Find that the proposed action is not a
project subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 21065 of CEQA and Sections 15060(c)(2), 15060(c)(3), and 15378 of the State CEQA Guidelines,

Recommendation of the
Legislative Policy Committee
:

At the March 7, 2023, meeting of the Legislative
Policy Committee, the Committee approved the staff recommendations.

Additionally, the Committee recommended
amending both platforms to note
that City Council declared a climate emergency on January 30, 2023 and set a goal to source 100% of Pasadena’s electricity from carbon free sources by 2030.

Lastly, the Committee noted its intent
to revisit the platforms later
this year to discuss potential changes to the documents’ structure and tone to further support city priorities with unified, proactive advocacy.
