Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Statutory Exemption
Type, Section or Code
California Public Resources Code Section 21080.57
Reasons for Exemption
PRC §21080.57 exempts any activity or approval necessary for or incidental to planning, design, site acquisition, construction, operation, or maintenance of public park, or nonmotorized recreational trail facilities funded in whole or in part by the Safe Drinking Water, Wildfire Prevention, Drought Preparedness, and Clean Air Bond Act of 2024 (2024 Climate Bond). The project is consistent with Section 21080.57 because it will plan for nonmotorized recreational trail facilities.
