10A. Update on Santa Fe Drive Corridor Improvements Projects, and request for
direction Environmental Considerations: The project was determined to be
exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to
Section 15301(c) of the CEQA Guidelines, which exempts projects
characterized as minor alterations to existing public facilities, involving
negligible or no expansion of the existing use. The types of existing facilities
include public streets where sidewalks, bicycle lanes, pedestrian crossings
other similar alterations are proposed but do not create additional automobile
lanes.. Contact Person: Principal Engineer Widelski
Recommended Action: 1) Receive update from Staff on Santa Fe Drive
Corridor Improvements West and East Projects; and 2) Consider deferring
construction of the Santa Fe Drive protected intersections at Nardo
Rd/MacKinnon Avenue and Bonita Drive/Windsor Road, and the mid-block
traffic signal from the Santa Fe West project and either: a) Include them as
additive alternative option for the Santa Fe East project; or b) Create a
separate new project for the deferred improvements to be constructed during
Summer 2025 or as directed by City Council.
