A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF MENIFEE ADOPTING THE CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM FOR FISCAL YEAR 2025-2030
WHEREAS, the City of Menifee’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is a five year program adjusted annually that outlines public improvements and estimated expenditures to construct improvements. The current CIP has been updated for the 2025-2030 time period for City Council review and consideration; and WHEREAS, staff has prepared a Five-Year CIP Plan for Fiscal Years (FY)s 2025- 2030 which includes proposed funding for each project presented in the CIP, with some projects spanning multiple fiscal years; and
WHEREAS, the proposed Five-Year CIP Plan contains specifically identified projects for FYs 2025/2026 and 2026/2027 for budget appropriation, and a comprehensive plan of proposed capital improvement projects and funding allocations for the three fiscal years thereafter; and
WHEREAS, Government Code Section 65401 requires that City’s Planning Commission make a determination that the CIP is in conformance with the City’s General Plan; and
WHEREAS, the proposed CIP for FYs 2025-2030 was presented to the City of Menifee Planning Commission at its regularly scheduled public meeting of May 14, 2025; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission, by Resolution No. PC 25-664, made a finding that the CIP for Fiscal Years 2025-2030 conforms to the Menifee General Plan; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has caused to be transmitted to the City Council a copy of its report and resolution finding that the CIP for Fiscal Years 2025- 2030 conforms to the City’s General Plan; and
WHEREAS, the FY 2025-2030 CIP is not a ‘project’ within the meaning of Section 15378(b)(4) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines (Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations) and is therefore exempt from the requirements of CEQA. The CIP is a fiscal budgeting and long-range planning tool. It does not commit the City to construction or implementation of any specific project; and WHEREAS, the FY 2025-2030 CIP is further exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines as it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the adoption of this CIP may have a significant effect on the environment. The CIP is a prioritizing and funding allocation program and cannot and does not have the potential to cause a significant effect on the environment. No physical activity will occur until all required environmental reviews are conducted at the

3 time the physical improvements prioritized in the CIP are undertaken at a future unspecified date; and
WHEREAS, notice of the City Council public hearing on the proposed CIP was provided and published on June 3, 2025 in compliance with Government Code Section 66002; and
WHEREAS, the City Council considered testimony and evidence presented at the public hearing on June 18, 2025, and reviewed the proposed CIP for Fiscal Years 2025-2030 in light of all information presented.
NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Menifee does find, determine and declare:
Section 1. The City Council confirms and accepts the finding of the City of Menifee Planning Commission that the CIP for Fiscal Years 2025-2030 conforms to the City of Menifee General Plan.
Section 2. The City Council finds that the Five-Year CIP Plan for FYs 2025-2030, including the FY 2025/2026 and 2026/2027 biennial budget, demonstrates the efficient use of public funds relating to the implementation of capital improvement projects anticipated to be undertaken throughout the City over the course of the ensuing five years.
Section 3. The City Council hereby finds adoption of the CIP is exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15262 of the CEQA Guidelines which covers feasibility or planning studies related to possible future actions. The City Council further finds that that it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the adoption of this CIP may have a significant effect on the environment. The CIP is a prioritizing and funding allocation program and cannot and does not have the potential to cause a significant effect on the environment. No physical activity will occur until all required environmental reviews are conducted at the time the physical improvements prioritized in the CIP are undertaken at a future unspecified date. Accordingly, the adoption of this CIP is therefore exempt from the environmental review requirements of CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3).
Section 4. The CIP for Fiscal Years 2025-2030, including appropriations for FYs 2025/2026 and 2026/2027, is hereby approved and adopted. A copy of the CIP, hereby adopted and certified by the City Clerk, shall be filed with the City Manager or a designated representative, and a further copy so certified shall be placed and shall remain on file in the Office of the City Clerk where it shall be available for inspection.
Section 5. The City Clerk shall certify to the adoption of this Resolution.
Section 6. This Resolution shall take effect upon the date of its passage and adoption.
PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED this 18th day of June, 2025.
