Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
CEQA Guidelines Sec. 15601(b)(3)
Reasons for Exemption
The approval of Development Code Text Change No. 668.17(b) is exempt from CEQA review pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the Guidelines for California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA Guidelines). This section states that a project is exempt from CEQA if the activity is covered by the general rule that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. The changes in the Development Code are technical changes concerning general policy for the implementation of the zoning regulations and there is no possibility that these changes will have a significant effect on the environment by the act of adopting the Development Code Text Change. For the same reason, none of the circumstances in CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2 applies.
