City staff and "Our City Forest" volunteers will also perform needed tree care, e.g. stake removal, tree-tie adjustment, irrigation, pruning, weeding, fertilization, etc., for existing, recently planted trees throughout the City. These trees were planted by the City or with funding provided by various urban tree-planting grants. Grant funding will also be used to conduct a program to educate the public about the importance of urban trees and their need for lon-term and appropriate maintenance. It is anticipated the this project will commence April 2000, and be completed by February 2001. All maintenance practices will be performaed in compliance with current arboricultural standards as required by the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection.

Reasons for Exemption
As lead agency under CEQA, the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection finds that this project is Categorically Exempt. This project involves minor alterations to land and vegetation including the planting of new landscaping trees. As this is a heavily disturbed urban environment there is a low likelihood of impacting any significant biological resources. CDF's archaeological staff have reviewed this project and determined that there are no cultural or historic resources present in the project vicinity. CDF's finds that the proposed activities will pose a less than significant impact to the environment
