Environmental Review And Documents
The City considers the potential effects of all discretionary projects based on the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Based on CEQA, many small projects are exempt from environmental review. This webpage provides environmental documents for projects that are not exempt, and required an Environmental Impact Report (EIR), Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) or Negative Declaration (ND) in recent years. Environmental documents from earlier years are available in the Planning Division of the Community Development Department.
Below is a brief description of the types of documents listed on this webpage.
A Negative Declaration (ND) is a document prepared when an initial study of the project finds that there would be no significant impacts from the project.
A Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) is a document prepared when an initial study of the project identifies potential impacts, but the project applicant revises the project or includes mitigation measures that reduces these impacts to less than significant levels.
An Environmental Impact Report (EIR) is a detailed document, normally prepared when an initial study of the project identifies significant impacts that cannot be clearly mitigated. The EIR describes and analyzes the impacts of a project and discusses ways to reduce or avoid the impacts. In some cases, the impacts may be unavoidable and a Statement of Overriding Considerations is necessary.
