Section 2. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act
<br />(CEQA), the project is categorically exempt from further review per Section 15301
<br />(Class 1 — Existing Facilities) of the CEQA Guidelines. The Class 1 exemption applies
<br />to the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration
<br />of existing private structures involving negligible or no expansion of the use. The
<br />existing 10,215-square foot building is within the C5 zone which allows for professional
<br />office uses. The proposed adult day care facility does not involve an expansion in use.
<br />As a result, Categorical Exemption, Environmental Review No. 2019-117 will be filed for
<br />this project.
