SeebOR 2 Pursuant to 14 Calif. Code of Regs. ~ 15025(a) and ~ II B of the
City's Local CEQA Guidelines, staff has determined as follows. The application for Plan Review
98-3 is categorically exempt from review pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act
pursuant to 14 Calif Code of Regs ~ 15301 (Existing Uses), because it involves the negligible
expansion of an existing use, pursuant to ~ 15305 (Minor Alterations in Land Use Limitations),
because the proposal involves a minor alteration in a land use limitation and does not involve
either a property in excess of 20% slope or a change in land use or density, and finally, pursuant
