Adoption of this Ordinance does not require review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) since it does not constitute a “project” pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378; and under the “common sense” exemption CEQA Guideline section 15061(b)(3) because it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that it will have a significant environmental effect.

“project” within the meaning of Public Resources Code section 21065, as it can be seen with certainty that the action will not have in effect on the environment.
2.5 Receive and File the Community Development Department FY 2025–26 Q1 Report (July– September). This item is not a “project” under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because it does not involve an activity that has the potential to cause a direct or reasonably foreseeable physical change in
the environment. (Cal. Pub. Res. Code Section 21065).
2.6 Approve a Consultant Contract for the Creek Park Parking Lot Contraflow Bike Lane Project.
This project design is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under a Class 6 categorical exemption, because the scope of work consists of data gathering, analysis, and preparation of plans and specifications for a project. No construction or alteration will be undertaken. (14 Cal. Code Regs. § 15306). When the plans and specifications are finalized and ready for bidding and construction, a CEQA analysis will be undertaken at that time.
