ITEM TITLE:
4/5THS VOTE: YES D NO [!]
BACKGROUND
As a Housing and Urban Development entitlement community, the City receives funds
under three of their block grant programs: Community Development Block Grant
(CDBG); the Emergency Shelter Grant (ESG); and the HOME Investment Partnership
Act (HOME) program, which includes American Dream Downpayment Initiative
(ADDI). The entitlement amounts are determined using a formula based on statistical
and demographic data. The funds are for cities to provide decent housing and a suitable
living environment, and to expand economic opportunities, principally for low- and
moderate-income persons. Each entitlement community develops their own programs
and funding priorities.
Each year the City undertakes a process to solicit requests and approve programs and
projects for these grant funds. This item addresses the 2007-08 entitlement grants as well
as the requests for funding received from various City departments and local
organizations. The purpose of this public hearing is to offer the residents, non-profit
organizations and other interested parties an opportunity to provide input on the 2007-08
proposals received, as well as provide funding recommendations (Attachment No.2).
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
At this time, no action will be taken on funding specific activities; thus, no environmental
review is necessary. Once Council selects the activities to fund, the Environmental
Review Coordinator will review the proposed activities for compliance with the National
Environmental Protection Act (NEPA) and will determine the level of environmental
review necessary for each individual project funded.

RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council conduct the public hearing to review and accept public comment
on the proposals for fiscal year 2007-08 CDBG, ESG and HOME, as shown on
Attachment No.3, accept the staff report, and direct staff to return on or about April 17,
2007 with the final funding recommendations.
BOARDS/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
Not applicable.
DISCUSSION
The City of Chula Vista receives annual entitlement grants from the U.S. Department of
Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for the Community Development Block Grant,
HOME Investment Partnership Act, and Emergency Shelter Grant programs to support
activities which benefit lower income households.
The City of Chula Vista is expecting to receive: $2,072,698 in CDBG; $944,947 in
HOME; and $88,095 in ESG entitlement funds from HUD for FY 2007-08. These
amounts represent a I % decrease for CDBG and HOME and a 6% increase in ESG from
2006-07 funding levels. The decrease is the result of recent budget cuts at the Federal
level. Refer to Attachment No.1, 2007/08 Federal Grants Budget.
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
In order to be eligible for block grant funding, a project must address at least one of the
CDBG national objectives, which are:
. Benefit primarily low and moderate income families;
. Aid in the prevention or elimination of slums or blight; and,
. Meet other community needs having a major emergency (disasters, etc.).
Accompanying this report are the 2007-08 Grant Funding Requests, which include all
Administration/Planning and Public Service applications; City Capital Improvement
projects; Community Enhancement projects; and Housing and Emergency Shelter
Programs. Summaries of the proposals are included in the Summary of Federal Grant
Requests (Attachment No.3).
The total amount of CDBG funding requested is summarized below. It should be noted
that the total amount ofrequests exceeds the amount available by $367,383.

Subtotal $1,689,915 $1,364,915 ($325,000)
TOTAL $2,574,995 $2,072,698
. Administration and Planning: The City may allocate 20% to Administration and
Planning activities. These include City staff time reimbursements, contractual fair
housing services and contractual homeless administrative services.
. Public Services Program: The city may allocate up to 15 percent for public service
programs, based on a cap of the entitlement funds. Public service activities include;
but are not limited to, employment services, crime prevention, child care, health and
drug abuse, education, energy conservation, welfare, recreation needs.
All of the funding requests received for the public service programs are CDBG-
eligible as they meet the national objective to primarily benefit low-income families.
Staff is recommending that prior-year applicants receive the same amount of funding
as they received in 2006/07.
The following four activities were new proposals. Although the activities are worthy
projects and deemed eligible per HUD standards, staff recommends funding only one
of the four activities. Due to limited funding, the remaining three are considered
alternative projects and may be funded with CDBG in the event that funds become
available.

. Capital Improvement and Community Enhancement Proiects: The Capital
Improvement program category includes five (5) requests, which total $1,689,915,
with $1,364,915. These requests include a request in the amount of $800,000,
which has been reserved for the first Section 108 Loan principal and interest
payment. The remaining $564,915 will be available for capital improvement
projects, which has been targeted to the Castle Park area. The capital
improvement program category does not have a funding cap limit, but is limited
by available funds.
Capital Improvement Projects may include acquisition, construction or installation
of public facility improvements (except for buildings for the general conduct of
government). Improvements include streets, sidewalks, curbs, gutters, parks,
playgrounds, water/sewer lines, flood/drainage improvements, parking lots, utility
lines, and aesthetic amenities on public property such as trees, sculptures, pools
and other works of art. Community Enhancement Projects work together with
public or private improvements, which result in the elimination of blight in the
community.
In addition to the Section 108 Loan Payment, two funding requests received for
capital funds are recommended. Staff is recommending funding for the installation
of ADA curb cuts and a Castle Park Code Enforcement Program. The Castle Park
Code Enforcement Program is a one-time project that would code enforcement in
conjunction with CDBG CIP funds to strategically improve a specific low income
neighborhood. The code enforcement portion would involve door to door surveys
of property, assessment of any code violations, and assistance in applying for
programs that may help to fund private property improvements.
In addition to the CDBG requests listed above, the City will receive three additional HUD
grants under Housing Programs.
HOME Investment Partnership Act Program (HOME)
. The City will receive $944,947 in HOME funds for FY 2007-08. HOME funds may
be used to provide affordable rental housing and ownership opportunities through new
construction, acquisition, rehabilitation, and tenant-based rental assistance. In the past
years the City has used these funds to support new construction and acquisition
activities related to the development of affordable housing. Examples of these
projects include: MAAC Seniors on Broadway, Brisa del Mar, as well as the
rehabilitation of Casa Nueva Vida. HOME funds will be set-aside to assist qualified
developers in the production of affordable housing. The selection of these developers
and housing projects will be accomplished through a competitive Request for
Proposals process later in the year.

American Dream Downpayment Initiative (ADDI}
. ADD! funds are administered as a part of the HOME program. Chula Vista will
receive $17,444 in ADD! entitlement funds for fiscal year 2007-08. ADD! will be
used to assist low-income first-time homebuyers in purchasing single-family homes
by providing funds for downpayment, closing costs, and rehabilitation carried out in
. conjunction with the assisted home purchase.
Emergency Shelter Grant Program (ESG)
. Chula Vista will receive ESG entitlement funds in the amount of $88,095 for fiscal
year 2007-08. The City received two proposal from local homeless service providers
for the use of these funds.
DECISION MAKER CONFLICT
Staff has reviewed the decision contemplated by this report and has determined that it the
activities under the Administration and some Public Service programs of the CDBG,
HOME and ESG programs are not site specific and consequently the 500 foot rule found
in California Code of Regulations section 18704.2(a)(1) is not applicable to this decision.
However, several Public Services programs and Capital Improvement and Community
Enhancement projects are site specific. For this reason, Staff has reviewed the property
holdings of the City Council and has found no property holdings within 500 feet of the
boundaries of the projects and programs.
FISCAL IMPACT
The City will receive a total of$3,105,740 in combined federal grant funds from the U.S.
Department of Housing and Urban Development for the CDBG, HOME and ESG grant
programs. These funds will be used to provide: public services; housing services;
complete capital improvement projects; produce affordable housing; and, aid the
homeless. There is no cost to the City's General Fund as project and staff costs are
covered by the grants.
The above amount represents a 1 % reduction in CDBG and HOME funding. As
such, Administration for the CDBG and HOME program has been reduced. This will
result in an impact to the General Fund of approximately $5,000. These changes will be
reflected in the proposed fiscal year 2008 budget.

AGENDA ITEM 25
SAN DIEGO UNIFIED PORT DISTRICT
DATE:
March 13, 2007
SUBJECT: DISCUSSION OF CITY OF CHULA\I'ISTAREQUESTS REGARDING
SOUTH SAY POWER PLANT AND'DIRECTION TO STAFF
EXECUTIVI; SV..M.MAR~:
On February 20, 2007 the Chula Vista City Council received a report from its South Bay
Power Plant Council Subcommittee requesting Council support of the subcommittee's
recommendations.
The Council took four actions:
. The City Council reaffinned its fonnal position that the South Bay Power Plant
be decommissioned by January 2010 and demolished immediately thereafter.
. The City Council requested that the Port' immediately Initiate such steps as
may be necessary to accomplish the decommission and demolition of the
South Bay Power Plant by January 2010.
. The City Council requested that the Port not enter into any contracts or
contract extensions that would violate the above (referring to the
decommissioning and demolition of the South Bay Power Plant by January
2010).
. The City Council took a position that it does not want a power plant, old or
new, on its bayfront.
The City Council asked that the Board consider the above requests and provide
direction to staff.
RECOMMENDATION:
Discuss Chuta Vista City Council requests and provide direction to staff. .
FISCAL IMPACT:. .

DISCUSSION: . ..'
As the Board is aWare,the Port acquired the~outh Bay Power Plant (S8PP) and
approximately 162 acres of land from SDG&E in 19M. The Acquisition was funded
through bonds issued by the California Maritime Infrastructure Authority. At the time of
SIO Diego Unified Port Oistrict eol1<l Meeting - Mardl 13,2007
AGENDA ITEM 25
Page 2 of2
acquisition, two of the primary agreements between the Port and Duke Energy, were a
Lease Agreement and a Cooperation Agreement The Lease payments provided the
source of payment for the Bonds.
The Lease and Cooperation Agreements were assigned to LS Power last year. At this
time, it is believed that both the Port and LS Power (and its predecessor Duke) have
complied with the terms of both agreements. Under the Cooperation Agreement, lS
Power is required to use .commercially reasonable efforts. to site and develop a
replacement generation plant (RGP) prior to the termination of the S8PP lease. The
Port is required under. the same agreement to'cooperate and assist" in the
development of theRGP. In compliance with the~ooperation Agreement, LS Power
submitted an applicetion to the California Energy Commission in June of 2006 to
construct the RGP on the LNG site just to the south of the current plant. .
The LNG site was considered an acceptable replacement location based on the actions
of the City Council of Chula VISta on November .13, 2001 supporting the concept of
re-siting and development of the RGP on the LNG .8ite on tidelands near the existing
South Bay Power Plant: and the Chura Vista City Counc~andBoard of Port
Commissioners' direction to staff at a joint meeting held June 26, 2002 to Investigate the .
feasibility of a RGP and switchyard on the southern. portion of the existing site. Both
agencies later authorized environmental review of land use designations, which include
a proposed Energy Utility Zone on the LNG site.
The Port has not yet entered into agreements with LS Power f6r the LNG site. An
option and lease agreement have been negotiated and are ready for consideration by
the Board following completion of CECA processing. The recent actions by the City of
ChuJa Vista are not consistent with the City's prior actions. The Board needs to
consider the requests in light of the contractual obligations to LS Power.
Port Attorney's Comments: .
District staff has worked cooperatively with LS Power pursuant to the Cooperation
Agreement. The Board of Port CommissionerS may exercise dIscretion to direct staff as
deemed appropriate. in .this matter. Direction' of the Board could, however, implicate
various proviSions of the Cooperation Agreement .. ...

SDG&E to issue RFO to meet reliability needs
San Diego Gas & Electric intends to seek offers in 30 to 60 days
for 1,000 MW to meet reliability needs starting in 2010. It will not
specify what types of supply products it is looking for, but instead
will evaluate what generators bid in against what it needs, accord-
ing to Stephanie Donovan, a company spokeswoman.
SDG&E made the statement to clarify remarks attributed to
an SDG&E senior vice president at a San Diego meeting saying
the utility would not buy power from the proposed South Bay
replacement project in Chula Vista should it win approval from
the California Energy Commission and be built. Donovan said
those remarks were inaccurate.
SDG&E will be able to meet baseload needs with its SSO-MW

Arkansas PSG stays affiliate transaction rules
The Arkansas Public Service Commission has temporarily
stayed its affiliate transaction rules after a group of electric, natu-
ral gas and water utilities said the two-month-old regulations
could force them out of business.
The PSC said February 16 that certain issues raised by the
group merit further consideration and it will rehear those issues.
The joint petitioners said the final rules adopted December
19 contain serious flaws, including unclear and confusing provi-
sions. The burdens of complying with the rules far outweigh the
benefits to the public interest, the companies said.
The new rules give the commission regulatory standards by
which affiliate transactions are judged for the purpose of

New entrants need to understand FERG: Spitzer
"Vhite it may take a while for some of the financial players in
the energy market "to adapt to the environment where there is reg-
ulatory oversight," they need to understand the government has a
role in ensuring fair and efficient operation of the market, Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission member Marc Spitzer said Tuesday.
Speaking to a group of state utility regulators, he suggested
Congress' decision to give FERC authority to sharply penalize
bad behavior was a welcome development for energy markets.
During the Western energy crisis, when FERC lacked the
ability to levy penalties against even those entities "found cul-
pable of manipulation," market participants that played by the
rules felt they "were at a competitive disadvantage," Spitzer
said. ".rhere is a large segment of the regulated industry that

FERC launches oversight workshops
The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission will immediately
begin holding week-long workshops for state and federal agency
staff to help them understand better how the commission con~
ducts investigations and analyzes market data, Susan COUlt,
director of FERC's Office of Enforcement, said Monday at the
winter meeting of the National Association of Regulatory Utility
Commissioners in Washington.
FERC's Energy Market Oversight Division v.,rill conduct the
Research in Market Oversight Program for interested state and
federal employees.
COUlt said other federal agencies wanted to know how FERC
analyzed market data and state agency employees would inquire
with market oversight staff at the commission for help. They
wanted to know "how we analyze that data, what we do with
it," Court said.
Seminar participants will spend much of their time with
enforcement staff in PERC's Market Monitoring Center.
Court said FERC wants to work with the states to help them
understand "how electric markets work," and added that these
workshops are part of FERe's effort to be more transparent and
increase transparency in the market.
States must pay for transportation, food and lodging and the
commission will conduct the week-long program for free.
SDG&E to issue RFO... from page 1
Palomar Energy plant in Escondida, which began operating com-
mercially in April 2006, and Calpine's 590-lvfW Otay Mesa
Energy Center, now scheduled to come online in May 2009.
I'Towever, according to Donovan, to meet reliability needs espe-
cially during peak summer months, the utility will need addi-
tional generation in addition to its Sunrise Powerlink transmis-
sion line, now under review at the California Public Utilities
Commission.
The Sunrise Power link line is being designed to import into
San Diego 1,000 MW of renewable resources from the Imperial
Valley/Salton Sea area in southeastern California starting in
2010. The environmental impact report is expected to be com-
pleted this summer and the pue will make a final decision on
the project early in 2008.
The issue of SDG&E's future generation needs came up in a
joint meeting on January 18 with the City of Chula Vista, the
San Diego Unified Port District and the California Energy
Commission to discuss the proposed South Bay replacement
project being developed by LS Power. The project is under review
for certification at the CEC.
The South Bay replacement project is intended to replace the
old South Bay power plant the San Diego Unified Port District
purchased from SDG&E in 1998. LS Power leases the plant from
the port district and has agreed to demolish it once the replace-
ment plant is built. LS Power holds a reliability-must-run con-
tract \\>ith the California Independent System Operator for the
current South Bay power plant generation.
A February 13 CEC project status report quoted Jim Avery. a
senior vice president at SDG&E, saying at the January 18 meet-
ing that SDG&E would not purchase the power from the new
South Bay plant and that any power generated by thi::. pl;1I11
would not be used in San Diego County Donoval1 Cidld tllj~ vVd_~

ratemaking, the PSC said when adopting the rules.
The commission adopted the rules to close regulatory gar;~
created by the repeal of the Public Utility Holding Cnmpanv Act,
which protected utility ratepayers from abusive practices by utili-
ty companies and to guard against unfair competition, the com-
mission said.
The new rules prevent cross subsidiZation from regulated
public utility companies to non~regulated affiliates that pro-
vide non-utility services to the regulated utility, the PSC said.
They also prevent affiliates or parent companies from placing
the assets of a regulated public utility at risk, and prevent mar-
ket manipulation or market power by utilities, the PSC said.
If the new rules are not modified, the regulated utilities
will be forced to either obtain exemptions so they can contin-
ue to carryon their normal, day-ta-day activities or "terminate
those activities, /I the utility group said.
Specifically, the PSC needs to clarify the applicability of the
rules to multi-jurisdictional utilities and their reporting and
auditing requirements. Pricing requirements also need to be
modified, the companies said.
Southwestern Electric Power Co. said the rules could be
interpreted to prevent its continued participation in tl1e utility
system money pool within American Electric Power, its parent
company. That would contradict the Federal EnerhTJ' Regulatory
Commission's blanket authorization allowing holding compa-
nies and their subsidiaries to take part in intra-system cash
management programs, Swepco said.
Other language in the rules could be interpreted as pro-
hibiting a multi-state electric utility from investing in generat-
ing facilities that would provide electric service both inside
and outside Arkansas, Swepco said.
The group of utilities also asked that the various utilities
affected by the rules be ordered to participate in a collabora-
tive process to produce new rules in six to 12 months.
Entergy Arkansas noted in a separate request for rehearing that
the PSC opted not to adopt rules that had been developed earlier
in a collaborative effort led by the PSC staff. Instead it proposed a
new and comprehensive set of rules that are so onerous "as to be a
practical impossibility to implement," the company said.
Arkansas Attorney General Dustin McDaniel said the rules

Addressing the Big Picture:
Meeting the Region's Growing Energy Needs
In the coming years, the San Diego region will require additional power resources to meet a
projected increase in electricity demand. Driving this demand is the region's growth - SDG&E adds
20,000 new customers to its power grid every year - and increased energy usage resulting from the
proliferation of personal computers and other electronic devices.
As early as 2010, San Diegans could be consuming more power than can be imported or generated
locally. Clearly, action must be taken today to ensure that we have the energy we need in the
future.
Some in San Diego have primarily focused on building new power plants to increase electric supply.
But, local power plants alone are not the solution to the region's growing energy needs. There is a
bigger picture that must be considered. That bigger picture relies on a balanced portfolio that
ensures adequate energy supplies through a combination of resources and actions, including:
. Energy conservation programs;
. Reduction of energy demand during peak usage periods;
. Renewable energy resources;
. New transmission lines; and,
. Local power plants.
SDG&E is the entity responsible for the region's energy resource planning. As part of this
responsibility, we have developed a Long-Term Resource Plan, which includes all of the above
elements. Our plan is a lO-year blueprint to ensure safe and reliable power for the growing San
Diego region.
We recognize that increasing local power generation is an important part of the bigger picture,
which is why we recently put into service a new efficient, state-of-the-art power plant in Escondida
and signed a long-term contract to receive the power output from another new power plant being
developed In the South Bay at Otay Mesa.
Beyond what IS already constructed and planned in the near-term, additional power plants will be
needed in San Diego in the next decade. To ensure that we receive competitive prices for the
resources we secure, SDG&E routinely solicits bids from power plant developers to construct new
facilities. In fact SDG&E has conducted these solicitations every year since 2003.
And, last Friday, we launched another competitive bid process for new electricity resources that will
be needed in the 2010-2012 timeframe. Through the bidding process, also known as a "request for
offers" or RFO, SDG&E is seeking the following resources:
. Energy saved through new "demand response" contracts with local businesses, which agree
to reduce their electricity use during times of critical demand, in exchange for a lower rate
or other incentive;
. At least 200 megawatts (one megawatt provides enough energy to power 650 homes) of
electricity from new local "peaker" plants. These are small, efficient power plants that are
used only during peak periods and can be activated or shut down quickly to meet sudden
surges in electricity demand; and,
. About 500 megawatts of generation from a power plant in or outside SDG&E's service
territory that could run around the clock.
All bids will be assessed by SDG&E in an open, regulated process to determine which resources best
meet customer needs at the lowest cost. All bids also are evaluated by SDG&E's Procurement
Review Group! comprised of California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) staff! consumer advocates
and other non-market participants. Further, an independent evaluator will monitor the process.
Once the evaluation process is completed, the CPUC still must review and approve all proposed
contracts.
SDG&E also will evaluate in this RFO the option to acquire the 480-megawatt EI Dorado Energy
power plant in Boulder City, Nevada, which is owned by a Sempra Energy affiliate company. Under
the terms of an October 2006 settiement agreement between Sempra Energy and California state
agencies, SDG&E has the option to purchase the plant for book value in 2011. The CPUC has
estimated that purchasing the 6-year-old natural gas-fired plant at book value would save SDG&E
customers more than $100 million compared to building or acquiring a brand-new plant.
As we learned from California's energy crisis earlier this decade! a balance of infrastructure!
resources and conservation is needed to meet our region's energy needs. SDG&E's long-term plan
addresses this big picture! providing a balance that ensures energy reliability for San Diegans into
the future.

Honorable Cheryl Cox
City of Chula Vista
276 Fourth Avenue
Chula Vista, CA 91910
Dear Mayor Cox:
I want to thank you again for hosting a meeting to discuss the South Bay Power Plant
(SBPP) that included representatives from the Port of San Diego, LS Power and
SDG&E.
Earlier today SDG&E issued a competitive Request for Offers (RFO) for resources that
will be needed starting in 2010. This RFO and related material can be located at
http://www.sdoe.com/2010-2012capacitvrfo/. To ensure that we receive competitive
prices for the resources we secure, we routinely soiicit bids from power plant developers
to construct new facilities. In fact, SDG&E has conducted these solicitations every year
since 2003.
SDG&E welcomes bids from all local and non-local power providers to supply:
a) new demand response programs by 2010,
b) at least 200 megawatts of electricity from peaker plants within SDG&E's service
territory as early as 2010, and
c) approximately 500 megawatts of generation by late 2011 from any source.
As we discussed, SDG&E's December 2006 Long Term Procurement Plan makes clear
that one project that could meet that need is the Sempra-owned EI Dorado plant, which
SDG&E was granted the option to purchase under the terms of a settlement agreement
between Sempra Energy, the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC), and the
California Attorney General in October 2006.
SDG&E will assess all bids according to the CPUC's adopted regulatory framework in
order to determine which resources best meet customer needs at the lowest cost. All
bids also are evaluated by SDG&E's Procurement Review Group, made up of CPUC
staff, consumer advocates and other non-market participants. Further, an independent
evaluator will monitor the process.

These entities are involved at all stages of the RFO process, including the preparation
of the RFO, during bid evaluation, and as SDG&E determines the final short list of
bidders. Once the evaluation process is completed, the CPUC still must approve all
proposed contracts.
Lastly, I want to assure you that SDG&E is committed to the timely removal of the
existing 138/69 kV switchyard consistent with the terms of the 2004 Memorandum of
Understanding with the City. SDG&E stands by its commitment to the City of Chula
Vista to remove the existing switch yard and construct a new switchyard at a location
provided by the City that meets system needs. We look forward to working with you in
that regard.
Thank you again for allowing us to participate.
Sincerely,
~</T
