Document Description
The proposed project consists of the acquisition of a 0.93-acre parcel located at 6975 Atlantic Avenue (APN 7101-017-020) along the east bank of the Lower Los Angeles River within the Fourth Supervisorial District. The property has direct frontage on the river and is adjacent to the existing 72nd Street Equestrian Park. The site was historically used as a horse stable rental facility and will be acquired to preserve the land for future public park and recreational purposes. No development, construction, or change in use beyond land acquisition is proposed at this time.
Prior to acquisition, the County of Los Angeles Department of Parks and Recreation completed technical evaluations, including a land analysis, appraisal, title review, and Phase I Environmental Site Assessment, to confirm the property’s suitability for public ownership. The acquisition will be conducted in accordance with Government Code section 25350 and applicable notice requirements. Any future park development would be subject to separate environmental review under CEQA once a project scope is defined.

Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
Section 15325 (f)
Reasons for Exemption
The proposed Atlantic Avenue Acquisition Project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under Section 15325(f) of the State CEQA Guidelines and Class 25 of the County’s Environmental Document Reporting Procedures and Guidelines, Appendix G, as the project consists of acquiring land to preserve the site for future park purposes. Review of project records confirms that the acquisition will comply with all applicable regulations, and presents no cumulative impacts, unusual circumstances, effects on scenic highways, hazardous waste site concerns pursuant to Government Code section 65962.5, or potential for adverse
effects on historical resources that would make the exemption inapplicable. Prior to implementation of a park project under CEQA, further CEQA review will be conducted once a development scope for the future park is defined, necessary findings under CEQA would be recommended.
