This project is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under a Section 15305(a) exemption.
ACTIONS FOR CONSIDERATION:
Staff recommends that the Director of Development Services take the following action:
I. Find that the project is exempt from environmental review under Section 15305(a) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). A Class 5 exception consists of minor alterations in land use
limitations in areas with an average slope of less than 20%, which do not result in any changes in land use or density, including but not limited to minor lot line adjustments, side yard, and set back variances not resulting in the creation of any new parcel. II. Approve the Lot Line Adjustment for Gateway Engineering, APNs 030-212-041 and 030-212-047, Project # LLA20-0012, subject to the following findings and Conditions of Approval in Exhibit A:
