14. Consideration of the Burbank-Glendale-Pasadena Regional Housing Trust Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement and Appointment of a City Council Member to the Board of Directors - Community Development Department Recommendation: Approve the Burbank-Glendale-Pasadena Regional Housing Trust Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement (JPA) and Appoint a City Council Member to serve on the Board of Directors for a two-year term. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: The recommended actions to approve the Burbank-Glendale-Pasadena Regional Housing Trust Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement (JPA) and appoint a Burbank-Glendale-Pasadena Regional Housing Trust (BGPRHT) Board member do not have the potential to cause a significant effect on the environment and has been determined to be categorically exempt from environmental review pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), State CEQA Guidelines Section 15320 (changes in organization of local agencies). This exemption applies whenever local governmental agencies are organizing and this organization does not change the geographical area in which previously existing powers are exercised, and include as an example, the creation of a subsidiary organization or consolidation of organizations having identical powers. The JPA envisioned falls under both of the exemption examples.
