Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
Section 15002(i)(1) -lack of Local Jurisdictional Discretion
Reasons for Exemption
The project is appropriate for exemption because the municipal code amendments are consistent with State law that preempt any inconsistent local ordinance. Thus, the City's action is not creating a new
land use regulation and it can be seen with certainty that no environmental impacts will result from the City's action.
