Ordinance to revise Title 17, Zoning, of the County Code of Ordinances to correct clerical errors and improve clarity to simplify implementation.

In addition, some changes are needed as a result of the County's adoption of the 2024 Housing Element. The proposed revisions are intended to ensure clearer guidance, streamlined processes, and greater alignment with the objectives of the General Plan.

Type, Section or Code
15061(b)(3)
Reasons for Exemption
After reviewing the project and its setting, the Environmental Coordinator for the County of Tuolumne has determined that the project is categorically exempt from review under the California Environmental Quality act (CEQA), pursuant to Section 16051(b)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines because the activity is covered by the general rule that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in questions may have significant effect on the envionoment, the activity is no subject to CEQA. The proposed revisions are intended to clarify requirements and simplify implementation and will no result in changes in the environment. The changes also improve consistency within the document itself. None of the exceptions listed in Section 15300.2 apply to this project.
