WORKSHOP
1. PRESENTATION AND SUB COMMITTEE REPORT REGARDING THE SOUTH
BAY POWER PLANT DECOMMISSIONING AND DISMANTLING
The purpose of the workshop was to provide the Council and public with additional
information regarding the regulatory process associated with decommissioning and
dismantling the existing South Bay power plant; as well as provide an opportunity to hear
directly from stakeholders who did not present at the January 18, 2007 workshop
regarding their recommendations and participation in the process to address resource
adequacy and remove the "reliability must run" (RMR) status from the existing plant.
The meeting also provided the Council subcommittee with an opportunity to provide a
progress report on its activities since the committee was established at the January 18,
2007 workshop.
Mayor Cox introduced Port Commissioner Mike Najera; Randa Coniglio, Real Estate Manager,
Port of San Diego; and Conservation and Environmental Services Director Michael Meacham.
At 4:06 p.m., she announced that she would leave the dais briefly to meet with the Charter
Review Commission.
Director Meacham presented a report on the process and strategy for decommissioning and
dismantling the existing South Bay power plant. Ms. Coniglio reported that as a result of actions
taken by the Council at a joint meeting with the Port on February 20, 2007, the Board of Port
Commissioners directed Port staff to continue to fulfill the Port District's obligations under
current agreements, to cooperate and assist LS Power in the development of a replacement
generation plant off Port tidelands, and to bring back a resolution to that effect at the next Port
meeting on April 10, 2007.
;q;
DRAFT
WORKSHOP (Continued)
Mayor Cox returned to the dais at 4:10 p.m.
Laura Hunter, representing the Environmental Health Coalition, introduced Paul Fenn, Executive
Director, and Robert Freehling, Research Director, representing Local Power, who presented
green energy options for the South Bay power plant. Ms. Hunter then presented proposed
recommendations on specific alternatives to remove the power plant. She also suggested that the
City join with other stakeholders to create a working group to decide the South Bay's energy
future.
Mike Niggli, Chief Operating Officer, Sempra Energy Utilities, gave a presentation on issues
associated with long-term energy planning.
Deputy Mayor Rindone referenced the report by Mr. Niggli, noting that the removal of the
138kV bayfront lines and structures was dependent on the decommissioning of the South Bay
power plant, per the California Independent System Operator (CAISO). He stated that it was his
understanding that, per negotiations between the City and SDG&E, this was not a condition for
removing the lines and structures. Mr. Niggli responded that CAISO would feel uncomfortable
taking the structures down and changing the reliability to the area until a resolution regarding the
power plant facility was reached. Deputy Mayor Rindone asked Mr. Niggli to provide the
Council with further information regarding the growth rate of electric load use over the past 10
years.
Scott Alevy, representing the San Diego Regional Chamber of Commerce, spoke of the need for
sustainable energy and stated that redevelopment strategies for the bayfront would be virtually
impossible to implement unless CAISO blessed the removal of the existing power plant. On
behalf of the Chamber, he urged the Council to support the Sunrise power link.
Lisa Cohen, representing the Chula Vista Chamber of Commerce, spoke in support of the
Sunrise power link as a solution to the problem of removing the existing, aging power plant from
the bayfront.
Patricia Aguilar, representing Crossroads II, stated that the South Bay power plant had been an
environmental and visual blight on the City for too long, and that it was time to remove the plant
from the bayfront and use the land for purposes that people could enjoy.
Denis Trafecanty, a resident of Santa Isabel, spoke about SDG&E's interest in solar, wind, and
renewables, although she said it has yet to establish geothermal at the Southwest power link that
it talked about 22 years ago. He further stated that what currently exists on the Southwest power
link in Mexicali is polluting, dirty power. He commented that SDG&E does not claim to have
solar on any of its own facilities and he, therefore, felt unsure about its statement about
renewables. Mr. Trafecanty also questioned whether the Sunrise power link would obtain
approval in the future, and he spoke of the need to resolve energy needs locally.

WORKSHOP (Continued)
Mayor Cox updated the Council regarding several subcommittee meetings she and
Councilmember Castaneda attended regarding the power plant. She provided details from their
meeting with the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) regarding the need for a long-
term vision for the San Diego region, including base load and peaker power, and the CPUC's
commitment to competitive generation in California. Additionally, she reported that CPUC staff
stated that a power plant with adequate generation to ensure CAISO and CPUC agreement for
decommissioning does not need to be on the bayfront; however, a new site would take up to two
years to plan, followed by construction.
Councilmember Castaneda also reported on the power plant subcommittee meetings with CAlSO
and the CPUC, stating that CAlSO confirmed that on or about February 2010, an operational
base load power plant of approximately 550 - 600 megawatts located in the San Diego service
area would be adequate to remove RMR from the South Bay power plant. Additionally, when
the Otay Mesa generating plant comes online, approximately 500 megawatts of RMR contract
power could be removed from the service area, which includes the South Bay power plant. He
then spoke of the need to work diligently with all entities to ensure the removal of RMR as soon
as possible.
Mayor Cox stated that the subcommittee would look for continued direction from all entities
involved in the process in both the private and public sectors. She thanked the speakers present
at the meeting.
Councilmember McCann stated that the number one priority continued to be the removal of
RMR status on South Bay power plant, followed by looking at renewable energy sources.
No action was taken by Council.
ADJOURNMENT
At 6:24 p.m., Mayor Cox adjourned the meeting to the regular meeting of March 27, 2007 at

The City has been awarded a grant from the California Integrated Waste Management
Board State Tire Derived Product Grants Program to help meet project costs associated
with the Citywide rubberized mulch project. The project will provide material for use in
landscaping and weed abatement around City-owned facilities, and provide an
environmentally friendly alternative to the wood-based products currently in use. (public
Works Operations Director)
Staff recommendation: Council adopt the resolution.
David Krogh, Chula Vista resident, expressed concern with potential irrevocable damage from
mixing rubber tire products into the landscape. He suggested that staff consider the possible
adverse environmental aspects, rather than focus on just financial benefits, prior to implementing
the program.
Deputy Mayor Rindone noted for the record that page 4-2 of the report contained environmental
benefits as well as cost advantages for using the proposed material.
Public Works Operations Director Byers responded to Mr. Krough's comments, stating that the

BOARD AND COMMISSIONS REPORTS
7. Report from the Ethics Commission regarding proposed modifications to the ethics code.
Chris Searles, Chair of the Board of Ethics, provided an update on Board activities during the
past year; and noted that the Ethics Code, established in 1967, had not been updated in the last 16
years. Over the next year, the Board would like to look at the current rule-based code in its
entirety and add certain fundamental values to create a hybrid type of code. Once completed, the
Ethics Board would go from being a compliance-based Board to one of independence, with
adequate resources and power to have some level of enforcement. Dr. Searles then asked the
Council for support in order to layout a road map within the next calendar year of the hybrid
rule- and value-based code, which would also require an ad hoc committee of the Council to
communicate with the members of the City Council to obtain points of view as to what works
and does not. Representatives from key community groups, similar to the Redevelopment
Advisory Committee, would offer input at public workshops to create a shared Citywide vision
for the code.
Mayor Cox asked Assistant City Attorney Hull to follow-up with the Board of Ethics.
Deputy Mayor Rindone expressed his preference that applicants for the Board of Ethics be
recommended by a judge, the original selection method. He asked that the Board consider
meeting with the head of the South Bay courthouse to express the importance of this nomination
process. Dr. Searles thanked Deputy Mayor Rindone for his comments and stated that the Board
also supports recommendations by a judge. He said the Board is looking at other options, such
as using retired judges, to avoid potential conflicts. He assured Deputy Mayor Rindone that this
issue would be included when the report was brought back.
Councilmember Ramirez concurred with Deputy Mayor Rindone's suggestions. As a past
member of the Board of Ethics, he suggested that the Board consider running through a mock
complaint to assist in identifying tools that are missing in the process. He also suggested that the
Board consider working with the academic community, such as the USD Values Institute.
Councilmember McCann stated that values should be the foundation for the rules, and ultimately
the rules should be clear and free of politics. Further, complaints must be handled in an
objective, non-biased way.
ACTION:
Deputy Mayor Rindone moved to refer the item to the City Attorney for a report
and proposed work plan. Councilmember Castaneda seconded the motion, and it
carried 5-0.

9. CONSIDERATION OF APPROVAL OF PRELIMINARY SCHEDULE OF
COMPETITIVE GRANTS FOR FISCAL YEARS 2007-2008
Each year, the Council is presented with numerous requests to approve the filing of
competitive grant applications to help fund City projects. At this time, a number of
grants have been identified for Fiscal Years 2007 and 2008 that can potentially support
various City projects. (Assistant City Manager/Library Director)
Assistant City Manager/Library Director Palmer introduced Grants Development Manager
Burciaga, who presented the staff report and responded to questions of the Council.
Councilmember Rindone asked staff to schedule a workshop to review and potentially revise the
Council's strategic goals. Mayor Cox suggested that Deputy Mayor Rindone's request might be
dovetailed into the future workshop regarding CDBG programs.
Councilmember Castaneda stated that grant applications should be considered first and foremost
to provide services to Chula Vista citizens, and secondarily for regional issues.
Mayor Cox asked that specific grant information be presented in a summary form.
Councilmember Ramirez asked the limitations to seeking more grants and said he would like to
see a report in the future on the economics of increasing grant staffing in order to increase grant
allocations.
Deputy Mayor Rindone stated that the requirement for matching funds should not be a
discriminating factor when deciding which grants to apply for.

Mayor Cox stated that information pertaining to this item had been placed on the dais.
Councilmember Castaneda recused himself out of an abundance of caution due to a potential
relationship with one of the entities involved in the matter. He then left the Chambers.
Mayor Cox stated the health care in the South Bay was very fragile, especially with the recent
loss of Paradise Valley Hospital as a not-for-profit institution. She and others in the community
have become concerned that the type of health care residents of the South Bay had come to know
and trust would no longer be available, which prompted the drafting of the resolution before the
Council. She expressed pleasure in receipt today of a letter from Mr. Richard Liekweg, CEO,
UCSD Medical Center, and she called on Mr. Liekweg, who had asked to address the Council.
Richard Liekweg, CEO, UCSD Medical Center, committed to continuing the longstanding
service to all patients served throughout San Diego, and to making substantial financial
commitments to improve and expand services at the Hillcrest and East Campus in La Jolla.
Additionally, he stated that UCSD endorsed the findings of the San Diego County Health Care
Safety Net Study and was actively participating in public/private work groups to help implement
the recommendations, including the one focused on the South Bay. In closing, Mr. Liekweg
reiterated that UCSD was committed to continuing to provide world class service in health care
services, research and academic training in San Diego, including the South Bay, and he looked
forward to further discussions and dialogue to ensure all San Diegans have the best health care.
Jose Calderon, resident of Bonita, member of the UCSD Board of Overseers, President of the
Mexican! American Business and Professional Association, and a recent member of the Scripps
Mercy Hospital Chula Vista Advisory Board, urged the Council to support the proposed
resolution. She thanked UCSD for its recent public statement that is was reevaluating its plan to
close the hospital in Hillcrest, and stated that everyone in the South Bay should encourage the
university to change its plans and keep in-patient beds in Hillcrest past 2030.

12. COUNCIL COMMENTS
Deputy Mayor Rindone commented on the need to return to holding Council tours of the City
every three or four months on Saturdays and suggested that one could be scheduled prior to the
next budget workshop to view facilities and capital improvement projects. He then congratulated
the American Little League on the grand opening of its facility at Hilltop Meadow. He also
commended the City and other agencies involved in the career fair held this past Saturday and
requested a report assessing the fair and making recommendations for future events. He thanked
the Mayor for her attendance at the USFirst Robotics Competition and asked staff to alert the
Council of such competitions in the future. He then reminded Councilmembers that the purpose

WHEREAS, based on the results of the Initial Study, the Environmental Review

Declaration, 1S-06-005,
B. Independent Judgment of the City Council
WHEREAS, the City Council has exercised their independent review and judgment and
cOncurs with the Planning Commission, and Environmental Review Coordinator's determination

Review Procedures of the City of Cbula Vista and adopts the Mitigated Negative Declaration and
Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (IS-06-005).
C. The rezoning of the Project Site is consistent with the City of Chula Vista General
Plan, as approved On 12/13/05, and public necessity, convenience, the general welfare and good
zoning practice support the amendment to the Municipal Code.
D. The City Of Chula Vista Zoning Map established by Section 19.18.010 of the
Chula Vista Municipal Code is amended to rezone the Project Site as depicted in Exhibit "A"
from the R-2-P (One and Two Family Residential, Precise Plan) Zone to the R-3-P, Apartment
Residential Zone with Precise Plan Modifying District, including Property Development
Standards as represented in Exhibit C.
E. Precise Plan Findings
1. That such use will not under the circumstances of the particular case 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 City Council [mds that the proposed precise plan standards contained in
attached Exhibit C will not have a negative impact on the surrounding
neighborhood because the proposed standards allow the applicant to design a
Project that is more compatible with higher density residential and transit-
oriented mixed-use development planned for the area. The surrounding area
includes mobile home park and proposed multi-family dwellings on the north,
multi-family dwellings on the east, and single-family homes to the south and
west. Such standards will allow the flexibility in establishing new
development standards for building height and setback regulations that will
permit construction of attached town-home dwelling units with garages,
private balconies, and common open space, which is more appropriate for the
area, as it transitions from existing duplex and single-family development to
transit-oriented high density residential and mixed use type development.
2. That such plan satisfies the following principles for amendment of the "P"
modifying district as set forth in CYMC 19.56.041:
~-3
Ordinance No.
Page 4
(a) The City Council finds that the property is unique in terms of its physical
characteristics, configuration, circulation, social or historic characteristics
requiring special design. The Site is located within the Transit Focus Area
General Plan land use designation, which includes goals and objectives
intended to promote high density, transit-oriented residential uses.
Because the zoning intended to implement the Transit Focus Area
designation has not yet been adopted yet; a rezone to the R-3-P zone is the
most effective way to establish high -density residential development
standards in a manner that complies with the City's General Plan and
Zoning Ordinance.
(b) The City Council finds that the Site is adjacent and contiguous to other
areas that are designated as a Transit Focus Area and zoned (R-3)
Apartment Residential to the south and west, and (CT) Commercial
Thoroughfare to the north. The adoption of the amended Precise Plan
standards will allow the Project to be designed with development
standards which will mlike a more appropriate transition between adjacent
multi family and single family development, and will also be designed to
include walls, fencing and landscaped setbacks that will help buffer the
units adjacent from the adjacent uses, in a manner that the development of
the Site will better coexist with adjacent uses.
(c) The City Council finds that application of the "P" modifying district is
appropriate because the underlying R-2-P zone regulation does not allow
multi-family development standards needed to achieve a high -density
residential Proj ect design, and therefore a precise plan modifying district
is needed to allow a more compatible design.
3. That any exceptions granted which may deviate from the underlying zoning
requirements shall be warranted only when necessary to meet the purpose and
application of the Precise Plan. Development of the lot using the development
standards of the R-3 zone would limit the ability of the applicant to propose a
design which:
(a) Meets the goal of providing development standards consistent with the
high-density attached housing, including: (1) 3-story, multi-family
townhome dwelling unit type, (2) 5-foot front yard and 7-foot rear yard
building setbacks; (3) Dedicated pedestrian access; (4) centralized
cornmon recreational facilities. The typical R-3 zone permits 2-story,
28-foot high buildings, and 15-foot front and rear yard setbacks.
The City Council finds that these requested deviations under the Precise Plan
are warranted in order to achieve the purpose of the Precise Plan Modifying
District.

4. That the approval of this plan will conform to the General Plan and the
adopted policies of the City Of Chula Vista.
The City Council finds that the Project has been designed and evaluated in
accordance with the goals and objectives of the General Plan, including the
Transit Focus Area. The Precise Plan, as described above, will allow the
Project to be consistent with the goals and objectives of the General Plan, and
the Chula Vista Municipal Code.
F. The Precise Plan and Precise Standards as depicted in Exhibits Band C are
adopted and are supported by the required findings (CYMC section 19.56.041, as outlined in
Section II (E) above).

BACKGROUND
Chapter 2.16 of the Municipal Code currently provides for a Library and Recreation
Department, which has evolved into two separate departments. Adoption of the proposed
ordinance establishes the Recreation Department and the Library Department and assigns
duties and responsibilities to their directors.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The Environmental Review Coordinator has reviewed the proposed actIVIty for
compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined
that the activity is not a "Project" as defined under Section 15378 of the State CEQA
Guidelines; therefore, pursuant to Section 15060( c )(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines the
activity is not subject to CEQA.
RECOMMENDATION
Council place the ordinance on first reading.

DISCUSSION
This is the first of many Municipal Code housekeeping amendments to be presented for
Council consideration. Currently, Chapter 2.16 of the Municipal Code establishes the
Library and Recreation Department, outlines duties and limitations of authority of its
director, and re-establishes the Charter-created Parks and Recreation Commission. The
Library and Recreation Department has evolved into two separate departments, the
Library Department and the Recreation Department. The proposed ordinance amends the
Municipal Code to accurately reflect the establishment and duties of each separate
department. Another ordinance will be presented in the future to withdraw the Parks and
Recreation Commission from Chapter 2.16, assign it its own chapter number, and place it
in the Code along with all other boards and commissions. (City Clerk, Assistant City
Manager/Library Director, Recreation Director).
DECISION MAKER CONFLICT
Staff has reviewed the decision contemplated by this action and has determined that it is
not site specific and consequently the 500 foot rule found in California Code of
Regulations section 18704.2(a)(I) is not applicable to this decision.
FISCAL IMPACT
The only cost is the minor cost to codify the ordinance into the Municipal Code, and
funds have been budgeted for this purpose in the City Clerk's supplies and services
account.

BACKGROUND
Due to increased costs associated with conducting an election and the unanticipated
services required of the Registrar of Voters to validate signatures on two petitions, it is
necessary to appropriate $39,682 from the available balance in the general fund to the
City Clerk's supplies and services budget.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The Environmental Review Coordinator has reviewed the proposed actIVIty for
compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined
that the activity is not a "Project" as defined under Section 15378 of the State CEQA
Guidelines; therefore, pursuant to Section 15060(c)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines the

Page 2 of2
DISCUSSION
A special municipal election was held on November 7, 2006 to select a Mayor and one
member of the City Council, and to submit to the voters three ballot measures. The
preliminary estimate from the Registrar of Voters to conduct the election was $87,705.
The actual cost of Chula Vista's election was $115,411, an increase of $27,706.
According to the Registrar of Voters, the final costs were greater than the estimates due
to the additional labor, supplies, and equipment required for the full implementation of
touch-screen voting units with backup paper ballots at each polling location, as well as
the additional costs of translation, ballot assembly and printing of sample ballots in
languages required by the Help America Vote Act. Most of the increase can be absorbed
by savings in the City Clerk's supplies and services budget, however, an additional
$6,700 is needed to pay the final invoice for the November 2006 election.
Additionally, a petition regarding allowable building heights was filed in the City Clerk's
office on February 21,2007, and the San Diego County Registrar of Voters validated the
required number of signatures and certified the petition on March 27, 2007. The cost for
these services was $11,982. As indicated in the agenda report dated April 17, 2007, an
appropriation is now needed in order to submit payment for these services.
On April 18, 2007, a petition was filed with the City Clerk regarding a charter
amendment to provide for the election of the City Attorney. The petition has been
forwarded to the San Diego County Registrar of Voters for signature verification
services. The estimated cost for these services is $21,000. The difference in cost
between the two petitions is due to a larger number of signatures needing validation for
the elected City Attorney petition.
DECISION MAKER CONFLICT
Staff has reviewed the decision contemplated by this action and has determined that it is
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.
FISCAL IMPACT
The City Clerk's office was able to absorb $21,006 of the increased election costs within
the existing budget. The impact to the general fund reserves in fiscal year 2007 will be
$39,682.

As a Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) entitlement community, the
City receives funds under three Federal block grant programs: Community Development
Block Grant (CDBG); Emergency Shelter Grant (ESG); and the HOME Investment
Partnership Act (HOME) program, which includes the American Dream Downpayment
Initiative (ADDI) Set-Aside. The entitlement amounts are determined by a formula
based on statistical and demographic data. The funds are designed 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.
On March 13,2007, the City Council held a Public Hearing to solicit input on the 2007-
2008 CDBG, HOME and ESG proposals. In addition, staff funding recommendations
were provided to Council. Final approval of the Annual Action Plan is necessary before
submission to HUD.

DISCUSSION
FUNDING PRIORITIES
The City of Chula Vista's Five-Year Consolidated Plan is a comprehensive planning
document which identifies the City's needs in housing, homelessness, community and
economic development. The City is required by the U.S. Department of Housing and
Urban Development (HUD) to complete a Consolidated Plan every five years to receive
federal funds for the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), HOME Investment
Partnerships (HOME), and Emergency Shelter Grant (ESG) programs. This plan was
most recently completed in 2005. In addition, the City is required to prepare an Annual
Action Plan which identifies a strategy for addressing the identified needs of the
community through the use of CDBG, HOME, ADDI, and ESG funds (Action Plan on
file with the City Clerk). This includes allocating funds for administration and planning,
capital improvements, community projects, public services, affordable housing, single-
family rehabilitation, and first-time homebuyer programs.
The funding priorities identified in both the five-year and annual planning documents are
accomplished with participation from the public as well as the City Council. This is done
through a minimum of two public hearings as well as comment periods for each of the
documents. The first public hearing for this Annual Plan was held by the City Council on
6-2
May 1,2007, Item (0
Page 3 of 11
December 12, 2006 to review past performance and solicit input on priorities for the
upcoming fiscal year. The second public hearing was held on March 13, 2007 to receive
comments on draft funding recommendations for FY 2007-08. The 30- day comment
period for the Action Plan began on March 16 and ended April 17,2007. No comments
were received. In the fall of 2007 staff will conduct a workshop to report back on the
2006/2007 program year accomplishments as well as present proposed funding priorities
for fiscal year 2008/09. This workshop will provide council with the opportunity to
establish any new funding priorities and/or selection procedures.
This report reviews the 2007-2008 entitlement amounts as well as the requests for
funding received from various City departments and local organizations.
The pie chart below demonstrates to which funding priorities the City is allocating the
combined federal grants (CDBG, ESG and HOME). Following the chart, the federal
grants will be broken down individually, detailing the specific use of funds.

Public Services Category: The City received seventeen (17) eligible requests for public
services totaling $474,364. Based on the required 15 percent (15%) cap of the
entitlement funds ($2,046,334), the City may allocate up to $306,950 for public service
programs.
The funding requests received from all public service organizations were determined to
be CDBG-eligible, as they meet the national objective to primarily benefit low-income
families. Of the seventeen proposals received, staff recommends funding fifteen. All
have been funded in the past and have provided very valuable services in various
categories while adhering to all of the program regulations. There was no change in
priorities and no significant change was received in funding levels at the federal level, the
programs received similar funding as in prior years. The only new activity recommended
for funding is the MAAC Project - Financial Planning. Staff recommended funding this
project due to its consistency with the City's goals and objectives in serving youth. At
the March 13, 2007 meeting, Council expressed interest in assisting Southwestern
College find alternative funding for the Wheelchair Accessible Van. Subsequent to that
meeting, staff has connected Southwestern College with local Rotary Clubs for
alternative funding sources. In addition, staff redistributed $2,000 from the Child Care
Coordinator Program to the South Bay Community Services Food and Voucher Program,
per the Chula Vista's Elementary School District's request.

Capital Improvement and Community Enhancement Category: The City has
historically allocated approximately $1.3 million of the CDBG entitlement amount to
fund capital improvements projects and code enforcement activities each year. Although
this category is not subj ect to a spending cap limit, the funding amount is limited and
determined by the residual amount after the distribution among the Administration and
Public Services categories. For 2007/08 the remaining amount is $1,380,582. These
funds are used to complete infrastructure improvements such as installation of new curbs,
gutters, sidewalks, ADA pedestrian ramps, public facility improvements, and code
enforcement activities in the low/moderate income areas of the City. In addition, the first
debt service payment for the Section 108 Loan will be issued through this year's CDBG
capital improvement category.

EMERGENCY SHELTER GRANT (ESG) PROGRAM
Chula Vista will receive Emergency Shelter Grant (ESG) entitlement funds in the amount
of $88,095 for fiscal year 2007-2008. The Emergency Shelter Grant (ESG) program is
designed to be the first step in a continuum of assistance to prevent homelessness and to
enable homeless individuals and families to move toward independent living. ESG is a
formula-funded program that uses the CDBG formula as the basis for allocating funds to
eligible jurisdictions. The City received a new applicant for ESG funds from the
Ecumenical Council of San Diego to assist in the provision of emergency winter shelter.
Staff recommended funding the Ecumenical Council of San Diego in addition to South
Bay Community Services. While South Bay Community Services provides homeless
services primarily to women, children, and families, the Ecumenical Council provides
services to a more general homeless population.

The City will receive $948,334 in HOME funds from HUD for FY 2007-2008, which
includes $17,444 of set-aside funds for the American Dream Down Payment Program.
HOME funds may be used to provide affordable rental housing and ownership
opportunities through new construction, acquisition, rehabilitation, and tenant-based
rental assistance. Over the past seven-years the City has used these funds to support new
construction and acquisition activities related to the development of affordable housing.

PROJECT CONTRACTS
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) requires a written
contract between the City and each project/program funded through the CDBG, ESG and
HOME funds. HOME funds are primarily used for the provision of affordable housing,
and requests will be brought forward as projects are negotiated.
The Project contracts between the City and the Subrecipients cover the period from July
I, 2007 to June 30, 2008. Each contract has several exhibits attached which are
incorporated into the contract. Sample contracts including attachments (a) through (d),
are included as Attachments 2 and 3, respectively. The attachments to the agreements
are:
. Attachment A: The Scope of Work describes the service the agency will be
providing and the estimated number of people who will be provided each of these
services each month. This performance schedule will be used to monitor each
agency's progress in completing the scope of work. The Scope of Work includes an
Estimated Budget that details how the agency intends to expend the CDBG/ESG
funds. This itemized budget will be used to monitor expenditures throughout the
year. Minor adjustments to budget line items or necessary programmatic changes to
the Scope of Work will be handled administratively.
. Attachment B: Insurance Requirements describes the insurance requirements by
the City of Chula Vista.
. Attachment C: The HUn Income Limits for the San Diego Standard
Metropolitan and sample form (effective March 2007) will be used to determine the
number of low income households/persons served. Each program is required to serve
a minimum of 51 percent low-income persons/households. A sample form for
capturing this data is included in CDBG agreements.

DECISION MAKER CONFLICT
Staff has reviewed the decision contemplated by this report and has determined that 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)(I) 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.
In addition, all agencies entering into an agreement with the City for use of Federal Grant
funds have submitted a Third Party Disclosure form which are included as Attachment 4.
FISCAL IMPACT
For Fiscal Year 2007-2008, the City will allocate $2,096,798 in CDBG; $948,334 in
HOME and $88,095 in ESG, for a total of $3,133,227 in federal grant funds. The grant
funds will be appropriated in the FY 2007-2008 City Proposed Budget as follows:
Grant Program
(Budl!;ct Fund) Budl!;ct Catcgo'1 Amount
CDBG (333) Capital Improvement Proiects $430,582
CDBG (333) Other Pro2:Tams/Proiects $496,950
HOME (321) Other Programs/Proiects $855,245
CDBG (333) Debt Service Pavment $800,000
ESG (333) Other Programs/Proiects $83,691
CDBG (333) Administration $369,266
HOME (321) Administration $93,089
ESG (321) Administration $4,404
TOTAL $3,133,227
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.
CDBG contracts, internal projects and administrative costs, totaling $2,096,798, will be
funded out of the City's 2007-2008 CDBG entitlement; HOME contracts totaling
$948,334 will be funded with HOME entitlement funds; and $88,095 from ESG
Entitlement funds, all from the Department of Housing and Urban Development. In the
remote event that HUD should withdraw the City's CDBG and HOME funding, the
agreements provide that the City is not obligated to compensate the Subrecipients for
program expenditures.

ITEM TITLE:
4/5THS VOTE: YES D NO ~
BACKGROUND
On January 23, 2007, McMillin Land Development submitted a payment request for
reimbursement in the form of Transportation Development Impact Fee (TDIF) credits for
the construction of storm drain facilities in Birch Road within the SR125 right-of-way.
The change order total of $302,206.19 is above the $50,000 limit and therefore requires
Council approval. Tonight, Council will consider approving the TDIF change order for
the construction of the storm drain facilities associated with Birch Road and the
reimbursement to McMillin in the form ofTDIF credits.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The Environmental Review Coordinator has reviewed the proposed actIVIty for
compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined
that the activity is not a "Project" as defined under Section 15378 of the State CEQA
Guidelines therefore, pursuant to Section 15060(c)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines the
activity is not subject to CEQA. Thus, no environmental review is necessary.
RECOMMENDATION
That Council adopt the Resolution approving a change order requested by McMillin Land
Development associated with storm drain facilities constructed in Birch Road within the
SRl25 right-of-way.
BOARDS/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
Not applicable.

DISCUSSION
The TDIF program is responsible for the equitable construction of major roads east ofI-
805 by developers. The program works by allowing developers to competitively bid and
construct these roads. The audited cost is applied as a credit that can be used in lieu of
paying the TDIF fee at building permit issuance. Therefore, the City's general fund does
not finance the construction of TDIF facilities. Staff brings all TDIF change orders
above a cumulative $50,000 to City Council for their consideration prior to authorizing
the TDIF credit for the developer.
On January 23, 2007, McMillin Land Development submitted a TDIF credit request for
the construction of storm drain facilities constructed by TC Constmction Company
within Birch Road. The current TDIF program dated January 5, 2005, identifies this
portion of Birch Road as a portion of Facility #42 and #43 (See Figure 1). The TDIF
estimate for facilities 42 and 43, Birch Road from La Media to Eastlake Parkway, was
$11,438,026 (See Table 1 below and Exhibit 1). The original contract between McMillin
and TC Constmction Company encompassed the construction of Birch Road from
Magdalena Avenue to the western right-of-way line of SR125. Subsequently, McMillin
received an encroachment permit from Caltrans, which allowed them to expand the scope
of work through the right-of-way of SR125 as shown in Figure 1. This additional work
was added to the contract using the originally competitively bid unit prices.
Although the actual costs for the drainage facilities exceed the cost estimates, the overall
project is well below the overall TDIF cost estimate as shown in Table 1 below. The
reason for the cost difference was that the TDIF cost estimate assumed smaller pipe sizes
than were actually constructed. Staff recommends approval of the change order because
the overall costs were below budget and are therefore within the projections of the
currently approved TDIF fee program.

the amount of$302,206.l9 (See Exhibit 2).
There is one Resolution for this item on tonight's agenda, which, if adopted, will
accomplish the following:

. Approve the TDIF change order for the construction of storm drain
facilities in Birch Road within the right-of-way for SR125.
. Award $302,206.19 in TDIF cash credits to McMillin Land Development.
DECISION MAKER CONFLICT
Staff has reviewed the property holdings of the City Council and has found no property
holdings within 500 feet of the boundaries of the property which is the subject of this
action.
FISCAL IMPACT
There will be no direct fiscal impact to the City. Costs associated with this processing
will be borne by the developer.

BACKGROUND
On May 2, 2000, the City Council approved a contract with Dudek & Associates for environmental
and engineering services for the Salt Creek Gravity Sewer Interceptor and the Wolf Canyon Gravity
Sewer Interceptor. The contract has since been amended four times to complete the design and
constmction of these proj ects. A fifth amendment for up to $56,722 is necessary in order to
complete the remaining portion of the Auto Park Sewer Line (a component of the Salt Creek Tmnk
Sewer Project).
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The Environmental Review Coordinator has reviewed the proposed activity for compliance with
the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined that the activity, adoption
of a contract amendment, is not a "Project" as defined under Section 15378 of the State CEQA
Guidelines; therefore, pursuant to Section 15060(c)(2) of the State CEQA Guidelines the activity
is not subject to CEQA. Thus, no environmental review is necessary.
RECOMMENDATION
That City Council adopt the Resolution:
Waiving the consultant selection process and approving a fifth amendment to the agreement
between the City of Chula Vista and Dudek & Associates, Inc., for the provision of additional
environmental and engineering services required for the completion of the Auto Park Sewer Line

Amendment.
BOARDS/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
Not applicable.
DISCUSSION
It was originally contemplated that the Salt Creek Trunk Sewer line would be designed to serve
developments in the eastern territories (Salt Creek, Poggi Canyon and Wolf Canyon Basins) and
a portion of the Main Street Basin. The pipeline was intended to convey flows from the Chula
Vista Auto Park and adjacent parcels along Main Street between the Amphitheater and I-80S (see
Exhibit A). However, due to topographical constraints discovered during the design phase, the
Auto Park portion of the Salt Creek Trunk Sewer could not be installed at the proper depth to
serve that purpose. As an alternative, the City of Chula Vista ("City") worked with the City of
San Diego to develop a solution to serve that area by conveying the flows to the City of San
Diego's Otay Valley Trunk Sewer line. This solution made sense because the City was already
using that line to serve Knott's Soak City and the Amphitheater. Those properties also faced the
same constraints at the time they were developed.
Currently, flows generated from a portion of the Auto Park on the south of Main Street are
conveyed to a pump station at the southwest corner of Fuller Ford's property, and from there, are
pumped into the Main Street Trunk Sewer line. The City has expended considerable funds over
the years to maintain and operate this pump station. Constructing the Auto Park Sewer (an eight-
inch sewer line which runs from the pump station I, I 00 feet westerly and connects to the City of
San Diego Otay Valley Trunk Sewer) will enable the City to decommission this pump station
and provide service to the Auto Park area by way of a more efficient gravity sewer line.
While the City was preparing the design plans for the Auto Park Sewer, Yacoel Properties was
also preparing to commence development of 4501 Main Street ("The Crossings") where the new
Kohl's, Panda Chef, and Babies 'R Us stores, etc., are located. Staff and the Developer
recognized an opportunity to expedite the construction of that portion of the trunk line that
traversed The Crossings Project, thus negating the need to trench through the new parking lot at
a later date. Consequently, the City entered into an agreement with Yacoel properties to
construct that portion of the line within The Crossings Project and to reimburse Yacoel
properties for this work from the project funds. That pipeline has since been completed and the
reimbursement provided. The City was then left with the responsibility of completing the
remaining portion of the Auto Park Sewer gravity line, approximately 350 lineal feet as shown in
Exhibit A.
Concurrent with the installation work being done as part of The Crossings, staff continued
working on this last piece of the sewer line. As work on the project (i.e., preparation of design
plans, specifications, etc.) proceeded, changes in the scope of work occurred due to
topographical constraints, and property ownership/right-of-way acquisition, cumulatively
resulting in significant delays to the sewer project.

Coordination with The Crossings Project also led to several necessary changes in the alignment,
additional environmental constraints, and the need for additional geotechnical analysis within the
existing pump station to facilitate the decommissioning of the station. These unanticipated
issues were not part of the original agreement or any of the subsequent amendments with Dudek
ultimately resulting in the need for this Fifth Amendment to the contract.
Due to these unforeseeable circumstances, it has not been possible to complete the remaining
portion of the Auto Park gravity sewer line as originally anticipated resulting in the need for
additional work to be undertaken to complete the project.
Initial Agreements: On June 8, 1999, after a thorough selection process, City Council awarded
a contract to Dudek & Associates ("Dudek") for preparation of the Preliminary Design Report
for the Salt Creek Gravity Sewer Interceptor, which formed the basis of design for the project, in
the amount of$54,950 (Attachment 1). Subsequently, on May 2,2000, City Council approved an
agreement with Dudek & Associates for the provision of environmental and engineering services
required for the final design and construction of both the Salt Creek Gravity Sewer Interceptor
($880,195) and the Wolf Canyon Gravity Sewer Interceptor ($279,814) for an amount not to
exceed $1,160,009 (Attachment 2).
First Contract Amendment: The original alignment design was found to be insufficient to
accommodate the new trunk line and to have potentially created environmental impacts-issues
that would significantly delay the completion of the project. In an attempt to mitigate this
situation, the alignment design was changed and the trunk line realigned in order to connect to
the City of San Diego Metro Interceptor by micro tunneling under the 1-5 freeway. The
additional work necessitated a first amendment to the contract in the amount of $42,762 for the
Salt Creek Project (Attachment 3).
Second Contract Amendment: The project alignment change also necessitated the addition of
a tunneling consultant to the project team as well as additional surveying services and
geotechnical services. A second amendment was approved by City Council in August 2001 for
an additional $501,250 (Salt Creek $460,020 and Wolf Canyon $41,230) (Attachment 4).
Third Contract Amendment: The third amendment revised the contract to include the
provision of additional engineering, geotechnical, surveying, and also the aerial photography
services required to complete the design of the project. The amendment further provided for
environmental compliance documentation services (preparation of Wetlands Mitigation Plans,
Focused Quino Checkerspot Butterfly Surveys, Mitigation Monitoring, and Paleontological
Monitoring) and electrical engineering services. In August 2002, the $925,314 amendment was
approved by the City Council (Salt Creek $716,022 and Wolf Canyon $209,292) (Attachment 5).
Fourth Contract Amendment: The fourth amendment revised the contract to include
compensation for additional environmental and engineering services required for the final phase
of the Salt Creek project ($317,309) and some additional work required for the Wolf Canyon
Trunk Sewer project ($93,809). In September 2004, the $411,118 amendment was approved by
City Council (Attachment 6).

Proposed Fifth Contract Amendment: Since the approval of the fourth amendment, the Salt
Creek Trunk Sewer has been completed. A significant portion of the Auto Park Trunk Sewer has
also been comp [eted, however, there is a need to obtain state and federal authorizations to
facilitate the construction of the remaining portion of the Auto Park Sewer. The scope and
budget of the Consultant (Dudek) needs to be revised to be able to complete these additional
tasks. The additional tasks are shown in greater detail in the table below. This fifth amendment
will be for a total amount not to exceed $56,722.
SALT CREEK AMENDMENT COST SUMMARY
Design Engineering Services Amount
Complete Salt Creek Trunk Sewer - Preparation of Record Drawings (Phases 2 & 3) $17,500
Engineering to Complete Auto Park Sewer Design (Drafting, Specs, and Project Mgmt.) $3,500
Consultant Services to Complete Auto Park Sewer Design (Hazardous Waste Investigation) $5,750
Engineering Services During Bidding $2,000
Engineering Services During Construction (including record drawings ~Auto Park Sewer) $5,000
Environmental Services Amount
Environmental Permits for Auto Park Sewer $12,000
CEQA Docs for Auto Park Sewer $5,040
Environmental Monitoring During Construction $14,000
TOTAL COST OF REQUIRED SERVICES $64,790
REMAINING UNUSED BUDGET ($8,068)
ADDITIONAL FUNDS REQUIRED FOR SERVICES $56,722
Waiver of Selection Process
Dudek has been responsible for the preparation of the design plans, specifications, estimates and
environmental permitting for the Salt Creek Project since project inception. Despite all the
challenges faced with this project, it was successfully completed. The Auto Park Sewer line is a
very small piece of the large project arising to address topographical constraints. Dudek has
presented 95% plans and specifications for this project. The additional tasks are primarily
required to gather data (hazardous waste evaluation) necessary to complete the environmental
permitting so that the project can be constructed. If approved, the proposed amendment will
increase Dudek's total contract for the design of the Salt Creek Project by $56,722 to a total of
$2,473,030. Since the overall cost of the Salt Creek Project amounted to $32,306,815, this
8-4
5/1/2007 , Item~
Page 5 of6
represents approximately 8% of the total construction costs of the project, which is highly
compelitive when compared to industry standards for a project of this size, Due to the urgency
of the project and required tasks, as well as other mitigating circumstances, engaging another
consultant to complete these tasks is deemed impractical, For these reasons, the City's interests
would be materially served with the waiving of the normal selection process so that the
originally selected consultant can see this project through to completion.
Staff is satisfied with the work completed by Dudek. The Consultant has been responsive to City
staff, and readily accessible for field trips, presentations, and various project meetings. Based on
these facts, staff recommends that the selection process be waived and that the agreement
between the City of Chula Vista and Dudek & Associates, Inc. be amended to include the
provision of additional engineering and environmental services required to complete the
construction of the Auto Park Sewer Line.
DECISION MAKER CONFLICT
Staff has reviewed the property holdings of the City Council and has found no property holdings
within 500 feet of the boundaries of the property, which is the subject of this action.
FISCAL IMPACT
The proposed action has no impact to the General Fund. The Salt Creek Trunk Sewer project
was funded primarily from two sources: Trunk Sewer Capital Reserve Fund (for that section of
the pipeline considered a regional facility) and Salt Creek Gravity Basin Development Impact
Fee (DIF) Fund (for that section of the pipeline which serves only the properties within the Salt
Creek and Wolf Canyon sewer basins). $32,306,815 has been allocated to the project to date.
The proposed amendment will increase the Salt Creek original contract with Dudek & Associates
by $56,722 to a total of $2,473,030 for the Salt Creek Gravity Interceptor project. However,
including compensation for the provision of engineering and environmental services required for
the preliminary design report of $54,950, Dudek's total compensation for this project amounts to
$2,527,980. The combined Salt Creek and Wolf Canyon original and preliminary design
contract amounts to $3,152,125, including this Amendment. There are currently sufficient funds
allocated to the Salt Creek Trunk Sewer Project to cover this amendment. Staff will re-evaluate
the project budget upon completion of the design plans, the environmental permitting process,
and receipt of bids for the construction of the Auto Park Sewer. At which time, staff will bring
this project back to Council to award the constmction contract.

- Provide Sewer Services to Salt Creek Sewer Basin
The final alignment of the SCGST shall be capable of providing sewer
services using gravity collection system to all existing and future facilities
and developments located within the Salt Creek Sewer Basin.
- City of San Diego Sewer Trunk
The City of San Diego owns and maintains a gravity sewer trunk that
parallels the Otay River and Faivre Street. This trunk is flowing at very low
capacity. Therefore, there may be an option for the City of Chula Vista to
reach an agreement with the City of San Diego to utilize this trunk as a
bypass line on a temporary basis during the construction of the SCGST. The
Consultant shall contact the City of San Diego to discuss said option and shall
provide relevant information in the Preliminary Design Report.
- Decommissioning Olympic Training Center Pump Stations
8'~-i3
The Olympic Training Center which is located easterly of Salt Creek is
presently pumping wastewater into Otay Lakes Pump Station through existing
three pump stations. The Consultant shall include in his design plans for
decommissioning these pump stations and connecting the Olympic Training
Center to the proposed SCGST via a gravity collection system.
- Decommissioning Auto Mall Pump Station
Consultant shall study the feasibility of decommissioning the Auto Mall pump
station, which is located on the north side of Otay River. It will be desirable
that all generated wastewater from the surrounding areas be connected to the
SCGST via gravity collection system. The Consultant shall provide full
analysis in his report to show how the connections from neighboring areas
along the whole length of SCGST will be made.
- Animal Shelter Pump Station
The Animal Shelter Pump Station which is located on the north side of Otay
River is going to be abandoned due to the relocation of the Animal Shelter
facility. Therefore, the decommissioning of this pump station shall not be
included in the design of this project.
- Access Road
Each manhole along the proposed SCGST shall be designed to allow for the
construction of an access road with a turnaround where an existing road is
not available to provide access for the future maintenance of the SCGST.
- Construction Staging Areas
Consultant shall analyze the construction zone and identify areas that can be
used to stage construction operations.
- Capacity in Telegraph Canyon Sewer Trunk
The existing Telegraph Canyon Sewer Trunk is approaching its maximum
flow capacity since some developments from non-tributary sewer basins have
been pumping wastewater flows through Otay Lakes Road and East Orange
Avenue Pump Stations. The Consultant shall evaluate the phasing of the
SCGST and shall include analysis on the future decommissioning of all such
pump stations to reduce the wastewater flow in the Telegraph Canyon Sewer
Trunk.
8~~
- Provide Cost Estimate for Connecting the Existing Facilities
The cost for connecting all existing facilities within the tributary areas of the
Salt Creek Sewer Basin and for connecting all the decommissioned pump
stations to SCGST via gravity collection system shall be included in the Cost
Estimate of this project. The removal and site restoration of these
decommissioned pump stations shall also be included in the cost estimate.

anticipated maximum project impacts. The Consultant shall prepare conceptual mitigation plans to
the satisfaction of CDFG, ACOE and RWQCB pursuant to their requirements for issuing the
necessary permits for the project.
Task 6.14
Focused Surveys For Quino Checkespot Butterfly
Consultant shall conduct an adult flight survey for the quino checkerspot butterfly in accordance
with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) 2000 Survey ProtocoL The scope of work includes
an updated habitat assessment before or during the first week of the butterfly Season in the year
2002. The habitat assessment shall identify portions of the project corridor that shall require an adult
survey, based on any changed field conditions that may have occurred since the last survey period..
The assessment shall include a general field survey where appropriate habitat characteristics shall be
mapped onto an enlarged (200 percent) U.S. Geblogical Survey (USGS) 7.5 minute topographic
quadrangle IIiap, as requested by the USFWS.
Consultant shall conduct an adult flight survey for the quino checkerspot butterfly in accordance
with the USFWS 2000 survey protocol. Butterfly surveys shall be conducted once per week: for five
consecutive wee\G. The dates of the butterfly survey season shall be determined by the USFWS
based on monitoring of reference sites.
Surveys should only be conducted under acceptable weather conditions: dry weather; winds less than
15 mph; temperatures in the shade above 60. Fahrenheit on a clear, sunny day; and temperatures in
the shade above 700 Fahrenheit on an overcast or cloudy day. Any adult quino or larvae detected on
. the site shall be mapped onto the 200-scale base map and according to the USFWS 2000 protocol,
may be captured.. Quino larval host plants also shall be mapped onto the base map.
If a known or suspected quino checkerspot butterfly or larvae is detected on the site, Consultant is
"n;quired by the USFWS to report the finding within 24 hours by phone and FAX. Consultant shall
. nOtify the City of the finding prior to notif)&:g7tie USFWS: .
Within 45 days oftbe close of the adult flight season, a report shall be submitted to the USFWS,
Carlsbad Field Office, detailing the results. of the adult survey and habitat assessment. The report
shall include all biologists working on the project, with precise survey times and weather conditions,
a site assessment map with larval host plant locations, a list butterflies observed during weekly
surveys and photographs of any suspected quino larvae or butterllies. This report sball be submitted
to the City for review, prior to submitting to the USFWS. All mapping shall be placed in an
ArcCAD file for use with other biological resources in the Geographical Information System (GIS)
database.
Task 6.15
General Mitigation Monltoring
Consultant shall review all mitigation measures required by the EIR and detailed in the Mitigation
Monitoring and Reporting Program and identify all measures that have not yet been satisfied, or that
require ongoing monitoring. Consultant shall coordinate with the appropriate responsible parties to
ensure that all measures are carr.ied out. This task includes review of plans and specifications to
ensure that measures to be included in the design Stage are implemented, as well as field monitoring
at the appropriate frequency and duration to ensure that all measures that are to be implemented in
the field are satisfactorily completed. lbis task includes monitoring for mitigation measures related
to land use, traffic, hydrology, aesthetics, geology and soils, air quality and cultural resources.
Task 6.16
Biological Mitigation Monitoring
Consultant shall review all biological mitigation measures for the project that Were proposed under
the "Without the Subarea Plan" scenario. The measures include those that require review of plans
and specifications, and those that require field monitoring. For the measures requiring plan review,
Consultant environmental staff shall work with the design engineers to ensure that the design of the
facilities conforms to the requirements of the mitigation measures. The focus of this effort shall be
to develop construction documents that clearly delineate areas where sensitive biological resources
must be avoided during construction, including .the placement of construction fences or other
barriers. In addition, Consultant sball ensure that the measures relating to the timing of construction
activities, and restrictions related to construction noise and disturbances are clearly defined in the
specifications for the contractor.
During constructi9n, Consultant shall monitor construction activities to ensure that the measures
outlined in the specifications are adhered to, and that construction activities remain within the
prescribed limits. Monthly field;visits are proposed throughout the construction_of Phases 3 and 4 of
the pipeline to accomplish this effort. Consultant shall report the findings of the monitoring in
monthly monitoring reports.
. Task 6.17. Paleontological Construction Monitoring
Consultant has retsined the San Diego Natural History Museum to perfor;m paleontological field
monitoring for Phases 2, 3 and 4. The monitoring shall consist of one qualified paleontologist
present during all phases of construction. ~s are detected, excavation work shall be
. conducted and resources shall be curated. The length of tP.e proposed ;Phase 2 pipeline is 2,403
linear feet, the Phase 3 pipeline is 32,431 linear feet, and the length. of the proposed Phase 4 pipeline
is 6,400 linear feet For Phases 2, 3 and 4, his assumed that the trench production pace sballaverage
200 linear feet/day. This equates with a trenching schedule of 12 days, 162 days and 32 days,
respectively. The proposed budget assumes an average of 4-hours/ day for monitoring of trench
excavation operations.
The mitigation excavation and curation portions of the scope and budget are designed to complete
the mitigation program. Finding the fossils is only the first step. They then have to be collected
(excavated) and removed from their enclosing rock matrix andstahilized so that they can be pl~
. into a scientific institution for permanent storage and/or display. Previous mitigation projects have
shown that, on average, preparation time equals approximately 35% offield time. Cataloging and
storage represent the final phases of mitigation and result in production of a specimen inventory of
recovered fossils and permanent storage of the cqllection at the Museum.
The uncertainty of fossil salvage should be stressed, since even with careful planning the true
significance of a site cannot be known until after the earthwork is well underway. It is in this spirit
of uncertainty that the not -to-exceed figure is proposed. In some cases, as the eanhwork: proceeds, it
may be det=ined that half time monitoring is unwarranted due to a lack of unearthed fossil
material. In these instances the monitoring time shall be cut back accordingly. Excavation and
curation activities are also tied to fossil productivity (no fossils, no sal"age or preparation) and as
such, the amount of time spent on these tasks sball vary from proj ect to proj ect The only fixed costs
are those related to field monitoring and final report preparation..
Task 6.18
Noise Measurements Of Construction Activities
Consultant sball perform measurements of coDstruction noise from existing construction activities to
determine a baseline for potential noise generation in sensitive habitat locations. Measurements sball
be conducted over a two-day period to determine the sound levels based on the dBA (Leq) standard
(one hour average).
Task 6.19
Meetingsl Project ManagementIDirect Costs
During the course of the work:, it is anticipated that additional project meetings shall be required to
coordinate the work of the Consultant and Subconsultant This task assumes that project meetings
shall continue on a monthly ba;;is, and that the duration of the proposed services would continue
through the end of construction.
8-79
Meetings. During the completion of the Salt Creek: project, a significantly increased
number of project meetings were and continue to be required.. 1b.ese meetings were
a!Jove and beyond that anticipated by the original proj ect scope. Additional
compensation is provided to the Consultant to address these increased meetings and
those meetings needed to complete the project.
Direct Costs. Direct costs that are associated with the proposed additional services
may include mileage, reproduction of documents, postage and delivery charges, and
other direct costs necessary for the completion of the specific services requested.
Task 6.20
Additional As-needed Environmental Services
Additional environmental services will be provided on an as-needed basis at the request of the City.
Specific services under this task are undefinable as of the writing of this scope. Therefore, for the
pllIposes of scope definition, an initial budget is assumed.. Consultant sball provide assistance in

B. SCOPE OF WORK FOR THE WOLF CANYON TRUNK SEWER PROJECT
The following revised Scope of Services is based on an original scope included in the contract of May 2,
2000. Specific design elements of that original scope have been completed, including aerial mapping
and surveying, various meetings, and a portion of the environmental work. However, as the project was
originally defined over two years previous and development information bas continued to be refined, the
City bas determined that preparation of a Wolf Canyon Preliminary Design Report is necessary to
completely define and evaluate recently identified W olfCanyon project alternatives. The revised Scope
of Services presented below reflects the worle required for development of the W olfCanyonPreliminary
Design Report, as well as the worle completed on the project to date. It is intended that the revised
Scope of Services defined under this section completely replace the previous scope of services
shown in the original agreement in its entirety.
It is noted that assumptions used in defining the scope for each task have been delineated for
clarification of the effort included in this revised scope of services, and subsequent compensation
associated with performance of those services. In the event that additional effort is required beyond the
included scope definitions, those efforts shall be considered additional services. Additional services
require prior authorization by the City before commencement. In the event that the Consultant does not
seek prior authorization of an additional service. the City will not be responsible for compensating the
Consultant for the unauthorized additional work. If an additional service is to be conducted, the City
shall provide written authorization for the additional service prior to commencement of the worle, and

Task 2.1.2.1 Gravity System Alternative (GSA#I) Development
The Consultant shall provide development of one (1) gravity system altemative in the W olfCanyon
PDR. The Wolf Canyon Gravity Trunk Sewer alternative shall be comprised of a single trunk sewer
approximately 14,000 linear feet in length, having an approximate I5-inch diameter. The pipeline is
proposed to be located within Wolf Canyon, paralleling the alignment of Wolf Creek in an existing
'~eep" trail. The pipeline is proposed to provide service to a total of approximately 6,820 commercial
and residential units (based on the most recent information at the time of the writing of this scope),
generating an average daily projected wastewater flow of approximately 224 mgd (3.63 mgd peak).
The preliminary pipeline information shall be developed in accordance witb City of Chula Vista
standards, and is presumed to discharge to the Salt Creek Interceptor Sewer at approximately Manhole
No. 86.
Task 2.12.2 Pump Station Alternatives Development

pipelines, preliminHry layout of proposed pump station facilities, identification of fo=main
discharge points, identification of other requi=ents including pOwer, standby facilities, emergency
overflow containment, and other considerations associated with each pump station alternative. The
facilities shall be devdoped in accordance with City of Chula Vista standardS.
Task 2.1.3 Access Roads & Trails
Each of the alternatives listed WIder Task 2.1.2 above shall include the identification of access road
. facilities necessary for City maintenance of the defined facilities, genera1ly following the entir:e
length of the. proposed project facilities. The PDR shall identify the proposed location of the
. identified access roads, as well as the general cross-section and construction material of the road
surface. Consideration of the size and types of service vehicles used by the City for maintenaiice of
the gravity, forcemain and pump station facilities shall be incorporated into the PDR analyses.
In addition to the required maintenance access roads, regional trail systems have also been identified
to be important within the Wolf Canyon area. ~nsultant shall identify regional trail facilities
" that may coincide with the alignment of the proposed project alternatives identified under Task 2.1.2
above. For pllIpOses of scope definition, the Consultant shall provide evaluation of a total of one (1)
regional trail within the vicinity of eaCh project alt=.ative defined under Task: 2.12 above.
Information to be provided shall include the approximate location of the regional trail fucilities, the

surfaces.
Access to the Wolf Canyon area will be greatly enhanced as developments in the area continue to
build and grow. However, prior to that anticipated growth, access for construction of the identified
alternative facilities will be constrained. The Consultant shall identify feasible construction access
for construction of each alternative prior to the proposed construction of the future La Media arid
Heritage Road improvements. Information collected under Task 12 above will provide specific
demarcation of the proposed alignments of these and other future proposed rights-of-way. It is noted
that the alignment of proposed roadways within the proposed Wolf Canyon developments may
change due to future developmental changes. Impacts associated with changes imposed by the
developers shall be considered additional services if they are to be incorporated into the PDR, if
requested after completion of engineering services for the first draft of the PDR, and shall require
City approval prior to incorporation.
Task 2.1.4 Stonnwater Collection & Treatment Systems
The Consultant sball include in the PDR an evaluation of a "basin-wide" stormwater collection and
"first flush" treatment system. This "basin-wide" stormwater collection system is intended to
capture and collect "first flush" stormwater runoff from the W olfCanyon basin. Two (2) alternative
systems have been identified by the City and shall be evaluated by the Consultant, including a buried
stormwater pipeline option and a brow ditch option. Each of these alternative systems is intended to
generally follow the proposed access road alignments. If additional alternatives are identified (by
either the City or the Consultant), those alternatives will be treated as additional services and will
require specific City authorization before evaluation and/or incorporation into the PDR For the
purposes of scope definition, each of the two (2) stormwater alternatives shall be evaluated for each
access road identified under Task 2.1.3 above.
Stormwater shall be .conveyed to a downstream treatment facility in tlie form of a constructed
wetlands habitat. The Consultant shall determine the alignment of the low-flow stormwater
collection faciliti~ as well as the approximate size and location of the downstream wetlands
treatment facility. The Consultant, in cooperation with the project Environmental staff, shall include
an analysis of the riparian comdor paralleling the Wolf Canyon project, .;md make certain that
intermittent water flow to Wolf Creek is maintained in such a manner as to avoid disruption of the
existing natural characteristics of the surrounding environment It is the intent of the City that a
system be devised that will dlvert low-flow and "first flush" storinwater into the stormwater
collection and treatment system, while allowing larger flows to be conveyed to and within the natural
waterways of WoIf Creek. The Consultant shall include in the PDR a description of the proposed
system, 11 xl? schematic drawings of the system components, and a de~cription of the intended
overall operation of the stoITnwater collection and treatment systems.
8-89
Standard Urban Storm Water Mitigation Plans (SQSMPs) require each proposed project to
implement measures to ensure that pollutants andrunofl'from the development will be reduced to the
maximum extent practicable (MEP). AI; part of the development plan for the area encompassing
Wolf Canyon, the Consultant shall prepare' aPrelimin~ry Design Report (PDR) addressing low flow
runoff and Structural BMP requir=ents to mitigate these flows. The following is a deliniation of
servcies required to prepare the Draft and Final PDR for this task.
Task 2.1.4.1 Basin Mapping
Following review of available data, collected under Task 12 above, a base map shall be prepared
showing identified proposed developments and drainage structures within the Wolf Canyon area.
Information derived from the developers will be used for development of the basin mapping. The
Coosultant shall provide the developed basin mapping in the Draft PDR for City use.
Following City approval of the Draft PDR., a final basin map will be. prepared based on co=ents
received from the City. The Coosultant will submit the fin~ 1i7,."f basin map with the Final PDR for
City use.
Task 2.1.4.2 Basin Hydrology
For development of the Draft PDR, the Coosultant shall identify drainage pa:ttems based on proposed
conditions and delineate sub-basins associ&ed with each proposed development. Delineation of
these drainage basins shall be based on the available information collected under Task 1.2 above, and
the surveying information collected or prepared under Element 3 below.
Following approval of the Draft PDR by the City, "low flow" discharges will be determined for each
sub-basins defined during the Draft PDR development using methods outlined in the San Diego
County Hydrology Manual. For purposes of sizing storm drains, "low flow" discharge will be based
on the maximum flow rate of runoff produced from a rainfall intensity of 0.2 inches of rainfall per
hour. For sizing of the treatment area, the flow will be volume-based and represent a 24-hour 85th
percentile storm event. Both flow-based and volume-based runoff criteria are outlined in the
California Regional Water Quality Control Boards Order No. 2001-01 forthe San Diego region. All
stormwatcr flows in excess of these defined "low flow" amounts will be bypassed to Wolf Canyon.
It is noted that the, Consultant' s ~cope does not include control of increased runofl'from individual
d~elopments within Wolf Canyon. State environmental law requires that postConstruction runoff
from new development to be less than or equal to the pre-construction amounts. The Consultant
shall not ~ responsible for control of increased flows or damage to the canyon resulting from lack of
appropriate storm water control measures on the part of the developers. It is also noted that pl~nning .
and design of the proposed "low flow" stormwater syst= does not include control of increased
flows from developments or design of required stormwater detention facilities forthe developments.
8-90
Task 2.1.4.3 Stormwater System Layout & Sizing
Based. on the results of Task 2.1.4.2 above, a conceptual storm drain system layout will be prepared
that will colhict the low flow discharge from each proposed development and route lhe flows to the
proposed wetlands area for treatment The proposed system layouts will incorporate 1he two
alternative conveyance methods identified by the City, including buried storm drains or a brow ditch.
F or the purposes of the Draft PDR, the system layout will be identified for presentation purposes
only.
Upon approval of the Draft PDR by the City, the proposed stormwater conveyance system shall be
sized using the flow-based discharges determined in Task 2.1.4.2 above. A computer model will be
developed for the proposed system and the .system shall be properly sized to convey the "low
flow"discharge to the treatment area. It is noted that the system shall not be sized to convey flows in
excess of the "low flow" discharge, and no controls will be designed to control increasednmofffrom
individual developments.
Task 2.1.4.4 Bypass Flow Structures
For the Draft PDR, a conceptual high flow bypass design shall be prepared that will divert and route
flows in excess of1he defined "low Flow" condition to Wolf Canyon Creek. The Consultant shall
prepare presentation drawings of the proposed facilities for the purposes of discussing the use of the
identified structures. .
Upon approval oflhe DraftPDRby the City, aprelimin.ry design of the bypassflowstructures shall
be completed. For purposes of scope definition, the design of the "high flow" diversion structures
will be based on the pre-construction 100-year storm event flow vohnne. It is noted that flows in
excess of the pre-constructionrunoff conditions within the Wolf Canyon basin shall be controlled by
the individual developers and the Consultants scope does not include services for control of flows
within Wolf Canyon.
Task 2.1.4.5 Wetlands Treatment Area
Based on informatiClo. developed under Task 2.1.4.4 above, the ConsU,ltant sball identify the
proposed placemem and prelimin.ry sizing of the wetlands treatment area. A conceptual plan shall
be prepared showing location and approximate size of the treatment area. Presentation drawings
shall be prepared to facilitate approval of the proposed facility.
Upon approval of the Draft PDR by the City, the Consultant shall size and locate 1he treatment area,
sufficient to captUre the volume-based flows determined in. T ask 2.1.42 above. Outlet structures for
. the treatment facility shall be designed in the Final Design phase of the project
Task2.1.4.6 Opinion of Probable Construction Cost

the Wolf Canyon drainage Basin, Final low, flow stonn drain alignment, Location and approximate
size of treatment area, Hydrologiclhydraulic Report (including treatment area sizing calculations),
Prelimin"TY Bypass Flow Design, and Prelimin"ry Engineer's Estimate.
Task 2.1.5 Geotechnical Investigations I Report
Geotechnical inIonnationwill be required for th~ PDR to identify the spe\:ific requirements of
construction within the Wolf Canyon area .However, prior to the selection of the preferred project
alternative and development of significant access roads, siting/conduct of necessary field
geotechnical activities will be difficult, if not impossible. Therefore, for the purposes of the PDR,
the Consultant shall provide a geological reconn"i<"'lllce study of the Wolf Canyon geotecho.cial
conditions only. Information, contained in the study shall be used to identifY the geotechnical
information required for evaluation of the project alternatives identified under Task 2.1.3 above.
Field geotecho.cial activities shall be provided for the preferred alternative only, under Element 4
below.
Potholing of existing utilities shall not be provided during the PDR phase of the project, as aresult of
the limited access availability. Information collected with regard to existing utilities will be used for
project alternative evaluation. Upon selection of the preferred project alternative by the City,
potholing of utilities identified to be critical to the vertical alignment of the proposed facilities shall
be conducted. Potholing services for the design phase of the project shall redefined under Element
4 of this scope. . .
Task 2.1.6 Construction Easement Requirements
Element 9 oftbis scope shall define services for.the identification, preparation and acquisition of
rights-of-way and easerrients for the preferred project as selected by the City. Therefore, for the
. pmposes of the PDR, the Consultant shall only identify' the easements and other rights-<lf-way
required for construction of each alternative defined under Task2.l.3 above. The Consultant shall
identify the property owners and the required length/width of each required easementlright-<lf-way.
Of particular concern is the United States government ownership of significant lands within Wolf
Canyon. The Consultant shall evaluate each al~2e with respect to the eas=ents and rights-<lf-
. way needed for construction.
Task 2.1.7 Environmental Compliance
t" :ii:: ': if
Prior to iin~1i.",tion of the PDR, environmental compliance documentation cannot be accurately
scoped or completed. However, it is necessary to make certain that environmental issues are
addressed during the development of the various PDR project alternatives. An Environmental
Constraints Analysis (ECA) is used to provide the required information, without the need for
extensive field SllrVeys. The ECA makes use of available information, aerial photography, and other
previously prepared literature to assist in the engineering development of the project alternatives. In
this manner, the alternatives can be planned to avoid environmentally sensitive areas and minimi7e
the need for subsequent environmental documentation efforts. Complete environmental compliance
documentation for the project is included under Element 6 of this scope of services. The Consultant
shall coordinate its effort with the City and the Consultant's Environmental Project Manager during
the development of alternative projects for the PDR.
The Consultant shall provide environmental input to the pre1im;n~'Y engineering design effort for
formulation of the PDR for the Wolf Canyon sewer alternatives. Environmental inputunderthis task:
will be based on the assembly and compilation of existing reports and aerial photographs, and
consultations withjurisdictional and respoI1Slole agencies. The scope of work for this task includes
no field studies, as site access will not be available. However if the City obtains right-of -entry prior

shall be mapped according to Holland. All mapping shall be done in the field directly onto a I 00- or
200-scale (1 "=1 00' or 200') topographic or aerial photographic bases and later digitized into
Geographical Information System (GIS) format using AutoCAD and Arc View. Where feasible and
necessary, vegetation boundaries shall be delineated using a Global Positioning System CGPS)
backpack unit and later downloaded into Arc View. During these field surveys, a general inventory
8-111
of plant and animal species detected by sight, calls, tracks, scat, or other signs shall be compiled as
well as a determination of potential sensitive species, which could occur on the project site.
Observable sensitive resources including rare plants (including Otay tarplant) and conspicuous
wildlife (i.e., birds and some reptiles) co=only accepted as regionally sensitive by the California
Native Plant Society (CNPS), California Department ofFish and Game (CDFG), and United States
Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) shall be recorded and later digitized into a GIS format and

of the United States, including wetlands. The ACOE wetlands delineation shall be performed in
accordance with the Federal Manual for IdentifvinQ: and DelineatinQ: Jurisdictional Wetlands (TR Y_
81-1). The wetlands delineation shall consist of the field identification of jurisdictional wetlands
using the three criteria described in the ACOE manual: hydric soils, hydrology and hydrophytic
vegetation; a predominance ofhydrophytic vegetation, where associated with a stream channel, will
be used to define CDFG-regulated wetlands.
TaskE - Focused Survey for California Gnatcatcher. Consultant shall conduct a focused survey
for the California gnatcatcher in accordance with the USFWS protocol. Directed surveys for the
federally listed threatened California gnatcatcher Shall be performed in all potential habitat areas,
including marginal habitat, on the project site. The surveys were conducted according to the
guidelines adopted by the USFWS on February 28, 1997. Three (3) site visits are required at a
minimum interval of seven days to obtain an adequate accuracy of counts. As specified in the
USFWS guidelines, surveys shall be conducted only during clement weather conditions to avoid
excessive or abnormal heat, wind, rain, or fog.
Data shall be collected on the number of individuals, and habitat characteristics, including slope,
elevation, dominant vegetation types, and habitat disturbances. The locations of observed California
gnatcatchers shall be mapped on an acetate overlay on an aerial photograph. These data should be
used to estimate the number of California gnatcatchers on the project sIte and to identify those areas,
if any, supporting high California gnatcatcher population densities. A report containing the findings
of the survey was prepared in accordance with the requirements of the USFWS.
Task F - Preliminary Biological Impact Analysis. Consultant shall conduct a prelimin"ry
biological impact analysis of the W olfCanyon Sewer alignment for purposes of comparing impacts
of the proposed alignment to other "out-of-canyon" options that are c=ently 'geing studied. The
prelimin"ry biological impact analysis shall be based upon the alignment identified in the
Preliminary Design Report and upon assumptions to be developed by Dudek and agreed to by the
City. A letter report of the findings of the analysis shall be prepared and should include impacts to
vegetation co=unities and sensitive biological resources. Impacts shall be characterized in terms
of direct, indirect and cumulative effects on species and habitats, and should be described in terms of
their presence onsite and regional significance. Graphics would illustrate the location of the site and
the existing biological condition of the site. Potential impacts to sensitive resources shall also be
8-112
discussed in terms of CEQA requirements and the requirements of the Subarea Plan. This task also
includes meetings and coordination with City staff in evaluating alignment options.

ITEM TITLE:
REVIEWED BY:
4/STHS VOTE: YES D NO 0
BACKGROUND
The City Manager received a letter from the editor of La Prensa San Diego, asking to be considered
a qualified bidder for Legal and Public Notice Advertisement Services. In December 2006 a
Request for Bid (RFB 3-06/07) was issued and sent to six publications. Responses were
received from The Star News (San Diego Neighborhood Newspapers) our current vendor
who will provide service at the continued rate of$IO.25 per column inch and La Prensa San
~iego.1 Both newspaper publishers indicated their publications to be "Newspapers of
General Circulation". La Prensa San Diego for the City and County of San Diego and The
Star News for the City of Chula Vista. The publisher for The Star News indicated by cover
letter with RFB 3-06/07 that The Star News was the only newspaper adjudicated as a
newspaper of general circulation for the City of Chula Vista. The City Attorney's Office
was asked to research the issue and has provided a Memorandum of Law dated February 28,
2007 (Attachment "A"). The research determined that The Star News (San Diego
Neighborhood Newspapers) is currently the only publication that meets City Charter
requirements to be approved as a newspaper of general circulation for the City of Chula
Vista.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The Environmental Review Coordinator has reviewed the proposed actlVlty for
compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined
that the activity is not a "project" as defined under Section 15378 of the State CEQA
Guidelines; therefore, pursuant to Section 15060 (c) (3) of the State CEQA Guidelines
the activity is not subject to CEQA. Thus, no environmental review is necessary.
RECOMMENDA nON
That Council adopt the resolution waiving the bid requirements and approving The Star
News as the newspaper of general circulation for the publication of all legal notices and
other matters required to be published by the City and approving the use of alternative
publications as necessary.
BOARDS/COMMISSION RECOMMENDA nON
Not Applicable
DISCUSSION
The Star News is the only newspaper that qualifies as a newspaper of general circulation
for the City of Chula Vista. The award will be based on the findings cited in the
Memorandum of Law dated February 28, 2007 (Attachment "A"), and the requirements
of section 313 (a) of the Chula Vista Charter (Attachment "B"). Because of the legal
findings the City will not award from the results of the RFB 3-06/07. The Star News
delivers 30,210 newspapers weekly throughout Chula Vista, 22,500 in home delivery, the
balance in bulk drops and routes.
Adoption of the resolution approves The Star News as the official newspaper of the City
of Chula Vista for the publication of all legal and public notices and other matters as
required and approves the use of alternative publications, such as The Daily
Transcript/San Diego and The San Diego Union Tribune, which publish daily, as
necessary. An alternative publication is sometimes necessary in order to meet a legally
mandated deadline that weekly publications cannot meet, or to publish certain election
notices in other languages. Besides English, Notices of Election are required to be
published in Filipino, Spanish, and Vietnamese. Those notices are published in
newspapers such as the Filipino Press. La Prensa San Diego, and Nguoi Viet Today
News, respectively.
In the future if other newspapers are adjudicated and become a newspaper of general
circulation for the City of Chula Vista the City will issue a Request for Bid as required in
the City Charter.

MEMORANDUM OF LA W
DATE: Febmary 28, 2007
TO: Councilmember Steve Castaneda
FROM: Sharon Marshall, Senior Assistant City Attorney
SUBJECT: Newspapers of General Circulation
MEMORANDUM OF LAW
QUESTION PRESENTED
What newspapers in the City of Chula Vista currently meet the requirements to be a
newspaper of general circulation, such that they qualify to publish all legal notices of the
City?
SHORT ANSWER
The basic mles for approval by the court as a newspaper of general circulation found in
Government Code section 6000 require that a newspaper provide local and telegraphic
news of general interest, have a bona fide subscription list of paying subscribers, and be
established, printed, and published at regular intervals in the city where official
advertising is to be given or made for at least one year before seeking approval by the
cOllii as a newspaper of general circulation. Government Code section 6008 provides
alternative qualification requirements by eliminating the printing requirement, but
increasing the time requirement to three years. It also adds a requirement that the
newspaper have only one principal office of publication and that office is in the city in
which it is seeking adjudication.
BACKGROUND
Chula Vista City Charter section 313 mandates that the City do an annual Request for
Proposals [RFP], inviting bids for the publication of all legal notices the City is required
to publish. However, the Charter also provides that if there is only one "newspaper of
general circulation" as that term is defined in the Government Code, the RFP process
may be waived and the newspaper can be designated as the City's official newspaper. In
1997, by Resolution Number 18793, the City Council waived the RFP requirement and

designated The Star News as the City's official newspaper for purposes of publishing the
City's legal notices. The Star News has been the official City paper since that time.
Currently, only the Star News meets the requirements to be approved as a newspaper of
general circulation. However, should La Prensa, or any other newspaper, fulfill the
requirements of either Government Code section 6000 or 6008, the City would be
required to rescind the official newspaper designation for The Star News and rebid the
contract on an annual basis as required by Charter section 313.
Subsequently, the editor of La Pren.sa newspaper submitted a letter to the City Manager
indicating that it, too, is a newspaper of general circulation for the City, and submitted a
copy of the court order adjudicating it as a newspaper of general circulation for the
County of San Diego, the City of San Diego, and the San Diego Judicial District to
support his assertion that La Prensa is a qualified newspaper for publishing official
notices for the City. La Prensa is not printed in the City of Chula Vista and its principal
publication office is in National City. La Prensa asked that an RFP be issued so it might
bid on the contract for the publication oflegal notices for the City.
All the requirements regarding official notices and publications are currently in the
California Government Code. Previously, however, the identical sections were found in
the California Political Code. For purposes of this Memorandum, unless specifically
noted, all references are to the Government Code.
ANALYSIS
The statutory framework for the qualification of newspapers of general circulation is set
forth in Government Code sections 6000 through 6027. The basic requirements for court
approval or adjudication are that the paper: (1) publish local or telegraphic news and
intelligence of general character; (2) have a bona fide subscription list of paying
subscribers; and, (3) be established, printed, and published at regular intervals in the
state, city, or county where the official notices are to be published for at least one year
preceding the date of adjudication. Cal. Gov't Code S 6000.
The courts have said:
[T]he purpose of the statute' is the qualification of
newspapers to which the general public will resort in order
to be informed of the news and intelligence of the day and
thereby to render it probable that notices and official
adveliising published in the newspaper will be brought to
the attention of the general public.

Lozano Enterprises v. Los Angeles Newspaper Services, 10 Cal. App. 3rd 1012, 1016
(1970).
Originally, Political Code section 4460 established the qualifications for newspapers of
general circulation and required newspapers be printed and published in the city seeking
adjudication. Early court decisions interpreted the meaning of the words "printed and
published" to mean that the paper be "produced in the community where it is aimed to
have it recognized as a legal advertising medium." In the Matter of D.D. McDonald,
187 Cal. 158, 161 (1921). The court said it "would be giving too narrow a meaning to the
word 'printed' to hold that these acts alone (setting up the type and making the
impressions on paper) were contemplated by its use in the statute." McDonald at 161.
However, in 1923, the Legislature added section 4463 to the Political Code, providing
that '''. . . The word 'printed' as used in said section [4460] shall mean, and be construed
to mean, that the mechanical work of producing such a newspaper of general circulation,
that is to say, the work of typesetting and impressing type on paper, shall have been
performed during the whole of the period as designated and required by said section.'''
Petitions of Herald Publishing, 152 Cal. App. 2d 901, 905 (1957). "The court concluded
that by the enactment of section 4463 the Legislature expressly intended to overcome the
effect of the McDonald case. . . ." Herald Publishing at 906. Subsequent cases reinforced
the Herald court's conclusion that by adding section 4463 the legislature intended that
both the mechanical process of printing the paper and the publication of the paper must
-occur in the city in which the newspaper seeks adjudication. Finally, courts have said
that, "[A]lthough a newspaper printed and published in one city may not qualifY as a
newspaper of general circulation for another city, it does qualifY as a newspaper of
general circulation for the county in which it is both 'printed' and 'published'." Western
States Newspapers Inc. v. Gehringer, 203 Cal. App. 2d 793, 797 (1962). Thus, based on
the language currently found in Government Code section 6000, the printing and
publishing requirement is mandatory and may not be waived.
Two intervening factors need to be considered in reaching the determination of whether
or not a newspaper meets the requirements to be approved by the court as a newspaper of
general circulation. The first factor was implemented in 1923, at the same time the
Legislature enacted the language specifically defining "printed." Political Code section
4465 (now Government Code section 6006) was added, which provided, "[N]othing in
this chapter alters the standing of any newspaper which, prior to the passage of Chapter
258 of the Statutes of 1923, was an established newspaper of general circulation,
irrespective of whether it was printed in the place where it was published for a period of
one year as required." Thus, any newspaper determined to be a newspaper of general
circulation prior to 1923 maintained its status. This exemption has been challenged as
being unconstitutional because the exemption allegedly arbitrarily discriminates against
newspapers established after 1923. :rn rej ecting the constitutional challenge, the court,

citing a previous Supreme Court case addressing the same issue, said it is not
"'unreasonable to exact certain requirements of a newspaper to be established in the
future which are not required of those long established and which have proved their right
to exist by full compliance with all the laws in force at the time of their establishment. ",
Whitehead Donovan Corp. v. Herald Publishing Company, 62 Cal. 2d 185, 187 (1964),
citing In re Byers, 219 Cal. 446, 450 (1933).
In 1951, a caveat was added that limited the exemption provided by section 6006 to those
newspapers that had not altered their city of printing or publication since the effective
date of the Act in 1923. This caveat was subsequently repealed in 1961, and the original
language preserving a pre-1923 newspaper's status was reinstated without limitation.
The Star News was established as a newspaper in 1919 (see attachment) and was printed
and published in the City of Chula Vista at that time. It thus falls within the exemption
provided by section 6006 and need not meet the printed and published requirement found
in section 6000. It also meets the remaining requirements of having a bona fide
subscription list and has been established for more than the requisite one-year period.
The second factor was the addition, in 1974, of Government Code section 6008. The
legislature realized the requirements of section 6000 were severely limiting in an era in
which newspapers printed in one city may be distributed in territories covering much
larger areas, such as the Union Tribune or Los Angeles Times. To address the issue, the
'legislature enacted section 6008, which provides alternative requirements for newspapers
unable to meet the printing and publishing requirements of section 6000. In section 6008,
the onerous provision that the newspaper be printed and published in the city where it
seeks adjudication was replaced by a less burdensome requirement that the newspaper
maintain its principal office in the city of adjudication. However, other requirements were
increased. The table below compares the requirements of the two statutes.
Gov't Code & 6000 ReQuirements Gov't Code & 6008 ReQuirements
. Bona fide subscription list of paying . Substantial distribution to paid
subscribers subscribers
. Printed and published at regular . One principal office of publication in
intervals m the city where the city seeking adjudication

The enactment of section 6008 raised two additional areas of dispute with respect to
whether or not a newspaper qualifies as a newspaper of general circulation. The first
question is the meaning of the phrase "a substantial distribution to paid subscribers in the
area in which it is seeking adjudication." Medeiros v. South Coast Ne-wspapers, 7 Cal.
App. 4th 982, 986 (1992). In Medeiros, the ratio of paid subscribers to inhabitants was
about 1.48 percent. Medeiros first argued this amount should be increased to include
newsstand sales. The court rejected this argument, noting that the Legislature originally
considered language that required only "a substantial distribution in the area in which it is
sold or distributed" (Medeiros at 986), but later changed the phrase to "a substantial
distribution to paid subscribers in the area in which it is seeking adjudication." Id. Based
on the pre-enactment legislative history, the court said "it is evident the legislature did
not intend to include newsstands in the substantial distribution requirement." Id. In
Medeiros, the court also determined that the relevant standard for determining
distribution was population rather than the number of households. Finally, the court
stated that, "[s]tanding alone, 1.48 percent is too small a number to be declared to be
substantial." Medeiros at 986. The court went on to say, however, that if all other papers
in the area had a similar percentage of population to paid subscribers, 1.48 percent might
be considered substantial. Id.
The [mal issue to be resolved by the courts was whether a substantial distribution
requirement should be read into the language of section 6000, which, as enacted, only
requires a "bona fide subscription list of paying subscribers." This issue was raised by the
. San Diego Transcript in In re San Diego Commerce, 40 Cal. App. 4th 1229 (1995). The
court flatly rejected the Transcript's argument and stated:
[T]here is no case authority whatsoever for the proposition
urged upon us by Transcript, that sections 6000 and 6008
must despite their differing language be read to contain the
same 'substantial distribution' requirement. What
Transcript truly requests is for this intermediate appellate
court to engage in judicial amendment of a legislative act,
because such an act is, in the view of Transcript, necessary
to achieve harmony with some underlying 'policy.' Such
judicial actions have been often criticized by appellate
courts themselves. We have no general power to rewrite
statutes to conform to some underlying 'policy.' As a rule,
there can be no intent in a statute not expressed in its
words; the intention of the Legislature must be determined
from the language of the statute.
San Diego Commerce at 1235, citing Woodland Joint Unified School Dist. v. Commission
on Professional Competence, 2 Cal. App. 4th 1429,1451 (1992).

La Prensa does not meet the requirements of either Government Code section 6000 or
6008. It is not printed and published in Chula Vista as required by Section 6000. Nor was
it established before 1923, which would make La Prensa eligible for the exemption of
Section 6006. Finally, La Prensa does not have its one principal office in the City.
However, nothing prohibits La Prensa from establishing itself in the City so that it may
meet the requirements of section 6008 and seeking court approval as a newspaper of
general circulation for the City at a later date.
CONCLUSION
The courts have strictly construed the provisions of Government Code sections 6000 and
6008, and have declined to read any additional requirements into the specific language of
the statute. Given the courts' construction of the relevant statutory provisions, there is
currently only one newspaper that qualifies as a newspaper Qf general circulation for the
City of Chula Vista, thus no bid process is required under Charter section 313. However,
should La Prensa establish at a later date that it meets the requirements of 6008 the
provisions of Charter section 313 would apply. Therefore, we conclude the City must go
out to bid if La Prensa establishes it meets the requirements of Government Code
section 6008.

BACKGROUND
In order to address cash flow variations that are projected to occur in the General Fund during
Fiscal Year 2007-08 due to the cyclical nature of some of our major revenue sources, it is
recommended that the City take advantage of the opportunity to borrow money on a short-
term basis at potentially no cost by issuing a Tax and Revenue Anticipation Note (TRANs)
through the pooled financing program sponsored by California Statewide Communities
Development Authority (CSCDA). A TRANs is recommended as an alternative to borrowing
from other City Funds.
4/5THS VOTE: YES D NO 0
CSCDA is a Joint Powers Authority formed by the League of California Cities and the
California State Association of Counties and has issued nearly $6 billion in TRANs serving
nearly ISO California local governments since the inception of the TRANs Program in 1993.
TRANs amounts have ranged from $235 million to as little as $100,000. The TRANs Program
saves both time and money when compared to stand-alone borrowings. The TRANs
borrowing is funded on or about July I of each year and is offered at tax exempt and taxable
interest rates, with 12 and 13 month maturity modes.

DISCUSSION
Many public agencies rely on property tax, sales tax and vehicle license fee revenue cash
flows to fund their day-to-day obligations. These revenues had been received on a fairly
consistent month-to-month basis throughout the year. However, beginning in fiscal year
2004-05, the State implemented the "Triple Flip" and the "VLF Swap" to pay for the
State's Economic Recovery Act bonds and to address the State's budget issues. Since the
implementation, the State has radically altered the timing of the cash flow of these
revenues to the City.
Prior to the "Triple Flip", the City had been receiving sales tax at a rate of 1% of taxable
sales. Beginning in fiscal year 2004-05, the City receives 0.75% of the 1% on a monthly
basis from the State. The remaining 0.25% is paid by the County in two equal
installments in January and May
The "VLF Swap" works similarly but with a greater impact to the City's cash flow. Prior
to the "VLF Swap", the City had been receiving directly from the State the 2% of value
Motor Vehicle License Fee. Beginning in fiscal year 2004-05, the City receives 0.65% of
the 2%. The remaining 1.35% is paid by the County in two equal installments in January
and May.
Below is a table to illustrate the "before and after" effects to the City's cash flow

This table demonstrates the effect of the new revenue distribution formula to the City.
Approximately 21 % of Sales Tax and more than 77% of VLF cash is received in two
installment payments paid in January and May of each year. Additionally, the City does
not receive its first large property tax apportionment until mid-December. This is not a
fiscal crisis concerning the amount of revenue the city receives. The issue is the timing
of the distribution of these revenues or the cash flow to the General Fund.
TRANs are the most common vehicle used by local government entities to obtain large
amounts of cash on a short-term basis, and are typically less expensive than internal
borrowing from other restricted Funds. The City of Chula Vista has issued TRANs in
previous fiscal years, the most recent being fiscal year 2006-07 in the amount of $9.7
million.
Basically, money is borrowed through the municipal market by issuing a one year note at
short-term tax exempt rates and the proceeds are invested until needed to cover shortfalls.
All money borrowed, plus interest is repaid near the end of the fiscal year from any
unrestricted revenues of the City. With the difference in the interest rate earned vs. paid,
there is often the opportunity to actually earn a small amount of arbitrage (net earnings
based on the difference in the interest rate paid vs. earned) on this type of borrowing.
Arbitrage is legal when issued in accordance with Federal tax regulations related to the
sizing and issuance of tax-exempt short-term notes.
The California Statewide Communities Development Authority (CSCDA), sponsored by
the League of California Cities and the California State Association of Counties, has
operated a pooled TRANs program for member agencies for several years. Since 1993,
CSCDA has issued nearly $6 billion in TRANs serving nearly 150 agencies. The pooled
concept offers significant savings through sharing the costs of issuance, a streamlined
process, and greater market access.
The experienced group of financial experts working on the program for fiscal year 2007-
08 include RBC Dain Rauscher as financial advisor, Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe as
bond counsel, and Lehman Brothers, Citigroup Global Markets, Banc of America
Securities, and E.J. De La Rosa & Co. as the underwriting team.
For additional information, we have included as Attachment A, TRANs Frequently
Asked Questions from the CSCDA website.
DECISION MAKER CONFLICT
Staff has reviewed the decision contemplated by this action and has determined that it is
not site specific and consequently the 500 foot rule found in California Code of
Regulations section 18704.2(a)(I) is not applicable to this decision.
FISCAL IMPACT
Our cash flow projections for FY07 -08 indicate that the General Fund could reach a
negative cash balance of $12.7 million in November 2007. Under current Federal tax
10-3
MAY 1,2007, Item-1[L
Page 4 of6
laws, the City may borrow on a tax-exempt basis an amount not to exceed the projected
maximum deficit plus a reasonable working capital reserve, which conservatively results
in a maximum legal borrowing amount of $22 million.
The estimated interest cost of the TRANs is $836,000 assuming a rate of 3.80%, and
$60,000 in issuance costs. Estimated revenue from investing the proceeds of the
borrowing until needed is conservatively projected to be at least equal to the cost of the
borrowing. Therefore, the net cost of the TRANs issue is estimated to be zero.
City funds currently invested in the State Treasurer's Local Agency Investment Fund
(LAIF) are eaming 5.214% as of March 31, 2007.

ATTACHMENT A
Tax and Revenue Anticipation Notes (TRANS)
Frequently Asked Questions
What are TRANs?
TRANs are Tax and Revenue Anticipation Notes, also known as TANs (Tax Anticipation
Notes) and RANs (Revenue Anticipation Notes.)
Why are TRANs issued?
TRANs are issued by local governments to finance short term cash flow deficits which
occur due to the irregular receipt of certain taxes and/or revenues, and the ongoing
requirement for regular disbursements of operating expenses.
What are the benefits if issuing TRANs?
There are two primary benefits of issuing TRANs. First, TRANs are an inexpensive
method of financing short-term cash shortfalls. Second, TRANs usually produce
additional income through arbitrage earnings.
What is arbitrage?
Arbitrage is a gain which occurs when the cost of borrowing funds is lower than
reinvestment earnings.
How do TRANs produce arbitrage earnings?
TRANs are issued at tax-exempt borrowing rates which are typically one to two
percentage points lower than available reinvestment rates.
Is it legal to earn arbitrage on TRANs?
Yes - provided the TRANs are issued in accordance with federal tax regulations relating
to the sizing and issuance of tax-exempt short-term notes.
How are TRANs issued?
TRANs are permitted under Government Code 953850 and are authorized when the
governing body adopts a resolution. Most local governments engage a bond attorney to
prepare documentation, and use the services of an investment professional for the
placement or underwriting of the notes.

Page 60f6
What are the advantages of issuing TRANs through the California Statewide
Communities Development Authority (CSCDA) Program?
The CSCDA program provides competitive costs of issuance, greater access to the
financial markets through a larger combined issuance, and a streamlined process for
issuing TRANs which saves California local governments' staff time. The CSCDA
Program also offers two maturity options; 12 and 13 month maturities.

NOW, THEREFORE, this Legislative Body hereby finds, determines, declares
and resolves as follows:
Section 1. Recitals. All the above recitals are true and correct.
Section 2. Authorization of Issuance. This Legislative Body hereby determines
to borrow solely for the purpose of anticipating taxes, income, revenue, cash receipts and other
moneys to be received by the Local Agency for the general fund of the Local Agency attributable
to the Repayment Fiscal Year, by the issuance of a note or notes, pursuant to the provisions of
Sections 53850 et seq. of the Act, designated the Local Agency's "2007 Tax and Revenue

Principal Amount thereof, to be dated the date of its delivery to the initial purchaser thereof, to
mature (without option of prior redemption) not more than 13 months thereafter on a date
indicated on the face thereof and determined in the Pricing Confirmation (the "Maturity Date"),
and to bear interest, payable on its Maturity Date (and if the Maturity Date is more than 12
months from the date of issuance, payable on the interim interest payment date set forth in the
OHS WEST:260148581.2

10-9
Pricing Confirmation) and computed upon the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve
3D-day months, or a 365 or 366 day year, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed, at a rate or
rates, if more than one Note is issued, not to exceed 12% per ammm as determined in the Pricing
Confirmation and indicated on the face of the Note (the "Note Rate"). If the Note as evidenced
and represented by the Series of Note Participations is secured in whole or in part by a Credit
Instrument or such Credit Instrument secures the Note in whole or in part and all principal of and
interest on the Note is not paid in full at maturity or if payment of principal and/or interest on the
Note is paid (in whole or in part) by a draw under, payment by or claim upon a Credit Instrument
which draw or claim is not fully reimbursed on such date, such Note shall become a Defaulted
Note (as defined in the Trust Agreement), and the unpaid portion thereof (including the interest
component, if applicable) thereof (or the portion (including the interest component, if applicable)
thereof with respect to which a Credit Instrument applies for which reimbursement on a draw,
payment or claim has not been fully made) shall be deemed outstanding and shall continue to
bear interest thereafter until paid at the Default Rate (as defined in the Trust Agreement). If the
Note as evidenced and represented by the Series of Note Participations is unsecured in whole or
in part and the Note is not fully paid at maturity, the unpaid portion thereof (or the portion
thereof to which no Credit Instrument applies which is unpaid) shall be deemed outstanding and
shall continue to bear interest thereafter until paid at the Default Rate. In each case set forth in
the preceding two sentences, the obligation of the Local Agency with respect to such Defaulted
Note or unpaid Note shall not be a debt or liability of the Local Agency prohibited by
Article XVI, Section 18 of the California Constitution and the Local Agency shall not be liable
thereon except to the extent of any available revenues attributable to the Repayment Fiscal Year,
as provided in Section 8 hereof. The percentage of the Note as evidenced and represented by the
Series of Note Participations to which a Credit Instrument, if any, applies (the "Secured
Percentage") shall be equal to the amount of the Credit Instrument divided by the aggregate
amount of unpaid principal of and interest on notes (or portions thereof) of all Issuers of Notes
comprising such Series of Note Participations, expressed as a percentage (but not greater than
100%) as of the maturity date. Both the principal of and interest on the Note shall be payable in
lawful money of the United States of America.
The Note shall be issued in corD unction with the note or notes of one or more
other Issuers as part of the Program and within the meaning of Section 53853 of the Act.
Anything in this Resolution to the contrary notwithstanding, the Pricing
Confirmation (defined below) may specify that a portion of the authorized Principal Amount of
the Note shall be issued as a taxable Note the interest on which is includable in the gross income
of the holder thereof for federal income tax purposes (a "Taxable Note"). In such event, the
Taxable Note shall be issued with an appropriate series designation and other terms reflecting
such taxability of interest income, including without limitation, a taxable Note Rate and a taxable
Default Rate; the term Note, and other terms as appropriate, shall be deemed to include or refer
to such Taxable Note; and the agreements, covenants and provisions set forth in this Resolution
to be performed by or on behalf of the Local Agency shall be for the equal and proportionate
benefit, security and protection of the holder of any Note without preference, priority or
distinction as to security or otherwise of any Note over and other Note.
Section 3. Form of Note. The Note shall be issued in fully registered form
without coupons and shall be substantially in the form and substance set forth in Exhibit A, as

an interest in the Note which shall be delivered to the Trustee) shall be sold to the Underwriter
pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Purchase Agreement. The form of the Purchase
Agreement, including the form of the Pricing Confirmation set forth as an Exhibit thereto (the
"Pricing Confirmation"), presented to this meeting is hereby approved. The authorized
representatives set forth in Section 21 hereof (the "Authorized Representatives") are each hereby
authorized and directed to execute and deliver the Purchase Agreement in substantially said
form, with such changes thereto as such Authorized Representative shall approve, such approval
to be conclusively evidenced by his or her execution and delivery thereof; provided, however,
that the Note Rate shall not exceed 12% per annum, and that the Local Agency's pro rata share
of Underwriter's discount on the Note, when added to the Local Agency's share of the costs of
issuance of the Note Participations, shall not exceed 1.0% of the Principal Amount of the Note
and the Principal Amount shall not exceed the Maximum Amount of Borrowing. Delivery of an
executed copy of the Pricing Confirmation by fax or telecopy shall be deemed effective
execution and delivery for all purposes.
Section S. Program ADDroval. The Note shall be combined with notes of other
Issuers into a Series as set forth in the Preliminary Official Statement, hereinafter mentioned, and
shall be sold simultaneously with such other notes of that Series supported by the Credit
Instrument (if any) referred to in the Pricing Confirmation, and shall be evidenced and
represented by the Note Participations which shall evidence and represent proportionate,
undivided interests in the Note in the proportion that the face amount of the Note bears to the
total aggregate face amount of the Note and the notes issued by other Issuers which the Series of
Note Participations represent. Such Note Participations may be delivered in book-entry form.
The forms of Trust Agreement and alternative general types and forms of Credit
Agreements, if any, presented to this meeting are hereby approved, and the Authorized
Representative is hereby authorized and directed to execute and deliver the Trust Agreement and
a Credit Agreement, if applicable, which shall be identified in the Pricing Confirmation, in

Representative of the Pricing Confirmation), with such changes therein as said officer shall
require or approve, such approval of this Legislative Body and such officer to be conclusively
evidenced by the execution of the Trust Agreement and the Credit Agreement, if any. A
description of this undertaking is set forth in the Preliminary Official Statement and will also be
set forth in the Final Official Statement. The Authorized Representative is hereby authorized and
directed to comply with and carry out all of the provisions of the Trust Agreement with respect
to continuing disclosure; provided however, that failure of the Local Agency to comply with the
Continuing Disclosure Agreement, as defined in Article II of the Trust Agreement, shall not be
considered an Event of Default hereunder. Any Credit Agreement identified in the Pricing
Confirmation but not at this time before the Legislative Body shall include reasonable and
customary terms and provisions relating to fees, increased costs of the Credit Provider payable
by the Local Agency, negative and affirmation covenants of the Local Agency and events of
default. The form of the Preliminary Official Statement presented to this meeting is hereby

approved, and the Financial Advisor and the Underwriter are hereby authorized and directed to
cause to be mailed to prospective bidders the Preliminary Official Statement in connection with
the offering and sale of the Note Participations.
Anyone of the Authorized Representatives of the Local Agency is hereby
authorized and directed to provide the Financial Advisor and the Underwriter with such
information relating to the Local Agency as they shall reasonably request for inclusion in the
Preliminary Official Statement and Official Statement. Upon inclusion of the information
relating to the Local Agency therein, the Preliminary Official Statement is, except for certain
omissions permitted by Rule ISc2-12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
"Rule"), hereby deemed final within the meaning of the Rule; provided that no representation is
made as to the information contained in the Preliminary Official Statement relating to the other
Issuers or any Credit Provider. If, at any time prior to the end of the underwriting period, as
defined in the Rule, any event occurs as a result of which the information contained in the
Preliminary Official Statement relating to the Local Agency might include an untrue statement of
a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light
of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the Local Agency shall
promptly notify the Financial Advisor and the Underwriter. The Authority is hereby authorized
and directed, at or after the time of the sale of any Series of Note Participations, for and in the
name and on behalf of the Local Agency, to execute a final Official Statement in substantially
the form of the Preliminary Official Statement presented to this meeting, with such additions
thereto or changes therein as the Authority may approve, such approval to be conclusively
evidenced by the execution and delivery thereof.
The Trustee is authorized and directed to execute Note Participations on behalf of
the Local Agency pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Trust Agreement, in the
aggregate principal amount specified in the Trust Agreement, and substantially in the form and
otherwise containing the provisions set forth in the form of the Note Participations contained in
the Trust Agreement. When so executed, the Note Participations shall be delivered by the
Trustee to the purchaser upon payment of the purchase price thereof, pursuant to the terms of the
Trust Agreement.
Subject to Section 8 hereof, the Local Agency hereby agrees that if the Note as
evidenced and represented by the Series of Note Participations shall become a Defaulted Note,
the unpaid portion (including the interest component, if applicable) thereof or the portion
(including the interest component, if applicable) to which a Credit Instrument applies for which
full reimbursement on a draw, payment or claim has not been made by the Maturity Date shall be
deemed outstanding and shall not be deemed to be paid until (i) any Credit Provider providing a
Credit Instrument with respect to the Series of Note Participations, and therefore, if applicable,
all or a portion of the Local Agency's Note, if any, has been reimbursed for any drawings,
payments or claims made under or from the Credit Instrument with respect to the Note, including
interest accrued thereon, as provided therein and in the applicable Credit Agreement, and, (ii) the
holders of the Series of the Note Participations which evidence and represent the Note are paid
the full principal amount represented by the unsecured portion of the Note plus interest accrued
thereon (calculated at the Default Rate) to the date of deposit of such aggregate required amount
with the Trustee. For purposes of clause (ii) of the preceding sentence, holders of the Series of
OHS WEsr260148581.2

10-12
Note Participations will be deemed to have received such principal amount upon deposit of such
moneys with the Trustee.
The Local Agency agrees to payor cause to be paid, in addition to the amounts
payable under the Note, any fees or expenses of the Trustee and, to the extent permitted by law,
if the Local Agency's Note as evidenced and represented by the Series of Note Participations is
secured in whole or in part by a Credit Instrument, any Predefault Obligations and
Reimbursement Obligations (to the extent not payable under the Note), (i) arising out of an
"Event of Default" hereunder (or pursuant to Section 7 hereof) or (ii) arising out of any other
event (other than an event arising solely as a result of or otherwise attributable to a default by
any other Issuer). In the case described in (ii) above with respect to Predefault Obligations, the
Local Agency shall owe only the percentage of such fees, expenses and Predefault Obligations
equal to the ratio of the principal amount of its Note over the aggregate principal amounts of all
notes, including the Note, of the Series of which the Note is a part, at the time of original
issuance of such Series. Such additional amounts will be paid by the Local Agency within
twenty-five (25) days of receipt by the Local Agency ofa bill therefor from the Trustee.
Section 6. No Joint Oblie:ation; Owners' Rie:hts. The Note shall be marketed
and sold simultaneously with the notes of other Issuers and shall be aggregated and combined
with notes of other Issuers participating in the Program into a Series of Note Participations
evidencing and representing an interest in several, and not joint, obligations of each Issuer. The
obligation of the Local Agency to Owners is a several and not a joint obligation and is strictly
limited to the Local Agency's repayment obligation under this Resolution and the Note, as
evidenced and represented by such Series of Note Participations.
Owners of Note Participations, to the extent of their interest in the Note, and the
Credit Provider, if any, shall be treated as owners of the Note and shall be entitled to all the
rights and security thereof in accordance with the Trust Agreement; including the right to enforce
the obligations and covenants contained in this Resolution and the Note. The Local Agency
hereby recognizes the right of the Owners and the Credit Provider, if any, acting directly or
through the Trustee to enforce the obligations and covenants contained in the Note, this
Resolution and the Trust Agreement. The Local Agency shall be directly obligated to each
Owner for the principal and interest payments on the Note evidenced and represented by the
Note Participations without any right of counterclaim or offset arising out of any act or failure to
act on the part of the Trustee.
Section 7. Disposition of Proceeds of Note. The moneys received from the sale
of the Note allocable to the Local Agency's share of the costs of issuance (which shall include
any issuance fees in connection with a Credit Instrument applicable to the Note, if any) shall be
deposited in the Costs of Issuance Fund held and invested by the Trustee under the Trust
Agreement and expended on costs of issuance as provided in the Trust Agreement. The moneys
received from the sale of the Note (net of the Local Agency's share of the costs of issuance) shall
be deposited in the Local Agency's Proceeds Subaccount within the Proceeds Fund hereby
authorized to be created pursuant to, and held and invested by the Trustee under, the Trust
Agreement for the Local Agency and said moneys may be used and expended by the Local
Agency for any purpose for which it is authorized to expend funds upon requisition from the
OHS WEST:260148581.2

10-13
Proceeds Subaccount as specified in the Trust Agreement. Amounts in the Proceeds Subaccount
are hereby pledged to the payment of the Note.
The Trustee will not create subaccounts within the Proceeds Fund, but will keep
records to account separately for proceeds of the Note Participations allocable to the Local
Agency's Note on deposit in the Proceeds Fund which shall constitute the Local Agency's
Proceeds Subaccount.
Section 8. Source of Payment. The principal amount of the Note, together with
the interest thereon, shall be payable from taxes, income, revenue (including, but not limited to,
revenue from the state and federal governments), cash receipts and other moneys which are
received or held by the Local Agency for the general fund of the Local Agency and are
attributable to the Repayment Fiscal Year and which are available for payment thereof. As
security for the payment of the principal of and interest on the Note, the Local Agency hereby
pledges certain Unrestricted Revenues (as hereinafter provided, the "Pledged Revenues") which
are received or held by the Local Agency for the general fund of the Local Agency and are
attributable to the Repayment Fiscal Year, and the principal of the Note and the interest thereon
shall constitute a first lien and charge thereon and shall be payable from the first moneys
recei ved by the Local Agency from such Pledged Revenues, and, to the extent not so paid, shall
be paid from any other taxes, income, revenue, cash receipts and other moneys of the Local
Agency lawfully available therefor (all as provided for in Sections 53856 and 53857 of the Act).
The term "Unrestricted Revenues" shall mean all taxes, income, revenue (including, but not
limited to, revenue from the state and federal governments), cash receipts, and other moneys,
intended as receipts for the general fund of the Local Agency attributable to the Repayment
Fiscal Year and which are generally available for the payment of current expenses and other
obligations of the Local Agency. The Noteholders, Owners and Credit Provider shall have a first
lien and charge on such Unrestricted Revenues as herein provided which are received or held by
the Local Agency and are attributable to the Repayment Fiscal Year.
In order to effect the pledge referenced in the preceding paragraph, the Local
Agency hereby agrees and covenants to establish and maintain a special account within the Local
Agency's general fund to be designated the "2007 Tax and Revenue Anticipation Note Payment
Account" (the "Payment Account") and further agrees and covenants to maintain the Payment
Account until the payment of the principal of the Note and the interest thereon. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if the Local Agency elects to have Note proceeds invested in Permitted
Investments to be held by the Trustee pursuant to the Pricing Confirmation, a subaccount of the
Payment Account (the "Payment Subaccount") shall be established for the Local Agency under
the Trust Agreement and proceeds credited to such account shall be pledged to the payment of
the Note. The Trustee need not create a subaccount, but may keep a record to account separately
for proceeds of the Note so held and invested by the Trustee which record shall constitute the
Local Agency's Proceeds Subaccount. Transfers from the Payment Subaccount shall be made in
accordance with the Trust Agreement. The Local Agency agrees to transfer to and deposit in the
Payment Account the first amounts received in the months specified in the Pricing Confirmation
as Repayment Months (each individual month a "Repayment Month" and collectively
"Repayment Months") (and any amounts received thereafter attributable to Repayment Fiscal
Year) until the amount on deposit in the Payment Account, together with the amount, if any, on
deposit in the Payment Subaccount, and taking into consideration anticipated investment
OHS WEsT260\48581.2

10-14
earnings thereon to be received by the Maturity Date, is equal in the respective Repayment
Months identified in the Pricing Confirmation to the percentage of the principal and interest due
on the Note specified in the Pricing Confirmation. In making such transfer and deposit, the
Local Agency shall not be required to physically segregate the amounts to be transferred to and
deposited in the Payment Account from the Local Agency's other general fund moneys, but,
notwithstanding any commingling of funds for investment or other purposes, the amounts
required to be transferred to and deposited in the Payment Account shall nevertheless be subject
to the lien and charge created herein.
Anyone of the Authorized Representatives of the Local Agency is hereby
authorized to approve the determination of the Repayment Months and percentages of the
principal and interest due on the Note required to be on deposit in the Payment Account and/or
the Payment Subaccount in each Repayment Month, all as specified in the Pricing Confirmation,
by executing and delivering the Pricing Confirmation, such execution and delivery to be
conclusive evidence of approval by this Legislative Body and such Authorized Representative;
provided, however, that the maximum number of Repayment Months shall be six and the
maximum amount of Pledged Revenues required to be deposited in each Repayment Month shall
not exceed fifty percent (50%) of the aggregate principal and interest due on the Note. In the
event on the day in each such Repayment Month that a deposit to the Payment Account is
required to be made, the Local Agency has not received sufficient umestricted revenues to
permit the deposit into the Payment Account of the full amount of Pledged Revenues to be
deposited in the Payment Account from said umestricted revenues in said month, then the
amount of any deficiency shall be satisfied and made up from any other moneys of the Local
Agency lawfully available for the payment of the principal of the Note and the interest thereon,
as and when such other moneys are received or are otherwise legally available.
Any moneys placed in the Payment Account or the Payment Subaccount shall be
for the benefit of (i) the holder of the Note and the owner of the Note and (ii) (to the extent
provided in the Trust Agreement) the Credit Provider, if any. The moneys in the Payment
Account and the Payment Subaccount shall be applied only for the purposes for which such
Accounts are created until the principal of the Note and all interest thereon are paid or until
provision has been made for the payment of the principal of the Note at maturity with interest to
maturity (in accordance with the requirements for defeasance of the Note Participations as set
forth in the Trust Agreement) and, if applicable, (to the extent provided in the Trust Agreement
and, if applicable, the Credit Agreement) the payment of all Predefault Obligations and
Reimbursement Obligations owing to the Credit Provider.
The Local Agency hereby directs the Trustee to transfer on the Note Payment
Deposit Date (as defined in the Trust Agreement), any moneys in the Payment Subaccount to the
Note Participation Payment Fund (as defined in the Trust Agreement). In addition, on the Note
Payment Deposit Date, the moneys in the Payment Account shall be transferred by the Local
Agency to the Trustee, to the extent necessary (after crediting any transfer pursuant to the
preceding sentence), to pay the principal of and/or interest on the Note, to make payments to a
Swap Provider, if any, as defined in the Trust Agreement, pursuant to a Swap Agreement, if any,
as defined in the Trust Agreement, or to reimburse the Credit Provider for payments made under
or pursuant to the Credit Instrument. In the event that moneys in the Payment Account and/or
the Payment Subaccount are insufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the Note in full
OHS WEST:260148581.2
9
10-15
when due, such moneys shall be applied in the following priority: first to pay interest on the
Note; second to pay principal of the Note; third to reimburse the Credit Provider for payment, if
any, of interest with respect to the Note; fourth to reimburse the Credit Provider for payment, if
any, of principal with respect to the Note; and fifth to pay any Reimbursement Obligations of the
Local Agency and any of the Local Agency's pro rata share of Predefault Obligations owing to
the Credit Provider. Any moneys remaining in or accruing to the Payment Account and/or the
Payment Subaccount after the principal of the Note and the interest thereon and any Predefault
Obligations and Reimbursement Obligations, if applicable, have been paid, or provision for such
payment has been made, shall be transferred to the general fund of the Local Agency, subject to
any other disposition required by the Trust Agreement, or, if applicable, the Credit Agreement.
Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve the Local Agency from its obligation to pay its Note in
full on the Maturity Date.
Moneys in the Proceeds Subaccount and in the Payment Subaccount shall be
invested by the Trustee pursuant to the Trust Agreement as directed by the Local Agency in
Permitted Investments as described in and under the terms of the Trust Agreement. Any such
investment by the Trustee shall be for the account and risk of the Local Agency, and the Local
Agency shall not be deemed to be relieved of any of its obligations with respect to the Note, the
Predefault Obligations or Reimbursement Obligations, if any, by reason of such investment of
the moneys in its Proceeds Subaccount or the Payment Subaccount.
The Local Agency shall promptly file with the Trustee and the Credit Provider, if
any, such financial reports at the times and in the forms required by the Trust Agreement. At the
written request of the Credit Provider, if any, the Local Agency shall, within ten (10) Business
Days following the receipt of such written request, file such report or reports to evidence the
transfer to and deposit in the Payment Account required by this Section 8 and provide such
additional financial information as may be required by the Credit Provider, if any.
Section 9. Execution of Note. Anyone of the Authorized Representatives of
the Local Agency or any other officer designated by the Legislative Body shall be authorized to
execute the Note by manual or facsimile signature and the Secretary or Clerk of the Legislative
Body of the Local Agency or any duly appointed assistant thereto shall be authorized to
countersign the Note by manual or facsimile signature. Said officers of the Local Agency are
hereby authorized to cause the blank spaces of the Note to be filled in as may be appropriate
pursuant to the Pricing Confirmation. Said officers are hereby authorized and directed to cause
the Trustee, as registrar and authenticating agent, to accept delivery of the Note pursuant to the
terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement and Trust Agreement. In case any officer
whose signature shall appear on any Note shall cease to be such officer before the delivery of
such Note, such signature shall nevertheless be valid and sufficient for all purposes, the same as
if such officer had remained in office until delivery. The Note need not bear the seal of the Local
Agency, if any.
Section 10. Representations and Covenants of the Local A!!encv.
The Local Agency makes the following representations for the benefit of the
holder of the note, the owners of the Note Participations and the Credit Provider, ifany.

compliance with the provisions hereof and thereof will not conflict with or violate any law,
administrative regulation, court decree, resolution, charter, by-laws or other agreement to which
the Local Agency is subject or by which it is bound.
(D) Except as may be required under blue sky or other securities laws of any
state or Section 3(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, there is no consent, approval, authorization

Agency shall obtain or perform prior to or upon the issuance of the Note.
(E) The Local Agency has (or will have prior to the issuance of the Note)
duly, regularly and properly adopted a preliminary budget for the Repayment Fiscal Year setting

11
10-17
operation for the period covered thereby. Except as has been disclosed to the Financial Advisor
and the Underwriter and the Credit Provider, if any, there has been no change in the financial
condition of the Local Agency since the date of such audited financial statements that will in the
reasonable opinion of the Local Agency materially impair its ability to perform its obligations
under this Resolution and the Note. The Local Agency agrees to furnish to the Financial
Advisor, the Underwriter, the Authority, the Trustee and the Credit Provider, if any, promptly,
from time to time, such information regarding the operations, financial condition and property of
the Local Agency as such party may reasonably request.

equity, before or by any court, arbitrator, governmental or other board, body or official, pending
or, to the best knowledge of the Local Agency, threatened against or affecting the Local Agency

connection with the Note, the Purchase Agreement, the Trust Agreement, the Credit Agreement,
if any, or this Resolution, or seeking to prohibit, restrain or enjoin the execution, delivery or

ruling or finding would have a materially adverse effect on the Local Agency's financial

presently conducted or as proposed or contemplated to be conducted, or would materially
adversely affect the validity or enforceability of, or the authority or ability of the Local Agency
to perform its obligations under, the Note, the Purchase Agreement, the Trust Agreement, the
Credit Agreement, if any, or this Resolution.
(1) Upon issuance of the Note and execution of the Purchase Contract, this
Resolution, the Purchase Contract and the Note will constitute legal, valid and binding
agreements of the Local Agency, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, except

outstanding, the Local Agency will not create or suffer to be created any pledge of or lien on the
Note other than the pledge and lien of the Trust Agreement.
Section 11. Tax Covenants. The Local Agency will not take any action or fail
to take any action if such action or failure to take such action would adversely affect the
exclusion from gross income of the interest payable on the Note under Section 103 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code"). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
the Local Agency will not make any use of the proceeds of the Note or any other funds of the
Local Agency which would cause the Note to be an "arbitrage bond" within the meaning of
Section 148 of the Code, a "private activity bond" within the meaning of Section 141(a) of the
Code, or an obligation the interest on which is subject to federal income taxation because it is
"federally guaranteed" as provided in Section 149(b) of the Code. The Local Agency, with

Code and all regulations of the United States Department of the Treasury issued or applicable
thereunder to the extent that such requirements are, at the time, applicable and in effect.

exempt obligations (including any tax-exempt leases, but excluding private activity bonds),
issued and to be issued by the Local Agency during calendar year 2007, including the Note, is
not reasonably expected to exceed $5,000,000; or, in the alternative, (ii) covenants that the
Local Agency will take all legally permissible steps necessary to ensure that all of the gross
proceeds of the Note will be expended no later than the day that is six months after the date of
issuance of the Note so as to satisfy the requirements of Section 148(f)(4)(B) of the Code.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Resolution to the contrary, upon the
Local Agency's failure to observe, or refusal to comply with, the covenants contained in this
Section II, no one other than the holders or former holders of the Note, the Owners or the
Trustee on their behalf shall be entitled to exercise any right or remedy under this Resolution on
the basis of the Local Agency's failure to observe, or refusal to comply with, such covenants.
The covenants contained in this Section II shall survive the payment of the Note.
The provisions of this Section II shall not apply to a Taxable Note.

intervene in the proceedings prior to the expiration of such 30 days to protect its
and the Owners' interests;
(e) The Local Agency files a petItIOn in voluntary bankruptcy or

Event of Default hereunder, and the Credit Provider's prior consent shall be required to any
remedial action proposed to be taken by the Trustee hereunder.
If the Credit Provider is not reimbursed for any drawing, payment or claim, as

BACKGROUND
At 2:00 p.m. on Thursday, January 25, 2007 the Director of General Services received sealed
bids for the "Fuel Tank Replacement at the John Lippitt Public Works Center, in the City of
Chula Vista, CA (GG-187)" project. The work consists of removal and replacement of two
20,000-gallon existing fuel tanks located at the John Lippitt Public Works Center including
demolition, labor, material, equipment and transportation necessary to complete the project.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The Environmental Review Coordinator has reviewed the proposed project for compliance with
the California Environmental Quality Act and has determined that the project qualifies for a
Class 2 categorical exemption pursuant to Section 15302 (Replacement or Reconstruction) ofthe
State CEQA Guidelines. Thus, no further environmental review is necessary.
RECOMMENDATION
Council adopt resolution rejecting bids for the "Fuel Tank Replacement at the John Lippitt
Public Works Center, in the City ofChula Vista, CA (GG-187)" project.
BOARDS/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
Not applicable.
DISCUSSION
The project provides for the removal and replacement of two 20,000-gallon fuel tanks below
ground at the John Lippitt Public Works Center. There have been numerous repairs to the
existing fuel tanks that were installed during the original construction of the former SDG&E
facility.

The engineering services of Gary Engineering, Inc. were retained for the preparation of the
project's scope of work and plans.
Staff advertised the project on January 5, 2007. Staffreceived and opened bids on January 25,
2007 from nine (9) contractors to perform the work as follows (listed in order of base bid
amount):
Contractor Base Bid
Ahrens Corporation - San Diego, CA $398,106.00
Jenal Engineering - Lemon Grove, CA $426,463.00
JEM Industries - Tustin, CA $454,289.00
Insight Environmental, Engineering & Construction, Inc. - Diamond Bar, CA $459,786.00
Western Pump, Inc. - San Diego, CA $498,993.00
Jauregui & Culver, Inc. - Escondido, CA $499,995.74
Angus Asphalt, Inc. - Santee, CA $507,842.76
California Hazardous Services, Inc. - Santa Ana, CA $544,938.00
Fleming Environmental, Inc. - Buena Park,CA $549,750.00
The low bid by Ahrens Corporation is higher than the project's range of $295,000 to $310,000.
Based on the bids received, there are not enough funds in the project to move forward. At this
time, staff is recommending to redesign the below ground fuel tanks with above ground fuel
tanks. Gary Engineering recommends not placing the fuel tanks below ground due to the inherent
maintenance and repairs associated with this type of installation. Gary Engineering has made a
strong recommendation to place the fuel tanks above ground for ease of repairs and maintenance
and a reduction in installation costs. Upon confirmation and availability of funds, the project will
be re-advertised and re-bid with the above ground design.
DECISION MAKER CONFLICT
Staff has reviewed the property holdings of the City Council and has found no property holdings
within 500 feet ofthe boundaries of the property, which is the subject of this action.
FISCAL IMPACT
There will be minor staff costs to re-bid the project.

The City has been contracting with Mercer Health and Benefits (formerly Marsh Risk &
Insurance Services) since July 2002 to provide benefits brokering and consulting services.

City employ the services of the most innovative and proactive firm to assist the City in
"state-of-the-art" plan design changes, alternative funding arrangements, and long-term
cost control. A Request for Proposal (RFP) for broker/consultant services was issued.
Seven proposals were received and evaluated. Based on this evaluation, Barney and
Barney LLC was recommended to be retained as the broker of record/consultant for the
City's various employee benefit programs.
RECOMMENDATION:
That Council adopts the resolution.

DISCUSSION:
The City has been contracting with Mercer Health and Benefits (formerly Marsh Risk &
Insurance Services) since July 2002 to provide benefits brokering and consulting services.
With the rapidly changing area of employee benefits, it is of increasing importance that the
City employ the services of the most innovative and proactive firm to assist the City in
"state-of-the-art" plan design changes, alternative funding arrangements, and long-term
cost control. A Request for Proposal (RFP) for broker/consultant services was issued.
Seven proposals were received and evaluated by a committee consisting of three Human
Resources staff from the City of Chula Vista and a benefit professional from the County of
San Diego. Criteria used in evaluating the firms included: 1) specialized experience and
technical competence; 2) method to accomplish the work; 3) expertise and strength of key
personnel; and 4) compensation. The Selection Committee narrowed the field of
candidates to five finalist firms. The five selected firms were invited to an oral interview.
Reference checks were completed and on the basis of the Cornmittee's evaluation, Barney
& Barney LLC was recommended to be retained as the broker of record/consultant for the
City's various employee benefit programs.

Barney & Barney LLC is a California Limited Liability Corporation. It is privately held firm
with extensive experience working with the public sector in San Diego County for almost
100 years. The Better Business Bureau recognized their expertise and integrity by
awarding the Torch Award for Marketplace Ethics, and another award called the Business
Integrity Award. Barney & Barney LLC is committed to deliver services that provide
proactive innovation, aggressive and effective advocacy, responsive and personal service,
cost-effective solutions and sound advice to better serve the needs of the City.
The scope of the work to be performed by Barney & Barney LLC is outlined in the attached
agreement.
DECISION MAKER CONFLICTS: Not applicable
Staff has reviewed the decision contemplated by this action and has determined that it is
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.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Barney & Barney LLC will receive its compensation for all broke ring and consulting
services provided through commission arrangements with the insurance providers.
Brokerage commissions are currently factored into all benefit premiums. The commission
basis gives us unlimited access to the expert knowledge base and support needed to keep
up with the rapidly changing federal and state regulations. Since insurance providers pay
the broker/consultant commissions, a commission-based compensation is more cost-
effective to the City.
The commission structure will be established and agreed upon by the City and Barney &
Barney LLC. Barney & Barney LLC will submit to the City, a quarterly statement outlining
commissions received and services performed during the reporting period. At the start of
each plan year, the City will designate certain areas of importance that Barney & Barney's
performance will be judged on. If they do not meet the City's expectations, they will refund
a portion of their compensation up to a maximum of 20% of compensation for that year.

a. Local Ownership: All of our resources are right here in San Diego immediately available to the City of Chula Vista. Our
mission is to serve San Diego, not to answer to faraway stockholders with faraway resources.

with health care providers such as the Sharp, Scripps, Tri-City and Palomar-Pomerado Health Systems and Kaiser in a

both employers and their employees with regard to obtaining the best possible benefits for the least short and long term

problems as our own. In addition, we are dedicated to removing as much of the administrative burden associated with
the benefits program from the shoulders of our clients and their employees.

client relationships. Our clients do not perceive us as external consultants, but rather long-standing friends and members

. Our Employee Benefits Department is San Diego's largest with 7 Principals (owners) and 65 Associates who are
responsible for over $325 million in employee benefits premiums, claims and retirement plans representing over
125,000 employees and their families.
We have grown up with San Diego and enjoy a rich heritage of meeting the demands of changing market conditions and
having the foresight to understand the impact of those changes. A highly accomplished team of specialists is committed to
developing and implementing employee benefits programs that are tailored to the unique objectives of each client with special
emphasis on the lowest possible cost for the highest level of benefits.
6.2.3 Specialized Experience
Describe Proposer's experience and qualifications as they pertain to the City's specific objectives outlined in Section
3.0 of this request.
Barney & Barney added employee benefit consulting and brokerage services in 1952. Since that time we have assisted
employers of every size and have grown to be the largest employee benefits brokerlconsultant in San Diego County.
The core values of our Employee Benefits Department are:
. Technical Excellence - The insurance business is extremely complex requiring knowledge of benefit designs,
underwriting, claims processing, experience report interpretation, funding alternatives, communications skills, federal and
state legislation and regulations, and insurance markets. Barney & Bamey expects its associates to pursue the highest
levels of excellence and education in every area of their field of expertise. Our commitment to ongoing education is
supported by our in-house training program, Barney & Barney University, which offers our associates classes on a broad
range of informational and technical topics. We also provide a wide range of seminars throughout the year to our clients
and associates dealing with legislative and industry issues and regulations.
. Attention to Oetail- The complexity of employee benefits programs requires a keen eye to ensure the smallest details are
accurate. Contracts, employee communications, experience reports, legislative compliance, renewal calculations must be
concise, thorough and accurate; otherwise, employees may not have accurate understanding of their benefits, and
employers may be financially at risk for claims or litigation.
. Aggressive, Effective Advocacy - Ultimately, Barney & Barney is retained to be an aggressive, effective advocate for both
employers and their employees with regard to obtaining the best possible benefits for the least short and long term cost.
This also includes effective advocacy for employees when they have problems with claims or obtaining the best possible
care from health care providers, or merely assisting them with understanding their benefits.
. Responsive, Personal Service - When an employer or employee contacts us for assistance, they generally need
immediate help. We believe it is our personal responsibility to respond rapidly and to adopt our client's problems as our
own. Our clients place their trust in us to resolve any and every issue as if it were our own problem, no matter how small
and no matter when the problem arises. In addition, we are dedicated to removing as much of the administrative burden
associated with the benefits program from the shoulders of our clients and their employees.

. Proactive, Creative Innovation - We are the experts in the employee benefits business. It is our responsibility to
understand our clients' unique benefits goais and objectives, to anticipate their needs and requirements, and to create
and develop creative, innovative solutions to achieve our clients' goals.
. Integrity - Integrity is so much more than mere honesty. It is a personal commitment to be personaliy invested in City of
Chula Vista's employee benefits program so that City of Chula Vista and its employees can trust that Barney & Barney
will always put City of Chula Vista's interests first and that the Barney & Barney team will strive to provide to City of Chula
Vista the most comprehensive benefits and services at the lowest short and long term price.
Consultant Services:
Barney & Barney Is the market leader in developing creative, innovative plan designs for each component of an employer's
benefits program. This must be done with great sensitivity for both protecting employees and staying within an employer's
budget. Our principal objectives include:
. Providing financial protection against significant life issues from large medical expenses to employee death or disability,
. Enhancing freedom of patient choice of providers,
. Protecting patient access to high quality, medically necessary health care services, and
. Creating a program that is affordable in both the short and long term for the employees and the employer.
Strategic Planning is a continuing process of working with employee organizations, management and joint labor-management
insurance committees.
2. Administration:
One of our most important roles is to reduce as much as possible the burden of administration from our clients' human
resources departments. This includes establishing internet-based administration and enrollment systems to merely helping
employees with their questions on their benefits programs. In this increasingly challenging environment, we will become an
integral component of the City's Human Resources team.
3. Experience Reports:
Experience reports from health plans are created for the benefit of the health plans rather than employers and employees. We
re-engineer experience reports to be truly useful in the understanding and management of the employee benefits programs.
4. Proactive advice on plan design and funding:
In addition to creating effective plan designs as discussed above, virtually all of our major clients have implemented alternate
funding methods for some of their benefits programs. This includes minimum premium and selHunded arrangements. We
assist in the development of reports, reserves, funding rates and administrative systems for each of these arrangements.
5. Employee Surveys:
Barney & Barney obtains information from employees through Open Enrollment meetings, employee surveys and working
closely. with the leadership of employee organizations and unions. This is invaluable in developing strategic plans and
implementing effective benefits programs.

Page 6
-,..'-..-.__..,..,.-.'..-.."..,....:,.,':,..-..,.....,-
- "-. -'-~--_.. -'-.. -~,.'~-~.--=--,--
6. Communications:
The information provided by health plans and insurance companies is often so voluminous that it is Incomprehensibie for
employees. Barney & Barney drafts special materials for new employees and for open enrollment that are concise,
comprehensive and easily understood so that employees truly understand and appreciate their benefits. In addition, we prefer
to conduct open enrollment meetings rather than insurance company salespersons so that the employees have a good
understanding of their benefits and so that we can receive feedback to improve the entire benefits programs. In addition, we
arrange annual Health Fairs so that employees can meet and ask questions of their employee benefits vendors and even
health care providers like Kaiser or Sharp Rees-Stealy Medical Group.
7. Collective Bargaining and Insurance Committee Involvement:
This is a particular area of expertise for Barney & Barney. We have earned the highest level of trust from both management
and employee organizations in providing assistance and education on the benefits programs. We understand how important It
is to be forthright and honest in all our communications in negotiations and regular insurance committee meetings. We have
earned the trust of the labor unions at San Diego City Schools; County of San Diego; City of San Marcos; Grossmont, La
Mesa-Spring Valley, Poway, Vista and many other school districts. We look forward to working with the City's Insurance
Committee to enhance your benefits programs.
8. Review booklets and contracts:
Most of the materials prepared by insurance companies and health plans contain errors that can adversely affect the
employees or the employer. This is a critical service that we provide for all our clients.
9. Benefits Fairs and Wellness Programs:
Barney & Barney is strongly committed to implementing effective Wellness Programs. That is one of the only ways to reduce
the demand for increasingly expensive health care services. One example is the program that we designed for La Mesa-
Spring Valley School District. In 2006, employees lost 2,000 pounds-one ton as a result of the innovative program that we
designed. This has improved the health and productivity of the employees, and will undoubtediy reduce health care costs.
10. 11.& 13: Legislative Assistance:
The employee benefits field continues to change and evolve at a rapid pace. Barney & Bamey devotes considerable
resources to keep abreast of this changing field. We would hope to meet with the Insurance Committee and the Human
Resources Department on a regular basis to educate all about potential and implemented changes in federal, state and IRS
regulations.
In addition, we actually prepare sample forms and communications pieces for compliance. We regularly publish newsletters on
trends and new legislation. We also conduct seminars with outside experts for our clients on a variety of topics related to
employee benefits. We also will provide advice and assistance with understanding and developing the materials required to
comply with I RC Section 125 discrimination tests for your different Section 125 plans.
BARNEY&BARNEY~
Page 7
12. Assistance with claims:
We are the experts in employee benefits. We stand ready to assist employees directly or to assist the HR staff with claims
problems. All the members of our team have a great deal of experience in navigating the insurance industry bureaucracy.
Ultimately, these programs are for the benefit of the City's employees and their dependents. It is our responsibility to make
certain that the tremendous investment made by the City in these benefits are appreciated and understood by everyone. We
take this responsibility very seriously with rapid, personal selVice.
Broker SelVices:
All of the components of the selVices in this section are at the core of what we do. We have superb relationships with every
health plan and insurance carrier actively providing benefits in San Diego County. With the largest book of business in San
Diego County, we have the clout to obtain the most favorable package of benefits and premium rates and to obtain special
benefits that are not otherwise available.
We create and distribute Requests for Proposals to all viable providers of benefits and then prepare an in-depth analysis of
the proposals that is comprehensive and yet as concise and clear as possible so that the City and its employee organizations
can make the very best decision for its employees. However, this is just the beginning of our work. We then walk with the City
and its employees each step of the way so that every aspect of the implementation of the programs is as smooth as possible.
Specific SelVices and Requirements:
We understand that virtually all of the City's benefits program contracts expire December 31, 2007. We are eager to get
started on the entire marketing process including strategic planning with the City and the Insurance Committee. We will be
prepared with all analyses before August 15 so that there is sufficient time to prepare for and conduct the annual Open
Enrollment meetings.
6.2.4 Proposed Method to Accomplish the Work
Describe the Proposer's strategy and technique to meet the City's needs as outlined in Section 3.0. Explain the
method to market the insurance plans and evaluate proposals from benefit providers.
Consulting Services - Strategy
Before we develop a strategy to evaluate the effectiveness of City of Chula Vista's plans, we first must understand the City of
Chula Vista's objectives and financial goals for its benefits programs.
This is done through strategic planning sessions with the management of City of Chula Vista and the Insurance Committee.
Next, we evaluate the benefits plan designs and costs to identify places where your goals are not being met. We conduct
detailed evaluations of the claims experience to identify areas that have abnormally high or low utilization relative to normative
data.
Next, we evaluate each provider to assure that they are utilizing best practices for efficient, effective selVice at the lowest
possible cost. Finally, we compare the entire benefits program and cost of program with our clients in similar industries and
with national and regional benchmarking data, which is part of our HR Advisor program.
BAR~&BARNEY~
Page 8
-:(:i~'
','. .., .f' i _:'~
.>......;..;~:".. .-~".-~-,......._..
:'.>--; ,.-
Other tools utilized for the evaluation process include employee questionnaires, employee focus groups and surveys sent to
employers with whom our client competes for employees.
Once this evaluation is completed, we will report our findings to City of Chula Vista with detailed recommendations. It should
be emphasized that this process is not a one time event, but a continuous process of monitoring the effectiveness of the
program relative to a client's changing financial and human resources objectives. It would be our intention to meet with the
City of Chula Vista Human Resource representatives and/or Administration executives on a monthly basis to evaluate the
program's effectiveness, to identify areas where Barney & Barney can assist City of Chula Vista with its benefits program, and
to infonn City of Chula Vista about regional and national trends and issues that may impact your benefits programs.
In addition, it is our intention to facilitate an in-depth evaluation and strategic planning session six to eight months before each
plan anniversary to ensure that the benefits plan providers are furnishing best practice services at the lowest possible cost for
City of Chula Vista.
One of our key sources of information about a client's benefits programs is for Barney & Barney to conduct the annual open
enrollment meetings. At that time' we hear employee praises and concerns about the benefits programs in a relatively safe
environment. We have also found that our leading the meetings provides a more informative and educational interchange than
presentations by the insurance companies and claims administrators whose products are being sold. It was through this
process that an employee's complaint generated the idea for our unique Point of Service product which we would like to
discuss if we are selected as a finalist
Marketing Strategy
Our goal is to provide the best benefits at the lowest cost.
Once the benefit design options have been developed with the Insurance Committee, Barney & Barney prepares a Request
for Proposal which is distributed to all viable benefits vendors. In many cases, we meet personally with the vendors to make
the City as attractive as possible and to encourage the vendors to prepare the most attractive proposal.
When the proposals are received, we review each component to make certain that they are completely responsive to the RFP.
We review the provider networks, the benefits and exclusions, the premium rates and even go so far as to compare what
commonly used prescription drugs are on their formularies, and the financial strength of the proposers. We then go back to
those with the most attractive proposals and negotiate more favorable terms than the initial offerings to make certain that the
City obtains the lowest possible cost for the benefits. In addition, we check the references given in the proposals to make
certain that their other clients are satisfied with the level of service.
When this is completed, Barney & Barney prepares a comprehensive and clear analysis of the proposals so that the City and
the Insurance Committee can make the best possible decision.

We are proud of our success and effectiveness in negotiating the best possible arrangements with employee benefits vendors.
This is because of our reputation for fairness and integrity, but aiso because of the significant volume of business we have
with all the major employee benefits providers. For example, the following displays the annual medical premiums for which we
are responsible:
. PacifiCare
. Blue Cross
. Kaiser
. Aetna
. Health Net
. Blue Shield
$ 83,000,000
$ 23,000,000
$ 23,000,000
$ 21,000,000
$ 17,000,000
$ 12,000,000
While the above six companies are the medical benefits providers with whom we have the largest books of business, Barney
& Barney has a large stable of providers that we approach to obtain proposals for our clients. The number of markets by
coverage includes:
. Medical: 14 companies
. Dental: 24 Companies
. Vision: 7 Companies
. Life/ AD&D/L TD: 20 Companies
. Stop-Loss Insurance: 15 Companies
. Third Party Administrators: 20 Companies
. Pharmacy Benefit Managers: 8 Companies
. Employee Assistance Plans: 6 Companies
Health Care Providers
In addition to our relationships with benefits providers, we have developed superb relationships with the provider community.
This offers us the opportunity to learn about negotiations between health plans and providers well before issues and problems
are public knowledge. These relationships include the Chief Executive Officers of Scripps HealthCare, Sharp HeaithCare,
Sharp Rees-Stealy and Sharp Community Medical Groups.
Cost Effective Providers
Barney & Barney's goal is to identify the most cost effective provider for each component of our clients' benefits plans. We
frequently find employers who select the lowest cost claims administrator with a PPO network that charges low administrative
fees, but may not have the most favorable discounts from health care providers. The result is that the 2-3% savings on
administration is more than offset by 10-20% higher benefit payments. Therefore, we conduct an in-depth review of each
service provider to make certain that our clients' short and long term costs will be as low as possible and yet provide the
highest possible level of service and benefits for our customers.
In addition to the standard benefit programs, Barney & Bamey reviews many of the specific components of a benefits program
to make certain that each component is as effective as possible. For example, some of the components we review include:
. Mental health and chemical dependency providers
. Prescription drug carve-out programs
. Providers for routine physical exams
. Chronic disease and large case managers
. Appraisals of smoking cessation, weight reduction and other wellness programs including web-based employee
health risk appraisals
. Hospital utilization review providers
. Centers of Excellence for organ transplants and other major surgeries

. Claims administrators (TPAs)
Data Analysis
Claim reports from claims administrators and health plans are remarkably unhelpful for employers, They also rarely compare
data on a multi-year basis. As a result, Barney & Barney prepares in-depth reporting packages for our clients an a monthly
and an annual basis to assist in the evaluation and management of benefits programs so that our clients can make informed
decisions regarding plan design and/or vendor changes. When we replace another braker, our new clients find that our new
reports give them a dramatically improved understanding of their programs.
Communication to Employees
We believe the best benefit package in the world has the highest value to City of Chula Vista if employees understand haw to
use it and appreciate its value. We place a great deal of emphasis an comprehensive yet concise employee communications
which truly help employees understand and appreciate their benefits. Therefore, the employee communications program
detailed below is offered to City of Chula Vista at no cost.
Our employee benefit specialists will work with you to plan and design a broad spectrum of effective, technically accurate
communication strategies. Some examples include, but are not limited to, the following:
. Detailed employee booklets that are employee-friendly descriptions of the major components of the benefits
programs tailored for each location that has different benefits programs.
. Tri.folds that briefly summarize the benefits programs as an easy reference for employees
Simplified enrollment farms that combine multiple plan offerings
. Employee announcements far e-mails and/or payroll stuffers
Conducting open enrollment meetings at major City of Chula Vista locations
Conducting live and recorded web-cast open enrollment meetings for smaller locations or for individual sales offices.
Customized benefits websites that are linked to the City of Chula Vista website
. Train the Trainer sessions for HR staff for any and all locations so that the local staff has an excellent understanding
of all of the benefits programs
Proactively Staying Abreast of Change
Barney & Barney is dedicated to staying abreast of changes in the marketplace in order to best serve our clients. Our
relationships with carriers, provider groups, hospitals and local attorneys allow us to access information on various trends in
the industry regarding pricing, new products and legislative issues. We also subscribe to a number of periodicals far
information on cost and benefit trends.
Furthermore, we attend numerous conferences around the United States to identify best practices throughout the country.
This includes best practices in plan designs, claims administration, chronic disease and large case management programs,
wellness initiatives, provider networks and numerous ather trends.

We are continuously communicating with health plans and insurance companies to learn about mergers and acquisitions as
early as possible so that we can avoid any disruption for our ciients and their employees. We also take the initiative to
evaluate the financial strength of health plans and insurance companies to make certain that weaker companies are not in
danger of insolvency or in need of being rescued by a stronger company.
Our firm as well as our employees are active in groups such as Society for Human Resource Managers (SHRM), North
County Personnel Association (NCPAl and the CFO Roundtable, and sit on a number of boards of directors to assist and

To maintain the quality of service provided to City of Chula Vista, Barney & Barney has limited the number of accounts
handled by each team member. Each team member is associated with between 5 accounts. Our experience has taught us
that handling any more than 8 accounts compromises the level of service we can commit to our clients. Our clients also
benefit from account teams with stability, longevity and a strong team philosophy.
In addition to your day-to-day account team, Barney & Barney offers City of Chula Vista an extended team of professionals
specializing in a host of areas:
. Bill Peartree -- Director, Retirement Services Division
. Gary Gunning - Executive Benefits
. Sharon Healey -Individual Life and Disability

6.2.6 Compensation
Proposer shall acknowledge acceptance of the City's proposed method of compensation, and reporting, as cited in
Section 4.0 of this RFP.
Barney & Barney accepts the City of Chula Vista's proposed method of compensation, which we understand is through
commission arrangements with the insurance providers. We understand the commission structure will be established and
agreed upon by the City and Barney & Barney. After reviewing the commission levels supplied in the RFP, we were surprised
at the high level of commission and believe a reduction might be appropriate.
Barney & Barney serves as both a broker and a consultant for our clients. We would like to emphasize that our sole
responsibility and loyalty is to our clients, not insurance companies and vendors. Commissions received for coverages in
which a client wants us to serve as broker are fully disclosed to our clients. It is our practice to provide an accounting of our
commissions to our major clients like the City of Chula Vista on an annual basis. If the City would prefer, we would be happy
to provide this accounting of commissions on a quarterly basis.
We believe in partnering with our "World Class Clients" such as City of Chula Vista. As a result, we offer a Performance
Guarantee and Accountability/Perfonmance Report Card. At the start of the plan year, the City of Chula Vista will designate
certain areas of importance that our performance will be judged on. At the end of the plan year, the City will then complete a
Performance Report Card based on those areas of importance. If we do not meet or exceed your expectations, we will refund
a portion of our compensation up to a maximum of 20% of our compensation for that year.
. We look forward to providing more details of our Performance Guarantee during our face-lo-face presentation.
6.2.7 Exceptions to this RFP
The Proposer shall certify that it takes no exceptions to this RFP including, but not limited to, the City's proposed
Two-Party Agreement, which is attached as Attachment B. If the Proposer does take exception(s) to any portion of
the RFP, the specific portion of the RFP to which exception is taken shall be identified and explained.

SUBMITTED BY:
REVIEWED BY:
4/5THS VOTE: YES D NO ~
BACKGROUND
In 1997, the City Council approved a Sublease with Live Nation, Inc. (formerly Universal
Concerts) that established a process whereby a portion of ticket sales proceeds at the
Coors Amphitheater would be paid to the City and utilized for a Performing and Visual
Arts Fund. This fund is to be used for arts grants to the Chu1a Vista community for the
purpose of promoting and stimulating the growth of performing and cultural arts within
the City of Chula Vista. This year the Office of Arts & Culture received $36,188 from
Live Nation for their 2006 Concert Series and there was a carry-over balance of an
additional $4,500 from the 2006/2007 grant cycle as a result of returned grant awards.
As called for in the sublease, a Performing and Visual Arts Task Force was established
and it armually makes recommendations to the City Council regarding the arts grant
awards. The Task Force is assisted by the Office of Arts & Culture, which formally
conducts the grant application process. The Task Force has reviewed the FY 2007/2008
applications and makes the following recommendations to the City Council.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The Environmental Review Coordinator has reviewed the proposed activity for
compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined
that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the
environment; therefore, pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines
the activity is not subject to CEQA. Thus, no environmental review is necessary.

RECOMMENDATION
That Council adopt the resolution approving the Task Force's selection of the FY 2007-
2008 Performing and Visual Arts grants totaling $40,500.
BOARDS/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
The Task Force recommends that the City Council award arts funds to groups and
individual as outlined in this report. The Cultural Arts Commission unanimously
endorsed the Task Force recommendations at their meeting on April 9, 2007.
DISCUSSION
As it has since the program's inception, the Office of Cultural Arts administered the
Performing and Visual Arts Fund grant application process. Performing and Visual Arts
Fund Grant Application Packets were distributed by the Office to the Sweetwater Union
High School District, Chula Vista Elementary School District, City of Chula Vista web
site, all former grant recipients, plus arts groups and individuals in the Chula Vista
community and San Diego region. The Office then conducted one "Technical
Workshop" on January 6,2007.
Twenty-six applications totaling $68,280 in requests were received by the application due
date of January 26, 2007. Upon receipt and review, the Office of Arts & Culture made
recommendations for funding to the Mayor's Task Force. The current members of the
Task Force are:
Mayor Cheryl Cox
Roderick Reinhart, City staff representative
lbierry Gray, Live Nation/Coors Amphitheatre representative
William Virchis, Sweetwater Union High School district representative
Debra McLaren, Chula Vista Elementary School district representative
Chris Redo, Chula Vista Cultural Arts Commission representative
Kevin Tilden, At-Large Committee Member
A copy of each application was sent to the members of the Mayor's Task Force for their
review and numerical scoring. The twenty-six applications were then reviewed and
ranked by pre-established criteria by the Task Force on March 16, 2007 (see
ATTACHMENT A for a list of the criteria). The Task Force recommends funding
twenty-five applications for a total amount of $40,500. While all but one applicant
agencies will receive funding, a majority of requests were adjusted based on the Council-
approved Task Force policies. One application, from an individual artist, was ruled
ineligible for funding because the artist does not reside within the City of Chula Vista.

Report: Otay Ranch Eastern Urban Center (EUC) Sectional Plan Area
(SPA) Plan Compliance With General Plan Eastern District Framework
Strategy Objectives and Policies
SUBMITTED BY:

Interim City Manager )1 (4/5ths Vote: Y~ No ~
REVIEWED BY:
This report is an analysis of the EUC SPA Plan and its compliance with the objectives and
policies of the General Plan Eastern District Framework Strategy. The purpose of staffs analysis
is to ensure that all the necessary components of the Framework Strategy are addressed and to
obtain any direction on this matter prior to completing the SPA processing.
RECOMMENDATION: That City Council adopt the Resolution accepting the report on EUC
SPA Plan's compliance with the General Plan Eastern District Framework Strategy Objectives
and Policies.
BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: The Planning Commission reviewed
the report at their April II, 2007 meeting and approved Resolution PCM 99-07 recommending
the City Council accept the report and find that the EUC SPA Plan is consistent with the
Framework Strategy
DISCUSSION:
The Chula Vista General Plan Land Use and Transportation Element establishes planning
districts to guide the more detailed planning of certain areas within the city. One of those
districts is the Eastern District, which includes the Otay Ranch's Freeway Commercial and
Eastern Urban Center (EUe) (Attachment #1). The General Plan requires that the Otay Ranch
EUC Sectional Planning Area Plan (SPA) address the goals and policies of the Eastern District
Framework Strategy "prior to or in conjunction with preparation and approval of any subsequent
SPA documents that may be required within the... Study area".
Since the EUC SPA Plan is currently being processed, staff is bringing this report forward to the
City Council to ensure that all the necessary components of the Framework Strategy are
addressed and to obtain any direction on this matter prior to completing the SPA processing. It is
anticipated that the City Council will consider the EUC SPA Plan in early 2008. A brief EUC
Project Description is attached for your review (Attachment #2).

Meeting Date: 5/01107
Framework Strategv Historv
The General Plan identifies the need for a Framework Strategy for a study area that includes two
focus areas: the Eastern Urban Center and the Freeway Commercial. The General Plan describes
each focus area as follows:
. "The Eastern Urban Center (EUe) is the vibrant urban hub of the Otay Ranch, providing
regional services and commercial and residential uses to the area. The EVC derives increased
vitality and commercial market demand from the multi-institutional university center.
. The Freeway Commercial Focus Area, while relating to the university much less than the
other Focus Areas in the District, enhances the commercial vitality of the EUC, and also
benefits from increased market demands generated by the presence of the university and the
EUC."
The Framework Strategy was originally intended to address the EUC, Freeway Commercial, the
University Study Area, Village 8 and Village 9. The City Council, in a cooperative effort with
the property owners of Villages 8 and 9, deferred action on approval ofland use designations for
those two villages and the university and at the same time reduced the scope of the Framework
Strategy to include just the EUC and Freeway Commercial. Despite the deferral, all of the
property owners have worked to respond to the joint planning effort envisioned in the Strategy
and many of the principles contained in the EUC SPA Plan are the product of that effort;
especially related to transit routing and design, circulation, and grading.
Since the Freeway Commercial is already predominately developed with the Otay Ranch Town
Center, the EUC is the only SPA required to address the Framework Strategy at this time. That
being the case, staff has worked with the EUC SPA Plan applicant, the McMillin Companies, to
respond to the Strategy and the remainder of the report will provide a discussion of the intent of
the Framework Strategy and a detailed description of the applicable General Plan policies and
how the EUC SPA Plan complies with those policies.
Vision and Obiectives for the Eastern District
The Eastern District is intended to serve as the urban center for the Otay Ranch and the East
Planning Area of the General Plan. This District is to provide higher value employment
opportunities, cultural and entertainment elements, and residential development at a greater
scale, intensity, and density than the surrounding villages. The two focus areas are to have a
strong relationship to each other and will be connected by compatible, mutually supportive land
uses, circulation, and urban form. The District is to be linked and supported by a rapid transit
system that is to be integrated with the land use plans. There are four objectives for this District
stated in the General Plan:
1. Develop a corridor of integrated, high-intensity urban uses; office and business parks; retail
centers; residential uses; and a major higher educational institution along the State Route 125
corridor to serve the East Planning Area and the broader south county region.
14-2
Page 3, Item No.: -L~
Meeting Date: 5/01/07
2. Establish a distinctly identifiable corridor that creates a unique sense of place through: its
integration of diverse uses and land use Focus Areas into a cohesive development pattern;
and its linkages between the District's Focus Areas, adjoining communities, and open spaces
and the sub-region.
3. Provide a centralized urban area to support the East Chula Vista/Otay Ranch and south San
Diego County population, providing regional goods and services that cannot be
accommodated in the residential Village Cores of Otay Ranch.
4. Establish an area that functions as a retail commercial, services, and office node providing an
intense, pedestrian-oriented urban activity center that is linked by land use, design, and
circulation, including a Bus Rapid Transit system (BRT) to the region, other villages of the
Otay Ranch, and the University Village, University Campus, Regional Technology Park, and
Freeway Commercial Focus Areas.
Eastern District Framework Strategv Policv Analvsis
The following policies serve to implement the four objectives mentioned above by establishing a
strategy that requires that property owners look beyond the boundaries of their projects to
promote an interdependent relationship between housing, economic, and cultural elements within
the Eastern District. These policies recognize the need for coordinated development to enhance
the economic and community success and vitality of the District. Each policy will be listed
followed by a discussion of how the EUC is addressing that policy. In some cases policies have
been grouped to avoid redundancy, such as the first two policies LUT 84.1 and LUT 94.2.
LUT 84.1 Accommodate the coordinated development of land use Focus Areas within the State
Route 125 corridor: (1) a region-serving urban center with the highest residential densities and
an officelcommercial focus; (2) a sub-regional retail/lifestyle center; and,
LUT 94.2 Encourage the highest residential densities of the Otay Ranch Subarea to develop in
the EUC
Analvsis: The Otay Ranch Town Center implements the sub-regional retail/lifestyle center
recommendation of Policy LUT 84.1. The EUC SPA will implement the region-serving urban
center recommendation. The EUC proposes 3.5 million square feet of commercial (office,
visitor, and retail), a strong civic component, and 2,983 residential units with heights up to 15
stories. These densities represent the highest densities and tallest structures within the Otay
Ranch.
The EUC is also complementary to the Otay Ranch Town Center in a number of ways. While the
Town Center provides the site for large national retailers, the EUC will likely focus on specialty
retail, neighborhood serving, and visitor commercial (hospitality uses). There will also be a
focus on mixed-use development and retail commercial along a Main Street that promotes a
sense of community and pedestrian focus. The employment center will be the largest within
eastern Chula Vista and will provide highest quality employment opportunities for the city.

LUT 84.2 Allow for flexibility and adjustments of the designated land use/Focus Area
boundaries, and recognize ownership boundaries to: promote the intermixing of uses that
support and complement those existing in adjoining Districts and subareas; accountfor
changing market conditions and economic development objectives; andfoster the development of
a cohesive pattern of urban development and built form; and,
L UT 94. 8 Accommodate phased development, allowing the urban land use intensity and
character of the EUe to intensify and evolve in stages in response to economic and other factors
Analysis: Due to the size of the EVC, the higher intensity and mixed-use nature of the plan, and
the longer-term build-out of the plan, flexibility and the anticipation of the need for adjustments
to land use are being incorporated into the plarl. Staff has recommended and the applicant has
submitted a Form Based Code that allows for land use flexibility, mixed uses, and a better ability
to respond to the market, while providing extensive detail on building form and bulk and a
building's relationship to public spaces. The plan will also provide a planning program and
monitoring that will allow for future intensification when warranted by market conditions. This
flexibility will allow the EVC to better respond to any future, more specific planning of the
university and Village 9.
LUT 84.3 Permitted uses and densities/intensities may be adjusted among the Focus Areas,
provided that the objectives, policies, and principles for land use relationships, community
character, and urban form for the District are maintained.
Analvsis: The EVC SPA land use planning program and Public Facilities Financing Plan will
allow for density/intensity shifts as described in this policy while ensuring that any needed public
facilities are provided concurrent with need. The SPA Plan proposes a comprehensive
density/intensity transfer program that will allow movement of units and potentially an increase
in dwelling units so long as public facilities are adequate and the urban character and vision of
the EVC are maintained.
L UT 85.1 Integrate public schools; parklands; cultural and community facilities; libraries; and
comparable uses that support the other primary land uses; and,
LUT 94.1 Integrate civic uses; recreation activity; a system of parks; necessary schools; and
other resident-serving uses and encourage joint use of public and private facilities.
Analysis: The EVC is intended to be the hub of civic activities for eastern Chula Vista. The
plan currently designates land for a public library, fire station, local parks, a regional trail and
village pathway. The applicant has been working with the city on a police storefront facility and
with the Sweetwater High School District on providing space for Adult Education programs.
The Chula Vista Elementary School District is currently studying the need for an elementary
school site within the EVC. Staff is working with the developer to ensure that these are all well
integrated with the residential and employment land uses.
LUT 85.2 Locate and design buildings, public spaces, and landscaping to create a
14-4
Page 5, Item No.: I +
Meeting Date: 5/01/07
distinct character and identity for each Focus Area, emphasizing development patterns that
foster pedestrian activity and enhance community livability.
Analvsis: The EVC will have a distinct urban character, especially within the public spaces. The
grid street system along with trails and sidewalks will provide direct linkages between homes
and businesses and parks and community facilities. Buildings will be designed and located to
face public rights of way. Building architecture will not be of one theme but will promote the
EVC as a distinctively urban environment. To accomplish this, staff is working with the
developer to develop key design objectives within the EVC. The circulation system is being
designed to promote walking rather than the accommodation of the automobile as the primary
mode of transportation.
L UT 85.3 Connect the corridor's uses to surrounding open spaces with pedestrian and
bike paths and greenbelts.
Analvsis: Pedestrian linkages to the Otay Ranch Town Center across Birch have been provided
with the Town Center project and will be further implemented with the EVC. The EVC plan
implements the Bicycle Master Plan, which designates a bike lane along Birch adjacent to the
north boundary of the EVC, and additional bicycle access will be provided within the EVC. The
EVC will implement the Regional Trail (Greenbelt) by centrally locating that trail through the
Civic Core and Main Street. The Regional Trail then traverses the EVC and connects to the
pedestrian bridges that will provide access to the university.
L UT 85. 4 As part of any SPA plan within the Study Area, establish a coordinated system of
physical elements that interconnect and unifY the corridor's Focus Areas, including streets,
transit, sidewalks, streetscapes, signage, lighting, building placement and form, and
architectural character.
Analvsis: The SPA Plan, primarily due to a comprehensive gird circulation system, provides an
interconnected system ofland uses and public elements described in this policy. The plan also
features an integrated alignment for the BRT which extends the route from the Freeway
Commercial site and ultimately south into Village Nine. The Design Plan for the EVC will
provide a coordinated approach to interconnect public spaces such as parks, plazas and town
squares and other amenities and destinations within the plan and adjacent villages. Since the
EVC is intended to create a distinct urban environment, the building architecture and signage
will not focus on one style or theme but will strive to create interest, excitement, and diversity.
LUT 85.5 Carefully consider for each Focus Area land uses that will not diminish or prevent
the establishment of uses primarily intendedfor the other Focus Areas of the Eastern District.
Analvsis: The EVC is not proposing uses that would conflict with other focus areas. In fact, the
residential densities and employment uses in the EVC will provide residents and daytime
workers who would shop and dine at the businesses in the Otay Ranch Town Center. The fine-
grained circulation and pedestrian system complements adjacent properties and the EVC land use
program is being structured to allow flexibility to respond to future, more detailed university
planning and programming.
Page 6, Item No.: ~
Meeting Date: 5/01/07
L UT 94. 3 Provide sufficient acreage to accommodate cultural and community public facilities,
open space, park(s), and schools within the urban center and encourage the development of a
performing arts center.
Analvsis: The EVC is proposing space within the Civic Core that could accommodate cultural
activities and a performing arts center. The city's Arts Master Plan identifies the need and staff
is working to develop an Arts Master Plan implementation program. The Otay Ranch General
Development Plan (GDP) has identified the EVC as the site where cultural activities should be
located. Open space, parks, and schools will be provided as mentioned under other policies.
LUT 94.4 Develop the EUC as an intense urban form, with mid- and high-rise buildings
typically located in the central core and near transit.
Analvsis: The EVC is proposed to be developed with mid- and high-rise buildings designed to
front public street and designed with a distinctive urban character. The EVC SPA Plan will
propose design guidelines that will assist in implementing this policy. Regarding transit, the
BRT lines and transit stations are centrally located and are within V. mile of most areas of the
EVC.
L UT 94. 5 Apply the Design Review process for discretionary projects to ensure that building
facades are designed and oriented to accentuate and enhance the pedestrian experience and
urban street scene. Buildings fronting on pedestrian spaces shall be designed to support and
enhance dining, entertainment, and art and cultural activities.
Analvsis: A detailed implementation process is being proposed as part of the SPA Plan,
including design review of subsequent development projects. Buildings and spaces are proposed
to be designed to support and enhance dining and entertainment, especially along the Main
Street. As stated above, space is provided within the Civic Core for arts and cultural activities.
LUT 94. 6 As part of the approval of a SPA, provide pedestrian-oriented plazas, through block
paseos, and landscaped squares to add interest and provide contrast to the buildings, which
should generally be built to the sidewalk's edge.
Analvsis: Plazas and paseos are provided throughout the plan, including within the employment
park. The development of the public spaces and place making within the EVC is the critical
element to achieving the applicant's and the city's goals of creating an urban environment with
well integrated parks and other public places.
L UT 94. 7 As part of a framework strategy for the University Study Area, identifY development
regulations and design standards within City ordinances, policies, and other regulatory
measures that may hinder achieving the intended urban vision for the EUe. Revise regulations
and standards for both public and private uses and facilities where deemed necessary to create
14-6
Page 7, Item No.: -cl-
Meeting Date: 5/01107
the urban character intended for the EVe.
Analysis: Staff has identified plans, policies and ordinance changes that will need to be
considered for revision to achieve the intended urban vision for this project. These revisions will
be a part of the project description identified in the EVe Environmental hnpact Report. Any
revisions will be processed concurrently with the SPA Plan.
L UT 95.1 Accommodate uses that provide an employment base for the region, including office,
retail, business/research park, and visitor-serving commercial; cultural and entertainment
activity; an urban open space corridor linkage; and high density multi-family residential uses
developed as single uses or integrated with retail and office in mixed use buildings.
Analysis: All of the uses are being considered in the EUe in an integrated, mixed use land use
pattern. The grid system of streets creates a simple and effective circulation pattern for both
autos and pedestrians. This allows for increased and safe access to all business and residential
uses as well as parks and other public spaces.
LUT 95.2 Allow the development of uses that directly support or complement the university,
such as research; education, and business institutes; and faculty, staff, and student housing.
Analysis: Due to the built in flexibility proposed in the Eve SPA Plan, the residential density
proposed within the EVC, and the allowed 3.5 million square feet of commercial, the EVC will
be able to respond to the need for uses that would support the university, including a portion of
the needed faculty and student housing. It is anticipated that Village 9 would also provide
support for university related uses.
LUT 95.3 Floor area ratios shall accommodate a variety of low, mid, and high-rise buildings
for residential uses; professional, medical, financial, and other business uses; and local,
specialty, and regional serving retail complexes.
Analvsis: The EVC Form Based Code is being designed to provide the variety described in this
policy. Staff and the applicant are continuing to refine the guidelines and standards in the SPA
Plan.
L UT 95,4 The transit center location shall enhance the function and convenience of the Bus
Rapid Transit (BRT) system for residents, workers, and visitors in the EVe.
Analvsis: Staff and the applicant have worked extensively with SANDAG, the Metropolitan
Transit System (MTS), and Chula Vista Transit to plan for a centrally located bus rapid transit
(BRT) system within the EVC. The BRT will run through the heart of the EVC in both and
north and south direction with transit stations placed in close proximity to Main Street, the
highest residential densities, and employment areas.
14-7
Page 8, Item No.: 14-
Meeting Date: 5/01/07
LUT 95.5 The requirements for park areaJunction, and design shall be providedfor in an
EUC Parks Master Plan prepared as part of any SPA Plan within the EUC. The EUC Parks
Master Plan shall be guided by the needs and standards identified in the framework plan
prepared for the University Study Area.
Analvsis: The EUC SPA includes a Parks Master Plan and an analysis of the potential
demographic characteristics ofthe future EUC residents. Based on these documents, the
applicant has proposed a local parks program that is intended to meet the needs of this
development. Staff is continuing to work with the applicant to analyze the demographic
information and refine the parks plan.
L UT 95.6 The precise boundary between the EUC and the University Village will be
determined by the design of the Town Center Arterial during the preparation of the Framework
Strategy and subsequent SPA plans for the EUC and University Village.
Analvsis: The Town Center Arterial is actually not within the ownership of this applicant but is
located on the southern boundary of the EUC (the portion owned by the Otay Land Company).
The McMillin EUC SPA Plan shows the alignment of the Town Center Arterial and provides
north-south connections for both auto and BRT circulation. The precise alignment and design of
that route will be determined when Village 9 SPA Plan is processed.
L UT 95.7 Offstreet parking facilities within the Eastern Urban Center shall be located and
designed to promote the urban character and pedestrian orientation intended for the EUC.
Parking shall conform to the urban architecture and form; provide convenient pedestrian access
to the areas it serves; and promote the efficient use of shared parkingfacilities. To help insure
successful buildout of the EUC, regulatory measures and design standards shall allow for
flexibility in the siting of offstreet parking facilities to accommodate temporary, interim, or
phased parkingfacilities; and,
LUT 95.8 Promote the development of public or private parking structures that can be shared
by multiple uses within the Eastern Urban Center
Analvsis: Design Criteria is being developed to ensure that the urban character envisioned in
the GDP is implemented over time in the EUC. In addition, the applicant is preparing a Parking
Plan to address on-and off-street parking issues and shared parking. One of the critical elements
of the EUC is the issue of phasing, especially the phasing of parking facilities. Initially, it is
anticipated that off-street parking will primarily be provided in surface parking lots. Over time,
those lots will be allowed to redevelop to increase land use intensity with off-street parking
provided in structures. Staff and the applicant are working on design guidelines that will require
that parking lots be sited in a manner that is not detrimental to the urban character.

10.5.8 Eastern Urban Center Focus Area
Description of Focus Area
The Eastem Urban Center (EUC) is approximately 265 acres, located in the central portion of the
Eastem University Distri~ between the Freeway Commercial and the University Village Focus
Areas (see Figure 5-47). State Route 125 borders the area on the west and other major roadways
either surround the Focus Area or lead directly toward it
Existing Conditions
The area is currently vacant and undeveloped. Planning for this area is underway, in
conjunction with the planning of adjacent focus areas.
Vision of Focus Area
The EUC is the urban core of eastem Chula Vista and is the most intensely developed of all
areas in the Otay Ranch and east Chula Vista. It is a vibrant hub, integrating high density
residential housing, low-and high-rise office uses, and community and regional-seNing
commercial and entertainment uses, providing opportunities for new City-wide and region-wide
functions to be located there. As an urban hub, it is seNed by a Bus Rapid Transit (BRl) system
with a centrally located transit station. Surrounding land uses in the adjacent University Village,
the University Campus, Regional Technology Park, and Freeway Commercial Focus Areas relate
closely to the EUC

A. Background and Context of Proposed Project
The proposed project, Otay Ranch Eastern Urban Center Sectional Planning Area (SPA) Plan, is
located within the Otay Ranch Planned Community in eastern Chula Vista. The Otay Ranch General
Development Plan (GD?) was initially adopted in 1993 to guide the development of the planned
community through incremental SPA plans. The Otay Ranch GDP has been amended several times
since adoption and is recently underwent a substantial update that has been completed with respect
to most planning areas. The proposed Eastern Urban Center (EUC) project area is within the
completed portions ofthe updated GDP. The remaining areas to updated are adjacent to, but outside
of, the proposed project planning area. The location of the EVe within the Otay Ranch GDP is
shown in Exhibit 1.
The General Plan and Otay Ranch General Development Plan were updated and adopted in
December 2005. At the same time, a master program EIR for the General Plan and Otay Ranch
General Development Plan was certified based on full build-out of the Otay Ranch project. The
environmental analysis at the SPA level can tier off of this previous analysis.

According to the GDP, the Eastern Urban Center is planned to be the urban core ofthe Otay Ranch
Community and surrounding region. It is now also included in an area referred to as the Eastern
University District which is to be planned in a coordinated way, per the policies ofthe updated Otay
Ranch GDP (see Exhibit 2).

Plans that are either built or currently being developed: Village 7 to the west; Freeway Commercial
(Otay Ranch Town Center Regional Commercial) to the north; and, Village II to the east. The main
public transit facility within Otay Ranch will also be extended to run north-south through the EUe.

B. Summary/Overview of Proposed Project
The Eastern Urban Center Sectional Planning Area (SPA) Plan and associated documents/plans will
refine and implement the land use plans, goals, objectives and policies ofthe Otay Ranch GDP for
the majority of the Eastern Urban Center SPA (a portion of Planning Area 12), identified in the
updated Otay Ranch GDP.
Preparation ofa SPA Plan (and accompanying plans and documents such as planned community
district regulations, design guidelines, public facilities financing plan, development agreement, etc.)
is the standard implementing step required by Title 19, Zoning, ofthe Chula Vista Municipal Code
for the Planned Community Zone (P-C). This zoning district was established for the project area
with the initial adoption of the Otay Ranch GDP in 1993 which defined nineteen villages or planning
areas as discrete planning and implementation increments. As a zoning designation, the Otay Ranch
GDP is the implementing mechanism for the City's General Plan for the area.
The SPA Plan package will further detail the general provisions of the Otay Ranch GDP to specific
provisions for the proposed SPA area. The SPA Plan package will address land uses, intensity and
development standards, public facilities, design criteria, circulation, parks and recreation, and open
space within the SPA. However, due to the complexity of the EUC development concept, the
anticipated SPA plan will only provide a framework for community design per a "form-based" code
which combines the information typically include in PC District Regulations (land use and
(4/3/07)
3
14-33
development standards) and a Design Plan (urban design and architectural standards). This
approach is being utilized for the EUC because design features will be equally or more important
than land use regulations to project success. The Form-Based Code will establish design standards
form various locations within the project to assure that the desired urban form is constructed.
Following SPA-level document adoption, proposed development within the EVC will be subject to
Design Review and/or Site Plan & Architectural Review (see Proposed Design Review Process,
below).
The SPA proposal is intended to be consistent with the development concepts and policies of the
updated Otay Ranch General Development Plan and city-wide General Plan.
C. Project Purpose & Objectives
As noted above, the purpose of the proposed project is to provide the development entitlement
bridge connecting the existing Chula Vista General Plan and Otay Ranch GDP for the proposed
EUC SPA to the project level mapping and construction approvals which will allow the site to be
developed. The objectives of the project are to implement and demonstrate consistency with the
Chula Vista General Plan, P-C Zoning and adopted GDP and related plans at the more detailed SPA
planning level; define a subsequent planning process to provide the additional site/project specific
documentation required to assure that such development will be consistent with adopted plans, city
policies and regulations; and establish the necessary framework for subsequent construction and
occupancy permitting.
D. Site & Ownership
The Eastern Urban Center project area is located in the central portion of the Otay Valley Parcel of
the Otay Ranch GDP. The proposed SPA area is consistent with the Eastern Urban Center (EUe)
designated area identified in the Otay Ranch GDP (as amended). The EUC includes approximately
238 acres of gently rolling terrain and is bounded by the proposed alignments ofSR-125 on the west,
Birch Road on the north, EastLake Parkway on the east and Hunte ParkwayIRock Mountain Road
on the south.
Historically, the Otay Valley Parcel ofthe Otay Ranch property has been used for ranching, grazing,
dry farming and truck farming activities. The property is crossed by a system of dirt roads and old
cattle trails, and is composed of plowed agricultural fields and non-native grasslands.
The Eastern Urban Center site is comprised of three separate ownerships (see Ownership Map
Exhibit 4). This SPA Plan application has been prepared by the majority landowner, McMillin Otay
Ranch, LLC, which controls approximately 90 percent of the planning area. Only that property is
included on the proposed Site Utilization Plan (Exhibit 5) and adoption ofthe SPA Plan will grant
development approval only to that property owned by the applicant. Inclusion of other ownerships
is proposed to require amendment( s) of the initial SPA approval, as required by the Otay Ranch
GDP Implementation provisions.
Although, the proposed SPA approval is for and the focus of the proposed SPA Plan is the
applicant's portion ofthe planning area, some planning issues, particularly context and consistency
with other adopted plans, community structure and infrastructure, are more appropriately discussed
considering the entire planning area. Hence, the proposed project will address some issues with
respect to the entire planning area and others with respect to only the applicant's property.
Descriptions of facilities and features outside of the applicant's ownership may be discussed as
conceptual plans which demonstrate how a coherent urban center as a whole could be implemented.
These concepts would be subject to revision when the additional landowners ' SPA amendment( s)
are processed.

E. Proposed Land Uses & Commnnity Structure
In addition to the development policies and a narrative description of the intended development
within the Otay Ranch EUC area, the GDP also includes land use statistics for the entire EUC, as
shown in Table A below.

++ Fire Station.
The mix of uses shown in the table is subject to the following policy which was added to the EUC
policy list in 2005:
. The mix of uses shown in Exhibit 63 (Table A) are representative of the
expectations and intended character for the Eastern Urban Center. The final
land use mix and distribution of uses shall be determined at the SPA
planning level. Variation from the uses identified in Exhibit 63 may be
approved subject to thefollowingfindings:
1, The intended character and purpose of the Eastern Urban Center is
maintained;
2. The distribution of uses is compatible with the adopted uses in
adjacent villages; and
3. The viability of the Eastern Urban Center is maintained or enhanced.
This policy emphasizes that the character and purpose ofthe Eastern Urban Center, along with its
viability and compatibility with adjacent areas, is more important than a specific land use mix. In
addition, the intended mixed-use character of the EUC makes it difficult to categorize uses by
acreage since a single building (on a single parcel) may include different uses at different levels
(e.g., commercial at street level and office or residential uses on upper levels). Because of this
difficulty in assigning a building site to a particular use category, the proposed SPA Plan will
emphasize the appropriate character and mix of uses for consistency with the Otay Ranch GDP
rather than acreage statistics. Consistent with the note to the GDP Land Use Table, non-residential
uses will be quantified in terms building floor area (SF) in-lieu of site acreage. Correspondingly,
(4/3/07)
5
14-35
residential use will be quantified in terms of number of dwelling units instead of acreage. These
statistics will allow for the proper accounting of development intensity within the project regardless
of location within mixed-use structures. All analysis will be based on a "worst case" maximum
build-out of the EUe consistent with the adopted Otay Ranch General Development Plan, which was
adopted with a certified master program EIR.
As noted previously, ownership of the overall SPA is divided among three owners (see Exhibit 4)
and the proposed SPA Plan implements only the majority ownership. The development allocations
in Table A will be divided among the ownerships to determine the appropriate statistics for this SPA
Plan. The proposed division is done in Table B, shown on the following page. As shown, the
applicant's ownership comprises 90.04% of the total development acreage and corresponding
amounts ofresidential (dwelling units) and non-residential (building floor area) development are
proposed to be allocated to the proposed project.

Development statistics for the proposed project (applicant's portion of the EUe planning area) are
shown on the Site Utilization Plan (Exhibit 5) along with a general arrangement ofland uses. Those
statistics, which exclude arterial highways, correspond to the allocations indicated in Table B.
The total acres of individual ownerships in the EUe SPA may vary slightly due to changes in the
final right-of-way ofSR-125 and possible land swaps, but these should not substantially affect the
allocation percentages indicated in Table B. The exact percentage allocation shall be confirmed by
staff during the processing of the SPA Plan. The names and boundaries of the owners may also be
updated to reflect any changes that occur during the process.

The proposed project described statistically in the Site Utilization Plan reflects a complex urban
environment. The structure of the proposed Eastern Urban Center is graphically depicted on Exhibit
6, Community Structure. Mixed-uses will be developed throughout the project area, however
various areas will have different predominate uses which will help define their "character." These
predominate uses are identified on the Community Structure Exhibit. In the central portion of the
EUC, a "Main Street District" extends from EastLake Parkway, west to a "Civic Core" surrounded
by the "Business District." The "Gateway Commercial" area is located to the north, adjacent to the
Freeway Commercial (Regional Mall) area which is located north of Birch Road. All of these areas
will have a non-residential character, although residential uses will be within the land use mix.
The residential neighborhoods, located north and south ofthe Main Street District, each will have
its own neighborhood park and exhibit a more residential character than the commercial and civic
districts, as residential uses will predominate although non-residential uses will also be included.
Public uses are integrated in appropriate locations. A fire station site is indicated within the
Business District while a library site is within the Civic Core along with a public plaza park. An
elementary school site is potentially located within the southeastern residential neighborhood with
a "floating" designation.
Circulation facilities within the EUC will emphasize pedestrian circulation and pedestrian friendly
design to encourage pedestrian activity within and among all of the various districts. Vehicle access
is provided vis multiple entries located along each of the arterial streets which bound the planning
area. Internal circulation consists ofa local street grid which provides multiple routes to any internal
location. The public transit system will extend south from the Freeway Commercial center along
EastLake Parkway, curve westward along the northern edge of the Main Street District and then
separate into a pair of one-way couplets to extend south to Village Nine. The transit stops will be
located in the center of the SPA in the heart of the Main Street District. The proposed Gateway
Commercial and Business Districts will have freeway exposure adjacent to SR-125.
F. Proposed PlanninglDesign Review Process
The conceptual location of the internal street system shown on the Site Utilization Plan begins to
establish the structure and pattern of development within the SPA. However, because of the many
permutations of mixed-uses possible within the proposed SPA, a mechanism is required to evaluate
more detailed land use and design configurations and assure that the proposed urban form of
development meets the requirements of the EUC, as envisioned at the SPA level. In order to
document the intended urban form of the EUC, the PC District Regulations and Design Plan are
proposed to be combined in a Form-Based Code which will regulate the "form" of the EUC in a
manner similar to the way land use and development is traditionally regulated by "zoning" in other
areas ofOtay Ranch and the city. Instead of emphasizing land use regulations and lotting standards,
the form-based code will emphasize the urban form of the EUC, in particular the relationship
between building edges and streetscapes which define pedestrian orientation.
The Form-Based Code will essentially be the master plan for the development of the various design
areas within the EUC because it will "pre-design" or dictate specific design requirements for each
location within the project area. Subsequent design submittals will only need to demonstrate that
they implement or are consistent with the Form-Based Code requirements and reflect a coherent
development/design proposal. This evaluation will be completed with Design Review, which will
be the next development review step following SPA (including the Form-Based Code) adoption.
Standards and requirements for administering the Design Review process within the EUC will be
provided in the administrative provisions of the Form-Based Code component of the SPA package.
The final development review step will be Site Plan and Architectural Review as noted in the three
step summary outlined below. The overall proposed sequence is depicted on Exhibit 7, Eastern
Urban Center Review Process.
(4/3/07)
10
14-40
The proposed three levels of review are:
1. SPAlForm-Based Code: The Form-Based Code will be a component of the SPA
Plan and will prescribe certain overall and site specific design requirements for
development within the EVC.
2. Design Review: Design Review will entail reviewing a specific project design with
respect to compliance with the form-based code and related SPA documents.
Typically, Design Review will be performed on an individual building, but may also
include a group of buildings. Because of the importance of design context and
continuity of streetscapes, Design Review submittals will be required to address the
entire block on which the proposed project is located at a conceptual level. This
conceptual planning provides assurance that options for the logical build-out can
occur.
3. Site Plan & Architectural Review: This step shall be completed as a part of the
building permit process to ensure that construction is in compliance with prior design
review approvals.
G. Scope of the Proposed Project
The proposed project is the adoption of the EVC SPA Plan package which includes a number of
related documents, plans, etc., including but not limited to:
1. SPA Pan:
The SPA Plan being proposed will include the following components:
b.
SPA Plan: This is the plan required by the Otay Ranch GDP. The proposed
project will include the traditional SPA Plan text and exhibits prepared for
all planned communities in Chula Vista.
Form-Based Code (Planned Community District Regulations and Design
Plan): This component of the SPA Plan combines conventional zoning
regulations, such as: permitted uses, setbacks, height restrictions, parking and
signing requirements, review procedures, and other similar regulations, with
design standards for specific locations within the EVe.

Because of the preeminence of urban form over land use in the EVC, the
form based code will emphasize urban design requirements more than land
use controls. In particular, the form-based code will dictate specific building
edge/streetscape relationships to establish a pedestrian friendly urban
environment.
c. Public Facilities & Financing Plan: This component is prepared by the City
of Chula Vista, rather than the applicant, and addresses the phasing and
financing of public facilities, such as streets, parks, schools, fire, police,
water, sewer, drainage, and open space as the project progresses.
d. Water Conservation Plan: This will address the specific measures that will
be incorporated into the project to meet the water conservation standards
established by the City of Chula Vista.
e. Air Quality Improvement Program: This will include the specific provisions
that shall be provided at the project level to improve air quality.
f. Parks & Recreation Master Plan: This will address both public and private
open space, trails, and parks, including; locations, sizes, phasing,
maintenance, ownership, programed facilities, and needs based on
demographic characteristics. Because of the unique character of the EVC,
special consideration for park and recreation facility design and provision
may be required to accommodate the urban character and demographic
profile of the EVe.
2. Tentative Subdivision Map:
An initial tentative subdivision map will be included as part of the overall project.
It will address all the common requirements of a tentative map, such as;
parcelization, street standards, infrastructure, phasing, and grading. It will also
address provisions for off-site streets and grading required to implement the
subdivision.
3. RMP Amendment:
An amendment to the Reserve Management Program may be required that will
address revisions required to the applicant's ownerships as a result of the General
Plan and General Development Plan update programs and including the Dtay Ranch
Planning Area 18a.
H. Unique Issues Associated with the EUe SPA Project
Recent development within the city of Chula Vista, particularly that within Dtay Ranch and
surrounding areas, has followed a typical suburban model of single use zoning, medium
density/intensity, and two to four story structures. To achieve the intended character of the Dtay
Ranch EVC, deviations form the typical standards, policies and/or planning/design solutions will
be required. The following list identifies some of these issues:
1.
Building Heights: Vnlikethe conventional suburban model, the EVC will include intensities
that range from one-two story buildings to high rise structures.
2.
Mixed and Multi-use Projects: Many parcels within the EVC will contain more than a single
use, integrated both horizontally and vertically.

Urban demographic: The EUC is expected to have residents with different demographic
characteristics than other neighborhoods in Chula Vista. Because of this, their needs and
occupancy factors will vary widely from the suburban model. The project will need to
accommodate these unique requirements and resident characteristics.
Multi-tiered Process: The EUC will evolve partially based on pre-determined and fixed
requirements to flexible standards that allow development to respond to market variations
over the life of the project. Additionally, some parcels may begin at one level of intensity
and then be later modified to increase the density with such things as parking structures.
Transit A key element ofthe EUC project is transit facilities. These need to be located and
designed to operated efficiently, but also to allow other modes of circulation and urban
activities to function efficiently as well.
Public-Private Partnering: To implement the EUC will require a higher level ofpartnering
between the public and private sectors. Many uses are market driven and will require no
public participation, while others represent public objectives that cannot be implemented
solely based on market forces or as exactions. These will require unique forms of public-
private partnering that may include various incentives to insure these objectives can be met.
Relationships to Surrounding Uses: The EUe is within the larger Eastern University District.
The relationship of the applicant's project to the Eue ownership and Village 9 interface to
the south will need to be addressed. It may include, at some time during the process, a land
swap that could change the southern boundary ofthe project slightly. While the relationship
in physical terms to the University site is minimal, there is the need to create and enhance
the viability of both projects.
Streets and Traffic: A major issue in all major projects is traffic and the EUC is no
exception. But, the internal street characteristics are not expected to follow the suburban
model for the City's Design Standards. Variations may include; couplets, reduced street
sections, aerial and subterranean encroachments, specialized mixed flow transit streets, and
other non-standard street types. Congestion on internal streets, avoided in a typical suburban
village, is expected and encouraged to both enhance the intended urban character and
encourage pedestrian mobility.

An inconsistency exists between Chapter 5.44.010 which states that it is unlawful to hold
races on a race track for vehicles propelled by internal combustion engines and Chapter
19.54.020.J.7, which provides that establishments or enterprises involving large
assemblages of people or automobiles such as race tracks and rodeos, defmed as
amusement and entertainment facilities, may be permitted through a Conditional Use
Permit. Amending Chapter 5.44.010 to add a final sentence stating an exception for races

DISCUSSION
The City Council, pursuant to Municipal Code section 5.44.010, determined that races on
racetracks propelled by internal combustion engines be prohibited within the City of
Chula Vista. Subsequently, section 19.54.020.J.7 of Title 19 (Zoning) of the Municipal
Code was enacted which contains provisions for such uses with a Conditional Use
Permit. Therefore, these two Municipal Code provisions are inconsistent with each other.
The attached draft ordinance proposes that Chapter 5.44.010 be amended with the
following language (underlined) so that the inconsistency can be eliminated:
IT IS UNLAWFUL FOR ANY PERSON TO OPERATE OR TO SPONSOR A RACE
TRACK FOR VEHICLES PROPELLED BY INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINES,
OR TO PARTICIPATE IN OR TAKE ANY PART IN THE OPERATION OF SUCH A
RACE TRACK OR IN ANY RACE INVOLVING ANY SUCH VEHICLES, WITHIN

ACCESSORY SECOND DWELLING UNITS ~.
DIRECTOR OF PL~ING & BUlLDINGT
CITY MANAGER if I
ITEM TITLE:
4/5THS VOTE: YES
NO X
BACKGROUND
The City of Chula Vista adopted the first local regulations for accessory second dwelling
units in 2003. Since then, 150 property owners have applied for building permits, and 77
units have been constructed and cleared for occupancy. A few units have generated
complaints from residents concerned about issues of parking, loss of privacy, and the
incompatibility of the new units with the surrounding neighborhood. The City Council
directed staff to re-examine the current regulations to determine whether changes were
necessary. Staff conducted a series of workshop sessions with the Planning Commission at
the end of 2005 and early 2006, which identified a number of ways that accessory second
dwelling units could be made more compatible with single family neighborhoods. Staff
subsequently prepared a draft ordinance for Planning Commission consideration at a public
hearing in March of this year. This hearing is for City Council consideration of the Planning
Commission recommended amendments to CVMC Section 19.58.022 intended to make
future accessory second dwelling units more compatible within their single family
neighborhoods.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The Environmental Review Coordinator has reviewed the proposed project for compliance
with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined that the project
qualifies for a statutory exemption pursuant to Section 21080.17 of CEQA. Thus no further
environmental review is necessary.
RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council adopts the proposed amendments to CVMC Section 19.58.022 with
those changes recommended by the Planning Commission.

BOARDS/COMMISSION RECOMMENDA nON
On March 14, 2007 the Planning Commission considered a draft ordinance with
significant changes to the existing provisions of CVMC Section 19.58.022. After
considerable public testimony (see Attachment 4, PC meeting minutes) the Planning
Commission voted 5-1-1 to forward the draft ordinance to Council with a
recommendation of approval with three amendments:
. Allow detached accessory second dwelling units no matter what size the lot.
. Allow landscaping as an appropriate screening method for the parking space( s)
required for an accessory second dwelling unit.
. Do not require the owner of the property to live in one of the units on the lot.
DISCUSSION
Government Code Section 65852.150 states that second units are intended to be a source
of special needs housing "at below market prices within existing neighborhoods," and
that fees and requirements "are not so arbitrary, excessive or burdensome so as to
unreasonably restrict the ability of the homeowner to create second units." Government
Code Section 65852.2 goes on to establish certain maximum standards that local
jurisdictions must abide by to allow second units in neighborhoods zoned for single-
family use (see Attachment 1). If local agencies do not adopt their own ordinance with
regulations for such units, criteria within the Government Code will prevail. The City
Chula Vista's General Plan Housing Element for the period of 2000-2005 included an
obj ective for the City to adopt a local second dwelling unit ordinance, which the City did
in 2003 after criteria was developed by the Planning Commission through a series of
workshops the prior year. The current Housing Element includes Program 6.2.1 that says
the City will continue to allow accessory second dwelling units "in areas where the units
do not compromise the neighborhood character."
As noted in the Background section above, some units constructed under the existing
ordinance regulations demonstrate that the current rules may not provide the level of
protection desired for the City's neighborhoods. At the direction of City Council in 2005,
planning staff and the Planning Commission conducted an extensive study of the existing
ordinance and identified a number of new or modified regulations that could be added to
the code to insure better compatibility of new units with their surrounding
neighborhoods.
PUBLIC OUTREACH
The Planning Commission's study of the accessory second dwelling unit issues included
open public workshops with ample opportunities for both supporters and opponents of
this type of housing to provide input. For a variety of reasons, there was a delay in
getting a draft ordinance ready for public hearings after the Planning Commission
workshops. Because of that delay, staff felt it was appropriate to conduct one or more
public meetings to advise interested parties of the status of the proposed changes. Staff
was invited to a Northwest Civic Association meeting on November 13, 2006 to do just
that. Approximately 30 people attended that meeting. On January 11 of this year the
Planning Division sponsored a second general public meeting at Chula Vista High School
to review this topic. Approximately 40 people attended that meeting raising several
similar comments or questions as the people at the Northwest Civic Association meeting.
16-2
5/1/07, Item H.,
Page 3 0[8
Those lead to further review of the draft ordinance. The Planning Commission was
provided with a summary of the comments from the January 11 meeting, and staffs
responses (see Attachment 2), along with a letter from a property owner concerned about
the lot size criteria proposed for allowing a unit to be detached (see Attachment 3).
In anticipation of the public hearings on this ordinance amendment, over 50 people asked
staff to notify them when the hearings were scheduled. In addition to the hearing notice
published in the paper, letters were sent to those people prior to both the Planning
Commission hearing and this Council hearing.
ORDINANCE CHANGES
For discussion purposes in this report, the proposed changes to the ordinance have been
grouped and will be reviewed in the following three categories:
. Where can accessory second dwelling units go in the City and how big can they be?
. Where can they go on a lot?
. What other requirements would apply?
At the March 14th Planning Commission hearing on the draft ordinance, staff noted
several new issues for consideration that had not been discussed at the earlier workshops.
Those items are identified in this report with a lead in of "New Issue."
WHERE IN THE CITY CAN THEY GO AND HOW BIG?
No changes are proposed in the zones where accessory second dwelling units are
allowed. The A, RE, Rl and low-density residential areas within the PC zone may have
units if they can meet all other regulations.
There are several recommendations proposed that will affect the size of accessory second
dwelling units (ASDU) constructed in the future. One of the most important is the
introduction of the "Buildable Pad Area" (BPA) concept that would dictate ASDU size
based upon the flat useable areas of a lot. Areas with slopes greater than 50% (2
horizontal to I vertical) would not be included in the Buildable Pad Area. After the BP A
has been established, a sliding scale for ASDU size would be applied that would prohibit
ASDUs on lots with less than 5,000 sq. ft. ofBPA. Allowed unit sizes would begin with
450 square feet on lots from 5,000 to 7,000 square feet, and incrementally increases to the
current 850 square foot size limit on lots with 15,000 square feet or more ofBPA. A
second criterion used in conjunction with the BP A unit size standard would be to limit
ASDUs to 50% of the square footage of the primary residence, whichever is less.
New Issue: How should the ordinance treat the
addition ofBPA created through re-grading or the use
of new retaining walls? The accompanying
illustration shows how an upslope on a lot could be
cut into and retained. Conversely, a down sloping lot
could add a wall to hold fill and also expand the BP A.
This raises the question of whether the newly created

Page 4 of8
flat area should be used to calculate the maximum unit size, or would the original area
apply. Staff recommended that a limit of 20% of additional BP A created by walls or fill
be allowed. The Planning Commission accepted that recommendation, which is included
in Section C.2 of the draft ordinance.
WHERE ON THE LOT CAN A UNIT GO?
During the Planning Commission workshops, there was much public concern with the
perceived loss of privacy from certain types of accessory second dwelling units. To
address those concerns the following changes are proposed:
. Attached or detached - The draft ordinance presented to the Planning Commission
proposed that units on lots with Building Pad Areas ofless than 10,000 sq. ft. would
be required to be attached to the existing primary residence. Only on larger lots
would the ASDU be allowed to be detached. The Planning Commission reconsidered
that requirement and is no longer recommending that smaller lots only be allowed to
have attached ASDUs. This change is shown in the table in ordinance Section
19.58.022.C.3.
. Pad Location - The Planning Commission is also recommending in 19.58.022.C.3
that detached second units be on the same pad level as the primary residence.
. Height - Section 19.58.022.C.4 of the proposed regulations would limit ASDUs
detached from the primary unit to single story no more than 15 feet in height. Other
types of detached accessory structures in Chula Vista have long been limited to this
height restriction; therefore this rule will maintain consistency in this criterion.
. Setbacks - One of the significant changes to the current regulations is the proposed
requirement that side and rear yard setbacks for ASDUs be measured from the top or
toe of slopes for those lots with up or down slopes. This added separation between
units on adjacent lots will make sure that detached units will be less of an imposition
on neighboring properties. New Issue - Alley Setbacks - The rear yard setbacks
proposed in this amendment are intended to provide adequate privacy for abutting
residential lots. However, there are some neighborhoods in western Chula Vista in
which the backs of the lots abut alleys. The Planning Commission staffreport raised
the question as to whether there can be an alternative rear yard setback for these lots.
Staff recommended that a reduced rear yard setback be allowed for units on lots that
abut an alley, however, no language was included in the draft ordinance to reflect that
issue, and it was not one that was discussed at the hearing. Should the Council wish
to add a standard it would need to be done by specific action at their hearing. As an
alternative, if the Council decides to refer the ordinance back the Planning
Commission for reconsideration of other proposed standards; they can direct the
Commission to consider this language as well.
WHAT OTHER REQUIREMENTS WOULD APPLY?
Several other issues have been addressed with the proposed ordinance changes, some
relating to concerns expressed by the public and others proposed based upon staffs
experiences processing the applications to date.
16-4
5/1/07, Item I (p
Page 5 of8
Access and Parking
. General Rules - The current requirements for parking are very brief and left much
to staffs interpretation when processing an application. There are now 10
proposed regulations in Section 19.58.022.C.7 to better describe what parking is
required, where it can be located, and how big the space for the new unit must be.
The existing ordinance does not include size standards for a single parking space,
but the proposed ordinance specifies that a space between walls should be at least
10 feet in width to minimize damage that can occur from swinging doors. New
Issue: At the public meeting held on January 11, staff recei ved comments from
people who felt that spaces between walls should be wider than 10 feet to
accommodate larger vehicles. Staff considered that issue but still recommended
the 10-foot width to the Planning Commission. This is because the City's
standard parking table does not require any space wider than 10 feet. Setting too
high a standard when associated with this type of unit can bolster arguments by
housing advocates who periodically lobby for additional State restrictions on local
authority (Note Section 65852.150 in Attachment 1). The Planning Commission
did not alter staffs recommendation on this matter shown in section C.7.j.
. Parking screening - The current regulations specify that the required parking
space for the second unit to be "screened from view from the public street." No
further details are provided therefore some existing sites have used landscaping as
screening. Public concerns were raised that new landscaping can be ineffective,
and established landscaping could be neglected or removed easily. To address
this concern, the regulations considered by the Planning Commission included
language that the parking spaces be screened with decorative walls, fences or
gates. The Planning Commission was not as concerned with this issue and felt
that structures such as walls or fences could be less appropriate aesthetically than
landscaping and deleted the prohibition of that technique. That change is shown
in Section 19.58.022.C.7.i.
. New Issue: Another issue not previously discussed by the Planning Commission
during their workshops was the required access to panhandle or easement lots
wishing to add a second unit. The City's current zoning requirements for these
type lots only requires a 15 foot wide road or easement width to serve one lot. In
some instances the house on the front lot may be at, or very close to, the access
drive. Staff recommended, and the Planning Commission concurred, that only
lots with a minimum 20 feet of access should be allowed a second unit. This is
included in Section 19.58.022.C.7.d.
Desi go Standards
. Architectural match - The existing ordinance requires a unit to be "consistent"
with the architectural style of the existing primary residence. The new regulations
in Section 19.58.022.C.ll would require the style and materials of the new unit to
"match" the existing unit to further integrate it and make it appear as an extension
of the primary residence.
. Unit entrance - The proposed regulations would require that the entrance to an
ASDU not be located on the same side of the building as the entrance to the
primary residence. This will minimize the appearance of the structure as a
16-5
5/1/07, Item~
Page 60f8
duplex. Detached unit entrances must be located so as to not be visible from the
public ROW.
. Open space - Section 19.58.022.C.11.c of the new regulations requires that the
existing primary residence have a private useable open space or yard directly
accessible from a common area (living room, dining room etc.) of the unit being
served. The current regulations make it possible for the addition of an ASDU to
isolate the primary residence from such a yard area.
· Pedestrian access - The new regulations specify that a clear, direct and logical
pedestrian path be provided for the ASDU that would not impact the primary unit.
Council will note that in Section 19.58.022.C.7.j the pedestrian path can be part of
a parking area, but only if the total paving is a minimum 12 feet in width. This
will allow someone to easily walk by a parked vehicle.
. New Issue - Trash Containers - At the January 11 community meeting it was
brought up that the addition of another unit on a property could result in
additional trash containers that could become unsightly if not properly stored.
The proposed ordinance requires that the property only have one waste and
recycling account but initially had no standards as to location and screening of the
containers. New language has been added to the Design Standards (section
C.11.g) to require that trash and recycling containers be screened from public
view and not interfere with required open space.
Historic Preservation
To reflect the City of Chula Vista's renewed interest in preserving historic homes and
sites, the new regulations in section C.13 set out substantial new requirements for ASDUs
on recognized historic sites. These are to ensure that the new unit blends as seamlessly as
possible with the historic character of the property and its surroundings.
Inspections
Section C.14 provides new regulations specifying a pre-approval site inspection by staff
to insure the accuracy of the construction drawings submitted, thus addressing any
potential problems at the earliest possible stage. Although final building inspections are
standard in the City of Chula Vista, the regulations also specify an inspection by Planning
Division staff to verify compliance with all the regulations of this section.
Owner Occupancv
One of the more contentious issues with the new regulations was a proposed requirement
that the owner of the property live in one of the units. This was included in the draft
ordinance presented to the Planning Commission with the intention of minimizing
neighborhood impacts by providing better owner supervision of any tenants that might
occupy the other unit.
The Commission heard testimony from opponents to the owner occupancy requirement
who made two basic arguments against it:
16-6
5/1/07, Item I LP
Page 7 of8
1. There is a California Court of Appeal legal decision in the case of Coalition
Advocating Legal Housing Options v. City of Santa Monica, that struck down a provision
in Santa Monica's ordinance that required that the occupant of the second unit be the
property owner or his or her dependent, or a caregiver for the property owner or a
dependent. That Court relied on City of Santa Barbara v. Adamson, in which the
California Supreme Court held that an ordinance preventing umelated groups of more
than five persons from occupying a home in a single-family zone violated the California
constitutional right to privacy. Staff is aware of another case (Sounhein v. City of San
Dimas) where the Court of Appeal upheld an ordinance that included a provision that the
owner of the property be the occupant of the primary residence or the second unit. Staff
included the "owner-occupant" requirement in the original draft with the understanding
that this provision could be challenged in court.
2. Owner occupancy would be a hardship to owners whose employers may transfer
them out of the area, or who have personal reasons for being out of the area for an
extended period of time but intend on returning. The occupancy requirement could force
them to sell in a depressed real estate market as we have now.
After taking public testimony and considering the alternatives, the Planning Commission
voted to remove this requirement from the proposed ordinance.
Land Use Agreement
Given the extensive list of new requirements for ASDUs, the proposed regulations
include a requirement that the property owner enter into an agreement with the City
acknowledging awareness of all those requirements. This agreement would be in a
format acceptable to the County Recorder so it can be recorded on title to the property
and run with the land as long as the second unit exists.
Annual Report
The Planning Commission recommendation includes Section 19.58.022.0 requiring an
annual report by staff on the amount of ASDU activity within the City of Chula Vista for
the Planning Commission's consideration at the beginning of each calendar year. This
will give the Commission a constant monitoring system that will allow them to make
recommendations to the City Council for additional amendments should new issues arise.
DECISION MAKER CONFLICT
Staff has reviewed the decision contemplated by this action and has determined that it is
not site specific and consequently the 500 foot rule found in California Code of
Regulations Section I 8704.2(a)(1) is not applicable to this decision.
16-7
5/1/07, Item 1";;
Page 8 0[8
FISCAL IMPACT
The addition of a site inspection requirement prior to the issuance of a building permit
will add approximately I hour of staff time to the average processing time for the
building permit application. The recently adopted fee schedule did not include that in the
estimated cost for processing that particular application. The fee study used $189/hour
for any staff time devoted to processing a building permit, which means that the site
inspection will cost the City's general fund that amount for each application. The City
has been averaging 35 permit applications per year meaning this requirement could
impact the General Fund by approximately $6,600 per year. Conversely, the adoption of
this ordinance amendment may reduce the number of building permit applications
received by the City of Chula Vista thus resulting in a slight reduction in the amount of
overall fees collected, and the additional staff time required. The actual impact on the
general fund is therefore difficult to estimate at this time.

Government Code - Second Units
65852.150. The Legislature finds and declares that second units are a
valuable form of housing in California. Second units provide housing for
family members, students, the elderly, in-home health care providers, the
disabled, and others, at below market prices within existing neighborhoods.
Homeowners who create second units benefit from added income, and an
increased sense of security.
It is the intent of the Legislature that any second-unit ordinances
adopted by local agencies have the effect of providing for the creation of
second units and that provisions in these ordinances relating to matters
including unit size, parking, fees and other requirements, are not so
arbitrarY, excessive, or burdensome so as to unreasonably restrict the
ability of homeowners to create second units in zones in which they are
authorized by local ordinance.
65852.2. (a) (1) Any local agency may, by ordinance, provide for the
creation of second units in single-family and multifamily residential zones.
The ordinance may do any of the following:
(A) Designate areas within the jurisdiction of the local agency where
second units may be permitted. The designation of areas may be based on
criteria, that may include, but are not limited to, the adequacy of water and
sewer services and the impact of second units on traffic flow.
(B) Impose standards on second units that include, but are not limited ta,
parking, height, setback, lot coverage, architectural review, maximum size of
a unit, and standards that prevent adverse impacts on any real property that
is listed in the California Register of Historic Places.
(C) Provide that second units do not exceed the allowable density for the
lot upon which the second unit is located, and that second units are a
residential use that is consistent with the existing general plan and zoning
designation for the lot.
(2) The ordinance shall not be considered in the application of any local
ordinance, policy, or program to limit residential growth.
(3) When a local agency receives its first application on or after July 1,
2003, for a permit pursuant to this subdivision, the application shall be
considered ministerially without discretionary review or a hearing,
notwithstanding Section 65901 or 65906 or any local ordinance regulating the
issuance of variances or special use permits. Nothing in this paragraph may
be construed to require a local government to adopt or amend an ordinance for
the creation of second units. A local agency may charge a fee to reimburse
it for costs that it incurs as a result of amendments to this paragraph
enacted during the 2001-02 Regular Session of the Legislature, including the
costs of adopting or amending any ordinance that provides for the creation of
second units.
(b) (1) When a local agency which has not adopted an ordinance governing

application on or after July 1, 1983, for a permit pursuant to this
subdivision, the local agency shall accept the application and approve or
disapprove the application ministerially without discretionary review
pursuant to this subdivision unless it adopts an ordinance in accordance with
subdivision (a) or (c) within 120 days after receiving the application.

consistent with the existing general plan and zoning designations for the
lot. The second units shall not be considered in the application of any
local ordinance, policy, or program to limit residential growth.
(c) No local agency shall adopt an ordinance which totally precludes
second units within single-family or multifamily zoned areas unless the
ordinance contains findings acknowledging that the ordinance may limit
housing opportunities of the region and further contains findings that
specific adverse impacts on the public health, safety, and welfare that would
result from allowing second units within single-family and multifamily zoned
areas justify adopting the ordinance.
(d) A local agency may establish minimum and maximum unit size
requirements for both attached and detached second units. No minimum or

Accessory Second Dwelling Unit Workshop
Chula Vista High School
January 11, 2007
Issues List
1. Do CC&R's in Otay Ranch preclude ASDU's? If so, does state law and 19.58 trump the
CC&R's?
RESPONSE: Staff has reviewed this issue and determined that enforcement of CC&Rs
will be a civil matter to which the City of Chula Vista would not be a party. It is noted
that some neighborhoods in Otay Ranch have been designated for ASDUs and some have
been included with the initial development.
2. In an up-slope condition, can a retaining wall be built to enlarge the size of the buildable
pad?
RESPONSE: New language is proposed to allow only a percentage increase in BP A
through this method.
3. Include provisions that will allow the Planning Commission to approve a mIDumum
1,200 square foot ASDU under the right conditions.
RESPONSE: If so directed by the Planning Commission or the City Council, such
criteria can be developed. The proposed provisions will be brought forward with a
maximum size of 850 square feet.
4. Include provisions for trash enclosures.
RESPONSE: Single-family homes typically are not required to have enclosures.
However, staff can propose language that would specify that trash and recycle containers
be screened and located so as not to be visible from the public ROW or take up required
open space.
5. The 10' width of a parking stall is too narrow. Should be bigger.
RESPONSE: The standard width for a parking space is 9'. Standard garage width is 20'.
Normally, a 9' space with no obstacles is appropriate, but if abutting a structure (house,
fence, etc.) the proposed width is 10', and there is a proposed provision for a 3' walkway
from the parking space to the ASDU. There is a history of9' or 10' wide spaces being
adequate parking space.
6. Santa Monica City lost on their owner-occupancy requirement case in court. Doesn't that
make the proposed requirement unconstitutional?
RESPONSE: Staff has reviewed and believes that the ordinance as drafted is consistent
with State Law and is acceptable.
16-14
7. An attached ASDU eliminates the rear yard, so should be prohibited.
RESPONSE: New regulations requiring access from primary residence to rear yard will
insure that an attached ASDU is appropriate.
8. Why are ASDU's excluded from upper pads In up-slope situations In the new
regulations?
,
RESPONSE: New rules for ASDUs are intended to minimize visual impacts, protect
privacy and preserve single-family neighborhood characteristics.
9. Can the number of ASDU's be limited through infrastructure capacity?
RESPONSE: Yes, the number of ASDU's can be limited in number based on
infrastructure capacity. Section 65852.2(a)(I)(A), California Government Code, states:
"Any local agency may, by ordinance, provide for the creation of second units in single-
family and multifamily residential zones. The ordinance may... designate areas within
the jurisdiction of the local agency where second units may be permitted. The
designation of areas may be based on criteria, that may include, but are not limited to, the
adequacy of water and sewer service and the impact of second units on traffic flow." To
date, the number and locations of new units does not trigger the need to restrict due to
infrastructure capacity, but the annual report requirement on ASDU activity will allow
more constant monitoring of the situation.
10. Can the number of ASDU's be limited through GMOC?
RESPONSE: No, ASDU's cannot be limited in number through the GMOC process.
Section 65852.2(a)(2), California Government Code, states:
"The ordinance shall not be considered in the application of any local ordinance, policy,
or program to limit residential growth."
II. Relocate utility fixtures if necessary to accornmodate parking.
RESPONSE: Language will be proposed that specifies that parking and access areas
shall be kept free of utility structures.
12. How should alley access situations be handled? What is the criterion?
RESPONSE: Criteria is included in Section 19.58.022.C.7.
13. Will RV's or manufactured homes be permitted as ASDU's?
RESPONSE: Manufactured homes would be permitted if they meet State or federal
standards for residential construction and are placed on a permanent foundation, and they
16-15
meet all the design and development requirements for an ASDU including unit size based
upon the BP A. RV's do not fall into this category and so would not be permitted as ASDU's.
14. Screening for parking - What form should it take?
RESPONSE: Proposed regulations include a requirement for a gated parking space if the
space is visible from the street. The gate would be self-opening via a garage door opener
type device. If the space is not visible from the street, the intent is met and no gate or other
form of screening is required.

Attn: John Schmitz
Re: The City's plan to update the rules for second dwelling units.
To Whom It May Concern,
I have some concerns with the article that I read in the Star-News about changing the
requirements for second dwelling units in the City of Chula Vista. I realize that some have taken
advantage ofthe present rules and built projects that didn't please the community. Please
remember that this was a minority of the projects submitted and should not require a major
reevaluation of the existing requirements. My biggest concern is the requirement of setting
arbitrary lot sizes as the factor that decides whether the unit can be attached or detached. I noted
that a detached unit must have a lot size of 10,000 sq.ft. minimum. I feel that this is unfair in that
it does not take into account the existing coverage on the lot. My lot is 9700 sq.ft., which
according to the article would not allow me to have a detached second dwelling unit. I have an
approximate existing coverage of 1800 sq.ft. including my existing house and detached garage,
which is 19% of my lot. A property of 10,000 sq.ft. with 3200 sq.ft. of existing coverage, which
is 32% of the lot, will be allowed to have a detached unit. As you can see lot size should not be a
determing factor for requirements. Lot coverage would be a more fair way to determine
requirements.
I know that another concern is neighborhood privacy. Even though we are living in a city and
should expect less privacy than a rural setting, I have no problem with the city not allowing
housing on hillsides, and I also think a detached second dwelling should be restricted to one-
story. Other than that, I think that these units can be restricted by requirements that are already
on the books, such as coverage, floor area ratios, and setbacks.
Thank you for ,O.UT UTi cOIonsideration,

APPROVAL OF MINUTES: February 14, 2007
MSC (Vinson/Bensoussan) (7-0) that the Planning Commission adopt the minutes of
February 14, 2007 as submitted. Motion carried.
ORAL COMMUNICATION:
No public input.
1. PUBLIC HEARING:
PCA 06-02; Proposed amendments to Chula Vista
Municipal Code Section 19.58.022 regulating Accessory
Second Dwelling Units.
Background: John Schmitz, Principal Planner gave an overview of the proposed
amendments to the Accessory Second Dwelling Unit ordinance as presented in the staff
report.
Staff Recommendation: That the Planning Commission recommend to the City Council
the adoption of the draft ordinance amending Section 19.58.22, with any additional
amendments deemed appropriate.
Commission Comments:
5:44:48 PM Cmr. Moctezuma stated that the two conflicting issues are whether ADU's are
"granny flats" intended for use by a family member, or are they counted as part of the
affordable housing stock. In her opinion, the owner-occupancy requirement goes hand-in-
hand with the "granny flat" concept.
16-20
Minutes of the Planning Commission - 2 -
March 14, 2007
5:54:31 PM Cmr. Clayton stated she fails to see the rationale for requIring that parking
screening be provided exclusively with walls, fences or gates, to the exclusion of landscaping.
She indicated that the lack of space to construct a wall or fence could exclude a number of
properties that would otherwise meet all other requirements, while landscaping could
accomplish the same goal.
John Schmitz pointed out that the draft ordinance is merely, a compilation of ideas and
recommendations from staff and the community in an effort to minimize to the lowest extent the
impact of ADU's on the residential zone. He further stated that the Commission has the
prerogative to recommend adding, clarifying or deleting any number of the proposed
requirements.
6:04:29 PM Cmr. Tripp cautioned against setting up conditions, i.e. encroaching into the
setbacks in order to meet parking screening requirements, that would trigger applying for a
variance where hardship and reasonable use findings could not be made.
6:10:15 PM Cmr. Spethman stated that the Land Use Agreement, that is suppose ensure that
all of the requirements under the new ordinance are met, in his opinion, is onerous to the
property owner and should be part of the City's responsibility through the planning and building
process.
Mr. Schmitz responded that the intent behind this agreement is to memorialize all of the
requirements in the ordinance to the present and any subsequent owners of that property
because the agreement would be recorded on the title of the property.
6:14:31 PM Cmr. Felber asked for clarification on a number of issues, i.e.:
. Number of waste and recycling account
. The two-car garage requirement in the event that the primary residence does not already have one
. Do CC&R's in Otay Ranch preclude ASDU's?
. Tandem parking
6:26:35 PM Public Hearing Opened.
6:27:34 PM Patricia Aguilar, stated that Crossroad II became involved in this effort at the
request of Council member McCann. Fred Cowles of Crossroads II took on this challenge and
volunteered to form a Task Force to look into this matter. The group met regularly with City staff
and held workshops to solicit input from the community. Ms. Aguilar commended staff,
specifically John Schmitz and Luis Hernandez, for their hard work and exemplary community
outreach.
6:30:58 PM Fred Cowles stated that the State of California's decision relegated the R-1 zone to
an R-2 zone. The Ordinance Amendments that staff is proposing are an excellent attempt to
mitigate the ADU impacts and maintaining the integrity and character of the R-1 zone. Mr.
Cowles further stated that they support the owner-occupancy requirement because it adds
stability and maintains the pride of ownership on the property.
6:35:26 PM Peter Watry, 81 Second Avenue, gave a historical perspective as a resident of the
N. Second Ave. neighborhood since the early 1960's. He stated that since then, the residents
organized and opposed any attempt by developers to build multi-family units. The fear was that
1 6-21
Minutes of the Planning Commission - 3 -
March 14, 2007
their neighborhood would be transformed into what North Park now is; a neighborhood with an
over-saturation of apartment buildings. Mr. Watry stated that he supports staff's
recommendations, specifically the owner-occupancy requirement, and urged the Commission
and City Council to uphold its long history of a commitment to maintain the integrity of the
single-family residential zone.
6:43:48 PM Margaret Tuite stated she supports the draft ordinance, especially the owner-
occupancy requirement. Ms. Tuite indicated that her experience has been that the un-kept
properties in her neighborhood have been those that are rentals. She urged the Commission to
protect the character of the single-family neighborhood.
6:44:58 PM Kevin O'Neill, 621 Del Mar Avenue, gave a brief background of his involvement in
precipitating the implementation of an ADU Ordinance. The impetus to this endeavor was the
State of California's decision on the Santa Monica case, which, among other things, allows
ADU's by right. He cautioned that, based on the research he has done, the owner-occupancy
requirement would be indefensible in court. The important elements of the ordinance need to
address setbacks, design compatibility with primary residence and parking.
6:55:04 PM Philip Lopez, 20 Second Avenue, stated that the proposed ADU amendment
provides a reasonable compromise between the State mandates and the City's need to protect
the R-1 zone. He further indicated he would like to see a 2 bedroom ADU be required to
provide 2 parking spaces, as well as a limitation between the size of the lot and the size of the
ADU. He commended staff for their effort in making this a participative process involving the
community.
6:57:28 PM Frank Lazarro, 95 D Street, stated that an ADU was constructed next to his
property and he was one who complained about the negative impact on his privacy and quality
of life. For the most part he supports the draft ordinance amendments, however, he would like to
see tighter language address sloping conditions going both ways. In his case, his property sits
on higher ground and overlooks the roof top of the ADU, which involves a privacy issue.
Another issue not mentioned in the draft ordinance is smoke-related impacts, i.e. when there is
a fireplace and the ADU sits on lower terrain.
7:02: 1 0 PM Mrs. Lazarro stated she supports the draft ordinance, however, wished to point out
that the State's contention that ADU's help provide affordable housing, is not exactly accurate.
The unit that was built next to their home is renting for $1,200 p/mo. Mrs. Lazarro stated that
according to her research other jurisdictions have more stringent regulations that address
blockage of light, views and chimneys.
7:04:51 PM Raul Tellez, 601 Palomar St. stated that just because there are a handful of poorly
designed ADU's should not create a hardship on those that are yet to be built; those who find
themselves in a true necessity to build an ADU for a family member who is disabled or an aging
parent. The draft ordinance needs refinement and believes that the smaller size makes it too
hard to provide adequate space for the disabled who have need of specialized equipment.
Additionally, the owner-occupancy requirement needs to be reconsidered.
7:12:55 PM Darren Dalton, 325 Spruce St. stated he has an ADU, which is one that caused
controversy because the unit sits on higher ground in a lot that has a steep slope. Mr. Dalton
expressed his disagreement with the owner-occupancy requirement. As a career military
person, he may receive orders for relocation in short notice. This requirement would force him
to sell his property in a nearly impossible timeframe. This requirement creates an unreasonable
16-22
Minutes of the Planning Commission - 4 -
March 14, 2007
hardship and undoubtedly would be challenged in court. Mr. Dalton is also concerned with the
setback requirement, and with the 20% reclaimed unusable land.
7:18:38 PM Jose Alberti, 1133 Quinto Creek Place, Chair of the DRC offered the following
comments:
o that the key issue is design; the new structure needs to be compatible in design, color and
materials with the existing residence.
o supports the smaller unit size of 650 sf, which is adequate for a one bedroom granny flat.
o opposes the owner-occupancy requirement.
o Concurs with the State that ADU's are a means by which to create affordable housing.
7:20:16 PM Russ Hall, 59 Sierra Way, stated that whatever is adopted in the ordinance, must
be enforceable and City staff needs to be able and willing to regulate it. Mr. Hall inquired how
would the ordinance address and enforce the affordability of the units.
Mr. Schmitz responded that nothing in the State law requires that that be a factor. Staff has
never considered putting a rent control on these units. The issue of making these units
compatible with neighborhoods was dealt with strictly from a land use and design standpoint.
7:30:54 PM Jerry Scott, stated he supports the draft ordinance amendment and indicated that
his property has a 650 sf ADU, which is where his elderly parents-in-law lived and the size was
more than adequate.
7:34:06 PM Public Hearing Closed.
7:34:20 PM Cmr. Bensoussan offered the following comments:
o The visual impacts need to be considered not just from the public right-of-way, but the view
from the surrounding neighbors as well.
o higher density is more compatible the closer you move to the heart of downtown Third
Avenue, in the heart of the urban core, in order to support the revitalization of downtown.
o a good ordinance can make up for the fact that the State will not allow us to notify the
surrounding neighborhood through the noticing process.
o Would like to see tighter language stating that the use of landscaping is a means by which to
address privacy issues when there is a reverse slope and you're looking down into your
neighbor's backyard.
7:45:35 PM Cmr. Vinson stated he fails to see why there seems to be a pervasive thought in
western Chula Vista that renters or rental property is seen as something negative and threatens
the stability of R-1 zone, when in eastern Chula Vista, the developers are required to designate
a percentage of their development to be high density rental property.
7:47:03 PM Cmr. Moctezuma stated that the issue on enforceability is a valid one and
questions who would do the enforcing, particularly in the owner-occupancy requirement; she
would be in favor of making special allowances to the owner-occupancy requirement for special
circumstances, i.e. those in the military.
7:51 :09 PM Cmr. Clayton stated she is reluctant to set up regulations that encourage people to
circumvent or outsmart the system, in order to fulfill to the owner-occupancy requirement. As an
example, she said that someone could place the tenant's name on the title and the original
owner could move out.
16-23
Minutes of the Planning Commission - 5 -
March 14, 2007
7:55:29 PM Cmr. Spethman stated that the spirit of the ordinance is one of compatibility and
blending in the R-1 zone with one of the biggest issues being design and parking. Mr. Spethman
restated the language in the State's regulations, which states that, "...fees and requirements will
not be arbitrary, excessive or burdensome so as to restrict the construction of a second unit."
Cmr. Spethman offered the following comments:
. does not share the opinion that rental property degrades the neighborhood
. does not support the owner-occupancy requirement because its not enforceable and is an
erroneous belief that it will ensure that pride of ownership will exist and the property will be
kept up
. opposes the requirement to have the accessory unit attached to the primary residence for the
following reasons:
o as long as you meet the setback and size, a pre-manufactured unit may conceivably be
installed; how would you attach that structure to the existing one?
o if you have a beautiful patio with outdoor kitchen and/or spa; how could you require that
it be demolished in order to attach the unit?
o there are communities being built in east Chula Vista that have detached ADU's called
"casitas"; are we going to require the developers amend their development plans
requiring the casitas to be attached?
. 850 sf, is an adequate size for a young couple with a child, or an elderly couple or person that
requires a wheelchair or motorized chair to get around.
8:08:25 PM Cmr. Tripp stated that there ought not to be any distinctions made in the R-1 zone
whether or not it is close to the urban core. The State has determined that ADU's are allowed
by right and we need to put together a reasonable ordinance that is not unduly burdensome and
does not micro-manage the construction of these units.
8: 16:41 PM Cmr. Clayton offered the following comments:
. restated her concern with the enforceability issues over the owner occupancy-requirement;
. a small size unit does not equal an affordable unit when there are 750 sf 2 bedroom
apartments renting in eastern Chula Vista for $1 ,300;
. all homeowners property rights needs to be considered and would like the regulation to better
reflect the different scenarios regarding owner occupancy i.e., is a derelict property the
responsibility of an owner or is it a code enforcement issue; additionally, where are the private
property rights when an owner may be forced into a distress sale to accommodate a familial
emergency such as a military reassignment, death or illness.
. Concern with requirement for wall or fence screening of parking.
8:19:12 PM Cmr. Felber; offered the following comments:
. opposes the garage requirement where there isn't one on the primary home because it
increases the density of the lot and reduces the overall open space feeling of the
neighborhood;
. concurs that the owner-occupancy requirement may cause an undo distress sale and, in his
opinion, be construed as discriminatory because single residence owners are able to move
out and rent their residence, but if there is an ADU's, this would not be allowed.
8:35:32 PM Cmr. Moctezuma offered the following comments:
. it's very disturbing to her that the State has determined that the R-1 zone can be changed into
R2 by allowing these units by right,
16-24
Minutes of the Planning Commission - 6 -
March 14, 2007
. The distinction between a single residence property owner who decides to move out and rent
his home is not the same as a property owner with an ADU renting both the primary home and
the secondary home. With the former scenario, the R-1 zone is in no way being
compromised, therefore, she supports the owner-occupancy requirement.
8:41 :50 PM Cmr. Bensoussan made the following comments:
. the owner-occupancy requirement does not preclude the owner from renting out his house, it
merely means that he has to live in one unit or the other.
· supports the owner-occupancy requirement because, in her opinion, it is a disincentive to
building these units for profit gain.
. staff has gone through great lengths in considering all of the input from the community with
respect to height, size, whether its attached or detached, garage requirements, etc.; its has all
been considered taking into account what is in the best interest of preserving and minimizing
to its fullest extend the impacts to the R-1 zone.
8:52:06 PM MSC (Vinson/Clayton) that the Planning Commission recommends adoption
of the draft ordinance amending Section 19.58.022 with the following changes:
. grandfather in the existing CUP's unless they apply for a new permit
. remove the owner-occupancy requirement
. remove the parking screening as it is previously regulated with landscape
requirements only
. allow the expansion of the BPA through regarding, but with a limit of 20% of the
original buildable area;
. remove the criteria that requires units on smaller lots to be attached.
Cmr. Bensoussan offered an amendment to the parking screening requirement that it
include the option to either fulfill this requirement through the use of landscaping or the
construction of a wall. The maker and second of the motion accepted the amendment.
Jim Hare asked for clarification on the motion concerning non-conforming situations. He
indicated that existing regulations already covered that.
Cmr. Vinson amended his motion to deleting bullet pOint #1 from his original motion.

Subject: Re: Second Unit Ordinance
John,
Thank you for the proposed second unit ordinance materials. Below are my written public comments.
Unfortunately, I am unable to attend the Planning Commission meeting.
Subsection C(2), Unit Size - I would suggest that the maximum unit size be increased to at least 500 square feet
or 550 square feet for lots with buildable pads between 5,000 and 6,999 feet. A 450 square foot unit makes it
very difficult to build a decent one-bedroom unit. We want units to be livable in the City of Chula Vista. 450 feet
is unreasonably small.
Subsection C(15), Occupancy Requirement - Firstly, this provision should be split into two sections. One
section should be entitled Occupancy Requirement and the other entitled Legal Tenure.
The Legai Tenure Section should say that the parcel may not be legally subdivided I have a question as to
whether or not this would prevent two unrelated people from purchasing the property as tenants in common. For
instance, if the accessory unit were 30% of the total square footage and the main house constituted 70% of the
total square footage, would it be allowable for John Doe and Jane Jones to purchase the house as tenants in
common with the express intent of each owning their allocated share of the property? Perhaps this could be
clarified in the staff report and ordinance.
Occupancy Requirement- The ordinance should be somewhat more lenient by requiring that, at the time of
application (and maybe for a year before the application) and through to some period beyond certificate of
occupancy of the accessory ordinance that the owner be the occupant and that the use Agreement include a
section that states his/her intent to occupy the unit at all times. It also should clarify that at least one person who
is on title be the occupant. Similar to some mobilehome communitites, the City should allow non-occupancy for
periods of up to one year for cases of medical emergency or because of temporary employment needs. Also,
occupancy on an ongoing basis should be allowed by an immediate family member (there are good definitions of
this that can be found). Mrs Jones has lived in the unit for 20 years and raised a child there. She is forced into a
retirement home or long-term care due to health. Her son, who grew up in the house, is living on the property.
Technically, they would be violating the ordinance and would be forced to sell or would have to remove the
accessory unit. If it is a bit more lenient, this section of the ordinance may better stand legal challenges. Another
way to deal with this whole section might be to require that the accessory unit remain vacant whenever the owner
does not occupy the unit and, if the accessory unit is occupied during that time, that the owner be fined in an
amount that equals the last known rental income amount (or a fixed amoutn tied to the estimated market value of
such units) for as long as it was occupied without owner occupancy. Such an alternative provision would also
ensure we do not end up with the undesired outcome of turning single-family properties into multi-family units, and
would do so without requiring occupancy, thus avoiding the whole occupancy legal challenge.
Subsection 7, Access and Parking
7a, Two additional parking spaces rather than one space should be required for a two bedroom unit.
7c and 7i, Conversion of a two car garage and screening. If a garage is converted and the applicant can provide
screening of all parking pursuant to sebsection 7i, then the ordinance should not require a new garage to be built.
The rationale is that there is no negative visual impact to surrounding neighbors as a result of the conversion.
The other related requirement that might be advisabie is that, if the screening is proposed to be accomplished
accomplished by a gate, that it be a gate that can be opened and closed by remote control and that it be at all
times be operable. This would increase the liklihood that cars are placed behind the screening rather than on the
street side of the proposed screening.

b. The construction of the accessory second dwelling unit shall not result in the removal
of any other historically significant accessory structure, such as garages, outbuildings,
stables or other similar structures.
c. The accessory second dwelling unit shall be designed in substantially the same
architectural style and tinished materials composition as the primary residence or

features that convey the historic significance of the house and site.
e. If the historic house/site is under a Mills Act Contract with the City, the Contract
shall be amended to authorize the introduction of the accessory second dwelling unit
on the site.
14. Inspections - The addition of an accessory second dwelling unit to a property shan
include two site inspections at the following times:
a. Prior to the approval of the building permit, the Planning Division staff shall conduct
a field inspection to verify the drawings submitted for the permit are accurate with
regard to grading, on-site building location, primary residence design color and
materials composition, location of adjacent structures, etc. Any discrepancies on the
drawings must be corrected so that the subject property and resulting structures are in
compliance with this section and other related sections of the CYMe.
b. Prior to, or concurrent with the final inspection of the new accessory second dwelling
unit and the issuance of an occupancy permit by the Building Official, Planning
Division staff shall conduct an inspection of the lot to verify that that the accessory
second swelJing unit has been constructed and the lot has been improved per the
approved plans, and that the required land use agreement outlining the accessory
second dwelling unit requirements has been tiled and recorded and that all applicable
provisions of that land use agreement have been satistied prior to occupancy.
15. Occupancy Requirement - At the time a building permit is issued and continuouslv
thereafter, the owner of the property shall reside on the lot on which the accessory second
dwelling unit is located or constructed. Tile acoesssr)' seoend ffiveJling Hnit shall Bet se sold

In a 2001 decision (Coalition Advocating Legal Housing Options v. City of Santa Monica), a
second-unit ordinance preventing non-dependent adult children or relatives, as well as unrelated
persons while permitting dependents and caregivers, was declared unconstitutional under the right
to privacy and equal protection clause of the California Constitution.
A local ordinance could include income restrictions on the occupancy of a second-unit to ensure
the creation of housing affordable to low- and moderate-income households. A local ordinance
could also re uire one of the dweIIin s on the roperty to be owner-occupied. However, an
ordinance with these restrictions and requirements s au e eve ope in a manner that
encourages the creation of second-units as opposed to restricting the development of second-units.
Does Second-Unit Law Apply to Charter Cities and Counties?
Yes. Charter cities and counties must particularly give way to State general laws such as second-
unit law when there are matters of Statewide concern (Coalition Advocating Legal Housing
Options v. City of Santa Monica (2001) 105 Cal. Rptr. 2d 802), as stated by the Legislature in
Government Code Sections 65580, 65852.150 and 65852.2(i)(2). Further, second-unit law
explicitly applies to "local agencies" which are defined as general law or charter (Government
Code Section 65852.2(i)(2)).
Does Second-Unit Law Apply to Localities in the Coastal Zone?
Yes. The California Coastal Act was enacted to preserve our natural coastal resources for existing
and future Californians. While second-units utilize existing built areas and usually have minimal
environmental impact, the need for second-units should be balanced against the need to preserve
our unique coastal resources. For these reasons, second-unit law shall not supersede, alter or
lessen the effect or application of the California Coastal Act (Division 20 of the Public Resources
Code), except that local governments shall not be required to hold public hearings for coastal
development permit (COP) applications for second-units (Government Code 65852.20)). As
stated in correspondence, dated January 13,2003 uom the California Coastal Commission to all
coastal communities, local governments in the coastal zone should amend their Local Coastal
Program (LCP) to not require a public hearing in the consideration of second-unit applications.
Further, local appeals should be handled in an administrative manner.
.,.
Should a Locality Submit Their Second-Unit Ordinances to HCD?
Yes. Government Code Section 65852.2(h) requires submittal of an ordinance adopted pursuant to
subsection (a) and (c) to the State Department of Housing and Community Development
(Department) within 60 days of adoption. The Department will establish a clearinghouse of local
ordinances to assist local governments in developing effective and meaningful ordinances. The
Department is also available to provide technical assistance in the preparation of second-unit
ordinances. Local governments are encouraged to send electronic copies of their ordinance to the
Department at pmcdouga@hcd.ca.gov.

Subject: May 1,2007 Agenda Item regarding Accessory Dwelling Unit Ordinance
In the spring of2005, a number ofresidents became concerned about the way ADD's were being
built in their neighborhoods and brought several issues to the attention of the City Council. After
a public forum sponsored by Councilmember McCann and much public discussion at several
CounciJ meetings, the ADD ordinance was referred to staff in September 2005.
It has taken 18 months for the ADD ordinance amendment to be returned to the City CounciJ for
consideration. During that time, the planning staff compiled a number of recommendations
based on testimony from several public workshops, the November 2005 Planning Commission
comments, and the original 2005 Council comments.
Staffs March 14,2007 recommendations to the Planning Commission included the introduction
of a "Building Pad Area" concept that addresses useable area for construction; building height,
setbacks, and locations; access and parking (including screening for new parking spaces); design
standards; inspections, and owner occupancy/land use agreement.
The Planning Commission recommended that at least two of staffs recommendations be
removed: J) the owner occupancy/land use agreement and 2) the structural screening of parking
spaces. Apparently the Commission was concerned that the City would be more open to lawsuit
if they applied an owner occupancy requirement to the ADD ordinance. (The legal cases relating
to owner occupancy cited in the background information restricted both units to owner
occupancy. The provision proposed by staff was that onlv one of the units be owner occupied
and a land use agreement be implemented to address affordability and other issues.)
The owner occupancy provision as recommended by staffhas been applied in other cities and is
addressed in the State's implementation discussion for AB 1866. The provision in conjunction
with the land use agreement also will assist the City in providing development of affordabJe
housing opportunities again, addressed in the State's implementation discussion for AB 1866.
An additional aspect of the Commission's concern with the owner occupancy/land use agreement
seems to be that an owner may need to move from their residence due to job transfer or
relocation. A provision can be made to accommodate that situation, particularly in the case of
military homeowners.
The Planning Commission recommended that the solid screening of new, on-site parking be
omitted and allow landscaping for screening. This issue was discussed in 2005 during the re-
evaluation process of the ordinance. If screening is left to landscaping alone it is likely to
become an enforcement issue. It is not realistic to expect Zoning Enforcement Officers to
regularly monitor landscaping of one or two parking spaces per site when there are over 100
ADDs already constructed. The abundance of unabated front-yard parking currently occurring in
single-family neighborhoods attests to that issue.
I urge the City Council to consider adopting the proposed amended ADD ordinance with the
owner occupancy and land use agreement and structural parking space screening as
recommended to the Planning Commission by Planning Department staff on March 14, 2007.
This seems to be an opportunity to accommodate both affordable housing development and
preserve the integrity of the community's single-family neighborhoods.
Thank you for your attention.
Sincerely,
Pamela R. Buchan

Since the early 1990s, Chula Vista has been addressing climate change through its
involvement with ICLEI - the International Council for Local Environmental Initiatives-
and the City's Carbon Dioxide Reduction Plan. The 2005 Greenhouse Gas (GHG)
Emissions Inventory is the first formal evaluation of the City's progress in reaching its
emissions goal of 80% of 1990 levels by 2010. The 2005 inventory indicates that Chula
Vista's annual citywide GHG levels have increased by 35% since 1990 due primarily to
residential growth. While this represents a significant challenge in reaching the City's
2010 community emissions goal, the City did make significant progress in reducing
annual per capita emissions by 17% between the two inventory years and avoiding nearly
200,000 tons of GHG emissions annually. In addition, GHG emissions from municipal
sources decreased by 18% mainly due to energy-efficient traffic signal retrofits. To reach
the community and municipal emission reduction targets outlined in the CO2 Reduction
Plan, the City must decrease annual emissions by at least an additional 389,963 and 377
tons, respectively.
BACKGROUND
Since the 1990s, the City of Chula Vista has been engaged in addressing climate change
through its Carbon Dioxide (C02) Reduction Plan. The Plan, which was created with the
assistance of a 24-member Task Force, included a baseline assessment of 1990 greenhouse
gas (GHG) emission levels and a list of 20 actions that the City could undertake to help
reach its goal of 80% of 1990 emission levels by 2010. To date, eighteen of the Plan's
measures have been implemented by various City departments.
The 2005 Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory is the first formal review of the City's
progress in reducing emissions from both municipal operations and the broader community.

MAY 1,2007, Item r+
Page 2 of 4
The enusslOns analysis was performed using the ICLEI Cities for Climate Protection
Campaign's protocol which evaluates emissions from three main parameters - energy
consumption, transportation, and solid waste. Although there are six GHGs outlined in the
Kyoto Protocol, the ICLEI software calculates emissions based on Equivalent CO2 or eC02
which allows emissions of different strengths to be added together. The California Climate
Action Registry, the state's voluntary emissions registry, also reviewed and assisted with
data collection and synthesis. Because a different protocol was originally used in
calculating 1990 levels, the raw data was re-entered using the current ICLEI protocol and
software. Although this has modified 1990 emission values, it creates an opportunity to
more accurately compare 1990 and 2005 levels and to more effectively gauge the City's
progress.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The Environmental Review Coordinator has reviewed the proposed activity for
compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined
that there is no possibility that the activity may have a significant effect on the
environment because the current action is acceptance of the 2005 inventory and
reconvening of a Working Group only; therefore, pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the
State CEQA Guidelines the activity is not subject to CEQA. Thus, no environmental
review is necessary.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that City Council accept the 2005 Greenhouse Gas Emissions
Inventory and direct staff to reconvene a Climate Change Working Group to assist in
developing recommendations for future emissions reduction options and priorities for
Council's review and consideration.
BOARDS/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
Although no formal commission recommendation is required, staff did present the report
to the Resource Conservation Commission on April 16, 2007 as an Information Item.
DISCUSSION
In 2005, Chula Vista's total community GHG emissions were 960,639 tons eC02
representing a 35% increase compared to 1990 levels. Transportation emissions
remained the single largest source (approximately 48%) of citywide GHG emissions
based on annualized Vehicle Miles Traveled. Emissions from residential electricity and
natural gas use represented almost one-third of community emissions. Conversely,
community GHG emission levels declined on a per capita, household and acre basis
between the two inventory years.
Although municipal emissions only represent about 2% of Chula Vista's total community
GHG levels, emissions from municipal operations and facilities in 2005 equaled 19,432
tons eC02 representing an 18% reduction since 1990. The main factor for this overall
reduction was the City's retrofit of traffic and pedestrian signals with energy-efficient
technology. Conversely, fuel use and building energy use, and their corresponding GHG
emissions, approximately doubled between the two inventory years. Although the number
17-2
,-,
MAY 1, 2007, Item~
Page 3 of4
of City employees (FTP) increased approximately 38% since 1990, per employee
emission levels decreased 41 % to 16.2 tons eC02.
The 2005 Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory has enabled Chula Vista to assess its
progress in reducing GHG emissions. For municipal operations and facilities, the
measures implemented from the CO2 Reduction Plan have clearly helped the City
decrease emission levels. To reach its 20% reduction target by 2010, at least an
additional 377 tons must be offset. These reductions may be possible from a number of
current efforts. The City's Energy Efficiency Partnership with San Diego Gas & Electric
is providing staff support and funding for additional retrofit projects in various facilities.
In addition, ongoing Civic Center renovations will eventually replace older buildings
with newer, energy-saving structures. Finally, municipal fleets can continue to be
replaced by more fuel-efficient and alternative fuel vehicles.
At the community level, carbon-reducing measures implemented over the last 15 years
have lowered emission rates on a per capita, household and acre basis. However, these
accomplishments could not offset the increased cumulative emissions caused by the
City's tremendous growth during this time period. Since the baseline inventory, the City
has grown by over 82,000 residents and 23,000 homes. To reach its reduction target by
20 I 0, the City is now tasked with decreasing annual community emissions by at least
389,963 tons or 60%.
Although this may seem daunting, there are new regional and state efforts which could
contribute to the City's ability to meet its GHG goals. The California Renewables
Portfolio Standard program, established through Senate Bill 1078, will require California
utilities to obtain 20% of their power from renewable sources by 2010. Similarly, the
new California Solar Initiative will provide funding to encourage residents and
businesses to install photovoltaic solar systems. Both initiatives will help to reduce
energy demand on carbon-emitting power plants and have the potential to directly reduce
Chula Vista's GHG emissions. Statewide transportation GHG emissions are also
beginning to be addressed through Assembly Bill 1493 which requires the "maximum
feasible reduction of greenhouse gases" emitted by passenger cars and light-duty trucks
starting in the 2009 vehicle model year. Finally, Assembly Bill 32, the Global Warming
Solutions Act of 2006, requires that California's global warming emissions be reduced to
1990 levels by 2020. The reduction will be accomplished through an enforceable
statewide cap on "significant GHG emitters" starting in 2012. Although AB 32 will be
implemented after the City's reduction deadline, the new law has already begun to
encourage public and private sectors to lower their emissions. These statewide GHG
initiatives represent timely opportunities that the City can capitalize on to advance its
GHG reduction goals at the least cost to the City and local consumers.
There are also pending local actions which will contribute to the City's emissions
reductions. New mixed-use development projects proposed through the Urban Core
Specific Plan and the Eastern Urban Center will likely dampen residents' dependency on
motorized vehicles. Future extension of the regional light rail or Bus Rapid Transit
(BR T) system into eastern Chula Vista will further encourage mass transit use.

MAY 1,2007, Item 11
Page 4 of 4
Over the last IS years, the City of Chula Vista has made considerable progress in reducing
GHG emissions from municipal and community-wide sources. However, the City's
continued growth requires it to reassess its reduction efforts and to focus its strategy on new
opportunities if it is going to meet its climate change commitment. As a flIst strategy, staff
recommends that City Council accept the 2005 Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory and
direct staff to reconvene a Climate Change Working Group. The Working Group would
be comprised of resident, business, community group and academic representatives. The
Climate Change Working Group would initially serve, through an open, transparent and
inclusive process, to advise staff on creating a list of options and recommendations that
the City could pursue to attain its 20 I 0 GHG reduction goals. Staff would then return to
Council to present these recommendations for review and consideration and seek funding
support, if necessary.
DECISION MAKER CONFLICT
Staff has reviewed the decision contemplated by this action and has determined that it is
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.
FISCAL IMPACT
Approval of the resolution would not require any additional appropriations from City
Council. Staff would return to Council before the end of the year with a Working Group
Report outlining their recommendations for future emissions reduction options and
priorities. Staffs report will include a budget with potential funding sources that allows
Council the ability to compare the cost and benefit of the Working Group
recommendations.

SUMMARY
Since the early 1990s, Chula Vista has been engaged in multiple climate change forums
including the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and the Kyoto Protocol
Conference. As a result of this initial involvement, the City was the first local government with
fewer than I million residents to become a founding member of ICLEI - the International
Council for Local Environmental Initiatives - and its Cities for Climate Protection campaign.
Through the campaign, Chula Vista adopted and implemented a Carbon Dioxide (C02)
Reduction Plan which assessed its 1990 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and outlined actions to
decrease emissions by 20% by 2010.
The 2005 GHG Emissions Inventory is the first formal evaluation of the City's progress in
reaching its emissions goals. The 2005 inventory indicates that Chula Vista's annual citywide
GHG levels have increased by 35% since 1990 due primarily to residential growth. While this
represents a significant challenge in reaching the City's 2010 cornmunity emissions goal, the
City did make significant progress in reducing annual per capita emissions by 17% between the
two inventory years and avoiding nearly 200,000 tons of GHG emissions annually. In addition,
GHG emissions from municipal sources decreased by 18% mainly due to energy-efficient traffic
signal retrofits.
To reach the community and municipal emission reduction targets outlined in the C02 Reduction
Plan, the City must decrease annual emissions by at least 389,963 and 377 tons, respectively.
INTRODUCTION
The City of Chula Vista's Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions Inventory for calendar year 2005
was compiled and calculated using the ICLEI Cities for Climate Protection protocol and its
supporting software (Version 1.1). The protocol provides local governments with an opportunity
to collect and analyze their community's GHG emissions in a cost-effective manner without
third-party consultants to verify the data. The inventory provides the supporting data and tools
for shaping policy and regulations that address the City's climate change goals. However, it
should be noted that without the third party verification, required by the Califomia Climate
Action Registry, the protocol cannot be used to satisfy state-mandated emission caps or for
carbon trading. The State is promoting carbon trading as a financial incentive to encourage
entities to reduce emissions and to help California meet new GHG emission targets being
established by the Califomia Air Resources Board. Carbon reductions on the Chicago Climate
Exchange (CCX) are currently trading at approximately $3.50 per metric ton.
The ICLEI Protocol separates emissions into two major analyses, community and municipal.
The community analysis represents the quantity of GHG emissions produced throughout the
entire City from both public and private sectors. The municipal analysis only represents
2005 GHG Inventory Report - Final
17-5
lof9
emissions from City facilities and operations. In both analyses, the protocol evaluates emissions
from three main parameters - energy consumption, transportation and waste. It is important to
clarify that these data parameters are based solely on end use or net results. For example,
recycling program improvements would be reflected in the data by lower annual solid waste
disposal tonnage not increased diversion rates. Similarly, the City's emissions from electricity
are calculated based on the total kilowatts used, not the kilowatts saved in City programs or the
emissions output of the South Bay Power Plant. Although there are six GHGs outlined in the
Kyoto Protocol carbon dioxide (C02), methane (C1f4), nitrous oxide (NzO),
hydro fluorocarbons (HFCs), perfluorocarbons (PFCs), and sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) - the ICLEI
protocol calculates emissions based on Equivalent CO2 or eC02 which allows emissions of
different strengths to be added together. For example, one ton of methane emissions is
equivalent to 21 tons of carbon dioxide (or eC02) in global warming potential.
A major reason for performing a 2005 GHG emissions inventory was to assess the City's
progress in achieving its emission reduction targets. In 2000, the City approved a CO2 Reduction
Plan which outlined 20 actions the City could undertake to help reach its target of 80% of 1990
emission levels by 2010. Because a different protocol was originally used in calculating 1990
levels, the raw data was re-entered using the current ICLEI protocol and software. Although this
has modified 1990 emission values, it creates an opportunity to more accurately compare 1990
and 2005 levels and to more effectively gauge the City's progress. ICLEI staff has confirmed
this approach as the more accurate methodology.
RESULTS
With the assistance ofICLEI, and under the guidance of the California Climate Action Registry,
City staff collected raw data from a number of municipal and external sources, including

SANDAG, San Diego Gas & Electric and the Public Works Department (Table 1). In most
cases, 2005 data was directly available from these sources. However, it was necessary to
extrapolate 2005 data from 2004 values in some limited cases. Standard ICLEI software defaults
were utilized for emission co-efficients, electricity resource mix, and waste type percentages.
Community Inventory
In 2005, community GHG emissions from Chu1a Vista totaled 960,639 tons eC02 (Table 2,
Figure 1). The sector with the greatest amount of emissions (approximately 48%) was
transportation or mobile sources (Figure 2). The residential sector was the second highest source
producing about 28% of total community emissions from energy use, followed by the
commercial (20%) and industrial (4%) sectors. Because of the high methane recovery rates at
County landfills, the community did not have significant emissions from solid waste disposal.

Although there was an increase in total community emissions, the rate of GHG emissions per
person, per household and per acre decreased (Figure 4). The per capita emissions rate was
lowered 17% from 5.3 to 4.4 tons annually. Per household emissions were reduced 8% from
14.3 to 13.1 tons, while emissions per acre decreased 24% from 38.4 to 29.1 tons. Nonetheless,
in order to achieve the City's 2010 GHG reduction target, annual community emissions would be
required to be reduced by at least an additional 389,963 tons eC02
Municipal Inventory
Chula Vista's 2005 municipal GHG emISSIOns were 19,432 tons eC02 (Table 3, Figure I).
Similar to the community analysis, the majority of municipal emissions were from transportation
sources representing 54% of total emissions (Figure 5). Energy use for building and outdoor
lighting created 31 % and 15% of total emissions, respectively. Emissions from sewage and solid
waste operations were not significant in the 2005 municipal analysis.

Figure 5: Sector contributions to municipal GHG emissions in 1990 and 2005.
When compared to 1990 levels, GHG emissions from municipal operations decreased by 4,386
tons or 18% and emissions levels per City employee (permanent, full-time) decreased 41 %. This
reduction was mainly caused by lower energy consumption in the external lighting sector (Figure
6). Emissions from external lighting energy use (includes streetlights and traffic signals)
decreased 81% from 14,923 tons to 2,888 tons due to an energy-efficient retrofit program
implemented by the Engineering
Department, Public Works Department and
the Environmental Resource Manager in the
mid-1990s. Sewage sector emissions also
decreased by 96% resulting in only 27 tons
eC02 being produced in 2005. However,
this reduction is most likely due to
differences in how pump station energy
meters were segregated out of the dataset.
Both building and transportation sectors
approximately doubled their 2005 emissions
compared to 1990 levels. Similar to the
2005 inventory, emissions from solid
waste disposal at County landfills were not
significant in 1990.

To achieve the City's 2010 GHG reduction target, annual municipal emissions would be required
to be reduced by at least an additional 377 tons eC02.
DISCUSSION
Since the mid-1990s, the City of Chula Vista has been implementing programs and policies to
lower GHG emissions from municipal operations and the community through its CO2 Reduction
Plan (Table 4). Of the Plan's 20 actions, eighteen measures have been implemented. Twelve of
these measures were focused on reducing community-level emissions. These actions dealt with
lowering the community's dependence on personal motorized vehicle use and reducing energy

demand in new construction through "Smart Growth" land use and planning and voluntary
energy efficiency programs. Despite successfully incorporating these "Smart Growth" measures
into many new neighborhoods' design and construction, overall GHG emissions from the Chula
Vista community increased from 1990 to 2005 in most sectors. Only industrial sector emissions
were reduced during this time period. However, because commercial and industrial energy use
could not be segregated in the 1990 inventory, their individual emission contributions had to be
estimated. Therefore, reductions in industrial sector emissions are most likely due to more
accurate energy consumption tracking in 2005. If commercial and industrial emission levels are
combined in each inventory year, there was an overall 39% increase in emissions from the
combined sectors between 1990 and 2005.

From 1990 to 2005, the City experienced tremendous growth both in population and geography.
Population increased by 80,000 new residents or 61 %, and the number of households increased
to 73,115 units. The City's land area also expanded by 78% with the incorporation of 13,037
additional acres. Despite this growth, there was significant progress at the community-level in
reducing GHG emissions on a per capita, per household and per acre basis. It is estimated that if
the City had not implemented the CO2 Reduction Plan, 2005 emissions could have totaled over
1.1 million tons eC02 (192,000 tons or 20% above actual 2005 emissions).
Six measures under the CO2 Reduction Plan were adopted to target emissions from municipal
operations and facilities. Again, the measures were primarily focused on lowering fossil fuel use
and improving energy-efficiency. The City also had the most direct control over implementing
these measures through its policy requirements, program budget appropriations and capital
2005 GHG Inventory Report - Final

improvement projects. As a result, the City has made significant gains in reducing GHG
emissions in its own facilities and operations from 1990 to 2005. The largest emissions
reduction was from upgrading traffic and pedestrian signals with LED lamps. Conversely,
emissions from building energy use and fleet fuel consumption increased despite improvements
to building energy-efficiency and expanded alternative fuel and energy use. Although emissions
from municipal sources only comprised about 1% - 2% of the total community-level emissions in
both inventory years, the City's success in achieving reductions is a notable accomplishment and
demonstrates how targeted measures can produce significant CO2 reductions. In addition, these
measures required minimal or no initial investment and continue to produce long-term financial
savings for the City.
NEXT STEBS
The 2005 GHG emissions inventory report is the first step in the City's effort to assess its
emissions reduction progress and to redefine polices and programs required to reach its 2010
reduction commitment. With this report, the Conservation & Environmental Services
Department has the information needed to work collaboratively with other City departments,
community groups, residents and businesses to develop a list of options and recommendations
that the City could pursue to attain its 2010 GHG reduction goals. The following list, adapted
from ICLEI's Cities for Climate Protection program, provides examples of effective GHG
reduction programs and policies implemented by local governments and may serve as a reference
for future City actions. It should be noted that Chula Vista has initiated some of these measures
already to varying extents.

BACKGROUND
On April 5, 2007, the City Council held a workshop on Infrastructure Asset Management and
adopted a resolution endorsing the continued implementation of a pavement management
system. Tonight's recommended action allows the consolidation of available pavement
funding into one capital improvement project in order to maximize the application of available
funding and paving activities for the remainder of the calendar year.
ENVIRONMENT AL REVIEW
The Environmental Review Coordinator has reviewed the proposed project for compliance
with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined that consolidation
of funding into one capital improvement project is not a project as defined under Section 15378
18-1
05/01/07, Item~~
Page 2 of7
of the State CEQA Guidelines because it will not result in a physical change to the
environment; therefore, pursuant to Section 15060(c)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines the
activity is not subject to CEQA. Future implementation of the Pavement Management
Program qualifies for a Class Icategorical exemption pursuant to Section 15301(c) (Existing
Facilities) of the State CEQA Guidelines because the project is the rehabilitation of existing
streets, sidewalks, gutters, etc. for the purpose of public safety. Thus, no further environmental
reView is necessary.
RECOMMENDATION
That Council adopt the Resolution transferring $4,504,665 from the current pavement
appropnatlOn, $2.0 million from the available balance in the North Broadway Basin
Reconstruction Project (STM354) and $5.0 million from the available balance in the 4th
Avenue Reconstruction Between Davidson & SR54 Project (STL309), for a total of
$11,504,665, into the Pavement Rehabilitation Program - Future Allocations (STL238) for
pavement maintenance in FY 2007/2008, and preliminarily approving Transnet funding of
approximately $6.0 million and anticipated Proposition B funding of approximately $3.5
million for Pavement Rehabilitation Program - Future Allocations [STL238] for pavement
maintenance in FY 2008.
BOARDS/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: N/ A
DISCUSSION
The City of Chula Vista is responsible for an estimated 1,113 lane miles or 441 centerline
miles with a current estimated replacement value of $659 million--constituting the City's most
significant infrastructure investment. If placed in an unbroken straight line, this amount of
pavement would stretch from Chula Vista to Vancouver, Washington.
The City initiated and has maintained a pavement management system since 1986 in
accordance with the California Streets and Highways Code, which requires California cities to
implement a pavement management system as a condition to obtain funding from the State
transportation improvement programs. Pavement assessment is recommended every three to
five years.
The most recent contract for pavement testing and management services was awarded by City
Council to Nichols Engineering on January 10, 2006; the results of this work form the basis of
recommended next steps. The consultant's work indicates that the current estimated citywide
pavement rating is 79 on a scale of 100 with the range of scores falling between 13 and 100.
The Case Against "Worst-First" and the Case for a Pavement Management Svstem
The philosophy of pavement preventive maintenance - applying the right treatment on the right
street at the right time - represents a dramatic change in philosophy, strategy and direction for
most agencies and particularly for the public.
Previously, the most common approach to project selection within a network was the "worst-first"
strategy. In this case, the pavements that are selected for treatment are those that are closest to
18-2
05/01107, Item~
Page 3 of7
failure. Accordingly, the treatments that are applied are more expensive and more time-
consuming to construct.
The worst first strategy quickly depletes available funding focusing on streets that are already
going to cost the most to reconstruct. In the meantime, streets in acceptable condition continue to
deteriorate due to lack of attention, opportunities to expand the useful service life cost effectively
are lost and the backlog continues to grow as these once acceptable streets quickly drop into the
"major rehabilitation needed" category. The result is a quickly growing backlog that outpaces any
progress made by sinking all available funding into the worst streets.
Pavement preventive maintenance programs begin, either formally or informally, with the concept
that cost-effective treatments can be applied earlier in a pavement's life. These treatments are
thinner, are very cost-effective, are constructed relatively rapidly with minimal disruption to the
motoring public, and reach or exceed their design lives because they are applied to pavements that
are in generally good condition.
Pavement management is the process of evaluating and tracking the conditions of streets,
identifying when streets require maintenance/ rehabilitation, and choosing the appropriate
maintenance/ rehabilitation method for those streets. Experts conduct an evaluation of the
pavement surface, each street is then ranked based on a Pavement Condition Index (PCI), and
finally an appropriate maintenance strategy is recommended based on this PCI. This process
also includes budgeting for street maintenance funding and conducting inventories of street
assets. An effective pavement management system provides a systematic and objective method
for determining priorities and the optimal time for repair.
Even though transportation/street maintenance is one of the few areas where regional and state
monies are allocated (Transnet, Proposition 42, Proposition 1B), needs continue to exceed
available funding. Most public agencies face financial constraints and must make choices about
how to spend their limited transportation dollars. Even with dedicated pavement preventive
maintenance funding, a choice must be made regarding how to maintain pavement. When
funding constraints are present, preventive maintenance and worst first strategies are
incompatible.
Existing Conditions
As of January 2006, the City had approximately 441 centerline miles of public streets and
alleys, of which approximately 431 centerline miles are public streets that are open to traffic.
The total City Street network by functional class and average PCI is provided in the table
below. The average PCI for Chula Vista's 431 centerline miles of public paved streets is 79 as
of 2006, which puts the average street in Good condition. If no rehabilitation were done over
the next ten years, the average PCI for the entire network would be projected to drop below 60.
Should the overall network fall below 70, it becomes almost impossible to catch up with the
backlog.

Pavement Rehabilitation Scenarios
In the past, the City sometimes used resident requests to assist in the formation of priorities for
the construction of street improvements. Transitioning to a true pavement management
approach would minimize the use of citizen request data instead relying on objective
assessment and computerized analysis.
True implementation of a pavement management system is often difficult for residents to
understand because relatively new streets may be seen receiving treatment (the average person
may not understand the difference between a seal, an overlay, etc.) whereas a street needing
reconstruction may appear to be ignored. The reality is that the pavement management system
drives the best use of dollars attempting to avoid having the pace of streets falling into the
reconstruct category outpace available funding.
The purpose of a pavement management system is to enable the City to use its pavement
dollars in the most cost-effective manner so that the overall pavement condition is as good as
possible. Therefore, it is generally more cost effective to do a balanced program of seals and
overlays than to just do all the worst streets. If seals and overlays are applied at the right time,
further deterioration can be avoided, thereby postponing or eliminating a more expensive type
of repair. If a street requires reconstruction, timing is not as important, since further
deterioration will not affect the type of treatment required. Also due to the high cost of
reconstruction, many more streets can be rehabilitated using seals or overlays
Applying the right treatment to the right street at the right time can extend the service life of
that street from three to five years. Conversely, delaying pavement preservation for only one
year can rob five to six years of pavement service life.
Based on the current condition of the City's streets, the City's consultant has determined that
the City is starting out with an estimated backlog of $43 million in streets that need
maintenance and/or rehabilitation. It should be noted that the reconstruct estimates included in
the backlog are for pavement surface only, funding estimates for other infrastructure
complexities that challenge project initiation and completion (e.g., right-of-way, drainage, etc.)
were not estimated with this project phase.
18-4
05/01107, Item 16
Page 5 of7
In considering how best to apply available funding, several scenarios have been run and
analyzed. A sampling is described below. In considering the City's current situation it is also
important to consider some of the changes coming about with the new requirements for the
Transnet Extension.
One of the major funding sources for the City's pavement/transportation projects to date has
been Transnet (approximately $5 million to $6 million annually). The original Transnet was
scheduled to end in FY 2008; an extension was approved by voters and begins in FY 2009.
The Transnet extension imposes more strenuous restrictions on the use of funding, including a
requirement that 70% of a city's funding allocation must go towards "capacity enhancing"
activities-major street rehabilitations qualify as capacity enhancing. Only 30% of funds may
be used for maintenance (including seals). This assumption has been built into the budget
scenarios described below; however it may threaten the optimal implementation of a pavement
management system. If this is the case, the Transnet extension provides an appeal process that
staff recommends be undertaken if necessary to support the practical application of a pavement
management system.
Should the City's future ten-year investment in pavement consist only of available anticipated
Transnet and Proposition 42 funding, total funding would be about $39,804,000 over ten years.
At the end of that period, the citywide PCI is estimated to decrease from 79 to 64, with the
backlog increasing to approximately $160 million-almost four times the current estimate.
On the other hand, the ideal budget estimate results from answering the question, "What would
be the funding requirement to eliminate the current estimated backlog and maintain or improve
the overall PCI?" The analysis shows that an approximate investment of $19.2 million per
year for ten years (actual total is $188.1 million) would eliminate the backlog by the end of the
tenth year and improve the City's overall PCI from 79 to 811
Since the percentage of maintenance funds from Transnet will be limited to 30% beginning in
July 2008 assuming an appeal is not approved, staff is recommending that the majority of the
currently unrestricted Transnet funding go toward preventive maintenance in 2007. In order to
maximize available funding within the context of the new Transnet requirements and to allow
the City some time to consider expanded and/or new sources of revenue, a two-year pavement
budget plan is recommended tonight.
It assumes a budget of $11.5 million in FY 2007 and $9.5 million in FY 2008. It includes the
transfer of funds from the North Broadway and North 4th Avenue Capital Improvement
Program projects in order to let those projects receive equal consideration with all other City
streets in the automated program. It also assumes that all available Transnet and Proposition
42 funds will be applied to the rehabilitation program in 2007. The anticipated Proposition IB
allocation of $3.5 million is included in the FY 2008 figure. One of the advantages to this
approach is that it potentially avoids $45 million in expenses in ten years by reducing the
1 It should be noted however that reconstruct estimates included in the backlog are for pavement surface only,
funding estimates for other infrastructure complexities that challenge project initiation and completion (e.g., right-
of-way, drainage, etc.) were not estimated with this project phase.
18-5
05/01/07, Item~
Page 6 of7
potential backlog to an estimated $115 million as compared to $160 million. This occurs
because more streets on the edge of dropping into the rehabilitation category within the first
two years are pulled back into the "less-cost-required" maintenance category.
Although the $11.5 million available in the first year is significantly higher than what the City
has typically been able to put toward pavement, it is significantly lower than the estimated
$19.2 million a year required to maintain the current pcr; therefore, the pcr after two years'
treatment is projected to decrease from 79 to 76.
If the recommendation regarding the immediate next two years is approved, staff will proceed
with finalizing a data run for a recommended five-year program that will be the basis of the
execution of a paving contract to begin this calendar year. After advertisement, the
recommended award of the contract will come back to the City Council with the total amount
of award, anticipated impact on the city's overall pcr, etc.
Staff will continue with developing further recommendations in the area of pavement and
overall infrastructure given the policy discussion at the April 5th workshop. The City Council's
discussion and specific direction will be integrated into a more specific pavement management
recommendation for implementation with the 2010 fiscal year. Final recommendations and
projected results will be brought to the City Council for consideration, discussion and
direction.
DECISION MAKER CONFLICT
Staff has reviewed the decision contemplated by this action and has determined that the
decision concerns repairs, replacement, or maintenance of existing streets or similar facilities
and, therefore, there is not a material financial effect of the decision on the property holdings
of the City Council Members pursuant to California Code of Regulations sections
18704.2(b)(2) and 18705.2(b)(I). However, this action involves the transfer of monies from
STM354, the North Broadway Basin Reconstruction Project, and STL309, the 4th Avenue
Reconstruction Between Davidson & SR54 Project. Staff has reviewed the property holdings
of the City Council Members with regard to STM354 and STL309 and has found a conflict
exists, in that Council Member Rindone has property holdings within 500 feet of the
boundaries of these properties.
FISCAL IMPACT
As noted above, current allocated funding is not sufficient to meet ongoing and worsening
needs; therefore, without an increase in funding the City will continue to fall behind in this area
of responsibility. Additional funding will require a greater allocation of general funds to
infrastructure and/or new or enhanced revenue streams.
Additional immediate fiscal impacts involve the transfer of already appropriated funding
within the CIP budget in order to invest a significant amount of funding into pavement
management before the new, more stringent Transnet extension requirements begin in FY
2009.

Specifically, a pavement management program of $11,504,665 million in FY 2007 and $9.5
million in FY 2008 is recommended. This would be accomplished by consolidating available
balances from several general pavement capital improvement projects (total: $4,504,665),
transferring $2.0 million from the available balance of the North Broadway Basin
Reconstruction Project (STM354) and $5.0 million from the available balance of the 4th
Avenue Reconstruction between Davidson & SR54 Project (STL309) into Pavement
Rehabilitation Program - Future Allocations (STL238).

City Clerk's Recommendations
Allow this to expire and Council Policy
110-05 be rescinded.
Recommends that this be reconstituted
as other than a Board or Commission
in order to provide flexibility in the rules
that define this group's organization.
Subcommittee Recommendations
Concur
Possible name change to
Youth Action Council
Change membership to allow
CV residents (regardless of
where the school they attend
is located), be a high school
student (10th - 12th grade), serve
one-year renewable terms from
July 1 - June 30, allow more
than one student per school to
participate and have selection
process guided by the school's
ASS, administrator or open
process. Maximum of 2 students
from the school that originally made
the appointment.
The program would focus on
meeting during the school year,
have community service (ie ~
Beautify CV, Animal Shelter,
Nature Center, Earth Week etc),
and have a city government
education component such
as attending council meetings,
shadow City officials, historic
surveys, ride-alonQs etc.
General Ucdates
A City Clerk recommends to adopt consistent general rules governing all boards and commissions, unless the Charter or a specific purpose requires otherwise, and place them in one location
for easy reference. Currently some rules are drawn from the Charter and some from Council Policies. The general rules will clarify confusion about quorum requirements,
the intent of entire membership and qualified elector, the effective date of taking office in order to determine the length of service in un-expired terms.
The general rules will include basic information regarding appointments, terms, holding meetings etc. This portion will be removed from the individual commission
information in the Municipal code book. The Municipal code book will still include the specific information to each commission such as creation, purpose,
definition (if applicable) intent, functions & duties, membership, etc.
Subcommittee concurs with City Clerk's recommendations.

General Updates
B City Clerk recommends to rescind Council Policies 110-01 to 110-14 and incorporate the language covered by these policies into the Municipal Code as appropriate. Many of these policies overlap
and are inconsistent with the Municipal Code. This will reduce inconsistencies and redundancies in the policies governing boards and commissions and will reduce
the number of locations one must search to determine the applicable law or policy governing the Board or Commission.
Subcommittee concurs with City Clerks recommendations.
