ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION: The proposed action is not a project as defined by 14 California Code of Regulations 15378 (State CEQA Guidelines) and therefore CEQA is not applicable.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
Agreement 7115-2 was entered into in August, 2008 so that the County and Pacific Union College could work together to complete a Master Plan Feasibility and Alternate Selection Study to determine the feasibility of the County potentially owning and/or operating the College Airport. Ultimately the County choose not to move forward with any purchase or operating plan for the airport. The agreement self-terminated in March 2010 per its terms and no renewal was made.
Today’s action authorizes the Chair to sign the Quitclaim Deed required for recordation as requested by Placer Title Company on behalf of Pacific Union College to provide for a “clear title” for the parcels.
