Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
California Code of Regulations, title 14, section 15332 – In-Fill Development
Reasons for Exemption
The Project is consistent with the applicable General Plan land use designation, applicable General Plan policies, and applicable zoning designation and regulations. The site is located within the City limits, is less than five acres in size, and is substantially surrounded by urban development. The site has previously been developed and contains no habitat for endangered, rare, or threatened species.
As documented in the Traffic Assessment Report prepared for the Project, the proposed vehicle queuing capacity exceeds the minimum storage requirements for the use and would avoid off-site circulation or queuing impacts onto Madison Avenue. In addition, the City’s Traffic Engineer determined that the Project would not create significant traffic impacts beyond those already anticipated within the City’s General Plan Circulation Element.
The Noise Study prepared for the Project determined that operation of the proposed car wash facility, with implementation of the recommended operational features and equipment specifications, including use of an ultra-quiet blower system and limited hours of operation, would comply with applicable City noise standards and would not result in significant noise impacts to surrounding properties, including nearby residential uses.
The site is adequately served by existing public utilities and services, including water, sewer, roadway infrastructure, police, and fire protection services. In addition, the site is not included on any list compiled pursuant to Section 65962.5 of the California Government Code.
Furthermore, the City has considered the exceptions to the use of categorical exemptions identified in CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2 and determined that no exceptions apply to the Project.
