Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
Article 19: Section 21084; Class 15332 (Infill)
Reasons for Exemption
The project is Categorically Exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15332 (Class 32 - Infill Development) as the project is consistent with the General Plan land use designation and policies and the zoning designation and applicable regulations (as discussed above). The project is located within the city limits on a project site less than five acres in size that is surrounded by urban uses. The applicant submitted a report prepared by Rincon Consultants, Inc. that demonstrates that the site has no value as habitat for endangered, rare, or threatened species and would not result in any significant effects relating to traffic, noise, air quality, or water quality (see attachment to the staff report). Additionally, the project would be adequately served by all required utilities and public services. Therefore, the project meets all of the required criteria to utilize a Class 32 exemption.
