WHEREAS, on December 12, 2019, the property owner filed an application to amend the
Zoning Map for property at 95 Farrell Avenue to remove a Planned Unit Development (PUD) overlay
designation; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has received and considered the Zoning Map
Amendment, in accordance with the City of Gilroy Zoning Ordinance (Article LII), and the staff
report pertaining to the proposed Zoning Amendment file number Z 19-03; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing on February 6,
2020, at which time the Planning Commission received and considered written and oral public
testimony related to Zoning Amendment Z 19-03, and thereafter recommended that the City Council
approve said project; and
WHEREAS, review and approval of Zoning Amendment Z 19-03 is exempt from
environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") pursuant to the
provisions of Section 15061(b) (3) of the CEQA Guidelines, which states that a project is exempt
from CEQA when "[t]he activity is covered by the general rule that CEQA applies only to projects
which have the potential for causing a significant impact to the environment. Where it can be seen
with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on
the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA;" and

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Planning Commission of the City of Gilroy
