Document Description
The project sponsor proposes to demolish the existing, 10,361-square foot commercial building and redevelop the project site with an eight-story (approximately 93 feet tall at the highest point), 112-unit residential apartment building with common and publicly accessible outdoor spaces and parking. Of the 112 units, 10 units would be affordable to very-low-income households and four units would be affordable to moderate-income households. To achieve the 112 proposed residential units, the project sponsor would use both the bonus-level development permitted by the City's Municipal Code as well as additional benefits provided under the State Density Bonus Law. The project would be designed to achieve Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Gold for Building Design and Construction (BD+C) and be an all-electric building.

Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Statutory Exemption
Type, Section or Code
PRC §21083.3 and CEQA Guidelines §15183
Reasons for Exemption
The Menlo Park City Council adopted an update to the Menlo Park General Plan that modified the Land Use and Circulation Elements (referred to herein as ConnectMenlo) and certified the ConnectMenlo EIR (SCH No. 2015062054) on November 29, 2016. The ConnectMenlo EIR is supplemented by the Housing Element Update (HEU) Subsequent Environmental Impact Report (SEIR) (SCH No. 2015062054), which analyzed up to 4,000 new residential units and accounted for pending pipeline projects and 85 accessory dwelling units (ADUs) within the eight-year
planning period. The additional units analyzed in the HEU SEIR could be developed throughout the City, including the project site. The environmental impacts of the project were evaluated pursuant to CEQA Guidelines §15183 and the analysis in the Community Plan Exemption Checklist found the project would not result in: impacts peculiar to the project or parcal, new significant impacts that was were not previously analyzed in the ConnectMenlo EIR or HEU SEIR, new significant off-site impacts and cumulalive impacts not previously analyzed in the prior EIRs, or a new
significant effect (which was not known at the time the EIRs were certified) that would have a more severe adverse impact than discussed in the prior EIRs.
