<br />The City Council also recently approved the “Naming Rights” policy, which includes the <br />procedures for review and approval for “monuments”. The offer from the Native Sons of <br />the Golden West and the Sesquicentennial Committee complies with the City policy. <br /> <br />The City Council may choose to accept or not accept the donation of the monument <br />plaque. If the Council makes the decision to accept the offer, several locations for the <br />placement of the 150th plaque have been suggested by Committee members. These <br />include: <br /> <br /> <br />1. By the historic flagpole in front of City Hall. There are a number of <br />commemorative plaques and monuments in this area. <br /> <br />2. On the City Hall building itself (inside or outside) <br /> <br />3. Courthouse Square <br /> <br />4. On the Courthouse Building (County History Museum) <br /> <br />5. In front of the Downtown Library <br /> <br /> <br />These are only a few suggestions, and the Committee felt that it would be best for the <br />City Council to make the decision. <br /> <br />ALTERNATIVES <br />The City Council may decide that a dedication of a 150th plaque is not necessary; or to <br />leave it to the Committee to make the final decision; or to consider alternate options. <br /> <br />FISCAL IMPACT <br />There is no fiscal impact associated with the making of the plaque as the Native Sons of <br />the Golden West has offered to provide this. If a monument is required based on the <br />location and decision of the City Council, staff estimates that it would cost up to $1,000. <br />A total of $50,000 has been allocated to the Sesquicentennial Committee for the cost of <br />hosting events throughout 2017. <br /> <br />ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW <br />This activity is not a project under CEQA as defined in CEQA Guidelines, section <br />15378, because it has no potential for resulting in either a direct or foreseeable physical <br />change in the environment. <br /> <br /> <br />7.A. - Page 2
