DOWNTOWN CHULA VISTA CBD – ASSESSMENT ENGINEER’S REPORT 6 boundaries and, in turn, confer proportionate special benefits to each assessed parcel.
In the case of the DCV CBD, the very nature of the purpose of this CBD is to fund supplemental programs, services and improvements to assessed parcels within the DCV CBD boundaries above and beyond what is being currently funded either via normal tax supported methods or other funding sources. All benefits derived from the assessments to be levied on assessed parcels within the DCV CBD are for services, programs and improvements directly and specially benefiting each individual assessed parcel within the DCV CBD. No DCV CBD funded services, activities or programs will be provided outside of the DCV CBD boundaries.
While every attempt is made to provide DCV CBD services and programs to confer special benefits only to those identified assessed parcels within the DCV CBD. Article XIIID stipulates that the portion of the program costs that are attributable to general benefits must be assigned a value and funded from sources other than assessment revenue. A special benefit does not become or create general benefits if the special benefit creates or produces general benefits, either General benefits might be conferred on parcels within the DCV CBD, or “spillover” onto parcels surrounding the DCV CBD, or to the public at large who might be passing through the DCV CBD with no intention of transacting business within the DCV CBD or interest in the DCV CBD itself.
Assessment engineering experience throughout California has found that general benefits within a given business improvement district tend to range from 2-6% of the total costs. There are three methods that have been used by this Assessment Engineer for determining general and special benefit values within assessment districts:
1) The parcel- by-parcel allocation method
2) The program/activity line-item allocation method, and 3) The composite district overlay determinant method.
A majority of PBID type districts in California for which this Assessment Engineer has provided assessment engineering services in conformance with Article XIIID have used Method #3, the composite district overlay determinant method which will be used for the DCV CBD. This method of computing the value of general benefit involves a composite of three distinct types of general benefit – general benefit to assessed parcels within the DCV CBD, general benefit to the public at large within the DCV CBD and general benefit to parcels outside the DCV CBD.
General Benefit – Assessed Parcels within the DCV CBD
DCV CBD funded programs are narrowly designed and carefully implemented to specially benefit the assessed DCV CBD parcels and are only provided for the special benefit to each and every assessed parcel within the DCV CBD. It is the opinion of this Engineer, based on over 30 years of professional assessment engineering experience and knowledge of similar factors used in similar type business improvement districts throughout California by other Assessment Engineer’ s, that nearly 100% of benefits conferred on the 253 assessed parcels within the DCV CBD are distinct and special. In the case of the DCV CBD, it is projected that there are 0.25% general benefits conferred on these parcels. This high ratio of special benefits to general benefits is because the DCV CBD funded programs and services are specially geared to the unique needs of each parcel within the DCV CBD and are directed specially only to these parcels within the DCV CBD and are in addition to services provided City-wide and to the general public at large.
This concept is further reinforced by the proportionality of special benefits conferred on each parcel within

DOWNTOWN CHULA VISTA CBD – ASSESSMENT ENGINEER’S REPORT 7 the DCV CBD as determined by the special benefit assessment formula as it is applied to the unique and varying property characteristics of each parcel. The computed 0.25% general benefit value on the 253 assessed parcels within the DCV CBD equates to $1,734 or (.25% x $693,762).
Spillover General Benefits to Parcels Outside of DCV CBD While DCV CBD programs and services will not be provided directly to parcels outside the DCV CBD boundaries, it is reasonable to conclude that DCV CBD services may confer an indirect general benefit on parcels adjacent to the DCV CBD boundaries. The California Court of Appeal has previously held that indirect benefits to non-assessed parcels resulting from programs and services provided directly and only to assessed parcels does not in and of itself create a general benefit. Nevertheless, out of an abundance of caution, and in light of certain adjacent parcels, this report analyzes the potential for some general benefit.
An inventory of the DCV CBD boundaries finds that the DCV CBD is immediately surrounded by 140 parcels. Of these, 21 are commercial zoned parcels with commercial uses and 119 are either residentially zoned parcels with residential uses or public or non-profit owned parcels with public or non-profit uses.
The 140 parcels directly outside the DCV CBD boundaries can reasonably be assumed to receive some indirect general benefit as a result of DCV CBD funded programs, services and improvements. Based on over 30 years of assessment engineering experience and knowledge of similar factors used in similar type business improvement districts throughout California by other Assessment Engineer’ s, it is the opinion of this Engineer that a benefit factor of 1.0 be attributed to the 253 assessed parcels within the DCV CBD, a benefit factor of 0.05 be attributed to general benefits conferred on the 21 commercial parcel located adjacent to or across the street from assessed parcels within the DCV CBD, and a benefit factor of 0.005 be attributed to general benefits conferred on the 119 residential or public or non- profit parcels and uses located adjacent to or across the street from assessed parcels within the DCV CBD. The cumulative dollar value of this general benefit type equates to $4,545 ($2,892 + $1,653) as delineated in the following Table:

General Benefit - Public At Large
While the DCV CBD funded programs are narrowly designed and carefully implemented to specially benefit the assessed DCV CBD parcels, are provided directly and exclusively to assessed parcels, and are only provided for the special benefit to each and every assessed parcel within the DCV CBD, these programs also provide general benefits to the public at large within the DCV CBD.

DOWNTOWN CHULA VISTA CBD – ASSESSMENT ENGINEER’S REPORT 8 has found that generally over 95% of people moving about within similar district boundaries are engaged in business related to assessed parcels and businesses located within them, while the public at large “ just passing through” is typically 5% or less. Districts with high levels of transit connecting nodes and patrons may have higher levels of general benefits conferred on non- engaged “ passers- through”, i.e. the public at large.
Tangible services and improvements such as security, benches and shade trees would confer higher levels of general benefits on the public at large than say steam cleaned sidewalks, planters, decorative pavement and other general district management and operation activities. Typically, a factor range from 2.0% to 4%
0.02 to 0.04) is assigned to tangible streetscape/ sidewalk type services, programs and improvements such as security, benches and shade trees; in turn, a factor ranging from 0.25% to 1.0% (0.0025 to 0.01) is assigned to intangible services, programs and improvements such as sidewalk and pavement cleaning, general landscape improvements and ancillary services such as district management, operations and overhead.
While the California Court of Appeal has previously held that a business improvement district that provides services directly to assessed properties in addition to services provided to the public at large provides only a special benefit to the assessed parcels even if the special benefits produce general benefits to the public at large. Nevertheless, out of an abundance of caution, this report identifies some general benefit.
Based on experience and the nature of the proposed DCV CBD funded programs and over 30 years of assessment engineering experience, it is the opinion of this Assessment Engineer that districtwide general benefit factors for each of the DCV CBD funded special benefit program element costs that provide a general benefit to the public at large are as shown in the Table below. These factors are applied to each program element cost in order to compute the dollar and percent value of districtwide general benefits to the public at large. The total dollar value of this general benefit type, public at large, equates to $7,729 as delineated in the following Table:

Composite General Benefit
Based on the general benefit values delineated in the three sections above, the total value of districtwide general benefits conferred on assessed parcels within the DCV CBD, on the public at large and on parcels outside the DCV CBD, equates to $13,908 ($1,734 + $4,545 + $7,629).

DOWNTOWN CHULA VISTA CBD – ASSESSMENT ENGINEER’S REPORT 9 estimated $707,670. This Assessment Engineer has determined that the general benefit value portion of this equates to $13,908 or 1.97% of the total estimated DCV CBD program costs. This leaves a value of
98.03% assigned to special benefit related costs. The general benefit percentage will now be conservatively rounded up to 2.0% of the total revised program costs of $707, 920 or $14,158. Subtracting the composite general benefit value of $14,158 from the revised total estimated program cost of $707,920 results in a special benefit value of $693, 762. This is the total amount of assessments to be levied on the 253 assessed parcels in the proposed renewed DCV CBD for Year 1. General benefit costs of $14,158 will need to be funded by other non- assessment sources.

DCV CBD WORK PLAN
Overview
The services, programs and improvements to be funded by the DCV CBD include Civil Sidewalks-SafetyCleanliness, District Identity- Placemaking, Administration and Contingency- Reserve. The property uses within the boundaries of the DCV CBD that will receive special benefits from DCV CBD funded programs, services and improvements are currently an array of restaurants, bars, breweries, retailers, services, office buildings, government buildings and market rate apartment units with future residential condominiums zoned as mixed- use. Services, programs and improvements provided and funded by the DCV CBD are primarily designed to provide special benefits as described below to identified assessed parcels within the boundaries of the DCV CBD, and are different from, supplemental and/ or in addition to services provided by the City to the public at large.
These special benefits are particular and distinct to each and every identified assessed parcel within the DCV CBD and are not provided to non- assessed parcels outside of the DCV CBD. These programs, services and improvements will only be provided to each individual assessed parcel within the DCV CBD boundaries and, in turn, confer proportionate special benefits to each assessed parcel.
The very nature of the purpose of the DCV CBD is to fund supplemental programs, services and improvements to assessed parcels within the DCV CBD boundaries above and beyond the base line services provided by the City of Chula Vista. The City of Chula Vista does not provide these supplemental programs and services to non-assessed parcels. All benefits derived from the assessments to be levied on assessed parcels within the DCV CBD are for services, programs and improvements directly benefiting each individual assessed parcel within the DCV CBD. No DCV CBD funded services, activities or programs will be provided outside of the DCV CBD boundaries.
The program special benefit cost allocations of the DCV CBD assessment revenues for Year 1-2026 are shown in the Table on page 15 of this Report. The projected program special benefit cost allocations of the DCV CBD assessment revenues for the 20- year term of the DCV CBD, assuming a 7% maximum annual assessment rate increase, are shown in the Table on page 14 of this Report.

DOWNTOWN CHULA VISTA CBD – ASSESSMENT ENGINEER’S REPORT 13 WORK PLAN DETAILS
The services to be provided by the DCV CBD (i.e. Civil Sidewalks-Safety-Cleanliness, District IdentityPlacemaking, Administration and Contingency- Reserve) are all designed to contribute to the cohesive urban fabric to ensure economic success and vitality of each assessed parcel within the proposed DCV CBD. The assessed parcels in the DCV CBD will specially benefit from the DCV CBD programs in the form of increasing commerce and improving economic success, livability and vitality through meeting the DCV CBD Goals: to improve cleanliness, safety, beautification, landscaping and to attract and retain businesses and services, generate more pedestrian and visitor traffic and to increase commerce and improve the economic viability of each individual assessed parcel.
Assessed parcels are conferred proportionate special benefits from all DCV CBD funded programs, services and improvements which are intended to attract more customers, users, visitors, employees, tenants, residents and investors. DCV CBD programs, services and improvements are designed to increase business volumes, sales transactions, occupancies and rental income. These programs, services and improvements are designed to improve commerce, livability and aesthetic appeal for owners, tenants, patrons, residents, visitors and employees of these parcels within the DCV CBD by reducing litter and debris, deterring crime, marketing the available goods and services and installing beautification elements, each considered necessary in a competitive properly managed business district.
These benefits are particular and distinct to each and every identified and assessed parcel within the DCV CBD and are not provided to non- assessed parcels outside of the DCV CBD. These programs, services and improvements will only be provided to each individual assessed parcel within the DCV CBD boundaries and, in turn, confer proportionate " special benefits” to each assessed parcel.
The following programs, services and improvements are proposed by the DCV CBD to specially benefit each and every individually assessed parcel within the DCV CBD boundaries..
CIVIL SIDEWALKS – SAFETY – CLEANLINESS $416,000 60%
Examples of this category of special benefit services and costs may include, but are not limited to:
Regular sidewalk and gutter sweeping
Periodic sidewalk steam cleaning
Beautification of the district
Enhanced trash emptying (over and above city services)
Timely graffiti removal, within 48 hours as necessary
Maintenance of existing and new public spaces
Maintenance of the new proposed Memorial Plaza
Set up and take down of special events
Installation and maintenance of flowers throughout the district ( outside of medians) Possible supplemental services provided to the City of Chula Vista through contracting out services in city assets such as the downtown parking structure Personnel to manage in-house or contracted maintenance and any security teams.
The goal of the Civil Sidewalk-Safety-Cleanliness work plan component is to ensure that all identified assessed parcels are clean, well maintained and safe, thereby creating an attractive DCV CBD for the special benefit of each and every assessed DCV CBD parcel. These supplemental services will assist in creating a clean, orderly and safer environment for the special benefit of each assessed parcel in the DCV

DOWNTOWN CHULA VISTA CBD – ASSESSMENT ENGINEER’S REPORT 15 The Administration and Contingency-Reserve components are key to the proper expenditure of DCV CBD assessment funds and the administration of DCV CBD programs and activities for the special benefit of all parcels and land uses within the DCV CBD. The Administration and Contingency-Reserve work plan component exists only for the purposes of the DCV CBD and directly relates to the implementation of cleaning, security and beautification, district identity and improvement programs and services, which specially benefit each identified assessed parcel within the DCV CBD boundaries.
In summary, all DCV CBD funded services, programs and improvements described above confer special benefits to identified assessed parcels inside the DCV CBD boundaries and none will be provided outside of the DCV CBD. Each assessed parcel within the DCV CBD will proportionately specially benefit from Civil Sidewalks-Safety-Cleanliness, District Identity-Placemaking, Administration and ContingencyReserve. These services, programs and improvements are intended to improve commerce, employment, rents, livability and occupancy rates of assessed parcels within the DCV CBD by reducing litter, deterring crime, marketing the available goods and services and installing physical improvements, each considered necessary in a competitive properly managed mixed-use business district. All DCV CBD funded services programs and improvements are considered supplemental, above normal base level services provided by the City of Chula Vista and are only provided for the special benefit of each and every assessed parcel within the boundaries of the DCV CBD.
WORK PLAN BUDGET
Each identified assessed parcel within the DCV CBD will be assessed the full amount of the proportionate special benefit conferred upon it based on the level of DCV CBD funded services provided. The projected DCV CBD program special benefit ( assessments) allocation budget for Year 1 is shown in the following Table:

In order to carry out the DCV CBD programs outlined in the previous section, a Year 1 assessment budget of $693,762 is projected. Since the DCV CBD is being proposed for a 20-year term, projected program costs for future years ( Years 2-20) are set at the inception of the DCV CBD. While future inflationary and other program cost increases are unknown at this point, a maximum annual increase of 7% per year, commensurate to special benefits conferred on each assessed parcel, is incorporated into the projected program costs and assessment rates for the DCV CBD.
Funding carryovers, if any, may be reapportioned the following year for related programs, services and improvements in accordance with the Plan. Detailed annual budgets will be prepared by the

DOWNTOWN CHULA VISTA CBD – ASSESSMENT ENGINEER’S REPORT 17 expended within the budgeted categories. The Owners’ Association Board of the Directors (“ Property Owners’ Association of the DCV CBD) shall determine the percentage increase, if any, to the annual assessment, not to exceed 7% per year. The Owners’ Association Executive Director shall communicate the annual increase to the City each year in which the DCV CBD operates at a time determined in the Administration Contract held between the Owners’ Association and the City of Chula Vista. No bonds are to be issued in conjunction with the proposed DCV CBD.
Pursuant to the Ordinance, any funds remaining after the 20-Year term will be rolled over into the renewal budget or returned to stakeholders in accordance with the Ordinance. If the DCV CBD is terminated for any reason or disestablished, unencumbered/ unexpended funds will be returned to the property owners in accordance with the Ordinance.
Finding 3. From Section 4(a): “( Determine) the proportionate special benefit derived by each parcel in relationship to the entirety of the..........cost of public improvement( s) or the maintenance and operation expenses........... or the cost of the property related service being provided.
Each identified assessed parcel within the DCV CBD will be assessed based on property characteristics unique only to that parcel. Based on the specific needs and corresponding nature of the program activities to be funded by the proposed DCV CBD ( i.e. Civil Sidewalks-Safety-Cleanliness, District IdentityPlacemaking, Administration and Contingency- Reserve), it is the opinion of this Assessment Engineer that the assessment factors on which to base assessment rates relate directly to the proportionate amount of building area, land area and street frontage of each parcel except as noted herein within one benefit zone.
The calculated assessment rates are applied to the actual assessed factor quantities of each parcel and thereby are proportional to each and every other identified assessed parcel within the DCV CBD as a whole. Larger parcels and those with larger buildings and/or street frontage are projected to impact the demand for services and programs to a greater extent than smaller parcels or smaller buildings or street frontages and thus, are assigned a greater proportionate degree of assessment program and service costs .
The proportionality is further achieved by setting targeted formula component weights for the respective parcel by parcel identified property attributes.
The proportionate special benefit cost for each parcel has been calculated based on proportionate formula components and is listed in the Plan and this Report. The individual percentages ( i.e. proportionate relationship to the total special benefit related program and activity costs) are computed by dividing the individual parcel assessment by the total special benefit program related costs.
Finding 4. From Section 4(a): “ No assessment shall be imposed on any parcel which exceeds the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred on that parcel.” Not only are the proposed program costs reasonable due to the benefit of group purchasing and contracting which would be possible through the proposed DCV CBD, they are also considerably less than other options considered by the DCV CBD Formation Committee. The actual assessment rates for each parcel within the DCV CBD directly relate to the level of service and, in turn, special benefit to be conferred on each parcel based on the respective amount of building area, land area and street frontage of each parcel

DOWNTOWN CHULA VISTA CBD – ASSESSMENT ENGINEER’S REPORT 18 except as noted herein within one benefit zone.
Finding 5. From Section 4(a): “ Parcels….....that are owned or used by any (public) agency shall not be exempt from assessment….......”
Article XIIID states that “ parcels within a District that are owned or used by any agency, the State of California or the United States shall not be exempt from assessment unless the agency can demonstrate by clear and convincing evidence that those publicly- owned parcels in fact receive no special benefit.” There are currently 27 public and/ or tax exempt owned parcels within the boundaries of the proposed DCV CBD. Of these parcels, 21 are owned by the City of Chula Vista, 2 by the County of San Diego, 1 by Pacific Bell, 1 by Sweetwater Authority ( water agency), 1 by Scripps Health and 1 by Sharp Healthcare.
DCV CBD services are designed to improve the cleanliness and image of assessed publicly owned parcels and facilities for visitors, their employees, students and users of public facilities on publicly owned parcels within the DCV CBD by reducing litter and debris, deterring crime and improving their image, each considered detractions to employment, visitation and use of public facilities if not contained and properly managed. In turn, these services will serve to enhance the public purpose provided by public facilities and parcels within DCV CBD.
It is the opinion of this Assessment Engineer that there is no clear and convincing evidence that any of these public owned and/ or tax exempt parcels would not receive proportionate special benefits and thus, will not be exempt from assessments nor assessed differently than privately owned parcels. The Table below lists all publicly owned parcels within the proposed DCV CBD and their Year 1 assessment amounts:

From Section 4(b): “ All assessments must be supported by a detailed engineer’s report prepared by a registered professional engineer certified by the State of California”.
This report serves as the “ detailed engineer’ s report” to support the benefit property assessments proposed to be levied within the proposed DCV CBD.
Finding 7. From Section 4(c): “ The amount of the proposed assessment for each parcel shall be calculated ( along with) the total amount thereof chargeable to the entire district, the duration of such payments, the reason for such assessment and the basis upon which the amount of the proposed assessment was calculated.”
The individual and total parcel assessments attributable to special property benefits are shown in Appendix 1 to the Plan and this Report. The proposed DCV CBD and resultant assessment levies will continue for 20 years unless disestablished. The reasons for the proposed assessments are outlined in Finding 2 above as well as in the Plan. The calculation basis of the proposed assessment is attributed to building area, land area and street frontage of each parcel except as noted herein within one benefit zone.
Assessment Formula Methodology
Step 1. Select “ Benefit Unit(s)”
Background – Generic Assessment Formula Development
The method used to determine special benefits derived by each identified assessed property within a CBD begins with the selection of a suitable and tangible basic benefit unit. For property related services, such as those proposed in the DCV CBD, the benefit unit may be measured in building size in square feet, parcel land area in square feet or parcel street frontage in linear feet or any combination of these factors.
Factor quantities for each parcel are then measured or otherwise obtained. From these figures, the amount of benefit units to be assigned to each property can be calculated. Special circumstances such as unique geography, land uses, development constraints etc. are carefully reviewed relative to specific programs and improvements to be funded by a CBD in order to determine any levels of different benefit that may apply on a parcel- by-parcel or categorical basis.
City of Chula Vista - City Council
September 1, 2026 Post City Council Agenda
DOWNTOWN CHULA VISTA CBD – ASSESSMENT ENGINEER’S REPORT 20 Based on the factors described above such as geography and nature of programs and activities proposed, an assessment formula is developed which is derived from a singular or composite benefit unit factor or factors. Within the assessment formula, different factors may be assigned different “ weights” or percentage of values based on their relationship to programs/services to be funded.
Next, all program and activity costs, including incidental costs, administration and ancillary program costs, are estimated. It is noted, as stipulated in Article XIIID Section 4(b) of the California Constitution, and now required of all property-based assessment districts, indirect or general benefit related costs may not be incorporated into the assessment formula and levied on the district properties; only direct or special” benefits related costs may be used. Indirect or general benefits, if any, must be identified and, if quantifiable, calculated and factored out of the assessment cost basis to produce a “ net” cost figure. In addition, Article XIIID Section 4(b) of the California Constitution also no longer automatically exempts publicly owned property from being assessed unless the respective public agency can provide clear and convincing evidence that their property does not specially benefit from the programs and services to be funded by the proposed special assessments. If special benefit is determined to be conferred upon such properties, they must be assessed in proportion to special benefits conferred in a manner similar to privately owned property assessments. ( See pages 18-19 of this Report for discussion regarding publicly owned parcels within the DCV CBD).
From the estimated program costs, the value of a benefit unit or “unit cost” can be computed by dividing the total amount of estimated program costs by the total number of benefit units. The amount of assessment for each parcel can be computed at this time by multiplying the Unit Cost times the number of Benefit Units per parcel. This is known as “ spreading the assessment” or the “ assessment spread” in that all costs are allocated proportionately or “spread” amongst all benefitting properties within the CBD.
The method and basis of spreading program costs varies from one CBD to another based on local geographic conditions, types of programs and activities proposed, and size and development complexity of the district. CBDs may require secondary benefit zones to be identified to allow for a tiered assessment formula for variable or stepped-down benefits derived based on general land use differentials or levels of services required or programmed to be provided.
DCV CBD Assessment Formula
Based on the specific needs and corresponding nature of the program activities to be funded by the proposed DCV CBD ( i.e. Civil Sidewalks- Safety- Cleanliness, District Identity– Placemaking, Administration and Contingency-Reserve) it is the opinion of this Assessment Engineer that the assessment factors on which to base assessment rates relate directly to the proportionate amount of building area, land area and street frontage of each parcel except as noted herein within one benefit zone.
The “Benefit Units” will be expressed as a combined function of gross building square footage (Benefit Unit “ A”), parcel land square footage ( Benefit Unit “ B”), street frontage ( Benefit Unit “ C”) and residential condominium interior building square footage (Benefit Unit “ D”). Based on the shape of the proposed DCV CBD, as well as the nature of the work program, it is determined that all identified properties will gain a direct and proportionate degree of special benefit based on the respective amount of building area, land area and street frontage of each parcel except as noted herein within one benefit zone. It is noted and explained in more detail on page 21 under “ Special Assessment Circumstances” that residential condominiums will be assessed based only on interior building pad square footage of each unit.
City of Chula Vista - City Council
September 1, 2026 Post City Council Agenda
DOWNTOWN CHULA VISTA CBD – ASSESSMENT ENGINEER’S REPORT 21 The interaction of building area, land area and street frontage quantities is a common method of fairly and equitably spreading special benefit costs to the beneficiaries of CBD funded services, programs and improvements. These factors directly relate to the proportion of special benefit each assessed parcel will receive from DCV CBD funded activities, programs and improvements.
Building Area (Benefit Units A & D) is a direct measure of the static utilization of each parcel and its corresponding impact or draw on DCV CBD funded activities. The combined targeted revenue weight of Building Area (Units A & D) is about 40%. Units A and D will actually generate 42,1651% of the overall assessment revenue
Land Area ( Benefit Unit B) is a direct measure of the current and future development capacity of each parcel and its corresponding impact or draw on DCV CBD funded activities. The targeted revenue weight of Land Area ( Unit B) is about 40%. Unit B will actually generate 39.7907% of the overall assessment revenue.
Street Frontage (Benefit Unit C) is a direct measure of each parcel’s corresponding impact or draw on DCV CBD funded activities. The targeted revenue weight of Street Frontage ( Unit C) is about 20%. Unit C will actually generate 18.0442% of the overall assessment revenue.
Special Assessment Circumstances
1. Residential Condominiums (future)
Residential condominium parcels ( which are zoned mixed- use) will be assessed as a separate category.
It is the opinion of this Assessment Engineer that residential condominium parcels will proportionately specially benefit from DCV CBD funded programs and activities, but differently than commercial parcels and other residential parcels with multiple units on them. As such, based on the development configuration of such units which are generally multi floor buildings with no direct land or street frontage, the assessments for residential condominiums shall be assessed based solely on the internal building area of each residential condominium unit at the rate of $0.14 per square foot of internal building pad area, the same building area rate of all other land uses, subject to any approved annual rate increases. It is noted that downtown mixed-use zoning typically allows residential uses such as apartments or condominiums but require a certain amount of commercial ground floor space and units which, in turn, are assessed on a pro-rated basis for parcel land area and street frontage (see below for mixed- use condominium assessment methodology).
2. Mixed- Use Condominiums
Ground floor commercial condominiums within the DCV CBD shall be assessed based on actual land area covered, condominium building area and direct street frontage for each unit. Because such uses are typically developed as part of a multi-floor mixed-use complex, special methodologies are needed to address the levy of assessments on such land uses as follows:
Multi- Floor Commercial Only Condominiums ( Upper Floors) Building area assessed at respective building area rate and pro-rated for land area and street frontage based on building area quantities of the whole complex Multi- Floor Mixed- Use Condominiums

DOWNTOWN CHULA VISTA CBD – ASSESSMENT ENGINEER’S REPORT 22 Commercial condo (See above for ground floor and upper floor locations) Residential condo ( See # 1 above)
3. Single Family Dwellings ( Non- Condominiums)
There are a few remaining single family occupied dwelling units with the proposed DCV CBD. It is the opinion of this Assessment Engineer that these parcels will not specially benefit from the proposed activities and improvements to be funded by the DCV CBD and thus will not be assessed. In the future, should these uses change and/ or new developments occur on them, they will then be assessed similar to other parcels and land uses within the DCV CBD.
Changes to Building and/or Parcel Size
Any changes in building or parcel size as a result of new construction, demolitions, land adjustments including but not limited to lot splits, consolidations, subdivisions, street dedications, right of way setbacks shall have their assessment adjusted upon final City approval of such building and/ or parcel adjustments.
Other Future Development
Other than future maximum rates and the assessment methodology delineated in this Report, future assessments may increase for any given parcel if such an increase is attributable to events other than an increased rate or revised methodology, such as a change in the density, intensity, or nature of the use of land. Any change in assessment formula methodology or rates other than as stipulated in this Report would require a new Article XIIID ballot procedure in order to approve any such changes.
Step 2. Quantify Total Basic Benefit Units

DOWNTOWN CHULA VISTA CBD – ASSESSMENT ENGINEER’S REPORT 23 Step 3. Calculate Benefit Units for Each Property.
The number of Benefit Units for each identified benefiting parcel within the proposed DCV CBD was computed from data extracted from County Assessor records and maps. These data sources delineate current land uses, property areas and dimensions of record for each tax parcel. While it is understood that this data does not represent legal field survey measurements or detailed title search of recorded land subdivision maps or building records, it does provide an acceptable basis for the purpose of calculating property- based assessments. All respective property data being used for assessment computations will be provided to each property owner in the DCV CBD for their review. If a property owner believes there is an error on a parcel’ s assessed quantities, the DCV CBD may confirm the data with the San Diego County Assessor’ s office. If DCV CBD data matches Assessor’ s data, the property owner may opt to work with the Assessor’ s office to correct the data so that the DCV CBD assessment may be corrected.
Step 4. Determine Assessment Formula
In the opinion of this Assessment Engineer, the general assessment formula for the proposed DCV CBD as shown in the Year 1 Assessment Rate Table above is as follows:
Assessment = Building Area ( Unit A) Sq Ft x Unit A Rate Land Area ( Unit B) Sq Ft x Unit B Rate, plus

The complete Year 1 assessment roll of all parcels to be assessed by the DCV CBD is included in this Report as Appendix I.
Step 5. Estimate Total DCV CBD Costs
The total projected 20-year DCV CBD special benefit costs are shown in the Table on page 16 of this Report assuming a maximum 7% increase per year.
Step 6. Separate General Benefits from Special Benefits and Related Costs (Article XIIID) Total Year 1 special and districtwide general benefit related costs are estimated at $693,762. Districtwide general benefits are factored at 2.0% of the total benefit value ( see Finding 2 of this Report) with special benefits set at 98.0%. Article XIIID limits the levy of property assessments to costs attributed to special benefits only. The 2.0% general benefit value is computed to be $ 14,158 with a resultant 98.0% special benefit limit computed at $693, 762. Based on current property data and land uses, this is the maximum amount of Year 1 revenue that can be derived from property assessments from the subject District. All program costs associated with district- wide and site/ activity specific general benefits will be derived from sources other than DCV CBD assessments.
Step 7. Calculate “ Basic Unit Cost”
With a YR 1 assessment revenue portion of the budget set at $693,762 (special benefit only), the Unit Costs rates) are shown earlier in Step 4. The DCV CBD is proposed for a 20- year term. An annual inflationary assessment rate increase of up to 7%, commensurate to special benefits received by each assessed parcel, may be imposed for future year assessments, on approval by the DCV CBD Property Owner’ s Association.
The maximum assessment rates for years 1-20 are shown in the Table below. The assessment rates listed constitute the maximum assessment rates that may be imposed for each year of the 20- year DCV CBD term.

2 Management District Plan Summary
The name of this Community Benefit District (“ CBD”) is the Downtown Chula Vista Community Benefit District (“ Downtown Chula Vista CBD” or the “ District”). The District is being formed under the City of Chula Vista’ s Community Benefit Ordinance, Chapter 5.14 added to Title 5 of the Chula Vista Municipal Code.
The levy of assessments on real property within the proposed District will confer special benefit to assessed parcels through physical and maintenance improvements to individual properties.
Such improvements are intended to attract new customers, tenants, and increase business sales resulting in stabilized rents on property owners throughout Downtown Chula Vista. These benefits do not accrue to the public at large, and as such, are special and not general in nature. The assessments will fund maintenance, special events and activities, revitalizing the Downtown Chula Vista District and creating jobs, attracting, and retaining businesses, and reducing crime, in a manner that benefits the assessed parcels in a unique and distinct manner.
Downtown Chula Vista CBD Steering Committee
For the past three decades, Downtown Chula Vista stakeholders have worked to improve and enhance their experience and overall ambiance of working, visiting, shopping, and residing in the Downtown Chula Vista District.
The current PBID Board of Directors, the Greater Third Avenue Improvement Association, approved the Downtown CBD renewal plan at its January 2026 Board of Directors meeting. Once that was done, staff was authorized to write the new Management District Plan under a newly adopted Charter City enabling ordinance, work with the Assessment Engineer for the required engineer’s report, submit to the City of Chula Vista’s City Attorney’s office to ensure compliance with the state constitution, initiate a petition drive to gauge support for the new management plan and work with the City on the majority protest proceeding to approve the renewed district. All of this will be completed by July 2026. During this renewal process, the Board of Directors and its staff shall hold public meetings with property owners as well as one on one discussions to be held to explain the purpose of the District renewal and expansion.
How can a new Downtown Chula Vista CBD benefit property owners? In summary, a Downtown Chula Vista CBD is a Special Benefits Assessment District whereby property owners vote, through a majority protest proceeding, to supplement their property tax bills to pay for and control the assessments they generate through the new CBD. The CBD will not replace current City services, but it can fund solutions to supplement City services that specially benefit assessed parcels including:
Safety, petty criminal, and homeless/ vacancy problems to enhance profitable use of assessed parcels
Sidewalk cleanliness, driving more customers to travel to and access assessed parcels Item 7.2 - Written Communications
Limandri - Received 09/01/2026
City of Chula Vista - City Council
September 1, 2026 Post City Council Agenda
3 Install/ improve decorative amenities such as street furniture, fixtures, equipment, and lighting to attract more customers and tenants to assessed parcels Promote and enhance the brand image of Downtown Chula Vista Manage events in and around the district, particularly on Third Avenue and soon at Memorial Plaza, in order to drive business to assessed parcels Create a strong social media presence and facilitate public relations for Downtown Chula Vista businesses.
Promote public space development and placemaking, especially as it relates to the creation of the new Memorial Plaza.
MOST IMPORTANTLY, THESE PROPERTY ASSESSMENT FUNDS WILL NOT REPLACE EXISTING CITY
SERVICES IN DOWNTOWN CHULA VISTA AND WILL BE MANAGED BY THE PROPERTY AND BUSINESS OWNERS THROUGH THEIR NON-PROFIT OWNERS’ ASSOCIATION – THE GREATER THIRD AVENUE IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION, dba: Downtown Chula Vista Association.
The proposed Downtown Chula Vista Community Benefit District will fund special benefit services, over and above, what the City of Chula Vista is currently providing. Special benefits are benefits that are unique and distinct to the assessed parcel and are different from how the general public may benefit.

5 METHOD OF FINANCING
The financing of the Downtown Chula Vista CBD is based upon the levy of special assessments on real properties that receive special benefits from the improvements and activities located within the boundaries of the District. See Section 4 for assessment methodology and compliance with Article XIII D of the California State Constitution. The four factors used to determine proportional costs to the parcels in the District:
Linear frontage, on all sides of the parcel (excluding alleys) Lot square footage
Building square footage
Future residential condominiums
Costs
The costs per parcel are based upon the four factors listed above. All assessments must be proportional to the special benefits received. The annual assessment to each benefiting parcel owner will be determined by the combination of the assessments of each property variable.
First Year Annual Costs Per Property
Property Variable Annual Costs
Building Square Footage $ 0.14
Lot size $ 0.08
Linear Frontage $ 4.00
Residential Condos Unit Sq. Ft. $ 0.14
In addition, other factors will be used to determine assessments based upon the anticipated benefit of the current land uses:
Residential condominiums will be assessed for their unit building square footage only.
Private parking structures or major retail parking lots may be reduced for their gross building square footage and/or lot size assessments if they are not open to the public in general, and that parking only serves the needs of direct tenants. .
All publicly owned and operated parcels will be assessed for linear frontage, lot size and building square footage, similar to commercial parcels.
Data and Benefit Zones
There are 253 individual parcels owned by 199 property owners in the proposed Downtown Chula Vista Community Benefit District. The data was obtained by San Diego County Tax Assessors, ParcelQuest, as well as verification from property owners in the Downtown Chula Vista. The following data is used as the basis for the generation of the CBD assessments.

Under the local enabling ordinance, district formation requires submission of petitions from private and public property owners in the proposed district representing at least 30% of the total assessments to be paid into the first year of the Downtown Chula Vista CBD.
Once the City verifies the petitions totaling a minimum of 30%, ($208,129) of the first-year annual budget which is projected to be $693,762 in first-year annual assessments, the Chula Vista City Council may adopt a Resolution of Intention to mail out ballots to all affected property owners. The City will then hold a public hearing and tabulate the ballots. The Downtown Chula Vista CBD will be formed if the weighted majority of all returned mail ballots support District formation and if the City Council adopts a Resolution of Formation to levy the assessments on the benefiting parcels. The date for that public hearing has not been scheduled but it is assumed that it will be held in the Fall of 2026, based upon the successful completion of the petition drive.
Term
Under the Chula Vista local enabling ordinance, the District may be established for up to 20-years and shall not exceed 20-years. State law and the local enabling ordinance permits this annual disestablishment of the district based upon petition and vote of the property owners.
Time and Manner for Collecting Assessments
The Downtown Chula Vista CBD assessments will appear as a separate line item on annual property tax bills prepared by the San Diego County Tax Assessor. The assessments are collected at the same time and in the same manner as ad valorem property taxes paid to the County. The assessments have the same lien priority and penalties for delinquent payments as ad valorem property taxes. Any delinquent assessments owed for the first year will be added to the property tax roll for the following year together with any applicable interest and penalties. The “ property owner” means any person shown as the owner/taxpayer on the last equalized assessment roll or otherwise known to be the owner/taxpayer by the City. Publicly owned properties of the City and County will not be collected by the County Tax Assessor, but by a manual billing by the City of Chula Vista. If adopted, the first assessments of the new Downtown Chula Vista Community Benefit District will be billed directly by the City of Chula Vista and will be on the County property tax bills the year after.

7 Government and Tax-exempt Parcel Assessment
The Downtown Chula Vista CBD Management Plan assumes that any public or tax-exempt parcels shall pay into the CBD in proportion to the special benefit conferred on their parcel(s). There are currently City and County and non-profit hospitals in the proposed Downtown Chula Vista CBD.
The Civil Sidewalks, District Identity and Placemaking and Administrative special benefit services will provide a clean and attractive working environment for those publicly owned and tax-exempt operated buildings in the core of the District, in order to attract new employees and provide enhanced visitor experience. The hospitals within the District on H Street will have thousands of visitors annually and those visitors will likely walk east along H Street to the multiple businesses near the corner of H Street and Third Avenue and will be able to enjoy the clean and attractive public rights arising for the distribution of these special benefit services.
Governance
Pursuant to Section 36650 of the California Streets and Highway Code, the CBD will be managed by a Owners’ Association, which is defined in section 36612 to be a privatenon- profit entity under contract with the City to administer or implement the CBD Plan. The CBD will be managed by the current Owners’ Association, the Greater Third Avenue Improvement Association ( 501c3), who will be responsible for reviewing the District budgets and policies annually within the limitations of the Management District Plan. The Owners’ Association must file Annual Reports with the City of Chula Vista and will oversee the day-to-day implementation of services as defined in the Management District Plan.
Disestablishment
Under Streets and Highways Code Section 36670, assessed property owners will have an annual period in which to submit petitions to the City Council to disestablish the CBD. If a petitionis submitted by property owners who pay 50% or more of the total assessment, the City shall disestablish the CBD after adopting a resolution of intention and holding a noticed public hearing.
Upon disestablishment, assessments will be removed from the parcels the following fiscal year.
Unexpended surplus funds will be returned to property owners based upon a parcel’s percentage contribution to the previous fiscal year’s assessments.
Exemptions or Reductions in Rates
Under this Management District Plan and consistent with Article XIII D of the State Constitution, no parcel receiving special benefits from the establishment of a property assessment district is exempt from the full payment of the annual assessment, and no other parcel shall be charged more than their proportional special benefit conferred as a result of another assessed parcel not paying the assessment.

To Whom It May Concern:
I hereby certify to the best of my professional knowledge and experience that each of the identified benefiting properties located within the proposed Downtown Chula Vista Community Benefit District DCV CBD") being established for a 20 year term will receive a special benefit over and above the benefits conferred on the public at large and that the amount of the proposed assessment is proportional to, and no greater than the benefits conferred on each respective property. As required by State Law, I have personally prepared this entire Report and hereby attest to all of its contents.
Introduction
This report serves as the “ detailed engineer’ s report” required by Section 4(b) of Article XIIID of the California Constitution to support the benefit property assessments to be levied within the proposed DCV CBD in the City of Chula Vista, California being established for a 20 year term. The discussion and analysis contained within this Report constitutes the required “ nexus” of rationale between assessment amounts levied and special benefits conferred on real properties within the proposed DCV CBD.

DOWNTOWN CHULA VISTA CBD – ASSESSMENT ENGINEER’S REPORT 2 Background
The DCV CBD is a property-based benefit assessment type district being established for a 20 year term pursuant to the City of Chula Vista’ s Community Benefit District Ordinance, codified Under Municipal Code Chapter
5.14 added to Title 5 (the “ Ordinance”), which supplements Section 36600 et seq. of the California Streets and Highways Code (as amended), also known as the Property and Business Improvement District Law of 1994 the “ Act”). Due to the benefit assessment nature of assessments levied within a property and business improvement district (“ PBID”) or community benefit district (“ CBD”), district program costs are to be distributed amongst all identified benefiting properties based on the proportional amount of special benefit each property is expected to derive from the assessments levied. Only those properties on which special benefits are expected to be conferred from assessment funded programs and activities may be assessed and only in an amount proportional to the relative special benefits expected to be conferred on each property.
Supplemental Article XIIID Section 4(b) California Constitution Procedures and Requirements
Proposition 218, approved by the voters of California in November of 1996, adds a supplemental array of procedures and requirements to be carried out prior to levying a property-based assessment like the DCV CBD. These requirements are in addition to requirements imposed by State and local assessment enabling laws. These requirements were “ chaptered” into law as Article XIIID Section 4(b) of the California Constitution (hereinafter Article XIIID).
Since Article XIIID provisions will affect all subsequent calculations to be made in the final assessment formula for the DCV CBD, each of these supplemental requirements will be taken into account and addressed in this Report. The key provisions of Article XIIID along with a description of how the DCV CBD complies with each of these provisions are delineated below.

DOWNTOWN CHULA VISTA CBD – ASSESSMENT ENGINEER’S REPORT 5 Finding 2. From Section 4(a): “ Separate general benefits (if any) from the special benefits conferred on parcel( s). Only special benefits are assessable. “
QUANTITATIVE BENEFIT ANALYSIS
As stipulated in Article XIIID Section 4(b) of the California Constitution, assessment district programs and activities confer a combination of general and special benefits to properties, but the only program benefits that can be assessed are those that provide special benefit to the assessed properties. For the purposes of this analysis, a “ general benefit” is hereby defined as: “ A benefit to properties in the area and in the surrounding community or benefit to the public in general resulting from the improvement, activity, or service to be provided by the assessment levied”. “ Special benefit” as defined by Article XIIID means a distinct benefit over and above general benefits conferred on real property located in the district.
The property uses within the boundaries of the DCV CBD that will receive special benefits from DCV CBD funded programs and services are currently an array of restaurants, bars, breweries, retailers, services, office buildings, government buildings and market rate apartment units with future residential condominiums. Services, programs and improvements provided and funded by the DCV CBD are primarily designed to provide special benefits as described below to identified assessed parcels and the array of land uses within the boundaries of the DCV CBD and are over and above services already provided by the City to the general public at large.
The proposed DCV CBD programs, improvements and services and Year 1 budget allocation are as follows:
Year 1 - DCV CBD Special Benefit Cost Allocations ( Assessment Revenue Only) * Civil SidewalksSafetyCleanliness
District Identity
Placemaking Administration
Contingency
Reserve TOTAL

416,000 $ 104,000 $ 153,000 $ 20,762 $ 693,762
These dollar numbers are rounded to the closest whole dollar amount Assessed parcels are conferred proportionate special benefits from all DCV CBD funded programs, services and improvements which are intended to attract more customers, users, visitors, employees, tenants and investors. DCV CBD programs, services and improvements are designed to increase business volumes, sales transactions, occupancies, livability and rental income. These programs, services and improvements are designed to improve commerce and aesthetic appeal for owners, tenants, patrons, residents, visitors and employees of these parcels within the DCV CBD by reducing litter and debris, deterring crime, marketing the available goods and services and installing beautification elements, each considered necessary in a competitive properly managed mixed-use business district. Importantly, these services and improvements are in addition to services and improvements that the City provides to the general public and are only provided to and funded by the assessed parcels.
These benefits are particular and distinct to each and every identified and assessed parcel within the DCV CBD and are not provided to non-assessed parcels outside of the DCV CBD.

DOWNTOWN CHULA VISTA CBD – ASSESSMENT ENGINEER’S REPORT 6 boundaries and, in turn, confer proportionate special benefits to each assessed parcel.
In the case of the DCV CBD, the very nature of the purpose of this CBD is to fund supplemental programs, services and improvements to assessed parcels within the DCV CBD boundaries above and beyond what is being currently funded either via normal tax supported methods or other funding sources. All benefits derived from the assessments to be levied on assessed parcels within the DCV CBD are for services, programs and improvements directly and specially benefiting each individual assessed parcel within the DCV CBD. No DCV CBD funded services, activities or programs will be provided outside of the DCV CBD boundaries.
While every attempt is made to provide DCV CBD services and programs to confer special benefits only to those identified assessed parcels within the DCV CBD. Article XIIID stipulates that the portion of the program costs that are attributable to general benefits must be assigned a value and funded from sources other than assessment revenue. A special benefit does not become or create general benefits if the special benefit creates or produces general benefits, either General benefits might be conferred on parcels within the DCV CBD, or “spillover” onto parcels surrounding the DCV CBD, or to the public at large who might be passing through the DCV CBD with no intention of transacting business within the DCV CBD or interest in the DCV CBD itself.
Assessment engineering experience throughout California has found that general benefits within a given business improvement district tend to range from 2-6% of the total costs. There are three methods that have been used by this Assessment Engineer for determining general and special benefit values within assessment districts:
1) The parcel- by-parcel allocation method
2) The program/activity line-item allocation method, and 3) The composite district overlay determinant method.
A majority of PBID type districts in California for which this Assessment Engineer has provided assessment engineering services in conformance with Article XIIID have used Method #3, the composite district overlay determinant method which will be used for the DCV CBD. This method of computing the value of general benefit involves a composite of three distinct types of general benefit – general benefit to assessed parcels within the DCV CBD, general benefit to the public at large within the DCV CBD and general benefit to parcels outside the DCV CBD.
General Benefit – Assessed Parcels within the DCV CBD
DCV CBD funded programs are narrowly designed and carefully implemented to specially benefit the assessed DCV CBD parcels and are only provided for the special benefit to each and every assessed parcel within the DCV CBD. It is the opinion of this Engineer, based on over 30 years of professional assessment engineering experience and knowledge of similar factors used in similar type business improvement districts throughout California by other Assessment Engineer’ s, that nearly 100% of benefits conferred on the 253 assessed parcels within the DCV CBD are distinct and special. In the case of the DCV CBD, it is projected that there are 0.25% general benefits conferred on these parcels. This high ratio of special benefits to general benefits is because the DCV CBD funded programs and services are specially geared to the unique needs of each parcel within the DCV CBD and are directed specially only to these parcels within the DCV CBD and are in addition to services provided City-wide and to the general public at large.
This concept is further reinforced by the proportionality of special benefits conferred on each parcel within Item 7.2 - Written Communications

DOWNTOWN CHULA VISTA CBD – ASSESSMENT ENGINEER’S REPORT 7 the DCV CBD as determined by the special benefit assessment formula as it is applied to the unique and varying property characteristics of each parcel. The computed 0.25% general benefit value on the 253 assessed parcels within the DCV CBD equates to $1,734 or (.25% x $693,762).
Spillover General Benefits to Parcels Outside of DCV CBD While DCV CBD programs and services will not be provided directly to parcels outside the DCV CBD boundaries, it is reasonable to conclude that DCV CBD services may confer an indirect general benefit on parcels adjacent to the DCV CBD boundaries. The California Court of Appeal has previously held that indirect benefits to non-assessed parcels resulting from programs and services provided directly and only to assessed parcels does not in and of itself create a general benefit. Nevertheless, out of an abundance of caution, and in light of certain adjacent parcels, this report analyzes the potential for some general benefit.
An inventory of the DCV CBD boundaries finds that the DCV CBD is immediately surrounded by 140 parcels. Of these, 21 are commercial zoned parcels with commercial uses and 119 are either residentially zoned parcels with residential uses or public or non-profit owned parcels with public or non-profit uses.
The 140 parcels directly outside the DCV CBD boundaries can reasonably be assumed to receive some indirect general benefit as a result of DCV CBD funded programs, services and improvements. Based on over 30 years of assessment engineering experience and knowledge of similar factors used in similar type business improvement districts throughout California by other Assessment Engineer’ s, it is the opinion of this Engineer that a benefit factor of 1.0 be attributed to the 253 assessed parcels within the DCV CBD, a benefit factor of 0.05 be attributed to general benefits conferred on the 21 commercial parcel located adjacent to or across the street from assessed parcels within the DCV CBD, and a benefit factor of 0.005 be attributed to general benefits conferred on the 119 residential or public or non- profit parcels and uses located adjacent to or across the street from assessed parcels within the DCV CBD. The cumulative dollar value of this general benefit type equates to $4,545 ($2,892 + $1,653) as delineated in the following Table:

General Benefit - Public At Large
While the DCV CBD funded programs are narrowly designed and carefully implemented to specially benefit the assessed DCV CBD parcels, are provided directly and exclusively to assessed parcels, and are only provided for the special benefit to each and every assessed parcel within the DCV CBD, these programs also provide general benefits to the public at large within the DCV CBD.

DOWNTOWN CHULA VISTA CBD – ASSESSMENT ENGINEER’S REPORT 8 has found that generally over 95% of people moving about within similar district boundaries are engaged in business related to assessed parcels and businesses located within them, while the public at large “ just passing through” is typically 5% or less. Districts with high levels of transit connecting nodes and patrons may have higher levels of general benefits conferred on non- engaged “ passers- through”, i.e. the public at large.
Tangible services and improvements such as security, benches and shade trees would confer higher levels of general benefits on the public at large than say steam cleaned sidewalks, planters, decorative pavement and other general district management and operation activities. Typically, a factor range from 2.0% to 4%
0.02 to 0.04) is assigned to tangible streetscape/ sidewalk type services, programs and improvements such as security, benches and shade trees; in turn, a factor ranging from 0.25% to 1.0% (0.0025 to 0.01) is assigned to intangible services, programs and improvements such as sidewalk and pavement cleaning, general landscape improvements and ancillary services such as district management, operations and overhead.
While the California Court of Appeal has previously held that a business improvement district that provides services directly to assessed properties in addition to services provided to the public at large provides only a special benefit to the assessed parcels even if the special benefits produce general benefits to the public at large. Nevertheless, out of an abundance of caution, this report identifies some general benefit.
Based on experience and the nature of the proposed DCV CBD funded programs and over 30 years of assessment engineering experience, it is the opinion of this Assessment Engineer that districtwide general benefit factors for each of the DCV CBD funded special benefit program element costs that provide a general benefit to the public at large are as shown in the Table below. These factors are applied to each program element cost in order to compute the dollar and percent value of districtwide general benefits to the public at large. The total dollar value of this general benefit type, public at large, equates to $7,729 as delineated in the following Table:

Composite General Benefit
Based on the general benefit values delineated in the three sections above, the total value of districtwide general benefits conferred on assessed parcels within the DCV CBD, on the public at large and on parcels outside the DCV CBD, equates to $13,908 ($1,734 + $4,545 + $7,629).

DOWNTOWN CHULA VISTA CBD – ASSESSMENT ENGINEER’S REPORT 9 estimated $707,670. This Assessment Engineer has determined that the general benefit value portion of this equates to $13,908 or 1.97% of the total estimated DCV CBD program costs. This leaves a value of
98.03% assigned to special benefit related costs. The general benefit percentage will now be conservatively rounded up to 2.0% of the total revised program costs of $707, 920 or $14,158. Subtracting the composite general benefit value of $14,158 from the revised total estimated program cost of $707,920 results in a special benefit value of $693, 762. This is the total amount of assessments to be levied on the 253 assessed parcels in the proposed renewed DCV CBD for Year 1. General benefit costs of $14,158 will need to be funded by other non- assessment sources.

DCV CBD WORK PLAN
Overview
The services, programs and improvements to be funded by the DCV CBD include Civil Sidewalks-SafetyCleanliness, District Identity- Placemaking, Administration and Contingency- Reserve. The property uses within the boundaries of the DCV CBD that will receive special benefits from DCV CBD funded programs, services and improvements are currently an array of restaurants, bars, breweries, retailers, services, office buildings, government buildings and market rate apartment units with future residential condominiums zoned as mixed- use. Services, programs and improvements provided and funded by the DCV CBD are primarily designed to provide special benefits as described below to identified assessed parcels within the boundaries of the DCV CBD, and are different from, supplemental and/ or in addition to services provided by the City to the public at large.
These special benefits are particular and distinct to each and every identified assessed parcel within the DCV CBD and are not provided to non- assessed parcels outside of the DCV CBD. These programs, services and improvements will only be provided to each individual assessed parcel within the DCV CBD boundaries and, in turn, confer proportionate special benefits to each assessed parcel.
The very nature of the purpose of the DCV CBD is to fund supplemental programs, services and improvements to assessed parcels within the DCV CBD boundaries above and beyond the base line services provided by the City of Chula Vista. The City of Chula Vista does not provide these supplemental programs and services to non-assessed parcels. All benefits derived from the assessments to be levied on assessed parcels within the DCV CBD are for services, programs and improvements directly benefiting each individual assessed parcel within the DCV CBD. No DCV CBD funded services, activities or programs will be provided outside of the DCV CBD boundaries.
The program special benefit cost allocations of the DCV CBD assessment revenues for Year 1-2026 are shown in the Table on page 15 of this Report. The projected program special benefit cost allocations of the DCV CBD assessment revenues for the 20- year term of the DCV CBD, assuming a 7% maximum annual assessment rate increase, are shown in the Table on page 14 of this Report.

DOWNTOWN CHULA VISTA CBD – ASSESSMENT ENGINEER’S REPORT 13 WORK PLAN DETAILS
The services to be provided by the DCV CBD (i.e. Civil Sidewalks-Safety-Cleanliness, District IdentityPlacemaking, Administration and Contingency- Reserve) are all designed to contribute to the cohesive urban fabric to ensure economic success and vitality of each assessed parcel within the proposed DCV CBD. The assessed parcels in the DCV CBD will specially benefit from the DCV CBD programs in the form of increasing commerce and improving economic success, livability and vitality through meeting the DCV CBD Goals: to improve cleanliness, safety, beautification, landscaping and to attract and retain businesses and services, generate more pedestrian and visitor traffic and to increase commerce and improve the economic viability of each individual assessed parcel.
Assessed parcels are conferred proportionate special benefits from all DCV CBD funded programs, services and improvements which are intended to attract more customers, users, visitors, employees, tenants, residents and investors. DCV CBD programs, services and improvements are designed to increase business volumes, sales transactions, occupancies and rental income. These programs, services and improvements are designed to improve commerce, livability and aesthetic appeal for owners, tenants, patrons, residents, visitors and employees of these parcels within the DCV CBD by reducing litter and debris, deterring crime, marketing the available goods and services and installing beautification elements, each considered necessary in a competitive properly managed business district.
These benefits are particular and distinct to each and every identified and assessed parcel within the DCV CBD and are not provided to non- assessed parcels outside of the DCV CBD. These programs, services and improvements will only be provided to each individual assessed parcel within the DCV CBD boundaries and, in turn, confer proportionate " special benefits” to each assessed parcel.
The following programs, services and improvements are proposed by the DCV CBD to specially benefit each and every individually assessed parcel within the DCV CBD boundaries..
CIVIL SIDEWALKS – SAFETY – CLEANLINESS $416,000 60%
Examples of this category of special benefit services and costs may include, but are not limited to:
Regular sidewalk and gutter sweeping

DOWNTOWN CHULA VISTA CBD – ASSESSMENT ENGINEER’S REPORT 15 The Administration and Contingency-Reserve components are key to the proper expenditure of DCV CBD assessment funds and the administration of DCV CBD programs and activities for the special benefit of all parcels and land uses within the DCV CBD. The Administration and Contingency-Reserve work plan component exists only for the purposes of the DCV CBD and directly relates to the implementation of cleaning, security and beautification, district identity and improvement programs and services, which specially benefit each identified assessed parcel within the DCV CBD boundaries.
In summary, all DCV CBD funded services, programs and improvements described above confer special benefits to identified assessed parcels inside the DCV CBD boundaries and none will be provided outside of the DCV CBD. Each assessed parcel within the DCV CBD will proportionately specially benefit from Civil Sidewalks-Safety-Cleanliness, District Identity-Placemaking, Administration and ContingencyReserve. These services, programs and improvements are intended to improve commerce, employment, rents, livability and occupancy rates of assessed parcels within the DCV CBD by reducing litter, deterring crime, marketing the available goods and services and installing physical improvements, each considered necessary in a competitive properly managed mixed-use business district. All DCV CBD funded services programs and improvements are considered supplemental, above normal base level services provided by the City of Chula Vista and are only provided for the special benefit of each and every assessed parcel within the boundaries of the DCV CBD.
WORK PLAN BUDGET
Each identified assessed parcel within the DCV CBD will be assessed the full amount of the proportionate special benefit conferred upon it based on the level of DCV CBD funded services provided. The projected DCV CBD program special benefit ( assessments) allocation budget for Year 1 is shown in the following Table:

In order to carry out the DCV CBD programs outlined in the previous section, a Year 1 assessment budget of $693,762 is projected. Since the DCV CBD is being proposed for a 20-year term, projected program costs for future years ( Years 2-20) are set at the inception of the DCV CBD. While future inflationary and other program cost increases are unknown at this point, a maximum annual increase of 7% per year, commensurate to special benefits conferred on each assessed parcel, is incorporated into the projected program costs and assessment rates for the DCV CBD.
Funding carryovers, if any, may be reapportioned the following year for related programs, services and improvements in accordance with the Plan. Detailed annual budgets will be prepared by the Item 7.2 - Written Communications

DOWNTOWN CHULA VISTA CBD – ASSESSMENT ENGINEER’S REPORT 17 expended within the budgeted categories. The Owners’ Association Board of the Directors (“ Property Owners’ Association of the DCV CBD) shall determine the percentage increase, if any, to the annual assessment, not to exceed 7% per year. The Owners’ Association Executive Director shall communicate the annual increase to the City each year in which the DCV CBD operates at a time determined in the Administration Contract held between the Owners’ Association and the City of Chula Vista. No bonds are to be issued in conjunction with the proposed DCV CBD.
Pursuant to the Ordinance, any funds remaining after the 20-Year term will be rolled over into the renewal budget or returned to stakeholders in accordance with the Ordinance. If the DCV CBD is terminated for any reason or disestablished, unencumbered/ unexpended funds will be returned to the property owners in accordance with the Ordinance.
Finding 3. From Section 4(a): “( Determine) the proportionate special benefit derived by each parcel in relationship to the entirety of the..........cost of public improvement( s) or the maintenance and operation expenses........... or the cost of the property related service being provided.
Each identified assessed parcel within the DCV CBD will be assessed based on property characteristics unique only to that parcel. Based on the specific needs and corresponding nature of the program activities to be funded by the proposed DCV CBD ( i.e. Civil Sidewalks-Safety-Cleanliness, District IdentityPlacemaking, Administration and Contingency- Reserve), it is the opinion of this Assessment Engineer that the assessment factors on which to base assessment rates relate directly to the proportionate amount of building area, land area and street frontage of each parcel except as noted herein within one benefit zone.
The calculated assessment rates are applied to the actual assessed factor quantities of each parcel and thereby are proportional to each and every other identified assessed parcel within the DCV CBD as a whole. Larger parcels and those with larger buildings and/or street frontage are projected to impact the demand for services and programs to a greater extent than smaller parcels or smaller buildings or street frontages and thus, are assigned a greater proportionate degree of assessment program and service costs .
The proportionality is further achieved by setting targeted formula component weights for the respective parcel by parcel identified property attributes.
The proportionate special benefit cost for each parcel has been calculated based on proportionate formula components and is listed in the Plan and this Report. The individual percentages ( i.e. proportionate relationship to the total special benefit related program and activity costs) are computed by dividing the individual parcel assessment by the total special benefit program related costs.
Finding 4. From Section 4(a): “ No assessment shall be imposed on any parcel which exceeds the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred on that parcel.” Not only are the proposed program costs reasonable due to the benefit of group purchasing and contracting which would be possible through the proposed DCV CBD, they are also considerably less than other options considered by the DCV CBD Formation Committee. The actual assessment rates for each parcel within the DCV CBD directly relate to the level of service and, in turn, special benefit to be conferred on each parcel based on the respective amount of building area, land area and street frontage of each parcel Item 7.2 - Written Communications

DOWNTOWN CHULA VISTA CBD – ASSESSMENT ENGINEER’S REPORT 18 except as noted herein within one benefit zone.
Finding 5. From Section 4(a): “ Parcels….....that are owned or used by any (public) agency shall not be exempt from assessment….......”
Article XIIID states that “ parcels within a District that are owned or used by any agency, the State of California or the United States shall not be exempt from assessment unless the agency can demonstrate by clear and convincing evidence that those publicly- owned parcels in fact receive no special benefit.” There are currently 27 public and/ or tax exempt owned parcels within the boundaries of the proposed DCV CBD. Of these parcels, 21 are owned by the City of Chula Vista, 2 by the County of San Diego, 1 by Pacific Bell, 1 by Sweetwater Authority ( water agency), 1 by Scripps Health and 1 by Sharp Healthcare.
DCV CBD services are designed to improve the cleanliness and image of assessed publicly owned parcels and facilities for visitors, their employees, students and users of public facilities on publicly owned parcels within the DCV CBD by reducing litter and debris, deterring crime and improving their image, each considered detractions to employment, visitation and use of public facilities if not contained and properly managed. In turn, these services will serve to enhance the public purpose provided by public facilities and parcels within DCV CBD.
It is the opinion of this Assessment Engineer that there is no clear and convincing evidence that any of these public owned and/ or tax exempt parcels would not receive proportionate special benefits and thus, will not be exempt from assessments nor assessed differently than privately owned parcels. The Table below lists all publicly owned parcels within the proposed DCV CBD and their Year 1 assessment amounts:

This report serves as the “ detailed engineer’ s report” to support the benefit property assessments proposed to be levied within the proposed DCV CBD.
Finding 7. From Section 4(c): “ The amount of the proposed assessment for each parcel shall be calculated ( along with) the total amount thereof chargeable to the entire district, the duration of such payments, the reason for such assessment and the basis upon which the amount of the proposed assessment was calculated.”
The individual and total parcel assessments attributable to special property benefits are shown in Appendix 1 to the Plan and this Report. The proposed DCV CBD and resultant assessment levies will continue for 20 years unless disestablished. The reasons for the proposed assessments are outlined in Finding 2 above as well as in the Plan. The calculation basis of the proposed assessment is attributed to building area, land area and street frontage of each parcel except as noted herein within one benefit zone.
Assessment Formula Methodology
Step 1. Select “ Benefit Unit(s)”
Background – Generic Assessment Formula Development
The method used to determine special benefits derived by each identified assessed property within a CBD begins with the selection of a suitable and tangible basic benefit unit. For property related services, such as those proposed in the DCV CBD, the benefit unit may be measured in building size in square feet, parcel land area in square feet or parcel street frontage in linear feet or any combination of these factors.
Factor quantities for each parcel are then measured or otherwise obtained. From these figures, the amount of benefit units to be assigned to each property can be calculated. Special circumstances such as unique geography, land uses, development constraints etc. are carefully reviewed relative to specific programs and improvements to be funded by a CBD in order to determine any levels of different benefit that may apply on a parcel- by-parcel or categorical basis.

DOWNTOWN CHULA VISTA CBD – ASSESSMENT ENGINEER’S REPORT 20 Based on the factors described above such as geography and nature of programs and activities proposed, an assessment formula is developed which is derived from a singular or composite benefit unit factor or factors. Within the assessment formula, different factors may be assigned different “ weights” or percentage of values based on their relationship to programs/services to be funded.
Next, all program and activity costs, including incidental costs, administration and ancillary program costs, are estimated. It is noted, as stipulated in Article XIIID Section 4(b) of the California Constitution, and now required of all property-based assessment districts, indirect or general benefit related costs may not be incorporated into the assessment formula and levied on the district properties; only direct or special” benefits related costs may be used. Indirect or general benefits, if any, must be identified and, if quantifiable, calculated and factored out of the assessment cost basis to produce a “ net” cost figure. In addition, Article XIIID Section 4(b) of the California Constitution also no longer automatically exempts publicly owned property from being assessed unless the respective public agency can provide clear and convincing evidence that their property does not specially benefit from the programs and services to be funded by the proposed special assessments. If special benefit is determined to be conferred upon such properties, they must be assessed in proportion to special benefits conferred in a manner similar to privately owned property assessments. ( See pages 18-19 of this Report for discussion regarding publicly owned parcels within the DCV CBD).
From the estimated program costs, the value of a benefit unit or “unit cost” can be computed by dividing the total amount of estimated program costs by the total number of benefit units. The amount of assessment for each parcel can be computed at this time by multiplying the Unit Cost times the number of Benefit Units per parcel. This is known as “ spreading the assessment” or the “ assessment spread” in that all costs are allocated proportionately or “spread” amongst all benefitting properties within the CBD.
The method and basis of spreading program costs varies from one CBD to another based on local geographic conditions, types of programs and activities proposed, and size and development complexity of the district. CBDs may require secondary benefit zones to be identified to allow for a tiered assessment formula for variable or stepped-down benefits derived based on general land use differentials or levels of services required or programmed to be provided.
DCV CBD Assessment Formula
Based on the specific needs and corresponding nature of the program activities to be funded by the proposed DCV CBD ( i.e. Civil Sidewalks- Safety- Cleanliness, District Identity– Placemaking, Administration and Contingency-Reserve) it is the opinion of this Assessment Engineer that the assessment factors on which to base assessment rates relate directly to the proportionate amount of building area, land area and street frontage of each parcel except as noted herein within one benefit zone.
The “Benefit Units” will be expressed as a combined function of gross building square footage (Benefit Unit “ A”), parcel land square footage ( Benefit Unit “ B”), street frontage ( Benefit Unit “ C”) and residential condominium interior building square footage (Benefit Unit “ D”). Based on the shape of the proposed DCV CBD, as well as the nature of the work program, it is determined that all identified properties will gain a direct and proportionate degree of special benefit based on the respective amount of building area, land area and street frontage of each parcel except as noted herein within one benefit zone. It is noted and explained in more detail on page 21 under “ Special Assessment Circumstances” that residential condominiums will be assessed based only on interior building pad square footage of each unit.

DOWNTOWN CHULA VISTA CBD – ASSESSMENT ENGINEER’S REPORT 21 The interaction of building area, land area and street frontage quantities is a common method of fairly and equitably spreading special benefit costs to the beneficiaries of CBD funded services, programs and improvements. These factors directly relate to the proportion of special benefit each assessed parcel will receive from DCV CBD funded activities, programs and improvements.
Building Area (Benefit Units A & D) is a direct measure of the static utilization of each parcel and its corresponding impact or draw on DCV CBD funded activities. The combined targeted revenue weight of Building Area (Units A & D) is about 40%. Units A and D will actually generate 42,1651% of the overall assessment revenue
Land Area ( Benefit Unit B) is a direct measure of the current and future development capacity of each parcel and its corresponding impact or draw on DCV CBD funded activities. The targeted revenue weight of Land Area ( Unit B) is about 40%. Unit B will actually generate 39.7907% of the overall assessment revenue.
Street Frontage (Benefit Unit C) is a direct measure of each parcel’s corresponding impact or draw on DCV CBD funded activities. The targeted revenue weight of Street Frontage ( Unit C) is about 20%. Unit C will actually generate 18.0442% of the overall assessment revenue.
Special Assessment Circumstances
1. Residential Condominiums (future)
Residential condominium parcels ( which are zoned mixed- use) will be assessed as a separate category.
It is the opinion of this Assessment Engineer that residential condominium parcels will proportionately specially benefit from DCV CBD funded programs and activities, but differently than commercial parcels and other residential parcels with multiple units on them. As such, based on the development configuration of such units which are generally multi floor buildings with no direct land or street frontage, the assessments for residential condominiums shall be assessed based solely on the internal building area of each residential condominium unit at the rate of $0.14 per square foot of internal building pad area, the same building area rate of all other land uses, subject to any approved annual rate increases. It is noted that downtown mixed-use zoning typically allows residential uses such as apartments or condominiums but require a certain amount of commercial ground floor space and units which, in turn, are assessed on a pro-rated basis for parcel land area and street frontage (see below for mixed- use condominium assessment methodology).
2. Mixed- Use Condominiums
Ground floor commercial condominiums within the DCV CBD shall be assessed based on actual land area covered, condominium building area and direct street frontage for each unit. Because such uses are typically developed as part of a multi-floor mixed-use complex, special methodologies are needed to address the levy of assessments on such land uses as follows:
Multi- Floor Commercial Only Condominiums ( Upper Floors) Building area assessed at respective building area rate and pro-rated for land area and street frontage based on building area quantities of the whole complex Multi- Floor Mixed- Use Condominiums

3. Single Family Dwellings ( Non- Condominiums)
There are a few remaining single family occupied dwelling units with the proposed DCV CBD. It is the opinion of this Assessment Engineer that these parcels will not specially benefit from the proposed activities and improvements to be funded by the DCV CBD and thus will not be assessed. In the future, should these uses change and/ or new developments occur on them, they will then be assessed similar to other parcels and land uses within the DCV CBD.
Changes to Building and/or Parcel Size
Any changes in building or parcel size as a result of new construction, demolitions, land adjustments including but not limited to lot splits, consolidations, subdivisions, street dedications, right of way setbacks shall have their assessment adjusted upon final City approval of such building and/ or parcel adjustments.
Other Future Development
Other than future maximum rates and the assessment methodology delineated in this Report, future assessments may increase for any given parcel if such an increase is attributable to events other than an increased rate or revised methodology, such as a change in the density, intensity, or nature of the use of land. Any change in assessment formula methodology or rates other than as stipulated in this Report would require a new Article XIIID ballot procedure in order to approve any such changes.

DOWNTOWN CHULA VISTA CBD – ASSESSMENT ENGINEER’S REPORT 23 Step 3. Calculate Benefit Units for Each Property.
The number of Benefit Units for each identified benefiting parcel within the proposed DCV CBD was computed from data extracted from County Assessor records and maps. These data sources delineate current land uses, property areas and dimensions of record for each tax parcel. While it is understood that this data does not represent legal field survey measurements or detailed title search of recorded land subdivision maps or building records, it does provide an acceptable basis for the purpose of calculating property- based assessments. All respective property data being used for assessment computations will be provided to each property owner in the DCV CBD for their review. If a property owner believes there is an error on a parcel’ s assessed quantities, the DCV CBD may confirm the data with the San Diego County Assessor’ s office. If DCV CBD data matches Assessor’ s data, the property owner may opt to work with the Assessor’ s office to correct the data so that the DCV CBD assessment may be corrected.
Step 4. Determine Assessment Formula
In the opinion of this Assessment Engineer, the general assessment formula for the proposed DCV CBD as shown in the Year 1 Assessment Rate Table above is as follows:
Assessment = Building Area ( Unit A) Sq Ft x Unit A Rate Land Area ( Unit B) Sq Ft x Unit B Rate, plus
Street Frontage ( Unit C) Lin Ft x Unit C Rate
OR
Residential Condominium Building Area ( Unit D) Sq Ft x Unit D Rate Assessment Formula Unit Rates
Based on figures from the Assessable Benefit Units Table above, the assessment rates for each factor and zone are shown as calculated below:
Building Area Rate ( Unit A)
693, 761.98 x 42.1651%) / 2,089, 465 assessable building area units = $ 0.14/sq ft building area Land Area Rate Rate B (Unit B)
693, 761.98 x 39.7907%) / 3,450, 661 assessable land area units = $ 0.08/sq ft land area Street Frontage Rate (Unit C)
693,761.98 x 18.0442%) / 31,296 assessable street frontage units = $ 4.00/ LF street frontage Condo Building Area Rate (Unit D)
Set at $0.14/sq ft of interior unit building area

The complete Year 1 assessment roll of all parcels to be assessed by the DCV CBD is included in this Report as Appendix I.
Step 5. Estimate Total DCV CBD Costs
The total projected 20-year DCV CBD special benefit costs are shown in the Table on page 16 of this Report assuming a maximum 7% increase per year.
Step 6. Separate General Benefits from Special Benefits and Related Costs (Article XIIID) Total Year 1 special and districtwide general benefit related costs are estimated at $693,762. Districtwide general benefits are factored at 2.0% of the total benefit value ( see Finding 2 of this Report) with special benefits set at 98.0%. Article XIIID limits the levy of property assessments to costs attributed to special benefits only. The 2.0% general benefit value is computed to be $ 14,158 with a resultant 98.0% special benefit limit computed at $693, 762. Based on current property data and land uses, this is the maximum amount of Year 1 revenue that can be derived from property assessments from the subject District. All program costs associated with district- wide and site/ activity specific general benefits will be derived from sources other than DCV CBD assessments.
Step 7. Calculate “ Basic Unit Cost”
With a YR 1 assessment revenue portion of the budget set at $693,762 (special benefit only), the Unit Costs rates) are shown earlier in Step 4. The DCV CBD is proposed for a 20- year term. An annual inflationary assessment rate increase of up to 7%, commensurate to special benefits received by each assessed parcel, may be imposed for future year assessments, on approval by the DCV CBD Property Owner’ s Association.
The maximum assessment rates for years 1-20 are shown in the Table below. The assessment rates listed constitute the maximum assessment rates that may be imposed for each year of the 20- year DCV CBD term.

Dear Honorable Mayor & Chula Vista City Council,
Hello! My name is Ron Richie, and I’m writing today representing Grind House to speak to the value the Downtown Chula Vista Association ( DCVA) activities in downtown and to also lend my support for Item 7.2 on the City Council agenda for the establishment of the Downtown Chula Vista Community Benefit District.
My business has operated in downtown for over 9.5 years, and in that time, I can speak to the value and positive activity the DCVA has generated for the downtown area as well as for my business. The daily maintenance services, enhanced landscaping and unique special events organized by the DCVA gives downtown a welcoming appeal and vibrancy that I believe benefits all our downtown stakeholders. I also appreciate the responsiveness and approachability of the DCVA office staff and maintenance workers, as they both work diligently to ensure downtown is presentable and prosperous for businesses of all types.
Thank you for your attention to this important issue.
Sincerely,
Ron Richie

ITEM TITLE
Agreement: Approve an Encampment Delegated Maintenance Agreement with California Department of Transportation (“Caltrans”) for Encampment Removal Activities Along Interstate 5 from Main Street to E Street
Report Number: 26-0208
Location: Interstate 5 from Main Street to E Street (Post Miles: 5.4 to 8.6) Department: Housing and Homeless Services, Police, and Public Works G.C. § 84308 Regulations Apply: No
Environmental Notice: The project qualifies for a Categorical Exemption pursuant to California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) Guidelines Section 15301 Class 1 (Existing Facilities), which categorically exempts maintenance activities such as the removal of litter and debris.
Recommended Action
Adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to enter into an Encampment Delegated Maintenance Agreement for a reimbursable amount in fiscal year 2026-27 of up to $200,000 and appropriate funds therefor. (4/5 Vote Required)
SUMMARY
Beginning in 2025, Caltrans began entering into reimbursement agreements with municipalities that desire to take a more active role in removal of encampments within State right-of-way, to address health and safety issues along the State Interstate system. The recommended action, if approved, would authorize the City of Chula Vista (“City”) to enter into an Encampment Delegated Maintenance Agreement (“EDMA”) for up to $200,000 in reimbursable costs during fiscal year 2026-27 to clear encampments along Interstate 5 from Main Street to E Street.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The proposed activity has been reviewed for compliance with CEQA, and it has been determined that the project qualifies for a Categorical Exemption pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15301 (Existing Facilities), which consists of the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of
City of Chula Vista - City Council
September 1, 2026 Post City Council Agenda
P a g e | 2
existing public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features, involving negligible or no expansion of existing or former use; and where the exceptions listed in CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2 would not apply in that no cumulative impacts were identified, no significant effects on the environment were identified, the project is not adjacent to a scenic highway, no historical resources would be affected by the action, and the project was not identified on a list of hazardous waste sites pursuant to Section 65962.5 of the Government Code. Thus, no further environmental review is required.
BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION
Not applicable.
DISCUSSION
Caltrans began entering into EDMAs with local jurisdictions in 2025, responding to Governor Gavin Newsom’s directives and introduction of a model encampment ordinance to
expedite the removal of encampments throughout California.
An EDMA is a collaborative contract that allows local
municipalities to perform maintenance, such as clearing debris, removing hazards, and addressing unsheltered
encampments, with the costs reimbursed by the State to
clear unsafe and unsanitary homeless encampments along
freeways in the State-owned highway rights-of-way. EDMAs provide a faster and far more efficient process to clear encampments and connect those living in them with
resources that will ultimately end their homelessness.
The City has been working with Caltrans since summer of 2025 on drafting an EDMA, and in late April 2026, Caltrans District 11 was authorized to present the City with a draft for review. Since that time, final details related to enforcement in state right-of-way were being discussed between state agencies, resulting in a final EDMA in late August, and the recommended resolution will authorize the City to execute the EDMA (Attachment 1).
Under the EDMA for this pilot program, Caltrans will
reimburse the City for up to $200,000 of costs incurred through June 30, 2027, to clean up encampments along
Interstate 5 from Main Street to E Street (approximately 3.2 miles), as shown in Figure 1.
The EDMA specifically prohibits the use of funds for law enforcement or outreach activities and only reimburses for direct costs associated with the encampment clean-up
activities.
Figure 1: EDMA Service Area
(Interstate 5)
City of Chula Vista - City Council
September 1, 2026 Post City Council Agenda
P a g e | 3
Staff recommends that City Council authorize the City Manager to enter into the EDMA. The City will make all attempts to maximize existing resources through the Homeless Outreach Team to coordinate with Caltrans and provide outreach resources to the unhoused population in this area. Police Department overtime may be impacted to coordinate and assist with enforcement, but to the maximum extent possible will be absorbed within the Department’s existing budget. A Request for Proposal process is underway to select contractors who will serve as the primary resource for encampment clean-up along the targeted areas of State property. The City will make every effort to keep expenses within the reimbursable amount for fiscal year 2026–27.
Other Related Grant Opportunities
The City has simultaneously partnered on an application to the California Department of Housing and Community Development for the Encampment Resolution Fund (“ERF”). The County of San Diego’s Housing and Community Development Services served as the lead applicant in partnership with the City, the City of National City, and Caltrans. Successful applicants will be notified in September 2026 with funding awarded in January 2027. If successful, the ERF would cover funding for outreach services and housing resources to unsheltered in encampments along Interstate 5 from Main Street located in Chula Vista to Division Street located in National City, consisting of approximately 5.5 miles of state right-of way.
DECISION-MAKER CONFLICT
Staff has reviewed the property holdings of the City Council members and have found no property holdings within 1,000 feet of the boundaries of the property, which is the subject of this action. Consequently, this item does not present a disqualifying real property-related financial conflict of interest under California Code of Regulations Title 2, section 18702.2(a)(7) or (8), for purposes of the Political Reform Act (Cal. Gov’t Code §87100, et seq.).
Staff is not independently aware and has not been informed by any City Council member of any other fact that may constitute a basis for a decision-maker conflict of interest in this matter.
CURRENT-YEAR FISCAL IMPACT
The action would appropriate up to $200,000 in fiscal year 2026-27 for encampment clean-up efforts in the approved state right-of-way, which will be reimbursed by Caltrans through the EDMA. Staff costs associated with outreach, Police Department support, and other ancillary services related to the unhoused in this area are expected to be supported through the fiscal year 2026-27 budget.
ONGOING FISCAL IMPACT
There is no ongoing fiscal impact as the agreement will expire on June 30, 2027.
