SUMMARY
Transmitted herewith is the City's investment report for the quarter ended March 31, 2014. A separate information memo was distributed to the City Council in April to meet the reporting requirements set forth in the California Government Code Sections 53600 et seq. and the City of Chula Vista Investment Policy.

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" in accordance with Section 15378(b)(4) of the State CEQA Guidelines because it involves only acceptance of the Quarterly Investment Report; therefore it is an government fiscal activity that will not result in a direct or indirect physical change in the environmental; therefore, pursuant to Section 15060(c)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines the activity is not subject to CEQA. Thus, no environmental review is necessary.

BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
Not Applicable
