Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
15301
Reasons for Exemption
Under the provisions of Section 15301 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, interior modifications to an existing commercial building to accommodate a commercial recreation facility, with no expansion of the existing structure where it will be located, is categorically exempt from CEQA.
Section 15301 of the State CEQA Guidelines, titled “Existing Facilities,” reads as follows:
“Class 1 consists of the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features, involving negligible or no expansion of existing or former use. The types of “existing facilities” itemized below are not intended to be all-inclusive of the types of projects that might fall within Class 1. The key consideration is whether the project involves negligible or no expansion of use.”
The proposed use for the operation of an indoor recreation facility in an existing commercial building constitutes the leasing of an existing private structure. There would not be any increase in the building square footage and no expansion of the existing land use. Therefore, the project is exempt from further review under CEQA pursuant to Section 15301 of the State CEQA guidelines.
