; rates remain high compared to April 2021, at just under 3%.2 Single-family homes continue to be unaffordable for many buyers and supply continues to slow as material, labor and capital costs climb and existing homeowners are locked in at low mortgage rates; these constraints would be exacerbated by further changes in trade (e.g., tariffs) and immigration policy. According to the U.S. Census Bureau’s Economic Indicators report from March 2026, nationally sales of new single-family houses were down 11.3% in January compared to the prior year.3 The median sales price of new homes sold nationally in January 2026 was 400,500, a decline of 6.8% compared to one year ago, while the average price was $530,900, a decline of 3.6% compared to one year ago 3 City Impacts: Elevated home prices and change in home sales (turnover rate) impacts the growth in assessed valuations and property tax revenues to the City. Property tax revenue is described in the General Fund Revenue Summary section of this document State of California The UCLA Anderson Spring 2026 Economic Outlook predicts California’s economy’s growth rate will outpace the national rate through 2026, with strong output growth despite unemployment weakness.4 The Forecast assessed a 3.8% annualized fourth-quarter growth rate for California, well above the 1.4% national estimate and the fourth straight quarter of growth outpacing the national rate.5 On the other hand, employment levels declined to 5.5% and has hovered around 5% for two years.5 Certain sectors such as AI, aerospace and other high-tech industries are thriving, while construction, retail, and leisure and hospitality growth is slowing.5 Unemployment: The State of California’s Employment Development Department (EDD) regularly releases a “Labor Market Review” publication. In the April 2026 edition, the EDD reported a 5.4% unemployment rate in February 2026 for the State of California, unchanged from one year ago in February 2025, and continuing to be significantly higher than the national unemployment rate at 4.4%.6 Regional performance varied significantly across the state, with coastal tech hubs typically showing lower unemployment than agricultural regions. California’s unemployment has historically been higher than the national average due a combination of industry-specific struggles, high operational costs and structural economic factors 1 The Conference Board.

Elevating gasoline prices in California even further, the recent conflict in Iran has disrupted oil exports in the Middle East, leading to a recent sharp increase in the price of crude oil.1 Over the last several months, prices for a gallon of gasoline have increased; in April 2026, the national average price of regular unleaded gasoline was $4.06 and the state average was $5.88.2 Pr i c e p e r g a l l o n re g u l a r u n l e a d e d U S D 3.17$3.17$3.17 $ 4.06$4.06$4.06$ 4.81$4.81$4.81 5.88$5.88$5.88 Average Gasoline Price National California April 2025 April 2026 0.00 2.00 4.00 6.00 8.00 AAA, California Average Gas Prices County of San Diego Unemployment: The EDD also publishes data on countywide unemployment data in its Labor Market Review report. From the April 2026 report, the unemployment rate in San Diego County was 4.5% in February 2026, up slightly from 4.4% one year ago in February 2025.3 Inflation: The Bureau of Labor Statistics’ consumer price index for urban customers (CPI-U) illustrates the change in the prices of a standard list of goods and services. The County of San Diego experienced a 3.2% increase in prices for March 2026 paid for the standard set of goods and services, as compared to one year ago; this is slightly less than the national rate of 3.3% for March 2026.4 Higher prices for energy and food were major contributors to the CPI change in the San Diego region. Housing: The San Diego Association of Realtors (SDAR) reported the median home price of a detached home in San Diego County was $1,100,000 in March 2026, a 2.4% increase from one year ago.5 The increase in home prices has moderated and with the effective interest rates only dropping slightly, mostly due to tariff-induced uncertainty. New listings were down 14.3% from last year and day on market until sale increased by 8.8% compared to last year.3 1 U.S. Energy Information Administration.

A pension obligation bond is a taxable bond issued to investors, with proceeds utilized to extinguish all or a part of the City’s pension liabilities. These liabilities are termed the “unfunded accrued liability” (UAL) and are due to the California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CalPERS). The UAL is the shortfall or gap between what the City has in assets and what it will need in assets to fully pay out the benefits that it has promised to retirees under CalPERS. Issuance of the POBs provides the City several benefits, including: (1) generating cash flow savings to the City through historically low interest rates relative to the CalPERS discount rate assumption; (2) creating a repayment shape for the City’s pension liabilities that increases more gradually than currently mandated by CalPERS; (3) enhancing budget predictability and long-term fiscal sustainability by creating a smoother repayment shape at a lower level; (4) leveraging the projected savings to adequately fund various reserves; and (5) setting aside a portion of the future savings into the Pension Debt Reserve Fund to mitigate future pension and OPEB cost increases and potentially pay off (redeem) the POBs prior to maturity. On September 15, 2020, City Council approved the initial legal documents related to a POB and the City and its financing team initiated a validation process in the San Diego County Superior Court. This process concluded on January 11, 2021, with the City refinancing the City’s UAL with CalPERS at historically low interest rates. In February 2021, the City issued approximately $350 million in Pension Obligation Bonds to refund all of the UAL based on the CalPERS Actuarial Valuation as of June 30, 2019. At issuance, the projected benefit to the City from the 2021 Pension Obligation Bonds issuance was $116 million 112 million on a present value basis). These savings estimates assume that CalPERS achieves its target rate 7.0% at the time of issuance; updated to 6.8% in July 2021) in the future. Savings will be higher if CalPERS earns more than the target rate and lower if it earns less than the target rate. These savings will be utilized to fund the new Pension Reserve Fund mentioned above, mitigating future fiscal impacts from anticipated CalPERS pension investment return shortfalls.

This is a net increase of 5.0 positions when compared to the fiscal year 2026 Adopted Budget that included 1,325.75 authorized positions. The summary of staffing changes is divided into two sections – the staffing changes that were approved by Council during fiscal year 2026 and changes made as part of the development of the fiscal year 2027 budget. Position Changes Authorized during Fiscal Year 2026 During fiscal year 2026, Council approved a net increase of 1.00 full-time equivalent (FTE) positions citywide, as well as several reclassifications to reflect changes in duties.

Fiscal year 2027 capital improvement projects will be funded primarily by non General Fund allocations; see the Capital Improvement Program section of this document The fiscal year 2027 Proposed General Fund Budget is balanced, with budgeted expenditures equal to or less than budgeted revenues, plus other available sources. The fiscal year 2027 Proposed Budget continues positive growth in its revenue sources. However, due to multiple factors within the current economy, conservative growth assumptions have been incorporated into the budget projections. The fiscal year 2027 Proposed Budget expenditures focus on maintaining current levels of service.

The fiscal year 2027 Adopted General Fund Budget includes funding for the annualized costs of negotiated salary increases approved per the current Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with each of the City’s employee groups Rising Retirement Costs The increase in retirement/pension costs driven by rising California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CalPERS) contributions is a significant budgetary challenge facing the City. Pension cost increases are the largest financial challenge facing most cities throughout the state and are primarily due to factors outside of the cities’ control, namely actuarial assumptions changes made by CalPERS and below average investment returns. The payments estimated to be made to the retirement system equal approximately $22.6 million or 7.1% of the City’s fiscal year 2027 Proposed Budget. This represents an increase of $1.6 million from the fiscal year 2026 Adopted Budget. To follow is a series of charts related to pension costs. The first chart depicts the actual market rates of return for the CalPERS investment portfolio in relation to the 6.8% investment return assumption used by CalPERS in most years.

Due to the payment of the Unfunded Accrued Liability (UAL) June 30, 2019 balance to CalPERS paid by the proceeds of the City’s issuance of the 2021 Pension Obligation Bonds, retirement costs decreased in fiscal year 2022 and 2023. However, due to lower than anticipated CalPERS investment earnings, increases to the CalPERS unfunded accrued liability (UAL) costs and scheduled annual debt service payments to service the 2021 Pension Obligation Bonds, retirement costs are anticipated to increase.

This represents an increase of $0.7 million or 4.7% from the fiscal year 2026 Adopted Budget. The increase in costs is primarily due to the City’s health insurance providers Kaiser and AETNA rate increases in calendar year 2026, based on healthcare utilization rates.

Measure A – Approved in June 2018, Measure A is a half-cent sales tax dedicated to addressing public safety (Police and Fire departments) critical needs. Collection of this revenue began in October 2018; Measure A sales tax does not have a sunset date. The fiscal year 2027 Proposed Budget projects approximately $31.3 million in revenue from this tax and a matching transfer out of the General Fund to the Measure A fund for the same amount less administrative costs. The fiscal year 2027 Proposed Budget transfer amount is an increase of approximately $.4 million over the transfer amount included in the fiscal year 2026 Adopted Budget. Although these measures were approved as “general purpose tax” (City has discretion to spend revenues generated for any lawful municipal purpose), the City has established specific uses and spending plans for each revenue stream. Accordingly, the City has set up separate funds to monitor and track the usage and balance of these funds. The General Fund serves as a pass-through conduit for these funds. The fiscal year 2027 Proposed Budget includes transfers out of approximately $30.9 and $31.2 million to Measure P and Measure A funds, respectively. Specific budget information related to these measures is provided in the Measure P and Measure A sections of this document.

Projected increase of approximately $0.4 million for Measure A sales tax revenues and $0.4 million for Measure P sales tax revenues. Projected increase of approximately $0.6 million in Franchise Fees revenue. Major Revenue Changes by Category The following summarizes the significant changes within the revenue categories: Property Taxes – For fiscal year 2027, property taxes are anticipated to total $58.7 million, which accounts for 18.4% of the General Fund revenue budget. This category reflects an increase of $.2 million or .4% over the prior year’s adopted budget Sales Tax – Sales tax revenue represents the second largest revenue source for the City. The fiscal year 2027 Proposed Budget projects $52.2 million to be collected in sales tax revenue. This revenue source represents 16.4% of the fiscal year 2027 Proposed General Fund revenue budget. When compared to the prior fiscal year adopted budget, Sales Tax revenues for fiscal year 2027 are projected to increase by $.9 million or 1.8%. This is exclusive of the Measure P and Measure A Sales Tax revenues. Measure P Sales Tax – The City of Chula Vista voters approved the Measure P Sales Tax Measure in November 2016. Measure P was a temporary, ten-year, half-cent sales tax dedicated by the City to funding high priority deferred maintenance items. Collection of the revenue began in fiscal year 2017 and fiscal year 2018 was the first full year the City received Measure P revenue. In 2024, voters approved the continuation of Measure P through 2037. The fiscal year 2027 Proposed Budget projects $31.3 million in Measure P Sale Tax revenues, which is an increase of approximately $.4 million or 1.4% over the fiscal year 2026 Adopted Budget. The full amount of revenue collected for Measure P is transferred out from the General Fund to the Measure P fund. The General Fund only serves as a conduit for these funds and provides no net impact to the General Fund. Measure A Sales Tax – The City of Chula Vista voters approved the Measure A Sales Tax Measure in June 2018. Measure A is a one-half cent Sales Tax increase to address identified critical needs and enhance public safety staffing. This sales tax will remain in place until and unless the voters repeal it. The fiscal year 2027 Proposed Budget projects $31.3 million in revenue for this revenue, which is an increase of approximately $.4 million or 1.4% over the fiscal year 2026 Adopted Budget. The full amount of revenue collected for Measure A is transferred out from the General Fund to the Measure A fund. The General Fund only serves as a conduit for these funds. Per the Measure A approved Intended Public Safety Expenditure Plan, several city departments, such as Human Resources and Information Technology, receive reimbursements from Measure A for staff time used supporting Measure A (public safety) operations. These reimbursements are counted as department generated revenues within the respective support departments. Property tax collected In-lieu of Motor Vehicle License Fees (MVLF) – The fiscal year 2027 Proposed Budget for the MVLF is $36.1 million, reflecting an increase of approximately $2.2 million over the fiscal year 2026 Adopted Budget amount. Beginning in fiscal year 2006, due to a change in revenue allocation resulting from the Budget Act of 2006, MVLF revenues are projected to grow in proportion to the change in gross assessed property valuation. As such, this revenue category reflects a 6.7% increase from fiscal year 2026 amounts.

Franchise fees are collected from three primary sources: gas electric, trash collection, and cable receipts. Transient Occupancy Taxes (TOT) – Transient occupancy tax revenues are projected to be $19.2 million in fiscal year 2027, a decrease of $2.6 million compared to the 2026 Adopted Budget. This decrease appears to be a nationwide situation with other jurisdictions in the county reporting decreased TOT revenues. TOT revenue generated by the Bayfront Hotel Resort and Convention Center is contractually required to be transferred out from the General Fund to a separate fund Utility Users Tax (UUT) – UUT revenues are estimated at $3.7 million for fiscal year 2027. The fiscal year 2027 Proposed Budget anticipates a very moderate increase in this revenue category of $0.05 million over the fiscal year 2026 Adopted Budget amounts. The following chart illustrates the fiscal year 2027 Proposed Budget revenues by revenue category.

Sales Tax Sales Tax revenue is estimated at $52.2 million in the fiscal year 2027 Proposed Budget, a change of approximately 1.8% or $0.9 million when compared to the fiscal year 2026 Adopted Budget. With the addition of Measure P and Measure A sales tax revenues, total Sales Tax revenues for fiscal year 2027 are projected to total $114.7 million. Sales tax revenue is highly sensitive to economic conditions, and reflects the factors that drive taxable sales, including levels of unemployment, consumer confidence, per-capita income, and business investment. Retailers must register with the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration(CDTFA) and pay the state’s sales tax. Sales taxes are collected at the point of sale and remitted to CDTFA. Sales tax provides revenue for the State, County, and City. Sales tax is collected at a rate of 8.75% for the City of Chula Vista, allocated based on the following: State General Fund (includes K-12/Community Colleges) 3.94% Public Safety (Prop 172) 0.50% County Realignment (Mental Health/Welfare/Public Safety) 1.56% Countywide Transportation Fund 0.25% San Diego County Regional Transportation Commission (TransNet) 0.50% State and County Subtotal 6.75% Local Jurisdiction (City or County of place sale/use) (City Share) 1.00% City Transaction Tax (Measure P) 0.50% City Transaction Tax (Measure A) 0.50% City Subtotal 2.00% Total Sales Tax Rate – Chula Vista (1) 8.75% 1) Total sales tax rates will vary by City due to local sales tax initiatives. With the approval of Measure P and Measure A, the City receives 2.0% of sales tax revenue applied to all taxable retail sales occurring within the City limits. The measures are projected to generate approximately $62.5 million in revenue in fiscal year 2027. The General Fund will serve as a pass-through for these revenues; these funds will ultimately be recognized as a Transfer Out to the Measure P and Measure A Sales Tax Funds. Sales tax revenue is highly sensitive to economic conditions, and reflects the factors that drive taxable sales, including levels of unemployment, consumer confidence, per-capita income, and business investment. Sales tax revenue (exclusive of Measure P and Measure A) is the City’s second largest discretionary revenue source, accounting for 16.4% of total revenue for the General Fund in the fiscal year 2027 Proposed Budget. The positive trend in sales tax growth is expected to continue in fiscal year 2027 and Sales Tax revenue is estimated at $52.2 million (excluding Measure P and Measure A revenues) in the Proposed Budget. This is a change of approximately 1.8% or $.9 million when compared to the fiscal year 2026 Adopted Budget. With the addition of Measure P and Measure A revenues, Sales Tax revenues for fiscal year 2027 are projected to total $114.7 million. The following graphs illustrate the generally gradually increasing trend in Sales Tax revenues (exclusive of Measure P and Measure A Sales Tax revenues) as well as Measure P and Measure A Sales Tax revenues from fiscal year 2024 to the projected amounts for fiscal year 2027.

Property Tax Property tax revenues comprise the City’s largest discretionary revenue source and accounts for 18.4% of the total revenue for the General Fund. This revenue source is estimated at $58.7 million in the fiscal year 2027 Proposed Budget and represents 0.4% or $0.2 million increase from the fiscal year 2026 Adopted Budget. Property Tax revenues are based on a 1.0% levy on the assessed value of all real property. Under the terms of Proposition 13, approved in California in 1978, annual increases in the assessed value are capped at a maximum of 2% per year unless there is a change in ownership or new construction. Annual increases in assessed value are limited by either the California Consumer Price Index (CPI) or the 2% cap, whichever is less. Property tax revenues represent a major funding source for the City of Chula Vista as well as other local jurisdictions. Currently, the City of Chula Vista receives approximately 12.6% of each property tax dollar. Distribution of property tax dollars is depicted below.

For natural gas services UUT is applied at a rate of $0.00919 per therm and $0.00250 per kilowatt on electricity services, which equates to a tax of approximately 1% of utility charges. Based on consumer trends and changes in technology, UUT is expected to slightly decline, and is budgeted at $3.7 million in fiscal year 2027, an increase of approximately $0.1 million, or 1% over the 2026 Adopted Budget. Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) The City of Chula Vista imposes a Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) upon all hotel stays within the City boundaries. The TOT tax rate in the City is 10%. Major economic drivers for TOT revenue include room rates, average occupancy rates, and seasonal and non seasonal tourism.

Motor Vehicle License Fees Motor Vehicle License Fees (MVLF) revenues are generated from vehicle license fees paid with vehicle registrations with the State of California and then allocated to cities and counties. The fiscal year 2027 Proposed Budget MVLF revenues are projected to increase by $2.3 million to $36.1 million and represent 11.3% of the total fiscal year 2027 anticipated General Fund revenues. With the State Budget Act of 2004, the allocation of MVLF revenues to cities and counties was substantially changed. Since 2006 the majority of MVLF revenues for each city grew essentially in proportion to the growth in the change in gross assessed valuation. Due to the revised formula by the State, 96% of the City’s MVLF revenues fluctuated with changes in assessed values within the City. The other 4% of MVLF revenues received by the City were based on a per capita formula but has since been shifted per Senate Bill (SB) 89 from June 2011. Provisions in SB89 shifted Vehicle License Fee revenues to fund the state law enforcement grants. Page 368 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 General Fund GENERAL FUND REVENUE SUMMARY 61 Estimated TOT revenues for fiscal year 2027 are $19.2 million. This estimate includes a projected $2.6 million decrease from the fiscal year 2026 Adopted Budget based on current trends and an increase in the number of hotel operators in the City of Chula Vista, including the opening of the Bayfront Hotel Resort and Convention Center.

Department generated revenues are broadly defined as those revenues generated by a given activity (e.g., grant revenues, charges for services, licenses, permits). General revenues, or “discretionary revenues,” are broadly defined as those revenues that are generated not by any given activity, but by general or specific taxing authority such as property taxes and sales tax that are included in Non-Departmental and not assigned to a specific department. Departments that generate small amounts of revenue relative to their size generally have higher net costs, while those that generate large amounts of revenue relative to their size generally have lower net costs. The majority of discretionary revenue is allocated to public safety services, with the Police Department expenditures at 37.8% followed by the Fire Department at 24.3%. The next highest portion was allocated to Public Works at 12.9%. The following chart depicts the percentage of net cost of all departments, excluding Non-Departmental, based on the fiscal year 2027 Proposed Budget.

The LTFP also served as a guideline for the development of the Fiscal Year 2027 General Fund budget The goal of the LTFP is to assess the City’s ability over the ten-year term of the plan to: Maintain current or expand service levels; Preserve the City’s long-term fiscal health; and Strategically maintain the City’s reserve funds to meet the City’s reserve policies thresholds. The LTFP only addresses the City’s General Fund. The General Fund serves as the principal source of revenues and expenditures that supports the City’s core, day-to-day operating expenses. The LTFP focuses on baseline General Fund revenues and expenditures that are essential for the City to achieve the City’s strategic goals over the next ten years. These goals include: Providing the highest level of municipal services based upon available resources; Maintaining safe and appealing neighborhoods; Providing funding for City infrastructure; and Continuing to expand the City’s economic development and financial base. It is important to emphasize that the LTFP is not a budget. The LTFP does not make expenditure decisions or assume revisions to current service levels but rather highlights the need to prioritize the allocation of City resources to ensure the continuation of core City services. The purpose of the LTFP is to provide the City Council, key stakeholders, and the public an overview of the City’s fiscal health based on various financial and service level assumptions over the next ten years, and to allow for the discussion of necessary steps to be initiated during the development and implementation of future budgets. The LTFP is intended to look beyond the annual budget cycle, serving as a planning tool to bring a long-term perspective to the budget process. Should projected expenditures exceed projected revenues in any given year, the City Manager will identify steps to mitigate the shortfalls prior to presenting a balanced budget to the City Council for consideration during the annual budget development process. Revenue and Expenditure Projections The LTFP forecasts General Fund revenues and expenditures based on current and known conditions, historical performance, economic data, and consultation from subject matter experts. The LTFP basis is the baseline operating revenues and expenditures in the City’s General Fund and includes adjustments to forecasts for revenues and expenditures based on maintaining the City’s service levels; anticipated new revenue streams and new projected costs (e.g., new facilities or financing tools); and other planned commitments. Based on projections within the LTFP, overall General Fund revenues and expenditures are anticipated to increase throughout the ten-year LTFP period. In some fiscal years, revenues are expected to exceed expenditures, resulting in an operating surplus; in others, expenditures are expected to exceed revenues, resulting in an operating deficit.

Typical matters include property acquisition and disposition, leasing, licensing, easements, development agreements, affordable housing transactions, and the winding down of redevelopment activities. Employment/Labor With over 1,000 full-time City employees, and five established bargaining units, the personnel and labor issues facing the City are complex and diverse.

General Municipal Law The City Attorney’s Office provides legal advice in diverse areas of local government law such as municipal finance, budgeting, and taxation. The City Attorney’s Office assists with the enactment of local laws by preparing City Council resolutions and ordinances, advises on conflicts of interest, open meeting laws, public records requirements, inter/ intragovernmental relations and advises the City’s many Boards and Commissions. The City Attorney’s Office is frequently called upon to interpret and apply the rules contained in the City Charter and Municipal Code. Litigation and Risk Management The City Attorney’s Office is responsible for defending the City against civil lawsuits alleging personal injury, land use, property damage, construction defect, wrongful death, and civil rights violations. The City Attorney’s Office also includes key risk/claims management staff, who evaluate pre-litigation claims against the City, and work with all City Departments to develop and improve policies and procedures that mitigate risk. Along with risk management staff, the Office also takes steps to protect the City’s interests and recover costs of damages incurred in certain matters including, but not limited to, breach of contract and construction defect matters. Cases and claims range from minor matters to multi-million-dollar lawsuits. The City Attorney’s Office also initiates litigation when it is necessary to protect the interests of the City and/or its constituents. Lawsuits initiated by the City can include breach of contract, enforcement of property rights, construction defects, and pollution matters. Criminal Prosecution The Neighborhood Protection Unit (NPU) is responsible for evaluating and prosecuting misdemeanor violations of the City’s Municipal Code. The topics covered vary according to the needs of the City. The NPU continues to work with City departments to support prosecutorial efforts to increase public safety in the City, as appropriate. The NPU also acts as a liaison with the District Attorney’s Office to support collaborative efforts to effectively combat issues facing the community NPU and CVPD have collaborated on prosecuting the illegal sales of flavored tobacco products, thanks to grant funding which allows CVPD to conduct inspections and enforcement operations at various locations selling tobacco products. NPU has also prosecuted violations related to cannabis dispensary operations. Gun Violence Restraining Orders The NPU works closely with the Chula Vista Police Department (CVPD) to obtain Gun Violence Restraining Orders (GVROs). GVROs are civil proceedings, filed by law enforcement agencies. The orders prevent individuals from obtaining or possessing firearms ammunition and/or body armor. These individuals face many different circumstances which may present a risk of gun violence, such as a mental health emergency, a threat of suicide, or Page 398 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 91 DEPARTMENT SUMMARY REPORTS City Attorney a threat of harm to another. NPU files these GVROs in court and appears at all court hearings on behalf of CVPD. NPU also coordinates training for officers and works in conjunction with other agencies to use this tool as efficiently and effectively as possible. In FY 2025-2026, CVPD referred 19 GVRO cases to NPU for review and filing. There were 7 permanent orders issued by the court after hearing. In 2 cases, the individuals were already otherwise prohibited from possessing firearms under other legal grounds. Three cases were dismissed after further investigation and criminal charges. Seven cases are still pending in court Police Controlled Licenses NPU also assists CVPD with ensuring compliance with Police Controlled Licenses (PCLs), for industries related to cannabis, alcohol, tobacco, hotels, and massage businesses. NPU facilitated the revocation of two massage business permits. The businesses had numerous violations of the Chula Vista Municipal Code and were allowing prostitution activity at their establishments. Code Enforcement The City Attorney’s Office assists with the enforcement of City Code provisions related to building standards, zoning requirements, neighborhood preservation, land use, and other conditions or conduct affecting public health, safety or welfare. Violations are addressed by employing the various legal enforcement tools available to the City: administrative actions, civil actions and, in extreme cases, criminal prosecution. The City Attorney’s Office provides further assistance by obtaining legal orders for the abatement, and/or demolition of substandard properties. NPU has assisted Code Enforcement with cases involving illegal/unpermitted grading, Mobile Food Facility violations, illegal encroachments in the public right of way, illegal encampments and environmental hazards. Public Requests for Legal Assistance The City Attorney’s Office frequently receives requests for assistance from the public. The City Attorney’s client is the city itself, not any one City resident. As a result, the City Attorney’s Office cannot provide direct legal advice to anyone other than the City Council, the City’s Boards and Commissions, the City Manager, and the other City employees acting on behalf of the City. However, the City Attorney staff use their best efforts to assist the public by directing them to other legal resources, as appropriate.

Page 448 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 141 DEPARTMENT SUMMARY REPORTS Engineering & Capital Projects Department MISSION STATEMENT The mission of the Engineering & Capital Projects Department is to provide and manage the City’s infrastructure through high quality operations, maintenance, and construction in order to optimize mobility, public and environmental health and safety STRATEGIC GOALS Connected Community Replace Loma Verde Community Center This facility was approximately 50 years old and was among the busiest community centers in the southwestern area of the City. The facility was in need of replacement. In April 2020, City Council approved a Design Build Agreement for replacing the Center which includes multi- purpose facilities in addition to an aquatic facility encompassing an area of approximately 44,000 square feet. In August 2021, City Council awarded the contract for construction for Phases 1 and 2 which includes the demolition and reconstruction of approximately 20,000 square feet of the Center and will feature a new multi- purpose gymnasium, dance rooms, crafts room, fitness room, game room, hard courts, restrooms, changing room, staff offices, lifeguard staff room, and break room. The Phase 3 portion of the project replaced the balance of the existing building to create space for new pool mechanical equipment, wet and dry storage, construction of a new pool; and deck, classroom space, a new splashpad, replacement playground, replacement of the solar water heater, and new sports lighting. STATUS: Construction of Segments 1 and 2 was completed in April 2023, and these segments were opened for limited use pending the completion of Segment 3. Design for Segment 3 began in June 2021 and was completed in June 2022. The Loma Verde Community Center is fully operational and open to the public while final construction activities are underway. Due to stormwater issues, the splash pad required redesign. Construction of the splash pad began on August 8, 2025, and was completed on December 31, 2025, with punch list items finalized on February 24, 2026. Project closeout is currently in progress. This project supports the City’s Strong and Secure Neighborhoods goal by providing a safe, modern, and appealing space where residents can gather, play, and stay connected. Expansion of Adaptive Traffic Control Systems and Traffic Signal Modernization These “smart” traffic signal systems detect approaching vehicles along certain major corridors to automatically adjust the duration of traffic signal cycles to best serve changing traffic patterns and congestion in real time. The goal is to reduce travel times, enhance safety, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions attributable to vehicles idling at red lights along heavily traveled streets. These modern adaptive control systems also have the capability to connect to some connected vehicles and autonomous vehicles, better known as self-driving cars, using vehicle-to-infrastructure data sharing technology. In 2021, the City upgraded 29 intersections along Telegraph Canyon Road, East H Street, and Otay Lakes Road with adaptive traffic signal controllers. The system continues to be monitored and optimized even years later to provide a safe and efficient flow of traffic along these major corridors. In 2023, the City completed the construction of traffic signal modifications and improvements at 11 locations throughout the City. The CIP project’s scope of work included traffic signal modifications and upgrades to improve visibility, provide for protected left turn movements, provide for permissible flashing yellow left turn movements, and replace failing and outdated traffic signals at various locations Citywide. Page 449 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 142 DEPARTMENT SUMMARY REPORTS Engineering & Capital Projects Department In 2026, the City continues to expand its advanced traffic control system onto sections of Otay Lakes Rd and Eastlake Parkway and traffic signal modernization at three intersections throughout the City focuses on upgrading traffic signal hardware, improving circulation and safety at these locations. These projects are in the design phase. For the remainder of 2026 and into 2027, the City plans to continue its phased modernization of legacy traffic signal controller hardware as well as its traffic signal communications network, which will result in utility cost savings, improved operational efficiency and flexibility, and enhanced functionality to facilitate more modern traffic control operations. STATUS: The City continues to evaluate other streets to deploy modern traffic signal technology which will enhance safety, efficiency, and support the City’s transportation initiatives. Strong and Secure Neighborhoods Replace Heritage Road Bridge The existing four-lane bridge at Heritage Road was built using FEMA emergency funding as an interim facility in 1993 when heavy flood waters destroyed the original two-lane river crossing. This interim bridge is inadequate for peak traffic volumes, does not accommodate pedestrians, special event vehicle volumes, and is unable to convey the 50-year storm without being overtopped. Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and Caltrans approved the bridge for replacement as the existing bridge is Functionally Obsolete (FO) and the cost of rehabilitation exceeded replacement. In 2014, the Heritage Road Bridge Replacement Project was accepted into the Highway Bridge Program (HBP). The HBP provides funding to enable states to improve the condition of their highway bridges through replacement, rehabilitation, and systematic preventive maintenance of deficient bridges. As of March 2025, approved grant funds total $6.8 million for preliminary engineering, $214 thousand for right- of-way acquisition, $31.3 million for construction, and $4.7 million for construction engineering. Funding for construction includes $42.5 million HBP funds, $17.5 million City TDIF funds, and a $2 Million contribution from the City of San Diego. Environmental resource agency permits are in place and final coordination for a supporting document is on- going with California Department of Fish and Wildlife. STATUS: Construction of the Heritage Road Bridge Replacement Project began in December 2024 and is anticipated to be completed in July 2027. Early phases of construction were completed in March 2026, and work is currently progressing on the next phase of the bridge. The project continues to advance in coordination with the City of San Diego, including shared funding for improvements along Heritage Road. Additional roadway improvements are planned to be pursued following project completion.. Renovation of Eucalyptus Park Eucalyptus Park was the City’s first park, built in 1927. The 19.69-acre community park is located at 436 C Street and stretches from 5th Avenue and 4th Avenue. The renovation work is funded in part by $6.4 million in grant funding from the Statewide Parks Program’s Round Four, awarded in February 2022.

As development projects can significantly impact law enforcement operations, it is essential that the police perspective is incorporated early in the planning process to support effective, well-informed decision-making. As the City continues to grow and police service demands increase, the Police Department is coordinating with a consultant to facilitate a feasibility study on the potential development of a police substation in eastern Chula Vista Championing Community Engagement, Equity and Inclusion Continue to build trust between law enforcement and the community Strong, trust-based relationships between police agencies and the communities they serve are essential to effective policing and public safety. Law enforcement relies on community cooperation to share information, report crime, and collaborate on solutions to issues of crime and disorder. In turn, community trust is built when residents believe that police actions are aligned with community values and guided by the principles of procedural justice and legitimacy. STATUS: CVPD staff will engage in meaningful dialogue, ongoing training, and collaborative efforts with the community to strengthen existing relationships, build new ones, and address concerns related to bias, racism, or adverse police conduct. The Community Engagement Division will take the lead in advancing this important work.

Enterprise funds are self-supporting, where revenues cover expenses. Enterprise funds allow for operating expenses to be adjusted with changes in demand, avoiding impacts to the General Fund when revenue fluctuations occur because of changes in development activity throughout the City. The Development Services Fund provides Planning, Building, Facilities Financing, Engineering, Landscape Architecture, and Development Permitting services to property owners, developers, and the City as required for the entitlement and/or improvement of property. The services provided encompass most development activities, including land use entitlements; public infrastructure, open space, and landscape planning; public infrastructure construction, grading and building permits. Revenues Development related revenues consist of two categories: development processing fee revenues and deposit-based revenues. Development processing fee revenues include building permit fees, planning fees, and engineering fees. Deposit-based revenues compensate the City for the actual costs to review specific development projects and are generated through staff time reimbursements. The City is anticipating that the following major projects will continue to move forward in fiscal year 2027: Bayfront Redevelopment Project Millenia Project Freeway Commercial North Otay Ranch Villages Sunbow II, Phase 3 Chula Vista Center mixed-use project Otay Ranch Town Center mixed-use project University Land Entitlement Projects Salt Creek Residential Development The following table compares the fiscal year 2026 Adopted Budget revenues to the fiscal year 2027 Proposed Budget revenues.

The goals of the former Redevelopment Agency were to reduce blight and to encourage new development, reconstruction, and rehabilitation of residential, commercial, industrial, and retail uses. Since the Agency’s creation, the City adopted and amended six project areas to encompass a total of approximately 3,563 acres of City territory. Land uses within these areas are mostly commercial and industrial, but also includes some residential and public uses (e.g., governmental administrative centers, corporation yards, streets, etc.). On December 29, 2011, amidst a state fiscal emergency, the California Supreme Court upheld Assembly Bill (AB) 26 dissolving California redevelopment agencies. Effective February 1, 2012, all redevelopment agencies were dissolved, and the City of Chula Vista assumed the role of Successor Agency to the Chula Vista Redevelopment Agency (City Council resolution 2011-164). The Successor Agency is responsible for the wind down of the former Redevelopment Agency activities and obligations. The Successor Agency will continue to oversee all legally enforceable obligations as well as dispose of the former Redevelopment Agency assets. As required by AB 26, an Oversight Board, composed of affected taxing entities within the City, was created. The primary responsibility of the Oversight Board is reviewing and approving the annual Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule and serving in a fiduciary role to the taxing entities that the Oversight Board represents. The Oversight Board transitioned to one central County Oversight Board in fiscal year 2019. Fund Descriptions The Successor Agency budget is organized into a Redevelopment Obligation Retirement Fund (RORF) and debt service funds. The RORF accounts for the staffing and other expenditures required in winding down activities of the former Redevelopment Agency. The Debt Service funds are used to pay for the former Redevelopment Agency’s debt service on its outstanding Tax Allocation Bonds, loans and other debt of the former Redevelopment Agency. Operating Funds Fund 318: Redevelopment Obligation Retirement Fund (RORF) The RORF serves as the primary operating funds in the winding down of the former Redevelopment Agency. This fund is used to pay the documented enforceable obligations of the former redevelopment agency that have been approved by the Successor Agency Oversight Board and the State Department of Finance. Debt Service Funds The Debt Service funds are used to pay for former Redevelopment Agency debt service on its outstanding Tax Allocation Bonds, loans and other debt of the former Redevelopment Agency. Fund 666: 2016 Tax Allocation Refunding Bonds (TARBs) In July 2016, the Successor Agency issued the Tax Allocation Refunding Bonds in the amount of $29,315,000 to refinance the Agency’s outstanding 2006 Senior Tax Allocation Refunding Bonds, Series A, 2006 Subordinate Tax Allocation Refunding Bonds, Series B, and the 2008 Tax Allocation Refunding Bonds. The Annual Debt Service is paid from property tax increments generated in the project areas. The term of the bonds runs through 2036. Fund 692: Long Term Advances Debt Service Fund – Redevelopment Agency This fund was established to account for Redevelopment Agency inter-fund loans.

The wastewater generated by Chula Vista customers is collected and sent to treatment facilities in the South Bay and Point Loma through the City’s extensive sewer collection system, which consists of 13 pump stations and over 500 miles of sewer pipe. The San Diego Metropolitan Wastewater System (San Diego Metro) provides wastewater treatment services to the City of Chula Vista and most of the region per an agreement. The wastewater permit for the Point Loma Treatment Plant Advanced Primary requires a waiver which is renewed regularly. The last approved waiver application, submitted in 2015 to the Regional Water Quality Control Board and the Environmental Protection Agency was approved in April 2018 with special conditions. This included the requirement to implement the Pure Water Program. The 2005 Chula Vista Wastewater Master Plan (WWMP), which was updated in 2014, identifies a conservative planning level sewer generation rate of 230 gallons per equivalent dwelling units (EDU). The 2014 WWMP estimates the City’s ultimate sewer treatment capacity required for the currently planned build out condition will be 29.89 million gallons per day (MGD). However, current flow projections are lower with treatment capacity needs estimated at 19.9 MGD. The reduction in flow can be attributed, in part, to lowered use due to the increase in the cost of water and on-going water conservation efforts. The City’s buildout sewer capacity needs are projected to be between the WWMP and the current metered flow estimate. The Wastewater Engineering Section will continue to track water usage trends, changes in land use and population projections to validate current generation rates and project the ultimate need for the City. An update to the WWMP is currently underway, which will include an evaluation of the projected build out sewer needs. The following figure illustrates the City’s current trunk sewer network, which conveys flows to the San Diego Metro trunk sewer (shown in red). Some of the City’s sewer lines are used by the County of San Diego (County) and some of the County’s sewer pipelines are used by the City and coordinated through transportation agreements. The City has an existing transportation agreement with the County to use the Spring Valley Trunk sewer (shown in green). City’s Current Trunk Sewer Network Page 517 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 210 Sewer Funds Fund Descriptions Fund 411: Sewer Income Fund This fund is used to account for all revenues collected to recover the City’s costs incurred constructing the public wastewater system. The funds are collected from new properties receiving a permit to connect to the City’s wastewater collection system. The owner or person making the application for connection pays fees to the City as designated in the master fee schedule. Funds received are used for the acquisition, construction, reconstruction, maintenance and operation of sanitation or sewerage facilities, or to reimburse a subdivider or any person who has constructed sewer facilities benefiting other properties. The fund may also be used to reimburse the City for any expense incurred in connection with the construction and installation of any sewer facility including engineering work and acquisition of rights-of-way. Fund 413: Trunk Sewer Capital Reserve Fund The Trunk Sewer Capital Reserve Fund is used to account for the revenue derived from the sewer capacity charges or sewerage facility participation charges. The funds are collected from new properties or existing facilities to account for increases in sewer flow. Funds received may be used for the planning, design, or construction of sewerage collection or treatment or water reclamation purposes. Fund 414: Sewer Service Revenue Fund The Sewer Service Revenue Fund is used to account for monies collected from the monthly sewer service charge not going into the Sewer Facility Replacement Fund. Monies in this fund may be used for sewer-related activities. The primary use of these funds is the payment of the operations and maintenance of the system assets including City’s annual San Diego Metropolitan Sewer Capacity and Maintenance fees. It can also be used to meet capital and planning needs Fund 428: Sewer Facility Replacement Fund A portion of the revenues derived from the monthly sewer service charge is deposited into the Sewerage Facilities Replacement Fund. Monies in this fund are used for the purpose of paying the cost of refurbishment and/or replacement of deficient sewerage facilities including related evaluation, engineering, and utility modification costs Funds 430: Sewer Development Impact Fee Funds These fees are levied against new development in specific areas of the City, based upon the sewer facility their project will impact. The monies collected are used to fund construction of public improvements designed to increase the capacity of the subject facilities, allowing the City to maintain service levels with increased demand. A portion of the revenues derived from the monthly sewer service charge is deposited into the Sewerage Facilities Replacement Fund. Monies in this fund are used for the purpose of paying the cost of refurbishment and/or replacement of deficient sewerage facilities including related evaluation, engineering, and utility modification costs to increase the capacity of the subject facilities, allowing the City to maintain service levels with increased demand Revenues The Sewer Fund derives the majority of its revenue from various service charges that are collected from system users. This fund also derives revenues from other sources such as permit fees for new connections to the sewer system, interest earnings from investments, development impact fees, transfers from other funds designated to support Sewer fund operations. Other revenues include revenue reimbursements from other City funds and various service charges. To ensure the future adequacy of the Sewer Funds, the City Council adopted the sewer rate case study that set the new sewer rates, which went into effect April 26, 2022 upon adoption and remains in effect through fiscal year 2026. Previously, the rates had not changed since July 1, 2018 and with the adoption of the new rates, increases began on July 1, 2022. One issue of continued importance is the sewage treatment costs through the City of San Diego. The Page 518 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 211 Sewer Funds recent permit required for treatment was renewed on the condition of implementation of a regional wastewater reuse program, Pure Water Program, which includes significant capital investments. The adopted sewer rate case study allows for increases or decreases in the costs from the City of San Diego to be adjusted annually to ensure more accuracy. To ensure the long-term adequacy of the Sewer Fund, the City Council previously adopted a sewer rate case study that established updated sewer rates, effective April 26, 2022, and remaining in place through fiscal year 2026. The City is currently undertaking an updated sewer rate study to evaluate future funding needs and inform potential rate adjustments beyond FY 2026; however, the impacts of this study are not yet known. At this time, the adopted sewer rates will remain unchanged. Once the study is complete, and results will be brought forward to the City Council for review and discussion. Sewage treatment services provided by the City of San Diego continue to be a significant cost for the City. Recent permit renewals for treatment are tied to implementation of the regional wastewater reuse initiative, the Pure Water Program, which requires substantial capital investment. The adopted rate structure includes a mechanism to adjust annually for changes in treatment costs from the City of San Diego, helping maintain accuracy and alignment with actual expenditures. Revenues for the Sewer Income Fund (Fund 411), the Trunk Sewer Capital Reserve Fund (Fund 413), the Sewer Service Revenue Fund (Fund 414) and the Sewer Facility Replacement Fund (Fund 428) are summarized in the following table: Sewer Fund Revenues Category FY 2026 Adopted FY 2027 Proposed Change % Change Licenses and Permits $ 40,000 $ 40,000 $ - 0.00% Charges for Services $ 53,441,374 $ 59,215,153 $ 5,773,779 0.11% Use of Money and Property $ 1,257,726 $ 1,867,726 $ 610,000 0.49% Other Revenues $ 133,133 $ 133,133 $ - 0.00% Transfers In $ 198,000 $ 150,000 $ (48,000) -0.24% Total Revenues $ 55,070,233 $ 61,406,012 $ 6,335,779 0.12% Note: Revenue amounts include Sewer Operating Funds: 411, 413, 414, and 428. Note that Fund 430 is not included. Expenditures Sewer Fund operations and capital project programming contain no General Fund contributions. Sewer fund operations and capital programming costs are offset by fees paid by residential and non-residential users. In addition, other revenue sources generated within the Sewer Fund through normal operations fund 42.0 permanent positions that are contained in the fiscal year 2027 Proposed Budget. The City continues to focus on its Annual Sewer Rehabilitation Program, which averages approximately $2.5M annually for the replacement and rehabilitation of sewer pipes, manholes, lift stations, access roads, and other sewer system components. The City utilizes standardized evaluation and ranking criteria to inspect and evaluate the condition of the entire system to prioritize sewer infrastructure for replacement or rehabilitation. City staff expenditures incurred supporting wastewater system maintenance and operations are funded by the Sewer Funds through a combination of direct expenditures and inter-fund transfers. Positions 100% funded by Sewer Funds are budgeted directly in the Sewer Funds. The remaining support staff is budgeted in either the General or Development Services Funds. These position costs are partially offset via inter-fund transfers. All supplies, services and utilities budgets associated with supporting the wastewater system are also budgeted in the Sewer Service Fund in fiscal year 2027.

The Fleet Management fund consists of two primary functions: Central Garage Operations and Equipment Replacement. Funding is transferred from each affected department’s operating budget to the Fleet Management Fund on a monthly basis. The Central Garage Operations function is responsible for maintaining the City’s fleet of vehicles and equipment. Maintenance is performed both by City mechanics and, when necessary, through contracts with specialized local vendors for complex repairs such as major transmission work. The Central Garage services all City vehicles and equipment, including those used by public safety, streets, sewers, parks, open space, development services, housing and library. Services provided include vehicle maintenance and repair, fuel management, vehicle replacement, and other specialized services not tied to a specific vehicle. With the approval of Measure P, Fleet has accelerated the replacement of aging vehicles that had reached the end of their useful life. This increased pace of replacement has generated additional workload, particularly in ordering and upfitting vehicles, compared to prior years. However, the new vehicles are expected to reduce maintenance costs and improve reliability for service delivery. Fleet has also recently upgraded its fleet management software, which tracks work order and repair history, as well as its fuel management system used to track fuel usage. As part of the City’s efforts to reduce greenhouse emissions, the fleet includes 50 Electric Vehicles (EVs), 78 Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEVs), and 16 Plug-In Hybrids Electric Vehicles (PHEVs), along with the necessary charging infrastructure to support their operation. These vehicles help lower maintenance costs while reducing environmental impact and currently represent approximately 23 percent of the City’s total fleet. Revenues Revenues in the Fleet Fund are generated from departments that utilize City vehicles and equipment through maintenance charges. These charges are based on the specific vehicles assigned to each department and cover a range of costs, from routine services such as oil changes and preventive maintenance to major repairs, including transmission and accident-related work, as well as fuel expenses. Over the past nine years, most vehicle replacement costs have been funded through Measure P sales tax revenues. However, funding allocated from the Measure P Sales Tax Fund for non-public safety vehicles is now fully encumbered. Approximately $1.4 million is included in the fiscal year 2027 Proposed Budget for the replacement of public safety vehicles through the Measure P Sales Tax Fund. In addition, $3.0 million is allocated for the replacement of vehicles within the Sewer Fund. For fiscal year 2027, proposed Fleet Fund revenues total $6.5 million. The increase compared to the fiscal year 2026 Adopted Budget reflects growth in the size of the fleet, as well as higher operating costs, including fuel and vehicle maintenance Page 525 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 218 Fleet Fund Fleet Fund Revenues Category FY 2026 Adopted FY 2027 Proposed Change % Change Charges for Services $ 85,000 $ 85,000 $ - -% Transfers In $ 1,077,524 $ 937,540 $ (139,984) (13.0%) Other Revenues $ 5,958,205 $ 6,178,295 $ 220,090 3.7% Total Revenues $ 7,120,729 $ 7,200,835 $ 80,106 1.1% Expenditures Fleet Fund expenditures include the costs to maintain City vehicles, as well as to service and repair equipment such as mowers, generators, equipment trailers across the City. As noted in the revenue summary, these costs are allocated back to departments based on factors including the number of vehicles and equipment assigned, repair history, and fuel usage. The fiscal year 2027 Proposed Budget for Fleet Management expenditures is $6.5 million. This funding supports resources needed to sustain operations, including vehicle and equipment servicing, repairs, and fuel for the City’s fleet.

The goal of the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is to provide for the sustainable preservation of City-owned assets at the lowest cost and to leverage financial strategies to address infrastructure needs within a prioritized framework, which includes an assessment of the asset’s condition, capacity to meet service demands, probability of failure, maintenance and preservation strategies, and funding availability. The CIP is a living document used to identify current and future requirements and the basis for determining annual capital budget expenditures. The CIP document can be found in its entirety on the City’s website. To follow is a summary of the document Capital Improvement Projects are defined as capital investments with a value of $50,000 or more and a minimum useful life of 5 years at a fixed location. Equipment, operating, and maintenance costs are budgeted in the City’s operating budget. New maintenance costs are included in the CIP budget and appropriated in future operating budget cycles The CIP document provides the capital project budget detail and reporting by asset management category, funding, and location. This format better aids the decision-making process as it allows the City Council to review projects recommended in each asset management system, gain an understanding of the condition of the asset in relation to the overall system and the basis for the recommendation, as well as the availability of funding sources. The proposed projects’ detail sheets within each asset management system provide a description, location, project intent, type of project, link to the strategic goals, and funding requirements over the life of the project. CIP Process The Engineering and Capital Projects Department annually prepares a Capital Improvement Budget for the City Council’s approval. The process of developing the Capital Improvement Program is quite extensive and includes participation from each division of the department including Advance Planning, Project Delivery (Design/Survey), Traffic Engineering, Advanced Transportation Technologies & Maintenance, Inspection Services, Stormwater Management, Building Construction, Wastewater Management, and Fiscal Sustainability. Project proposals are submitted by these divisions and by other City departments such as Public Works, Fire, Police, Library, Development Services, and Community Services. The cooperation and diligence of each participating group is a critical component of the program’s quality and success. The CIP budget includes an estimated five-year Capital Improvement Program, which gives the public and City Council an idea of what infrastructure needs are projected in the future. This also allows the City to begin planning and identifying possible funding options to repair and/or replace infrastructure assets. The City is faced with the challenge of managing a range of aging infrastructure assets that are critical to maintaining an aging City while serving new development. Making sound decisions about asset maintenance and replacement requires detailed information about the assets’ expected life cycle, probability of failure, and capacity to meet the ongoing requirements necessary to sustain the system The CIP Program is a planning tool the City uses to identify and manage the City’s capital needs and priorities. As such, amendments are presented to Council throughout the year to address any changes in priority and/or emergency infrastructure repairs. On a continuous basis, project proposals are added to the City’s capital improvement budget and project management database. These proposals are based on recommendations from “guiding documents” (see list below) adopted by the City Council as well as condition assessments performed by staff from the Engineering Capital Projects and Public Works Departments. Page 571 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 Capital Improvement Program CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM SUMMARY 264 The process of establishing the annual CIP includes ranking proposals and projects, by reviewing the scopes, preliminary cost estimates, locations, and feasibility of each proposal. Projects are placed in order with the highest ranked receiving top priority, based on the following categories: City Needs – Does the proposal address an existing need, problem and/or safety concern? City Benefit – Does the proposal provide a benefit citywide or for a specific area? Does the proposal link to one of the City’s Strategic Goals? Regulatory Concerns, Implementation Pathways – Is the proposal feasible based on time and cost necessary to meet federal, state and City regulations? Methodology – Is the proposed scope and location consistent with a “guiding document” (see list below)? Funding Limitations/Availability – Does the proposal require funding from the General Fund? Is the proposal fully or partially funded by grant funds? Depending upon the availability of funding, lower ranked proposals may not be funded; however, unfunded proposals will remain on the Unfunded Proposals List to be addressed as resources become available. Another tool used in ranking and formulating the CIP recommendations are “guiding documents” approved by the City Council. “Guiding Documents” are used in the ranking process to ensure proposed CIP projects are consistent with established program priorities and determine whether the project description fits within a specific master plan i.e., Pedestrian Master Plan). The ”guiding documents” also provide more insight on the planned project details. Typically, the development of these “guiding documents” includes a large public outreach element as described in the Public Input/Community Involvement section below. The following is a partial list of “guiding documents”, which have included public input from multiple stakeholders in the community. Active Transportation (Bikeway & Pedestrian) Plan Asset Management Plan Bayfront TDIF Program Downtown Chula Vista Parking Management Plan Drainage Master Plan Environmental Mitigation Program F Street Promenade Streetscape Master Plan Fire Master Plan General Plan Habitat Conservation / Multiple Species Conservation Plan (MSCP) Main Street Streetscape Master Plan Parks & Recreation Master Plan Parks Master Plan Street Saver Condition Index Database Traffic Monitoring Program Wastewater Master Plan Western TDIF Program Operational Impact of Capital Projects Projects included in the City’s Capital Improvement Plan and Budget typically focus on addressing existing infrastructure needs and typically do not have a substantial impact on operational costs. However, when new facilities Page 572 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 Capital Improvement Program CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM SUMMARY 265 such as fire stations, libraries, parks, and/or recreation centers are planned that have a significant operational impact, projected costs will be reflected in the City’s General Fund Long-Term Financial Plan (LTFP), issued annually. Additionally, staffing, building maintenance, equipment maintenance, and utility costs associated with these facilities would be approved as part of the annual Budget Process. As a result, these costs would be specified within the budget document and identified under the Significant Budget Adjustments and Service Impact sections of the General Fund Department Summary Reports for Fire, Library, Parks and Recreation or other respective departments. Public Input/Community Involvement As mentioned, the “guiding documents” included public input and involvement from multiple stakeholders. Throughout the development of a “guiding document”, a community engagement process is conducted in two phases and located in both eastern and western Chula Vista. During Phase 1, the outreach focuses on existing conditions. Several workshop sessions and booths at local civic events are scheduled with community stakeholder groups so that valuable local insight to existing conditions and desired infrastructure requests can be discussed and defined. Phase 2 focuses on soliciting feedback on the proposed networks and community priorities. Additional workshop sessions are scheduled to discuss progress made on refining proposed recommendations and priority or policy decisions needed to work towards a final scope and plan of action. Once the final draft of the “guiding document” is completed, the document is brought before any of the relevant Boards, Commissions, Associations, and/or Civic Groups for their review before it is brought for approval and adoption by City Council. Continuous public input throughout the development of these “guiding documents” is maintained including web-based and map-based questionnaires, and electronic opinion surveys hosted on the City’s website. Furthermore, the public is provided notice of upcoming Boards & Commission Meetings and City Council Public Hearings. Typical summary of public outreach includes: Community event booths for public to provide comments Workshop sessions held at public library sites closest to project Website surveys conducted during initial & final draft phases of project Consultant outreach programs & mailouts during development of project Presentations at Board & Commission Meetings prior to City Council adoption Final draft presentation at City Council Public Hearings The City continuously works with local community-based groups, healthcare organizations, faith-based groups, senior groups, commissions, home-owner associations, chamber of commerce, non-profit organizations, and other stakeholders in the community such as: Southwest Civic Association – citizen group interested in infrastructure needs within southwestern Chula Vista Crossroads II – citizen group interested in new development projects as they progress through the Planning Commission’s and City Council’s approval process Bike Walk Chula Vista – citizen group interested in bicycle & pedestrian infrastructure needs and programs Chula Vista Elementary School District – organization interested in traffic calming and pedestrian safety measures near elementary schools Sweetwater Union High School District – organization interested in traffic calming and pedestrian safety measures near middle schools and high schools DCVA – business group interested in programs and redevelopment within the downtown Chula Vista area Page 573 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 Capital Improvement Program CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM SUMMARY 266 Budget Development Although a component of the City Manager’s overall budget, the CIP budget is developed separately by Engineering and Capital Projects staff on an annual basis. The CIP budget process runs parallel to the development process for the City’s operating budget, and they are subsequently presented together for City Council approval. On June 7, 2022, a public hearing was held for the City Council to consider and adopt an amendment to the TransNet Local Street Improvement Program of projects for fiscal years 2023 through 2027. Public comment is a vital component of the “guiding documents” and the CIP process. The public also had the opportunity to comment on the proposed CIP. The initial proposed capital improvement project detail sheets are posted annually in April of each year on the Engineering and Capital Projects website for public comment and review: www.chulavistaca.gov/departments/public-works/projects Additionally, the Engineering and Capital Projects Department publishes an annual proposed CIP budget. The document will be made available at the City Clerk’s Office, the Civic Center Library, Otay Ranch Mall Library, and the South Chula Vista Library. The proposed program reaffirms the City’s commitment to identify resources to move us toward long-term sustainability of our City’s current assets as well as new improvements that accommodate growth. The City will continue to collaborate with regional agencies, such as the Port, SANDAG, and Caltrans, to ensure that the needs of our City residents are met, taking into account the unique characteristics of our City and recognizing our role as the County’s second largest City and a leader in the South Bay Page 574 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda CIP REVENUE SUMMARY Page 575 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda Page 576 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 Capital Improvement Program CIP REVENUE SUMMARY 269 Gas Tax: 28.92%Gas Tax: 28.92%Gas Tax: 28.92% Parking Meter Fund: 0.50%Parking Meter Fund: 0.50%Parking Meter Fund: 0.50% Sunbow Park Benefit Fees: 11.19%Sunbow Park Benefit Fees: 11.19%Sunbow Park Benefit Fees: 11.19% Western Area TDIF: 3.61%Western Area TDIF: 3.61%Western Area TDIF: 3.61% Highway SafetyImprovementHighwaySafetyImprovement Program Grant: 4.36%Program Grant: 4.36% Highway Safety Improvement Program Grant: 4.36% Active Transportation Grant: 0.66%Active Transportation Grant: 0.66%Active Transportation Grant: 0.66% Measure P Sales Tax: 10.32%Measure P Sales Tax: 10.32%Measure P Sales Tax: 10.32% Sewer Facility Replacement: 11.73%Sewer Facility Replacement: 11.73%Sewer Facility Replacement: 11.73% TransNet: 27.22%TransNet: 27.22%TransNet: 27.22% FY 2026 Capital Improvement Plan by Fund Source Fund Source Percentage Amount Gas Tax 28.92% $ 11,670,624 Measure P Sales Tax 10.32% $ 4,166,469 Sewer Facility Replacement 11.73% $ 4,735,000 Strom Drain Fund 1.49% $ 600,000 TransNet 27.22% $ 10,985,500 Parking Meter Fund 0.50% $ 200,000 Sunbow Park Benefit Fees 11.19% $ 4,518,000 Wester Area TDIF 3.61% $ 1,456,773 Highway Safety Improvement Program Grant 4.36% $ 1,760,310 Active Transportation Grant 0.66% $ 266,000 Total: 100% $ 40,358,676 CIP Revenue Summary The Capital Improvement Program is supported by several funding sources. City staff continuously explore opportunities to diversify revenue and leverage funding for infrastructure improvements. The following chart and table summarize the funding sources for the fiscal year 2027 CIP budget. Fiscal Year 2027 CIP by Funding Source Page 577 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 Capital Improvement Program CIP REVENUE SUMMARY 270 The Capital Improvement Budget is primarily supported by Transportation Sales Tax (TransNet), Gas Tax/RMRA Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account), and Measure P funds. Chula Vista voters approved Measure P a temporary, 10-year, half-cent sales tax to fund high priority infrastructure needs. TransNet is the largest stable source of revenues for Capital Improvement projects. Along with TransNet, Gas Tax/RMRA funds continue to provide a steady source of revenue for street related projects. Other major revenues in this year’s budget include federal grant funding from the Highway Bridge Program (HBP) and Sewer Facility Replacement funds for ongoing capital improvement projects. Competitive grant revenue sources remain steady with grant revenue growth opportunities in the imminent future. Transportation grants include the Active Transportation Program and Federal Highway Safety Improvement Program. The following is a brief description of key funding sources which support the City’s Capital Improvement Budget: Development Impact Fees Traffic Signal Fee The Traffic Signal Fee is a trip-based development impact fee that is charged with the issuance of building permits for new construction. The fee can be utilized for the installation and upgrade of traffic signals throughout the City. No Traffic Signal DIF funding is programmed in fiscal year 2027. Transportation Development Impact Fee (TDIF) The City’s TDIF Program was established on January 12, 1988, by Ordinance 2251 for the collection of development impact fees to be used to construct transportation facilities to accommodate increased traffic generated by new development within the City’s eastern territories. No TDIF funding is programmed as part of the fiscal year 2027 CIP. Western Transportation Development Impact Fee (WTDIF) The City’s WTDIF Program was established on March 18, 2008, by Ordinances 3106 through 3110. This program is similar to the Eastern Transportation Development Impact Fee (TDIF) Program, which was established on January 12, 1988. In 2014, it was determined that the Bayfront, previously included in the WTDIF, be removed and a new DIF area covering only the Bayfront be established. The fiscal year 2027 CIP program WTDIF projects include $456,773 for the Bayshore Bikeway Segment 6A project and $1,000,000 for the F Street Promenade Phase 1 project. Telegraph Canyon Development Impact Fee The City’s Telegraph Canyon DIF was established on August 7, 1990, by Ordinance 2384 for collection of development impact fees to be used to construct drainage and channel improvements for the Telegraph Canyon Basin. No Telegraph Canyon DIF funds are programmed in the fiscal year 2027 CIP. Public Facilities Development Impact Fees The Public Facilities Development Impact Fee (PFDIF) is levied against new development throughout the City to mitigate the impacts of growth on the City’s public services. The monies collected are used in the construction of new, and renovation of existing public facilities. No PFDIF funding is programmed as part of the fiscal year 2027 CIP. Grants California Active Transportation Grant Program The Legislature created the Active Transportation Program (ATP) in 2013 to encourage increased use of active modes of transportation, such as biking and walking. The ATP consolidates existing federal and state transportation programs – including the Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP), Bicycle Transportation Account (BTA), and Safe Routes to School (SR2S) – into a single program with a focus to make California a national leader in active transportation. ATP Cycle 6 was announced in early 2022 and included about $440 million of Federal, State SB1, and State Highway (SHA) funding. The funding/programming years for ATP Cycle 6 include FY23/24, 24/25, 25/26, and 26/27. Regionally, $61.9 million was available and Chula Vista received approximately 21%, or $12.8 million for two projects. Therefore, $12.8 million in ATP grant funds were programmed in the fiscal year 2024 CIP Program for two ATP projects: F Street Promenade - Phase 1 (Bay Blvd to Broadway) and the Bayshore Bikeway - Segment 6A (E Page 578 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 Capital Improvement Program CIP REVENUE SUMMARY 271 Street to Lagoon Dr.). ATP funds programmed as part of the fiscal year 2027 CIP include $266,000 allocated to the Anita Street and Industrial Boulevard Bicycle and Pedestrian Improvements project TransNet Active Transportation Grant Program (San Diego Region) The TransNet Active Transportation Grant Program (ATGP) is also funded with Transportation Development Act TDA) funds. The grant program encourages local jurisdictions to plan and build facilities that promote multiple travel choices and increase connectivity to transit, schools, retail centers, parks work, and other community gathering places. It also encourages agencies to provide bike parking, education, encouragement, and awareness programs that support pedestrian and bike infrastructure. There are no ATGP grant funds programmed as part of the fiscal year 2027 CIP Program. Community Development Block Grant Funds Each year, the City receives approximately $2.4 million in Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds. Of this amount approximately $1.3 million is available for community development activities, which include capital improvement projects. In 2006, the City of Chula Vista received a CDBG Section 108 loan in the amount of $9.5 million for the completion of the Castle Park Infrastructure Projects. While the project has been completed, the City continues to allocate funding for the annual debt service payments of approximately $650,000 annually. This reduces the amount of CDBG funds available for other capital projects to approximately $0.3 - $0.5 million annually for the next few years. No CDBG funds are programmed as part of the fiscal year 2027 CIP Program. Highway Bridge Program The Highway Bridge Program (HBP) provides federal funding to help states improve the condition of their highway bridges through replacement, rehabilitation, and systematic preventive maintenance of deficient bridge structures. The City of Chula Vista has received HBP funding for two major bridge replacement projects: “Willow Street Bridge Widening (STL0261)” and “Heritage Road Bridge Replacement (STM0386)”. The original Willow Street bridge was constructed in 1940 and was determined that it was infeasible to rehabilitate. Funding for full replacement was approved by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and Caltrans, which administers the HBP Grant Program in California. The project was completed in November 2020, and features a 610-foot arched bridge with four traffic lanes, 8-foot shoulders (bike lanes), and 5.5-foot sidewalks. The Willow Street Bridger Widening project received approximately $30 million in HBP funds. While now complete, the Willow project remains a key milestone in the City’s infrastructure investment strategy. The existing four-lane bridge at Heritage Road was constructed in 1993 as an interim facility using FEMA emergency funding after severe flooding destroyed the original two-lane river crossing. The current structure is considered Functionally Obsolete (FO), unable to handle peak traffic volumes, lacks pedestrian access and cannot convey the 50-year storm without being overtopped. In 2014, the Heritage Road Bridge Replacement Project was accepted into the HBP. FHWA and Caltrans approved full replacement due to the high cost and limited benefit of rehabilitation. As of March 2026, the project has secured 42 million in HBP grant funding for preliminary engineering, right-of-way acquisition, construction engineering, construction. Additional construction includes $17.5 million in TDIF funds, and a $2 million contribution from the City of San Diego. Status: All required environmental permits have been secured. Construction was awarded in October 2024 and began in December 2024. Completion is anticipated by Summer 2027. No new HBP funding is programmed in fiscal year 2027 for the Heritage Road Bridge Replacement project.

There are approximately $1.8 million in HSIP Grant funds programmed as part of the fiscal year 2027 CIP. Neighborhood Reinvestment Program The Neighborhood Reinvestment Program (NEP) provides grant funds to County departments, public agencies, and to non-profit community organizations for one-time community, social, environmental, educational, cultural or recreational needs. No NEP funds are programmed in the fiscal year 2027 CIP. Smart Growth Incentive Program Grant The TransNet Smart Growth Initiative Program (SGIP) provides funding for transportation-related infrastructure improvements and planning efforts that support smart growth development in Smart Growth Opportunity Areas as shown on the Smart Growth Concept Map (updated May 2016). The goal is to fund comprehensive public infrastructure projects and planning activities that facilitate compact, mixed-use, transit-oriented development and increase housing and transportation choices. There are no SGIP funds programmed as part of the fiscal year 2027 CIP. Rubberized Pavement Grant Program The California Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) provides the Rubberized Pavement Grant Program to promote markets for recycled-content surfacing products derived from waste tires generated in California and decrease the adverse environmental impacts created by unlawful disposal and stockpiling of waste tires. Rubberized Asphalt Concrete (RAC) is a proven road paving material that has been used in California since the 1970s. Under the Pavement Grant Program, two project types are eligible for grant funding - RAC and Rubberized Chip Seal projects. No Rubberized Pavement Grant funds are programmed as part of the fiscal year 2027 CIP. Miscellaneous Funds General Fund The General Fund is the City’s main operating fund used to pay for City services. No General Fund monies are programmed as part of the fiscal year 2027 CIP. Capital improvement projects will be funded by the Measure P commitment Residential Construction Tax (RCT) The Residential Construction Tax (RCT) was established by the City Council in October 1971 to provide a more equitable distribution of the burden of financing parks, open spaces, public facilities, and other capital improvements, the need for which is created by the increasing population of the City. The RCT is applicable to all new residential units and paid by the person constructing the units. RCT funds are used to pay for debt service obligations resulting from the issuance of Certificates of Participation (COP’s) for western Chula Vista failing CMP repairs. No RCT funds are programmed as part of the fiscal year 2027 CIP. Capital Improvement Project Fund The Capital Improvement Fund was established to set aside monies for capital improvement projects. This fund does not generate revenues from any source except by transfer from other funds. Monies transferred to the fund are expended for budgeted capital improvement projects and monies remaining after completion of a project are transferred back to the fund from which the project was originally financed. No CIP funds are programmed as part of the fiscal year 2027 CIP. Park Acquisition and Development Fund The Park Acquisition and Development (PAD) fund is a depository for fees collected from subdividers for the purpose of providing park and recreational facilities directly benefiting and serving the residents of the regulated subdivisions Page 580 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 Capital Improvement Program CIP REVENUE SUMMARY 273 east and west of the 805. These funds are collected pursuant to Chapter 17.10 of the Chula Vista Municipal Code, in accordance with authority granted by Section 66477 of the California Government Code. No PAD funds are programmed as part of the fiscal year 2027 CIP. Sunbow Park Benefit Fee In January of 2020 a Community Benefit Agreement (CBA) was signed between the City and ACI Sunbow, LLC, the developer of the City’s 600-acre master-planned Sunbow Community. Under this CBA ACI Sunbow’s PAD requirements were waived and instead satisfied through the establishment of a separate Park Benefit Fee, equal to the PAD fees that would have been incurred for the Sunbow development. In 2020 this fee for the Sunbow development was estimated to be approximately $15 million. The Park Benefit Fees may be utilized by the City to acquire or develop parkland and recreational facilities anywhere in the City. Approximately $4.5 million in Sunbow Park Fees are programmed as part of the fiscal year 2027 CIP. Chula Vista Municipal Golf Course This Chula Vista Municipal Golf Course fund is an enterprise fund used to account for the operations of the municipal golf course. As a business-type activity, the fund is intended to recover its costs through user fees and charges for services. Revenues support the golf course’s operations, maintenance, and facility improvements, ensuring continued recreational opportunities for the community. No funding is programmed as part of the fiscal year 2027 CIP. Voter Approved Funds Proposition 1B Highway Funds In 2007, the voters of the State of California approved Proposition 1B. This proposition included funds to be provided to cities within the State for local roadway improvements. The initial allocation of $3.6 million was spent on pavement rehabilitation projects in fiscal year 2011. The second allocation of $3.3 million was frozen by the State of California due to the State’s financial crisis and released in late April 2010 in monthly installments. As a result, the State provided an additional year of expenditure for Prop 1B funds received in fiscal year 2010. The City spent the second allocation of Prop 1B funds prior to June 2014. Gas Tax/RMRA The state of California imposes per-gallon excise taxes on gasoline and diesel fuel, sales taxes on gasoline and diesel fuel and registration taxes on motor vehicles with allocations dedicated to transportation purposes. These allocations flow through the Highway Users Tax Account (HUTA), the familiar gasoline tax revenues that have been in place for decades, and the Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account which allocates much of the revenue from the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017 (SB1 Beall). The SB1 Beall is a significant investment in California’s transportation systems. The Act increases per gallon fuel excise taxes, diesel fuel sales taxes and vehicle registration taxes, stabilizes the problematic price-based fuel tax rates and provides for inflationary adjustments to rates in future years. The Act significantly increased local streets and road funds allocated through the Highway Users Tax Account, allocating funds from new taxes through the “Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (RMRA). In fiscal year 2027, the Gas Tax-RMRA budget is approximately $11.6 million for pavement rehabilitation and maintenance based on the City’s Pavement Management System. Transportation Sales Tax Transportation Sales Tax (TransNet) funds are derived from sales tax revenues levied in San Diego County that are collected by the State specifically for use on transportation related projects in San Diego County. The regional metropolitan planning agency, San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG), programs these funds to municipalities within San Diego County. Revenues vary from year-to-year, depending on the amount of sales tax available to the region and the number and costs of projects for which municipalities, local transit, and Caltrans request funding. The revenue approved for municipalities is based on the specific cost estimates that are required to be submitted as part of the annual request for funding. The TransNet Extension Ordinance states that at least 70% of the funds allocated to local agencies for local road projects should be used to fund Congestion Relief (CR) projects. CR projects include the construction of new or expanded facilities, major rehabilitation and reconstruction Page 581 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 Capital Improvement Program CIP REVENUE SUMMARY 274 of roadways, traffic signalization, transportation infrastructure to support smart growth, capital improvements for transit facilities, and operating support for local shuttle and circulator transit routes. No more than 30% of TransNet funds allocated to local agencies are expected to be used for local street and road maintenance. In the fiscal year 2027 CIP, the TransNet budget is approximately $10.9 million. Measure P On August 2, 2016, the City Council approved Ordinance 3371 modifying the Municipal Code to establish a temporary one-half cent General Transactions and Use Tax if approved by the voters. As part of the action to approve the Ordinance, the City Council approved a spending plan described as the Intended Infrastructure, Facilities and Equipment Expenditure Plan, which identified how the funds were to be allocated. On November 8, 2016, Chula Vista voters approved Measure P, authorizing the one-half cent sales tax increase on retail sales within the City for a period of ten (10) years. The Finance Department created the 2016 Measure P Sales Tax Fund for the purpose of monitoring all revenues and expenditures of Measure P funds. All expenditures of Measure P funds will be tracked and accounted for by the Finance Department in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and presented annually in a report to the Citizens’ Oversight Committee (COC). Approximately $4.2 million in Measure P funds are programmed as part of the fiscal year 2027 CIP. In November 2024 voters approved a renewal of Measure P funding to continue through 2037. The City will utilize future Measure P funds for pavement repair, upgrading aging public facilities, and improving traffic signal operation. Sewer Funds Sewer Service Revenue The Special Sewer fund is used to account for the sale of the City’s excess Metropolitan Sewerage Capacity. While no Sewer Revenue funds are programmed in the fiscal year 2027 CIP, the fund continues to support strategic sewer- related initiatives. In fiscal year 2025 $250,000 in Special Service funds were allocated to support the Sewer Cost of Service (Rate) Study, a five-year evaluation designed to ensure that sewer service charges adequately cover the costs to operate and maintain the City’s sewer system. The study typically requires 6-12 months to complete, followed by an estimated six month implementation. Trunk Sewer Capital Reserve The Trunk Sewer Capital Reserve Fund is a permit fee-based revenue source received from the owner or person applying for a permit to develop or modify the use of any residential, commercial, industrial, or other property that may increase the volume of flow in the City’s sewer system. The funds may be used for: (1) to repair, replace or enlarge trunk sewer facilities to enhance efficiency of utilization and/or adequacy of capacity to serve the needs of the City, or 2) to plan and/or evaluate any future proposals for area-wide sewage treatment and/or water reclamations systems and facilities. No Truck Sewer Capital Reserve funds are programmed in the fiscal year 2027 CIP. Sewer Facility Replacement Fund The Sewer Facility Replacement Fund is a fee-based revenue source that all properties pay each month as part of their sewer bills. The funds can be utilized to replace, rehabilitate or upgrade existing sewer facilities. Approximately 4.7 million in Sewer Facility Replacement funds are programmed in the fiscal year 2027 CIP. Sewer Development Impact Fee Funds These fees are levied against new development in specific areas of the City, based upon the sewer facility their project will impact. The monies collected are used to fund construction of public improvements designed to increase the capacity of the subject facilities, allowing the City to maintain service levels with increased demand. Included DIF programs are the Telegraph Canyon Sewer Basin DIF, the Poggi Canyon Sewer Basin DIF, and the Salt Creek Sewer Basin DIF. No Sewer DIF funds are programmed in the fiscal year 2027 CIP. Storm Drain Fund Storm Drain Fund Page 582 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 Capital Improvement Program CIP REVENUE SUMMARY 275 Revenues for the Storm Drain fund come from monthly service fees charged to property owners and are dedicated exclusively to stormwater-related activities. These funds support the City’s efforts to comply with the Federal Clean Water Act and the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit requirements, ensuring proper stormwater management, infrastructure maintenance, and environmental protection. Approximately $600,000 in Storm Drain funds are programmed in the fiscal year 2027 CIP.

The estimated five-year project summary report is included at the end of this Capital Improvement Program (CIP) section. The CIP includes funding for projects and programs in various geographic areas of the City. The Proposed fiscal year 2027 capital expenditure budget is approximately 40.4 million. The forecasted five-year program is estimated at $124.5 million. The fiscal years 2027-2031 CIP program reflects the actions taken by Council and developed in accordance with Council adopted policies and guiding documents (such as and not limited to the City’s General Plan, Master Plans, Specific Plans and the Regional Transportation Plan) as well as generally accepted accounting principles. Overall, the 5-year program continues to trend favorably. Despite broader economic challenges and fiscal constraints, the City has maintained steady funding commitments across critical infrastructure priorities, ensuring sustained progress and long-term stability. Projects in this year’s Capital Improvement Budget have been sorted by the nine-asset management systems identified in the City’s Fiscal Recovery Plan and the Infrastructure Workshop with the City Council. This provides a mechanism to track CIP allocations by Asset Management System (AMS). The nine AMS’s include the following: The Roadway Management System (RMS) is comprised of all City-owned assets in the Public Right-of-Way. These assets include: Major and Local Streets, Sidewalks, Traffic Signals & Striping, Bicycle and Pedestrian paths, ADA Ramps and Curbs and Gutters. The Wastewater Management System (WMS) is comprised of Sewer Pump Stations, Rehabilitation and related projects The Drainage Management System (DMS) is comprised of Citywide storm drain facilities. The Building Management System (BMS) is comprised of City-owned facilities including the Civic Center, Fire Stations, Libraries, Police Station, Recreation Centers, and community facilities such as Rohr Manor and the Woman’s Club. The Parks Management System (PMS) is comprised of the citywide park system. The Open Space Management System (OSMS) is comprised of the Open Space Districts and Community Facility Districts (CFDs).

The FY 2027 CIP includes two new Major Streets projects focused on citywide pavement rehabilitation and reconstruction. These efforts reflect the City’s continued investment in extending the life of key roadway corridors and improving long-term drivability across the arterial network. Local Streets Approximately $1 million is programmed for the annual Pavement Maintenance and Pavement Repair Programs which are designed to extend street life by 7-10 years. Over $6.6 million is planned for projects associated with curb, gutter, sidewalk, pedestrian, and Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) pedestrian ramp improvements throughout the City. Traffic Approximately $2.85 million is programmed for the Traffic Calming Program, Traffic Signal System Optimization, Traffic Signal and Streetlight Systems Upgrade and Modification Program, Neighborhood Traffic & Pedestrian Safety Program, Adaptive Traffic Signal System, and other traffic related programs. A total of $3.7 million is programmed in FY 2027 for various traffic safety and operational improvements throughout the City. This includes upgrades to traffic signals, pedestrian beacons, intersection modifications, median enhancements, and updates to engineering and traffic surveys. The FY 2027 programming for traffic projects includes the creationof four new CIP projects, which provide for intersection improvements at L Street and Industrial Boulevard, emergency vehicle pre-emption signal upgrades to support faster and safer response times, a mid-block pedestrian crossing near Valle Lindo Elementary School to enhance student safety, and the modernization of street name signs to improve visibility and compliance with current safety standards. These improvements aim to enhance roadway efficiency, pedestrian safety, and accessibility, while supporting the City’s broader goals for a safe and well-managed transportation network. Wastewater Management System (WMS) Sewer The appropriation for the Wastewater Management System (WMS) is $4.7 million, which represents about 11.7311.73% of the total fiscal year 2027 CIP budget. This funding supports five new sewer infrastructure projects focused on rehabilitation, condition assessment, and system monitoring. The fiscal year 2027 CIP program for sewer projects includes $500,000 for the Sewer Main Rehabilitation FY 2027 project, which will repair and renew priority segments of the collection system. An additional $125,000 is programmed for the City’s wastewater infrastructure planning program.The City will also invest $400,000 in the rehabilitation of deteriorated sewer maintenance holes to ensure structural integrity, and $150,000 to install semi-permanent monitoring equipment throughout the collection system, enhancing early detection of potential failures. Separate allocations to sewer projects at specific locations include $60,000 for the F Street Sewer Study, $500,000 for the Third Avenue Sewer Extension, and $3,000,000 for the Poggi Canyon Sewer Improvements on Olympic Parkway at Concord Way. These investments are aligned with the City’s Wastewater Master Plan, which provides long-range guidance for sewer system improvements to meet capacity, regulatory, and operational goals as the community grows and infrastructure ages A complement to the Wastewater Master Plan is the Wastewater Asset Management Plan (WAMP) focusing on existing infrastructure. The WAMP utilizes condition assessments already completed or underway to establish a priority level for rehabilitations/replacements to ensure reliability of facilities. $60,000 in funding under the F Street Sewer Study is programmed for the WAMP as part of the fiscal year 2027 CIP Page 589 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 Capital Improvement Program CIP EXPENDITURE SUMMARY 282 Drainage Management System (DMS) Drainage The total appropriation for Drainage Management System (DMS) projects is approximately $600,000, representing 1.49% of the total fiscal year 2027 CIP budget. The FY 2027 Capital Improvement Program includes projects that support condition assessments, permitting, and the rehabilitation of critical storm drain infrastructure across the City No FY27 Gas Tax and TransNet funding is programmed to address corrugated metal pipe (CMP) in poor condition located within the public right-of-way. CMP segments outside the right-of-way, typically located within drainage easements and identified as being in critical or unknown condition, were previously funded through Measure P. No additional Measure P funding for CMP rehabilitation is included in the FY 2027 CIP. CMP in satisfactory condition will continue to be monitored as part of the City’s ongoing asset management practices and prioritized for rehabilitation or replacement in future CIP cycles as needs arise or as conditions worsen. This approach ensures that resources are directed where they are most urgently needed while maintaining oversight of the broader system to prevent unexpected failures. The Statewide Trash Amendments mandate that jurisdictions control the discharge of trash from Municipal Separate Storm Sewer Systems (MS4) into receiving waters. In response, the City has devised an Implementation Plan to meet these regulations, with a final compliance deadline set for fiscal year 2029. This plan entails the installation and perpetual maintenance of Full Capture Trash Best Management Practices (BMPs) within storm drains in targeted areas To outline the City’s approach to compliance with the Trash Amendments, City Council adopted Resolution 2017- 158, which delineates the adopted strategies and commitments. Project DRN0214 is a focal point of these efforts, with $175,000 allocated in previous years to prevent trash from infiltrating local creeks, rivers, and San Diego Bay. No additional funding is programmed for this project in the FY 2027 CIP. Building Management System (BMS) The appropriation for Building Management System (BMS) projects includes approximately $133,000 in Measure P funding as part of the Public Building and Repairs project (GGV0234), which will support repairs in City buildings citywide. An additional $1 million will be allocated for Renovations of the Ken Lee Building.The total BMS allocation represents 3.55% of the total fiscal year 2026 CIP budget. Additional funding provided by Measure P in preceding years supports several ongoing, multi-year projects focused on completing building repairs and replacing assets that have reached or surpassed their expected useful life. These projects encompass essential facilities such as Fire Stations, the Police Facility, Civic Center, South Libraries, and other public buildings. The allocated funds will ensure the maintenance and enhancement of these vital community assets Fleet Management System (FMS) There are no CIP projects associated with Fleet infrastructure. However, since the adoption of Measure P, approximately 36 million has been allocated towards replacing 171 non-public safety vehicles, 170 police vehicles, and 38 fire vehicles that had exceeded their recommended replacement period. Notably, Measure P funds have also facilitated the installation of electric charging stations at select municipal facilities, supporting the integration of new electric vehicles into the fleet. Other funds, such as Wastewater, Development Services, and Measure A, also fund vehicle replacement and/or new additions to the Fleet needed to meet service needs.

Measure P funds have been allocated for park infrastructure replacements and repairs associated with drinking fountains, irrigation controls, lights, picnic tables, benches, and similar amenities. Additionally, repairs may also include efforts to bring the City’s sports fields up to good standing. Open Space Management System (OSMS) The Open Space Districts and Community Facility Districts (CFD’s) were established with new subdivisions beginning in the 1980s. These funding mechanisms were established to ensure sustainable improvements in the natural and landscaped areas in and around the new developments. These fees were structured to allow incremental adjustment with inflation and have generally kept pace with the maintenance needs of the districts. There are no CIP projects associated with the Open Space Management System. Urban Forestry Management System (UFMS) The Urban Forestry Management System is responsible for monitoring the overall health of trees throughout the City, including street trees, park trees, and trees located on City property. The City continues to maintain City street trees to: Ensure ongoing traffic safety along City streets; Enhance the appearance and image of the City; Improve the air quality and the environment for City residents; and Clear right-of-way obstructions. Industry standard sets the ideal schedule for periodic tree trimming as follows: Palms need to be trimmed every 1 or 2 years. Non-palms are recommended to be trimmed every 3 5 years (eucalyptus and pine every 2 3 and broadleaf every 5 6). Based on an inventory of about 27,500 trees and using 5 years, the annual goal is to trim 5,500 trees. There are no CIP projects associated with the Urban Forestry Management System. General Government Management System (GGMS) The appropriations for General Government Management System (GGMS) projects is approximately $793,000, which represents 2% of the proposed CIP budget. General Government The City has approximately 164 Miles of aboveground electric distribution wires on arterial/collector streets (20A Program) and on local streets (20B Program) with an estimated cost to underground of $275 million. The Franchise Agreement with SDG&E Allocation is $2 million per year from 20A Funds and about 33 miles of arterial/collector streets qualify, but at a cost of about $134 million. Close to $40 million has been expended on underground projects since the 1990’s. As of Spring 2023, the City’s 20A fund allocation has a positive balance of approximately $12 million. Draw down on the balance is expected in 2023 as the design work for UUD # 141 is completed and the conversion work commences. On November 21, 2017, the City Council held a Public Hearing and formed the two Utility Undergrounding Districts UUD) for the F Street corridor: F Street from Bay Blvd. to Broadway (UUD # 141) - $3 million, and from Broadway to Fourth Avenue (UUD #142) - $1.6 million via Resolution 2017-216. Design work commenced with SDG&E on UUD 141 and the undergrounding of the utilities began in 2023. The cost estimate of UUD #141 was recently increased to $5.9 million to reflect current design plans and inflationary increases in construction costs. MTS also removed approximately 1,550 LF of railroad tracks, ties and ballast and repaved the center of F Street west of Broadway in August of 2019 at a cost of about $600,000. SDG&E began the conversion work for UUD # 141 on F street in 2023, which will be followed by the F Street Promenade Streetscape improvements funded with almost $10 million in Active Page 591 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 Capital Improvement Program CIP EXPENDITURE SUMMARY 284 Transportation Program Grant funds. The conversion work east of Broadway on UUD # 142 is anticipated to closely follow UUD #141 completion, but the CPUC has taken the decision to sunset the 20A Program as of December 31, 2022. It is unclear at this time if a new program will be created to continue utility undergrounding. Approximately $60,000 is programmed for advance planning associated with the Citywide CIP Program. Approximately $150,000 is programmed for the City’s Survey Records Maintenance project. Regional Projects The City of Chula Vista CIP includes funding for several planning level studies related to regional projects. Regional projects are predominantly funded and led by regional agencies such as Caltrans or SANDAG, however, City staff is often involved in the delivery of these projects, since they provide a direct benefit to the community and provide sustainable infrastructure. CIP funding for regional projects is often necessary to assist regional agencies with initiating projects and to fund City staff costs. The following is a summary of various regional projects: Interstate-5 Multi-modal Corridor Study In an effort to identify all transportation related improvements needed along, across and within the four-mile long Interstate-5 and rail corridor in Chula Vista, the City has combined efforts with Caltrans, Metropolitan Transit System MTS) and SANDAG to undertake this planning level study. Funding is provided by a combination of TransNet and two Federal grants. The study has three phases of work, which are all now completed. Phase I identified and prioritized needed transportation improvements to improve mobility and goods movement within the study area bounded by SR-54 and Main Street. The results of the first phase study included in the 2050 Regional Transportation Plan adopted by SANDAG in October 2011 and in 2015. This report is used as a technical appendix to the SANDAG 2050 Regional Transportation Plan. Rail improvements were identified as the highest near- term need and led to the SANDAG’s Board of Directors approval of the design phase at Palomar Street. Design began in 2021 and the project is expected to be completed by 2035 https://www.sandag.org/regional-plan Phase II, the Chula Vista Light Rail Corridor Improvements Project Study Report, is a grade separation study for each of the three light rail trolley stations at E Street, H Street and Palomar Street. This document, completed in August 2012, has planning level work for the ultimate rail corridor improvements in Chula Vista. Final recommendations from the Light Rail Train (LRT) Improvement study were incorporated into the Phase III environmental work for the Palomar Street location as well as future regional plans and as individual projects into the Bayfront Development Impact Fee Program, the Western Transportation Development Impact Fee (WTDIF) Program and the CIP program. https://www.chulavistaca.gov/home/showpublisheddocument/16349/636542936250330000 In April of 2017, the E Street, F Street & H Street rail corridor study was updated to include additional information on project limits and a program level cost estimate. The “CHULA VISTA LIGHT RAIL CORRIDOR IMPROVEMENTS FINAL SUPPLEMENTAL PROJECT STUDY REPORT” functions as a supplemental report to the 2012 Project Study Report, and whose purpose is to document the analysis of one additional alternative for grade-separating the MTS San Diego Metropolitan Transit System) LRT tracks from the roadway crossings at E and H Streets by combining the two grade separations into one project. Since F Street is between E and H Streets, this combined project would also grade-separate the F Street crossing. The three future grade separated tracks are also used by the freight trains that travel through this corridor. The completed Phase I and Phase II studies serve to identify an accurate project description for Phase III, which commenced in FY 2014 for the environmental work and preliminary engineering of grade-separating the Palomar Street railroad crossing near the intersection with Industrial Blvd. On January 28, 2020, the City Council approved the Project Report for the Palomar Street Rail Grade Separation Project with Resolution 2020-015. A freight rail and LRT grade-separation Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the Palomar Street rail crossing commenced in FY 2014 and was completed during this phase.

The Palomar Street crossing is the highest priority LRT grade-separation project out of 27 study locations evaluated within San Diego County. City staff worked with SANDAG staff to obtain the $5 million design phase funded in FY 2020 for the next phase of work for Palomar Street. SANDAG and the City of Chula Vista were awarded $21.5 million through the Rebuilding American Infrastructure with Sustainability and Equity (RAISE) program. These funds will be used for the project’s design phase, which includes acquiring right-of-way and relocating utilities ahead of the start of construction. The construction phase is likely to get regional, State & Federal funding once the design phase nears completion. The design phase is estimated to take 24 to 30 months. Pending SANDAG funding for the construction phase, construction could be up to 36 months in duration with project completion anticipated in FY 2029. The H Street and the E street locations rank fourth and sixth, respectively. Due to the proximity of the F Street crossing and freight rail profile design constraints between the Sweetwater River and the J Street rail crossing, F Street must be grade separated along with the E Street and H Street rail crossings. The updated April 2017 E Street & H Street Grade Separation Project Alternatives Analyses/Feasibility Study (AA/FS) Report was completed with input from the freight rail operator. This AA/FS report provides additional information on the extent of the work needed from south of the Sweetwater River to a point south of the J Street crossing for this corridor. The AA/FS report also includes a preliminary opinion of probable costs Ultimate improvements for this freight and LRT rail corridor are planned for in the SANDAG Regional Transportation Plan and shown in Appendix A. https://www.sandag.org/-/media/SANDAG/Documents/PDF/regional-plan/2021-regional-plan/final-2021-regional- plan/2021-regional-plan-appendix-a-2021-12-01.pdf This project titled “Blue Line/Mid-Coast Frequency Enhancements and rail grade separations at 28th St, 32nd St, E St, H St, Palomar St, at Taylor St and Ash St, and Blue/Orange Track Connection at 12th/Imperial” is included as in the 2019 Federal Regional Transportation Plan” – Appendix A, as a two phased project with a planned completion date of Year 2035 for the work within Chula Vista. No funding is yet identified for the E Street (& F Street) to H Street rail corridor other than the current design phase of work at Palomar Street. As indicated below, the Chula Vista locations are planned to be completed by year 2035. In FY 2021, staff submitted to SANDAG an application packet for all four Chula Vista rail improvements so that they can be considered in the next Federal Transportation Act. Phase I – Blue Line Frequency Enhancements and rail grade separations at 28th St, 32nd St, E St, H St, Palomar St, and Blue/Orange Track Connection at 12th/Imperial (Year 2035). Phase II – Blue Line rail grade separations at Taylor St and Ash St (Year 2050). Main Street Extension from Heritage Road to La Media Road.

The initial work involves meeting with the resource agencies and Caltrans, which will ultimately result in the completion of the environmental document and preliminary level bridge and utility design. The development community continues their evaluation of various land use alternatives that will determine the timing and alignment needs for this arterial roadway but more immediate needs are further east along the SR-125 corridor. On July 30, 2020, as new development continues in the southeastern portion of the City in Otay Ranch, the developer, with approval by the City, initiated work with Caltrans on a future pair of $65M interchanges at SR-125/Main Street and at SR-125/Otay Valley Road (La Media Road). Additional discussion with Caltrans has been conducted on the first interchange with SR-125 at the easterly terminus of Main Street between Magdalena Avenue and westerly extension of Hunte Parkway from Eastlake Parkway. To eventually proceed to the construction phase for the initial interchange at Main Street, a Project Initiation Document (PID) via a Project Study Report has been completed for the project and is currently in the environmental clearance phase. The second location is an overcrossing planned south of Main Street at Otay Valley Road. Otay Valley Road is the south-to-easterly extension of La Media Road across the SR-125 corridor. This overcrossing is needed but may be constructed as a secondary interchange pending the traffic and geometric studies. The phase of work and completion of work timeline for the SR-125 interchanges are: 1.

In December 2017, City staff presented the Public Safety Staffing Strategies Report to the City Council. This report outlined staffing proposals for the Police and Fire Department that addressed critical needs. After discussions regarding the critical needs and funding options, the City Council directed the City Manager to return with a proposal for Council consideration to place a half-cent sales tax measure before the voters to fund public safety critical needs. In February 2018, City staff presented the City Council with a ballot measure to consider for placement to address public safety staffing on the ballot in June 2018. The tax will remain in place, Measure A sales tax does not have a sunset date. Concurrent with the approval of placing the measure on the ballot, the City Council adopted an Intended Public Safety Expenditure Plan for the anticipated revenues generated from the measure. On June 5, 2018 Chula Vista voters approved Measure A, authorizing the one-half cent sales tax increase. Collection of the sales tax began October 1, 2018. The sales tax will allow the Chula Vista Fire and Police Departments to provide faster responses to 9-1-1 emergency calls, increase neighborhood police patrols, reduce gang and drug-related crimes, address homelessness, and improve firefighter, paramedic and emergency medical response times. The City has established a separate fund to track and account for income and expenses and appointed a Citizen’s Oversight Committee (“COC”) to ensure transparency in the use of Measure A Sales Tax funds.

On August 2, 2016, the City Council approved Ordinance 3371 (“Ordinance”) modifying the Municipal Code to establish a temporary one-half cent Sales Tax if approved by the voters. As part of the action to approve the Ordinance, the City Council approved a spending plan described as the Intended Infrastructure, Facilities and Equipment Expenditure Plan (Expenditure Plan), which identified how the funds were to be allocated. On November 8, 2016 Chula Vista voters approved Measure P, authorizing the one-half cent sales tax increase on retail sales within the City for a period of ten (10) years. Collection of the sales tax began April 1, 2017. The sales tax is anticipated to exceed the original estimated amount of $177.8 million over the ten-year collection period. The proceeds of the tax will be used to upgrade police, fire, paramedic and 9-1-1 equipment, vehicles and facilities; fund streets and sidewalks; replace storm drains to prevent sinkholes; improve parks; repair recreation facilities; and repair or replace other City infrastructure. In 2024, voters approved the continuation of Measure P and the one-half cent sales tax increase on retail sales. The continuation of the sales tax is projected to generate $337 million over the next ten-year period. The City has established a separate fund to track and account for income and expenses and appointed a Citizens’ Oversight Committee (“COC”) to ensure transparency in the use of Measure P Sales Tax funds. Revenues The fiscal year 2027 Proposed Budget reflects the allocation of approximately $30.9 million in Measure P sales tax revenues. These sales tax revenues are received in the City’s General Fund, and then transferred into the Measure P Sales Tax Fund. The following table reflects the Measure P Sales Tax revenues by category.

These policies form the overall framework within which the operating budget was formulated. The fiscal policies, most of which are already codified in one form or another, are not considered new or controversial, but are summarized here to assist you to better understand the basis for the resource allocation decisions that were made. General 1. The City’s financial assets will be managed in a sound and prudent manner in order to ensure the continued viability of the organization. 2 A comprehensive operating and capital budget for all City funds will be developed annually and presented to the City Council for approval. The purpose of the annual budget will be to: a) Identify community needs for essential services. b) Identify the programs and specific activities required to provide these essential services. c) Establish program policies and goals that define the nature and level of program services required. d) Identify alternatives for improving the delivery of program services. e) Identify the resources required to fund identified programs and activities and enable accomplishment of program objectives. f) Set standards to facilitate the measurement and evaluation of program performance. 3 The City’s annual operating budget will be balanced whereby planned expenditures do not exceed anticipated revenues. 4 Recurring revenues will fund recurring expenditures. One-time revenues will be used for capital, reserve augmentation, or other non-recurring expenditures. 5. Accounting systems will be maintained in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. 6. Investment policy and practice will be in accordance with State statues that emphasize safety and liquidity over yield, including quarterly status reports to the City Council. (Council Policy) 7 City operations will be managed, and budgets prepared with the goal of maintaining an available fund balance in the General Fund of no less than fifteen percent of the General Fund operating budget. (Council Policy) 8. General Fund fiscal status reports reflecting comparisons of actual and projected performance with budget allocations for both revenue and expenditures will be presented to the City Council on a quarterly basis. (City Charter) Revenue 1. The City will endeavor to maintain a diversified and stable revenue base in order to minimize the impact to programs from short-term economic fluctuations. 2 Revenue projections will be maintained for the current year and four future fiscal years, and estimates will be based on a conservative, analytical, and objective process. 3 In order to maintain flexibility, except as required by law or funding source, the City will avoid earmarking any restricted revenues for specific purpose or program. 4 The City has established user fees to best ensure that those who use a proprietary service pay for that service in proportion to the benefits received. With few exceptions, such as those services provided for low-income residents, fees have been set to enable the City to recover the full cost of providing those services. (Citywide Cost Recovery Policy, Council Policy Number 159-03) 5. User fees will be reviewed and updated on an ongoing basis to ensure that program costs continue to be recovered and that the fees reflect changes in levels of service delivery. (Master Fee Schedule) Page 675 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 Appendix FISCAL POLICIES 368 6. The City will recover the cost of new facilities and infrastructure necessitated by new development consistent with State law and the City’s Growth Management Program. Development Impact Fees will be closely monitored and updated to ensure that they are maintained at a level adequate to recover costs. (GMOC Ordinance) 7 When considering new development alternatives, the City will attempt to determine the fiscal impact of proposed projects, annexations, etc. and ensure that mechanisms are put in place to provide funding for any projected negative impacts on City operations. (GMOC Ordinance) Expenditures 1. Budgetary control will be exercised at the Department/category level, meaning that each department is authorized to spend up to the total amount appropriated for that department within the expenditure categories of Personnel Costs, Supplies & Services, Other Charges, Utilities, and Capital. Transfers of appropriations between expenditure categories of up to $75,000 may be approved by the City Manager. Transfers of appropriations between expenditure categories in excess of $75,000, between departments, and transfers from CIP projects require City Council approval. (City Charter & Council Policy) 2 Appropriations, other than for capital projects, remaining unspent at the end of any fiscal year will be canceled and returned to Available Fund Balance with the exception of any appropriations encumbered as the result of a valid purchase order or as approved for a specific project or purpose by the City Council or the City Manager. Appropriations for capital projects will necessarily be carried over from year to year until the project is deemed to be complete (Council Policy) 3 The City will establish and maintain equipment replacement and facility maintenance funds as deemed necessary to ensure that monies are set aside and available to fund ongoing replacement needs. 4 The City will attempt to compensate non-safety employees at rates above the middle of the labor market as measured by the median rate for similar jurisdictions. (Council Policy) Capital Improvement Program (CIP) 1. Major capital projects will be included in a CIP Budget reflecting a five-year period. The CIP budget will be updated annually and presented to City Council for approval. Resources will be formally appropriated (budgeted) for the various projects on an annual basis in accordance with the five-year plan.

Background: City Council’s “Investment Policy and Guidelines” (the “Investment Policy”) Policy 220-01 was first adopted on July 26, 1994 and last updated on February 11, 2025. The Investment Policy provides guidelines, rules, and strategies for managing the city’s public funds. Its primary goals are to ensure safety of principal, maintain liquidity for operational needs, and obtain a market rate of return. The investment practices and policies of the City of Chula Vista are based upon state law and prudent money management. II. Purpose: This “Investment Policy and Guidelines” (the “Investment Policy”) Policy is intended to provide guidelines for the prudent investment of the City of Chula Vista’s (the “City”) cash balances, and outline policies to assist in maximizing the efficiency of the City’s cash management system, while meeting the daily cash flow demands of the City. III. Policy: The investment practices and policies of the City of Chula Vista are based upon state law and prudent money management IV. Scope: This Investment Policy applies to all financial assets of the City of Chula Vista, as indicated in 3.1 below. These funds are accounted for in the City’s Comprehensive Annual Financial Report. IV.1 Funds: The Director of Finance/Treasurer is responsible for investing the unexpended cash in the City Treasury for all funds, except for the employee’s retirement funds, which are administered separately, and those funds which are managed separately by trustees appointed under indenture agreements. The Director of Finance/Treasurer will strive to maintain the level of investment of this cash as close as possible to 100%. These funds are described in the City’s annual financial report and include: General Fund Special Revenue Funds Capital Project Funds Enterprise Funds Fiduciary Funds Any new fund created by the legislative body, unless specifically exempted This Investment Policy applies to all transactions involving the financial assets and related activity of the foregoing funds Bond proceeds shall be invested in the investments permitted by the applicable bond documents. If the bond documents are silent as to the permitted investments, the bond proceeds will be invested in the securities permitted by this Policy. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Policy, the percentage limitations listed elsewhere in this Policy do not apply to bond proceeds V. Prudence: The standard of prudence to be used by the Director of Finance/Treasurer shall be the “prudent investor standard”. This shall be applied in the context of managing an overall portfolio. The “prudent investor standard” is applied to local agencies, pursuant to California Government Code Section 53600.3 which provides, in pertinent part: all governing bodies of local agencies or persons authorized to make investment decisions on behalf of those local agencies investing public funds pursuant to this chapter are trustees and therefore fiduciaries subject to the prudent investor standard. When investing, reinvesting, purchasing, acquiring, exchanging, selling, or managing public funds, a trustee shall act with care, skill, prudence, and diligence under the circumstances then prevailing, including, but not limited to, the general economic conditions and the anticipated needs of the agency, that a Page 679 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 Appendix INVESTMENT POLICIES 372 prudent person acting in a like capacity and familiarity with those matters would use in the conduct of funds of a like character and with like aims, to safeguard the principal and maintain the liquidity needs of the agency…” V.I Personal Responsibility: The Director of Finance/Treasurer, Assistant Director of Finance, Treasury Manager and Finance Manager as investment officers acting in accordance with written procedures and the Investment Policy and exercising due diligence, shall be relieved of personal responsibility for an individual security’s credit risk or market price changes, provided deviations from expectations are reported to the City Council in a timely fashion and appropriate action is taken to control adverse developments. VI. Objective: Consistent with this aim, investments are made under the terms and conditions of California Government Code Section 53600, et seq. Criteria for selecting investments and the absolute order of priority are: VI.1 Safety: Safety of principal is the foremost objective of the investment program. Investments of the City of Chula Vista shall be undertaken in a manner that seeks to ensure the preservation of capital in the overall portfolio. To attain this objective, diversification is required in order that potential losses on individual securities do not exceed the income generated from the remainder of the portfolio VI.2 Liquidity: The City of Chula Vista’s investment portfolio will remain sufficiently liquid to enable the City to meet all operating requirements which might be reasonably anticipated and to maintain compliance with any indenture agreement, as applicable. Liquidity is essential to the safety of principal. VI.3 Return on Investments: The City of Chula Vista’s investment portfolio shall be designed with the objective of attaining a market-average rate of return throughout budgetary and economic cycles (market interest rates), within the City’s Investment Policy’s risk parameters and the City’s cash flow needs. See also Section 16.0. VII. Delegation of Authority: The City Council delegates responsibility for the investment program to the Director of Finance/Treasurer for a period of one year. Subject to review, the City Council may renew the delegation of authority each year. The Director of Finance/Treasurer shall be responsible for all transactions undertaken and shall establish a system of controls and written procedures to regulate the activities of subordinate officials. The responsibility for the day-to-day investment of City funds will be delegated to the Assistant Director of Finance or their designee. The Director of Finance/ Treasurer may delegate day-to-day investment decision making and execution authority to an investment advisor. The advisor shall follow the Investment Policy and such other written instructions as are provided. VIII. Ethics and Conflicts of Interest: In addition to state and local statutes relating to conflicts of interest, all persons involved in the investment process shall refrain from personal business activity that could conflict with proper execution of the investment program, or which could impair their ability to make impartial investment decisions. Employees and investment officers, including investment advisors, are required to file annual disclosure statements as required for “public officials who manage public investments” [as defined and required by the Political Reform Act and related regulations, including Government Code Sections 81000, et seq., and the rules, regulations and guidelines promulgated by California’s Fair Political Practices Commission (FPPC)]. IX. Authorized Financial Dealers and Institutions: For any transactions executed by the City, the City’s Director of Finance/Treasurer will maintain a list of the financial institutions and brokers/dealers authorized to provide investment and depository services and will perform an annual review of their financial condition. The City will utilize Moody’s Securities or other such services to determine financially sound institutions with which to do business. The City shall annually send a copy of the current Investment Policy to all financial institutions and brokers/dealers approved to do business with the City.

A. Credit risk, defined as the risk of loss due to failure of the insurer of a security, shall be mitigated by investing in those securities with an “A” or above rating and approved in the Investment Policy and by diversifying the investment portfolio so that the failure of any one issuer would not unduly harm the City’s cash flow. B Market risk, defined as the risk of market value fluctuations due to overall changes in the general level of interest rates, shall be mitigated by implementing a long-term investment strategy. It is explicitly recognized herein, however, that in a diversified portfolio, occasional measured losses are inevitable and must be considered within the context of overall investment return. The City’s investment portfolio will remain sufficiently liquid to enable the City to meet all operating requirements which might be reasonably anticipated. XV. Maximum Maturities: To the extent possible, the City will attempt to match its investments with anticipated cash flow requirements. The City will not directly invest in securities maturing more than five (5) years from the settlement date, unless the legislative body has granted express authority to make that investment either specifically, or as a part of an investment program approved by the City Council at least three (3) months prior to the investment. XVI.

No investment personnel, including an investment advisor, may engage in an investment transaction except as provided for under the terms of this Investment Policy and the procedure established by the Director of Finance/Treasurer. The external auditors shall annually review the investments with respect to the Investment Policy.

Council Policy 220-01, Last updated February 10, 2026 via Council Resolution 2026-029 Page 686 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda CITYWIDE RESERVE POLICY – FISCAL HEALTH PLAN Page 687 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda Page 688 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 Appendix CITYWIDE RESERVE POLICY – FISCAL HEALTH PLAN 381 Citywide Reserve Policy – Fiscal Health Plan The City Council amended the General Fund Reserves – Fiscal Health Plan policy on May 28, 2024 to consolidate various reserve policies into a single policy, under Citywide Reserve Policy – Fiscal Health Plan (Resolution 2024- 112). On May 20, 2025, City Council amended the General Fund Reserves – Fiscal Health Plan policy with minor changes to improve the overall clarity of the policy (Resolution 2025-079). Background: Public entities accumulate and maintain adequate reserves to help ensure both financial stability and the ability to provide core services during difficult times. Sufficient reserves create financial stability resulting in increased credit quality and allow the public entity to better weather downturns in the economy and the impacts of negative events, both major and minor. The establishment of prudent financial reserves is important to ensure the long-term fiscal health of the City The Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA), an international organization that promotes the professional financial management of governments for the public interest, recommends that governments formally adopt reserve policies that govern the amount of resources to be held in reserve and conditions under which reserves can be used. GFOA recognizes that each government’s situation is unique, and the reserve policies should be developed based upon its own specific circumstances. Purpose: The purpose of this policy is to establish a citywide reserve policy that: Establishes reserves, reserve levels, and methodology for calculating reserves for the General Fund and other funds Defines requirements to use reserves and the process to fund and replenish the reserve when utilized Policy: General Fund Operating Reserve Policy The City’s General Fund is the primary operating fund of the City and source of funding for core services such as police, fire, public works, and recreation. The General Fund is used to account for the general operations of the City. It is used to account for all financial resources, except those required to be accounted for in another fund. The General Fund Reserve policy is established to ensure that the City’s finances are managed in a manner which will (1) continue to provide for the delivery of quality services, (2) maintain and enhance service delivery as the community grows in accordance with the General Plan, (3) minimize or eliminate the need to raise taxes and fees because of temporary revenue shortfalls, and (4) establish the reserves necessary to meet known and unknown future obligations and ability to respond to unexpected opportunities. Fiscal stability is an important factor in operating a City. Establishing certain financial reserves protects the City against unexpected interruptions in revenues, vulnerability to Federal or State actions, adverse economic conditions, unpredictable one-time costs, and exposure to natural disasters and emergencies. There are additional benefits to establishing a minimum General Fund reserve. Credit rating agencies carefully monitor levels of reserves in a government’s General Fund to evaluate a government’s continued creditworthiness. A higher credit rating results in savings to the taxpayer when the City issues debt or participates in short- term borrowing. Finally, reserve levels are a crucial consideration in long- term financial planning. GFOA recommends maintaining a minimum reserves in the General Fund of no less than 5% to 15% of general fund operating revenues, or no less than one to two months of regular general fund operating expenditures. A government’s particular situation may require reserve levels in the general fund significantly in excess of these recommended minimum levels. Cities with higher reserve levels are better positioned to protect public services Page 689 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 Appendix CITYWIDE RESERVE POLICY – FISCAL HEALTH PLAN 382 during economic downturns. GFOA recommends that when establishing a policy governing the level of reserves in the general fund, a government should consider a variety of factors, including: The predictability of its revenues and the volatility of its expenditures (i.e., higher levels of reserves may be needed if significant revenue sources are subject to unpredictable fluctuations or if operating expenditures are highly volatile). The availability of resources in other funds as well as the potential drain upon general fund resources from other funds (i.e., the availability of resources in other funds may reduce the amount of reserves needed in the general fund, just as deficits in other funds may require that a higher level of reserves be maintained in the general fund). Liquidity (i.e., a disparity between when financial resources become available to make payments and the average maturity of related liabilities may require that a higher level of resources be maintained). Designations (i.e., governments may wish to maintain higher levels of reserves to compensate for any portion of fund balance already designated for a specific purpose). This policy establishes three (3) distinct General Fund Reserves: 1. General Fund Operating Reserve – minimum 15% 2 Economic Contingency Reserve – minimum 5% 3 Catastrophic Event Reserve – minimum 3% The total recommended minimum reserve level for the three categories combined is 23%. General Fund Operating Reserve The General Fund Operating Reserve represents unrestricted resources available for appropriations by the City Council to address extraordinary needs of an emergency nature. The City shall maintain General Fund Operating Reserve levels of no less than 15% of the annual operating expenditure budget. This level of reserves represents approximately 1.8 months of General Fund operating expenditures. The reserves may be used to provide temporary financing for unanticipated extraordinary needs of an emergency nature, such as major storm drain repairs, litigation or settlement costs or an unexpected liability created by Federal or State legislative action. Authorized use (mid-year appropriations) of the General Fund Operating Reserve will require approval by four/ fifths 4/5) vote of the City Council. Economic Contingency Reserve The Economic Contingency Reserve represents funds available for appropriation by the City Council to mitigate service impacts during a significant downturn in the economy which impacts City revenues such as sales tax, property tax, and transient occupancy tax. The City shall maintain General Fund Economic Contingency Reserve levels of no less than 5% of the annual operating expenditure budget to provide for unexpected financial impacts related to a significant economic slowdown. Funds may be appropriated from the Economic Contingency Reserves only after the City Manager and the Finance Director have prepared an analysis providing sufficient evidence that the remaining reserves are adequate to offset potential downturns in revenue sources and provide sufficient cash balance for the daily financial needs of the City for the remainder of the fiscal year. Once the analysis has been presented to the City Council, action to appropriate from the reserves will require a declaration that a fiscal emergency or extraordinary need exists and approval by four/ fifths (4/5) vote of the City Council. Catastrophic Event Reserve The Catastrophic Event Reserve represents funds available for appropriation by the City Council to fund unanticipated expenses related to a major natural disaster in the City. Page 690 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 Appendix CITYWIDE RESERVE POLICY – FISCAL HEALTH PLAN 383 The City shall maintain a General Fund Catastrophic Event Reserve level of no less than 3% of the annual operating expenditure budget to fund unanticipated expenses related to an “ emergency” as defined in the City of Chula Vista Municipal Code, Chapter 2.14, Section 2.14.020. These funds are associated with the City’s Emergency Organization Department and Disaster Council. In the event that the City Council proclaims a local emergency, the Catastrophic Event Reserve can be utilized to fund response and recovery costs until reimbursements from federal and/or state agencies can be recovered. Authorized use of the Catastrophic Event Reserve will require a Proclamation of a Local Emergency by the City Council or Director of Emergency Services. In addition, authorized use (mid-year appropriations) of the Catastrophic Event Reserves will require approval by four/ fifths (4/5) vote of the City Council. Calculation of General Fund Reserves The General Fund Reserve levels will be calculated using the prior year’s Adopted General Fund budgeted operating expenditures including transfers out related to debt service payments and reoccurring operating obligations. The General Fund Reserve levels will be calculated at the close of each fiscal year. The Finance Department shall provide a comprehensive reserve fund status report annually to the City Council along with the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report. Reserve levels will be evaluated annually in conjunction with the development of the City’s Long- Term Financial Plan and annual operating budget. There is no maximum reserve level as any additional reserves would provide a greater level of fiscal security. Pension, Bond Call, and OPEB Reserve Fund Policy The City provides its permanent employees with a defined benefit pension through the California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CalPERS). The City, like most CalPERS participating agencies, continues to see significant increases in pension costs due to current and retired employees living longer, lower than anticipated investment returns by CalPERS, and CalPERS policies. In response to continued increases in pension cost, the City issued 350 million of Pension Obligation Bonds (POB) in February 2021 to refinance & restructure its CalPERS Unfunded Actuarial Liability (UAL). At the time of issuance. the POB resulted in the conversion of a 7.0% UAL interest debt with CalPERS to 2.54% interest debt on the POB. The City utilized the restructuring to achieve several objectives including: Developing a more manageable repayment schedule for this large pension liability will enhance budget predictability and enhance City’s ability to maintain service levels. Prioritizing projected savings towards reserves to mitigate future impacts from pension increases. At the time of issuance, the City’s POBs were projected to result in over $175 million of interest rate savings. Despite these significant savings and best efforts to manage pension costs, the City continues to see increases in pension costs, specifically in the UAL, resulting in higher contributions to CalPERS and burden on the General Fund, the City’s primary operating fund. As of June 30, 2022, the total Miscellaneous plan UAL was $ 44 million and the total Safety plan UAL was $41 million. The City also provides certain Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB) in the form of subsidized health care rates for tier 1 retirees. The City budgets the implied subsidy amounts on an annual basis. As of June 30, 2024, the total OPEB liability for the City is $23.5 million. The Pension Reserve Fund, Bond Call Fund, and OPEB Reserve Fund are established to ensure the City has adequate reserves to fund future pension and OPEB liabilities. This policy establishes three (3) distinct reserves: 1. Pension Reserve Fund – minimum 15% 2 Bond Call Fund 3 OPEB Reserve Fund Page 691 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 Appendix CITYWIDE RESERVE POLICY – FISCAL HEALTH PLAN 384 Pension Reserve Fund The Pension Reserve Funds represent restricted fund balance and are established in the form of an irrevocable Section 115 Trust (Trust). Pension Reserve Fund funds are deposited in a Trust, and in accordance with IRS regulations, may only be withdrawn and used for the following purposes: (1) City’s annual UAL payment to CalPERS, (2) City’s annual normal cost payment to CalPERS, (3) reimbursement to the City for prior-year and current- year payments to CalPERS, and (4) Additional Discretionary Payments to CalPERS. The City shall maintain a Pension Reserve Fund level of no less than 15% of the prior year’s Adopted General Fund budgeted operating expenditures to fund allowable pension costs. Authorized use (mid-year appropriations) of the Pension Reserve Fund will require approval by four/fifths (4/5) vote of the City Council Bond Call Fund and OPEB Reserve Fund The Bond Call Fund represents funds available for appropriation by the City Council to be used to pay any outstanding debt prior to maturity that results in net annual savings. These funds will allow the City to accumulate funds to eliminate debt early. For example, beginning in June 2031, the POBs are eligible to be called, saving on interest costs and reducing future POB debt service payments. Authorized use ( mid- year appropriations) of Bond Call Fund will require approval by four/fifths (4/5) vote of the City Council. OPEB Reserve Funds represent funds available for appropriation by the City Council to provide funding for the City’s outstanding OPEB liability. OPEB Reserve Fund will be funded up to 75% of the outstanding OPEB liability in the most recent annual actuarial valuation, to ensure there are adequate reserves to fund this liability in future years. Authorized use (mid- year appropriations) of OPEB Reserve Funds will require approval by four/fifths (4/5) vote of the City Council Calculation of Pension, Bond Call, and OPEB Reserve Fund Reserves The Pension Reserve Fund level will be calculated using the prior year’s Adopted General Fund budgeted operating expenditures including transfers out related to debt service payments and reoccurring operating obligations. The OPEB Reserve maximum will be calculated using the most recent actuarial valuation. The Pension, Bond Call, and OPEB Reserve Fund levels will be calculated at the close of each fiscal year. The Finance Department shall provide a comprehensive reserve fund status report, including five-year reserve fund balance projections, annually to the City Council along with the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report. Reserve levels will be evaluated annually in conjunction with the development of the City’s Long- Term Financial Plan and annual operating budget to ensure minimum reserve levels are maintained. There is no maximum reserve level for the Pension, Bond Call, and OPEB Reserve Fund as any additional reserves would provide a greater level of fiscal security. Funding the General Fund, Pension, Bond Call Fund, and OPEB Reserve Fund1 General Fund Reserves, Bond Call Fund, and OPEB Reserve Fund will be funded through Surplus Funds. Surplus Funds available after closing the General Fund shall be allocated as follows: 1. Maintain minimum reserve levels for all three General Fund Reserves, in the following order: Operating Reserve, Economic Contingency Reserve, and Catastrophic Event Reserve 2 75% of all remaining Surplus Funds will be deposited to the Bond Call Fund 3 25% of all remaining Surplus Funds will be deposited to the OPEB Reserve Fund. Once 75% funding of outstanding OPEB liability is achieved, all remaining Surplus Funds will be deposited into the Bond Call Fund. 4 Should the OPEB Reserve Fund and Bond Call Fund be fully funded then any Surplus Funds will be added to the General Fund Operating Reserve. Surplus Funds will be calculated at the close of each fiscal year and represent excess fund balance that is not otherwise designated and is available for appropriation. Special consideration shall be made by the City Manager 1 This is the calculation through fiscal year 2031. After fiscal year 2030-31, the Pension Reserve Fund will be included in the allocation hierarchy after the Operating Reserve and before the Economic Contingency ReserveGeneral Fund Reserves Page 692 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 Appendix CITYWIDE RESERVE POLICY – FISCAL HEALTH PLAN 385 and Finance Director each fiscal year when determining Surplus Funds to ensure any General Fund supported funds such as Workers Compensation and Public Liability Funds maintain adequate fund balances. With the issuance of POBs, the City shall budget a minimum of 75% of the net annual savings (POB Net Savings). Net POB Savings represent 75% of the difference between the required CalPERS UAL payments1 compared to the annual debt service payment for the POB. Pension Reserve Fund, Bond Call Fund, and OPEB Reserve Fund will be funded through POB Net Savings for the ten-year period after bond issuance. (fiscal year 2021-22 through fiscal year 2030-31). For fiscal year 2022-23 through fiscal year 2030-31, the POB Net Savings will be allocated as follows: 1. City’s annual UAL payment to CalPERS 2 Maintain the Pension Reserve Fund reserve level of 15% 3 With the recommendation of the Finance Director and concurrence of the City Manager, an Additional Discretionary Payment (ADP) to reach a pension funding level of up to 95% for each plan 4 75% of all remaining POB Net Savings will be deposited to the Bond Call Fund 5. 25% of all remaining POB Net Savings will be deposited to the OPEB Reserve Fund. Once 75% funding of outstanding OPEB liability is achieved, all remaining POB Net Savings will be deposited into the Bond Call Fund. Additional Discretionary Payment (ADP) represents additional payments to CalPERS which would serve to reduce the City’s UAL resulting in ongoing savings in pension costs and reduction in future required contributions. CalPERS allows participating agencies to make ADP at any time and in any amount. In the event that any reserve is used, the City Manager and Finance Director will develop a plan to replenish the reserves. The plan will be included in the adoption of the City’s annual operating budget and Long-Term Financial Plan Below is a graphical representation of the funding of the General Fund, Pension, Bond Call Fund, and OPEB Reserve Fund for the POB Net Savings and Surplus Funds2: 1 As determined by the June 30, 2019 CalPERS Actuarial Valuation Report 2 Pension Reserve Fund added will be included in the allocation hierarchy after General Fund Reserves after fiscal year 2030-31 and the end of the Net POB Savings.

These funds are intended to be self-supporting as well as restricted and cannot be used for other City services. They account for revenues and expenses related to the City’ s sewer programs, including maintenance and expansion of the City’ s conveyance system and payment of San Diego Metro wastewater treatment costs. The Sewer Service Revenue Fund accounts for revenue collected from monthly sewer service charges for all properties that are connected to the City’ s sewer system. These funds can only be used for sewer related operations and maintenance. The primary use of these funds is payment for the City’ s annual San Diego Metropolitan Sewer Capacity and to fund maintenance and operational costs associated with the sewer collection system. The GFOA recommends enterprise funds maintain minimum reserve balances. A government’ s particular situation may require levels of reserves significantly in excess of their recommended minimum levels. Cities with higher reserve levels are better positioned to protect public services during economic downturns. GFOA recommends that in establishing a policy governing the level of reserves or working capital in enterprise funds, a government should consider a variety of factors, including but not limited to the following: The predictability of its revenues and the volatility of its expenditures ( i.e. higher levels of reserves may be needed if significant revenue sources are subject to unpredictable fluctuations or if operating expenditures are highly volatile). Liquidity ( i.e. a disparity between when financial resources actually become available to make payments and the average maturity of related liabilities may require that a higher level of resources be maintained). Designations ( i.e. governments may wish to maintain higher levels of reserves to compensate for any portion of available fund balance already designated for a specific purpose). This policy establishes four (4) distinct Sewer Service Revenue Fund Reserves: POB Net Savings Page 695 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 Appendix CITYWIDE RESERVE POLICY – FISCAL HEALTH PLAN 388 1. Working Capital and Rate Stabilization Reserve 2 Emergency Reserve 3 Vehicle Replacement Reserve Working Capital and Rate Stabilization Reserve Working Capital and Rate Stabilization reserves in the Sewer Service Revenue Fund will be restricted to maintaining and operating the wastewater collection system and paying treatment charges to City of San Diego Metropolitan Wastewater (“ Metro”). The reserve will be funded from revenues accumulated in the Sewer Service Revenue Fund. It is intended to accommodate any natural variability in revenues and expenditures, including potential disruptions of cash flows due to varied billing methodology, short-term fluctuations and annual cycles. The reserve will also assist in addressing shortfalls which may occur due to unanticipated cost increases in labor or energy and other consumption based goods and services, such as wastewater treatment services provided by Metro. The reserves represent unrestricted resources available for appropriation by the City Council addressing unforeseen needs for sewer services. The Working Capital and Rate Stabilization Reserves will assist the City in addressing the following items: Rate Stabilization – the reserves will allow the City the flexibility to “smooth” rates and phase increases in over multiple years, which is prudent given the potential variability in the City’s payments to Metro. Revenue Collection Fluctuations - the reserves will be used to protect the City from natural fluctuations in revenue and expenditure cycles which is prudent given that the City bills customers at different points in time but incurs expenses continuously throughout the year. Rates of delinquencies – delays in collection of outstanding revenues. Payroll cycles – the timing of a fixed cash requirement for payroll, as related to the timing of revenue cycles. Unanticipated expenses - expenses whose characteristics make accurate estimation difficult, such as increases in wastewater treatment services provided by the City of San Diego, energy costs, labor benefits and other consumption based goods and services. The City shall maintain a Sewer Revenue reserve equivalent to 90 days of operating expenditures and a Rate Stabilization reserve equivalent to 90 days of operating expenditures for a minimum combined total of 180 days and a maximum reserve balance of 125% of the minimum balance. If funds are appropriated from the Sewer Revenue Working Capital and Rate Stabilization Reserves, the funds should be replenished in the budget process during subsequent fiscal years to the minimum reserve balance. If the magnitude of the event caused the Sewer Revenue Working Capital and a Stabilization Reserves to be less than 30 days of the operating and maintenance budget, the Finance Director shall provide the City Council with a plan to incrementally replenish the reserves to the 180 days minimum reserve balance. Emergency Reserve The Sewer Service Revenue Fund Emergency Reserve is necessary to secure funding for insurance deductibles, unforeseen liabilities/ litigation and settlement costs related to the City’ s wastewater system. The City shall maintain a minimum Sewer Service Revenue Fund Emergency Reserve target level of 5% of the operating and maintenance budget and a maximum reserve balance of 125% of the minimum balance. If funds are appropriated from the Sewer Revenue Emergency Reserves due to unanticipated needs, the Finance Director shall provide the City Council with a plan to incrementally replenish the reserves to the minimum reserve balance. Vehicle Replacement Reserve The Sewer Service Revenue Fund Vehicle Replacement Reserves represents monies set aside to fund the replacement of aging vehicles. The allocation is funded from revenues accumulated in the Sewer Service Revenue Fund. Page 696 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 Appendix CITYWIDE RESERVE POLICY – FISCAL HEALTH PLAN 389 The City shall maintain a minimum Sewer Service Fund Vehicle Replacement Reserve target of 2% of the operating and maintenance budget. This reserve will ensure that vehicles utilized for sewer operations are replaced as scheduled and available to deploy as needed. To achieve a minimum impact to cost of services and rates, funds will be included in the proposed budget on an annual basis as identified in the City’s Vehicle Replacement schedule. The cost of replacing all the vehicles will be averaged over the lifespan of the existing fleet. This will generate a more normalized cost of services by evenly distributing revenue requirements on a year-to-year basis offsetting temporary cash flow deficiencies and avoid significant increases in rates charges to customers in the years the replacement cost are incurred. Measure A Fund Reserve Policy On June 15, 2018, Chula Vista voters approved Measure A Sales and Use Tax, a one-half (½) cent Public Safety General Transactions and Use Tax ( Sales Tax) in the City of Chula Vista. The Measure A Fund Reserve Policy is established to avoid any impacts to the General Fund due to temporary sales tax revenue shortfalls, and to establish the reserves necessary to meet known and unknown future obligations for the City’ s Police and Fire Departments. This policy establishes a Measure A Fund Economic Contingency Reserve. Measure A Fund Economic Contingency Reserve The City shall maintain a Measure A Fund Economic Contingency Reserve levels of no less than 60 days approximately 16% of the annual operating budget) of operations to provide for unexpected financial impacts related to a significant economic slowdown. If funds are appropriated (spent) from the operating reserves due to unanticipated needs, the funds should be replenished by that department in the budget process during the subsequent fiscal year to maintain the minimum reserve balance. If the magnitude of the event caused the Measure A Fund Economic Contingency Reserve to be deeply reduced, the City Manager and Finance Director shall provide the City Council with a plan to incrementally replenish the reserves to the minimum level. Authorized use (mid-year appropriations) of the Measure A Economic Contingency Reserve will require approval by a four/fifths ( 4/5) vote of the City Council. Calculation of Measure A Fund Economic Contingency Reserves The Measure A Fund Economic Contingency Reserve levels will be calculated using the prior year’ s Adopted Measure A Fund budgeted operating expenditures. The reserve level is defined as the number of days of operation in its normal course of business and shall be calculated based on the annual operating budget for the fiscal year, less any budgeted debt service. Reserves will be evaluated annually in conjunction with the development of the Annual Budget process. There is no maximum reserve level as any reserves above the required minimum would provide a greater level of fiscal security in the case of an unexpected economic slowdown. Any reserves above the required minimum could also be used to support public safety, consistent with the Measure A Public Safety Expenditure Plan through the application of Measure A sales tax revenues that will ensure the best return on investment in terms of staffing improvements for the improved deployment of resources and include the used of these non- recurring funds for one- time essential public safety purchases ( i.e., capital, consulting, software, etc.) Ambulance Transport System Enterprise Fund Reserve Policy On May 12, 2020, City Council approved Chula Vista Council Resolution No. 2020-102 directing the Fire Department to provide exclusive Emergency Medical Ambulance Transport Services (ATS) within the City of Chula Vista, the City of Imperial Beach, and the Bonita Sunnyside Fire Protection district. In the resolution were revenue projections that included both a base rate and ancillary fees multiplied by the volume of transports to reach projected FY2022 revenues. The resolution adopted a rate of $2,800 as the “Base Cost of Service”. In addition, Resolution No. 2020- 103 authorized a purchase agreement with Republic EVS for purchase of 13 ambulances; Resolution No. 2020-104 authorized a purchase agreement with Stryker Medical for gurney systems; Resolution No. 2020- 105 authorized a sole source purchase agreement with Zoll Medical Corporation for cardiac monitors and auto pulse systems; and Resolution No. 2020-106 authorized a sole source purchase agreement with Motorola Solutions. These resolutions resulted in loan agreements in the amount of $ 4,493,100 with Banc of America Public Capital Corp, and an interfund Page 697 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 Appendix CITYWIDE RESERVE POLICY – FISCAL HEALTH PLAN 390 loan in the amount of $4,881,710 from the Measure A available fund balance. These loans are being utilized to provide funding for all capital purchases and start- up costs associated with the Ambulance Transport Program. The interfund loan from Measure A was agreed to be repaid within the first five (5) full years of operation of the ATS program at an interest rate equal to the City’s pooled investment rate of return, which was approximately 2.2% at the time the interfund loan was approved by City Council. The loan from Banc of America Public Capital Corp is repaid in semiannual payments with an annual interest rate of 1.00%. This policy establishes a formal ATS Enterprise Fund Reserve Policy. The fund reserve policy is to provide guidance to City Council and staff in making financial decisions and aid in ensuring fiscal responsibility of the ATS Enterprise Fund. This policy establishes reserves that will position the Transport program to be able to weather significant economic downturns and more effectively manage uncertainties. Sufficient reserves create the financial stability necessary to meet debt obligations of the ATS Enterprise Fund, reduce the risk of impacting the General Fund, and support continuous provision of emergency services to our residents. This policy establishes four (4) distinct ATS Enterprise Fund Reserves: 1. Debt Obligation Reserve – Minimum 1-year current debt obligation 2 Operating Reserve – Minimum 180 days operating expenses 3 Capital Replacement Reserve - Minimum $ 4 million in capital replacement reserve 4 Liability Insurance Reserve - Minimum $1 million liability insurance reserve Debt Obligation Reserve The ATS Enterprise Fund will maintain a fund balance reserve equal to one fiscal year’ s debt obligation. This reserve is to ensure debt obligations are met to keep the City in good credit standing. In fiscal years with no current debt obligations, the debt obligation reserve will be used to bring other reserve balances to their stated policy levels. If all reserves have achieved minimum levels and no debt obligations exist, this reserve will be no longer be required and any funds will be release for other use at the discretion of the Fire Department. If funds are appropriated (spent) from the Debt Obligation Reserve due to unanticipated needs, the funds should be replenished in the budget process during the subsequent fiscal year to maintain the minimum reserve balance. If the magnitude of the event caused the Debt Obligation Reserve to be deeply reduced, the City Manager, Fire Chief and Finance Director shall provide the City Council with a plan to incrementally replenish the reserve to the minimum one- year debt obligation level. The provided plan will align with the budget process or quarterly monitoring report, whichever occurs first. Operating Reserve An Operating Reserve represents unrestricted resources available for appropriations by City Council to address extraordinary needs of an emergency nature. The ATS Enterprise Fund will maintain an Operating Reserve of no less than 180 days of operating expenses. This will be calculated using the following fiscal year’ s adopted expense budget ( excluding debt service and transfers-out), with the maximum reserve amount of twelve months of operating expenses. The Fire Department reserves the right to maintain reserve balances at their discretion within the minimum and maximum thresholds of 180 days and up to twelve months of operating expenses. If funds are appropriated (spent) from the Operating Reserve due to unanticipated needs, the funds should be replenished in the budget process during the subsequent fiscal year to maintain the minimum reserve balance. If the magnitude of the event caused the Operating Reserve to be deeply reduced, the City Manager, Fire Chief and Finance Director shall provide the City Council with a plan to replenish the reserves to the minimum operating balance. Capital Reserve The ATS Enterprise Fund will maintain four million dollars in reserves specified for various capital equipment replacement, as needed. This reserve is to ensure funds are available for various capital purchase needs as they arise. This reserve is also being created to provide relief from the need to obtain debt- based funding for capital or equipment needs. The Fire Department will reassess the need for capital reserve needs every three (3) years and Page 698 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 Appendix CITYWIDE RESERVE POLICY – FISCAL HEALTH PLAN 391 incorporate necessary adjustments into the budget process to ensure reserve goals are met in a manner that are balanced with other budgetary priorities. If funds are appropriated from the Capital Reserve due to anticipated or unanticipated needs, the funds should be replenished in the budget process during the subsequent fiscal year to maintain the minimum reserve balance. If the magnitude of the event caused the Capital Reserve to be deeply reduced, the City Manager, Fire Chief and Finance Director shall provide the City Council with a plan to replenishment the reserves to the minimum balance. The provided plan will align with the budget process or quarterly monitoring report, whichever occurs first. Liability Insurance Reserves The ATS Enterprise Fund will maintain one million dollars in reserves specified for meeting liability insurance needs as they arise. This reserve is to ensure claims can be addressed and fulfilled as they arise. The Fire Department will reassess the need for liability insurance reserve needs every three ( 3) years and incorporate necessary adjustments into the budget process to ensure reserve goals are met in a manner that are balanced with other budgetary priorities. If funds are appropriated from the Liability Insurance Reserve due to anticipated or unanticipated needs, the funds should be replenished in the budget process during the subsequent fiscal year to maintain the minimum reserve balance. If the magnitude of the event caused the Liability Insurance Reserve Reserves to be deeply reduced, the City Manager, Fire Chief and Finance Director shall provide the City Council with a plan to replenish the reserves to the minimum balance. The provided plan will align with the budget process or quarterly monitoring report, whichever occurs first. Establishment of Reserves The ATS Enterprise Fund program is currently in its third year of operation. To establish the reserves outlined above, until reserves are fully funded, all revenues in excess of expenses (surplus) at year end will be used to fund reserves. In determining the surplus, expenses will include any discretionary Measure A loan payment. These reserves will be established as an equal 25% allocation to each reserve category of excess revenue at year end, after any discretionary Measure A loan payment. The funding waterfall will be evaluated periodically and may be revised by the Finance Director in consultation with the Fire Chief Council Policy 220-03, Last updated May 20, 2025 via Council Resolution 2025-079.

After the budget is approved by the City Council, there are circumstances which arise that could require adjustments to the approved budget. Council Policy 220-02 “Financial Reporting and Transfer Authority” was established in January of 1996 and allows for budget transfers and adjustments to be completed (Resolution No. 18191). The Policy was established to clarify the authority for budget transfers which may be required to fund needed services in each City department within a given fiscal year. On November 8, 2022, the City Council adopted an update that increased the City Manager’s allowable transfer amount from $15,000 to $75,000 and other minor language (Resolution No. 2022-250). On October 17, 2023, additional minor language updates to clarified summary accounts” should be replaced with “budget categories” to align with the current financial system (Resolution No. 2023-158). Purpose: To clarify the authority for budget transfers which may be required to fund needed services in each city department within a given fiscal year. Background: City Charter Section 505.c - the Finance Director shall… have control over all expenditures to ensure that budget appropriations are not exceeded. Section 505.f - Submit to the City Council through the City Manager a quarterly statement of all receipts and disbursements in sufficient detail to show the exact financial condition of the City. Policy: It is the intent of the City Council that the budget authorization be maintained and that transfers should be limited and used only when it is necessary to continue the effective operations of the City. This policy shall establish guidelines for determining the authority level of transfers within the departments. It is the City Manager’s responsibility to maintain the integrity of the adopted budget and to allow transfers only as a means for continuing the programs and policies of the City Council as approved via the budgetary process. Department heads shall be held responsible to exercise adequate financial controls to ensure the accomplishment of scheduled work programs withing available appropriations. Departments shall maintain budgetary control at the budget category level rather than by line item to give flexibility of operations. Toward this end, the following guidelines are established: 1. Budgetary control shall be established at the budget category level, i.e. Personnel Services, Supplies & Services Utilities, etc., giving departments the flexibility to manage within broader limits, rather than controlling at the individual line item account level. 2 Council approval shall be required for all transfers of appropriations between departments, regardless of amount. 3 Council approval shall be required for transfers of appropriations which are greater than $75,000 between budget categories within a department. 4 The City Council delegates authority to the City Manager for approval of transfers of appropriations up to and including $75,000 between budget categories within the same department upon certification by Director of Finance that appropriations are available. 5. The City Council shall receive a quarterly status report [required by Charter section 505(f)], from the Director of Finance which provides actual vs. budgetary comparisons by department, as well as projections for fiscal year. This report will include a listing of any transfers within departments. Council Policy 220-02.

It assists in the City’ s effort to allocate limited resources to provide the highest quality of service to the public. The City understands that poor debt management can have ripple effects that hurt other areas of the City. On the other hand, a properly managed debt program promotes economic growth and enhances the vitality of the City of Chula Vista ( also referred to as, “ City”) for its residents and businesses. This Debt Policy applies to any debt issued by the Successor Agency, the Chula Vista Public Financing Authority, the Chula Vista Municipal Financing Authority, any Mello-Roos Community Facilities District formed by the City, or any other entity for which the City Council serves as the governing body, as applicable. PURPOSE The purpose of the Debt Policy is to set forth the principles and objectives that should guide the City’s decisions in the responsible issuance and management of debt by the City. The main objectives are to establish conditions for the use of debt; to ensure that debt capacity and affordability are adequately considered; to minimize the City’s interest and issuance costs; to maintain the highest possible credit rating; to provide complete financial disclosure and reporting; and to maintain financial flexibility for the City. In addition, the Debt Policy is intended to comply with the requirements of California Government Code Section 8855(i), requiring any issuer of public debt to provide to the California Debt and Investment Advisory Commission (CDIAC), no later than thirty days prior to the sale of any debt, a report of the proposed issuance, including certification that the issuer has adopted local debt policies concerning the use of debt and that the proposed debt issuance is consistent with those policies. POLICY GENERAL POLICIES The Finance Team All debt of the City of Chula Vista or its related entities shall be issued under the direction of the City Manager or Director of Finance /Treasurer, with the Mayor and City Council providing final approval at a public meeting. The City Manager or Director of Finance/Treasurer will determine the composition of the “Finance Team” involved in each issuance. The Finance Team shall consist of both City Staff and outside professionals. The Director of Finance/ Treasurer shall decide which City Staff and outside professionals, when utilized, to include on the Finance Team. Critical outside professionals include: Underwriter: For negotiated sales, the Underwriter purchases the City’s debt and sells it to investors. Municipal Advisor: independent financial expert providing financial advice to the City on all aspects of debt. Bond Counsel: legal counsel that prepares the resolutions, ordinances, agreements and other legal documents required. Disclosure Counsel: provides legal advice on all disclosure documents and issues in connection to the financing. May be same entity that provides Bond Counsel services. Trustee: typically, a commercial bank or trust company responsible for the collection and repayment of principal and interest to bondholders, as well as administering the investment of reserve funds, accounting and disbursement of bond proceeds Special Tax Consultant: provide special district expertise, statistics, data analysis, and disclosure support in the issuance of Special District debt (e.g. Mello-Roos Community Facilities District and assessment district debt). Page 707 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 Appendix CITY DEBT POLICY 400 Selection of Outside Professionals The selection of the Financing Team shall be based upon qualifications, experience, and cost; typically, through a formal Request for Proposal (“RFP”) Process. Procurement of other services related to the issuance of debt shall be through a competitive bidding process whenever reasonable. Depending on circumstances it may be advantageous for the City to participate in a pooled debt issuance with a number of local agencies where issue costs are shared and the Financing Team are pre-selected by the managing organization. Due to the overall cost savings involved, programs such as the California Statewide Communities Development Authority’s “Tax and Revenue Anticipation Note” program are options for the City to consider. Use of Debt The City typically issues debt to fund long-term capital improvement projects and to refinance existing debt for debt service cost savings or other benefits. The City develops an annual capital improvement program (“CIP”) budget. The City will consider the use of debt financing primarily for projects included in the CIP when the project’s useful life will exceed the term of the financing and when ongoing resources are identified sufficient to fund the debt service requirements. The CIP shall provide the basis for determining long-term capital needs of the City and may be supplemented with longer term capital plans or master plans when appropriate. As necessary, the Finance Department shall work with the various City departments to develop financial forecasts related to the CIP to identify the optimal method to finance the program, including pay-as-you-go (“pay-go”) and/or the issuance of debt obligations Some exceptions to this CIP-driven focus are the issuance of debt such as Pension Obligation Bonds, where the financial benefits to pay the pension liability are estimated to be significantly greater than the costs and where the benefits are determined to be a financially prudent option; and short-term instruments such as tax and revenue anticipation notes, which are to be used for prudent cash management purposes. If a department has any project which is expected to use debt financing, the department director is responsible for expeditiously providing the Finance Department with reasonable cost estimates, including specific revenue accounts that will provide payment for the debt service. This will allow the Finance Department to analyze the project’s potential impact on the City’s debt capacity and limitations While the preferred means of financing projects is the pay-go method of using current revenues to pay for capital projects because it avoids financing costs, the City would be able to undertake capital projects under this method only if sufficient cash accumulates. Prudent use of debt financing rather than pay-go funding of capital projects distributes the cost of a project over its useful life, facilitates better allocation of resources, and increases financial flexibility. Debt can also be used in conjunction with pay-go financing to pay only a portion of the project using debt if insufficient funds are available from non-debt sources. Below are the conditions under which debt may be a better choice for the City: Low interest rates. Low interest rates mean a lower total cost of borrowing. Soft construction market. The community can benefit if the City uses debt to build more assets while construction costs are low. The asset has a long useful life. Assets that last a long time will benefit residents far into the future. It is fair for these future residents to help pay the cost of the asset by paying for some of the debt The City forecasts show that debt is affordable. Debt adds a long-term cost to the budget. However, the affordability of debt may be a more equitable method of funding the capital needs at the outset, and paying for the obligation over the long-term. Use of debt is consistent with legal and other limits. Applicable federal, state and local law and this policy (unless any provision of this policy is waived by City Council) describe limits that the City must observe. Bonded debt should not be issued for projects with minimal public benefit or support, or to finance normal operating expenses.

Below are important cases where debt should not be used: Paying for ongoing public services. Ongoing public services benefit current residents, but debt will be paid by future residents Life of the debt is longer than the life of the capital asset it funds. If the debt lasts longer than the capital asset, then future residents will pay for an asset that they do not benefit from. Cost of issuing debt is too high. The City has to pay certain costs and fees to issue debt These costs may outweigh the benefits that debt provides, especially for small capital projects. Relationship of Debt to Capital Improvement Program and Budget The City intends to issue debt for the purposes stated in this Debt Policy and to implement policy decisions incorporated in the City’s CIP. The City shall strive to fund the upkeep and maintenance of its infrastructure and facilities due to normal wear and tear through the expenditure of available operating revenues. The City shall seek to avoid the use of debt to fund infrastructure and facilities improvements that are the result of normal wear and tear, unless a specific revenue source has been identified for this purpose, such as Gas Tax. The City shall integrate its debt issuances with the goals of its CIP by timing the issuance of debt to ensure that projects are available when needed in furtherance of the City’s public purposes. The City shall seek to issue debt in a timely manner to avoid having to make unplanned expenditures for capital improvements or equipment from its General Fund. Policy Goals Related to Planning Goals and Objectives The City is committed to financial planning, maintaining appropriate reserve levels and employing prudent practices in governance, management and budget administration. The City intends to issue debt for the purposes stated in this Debt Policy and to implement policy decisions incorporated in the City’s annual operating budget. It is a policy goal of the City to protect taxpayers, ratepayers and residents by utilizing conservative financing methods and techniques to obtain the highest practical credit ratings (if applicable) and the lowest practical borrowing costs. The City will comply with applicable state and federal law as it pertains to the maximum term of debt and the procedures for levying and imposing any related taxes, assessments, rates and charges. Except as described under the caption “DEBT ISSUANCE” below, when refinancing debt, it shall be the policy goal of the City to realize, whenever practicable, minimum net present value debt service savings equal to or greater than 5% of the refunded principal amount. TYPES OF DEBT INSTRUMENTS In order to maximize the financial options available to benefit the public, it is the policy of the City to allow for the consideration of issuing all generally accepted types of debt, including, but not exclusively, the following: General Obligation (GO) Bonds: General Obligation Bonds are suitable for use in the construction or acquisition of improvements to real property that benefit the public at-large. Examples of projects include libraries, parks, and public safety facilities. Under current State law and the City Charter, GO bonds require a 2/3 vote of the electorate in order to pass Revenue Bonds: Revenue Bonds are special obligations tied to a specific enterprise revenue stream where the projects financed clearly benefit or relate to the enterprise. An example of projects that would be financed bya Revenue Bond would be improvements to the sewer system, which would be paid back with money raised from the property owner’s sewer bills. Generally, no voter approval is required to issue this type of obligation but any rate setting process for the enterprise must comply with Proposition 218. Lease Revenue Bonds (LRB)/Certificates of Participation (COP): LRBs and COPs are used to allow the City to finance projects. The LRBs and the COPs are secured by a lease from the City pursuant to which lease payments Page 709 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 Appendix CITY DEBT POLICY 402 are made and budgeted for annually in an appropriation typically from the General Fund. These lease financings do not constitute indebtedness under the State Constitution or the City Charter and do not require voter approval. Special Assessment/Special District Debt: the City will consider requests from developers for the use of debt financing secured by property-based assessments or special taxes in order to provide for necessary infrastructure for new development only under strict guidelines adopted by the City Council, which may include minimum value-to-lien ratios and maximum tax burdens. Examples of this type of debt are Assessment Districts (AD) and Community Facilities Districts (CFD) (also known as Mello-Roos Districts). In order to protect bondholders and limit reputational risk to the City, the Rate and Method of Apportionment of Special Tax for any City CFD must include provisions that will result in maximum projected annual special tax revenues of not less than 110% of the projected annual gross debt service on any bonds of the CFD. The City will also comply with all State guidelines regarding the issuance of special district or special assessment debt. For further information, refer to the City of Chula Vista Policy No. 505-04, last updated October 24, 2023, titled “Statement of Goals and Policies Regarding Establishment of Community Facility Districts”. Industrial Development Bonds: Industrial Development Bonds (IDBs) are tax-exempt securities which can fund manufacturing businesses or energy development projects which provides a public benefit. While the authorization to issue IDBs is provided by a state statute, the tax-exempt status of these bonds is derived from federal law (IRS Code Section 103(b) (2)). Tax Allocation Bonds: Tax Allocation Bonds are special obligations that are secured by the allocation of tax increment revenues that were generated by increased property taxes in the designated redevelopment area. Tax Allocation Bonds are not debt of the City. Due to changes in the law affecting California Redevelopment agencies with the passage of ABX1 26 as codified in the California Health and Safety Code, the City of Chula Vista Redevelopment Agency (RDA) was dissolved as of February 1, 2012, and its operations substantially eliminated but for the continuation of certain enforceable RDA obligations to be administered by the City of Chula Vista Successor Agency. The terms of ABX1 26 require successor agencies to perform all obligations with respect to enforceable debt obligations, which include Tax Allocation Bonds. Multi-Family Mortgage Revenue Bonds: The City Housing Authority is authorized to issue mortgage revenue bonds to finance the development, acquisition and rehabilitation of multi-family rental projects. The interest on the bonds can be exempt from federal and state taxation. As a result, bonds provide below market financing for qualified rental projects. In addition, the bonds issued can qualify projects for allocations of federal low-income housing tax credits, which can provide a significant portion of the funding necessary to develop affordable housing. For further information, refer to the Chula Vista Housing Authority – Multi-Family Administrative Bond Policies HUD Section 108 Loan Guarantee Program: The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Section 108 Loan Guarantee Program allows cities to use their annual Community Development Block Grant CDBG) entitlement grants to obtain federally guaranteed funds large enough to stimulate or pay for major community development and economic development projects. The program does not require a pledge of the City’s General Fund, only of future CDBG entitlements. By pledging future CDBG entitlement grants as security, the City can borrow at favorable interest rates because of HUD’s guarantee of repayment to investors. Pension Obligation Bonds: Pension Obligation Bonds (POB) are bonds (usually taxable) which are issued to finance an unfunded pension liability of the entity. Small-Equipment Lease Financing. The City may employ small equipment lease financing at the request of City departments after analysis and due-diligence review by the Finance Department. Requests from City departments must demonstrate the need (e.g., legal, environmental, cash flow) for small equipment lease financing, and the City departments must provide realistic, projected drawdown schedules showing that borrowed funds will be spent in accordance with requirements of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), if applicable. State and Federal Loans. From time-to-time, the State and the federal government offer loan programs for specified types of projects which may be at subsidized interest rates. The City may obtain such loans to be repaid from the revenues of the enterprise to which the financed project relates or from the City’s General Fund, as Page 710 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 Appendix CITY DEBT POLICY 403 applicable. Such loans may be structured as installment sale agreements, lease revenue bonds or such structure as the City may deem appropriate to comply with applicable law. DEBT AFFORDABILITY AND LIMITATIONS Debt capacity and affordability will be determined by conducting various analyses prior to the issuance of bonds. The analysis of debt capacity should cover a broad range of factors including but not limited to the following: Statutory or constitutional limitations affecting the amount that can be issued, such as legally authorized debt limits and tax or expenditure ceilings. Other legal limitations, such as coverage requirements or additional bonds tests imposed by bond covenants. Evaluation of trends relating to the government’s financial performance, such as revenues and expenditures, net revenues available after meeting operating requirements, reliability of revenues expected to pay debt service and unreserved fund balance levels. Debt service as a percentage of total General Fund revenues. Assessed valuation of property within the City. With respect to General Fund-backed obligations, the City will attempt to limit the total amount of annual debt service payments payable by the General Fund to no more than 10% of estimated total General Fund revenues. In addition, in analyzing the affordability of debt to be repaid from the General Fund, the City should take into consideration other long-term costs which are also paid from the General Fund, such as pension costs. With respect to general obligation bonds, state law and the City’s Charter limit the amount of general obligation bonds to be issued to 15% or less of total assessed valuation within the City. With respect to enterprise financings, in accordance with bond covenants, the revenues generated by the applicable enterprise should be sufficient to maintain the required coverage levels. With respect to small-equipment lease financings, consideration should be given to the burden on the fund expected to repay the financing and the impact on the General Fund, if any. An analysis using current market rates and conservative projections showing compliance with the debt affordability limitations included in this Debt Policy shall be conducted before the issuance of any debt with a maturity longer than two years from date of issue. Data showing direct and overlapping debt levels for the City and surrounding agencies that affect the residents of the City shall be compiled for inclusion in the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report of the City. DEBT STRUCTURING In order to maximize financial flexibility in a constantly-changing debt market, the City shall be allowed to structure its debt issuances using generally accepted methods for municipalities The guiding principal shall be to structure debt issuances so that the City’s overall costs are minimized while still maintaining or increasing the City’s credit rating. Allowable structures include, but are not limited to the issuance of: Serial and/or Term Bonds: Serial Bonds are those in an issue that mature in consecutive years, whereas Term Bonds come due in a single maturity but are paid in part each year from sinking fund installments. Fixed and Variable Rate Debt: Fixed rate debt is when an interest rate on a security does not change for the remaining life of the security, where variable rate debt or “floating rate” changes at intervals according to market conditions or a predetermined index or formula. Capital Appreciation/Zero Coupon Bonds: Capital Appreciation/Zero Coupon Bonds are bonds sold at an original issue discount on which no periodic interest payments are made prior to maturity. Interest compounds semiannually at a stated interest rate. At maturity the original principal amount plus all accreted interest is paid to the investor. Bonds with Capitalized Interest: Bonds with capitalized interest have a portion of the proceeds of an issue set aside to pay interest on the bonds for a specified period of time. Page 711 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 Appendix CITY DEBT POLICY 404 Senior and Junior Lien Structures: Senior lien bonds have a priority claim against pledged revenues, while junior lien bonds have a subordinate claim against pledged revenues or other security. Debt service should be structured so that annual combined principal and interest payments do not dramatically vary year over year resulting in greater budget stability. Limited exceptions from level debt service will be allowed for individual debt issues when level debt service is unsuitable; for instance in the case of some refunding of debt, or when a policy decision is made to use variable rate debt. Redemption provisions should generally be included in most issuances, providing they are structured in a reasonable and cost-efficient manner as determined by the Director of Finance/Treasurer, or designee. Redemption options include but are not limited to: Optional Redemption: a call or prepayment provision option that is given to the issuer, often only on or after a specified date. Mandatory Redemption: a call or prepayment provision requiring the issuer to redeem or call the bond “in-whole” which is all at once, or “in part” which is only a portion on a scheduled basis. Credit enhancement, such as letters of credit or bond insurance, may be purchased when the cost of enhancement is more than recovered by the debt service savings created. Entering into a financing utilizing letters of credit or insurance must be planned for and determined to be feasible by the Director of Finance/Treasurer, or designee. Maximum Maturity Debt obligations shall have a maximum maturity of the earlier of: the reasonably estimated useful life of the capital improvements being financed; or, thirty years; or, in the event they are being issued to refinance outstanding debt obligations, the final maturity of the debt obligations being refinanced, unless a longer term is recommended by the Finance Team. Such other terms which meet the financing goals of the debt issuance. The term of any debt issued should not exceed the useful life the asset is funding. The average weighted bond maturities of all debt should be 25 years or less. DEBT ISSUANCE The City will strive to minimize borrowing costs by: Seeking the highest credit rating possible; Maintaining transparency and excellent communications with credit rating agencies regarding the City’s fiscal condition; Purchasing bond insurance or taking action to upgrade the City’s current credit rating. It shall be the policy of the City to allow the issuance of debt through public sale or private placement, and via competitive or negotiated sales underwriting methods. Consistent with the goal of minimizing costs, competitive sale shall be evaluated and utilized unless the Director of Finance/Treasurer decides that a negotiated sale is warranted. Factors that may impact this decision include: Issuer/Issue Recognition: competitive sales are easier for an issuer that investors and underwriters are familiar with. If extensive marketing is needed to educate the market about the issuer or the specific credit to be sold, a negotiated sale maybe more appropriate. Similarly, even if the issuer is well-known, if the issue itself has a “story” that needs to be told, a negotiated sale may be needed to enhance the marketing and acceptance of the debt. Issue Size: very large or very small deals may benefit from a negotiated sale over a competitive sale. Debt Type: GO bonds and other well-known debt structures are generally suitable for competitive sales. Others such as CFDs, variable rate, or innovative structures may benefit from a negotiated sale. Page 712 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 Appendix CITY DEBT POLICY 405 Credit Ratings: issuers with high credit ratings and insured bonds lend themselves to competitive sales. Unrated or lower rated issues are often more suitable for negotiated sales. Market Conditions and Sale Timing: during periods of stable interest rates, market timing is not as critical. However, during times of market uncertainty when conditions are volatile, the timing of the sale becomes more critical. Bond refundings are often very interest rate sensitive in terms of potential level of savings or the general feasibility of the refunding. A negotiated sale provides more flexibility in terms of the structure and timing of the bond sale and may be more appropriate when issuing refunding bonds and when interest rates are volatile. Refunding bonds are issued to retire all or a portion of an outstanding bond issue, typically to refinance at a lower interest rate and reduce debt service payment costs. Alternatively, a refunding transaction may be undertaken for reasons other than to achieve cost savings, such as to restructure debt service payments, to change the type of debt instruments being used, or to eliminate undesirable covenants. In any event, a present value savings analysis shall be prepared that identifies the financial effects of any refunding being considered. The City will seek to issue refunding bonds with the minimum goal of 5% net present value savings of the principal amount of the refunded bonds. Anything less than an anticipated 5% savings will require additional analysis discussing the benefits of the refunding due to the cost associated with refunding debt, which may include benefits to the City apart from debt service savings (including, but not limited to, eliminating restrictive or burdensome covenants or restructuring debt to shorten/lengthen the term of the debt). Consideration shall be given to the benefit of delaying a refunding in a declining interest rate environment to capture maximum savings at the least cost. A periodic review of the City’s outstanding debt will be performed by the Finance Department to identify potential refunding opportunities DEBT MANAGEMENT PRACTICES Internal Control Procedures When issuing debt, in addition to complying with the terms of this Debt Policy, the City shall comply with any other applicable policies regarding initial bond disclosure, continuing disclosure, post-issuance compliance, and investment of bond proceeds. The Director of Finance/Treasurer shall be the Officer of the City charged with primary responsibility for administering and implementing these internal control procedures The City will periodically review the requirements of and will remain in compliance with the following: Any continuing disclosure undertakings under Rule 15c2-12 of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Any federal tax compliance requirements, including without limitation arbitrage and rebate compliance, and The City’s investment policies as they relate to the investment of bond proceeds. With respect to LRBs or COPs which involve the leasing of City property, the restrictions on the use of the leased property as set forth in the financing leases. Disclosure The City will comply with SEC Rule 15(c) 2-12 and provide timely disclosure of relevant information on an annual basis as well as any event notices as required. The City will fulfill its obligations as covenanted in all continuing disclosure undertakings associated with any outstanding debt obligations. Documents are distributed through the Electronic Municipal Market Access (EMMA) website which can be viewed at any time by the public. The City recognizes the importance of accuracy in disclosure documents and will strive to provide full and complete disclosure. To ensure accuracy of stated facts, directors of any department that originally provided or produced any data appearing in an offering document for the City’s debt will provide a written statement certifying the accuracy of their department’s data along with a statement denying knowledge of any misstatements or material omissions in the remainder of the disclosure document. The City has adopted disclosure policies and procedures which set forth in greater detail the City’s processes with respect to producing information for offering documents and continuing disclosure filings. Page 713 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 Appendix CITY DEBT POLICY 406 Arbitrage In the past, agencies took advantage of their ability to borrow at tax-exempt rates and invest the proceeds at higher rates, thus earning positive arbitrage. Since 1986, the federal tax code requires issuers of long-term, tax-exempt debt to rebate positive arbitrage to the federal government under certain circumstances. The City will diligently monitor its compliance with all federal arbitrage regulations. Due to the complex nature of arbitrage calculations, the City may elect to hire an outside expert consultant to perform this function. Compliance with Tax Law Provisions The City will diligently monitor its compliance with all bond legal covenants, as well as federal and state requirements, with the assistance of its Finance Team and consultants. Furthermore, recognizing that the smallest of mistakes can lead to the appearance of conflicts of interest or wrongdoing, which in turn may lead to severe consequences, including criminal charges, the City will make every effort to ensure its debt financing conduct is above reproach. Investment of Bond Proceeds The City shall comply with all federal, state, and indenture restrictions, if any, regarding the use and investment of bond proceeds. Each issue shall detail allowable investments within the authorizing resolution or applicable financing documents, to which the City will adhere. Where not specifically spelled out, the City will apply the City investment policy guiding principal commonly referred to as “SLY:” Safety, Liquidity, and Yield, in that order of priority. Records Retention The City will retain records sufficient to demonstrate compliance with the requirements of federal and State law necessary to preserve the tax-exempt nature of any City debt for the period required by law, presently understood to be the life of the debt obligations or any succeeding refunding obligations plus 3 years Other Provisions Bond proceeds, reserve, and repayment funds, should have separate accounting from operating or other funds, at a level distinct enough to facilitate arbitrage compliance calculations and ease of debt service and expenditure tracking. Whenever reasonably possible, proceeds of debt will be held by a third-party trustee and the City will submit written requisitions for such proceeds. The City will submit a requisition only after obtaining the signature of the City Manager or the Director of Finance/Treasurer. The maximum size of a debt service reserve funded from tax-exempt bond proceeds allowed under federal tax law, is the lesser of (1) ten percent (10%) of the issuance amount (par); (2) one-hundred-twenty-five percent (125%) of the average annual debt service; or (3) maximum annual debt service. The City shall have the option to issue debt with a debt service reserve fund that is less than the maximum allowable or without a reserve. The City Manager or the Director of Finance/Treasurer shall have the authority to determine whether to establish a debt service reserve fund, the size of any debt service reserve fund, and the investments to be purchased within the reserve. Factors to consider include the cost of a debt service reserve fund over the life of the bonds compared to expected interest earnings, and bond pricing and credit rating impacts. A debt service reserve may be funded with a surety policy when economically feasible, as determined by the Director of Finance/Treasurer If any part of this Debt Policy conflict with federal or state laws, or the City of Chula Vista Municipal Code, or Charter, such provisions will take precedence over this Debt Policy. RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER POLICIES The City has adopted Policy No. 505-04, last updated October 24, 2023, titled “Statement of Goals and Policies Regarding Establishment of Community Facility Districts” for the Use of The Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982, included as Exhibit A hereto. Special Tax Bonds issued on behalf of a CFD will also comply with these policy requirements, as applicable.

Upon a majority vote of the City Council, one or more provisions of this Debt Policy may be waived for a debt financing. The failure of a debt financing to comply with one or more provisions of this Debt Policy shall in no way affect the validity of any debt issued by the City in accordance with applicable laws. Council Policy 220-05. Last updated November 12, 2024 via Council Resolution 2024-218.

As economic cycles occur and City revenues rise and fall, it becomes a challenge to maintain service levels and implement a sustainable budget. In accordance with the City of Chula Vista’s budget priorities and Strategic Plan, the fiscal year 2027 Proposed Budget includes various changes in how services are funded and delivered. Departmental service impacts are highlighted in the Department Summary Reports section of this document under Significant Budget Adjustments & Service Impacts. Highlights of changes in services funding are described below. Services Funding In general, local governments provide many services to the general population at no charge, such as public safety, libraries, and roadways and park maintenance. These services are paid for with general revenues that the City receives, including taxes, charges for services, user fees and a variety of other smaller types of general revenues. Tax Changes Tax revenue is generally unrestricted and allocated to the City’s General Fund for programming expenditures. The City collects several types of tax revenue, such as property tax, sales tax, utility users’ tax, business license tax and transient occupancy tax. A discussion on the City’s major revenue sources, legislative factors and trends impacting these revenues is provided in the General Fund Revenue Summary section of this document There are no changes in tax rates planned for Fiscal Year 2027. Fees Changes Cities also offer many services that provide a specific benefit to the requesting party, for which a fee is assessed. Development plans review, building inspections, golf greens, and public park space rentals are examples of some of the services the City provides that are paid for directly by the public—residents, non-residents, businesses, developers, etc.–based on receiving a specific benefit. The City’s Master Fee Schedule was adopted to set the fees for a variety of services the City provides directly to the public. Fees levels are generally regulated by state laws (Propositions 13, 26 and 218) and the Citywide Cost Recovery Policy 159-03. City fees may not exceed the reasonable cost of providing a service/benefit (with exceptions) and are to be periodically reviewed in order to keep pace with changes in the cost of living (Consumer Price Index) and methods or levels of service delivery. All changes to the Master Fee Schedule are approved by City Council. The full Master Fee Schedule can be accessed at the following link: www.chulavistaca.gov/departments/finance/ master-fee-schedule Changes made to the Master Fee Schedule and other charges for services during the Fiscal year 2026 and during the development of the Fiscal Year 2027 Proposed Budget are described in the table below. Page 727 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 Appendix SERVICE IMPACTS 420 Description Change Fund Impact Justification Development & In-Lieu Fees Varies; See Master Fee Schedule Chapter 16: Development & In-Lieu Fees The City of Chula Vista has experienced tremendous growth in recent decades that brings demand for additional public facilities to meet the needs of residents, workers, consumers, and all those who visit our beautiful City. To ensure new growth pays its proportionate share of needed expansions and upgrades to infrastructure and facilities, the City assesses Development Impact Fees DIFs) and in-lieu fees on building permits for new development in the City In California, the Mitigation Fee Act (Government Code §§66000-66025) and the Quimby Act Government Code §66477) allow the City to assess development impact fees (DIFs) and in- lieu fees The fee rates are calculated to ensure that they are assessed proportional to the impact created by new development, and the proceeds from these fees can only be spent on expanding or upgrading infrastructure that can be used by the occupants of the new development in the DIF’s “area of benefit.” Several City administered DIF and in-lieu fees are subject to an annual automatic rate increase, as determined by a given published index. Fees are calculated by identifying a connection between the need for the new or expanded public facilities paid for by the DIF and the forecasted impact of growth in that DIF’s area of benefit. Fees are adjusted annually, effective October 1, usually using Engineering News Record’s (ENR) Historical Construction Cost Indices (CCI). DIFs may be periodically reviewed and updated by City Council to accommodate rising construction costs and changes in growth or need for facilities. Recreation Fees Master Fee Schedule Chapter 7 Recreation Fees: All General & Program Fees and Facility User Fees were increased by 3.8% in fiscal year 2026. City policy is to set fees given the full cost of each service, allowing optimum cost-recovery rates for certain services and alleviating unintended subsidization of these services from General Fund resources. Fee levels are set to align with the reasonable cost of providing the related services, resulting in no net fund impact The Citywide Cost Recovery Policy is to periodically review fees to keep pace with changes in the cost of living and methods or levels of service delivery at least every five years. These fee adjustments are necessary to align with changes in the San Diego area’s Consumer Price Index (CPI). Sewer Service Charge Sewer Rates) Rate increase of 5% starting July 1, 2024, and an increase of 5.5% starting July 1, 2025. Sewer Service Revenue and Trunk Sewer Capital Funds will increase revenues via rate increases through FY 2025-26 to ensure sewer expenses are covered and reserves met Based on an independent financial rate study of the City’s sewer services, rate increases are needed to fund the cost of operating and maintaining the City’s sewer collection system, investment in the infrastructure needed to provide the service consistent with applicable federal, state, and local laws, and to ensure adequate financial reserves.

The budget is comprised of a series of funds used to account for revenues and expenditures. These funds are generally categorized as governmental or proprietary funds. Funds Structure Governmental funds include activities associated with the operations of the City such as the provision of library, recreation, and public safety services. Special revenue funds, capital project funds, debt service funds, and the City’s general fund are different types of governmental funds. Proprietary funds are used to account for activities often found in the private sector including two fund types: enterprise funds and internal service funds. Operations of the development service and sewer systems are accounted for as enterprise funds. Examples of functions accounted for by internal service funds include fleet management and workers’ compensation. Fiduciary funds are used to account for resources held for the benefit of parties outside the City and are not available to support the City’s own programs. One fiduciary fund is budgeted to report assets, liabilities, and activities of the Successor Agency to the Chula Vista Redevelopment Agency. Budget Book Organization The budget document is organized around the following major funds – General Fund, Development Services Fund, Redevelopment Retirement Obligation Fund and Successor Agency to the Redevelopment Agency Funds, Sewer Funds, Fleet Service Funds, Capital Projects Funds, Debt Service Funds, and Other Funds. Details about each of these funds can be found in the corresponding sections of the document City of Chula Vista Fund Structure Page 731 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda City of Chula Vista Proposed Budget FY 2027 Appendix ACCOUNTING SYSTEMS AND BUDGETARY CONTROL 424 Each fund is considered an autonomous accounting entity. Funds are used to separate the various financial activities of the City and to demonstrate compliance with specific regulations, restrictions, or limitations. This may include demonstrating that restricted revenues are spent only for allowable purposes. Basis of Accounting & Budgeting The City’s accounting records and budget are prepared and maintained using a modified accrual basis of accounting– less unrealized gains or losses resulting from the change in fair value of investments–which follows the accounting practices for governmental units as recommended by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board. Basic City operations are accounted for in the City’s General Fund, with other activities accounted for in separate funds as required by law or determined by management discretion. Generally, revenues are recorded when measurable and available, and liabilities are recorded when incurred. Internal Controls In administering the City’s accounting systems, primary consideration is given to the adequacy of internal accounting controls, which include an array of administrative procedures. These controls are designed to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance regarding the safeguarding of assets against loss from unauthorized use or disposition, as well as the reliability of financial records for accurate and fair presentation of financial reports. The concept of reasonable assurance recognizes that the cost of specific controls should not exceed the benefits likely to be derived from exercising the controls, and that this evaluation necessarily involves estimates and judgments by management. It is believed that the City’s internal accounting controls adequately safeguard City assets and provide reasonable assurance of proper recording of financial transactions. Budgetary Control The City Charter charges the Director of Finance with the responsibility to supervise and be responsible for the disbursement of all monies and have control over all expenditures to ensure that budget appropriations are not exceeded. The level of budgetary control, that is the level at which expenditures are not to exceed Council approved appropriations, is established at the department and expenditure category level (e.g., personnel services, supplies and services, capital). Budget Modifications Any budget modification that would result in an appropriation increase requires City Council approval. The City Manager and Finance Director are jointly authorized to transfer up to $75,000 of appropriations between expenditure categories within a departmental budget. City Council approval via resolution is required for: 1) any appropriations transfer between departments; 2) appropriations transfers in excess of $75,000; and 3) appropriations transfers from CIP projects. Encumbrances An encumbrance (commitment) accounting system is utilized as a technique to enhance budgetary control during the fiscal year. Appropriations encumbered (committed) at year-end may be carried forward with City Manager approval and are available to be used for those commitments during the subsequent fiscal year. Unspent and unencumbered appropriations lapse at year-end and become generally available for re-appropriation the following fiscal year.

Therefore, pursuant to State Guidelines Section 15060(c)(3) no environmental review is required. Recommended Action Hear report and provide direction to staff on City position on Assembly Bill 2484: San Diego Metropolitan Transit System: transactions and use tax: voter initiatives. Possible positions include support, support if amended, oppose, oppose unless amended, or no position. SUMMARY The Mills-Deddeh Transit Development Act establishes the San Diego Metropolitan Transit Development Board (also known as MTS), governed by a 15-member board with specified powers and duties related to the operation of public transit services in the southern portion of the County of San Diego. The act authorizes MTS to impose a transactions and use tax of up to 0.5% for public transit purposes within its jurisdiction, or a portion of its jurisdiction, pursuant to the Transactions and Use Tax Law and subject to voter approval. On March 24, 2026, Assemblymember David Alvarez introduced Assembly Bill (AB) 2484 titled “San Diego Metropolitan Transit System: transactions and use tax: voter initiatives” which seeks to amend MTS’s enabling statutes to confirm a transactions and use tax may be imposed by a qualified voter initiative. Page 784 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda P a g e | 2 ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The proposed activity has been reviewed for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”), and it has been 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. DISCUSSION The San Diego Metropolitan Transit System (MTS) is San Diego's regional public transportation provider serving approximately three million people across ten cities and portions of unincorporated San Diego County. MTS connects communities to employment, education, healthcare, housing, special events, and binational economic opportunities. Public transit in San Diego is not only a mobility service, it is an economic engine, a climate solution, and a lifeline for working families. Since the COVID-19 pandemic, MTS has recovered more than 95 percent of its pre-COVID ridership and now ranks among the top transit systems nationwide for ridership recovery. Despite this progress, MTS is facing an impending fiscal cliff driven by pandemic-related revenue losses, rising workforce expenses, higher operating costs, flat sales tax revenues, and limited local funding. MTS has dev eloped a comprehensive financial sustainability strategy to delay its fiscal cliff and allow for more time to seek and pursue additional funding. Assembly Bill 2484 Assembly Bill (AB) 2484 introduced by Assemblymember David Alvarez (co-authored by Assemblymember Chris Ward) seeks to amend MTS’s enabling statutes related to transactions and use tax authority to: 1) confirm the imposition of a voter-approved retail transactions and use tax of up to one-half of one percent dedicated exclusively to transportation and public transit purposes, as authorized by Section 120480 of the Public Utilities Code (Section 120480), may also be imposed by a qualified voter initiative ; and 2) exclude the Section 120480 voter-approved tax rate from being considered for purposes of the combined rate limit under Section 7251.1 of the Revenue and Taxation Code. This legislation does not impose a tax. According to MTS, AB 2484 would provide a critical tool to allow local voters the opportunity to determine whether to invest in transit in San Diego. Chula Vista Legislative Platform The City Council-approved Legislative Platform establishes the City’s support of efforts to protect dedicated transportation and public transit funds. This legislation seeks to provide the ability to create a new dedicated fund via voter initiative, therefore outside the scope of the Platform. Staff seeks direction from City Council on the City’s position on AB 2484.

Gov't Code § 87100, et seq.).

San Diego Metropolitan Transit System: transactions and use tax: voter initiatives. The Mills-Deddeh Transit Development Act establishes the San Diego Metropolitan Transit Development Board, also known as the San Diego Metropolitan Transit System (MTS), governed by a 15-member board with specified powers and duties related to the operation of public transit services in the southern portion of the County of San Diego. The act authorizes MTS to impose a transactions and use tax of up to 0.5% for public transit purposes within its jurisdiction, or a portion of its jurisdiction, pursuant to the Transactions and Use Tax Law and subject to voter approval and various other requirements. This bill would also authorize those taxes to be imposed by a qualified voter initiative. To the extent that the bill would impose additional duties on a county elections official, the bill would impose a state-mandated local program. The Transactions and Use Tax Law limits the combined rate of all taxes that may be imposed in accordance with that law in any county to 2%. 98 Page 787 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda This bill would prohibit the tax rate of 0.5% described above that may be imposed by MTS or a qualified voter initiative from being considered for purposes of the combined rate limit under the Transactions and Use Tax Law. The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement. This bill would provide that, if the Commission on State Mandates determines that the bill contains costs mandated by the state, reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to the statutory provisions noted above. Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: yes. State-mandated local program: yes. The people of the State of California do enact as follows: line 1 SECTION 1. The Legislature finds and declares all of the line 2 following: line 3 (a) The San Diego Metropolitan Transit System, also referred line 4 to as MTS, provides public transit services to the urbanized areas line 5 of the County of San Diego, including 10 cities and a portion of line 6 the unincorporated areas of the county, serving approximately line 7 3,000,000 people in the County of San Diego. line 8 (b) MTS connects to other local and regional transportation line 9 systems in southern California. line 10 (c) The MTS transit network is a critical component of the line 11 overall transportation network in the County of San Diego, and line 12 as such MTS has aggressively taken steps to improve and optimize line 13 public transportation for the benefit of all communities in the line 14 County of San Diego. line 15 (d) Through these improvements, MTS has realized a strong line 16 transit ridership recovery, having recovered more than 95 percent line 17 of its ridership compared to pre-COVID-19 levels and recording line 18 81.1 million trips in the 2025–26 fiscal year. line 19 (e) MTS has prioritized ridership recovery lost from the line 20 COVID-19 pandemic, rising eight spots nationwide to the 13th line 21 ranked system on ridership as of the 2025–26 fiscal year. line 22 (f) While MTS has seen success and ridership growth since the line 23 COVID-19 pandemic, it is still experiencing a structural deficit 98 — 2 — AB 2484 Page 788 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda line 1 and approaching what is commonly known as the transit fiscal line 2 cliff in 2030. line 3 (g) Since the COVID-19 pandemic, MTS has seen the onset of line 4 a fiscal cliff due to reasons such as regaining lost ridership from line 5 the pandemic, rising workforce costs, higher operating expenses, line 6 flat sales tax revenues, and limited local funding. line 7 (h) MTS has developed a comprehensive financial sustainability line 8 strategy to delay its fiscal cliff to the 2030–31 fiscal year. This line 9 includes delaying noncritical infrastructure improvements, finding line 10 more sources of nonfare revenue, such as advertising and property line 11 leases, extending timelines for pension bond payments, exploring line 12 fare increase opportunities, and more. line 13 (i) Also, as part of the financial sustainability strategy, MTS is line 14 pursuing a Comprehensive Operational Analysis to analyze MTS line 15 services and to provide strategic data necessary for making line 16 decisions on major network changes, while also exploring viability line 17 of a local revenue measure in 2028. line 18 (j) The County of San Diego is at the forefront of housing line 19 expansion and leads the state in housing production per capita. line 20 MTS has contributed to regional housing goals in the County of line 21 San Diego with its own Transit-Oriented Development Program line 22 with a focus on affordable housing. MTS has built 476 homes since line 23 2019, is under construction on 79 homes, has 147 homes at the line 24 permitting and financing stage, and has 929 homes in the line 25 negotiation stage. line 26 (k) Continuing this housing growth requires robust transit line 27 service to match and ultimately grow with the region to sustain line 28 the needs of its residents, particularly those who are transit line 29 dependent, of which 78 percent of MTS ridership is classified. line 30 (l) Public transit is of regional and local benefit, serving both line 31 regional and local trips for residents of all income levels. As of line 32 the most recent customer survey, more than two-thirds of current line 33 MTS riders are using bus and trolley services primarily to access line 34 jobs or education. line 35 (m) MTS plays a vital role in transportation access to major line 36 events, conventions, and sports and entertainment venues in the line 37 San Diego region, including Comic-Con, Snapdragon Stadium, line 38 and Petco Park, enabling residents, workers, and visitors to attend line 39 sporting events and other large-scale gatherings while reducing line 40 traffic congestion, parking demand, and greenhouse gas emissions. 98 AB 2484 — 3 — Page 789 of 800 City of Chula Vista - City Council May 5, 2026 Post City Council/Successor Agency to the RDA/Housing Authority Agenda line 1 In the 2025–26 fiscal year, MTS provided roughly over 1,000,000 line 2 trips to special events in the San Diego region. line 3 (n) The County of San Diego needs a world-class, reliable, line 4 affordable, and connected transportation network that meets the line 5 needs of San Diego residents, businesses, and visitors while also line 6 helping combat the climate crisis. Furthermore, MTS serves as a line 7 critical binational economic connector between the United States line 8 and Mexico at the busiest land port of entry in the Western line 9 Hemisphere. MTS carries more than one-half of the pedestrians line 10 crossing every day at the Otay Mesa and San Ysidro ports of entry. line 11 (o) The County of San Diego needs a public transit network that line 12 offers safe, clean, frequent, accessible, easy-to-navigate, and line 13 reliable service that gets transit riders where they want and need line 14 to go safely, affordably, quickly, and seamlessly. line 15 (p) Preserving, improving, and expanding public transit to line 16 ensure a world-class transit network is critical to enhance access line 17 to opportunity, lower emissions of greenhouse gases, strengthen line 18 the region’s economy, support increased housing production, and line 19 improve quality of life. line 20 (q) To achieve these goals, local funding is critical to sustaining line 21 and improving public transit service in the County of San Diego line 22 for future generations to come. line 23 (r) This act is critical to ensure ample time for planning and line 24 preparation in advance of a local funding initiative effort. line 25 SECTION 1. line 26 SEC. 2.
