A decision of significance (a) is final--except for the possibility of appeal; or (b) is a substantive recommendation required by ordinance or other law to another decision-making body; or (c) has a generally lasting effect. Recommenda- tions of staff generally are not decisions of significance. If the decision of more than one decision-making body is necessary under applicable provisions of the Carlsbad Municipal Code for a final determination on a project, the decision-making body to first act on the project shall also approve or disapprove the negative declara- tion. If the first decision-making body disapproves the negative declaration, that action shall be final (Section 19.04.150 (b) ) . If the first decision-making body approves the negative declaration and the project will be reviewed by a subsequent decision-making body without the necessity for appeal, the subsequent decision- making body may, at the request of any interested party, conditionally approve or disapprove the negative declaration. This regulation implements and clarifies Sections 19.04.030(g); 19.04.040(g); 19.04.140 and 19.04.150 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code. It is necessary to insure that the first decision-making body reviewing a project according to city procedures also review and consider the environmental documents and make the determination required by the Carlsbad Environmental Protection Ordinance of 1980. d EXHIBIT I NOTICE OF PREPARATION Section 19.04.120 of the City of Carlsbad Environmental Protection Ordinance of 1980 and the decision of the California Supreme Court in Woodland Hills Residents Committee v.
