CC Agenda Item 4(c)
Section 2. Severability. If any section, subsection, subdivision, paragraph, sentence,
clause, or phrase of this Ordinance, or its application to any person or circumstance, is for any
reason held to be invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the
validity or enforceability of the remaining sections, subsections, subdivisions, paragraphs,
sentences, clauses or phrases of this Ordinance, or its application to any person or circumstance.
The City Council of the City of Redding hereby declares that it would have adopted each section,
subsection, subdivision, paragraph, sentence, clause, or phrase hereof, irrespective of the fact that
any one or more other sections, subsections, subdivisions, paragraphs, sentences, clauses, or
phrases hereof be declared invalid or unenforceable.
Section 3. The City of Redding finds that, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines sections
15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical
change in the environment) and 15061(b)(3) (there is no possibility the activity in question may
have a significant effect on the environment), the adoption of this Ordinance is therefore not
subject to the provisions requiring environmental review. The ordinance will not increase traffic
but serves only to redirect traffic which already exists.

City of Redding at a regular meeting on the 4th day of April, 2023, and was duly read and adopted
