Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
15303
Reasons for Exemption
The request is to install solar panels (accessory structures) and a 56-foot by 20-foot (1,120 square-feet) fuel canopy with 6 pumps. The construction and installation of small new structures, including accessory structures, is exempt under Section 15303. The proposed use is permitted by right in the underlying zone; therefore, it requires only design review—not a use permit. The intent of the Design Review Combining Zone (an overlay zone) is to regulate site development and aesthetics, not the type of use. Potential environmental impacts of the proposed use were already considered when the underlying zoning district was established.
