Document Description
The Project involves replacing the existing parking lot on the eastern perimeter of the La Verne Science and Technology Charter School campus and expanding it southward along the perimeter onto an underutilized field. The Project would add 24 new standard stalls, including 4 electric vehicle capable spaces. The existing driveway, parking lot, natural turf and trees, and ancillary improvements such as curb, pavement, irrigation piping, and fencing separating the lot from the field would be removed. A baseball backstop located in the expanded lot would be relocated to another area of the school. The parking lot would include new security lighting, curb and gutter, shade trees, and fencing to separate it from the existing school uses. New traffic control signs and markings would be installed. The Project also proposes improvements to the boys' and girls' restrooms in Building D. The modernized facilities would be wheelchair accessible. The existing fixtures would be removed, and new plumbing would be installed. New restroom signage would be installed at the boys' and girls' restrooms, as well as a staff restroom in the administration office. The Project would result in improved parking, wayfinding, and accessibility.

Reasons for Exemption
Class 1 (Existing Facilities) applies to the Project because existing parking and restroom facilities would be maintained at the existing school, and existing school operations would not be expanded. Class 4 (Minor Alterations to Land) applies to the Project as the development footprint would be restored with new pavement and landscaping to limit erosion and allow for continued use of the facility; additionally, the trees to be removed are not scenic. Class 11 (Accessory Structures) applies to the Project, as the proposed existing and expanded parking, restroom, and signage improvements are accessory to the existing campus. Moreover, none of the exceptions to exemptions listed under CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2 apply to the Project.
