The City Council of the City of Arcadia ( "City Council "), on July 16, 2013, adopted Resolution No. 6984 declaring the intention of the City Council to vacate and abandon Front Street in its entirety in the City of Arcadia, County of Los Angeles, State of California. The location of the proposed vacation is more particularly described and shown in Exhibit "A" and "B" attached hereto. SECTION 2. Notices of Resolution No. 6984 were duly published and posted in the manner and form and at the time required by the Streets and Highways Code of the State of California, Sections 8322 and 8323. SECTION 3. On August 20, 2013, the City Council opened the public hearing and continued the public hearing to September 17, 2013 at 7:00 p.m. in the Council Chamber of Arcadia City Hall, 240 West Huntington Drive, Arcadia, California, at which time the City Council received all comments and evidence offered by persons interested in the proposed vacation of Front Street. SECTION 4. Pursuant to Government Code 65402(a), the Planning Commission of the City of Arcadia, during its regular meeting on July 9, 2013 determined that the proposed vacation is consistent with the General Plan of the City of Arcadia. SECTION 5. The City Council does find that the vacation of Front Street is being made in accordance with Chapters 3 and 5 of Part 3 of Division 9 of the Streets and Highways Code of the State of California (Streets and Highways Code Section 8320, et seq.) SECTION 6. Pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the proposed vacation is covered under the general rule that CEQA applies only to projects that have a potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. This action consists of a legal transfer of ownership which will result in negligible or no expansion of use beyond the project analyzed in the EIR , adopted in 2007 for the Gold Line Extension. Where it can be seen with certainty that the activity will not have a significant effect on the environment, a Notice of Exemption is sufficient. Therefore, a Notice of Exemption has been filed with the County Clerk of the County of Los Angeles. SECTION 7. Pursuant to the Streets and Highways Code Section 8340 and 8341, the City Council of the City of Arcadia finds that the public convenience and necessity require the reservation and exception of a public utility easement from the vacation. SECTION 8. Pursuant to the Streets and Highways Code Section 8324, The City Council finds from all evidence submitted that Front Street is unnecessary for present or prospective public use and, therefore, it is ordered that Front Street be vacated. SECTION 9. The City Clerk of the City of Arcadia shall certify to the adoption of this Resolution and shall cause a certified copy thereof to be recorded without acknowledgement, certificate of acknowledgement, or further proof in the Office of the 2 County Recorder of Los Angeles County after the aforementioned conditions have been satisfied. SECTION 10. From and after the date this Resolution No. 6989 is recorded, Front Street in its entirety will no longer constitute a public right -of -way. SECTION 11.
