Document Description
The applicant is requesting
approval of a modification to the previously authorized use of a 3,200 square-foot steel framed and
sided accessory structure located on the property. The structure was originally approved for
construction by the Zoning Administrator on November 20, 2025, as a residential accessory building,
replacing a wood and-steel structure destroyed by fire in late 2023. The replacement is an all-metal
cold shell built in the same location as the original building. A modification to the previously approved
Design Review Agreement is proposed to establish the use as a commercial use accessory to the
primary commercial use (office building). This proposed commercial use is consistent with the
property's Neighborhood Commercial (C1) Zoning Designation under Section 17.30.010. No other
changes to the project including the design, location, or use of the building are proposed, and the
structure would be used for storage only. The modification is necessary to ensure compliance with
the C1 zone district, which does not permit residential uses, and the existing use is commercial. As
the use designation of the site was a key component of the original approval, a modification to the
previously approved Design Site Review Agreement is required.

Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
Sections 15302
Reasons for Exemption
The proposed project is categorically exempt from
environmental review in accordance with Sections 15302 of the California Environmental Quality Act
(CEQA) Guidelines and Sections and Section 18.36.040 (Class 2 - Replacement and Reconstructions)
of the Placer County Code because the project is the reconstruction and replacement of a new
structure on the same site as the structure replaced and would have substantially the same purpose
and capacity as the structure replaced, is an exempt project under Class 2. The Zoning Administrator
will be required to make a finding to this effect.
