7.1.B. - Page 2 <br /> Redwood City's proximity to the Bay provides great benefit to our community. Wetlands <br /> — with their role in providing clean water, flood control, wildlife habitat and recreational <br /> opportunities — are crucial to the health of the residents and businesses of Redwood <br /> City, along with the millions who live and work in the communities that surround the San <br /> Francisco Bay. It is recommended that the City Council approve a letter in support of AB <br /> 746 (see attached) in order to better enable SFBRA to achieve its mission of restoring, <br /> enhancing and protecting the wetlands in the Bay and along its shoreline. <br /> ALTERNATIVES <br /> Council could elect to not take a position on, or to oppose, AB 746. <br /> FISCAL IMPACT <br /> There is no direct fiscal impact associated with the City taking a position on AB 746. <br /> ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW <br /> This activity is not a "project" under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as <br /> defined in CEQA Guidelines, section 15378, because Redwood City's support by <br /> sending a letter is an administrative activity and therefore will not result in either a direct <br /> or foreseeable physical change in the environment. <br /> AUDREY SEYMOUR RAMBERG <br /> ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER <br /> ik_"m'ert/ <br /> FOR ROBERT B.
