Document Description
The project consists of a lot line adjustment between Lots 9 and 24, and common Lots B and I of the Carmichael Promenade Map.

Lot B will be reduced to just the paseo running from north to south, adjacent to Lots 12, 13, 20, and 21.

Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
PRC Section 21084; CEQA Guidelines Sections 15300-15333 • CEQA Guidelines Section 15305 – Minor Alterations to Land Use
Reasons for Exemption
The project is categorically exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15305 (Minor Alterations in Land Use Limitations) of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations. CEQA Guidelines Section 15305 applies to projects that consist of minor alterations in land use limitations in areas with an average slope of less than 20% that do not result in any changes in land use or density and includes projects such as minor lot line adjustments and setback variances that do not result in the creation of new parcels. The State has determined that these types of projects are a class of projects that will not have a significant effect on the environment. The project involves a minor lot line adjustment between two parcels and a common lot that does not result in the creation of any additional lots, nor does the proposed adjustment result in any changes in the allowed land use or density. Additionally, none of the exceptions set forth in CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2, which would preclude a project from using a categorical exemption, are applicable, as described further below. Therefore, the project is exempt from the provisions of CEQA.
Section 15300.2-Exceptions
Section 15300.2 of the CEQA Guidelines, Exceptions, provides conditions under which categorical exemptions are inapplicable. Review of the Project indicates that it will not violate any of the exceptions, as described in the following section.
1. For Classes 3, 4, 5, 6, and 11, will the project have an impact on an environmental resource of hazardous or critical concern where designated, precisely mapped, and officially adopted pursuant to law by federal, state, or local agencies?
The project is not located in a fire hazard severity zone, it is not within a flood plain and is not within an area of an environmental resource of hazardous or critical concern where designated, precisely mapped, and officially adopted. Therefore, the project will not result in impacts on an environmental resource of hazardous or critical concern.
2. Will cumulative impacts be considerable because successive projects of the same type will occur at the same place over time?
As it stands, the project will not result in potentially significant impacts as the project is a minor lot line adjustment that does not result in the creation of any additional lots, nor does the proposed adjustment result in any changes in the allowed land use or density. Therefore, no cumulative impacts will result from the project and successive projects of the same type and at the same place over time.
3. Is there a reasonable possibility that the activity will have a significant effect on the environment due to unusual circumstances?
There are no known unusual circumstances that will have a significant effect on the environment.
4. Will the project result in damage to scenic resources, including but not limited to trees, historic buildings, rock outcroppings, or similar resources within a highway officially designated as a scenic highway?
River Road/ Highway 160 (from the Sacramento City Limits at the northern edge of Freeport to the southern tip of the Delta at Antioch Bridge) is a designated State Scenic Highway. The Project is not located within the vicinity of this scenic highway. Therefore, the project will not result in damage to scenic resources or similar resources within a highway that is officially designated as a scenic highway.
5. Is the project located on a site which is included on any list compiled pursuant to Section 65962.5 of the Government Code?
The project site is not included on any list compiled pursuant to Section 65962.5 of the Government Code. Therefore, implementation of the project will not have an impact related to being located on a hazardous waste site.
6. Will the project cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historic resource?
The project site does not contain any historical resources.
