RECOMMENDATIONS: a) Determine that the action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) and 15060(c)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines because it will not result in a physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly; and b) Approve Budget Amendment No. 17BA-023 to increase revenue estimates by $23,621 in account 01060005-431070 (California Literacy Campaign) and to increase expenditure estimates by the same amount in Division 01060604-711003 (Literacy Services). 93-9 Budget Amendment to Accept a Check in the Amount of $23,621 from the California State Library for Literacy Services (CLLS) and Appropriate Funds to the Library's Fiscal Year 2016/2017 Maintenance and Operation Budget February 14, 2017 Page 2 FUNDING REQUIREMENTS: The Budget Amendment records and appropriates $ 23,621.00 in additional revenues from an award from the California State Library and in increased expenditure appropriations.

The Library Literacy program has been offering one-on-one tutoring and small group classes to customers with low literacy skills for more than 25 years.

One of the goals of the program is to assist the participants in becoming more engaged citizens and active participants in their community. The Library Literacy program is partially funded by the California State Library Literacy Services annual grant program. These funds will be used towards staffing to ensure the continued high quality program that the community has come to expect. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: Staff recommends the City Council find this action is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment) and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, because it has no potential for resulting in physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly.
