1Opinion of the Court
Opinion
REGAN, Acting P. J.
In this case1 we review the question of whether auto racing at a county fairground racetrack immediately adjacent to a residential area is categorically exempt from the California Environ*826mental Quality Act (CEQA) and whether a county fairgrounds is a state or local agency for the purposes of reporting under CEQA. We conclude the fairgrounds is a local agency under CEQA, and that its auto racing activity next to a residential area is not categorically exempt.
