Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
Section 15378(b)95)
Reasons for Exemption
Zone Change 25-0003 is not a project pursuant to Section 15378(b)(5) of the CEQA
Guidelines because it is an administrative activity of the City that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment. Section 15061(b)(3) exempts projects from CEQA that are covered by the common-sense exemption that CEQA only applies to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the
environment. This project is only for an update to the City of La Habra's Municipal Code. Because it is certain that an update to the Municipal Code will have no possibility of having any significant effect on the environment, the project is not subject to CEQA.
