MEMORANDUM
TO: The Honorable City Council
FROM: Patrick J. Richards, Director of Community Development '
DATE: September 13, 1990 (CC Meeting of 9-19-90)
SUBJECT: PBR SPHERE OF INFLUENCE AND REVISED GENERAL PLAN UPDATE
CONTRACTS
Background
At the City Council 's meeting of May 30, 1990, the Council
authorized the Mayor to execute both a Sphere of Influence Study
contract and a revised General Plan Update contract with PBR. The
agreed upon amount for the Sphere of Influence Study was $38,903
and the agreed upon amount for the revised General Plan Update
contract was for $15,750. At that May 30th meeting, the Council
also directed that $55,000 be appropriated from the Community
Development Fund to pay for the Sphere Study and the additional
work for the General Plan Update.
Discussion
The $15,750 revised General Plan Update contract amount approved
by the Council on May 30th was not the correct contract amount.
The actual proposal by PBR was for $17,250 which included an
additional $1,500 for property ownership research and mapping.
Another change to the contract amount is needed to fund additional
environmental impact report (EIR) alternative analysis . Staff has
discussed the need for additional alternative analysis with the
General Plan Update Consultant Selection Committee. PBR provided
information to the Committee and staff that based on the existing
General Plan Update contract, the Draft EIR will analyze a project
which consists of the proposed City land use plan plus the proposed
Sphere of Influence study area land use plan. It is staff's
opinion that an alternative which should also be studied in the EIR
is the proposed City land use plan with no change in land use in
the Sphere area. This alternative would allow comparison of the

.P1
The Honorable City Council
September 13, 1990
Page 2
environmental impacts associated with development in the City
limits in comparison to the combined impacts of the City land use
plan and the additional Sphere study area. PBR has identified that
analysis of this additional alternative would cost $2,500 . The
consensus of the General Plan Update Consultant Selection Committee
is that this additional alternative should be studied.
At the September 10, 1990 workshop, the Council directed PBR and
Austin-Foust to revise the proposed land use plan for the Sphere
of Influence study area to result in a reduction of traffic on
designated roadways . Today, PBR informed staff that preparation
of this revised plan would cost $4,480 (labor and reimbursables) .
The revised contract is attached.
To accomplish all of the work discussed above, the Council would
need to approve a revised General Plan Update Contract for the
amount of $24,230 ( $15,750 + $1,500 + $2,500 + $4,480 = $24,230) .
Recommendation
1 . Approve and authorize the Mayor to sign the revised General
Plan Update contract for the amount of $24,230.
2 . Direct that an additional $6,000 ($1,500 + $4,480 = $5,980)
be appropriated from the Community Development Fund to pay for
the revised land use plan for the Sphere of Influence study
area.
3. Direct that the $2,500 cost for analysis of an additional EIR
alternative be paid for out of the funds collected from the
General Plan Update applicants.

ITEM I.B.
TO: Reviewers of the Proposal
FROM: Cheri Phelps
RE: City of Moorpark: Sphere of Influence Study- Request for Proposal
PBR is pleased to submit this proposal in response to your Request for Proposal for
services to accomplish a Sphere of Influence Study. The process of gaining LAFCO
approval for a Sphere of Influence can be difficult, lengthy and costly. The process is
complicated and the government code at times unwieldy. Our goal and approach taken
in this proposal is to achieve for the City:
1) an analysis of the sphere area which is adequate in order that the City
Council may comfortably and confidently determine an appropriate and
justifiable sphere of influence
2) prepare documentation necessary to achieve LAFCO approval of the Sphere
of Influence Amendment request;
3) assure that Sphere of Influence process allows for the current General Plan
Update to proceed, resulting in Land Use and Circulation Elements which
are useful, meaningful tools for guiding development; and
4) a General
Plan
Update and Sphere
of Influence Study which minimizes
consultant
costs
and minimizes delays
to present schedules.
I
The RFP is well written and seems to reflect the same goals we've stated above.
However, our experience with other projects and our recent discussions with Ventura
County and other LAFCOs leads us to recommend modifications to the approach taken
in the RFP. The key items which we recommend for modification, and why, are
identified below:
1. A major part of the RFP Scope of Work, calls for the preparation of a "Plan for
Services" (Part I, 1A) for the entire sphere area. A "Plan of Services" is required
by government code section 56653. This relates to annexations only. A Plan of
Services is a detailed and costly item which is not necessary to achieve LAFCO
approval of a sphere amendment, nor can it be accomplished with reasonable
accuracy based upon the data available today. The level of detail required in a
Plan of Services is generally achievable only at the time of annexation, not with
a Sphere of Influence request. At this point of annexation, a development
proposal is likely to have been well thought out. In addition, a city will already
have addressed the property to be annexed within the Elements of an adopted
General Plan. Until a General Plan and its accompanying EIR have addressed
the question of the appropriate location, kind and intensity of uses for property
within a sphere area it is impractical and would represent too much of a
"guesstimate" to prepare a Plan of Services as defined by LAFCO law.
2. LAFCO defines a Sphere of Influence Amendment application as a "project"
under CEQA. As such LAFCO i� very unlikely to process the city's sphere
request with out an EIR. LAFCO will accept an EIR which has been prepared
for a General Plan Update if that EIR and General Plan Update include the
sphere area. At present the General Plan Update and EIR do not include the
sphere area. Thus it is likely, should the City proceed with its present strategy
regarding the separation of sphere study and the General Plan Update that a
separate EIR would have to be prepared for the sphere area. A separate EIR
would add a substantial amount of time and costs to a Sphere of Influence
Amendment schedule. In such a case., the city's Sphere of Influence and General
Plan Update EIRs would both be prepared using similar analytical methods, data
sources, etc. A single EIR covering both the sphere area and incorporated area
would not only be more cost efficient but would perform an analysis from the
more logical viewpoint of the City's ultimate configuration. Two separate EIRs
would evaluate the city and its sphere as separate projects.
It is our recommendation that the General Plan Update and EIR be expanded to
include both the city and its sphere
In view of the above, we suggest that city staff, PBR and Austin -Foust Associates (AFA)
coordinate to amend the current General Plan Update and EIR scope of work to include
the proposed Sphere of Influence area in the analysis. As we stated in our letter dated
April 6, 1990, if the property located within a logical and appropriate sphere area is
excluded from the current General Plan Update, the update process prevents the City
from planning for the orderly development of those adjacent areas which will have a
direct effect on the currently incorporated area. The General Plan is a document
intended to plan comprehensively for the long term. The General Plan Update process
presents an opportunity to develop local and regional solutions to issues such as traffic,
employment opportunities, housing availability and fiscal solvency that are not achievable
on a project by project basis. The larger the area of study, the more varied and
innovative are the opportunities for solutions to planning issues. We continue to be
concerned that the present General Plan Update scope of work (which includes only the
unincorporated area) will result in the adoption of two elements which will be useful and
valid for a relatively short time. As soon as a new Sphere of Influence is adopted,
information, data and assumptions would he available which would very likely dictate
changes to those two "new" elements.
Should the city concur with the above approach, a "scaled down" scope of work could be
pursued for the Sphere of Influence Study. Such a suggested scope of work is included
herein. The scope of work, schedule and budget herein are contingent upon concurrent
modifications to the present General Plan 1_ plate Scope of Work.
ITEM I.C.
CITY OF MOORPARK - SPHERE OF INFLUENCE STUDY
SUGGESTED SCOPE OF WORK
May 7, 1990
PHASE ONE: BASE MAPS /INTRODUCTORY EXHIBITS
Task A: Prepare a base map which can be utilized at presentation and document
scale. The geographic area covered will include the City and its logical
sphere area.
Task B: Prepare introductory exhibits (up to two) which clearly show the following:
1. Existing topography
2. Existing urban areas
3. Existing open space and agricultural areas
4. Existing zoning and related uses
5. Existing industrial uses (including but not limited to oil and mineral
extraction per state law)
6. Existing major highways and freeways
7. Existing boundaries of the city or district and adjacent jurisdictions
8. Existing public ownership and public easements
PHASE TWO: DRAFT LAFCO SUBMnTAL DOCUMENT
Task A: Based upon land use designations and circulation improvements identified
in the General Plan Update, prepare a written draft document including
exhibits (as noted) which:
1. Identifies present and planned land uses and arterials in the proposed
sphere area (one large and one document scale exhibit provided);
2. Identifies the present and probable need for public facilities and
services in the sphere area (two document scale exhibits provided);
3. Identifies the present capacity of public facilities and adequacy of
public services which the City /contractor provides or is authorized
to provide; and
4. Identifies the existence of any relevant social or economic
communities of interest in the area.
S. Includes a narrative which:
a. explains the relationship of the proposed sphere to existing
City and County plans and programs; and
b. provides justification for the sphere amendment request.
Task B: Submit the above draft document to staff for review.
Task C: Prepare a revised draft document per staff comments. Submit twenty (20)
copies to staff for appropriate distribution.
PHASE THREE: MEETINGS: THROUGH CITY COUNCIL ADOPTION
Task A:
1. PBR will meet with staff two times regarding the preparation of the draft study.
2. Austin -Foust Associates will meet with staff one time regarding the preparation
of the draft study.
3. PBR will attend one public hearing regarding the draft document.
4. Austin -Foust Associates will attend one city public hearing regarding the draft
document.
Additional meetings can occur with compensation on an hourly basis.
PHASE FOUR: LAFCO SUBMITTAL
Task A: Per City Council direction, PBR will revise the draft document and prepare
the following for submittal to LAFCO:
1. Initial Study per CEOA Guidelines (2 copies)
2. LAFCO submittal document (50 copies) (content items are listed in
Phase One above)
3. A current City of Moorpark General Plan (updated Land Use and
Circulation Elements /other elements)
4. General Plan Update FIR (1 copy)
3
5. Draft cover letter of transmittal (for City edit signature)
Task B: Submit the draft LAFCO submittal package to staff for final review.
Task C: Modify as necessary per staff comments.
Task D: Submit Sphere of Influence Amendment request package to LAFCO on
behalf of the City.
PHASE FIVE: CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS PLAN (CIP) (OPTIONAL PHASE)
The city's RFP mentions the desire for a CIP. Due to the largely undeveloped and
large multiple ownerships nature of the proposed sphere area, it is likely that most
capital improvements typically addressed in a CIP will be the responsibility of
development applicants. Thus, any CIP prepared for the sphere area would be atypical.
CIPs are usually intended as a tool for scheduling and anticipating financing of publicly
funded infrastructure improvements. As so little will be known about future development
proposals for the sphere area at the time this study is to be undertaken, estimations of
infrastructure location, timing and sizing may be premature.
It should be noted that the preparation of a CIP is not required for LAFCO approval
of a sphere area. PBR recommends that the city defer this phase until future action by
LAFCO is certain. Should the city choose to prepare a CIP at this time, we would
recommend the following CIP scope of work be followed:
In general, CIPs consist of three major elements: 1) the nature, location, and
phasing of planned public improvements; 2) the cost of constructing the identified
improvements; 3) the mechanisms used to finance such improvements. PBR's
scope of work would be limited to the third element, that of the development of
policies and strategies related to the financing of capital improvements. As such,
we would rely upon the city's contract engineer, Wildan and Associates, to prepare
21
the first two elements: the programmatic and cost elements of the CIP. It
would be appropriate and most cost effective if Wildan and Associates, which is
already under contract with the city, has necessary background data, is familiar
with city standards and has CIP experience were to perform this work. Our
analysis would build upon the city's existing five -year CIP planning process.
Task A: Meet with representatives of pertinent city departments (including
Finance, Planning, and Public Works) to review the existing CIP and
document major policy considerations and issues.
Task B: Collect information on existing and projected service standards
associated with services and facilities under the jurisdiction of the
city.
Task C: Collect information on CIP- related policies and practices of Ventura
County and selected other cities in Ventura County in order to
determine relevant emerging trends in government CIP practice.
Task D: Conduct a limited number of interviews with major landowners
located within sphere to determine private sector philosophy and
approach to funding of capital improvements.
Task E: Review data and analysis prepared by city contract engineer
Task F: Prepare a written report containing the following items:
1. Statement of city CIP financing goals and policies;
2. Review of available funding sources and financing techniques;
3. Identification of financing strategies by CIP.
Again, this is proposed as an OPTIONAL TASK.
9
PHASE SIX: PROJECT COORDINATION
Task A: It is anticipated that coordination of the Sphere of Influence Study will
include:
1. Telecommunications with staff
2. Three monthly status reports for review by staff and distribution as
appropriate
3. Scope and contract coordination with AFA
All meetings appear as separate phases.
PHASE SEVEN: LAFCO MEETINGS
Task A: PBR will attend the following number of meetings:
1. One meeting with city staff
2. Two meetings with LAFCO, LAFCO /city staff
3. Two LAFCO public hearings
Additional meetings may occur with compensation on an hourly basis.
Task B: Austin -Foust Associates will attend:
1. One meeting with LAFCO staff or LAFCO /city staff or exclusively
city staff
2. One LAFCO public heanng
C.
PHASE EIGHT: REVISIONS AS REQUESTED BY LAFCO
Task A: Minor LAFCO requests for exhibit changes or additio mentarionare
included in this proposal. Additional research o substantial modificat'
are not included. 7
Task B: Should LAFCO adopt a sphere boundary which is different than that
submitted by the City, PBR will prepare a final modified reproducible
exhibit and one final colored blackline reflecting the changes.

'D: Consultant review of existing county base maps and city maps; comparative
with aerial photographs and field surveys as required to prepare base maps.
PR UCT: Two base maps (at presentation and document scales): l) immediate incor-
pora d area, 2) incorporated area and proposed sphere of influence area.
3: REVIEW AND EVALUATE EXISTING DATA,/DEVELOP PLANNING BASE
DATA
OBJ CTIVE: Compile all existing information necessary for preparation of the general
plan update; organize a comprehensive planning data base; and identify missing or
incomplete data prior to initiation of planning studies.
ME OD: Each member of the project team will prepare a checklist of the types of
data needed to prepare the general plan update. These lists will be compiled by PBR
and ased to coordinate a centralized effort to acquire necessary existing data. Each
member of the consultant team will review existing data, sort out that which is valid, and
identify data gaps. From the base data review and analysis, existing community
con Lions and trends will be identified. A lot -by -lot inventory will also be conducted as
part of this effort. Basic community needs /problems, opportunities and constraints
affe�ng the city's evolution to the year 201.0 will also be identified as related to the
n
Use Element and Circulation Element. This task, while completed for the
gyrated area, will be repeated for the proposed sphere of influence area.
UCT: A baseline data report containing text and graphics depicting existing base
conditions, trends, needs, opportunities and constraints. The baseline data report

of thi September 1990 contract amendment, amend the baseline data report to include
data elevamt to the proposed sphere of influence area pursuant to the above objective
and ethodoloay.
4: TRAFFIC FORECAST /CIRCULATION ANALYSIS
O CTIVE: To compile all existing information on the current circulation system, to
iden fy the potential impacts on the existing system, to determine current and future
traffir generation and distribution, volume and capacity. Three concept alternatives have
been developed for the incorporated area as of May 1990. This task will be repeated
for a proposed sphere of influence area and thus four additional traffic model
alteratives will be run as a result of the September 1990 contract amendment.
Transportation Analysis Zones (TAZ) identified for the May 1990 alternatives will be
u ' ' d to cover the addition of the sphere area.
10D: This task will involve using land use data to produce long -range traffic
sts. Of importance in forecasting is the separation of local and regional traffic
ments. The former will be based on countywide traffic analysis data, while the
will be derived from land use forecasts within the city and its sphere of influence.
