City Engineer
~~
When Rancho Robinhood subdivision was developed a booster system
was installed to provide adequate water pressure for domestic
use. A generator was also installed to provide power to the
booster during fire emergencies. The booster station is owned
and operated by the Sweetwater Authority while the generating
station is o caned and o perated by the City of Chula Vista.
The City Council has budgeted $15,000 in this year's Capital
Im provement Program (Project RC-11) to participate with
Sweetwater Authority in the cost of modifying the booster
station. Upon completion of tthe project, Sweetwater Authority
will accept the entire system for maintenance. It is my
RECOMMENDATION: That Council approve agreement including payment
of $15,000 to Sweetwater Authority and authorize Mayor to sign
said agreement and a Grant of Easement.
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Not applicable.
DISCUSSION:
Since completion of the booster and the generator these
facilities have been operated and maintained separately by the
Sweetwater Authority and the City of Chula Vista.
In order to avoid future duplication of inspection and
maintenance efforts, the respective staffs of the Authority and
Chula Vista propose that the facilities be combined into a single
system to be maintained and operated by the Authority.
The facilities are located within open space under the City's
control. In order to provide a permanent access to them and to
allow Sweetwater to construct appurtenant walls for the combined
facilities, Grants of Easement have been prepared for Council
approval.
The conversion of the separate facilities to a single system
requires the installation of a larger generator and new control
panel along with other wiring and structural work. The City's
share of the cost for this work has been negotiated at $15,000.

Over a period of approximately 5 years, this cost of conversion
will be regained by the City in savings on maintenance costs.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The City's contribution of $15,000 toward this project was
budgeted in the FY 81-82 Capital Improvement Program under project
number RC-11. Once the project is com pleted a savings of
approximately $3,600 per year should be realized.
