WHEREAS, the City desires to amend the above -referenced funding agreement with the County of Santa Clara for preventing and ending homelessness in Mountain View to add a new commuter parking area at Shoreline Lot B; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED: that the City Council of the City of Mountain View hereby authorizes the City Manager or des ignee to amend the Amended and Restated Amphitheatre Ground Lease Agreement with Live Nation Worldwide, Inc., to expand the portion of Shoreline Amphitheatre Lot B that may be used for safe parking to include a new commuter parking area; and be it
FURTHER RESOLVED: that the City Manager or designee is hereby authorized to execute an amendment to the funding agreement with the County of Santa Clara for preventing and ending homelessness in Mountain View to add a new commuter parking area at Shoreline Lot B; and be it
FURTHER RESOLVED: that the City Manager or designee is hereby authorized to amend the Lease Agreement with the County of Santa Clara for use of Lot B of Shoreline Amphitheatre for safe parking to add a new commuter parking area; and be it
FURTHER RESOLVED: that adoption of this Resolution and related actions are exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15301 of the CEQA Guidelines applicable to minor alterations of existing public or private structu res, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features, involving negligible or no expansion of use, and Section 15061(b)(3) because it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity may have a significant effect on the environment. The City considered the potential exceptions to the categorical exemptions pursuant to Section 15300.2 and concluded they are not applicable. Use of the existing parking lots in the operation of temporary safe parking does not impose a sign ificant cumulative impact over time as the use as a parking lot is generally unchanged; is not an unusual circumstance for a city in the Bay Area attempting to assist the homeless and unstably housed affected by the regional housing crisis; does not impact scenic or historical resources; and does not entail hazardous sites as it relates to existing parking lots amends.
