Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Statutory Exemption
Type, Section or Code
15061(b)(3) Common Sense
Reasons for Exemption
The proposed amendments to the TAFB Land Use Compatibility Plan ensure that the planned land uses remain compatible with Travis Air Force Base operations. They are intended to protect primarily the existing environment due to potential conflicts with low-altitude flying performed by military aircraft and FAA regulations as applied to other land uses. The proposed amendments more accurately describe existing general plan and zoning restrictions. The proposed amendments would not increase the density or intensity restrictions already in place in the general plan or zoning, as the area in the LAMZ is nearly all designated as agricultural land. No new height restrictions are proposed. Therefore, there is no possibility that the proposed amendments may have a significant effect on the environment and is exempt from CEQA under the common sense exemption. (CEQA Guidelines, tit. 14 Cal. Code of Regs. § 15061, subd. (b)(3).
