Zoning Administrator Roveri asked if the erosion during the rainy season exposed the clay area. Camp responded that the issue was with groundwater in the hillside that undermined the property and backyard. Public Comments None. Zoning Administrator Comments Roveri stated every action by a city of Monterey decision maker is required to go through the California Environmental Quality Act process (CEQA). Staff’s recommendation was that the project is exempt from CEQA, and the Staff report says the project was not within an archaeological sensitive location. Roveri stated that the lower half of this site is in an archaeologically sensitive location and therefore may not be exempt from CEQA. Roveri stated that the potential environmental impacts haven’t all been evaluated. Because these potential effects have not been studied, ZA cannot make a decision and tabled the item to a date uncertain. 4.
