related actions pursuant to California Health & Safety Code Sections 34177(l), 34177(m) and 34180(g). Recommendation:
A. Find that adoption of the proposed resolution for approval of the Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule for 2016-2017 (July 1, 2016 through June 30, 2017)
is exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), because it is
a government fiscal activity that will not result in any change to the environment
and therefore is not a “project” as defined by CEQA Guidelines section 15378.
Even assuming the activity were a “project,” it would be exempt from CEQA review in accordance with CEQA Guidelines section 15061(b)(3), the general rule
that CEQA only applies to projects that may have an effect on the environment;
and
B. Successor Agency staff recommends the Successor Agency adopt a resolution to approve the annual 2016-2017 recognized obligation payment schedule (“ROPS”)
in substantially the same form as presented.
