body
ENVIRONMENTAL
The proposed action was reviewed for consistency with the citywide Comprehensive Development Code in 1998. These standards were originally evaluated and implemented under the adopted Negative Declaration for implementation of the Comprehensive Development Code on October 28, 1997. These updates have been evaluated for consistency for the current "Project" proposal utilizing this Negative Declaration and the Murrieta General Plan Final FEIR and Subsequent SEIR in 2021 (SCH No. 2010111084), by the City of Murrieta, in accordance with Public Resources Code Section 21166 and California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)Guidelines Section 15162. Based on this evaluation, staff determined the project would not result in new impacts or changed circumstances that would require a new environmental document, and the previous environmental document adequately covers these modifications (Attachment 4).
