Monterey Park
City Council
12.B. Consideration and possible introduction and first reading of an Ordinance amending
Monterey Park Municipal Code Chapters 1.10, 2.56, 4.20, and 4.30 to designate the
Planning Commission as the Board of Appeals to consider appeals arising from
application of the California Building Standards Code
It is recommended that the City Council consider:
1. Reading by title only, waiving further reading, and introducing an Ordinance
amending Monterey Park Municipal Code Chapters 1.10, 2.56, 4.20, and 4.30 to
designate the Planning Commission as the Board of Appeals to consider appeals
arising from application of the California Building Standards Code; and
2. Taking such additional, related, action that may be desirable.
CEQA (California Environmental Quality Act): The Ordinance is exempt from additional
review under the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code §§ 21000, et
seq., “CEQA”) and the regulations promulgated thereunder (14 California Code of
Regulations §§ 15000, et seq., the “CEQA Guidelines”) because it consists only of minor
revisions and clarifications to an existing code of construction-related regulations and
specification of procedures related thereto and will not have the effect of deleting or
substantially changing any regulatory standards or findings required therefor, and therefore
does not have the potential to cause significant effects on the environment.
