Document Description
The proposed project is a renewal of an Easement Agreement (Agreement) to Cox Communications (Grantee) for their use of approximately 3,700 square feet of land area located adjacent to and within Embarcadero Marina Park South (along Convention Way and Marina Park Way) in the city of San Diego, California. The area proposed for use under this Agreement is currently and would continue to be used only and exclusively for the purpose of construction, operation, maintenance, repair, replacement, and inspection of cable television facilities and appurtenances. The Agreement further grants the Grantee and its authorized agents and contractors the right of ingress and egress to, from, and along said easement area via practical routes across the adjacent District lands.
It is anticipated that the Agreement would have a total term of approximately five (5) years. The Agreement may be terminated by the District as a matter of right and without cause at any time upon providing 180 days written notice to Grantee of such termination.

Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
CEQA Guidelines Section 15301 (Class 1)
Reasons for Exemption
The proposed project is determined to be Categorically Exempt pursuant to California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Section 15301 (Existing Facilities) and Section 3.a.(4) of the District’s Guidelines for Compliance with CEQA because it would consist of the renewal of a utility easement and would involve no expansion of use beyond that previously existing and would not result in a significant cumulative impact due to the continuation of the existing use. Section 3.a.(4) of the District’s CEQA Guidelines is as follows:
3.a. Existing Facilities (SG § 15301) (Class 1): Includes operation, repair, maintenance, or minor alteration of existing public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features, involving negligible or no expansion of use beyond that previously existing, including but not limited to:
(4) New and renewed short-term tenancy agreements which do not result in change in the existing use. This exemption does not apply to any new development associated with the activities of the tenant. This exception is also inapplicable if the cumulative impact of continuing the existing use or conditions in the same place, over time, is significant.
