RESOLUTION NO. 2004-281
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
CHULA VISTA WAIVING THE CONSULTANT SELECTION
PROCESS AS IMPRACTICAL AND APPROVING
AGREEMENTS WITH BRUCE HULL AND ASSOCIATES
FOR APPRAISAL SERVICES, THE MEYERS GROUP FOR
MARKET ABSORPTION SERVICES AND MCGILL MARTIN
SELF, INC. FOR SPECIAL TAX CONSULTANT AND
AUDITING SERVICES FOR COMMUNITY FACILITIES
DISTRICTS WITHIN THE CITY FOR THE NEXT THREE
YEARS
WHEREAS, the City began using the Mello Roos Act to fund infrastructure with
Community Facilities Districts (CFD's) in 1997; and
WHEREAS, there are at least six CFD bond sales proposed for the next three years; and
WHEREAS, due to the inherent complexities of this type of financing, the City has
historically utilized the same or primarily the same team of consults; and
WHEREAS, staff recominends that the City's consultant selection process for project
management and special tax consultant services be waived in the interest of providing a team:
I) That has provided consultant services to the City for the past three years;
2) That has demonstrated a deep and umque understanding of the dynamics of a
regional market place and understands the potential of the proposed development
projects in the Eastern Territories within that market, and
3) That has mastered a umque understanding of the development issues in the City
of Chula Vista particularly as they relate to the City's eastern territories.
WHEREAS, sometimes there are delays in the formation of CFD's when the developer
finds it prudent to wait after the bulk of the consultants' efforts are complete; and
WHEREAS, because bond buyers require updated and recent information, there could be
cost increases for the consultants if they have to produce new documents.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED the City Council of the City of Chula Vista
does hereby waive the consultant selection process as impractical and approve the agreements
with Bruce Hull and Associates, Inc. for appraisal services ($120,000), The Meyers Group for
Market Absorption services ($60,000), and McGill Martin Self, Inc. for CFD special tax
consultant and auditing services ($449,000), copies of which shall be kept on file in the office of
the City Clerk.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Manger is hereby authorized to increase the
scope of work and compensation for any or all of the three agreements provided that the increase
associated with a particular contract does not exceed $50,000, or 25% ofthe contract's maximum
allowable compensation, whichever is lower.
