SUMMARY
As of January 26, 2015, the City is no longer operating a transit bus fleet. Consequently, Transit staff is recommending donating thirty eight (38) spare bus bike racks to MTS where they will be put in service benefiting the riding public. Per CVMC Section 2.56.120, the City Manager determines the disposition of the property to best serve the City's interest.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The Environmental Review Coordinator 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 proposed action involves continuing administrative/ maintenance activities by the City of Chula Vista. 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.
DISCUSSION
