CEQA: In compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), an initial study and environmental impact report (SCH 2019011065) were prepared for the Olsen South Chandler Specific Plan (Vinedo) and were circulated between 10/17/2019 and 12/2/2019.  Staff recommends the City Council find that accepting Sherwood Road and Airport Road for public use does not require additional review under CEQA pursuant to Public Resources Code section 21166 and CEQA Guidelines section 15162 and 15182 (no subsequent or supplemental EIR is required, because no “substantial changes” to the project or to the circumstances under which the project was undertaken are proposed, and there are no “new significant environmental effects” or a “substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects” under the existing EIR).
Recommendation: Approve Resolution 25-XXX rescinding the prior rejection and formally accepting the right-of-way dedications for those public street segments shown on the Final Maps for Tracts 3152 and 3155, accepting the work on portions of Sherwood, Airport and Linne Roads, reducing the performance bond amounts, and granting the City Engineer the authority to administratively release the reduced bonds for performance, and the monumentation bond, once all checklist items are complete in amounts verified in consultation with the City Manager and City Attorney.
