public and private structures developed to the density allowed by the pre -zoning of the <br />City. The proposed annexation area is developed to the density allowed by the current <br />zoning or pre -zoning, with the extension of utility services having the capacity to serve <br />only the existing facilities. More specifically, the proposed annexation will consist of the <br />24.78-acre parcels of land in its entirety that includes private residential and commercial <br />structures as well as three vacant parcels of land that are located at the southwest <br />section of the annexation area. As the annexation area is developed to the density <br />allowed by both the current zoning of the County and the pre -zoning designations <br />proposed by the City, and no new utility services are proposed for the existing <br />structures within the annexation area as part of this project, the Class 19 exemption is <br />applicable to this project. The City Council has, as a result of its consideration and the <br />evidence presented at the hearings on this matter, determined that, as required <br />pursuant to CEQA, a categorical exemption adequately addresses the expected <br />environmental impacts of this project. On the basis of this review, the City Council finds <br />that there is no evidence from which it can be fairly argued that the project will have a <br />significant adverse effect on the environment therefore, it is categorically exempt from <br />the requirement for the preparation of environmental documents. Based on this <br />analysis, a Notice of Exemption for Environmental Review No. 2018-89 will be filed for <br />this project. <br />Section 3. Approvals.
