AGENCY RESOLUTION / &,Z"7 AUTHORIZING THE DISSOLUTION OF THE OTAY VALLEY ROAD PROJECT AREA COMMITTEE (PAL) AND ESTABLISHING THE PLANNING COMMISSION AS THE RECOMMENDING BODY TO THE CITY COUNCIL AND REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY FOR PROJECTS LOCATED WITHIN THE OTAY VALLEY ROAD REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT AREA SUBMITTED BY: COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DIRE~~,~"~ ~ ..~ REVIEWED BY: EXECUTIVE DIRECT0,~,¥~~5 VOTE: YES__ NO X At the May 25, 1999 Council meeting, Council reviewed staff recommendations regarding a variety of Boards and Commissions to determine if any should be consolidated or eliminated as part of the ongoing effort to streamline City operations and increase staff efficiency. Council then took action with respect to the Otay Valley Road Project Area Committee, requesting that staff return with a resolution dissolving the Project Area Committee. This resolution officially disbands the Project Area Committee, originally established by the Redevelopment Agency in 1984, and establishes the Planning Commission as the recommending body for projects located within the Otay Valley Road Redevelopment Project Area. That the Council and Agency Board pass a Resolution to dissolve the Otay Valley Road Project Area Committee and establish the Planning Commission as the recommending body for projects within the Otay Valley Road Redevelopment Project Area. The Otay Valley Road Project Area Committee concurred with the staff recommendation at their Apdl 1999 meeting (see attached minutes). They also recommended periodic forums to obtain community input into the redevelopment process. With expiration of the terms of the original PAC members and resolution of many of the early development concerns, it has been increasingly more difficult to fill all vacancies and maintain quorums. Since January 1998, there have been 26 regularly scheduled meetings of which 15 have been cancelled (for lack of business) and six others did not have a quorum. Additionally, conflict of interest issues have restricted members who own property or businesses in the project area from discussing or voting on projects which may impact them financially. With the completion of Otay Valley Road, initiation of the Auto Park and completion of over 600,000 square feet of new industrial space, the project area is almost all built out. Although the committee continues to review ,,'1 PAGE ~:~ ITEM ~ MEETING DATE O6/og/gg have been reduced from twice a month to once a month (or less), and are generally limited to discussing the current status of several ongoing projects and exchange of information. This function can be well served by periodic forums hosted by City staff to review project progress, plans and exchange of information with property and business owners from the area as well as nearby residents. And the official recommending function for projects located within the project area should be established with the Planning Commission. By passing the Resolution dissolving the Project Area Committee, the following cost savings may be achieved: 1) Reduction of approximately 3 - 4 senior-level staff hours and 1 secretarial staff hours per month; and 2) Reduction of approximately $100 annually on supplies, postage, etc. per month.

(ST964)" project. The general scope of the project involves the reconstr, uction of the existing pavement and the installation of storm drain facilities along "E" Street from Interstate -5 Freeway to Broadway. RECOMMENDATION: That Council: 1. Transfer appropriations of $578,000 of Transportation Sales Tax Funds from the Main Street Improvement Project (ST-961) to Project ST964 (E. Street Reconstruction) 2. Accept bids and awarding contract for the "E Street Reconstruction, From Interstate - 5 to Broadway, in the City of Chula Vista, CA. (ST964)" project to Scheidel Contracting & Engineering, La Mesa, CA in the amount of $1,379,820.00. 3. Appropriate $30,000 from the Otay Valley Road project fund to the Bayfront project fund as a partial loan repayment and transferring funds to the project ST964 Account for the financing of staff costs and making the necessary findings in connection therewith. BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: Not applicable. Page 2, Item ~ Meeting Date 6/8/99 DISCUSSION: The Pro_iect The existing pavement on "E" Street is completely deteriorated in a lot of areas. In addition, the street has developed a high crown due to many years of overlaying the existing pavement in order to extend its service life. As a result of this, many cars coming in and out of the businesses located within this reach of "E" Street, scrape the pavement. The project as currently designed will lower the crown of the street and provide for smooth entrances and exits from the businesses by motorists using this street. This project also involves the construction of drainage facilities along "E" Street. A few years ago, two drainage inlet-outlet underground structures were installed at the intersection of Broadway and "E" Street. These structures were constructed as a temporary measure (due to insufficient funding) to convey surface runoff from the east side of the intersection to the west side. However, the locations of these inlets, for a long time, made it impossible to install pedestrian ramps at this intersection. Over the years this proved to be quite a major impediment to the disabled residents of Chula Vista, who take considerable risks when they cross that intersection from one direction to the other. The construction of this project provides for the relocation of these existing inlets and the construction of pedestrian ramps at the four corners of this intersection. The Bid Process Since "E" Street is the first major entryway into the City of Chula Vista, Council approved funds in the FY1997/98 budget to reconstruct the street and install all these necessary drainage facilities. The project was advertised for a period of four weeks and bids were received as follows: CONTRACTORS BID AMOUNT 1 Scheidel Contracting & Engineering, La Mesa, CA $1,379,820.00 2 Pioneer Concrete (dba Asphalt Inc), E1 Cajon, CA $1,411,962.00 3 Nicholas Grant, Corp., San Diego, CA $1,908,908.00 The low bid for this project by Scheidel Contracting & Engineering, La Mesa, CA, is above the Engineer's estimate of $1,105,290.00 by $274,530.00 or 25 %. The Engineer's estimate was based on bids received for similar projects by the City and by other Agencies. The bids received for this project were significantly higher than the engineer's estimate for a number of reasons. Staff believes that a combination of factors such as increased oil prices driving up asphalt prices, heavy Page 3, Item ,~ Meeting Date 6/8/99 construction activity, and complicated nature of job in a commercial district have contributed to the higher price. The primary reason is that the work involved in this project involves the total reconstruction of the pavement section, and since asphalt is a derivative of petroleum, the price paid for this portion of the work was significantly more than its usual cost because of the recent increase in the cost of gasoline. Another factor was the heightened increase in construction activity in this region. The construction standards provide that the prime contractor be able to complete at least 50% of the work with his/her own forces. Since this is a multi-million dollar project, the number of contractors who could get bonding for a project of this size was limited. A lot of the big contractors are currently engaged working on some of the big subdivisions, so were unable to get additional bonding or personnel to do this project, this accounts for the ntLmber of bids received. It is staff's opinion that re-bidding the project would probably not result in a lower bid and considering the average of the bids received, could even result in a higher bid. Also, this project is part of the State/Local Transportation Partnership Program (SLTPP), and as such has to be awarded by June 30, 1999 otherwise the City would loose about 16.59% of matching funds. After evaluating all these factors, Staff concluded that there would not be sufficient time to re-advertise the project. The project specifications required that all contractors have the relevant experience in doing a similar project. We have contacted the references provided by Scheidel Contracting & Engineering and determined that they have the relevant experience necessary to complete this project as defined in the specification. In addition, we have verified their license and determined that it is current and in good standing. We therefore recommend that the contract for the "E Street Reconstruction, From Interstate - 5 to Broadway, in the City of Chula Vista, CA. (ST964)" project be awarded to Scheidel Contracting & Engineering, La Mesa. Sweetwater Authority Water Main Upgrade The original budget for the project provided for the total reconstruction of the street pavement section utilizing asphalt concrete and crushed aggregate base and did not provide for any relocation of the existing water facilities since the pavement section assumed for budget purposes seemed to provide adequate clearance. However, during the course of the design of the project, design staff retained a consulting firm to do sub-surface investigation and soil analysis. Their investigation revealed that the poor condition of the underlying soil necessitated that the street pavement section be significantly thicker than was planned. To resolve this design problem, staff opted to utilize cement treated base as base material instead of the usual crushed aggregate material. Since this material (cement treated base) is much more expensive than crushed aggregate base, that increased the cost of the project Page 4, Item ~.~ Meeting Date 6/8/99 The increase in the pavement section also resulted in the need to relocate water facilities (water lines) located in the street. Based on the joint agreement between the City and Sweetwater Authority, the City was now liable for 50% of the cost of the water facilities relocation in the amount of $152,150.00. This was also an unanticipated expenditure. The relocation of the water main led Sweetwater Authority to propose to the Redevelopment Agency that the water main be upgraded from 12" to 16". The benefits of the upgrade in the water capacity were evaluated. The Redevelopment Agency and the Fire Department agreed that increasing the capacity of the line would be an appropriate proactive measure. This will provide greater capacity to serve the anticipated increase in water needs resulting from several proposed bayfront redevelopment projects. The cost of this upgrade is $30,000. The Redevelopment Agency will be contributing $30,000 to this project, which will be allocated to Engineering staff reimbursement. The total cost for the relocation/upgrade for the water facilities totals $182,150.00 Pro_iect Funding The scope of the Main Street Improvement project (currently under construction) was revised and the work to be done was significantly reduced. This resulted in the project having a surplus of about $1,000,000 of Transportation Sales Tax funds in the project account. These funds are scheduled to be returned to the TRANSNET Account at the end of construction and upon filing of the Notice of Completion. Since both projects, "E" Street and Main Street, are both funded through TRANSNET, and since both involve the reconstruction of major entry ways into the City of Chula Vista, Staff recommends that Council approve the "resolution appropriating $578,000 of Transportation Sales Tax Funds from the Main Street Improvement Project (ST-961) and transferring the funds to the Project ST964 Account". Prevailing Wage Statement This project is primarily funded through Transportation Sales Tax (TRANSNET) Funds. Based on the current project funding guidelines, no prevailing wage requirements were necessary as part of the bid documents. Environmental Status The City's Environmental Coordinator has reviewed the work involved in this project and determined that the project is exempt under Section 15301, Class l(c) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Page 5, Item ..~ Meeting Date 6/8/99 Use of Redevelopment Agency Funds The Redevelopment Agency has determined that the installation and increased capacity of the waterline in E Street from Broadway 1o Interstate 5 will benefit both the Bayfront Redevelopment Area and Town Center II Redevelopment Area. The increased water capacity will serve and facilitate redevelopment of underutilized and physically deteriorated property on the Bayfront as well as along E Street. The upgrade will assist in the elimination of blighting conditions and is consistent with implementation plans adopted for both the Bayfront and Town Center II Redevelopment Areas. Other monies are committed to other necessary projects and the City's agreement to share costs with Sweetwater does not cover the cost of the upgrade which is $30,000. The Redevelopment Agency will contribute $30,000 to the project for Engineering staff reimbursement. FISCAL IMPACT: Financial Statement FUNDS REQUIRED FOR CONSTRUCTION A.

The shop will feature vintage and antique home furnishings and accessories. Because the applicant's inventory will include up to 60% vintage goods (or second hand merchandise), and the current Downtown land use policy, as a general rule, does not allow secondhand merchandise stores, a land use permit has been required to analyze the request. The Town Centre Project Area Committee held a public headng and considered the project on Apdl 28. The proposal is a Class 1 exemption from environmental review under Section 15301 of the California Environmental Quality Act. That the Redevelopment Agency: 1. Hold a public hearing and take public testimony; and, 2. Adopt a resolution approving a Land Use Permit to allow the establishment of a combination antique/vintage goods and gift shop at 329 Third Avenue in accordance with conditions of approval set forth in the said resolution. On April 28, 1999, the Town Centre Project Area Committee held a public hearing to consider a recommendation to the Redevelopment Agency for a land use permit to allow the establishment of a business with a mix of antiques and vintage goods at 329 Third Avenue. There were no public comments. PAGE 2. iTEM "~ MEETING DATE 06/08/99 The Committee voted 5-0 to recommend the Redevelopment Agency approve the applicant's land use permit with the following conditions: 1. The land use permit be approved for a one year pedod. The land use be reviewed at the end of the one year period; and, if no problems have occurred, the land use permit may be extended. 2. The merchandise mix is recommended to be 40 % antiques and 60 % vintage goods. The applicant proposes to operate a home fumishings and accessory shop in a currently vacant 900 sq. ft. store located at 329 Third Avenue at the southeast corner of Third Avenue and Center Street. (See location map - Attachment 1 .) Merchandise will consist of antiques and vintage goods (from the 1930's through the 1960's). Some of the vintage fumiture will be refurbished, some will be left in distressed condition which is a popular trend in current home decorating. Accessory memhandise and one of a kind items such as pictures, lamps, pillows, toys and keepsake items also will be stocked. (Photographs of the typical memhandise are include as Attachment 2.) The current land use policy for the Downtown redevelopment area does not allow, as a general rule, "secondhand merchandise stores". (The Land Use Policy is attached as Attachment 3.) The applicant's plan does not propose to establish a secondhand store in the sense of selling "used merchandise" of all types at discount rates such as a thdft store but proposes to create a home decorating specialty retail shop with high quality goods including antiques and vintage goods. Antiques(l) which are allowed in Downtown are a type of "secondhand merchandise." Antiques can be highly valued and can include highly coveted, rare items that are extremely expensive or moderately pdced items which are more widely available but still prized. Vintage goods are not quite old enough to be categorized as an antique and not new enough to be considered "new fumishings", nor are vintage goods "cast aways"; but, vintage goods are considered desirable items by current market standards and are sold in specialty retail shops not unlike antiques. The applicant's proposal as described in her letter to the Town Centre Project Area Committee (Attachment 4) appears to be a legitimate land use within the Downtown redevelopment area. Staff is recommending that the applicant be provided the opportunity to establish the proposed combined use (antiques and vintage goods) for at least one year with a minimum of 40% antique inventory. At the end of the one year period, the special land use permit should be reviewed to ensure that goods being sold are indeed high quality goods and not typical "secondhand" or used merchandise. The following conditions of approval are recommended to ensure compliance: 1. The land use permit is subject to review by the Agency after one year of operation. The use shall be reviewed to ensure that the goods being sold are of high quality and not typical "secondhand" or used merchandise as disallowed by the Town Centre Project Area Committee Land Use Policy. Pedodic review shall be conducted thereafter at the Agency's discretion and, if it is determined by the Agency that the goods being sold are of lower quality "secondhand" or used merchandise as disallowed by the said Policy, the Land Use Permit shall be subject to revocation. 2. The merchandise mix must include a minimum of 40% antiques as defined in Section 19008.2 of the Business and Professional Code. In accordance with the Business and Professional Code, an antique is described as, "furniture having special value because of its age, especially a work of art or handicraft that is over 100 years old." PAGE 3, ITEM MEETING DATE 08/08/99 Findings 1. The proposed use, at the particular location, is necessary or desirable to provide a service or facility which will contribute to the general well being of the neighborhood or the community. The Downtown area redevelopment area is envisioned as the "Business, Entertainment and Social Center-point of the Community" in the adopted Downtown Vision Statement. The propose use, with recommended conditions of approval, will add a desirable specialty retail shop to the current commemial land use mix within the Downtown. 2. The proposed use, under the circumstances of the particular case, will not be detrimental to the health, safety or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity, or injurious to property or improvements in the vicinity. The applicant proposes a specialty retail store which will provide high quality memhandise. Establishment of the proposed shop will add to the diversity of goods sold in the Downtown and is anticipated to attract new consumers to the redevelopment area and contribute toward the good health of the business environment. 3. The proposed use will comply with the regulations and conditions specified in the Municipal Code for such use. The goal of the Town Centre Redevelopment Plan is to revitalize the Town Centre area as the commercial-civic focus of the City.

[] The strengthening of the mercantile posture of the Town Centre and the improvement of the retail trade. 4. The granting of this conditional use will not adversely affect the General Plan of the City or the adopted plan of any governmental agency. The proposed specialty retail use is in compliance with the Town Centre Redevelopment Plan's commercial land use designation for the project site, Recommended conditions of approval will mitigate any potential impact that would be anticipated by the establishment of a "secondhand merchandise store". Approval of the proposed land use permit will allow the operation of approximately 900 sq. tt, of specialty retail space within the Downtown area.

Map House ATTACHMENT 4 April 1, 1999 Dear Committee: Attached, please find my Special Land Use Permit Application. This application is for a retail store to be located in the Chula Vista Town Center (Subarea 1) at 329 3rd Ave. This store will feature vintage and antique home furnishings and accessories. Not all items will be antique (75 years old or older). The vintage items wilJ be furniture and accessories that are old, but not quite that old. The vintage items may be anything 30,40, 50 or 60 years old. The ratio will be approximately 40% antique and 60% vintage. Vintage and distressed items are very popular in home decorating right now. You can look in any decorating magazine and see vintage on almost every page. There are some fine examples of vintage home furnishings stores in Coronado. One on Orange Ave and another on 10th street. These stores are filled with adorable, old and distressed items that would compliment almost any style of home. My store will be very similar to these stores. I think adding a trendy shop like this to downtown Chula Vista will really add to the charm of our quaint city. I hope others will be along soon. Thank you for your consideration. Executive Summa Rhubarb Road is a concept for a retail store featuring antique and vintage home furnishings and accessories. The store will sell such items as: Vintage Furniture Vintage Accessories Antique Furniture Antique Accessories Antique Reproductions The percentage of vintage and antique furnishings will be approximately 60/40. Vintage in this context refers to anything old fashioned. The vintage items featured will be furniture and accessories from the 30's, 40's, 50's & 60's. Accessories refers to pictures, lamps, rugs, quilts, doilies, pillows, trunks, books, nic- nacs, kitchen items, keepsake boxes, old signs, clocks, stools, benches, paintings, old toys, garden items, old radios, mirrors, shelves, etc... The shop will be located at 329 Third Avenue, Chula Vista, CA 91910, and will open in the spring of 1999. The square footage of this location is approximately 900 sq ft.
