Resolution /p#6 Approving agreement between the City
ITEM TITLE: of Chula Vista and the County of San Diego for the
installation and maintenance of median landscaping on
Orange Avenue from Hilltop Drive to the west 600 feet

On February 24, 1981, by Resolution No. 10401, Council accepted
the median landscaping on Orange Avenue from Connelly Avenue to
Oleander Avenue located within the City. A portion of that
segment of Orange Avenue (between Hilltop Drive and 600 feet
westerly of Hilltop Drive) is in the unincorporated portion of
the County and was not included in the City project.
Council had previously directed staff to contact the County for
participation in our project. The County is now willing to
install the median landscaping on their portion of Orange Avenue
if the City agrees to maintain the landscaping. It is my
RECOMMENDATION: That Council adopt the resolution approving the
agreement and authori zing the Mayor to execute such agreement on
behalf of the City.
BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: Not applicable.
DISCUSSION:
Under this agreement, the County will at its own expense, install
the missing textured concrete median landscaping and irrigation
facil i ties on Orange Avenue in accordance wi th landscaping plans
prepared and approved by the Ci ty Landscape Archi teet. The
County further agrees to complete the work within ninety (90)
days, weather permitting, following execution of this agreement.
The City will, upon its completion, maintain the landscaping at
its own expense.
The County is able to provide a capital expenditure from the
block grant program but has no funds for continued maintenance. It
is likely that this section of the County will annex someday to
Chula Vista since it is included in a relatively small island
(i.e.. surrounded virtually on all sides by the City).
Therefore, if the area annexes to the City in the near future,
the City would save future construction costs. If the area
incorporates into the proposed new city, the agreement would
become void and future maintenance of that area would be the
responsibility of the new city.

In summary, for the following reasons I recommend approval of the
resol ution:
1) This project will greatly enhance our project by completing
a 600 foot missing link and,
2) will save the City a possible future expenditure of $ln,OOO
should the area annex to the City and,
3) maintenance responsibility is estimated at only $400 per
year and,
4) our maintenance responsibility will cease should this area
incorpora"te into a new city.
