WHEREAS, the additional $8,200 is available as part of the unencumbered Development
Service Fund balance and, accordingly, appropriation of those monies is being requested; and
WHEREAS, the Development Services Director has reviewed the proposed contract
approval for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has
determined that the activity (approval of a contract to conduct a survey) is not a "Project" as
defined under Section 15378 of the State CEQA Guidelines; therefore, pursuant to Section
15060(c)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines the activity is not subject to CEQA. Thus, no
environmental review of the contract approval is required.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of
Chula Vista hereby approves the appropriation of $8,200 from the available (unassigned) fund
balance of the Development Services Fund to the Services and Supplies expense category of the
same fund to contract for historical resources survey services.
