costs to the Church; SDG&E can provide a firm cost estimate by

date; recommended public hearing be continued two weeks to obtain

Parks & Recreation)
MINUTES - 19 July 8, 1986
On June 23, 1986, the Recreation Superintendent received sealed
bids for the "Summer Food Lunch Program" for playground recreation
program at eligible sites. The agreement requires the contractor
to provide lunches daily (Monday through Friday) at eligible
after-school recreation playground sites.
The recommendation was that Council accept bids and award contract
to Girls Club of San Diego, Inc. in the amount of ~10,672 (low
bidder) in order to provide approximately 5,280 meals.
In response to Councilwoman McCandliss' question, Director of
Parks & Recreation Mollinedo stated the USDA has highly
recommended this program; ll-day elementary school food menu will
be provided; meals will be served in a designated area with no
food to be consumed off the premises; uneaten food will be stored
in a separate bin and destroyed.
RESOLUTION OFFERED BY COUNCILWOMAN MCCANDLISS, the reading of the
text was waived by unanimous consent, passed and approved
unanimously.
11. RESOLUTION 12581 APPROVING AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF
CHULA VISTA AND MCGEE MAINTENANCE FOR
SERVICE AT LAUDERBACH COMMUNITY CENTER ON
A MONTH-TO-MONTH BASIS (Director of Parks
& Recreation)
The existing custodial maintenance contract at Lauderbach
Community Center with McGee Maintenance expired on June 30, 1986.
A new agreement with McGee Maintenance was negotiated 'and will
cost $675 a month.
It was recommended Council approve a month-to-month agreement with
McGee Maintenance until the Parks & Recreation Department solicits
Request for Proposal from other custodial service companies.
In response to Councilman Campbell's concerns, Director Mollinedo
explained the proposal is to continue the existing contract with
Mr. McGee and at the same time go out to bid to determine the
market on these services. The contractor feels the 34% increase
in the contract price is justified since he does not receive as
many nightly contracting service requests from large reservation
groups.
RESOLUTION OFFERED BY COUNCILMAN MOORE, the reading of the text
was waived by unanimous consent, passed and approved (Councilman
Campbell opposed).
12. RESOLUTION 12582 ENACTING POLICY CLARIFYING THE AUTHORITY

of Planning)
MINUTES 20 - July 8, 1986
The City Council suggested that the Design Review Committee should
not feel pressured to approve designs, particularly for high
density projects, that do not fit with the project site and the
environs. The proposed policy is intended to give the committee
flexibility in that regard. Projects would still fit within the
density ranges specified on the Chula Vista General Plan; however,
in some cases they would be at less than the maximum authorized by
the zoning classifications.
In response to Councilman Campbell's question, Planning Director
Krempl noted the Design Review Committee is an advisory body to
the City Council. Appeals from this Committee are made to the
Planning Commission and then to the City Council.

Employees Association.
The Agreement provides for payment by the San Diego Unified Port
District for all City maintenance expenses in the amount of
$31,280.75 for each quarter of FY 1986-87.
Mayor Cox asked if staff contemplates further amendments to the
agreement for the Bayside Park extension and the sand beach. In
response Director Mollinedo remarked the Port District will
prepare an agreement for maintenance of the property until it is
ready to be turned over to the City in the next fiscal year.

On April 25, 1986, the Unified Disaster Council approved this
third amended agreement. The Hazardous Materials Emergency
Response Program will commence shortly after July 1, 1986. Funds
are budgeted in the Police Department to fund this program.
In response to Councilwoman McCandliss' concern, Director of

basically to establish operational and funding requirements for
this program.
Councilwoman McCandliss also questioned the appeal process of the

Minot Avenue for the formation of an assessment district to
construct Las Flores Drive and related street improvements (i.e.,
storm drain, curb, gutter, sidewalk, utilities, etc.).
In answer to councilwoman McCandliss' question, Director Lippitt
explained before staff can proceed with advertising the bids for
construction of Las Flores Drive between Second Avenue and Minot
Avenue north of "D" Street, several procedural matters need to be
accomplished for the formation of the assessment district as noted
in the three resolutions.

22. RESOLUTION 12588 REJECTING BIDS FOR "J" STREET MEDIAN
RECONSTRUCTION BETWEEN BROADWAY AND I-5
FREEWAY IN THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA
(Director of Public Works/City Engineer)
On June 11, 1986 sealed bids were received for the project which
was included in the 1983-84 and the 1984-85 budgets. The work
includes demolition, salvage, irrigation and planting, and
concrete flatwork in the existing median island between Broadway
and i-5 Freeway.
The low bid by Silver Strand Masonry and Cement Contractors was
below the Engineer's estimate of $74,500 by $12,064.30 or 16.2%;
however, Silver Strand Masonry and Cement Contractors have
reviewed their bid and are asking that their bid be withdrawn due
to an error in the bid price. It is their contention that the
price for PCC pavement should have been $39,550.40 instead of the
bid price of ~16,311. Staff believes Silver Strand Masonry and
Cement Contractors did in fact make an error in preparing their
bid and recommended all bids be rejected because the second low
bid far exceeds staff's estimate for performing the work. The
rejection of all bids would release Silver Strand Masonry and
Cement Contractors of their bid bond. Staff proposed to
immediately rebid the project again.
Mayor Cox asked if the City could renegotiate with the low bidder
rather than going through the bid process one more time.
In response, City Attorney Harron noted the City is allowed to
waive minor errors in the bid process, but a $23,000 error would
be difficult to justify.
MS (Campbell/Cox) accept staff's recommendation and reject all
bids--go out to bid again.
Mayor Cox suggested staff prepare prototypes for redesign of
median islands throughout the City in order to provide continuity.
The motion to accept staff's recommendation passed unanimously.
23. RESOLUTION 12589 REJECTING BID FOR "CONSTRUCTION OF LIBRARY
WATER FEATURE IN THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA,
CALIFORNIA" (Director Of Public Works/City
Engineer)
On June 25, 1986, the City Engineer received the sealed bids for
the work which includes excavation and grading, construction of
equipment vault, water feature, concrete paving, plumbing,
electrical work, planting shrub areas, resodding of lawn areas and
installation of irrigation system.
MINUTES 23 - July 8, 1986
Engineer's estimate of $75,000 by or 98%. Staff has
reviewed the bid and believes the contractor's price for this
project far exceeds what should be expected for the scope of work
outlined on the plans.
Therefore, it was recommended that the City immediately rebid the
project and receive bids on July 30.
Discussion ensued regarding lack of bids received for this
project; Live Water Systems, Inc., was the original low bid but
was unaware the project was out for re-bid; low bid exceeded
Engineer's estimate by 98%; Live Water Systems is still interested
in bidding on the projectd.

MINUTES - 24 - July 8, 1986
The total cost of the project was $76,268.69
Councilwoman McCandliss expressed concern that the City lost
revenue due to delays caused by the contractor. In response,
Director Lippitt stated the original scope of work was completed
in the allotted time, but upon final inspection it was determined
additional items needed attention.

ARCHITECT TO PREPARE ALTERNATIVE DESIGNS
FOR 165 MURRAY STREET (Director of
Planning)
The City Council recently directed the Planning Department to
contact several architects to obtain bids for design services in
conjunction with alternative design solutions involving the
completion of a house at 165 Murray Street.
Director of Planning Krempl reported three local San Diego
architects have expressed a willingness to provide alternative
design solutions to be completed approximately one month from the
date of the contract agreed upon between the City and the
architect chosen. The bids range from $2,500 to $3,000 with the
scope of work to include as-built plans as well as alternative
design studies.
Director Krempl recommended Council authorize selection of an
architect for this purpose and that the City Attorney be
authorized to prepare a contract to be entered into with Mr. Raso.
Councilwoman McCandliss expressed concern with Mr. Raso's latest
correspondence in which he states he would not participate in
redesign of his residence.
The following individuals spoke in opposition to this item: Lois
Myers, 162 Halsey; Helen Wadsworth, 175 Murray Street; Bess
Pocklington, 656 Glover Place; Marilyn Truesdale, 158 Murray
Street; Mrs. Bouvier, 154 Murray Street; Irene Foschow, 171 Halsey
Street; Michael Burgess, 166 Halsey Street; Dan Wall, 156 Halsey
Street; Louis Bouvier, 154 Murray Street.
MINUTES - 27 - July 8, 1986
Their concerns included: objection to use of taxpayers' funds to
assist Mr. Raso in redesigning structure; building does not meet
any City Codes and standards; there will be no privacy for
surrounding homeowners; accused City Council of favoritism if
funds are approved; requested outside investigation of the
Planning Department's actions; height of house; limitation should
be made on amount of funds expended on house; Raso ignored "stop
work order" placed on structure.
Mayor Cox reiterated Council's previous action on this item,
noting Council has two courses of action to pursue: (1) City
involvement will be limited to coming with a design acceptable to
Mr. Raso, his neighbors, and the City, or (2) require Mr. Raso to
conform to Codes.
Discussion followed concerning previous Council action limiting
roof height not to exceed 30'; existing height is illegal; lot
coverage exceeds City's maximum requirement; questioned which
ordinance pertaining to height limitation applicant should abide
by; applicant submitted 5 or 6 sets of plans which were not
approved; to be aesthetically acceptable to neighbors, design
should be prepared by a professional architect; support $3,000
expenditure for redesign on condition applicant commits to that
redesign.
MS (McCandliss/Campbell) accept report with the requirement that
the City Attorney prepare agreement to be entered into with Mr.
Raso--basically the staff recommendation.
In answer to Mayor Cox's question, City Attorney Harron stated if
an applicant pulls a building permit under false pretenses the
applicant would not have a vested right in that permit.
Joseph Raso, 165 Murray Street, Chula Vista, reiterated background
of this issue; the building inspector viewed the accessory
building on the premises; he could not afford the modifications
required for his house but would cooperate with the City in their
efforts for such a redesign.
Further discussion involved the need for an architect to review
interior of building in order to provide input for exterior
modifications; City's responsibility to the general public and not
the applicant; agreement between City and Raso should not include
parameters for architect; if applicant does not sign agreement
prepared by the City Attorney, issue will return to the Council.
Mayor Cox requested the following be included in the motion: get
assurances from Mr. Raso that he is agreeable to the contract;
have City Council review this contract before it is sent out, and
at the same time have a staff report indicating in the event
Council does not pursue the variance process as previously
approved, what would have to be done in order to make the house
legal under City Codes that were in effect when the permit was
issued.

52. COUNCIL COMMENTS
a. Councilman Moore requested an update on a request to replace
the wire fence and continue the solid fence (put in by the
City) at the Dunes Apartments.
City Manager Goss stated one of the issues in resolving this
situation was who would pay for the wall. However, this item
could become a Capital Improvements Project.
b. Councilman Moore discussed the "Adopt-An-Animal" program and
asked if staff has considered eliminating the fee incurred
prior to the adoption. In response, Director of Public Safety
Winters stated owners incur cost for adopting, however, if
dogs are not claimed, City incurs costs for their disposal in
addition to fees imposed by the State; approximately 30 dogs
are adopted monthly; 25,000-30,000 dogs put to sleep each
year; State has increased adoption fees.
MSUC (Cox/Moore) ask staff to evaluate the policy and come back in
60 days with a report on whether there has been a decrease in
adoptions as a result of fees mandated by the State, and whether
the City should continue to accept fees that are "prior to the
fact."
c. Councilman Moore suggested if funds are available, landscaping
should be provided for the "E" Street trolley station entrance.
d. Councilman Moore noted a major business has indicated a
willingness to contribute to renovation of the downtown
parking structure. He suggested staff solicit additional
interest in this type of endeavor.
e. Diamond Anniversary Committee is working on designing a City
flag.
f. Councilman Moore suggested a City-sponsored float be entered
in the Fiesta de la Luna Parade.
g. The 75th Diamond Anniversary picnic is scheduled for August 10
which will honor the "old-timers."

Farms in Bonita August 19 & 20 (in conjunction with the 75th
