ITEM TITLE:
BACKGROUND
A joint planning effort between the City/Redevelopment Agency (Agency) and the San Diego
Unified Port District (Port) created the Chula Vista Bayfront Master Plan (CVBMP) that envisions
developing a world-class waterfront using sound planning and economics. The CVBMP project
area encompasses a total of approximately 550 acres that includes approximately 490 acres of land
area and 60 acres of water area that lie within the Bayfront Redevelopment Project Area. Over the
next several years, the City anticipates the CVBMP's new development and redevelopment projects
will require between $178 million and $510 million in capital and infrastructure requirements.
To finance these projects, it is necessary to establish a pool of investment banking and underwriting
firms to serve as an integral part of the City's financing team comprised of the City's fmancial
advisor, bond counsel and City staff. In addition to establishing the underwriting pool for the
CVBMP, there is a desire for the underwriting pool to also provide their financial expertise when
the Agency considers development projects within the other Redevelopment Projects Areas. For
any given project financing, one finn will be selected to act as Senior Manager and may contract
with the other finns to co-manage if necessary. The Senior Manager will work with the City's
financing team in formulating a debt financing strategy. Other duties include but are not limited to
developing a sales strategy and marketing plan, assisting in structuring the debt issuance, making
recommendations on the timing of the debt sale, maturity schedule and call provisions, analyzing
and assisting in the evaluation of credit enhancement proposals, and assisting in preparing
documents related to debt issuance.

Based on a Request for Proposal (RFP) process, staff recommends that seven fIrms be included in
the pool. The City will be required to enter into agreements with selected fIrms only at the time of
any debt fInancing.
RECOMMENDATION
That Council adopt the resolution establishing a pool of seven investment banking and
underwriting fIrms for the City of Chula Vista Bayfront Development and Redevelopment
Agency project areas.
BOARDS/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
On September 27, 2007, the Chula Vista Redevelopment Corporation adopted a resolution
recommending the Chula Vista City Council and Redevelopment Agency establish a pool of
seven investment banking and underwriting fIrms for the City of Chula Vista Bayfront
Development and Redevelopment Agency project areas.
DISCUSSION
The practice of establishing an underwriting pool streamlines the process for project fmancing.
Additionally, the pool concept provides the City and Agency with a wide range of fInancial
expertise and it provides for participation by a variety of qualifIed fIrms.
On March 23, 2007, the City issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) for investment banking and
underwriting services. The RFP was advertised in the Star News, a local publication, and many
underwriting fIrms were contacted and invited to participate in this process. In total, ten
proposals from national and regional municipal investment banking and underwriting fIrms were
received.
A four-member panel consisting of the City's Director of Finance, Assistant Director of Finance,
Treasury Manager and the City's fInancial advisor was created for the selection process. After
reviewing all ten proposals, the panel selected nine fIrms to interview. After a comprehensive
evaluation process, the interview panel selected a total of seven fIrms to be included in the pool
as Senior Manager or Co-Manager. Not all fIrms in the pool will participate in each fInancing.
However, it is possible that all of the fIrms will have the opportunity to participate in some
capacity in at least one fInancing.
Following is the alphabetical listing of the selection recommendation and a summary of the
fIrms' prof1les:

ITEM TITLE:
BACKGROUND
In November 1987, Orange Tree Mobilehome Park converted to resident ownership. The Agency
assisted residents in purchasing their park with a $600,000 acquisition loan, which was converted to loans
for lower income residents to help them purchase spaces they had been renting. At that time, 29 residents
either did not wish to purchase their mobilehome spaces or could not afford to at the time. The
Redevelopment Agency agreed to purchase the remaining spaces after the newly-formed homeowner's
association was unable to secure the financing to purchase them. The Redevelopment Low and Moderate
Income Housing Set-aside Fund was used to purchase the remaining spaces. Residents who did not
purchase their space remained as renters in the Park.
It was also the Agency's intent to sell these remaining spaces as new mobilehome buyers moved into the
park, or to sell the spaces to the current residents when they were in the position to buy. Over the last 19
years, 24 spaces have been sold. Proceeds from the sales have been deposited in the Redevelopment Low
and Moderate Income Housing Set-aside Fund. Only five spaces remain in Agency ownership. The
current resident renting space 118 has submitted an offer to purchase. The property is located in Orange
Tree Mobilehome Park at 521 Orange Avenue.
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 significant effect on the environment; therefore, pursuant to Section 15061 (b)(3) of the
State CEQA Guidelines the activity is not subjected to CEQA. Thus, no environmental review is
necessary.

RECOMMENDATION
That the Redevelopment Agency conduct a public hearing, consider testimony, and adopt a resolution

related documents for Space 118 at Orange Tree Mobilehome Park.

BOARDS/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
The Chula Vista Redevelopment Corporation (CYRC) reviewed the proposed real estate purchase
contract and related documents for Space 118 at Orange Tree Mobilehome Park on September 27,
2007. A verbal summary of the CYRC's action will be provided.
DISCUSSION
On August 27, 2007, Celia Virginia Camacho and Edward John Camacho Jr. submitted an offer to the
Community Development Department to purchase space 118 for $43,000. The land value of the property
has been appraised at $43,000. Staff recommends that the Agency accept the offer of$43,000, because of
the Agency's desire to sell the spaces.
Ibis is a request to authorize the Community Development Director to execute a real estate purchase
contract (attached) and related documents as approved by the City Attorney's office for the sale of Space
118 at Orange Tree Mobilehome Park.
California Health and Safety Code, Article II, Section 33431 requires a public hearing to consider a
sale of agency-owned property without public bids. Staff believes that the proposed sale is appropriate
because the sales price is consistent with the fair market value of the property.
DECISION MAKER CONFLICT
Staff has reviewed the property holdings of the Redevelopment Agency and has found no property
holdings within 500 feet of the boundaries of the property which is the subject of this action.
FISCAL IMPACT
Proceeds of the sale, less the estimated closing costs of approximately $800, will be deposited into the
Agency's Low and Moderate Income Housing Set-aside Fund for further use in providing affordable
housing programs within the City.
