Reasons for Exemption
Pursuant to California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Sections 15301 (Existing Facilities) and 15311 (Accessory Structures), the proposed project is exempt from CEQA under the Class 1 and Class 11 categorical exemptions since the project involves the modifications to an existing curbside drive-up area, within an existing parking lot located within a developed shopping center.
