Reasons for Exemption
The project qualifies for a Categorical Exemption (Class 3) pursuant to California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines Section 15303 (New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures) because the project consists of construction and location of one single-family residence on an existing lot in a residential land use category. The project will result in construction of an approximately 2,448 square-foot, two-story single-family residence with an attached 618 square-foot two-car garage, 494 square-foot rooftop deck, and a 99 square-foot second story balcony on a vacant lot. The project will be served by a new driveway from the rear alley accessed from Surf Avenue. The project will result in the disturbance of the entire 3,500 square-foot parcel for infrastructure improvements and appurtenances. The project also includes a request to establish and operate a residential vacation rental within the single-family residence. Drainage and access improvements are also included in the project. Additionally, a biological survey was conducted by Ecological Assets Management, LLC, on the site and resulted in negative findings for plant species and avoidance measures for the California Legless Lizard and Coast Horned Lizard (Oberhoff, December 14, 2023).
The project is not located in an area which may have an impact on an environmental recourse of hazardous or critical concern which is designated, precisely mapped and officially adopted by a federal, state or local agency. Further, there are no unusual circumstances surrounding the project. The proposed project is surrounded by other similarly developed lots within an urban developed area. The proposed project does not impact any scenic resources for any officially designated scenic highways. The location of the proposed project is not within any hazardous waste site compiled pursuant to Gov. Code § 65962.5. The proposed project does not involve or does not cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource.
