Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
Section 15331
Reasons for Exemption
The project is categorically exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15331 because the proposed alterations, with conditions, promote the continued use and vitality of the resource as a single-family residence and meets the standard for rehabilitation in accordance with the Secretary of Interior's Standards. The new additions are distinctive and subservient to the historic resource. The proposed design is compatible in mass, scale and proportions with the existing structures and will not obscure character-defining features on primary elevations. The integrity and historical significance of the resource will be preserved and the project will not create a substantial adverse impact to the significance of the resource; therefore, this project qualifies under the Class 31 categorical exemption.
