Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
Infill Project, 15332
Reasons for Exemption
The Design and Development Department has determined that the project qualifies for a Categorical Exemption in CEQA Guidelines Section 15332, as an Infill project because it is consistent with the General Plan and Zoning designation, is less than 5 acres in size, and is in an urbanized and built-out area. The project site has no value as habitat for endangered, rare, or threatened species. This area has been previously disturbed and graded and consists of an open grass field, so it has no value for habitat. Approval of the project will not result in any significant effects relating to traffic, noise, or air quality since the community is a private club and membership is fixed so traffic volumes are not expected to change. A preliminary Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP) was received and approved by our Public Works Department. The WQMP included best management practices for water quality management of the site therefore there is not a significant impact on water quality. The site can be adequately served by all required utilities and public services which are currently being utilized by the main clubhouse.
