Environmental Documents & Public Notices

The California Environmental Quality Act requires that a public agency consider, as part of the decision-making process, the potential significant environmental effects of "discretionary projects" that it undertakes, funds, or authorizes and to avoid or mitigate those impacts, if feasible. A "discretionary project" is a project which requires the exercise of judgement or deliberation when the public agency or body decides to approve or disapprove a particular activity. CEQA also requires disclosure of potential significant environmental effects of discretionary projects to the public, through the preparation of an Initial Study, Negative Declaration, Mitigated Negative Declaration or Environmental Impact Report.    

Below are current CEQA documents available for public review, as required under CEQA.
