RESOLUTION R20XX-XX
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF NAPA, STATE OF CALIFORNIA, AUTHORIZING THE PARKING GARAGE FEASIBILITY STUDY AND ADJUSTING THE PARKING DEVELOPMENT IMPACT FEE BUDGET BY $200,000 AS DOCUMENTED BY BUDGET AMENDMENT NO. 125P05 AND DETERMINING THE ACTIONS AUTHORIZED BY THIS RESOLUTION ARE EXEMPT FROM CEQA.
WHEREAS, on January 4, 2005 the City Council established by Ordinance 2005-3 a Parking Impact Fee on New Non-Residential Development in the Parking Exempt Overlay District to Fund Public Parking Facilities; and WHEREAS, The Parking Development Impact Fee Fund has an undesignated fund balance of $3.35 million from fees collected from downtown development projects; WHEREAS, potential sites within the Downtown and Parking Exempt Overlay District have been evaluated for a new parking structure; WHEREAS, a feasibility study for a new parking structure at one or two viable publicly owned sites would be required to evaluate the sites, estimate costs and funding options, and consider community benefits; WHEREAS, City Council action is needed to approve Budget Adjustment No. 125P05 to appropriate $200,000 from the Parking Development Impact Fee Fund for a Parking Facility Feasibility Study on select sites within the Downtown; WHEREAS, the City Council has considered all information related to this matter, as presented at the public meetings of the City Council identified herein, including any supporting reports by City Staff, and any information provided during public meetings.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the City Council of the City of Napa, as follows:
The City Council hereby finds that the facts set forth in the recitals to this Resolution are true and correct, and establish the factual basis for the City Council’s adoption of this Resolution.
Staff has determined that the actions authorized by this resolution are not in-and-of-itself a “project” (pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15378) since they do not result in a physical change in the environment. Staff has also determined that the actions are exempt from environmental review on a separate and independent basis pursuant to CEQA Guideline 15306 as information collection as the feasibility analysis would gather information and/or conduct a study leading to a potential action (future parking structure) that the City has not yet approved, adopted, or funded.
The City Council hereby approves Budget Amendment No. 125P05 to appropriate $200,000 from the Parking Impact Fee Fund for a Parking Facility Feasibility Study within Downtown attached hereto as Exhibit “A” and incorporated herein by reference; This Resolution shall take effect immediately upon its adoption.
I HEREBY CERTIFY that the foregoing Resolution was duly adopted by the City Council of the City of Napa at a public meeting of said City Council held on the 19th day of November, 2024, by the following vote:
AYES:
