Ayes: 7; Noes: 0 C. Matter of Adoption of a Supplemental Traffic Impact Fee and Related Administrative Regulations for the Implementation of the Fee Program for Developments Within a Zone of Benefit to Cover the Cost of Improvements to the Marina Boulevard/Interstate 880 (I-880) Interchange. This being the time and place for the Public Hearing on the above matter, City Manager Hollister introduced Senior Engineer Nick Thom. Mr. Thom gave a short PowerPoint presentation, reporting on the need for improvements to the I-880 Marina Boulevard Interchange, and providing details on the supplemental traffic impact fee proposed to fund the improvements. The Hearing was then opened to the public. Jeff Goldfarb, Preserve San Leandro Mobility and P.H. Holdings, addressed the City Council, objecting to the change in the justification for the CEQA exemption from the statutory exemption cited in the public hearing notice to a categorical exemption, and stating that the hearing should be re-noticed. Mr. Goldfarb commented that he believes the CEQA exemption is inappropriate, and that this improvement is necessary for the Kaiser project and is therefore "project splitting." Mr. Goldfarb provided a copy of a letter regarding "Kaiser Permanente San Leandro Medical Center/Mixed-Use Retail Development Project." He requested that the Council continue the matter, and provide an environmental review of the potential impacts of the Interchange project. There being no further comments from the public, and without objection, the Public Hearing was closed. • Resolution No. 2010-046, Resolution Adopting a Supplemental Traffic Impact Fee and Related Administrative Regulations for the Implementation of the Fee Program for Developments Within a Zone of Benefit to Cover the Cost of Improvements to the Marina Boulevard/Interstate 880 (I-880) Interchange (makes the findings described in the Traffic Fee Report, adopts the proposed supplemental impact fee, and authorizes the City Manager to adopt administrative regulations for the implementation of the fee program).
