SECTION 2. CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT DETERMINATION.
Consideration and adoption of the Development Agreement has been determined to be
categorically exempt under the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act
(CEQA) under Class 1 (Existing Facilities). This class of projects has been determined not to
have a significant effect on the environment and is exempt from the provisions of CEQA. This
activity is also covered by the general rule that CEQA applies only to projects that have the
potential for causing a significant effect on the environment (Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA
Guidelines). It can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that this activity will have a
significant effect on the environment and it is not subject to CEQA.
SECTION 3. FINDINGS.
1. The Development Agreement is consistent with Chapter 15.45 of the Municipal Code
and California Government Code Section 65865.2. The Zoning Implementation and
Public Benefit Agreement specifies the permitted uses of the property the density or
intensity of use, and the duration of the Agreement. The occupancy level limits,
location requirements, and operational conditions contained in the Zoning Agreement
will protect the public health, safety and welfare.
2. The Development Agreement is consistent with the General Plan. The operational
conditions contained in the Zoning Implementation and Public Benefit Agreement will
minimize impacts to residential neighborhoods. The occupancy level limits and
dispersal requirements contained in the Zoning Agreement will assist in reducing the
over - concentration of recovery homes and sober living homes in residential areas.

amount of time due to the fact that it is located within a private
condominium complex with private streets and has shared common walls
