ENVIRONMENTAL
The request for landmark designation is categorically exempt from the
environmental review process, pursuant to Section 15308 (Class 8) of the
California Environmental Quality Act, which exempts actions taken by
regulatory agencies, as authorized by state or local ordinance; to assure the
maintenance, restoration, enhancement, or protection of the environment
where the regulatory process involves procedures for protection of the
environment. Whittier Municipal Code Section 18.84.050 enables landmark
designation to protect and enhance a historic resource.
