Body
BACKGROUND & HISTORY:
The property located at 840 North Main Street is part of Parcel Map 37747, which subdivided 4.49 acres into four parcels to facilitate the development of a new commercial center. The project site is zoned Commercial Retail (CR) of the North Main Street Specific Plan (SP99-01) and is located west of Main Street, on the north side of Parkridge Avenue.
On April 21, 2021, the Raising Cane’s Restaurants, LLC, entered into a Precise Grading Agreement and posted securities with the City to commence construction of a new restaurant. The restaurant is constructed and has received the required Certificate of Occupancy from the City to operate.
ANALYSIS:
The site was precise graded in accordance with all City Standards and the approved grading plans. Therefore, it is appropriate to release the Grading and Erosion Control Securities associated with the property. Improvements associated with the commercial center were accepted by the City Council on June 1, 2022.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:
This action is exempt pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the Guidelines for the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), which states that a project is exempt from CEQA if the activity is covered by the commonsense exemption that CEQA applies only to projects that have the potential for causing a significant effect on 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. This action is to release grading securities posted for a previously approved project. There is no possibility that this action will have a significant effect on the environment. Therefore, no environmental analysis is required.
