SECTION 2. The Mayor and City Council hereby authorize the Agency Director of Administrative Services to amend the project budget in the amount of $864,908 for the I- 215/University Parkway interchange project (SS04-019).
SECTION 3. As the decision-making body for the project, the City Council has reviewed and considered the information contained in the administrative record for the proposed project.
Based upon the facts and information contained in the administrative record, including all written and oral evidence presented to the City Council, the City Council finds, as follows:
(1) The administrative record has been completed in compliance with CEQA, the State CEQA Guidelines, and the City’s Local CEQA Guidelines.
(2) The proposed project is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to Section 15301 (Class 1 – Existing Facilities) of the CEQA Guidelines because it involves the removal and replacement of Traffic Signal poles and signal light upgrade.
Additionally, the City Council finds this Resolution is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in that the activity is covered by the general rule that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Where it can be seen with certainty, as in this case, that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA.
