9.A. - Page 2 <br /> ANALYSIS <br /> GENERAL PLAN COMPLIANCE <br /> This designation implements the Goals and Policies of the Historic Resources section of <br /> the 2010 General Plan by reinforcing the City's dedication to preserving historic and <br /> cultural resources and educating the public on the benefits of historic preservation. <br /> Further, this designation will fulfill the following General Plan program: <br /> Program BE-123: Preserve America. Consider pursuing Redwood City's <br /> designation as a Preserve America Community to assist with the City's heritage <br /> tourism and wayfinding efforts and potential project funding. <br /> As noted in the background section, the Preserve America application does not create <br /> new policy. It generally recognizes the City's ongoing and adopted historical <br /> preservation policies, and puts the City in a better positon to obtain grants to support <br /> those policies. <br /> ALTERNATIVES <br /> Direct staff not to apply for the designation. <br /> FISCAL IMPACT <br /> None <br /> ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW <br /> The designation of "Preserve America Community" does not constitute a "project" under <br /> the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The designation will not result in a <br /> direct physical change in the environment or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical <br /> change in the environment. <br /> KAREN VAUGHN <br /> PRINCIPAL PLANNER <br /> AARON AKNIN <br /> COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR <br /> FOR ROBERT B.
