Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
Section 15301 (Existing Facilities) and 15303 (e) New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures
Reasons for Exemption
The City of San Diego conducted an environmental review that determined the project would not have the potential to cause a significant effect on the environment. The project meets the criteria set forth in CEQA Section 15301 which consists of the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing facilities (public or private), involving negligible or no expansion of existing or former use. Since the project consists of the permitting within the space of an existing facility and does not involve the expansion of an existing facility, this exemption is deemed appropriate for this project. Further, the project also meets the criteria set forth in CEQA Section 15303(e). Class 3 of CEQA Section 15303 consists of construction and location of limited numbers of new, small facilities or structures. This exemption includes but is not limited to: accessory (appurtenant) structures including garages, carports, patios, swimming pools, and fences. Since the project consists of accessory structures including fences this exemption was deemed appropriate. In addition, the project is located on a developed site and no environmental impacts would occur and none of the exceptions described in CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2 apply. The site is not included on any list compiled pursuant to Government Code Section 65962.5 for hazardous waste sites.
