ITEM TITLE:
SUBMlmD BY:
On February 26, 1985, Council opened a pUblic hearing and commenced
consideration of an ordinance relative to the creation of a Sewerage Facility
Participation Fee. Concerns were expressed by Mr. Michael Spata representing
United Enterprises' interests relative to: (1) extension of trunk sewers into
his client's holdings, and (2) the need for environmental processing of the
ordinance because of its growth inducing aspects.
Council decided to continue its hearing and consideration of the ordinance for
three weeks until March 19, 1985.
Duri ng the i nterveni ng time, staff has met wi th Uni ted Enterpri ses
representatives and has modified both the Fee Study and the proposed ordinance
in a manner designed to minimize or eliminate the expressed concerns.
RECOMMENDATION: That Council place the ordinance on First Reading.
BOARDS/ClJIIIIISSIONS REC()IIIENDATION: Not applicable.
DISCUSSION:
Chul a Vi sta is one of very few agenci es whi ch does not impose a charge agai nst
new constructi on for sewage treatment pl ant and/or trunk sewer capaci ty.
Capacity in such facilities is characteristically provided at public expense
and typically allows latitude for community development. It is proposed that
a sewerage facility participation fee be implemented so as to permit the
citizenry to be repaid for the investment to allow development of Chula
Vi sta. The Ci ty Engi neer' s study submi tted to Council on January 22, 1985,
described the justification and basi s of the proposed fee. That study has
been revised and is submitted herewith.
The system of fees proposed is based on a charge of $300 per equival ent
dwelling unit (EDU). EDU equivalencies for many common land uses are included
in the proposed schedule.

The original study included a plat depicting conceptual trunk sewer extensions
to serve the eastern territory as well as various references in the text to
construction of trunk sewer extensions. Both the plat and the various
references have been stricken in the modified study. As originally presented
the study could have been interpreted as being "growth inducing" and therefore
subject to environmental review.
The modified study includes no references to trunk sewer extensions, nor does
it depict conceptual future trunks to serve the eastern territory.
The proposed ordinance has 1 ikewise been

Engineering staff is confident that the modified study and the revised
proposed ordinance have effectively minimized and/or eliminated the causes for
concern previously expressed by United Enterprises' representatives.
