Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
CEQA Guidelines Class 1 Section 15301 Existing Facilities (c)
Reasons for Exemption
Project is categorically exempt, consistent with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the State CEQA Guidelines, pursuant to Title 14, Cal. Code Regulations Sections 15061(b)(3) (Commonsense Rule) and 15301 (Existing Facilities).

The project will not require additional public services. Conditions of approval are included to ensure compliance with County requirements and to minimize any potential impacts.
