Section 2. The City Council has, as a result of its consideration and the evidence presented at the hearings on this matter, and in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") and the State CEQA Guidelines, determined that the proposed project has been adequately evaluated in the previously prepared Environmental Impact Report I Environmental Impact Statement EIR No.89-01. On the basis of this review, the City Council finds that there is no evidence from which it can be fairly argued that the Project will have a significant adverse effect on the environment. Pursuant to Title XIV, California Code of Regulations ("CCR") 9 735.5(c)(1), the City Council has determined that, after considering the record as a whole, there is no evidence that the proposed project will have the potential for any adverse effect on wildlife resources or the ecological habitat upon which wildlife resources depend. The proposed project exists in an urban environment characterized by paved concrete, roadways, surrounding buildings and human activity. Therefore, pursuant to Fish and Game Code 9711.2 and Title XIV, CCR 9 735.5(a)(3), the payment of Fish and Game Department filing fees is not required in conjunction with this project. Section 3.
