warehouse facility with ancillary retail and delivery services at
<br />this location will be compatible with the surrounding
<br />businesses as it supports the light industrial environment and
<br />may reduce vehicle trips made to establishments that offer
<br />similar products since residents would have the option to have
<br />their orders delivered. Moreover, its operations are compatible
<br />with the surrounding industrial businesses.
<br />Section 2. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)
<br />and the CEQA Guidelines, the project is categorically exempt from further review per
<br />Section 15301 (Class 1 — Existing Facilities). Class 1 exemption applies to the operation,
<br />repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing public or
<br />private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features, involving
<br />negligible or no expansion of existing or former use. The project proposes to allow the
<br />sale of alcoholic beverages for off -premise consumption and after-hours operations of a
<br />storage and warehouse facility with ancillary retail and delivery services within an existing
<br />light industrial building. As such, a Notice of Exemption, Environmental Review No. 2022-
<br />2, will be filed for this project.
