Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
Categorical Exemption [Section 15303]; Common Sense Section 15601(b)(3)
Reasons for Exemption
Staff has reviewed the Project to determine the required level of review under CEQA. The proposed Project is exempt from CEQA under State CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3) (Common Sense Exemption). Section 15061(b)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines states that an activity is covered by the Common Sense Exemption that CEQA only applies to projects that have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA review. The Project includes amendments to the Conditions of Approval and Subdivision Design Review approved for the Sheldon Park Estates Tentative Subdivision Map Project (EG-13-016) and a Finding of Consistency with the General Plan for future roadway and drainage easement abandonments in order to create a private gated community. Based on staff’s review of the project, no special circumstances exist that would create a reasonable possibility that the Project will have a significant effect on the environment as the proposed amendments and abandonments will not bring any physical change to the environment. The layout of the roadways will stay the same as what was originally approved with the exception of going from public to private. The Project is consistent with General Plan Policies LU-7-1, H-3-3, and RA-1-1. Therefore, the Project qualifies for the exemption under Section 15061(b)(3) (Common Sense Exemption) and no further environmental review is required.
