WHEREAS, the level of development activity in the City has dropped precipitously
during the past 4-5 years; and
WHEREAS, as a result development related workload and revenues are insufficient to
support current development services staffing and budget levels; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has previously established a policy that development must
pay for itself; and
WHEREAS, a reduction in force is necessary in order to mitigate a projected budget
deficit in the Development Services Fund of $0.8 million; and
WHEREAS, revenues being generated through the City's abandoned property program
are projected to be sufficient to support two additional Code Enforcement Officer positions; and
WHEREAS, filling these positions internally will reduce by two the number of employee
layoffs resulting from the reduction in force in the Development Services Fund.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Chula
Vista does hereby amend the personnel services budget of the Planning and Building Department
by adding two Code Enforcement Officer positions and appropriating $133,000 based upon
higher than anticipated revenue from the residential abandoned property program.
