NOW THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Lake Elsinore DOES
HEREBY RESOLVE as follows:
SECTION 1. The City Council has considered the proposed Mitigated Negative
Declaration prior to making a decision. Pursuant to Section 15063, of the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), it has been determined that:
1. Through development of the proposed project, the immediate natural
environmental will change from a naturai setting to a suburban one. This change
is not necessarily considered a substantial, nor significant degradation to the
environment. The project will not substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or
witdlife species, nor will it cause a population to drop below self-sustaining
levels. The project will not eliminate a plant or animal community, nor reduce the
num6er or range of a rare or endangered plant or animal. The site contains no
known historical resources.
2. The proposed project has individual impacts that can be mitigated to below the
level of significance. The projecYs contribution to cumulative noise impacts are
insignificant when considered in light of the contribution to traffic noise resulting
from projects within the vicinity. No considerable cumulative impacts will occur
as a result of the proposed proj ect.
3. Based upon current knowledge as to the nature of the proposed project, the Initial
Study does not identify any potential adverse effects on human beings.
SECTION 2. PURSUANT TO THE ABOVE FINDINGS, the City Council of
the City of Lake Elsinore DOES HEREBY RESOLVES that Mitigated Negative
Declaration No. 2004-06 and the Mitigation Monitoring Program thereto are complete
and adequate and provides appropriate envirorunental documentation for the project, and
fully complies with the requirements of CEQA, the State CEQA Guidelines, and the
City's environmental cleazance procedures ~
