Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
Class 1 Section 15301
Reasons for Exemption
The project was reviewed for potential exemptions and was found to satisfy the standards of Class 1 Categorical Exemption as specified within Section 15301 (Existing Facilities) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because the project involves a minor alteration of existing public or private structures. The use is consistent with the General Plan designation of Specific Plan. The zoning classification is Uptown Whittier Specific Plan (UWSP) and specifically, the project is within the limits of the Uptown Center District portion of the Plan. Therefore, the city of Whittier has determined that the project will not have a significant effect on the environment and a Notice of Exemption will be filed pursuant to Section 15301, Class 1 (Existing Facilities) of the CEQA Guidelines.
