The maximum amount of building area, residential density, and building height is listed to establish the maximum intensity for any individual development project.

General character. The description is not exhaustive and is intended to further clarify the purpose of each land use designation. The exact uses permitted in each land use category are subject to the regulations of the underlying zoning district, as described in the Santa Ana Municipal Code. 3. Parking areas. Standards for FAR exclude structured parking square footage. Height standards include structured parking, exceptfor parking areas that are semi -subterranean. 4. Mixed -use residential. Mixed -use development that includes both commercial and residential uses (e.g., residential on top of commercial or live -work units) are governed by both FAR and du/ac in terms of density/intensity. A project's FAR shall be calculated using all residential and nonresidential building square footage, except structure parking areas. Residential densities identified for Urban Neighborhood and District Center designations apply to residential units for the project. 5. Focus Area Interim Developmen�ds. Interm EYe—velop�tann ards >�been prepared (Appendix A). The purpose of the Interim Development Standards is to provide a mechanism to review development applications and ensure development projects are consistent with the vision of the general plan and focus areas. The Interim Development Standards provide framework for connecting the general plan land use designations for each focus area with the City's existing zoning ordinance, specific plan(s), and/or specific development(s) plan provisions in regards to the use and mixed -use development standards (i.e. density, building type, parking, open space, etc.). The Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 41-668 regarding Development Project Plan Approval and applications required pursuant to SB 330, as amended from time to time, apply to development projects applying the Interim Development Standards. Once the Development Code Update (Implementation Action Item 1.1) is adopted and/or new zoning is established, the Interim Development Standards shall become null and void.
