Item VI 3 (Part 1 of 2) - Fast Auto Loan Appeal (PL140098 – AP) – Appeal of the Planning Division’s
determination that a “car title loan business” is most similar to a “check cashing business” as that land use classification is defined and used in the Concord Development Code including at Section 122-1580. The Planning Division’s determination applied, and
the Planning Commission’s decision will apply, to all car title loan businesses that wish to operate in the City of Concord, including Fast Auto Loans’ proposed site at 1545 Monument Boulevard, Concord CA. The General Plan designation is Commercial Mixed
Use; Zoning classification is CMU (Commercial Mixed Use); APN 128-280-041.
Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970, Public Resources Code §
21000, et seq., as amended and implementing State CEQA Guidelines, Title 14, Chapter
3 of the California Code of Regulations (collectively, “CEQA”), consideration of and
action on this appeal does not constitute a “project” within the meaning of Public
Resources Code Section 21065, 14 Cal Code Regs. Sections 15060(c)(2), 15060(c)(3), or
15378 because it has no potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the
environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment. Even if such activities did constitute a project under CEQA, staff believes the activities they fall within the “common sense” exemption set forth in 14 Cal Code Regs. Section 15061(b)(3), excluding projects where “it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment….” Project Planner: Carol Johnson @ (925) 671-3369.
