Reasons for Exemption
Class 3 consists of construction and location of limited numbers of new, small facilities or structures. A project is exempt if it is a store, motel, office, restaurant, or similar structure not involving the use of significant amounts of hazardous substances, and not exceeding 2,500 square-foot in floor area. The proposed project consists of the construction of a 2,200–square foot Starbucks store with a drive-through in the Business and Professional Office (BP) zoning district and would not involve the use of significant hazardous materials. Site improvements include new driveways, a new parking area, a new trash enclosure, new patio seating, and new landscaped areas.
