The City is also considering granting variances for setback and landscaping for the <br />expansions. The required setback is 15-feet and the proposed parking stricture would be constructed <br />within the 15-foot setback. The variance would allow for the expansions without having to bring <br />the entire 53 acres into compliance. The variance for landscaping would allow for various plant <br />groupings and clusters instead of the code required 1 planter for each 10 parking spaces throughout <br />all surface parking areas. <br />CEQA COMPLIANCE <br />An addendum EIR (14 Cal Code Reg 15164) is prepared under the CEQA when changes and <br />additions to a previously certified MR are necessary, but none of the conditions pursuant to a <br />subsequent EIR (14 Cal Code of Reg Section 15162) occur as follows: <br />■ where major revisions of the previous EIR result in substantial changes due to the <br />involvement of new significant environmental effects or an increased severity of <br />previously identified significant effects; <br />■ where substantial changes occur with respect to the circumstances under which the <br />project is undertaken which require major revisions of the previous EIR due to new <br />significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously <br />identified significant effects; or <br />■ new information of substantial importance which was not previously known at the time <br />the previous EIR was certified. <br />The proposed expansion would not require major revisions of the Fashion Square EIR <br />because no new significant environmental effects or increased severity of previously identified <br />environmental effects would occur. <br />No substantial changes in the circumstances related to this expansion have been identified. <br />Therefore, no major revisions to the previous EIR are necessary. <br />Since the certification of the Fashion Square EIR, no new information of substantial <br />importance has been identified. Eased on these findings, the City of Santa Ana, lead agency, has <br />determined that a subsequent EIR is not required. <br />Addendum ElRfor Main Place/Santa Ana(ER96.033) A7117, 7 99 <br />Page 4 IN Project No. 96.066 <br />75D-394 <br />
