Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
Class 2; California Code of Regulations, title 14, section 15302(c) Class 11; Section 15311(c)
Reasons for Exemption
The proposed project entails the replacement of the existing athletics field light poles and bulbs at Skyline High School. The proposed project would therefore qualify for categorical exemption under Class 2 -Replacement or Reconstruction. Light poles for athletic fields specifically qualify as accessory structures because they serve an incidental subordinate purpose to the athletic fields. Therefore, the proposed project also qualifies for categorical exemption under Class 11 -Accessory Structures.
