Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
Title 14, Chapter3, Article 19, Class 32, §15332, In-fill Development Projects)
Reasons for Exemption
This project has been determined to be categorically exempt from environmental review pursuant to California Environmental Quality Act and the CEQA Guidelines (Public Resources Code §21080(b)(9); California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Division 6, Chapter 3, §15332, Class 32, In-fill Development Projects). Class 32 exempts from environmental review in-fill development within urbanized areas that are consistent with the General Plan and Zoning requirements. The proposed use and building are consistent with the General Plan, the 2022 East Colorado Specific Plan and Zoning Code requirements. The project site is located in an urbanized area and surrounded by existing commercial, residential, and institutional uses. The project will adhere to applicable regulations and permitting requirements by the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board and the City’s Standard Urban Stormwater Mitigation Plan ordinance and will not have impacts to water quality. Technical studies relating to traffic, noise, air quality and vibration were conducted to support the Class 32 exemption requirements, which found no significant impacts, and there were no exceptions to the exemptions that were found to apply to the project. There are no features that distinguish this project from others in the exempt class and, therefore, there are no unusual circumstances.
