Title
HEARING - Consider recommendations regarding an increase to the Fiscal Year 2012/2013 Library Special Tax Rate for County Service Area No. 3 in the Goleta area, Second District, as follows: (EST. TIME: 20 MIN.)
a) Adopt a Resolution that confirms the written report that contains a description of each parcel of real property receiving the extended library facilities and services in County Service Area (CSA) No. 3 in the Goleta area, and the amount of the special tax for each parcel for Fiscal Year 2012/2013, and that increases the Fiscal Year 2012/2013 library special tax rate in CSA No. 3 by 2.7%, which reflects the percentage change in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for 2011;
b) Determine that the adoption of the Resolution that confirms the Report and increases the Fiscal Year 2012/2013 library special tax rate in CSA No.3 by 2.7% is not the approval of a project that is subject to environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378(b)(4), finding that the project is a creation of a governmental funding mechanism or other government fiscal activity, which does not involve any commitment to any specific project which may result in a potentially significant physical impact on the environment; and
c) Approve the filing of a Notice of Exemption.
COUNTY EXECUTIVE OFFICER'S RECOMMENDATION: APPROVE
