Type, Section or Code
Public Resources Code (PRC) Section 21083.3; CEQA Guidelines Section 15183(a) - Projects consistent with development den
Reasons for Exemption
Section 15183 (PRC Section 21083.3), provides that projects which are consistent with the development density established by zoning, community plan, or general plan policies for which an environmental impact report (EIR) has been certified "shall not require additional environmental review, except as might be
necessary to examine whether there are project-specific significant effects which are peculiar to the project or its site ." An EIR was prepared and certified by the Board of Supervisors for the Sacramento County
General Plan Update (SCH# 2007082086) incorporated by reference and available at:
https://planning.saccounty.gov/PlansandProjectsln Progress/Pages/GeneralPlan.aspx.
The project is consistent with the development density and use characteristics considered by the General Plan EIR and Zoning Code for the Agricultural Residential (Ag Res) land use designation. The project site is an underutilized lot (abandoned orchard) surrounded by agricultural residential and residential land uses;
therefore, the project is characterized as residential infill. The General Plan Update Final EIR contemplated impacts associated with the buildout of residential infill parcels. The development of these areas would be consistent with the surrounding uses.
The project will introduce 10 new single-family residential lots and residences, with a new private road extending from Filbert Avenue. In addition, Crown Street will be completed with a cul-de-sac that will serve proposed Lot 6 on the eastern boundary of the project site. Crown Street will require Class B public street
improvements and Filbert Avenue will require Class D public street improvements, consistent with County improvement standards. Class B street improvements consist of concrete curb, gutter and streetlights.
Class D improvements include roadway surfacing, drainage facilities and pedestrian walkways within the dedicated right-of-way.
No new impacts peculiar to the project or the parcel on which the project will be located have been identified that would necessitate further environmental review beyond the impacts and issues already disclosed and analyzed in the General Plan Update EIR. No other special circumstances exist that would
create a reasonable possibility that the project will have a significant adverse effect on the environment.
Therefore, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15183, no further environmental review is required .
