City Council
Agenda Item 2
11.2 Consideration of Proposed Ordinance No. 972 Amending Chapter 5.63 (Tenant
Eviction Protections) to Title 5 (business Licenses, Regulations and Taxes) of the
Bell Gardens Municipal Code
RECOMMENDATION: It is staff’s recommendation that the City Council:
1. Find that the proposed Ordinance No. 972 is categorically exempt from the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to California Code of
Regulations, Title 14, § 15061(b)(3) (CEQA Guidelines), concluding no
significant environmental impact would occur; and
2. Waive full reading and introduce Ordinance No. 972 amending Chapter 5.63
(Tenant Eviction Protections) to Title 5 (Business Licenses, Regulations and
Taxes) of the Bell Gardens Municipal Code to establish a minimum
threshold for evictions based on nonpayment of rent.
