City Council

12A. A Council-initiated item from Council Member Marco San Antonio regarding\nFire Station 6 Environmental Considerations: The action being considered by\nthe City Council is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act\n(CEQA) because it is not a “project” under Section 15378(b)(5) of CEQA\nGuidelines. The action involves an organizational or administrative activity of\ngovernment that will not result in the direct or indirect physical change in the\nenvironment.\nRecommended Action: Direct Staff to report to the council on the cost and\nbenefits of increasing Station 6 (Olivenhain) personnel from 2 to 3 daily\nfirefighters. Staff should also consider opportunities to reduce costs by\nexploring creative cost-saving measures while maintaining acceptable hiring\npractices and operational integrity. Staff should also research ways to\nexpedite Station 6’s building timeline with the possibility of a Local Emergency\nResolution. This should be considered at the next city council meeting.\n2025-05-28 Item 12A Council Initiated Item by Marco San Antonio - Fire Station\n6
