BETWEEN THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA, MARION B. BORG
ENVIRONMENTAL CONSULTING AND MCMILLIN OTAY
RANCH, LLC, FOR MANAGING AND PROCESSING OF THE
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT (EIR) FOR THE
EASTERN URBAN CENTER (EUe) SECTIONAL PLANNING
AREA (SPA) PLAN, AND AUTHORIZING THE MAYOR TO
SIGN THE AGREEMENT
WHEREAS, in 2001, the Planning and Building Department retained the services of
Marion B. Borg Environmental Consulting with a two-party agreement such that the consultant
would function as an extension of staff; and
WHEREAS, there have been five subsequent amendments to Consultant's contract to
retain her services in subsequent fiscal years, for workload continuity, satisfactory professional
performance and the continued need for extension of City staff resources in environmental
planning; and
WHEREAS, the City paid for Consultant's services through the expenditure budget of
the Planning and Building Department; and
WHEREAS, the City funded said services through revenue reimbursements from
developer deposits though the revenue budget of the Planning and Building Department; and
WHEREAS, recent budget contingency reductions eliminated the remaining budget for
said services to be paid though the expenditure budget of the Planning and Building Department;
and
WHEREAS, Consultant's services are still required for continued processing of
entitlement agreements for the McMillin Otay Ranch, LLC's Eastern Urban center (EUe)
Sectional Planning Area (SPA) Plan project; and
WHEREAS, Consultant's prior experience with the City, intimate knowledge of the EUC
SPA Plan, and extensive work performed on the project make her uniquely qualified to continue
as the Environmental Project Manager for the EUC Environmental Impact Report (EIR); and
WHEREAS, City staff recommends waiving the formal consultant selection process as
impractical, as described in Section 2.56.070 of the Municipal Code of the City of Chula Vista.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Chula
Vista waives the formal consultant selection process.
