Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
15303 New Construction or Conversion of small Structures
Reasons for Exemption
The City of San Diego determined that the project would qualify to be categorically exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15303, New Construction or Conversion
of Small Structures; and where the exceptions listed in Section 15300.2 would not apply. The project meets the criteria set forth in CEQA Section 15303, which consists of construction and location of limited numbers of new small facilities or structures. The project proposes improvements and an add1t1on to the existing single-family residence and associated site improvements. Since CEQA Section 15303 allows for the construction of a single-family residence in urbanized areas and accessory (appurtenant) structures, this exemption was deemed appropriate. The site Is not
included on any list compiled pursuant to Government Code Section 65962.5 for hazardous waste sites.
