Reasons for Exemption
The project meets Section 15301(c) Class 1 repair and maintenance categorical exemption because the project is for the repair and maintenance of an existing public roadway, two existing intersections, and improvement of the sidewalk to meet current ADA requirements.

The project would replace and connect existing features, including sidewalks and curbs.
This project meets Section 15302 replacement or reconstruction Class 2(c) categorical ex-emption because the replacement of existing City facilities to meet current safety and ADA standards and will have the same purpose and capacity with no expansion of use. To com-plete the repairs, the City will remove the existing asphalt, concrete, gutter, and concrete sidewalk, and then replace these materials with the same or similar materials in the same location. The sidewalk will be improved to meet ADA accessibility requirements. The project will not result in an increase in the number of vehicle lanes or otherwise increase roadway capacity.
