City Council

11.A. Public Hearing Pursuant to Government Code Section 3502.3 Concerning Vacancies and Recruitment and Retention Efforts It is recommended that the City Council consider: 1. Conducting a public hearing to present the status of vacancies and recruitment and retention efforts in accordance with Government Code section 3502.3; and 2. Taking such additional, related, action that may be desirable. CEQA (California Environmental Quality Act): The California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) and the regulations promulgated thereunder (Cal. Code Regs., tit. 14, § 15000 et seq., the “CEQA Guidelines”) require environmental review of discretionary projects that may result in a significant effect on the environment. The proposed action is not a “project” subject to CEQA because it constitutes an organizational and administrative activity that will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment. (CEQA Guidelines, §§ 15060(c)(2), 15378(b)(5).) The City Council is receiving information and conducting a public hearing pursuant to Government Code § 3502.3 and is not approving or committing the City to any activity that may result in a physical change to the environment.
