Reasons for Exemption
The proposed project involves the maintenance, repair, and upgrade of an existing park facility to ensure that it continues to provide recreational opportunities to the residents of the City of Lancaster. The proposed project involves the construction of new park amenities (half court basketball court, splash pad, etc.) and the replacement/upgrade of existing equipment to ensure that all visitors to the park are able to enjoy the recreational amenities. The project site does not provide habitat for special status species, would not result in a cumulative or significant impact, and is not located along a scenic highway or on a hazardous materials site. The project site is currently developed with a park and the use would not change.
