follows:
1.RECITALS. The foregoing recitals are true and correct and are incorporated herein.
2.BID REJECTION. The City Council rejects all bids received for Traffic Way Bridge
revegetation (PW 2025-02).
3.CEQA FINDINGS. The City Council finds that the proposed action is exempt from the
California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines
sections 15060(c)(2) and 15061(b)(3) because it will not result in a direct or reasonably
foreseeable physical change in the environment; and the activity is covered by the general
rule that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant
effect on the environment. Rejecting these bids is not an authorization for any
development or construction. Thus, it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility
that this activity may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject
to CEQA.
