City of Santa Ana impacts of the Approved Project on transportation/traffic would be substantially the same as those described in the 2012 MND for the Proposed Project. Implementation of a construction management plan as described in Mitigation Measure TR-1 of the 2012 MND would continue to be required for the Approved Project to reduce short-term construction traffic impacts to a less-than-significant level. Similarly, implementation of Mitigation Measure TR-2 would continue to be required to reduce potential hazard impacts related to the addition of the project driveway activities. Thus, the Approved Project is consistent with the analysis and mitigation measures contained in the 2012 MND, and no new significant or increased impacts will occur as the result of the mina' technical changes associated with the Approved Project. Utilities and Service Systems The Approved Project will not result in significant or increased impacts on utilities and service systems. The number of residential units (284 units), parking ratios, and recreational and open space amenities of the Project would not change under the Approved Project. Therefore, no changes in utility demands would occur. The 2012 MND concluded that impacts on utilities would be less than significant, which would be the same for the Approved Project. Summary of Findings Based on the environmental analysis, the Approved Project will not result in any new significant impacts that were not previously analyzed and adequately addressed in the 2012 MND, or change the severity of the potential impacts identified in the 2012 MND. The layout modifications and the slight increase in proposed vacant land compared to the Proposed Project are minor technical changes, and none of the conditions set forth in Section 15162 of the CEQA Guidelines which would otherwise require preparation of a subsequent negative declaration or Environmental Impact Report are met as the result of the Approved Project As demonstrated by this Addendum: • The Approved Project does not constitute substantial changes which will require major revisions of the previous mitigated negative declaration due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; • The Approved Project does not constitute substantial changes with respect to the circumstances under which the Project is undertaken which will require major revisions of the previous mitigated negative declaration due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in tine severity of previously identified significant effects; and • The Approved Project does not constitute new information of substantial importance that show that the Project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the previous mitigated negative declaration or that the previously examined significant effects will be substantially more severe than shown in the previous mitigated negative declaration. Therefore, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Sections 15162 and 15164, the 2012 MND and this Addendum are appropriate to analyze the potential environmental effects of the Approved Project. Considered together, the 2012 MND and this Addendum satisfy the City s obligation under CEQA to evaluate and address the potential significant environmental impacts of the Project.
