PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE TO THE FLAG AND MOMENT OF SILENCE
WORKSHOP
1. MOBILEHOME PARKS IN CHULA VISTA
The Council explored mobilehome park matters with the mobilehome park community.
Assistant City Manager Thomson introduced Planning and Building Director Sandoval; Assistant
Director of Building and Housing Remp; Chris Anderson, Field Operations Manager for the
State Department of Housing and Community Development; and Housing Manager Mills.
Councilmember Castaneda thanked the Mayor and City Manager for expediting the workshop.
He stated that the Council would be diligent in working with staff to address any issues and
forging a working relationship with the mobilehome residents.
Councilmember Chavez announced that translation services were available for the meeting.
The following members of the public ceded their time to Fred Dufresne: James P. Cucinotta,
Jean Lorenz, Trish Smith, Helen Thompson, Dorie Radichel, Connie V. Seelig, Buster Blair,
Ann Umbrell, Dennis Holland, Evelyn Holland, Joan Cucinotta.
Mr. Dufresne expressed concern with the lack of enforcement of state laws related to
mobilehome parks. He stated that the mobilehome parks and mobilehomes have deteriorated,
and that park owners are supposed to enforce the state's Title 25 and health and safety codes. He
stated that the City's Code Enforcement staff must enforce laws set by the legislature and not
interpret the laws as they feel appropriate. He said that dealers are moving mobilehomes onto
I
lots without permits or inspection by park managers or code enforcement staff to confirm the
accuracy of plot plans. Mr. Dufresne displayed photographs of what he believed to be violations
of mobilehome health and safety codes, and he expressed concern about fire truck accessibility
because of the narrow separation between units. He stated that after violations are reported to
the City, permits are granted after the fact, with no fines imposed. Mobilehomes are being
placed on lots that are too small in every park in the City; and since many of the park owners are
their own realtors, they buy and sell homes, put in new ones, double the price for the homes, and
raise new renta to whatever price they want. He also stated that park owners are not permitting
mobilehome owners to sell their homes inside the parks; they want the homeowners to move the
mobilehomes, or alternatively, the mobilehome owners are forced to sell their homes at a cut-rate
price. Mr. Dufresne said that the residents want the City to follow the law.
Mayor Padilla asked staff to address some of the many issues raised by Mr. Dufresne regarding
compliance with conditional use permitting, inspections, compliance and enforcement on lot
delineations, and separation and distance between mobilehomes. Assistant Director of Building
and Housing Remp explained that, in consultation with the State, it was determined that the City
is in compliance with the state code. He gave assurance that the City's responsibility is to
confirm that when an application is received, it meets the minimum state requirements, as well as
conduct a City-instituted pre-inspection at no charge to the installer to confirm that a mobile unit
fits on the proposed lot and that the minimum set-back requirements are met. Regarding
conditional use permits (CUPs), of the 32 parks in the City, only five or six mobilehome parks
have CUPs. Under state law, those conditions cannot affect anything within the park. The
state's Title 25 mandates what may take place within the boundary of the park, and state law
supersedes. Regarding inspection enforcement, the City has conferred with the state and
confirmed that the interpretation used by the City is correct. With reference to lot lines, Mr.
Remp explained that until 1979, the park owner, under state law, could modify the location oflot
lines with no permission from anyone. State law was recently changed to require adjacent
property residents to sign off on changes in lot lines.
Chris Anderson, Field Operations Manager for the State Department of Housing and Community
Development, explained that the Mobilehome Parks Act is different in the State of California
than most building codes and cannot be amended by local government. He stated that there is a
key statute in the code that sets the preemption of the Mobilehome Parks Act throughout the
state, along with the regulations adopted by the State Department of Housing and Community
Development. Regarding separation issues, he explained that the manufactured home comes
from the factory sometimes with eaves, sometimes without eaves. Those eaves are the
projections referred to in the code and cannot be included in the separation; that is part of the
Manufactured Housing Construction Safety Standards and Manufactured Housing Act.
Regulations regarding awnings are included in the Mobilehome Parks Program. He stated that a
non-combustible awning can be installed to the lot line, and the separation between that awning
and a non-combustible awning on the adjacent lot is three feet, according to Title 25. He added
that there is an exemption for the placement of stairs; they are also permitted to the lot line.
Mayor Padilla questioned to what degree the City has latitude with respect to land use planning
authority, since Chula Vista is a charter city; and he asked if the City's regulations could be
Page 2 - Council Minutes
http://www.chulavistaca. gOY
May 4, 2006
stricter than State law. Assistant City Attorney Hull responded that generally, the Mobilehome
Park Act supersedes any City ordinance, although there are provisions of the Act that allow the
City to have certain provisions in place, which staff could look at. Mayor Padilla felt there must
be some way that local government can control densities and associated health and safety
impacts. He suggested that staff come back to address this issue. Mr. Anderson responded that
there are provisions in the health and safety code that provide local government with a lot of
authority, including density. Title 25 preempts setbacks and separations. Mayor Padilla then
suggested lobbying should be done in Sacramento.
Councilmember Castaneda believed there were conflicting rules, and there may be separation
rules in the code that are not being enforced. He also suggested that, after hearing from the
public and staff, the Council could come back and know exactly what can be done to resolve
some of the issues.
The following members of the public ceded their time to Teressa Weddle: Sharon Yates and
Bud Yates.
Teressa Weddle felt that mobilehome park owners gave concessions to some residents and not to
others. She stated that the City has not been responsive in addressing the health and safety
concerns raised. She believed that there was prejudice against mobilehomes and that the
separation should be the same as it is for houses. She expressed the need for state representatives
to come to the parks to ensure compliance, and the need to have lobbyists go to the legislature
and address the issues. She was hopeful that the City would look into the matter and get clear-
cut answers to the issues raised.
Norma Runyan agreed with the statements made by Mr. Dufresne, and stated that within the last
six months, mobilehomes have been jammed in the park where she resides. She asked about the
City's plans for redevelopment of Industrial Boulevard. She stated that the residents want the
area to be cleaned up and curbs and landscaping installed. She asked if the City planned to take
the mobilehome park through eminent domain. Planning and Building Director Sandoval
responded that the land use designation has not changed recently, and the City has no plans to
remove the park.
Barbara Nunnelee, from Jade Bay Mobilehome Park, stated that in 2002, the park changed the
residency from seniors to all-ages. She stated that the park does not have the capacity or the
facilities to accommodate children. She spoke about a number of violations by the park owner
that have not been corrected, including poor condition of streets, replacement of sewage pipes,
no security, no fencing, speed limit not posted, and an unsanitary swimming pool. She stated
that the owner refuses to accept new buyers and park applications. She felt that the residents
were prisoners of their own homes who cannot sell their homes, and who are abused and
harassed. Ms. Nunnelee stated that the residents recently received a notice of intent by the owner
to close the park on April 26, 2007, citing bankruptcy. She questioned whether the owner has
the right to do this and asked Council for its help on the issue.
Councilmember Castaneda requested that the City's Housing Department work with the State of
California to determine what options are available for the residents of Jade Bay Mobilehome
Park. He requested a report be brought back very quickly. Housing Manager Mills explained
Page 3 - Council Minutes
http://www .chula vistaca. gOY
May 4, 2006
that staffhas enlisted the help of outside counsel, and will get back to the Council as soon as they
have information. Mayor Padilla also stated that the City needed to do something sooner rather
than later to help the Jade Park residents.
Steve Molski spoke about the safety hazards associated with the close proximity of homes to one
another. He stated that park owners are making a large amount of money from rent, and the
mobilehome owners pay for their own sewer, trash, and maintenance of their lots. He felt that
park owners did not care about the welfare of the residents. He stated that no land had been set
aside by the City for additional mobilehome parks. Mr. Molski expressed the need for the City
to protect seniors.
Dorothy Arsenault stated that she recently became a mobilehome owner and resident, but was
not aware of the potential for problems, including the possibility of park closures and the
doubling of rents by park owners, who she felt did not consider the lives of the residents. She
suggested changes in the codes to inform buyers of some of the perils associated with moving
into mobilehome parks.
Suzanne Steffy, a resident of Continental Country Club, stated that the residents, most of whom
are elderly, live in fear because of restrictions, harassment, intimidation and invasion of privacy
by the park managers. She asked the Council for help in learning about their rights and possibly
mediation. Councilmember Chavez asked staff to address mediation services. Housing Manager
Mills replied that many issues are tenant-landlord related, and are regulated by state law. She
stated that staff has crafted a Request for Proposal for an ombudsman to help residents
understand their rights, listen to the issues, and provide referrals.
Michelle Rewerts asked for humanitarian treatment of the residents of the trailer parks on
Broadway, stating that the per-unit cost to re-house residents in new trailers would be far less
than the cost of apartment or condo units. She stated that the Smart Growth people, SANDAG
and the Housing Commission have no answers as to what to do with displaced, low-income
residents. She requested that the City find a solution before people are put on the street by City-
mandated closures of trailer parks on Broadway.
Jacquie Day, a resident of Otay Lakes Lodge and a real estate agent, stated that she had a
mobilehome listed for sale, and was misled by the park management when she asked what could
be done with the lot that, at the time, a single-wide mobilehome occupied. She was informed
that the maximum mobilehome size allowed would be a 20-foot by 50-foot unit. However, the
lot currently has a 26-foot by 59-foot mobilehome on it. She also stated that the agent from the
manufacturing company lied to her and did not obtain the necessary permits. She recommended
that the manufactured home sellers be educated as to the rules, and that the park management
inspect the lot to assure compliance with the mobilehome size for the assigned lot.
Joan Johnson stated that trailer parks should also be considered as communities. She spoke
about the large amount of space in the eastern portion of the City near transit routes that could be
utilized for trailer park residents, and she asked the City to give these residents a break and a
chance to remain in the City.
Ted Kennedy, a resident of a trailer park on Broadway, expressed concern that should
redevelopment occur in the area, thousands of residents would be displaced with nowhere to go.
He stated that people want to live in Chula Vista. He asked the City to provide competent
Page 4 - Council Minutes
http://www .chulavistaca. gOY
May 4, 2006
assistance to residents, and that they be compensated to the full extent of the law should they
have to leave. He spoke of the need for answers from the City about taking homes, and to
provide a distinction between mobilehome owners and mobilehome renters.
Cristy Vaul, a resident of Continental Country Club, presented a letter to the Mayor from her
physician that addressed the psychosocial stress she was experiencing as a result of harassment
by the park manager. She stated that she has a 13-year old dog, and also adopted a small dog,
but was sent a letter by the park manager telling her she could not keep the adopted dog. She
stated that all the residents are being harassed by the manager, and she asked the Council to help
the residents and protect the senior citizens so they can live the rest of their lives in peace.
Mayor Padilla requested that staff obtain copies of any written correspondence to Cristy Vaul
regarding the issue with her adopted dog, stating that even though he may not have the authority
to help with her situation, he would personally call the park owner.
Jackie Lancaster spoke about discouraging answers she has received regarding the waiting list
for alternative housing or rental assistance, should mobilehome or trailer park residents be
displaced. She believed that 14 of the 36 mobilehome parks would be replaced with high-rise
buildings, leaving thousands of displaced residents. She asked what would happen to seniors
who would have to be relocated, and stated that the City should make provisions for the citizens
prior to construction. She stated that Proposition C on the June ballot is supposed to protect
mobilehome parks and trailer parks from being taken through eminent domain, but that only
protects the homeowners if the park owner does not want to sell. Mayor Padilla stated that it was
important to ensure that accurate information was given, and some of the statements by Ms.
Lancaster were untrue. He asked staff to respond to some of Ms. Lancaster's statements.
Planning and Building Director Sandoval responded that the City has no provisions to move the
mobilehome parks; that the City is not a developer and, therefore, will not be building high-rises.
Mayor Padilla asked if there were any plans to give this property to developers for high-rises.
Mr. Sandoval responded negatively. Mayor Padilla requested confirmation that most ofthis land
is not in a redevelopment area and is not subject to eminent domain power. Mr. Sandoval
confirmed that the City would have no authority to do that. Mayor Padilla asked if staff was
aware of any developers trying to purchase these parks. Mr. Sandoval responded negatively.
Mayor Padilla then assured the community that people would not be displaced; and that the
Council is not in favor of taking homes. He requested that staff follow up with Jackie Lancaster
to make sure that everyone had accurate information with regard to the City's use of eminent
domain.
At 8:06 p.m., Mayor Padilla announced that there would be a short recess. At 8:23 p.m., Mayor
Padilla reconvened the meeting with all Councilmembers present.
Daniel Cacho, representing Don Luis Estates and President of the Chula Vista Mobilehome Park
Owners Association, stated he did not feel the industry was being treated fairly regarding the
City ordinance, which he believed was resident-driven. He stated that the mobilehome park
industry was the only business in the City under rent control, with no protection against market
risks and law suits, and that cannot earn fair market rents. He stated that the City should
investigate some of the claims and issues made against the parks by residents. He explained that
the City keeps tightening the ordinance, which he believed would lead to the loss of mobilehome
Page 5 - Council Minutes
http://www .chulavistaca. gOY
May 4, 2006
parks and the displacement of residents, with long-term consequences. He felt that the City
should provide incentives to park owners to upgrade the parks and attract good residents. Mr.
Cacho referenced an article in the Union Tribune that stated that the City spent two million
dollars in legal fees. He felt that the rent control ordinance created problems the way it was
written, and created poor relations between residents and park owners. Councilmember
Castaneda clarified that the City has not spent two million dollars in legal fees. He stated that
the City ordinance allowed mobilehome park owners to make a fair and just profit, and he would
support all efforts to address issues and provide health and safety for the residents. Mayor
Padilla stated he wanted the ordinance to be stricter when it was drafted and wanted rent
increases to be based on inspection compliance, but he was not able to get a consensus. He
stated that there are good park owners, but added that the issues raised are important and that he
would continue to be an advocate for citizen protection against victimization and abuse.
Linda Sundberg, representing Chula Vista Mobilehome Park residents, expressed concern about
the lot line issues. She spoke about a slanderous letter that the residents received from Bill
Wright, of Wright Manufactured Homes Inc., stating that the residents have been complaining
about property lines, but that the company has only tried making the park better. She explained
that she was denied a permit to build a deck on her property, because according to the plans on
file with the City, there was not enough room between the front of her mobilehome and the
street. She said that Mr. Wright had not only moved the lot lines, the mobilehome was facing a
different street than the plans provided to the City showed, and he had changed the address
without notifying the City. Ms. Sundberg stated that the residents need a state-qualified surveyor
to come to the park and re-establish the correct lot lines. She begged the City for help on the
matter; she stated that this company has taken the park down, and the residents have done all
they can do.
Armando Rudametkin, representing Chula Vista Mobile Home Park, stated that seniors do not
count. He explained that lot lines have been adjusted, and one mobilehome is so large that it has
overtaken the space that was available for the residents to walk through or have small social
gatherings. Mr. Rudametkin was hopeful that this meeting would be the beginning of something
for the residents.
Emilia Perez, representing Bay Scene Mobile Home Park, stated that she does not know what to
do about all the violations that exist in this park. She stated that the park owner wants to increase
the rent by 60 percent over what the City permits. She explained that the park streets are
neglected, and the gas lines and electricity are in poor condition. The park owners charge
residents for park maintenance but do not maintain the property. She asked the Council for help
on the matter and invited Councilmembers to visit the park.
Diana Isaacs, a resident of Palms Mobile Home Park, stated that the change in trash collection
has resulted in an increase to residents from $12.12 to $17.80 for the trash bill. She expressed
concern about the park sewer system that has flooded on numerous occasions, and the residents
are being blamed for the problem. She requested assurance that somebody would contact the
property manager to address these issues.

Doug Scott, a contractor for many of the manufactured homes in the City, stated that he applies
for appropriate permits for jobs, and that the City's Planning and Building Department follows
the requirements of Title 25. However, Title 25 does not dictate the size of a home that goes on
a specific lot. He stated that most of the homes he has dealt with do fit the lot. He realized that
the City needs to address the issues raised regarding setbacks, but the complaints should be valid.
Enrique Camacho, representing Bay Scene Mobile Home Park residents, expressed concern with
increased rents by eight to thirteen percent each time a new park owner comes in. He stated that
the park manager is never on-site on the weekends, the park is poorly maintained, and the
manager is hiring non-professionals for repair work in the park. He suggested that if the owner
cannot maintain the park, then let the residents purchase the park and maintain it. He asked
Council for their help on the matter.
Deputy Mayor McCann stated that the City needed to ensure that all health and safety codes are
followed. He also requested a written legal opinion regarding the issue of separations between
the units. Regarding Industrial Boulevard, he believed the City should look at establishing a
capital improvement project, potentially with the use of community development block grant
funding, to help install curbs and gutters. He also requested that the City look into creating a
pamphlet to make new residents aware of their rights and responsibilities, as well as contact
information if an issue should arise. In regards to relocation, not only for mobilehome owners,
but also as a result of redevelopment, he suggested the implementation of a policy to give
priority to displaced residents as the City builds new affordable housing and new affordable
senior units.
Councilmember Rindone requested a report to Council with an analysis of code enforcement
activities, including types of fines imposed, and where the fines were imposed. He requested
that staff examine the possibility of having an ombudsman and/or a hotline to serve as a referral
service for people to contact when they do not know where to go for answers. Regarding the
Jade Bay Mobilehome Park, he requested a succinct report to the Council regarding the roles of
the City, as well as the roles that are not the City's, and the possible impacts of the bankruptcy.
He also requested that staff look at the possibility of implementing a "mapping size" of each
mobilehome lot to determine the maximum size mobilehome for that particular lot, the cost of
which could be shared, not necessarily borne entirely on the City.
Councilmember Castaneda directed the City Attorney to report to the Council within 60 days on
the land use issues raised and what the City can do to ensure that there are consequences when
someone installs a mobilehome without a permit or breaks the rules. He also requested that the
City have its lobbyist try to affect some rules at the state level. With regard to the Jade Bay
Mobilehome Park issue, he requested a report back to the Council within two weeks with some
tangible solutions for the residents.
Councilmember Chavez indicated that the Community Development Department IS already
looking into the possibility of an ombudsman for the City.

Mayor Padilla requested that the City find a way to help the Jade Bay Mobilehome Park
residents, at least with information. He also requested that more funds be allocated toward
enforcement personnel and legal personnel to enable the City to enforce the rules. He stated that
the legal staff needed to determine what the City can do to regulate the land use issues. He
believed that the City needed to do more work on the conversion ordinance, on relocation
assistance, on tightening up the rent review ordinance, and on enforcement.
PUBLIC COMMENTS
There were none.

COUNCIL AGENDA STATEMENT
Item ::3
Meeting Date 6/13/06
ITEM TITLE:
Resolution Ratifying City staff s action on approving
Change Order No.2 with Metropolitan Construction to complete the
project CMP Storm Drain Pipe Rehabilitation Project (DR-165) and
transferring the amount of $18,146 from CIP "Western Chula Vista
Infrastructure" (GG-188) to DR-165 for said purpose.
SUBMITTED BY:
Director of General Services
City Manager 11 ~ 7l R
(4/5ths Vote: Yes l No ~
REVIEWED BY:
On November 22, 2005, the City approved Resolution No. 2005-380 awarding a contract in the
amount of $194,774 to Metropolitan Construction, for the "CMP Storm Drain Pipe
Rehabilitation Project" (CIP No. DR-165).
During the course of construction, staff discovered at one of the sites for this project (the Fig
Avenue and Guava Avenue location) that the existing CMP pipe had a low point just below an
existing block wall. The design process did not account for this field condition and therefore the
required pipe size would now come out above the ground. Additional work is required to
complete the project.
Change Order No.2 (Attachment A) is for items of work not originally included in the project
design, but necessary to complete the project in accordance with City standards. Approval of
tonight's resolution will ratify staffs action approving Change Order No.2 for said project
valued at $39,825.64 in accordance with the City Council Policy No. 574-01 and as presented in
the Council Information Item submitted on March 21, 2006 (Attachment B).
RECOMMENDATION: That Council adopt resolution.
BOARDS/COMMISSION: N/ A
DISCUSSION:
As part of an ongoing program to rehabilitate corrugated metal drainage pipe (CMP) throughout
the City, staff have identified a number of storm drain facilities, which are deteriorated and are in
need of rehabilitation. The CMP Storm Drain Pipe Rehabilitation Project (DR-165) removed
and replaced CMP drainage facilities.
Per the formal bidding process, staff invited companies to submit proposals to provide
construction services for the CMP Rehabilitation Storm Drain Pipe Rehabilitation Project (DR-
165). The scope of work included the replacement of 430 lineal feet of Corrugated Metal Pipe
(CMP). The project rehabilitated three locations of the City's system of corrugated metal storm
drain pipes. The general scope of the project involved the removal and replacement of existing
corrugated metal pipe, including all labor, material, equipment, tools, transportation,
mobilization, traffic control, removal and disposal of existing improvements, and other work
necessary to construct the project in accordance with City standards. On October 12, 2005,

Meeting Date 61n'i06
General Services staff received two bids, and the lowest responsive bidder was Metropolitan
Construction. Council awarded a contract per Resolution 2005-380 in the amount of $194,774
plus contingencies in the amount of $29,220.
Change Order No.1 - During the course of construction at the 1245 Monserate Avenue location,
staff decided to adjust the design and location of the proposed curb-outlet and catch basin. This
modification to the existing design was so that the property owner's front yard would not be
impacted significantly. The change was done without jeopardizing the integrity of the storm
drain improvements and meeting all City requirements.
Change Order No.2 - During the course of construction, staff discovered that the existing CMP
pipe had a low point just below an existing block wall at the Fig and Guava location. This
unexpected field condition does not allow water to flow and work properly as a storm drain
system, and would force water to flow towards the middle of the pipe instead of from one end to
the other. The design did not account for this field condition and, therefore, the required pipe
size would now come out above the ground. The design has been adjusted so that the property
owner's backyard would be impacted minimally, the storm drain improvement meets all City
.requirements and the improvement remains within the City's existing easement. The additional
work will include the cutting of an existing block wall footing, re-alignment of proposed pipe,
backfilling and re-trenching, concrete curbs, slurry backfill, and some construction delays.
The above mentioned design issue and other field condition resulted in a change order that
exceeds the Director of Public Works authorized limits set per Council Policy No. 574-01. Said
Council Policy also states the following: "In those cases where the City Manager and Director of
Public Works determine that the public health and safety are involved or a substantial claim
could be submitted by the contractor for delays, the City Manager may exceed the above
amounts provided for both individual change orders or the aggregate amount of change orders.
Staff directed the Contractor to proceed with the work because of the reasons stated below and as
stated on the Council Information Item submitted on March 21,2006.
· The improvements proposed are storm drain related and the construction took place in the
ramy season.
· Delays could compromise public safety as trenches would have to remain open.
· Delays would involve substantial additional claims by the Contractor for remobilization,
insurance, bonds, construction site maintenance, etc.
Therefore, staff recommends transferring $18,146 from the available balance of the "Western
Chula Vista Infrastructure Program" (GG188) to the DR-165 CIP project.
With respect to Change Order No.2, the location of the work is located within 500 feet of
property owned by Councilmember Rindone.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no impact on the General Fund as the funds for these improvements have been provided
for as part of the Western Chula Vista Infrastructure Financing Program. Staff recommends a
transfer in the amount $18,146 to complete the capital improvement project DR-165.

Change Order for (DR 165) CMP Rehabilitation Project
As part of an ongoing program to rehabilitate corrugated metal drainage pipe (CMP) throughout
the City, staff have identified a number of storm drain facilities which are deteriorated and are in
need of rehabilitation. Per the formal bidding process, staff invited companies to submit
proposals to provide construction services for the CMF Rehabilitation Storm Drain Pipe
Rehabilitation Project (DR-165). The scope of work included 430 lineal feet ofCMP. The
general scope of the project involves the removal and replacement of existing corrugated metal
pipe, including all labor, material, equipment, tools, transportation, mobilization, traffic control,
removal and disposal of existing improvements, and other work necessary to construct the
project in accordance with City standards. On 11/22/05 per Resolution No. 2005-380 Council
awarded said project to Metropolitan Construction in the amount of$194,774.
During the course of construction, staff discovered at one of the sites for this project (the Fig
Avenue and Guava A venue location) that the existing CMP pipe had a low point just below an
existing block wall. This unexpected field condition would force water to flow towards the
middle of the pipe instead of from one end to the other. It is believed that said condition for the
existing pipe was built in the 1960's. The design process did not account for this field condition
and therefore the required pipe size would now come out above the ground. The design has been
adjusted so that the property owner's backyard experiences the least possible impact, that the
storm drain improvement meets all City requirements and that the improvement remains within
the City's easement. The additional work will included the cutting of an existing block wall
footing, re-alignment of proposed pipe, backfilling and re-trenching, concrete curbs, slurry
backfill, and some construction delays. .
The above mentioned design issue and other field condition differences will result in a change
order that exceeds the Director of Public Works authorized limits set per Council Policy No.
574-01. Staff estimates that said change order will be in the range of $30,000 to $40,000. Staff
has directed the Contractor to proceed with the work because of the following reasons:
. Delays could compromise public safety as trenches would have to remain open
. The improvements proposed are storm drain related and the construction is taking place
in the rainy season

BACKGROTJNn
During the course of work on many City public works pr.ojects,it becomes apparent that certain
changes must be made in the contract to obtain the finished product in its desired form.
PlJRPOSF.
Since most of these changes are of a minor nature which do not change the scope of the project or
affect the public health, safety, or welfare, delegating limited authority to approve change orders
would result in significantly expediting these public works projects.
POIJr.V
The Director of Public Works is hereby delegated limited authority to approve change orders for work
being done under City public works contracts, as follows:
1. All change orders, except for those change orders exceeding or causing the exceedence of the
amounts specified herein, shall be processed and approved by the Director of Public Works in
accordance with the applicable project specifications.
2. No individual change order shall increase or decrease the original contract amount by more
than $50,000.
3. The aggregate amount of all change orders shall not increase the contract amount by more than
the amount specified below:
Original Contract
Range
Maximum Aggregate Increase in Change Orders
Up to $100,000
$100,000 to $1,000,000

$10,000 plus 7% of the original contract amount over
$100,000
$73,000 plus 5% of the original contract amount over
$1,000,000
The Director shall also be authorized to increase the time allowed for contract completion in
association with any change order granted under this policy.
4. All change orders involving changes in the scope of project, increases of contract amounts
greater than outlined above or aspects concerning the public health, safety, or welfare, shall be
submitted to the City Council for consideration.
In those cases where the City Manager and Director of Public Works determine that the public hea~th
and safety are involved or a substantial claim could be submitted by the contractor for delays, the Clty
Manager may exceed the above amounts provided for both individual change orders or the aggregate
amount of change orders. The change order shall be submitted to the Council at the next regular

Resolution Accepting bids, awarding the contract for the
"Memorial Bowl Renovations in the City of Chula Vista, California (PR-

REVIEWED BY:
On May 17, 2006, at 11 :00 a.m., the Director of General Services received three (3) sealed bids
for the "Memorial Bowl Renovations in the City of Chula Vista, California (PR-272)" Project.
The scope of work primarily includes the rehabilitation of the amphitheater seating, walls, and
walkways and the installation of a new dedication monument within Memorial Park in the City
of Chula Vista.
RECOMMENDATION: That Council adopt the resolution.
BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: Not applicable.
DISCUSSION:
On February 22, 2005, the Chula Vista Rotary Foundation has graciously offered to assist in
financing a portion of the renovation to the Memorial Bowl in the amount of $100,000 and will
be provided for in five annual payments of $20,000. This generous offer was in coordination
with the Rotarian International's 100th anniversary celebration. General Services staff prepared
plans and specifications for the Memorial Bowl Renovation Project. On April 28, 2006 the City
advertised for contractors to bid on the construction of the contract for the "Memorial Bowl
Renovations in the City of Chula Vista, California (PR-272)" Project. On May 17,2006 at 11 :00
a.m. three (3) bids were received and publicly opened.
The three bid proposals received were from the following companies:

Bid Results
Bids from the contractors were received as follows (Bids sorted by bid amount):
CONTRACTOR BASE BID
C.D.M. Construction, Inc. $119,302.90
Precise Construction Management $128,670.00
Steven's Construction $143,625.00
Staff thoroughly reviewed all bids and it was determined that the lowest bidder for the proj ect did
meet the 'Bid Proposal' requirements. The lowest responsive bid for the project was submitted
by C.D.M. Construction, Inc. The C.D.M. Construction, Inc. contractor's License Number is
735279 and is clear and CUITent. Staff has reviewed the bid and is recommending awarding the
contract to C.D.M. Construction, Inc. in the amount of$119,302.90.
The low bid by C.D.M. Construction, Inc of $119,302.90 is 7% over the Engineer's estimate of
$111,400. The Engineer's estimate was based on average unit prices for similar types of work
completed recently. However, we have noticed an increase in materials costs throughout the
City, thus resulting in higher bids than anticipated. General Services Department Staff checked
the references required by the project specifications that the contractor submitted. All references
submitted were verified and their work has been satisfactory. In addition, C.D.M. Construction
has done work for the City ofChula Vista and their work was found to be satisfactory.
In addition, approval of this resolution authorizes the expenditure of all available contingencies
for the project. According to City Council Policy No. 574-01, if a change order exceeds the
cumulative contract change order aggregate an10unt allowable to be approved by the Director of
Public Works Operations, City Council approval is required. However, approval of tonight's
resolution will increase the Director of Public Works Operations' authority to approve change
orders as necessary up to the contingency amount of $11,140, authorizing staff to expend all
available contingencies and increase the value of the contract as necessary due to unforeseen
circumstances. Unforeseen circumstances (i.e. poor sub grade, utility conflicts, increase of
construction quantities, etc.) may cause an increase in quantities beyond what was anticipated
during the preparation of the project specifications. Often times, additional areas are repaired
beyond what is anticipated due to the failing area increasing in size and unseen construction
changes. As a result, additional material is required to repair the areas and may lead to a
necessary "Change Order" to the contract. This is a typical situation with all construction
projects.
The location of the work for this project is located within 500 feet of property owned by Councilmember
Castaneda.

ITEM TITLE:
Resolution Accepting the final report of expenditures for the
"Emergency drainage Facility Repair Work on First Avenue, Between "H"
Street and Shasta Street" and ratifying the actions of the City Manager and
Director of General Services for making and executing a contract for said
emergency repair with T.C. Construction Company, Inc.

REVIEWED BY: City Manager f /~ Y ~
(4/5ths Vote: YesXNo.J
On February 19, 2005, the City of Chula Vista Police Department alerted the Department of
Public Works Operation regarding a sinkhole that had developed along First Avenue, between
"H" Street and Shasta Street. The sinkhole and surrounding areas were immediately secured by
City staff to prevent any other potential problems and to ensure public safety. The sinkhole was
created by failed storm drain facilities (112 inch by 75 inch Corrugate Metal Pipe Arch (CMPA)
and a 24 inch Corrugated Metal Pipe (CMP). In accordance with the emergency provisions of
Section 1009 of the City Charter, City staff contracted the services of T.C. Construction
Company, Inc. (General Engineering Contractor License No. 402459) for the repair. The repair
was completed and the street was open to vehicular traffic on June 21, 2005. An Informational
Item was submitted in March 2005 (Attachment 1) and another one in June of2005 (Attachment
2) with the progress of the project and with the plan to come back to Council with a final report
after the full cost of the project was identified. This report represents the total expenditures for
the repair.
RECOMMENDATION: That Council adopt the resolution.
BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: Not applicable.
DISCUSSION:
At 3:45 p.m. on Saturday, February 19, 2005, the City of Chula Vista Police Department alerted
the Public Works Department regarding a sinkhole that had developed along First Avenue,
between "H" Street and Shasta Street. The sinkhole measured approximately six (6) feet in
diameter and depth, as measured from nearest adjacent street elevation, and was situated within
the traveled way of First Avenue. The sinkhole and surrounding area were immediately secured
by City staff to prevent any other potential problems and to ensure public safety. After
assessment of the situation, it was determined that the sinkhole resulted from failure of storm
drain facilities resulting from the overall age of the facilities and the heavy rainfall and debris
flowing through the drainage system. It appeared that the sinkhole was formed by high velocity
storm flows and debris that eroded the flowlines of the drainage facilities and, subsequently,

Meeting Date 6/13/06
began eroding the underlying soils which created a void. Subsidence of the overlying soils and
street improvements then occurred due to the existing void beneath the drainage facilities.
The failed storm drain facilities included a Il2-inch by 75-inch Corrugated Metal Pipe Arch
(CMP A) that served as a main trunk line for conveying storm runoff through the Central Basin
and a 24-inch diameter Corrugated Metal Pipe (CMP) that was tributary to the CMPA section of
storm drain.
In accordance with City Charter Section 1009 and based upon the urgent necessity for the
preservation of life, health and property and as explained in the Informational Items sent on March
and June 2005, City staff contracted the services ofT.C. Construction Company, Inc. to stabilize
the sinkhole so that no further damage would be caused by the rains and to install the needed
ultimate improvements. A copy of the Agreement and change orders are provided as Attachment
3. The stabilizing work included removal of the soils to the depth of the voids, and pumping
approximately ten cubic yards of concrete in the voids beneath the failed drainage facilities and
over the top of the pipe arch. A 4-inch thick reinforced concrete bottom was also placed in the
CMP A to prevent any further failure of the surrounding soils and trench plates capped off the
hole at the surface. The ultimate improvements included removing all of the affected CMPA and
CMP within the influence of the First Avenue roadway and replacing it with a concrete box
culvert and reinforced concrete pipe, respectively. All constructed drainage facilities were
sufficiently sized to handle the highest seasonal flows that could potentially reach the new
facilities.
The Director of General Services and the City Manager agreed with the recommendation of staff
on the necessity to proceed with the emergency repair for the following reasons:
· It minimized public inconvenience and safety hazards to the general public. To expedite
construction and to minimize hazards to the general public the street was closed for the
duration of the repair.
· It will mitigate a potential total collapse of the existing CMP due to incoming rain storms
that could cause serious damage to health and property. Without this improvement, the
soil around the CMP A would have continued to erode. More of First Avenue,
surrounding private residences and even H Street could have been lost. Being able to
repair the facility and at the same time verifying the limits of the sub-surface damage to
mitigate them was necessary for the safety of the general public.
The Environmental Review Coordinator has reviewed the proposed project for compliance with
the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined that the project qualifies
for a Statutory Exemption pursuant to Section 15269 (Emergency Projects) of the State CEQA
Guidelines. Thus, no further environmental review is necessary.
FISCAL IMPACT: The total expenditures for the emergency drainage facility repair work were
funded from the "Western Chula Vista Infrastructure" (GG-188) account and are broken down as
follows:

EMERGENCY DRAINAGE FACILITY REPAIR WORK ON FIRST
AVENUE, BETWEEN "H" STREET AND SHASTA STREET
VIA:
FROM:
SUBJECT:
At 3 :45 p.m. on Saturday, February 19, 2005, the City of Chula Vista Police Department alerted the
Department of Public Works Operations regarding a sinkhole that had developed along First
Avenue, betvveen "H" Street and Shasta Street. The sinkhole measured approximately six (6) feet in
diameter and depth, as measured from nearest adj acent street elevation, and was situated within the
traveled way of First Avenue. The sinkhole and surrounding area were immediately secured by
City staff to prevent any other potential problems and to ensure public safety. Fortunately, no City
staff or citizens were injured as a result of the sinkhole.
After assessment of the situation, it was determined that the sinkhole resulted from fallure of storm
drain facilities resulting from the overall age of the facilities and the heavy rainfall flowing through
the drainage system. It appeared that the sinkhole was formed by high velocity storm flows that
eroded the flowlines of the deteriorated drainage facilities and, subsequently, began eroding the
underlying soils which created a void. Subsidence of the overlying soils and street improvements
then occurred due to the existing void beneath the drainage facilities.
The failed storm drain facilities included a l12-inch by 7S-inch Corrugated Metal Pipe Arch
(CMP A) that served as a main trunk line for conveying storm runoff through the Central Basin and
a 24-inch diameter Corrugated Metal Pipe (CMP) that was tributary to the CMPA section of storm
drain.
5-4
In accordance with the emergency prOVISIon of Section 1009 of the City Charter, City staff
contracted the services of T.C. Construction Company, Inc. (General Engineering Contractor
License No. 402459) to help stabilize the sinkhole so that no further damage would be caused by
the rains and until the emergency work could be performed. The stabilizing work included removal
of the soils to the depth of the voids, and pumping approximately ten (10) cubic yards of concrete in
the voids beneath the failed drainage facilities and over the top of the pipe arch. A 4 inch thick
reinforced concrete bottom was also placed in the CMP A to prevent any further failure of the
surrounding soils and trench plates capped off the hole at the surface.
Currently, First Avenue remains closed to vehicular traffic between "H" Street and Shasta Street
until the ultimate solution to the sinkhole is constructed. At present, City staff has designed the
emergency repair work needed that involves removing all of the affected C11P A and C11P within
the influence of the First Avenue roadway and replacing it with a concrete box culvert and
reinforced concrete pipe, respectively. All proposed drainage facilities shall be sufficiently sized to
handle the highest seasonal flows that could potentially reach the new facilities. The total cost for
the emergency repair, as previously described, has been estimated at $500,000. The estimated time
for said repair is 5-7 weeks from the notice of commencement plus any rain delays.
The remaining segments of CMP A and CMP downstream of this area have been televised and
appear to be in an acceptable condition that does not require immediate action.
It should be noted that the General Services Department has recently advertised a Request for
Proposals (RFP) to provide closed-circuit televising (CCTV) inspections and condition assessments
for all of the City's corrugated metal drainage facilities. This will involve televising, inspecting,
and rating the condition of approximately 88,000 lineal feet of corrugated metal drainage facilities
within the City. The consultant services of Hirsch & Company will be retained by the City to
perform the necessary work for the described project. The overall project will result in a list that
will prioritize these drainage facilities for the annual storm drain rehabilitation project the City
administers. It is anticipated that the consultant contract will be approved by City Council in late
March 2005 and the project completed by November 2005. By being proactive with the realities of
our aging C11P and CMP A system, the City will be better able to provide a safe environment for
it's citizens and minimize the fiscal impact for any future problems and/or repairs that may arise
due to the failure of corrugated metal drainage facilities.

r;J
Dave Rowlands, City Manager
VIA:
FROM:
Jack Griffin, Director of General ServicetJj}..
UPDATE ON THE ElVIERGENCY DRAINAGE FACILITY REPAIR WORK
ON FIRST AVENUE, BETWEEN "H" STREET AND SHASTA STREET
SUBJECT:
City staff and T.e. Construction Company, Inc (Contractor) have been diligently working to
complete the Emergency Drainage Facility Repair on First Avenue. The estimated completion date
is now the second week of July 2005. This date is different that the one provided on the previous
informational item (attached) sent to Council in March because of weather and utility conflicts that
were unknown at the time. Before the construction of the proposed Reinforced Concrete Box
Culvert (RCBC), the Contractor and the utility agencies first had to relocate and/or adjust major
utilities such as sewer, water, gas and electricity. Then, the existing corrugated metal pipe arch
(C11PA) and surface improvements were removed. At that point, the construction for the RCBC
followed in accordance with regional standards. The necessary curing times were observed in order
to allow the concrete to achieve enough strength to proceed with backfilling. The RCBC has now
been constructed and the Contractor is now replacing the surface improvements that were affected.
Once the RCBC has reached the required strength for traffic loads and the surface improvements
have been completed, the street will be re-opened to vehicular and pedestrian traffic.
Staff has aggressively pursued informing residents around the improvement. The attached
informational postcards were send to residents in the immediate vicinity (see attached mailing list)
on 3111/05, and 4/28/05. Also, bi-weekly communication has been opened with the residents that
are most directly affected. All in an effort to keep the public informed of the progress and the new
completion date. Staff plans to follow with a Council Agenda Statement as soon as the project is
completed.
In addition, the closed-circuit televising (CCTV) inspections and condition assessments for all of
the City's corrugated metal drainage facilities project (DR 164) approved by Council on 3/22/2005
by Resolution No. 2005-095, is 30% complete. The overall project will result in a list that will
prioritize these drainage facilities for the annual storm drain rehabilitation project the City
administers. It is anticipated that the consultant will complete the project by October 2005, one
month earlier than expected.

I
(p 25) If delays are caused by unforeseen events beyond the control of both the
I
Contractor and the Agency, such delays will entitle 1~efontractor to an extension of
time as provided herein, but the Contractor shal~ be entitled to damages or
additional payment due to such delays. War, government regulations, labor disputes,
strikes, fires, floods, adverse weather necessitating cessation of work, other similar

the Agency in complying with legally-mandated conditions precedent to issuance of the
Contract (such as, for example, failure to comply with environmental laws, public
hearing requirements, delays caused by utility relocations and or installations, etc.)
inability to obtain materials, equipment or labor, required extra work, or other specific
reasons as may be further described in the Specifications may constitute such a delay.
No extension of time will be granted for a delay caused by the inability to obtain
materials unless the Contractor furnishes to the Engineer documentary proof of the
inability to obtain such materials in a timely manner in accordance with the sequence of
the Contractor's operations and the approved construction schedule.
If delays beyond the Contractor's control are caused by reasons other than those
mentioned above, but substantially equal in gravity to those enumerated, and an
extension oftime is deemed by the Engineer to be in the best interests of the Agency,
an extension of time may be granted, but the Contractor will not be entitled to damages
or additional payment due to such delays.
If delays beyond the Contractor's control are caused solely by action or inaction by the
Agency, such delays will entitle the Contractor to an extension of time as provided in
Subsection 6-6.2.
6-6.2 Extensions of Time Add:
(p 26) It is further agreed that, in case the work called for under the Contract is not
finished and completed in all parts and requirements within the time specified, the City

5-34
Council shall have the right to extend the time for completion or not, as may seem best
to serve the interest of the City; and if it decides to extend the time limit for the
completion of the Contract, it shall further have the right to charge to the Contractor,
his/her heirs, assigns or sureties, and to deduct from the final payment for the work all
or any part, as it may deem proper, of the actual cost of engineering, inspection,
superintendence, and other overhead expenses which are directly chargeable to the
Contract, and which accrue during the period of such extension, except that the cost of
final surveys and preparation of fmal estimate shall not be included in such charges.
The Contractor shall not be assessed with liquidated damages nor the cost of
engineering and inspection during any delay in the completion of the work caused by
Acts of God or of the Public Enemy, acts of the City, fire, floods, epidemics, quarantine
restrictions, strikes, freight embargoes, and unusually severe weather or delays of
subcontractors due to such causes; provided that the Contractor shall, within ten (10)
days from the beginning of such delay, notify the Engineer, in writing, of the causes of
delay, who shall ascertain the facts and the extent of the delay, and hislher findings of
the facts thereon shall be final and conclusive.
6-6.3 Payment for Delays to Contract Revise to read as follows:
(p 26) The Contractor may be compensated for delays caused solely by the failure of
the Agency to furnish necessary rights of way, failure to deliver materials shown in the
Contract Documents to be furnished by the Agency, or for the suspension of the work
by the Agency for its own convenience or benefit. Without constituting a limitation on
other events which may also not be for the convenience or benefit of the Agency, it
shall be deemed to be not a suspension of work for the Agency's convenience or benefit
if the cause of the suspension is, or is related to, one of the causes of delay identified or
referenced in the first paragraph of Section 6-6.1. If the Contractor sustains a loss
which could not have been avoided by the judicious handling of forces, equipment or
plant, there shall be paid to the Contractor such amount as the Engineer may find to be
fair and reasonable compensation for such part of the Contractor's actual loss as was
unavoidable.

Meeting Date 6/13/06
On March 22, 2005 Council held the public hearing on the Dixon Drive sidewalk improvements.
There was no public testimony, so the hearing was closed and ballots were tabulated. Since greater
than 50% of the property owners, based on property frontage, voted in favor of the proposed
assessments, Council adopted Resolution No. 2005-101 (Attachment B), which ordered the
installation of improvements in accordance with Article XIIID of the California Constitution.
In accordance with Section 20852 of the Public Contract Code, the City advertised and obtained
sealed bids as part of a formal bidding process and awarded the contract to the lowest responsible
bidder. On August 31, 2005, Design Staff received and opened bids from three contractors for the
construction phase:
CONTRACTOR BID AMOUNT
1. Scheidel Contracting and Engineering Inc. $574,433.75
2. Heffler Company Inc. $895,311.51
3. Portillo Concrete Inc. $948,240.00
The low bid by Scheidel Contracting and Engineering Inc. of$574,433.75 was $98,447.25 (15%)
below the Engineer's estimate of$672,881.00. The Engineer's estimate was based on average prices
for similar types of work completed during the last three years. Staff reviewed the low bid and
recommended awarding a contract in the amount of $574,433.75 to Scheidel Contracting and
Engineering, Inc.
Scheidel Contracting and Engineering, Inc. completed the construction of improvements. Of the
total construction costs, only concrete driveways and private improvement relocation were proposed
to be assessed to the property owners. The final construction costs for the property owners'
responsibilities totaled $150,077.07.
Staff has completed the accounting of the expenditures and apportionment to property owners, as
shown in the Engineer's Report (Attachment C). This document amends the Preliminary Engineer's
Report adopted by Council on January 25,2005. Since the amounts now allocated to the property
owners based on actual construction costs are equal to or less than the amounts originally included
on the homeowners' ballots, an additional assessment ballot proceeding will not be required. The
following amounts will be assessed to each property owner. These amounts are based only on
construction costs for the driveway aprons and the relocation of private improvements. Preliminary
cost estimates were based on estimated driveway quantities and estimated costs for the relocation of
private improvements. Final assessments are based on actual quantities and the actual cost of the
relocation ofthe private improvements. Driveway quantities may have increased or decreased from
the preliminary estimates, due to necessary field adjustments during construction.

Following confirmation of the final assessments, the property owners had the option of paying any
portion of the assessments during the 30-day payoff period following the completion of
improvements and confirmation of assessments. For Assessments not fully paid during that time,
Section 5895 ofthe Streets and Highways Code permits the City to collect the unpaid balance over a
maximum period often years, together with interest on the unpaid principal at a maximum rate of7
percent per year. Based on the current interest rates, the City will charge 5 percent interest for a
period of ten years. Property owners had the option to pay the balance of their assessments at any
time during the 30-day repayment period without penalty. This period ended on May 1, 2006. The
remaining balance will be paid on tax rolls beginning in Fiscal Year 2006-07.
The assessment taxes shall be collected in the same manner as ad valorem property taxes and shall be
subject to the same penalties, procedure, sale and lien priority in any case of delinquency as
applicable for ad valorem taxes.

1913 ACT
ASSESSMENT DISTRICT
AD 2004-01
MAY 25, 2006
6-18
Back2round
Dixon Drive, between Naples Street and Oxford Street in Chula Vista, is a residential
street with 60-foot width of right-of-way and is located within the Castle Park area of the
City of Chula Vista. The Castle Park area is generally bounded by Third Avenue to the
west, Hilltop Drive to the east, Naples Street to the north, and Palomar Street to the south.
Prior to our street improvement project, existing improvements along Dixon Drive
generally consisted of asphaltic concrete pavement with no curb-and-gutter.
In November 2003, twenty-eight Dixon Drive property owners submitted a petition to the
City requesting the initiation of proceedings to form an assessment district in accordance
with the Improvement Act of 1913. This district would finance the construction ofthe
missing curb, gutter and sidewalk and other street improvements along Dixon Drive,
from Naples Street to Oxford Street. Subsequently, on March 22, 2005, the City
conducted a public hearing approving the formation of the Assessment District, making
findings pursuant to the Improvement Act of 1913 and Article XIIID of the Constitution
of the State of California, and ordering the construction of improvements. On September
13, 2005, the City Council accepted bids and awarded the contract for the construction of
street improvements on Dixon Drive. The final construction plans were based on
community meetings and input from the public to address property owners' concerns.
The City currently has a policy regarding participation in 1913 Block Act proceedings.
According to this policy, the City will provide all engineering, inspection and
administrative services at no cost to the property owners. It is the City's responsibility to
relocate or replace all existing public improvements, which would be in conflict with the
new improvements, including utilities, and costs associated with construction of the curb,
gutter and sidewalk, and street reconstruction. These costs would not be assessed to the
property owners. The property owners would be responsible to pay for all costs
associated with the driveway apron construction and any costs associated with the
relocation of private improvements (only if private improvements were originally located
in the public right-of-way prior to construction).

The improvements included within this district consist ofthe reconstruction of the asphalt
concrete street, construction of monolithic curb, gutter and sidewalk, and miscellaneous
associated drainage and sewer facilities. The five-foot sidewalk was constructed to
match the existing sidewalk at the south end of Dixon Drive. 'Where driveways were
located, a driveway apron was constructed to provide a transition between the street, the
sidewalk and the driveways.
In addition to the street and sidewalk improvements, the City had coordinated with the
utility companies to relocate overhead utilities. This work was conducted in conjunction
with the street improvement project.
Total construction cost for the project was approximately $632,000.00. The amount
allocated to the property owners was $142,135.31.
Method of Apportionment
Costs must be apportioned to each property in proportion to the benefit received by that
property. In apportioning the cost of street improvements, it can generally be assumed
that the property adjacent to the improvements will receive the direct benefit. The
adjacent properties would be most likely to use the improvements, particularly with
respect to the driveway aprons. Additionally, construction of street and sidewalk
improvements generally results in increased property values for the adjacent residences.
For this project, the City agreed that the sidewalks and street improvements should be
financed by the City due to the use of the street and sidewalk as a general public route for
the residents within the Castle Park area. It is generally the City's policy to pay for
replacement of existing improvements and City staff costs related to planning, design,
surveying and construction inspection. Therefore, the only cost that was to be paid by the
property owners is the cost of constructing the driveway aprons and any relocation of
private improvements. The final property owner's share of the cost for the street
improvement project was $142,135.31
The breakdown of construction costs among the thirty-eight properties within the district
is shown in the following table. For each property, the square footage of driveway apron
was individually calculated, which includes the actual driveway and the wing area on
each side of the driveway. Private improvement relocation is also included in the
property owners' construction costs.

The amounts to be assessed to the property owners based on the final construction costs
can thus be compared to the amounts estimated in the Preliminary Engineer's Report as

Backeround
Dixon Drive, between Naples Street and Oxford Street in Chula Vista, is a residential
street with 60-foot width of right-of-way and is located within the Castle Park area of the
City of Chula Vista. The Castle Park area is generally bounded by Third Avenue to the
west, Hilltop Drive to the east, Naples Street to the north, and Palomar Street to the south.
Prior to our street improvement project, existing improvements along Dixon Drive
generally consisted of asphaLtic concrete pavement with no curb-and-gutter.
In November 2003, twenty-eight Dixon Drive property owners submitted a petition to the
City requesting the initiation of proceedings to fonn an assessment district in accordance
with the Improvement Act of 1913. This district would finance the construction of the
missing curb, gutter and sidewalk and other street improvements along Dixon Drive,
from Naples Street to Oxford Street. Subsequently, on March 22. 2005, the City
conducted a public hearing approving the formation of the Assessment District, making
findings pursuant to the Improvement Act of 1913 and Article XITID of the Constitution
of the State of California, and ordering the construction ofimprovements. On September
13,2005, the City Council accepted bids and awarded the contract for the construction of
street improvements on Dixon Drive. The final construction plans were based on
community meetings and input from the public to address property o"Vvners' concerns.
The City currently has a policy regarding participation in 1913 Block Act proceedings.
According to this policy, the City will provide all engineering, inspection and
administrative services at no cost to the property owners. It is the City's responsibility to
relocate or replace all existing public improvements, which would be in conflict with the
new improvements, including utilities, and costs associated with construction of the curb,
gutter and sidewalk, and street reconstruction. These costs would not be assessed to the
property owners. The property owners would be responsible to pay for all costs
associated with the driveway apron construction and any costs associated with the
relocation of private improvements (only ifprivate improvements were originally located
in the public right-of-way prior to construction).

The improvements included within this district consist of the reconstruction of the aspha1t
concrete street, construction of monolithic curb, gutter and sidewalk, and miscellaneous
associated drainage and sewer facilities. The five-foot sidewalk was constructed to
match the existing sidewalk at the south end of Dixon Drive. Where driveways were
located, a driveway apron was constructed to provide a transition bet\Veen the street, the
sidewalk and the driveways.
In addition to the street and sidewalk improvements, the City had coordinated with the
utility companies to relocate overhead utilities. This work was conducted in conjunction
with the street improvement project.
Total construction cost for the project was approximately $632,000.00. The amount
allocated to the property owners was $142,135.31.
Method of Apportionment
Costs must be apportioned to each property in proportion to the benefit received by that
property. In apportioning the cost of street improvements, it can generally be assumed
that the property adjacent to the improvements will receive the direct benefit. The
adjacent properties would be most likely to use the improvements, particularly with
respect to the driveway aprons. Additionally, construction of street and sidewalk
improvements generally results in increased property values for the adjacent residences.
For this project, the City agreed that the sidewalks and street improvements should be
financed by the City due to the use of the street and sidewalk as a general public route for
the residents within the Castle Park area. It is generally the City's policy to pay for
replacement of existing improvements and City staff costs related to planning, design,
surveying and construction inspection. Therefore, the only cost that was to be paid by the
property owners is the cost of constructing the driveway aprons and any relocation of
private improvements. The final property owner's share of the cost for the street
improvement project was $142,135.31
The breakdown of construction costs among the thirty-eight properties within the district
is shown in the following table. For each property, the square footage of driveway apron
was individually calculated, which includes the actual driveway and the wing area on
each side of the driveway. Private improvement relocation is also included in the
property owners' construction costs.

ITEM TITLE:
REVIEWED BY:
Resolution Establishing the Appropriations Limit for
the City of Chula Vista for Fiscal Year 2006-07
......
Director of Fin~reasure~
City Manager II ft-tL -pI< (4/5ths Vote: Yes _No---X..)
SUBMITTED BY:
Article XIIIB of the California Constitution approved by the voters in 1979 and commonly
referred to as the Gann Initiative, requires each local government to establish an
Appropriations Limit by resolution each year at a regularly scheduled meeting or noticed
special meeting. The purpose of the limit is to restrict spending of certain types of
revenues to a level predicated on a base year amount increased annually by an inflation
factor.
RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council adopt a resolution establishing an
appropriations limit of $446,907,029 for the 2005-06 fiscal year.
BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: Not applicable.
DISCUSSION:
Article XIIIB of the California Constitution, approved by the voters in 1979, imposed the
concept of spending limits on local governments. This Constitutional provision and related
implementing legislation specifies that annual increases in appropriations financed from
"Proceeds of Taxes" are limited to a base year (1978-79) amount increased annually by an
inflation factor comprised of the change in population of the City combined with the greater
of the change in new non-residential construction or the change in the California per capita
personal income. By definition, "Proceeds of Taxes" includes such revenues as property
taxes, sales and use taxes, utility users taxes, transient occupancy taxes, and state
subventions. Revenues from other sources like fees/charges and federal grants are
considered "Non-Proceeds of Taxes" and are not subject to the annual spending limit.
This calculation has always been perfunctory for the City of Chula Vista, since the
proceeds of taxes for the City are far less than the statutory appropriation limit.
The State Department of Finance and the San Diego County Assessor's Office are
charged with providing the data necessary for local jurisdictions to establish their
7-1
Page 2, Item -;
Meeting Date 6/13/06
appropriation limit. According to these sources, for purposes of the fiscal year 2005-06
calculation, the population increased 4.35% and California per capita personal income
increased by 5.26%. New non-residential construction increased 1.78% and was not used
in the formula to compute the limit since this increase was lower than the increase in
California per capita personal income.
The fiscal year 2005-06 Appropriation Limit has been calculated as follows:
Fiscal Year 2004-05 Appropriation Limit
$406,875,338
Increased by an inflation factor composed
of the increases in population and California
per capita personal income
X 1.0984
Fiscal Year 2005-06 Appropriations Limit
$446.907.029
The "Proceeds of Taxes" as included in the fiscal year 2005-06 Proposed Budget that are
subject to the appropriations limit are estimated to be $78,869,186 (see attachment).
Therefore the City has what is referred to as an appropriation "gap" of $368,037,843
($446,907,029 - $78,869,186). Simply stated, this means that the City could collect and
spend up to $368,037,843 more in taxes during fiscal year 2005-06 without exceeding the
Constitutional limit.
FISCAL IMPACT: This action will enable the City to appropriate and spend tax revenues
estimated at $78,869,186 included in the proposed budget for fiscal year 2005-06.

The City has an existing Investment Policy and Guidelines to ensure the prudent

be adopted by resolution of the City Council on an annual basis after being reviewed to
ensure consistency with the overall objectives of preservation of principal, liquidity, and

RECOMMENDATION: That Council adopt Resolution
Investment Policy and Guidelines.
maintaining the existing
BOARDS & COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
Not Applicable
DISCUSSION: The City's Investment Policy and Guidelines adopted on June 7,
2005 by Resolution 2005-184 were intended to provide direction for the prudent
investment of temporarily idle cash, and for maximizing the efficiency of the cash
management process. The stated goal is to enhance the economic condition of the City
while ensuring the safety of funds invested. The policy includes a list of specific
investment instruments available under the relevant California Government Code
provisions, 53600 et. seq. and 53635 et. seq. Each investment transaction is made in the
context of first ensuring the "safety" of principal, second, investing only for that timeframe
that the cash is not needed for operational purposes ("liquidity"), and last seeking the
highest return possible ("yield") provided that the first two factors are met.
It is recommended that the existing Policy be re-adopted as is. The Policy was recently
amended last year to include additional information as required to meet the Association of
Public Treasurers of the United States and Canada (APTUSC) certification standards,
and no further amendments are recommended at this time.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no direct fiscal impact by this action.

CITY OF CHULA VISTA
STATEMENT OF INVESTMENT POLICY AND GUIDELINES
FISCAL YEAR 2005/2006
1.0 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.
2.0 Policy:
The investment practices and policies of the City of Chula Vista are based upon state law and
prudent money management. The primary goals of these practices are:
A. To ensure compliance with all Federal, State, and local laws governing the investment of
public funds under the control of the Director of Finance/Treasurer.
B. To protect the principal monies entrusted to the City's Finance Department.
C. Achieve a reasonable rate of return within the parameters of prudent risk management while
minimizing the potential for capital losses arising from market changes or issuer default.
3.0 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.
3.1 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

· Enterprise Funds
· Trust and Agency 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

CITY OF CHULA VISTA
STATEMENT OF INVESTMENT POLICY AND GUIDELINES
FISCAL YEAR 2005/2006
4.0 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 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. ..."
4.1 Personal Responsibility:
The Director of Finance/Treasurer, Assistant Director of Finance and Treasury 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.
5.0 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:
5.1 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.
5.2 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
Page 3 of 17
8-6
CITY OF CHULA VISTA
STATEMENT OF INVESTMENT POLICY AND GUIDELINES
FISCAL YEAR 2005/2006
compliance with any indenture agreement, as applicable. Liquidity is essential to the safety of
principal.
5.3 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 16.1.
6.0 Delegation of Authority:
The Director of Finance/Treasurer shall be responsible for all transactions undertaken and shall
establish a system of controls to regulate the activities of subordinate officials. The
responsibility for the day-to-day investment of City funds will be delegated to the Treasury
Manager under the general direction of the Assistant Director of Finance.
7.0 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 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 (FFPC)].
8.0 Authorized Financial Dealers and Institutions:
The City's Director of Finance/Treasurer will maintain a list of the [mancial institutions and
brokers/dealers authorized to provide investment and depository services and will perform an
annual review of the [mancial condition and registrations of qualified bidders and require annual
audited financial statements to be on file for each company. 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.
As far as possible, all money belonging to, or in the custody of, a local agency, including money
paid to the City's Director of Finance/Treasurer or other official to pay the principal, interest, or
penalties of bonds, shall be deposited for safekeeping in state or national banks, savings
associations, federal associations, credit unions, or federally insured industrial loan companies in
this state selected by the City's Director of Finance/Treasurer; or may be invested in the
investments set forth in Section 9.0. To be eligible to receive local agency money, a bank,
Page 4 of 17
8-7
CITY OF CHULA VISTA
STATEMENT OF INVESTMENT POLICY AND GUIDELINES
FISCAL YEAR 2005/2006
savings association, federal association, or federally insured industrial loan company shall have
received an overall rating of not less than "satisfactory" in its most recent evaluation by the
appropriate federal financial supervisory agency of its record of meeting the credit needs of
California's communities, including low- and moderate-income neighborhoods.
To provide for the optimum yield in the investment of City funds, the City's investment
procedures shall encourage competitive bidding on transactions from approved brokers/dealers.
In order to be approved by the City, the dealer must meet the following criteria: (i) the dealer
must be a "primary" dealer or regional dealer that qualifies under Securities and Exchange
Commission Rule 15C3-1 (Uniform Net Capital Rule); (ii)the dealer's institution must have an
office in California; (iii)the dealer must be experienced in institutional trading practices and
familiar with the California Government Code as related to investments appropriate for the City;
and (iv) all other applicable criteria, as may be established in the investment procedures. All
brokers/dealers and financial institutions who desire to become qualified bidders for investment

CITY OF CHULA VISTA
STATEMENT OF INVESTMENT POLICY AND GUIDELINES
FISCAL YEAR 2005/2006
maintain a daily principal per share value of $1.00 per share and distribute interest monthly,
and must have a minimum of $500 million in assets under management. The purchase price
of the shares may not include commission.
M. THE LOCAL AGENCY INVESTMENT FUND (LAIF)
LAIF is a special fund of the California State Treasury through which any local government
may pool investments. The City may invest up to $40 million in this fund. Currently, the
City has established two (2) agency funds through which the Director of Finance/Treasurer
may invest the unexpended cash for all funds: The City of Chula Vista City Fund, and the
Chula Vista Redevelopment Agency Fund. Investments in LAIF are highly liquid and may
be converted to cash within 24 hours.
9.1 Investment Pools:
The City's Director of Finance/Treasurer or designee shall be required to investigate all local
government investment pools and money market mutual funds prior to investing and performing
at least a quarterly review thereafter while the City is invested in the pool or the money market
fund. LAIF is authorized under provisions in Section 16429.1 of the California Government
Code as an allowable investment for local agencies even though some of the individual
investments of the pool are not allowed as a direct investment by a local agency.
10.0 Portfolio Adjustments:
Should any investment listed in section 9.0 exceed a percentage-of-portfolio limitation due to an
incident such as fluctuation in portfolio size, the affected securities may be held to maturity to
avoid losses. When no loss is indicated, the Director of Finance/Treasurer shall consider
reconstructing the portfolio basing his or her decision on the expected length of time the
portfolio will be unbalanced. If this occurs, the City Council shall be notified.
11.0 Collateralization:
Under provisions of the California Government Code, California banks, and savings and loan
associations are required to secure the City's deposits by pledging government securities with a
value of 110 % of principal and accrued interest. California law also allows financial institutions
to secure City deposits by pledging first trust deed mortgage notes having a value of 150% of the
City's total deposits. Collateral will always be held by an independent third party. A clearly
marked evidence of ownership (safekeeping receipt) must be supplied to the City and retained.
The market value of securities that underlay a repurchase agreement shall be valued at 102% or
greater of the funds borrowed against those securities and the value shall be adjusted no less than
quarterly. Since the market value of the underlying securities is subject to daily market
fluctuations, the investments in repurchase agreements shall be in compliance if the value of the
underlying securities is brought back up to 102% no later than the next business day. The
Director of Finance/Treasurer, at his or her discretion, may waive the collateral requirement for
Page 8 of 17
8-11
CITYOFCHULA VISTA
STATEMENT OF INVESTMENT POLICY AND GUIDELINES
FISCAL YEAR 2005/2006
deposits that are fully insured up to $100,000 by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The
right of collateral substitution is granted.
12.0 Safekeeping and Custody:
All City investments shall identify the City of Chula Vista as the registered owner, and all
interest and principal payments and withdrawals shall indicate the City of Chula Vista as the
payee. All securities shall be safe kept with the City itself or with a qualified fmancial
institution, contracted by the City as a third party. All agreements and statements will be subject
to review annually by external auditors in conjunction with their audit. In the event that the City
has a financial institution hold the securities, a separate custodial agreement shall be required.
All securities shall be acquired by the safekeeping institution on a "Delivery-Vs-Payment"
(DVP) basis. For Repurchase Agreements, the purchase may be delivered by book entry,
physical delivery or by third-party custodial agreement consistent with the Government Code.
The transfer of securities to the counter party bank's customer book entry account may be used
for book entry delivery.
13.0 Diversification:
The City's investment portfolio will be diversified to avoid incurring unreasonable and avoidable
risks associated with concentrating investments in specific security types, maturity segment, or in
individual fmancial institutions. With the exception of U.S. Treasury securities and authorized
pools, no more than 60% of the total investment portfolio will be invested in a single security
type or with a single fmancial institution. In addition, no more than 10% of the investment
portfolio shall be in securities of anyone issuer except for U.S. Treasuries and U.S. Government
Agency issues.
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 anyone
issuer would not unduly harm the City's cash flow.
B. Market risk, defmed as the risk of market value fluctuations due to overall changes in the
general level of interest rates, shall be mitigated by structuring the portfolio so that securities
mature at the same time that major cash outflows occur, thus eliminating the need to sell
securities prior to their maturity. 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.

CITY OF CHULA VISTA
STATEMENT OF INVESTMENT POLICY AND GUIDELINES
FISCAL YEAR 2005/2006
14.0 Maximum Maturities:
To the extent possible, the City will attempt to match its investments with anticipated cash flow
requirements. Unless matched to a specific cash flow, the City will not directly invest in
securities maturing more than five (5) years from the date of purchase, 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.
15.0 Internal Control:
The Director of Finance/Treasurer shall establish a system of internal controls designed to
prevent loss of public funds due to fraud, employee error, misrepresentation by third parties, or
unanticipated market changes. No investment personnel 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. This review will provide internal control by assuring compliance with policies and
procedures for the investments that are selected for testing. Additionally, account reconciliation
and verification of general ledger balances relating to the purchasing or maturing of investments
and allocation of investments to fund balances shall be performed by the Finance Department
and approved by the Director of Finance/Treasurer. To provide further protection of City funds,
written procedures prohibit the wiring of any City funds without the authorization of at least two
of the following four designated City staff:
1. Director of Finance/Treasurer
2. Assistant Director of Finance
3. Treasury Manager
4. Fiscal Operations Manager
16.0 Performance Standards:
This Investment Policy shall be reviewed at least annually by the Director of Finance/Treasurer
to ensure its consistency with the overall objective of preservation of principal, liquidity, and
return, and its relevance to current law and financial and economic trends. All financial assets of
all other funds shall be administered in accordance with the provisions of this Investment Policy.
The monies entrusted to the Director of Finance/Treasurer will be held in a passively managed
("hold to maturity") portfolio. However, the Director of Finance/Treasurer will use best efforts
to observe, review, and react to changing conditions that affect the portfolio, and to do so in a
manner that is consistent with this Investment Policy.

CITY OF CHULA VISTA
STATEMENT OF INVESTMENT POLICY AND GUIDELINES
FISCAL YEAR 2005/2006
16.1 Market Yield (Benchmark):
The investment portfolio shall be managed to attain a market-average rate of return throughout
budgetary and economic cycles, taking into account the City's investment risk constraints and
cash flow. Investment return becomes a consideration only after the basic requirements of
investment safety and liquidity have been met. Because the investment portfolio is designed to
operate on a 'hold-to-maturity' premise (or passive investment style) and because of the safety,
liquidity, and yield priorities, the performance benchmark that will be used to determine whether
market yields are being achieved shall be the average of the monthly LAIF rate and the 12-month
rolling average 2 - Year Constant Maturity Treasury (CMT) rate. While the City will not make
investments for the purpose of trading or speculation as the dominant criterion, the Director of
Finance/Treasurer shall seek to enhance total portfolio return by means of ongoing portfolio and
cash management. The prohibition of highly speculative investments precludes pursuit of gain
or profit through unusual risk and precludes investments primarily directed at gains or profits
from conjectural fluctuations in market prices. The Director of Finance/Treasurer will not
directly pursue any investments that are leveraged or deemed derivative in nature. However, as
long as the original investments can be justified by their ordinary earning power, trading in
response to changes in market value can be used as part of on-going portfolio management.
17.0 Reporting:
The Director of Finance/Treasurer shall submit a quarterly investment report to the City Council
and City Manager following the end of each quarter. This report will include the following
elements:
· Type of investment
· Institutional Issuer
. Purchase Date
. Date of maturity
. Amount of deposit or cost of the investment
. Face value of the investment
. Current market value of securities and source of valuation

. Monthly and Year-to-date Budget Amounts for Interest Income
. Percentage of Portfolio by Investment Type
. Days to Maturity for all Investments
. Comparative report on Monthly Investment Balances & Interest Yields

BACKGROUND
Staff seeks to enter into a second agreement with The Centre for Organization
Effectiveness for professional staff development consultant services. The proposed
agreement is the second consultant assignment with The Centre this fiscal year. The

Leadership academies for the City. The total consultant fee for both agreements is
$49,7 65 for the Development Services Departments Management Academy + $32,765

Since the total consultant fee for both of The Centre agreements exceeds $50,000 this
fiscal year, Council approval is required. Staff is recommending waiving the formal
consultant selection process and enter into the second agreement with The Centre for
the specified professional staff development consultant services. The recommendation
is based on The Centre's qualifications and experience, the limited market for their
expertise, and their satisfactory work performance on previous professional staff
development consultant assignments.

instrumental in assisting the City of Chula Vista over the years on executive leadership

market for their expertise, and their satisfactory work performance on previous
consultant assignments. The proposed agreement with THE CENTRE is for the following
work assignments:
· Develop and present a five-day Executive Leadership Academy for middle
managers, senior managers, and executive managers of the City of Chula Vista to
help prepare for succession planning and workforce development. Facilitate
planning sessions with key senior and executive managers in the City. The scope of
work for the Agreement (Exhibit A) includes:
· Develop and conduct a executive leadership academy;
. Meet with key senior and executive managers to determine needs,
interest, and issues;
· Tailor the Executive Leadership Academy to the City of Chula Vista and
managers;
· Tailor and facilitate planning sessions between the Human Resources
Director or designee and Assistant City Managers;
· Provide a facilitator, presenter and/or coach for each of the five training
modules, providing all materials.
FISCAL IMPACT
The total consultant fee to date with The CENTRE is $49,765. The proposed agreement is
the second consultant assignment with The CENTRE this fiscal year. The total consultant
fee for the proposed agreement is $ 32,765.00 for a total amount of $82,530 with The
CENTRE this fiscal year. Staff has identified $32,765 in the Human Resources OED budget
to pay for the consultant services. Therefore, no additional appropriations are being
requested.

CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA STATEMENT
Item: I (J
Meeting Date: 6/13/06
ITEM TITLE:
PUBLIC HEARING: Consideration of adopting a resolution to amend
the Master Fee Schedule to increase the Nature Center Admission Fee.
REVIEWED BY:
RESOLUTION: Resolution of the City Council of the City of Chula Vista
amending the Master Fee Schedule to increase the Nature Center
Admission Fee.
Nature Center D.irect~
~r
City Manager f)/ .~.
SUBMITTED BY:
(4/5ths Vote: Yes_ NoL)
The Nature Center's current admission fees became effective in September 2003 following the
opening of the David A. Wergeland Shark & Ray Experience and Eagle Mesa exhibits.
Consistent with the plan proposed at that time, admission fees have been re-evaluated in
anticipation of the completion of the latest major expansion and upgrade of exhibits. Admission
fees are recommended to increase by a modest amount, to be effective following the grand re-
opening in July.
RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council adopts the resolution approving the proposed
amendments to the Nature Center Admission Fee schedule.
BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: The Nature Center Board of Trustees
unanimously approved the revised admission fee schedule at its 5/18/06 meeting.
DISCUSSION:
For most of the 19 years the Nature Center has been open, a very modest admission fee, based
on age brackets, has been charged to visitors. The City Council approved an increase to these
rates, effective September 2, 2003, following the opening of the David A. Wergeland Shark &
Ray Experience and Eagle Mesa exhibits earlier that year. The annual General Fund revenue
from this fee averaged approximately $48,000 prior to September 2003, and since then has
averaged $68,000.
Consistent with the plan proposed to Council in consideration of the 2003 action, it is proposed
that the rates be again adjusted following the opening of the Wergeland Family Discovery
Center (CIP Project # GG 175) in July.
The rates being proposed are based on other regional "similar" family attractions and in
consideration of the desire to keep the Nature Center affordable and accessible to all who wish
to visit. In most age brackets, the new rate is $1 more than the 2003 rate.

FISCAL IMPACT:
The opening of the new exhibits is expected to result in an increase in visitor volume. This,
coupled with the admission fee increase is estimated to provide an additional $25,000 to
$30,000 of revenue to the General Fund annually. This new revenue level would account for
about 8% of the Nature Center's annual budget of $1,180,000. Other sources of revenue that
offset General Fund support include grants, special event fees, corporate sponsorships,
individual donations, and retail sales.

REVIEWED BY:
The Missions at Sunbow complex, originally built as luxury apartments, consists of32 three-bedroom
units, 178 two-bedroom units, and 126 one-bedroom units arranged into 21 three-story buildings; a
6,600 sq.ft. community clubhouse, a pool, a tot lot, a fitness center, a private theater, and business
center for residents; and 625 garage, carport, and open parking spaces.
Environmental Status: The Environmental Review Coordinator has reviewed the proposed project
for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined that the
proj ect qualifies for a Class 1 (existing facilities) categorical exemption pursuant to Section 15301 of
the State CEQA Guidelines. Thus, no further environmental review is necessary.
Inclusionary Housing Status: The City Attorney's office has determined that no low- or moderate-
income units will be required by the Applicant or any future development within the Missions
project. The low-income housing requirements for the Sunbow development project have been
satisfied by another project. Missions at Sunbow previously satisfied its affordable housing
requirements through lease of 80 rental units to moderate-income households. There are no further
obligations.
Conflict of Interest Status: There are no potential conflicts ofinterest for Planning Commissioners or
City Council members, as none live within a SOD-feet radius ofthe exterior edge ofthe subject site.
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council adopt the attached Resolution approving the Tentative Subdivision Map based
on the findings and subj ect to the conditions contained in the attached draft City Council Resolution.

Meeting Date: 6/13/06
BOARDS AND COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
On May 10, 2006, the Planning Commission considered the proposed project and voted (5-0-0-0)
recommending that the City Council approve the Tentative Subdivision Map application.
DISCUSSION:
1. Project Background
This is a request for a Tentative Subdivision Map for a Condominium Conversion of an existing
apartment complex that was constructed in 2003 and consists of 336 apartment units and common
open space. Tentative and Final map approvals are required to create the one-lot 336-unit
condominium map, with final action by the City Council.
Condominium conversion projects in Chula Vista may require Design Review. However, since this
project was approved for its original construction on December 18, 2000 and is not proposing any
exterior building upgrades or modifications as part of the Tentative Map application, further Design
Review is not required at this time.
Mr. Hamlin of the Lorna Corporation filed this application in June 2005 on behalf ofthe original
developer, the Morgan Group. Subsequently the property was sold to Equity Residential, but Mr.
Hamlin was retained to continue processing the conversion application. The Planning Commission
was originally scheduled to consider this application on March 8; however, shortly before the hearing
date staffbecame aware that the new property management for the apartment complex had sent out a
notice to the tenants that the complex was not being converted. The applicant explained to staff that
Equity Residential did wish to proceed with the conversion process, but the actual sale of units
would probably not take place for some time.
To eliminate confusion, the applicant agreed to a continuance to give stafftime to send a letter to the
tenants explaining the conflicting notifications and clarifying that the conversion hearings would
indeed take place (see Attachment G.) hI response to that letter staff received several phone calls
requesting clarification of the process. One tenant brought another issue to staff s attention, namely
that there is a deed restriction on the property that would prevent the apartments from being
converted to condominiums units until the year 2013. Further consultation with the applicant
revealed that this was a private agreement between the seller and the buyer and does not restrict the
City's ability to proceed with the approval of this application. This restriction can be lifted at some
point by agreement between the new owners, Equity Residential, and the seller, The Morgan Group.
2. Project Site and Setting
The site is a rectangular and level, 14.58-acre lot with an existing apartment complex located at 825

TOTAL 336
The units were originally proposed in 2000 as luxury apartment units and feature upscale amenities.
Each unit has 9-ft ceilings; designer kitchen cabinets and countertops; full appliance packages
(washer/dryer, refrigerator, dishwasher, disposal, microwave ovens); walk-in closets; oversized
garden-style bathtubs; interior decorator finishes (crown moldings and ceiling fans); individual unit
intrusion security alarms; sound proofing construction; private open space (patio or balcony) with
exterior storage/utility closets attached directly to the units; and some units with garages providing
direct interior entrances to the attached unit.
Storage space is provided in existing walk-in closets, laundry rooms, and utility closets for all units,
although not all units have the full amount of required storage. One hundred cU.ft. of additional
storage space is proposed to be added to each of the 184 existing garages. Storage area is also
provided through utilizing a portion of the patio and balcony utility closets that also contain hot
water heaters. The units are already served by separate gas and electric meters, while water and sewer
will be the responsibility of the Hoineowners Association.
No exterior structural changes or modifications are proposed, outside of minor repairs and paint
touchup where necessary, and no interior building upgrades are proposed. The units were
constructed in 2003 and are generally in excellent condition. The Applicant intends to perform a
thorough cleaning of each unit before sale to the ultimate buyer, and also intends to replace worn
carpet and repaint the unit interiors on an as-needed basis. Staff has recommended a condition to
repair and replace sidewalks and ADA ramps where needed.

ANALYSIS:
Page No.6, Item: ~
Meeting Date: 6/13/06
Although this is a basic request to convert this apartment complex into condominium units, it is not
the owners stated intention to sell the units at this time. They simply wish to preserve their ability to
sell at some time in the future by complying with the subdivision rules as they exist today. This is
the first such request (i.e. known deferred sales) the City has received and staffs evaluation has been
complicated by the deed restriction mentioned in the background section of this report. Staff has
considered the impacts of a delayed sales proposal and believes that the proposed conditions of
approval are sufficient to allow approval ofthe request in keeping with all current requirements of
the State Subdivision Map Act and the City of Chula Vista Subdivision Ordinance. The following
sections provide staffs analysis of the aspects of this request.
Noticing Documentation
Pursuant to Section 66452 of the Subdivision Map Act, condominium conversion projects must satisfy
certain noticing requirements. The applicant has completed the tenant noticing required by the State
and by the Municipal Code prior to Tentative Map consideration, including "Form A", the "60-Day
Notice to All Existing Tenants of Intent to convert"; and "Form B", the "Notice to all Prospective
Tenants of Intent to Convert". Table 4 below identifies the noticing requirements and when existing
and prospective tenants should receive them. The tenants have been aware of the condominium
conversion project proposal since Form A was sent in September of2005, and will be given notice of
having the first option to purchase a unit. Sample notices provided by the Applicant are attached (see
Attachment C, Noticing Documentation).

HomebuverlRelocation Assistance:
The applicant will provide the following regarding assistance to tenants during the condominium
sales process (see Homebuyer Assistance Letter, Attachment D):
1. All tenants in occupancy when the proj ect sales office is ready to open will be contacted and
informed of their ability to acquire their unit. Based on current price estimates, the Applicant
believes that most, if not all, tenants will be able to acquire their units (subject to lender
approval) at an after-tax monthly cost comparable to their current rental payment. Specific
pricing and payment data will be provided to tenants and a meeting held to answer their
questions.
2. If tenants choose to purchase their unit, a discount from the "market" price will be given to
them to assist in their closing, in an amount from $2,000 to $4,000, and will be offered to all
tenants consistently.
3. Tenants who choose to not buy their unit but who wish to continue renting will be allowed to
remain in their unit, on a month-to-month basis until their unit is required for sale to the
public. Additionally, they will receive priority to rent another unit in the complex, if one is
available.
4. A referral list of available rental units will be made available to tenants prior to their lease
expiration. The list will be generated by the Community Development Department (CDD)
or, if not available from CDD, by the Applicant.
The applicant is not providing any relocation assistance to renters who choose not to purchase their
unit. Applicant has noted that due to Missions at Sunbow's current rents, which are higher than most
projects in the region, it is believed that few if any tenants will have difficulty fmding a new rental
unit at a comparable or lower rent. Staff has included a condition of approval requiring that the
applicant provide evidence that the requirements of the homebuyer assistance program have been
satisfied prior to approval of the fmal map.
Property Condition Assessment Report
Because the apartment complex was built under the 1998 Uniform Building Code, a "Physical
Condition Report" is not required; however, the Applicant did submit one, which lists a
recommendation to address fire sprinkler systems without annual inspection tags posted (see
Attachment E, "Property Condition Report - Executive Summary"). Staff has incorporated this
recommendation in the Tentative Map conditions of approval. Table 5 below lists the existing services

Staff is recommending that the project meet current Fire Code requirements, including smoke
detectors and fire extinguishers, and be inspected and approved by the Fire Department.
Municival Code Requirements:
Conversion of Dwelling Units to Independent Ownership (CYMe Chapter 15.56):
Pursuant to Chapter 15.56, Conversion of Dwelling Units to Independent Ownership, apartments
converted to condominiums for sale must address the following issues: parking, adequate storage for
each unit, common useable open space areas, and must satisfy fire and Uniform Building Code
standards before occupancy.
A. Fire Protection: The locations of existing on-site fire hydrants have the approval of the Fire
Department and shall not be relocated. The project must provide upgraded fire extinguishers
and smoke alarms. The project is also conditioned to comply with current fire protection
requirements.
B. Uniform Building Code: The project was constructed in 2003 underthe 1998 Uniform Building
Code. The Building Department reviewed the "Property Condition Assessment Report"
prepared by Land America Commercial Services, and found that the Project will satisfy the
Building Code requirements if the recommended improvements are constructed or put in place.
These requirements are generally described in the Property Condition Assessment Report
Executive Summary, and implementing conditions of approval specified in the draft City
11-8
Page No.9, Item: ~
Meeting Date: 6/13/06
Council Resolution of Approval.
C. Open Space -- Common Open Space: CVMC Section 19.28.090 requires 480 square feet of
common usable open space per 3-bedroom unit and 400 square feet per 2-bedroom or 1-
bedroom unit; therefore, the project must provide a minimum of 136,960 square feet of open
space. This project provides 139,866 SF of open space, which is an excess of2,900 SF. The
existing open space includes private patios or balconies on all units, a 6,626 SF common open
space comprising the clubhouse and leasing area, and approximately 108,250 SF oflandscaped
and usable open space area.
D. Storage: Section 15.56.020 requires adequate storage area for each unit. Three-BR units require
250 cu. ft. of storage, 2-BR units require 200 cu. ft., and I-BR units require 150 cu. ft. Existing
and proposed storage space is provided for the proj ect, including interior closets, utility closets,
and garages, although all units may not have the full amount of required storage. The
Applicant has provided some information regarding the cu. ft. contained in each unit type (see
Attachment B3, Unit Storage Areas), but it is not entirely clear as to what type of storage is
provided, i.e., the dimensions of the space and whether it's a shelf above the laundry
appliances, a portion of a laundry room or hot water utility closet, or a linen closet.
In addition to the existing storage, the proj ect proposes to add 100 cubic feet of storage to the
184 tuck-under individual garages. Because the Applicant has not yet designated which
condominium units would be assigned a garage, it is not possible to assess how this proposed
garage storage affects the overall storage amount in the individual units. Therefore, staff
recommends a condition that prior to approval of the Final Map, the Applicant shall provide the
dimensions of all storage areas in the project to accurately depict the storage provided.
All units have hot water heater utility closets off their patio or balcony. Because the project is
relatively new (constructed in 2003), it did not propose to change out the water heaters;
however, in other condominium conversion projects, other developers have changed out to
tankless hot water units, which frees up much more space in the utility closets.
Per CVMC section 15.56.070, in considering tentative maps for condominium development
and evaluating the manner in which storage space is provided, the Planning Commission may
recommend and the City Council may approve departures from the stated standards after
review of each proposal. Departures shall be based on the merits of the individual project
when good cause can be shown.
In this case, the Planning Commission is recommending that for any units not meeting the
100 percent storage requirement, the Applicant shall change out the existing hot water
heaters for tankless hot water units, thereby freeing up more of the exterior utility closet
space for the required storage. Staff has included this as a condition of approval in the draft
City Council resolution, and also that for the Final Map the Applicant shall provide all
11-9
Page No.1 0, Item: II
Meeting Date: 6/13/06
cabinet, shelving, and closet dimensions to prove that the storage meets all minimum
dimensioning requirements.
E. Housing Code: The Project is required to conform to Uniform Housing Code requirements in
existence at the time of the approval of the Subdivision Map. The project has completed a
housing inspection and is required by condition of approval to correct any deficiencies prior to
Final Map approval.
F. Protective Lighting Standards: This proj ect went through Design Review in December 2000 as
part of the original development application. All the original Design Review conditions
regarding lighting were fulfilled to the satisfaction of the City, including conformance with
Section 17.28.030 and 17.28.040 of the Municipal Code.
G. Off-street parking: Per the Sunbow SPA parking requirements, 1-BR units need 1.5 parking
spaces, 2-BR units 2 parking spaces, and 3-BR units 2.5 parking spaces. The Project meets the
Sunbow SPA parking requirement, providing a total 625 parking spaces, consisting of 184
parking stalls in the "tuck-under" parking garages, 170 carport stalls, and 271 open spaces.
Twelve handicapped spaces are included in the total.
H. Design Guidelines: It has been determined that since this project went through Design Review
in December 2000 as part of the original development application, no further Design Review is
required. All the original Design Review conditions regarding site design, architecture,
landscaping, fencing, lighting, and other design elements were fulfilled to the satisfaction of the
City and any other applicable agencies.
1. Separate Service Meters: Each unit has individual electric and gas meters. A Homeowners
Association will be responsible for the water and sewer service utility meters. The Applicant
shall provide CC&Rs prior to final map approval showing how this will be satisfied.
J. Housing Department Compliance Survey: The Applicant has completed a Housing Code
compliance survey and a condition of approval is included requiring the applicant to correct any
violations prior to Final Map approval.
K. The applicant submitted a "Property Condition Assessment Report" for review by the City's
Building Official. The report concludes that the existing apartment complex is in good
condition, structurally and cosmetically. However, the assessment identifies immediate repairs
to address fire sprinkler systems without annual inspection tags posted. Staffhas included the
report recommendations as conditions of approval in the draft City Council Resolution.
L. CC&Rs: The Project is conditioned to provide evidence of declarations of covenants,
conditions and restrictions in conjunction with approval of the Final Map.

Meeting Date: 6/13/06
CONCLUSION:
Based on the preceding information, staffhas concluded that the proj ect meets the requirements for a
condominium conversion and that the City Council can approve the Tentative Map subject to the
conditions listed in the draft City Council Resolution.
FISCAL IMPACT: There are no fiscal impacts from the preparation of this report and the
processing of the Tentative Subdivision Map. All costs are covered by the full cost recovery deposit
accounts.

Re: THE MISSIONS AT SUNBOW
Dear Tenant,
We are working with the current owners of the project to commence the process of
converting The Missions. at Sunbow into condominiums. Owners are required by law to
provide tenants with various notices relating to the conversion process, so you may
expect to receive such notices in the next several months. The conversion process is
relatively lengthy and it could conceivably take a year or more to complete.
Enclosed please fmd the 60-Day and l80-Day notices, as well as the Notice of
Application for Public Report. The 60-Day Notice is simply a notice stating the owner's
intention to begin the conversion process with the City of Chula Vista. The enclosed
notice is not a notice to vacate your unit, and it does not change the terms of your current
rental agreement. We want to assure you that there is no intent to terminate your tenancy
due to the conversion process; therefore, we have also included the 180-Day notice.
We wish to ease any concerns you may have regarding the lengthy conversion process
and encourage you to please call either Sam Holty with Lorna Corporation at (619) 544-
9100 or Mike Panissidi with Del Mar Pacific Group at (619) 299-8100 to answer any
questions you might have.
Thank you for your cooperation.

RE: MISSIONS AT SUNBOW /RENTERRELOCATION ASSISTANCE
Dear Ms. Putnam:
Pursuant to your request, the following outlines the steps we are planning to take to assist the
tenants at The Missions at Sunbow during the condominium sales process.
1. All tenants in occupancy when the project sales office is ready to open will be contacted
and informed of their ability to acquire their unit. Based on current price estimates, it is
believed that most, ifnot all, of the tenants will be able to acquire their units (subject to
lender approval) at an after-tax monthly cost comparable to their current rental payment.
Specific pricing and payment data will be provided to them, and a meeting will be held to
answer their questions.
2. If they choose to buy their unit, a discount from the "market" price will be given to them
to assist in their closing. This amount will range from $2,000 - $4,000 and will be offered
to all tenants consistently.
3. Tenants who choose not to buy their unit, but who wish to continue renting, will be
allowed to stay in their unit, on a month-to-month basis until their unit is required for sale
to the public. Additionally, they will receive priority to rent another unit in the complex,
if one is available.
4. A referral list of available rental units will be made available to tenants prior to their lease
expiration. The list will be generated by the Community Development Department or, if
they do not have one, by the applicant.
It should be noted that, due to its new construction and high quality, The Missions at Sunbow has
current rents that are higher than most projects in the region. Therefore, few (if any) tenants will
have difficulty finding a new rental unit at a comparable, or lower, rate.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
A property condition assessment was performed by LandAmerica Assessment Corporation (LAC) on the
Mission at Sunbow Apartments property located at 825 East Palomar Street in Chula Vista, California
(Subject Property). The assessment was conducted on March 1, 2005. The Subject Property consists of a
generally rectangular-shaped parcel that totals approximately 14.59 acres in size and is situated on the
north side of 825 East Palomar Street, approximately two miles east of Highway 805. The Subject
Property is improved with 21 three-story multi-family residential buildings that contain a total of 336
apartment units and a net rentable building area of approximately 336,690 square feet.
General Description
Building permit research indicates that the subject buildings were constructed in 2003. Current building
improvements include conventional wood frame structures constructed above on grade reinforced
concrete footings and slabs. Conventional floor and roof joist systems are employed on the three-story
apartment buildings. Each apartment building has "tuck under" garage parking spaces, which are
constructed of wood framed walls supporting wood beams and the second floor deck. Exterior walls of
the building are finished with stucco. Concrete tile shingles are employed on the buildings' roofs.
The Subject Property provides parking for 625 automobiles. There are 184 parking stalls in the "tuck-
under" parking garages, 170 carport stalls, and 271 open spaces.
Typical interior finishes include spray textured painted drywall walls and ceilings. Stained kitchen
cabinets with plastic laminate counter tops are standard throughout the rental units. Floor finishes include
wall to wall carpeting and sheet vinyl flooring in kitchens and baths.

General Physical Condition
The Subject Property was observed to be in good overall condition. Adequate maintenance of the Subject
Property's major systems, components and equipment appear to be in place including appropriate
preventative maintenance.
Conclusions/Recommendations
Deferred maintenance items and physical deficiencies that are considered significant and require
immediate repair expense include fire sprinkler systems without annual inspection tags posted. Minor
deficiencies requiring repair/maintenance are discussed in the appropriate section within this report.
Capital replacement reserves over the term of this report will be required for items such as asphalt
pavement seal coating, parking stall striping, swimming pooVspa plaster liner resurfacing, swimming
pool/spa filtration equipment replacements, exterior painting, HV AC equipment replacements, water
heater replacements, carpet/flooring replacements and kitchen appliances replacements. These items are
identified in Table 2.
The structural elements of these buildings have performed adequately for the past two years. Assuming
the recommendations in this report in reference to the Immediate and Physical Needs over the Term are
made in an appropriate time frame; a preventive/remedial maintenance program is implemented
continually; and all site systems and building components are replaced as necessary with an acceptable
standard of care, this sites estimated remaining useful life (ERUL) should be at least an additional 40
years barring any natural disasters. This is based on the observation that the foundations, which has an
expected useful life (EUL) of 50 years plus, were observed to be functioning properly with no major
deficiencies. Other site and building elements are replaceable. However, as the property ages, the
maintenance program cost should be expected to increase.
LAC can make no comment on the marketability of the site's useful life. Any qualifications and
limitations in place for the property condition assessment as provided by LAC is applicable to the
summary comments mentioned above.

Current Tenant
Missions at Sunbow
Subj ect:
Application for Condominium Conversion of 825 East Palomar
(City ofChula Vista case numbers DRC-06-l4 and PCS-06-02)
Dear Tenant:
This letter is intended to clarify the situation regarding conversion of the apartment units
in your complex to condominium ownership. An application to convert the Missions at
Sunbow apartments to condominiums was filed with the City's Planning and Building
Department on September 9, 2005 by the applicant, LDM Sunbow, LLC, for the
apartment complex's then owner MGL'Sunbow, LP. The applicant provided you
notification of that application.
. Following the initial application, Equity Residential purchased the Missions at Sunbow
property in March 2006. Their new property management sent you a letter that
mistakenly stated that they 'lladno intention of converting the property to for sale
condominiums at this time." Actually, the application for conversion to condomini'um
units is still being processed by the City of Chu1a Vista, on behalf of Equity Residential,
as they do intend to create the option for individual condominium ownership of the
apartment units. However, the time frame for when they will offer the units for sale has
not yet been established.
We previously sent out a public notice of a March 22, 2006 Planning Commission .:;f
hearing date to consider a recommendation to the City Council on the proposed ~
condominium conversion. Due to concerns that you as a tenant may have been confused ' t:;,
by conflicting information about this project, that hearing was continued and the Planning YJ
Commission will now consider the project on April 12, 2006. A City Council hearing y
will follow a few weeks later.
We hope this clarifies the status of your apartment complex. If you have any questions or
concerns after reading this, please contact project planner, Danielle Putnam, at (858) 614-
5054 or me at (619) 476-5367.

III. COMPLIANCE WITH CEQA

with the California Environmental Quality Act and has determined that the proposed project
qualifies for a Class 1 (Existing Facilities) categorical exemption pursuant to Section 15301
of the State CEQA Guidelines. Thus no further environmental review or documentation is

V. TENTATIVE SUBDIVISION MAP FINDINGS
A. Pursuant to Government Code Section 66473.5 of the Subdivision Map Act, the City
Council finds that the Tentative Subdivision Map, as conditioned herein for 825 East
Palomar Street, is in conformance with the elements of the City's General Plan, based on
the following:
1. Land Use
It is the City's goal to accommodate diversified housing types. The site is designated
Residential Medium High (11 - 18 dwelling units/acre) in the original plan and is
located within the Sunbow II Section Planning Area (SPA), where it is designated
Residential Condominium. Under the Sunbow II SPA, the project site was designated
for 206 dwelling units, but through a SPA amendment (pCM 01-04) this amount was
increased to 336 dwelling units and developed at a density of 23 dwelling units/acre.
Density transfers are allowed with the SPA's planning areas; therefore, the Project, as
conditioned, is in substantial compliance with the adopted General Plan and Sunbow
II General Development Plan and Sectional Planning Area (SPA) Plan.
2. Circulation
All off-site streets required to serve the subdivision currently exist. No street
improvements are required.
11-43
2
Resolution No. 2006-
3. Housing
The Project is consistent with the density prescribed within the Sunbow Villas II
Sectional Planning Are~ (SPA) Plan (as amended by PCM-Ol-04) and provides
attached condominium units for individual ownership. The conversion of 336
apartment units to 336 condominium units creates additional opportunities for
residential ownership.
4. Open Space
The Project includes adequate, existing on-site open space areas in the form of private
open space for each unit (patio or balcony) as well as landscaped common open space
areas and a 6,600 sq. ft. community clubhouse (including a meeting facility, a game
room, a full kitchen), swimming pool, tot lot, fitness center, private theater with 20
seats, and business center for residents' use.
5. Safety
The City Engineer, Fire and Police Departments have reviewed the proposed
subdivision of existing apartments to condominiums for conformance with City safety
policies and have determined that the proposal meets the City Standards for seismic
safety and emergency services.
B. The configuration, orientation and topography of the site allow for a feasible setting for
passive or natural heating and cooling opportunities as required by Government Code
Section 66473.1.
C. The site is physically suited for residential development and the proposal conforms to all
standards established by the City for such a project.
D. The conditions herein imposed on the grant of permit or other entitlement herein
contained is approximately proportional both in nature and extend to the impact created
by the proposed development.
VI. CONDOMINIUM CONVERSION FINDINGS
Pursuant to Chapter 15.56, Conversion of Dwelling Units to Independent Ownership, the
City Council finds that the project meets the following:
A. Fire Protection: The City Council concurs with the Fire Marshall determination that the
project as conditioned will be in substantial conformance with current fire protection
standards.
B. Uniform Building Code: City Council concurs with the Building Division of the Planning
and Building Department's determination that the "Property Condition Assessment
Report" dated March 18, 2005, prepared by LandAmerica Commercial Services,
adequately addresses compliance with the Building Code if applicable applications are
submitted and approved and the recommended improvements set forth in the report are
constructed or put in place.
3
11-44
Resolution No. 2006-
C. Storage: Section 15.56.020 requires minimum storage area for each unit. As directed by
the Planning Commission, staff has included a condition of approval whereby units not
providing 100 percent of the storage requirement shall change out the existing hot water
heaters for tankless hot water units, thereby freeing up more of the exterior utility closet
space for the required storage.
D. Housing Code: The Project will be required to comply with housing inspection
requirements.
E. Protective Lighting Standards: This project went through Design Review in December
2000 as part of the original development application. All the original Design Review
conditions regarding lighting were fulfilled to the satisfaction of the City, including
conformance with Section 17.28.030 and 17.28.040 of the Municipal Code.
F. Off-street parking: Per the Sunbow SPA parking requirements, I-BR units need 1.5
parking spaces, 2-BR units 2 parking spaces, and 3-BR units 2.5 parking spaces. The
Project meets the Sunbow SPA parking requirement, providing a total 625 parking
spaces, consisting of 184 parking stalls in the "tuck-under" parking garages, 170 carport
stalls, and 271 open spaces. Twelve handicapped spaces are included in the total.
G. Design Guidelines: It is determined that since this project went through Design Review in
December 2000 as part of the original development application, no further Design
Review is required. All the original Design Review conditions regarding site design,
architecture, landscaping, fencing, lighting, and other design elements have been fulfilled
to the satisfaction of the City, and therefore consistent with the Sunbow II design
guidelines.
H. Separate Service Meters: Each unit has individual electric and gas meters. A
Homeowners Association will be responsible for the water and sewer service utility
meters. The Applicant shall provide CC&Rs prior to final map approval showing how
this will be satisfied.
1. Housing Department Compliance Survey: The Project has completed a housing
inspection, and will be required to perform all corrections listed in the Apartment
Inspection Report prior to final inspection of a Condominium unit.
J. CC&Rs: The Project is conditioned to provide evidence of declarations of covenants,
conditions and restrictions in conjunction with the Final Map.
K. Open Space: CYMC Section 19.28.090 requires 480 square feet of common usable open
space per 3-bedroom unit and 400 square feet per 2-bedroom or I-bedroom unit;
therefore, the project must provide a minimum of 136,960 square feet of open space.
This project provides 139,866 SF of open space, which is an excess of 2,900 SF. The
existing open space includes private patios or balconies on all units, a 6,626 SF common
open space comprising the club and leasing area, and approximately 108,250 SF of
landscaped and usable open space area.

ITEM TITLE:
Resolution Approving the Public Works Operations Department's
Strategic Business Plan
Resolution Amending the FY 06 budget by appropriating $96,600
from the available balance ofthe Public Facilities DIF to purchase equipment
SUBMITTED BY:
Director of Public Works Operationso1---
City Manager i ~ pI? (4/5 Vote: Yes-X- No->
REVIEWED BY:
During the past several months, the Public Works Operations Department has developed its Strate~c
Business Plan. Throughout this process, Public Works Operations has identified several issues that
will be affecting the department within the next five years, established goals to address those issues
pro actively, and developed performance measures to track the progress in achieving those goals.
The purpose of the Public Works Operations Department is to maintain the basic infrastructure
needed for the City to exist and thrive. These basic facilities include streets, curbs, gutters,
sidewalks, wastewater and stormwater systems, City trees, and parks & open space areas. The
department currently utilizes a Work Management System, which is an automated system used for
collecting and tracking data about the work that an agency performs, to maintain the City's
infrastructure.
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: N/ A
RECOMMENDATION: That Council:
1) Adopt the Resolution approving the Public Works Operations Department Strategic
Business Plan and Operating Plan
2) Adopt the Resolution amending the the FY 06 budget by appropriating $96,600 from
the available balance of the Public Facilities DIF to purchase equipment
DISCUSSION:
Attached is the Public Works Operations Business Plan, which was developed over a period of
several months. The document identified Public Works Operations' mission, lines of business, and
programs and services.
12-1
Page 2, Item 1[1",
Meeting Date 6/13/06
The mission of the Public Works Operations Department is to provide and manage the City's
infrastructure, parks, and open space through high quality operations, maintenance and construction
in order to optimize mobility, public and environmental health, and safety. The development ofthe
Strategic Business Plan put renewed focus on achieving results for our customers both externally and
internally.
How the Strateeic Business Plan was Developed.
Operational Business Plans were developed in a facilitative process using Weidner Consulting Inc.' s
methodology. Weidner's managing for results model is consistent with and complementary to the
City's existing performance management framework. Retreats were conduced over several weeks,
beginning first with the "Assessment of the Future" Workshops. Most employees participated in one
or more half-day workshops to develop the Assessment of the Future, comprised of critical issues
and trends on the horizon which, if they continue unabated, will have a significant impact on the
community of Chula Vista.
The workshops were followed by a three-day initial retreat, at which time the strategic portion ofthe
plan was developed, based upon and informed by the Assessment of the Future, and designed to
position the Public Works Operations Department to respond pro actively to the future.
A few weeks later, most employees again returned to provide critical perspective and input, this time
participating in Purpose Statement and Performance Measure (PSPM) Sessions to develop the
operational portion of the plan, incorporating every key business function, every service delivered
and every program in the Department.
At each program's PSPM Session, employees developed a concise and compelling statement of
purpose that described the results that customers can expect to see delivered. Then, the same
employees developed a small, manageable set of clear, understandable performance measures to
which they intend to hold themselves mutually accountable. This enabled those who do the work to
share a common understanding of the purpose of their work and to mutually agree upon a definition
of "success".
After a department level review of purpose statements and performance measures, the planning team
again reconvened for a two-day final retreat to complete the plan and to confirm commitment to the
results articulated throughout the plan.
Elements of the "Strateeic Portion" of the Overational Business Plan.
Critical Issues.
The Strategic Business Plan identified five critical issues that will have a major impact on the Public
Works Operations Department and its customers over the next five years. These critical issues have
been summarized into "issue statements" as described below:
12-2
"":
Page 3, Item / 0--
Meeting Date 6/13/06
1. Aging Infrastructure. The city's aging infrastructure (roads, gutters, sidewalks, curbs, park
facilities, sewers, storm drains, and bridges) continues to deteriorate, thereby requiring more costly
replacement, repair, and maintenance; and requiring a disproportionate share of department
resources.
Not replacing or repairing corrugated metal pipe (CMP) storm drains in a timely manner is a
significant concern that will increase the need to perform more costly repairs on an emergency basis.
2. Rapid Growth of the City. The rapid growth of the city has created new infrastructure
($30MM/yr over the past seven years) that requires immediate and ongoing maintenance in order to:
o minimize future maintenance, repair, and replacement costs
o ensure the health and safety of the public, and
o keep the community attractive and livable.
Increased litter due to the city's growth has placed additional workload demands on staff and reduces
the amount of staff time available for regular maintenance of streets and parks.
The city's rapid growth and the transit oriented communities being developed has created the need
for transit resources and other alternative transportation modes for residents and visitors in order to
prevent significant traffic congestion in the future.
3. Environmental Regulations. The need to comply with complicated and sometimes competing
unfunded environmental regulations and mandates has resulted in an increase in costs and
competition for the resources needed to obtain the minimum level of flood and fire protection.
4. Graffiti. The negative image and environment created by the proliferation of graffiti in the city is
adverse to residents, businesses, and visitors:
o Creating a negative visual image of the city,
o Decreasing interest in residing and investing in the city, and
o Decreasing community pride and livability.
5. Advances and use of Technology. Because resources are limited to meet increasing demands, the
Department must be open and ready to best use appropriate technologies in order to be more efficient
and effective in deploying departmental staff and equipment.
Strate2:ic Objectives.
Strategic objectives are a description in measurable terms of the significant, must-do results that
Public Works Operations must accomplish over the next five years in order to proactively respond to
the critical issues. These "strategic objectives" are described as follows:
12-3
Page 4, Item ,~
Meeting Date 6/13/06
1. Aging Infrastructure. By FY 10, 90 % of potholes on high-speed roads (four lanes and larger)
will be repaired within two days of notification and the department will maintain the current backlog
for the pothole repair of all other streets at four weeks.
Improved coordination among General Services, Engineering, and Public Works Operations and
implementation of the Pavement Management System's recommended maintenance strategies will
result in a decreased need for pothole repair and patching by FY 11.
2. Growth and Infrastructure. By FY 07, to improve public safety on higher volume and higher
speed roads, 100% of those streets will be re-striped semi-annually.
By FY 10, 90% of litter in the right of way will be removed within three days of service requests
through the use of a dedicated departmental crew for litter pickup. Large items (sofas, chairs,
appliances, etc.) will be picked up the same day. The Strategic Plan originally identified that this
objective be implemented in FY07. However, due to funding concerns, implementation has been
delayed until FYi 0, as indicated.
3. Environmental Regulations. By FY 09, the Department will obtain the necessary permits to
maintain eight priority detention basins and one critical channel segment in order to reduce flooding
potential.
By FY 11, the Department will report to Council the long-term cost of providing flood control
maintenance within environmentally sensitive and other regulated areas.
In order to comply with new fire and environmental regulations for open space areas and provide
proper fire clearance, the Department, in conjunction with Engineering and Fire, will submit a
request for funding to the applicable voters by FY 08.
4. Graffiti. By FY 07, the Department will use routing software to ensure that all graffiti is removed
within 48 hours of notification.
5. Technology. By FY 08, A VL (Automatic Vehicle Locator) equipment will be installed in 60% of
identified departmental vehicles and an additional 40% by FYI O.
By FY 08, the Department will seek dedicated elP funding for current technology replacement and
the purchase of new technology.
By FY 08, the Department will seek elP funding to augment existing funding arrangements for the
purchase and installation of additional central irrigation control systems and associated weather
stations.

Lines of Business.
Public Works Operations consists of the following "lines of business": Infrastructure Maintenance,
Inspection Services, Parks & Open Space, Fleet Management, Administration, and Transit, which all
work together to deliver services to the public. Each line of business contains key result measures,
(see Strategic Plan attached) by which each manager can continuously monitor progress toward the
"vital few" critical results, and prompt appropriate operational decision-making accordingly.
The Infrastructure Maintenance Division provides maintenance of public streets, sidewalks, City
trees, and wastewater & stormwater systems. Inspection Services is charged with providing efficient
and cost-effective construction contract and permit administrative services. The Parks and Open
Space Division maintains over 400 acres of immaculately maintained parks for all to enjoy and over
1,500 aces of open space. Fleet Management is responsible for keeping City police cars, fire
apparatus, maintenance equipment and other city-owned cars and trucks in good working condition.
Administration provides business management services to all Operations' divisions including clerical
and technical support. The Transit Division provides public transit services for the residents and
visitors of the City of Chula Vista.
The Strategic Business Plan, which was developed over a period of several months, also identified
staff s need to add ah Infrastructure Maintenance Manager (IMM) to ensure that several key issue
statements and objectives developed in the operating plan are overseen and met. The IMM would
oversee the work of the sewer, storm drain, street, urban forestry, signs and striping, and graffiti
work functions, and administer the street sweeping contract. The IMM position would ensure that
the current workload demands for these work functions are addressed more efficiently and effectively
in accordance with the Strategic Business Plan. The Strategic Plan originally identified that the
Infrastructure Maintenance Manager be added in FY07. However, due to funding concerns, this
position will be requested during the two-year budget process for FY08 and FY09.
The IMM would provide support to the new Assistant Director in personnel issues and updating
policies and procedures needed for the Infrastructure Maintenance division. This position would also
work to get required permits from the Army Corps of Engineers, Department of Fish and Game,
Regional Water Quality Control Board, and the Department of Fish and Wildlife for maintenance
work in waters of the State. Furthermore, the IMM would conduct research to assure that City crews
are maintaining facilities only where the City has easements or right-of-ways. In the past, the City
has completed maintenance in areas whereby easements did not exist.
Development of the Strategic Business Plan also identified staff s need to complete more vital "street
reconstruction" repairs. Due to continued growth of the city, street maintenance crews repair only
1 % of the city's pavement inventory annually. The city currently has approximately 375 miles of
streets (950 lane miles) to maintain.

Street Maintenance Tasks.
The purpose of the Street Maintenance program is to provide asphalt and concrete structure (streets,
sidewalks, curbs and gutters) maintenance, and litter removal and trash abatement services to the
public so they can have a safe, clean, and functional right-of-ways.
Currently, the City's street maintenance is delivered through two principal methods: Capital
Improvement Projects (CIP) and in-house staff. These two principal methods are employed as a
result of the nature of the street maintenance work that can be classified in terms of being proactive
or reactive. Proactive street maintenance is characterized by activities undertaken to prolong the life
of the streets. Generally, proactive street maintenance work is of a larger scale and is accomplished
through CIPs and construction contracts by General Services. Examples of proactive street
maintenance activities include the following:
· Surface Treatments: Accomplished through crack sealing, chip or slurry seals, is a preventive
maintenance process which seals cracks in the pavement to prevent moisture from entering
the pavement and which preserves the surface of the roads. Sealing should be done every 5-7
years to prolong the life of a street to 15 years or longer depending on usage and the timing
of the application.
· Resurfacing or Pavement Overlav: The process of applying one or more inch layers of
asphalt on the street usually after 10 -12 years of use. This process can extend the life of a
street by 10 years.
· Street Reconstruction: The result of major surface wear, alligator cracking, oxidation,
crumbling asphalt, and small potholes. It is due to surface and subsurface deterioration of
major sections of the roadway. A total reconstruction of surface and sub-grade of the street is
required.
On the other hand, street repairs that are undertaken as a matter of urgency for safety reasons, or as
part of the City's daily operations because they are too small to outsource, are considered reactive
street maintenance activities. The Street Maintenance Section of the Public Works Operations
Department is responsible for performing this portion ofthe City's street maintenance. Examples of
the street maintenance service includes performance of the following tasks:
· Pothole Reoair: A pot-shape hole in a road surface that occurs when asphalt has displaced
from the sub-grade.
· Minor Street Reconstruction: The result of minor surface cracking and oxidation due to the
lack of preventative maintenance. Process involves removing deteriorated asphalt, re-
compacting surface, and placing new asphalt.

. Major Street Reconstruction: The result of major surface wear, alligator cracking, oxidation,
crumbling asphalt, and small potholes. It is due to surface and subsurface deterioration of
major sections of the roadway. A total reconstruction of surface and sub-grade of the street is
required. (Crews typically complete jobs less than 550 squarefeet.)
. Curb Line A C repairs: Work generated by Wastewater Section. Repair of a street section
directly in front of curb line that was removed while installing or repairing a sewer lateral.
. Lateral cut resurfacing: Work generated by Wastewater Section. Replace pavement that
was removed for a sewer lateral installation or repair.
. Skin oatching/caooing. (Skin Patching) Hand overlay on minor deficiencies of existing
pavement; (capping) final capping on asphalt base of reconstruction areas.
The Street Maintenance Section has two five-person construction crews that are assigned to do minor
and major street reconstruction repairs. There are four major steps associated with street
reconstruction:
. Saw cutting of the asphalt using a self-propelled saw.
. Chunking, loading, and hauling;
. Sub-grade preparation; and
. Placing and compacting hot asphalt mix.
Typically, a repair is made in two move-ins. First, the crews will pre saw cut the area that is going to
be repaired. A crew can cut 40' to 50' linear feet of asphalt per hour 4" to 5" inches deep (if the
asphalt is thicker than 6 inches, the crew has to make a double cut, thus doubling the time). Next, a
2' x 10' section of the asphalt is removed in order to give the excavator an edge to begin chunking.
The crew uses ajack hammer for this dig out portion and then temporarily back fills it with cold-mix
asphalt. The saw-cutting and removal of asphalt is normally scheduled a week or two before the
second move-in.
The second move-in consists of the removal of existing asphalt by chunking with an excavator,
loading the asphalt and debris on trucks, and hauling offsite. These tasks are very time consuming,
as it takes approximately 4 to 5 hours to complete. In addition, since staffs goal is to complete
repairs by the end ofthe work day, crews often need to double handle the material. lfthe work site is
north of"L" Street, materials are hauled to the "H" Street temporary stockpile site, stockpiled, and
then hauled to the recycle plant on another day.
Normally, a crew is able to remove and compact 550 square feet of asphalt in one work day.
However, by utilizing an Asphalt Zipper, one existing crew will be able to remove and compact an
additional 550 square of asphalt in one work day, thereby doubling their street reconstruction

production. An on-site demonstration of an Asphalt Zipper was conducted on February 10,2006, in
the west bound #2 lane of Palomar Street, west of Broadway Avenue. At the site, the Asphalt Zipper
pulverized 3,180 square feet of existing asphalt in only 45 minutes (12 ft. x 265 ft. & 10 inches
thick). In comparison, without the Asphalt Zipper, it would have taken a crew one week to saw cut
and chuck this same area. Furthermore, a crew was able to complete this reconstruction job in a 14-
hour period. In comparison, without the Asphalt Zipper, it would have taken a crew three weeks to
complete this size job.
The pul verized asphalt from the Asphalt Zipper could be reused on-site for base or backfill material
rather than hauled away. The environmental benefits of reusing a portion of the material on-site
should reduce the number of trips needed to haul materials to the recycler, paying money to have it
recycled, and hauling new base or backfill to the site. This equipment also allows new asphalt to
bond more strongly to existing pavement. The stronger bond allows for better waterproofing, thus
preventing moisture to penetrate sub-base soils and materials.
By utilizing the Asphalt Zipper, the section plans to complete more street reconstruction jobs
covering larger areas. The equipment is easily operated and costs $96,600 (a one-time expense) and
will be funded by the DIF.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Staff recommends that the City Council accept the Public Works Operations Department's Strategic
Business Plan. Staff is also recommending the addition of an Asphalt Zipper. The total initially cost
for implementation ofthe Strategic Business Plan is $96,600 for the purchase of an Asphalt Zipper.
There is no direct fiscal impact from approving this resolution in that funds expended for subsequent
fiscal years will have been approved through the normal budget or appropriation process.

quality operations, maintenance and construction in
order to optimize mobility, public and environmental

:~\'"iiiVn
The city's aging infrastructure (roads, gutters, sidewalks, curbs, park
facilities, sewers, storm drains, and bridges) continues to deteriorate,
thereby requiring more costly replacement, repair, and maintenance;
and requiring a disproportionate share of department resources.
Not replacing or repairing corrugated metal pipe (CMP) storm drains
in a timely manner is a significant concern that will increase the need
to perform more costly repairs on an emergency basis.
[~f~sq~Ls{1ijt~~Jii~j[~jl~aii'."""7
The rapid growth of the city has created new infrastructure
($30MM/yr over the past seven years) that requires immediate and
ongoing maintenance in order to:
o minimize future maintenance, repair, and replacement costs
o ensure the health and safety of the public, and
o keep the community attractive and livable.
Increased litter due to the city's growth has placed additional
workload demands on staff and reduces the amount of staff time
available for regular maintenance of streets and parks.
The city's rapid growth and the transit oriented communities being
developed has created the need for transit resources and other
alternative transportation modes for residents and visitors in order to
prevent significant traffic congestion in the future.
Hi~i~r${if~m~il!ID111ilta~1,!Y~ig,,1ite1tf4[:<<ig1#1!
The need to comply with complicated and sometimes competing
unfunded environmental regulations and mandates has resulted in an
increase in costs and competition for the resources needed to obtain
the minimum level of flood and fire protection.
lI.ssiiiiSliIilil~ji~lEQ,q~li1t1X;i(lm
The negative image and environment created by the proliferation of
graffiti in the city is adverse to residents, businesses, and visitors:
o Creating a negative visual image of the city,
o Decreasing interest in residing and investing in the city, and
o Decreasing community pride and livability.
~'
Because resources are limited to meet increasing demands, the
Department must be open and ready to best use appropriate
technologies in order to be more efficient and effective in deploying
departmental staff and equipment.

APPROPRIATING $96,600 FROM THE AVAILABLE
BALANCE OF THE PUBLIC FACILITIES DIF TO PURCHASE
EQUIPMENT
WHEREAS, Public Works Operations staff is recommending the addition of an Asphalt
Zipper; and
WHEREAS, the Asphalt Zipper would double the amount of street reconstruction
production, shortening the amount of time it would take to complete street repair projects; and
WHEREAS, the pulverized asphalt from the Asphalt Zipper could be reused on-site for
base or backfill material rather than hauled away. The environmental benefits of reusing a
portion of the material on-site should reduce the number of trips needed to haul materials to the
recycler, paying money to have it recycled, and hauling new base or backfill to the site; and
WHEREAS, the Asphalt Zipper allows new asphalt to bond more strongly to existing
pavement. The stronger bond allows for better waterproofing, thus preventing moisture to
penetrate sub-base soils and materials; and
WHEREAS, by utilizing the Asphalt Zipper, Public Works plans to complete more street
reconstruction jobs covering larger areas; and
WHEREAS, the cost of the Asphalt Zipper is $96,600, which would be a one-time
expense that will be funded by the Public Facilities DIF.

SUBMITTED BY:
Resolution adopting a Council Policy regarding Holiday Festival Guidelines
Sharon Marshall 4"-
City Attorney's Office
ITEM TITLE:
REVIEWED BY:
City Attorney
(4/5ths Vote: _ No ~
In December 2005, Council requested that the City Attorney prepare a Council Policy to provide
guidance to the Recreation Department for the selection process for participation in the City's Annual
Holiday Festival.
RECOMMENDATION: That Council adopt the Holiday Festival Guidelines Policy.
BOARDS/COMMISSION: Not applicable.
DISCUSSION: In December 2005, Council requested that the City Attorney draft a Council Policy
setting out guidelines to assist the Recreation Department in selecting participants for the City's
annual Holiday Festival.
The intent of the policy is to provide guidance to the Recreation Department so its selection process is
not impermissibly restrictive. The City Attorney's Office researched the various federal and state
constitutional issues that might be implicated by the proposed policy.
The resulting policy establishes selection criteria that recognizes the importance of honoring and
accommodating the religious and cultural traditions of all City residents but neither advocates nor
endorses any particular religion or message. However, the purpose of the Holidav Festival is: (1) to
allow students in the City's Recreation Department classes to participate in a public performance
demonstrating the skills they have learned in the Recreation Department classes. The Holiday Festival
has served as a substitute venue for the annual department-wide recitals the Recreation Department
can no longer sponsor due to increases in the number and variety of classes sponsored by the
Recreation Department. and (2) to serve as a venue where members of the Chula Vista community can
come together to celebrate the many and varied traditions of the holiday season. The policy also makes
clear that the City does not endorse non-religious messages over religious messages. The policy
provides reasonable parameters based on the time constraints of the Holiday Festival itself.
Additionally, since the Holiday Festival program has historically provided a venue for the Recreation
Department to highlight its recreation classes, the Festival is open first to instructors who teach City
Recreation Department classes and their students and local schools.
A draft of the proposed policy was sent to the Recreation Department for review and to ensure there
were no technical barriers to implementing the policy. The Recreation Department has reviewed the
policy and, if approved by Council, expects to use the guidelines in the policy in its selection process
for this year's Holiday Festival.
FISCAL IMP ACT: There is no direct fiscal impact by this action.

reasonable requests by groups or individuals who wish to participate in the Holiday Festival. It is a secular
event with the underlying purpose to bring the Chula Vista community together to celebrate all the holidays
that occur during the winter months. The event may feature traditional holiday performances and include
Santa Claus, Christmas trees and snowmen. The City recognizes that many of the traditions of the holiday
season have religious underpinnings and although the Holiday Festival is secular, no person or group will be
denied the opportunity to participate in the Festival based on the religious message conveyed by their
performance. The participation of individuals and groups who represent the broad spectrum of religious and
cultural traditions found in Chula Vista contributes to the Holiday Festival goal of bringing the community
together.
The Recreation Department will use the following procedures to select performers for the Holiday Festival. I
. Instructors who have taught classes through Recreation Department Programs in the previous
year and musical performing groups from local schools will be notified that sign ups for the
Holiday Festival will opened on a specific date. Prospective participants will be invited to
submit reauests to nerform on the snecified date.

CONTRACTS FOR POLICE INITIATED TOWING AND STORAGE
SERVICES.
SUBMITTED BY:

TOWING SERVICE RATE SCHEDULE, ELIMINATING THE TOW
REFERRAL FEE AND IMPLEMENTING A TOW LICENSE FEE,

/( UI7~
City Manager I' ~ ..(1 (4/5ths Vote: Yes_ No ~)
REVIEWED BY:
The Police Department has recently completed a Request For Proposal process to
select qualified towing operators to provide police initiated towing and impound
services.
RECOMMENDATION:
That Council:
1. Accepts proposals and awards contracts to the following tow operators: 1)
American Towing, 2) Paxton's Towing, 3) Road One Towing and 4) Anthony's
Towing
2. Approve amendments to the police-initiated Tow Operator's Rate Schedule,
eliminate the tow referral fee, implement a tow license fee and authorize the
department to make annual changes to the Tow Operator's Rate Schedule.
BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATIONS: Not Applicable
DISCUSSION:
The City of Chula Vista is authorized by Section 22671 of the California Vehicle Code to
issue a franchise or execute contracts for the towing and storage of vehicles having a
deleterious impact upon public safety. Such vehicles include, but are not limited to,
those that have been illegally parked, abandoned, involved in a serious traffic accident
14-1
Item No l tl
Meeting Date 06/13/2006
and the vehicles of persons who have been arrested. ChulaVista Municipal Code
Chapter 5.58 prescribes the basic regulations governing the selection and operation of
these tow companies. The existing tow agreements provide for consumers to use the
towing company of their choice if the towing company can arrive within a reasonable
period of time. The Officer on scene will have the discretion to provide this
accommodation based upon current pending calls-for-service.
The Police Department currently uses four companies to provide Police-initiated towing
services: Anthony's Towing, Paxton's Towing, J.e. Towing and RoadOne Towing.
Currently, each of these four companies has an identical agreement with the City and
each has provided adequate service to the City.
Request for Proposal Cycle
At the conclusion of the previous contract, staff issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) on
December 6, 2001. Following the selection process staff became concerned with fiscal
control issues in the processing of Negligent Vehicle Impound Fee's (NVIP) and Tow
Referral Fees. As a result, the 2001 RFP was cancelled.
Staff conducted a second RFP which was issued on October 30, 2003. Several
significant changes to the scope of the original RFP were made and an exhaustive
evaluation process was conducted. However, due to the length of time that it took to
process the second RFP, there were several changes in some of the tow operators'
operational capacities that warranted a cancellation of the second RFP.
The third RFP for towing related services was issued October 12, 2005. For both the
second and third RFP's, a committee consisting of the Purchasing Agent, Deputy City
Attorney and the Administrative Services Manager (from the Police Department) was
formed to ensure that the process was consistent and thorough. The committee
reviewed the previous RFP and made several changes its scope.
During the period since the contract ended, the current four companies have maintained
towing related services without any drop in service to the citizens of Chula Vista.
One significant change to the RFP process was the elimination of the Tow Referral Fee
and the introduction of a Tow License Fee (TLF). The Tow License fee will replace the
current Tow Referral Fee and is charged for each police initiated tow (currently $18 per
vehicle). For this RFP, each company that was successful in the evaluation process
was asked to place a monetary bid for the tow contract. A minimum bid amount of
14-2
Item No I ~
Meeting Date 06/13/2006
$23,750 was established and the top four bidders would be accepted for the contract.
This means that each of the top four bidders could pay differing amounts for a 25%
share of the overall tow services contract. Each company's bid would be their Tow
License Fee. This was implemented to increase fiscal control on funds involved with
police initiated tows. Instead of the companies each sending separate checks each
month to the department, they will instead send quarterly payments based upon their
bid for services.
The other change made was that the department will require individuals to pay their
Negligent Vehicle Impound Fee (currently $125) at the Police Department prior to
release of their vehicle from the tow yard. Both of these changes were made in order to
place tighter fiscal controls on the funds involved with police initiated tows. This change
in policy will eliminate 90% of the staff work involved with processing these payments
from the tow companies.
The other significant change relates to the ownership of a Heavy Duty Tow Truck.
Previous to this RFP, tow companies were required to have a Heavy Duty Tow Truck
that could tow large vehicles (such as dump trucks, "big rigs", etc). The new RFP
allowed companies to submit bids without owning a Heavy Duty Tow Truck as long as
they could demonstrate the ability to purchase the Heavy Duty Tow Truck within one
year. Tow companies without a Heavy Duty Tow Truck are required to subcontract with
another tow company for that ability to tow large vehicles during the first full year of the
contract. After the first year, companies without the Heavy Duty Tow Truck must put one
of these vehicles into their tow vehicle inventory. Staffs' reasoning behind this shift in
policy was that it allowed tow companies to submit a proposal without having to make
large capital investment prior to finding out if they were successful in the bid process.
This opened up the RFP process to more companies and was implemented in an effort
to encourage additional competition. Police Department staff also concluded that due to
the large numbers of heavy construction vehicles operating throughout the City, each
company involved in the tow services contract must have a Heavy Duty Tow Truck in
their inventory, as time will be of the essence in those instances when a heavy tow is
required.
The City received seven proposals to perform police initiated tow services. The
companies that submitted proposals were (in alphabetical order):
. American Towing - 140 Reed Court, Chula Vista
. Anthony's Auto Center - 305 E Street, Chula Vista
. Bradley's Towing - 6980 C Mission Gorge Rd., San Diego
. J.C. Towing - 2501 Faivre St., Chula Vista
. Paxton Towing - 3487 Main Street, Chula Vista
. RoadOne Towing - 3821 Calle Fortuna, San Diego
. Western Towing - 4370 Pacific Highway, San Diego
Staff has performed a comprehensive evaluation of each RFP submitted. The
evaluation process consisted of two stages:
14-3
Item No I~
Meeting Date 06/13/2006
1) Review of the written proposals by the committee
2) A site evaluation conducted by a representative from the San Diego County
Sheriffs Department. This was done in order to ensure impartial rating of each
company. The representative from the Sheriff's department has significant
experience with tow companies and related services.
Written Proposal Evaluation
Each of the written proposals was evaluated to ensure that each company could meet
the criteria outlined in the RFP. Each proposal was evaluated based upon the following
criteria:
1. Company History - Companies where required to have performed essentially the
same type of service for a minimum of three years
2. Corporate/Shareholder Agreements - Each company was required to report
corporate/shareholder agreements in an effort to make sure the department was
contracting with reputable and established organizations.
3. Pending Litigation - Each company was required to disclose any pending
litigation. This is important to make sure that each company was free from any
significant litigation that could affect their ability to perform tow-related services in
the future.
4. Contracts with other Agencies - Each company was required to detail similar
contracts with other law enforcement agencies to ensure that each company
selected had previous experience performing the types of tows that would be
required under this contract.
5. Three References - Each company was required to submit a minimum of three
references that supported the company's reliability and trustworthiness to
perform police-related tows.
. 6. Demonstration of Similar Experience - Each company was required to detail their
specific experience in performing police-related tows. This is important as the
most critical police initiated tows are performed at scenes of accidents and
require tow companies to be prompt, safe and reliable to quickly remove cars
from the roadways.
7. Tow Truck Operator - Each company was required to provide a list of all of their
drivers, including experience level and verification that they possess the required
licensing to perform tows.
8. Tow Trucks - Each company was required to provide a list of their compliment of
tow trucks to ensure the required numbers and sizes of trucks.
9. Equipment and Outfitting - Each company was required to list the equipment that
each of their tow trucks where outfitted with. This list had to meet the City's
minimum requirements for equipment.
10. Storage Yard - Each company was required to demonstrate their ability to
operate a tow yard that would meet the City's minimum requirements for space
and storage.
14-4
f
Item No 1 U
Meeting Date 06/13/2006
11. Tow Truck Maintenance - Each company was required to demonstrate that their
fleet of tow trucks that would be used to perform police initiated tows met the
City's minimum requirement for well-maintained and clean equipment.
Each of the submitting companies met the minimum requirements as detailed in the
RFP.
Site Evaluation
A County of San Diego Sheriffs Deputy performed the site evaluations with two
representatives from the Police Department present to ensure compliance with scoring
procedures. The deputy was asked to participate in the site evaluations because he has
extensive experience in police tow related services in San Diego County and his
background and experience and lack of connection to the Chula Vista Police
Department provided a level of expertise and impartiality the Department felt was
necessary to ensure the award process was fair and impartial. The site evaluations
consisted of a visit to each site and visually verifying that each company had the
minimum required equipment based upon pre-established criteria. Companies were
allowed to make equipment substitutions as long as the substitution adequately met the
intent of the equipment requests. Exhibit "An is the score sheet that was utilized in this
process. Each of the companies met all of the minimum qualifications as outlined on the
score sheet.
Bid Process
Each company that passed the RFP review and site visits was asked to place a sealed
bid for police initiated towing services. This bid would serve as their Tow License Fee.
The top four qualified bidders were then selected to participate in the police initiated
towing services contract. The following is the list of bids in order of amount:
$120,875
$102,000
$65,000
$60,000
$48,048
$47,774
$38,125
RFP Appeal Process
One tow company appealed the results of the RFP process in December 2005. J.C.
Towing filed their appeal citing various issues with the RFP process. The City held an
appeal hearing with representatives from J.C. Towing. Present from the City was the
appeal hearing officer, Bart Miesfeld, Sr. Assistant City Attorney, along with John

Item No I ~
Meeting Date 06/13/2006
Coggins, Purchasing Manager, and Edward Chew, Administrative Services Manager for
the Police Department. The issues brought forward by J.C. Towing are the same issues
that were delivered to your offices by J.C. Towing. The City sent a written response to
J.C. Towing indicating that the issues brought forth were without merit and the hearing
officer, Mr. Miesfeld, did not find any violations of the RFP process. The hearing officer
separately addressed each allegation and provided findings as to why the responses by
the two companies were sufficient.
Vehicle Code Section 12110 Issues
Vehicle Code section 12110 enumerates the ability of a City to charge a fee for tow
related services as long as "the fee in those cases may not exceed the amount
necessary to reimburse the public entity for its actual and reasonable costs incurred in
connection with the towing program." A review of the actual costs to provide a towing
program was conducted and it was determined that the City meets the requirements of
Vehicle Code section 12110 as the actual costs to administer the towing services
program exceeds the aggregate bid amount received by the top four companies.
In order to calculate the actual costs incurred in connection with the towing program, the
department utilized recently updated call-for-service (CFS) data gleaned from the Patrol
Staffing Model which was updated in 2005.
There were approximately 4,400 CFS in calendar year 2005 which involved a police
initiated tow. From the Patrol Staffing Model, the average CFS time for an officer is
38.81 minutes per call. Based upon this information, Officers spent approximately 2,846
hours in 2005 responding to CFS involving police initiated tows. This equates to a total
cost of $392,950 when utilizing full cost recovery1 (FCR). This does not include
additional time for officers who were called for "back-up". If "back-up" time was included
(e.g. large accidents, crime scenes, etc.), that would add an additional 1992 hours and
$274,944 to the net total cost.

Meeting Date 06/13/2006
Additional calculations were added to reflect the amount of time spent by Police
Dispatchers in calling tow companies, the amount of time spent by clerical staff and
supervisory staff in dealing with tow related issues (e.g. complaint calls, compliance
activities, etc.).
In response to concerns raised during the pre-bid conference in regards to CVC 12110,
the department issued an email response to all companies on the potential impact of the
bidding process in relation to the total cost for the department to provide the towing
program. The initial estimate provided to the tow companies in the email was as follows:
".. . conservative estimates of the cost of administering the Tow program in the
City are $430,000 per year. Even subtracting the NVIP amount (roughly
$170,000), the Tow License fee should fall substantially below the City's cost to
administer this program. The Tow License Fee is replacing the Tow Referral Fee
which traditionally partially offset the cost to administer the tow program. This tow
referral fee was set back in 1995. Since that time, the cost of salaries and
benefits for the city has substantially increased without corresponding increases
in the referral fee."
The estimates used in the original projection were based upon CFS statistics from a
1996 report to the City Council. Since 1996, the average CFS time increased 4.4
minutes per call. When the original email was sent out, the department did not have the
revised CFS averages.
PROPOSED TOW RATES
There have been no adjustments made to the Police Initiated Towing Service Rate
schedule since 1998. The department recommends adjusting the schedule in order to
compensate for increased labor, fuel and insurance costs that the tow companies have
had to absorb. The table below is based upon the average rate charged for services
under the California Highway Patrols (Southern section) Tow Rotation program:

County to show that the CHP rates are comparable to the County average:
$125.00 $140.00 $125.00 $120.00 $125.00 $90.00 $125.00 $130.00 $100.00 $120.00

The department recommends that the Police Initiated Towing Service Rate schedule be
adjusted annually in July in order for the tow companies to be able to keep up with rising
fuel, labor and insurance costs. The department further recommends that in order to
simplify the process for adjusting rates, the California Highway Patrol (CHP) average
rates for southern San Diego County be used to set the tow schedule rates. The CHP's
average tow rates are comparable to the rates noted above. The CHP's rates reflect the
charges by companies involved in the CHP tow rotation program and are adjusted
annually. The cities which are bolded above generally follow the CHP tow rotation
program rates as well.
CONTRACT PERIOD
This contract will become effective July 1, 2006 and will be valid for 5 years ending June
30,2011. At the end of the contract, it may be extended upon mutual agreement
between the City and individual tow companies, although it is the intent of the Police
Department to conduct a new RFP at that time to select tow service providers for the
City.
FISCAL IMPACT:
This contract will result in a positive impact to the general fund revenues by an
additional $108,172 per fiscal year. These additional revenues will further offset the cost
of administering the tow program. There are no additional appropriations required.
