Council District(s) Affected: 3.
Proposed Actions:
An appeal of the environmental determination made for the 1606 Market Street Gas Station Development Project, which consists of a Neighborhood Development Permit (NDP), and a Planned Development Permit (PDP) for the expansion and upgrade of an existing previously conforming automobile service station located at 1606 Market Street in the Downtown Community Plan Area.
The Environmental Analysis Section of the Development Services Department determined that the project is statutorily exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15270 (Projects Which Are Disapproved). The scope of the subject hearing only includes the project’s environmental determination and not the project’s permits or other entitlements.
According to San Diego Municipal Code Section 112.0520(e) Power to Act on Appeal, the City Council shall consider the appeal and may:
(1) By a majority vote, deny the appeal and approve the environmental determination to statutorily exempt from CEQA the subject Neighborhood Development Permit (NDP), and Planned Development Permit (PDP) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15270; or
(2) By a majority vote, grant the appeal and set aside the environmental determination, in accordance with San Diego Municipal Code Section 112.0520(f).
Directing the City Attorney to prepare the appropriate Resolution(s) according to Section 40 of the City Charter.
If the City Council grants the appeal, the lower-decision maker's decision to approve the project shall be held in abeyance. The City Council shall retain jurisdiction to act on the revised environmental determination and associated project at a subsequent public hearing.
