RESOLUTION NO. 2007-072
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
CHULA VISTA AUTHORIZING THE APPROPRIATION OF
$70,000 FROM THE AVAILABLE BALANCE OF THE
TRUNK SEWER CAPITAL RESERVE FUNDS TO PROJECT
NO. SW249 FOR THE PREPARATION OF A JOINT
FEASIBILITY STUDY FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF A
WASTEWATER RECLAMATION PLANT
WHEREAS, concurrent with the General Plan Update, the City prepared a Wastewater
Master Plan Update, which estimated that the City required additional treatment capacity for five
to six million gallons per day (mgd) of sewage at build-out; and
WHEREAS, one of several options being pursued to address this treatment capacity
constraint is the construction of an independent City-owned wastewater reclamation facility; and
WHEREAS, to enable the City reach a decision on the feasibility of constructing that
facility, the City has partnered with Sweetwater Authority and Otay Water District to conduct a
joint feasibility study for a Wastewater Reclamation Plant that would serve the needs of the three
agencies; and
WHEREAS, the study has gained the support of the San Diego County Water Authority,
which has resulted in the award of a $25,000 grant; and
WHEREAS, taking into consideration the award from San Diego County Water Authority,
the agencies have estimated that the study could cost a total of $150,000, which would be shared
equally by the three agencies, with each agency being obligated to contribute up to $50,000; and
WHEREAS, it is currently estimated that an additional $20,000 is required to fund City
staff effort in coordinating with other agencies' staff and consultant, to complete the project.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Chula
Vista does hereby approve this resolution authorizing the appropriation of $70,000 from the
available balance of Trunk Sewer Capital Reserve Funds to Project No. SW249 for the
preparation of a Joint Feasibility Study for the construction of a Wastewater Reclamation Plant.
