Richards, Director of Community Development DATE: May 7, 1990 (CC meetin(f of 5/16/90) SUBJECT: SPHERE OF INFLUENCE STUDY Background The City Council at their March , 1990 meeting directed staff to begin a Sphere of Influence Study that would roughly match the boundaries of Waterworks District No. 1. At that time the Council was interested in having the results of this study presented to them no later 90 days from March 7, 199C -. On April 4, 1990 staff presented Work for a Sphere of Influence planning consultants in a Request 1990 the RFP was sent out to six The RFP was both mailed and FAXEL each firm advising them of a sh. proposal.

Also, a phone call was made to -t t imf � frame to complete their be submitted by 5:00 p.m. May 7, ratted only PBR provided a reply P13R proposal has been provided The Phillips Brandt Reddick (PBR) proposal differs from the City's RFP in several ways. First, PBR's proposal does not include a "Plan of Services." It is their ( )pinion that one is not necessary to process a Sphere change throug:l LAFCO PBR cites the fact that a "Plan for Services" is detailed and costly item which is not necessary to achieve a Sphere amei)dment. Second, the PBR proposal 799 Moorpark Avenue Moorpark, California 93021 (805) 529 -6864 The Honorable City Council (CC meeting of 5/16/90) May 7, 1990 Page 2 suggests the inclusion of this Sphere of Influence Study to be made a part of the ongoing General Plan Update to the Land Use and Circulation Elements. PBR states that "the Scope of Work ", schedule and budget herein are contingent upon concurrent modification to the present General Plan Update Scope of Work. Third, the PBR proposal does not identify the project area, but includes that it will cover the City and its logical Sphere area. The City's RFP listed the general boundaries of Waterworks District No. 1. The PBR proposal does identify the need to prepare an EIR for the Sphere of Influence Study identified in the RFP. However, it is their recommendation to expand the existing General Plan Update EIR to include the Sphere of Influence Study area. City staff made no previous environmental finding,, l;ut did request an opinion in the RFP. There is an optional phase titled Capital. Improvements Plan (CIP) . However, there is no cost estimate given by PBR in their reply. Also, they would rely upon the City Engineer to provide the programmatic and cost element of the CIP. The PBR staff assigned to the project are general the same as those assigned to the General Plan Update contract. The firm of Austin - Faust Associates has been included as a subcontractor. The total cost associated with PBR's proposal to accomplish the Sphere of Influence Study is $38,903. 'Phis does not include any changes, additions or modifications necessary to the General Plan Update process and contract. The time proposed by PBR is found on page 18 of the attached proposal packet From start to submittal to LAFCO is four months. It is unclear to staff at this time, how this will be accomplished inasmuch as the General Plan Update will still be in process. Also, the proposal does not state how the Sphere of Influence Study will iffect the General Plan Update process. At present staff is attempting to set a meeting between PBR and Councilmembers (Lawrason and Harper) who previously met with PBR concerning their General Plan Update contract. We anticipate that a meeting wi.1 be held prior to the May 16 meeting with any additional report and recommendations to be presented to the Council by th,- 1 >mm. tte*� at that meeting.
