Document Description
The proposed project will be developed on the northeastern corner of the Foothill Oaks Elementary School campus, along Lancelot Drive. The area is currently occupied by three existing trees, fencing, and playground equipment that will be removed. The proposed project will not require demolition of any existing buildings.
The proposed project will include the construction of a new classroom building that will contain one new TK classroom, one TK restroom, and a utility room. The proposed project will accommodate an additional 24 students, representing a 5 percent increase in total campus capacity. Additionally, the proposed project will include surrounding hardscape and improvements surrounding the new classroom building. New utility connections will serve the classroom building. A new playground will be constructed just north of the proposed classroom building, replacing an existing one.
Construction of the proposed project will occur in one phase, beginning in winter 2027 and will be completed in fall 2027. Less than one acre of the project site would be disturbed during project construction.

Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
Class 3, CEQA Guidelines Section 15303; Class 14, CEQA Guidelines Section 15314
Reasons for Exemption
The proposed project will consist of the construction of a new classroom building and associated hardscape and utility improvements within an existing elementary school campus. The proposed classroom building will function as a small institutional structure accessory to the continued operation of the school campus and will remain consistent with the existing educational use of the site. The proposed project will occur entirely within the existing developed school grounds and will not require expansion of campus boundaries or off-site improvements. Therefore, the proposed project is exempt from CEQA under Section 15303.
The proposed project will include the addition of a single building and associated hardscape and utility improvements to the existing school campus. The proposed project will add one classroom, accommodating an additional 20 students, which represents a 5 percent increase in total campus capacity. Accordingly, the proposed project will not increase student capacity by more than 25 percent and will add fewer than 10 classrooms, consistent with the requirements of Section 15314. All project components will occur entirely within the existing developed school campus and will not require expansion of the campus boundaries or result in off-site improvements. The proposed project will maintain the existing educational use of the site and will involve only minor additions and improvements to the campus. Therefore, the project is exempt from CEQA under Section 15314.
The proposed project was also reviewed for possible exceptions under Section 15300.2 and found that the exceptions do not apply.
