To authorize and relocate an existing iron fence along Garden Highway. The fence will be relocated approximately 20 feet from the centerline of the Highway towards the residence.

This permit supplements Permit no. 11823 that was issued to Ted and Mary Hillard on January 7, 1977 "To place embankment on berm and construct a house on top, with septic tank, water well and driveways, all on the left bank of the Sacramento River, approximately 1500 feet upstream from Elkhorn Road."

Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
§15301 and §15303
Reasons for Exemption
Board staff has determined the project is exempt from CEQA under the Class 1, existing Facilities, and Class 3, New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures categorical exemptions (CEQA Guidelines § 15301 and § 15303), because the proposed activity consists of permitting and altering the location of an existing fence, which in turn will place a "new" accessory structure on the residential property, and does not result in significant effects to the environment. In addition, an application to change the name of the permittee does not have the potential to result in either a direct physical change in the environment or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment, and thus, is not a “project” for purposes of the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code § 21065; CEQA Guidelines § 15378(a)). Further, none of the exceptions to the exemption in CEQA Guidelines § 15300.2 apply.
