Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
Class 3. Section 15303 New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures
Reasons for Exemption
The project consists of the conversion of 2,284 square feet of existing retail space within an existing multi-tenant shopping center to a retail cannabis business. The multi-tenant shopping center is located on a 0.71-acre corner lot in the GC Zone, in an urbanized area with all necessary public services available to serve the site. The surrounding area is developed with urban uses and would not be considered environmentally sensitive. The project proposes converting an existing 2,284 square foot retail suite within the shopping center, adding additional landscaping, painting and adding exterior lighting. The conversion does not exceed 10,000 square feet and the proposed retail use will not involve significant amounts of hazardous substances. Through review of the project and project site, none of the exceptions in Section 15300.2 exist and the project may rely on the categorical exemption.
