Exemption Under CEQA Guidelines Section 15301 and 15302 apply to the proposed project. (a) Location: the project is not located
within a hillside area, as verified on ZIMAS the subject site does not contain an officially mapped environmental resource of hazardous

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. Most adjacent lots are developed with single-family dwellings and

of the LAMC, with the approval of the modification of Entitlement. The project is not unusual for the vicinity as there is an existing country
