STATUS REPORT ON JACUMBA VALLEY RANCH SPECIFIC PLAN (SP 91-03) AND MAJOR USE PERMIT (P91-012RPL), MOUNTAIN EMPIRE SUBREGIONAL PLAN AREA (DISTRICT: 2)
 

On February 14, 2001 (1), the Board of Supervisors continued the hearing on the Jacumba Valley Ranch Specific Plan and Major Use Permit for a Water Reclamation Plant.  The purpose for the continuance was to allow the Chief Administrative Officer to report on the applicant’s progress in revising the project and the project’s environmental documentation in response to the direction provided by the Board at the June 21, 2000 (1) hearing to consider the project. 

The Board directed the applicant to make revisions to the project design by changing the locations of the hotel and wastewater reclamation facility to accommodate expanded equestrian facilities.  In addition, the Board directed that the area designated as future planning area be placed into open space.  At the February 14, 2001 (1) hearing, the applicant requested the Board reconsider its action of June 21, 2000 (1) with respect to several aspects of the land use plan.  The Board concurred with the applicant on several items, agreeing to maintain the previously planned locations of the hotel and the wastewater reclamation plant and expanding the equestrian component to a different location.  The Board also reconfirmed its position that the future planning area be maintained as open space.

The applicant has submitted documentation to the Department of Planning and Land Use summarizing changes to the project description.  However, no information was provided with respect to the changes that will be necessary to the project’s environmental documentation to support the revised project as directed at the Board’s February 14, 2001 (1) meeting.  Staff has reviewed the applicant’s revisions to the Specific Plan and agrees it complies with the Board’s direction of February 14, 2000 (1) except for implementation of the dedicated open space easements and expansion of the equestrian component of the Specific Plan.  These are discussed further in the background section of this report.
 

N/A
 

CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER

1.      Direct the applicant for the Jacumba Valley Ranch Specific Plan and Major Use Permit to submit to the Department of Planning and Land within 60 days the additional environmental analysis and documentation, specifically including the analysis of potential impacts to cultural resources, for the expanded equestrian facilities and other changes to the Specific Plan in accordance with the direction provided by the Board at the June 21, 2000 and February 14, 2001 hearings.

2.      Direct the applicant to revise the Specific Plan to:

a.  Specify that former future planning areas to be designated as open space be dedicated in open space easements as a condition of approval of the first implementing  discretionary permit.

b.  Delete the provision for approving the planned location of the expanded equestrian  facilities to the filing of a subsequent Specific Plan Amendment and Major Use Permit.

3.     Continue the hearing on the Jacumba Valley Ranch Specific Plan and Major Use Permit to September 12, 2001, in order to receive a status report from the Chief Administrative Officer which would describe the applicant’s progress in revising the project and providing the appropriate environmental documentation.  Should it be determined that adequate progress has not been made at that time, the Chief Administrative Officer will recommend denial of the project for lack of progress.
 

ON MOTION of Supervisor Jacob, seconded by Supervisor Slater, the Board of Supervisors took action as recommended, continuing this hearing to September 12, 2001, 9:00 a.m., on Consent.

UTILITY UNDERGROUNDING FOR LOS COCHES ROAD, RIVERSIDE DRIVE, RANCHO SANTA FE ROAD, SOUTH SANTA FE AVENUE, AND SAN PASQUAL ACADEMY IN THE LAKESIDE, SAN MARCOS, AND ESCONDIDO AREAS (DISTRICT: 2 AND 5)

(CARRYOVER FROM 04/25/2001, AGENDA NO. 14)
 

On April 25, 2001 (14), the Board of Supervisors adopted the following Resolutions:   Resolution of Intention to Form Underground Utility District No. 88, Los Coches Road – Phase II; Resolution of Intention to Form Underground Utility District No. 89, Riverside Drive; Resolution of Intention to Form Underground Utility District No. 90, Rancho Santa Fe Road – Phase II; and Resolution of Intention to Form Underground Utility District No. 91, San Pasqual Academy.

The purpose of the Underground Utility District program is to improve the appearance of communities by undergrounding overhead utilities in areas of benefit to the general public.  Board Policy J-17, Undergrounding of Existing Overhead Utility Facilities establishes a policy and procedure for district formation and program administration.  These projects propose to underground utility lines along portions of Los Coches Road, Riverside Drive, Rancho Santa Fe Road, and within the San Pasqual Academy in the communities of Lakeside, San Marcos, and Escondido.

Establishing an Underground Utility District is a two-step process.  The first step is to adopt a resolution of intention to set a date for the public hearing.  The second step is to adopt an ordinance to form the district at the close of the public hearing.
 

Utility companies underground overhead facilities at their own expense.  Funds for formation and administration of these districts are budgeted in Department of Public Works General Fund.  If approved, this request will result in a $6,000 current year cost, a $6,000 subsequent year cost, and will require no additional staff years.
 

CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER

1.     Find, in accordance with Section 15301(b) of California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, that this action is exempt because it represents replacement of existing facilities.

2.     At the close of the Los Coches Road hearing, adopt AN ORDINANCE ADDING SECTION 89.289 TO THE SAN DIEGO COUNTY CODE OF REGULATORY ORDINANCES TO FORM AN UNDERGROUND UTILITY DISTRICT FOR LOS COCHES ROAD, PHASE II, UNDERGROUND UTILITY DISTRICT NO. 88.

3.     At the close of the Riverside Drive hearing, adopt AN ORDINANCE ADDING SECTION 89.290 TO THE SAN DIEGO COUNTY CODE OF REGULATORY ORDINANCES TO FORM AN UNDERGROUND UTILITY DISTRICT FOR RIVERSIDE DRIVE, UNDERGROUND UTILITY DISTRICT NO. 89.

4.     At the close of the Rancho Santa Fe Road hearing, adopt AN ORDINANCE ADDING SECTION 89.291 TO THE SAN DIEGO COUNTY CODE OF REGULATORY ORDINANCES TO FORM AN UNDERGROUND UTILITY DISTRICT FOR RANCHO SANTA FE ROAD, PHASE II, UNDERGROUND UTILITY DISTRICT NO. 90.

ON MOTION of Supervisor Cox,  seconded by Supervisor Slater, the Board of Supervisors closed the hearing and took action as recommended, on Consent, adopting the following Ordinances:

No. 9339 (N.S.) entitled:   AN ORDINANCE ADDING SECTION 89.289 TO THE SAN DIEGO COUNTY CODE  OF REGULATORY ORDINANCES TO FORM AN UNDERGROUND UTILITY DISTRICT FOR LOS COCHES ROAD, PHASE II, UNDERGROUND UTILITY DISTRICT NO. 88;

HEARING REGARDING O’MALLEY NOISE EASEMENT VACATION, VAC 00-014, VALLE DE ORO COMMUNITY PLAN AREA (DISTRICT:  2)
 

On April 25, 2001 (7), the Board of Supervisors set a hearing date on this item.  This is a request to vacate an open space easement for the purposes of noise mitigation.  The open space easement was required as condition of approval of Tentative Map 4205 for a 14 lot residential subdivision.  The map was never recorded and subsequently expired.  The open space easement was recorded on February 16, 1984, before the map expired with the intent of protecting future residential property owners from noise impacts by requiring a Site Plan Review for those lots closest to the abutting public street.  Language within the open space noise easement precludes any use of the property within the open space noise easement boundary.  The applicant intends on using the site for the storage of nursery stock, a use that is allowed by right on the property. 
 

The proposal will not have an adverse fiscal impact.
 

DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING AND LAND USE:

1.      Adopt the attached Resolution of Vacation (Attachment B).

2.      Direct the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors to record this Resolution.

SUBJECT:

FOOT AND MOUTH DISEASE (DISTRICT: ALL)
 

An outbreak of the highly contagious foreign animal disease, Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD) was detected on a British farm on February 21, 2001.  The outbreak quickly spread to other farms in England and jumped into the neighboring countries of France, the Netherlands and Belgium.  On February 23, 2001, The United Nations Animal Health, Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), warned that Foot and Mouth disease had grown into a global crisis.  The same day, U.S. Department of Agriculture banned importation of swine and ruminants, as well as fresh, chilled, or frozen meat products from the United Kingdom, and later extended the ban to include other infected European countries.  These preventative measures were part of a coordinated program to prevent the disease from spreading into the United States. 

FMD has the ability to spread rapidly, and because it has serious economic as well as clinical consequences, FMD is widely believed to be the most economically devastating livestock disease in the world.  If FMD were introduced into the United States, which is FMD-free, it could cause billions of dollars in losses to the U.S. economy.  An outbreak costs a country millions of dollars to fight, and thousands of animals can be lost.  Additionally, livestock markets must be closed to prevent the spread of infection, dairies will not be able to operate, and transportation of livestock must cease.  Furthermore, there is the cost of depopulating and disposing of affected or exposed animals and vaccinating clean animals to create a disease-free buffer zone.  The disease is currently affecting four of the world’s seven continents: Asia, Africa, South America, and Europe, leaving only North America, Australia, and Antarctica free of the disease.  Although the disease is not a risk to humans, people who have worked around or been near infected animals can carry and spread the virus via their cars, clothing, shoes, and even through their respiratory tracts.

California is the nation’s top agricultural producer.  San Diego County alone accounts for 29,000 head of cattle and calves and 640 head of lamb and sheep at a value of  $15,508,540.  The value of milk reported in San Diego County for 2000 was $16,920,837.

An unprecedented 50.9 million international travelers visited the United States in 2000, exceeding last year’s record by five percent.  In 1999, foreign travelers spent $8 million dollars on tourism in San Diego County and $24.9 million in the state of California.   An FMD outbreak in San Diego County would not only kill animals and wildlife, but would also severely hurt the restaurant business, markets, tourism and other key sectors of the economy.

Currently, the Department of Agriculture, Weights and Measures has developed a Foreign Animal Disease Working Group.  The purpose of the group is to coordinate and share ongoing information with county departments that may be impacted if FMD is discovered in San Diego County.
 

This request has no fiscal impact, and will not require the addition of any staff years.  The request will also be handled by the current and next year’s budget.
 

CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER:

1.      Support activities of federal, state, and local agencies, as well as private organizations and entities to prepare for, prevent, respond to, and recover from an outbreak of FMD.

2.      Support legislation to make funding available for both emergency response and indemnity in the event of an outbreak.

3.      Support the office of the County Veterinarian of the Department of Agriculture, Weights and Measures in its efforts to heighten awareness and monitor the FMD situation in San Diego to ensure protection of the County’s $33 million livestock, wildlife, and livestock product industry.

4.      Direct the Chief Administrative Officer to provide a regular status report to the Board of Supervisors.
 

The Chairman continued this matter to June 13, 2001.

There is no fiscal impact associated with this status report.
 

CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER:

1.   Authorize the Director to proceed with the completion of the three land use distribution concepts; create a new land use distribution alternative; test the new alternative; refine the new alternative; and return to the Board of Supervisors for review.

2.   Consider motion from Steering Committee requesting the Board to require financial disclosure forms to be filed by the Interest Group.
 

ON MOTION of Supervisor Horn, seconded by Supervisor Roberts, the Board of Supervisors; directed the Interest Group to evaluate the feasibility of using the existing General Plan and to incorporate concepts A, B, C and D as drafted as soon as possible; return to the Board within 90 days with a report on that decision and any suggestions that they have detailing out implementation plans; authorized continued work by the Interest Group for up to 90 days and determined that financial disclosures are not required; directed Chief Administrative Officer to obtain information from the various Planning and Sponsor groups that have minor changes to the General Plan that they are recommending and to bring those forward so they can be dealt with, so the focus can be on areas needing more attention (such as Ramona and Alpine in District 2); directed the Chief Administrative Officer to appoint a representative from the San Diego Association of Realtors and a representative of an Environmental Group to the Interest Group.

APPROVAL OF AMENDED TRANSNET PROGRAM AND COUNTY OF SAN DIEGO ELEMENT OF THE REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM  (DISTRICT: 2,3 AND 5)
 

On April 12, 2000 (3), the Board of Supervisors approved a TransNet Local Street and Road Program of Projects for road and bridge projects funded using TransNet, State, or federal monies.  On July 21, 2000, the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) included this local program in the adopted Regional Transportation Improvement Program (RTIP). SANDAG (acting as duly authorized Regional Transportation Commission), submitted the RTIP to the California Transportation Commission for inclusion in the State Transportation Program.  SANDAG is currently preparing to amend the RTIP to reflect needed programming revisions to FY 2001 and FY 2002 projects.

This is a request to amend the County TransNet Program of Projects to allocate available funds to three new transportation projects, delete one project, and adjust project schedules and budgets of several current projects.  The County TransNet Program, along with road and bridge projects receiving federal and State funds, will be integrated into the County element of RTIP for FY 2000-02 through FY 2003-04 and submitted to SANDAG.
 

There will be no fiscal impact as a result of adoption of this amendment.  Transportation projects, along with offsetting revenues, will be presented in appropriate fiscal years in proposed Department of Public Works operational plans.  There is no County General Fund cost associated with any projects in RTIP, and no additional staff years required.
 

CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER

1.      Find the following actions are not subject to California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) guidelines, pursuant to Section 15276, because CEQA does not apply to development or adoption of RTIP.

2.      Adopt a resolution entitled Resolution of the County of San Diego Amending the TransNet Local Street and Road Program of Projects for Fiscal Years 2000-01 through 2007-08, and Certifying Provisions of the TransNet Ordinance will be met.

3.       Direct that projects in the amended TransNet Local Street and Road Program of Projects be integrated into the County element of the Regional Transportation Improvement Program for FY 2000-01 through FY 2003-04 and authorize the Director, Department of Public Works, to submit the County’s amended RTIP to SANDAG.
 

ON MOTION of Supervisor Cox, seconded by Supervisor Slater, the Board of Supervisors took action as recommended, on Consent, adopting Resolution No. 01-152, entitled:  RESOLUTION OF THE COUNTY OF SAN DIEGO AMENDING THE TRANSNET LOCAL STREET & ROAD PROGRAM OF PROJECTS FOR FISCAL YEARS 2000-01 THROUGH 2007-08 AND CERTIFYING PROVISIONS OF THE TRANSNET ORDINANCE WIL BE MET; authorized the Chairman to draft a letter to SANDAG seeking the completion of the widening of Highway 76 all the way to Highway 15 and placement of this project on the SANDAG Regional Transportation Improvement Program (RTIP), exchanging permits to widen Highway 76.

APPLICATION FOR AND ACCEPTANCE OF STATE FUNDING FOR BEVERAGE CONTAINER RECYCLING AND LITTER REDUCTION (DISTRICT: ALL)
 

On May 16, 2000 (2), the Board authorized the application for and acceptance of the first of new California Department Of Conservation (DOC) funding awards. Legislation providing guidelines for these awards referred to as “bottle bills," took effect January 1, 2000. The County of San Diego was awarded $135,435 to increase recycling in unincorporated areas of San Diego County.

This is a request for Board authorization to apply annually for funding from the DOC pursuant to Section 14581(a)(4)(A) of the California Beverage Container Recycling and Litter Reduction Act, and accept funds, if awarded. Annual amounts are approximately $135,000, and will be used for beverage container recycling, recycling public education, and litter reduction activities throughout unincorporated San Diego County.

This is also a request to authorize the Director, Department of Purchasing and Contracting, to issue Requests for Proposals and negotiate terms for contracts to complete projects included in the beverage container recycling plans proposed annually to the DOC for funding.
 

If approved, this action will result in no current year cost or revenue, and $134,968 in cost and corresponding revenue for FY 01-02.  No matching funds are required.  It is anticipated this funding will continue at approximately the same level in subsequent fiscal years.  This action will require no additional staff years.

AMENDMENT TO SUPPLEMENTAL CONTRACT WITH U.S. FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE: RANCHO SAN DIEGO EQUESTRIAN CENTER (DISTRICT 2)
 

On April 16, 1996 (38), the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the County of San Diego entered into an agreement for relocation of an equestrian center in Rancho San Diego.  The Fish and Wildlife Service was required to perform specified grading and drainage improvements and then convey the parcel to the County of San Diego for leasing to an equestrian center operator.

A supplemental contract to the amendment was signed on March 10, 2000, stipulating several grading standards and improvements to be made by Fish and Wildlife at no cost to the County. Caltrans has since constructed a pedestrian walkway on its border with the equestrian center where two open ditches listed in the supplemental contract would cross it.

This is a request to approve amendment requiring U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to provide pipe culverts instead of ditches to assure trail consistency and enhance safety.
 

If approved, this request will result in no current year cost, no annual cost, and will require the addition of no staff years
 

CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER

SUMMARY VACATION OF BROOKHILLS ROAD ACCESS RESTRICTION EASEMENT, VAC 00-015, FALLBROOK COMMUNITY PLAN (DISTRICT:  5)
 

This is a request to adopt a Resolution of Summary Vacation to vacate a 1-foot wide access restriction easement (74-foot long portion) along Brookhills Road on Lot 49.  Lot 49 is bounded by Wendi Court to the northwest and Brookhills Road to the southeast (see Attachment H).  The applicant proposes to relinquish access at the rear of the property to restrict access from Wendi Court.  This ensures that only one entrance will exist to Lot 49, which will be consistent with the 75 lots within the Brookhills Subdivision.  By moving the access point to the Brookhills Road side of Lot 49, a massive import of fill to raise the pad 25 feet or to grade a 300-foot driveway into the slope bank can be avoided.  Both alternatives to access the site from Wendi Court are not within the desired neighborhood character of the subdivision.
 

The proposal will not have an adverse fiscal impact.
 

DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING AND LAND USE:

1.     Adopt the attached Resolution of Summary Vacation (Attachment E).

2.     Accept the attached Relinquishment of Access Rights (Attachment F).

3.     Direct the Clerk of the Board to record this Resolution and this Relinquishment of Access Rights.
 

ON MOTION of Supervisor Cox, seconded by Supervisor Slater, the Board of Supervisors took action as recommended, on Consent, adopting Resolution No. 01-154, entitled:  RESOLUTION OF SUMMARY VACATION OF STREET, HIGHWAY, OR PUBLIC SERVICE EASEMENT.

MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING WITH THE CITY OF OCEANSIDE AND NORTH SAN DIEGO COUNTY TRANSIT DEVELOPMENT BOARD FOR OCEANSIDE TRANSIT CENTER PARKING STRUCTURE FUNDING (DISTRICT: 5)
 

On October 25, 2000 (10), Board authorized an amendment to Program Supplement No. 085, reallocating $1,261,000 of Federal Aid Urban funding from Right-of-way to Construction for a parking structure to be constructed at Oceanside Transit Center.  Since that time, Caltrans has determined an Amendment is not necessary. Instead, Caltrans supports closing Program Supplement No. 085 and reallocating remaining project funds to North San Diego County Transit Development Board to complete the parking structure.

Accordingly, North San Diego County Transit Development Board, City of Oceanside (and its Community Development Commission), and the County have negotiated a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) describing responsibilities of each agency in completing the parking structure. The MOU was approved by North San Diego County Transit Development Board and City of Oceanside Community Development Commission on February 15, 2001, and February 14, 2001, respectively.

Requested actions today are execution of Memorandum of Understanding and authorization to request Caltrans reallocate remaining funds to North San Diego County Transit Development Board for construction of parking structure. County will have no further responsibility for design, maintenance, or operation of parking structure. These actions will ensure funding is in place so project can proceed.
 

Funds for this proposal are not budgeted.  Funding source for reallocation is Program Supplement No. 085 to County-State Agreement No. 11-5957, providing $1,261,000 of Federal Aid Urban funding for expansion of Oceanside Transit Center. If approved, this request to approve Oceanside Transit Center Parking Structure Memorandum of Understanding and close Program Supplement No. 085 will result in no current year cost, no annual cost, and require no additional staff years.
 

1.    Find approval of Oceanside Transit Center Parking Structure Memorandum of Understanding is not subject to California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), because it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility this activity may have a significant effect on the environment.

2.    Authorize the Clerk of Board to execute three originals, upon receipt, of the Oceanside Transit Center Parking Structure Memorandum of Understanding. (4 VOTES)

3.    Authorize the Director, Department of Public Works to submit a request to Caltrans to close Project No. M-S160 (002); E.A. No. 11-955361; CRP-L089 (218); Program Supplement No. 085; Local Agency-State Agreement No. 11-5957, and request all remaining funds be transferred to Oceanside Transit Center Parking Structure construction.

ADVERTISE AND AWARD SLURRY SEALING ON VARIOUS COUNTY ROADS (DISTRICT: ALL)
 

The County maintains approximately 1,900 miles of roads in unincorporated areas, serving approximately 400,000 vehicles daily. Slurry seals are a protective measure appropriate for roadways with adequate structural strength to support the weight of traffic. They protect roadways from moisture and heat, prevent deterioration, and cost much less than asphalt overlays, which are needed when roads are badly deteriorated. The Department of Public Works contracts slurry seals for County roads on an annual basis.

This is a request for approval of advertisement and subsequent award, to the lowest responsible bidder, of a contract to apply slurry seals on various County roads throughout unincorporated San Diego County. The contractor will apply approximately 101 miles of slurry seal.
 

This request is budgeted in the Department of Public Works Detailed Work Program. Funding source is Gas Tax. If approved, this project will result in current year cost of  $2,125,000, no annual cost and will require no additional staff years. This project will have no impact on the General Fund.
 

CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER

1.    Find, in accordance with Section 15301 of California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, this project is categorically exempt from provisions of CEQA because it consists of maintenance of existing facilities with no increase in capacity.

2.    Authorize the Director, Department of Purchasing and Contracting, to take any action authorized by Section 403 of the Administrative Code with respect to contracting for public works projects.

3.     Designate the Director, Department of Public Works, as County Officer responsible for administering the contract.

FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION AND STATE AERONAUTICS PROGRAM FUNDING FOR BORREGO VALLEY AIRPORT, FALLBROOK COMMUNITY AIRPARK AND RAMONA AIRPORT (DISTRICT 2, 5)
 

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has requested applications under the Federal Fiscal Year 2001 Airport Improvement Program (AIP), including a new category of entitlement funds for non-primary airports. Two County airports, Borrego Valley and Ramona, are eligible for funding under this program.  Borrego Valley Airport is in need of new airfield signage, estimated at $500,000 and Ramona Airport will request funds for site preparation related to a planned new ramp and terminal  building estimated at $166,667.

This new entitlement program was created by the Wendell H. Ford Aviation Investment and Reform Act for the 21^st Century (AIR-21).  AIR-21 is a three-year bill authorizing increasing federal aviation investment by $10 billion over current levels. Its passage has prompted FAA to encourage submittal of applications in anticipation of positioning County Airports to aggressively pursue and accept a greater number of grants. Non-primary airports with less than 10,000 boarding passengers per year are now entitled to receive $150,000 annually for projects within the Airport Improvement Program.  Prior to AIR-21, smaller airports had to rely on discretionary funds for capital improvement projects.

County Airports is also seeking Board approval to apply for and accept $6,050 in California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) Aeronautics Program matching funds for Fallbrook Community Airpark Master Plan preparation. 

In addition Ramona Airport is seeking AIP funding in the amount of  $550,000 for acquisition of 35 acres contiguous to the airport at its southeasterly boundary to restore and preserve vernal pools providing habitat for the federally endangered San Diego Ferry Shrimp as mitigation for planned Airport improvements.      

These projects will be proposed in the FY 2001-02 and FY 2002-03 Airport Enterprise Fund Operational Plan. Funding sources are Federal Aviation Administration Airport Improvement Program ($1,095,000), California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) Aeronautics Program ($60,800), and Airport Enterprise Fund (AEF) ($66,917).  Application for grant funding will result in no current year cost, potential costs and revenues of $1,222,717 in subsequent years, and will require no additional staff years.
 

CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER

1.   Find, in accordance with Section 15061(b)(3) of California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, the following action is exempt from provisions of CEQA because it can be seen with certainty there is no possibility this activity may have a significant effect on the environment.

2.   Adopt a Resolution entitled Resolution of the Board of Supervisors Authorizing Applications and Agreements for Federal and State Funding at Borrego Valley Airport, Fallbrook Community Airpark and Ramona Airport. The Resolution will also authorize Director, Department of Public Works, or his designee to execute all necessary applications, contracts, payment requests, agreements and amendments for the purpose of securing these grant funds.
 

ON MOTION of Supervisor Slater, seconded by Supervisor Jacob, the Board of Supervisors took action as recommended, adopting Resolution No. 01-156, entitled:  RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS AUTHORIZING APPLICATIONS AND AGREEMENTS FOR FEDERAL AND STATE FUNDING AT BORREGO VALLEY AIRPORT,  FALLBROOK COMMUNITY AIRPARK AND RAMONA AIRPORT
