Document Description
Variance application to reduce the required front yard setback from 20 feet to 11 feet. The reduced setback will allow for the construction of a 480-square-foot addition to the front of an existing shop building to be utilized as a replacement office. The existing office will be removed to allow for construction of a new 500,000-gallon above-ground water tank. The water tank is required to improve the water quality, fire protection, and water storage for the Linden community. If approved, the applicant must apply for a building permit, which is a ministerial permit, to construct the office.

Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
Section 15303, Class 3, and Section 15305, Class 5
Reasons for Exemption
This project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) per CEQA Guidelines Section 15303, Class 3, and Section 15305, Class 5. Categorical Exemptions includes a list of classes of projects that have been determined not to have a significant effect on the environment and that are, therefore, exempt from the provisions of CEQA. Section 15303 lists Class 3 projects, which include “construction and location of limited numbers of new, small facilities or structures: installation of small new equipment and facilities in small structure.’ The proposed addition is a small structure with no expected significant effect on the environment and, therefore, the project is not subject to CEQA. Class 5 Categorical Exemption states that projects consisting of minor alterations in land use limitations in areas with an average slope of less than 20%, which do not result in any changes in land use or density, including minor lot line adjustments, side yard and setback variances not resulting in the creation of any new parcel are exempt from CEQA review.
