25-1636 3PLANNING CASE PR-2025-001788: A request for Planning Commission annual review of projects included in the fiscal year (FY) 2025/2026 Capital Improvement Program (CIP), and determination that the projects are consistent with General Plan 2025 pursuant to California Government Code Section 65401. The Community & Economic Development Department recommends that the City Planning Commission determine that the CIP consistency review is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), because the review is not considered a “project” as defined by Section 15378(b)(4).

The Community & Economic Development Department recommends that the City Planning Commission determine that this project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) (Common Sense) of the CEQA Guidelines, as it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility the project will have a significant effect on the environment.
