Reasons for Exemption
The project will have no significant effect on the environment. Applicant is officially ceasing the use of a vacant pre-existing mobilehome park as mobilehome park. Applicant is not proposing to utilize the site for any other use at this time. The project will result in the removal of mobilehome base pads and associated grading and forfeiting the ability to use the site as a mobilehome park without obtaining a use permit. The project will remain consistent with the applicable general plan designations and all general plan policies and zoning designation and regulations. There will be no expansion of the use. City received a Mobilehome Park Closure Impact Report and approved such report through Resolution No. 5170-2024 receiving such closure impact report for the Midway Mobile Home Park and finding no material contribution of shortage of housing opportunities and approval of closure, consistent with Government Code section §65863.7. This project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") pursuant to CEQA Guidelines§§ 15301, 15304, and 15061(b)(3). This project will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment; and it is covered by the general rule that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. It can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility this project may have a significant effect on the environment.
