served by the proposed mono -eucalyptus. In addition, Goals
<br />3 and 5 require preservation of neighborhood character and
<br />integrity as well as mitigation of developments' impacts. The
<br />proposed mono -eucalyptus is designed to minimize visual
<br />impact on the area by implementing stealth design and using
<br />the prime location of the facility in relation to the existing
<br />mature trees on that side of the property to screen the
<br />facility. Further, Policy 2.2 encourages land uses that
<br />accommodate the City's needs for services. Enhancing a
<br />cell phone provider's coverage in the area enhances
<br />services that are readily available for business owners,
<br />workers, and residents in the immediate vicinity.
<br />Section 2. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)
<br />and the CEQA Guidelines, the project is categorically exempt pursuant to Section 15303

<br />to in -fill developments for the construction and location of limited numbers of new, small
<br />facilities or structures; the installation of small new equipment and facilities in small
<br />structures; and the conversion of existing small structures from one use to another. The
<br />project consists of the installation of a new wireless communications facility.
