In addition, visual upgrades are proposed for the site. These improvements will not affect any coastal land use designations, coastal resource policies and/or shoreline access provisions. The proposal is in conformity with the public access and recreation policies of Chapter 3 of the Coastal Act in that the project will not impact any current or future public access ways or provisions. The project is consistent with the provisions of the Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone (Chapter 21.03 of the Zoning Ordinance) in that the project will adhere to the City’s Master Drainage Plan, Grading Ordinance, Storm Water Ordinance, Standard Urban Storm Water Mitigation Plan (SUSMP) and Jurisdictional Urban Runoff Management Program (KJRMP) to avoid increased urban run off, pollutants and soil erosion. No steep slopes or native vegetation are located on the subject property and the site is not located in an area prone to landslides, or susceptible to accelerated erosion, floods or liquefaction. That the Planning Director has determined that the project belongs to a class of projects that the State Secretary for Resources has found do not have a significant impact on the environment, and it is therefore categorically exempt from the requirement for the preparation of environmental documents pursuant to Section 15302 (c) (Class 2 Replace- ment or Reconstruction or existing utility systems and/or facilities involving negligible or no expansion of capacity) of the State CEQA Guidelines. In making this determination, the Planning Director has found that the exceptions listed in Section 15300.2 of the state CEQA Guidelines do not apply to this project.
