CEQA COMPLIANCE STATEMENT
The McNeil Park Project (formerly known as SPARC project) is categorically exempt from environmental review pursuant to Section 15304 of the State CEQA Guidelines. Section 15304 exempts from environmental review "minor public or private alterations in the condition of land, water, and/or vegetation which do not involve removal of healthy, mature, scenic trees except for forestry and agricultural purposes." The Project would involve alteration of the site from an empty lot with demolition debris to a park, including grading, new landscaping, and minor trenching and backfilling where the surface is restored. The Project would not remove any mature trees; the trees within and adjacent to the Project site would be preserved in place.
The Public Works Department filed a Notice of Exemption (NOE), dated November 11, 2023, with the Contra Costa County Clerk and the State of California Office of Planning and Research.
