DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND The proposed sidewalk improvements on Katella Avenue were warranted as terms of the lease of City property at 1800 W. Katella Avenue as approved by City Council in November 2016 Agenda Item 3.7 to SC Fuels. The lease will allow SC Fuels to increase their parking spaces and allow them to accommodate current employees and future growth. Under the terms of the proposed lease, SC Fuels would fund sidewalk improvements to the frontage along Katella Avenue so that their employees could safely access the new employee parking lot. Public Works has prepared plans and specifications to construct the required improvements in order to satisfy the terms of the lease. The proposed sidewalk improvements are categorically exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under CEQA Guidelines Section 15301(c), Existing Facilities, covering existing highways and streets, sidewalks, gutters, bicycle and pedestrian trails, and similar facilities (this includes road grading for the purpose of public safety). This project is exempt because it will provide an accessible path of travel for the purpose of public safety these improvements will not substantially increase existing street capacity. The Notice of Exemption will be filed with the County Recorder's Office. Construction is scheduled to begin in fall 2017 and is expected to be completed within 45 calendar days. 8.
