- ADOPT the determination by the Board of Airport Commissioners that the proposed action is categorically exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in accordance with Article III, Class 1(18)(c) of the Los Angeles City CEQA Guidelines.

Additional funding, in the amount of $15,000, will need to be appropriated from the LAX Revenue Fund to pay for real estate closing costs.
