A FY 2018-19 year-end budget amendment for the $235,524 will be submitted for City Council <br />approval in June. <br />ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW <br />The entire Magical Bridge Playground Project is categorically exempt from the requirements of the <br />California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) per Sections 15302 (Replacement or Reconstruction), 15304 <br />(Minor Alterations of Land), and 15311 (Accessory Structures) of the CEQA guidelines because it consists <br />of the replacement and reconstruction of existing facilities along with minor alterations to the park land <br />and the construction of new accessory park structures. Approval of Amendment No. 3 is not a project <br />under California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as defined in CEQA Guidelines, section 15378, because <br />it has no potential for resulting in either a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the <br />environment. <br />PUBLIC NOTICE <br />Public Notification was achieved by posting the agenda, with the agenda items being listed, at least 72 <br />hours prior to the meeting. <br />ALTERNATIVES <br />The City Council may direct staff to separately bid for construction support services. <br />ATTACHMENTS <br />Attachment A: Amendment No. 3 to Agreement <br />REPORT PREPARED BY: <br />Chris Beth, Parks and Recreation Director <br />cbeth@redwoodcity.org <br />(650) 780-7253 <br />APPROVED BY: <br />Melissa Stevenson Diaz, City Manager <br />City of Redwood City 1017 Middlefield Road, Redwood City, CA. 94063 Tel: 650-780-7000 www.redwoodcity.ore <br />26 <br />
