CLAIMS
The City has exhausted its five one-year contract extensions included in the existing
contract for third-party administration of its workers' compensation claims. Due to the
cost, financial and operational, of changing vendors at this time it is recommended that it

(Human Resources Director)
Staff recommendation: Council adopt the resolution.

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 proposed project

DISCUSSION
In July of 2007 vandals set fire to and completely destroyed two City vehicles, two pieces of
park maintenance equipment and did an estimated $100,000 worth of damage to the Park Facility
Storage building, it's contents, security fencing and concrete slab.
The cost to replace and repair these City assets is covered by insurance. The insurance provider,
McLarens Young International, requires the insured (City) to secure replacement and repairs, and
provides payment for these expenses. Over the past several months, City staff has replaced the
lost equipment and received payments into an insurance settlement fund (MTVPR 08). Included
in this fund is the estimated cost for repairs to the park storage facility.
In January 2008, eight qualified fire restoration companies were contacted and requested to
attend a mandatory job site visit to review the damages and receive the informal bid packages.
Four companies of the contacted eight attended the site visit, with only two qualified companies
returning completed bid documents by the specified date. The low bidder's documents when
opened were found to be incomplete. Able Restoration, the low bidder, was thereby notified of
the deficiency and of the bid rejection. The second low bidder, Luth & Turly Inc's bid was
complete, within 1 % of the insurance company's estimate and therefore accepted.
However, City contracting practices require that a minimum of three companies is necessary for
bid comparison and fair practices with all informal bids. In order to branch out and attract more
companies from the construction industry, a formal bid process was necessary. Staff re-
organized the contract documents and all necessary preparations to have the "Montevalle Park
Fire Repair, 840 Duncan Ranch Road, in the City of Chula Vista (MTVPR08)" project
advertised. To ensure qualified Contractors understood the requirements of the contract, a
mandatory job walk was conducted one week before the bids were to be received. Questions and
detailed discussions on the project's task was the main objective for the site visit. City staff was
available to answer any questions during the bid process.
On May 6, 2008 the Director of Engineering and General Services' received one bid for this
project. Different guidelines have been established with a formal bidding process and the
acceptance of one bid is allowable. RMV Construction submitted a bid of $68, 961.78. The bid
is below the Engineer's estimate of $75,000 by $6,038.22 or approximately 8%. The Engineer's
estimate was prepared by City staff and was based on average unit prices for similar types of
work completed recently. City staff will incorporate the unit price bid results received into a
database for future project cost estimates.
Because RMV Construction, Inc. has not performed on any jobs for the City, staff carefully
checked the references that the contractor submitted. The reference check asked RMV
Construction, Inc. to provide information for any work similar to this repair project. A minimum
of five references was required and the work performed for the five companies had to be similar
in tasks performed and dollar amount. Additionally, all work used for reference purposes had to
be performed within the last five years. The contractor met all the reference requirements. All
references provided were verified and their work has been satisfactory. RMV Construction, Inc.
carries clear and current licenses for both a General A (General Engineering License) and a
General B (General Building License) Contractor's License. All the requirements have been met
by RMV Construction, Inc. and their bid package had no errors. Thus, RMV Construction, Inc.

of San Diego was declared responsive and clear to perform the necessary work. Staff is
recommending awarding the contract to RMV Construction, Inc. in the amount of $68,961.78
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 is an impact to the General Fund of $5,000 for the per insurance claim deductible,
however, the remaining portion of the funding will be recovered through the claim process at
project completion in Fiscal Year 2008-09. Building repair amounts are paid by insurer at
Actual Cash Value. Upon completion of repair, the City will make claim for:
. Balance of Replacement Cost (Actual cost of repair incurred less amounts paid)
. Administrative Overhead incurred in construction oversight

A. Contract Amount $68,961.78
B. Contingencies (10% of contact amount) $6,896.00

DISCUSSION
Article XIIIB of the California Constitution, approved by the voters in 1979, imposed the
concept of spending limits on local governments. This Constitutional provision and related
implementing legislation specifies that annual increases in appropriations financed from
"Proceeds of Taxes" are limited to a base year (1978/1979) amount increased annually by an
inflation factor comprised of the change in population of the City combined with the greater of
the change in new non-residential construction or the change in the California per capita personal
income. By definition, "Proceeds of Taxes" includes such revenues as property taxes, sales and
3-1
JUNE 3, 2008, Item~
Page 2 of 3
use taxes, utility users taxes, transient occupancy taxes, and state subventions. Revenues from
other sources like fees/charges and federal grants are considered "Non-Proceeds of Taxes" and
are not subject to the annual spending limit. This calculation has always been perfunctory for the
City of Chula Vista, since the proceeds of taxes for the City are far less than the statutory
appropriation limit.
The State Department of Finance and the San Diego County Assessor's Office are charged with
providing the data necessary for local jurisdictions to establish their appropriation limit.
According to these sources, for purposes of the Fiscal Year 2008/2009 calculation, the
population increased 1.51 % and California per capita personal income increased by 4.29%. New
non-residential construction increased 16.86% and was used in the formula to compute the limit
since this increase was higher than the increase in California per capita personal income.
The Fiscal Year 2008/2009 Appropriation Limit has been calculated as follows:
Fiscal Year 2007/2008 Appropriation Limit
$511,957,324
Increased by an inflation factor composed
of the increases in population and new
non-residential construction

RESOLUTION NO. 2008-
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
CHULA VISTA ESTABLISHING THE APPROPRlA TIONS LIMIT
FOR THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA FOR FISCAL YEAR 2008/
2009
WHEREAS, Article XIIIB of the California Constitution, approved by the voters in 1979,
imposed the concept of spending limits on local governments; and
WHEREAS, this Constitutional provision and related implementing legislation specifies that
annual increases in appropriations financed from "Proceeds of Taxes" are limited to a base year
(1978-1979) amount increased annually by an inflation factor comprised of the change in population
of the City combined with the greater of the change in new non-residential construction or the
change in the California per capita personal income; and
WHEREAS, by definition, "Proceeds of Taxes" includes such revenues as property taxes,
sales and use taxes, utility users taxes, transient occupancy taxes, and state subventions; and
WHEREAS, revenues from other sources like fees/charges and federal grants are considered
"Non-Proceeds of Taxes" and are not subject to the annual spending limit; and
WHEREAS, this calculation has always been perfunctory for the City ofChula Vista, since
the proceeds of taxes for the City are far less than the statutory appropriation limit; and
WHEREAS, the State Department of Finance and the San Diego County Assessor's Office
are charged with providing the data necessary for local jurisdictions to establish their appropriation
limit; and
WHEREAS, according to these sources, for purposes of the Fiscal Year 2008/2009
calculation, the population increased 1.51 percent and California per capita personal income
increased by 4.29 percent; and
WHEREAS, new non-residential construction increased 16.86 percent and was used in the
formula to compute the limit since this increase was higher than the increase in California per capita
personal income; and
WHEREAS, the Fiscal Year 2008/2009 Appropriation Limit has been calculated to be
$607,303,566; and
WHEREAS, the "Proceeds of Taxes" as included in the Fiscal Year 2008/2009 Proposed
Budget that are subject to the appropriations limit are estimated to be $92,391,854; and
WHEREAS, the City has what is referred to as an appropriation "gap" of$514,911,712
($607,303,566 - $92,391,854); and

ITEM TITLE:
4/STHS VOTE: YES D NO 0
SUMMARY
The City has exhausted its five one-year contract extensions included in the existing
contract for third-party administration of its workers' compensation claims, Due to the cost,
financial and operational, of changing vendors at this time it is recommended that it is in the
best interest of the City that the competitive bid process for this contract be deferred for one
year and that the existing contract be extended to cover that period,
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Not Applicable,
RECOMMENDATION
That Council adopt the subject resolution.
DISCUSSION
TRISTAR Risk Management has administered the City's workers' compensation claims
since 1995. In 2002, the City solicited proposals for third-party claims administration
services. As a result of that solicitation the City entered into a one-year contract with
TRISTAR Risk Management with a provision for five one-year extensions. The City has
exhausted the extensions included in the existing agreement.
4-1
JUNE 3, 2008 ITEM ~
Page 2 of2
The City has been extremely satisfied with the services provided by TRlST AR and staff
believes that it is highly unlikely we would [md a firm that could provide the same level of
service at a price that could justify the additional expense of changing administrators
(transferring data bases, system/process development) nor the disruption of service/care of
our employees, especially during these times of fiscal uncertainty and limited resources.
Staff will commence the request for proposal process in March 2009 for services going
forward.
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)(l) is not applicable to this decision.
FISCAL IMPACT
TRlST AR has agreed to continue the eXlstmg agreement under the same terms and
conditions. The annual contract price for these services is $287,500. Funding for this
contract is included in the proposed Fiscal Year 2008/2009 Budget.

examiner, one quarter time (10 hours/week) medical only examiner and one half-
time (20 hours/week) claims assistant.
This Addendum is not intended to change any other provision of the Agreement
between the parties.

SUMMARY
On June 5, 2007, Council approved the results of the Middle Management classification
study, which was the last phase of the on-going project that reviewed all classified positions
throughout the City. Now that the study is completed, one of the findings was the need to
separate the Middle Managers into two distinct groups, Middle Managers and Professionals
based on the level of overall management and administrative responsibilities of each
position.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The Environmental Review Coordinator has reviewed the proposed actlvlY 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 because it does not include a physical change to the environment; therefore,
pursuant to Section l5060(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.
BOARDS/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
Not Applicable.

DISCUSSION
In June 2007, Council approved the results of a comprehensive classification study of
professional and middle management positions in the Middle Management group. The
purpose of the study was to conduct a detailed analysis of each position; determine
essential job functions for each classification; develop and/or revise class specifications
to ensure that they were current, accurate and in compliance with the Americans with
Disabilities Act; allocate each position to an appropriate classification; collect and
analyze labor market data; and assess internal salary relationships for any new or revised
classifications. Unit designation was not part of the study conducted in 2007, however,
Human Resources staff conducted follow-up analysis of each classification.
As a result of the analysis conducted, it was determined that many of the classifications
designated as Middle Management positions did not meet the term "Middle
Management" as defined in the Government Code under the State Employer Relations
Act (SERA). Although the City is not bound by the SERA, we have used it as guidance
in defining various groups. The Government Code defines a "Managerial Employee" as
any employee having significant responsibility for formulating or administering agency
or departmental policies and programs or administering an agency or department and
exercising independent judgment and discretion in the duties performed. The City's
current makeup of the Middle Management group has encompassed both supervisory and
professional classifications. Many of these classifications do not perform functions that
fall within the criteria set forth in the Government Code definition of "Managerial
Employee." Therefore, because the current Middle Manager group has been defined
broadly, it is over-inclusive. In addition, the Meyers Milias Brown Act defines a
Professional as those who are engaged in work requiring specialized knowledge and
skills attained through a recognized course of instruction and exercise independent
judgment and discretion in the course oftheir work.
Human Resources staff is recommending creating an additional group called the
Professional Unit. This unit would more closely align classifications based on the above
definition.
Two subgroups would also be required to further appropriately designate classifications
within both the Middle Management and Professional groups. These subgroups would be
"Confidential" and "Unclassified". State Employer Relations Act defines "Confidential
employee" as any employee who is required to develop or present management positions
with respect to employer-employee relations or whose duties normally require access to
confidential information contributing significantly to the development of management
positions. The City Charter sections 500 (a) and 701 define "Unclassified" positions. In
general, unclassified employees serve in an "at-will" status. The Charter states these
positions serve "at the pleasure of' the City Councilor City Manager and are not covered
by the Civil Service Rules and Regulations. The City Manager has the authority to
designate management positions to the unclassified service.
5-2
JUNE 3, 2008, Item~
Page 3 of6
Currently, 105 classifications are designated to the Middle Management group. Of these
105 classifications, 41 classifications would remain in the Middle Management group,
2 classifications would be designated as Middle Management (Confidential),
4 classifications as Middle Management (Unclassified), 45 classifications designated as
Professional, 4 classifications as Professional (Confidential), and 9 classifications as
Professional (Unclassified).
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.
FISCAL IMPACT
No fiscal impact.

SUMMARY
The Police Department and South Bay Community Services have been working in

community. Adoption of this resolution will accept a grant from the Governor's Office of
Emergency Services for Domestic Violence Response Team services and approve a
contractual agreement with South Bay Community Services to provide services for
domestic violence cases.

DISCUSSION
Since 1985, the Chula Vista Police Department (CVPD) and South Bay Community
Services (SBCS) have partnered to address issues with juveniles. And since 1997, CVPD
has been working in a partnership with SBCS to provide direct services to domestic
violence victims and protect the children from abuse. The partnership between CVPD
and SBCS resulted in the formation of a 24-hour/7-day per week Domestic Violence
6-1
06/03/2008, Item~
Page 2 of3
Response Team (DVRT). In order to provide more consistent and intensified follow-up
services, the DVRT program was expanded in October 2003 with the addition of two
full-time SBeS Advocates working on site at eVPD. A federal grant administered by the
Governor's Office of Emergency Services (OES) has funded advocacy services since
fiscal year 2003/2004, and the Police Department has been notified of the grant approval
for the period of January 1,2008 to December 31, 2008, subject to available federal
funding. This award is being funded with Violence Against Women Act (VAWA)
Federal Fiscal Year 2007 and 2008 funds. If the federal funds appropriated for the
purposes of the grant award are reduced or eliminated by the Federal government, OES
may reduce the grant award upon written notice. Services provided by the two
Advocates are contingent upon grant funding to support the program.
Because of the established working relationship with SBCS, eVPD is seeking to waive
the consultant selection process and approve the contractual agreement with SBCS to
provide services for domestic violence cases. SBCS has tailored their programs to meet
the needs of the City and their experience, qualifications and community presence make
them a unique service provider.
The Domestic Violence Response Team consists of detectives from the Family Protection
Unit of the Police Department and Advocates from South Bay Community Services. The
Advocates work closely with the Detectives, provide more intensified follow-up services
after the violent incident, and help prevent the need for further intervention by law
enforcement. SBCS' Advocates are mandated to provide 24-hour immediate mobile
crisis intervention in response to 9 11 calls to the CVPD on all family violence cases
involving children. Immediate response is construed to mean 20 minutes and current
average response time is 19-22 minutes. SBCS emergency staff meets CVPD officers at
the scene of domestic violence crimes to assess for child abuse as well as offer services to
victims. Additionally, eVPD has dedicated personnel from the Family Protection Unit to
arrive in such cases. This dedicated staffing will allow both eVPD and the SBes
Advocate to have increased access to victims after the incident. The following business
day, the Advocate will follow-up with victims (alone or with a CVPD Detective), set up
home visits with those not sheltered and provide case management and additional
services to those placed in shelter. These visits will be coordinated with a Detective,
depending on the severity of the abuse and if the perpetrator is still at large. Other SBCS
Advocate services include safety planning, support groups and counseling, Temporary
Restraining Order information and assistance, and transportation to a domestic violence
shelter.
Fiscal Year 2006/2007 DVRT Accomplishments
Investigated 1,787 cases of suspected domestic violence
Made contact and offer advocacy to 100% of victims with cases assigned to the
unit
Provided advocacy, including crisis intervention, resource and referral assistance,
emergency assistance, and/or restraining order assistance to 973 victims
Provided 8 training sessions to officers, highlighting the DVRT process as well as
other agency-wide services available to the community

FISCAL IMPACT
The grant funding from the Governor's Office of Emergency Services in the amount of

been exploring various debt-refunding options, which would generate cash flow savings to the
General Fund, With the assistance of Harrell & Co. and EJ. De La Rosa. the following debt
refunding option was identified and presented to the City Council on January 22, 2008. -

RECOMMENDATION
A. The Redevelopment Agency adopt Resolutions A and B.
B. The Council adopt Resolutions C and D.
C. The Public Financing Authority adopt Resolution E.
BOARDS/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
The Finance Director/Treasurer presented the financing plan to the Chula Vista Redevelopment
Corporation Board members at the March 13, 2008 meeting at which time the CVRC
recommended that the City proceed v.ith the refunding and raising of funds to repay a portion of
the outstanding General Fund loan.
DISCUSSION
As part of the Fiscal Year 2007/2008 budget balancing process, the Finance Department has
been exploring various debt-refunding options, which would generate cash flow savings to the
General Fund. The recommended refunding would provide for a loan repayment from the
Redevelopment Agency of approximately $4.3 million as well as funding for street
improvements of approximately $800,000.
2000 Tax Allocation Bonds (TAB) - Refunding
In May 2000, the City/Redevelopment Agency approved the issuance of$17.0 million in Merged
Project Area Tax Allocation Bonds to repay outstanding interfund loans, raise capital for
projects, eliminate deficit balances in the project areas as well as restructure cash flow to provide
sufficient funding for staff and operating costs on an ongoing basis. As of June 30, 2007, there
was $15.5 million in outstanding bonds with a net interest cost of 5 .32% and a final maturity date
of 2030.
Based on the financial analysis conducted by the financing team, it appears that through the
proposed refunding the Agency could improve cash flow to the Redevelopment Agency by
approximately $250,000 armually over the next 6 years. The improved cash flow would be
timely because the Legislative Analyst's Office has proposed to the Legislature that it take $1.2
billion from Redevelopment Agencies over the next 5 years to offset the State's obligation to the
schools in order to help reduce the State's budget deficit. This proposed refunding would help
mitigate the impact of the proposed ERAF payments.
The new debt would be an estimated $21.01 million with an estimated net interest cost of 4.75%
and the final maturity date extended to 2036, which would take advantage of the entire life of the
project area. After refinancing the 2000 Bonds, there would be net bond proceeds of $4,532,000
to be allocated as follows.

RDA Street Improvements
On April 4, 2006, Congressman Bob Filner notified the City of Chula Vista that the City was
awarded $300,000 in SAFETEA-LU a federal grant. The purpose of the grant is to enhance
public infrastructure and provide amenities to support key catalyst projects and future
redevelopment activity and to increase walkability and multi-modal transportation in the Third
Avenue corridor between E Street and H Street. The Third Avenue Streetscape Masterplan will
respond to the urban form objectives and development regulations and design guidelines found
in the City's General Plan and Urban Core Specific Plan. This is a "matching fund" program,
which requires that the City provide a portion of the funding to complete the project.
The implementation of the Third Avenue Streetscape Masterplan will consist of two phases. The
first is to incorporate community outreach and design recommendations culminating in the Plan.
The second phase will be the construction of the capital improvements. The Redevelopment
Agency is proposing to use $800,000 for the second phase of the plan and will retwn at a later
date for the appropriation.
RDA Loan Repayment to General Fund
As of June 30, 2007, the Redevelopment Agency owed the General Fund $25.4 million related to
the Town Centre II Certificates of Participation. Beginning in Fiscal Year 2007/2008 the debt
service payments have been paid directly by the Redevelopment Agency's Merged Project Area.
In order to reduce the outstanding loan and to assist in relieving the City's fiscal stress a loan
repayment of $4.3 million ($3.7 million 2000 TABS and $550,000 from the RDA reserves) from
the Redevelopment Agency to the General Fund is recommended.

For federal tax purposes bond proceeds need to be spent within three years. Repayment of
Agency interfund loans are not treated as expenditures of bond proceeds, for those purposes,
expenditures of bond proceeds will be tracked through the timely capital expenditures of repaid
funds.
DECISION MAKER CONFLICT
Staff has reviewed the property holdings of the City Council, Redevelopment Agency and Public
Financing Authority members and has found a conflict exists with Council/Agency/Authority
members Jerry Rindone, Rudy Ramirez, John McCann and Steve Castaneda who having
holdings within 500 feet of the boundaries of the property. which is the subject of this action.
The Council Member conflicts are as follows:
1. Council Members McCann, Rindone. and Ramirez have conflicts with Resolutions A, B,
C,D&E.
2. Council Member Castaneda has conflicts with Resolutions A, C, D and E.
FISCAL IMP ACT
Redevelopment Agency Fund
There would be a net impact to the RDA reserves of $550,000 in fiscal year 2007/2008 but a
cash flow savings over the next six years of$1.5 million due to the refunding of the 2000 TABS.
The overall refunding would result in a 1 % net present value cost to the Redevelopment Agency
of$125,000 due to the up front cash flow savings and the extension of the maturity.
General Fund
There would be a positive impact to the General Fund reserves of $550,000 m Fiscal Year
2007/2008 related to the RDA loan repayment.
The 2000 TAB refunding would also provide funds for the General Fund obligation related to the
PFDIF of approximately $1.3 million. This would save the General Fund approximately
$786,000 in interest cost by avoiding an interfund loan. In addition, the payment of the
outstanding loan from the PFDIF to the General Fund related to the Animal Shelter would save
the General Fund $377,000 in interest costs over the remaining term of the loan (12 years) and
provide for budgetary savings of$103,517 beginning in Fiscal Year 2008/2009.

Public Facilities Development Impact Fund !PFDIF)
There would be a positive impact to the PFDIF fund in Fiscal Year 2007/2008 of $3.7 million
($1.3 million General Fund Obligations, $0.9 million Payment of Animal Shelter Loan, $1.5
million in reimbursement for PFDIF projects), which would assist in mitigating the projected
cash deficit of $6.0 million at the end of fiscal year 2007/2008.
Mitigating the projected cash deficit in the PFDIF fund is critical in order to ensure that the
PFDIF allocable share of existing bonded debt service can continue to be met without impacting
the General Fund reserves or having to pursue other interfund loan options.
2000 TAB Costs ofIssuance
All costs of issuance, including the cost of the underwriter, bond counsel, disclosure documents
etc. will be paid from the bond proceeds. The fees are summarized as follows:
. Financial Advisor - A fee of $77,000 is contingent on refunding of the bonds plus
expenses.
. UndernTiter - The fee is .82% of the par amount of the bonds or $ 1 73,000 based on an
estimated bond sizing of$21.01 million.
. Bond Counsel - A fee of approximately $80,000, which includes $30,000 for disclosure
counsel work, based on an existing two-party agreement.
. Bond Insurance - $396,000
. Other Costs - $53,000 (rating fees, printing, etc.)

Beyer.
On September 15,1998, the City Council approved il contract with Sutro and Company for financial
advisory services to assist in formulating and implementing a financing plan for the anintal care
facility and other capital improvement projects.
On October 6, 1998, the City Council approved a contract with architectural firms Jackson and Ryan
from Texas, and Eric Davy from San Diego for the design of the new animal shelter in south Chula
Vista, Design of the new facility is nearing completion and construction is expected to begin later

On May 18, 1999, the City Council approved the preliminary financing plan and proposed design
for construction of the new animal care facility.
On January 25, 2000, the City Council approved the rejecting of bids and the re-advertisement of
the project as a result of inconsistencies with the bid proposals, per Resolution No. 2000-026.
DISCUSSION:
The existing animal shelter is currently outdated and under capacity to serve the City's projected
population growth. The animal shelter is being relocated from Otay Valley Road to the intersection
of Beyer Way and Fourth Avenue.
The project is to construct a 7,800 square foot building with offices and medical facilities. The
animal shelter will include 84 kennel spaces and petting areas. The work generally includes grading
of the existing site, construction of the building, landscaping and the construction of all
appurtenances as may be necessary to render the project complete and workable, however
equipment and furniture costs are not included.
A pre-bid meeting was held on November 2, 1999, in order to review the contract requirements and
to receive questions regarding the specifications in the bid documents. The contractors present
raised several concerns during the meeting, and issues were addressed through Addendums #1 and
#2. On December I, 1999, fourteen (14) sealed bid proposals for the project were received.
However, based on the bid proposals submitted by the Contractors, it was apparent that the
Contractors did not fully understand the requirements of the bid alternates. Due to the
inconsistencies all bids were rejected. The project was re-advertised on January 29, 2000 with
modifications to the bid specifications and the deletion of five of the six the bid alternates.
Bids were received from 12 contractors as follows:

Staff received bids for the proposed work. The low bid, submitted by C & S Doctor, Inc., is below
the Architect's estimate of$2,100,000.00 by $195,144.00 or 9.3%. The Architect's estimate was
based on bids received for similar proj ects, It is our opinion that staff received adequate bids for the
proj ect.
The bid prices from the previous fourteen (14) bid proposals that were rejected ranged from $1.8
million to $2.7 million with a difference of $900,000 compared to a range difference of $390,000
for the 12 recent bidders. Although the $1,904,856 bid price of the contract increased $105,900 from
the previous bid that was rejected ($1,799,000), stafffeels that the most recent bids reflected a more
quantified bid, based on the more narrow range of the bid proposals.
The project specifications required that all contractors have the relevant experience in doing a silnilar
project. We have contacted the references provided by C & S Doctor, Inc, and determined that they
have the relevant experience necessary to complete this project as defined in the specification. In
addition, we have verified their license and the Subcontractors and determined that it is current and
in good standing. We therefore recommend that the contract for the "Chula Vista Animal Care
Facility, at 130 Beyer Way in the City ofChula Vista, CA (GG-158)" project be awarded to C & S
Doctor, Inc., San Diego, CA. C & S Doctor, Inc, is currently completing work on the construction
of the Otay Recreation Center, located at 3554 Main Street. The performance of C & S Doctor, Inc,
on the project has been satisfactory, despite working simultaneously on a similar project with
Fallbrook High School for the construction of a gymnasium,
The construction of the Animal Care Facility is to begin work on March 27, 2000 and last for 180
working days, The project is scheduled to be completed on December 11, 2000,
Included in the construction oftbe Animal Care Facility are three (3) banks of28 kennels eacb for
a total of 84 kennels, Current findings indicate that there will be enough capacity to accommodate
the current animal volume. The City will continue to pursue opportunities that will enable the sale
of its animal control services to other jurisdictions, Should sufficient revenues materialize through
contract with other cities or other opportunities, staff will return to Council with a recommendation
to complete a fourth bank of kennels.

FISCAL IMPACT:
The Animal Shelter is included as a component of the Corporation Yard in the Public Facilities
Development Impact Fee (PFDIF). Listed below are the estimated Animal Shelter costs, followed
by the funding sources and amounts needed for the project. In the 1999-00 CIP budget, the
estimated construction costs were $2,021,838, which is $148,081 lower than the current projected
construction costs of$2,169,856. The costs are higher due to having a 10% versus 5% contingency
($95,000 additional), a $15,000 increase in anticipated material testing costs, and approximately
$40,000 in higher staff costs. Additional funding of$68,031 is needed also to cover the City's share
of the entire project costs, and not just for the construction cost.

As shown in the funding costs, an appropriation of$70,927 from the PFDIF-Corp Yard is needed
to fund the remaining Development Share obligation. An additional $81,525 is shown as General
Fund In-Kind Services for staff costs associated with design, inspection, and administration, as well
as project management. The total General Fund In-Kind Services is $115,000, with $50,000 for the
Public Works staff costs, and $65,000 for the Police staff project management costs. In addition,
an appropriation of an additional $1,181,960 from the PFDIF-Corp Yard is needed, as a loan to the
General Fund, to cover the City's share of the cost. (Of this amount, $1,113,929 is needed for the
share of the construction cost, per the table on page 3.) The Finance Director and Special Projects
7-13
Page 6, Item 7
Meeting Date 3/7/2000
Manager have recommended that the General Fund portion be funded with a loan from the PFDIF-
Corporation Yard component, to be paid back, with interest, over a 20-year period. The annual
impact to the General Fund over the 20 years would be roughly $100,000 per year, including a total
interest cost of $864,416 over the term of the loan.. This proposal is consistent with earlier actions
whereby the General Fund loaned funds to the PFDIF, and was paid back with interest. This
proposal is different from the project submittal in the 1999-00 ClP Budget, where it was initially
proposed to fund the City share with bond proceeds, to be paid back, with interest, from Residential
Construction Tax funds. By using an inter-fund loan, the project will have no bond issuance costs
and lower financing costs, thereby reducing the financial impact to the City and the PFDIF.

RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
CHULA VISTA REGARDING ITS INTENTION TO
REIMBURSE EXPENDITURES FROM THE PROCEEDS
OF TAX-EXEMPT OBLIGATIONS
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City ofChula Vista (the "City") desires to reimburse
its General Fund to finance the costs of capital improvements eligible to be funded from
amounts in the City's Public Facilities Development Impact Fee Fund (the "Project");
WHEREAS, the City intends to reimburse its expenditures for and to finance the
acquisition of the Project or portions of the Project with the proceeds of obligations to be
issued by the Redevelopment Agency of the City of Chula Vista, the interest upon which is
excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes (the "Obligations"); and
WHEREAS, prior to the issuance of the Obligations the City desires to incur
certain expenditures with respect to the Project from available monies of the City which
expenditures are desired to be reimbursed by the City from a portion of the proceeds of the
sale of the Obligations;
NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Chula Vista DOES
HEREBY RESOLVE, ORDER AND DETERMINE AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. The City hereby states its intention and reasonably expects to
reimburse the Project costs incurred prior to the issuance of the Obligations with proceeds
of the Obligations. Those Project costs will include capital improvements eligible to be
funded from amounts in the City's Public Facilities Development Impact Fee Fund.
SECTION 2. The reasonably expected maximum principal amount of the
Obligations is $5,000,000.
.
SECTION 3. This resolution is being adopted not later than 60 days after the
payment of the original expenditures with respect to the Project (the "Expenditures Date or
Dates").
SECTION 4. Except as described below, the expected date of issue of the
Obligations will be within eighteen months of the later of the Expenditure Date or Dates
and the date the Project is placed in service; provided, the reimbursement may not be
made more than three years after the Expenditure Date.
SECTION 5. Proceeds of the Obligations to be used to reimburse for Project costs
are not expected to be used, within one year of reimbursement, directly or indirectly to pay debt
service with respect to any obligation (other than to pay current debt service coming due within
the next succeeding one year period on any tax-exempt obligation of the City (other than the

Obligation issue are, or are reasonably expected to be reserved, allocated on a long-term basis,

financial policies with respect to the Project costs. To the best of our knowledge, this
City Council is not aware of the previous adoption of official intents by the City that have
been made as a matter of course for the purpose of reimbursing expenditures and for which
tax-exempt obligations have not been issued.
SECTION 7. The limitations described in Section 3 and Section 4 do not apply to
(a) costs of issuance of the Obligations, (b) an amount not in excess of the lesser of
$100,000 or five percent (5%) of the proceeds of the Obligations, or (c) any preliminary

other than land acquisition, site preparation, and similar costs incident to commencement
of construction, not in excess of twenty percent (20%) of the aggregate issue price of the

SECTION 8. This resolution is adopted as official action of the City in order to
comply with Treasury Regulation S 1.150-2 and any other regulations of the Internal
Revenue Service relating to the qualification for reimbursement of City expenditures incurred
prior to the date of issue of the Obligations, is part of the City's official proceedings, and
will be available for inspection by the general public at the main administrative office of the
City.
SECTION 9. All the recitals in this Resolution are true and correct and this City
Council so finds, determines and represents.
