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 (b)(4) of the State
CEQA Guidelines because it does not involve a physical change to 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 necessary.
RECOMMENDATION - Council adopt the resolution.

DISCUSSION
The new sports camps for ages 8-14 being proposed for Salt Creek Recreation Center will
take place during CVESD and SUHSD spring and summer intersession breaks in March,
April, June and July of 2009. Camps will run in the morning and/or afternoons and will
include basketball, volleyball, indoor soccer and others as interest demands. The
counselor to participant ratio will be maintained at 1: 1 0, with a Recreation Specialist in
charge of each camp. Training for camp staff, including the Recreation Specialists,
Leaders and Aides, will precede each camp. The counselor to participant ratio allows the
Department to adjust staffing to enrollment levels and ensures that offset of all direct
costs through registration fees is maintained for FY '09 by reducing personnel and
supplies and services expenditures accordingly if enrollments fall short of projected
levels. Revenue and expenditure figures provided are based on the conservative estimate
of 40 participants per session. Previous camps offered at Salt Creek have averaged 60
participants.
DECISION MAKER CONFLICT
Staff has reviewed the property holdings of the City Council Members and has found no
such holdings within 500' of the properties which are the subject of this action.
FISCAL IMPACT
Participant registration fees 'will completely offset the total direct costs of the Sports
Camp Program during FY 2008/2009 and FY 2009/2010 combined. For FY 2008/2009,
$19,293 will be appropriated from available fund balance in the General Fund to the
Recreation Department budget for the Sports Camps Program and $36,000 in
unanticipated revenue derived from registration fees charged to participants in the Sports
Camps Program will be budgeted. The disparity in net impact to the General Fund for
the two fiscal years is due to the fact that the majority of registration revenue for the
camps occurring during July ofFY '10 will actually be received and credited during June
of FY '09, while the majority of expenditures, particularly for personnel, for these same
camps will be incurred during July ofFY '10.
