Government Code section 65852.2 (the Accessory Dwelling Unit Law), pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21080.17. The related amendments not specifically related to the Accessory Dwelling Unit Law are considered exempt from CEQA as there is no possibility of a significant impact on the environment, under Section 15061(b)(3), as described in the staff report; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission determined that the Zoning Ordinance Amendments would further the purposes of and appropriately implement the City of Redwood City General Plan, applicable provisions of the Redwood City Municipal Code, and the Redwood City Zoning Ordinance. NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF REDWOOD CITY, AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. The recitals set forth above are true and correct, and are hereby incorporated herein by this reference as if fully set forth in their entirety. Section 2. The Planning Commission hereby finds that the proposed Zoning Ordinance Amendments are in the public interest and consistent with the Redwood City General Plan. Section 3. This proposed Zoning Ordinance Amendments have been reviewed with respect to applicability of the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") and the State CEQA Guidelines (California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Sections 15000 et seq.). Adoption of an ordinance regarding accessory dwelling units in a single-family or multifamily residential zone to implement the provisions of Government Code is an action that is exempt from the provisions of CEQA under Public Resources Code Section 21080.17 and CEQA Guidelines Section 15282(h). The remaining amendments have been evaluated and found to not have an impact on the environment under CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3) as it can be seen with certainty that they will not have an impact on the environment, as described in the staff report. Section 4. The Planning Commission hereby recommends that the City Council of the City of Redwood City adopt the Zoning Ordinance Amendments as provided in Exhibit A, attached hereto and incorporated by reference, by adding text shown in underline (example) and deleting the text shown in strikeout (example). Wording in brackets ([example]) is informational only and is not to be included in the published ordinance. Section 5. This Resolution is effective upon its adoption.
