ITEM EXPLANATION: The Friends of the Carlsbad City Library have made three donations to the Carlsbad City Library. The Friends are donating $1,000 resulting from an opportunity drawing for a donated handmade quilt. In addition, the Friends received two donations designated for the Library, a $500 donation from the Ken Blanchard Companies on behalf of their employee Joanne Maynard and a $750 donation from AOL to support library programs featured on its subsidiary, Patch.com. FISCAL IMPACT: Donations to the Library are especially beneficial during the current economic climate in that they augment the budget for the Library allowing the purchase of materials and funding for programs which otherwise might not have been possible. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT: Pursuant to Public Resources Code section 21065, this action does not constitute a "project" within the meaning of CEQA in that it has no potential to cause either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment, and therefore does not require environmental review.
