Rationale: The Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration for the Sky View Elementary School New Classroom Building Project - February 20, 2025.

Placeworks, Inc. (Environmental Consultant), has prepared an IS/MND for the Sky View Elementary School New Classroom Building Project to comply with Public Resources Code Section 21000 et. Seq., the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The CEQA Guidelines required that the IS/MND be circulated to the general public and public agencies to solicit comments on the proposed project. The IS/MND was circulated for 30-days beginning on February 20, 2025 and ending on March 21, 2025.

Two comment letters were received. The District and its Environmental Consultant reviewed the comments, prepared a Response to the Comments Memorandum, and found that none of the comments prompt recirculation of the IS/MND pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15073.5. The IS/MND and the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) prepared for the proposed project identified mitigation measures to reduce the potentially significant impacts on the environment to a less-than-significant level.
