Document Description
The Design Site Review Agreement is for
approval to allow architectural façade changes to the JR Dudley building as a commercial tenant
improvement. This Design Site Review Agreement is for architectural façade modifications to an existing
commercial building in downtown Newcastle. The existing building is a combination of brick on the front
face and painted brick on the side and rear; these features of the building would remain unchanged.
New changes to the building include replacing rear awnings with industrial-style horizontal awning with
cable braces, gutters, and downspouts on the building frontage. Three new awnings would be
constructed to the front entries. Storefront windows would be replaced to include dark bronze
aluminum frames where white frames currently exist. Accessibility upgrades including signage, striping,
and curbs would be made to the parking spaces.

Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
Sections 15301 and 15305
Reasons for Exemption
The proposed project is categorically exempt from environmental
review in accordance with Sections 15301 and 15305 of the California Environmental Quality Act
(CEQA) Guidelines and PCC Section 18.36.030 (Class 1 - Existing facilities) and Section 18.36.070 (Class 5
– Minor alterations in land use limitations) because modifications to an existing commercial building is an
exempt project under Class 1 and approval of a Design Site Review Agreement is an exempt action
under Class 5 that would not result in the creation of any new parcel. The Zoning Administrator will be
required to make a finding to this effect.
