Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
Categorical Exemption: Section 15301 (e), Existing Facilities and Section 15303, New Construction or Conversion of Small
Reasons for Exemption
The City of San Diego determined that the project would qualify to be categorically exempt from CEQA pursuant to 15301 (e), Existing Facilities. CEQA Section 15301
allows for the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing facilities (public or private), involving negligible or no expansion of use beyond that existing at the time of the determination. The project meets the criteria under 15301 (e) because the proposed 1,038-square-foot addition to the existing single-family residence would not result in an increase of more than 50 percent of the existing 3,914 square feet of floor area before the addition, or 2,500 square feet, nor 10,000 square feet since project is located in an area where all public
services and facilities are available and the area is not environmentally sensitive. The project would also qualify to be categorically exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15303, New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures. Section 15303 allows for the construction and location of limited numbers of new, small facilities or structures; installation of small new equipment and facilities in small structures; and the conversion of existing small structures from one use to another where
only minor modifications are made in the exterior of the structure. The project would convert 725 square feet of area on the first floor into an accessory dwelling unit, resulting in one new dwelling unit, totaling two dwelling units at the project site. The exceptions listed in CEQA Section 15300.2 would not apply in that no cumulative impacts were identified; no significant effect on the environment was identified; the project is not adjacent to a scenic highway; lastly, the project was not identified on a list of hazardous waste sites pursuant to Section 65962.5 of the Government Code.
