Document Description
Fair housing laws, including Fair Housing Amendments Act of 1988 and California's Fair Employment and Housing Act, ("Acts") require local governments to make reasonable accommodations with respect to their land use and zoning regulations to reduce impediments to equal opportunity to housing for individuals with disabilities. The proposed Zoning Code text amendment amends the Industry Municipal Code to establish a process for the review and approval of reasonable accommodations.

Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
15061(b)(3) (Common Sense Exemption)
Reasons for Exemption
The proposed text amendment establishing a reasonable accommodation process does not have the potential for creating a significant effect on the environment and is therefore exempt from further review under CEQA pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3) because it can be seen with certainty that adoption of the Resolution has no possibility of having a significant effect on the environment. The proposed ordinance will adopt fair housing reasonable accommodations as required by State law and does not change the density, intensity, or allowed uses, or otherwise have other effects on the environment. The proposed ordinance is not for any specific project and therefore will not impact any environmental resource or hazardous or critical concern, will not create cumulative impacts, or impacts to scenic highways, hazardous waste sites, or historical resources.
