Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Other
Type, Section or Code
15061(b)(3)
Reasons for Exemption
This Ordinance is not a “project” under CEQA pursuant to Title 14 California Code of Regulations, Section 15378, because it will not cause a direct (or reasonably foreseeable indirect) physical environmental change, but even assuming arguendo that the action is a “project” under CEQA, it is exempt from CEQA pursuant to 15061(b)(3) in that the amendments involve general policy and procedure making, and it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the amendments will have a significant effect on the environment. The following are the specific revisions within the Municipal Code: Amending Chapter 2.68 (Special Elections) – Section 2.68.040 (City Parks Maintenance); Adding Chapter 5.45 (Shopping Cart Management) to Title 5 (Business Taxes, Licenses, and Regulations); Amending Chapter 8.25 (Landing Of Aircraft) – Section 8.25.020 (Landing of Aircraft); Amending Chapter 8.26 (City Parks and Recreation Facility Regulations) – Section 8.26.030 (Group Use of Parks); Amending Chapter 8.63 (Camping Regulations) – Section 8.63.060 (Enforcement); Amending Chapter 14.20 (Definitions) – Section 14.20.100 (Uniform Swimming Pool, Spa and Hot Tub Code Definitions); Amending Chapter 17.20 (General Property and Use Standards) – Section 17.20.040 (Development/Design Considerations); Repealing and Replacing Chapter 17.32 (Wireless Communication Facilities); Amending Chapter 17.34 (Introduction) of Division IV (Permits and Review) – Section 17.34.010 (Introduction); and Amending Chapter 17.48 (Conditional Use Permits) – Section 17.48.045 (Minor Conditional Use Permits).
