Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
CEQA Guidelines section 15301 (Existing Facilities)
Reasons for Exemption
The proposed project qualifies for a categorical exemption pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15301 (Existing Facilities) meeting all applicable conditions, as further described below.
1. The project consists of the minor alterations to the existing on-site parking lot, changing the parking lot circulation to a one-way entrance and exit, and restriping a majority of the parking spaces from perpendicular to angled spaces, for the existing church and K-8 school facilities on the property. The project does not involve any expansions of the existing uses or structures on site. The project thus adheres to the criteria of CEQA Guidelines section 15301, Class 1.
2. The Project consists of minor interior improvements for plumbing and electrical conveyances to the existing K-8 classroom buildings. The project thus adheres to the criteria of CEQA Guidelines section 15301(b).
The Project also does not trigger any exceptions to categorical exemptions identified in CEQA Guidelines section 15300.2, in that:
- Location. The proposed project is not located in a particularly sensitive environment, and does not impact an environmental resource of hazardous or critical concern as none have been identified in the project site.
- Cumulative Impact. The proposed project will not result in a cumulative impact from successive projects of the same type in the same place, over time, as the project is consistent with the General Plan policies which were addressed within the General Plan Final EIR.
- Significant Effect. There are no unusual circumstances surrounding the project that would result in a reasonable possibility of a significant effect on the environment, as the area of impact is surrounded by urban development. The proposed project will involve new construction of approximately 4,500 square feet of residential uses, and will not have significant impact.
- Scenic Highways. The proposed project will not damage scenic resources, including trees, historic buildings, rock outcroppings, or similar resources as the property is surrounded by urban development, and is not located on or adjacent to any identified resources.
- Hazardous Waste Sites. The proposed project site is not located on a site as referenced in Section 65962.5 of the Government Code.
- Historical Resources. The proposed project is not on a site which contains a significant historical resource, and would not cause a substantially adverse change to the significance of a historical resource.
