Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
Section 15301, Class 1 Exemption; CEOA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3)
Reasons for Exemption
Staff has determined that the proposed interim project is Categorically
Exempt from environmental review pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15301
(Class 1 Existing Facilities). This section provides an exemption for activities where
there is negligible or no expansion of use beyond than is previously existing.
Additionally, on a separate and independent basis, the Actions are each exempt
from environmental review pursuant to CEOA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3) because it can be determined with certainty that there is no possibility that approval of the Actions will result in a direct or a reasonably foreseeable indirect significant impact on the environment. Lastly, it has further been determined that the proposed interim project is not subject to environmental review pursuant to Public Resources Code, Section 21080.50 (a) (1) (Interim Motel Housing Project) which provides that CEQA does not apply to an interim motel housing project (the conversion of a structure with a certificate of occupancy as a motel, hotel, residential hotel, or hostel to supportive or transitional housing) if one or both of the following conditions is met:
a) It does not result in the expansion of more than 10 percent of the floor
area of any individual living unit in the structure.
b) It does not result in any significant effects relating to traffic, noise, air
quality, or water quality.
As noted above the project consists of negligible or no expansion of use beyond
than is previously existing. Therefore, it can be determined with certainty that
there is no possibility that approval of this project will result in a direct or a
reasonably foreseeable indirect significant impact on the environment.
