However, the total amount of park space in the city does not correlate on <br /> a one-to-one ratio with the amount of land designated as Open Space in the Land Use <br /> Element. The City calculates park space based on land actively used and maintained as <br /> parkland or recreational space. Because the Project Site currently functions and will <br /> continue to function as an ancillary parking facility for the entirety of the Santa Ana Zoo, <br /> a facility categorized as a Specialty Park in the Open Space Element, the amount of <br /> parkland in the city will not change with the proposed changes of land use and zoning <br /> map designations. Additionally, implementation of the ZFMP ensures the Project Site <br /> continues to serve a public purpose by supporting zoo operations and preserves the <br /> property from private commercial development. <br /> Public Notification and Community Outreach <br /> Project notifications were posted, published, and mailed in accordance with City and State <br /> requirements. A Notice of Intent (NOI) to adopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration was <br /> published in the Orange County Register and mailed to property owners and occupants <br /> within a 2,000-foot notification radius, including properties located within 300 feet of the <br /> Project Site in the City of Tustin. The NOI invited public commenting from Tuesday, <br /> December 19, 2025, and concluded on Tuesday, January 13, 2026. Additionally, Tribal <br /> City Council 22 — 6 3/3/2026 <br />
