b) Accept the Santa Barbara County FY 2024-2026 Public Safety Realignment Plan developed by the Community Corrections Partnership (CCP) and approved by the Executive Committee of the CCP;
c) Find that the proposed actions do not constitute a “Project” within the meaning of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines pursuant to Section 15378(b)(5), in that they are government administrative activities that will not result in direct or indirect changes to the environment; and
d) Determine that the acceptance of the FYs 2024-2026 Public Safety Realignment Plan is exempt from the CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), finding that the activities are covered by the common sense exception that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment, and where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activities in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activities are not subject to CEQA.
