The City has a remaining balance of $30,645.00 in the Aid -To -Cities
(ATC) fund account. These funds are granted by the County of Los
Angeles Public Works to be utilized on street improvement projects
that are within the County's Highway plan. Last year, the Community
Services and Water Department nominated "Soto Street" to be resurfaced
from 26th Street to Bandini Boulevard.
Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act, Section 15301,
maintenance to existing streets is exempt; therefore, per section
15062 of the same code, a Notice of Exemption will be prepared and
filed with the County Clerk.
The nomination has been approved by the County and it is hereby
recommended that a resolution be approved and adopted for the
allocation of the ATC funds to be utilized toward the costs of the
resurface of Soto Street.

The Community Services Department is recommending that its remaining balance of

We are required to pass a resolution by the City Council for the allocation of the fund for
the proposed project and forward it to the County for their execution. Also, it is recommended
that the City Council find that the project is categorically exempt from the California
