Report to Redding City Council May 28,Z025 Re: 4.12(e)--Summary Vacation of a Public Service Easement(A-2025-00333) Page 2 The PSE can be determined to be excess and eligible for summary vacation per Streets and �Iighways Code 8333 as the facilities are now considered to be private. The summary vacation of the PSE is consistent with the General Plan as it will reduce maintenance needs of public facilities; encourage design consistent with the surroundings; and wi11 not preclude uses consistent with current zoning. Environmental Review Staff has reviewed the action and determined that the activity is categorically exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines, pursuant to Section 15305 (Minor Alterations in Land Use Limitations). The Class 5 exemption allows for minor alterations to land use limitations, as long as the average slope on site is less than 20 percent and would not result in any changes in land use or density. This action will not result in the creation of any new parcels, nor wi11 it change land use density. The existing General Plan and Zoning land use designations would remain as they currently exist and the average slope does not exceed 20 percent. In addition, the project area does not have significant values for wildlife habitat or other environmental resources. The action has no potential to have a significant impact on the environment. The Resolution has been approved as to form by the City Attorney.
