Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
15311 class 11(a)
Reasons for Exemption
1. The proposed project will not result in a significant impact to the environment since it involves minor code amendments to allow on-premise freestanding signs not to exceed 8 square feet in area and 5 feet in height. The proposed design guidelines and requirement for Design Review Board review of individual sign proposals will ensure compatibility with the historic character of the Old Escondido Neighborhood.
2. The proposed amendments would have de minimis impacts on fish and wildlife resources since the proposed amendment would apply to properties in an urban setting that have already been developed.
