    (2)

    No parcel is reduced in size by more than thirty percent (30%) or enlarged by more than one hundred percent (100%);

    The adjustment is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act, (CEQA) pursuant to Section 25-70.2.

    (b)

    Applications for a lot line adjustment shall be processed in accordance with Section 25-70 et seq. of this chapter. Where the relocation of boundary lines is not "minor," the request shall be deemed a "parcel reconfiguration" and shall be processed in accordance with Section 25-11.5 of the Subdivision Ordinance.
