resolution (Exhibit No. 1).
CEQA

environmental review under Public Resources Code Section 21083.3. The
proposed Plan complies with and implements policies of the General Plan, which
were evaluated in the General Plan EIR (SCH No. 2006011119) certified on July
25, 2006.
ITEM NO. 3 Group Homes (PA2008 -199)
SUMMARY: A Development Agreement between Sober Living By The Sea (SLBTS) and the City

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
