At that time, i t was expected that the transportation planning computer model runs performed by SANDAG as part of the Otay Mesa Task Force Study would be used as the basis for this general plan work. However, during the review of PRC's land use scenarios it has become apparent that this computer modeling will not accurately reflect PRC's proposed growth scenarios for the Eastern Territories unless modified. Approval of the attached amendment to the consultant's contract will authorize this modification and allow the General Plan Update to proceed on schedule. • RECOMMENDATION: That Council: 1. Adopt the resolution approving an amendment to the contract for the preparation of the Circulation Element of the General Plan; and 2. Appropriate $7,000 from the unappropriated balance of the Eastlake I Development Impact Fund for the additional work. BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: Not applicable. DISCUSSION: The consultants for the General Plan Update will be developing at least three land use scenarios and at least three alternative circulation networks for the Chula Vista Sphere of Influence. These scenarios will be input into SANDAG's land use/trip generation model which was developed by the Otay Mesa Task Force. It was originally assumed that the Transportation Analysis Zone (TAZ) System which was developed for and used in the SANDP.G modeling for the Otay Mesa Study would be able to accommodate the land use scenarios developed by PRC. However, it is now apparent that this TAZ system must be restructured in order to accurately reflect the proposed land use scenarios that PRC has developed for Central Chula Vista and the Eastern Territories. At the suggestion of • Page 2, Item 5 • Meeting Date~7~'T SANDAG/J HK and at the City's request, JHK has restructured the Otay TAZ map to establish new TAZ boundaries and will assign the land use projections associated with each PRC scenario to the revised TAZ system. This work is critical to SANDAG~s computer modeling process in order to produce computer model runs which accurately reflect each proposed growth scenario. The output from these computer model runs will then be analyzed and used to develop a final land use plan and circulation network. Additional funding to cover the consultant's increased scope of work amounts to $7,000. Since this modification to the TAZ system is necessary to reflect land use scenarios developed for the Eastern Territories, it is appropriate that Eastlake I Development Impact Funds be used for this additional work.
