Body
SUMMARY
On August 8, 1978, the City Council by Resolution No. 9221, adopted Council Policy No. 478-01 to establish an equitable participation by private developers for the financing and/or installation of traffic signals on public streets within the City. The proposed action would make the Traffic Signal Fee exemptions consistent with the City's Transportation and Public Facility Development Impact Fee (DIF) programs in exempting Community-Purpose Facilities from paying the fee.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The Development Services Director has reviewed the proposed activity for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined that the activity is not a "Project" as defined under Section 15378 of the State CEQA Guidelines because the activity consists of a governmental administrative/fiscal activity which does not involve any commitment to any specific project which may result in a potentially significant physical impact on the environment. Therefore, pursuant to Section 15060(c)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines the activity is not subject to CEQA. Thus, no environmental review is required. Although environmental review is not required at this time, once the scope of individual traffic signal projects that may be funded have been defined, environmental review will be required for each project and the appropriate environmental determination will be made.
