Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Other
Type, Section or Code
(Sec. 15061 (b)(3)/(5)), Sec. 15060(c)(2) and 15060(c)(3)
Reasons for Exemption
Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the State CEQA Guidelines, adoption of the proposed ordinance is exempt from environmental review under Section 15061 (b)(3) (Common Sense Exemption), as it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility the action may have a significant effect on the environment. The ordinance establishes administrative and regulatory requirements related to the modification, maintenance, and transfer of historic properties and does not authorize physical construction or development. Additionally, the action is not a project pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) and 15060(c)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines because it will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.
