Resolution No. 2020-30 <br />Page 3 of 8 <br />The granting of this variance is necessary in order for the <br />applicant to include a hotel development. Strict application of <br />the off-street parking standards would result in significant <br />changes to the site plan and floor plans and increase <br />construction costs, which would render the project infeasible. <br />3.That the granting of a variance will not be materially detrimental to <br />the public welfare or injurious to surrounding property. <br />The granting of the variance will not be detrimental to the <br />public or surrounding properties. Conditions of Approval are <br />included to require 24-hour valet parking service for the hotel <br />and to require reciprocal access and parking for 37 vehicles <br />within the adjacent parking structure. Additionally, the site <br />has been designed with a valet parking drop-off lane on <br />Sycamore Street immediately adjacent to the hotel lobby. A <br />parking analysis prepared by Urban Crossroads dated <br />September 9, 2020 notes that the Transit Zoning Code non- <br />residential off-street parking and Santa Ana Municipal Code <br />Section 41-1344 hotel off-street parking requirements are <br />higher than other nearby hotel-rich Orange County cities <br />(Anaheim, Costa Mesa and Buena Park). In addition, it is <br />expected that many patrons would use ride -sharing options <br />or public transportation; therefore, the proposed 83 parking <br />spaces will meet the demand of the 75 room hotel and will <br />not create impacts to the public or nearby properties. <br />4.That the granting of a variance will not adversely affect the General <br />Plan of the city. <br />The development of a hotel will support several goals and <br />policies of the General Plan, including Goals 2 and 3 of the <br />Economic Development Element to maintain and enhance <br />the diversity of the City’s economic base and increase Santa <br />Ana’s share of the regional economy. The hotel will increase <br />Santa Ana’s contribution to the hospitality and tourism sector <br />of the regional economy and will be subject to the City’s <br />Hotel Visitors’ Tax, generating revenue for the City. The <br />hotel will be the first in Downtown and can cater to <br />individuals doing business at the nearby government <br />facilities and office buildings. Additionally, the hotel will make <br />Downtown Santa Ana available as an over-night destination <br />to those visiting the Orange County area. The project also <br />supports Goals 1, 2, 3 and 4 of the Land Use Element to <br />encourage uses that promote a balance of land uses that <br />address basic community needs, promote land uses which
