COUNCIL POLICY CONSIDERATION:

The proposed purchase furthers the City Council's Strategic Plan goals to ensure public safety, increase conservation and sustainability, and maintain fiscal responsibility and stability.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

The proposed action has been determined to be exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), the Commonsense Exemption that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. The proposed contract would make materials available for automotive repairs therefore, it will have no adverse impact on the environment.
