SUMMARY
The City of Chula Vista, as the lead agency, has been awarded a $916,800 regional Used Oil Competitive Grant to enhance public education and outreach efforts for the South Bay/East County Regional Used Oil Program.

The Environmental Services Section of the Public Works Department is requesting approval of the contract with MJE Marketing Services. MJE Marketing Services was the most competitive agency in the Request for Proposal process utilizing Planet Bid and the assistance of the Finance Department and Communications Manager. MJE will provide the City with the development of two commercials for the used oil and filter recycling program. Additionally, they will develop the strategy for carrying the message over to outdoor, print, social media and other forms of media throughout the campaign.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
