Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
15301 (Existing Facilities)
Reasons for Exemption
CUP No. 2024-015 and DA No. 2024-015 are categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Sections 15301 (Existing Facilities) and 15061(b)(3) (Common Sense Exemption) because the use involves tenant improvements to an existing commercial structure and no additional floor area is proposed, a negligible expansion of its existing or former commercial use. The use would comply with building, energy efficiency, and land use and development standard provisions. Thus, there is no possibility that the cannabis retail use storefront will have a significant effect on the environment.
