Reasons for Exemption
After reviewing the project and its setting, the Environmental Coordinator for the County of Tuolumne has determined that the project is exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15061(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 question may have a significant effect on the environment., the activity is not subject to CEQA. The General Plan Amendment and Zone Change is proposed to facilitate a Lot Line Adjustment to adjust property boundaries between two legal parcels. There would be no increase in the number of parcels or change in size of either parcel. there would not be a change in the development potential of either parcel or a change in allowable uses of either parcel. No development is proposed. The Agricultural Preserve Alteration would not change the net acreage of Preserve 164. The :AP zoning would further restrict uses on the parcel. None of the exceptions listed in Section 15300.2 apply to this project.
