These receptacles will provide additional storage areas for litter and trash to provide a cleaner and more enjoyable experience for patrons at Rohr Park. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW This proposed activity has been reviewed for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and it has been determined that the activity is not a "Project" as defined under Section 15378 of the State CEQA Guidelines because it will not result in a physical change in 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. BOARDS/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION Not applicable. DISCUSSION Rohr Park is one of the oldest, largest and frequently used parks in Chula Vista. The park is approximately 63 acres that consists of four ball fields and has over 70 picnic tables. Special events, such as Dog shows, Horse shows and Soccer tournaments are also scheduled at this pazk 6-1 8/9/11, Item Page 2 of 2 throughout the year. Rohr Park is also home to the Chula Vista Live Steamers Association that provides train rides to the public. Due to the size and frequent use of Rohr Park, having additional trash containers throughout the park is essential to keeping the park clean. Purchasing additional trash receptacles will also allow the City to replace some of the older galvanized trash cans with cement trash receptacles, which are now the standard for new parks. This donation by Goodrich will allow the City to purchase 15 additional cement trash receptacles, which will enhance the overall park experience for the patrons at Rohr Park. 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 FISCAL YEAR IMPACT Approval of this resolution will result in an appropriation of $12,000 to the supplies and services category of the FY2011/2012 Public Works Budget. The funds received from Goodrich Aerostntctures will offset this cost, resulting in no net impact to the General Fund. ONGOING FISCAL IMPACT There is no ongoing fiscal impact from accepting these funds. ATTACHMENTS None.
