BE IT RESOLVED BY THE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. The Mayor and City Council hereby authorize the City Manager, or his designee, as the signatory authority to execute all agreements and certifications in support of the EECBG project.
SECTION 2. The Director of Finance and Management Services is hereby authorized to amend the FY 2025/26 Capital Improvement Program to add the traffic design and construction in a total project total amount of $770,000 and appropriate the $40,000 from the Traffic Safety Fund for 2026/27 for design of the traffic signal and appropriate $600,000 from the Traffic Safety Fund for construction and appropriate $100,000 from the Traffic Safety Fund for contingencies and appropriate $30,000 for construction management and Staff time from the Traffic Safety Fund.
SECTION 3.CEQA. The Project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15302, Replacement or Reconstruction (“Class 2’).

improvements and replacement of existing traffic signs with traffic signals located on the same site.
The City has also considered whether the proposed Project is subject to any exception to the Class 2 exemption, as set forth in State CEQA Guidelines section 15300.2. No exception applies for the following reasons:
a) The location exception only applies to Class 3, 4, 5, 6, and 11 exemptions, none of which are being utilized here.
b) The proposed Project would not result in any significant cumulative impacts on the environment. The cumulative impacts exception does not apply because the Project has no incrementally significant impacts on the environment.
c) A categorical exemption may be subject to an exception where there is a reasonable possibility that the activity will have a significant effect on the environment due to unusual circumstances. The proposed Project does not involve any unusual circumstances and has no potential to result in a significant impact on the environment.
d) Under the “scenic highways” exception, a categorical exemption may be subject to an exception where the project may result in damage to scenic resources within a highway officially designated as a state scenic highway. The exception does not apply here as the Project would not damage any scenic resources within a state scenic highway. e) The Project is not located on a site which is included on any list compiled pursuant to Section 65962.5 of the Government Code. f) The Project site does not contain a historical resource.
SECTION 4.Severability. If any provision of this Resolution or the application thereof to any person or circumstance is held invalid, such invalidity shall not affect other provisions or applications, and to this end the provisions of this Resolution are declared to be severable.
SECTION 5. Effective Date. This Resolution shall become effective immediately.
