Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Statutory Exemption
Type, Section or Code
Sec. 21080.66
Reasons for Exemption
Assembly Bill 130 (“AB 130”), which became effective on June 30, 2025, expands the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) to include a new statutory exemption applying to a broad array of infill housing projects. The new exemption is codified in Public Resources Code Section 21080.66. To qualify for this new CEQA exemption projects must meet several criteria, including: be on sites of 20 acres or less; be located within an incorporated municipality; have been previously developed with an urban use; be consistent with the applicable general plan and zoning ordinance; meet minimum density requirements; and not require demolition of a historic structure listed on a national, state, or local historic register. The proposed project, Planned Development Permit PD-24-02 and Lot Merger LOTM-24-01, meets all of the criteria to be eligible for the CEQA exemption under Public Resources Code Section 21080.66, and therefore, is not subject to further CEQA review.
