12E. Response to Council-Initiated Item 12A: AB 747 Evacuation Technology, Impact Analysis, and Related Objective Standards. Environmental Considerations: The action being considered by the City Council is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because it is not a "project" under Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines because it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment. The action is also exempt from CEQA under Section 15378(b)(5) of the CEQA Guidelines because it involves an organizational or administrative activity of government that will not result in direct or indirect physical change in the environment. Contact Person: Fire Chief Gordon Recommended Action: 1) Receive the AB 747 Council Summary Crosswalk; and 2) Provide direction to staff to develop a scoped work plan and preliminary cost estimate for an Evacuation Master Plan along with any other recommendations for next steps and use of programs and technology. 2026-08-26 Item 12E AB 747 Evacuation Technology, Impact Analysis, and Related Objective Standards
