RESOLUTION NO. ____ (2024)
AUTHORIZING AN APPROPRIATION IN THE AMOUNT OF $900,000 FROM THE CITY’S UNASSIGNED GENERAL
FUND BALANCE TO THE CAPITAL PROJECT FUND TO ADDRESS IMMEDIATE- AND LONG-TERM IMPROVEMENTS AND UPGRADES AT THE JOINVILLE AND MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. POOL FACILITIES.
WHEREAS, the City Council considers mid-year budget balancing through adjustments, appropriations, designations and transfers to adjust the current-year budget to meet anticipated changes in departmental budgetary needs; and
WHEREAS, the City Council recognizes the need to make immediate-term improvements at both Joinville and Martin Luther King Jr. (MLK) pool facilities to allow for operation of aquatic programming in Summer 2025; and
WHEREAS, the City Council recognizes the need to scope necessary upgrades to extend the useful life of the Joinville facility to coincide with the remainder of the City’s lease period for the adjacent parkland that expires in 2040; and
WHEREAS, the City Council recognizes the need to initiate community engagement and visioning process for upgrading the MLK facility to include pool renovations and upgrades to serve as the City’s resilience center; and
WHEREAS, additional funding is required to cover the estimated $500,000 funding to award the construction contract to make immediate-term improvements; and WHEREAS, additional funding is required to cover the estimated $200,000 funding to scope necessary upgrades to extend the useful life of the Joinville facility; and WHEREAS, additional funding for the King Pool is required because it currently does not have enough remaining available budget to cover the estimated $200,000 funding to initiate community engagement and visioning process for upgrading the MLK facility to include pool renovations and upgrades to serve as the City’s resilience center; and
WHEREAS, sufficient funding in the City’s unassigned fund balance from the General Fund is available to appropriate the $900,000 to satisfy the additional funding needs.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN MATEO, CALIFORNIA, HEREBY RESOLVES that:
1. This action is not a project subject to CEQA because it is a government fiscal activity which does not involve any commitment to any specific project which may result in a potentially significant physical impact on the environment. (CEQA Guidelines Section 15378(b)(4).) This action is also categorically exempt from CEQA as an “existing facility,” because it consists of the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features, involving negligible or no expansion of existing or former use. (CEQA Guidelines Section 15301.)
2. An appropriation of $900,000 from the unassigned fund balance in the General Fund to the Capital Project Fund is authorized.
