Induce substantial unplanned population growth in an area, <br />either directly (for example, by proposing new homes and <br />El <br />El <br />El <br />0 <br />businesses) or indirectly (for example, through extension of <br />roads or other infrastructure)? <br />b. Displace substantial numbers of existing people or housing, <br />necessitating the construction of replacement housing <br />El <br />El <br />N <br />El <br />elsewhere? <br />3.14.1 Existing Setting <br />The Project area is in Santa Ana. According to the 2012-2016 American Community Survey (ACS)," <br />there were 333,605 people and 71,000 households in Santa Ana. Based on SCAG 2012 adopted <br />growth estimates, the population of Santa Ana will reach 337,600 persons by 2020 and 336,700 <br />persons by 2035, and will reach 73,900 households by 2020 and 74,800 households by 2035.54 <br />3.14.2 Impact Analysis <br />a. Would the project induce substantial unplanned population growth in an area, either directly (for <br />example, by proposing new homes and businesses) or indirectly (for example, through extension <br />of roads or other infrastructure)? <br />No Impact. The proposed Project would include roadway improvements. The proposed Project <br />would not result in direct population growth, as the use proposed is not residential and would not <br />contribute to permanent residency on site as it would replace the existing Fairview Street bridge <br />over the Santa Ana River, widening Fairview Street between 9th Street and 16th Street, and <br />restriping the north and south ends to match the existing condition in Santa Ana. The proposed <br />Project would not generate growth beyond that anticipated in the General Plan. Therefore, the <br />proposed Project would not directly or indirectly induce population growth, and no impacts would <br />occur. No mitigation is required. <br />sa The ACS is an ongoing survey conducted by the United States Census Bureau that provides data every <br />year, giving communities the current information they need to plan investments and services. Information <br />from the survey generates data that help determine how more than $400 billion in federal and State <br />funds are distributed each year. (Source: United States Census Bureau. 2019.
