1. The proposed amendments to the Implementing Zoning Ordinance Chapter 4,
Table 4.4 (Allowable Land Uses and Permit Requirements for Commercial,
Business Park, and Industrial Zones) are in general conformity with the Petaluma
General Plan 2025 in that the amendments implement the policies of the Petaluma
General Plan, as described in the July 11, 2017 Planning Commission staff report.

and welfare in that they ensure Petaluma's land use and zoning regulations are

Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), which states that
CEQA applies to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect
on the environment. The proposed amendments would not allow for — either by-

Therefore, it can be seen with certainty the proposed amendments would not
cause a significant effect on the environment;
