ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT This project is categorically exempt from environmental review pursuant to California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines, Section 15301, Existing Facilities, Class 1. CONCLUSION The project conforms to the R-1-6,500 zoning district regulations and satisfies the design review criteria. The proposed 64-square-foot first floor addition is innocuous and the 273-square-foot second floor addition has minimum impacts to the surrounding neighbors. As previously mentioned, the 2001 project is a vested project that neither staff nor the decision making body could rescind. PAP-108 (Appeal of PADR-1698) Planning Commission Page - 9 -
