Resolution No. 2025-29 <br />Page 5 of 11 <br />1. Meet the threshold criteria set forth in section 15192; provided that with respect to the <br />requirement in section15192(b) regarding community-level environmental review, <br />such review must be certified or adopted within five years of the date that the lead <br />agency deems the application for the project to be complete pursuant to Section <br />65943 of the Government Code. <br />2. Meet both of the following size criteria: <br />A. The site of the project is not more than four acres in total area. <br />B. The project does not include any single level building that exceeds 100,000 <br />square feet. <br />3. Meet both of the following requirements regarding location: <br />A. The project is a residential project on an infill site. <br />B. The project is within one-half mile of a major transit stop. <br />4. Meet both of the following requirements regarding number of units: <br />A. The project does not contain more than 100 residential units. <br />B. The project promotes higher density infill housing. The lead agency may <br />establish its own criteria for determining whether the project promotes higher <br />density infill housing except in either of the following two circumstances: <br />1) A project with a density of at least 20 units per acre is conclusively <br />presumed to promote higher density infill housing. <br />2) A project with a density of at least 10 units per acre and a density <br />greater than the average density of the residential properties within <br />1,500 feet shall be presumed to promote higher density infill housing <br />unless the preponderance of the evidence demonstrates otherwise. <br />The project site is not more than four acres in area, the Project does not include any <br />single level building exceeding 100,000 square feet, and the Project is an infill <br />development within one-half mile of a major transit stop. Moreover, the development <br />promotes higher density infill housing with at least 20 units per acre, does not contain <br />more than 100 residential units, and will provide two moderate income inclusionary <br />housing units to fulfill the inclusionary housing obligation pursuant to SAMC Sec. 41-1904. <br />Based on this analysis, a Notice of Exemption, Environmental Review No. 2024-15, will <br />be filed for this project. <br />Section 3. The Applicant shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold the City <br />and/or any of its officials, officers, employees, agents, departments, agencies, authorized <br />volunteers, and instrumentalities thereof, harmless from any and all claims, demands, <br />lawsuits, writs of mandamus, referendum, and other proceedings (whether legal, <br />equitable, declaratory, administrative or adjudicatory in nature), and alternative dispute <br />resolution procedures (including, but not limited to arbitrations, mediations, and such <br />other procedures), judgments, orders, and decisions (collectively “Actions”), brought <br />against the City and/or any of its officials, officers, employees, agents, departments, <br />agencies, and instrumentalities thereof, that challenge, attack, or seek to modify, set <br />aside, void, or annul, any action of, or any permit or approval issued by the City and/or <br />any of its officials, officers, employees, agents, departments, agencies, and <br />instrumentalities thereof (including actions approved by the voters of the City) for or <br />concerning the project, whether such Actions are brought under the Ralph M. Brown Act, <br />California Environmental Quality Act, the Planning and Zoning Law, the Subdivision Map
