effects which may otherwise be associated with existing conditions within the
Project Area or such development which may occur within the Project Area
without redevelopment assistance. As a result of the foregoing, the City
Council hereby determines that the implementation of the Redevelopment Plan
will not have a significant effect on the environment. To the extent that
there are any remaining significant effects upon the environment, the City
Council hereby determines such effects are unavoidable and acceptable because
the benefits of the adoption of the Redevelopment Plan outweigh any such
adverse environmental effects, in that the redevelopment of the Project Area
and the elimination of blight therein pursuant to Health and Safety Code
Section 33000, et seq., will generally create a better living and working
environment for the Project Area and the community.
Section 5. The City Clerk is hereby authorized and directed to file a
Notice of Determination pursuant to 14 California Administrative Code Section
15094.
