SUMMARY
At its meeting of November 3, 2009, the City Council requested that an official website be
designated in order to keep the public informed about the City's Centennial events and
promotions. Adoption of the resolution declazes an official website for the 2011 Centennial.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The Environmental Review Coordinator has reviewed the proposed activity, for
compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined
that there is no possibility that the activity may have a significant effect on the
environment because the activity is establishing a website only and will not result in a
physical change to environment; therefore, pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the State
CEQA Guidelines the activity is not subject to CEQA. Thus, no environmental review is
necessary.
RECOMMENDATION
Council adopt the resolution.
BOARDS/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
Not Applicable.

DISCUSSION
The City of Chula Vista will celebrate its 100"' anniversary in 2011. To support the
celebration efforts the City has established a "Committee of 100" to assist with the
planning of official events and promotions. The committee is currently being formed to
include many individuals who will be able to share their ideas to make this anniversary
memorable.
As part of this effort, a website will be established in order to keep residents aware of the
committee and plans/events for the Centennial celebration. The website is envisioned to
be h~://www.ChulaVistaCentennial.ort~, but may change to one of the official domain
names reserved by the City of Chula Vista as approved by the City Manager. While
many ideas and suggestions for this website will come from the "Committee of 100", the
final decision for posting content on the site will remain with the Council subcommittee
for the centennial celebration or its designee.
Since this site will be the official site for the planning efforts, the City will link its
website to the centennial website so the public can more easily find information.
DECISION MAKER CONFLICT
Staff has reviewed the decision contemplated by this action and has determined that it is
not site specific and consequently the 500 foot rule found in California Code of
Regulations section 18704.2(a)(1) is not applicable to this decision.
CURRENT YEAR FISCAL IMPACT
None.
ONGOING FISCAL IMPACT
None.
