Resolution 12261CITY OF ALAMEDA RESOLUTION NO. 12261
ADOPTING NEGATIVE DECLARATION IS-92-6 FOR THE ATLANTIC
AVENUE LINEAR PARK LAND ACQUISITION AND DEVELOPMENT
WHEREAS, pursuant the California Environmental Quality Act, a
Negative Declaration, IS-92-6, has been prepared for the Atlantic
Avenue linear park land acquisition and development; and
WHEREAS, after holding a public hearing for a Negative
Declaration, IS-92-6, and examining pertinent maps, drawings and
documents as contained in the Staff Report to the Planning Board
dated June 8, 1992, the Planning Board of the City of Alameda on
June 8, 1992 unanimously recommended adoption of Negative
Declaration, IS-92-6; and
WHEREAS, the Council of the City of Alameda considered the
Negative Declaration, IS-92-6 on June 16, 1992 and has examined
pertinent maps, drawings, documents, and the Council staff report,
dated June 9, 1992; and
WHEREAS, the Council has made the following findings:
1. The project does not have the potential to substantially
degrade the quality of the environment, substantially
reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause
a fish and wildlife population to drop below self-
sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or
animal community, reduce the number or restrict the range
of a rare or endangered plant or animal, or eliminate
important examples of the major periods of California
history or prehistory, because the project site is a
railroad right of way and has limited habitat value.
2. The project does not have the potential to achieve short
term, to the disadvantage of long term, environmental
goals, because it is a reuse of a surplus railroad right
of way to meet City recreation needs.
3. The project does not have possible environmental effects
which are individually limited but cumulatively
considerable.
4. The project does not have environmental effects which
will cause substantial adverse effects on human beings,
either directly or indirectly.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Council of the City of
Alameda that said Council adopts Negative Declaration, IS-92-6.
I, the undersigned, hereby certify that the foregoing Resolution
was duly and regularly adopted and passed by the Council of the
City of Alameda in regular meeting assembled on the 16th day of
June , 1992, by the following vote to wit:
AYES: Councilmembers Arnerich, Camicia, Lucas, Roth

official seal of said City this 17th day of June 1992.
