Document Description
Council approval to allow for revisions to the Municipal Code Chapters 12 and 14. The code revision involves an amendment to the City of San Diego's Land Development Code and Biology Guidelines to clarify when impacts may be allowed and would assist staff, City decision makers, reviewing agencies and the public when a project may impact wetlands. The Municipal Code Environmentally Sensitive Lands regulations and Biology Guidelines are both implementing regulations of the Multiple Species Conservation Program. Currently, impacts to wetlands are not allowed under the Municipal Code unless a project obtains a Site Development Permit and meets certain criteria findings for approval as specified under section 126.0504 of the Land Development Code. In order to impact wetlands under the current regulations, the following Site Development Permit Environmentally Sensitive Lands deviation findings must be made:
- There are no feasible measures that can further minimize the potential adverse effects on environmentally sensitive lands; and
- The proposed deviation is the minimum necessary to afford relief from special circumstance or conditions to the land and not of the applicant's making.
