This Class 3 exemption allows small construction projects or buildings in urban areas up to 10,000 square feet in size, not involving the use of significant amount of hazardous substances where all necessary public services and facilities are available. The cumulative impact of this project will not be significant as the use will be complimentary with the nearby commercial uses in the area.
