Document Description
The project is requesting to allow the construction of a trash enclosure and shade structures within the building and yard setback areas on a parcel in the C-2-MU (General Commercial with a Mixed-Use Overlay) Zone. The trash enclosure is within the property line, and the enclosure's doors, would not exceed the property line. While the proposed enclosure would meet the side yard requirements for the C-2 Zone, the building line setback would be unfilled unless allowed with a setback variance. The proposed shade structures are located within both the front yard setback of ten (10) feet and building setback. The setback variance proposes the shade structures to be constructed within the setback area of the property as the enforcement of the setback requirements would limit the project and reduce the buildable area by approximately 6,000 square feet.

Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
CEQA Guidelines Class 5 Section 15305 Minor Alterations to Land Use Limitations
Reasons for Exemption
This action is consistent with Section 15305, Class 5, as it is applicable to projects pertaining to minor alterations to land use limitations, such as lot line adjustments, variances, and encroachment permits on land with a slope of less than 20%, that do not result in changes in land use or density. The project is compatible with this exemption because the project Setback Variance will not change the land use or intensity of use.
