Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
Section 15301 / Class 1
Reasons for Exemption
The project is exempt because it involves the continued maintenance of a restaurant not involving the use of significant amounts of
hazardous substances and not exceeding 10,000 square feet in floor area in an urbanized area. None of the exceptions to the Categorical
Exemption Under CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2 applies to the proposed project. (a) Location: The project is not located within a
hillside area or within the Santa Monica Mountains Zone, the subject site does not contain an officially mapped environmental resource
of hazardous or critical concern. (b) Cumulative Impact: Per ZIMAS, the LADBS Haul Route Status Table, and Navigate LA, there are no
concurrent approved or pending projects or haul routes within the same place of the project site. The proposed Project will not result in
significant cumulative impacts from successive projects of the same type in the same place. (c) Significant Effect: The project will not
have a significant effect on the environment due to unusual circumstances. All adjacent lots are developed with commercial buildings
and mixed-use buildings, and the subject site is of similar size and slope to nearby properties. The project site is located in a typical
urbanized area of the West Los Angeles Community Plan, and the project would be consistent with the designated zoning and would
adhere to all requirements of the LAMC, with the approval of a Main Plan Approval. The project is not unusual for the vicinity of the site
and is similar in scope to other existing mixed-use developments in the area. Furthermore, there is not a reasonable possibility that the
project would have a significant effect on the environment due to unusual circumstances. The project site is located in the Very High Fire
Hazard Severity Zone. (d) Scenic Highways: The project is not in the vicinity of a state scenic highway and will not damage scenic
resources in a state scenic highway. (e) Hazardous Waste Sites: The project site is not on a list compiled pursuant to Government Code
Section 65962.5 related to hazardous waste sites. (f) Historical Resources: Per ZIMAS, SurveyLA, and/or Historic Places LA, the project
site is not identified or eligible as a historical resource. The project will not cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a
historical resource.
