WHEREAS, staff recommends the informal consultant selection procedure should be
waived, as set forth in Municipal Code Sections 2.56.11 OD, because, due to RSG's knowledge of
the City, expertise in its field of expertise, and the nature of its on-going work with the City, a
waiver would best serve the City's interest and it would be impractical to solicit proposals.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council and Redevelopment
Agency of the City of Chula Vista hereby approve the First Amendment to the Original
Agreement with Rosenow Spevacek Group to serve as financial and economic advisors.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Council and Redevelopment Agency of the
City of Chula Vista authorize the Mayor to execute the First Amendment to the Original
Agreement.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Council authorize the appropriation of funds
requested by staff, as set forth above in this resolution.
